"Ling Jiu, hasn't she come back yet?"
Pothos looked surprised."
Haven't come back yet."
Tan Yan'er's brows furrowed into Sichuan characters, and she asked Luluo with a puzzled expression: "What happened?"
”"The slave maid will go down the mountain in the evening......"
Luluo looked left and right, and lowered her voice to tell Tan Yan'er what had just happened.In the evening, Luluo and Ling Jiu went down the mountain with two guards to find Zhou Tong, which was not a long distance, but because Ling Jiu had been walking slowly, and the group had gone wrong twice in a row, it took nearly half an hour to find the cave where Zhou Tong lived.The stars are bright at night, but there is still a candle hanging at the entrance of the cave where Zhou Tong is hiding, and the candlelight is flickering, it can't illuminate much distance, it can only add to the gloomy feeling.When the pothos arrived at the entrance of the cave, Zhou Tong was filling in the soil and burying the corpse by candlelight, and the black corners of the corpse could be seen from the sand.Although Luluo was afraid, he took two soldiers behind him, and he was anxious to ask about General Tan's whereabouts, so Luluo had to bite his lip and cross the corpse pit and enter the cave.Unexpectedly, Vice General Zhou had woken up.Luthos first asked Zhou Tong a few words, but Zhou Tong was silent, and Luluo didn't get any useful information from him, and then Luluo asked Vice General Zhou a few words, but Vice General Zhou had just woken up from a coma, and his brain was not clear.The group had just left the cave and hadn't gone far before Ling Jiu said that she remembered something and had to go back and ask Zhou Tong in person.Although Luluo didn't want Lingjiu to run back to the cave alone, Lingjiu's attitude was very resolute, and Luluo couldn't screw her, so she had to respond.Ling Jiu asked the green pothos to go first with one soldier, and he returned to the cave with another soldier.The mountain road is muddy and difficult to walk, but fortunately, the night sky is very clear, and the pothos detours out of the path, goes on the main road of the mountain road, and keeps walking to the top of the mountain.About halfway through walking, she suddenly heard someone calling her behind her, and when she turned her head, it turned out to be Vice General Zhou.Speaking of this, Lu Pothos shuddered, tightened the black robe on her body, and looked at Tan Yan'er with a puzzled face: "This thing is really strange, when I saw Vice General Zhou in the cave, he was dying and couldn't walk."
But half an hour later, when I had walked so far into the mountains, he could suddenly appear behind me. ”Hearing what Luluo said, Tan Yan'er's face also changed, and she suspected in her heart that the deputy general was dead that week, and Luluo had seen a ghost.But the two of them were standing under the sleeve porch, surrounded by the vast night, Tan Yan'er really didn't want to say the word ghost.A gust of mountain wind blew, the shadows of the trees swayed, and in the canopy of a poplar tree not far from the two of them, there was a faint cold color against the moonlight, which was a full bowstring of arrows hidden in the branches of the trees, and the arrows were facing the pothos at the moment."
At that time, the slave maid thought that she had seen a ghost......
"Lu Luo stroked the hair around her ears, and her face was white and terrifying: "But later, Vice General Zhou stretched out his hand and threw the knife, and the knife broke through the air, directly stabbing the soldier next to the slave and maid through the chest."
The slave maid was scared stupid at the time, and she couldn't stand up with weak legs, and then she saw him walking straight towards the slave maid......
"Heavenly ......"
Tan Yan'er's eyes were round, her eyes looked the pothos up and down, and when she saw that the pothos was not injured, she asked again: "What about later." ”"Later, a man in black jumped out of nowhere, and he fought with Vice General Zhou......"
Green Pothos paused, and said: "The slave maid thought that she had to run to the top of the mountain quickly, so she forced herself to climb up, but her feet were really soft, and she stumbled and fell to the ground, slipped a little, and rolled down the side of the road into the grass, and the slave and maid fainted......
"Fainted?"
”Tan Yan'er's eyes widened."
Hmm......"
The green pothos was still afraid, she gathered the black robe again, and her voice was still trembling slightly: "After the slave woke up, only the soldier who was stabbed to death by the knife was left in that place, and the slave and maid were afraid, so they ran to the top of the mountain with a smoke, and when they ran here, they happened to meet the eldest lady." ”"This thing is really strange......"
Tan Yan'er frowned: "Okay, you go and rest first, I'll go and tell the prince about this, and let the prince send a few people down the mountain after dawn tomorrow, and go to the cave where Vice General Zhou is hiding to see what's going on." ”"Hmm" Luluo nodded: "Ming'er still has to send someone to find Lingjiu......"
Tan Yan'er and Luluo entered the sleeve workshop, and the cold light on the branches between the trees also disappeared, and a person who was hidden in a night suit jumped down from the tree and walked towards the back mountain.In the open space of the back mountain, two small bonfires were burned, and in the firelight, Zhou Tong was tied to a wooden stake, and not far from him, General Zhou was lying on the ground dying.The man in black walked into the clearing with a bow and arrow, and sat down in front of the campfire."
Master Su, it's hard work."
Ling Jiu walked out of nowhere, she was holding a whip in her hand, and blood was dripping from the whip: "The pothos is already dead?"
”"She's not dead."
The man in black ripped off the black hood on his head, revealing his face that was three points more beautiful than a woman, it was Su Yunsheng, he was arranging his hair, and asked Ling Jiu with a frown: "What did you ask?"
”"That old man's body is weak and can't be tortured, and I'm slowly playing with this little one."
Ling Jiu shook the whip in his hand.Su Yunsheng glanced at the whip, and disgust flashed in his eyes: "It's really annoying, you can handle it yourself, I'll go back first." ”Ling Jiu bowed to Su Yunsheng: "Ling Jiu also has to go back quickly, otherwise Tan Yan'er will be suspicious." ”"Okay, then tomorrow will be retried, anyway, I can't run."
Su Yunsheng looked impatient: "Trivial things also came to me, and the trouble is dead." ”Ling Jiu was a little embarrassed on his face.After Su Yunsheng left, Ling Jiu also left, and the two of them went out of the forest one after the other, and the bonfire crackled in the clearing in the empty forest."
How many guards are left?"
Outside the woods, Su Yunsheng looked at Ling Jiu with a serious face, and there was no longer half of the impatience on his face."
Two."
Ling Jiu replied with a deep body: "Two guards, there will not be so many that he will not have the confidence to escape, and there will be no less so that he will suspect that this is a trap. ”"Hmm."
Su Yunsheng nodded, his eyes were imperative: "Zhou Tong and Vice General Zhou are just small fish, but we must find out who gave the antidote to Vice General Zhou." ”"Yes."
Ling Jiu responded, turned around and entered the forest again.In the clearing in the forest, two fully armored guards are patrolling around the edge of the clearing, in the middle of the clearing is a wooden stake tied to Zhou Tong, two bonfires are next to each other on both sides of the wooden stake, and Zhou Tong is red when the fire burns."
When they left, they left two guards."
Vice General Zhou had woken up for some reason, and while quietly moving to Zhou Tong's side, he said to Zhou Tong in a low voice: "Before dawn is the time when they are the most sleepy, as long as they seize the opportunity, they can escape." ”
