Qing Ping Le · Double Songs

Chapter 21 21

A few stars took advantage of the chaos to get a glimpse of the clues, overlooking a massacre with corpses strewn across the field.Rong Ling didn't dare to act rashly at this moment, Ren Chuanyun sent a signal to summon Shi Junyan and Nan Qiang Bei Gun, the three of them rushed to this weird small courtyard with serious expressions, they gave each other slightly hesitant glances, and looked around vigilantly. Dare to relax.

Rong Ling was dressed in bright red, and gradually lost her color in the dense darkness, leaving only a faint figure like a homeless wandering soul. "There must be an entrance to the bottom." She said without retreating, "Find it."

No matter how doubtful the four of them were, they had no choice but to obey orders. They lowered their voices and said at the same time, "Yes". Once Lu's cowardice is discovered by herself, it will be replaced by greater arrogance, and her eyes can't help but be replaced by the arrogance of meeting ghosts and killing ghosts.

Shi Junyan groped for a moment and stopped at one place, and called, "There is a mechanism here."

Rong Ling walked over to examine it carefully, raised her hand and pushed lightly on the protruding stone, first there was a slight movement from the floor under her feet, and then a stone door slowly opened, with a faint light from inside accompanied by the sultry Humidity hits us.

Several people looked at each other silently as if they were making up their minds, Ren Chuanyun took a step forward and stepped down the first step of the stone ladder, Zhao Shouyi from the south spear followed, Su Xiaofei from the north stick, and Shi Junyan Dian from the north, they guarded Rong Ling in the middle.The passage of the stone ladder goes down all the way, but the distance between left and right is extremely narrow, only allowing one person to walk.

As one went deeper, the light that could be seen above became weaker and fainter, so that the eyes could not distinguish it. Everyone held their breaths and slowed down their steps, as if they were facing an enemy.Rong Ling glanced back at the Shimen that came in just now, the cool wind poured in along the Shimen, and blew the backs of everyone along the stone ladder.

Further down, they smelled the stench of corpses from the humid air, mixed with the usual moisture in the ground, so they each squeezed the weapons in their hands even tighter.It's ridiculous to say that they have been in the rivers and lakes for several years, and there are countless moments of life and death from knife-edge licking blood. People who have long ignored life and death will still be nervous and uneasy when the smell of death hits from all directions.

At the end of the dark stone staircase, there is a wooden door barely hanging in the door frame, and the light flows from the crack in the door.Ren Chuanyun didn't have time to think about it, kicked the door open with a bang, and the whole door broke and flew out. Dim light, unpleasant smell, and subtle sound of chains rushed over, Ren Chuanyun He exchanged glances with Zhao Shouyi and listened carefully for a moment, except for a clear and shallow breathing.

With no way to retreat, Ren Chuanyun lifted his foot and stepped in while the arrow was on the string.A small room was dark and cramped, the walls were polished to be smooth, and a soybean-sized oil lamp was burning on it, the light was dim, and the mottled blood stains on the wall could not be seen.There was a person sitting cross-legged on the only stone bed in the small room, with messy white hair, blurred face, and bony bones.

The four of them guarded Rong Ling behind them, and Rong Ling looked at the person facing him intently. The cheekbones on a sallow face were as high as hills, and there seemed to be no flesh and blood directly wrapped on the bones under the skin, unable to support the clothes on her body. The original clothes could not be seen, and the creases all over the body seemed to be carved into the bones by a knife.

The four people saw that the hands and neck of this man were locked by a thick iron chain, and the other end of the iron chain was nailed to the stone wall by four long nails. It seemed that he was trapped in his movements without any threat, so they just waited and watched.The two sides in the small room were in a strange stalemate, and the iron chain made regular sounds in the silence, still as if calling.

The person on the stone bed slowly opened his eyes, a pair of cloudy eyes with a faint green glow, looking towards the few people without focus.His eyes seemed to be covered by a layer of green mist. I don't know if he could really see the front clearly. I saw the corners of his mouth slowly raised and he grinned, revealing some black and yellow teeth. His smile was very strange like a picture. It is in disrepair and cannot be torn off.

"Five people." His high-pitched voice was like a sharp weapon cutting across the stone wall, and he laughed again after speaking, his voice was intermittent, as if he had been twisted into several pieces in one breath.

Rong Ling felt her scalp go numb for a while, she calmed down and asked, "Who are you?"

"Who am I?" He let out another low, thin laugh, "I don't remember." Every time he finished a sentence, there was a creepy laugh, and the chains around his neck kept echoing with his movements .

Ren Chuanyun whispered vigilantly, "Your Majesty, let's go."

Before the words fell to the ground, a gust of wind was felt, and the candles on the four walls swung towards Rong Ling and returned to normal, and the person on the stone bed was close to her eyes.Those cloudy eyes were still out of focus, but Rong Ling felt that he was staring at her, her breathing involuntarily slowed down, and the coolness spread.

"I can't go away." There was another burst of laughter.

If you get too close, you can smell his withered mouth full of stench, which is the rotten smell left by years of raw hair and drinking blood. Ren Chuanyun and Shi Junyan stabbed the long sword in their hands at the same time, his figure flashed with a fierce smile With the sound of two swords piercing the air, Ren Chuanyun and Shi Junyan exchanged glances and attacked, "South spear and north stick quickly lead Zun up."

They were only a few steps away from the door, and before Rong Ling lifted his foot, the man flashed over very quickly, a skinny arm pinched her neck with five fingers shaped like ghost claws, and the speed was so fast , South spears and north sticks are powerless to stop.Ren Chuanyun saw something bad happened, turned around and stabbed at his lower body, Shi Junyan stepped on the stone wall and used his strength to pierce his sky spirit cover with a sword.

The iron chains behind him suddenly exploded, one bounced off Ren Chuanyun's sword and caused him to back up again and again, one swept Shi Junyan from mid-air to the ground, blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, Rong Ling's throat was strangled, and the blood faded away.Seeing that the situation was not right, the south gun and the north stick swung towards his arm with a sweep and a chop. His cloudy eyes turned to focus on Zhao Shouyi, the south gun. A ghost claw grabbed the gun head, and a powerful internal force rushed over, knocking him out.

Rong Ling's throat was continuously tightened by the external force and her breathing was blocked. She pressed one hand on the pale yellow ghost claws around her neck, and quickly restrained her tension to save herself. Ren Chuanyun took advantage of this to directly grab the back of the opponent's head, Shi Junyan tried to kill him with one blow again, and the Bei stick cooperated with the three of them to sweep across the man's legs.

Before Rong Ling's hand touched the other party's robe, she was thrown out by a strong external force. She felt a piercing pain all over her body. Ren Chuanyun suddenly rushed towards her, grabbing the belt around her waist Throw her out again, "Zhao Shouyi, take your respect up." It turned out that Zhao Shouyi happened to fall by the door after being shocked just now.

Zhao Shouyi tried his best to pick up the injured Rong Ling, but the people inside were blocked by three people at the same time when they wanted to chase him. Zhao Shouyi quickly turned around and led Rong Ling back to the door.Although the person inside was locked by iron chains, he could move freely in the small room. As soon as he got out of this door, the iron chains would firmly trap him to death by the door, not a single cent more.

For the last time, Rong Ling saw the messy and gloomy monster baring its teeth and claws at the door like a trapped beast. She knew that other people would never have another chance to escape, and she experienced a life and death in just the blink of an eye. She was terrified. Shouldn't have taken the risk and nearly lost his life.In the small courtyard, the night was still pitch black and it was difficult to see five fingers, and the sound of hacking and killing in the distance had not stopped.

"Who?" Zhao Shouyi stood in front of Rong Ling and stared at the person coming in the darkness.

"The subordinate is Dong Ge beside Princess Anle." Dong Ge's voice sounded soft and soft, which can comfort people's hearts at the moment, "The princess ordered me to protect the lord, but the subordinate was too late to ask the lord, but was injured?" Dong Ge About to step forward, Zhao Shouyi remained motionless in front of Rong Ling.

Rong Ling patted Zhao Shouyi's shoulder lightly to indicate that he was fine, Zhao Shouyi then stepped aside, Rong Ling endured the pain and said, "She really has a heart."

"Can this subordinate check your superior's pulse?" Seeing Rong Ling stretching out his hand, Dongge placed his fingertips on her wrist, "Your superior suffered internal injuries, this is Qingyu powder to help recover from the injury."

Zhao Shouyi went through the medicine bottle and poured out one and took it first. After a little luck, he passed the medicine bottle to Rong Ling. After taking the medicine, Rong Ling asked, "Your master has other arrangements."

"The princess ordered Dongge to take over the honor and go back to the other courtyard to recuperate first."

"Just count her thoughtfulness." Rong Ling raised her foot to leave with Dong Ge, but Zhao Shouyi showed embarrassment and said, "If you don't want to die, then go, if you still want to keep this life Then leave with me."

"It's my subordinates who are incompetent." Zhao Shouyi knew in his heart that it was a fluke for the two of them to escape, and saving people was undoubtedly going to death. He turned around and cupped his fists at the place where he just escaped, "I, Zhao Shouyi, will always remember the kindness of saving lives. .”

Dong Ge led Rong Ling and Zhao Shouyi into the long-awaited carriage. The message from Princess Anle arrived two days ago, telling her to pay close attention to the movements of the Sword Trial Villa. She returned safely to another hospital for recuperation.Tonight, she searched for a long time but did not see any red clothes. When she lost her mind, she heard some movement in the abandoned courtyard to the north. Fortunately, the woman she was looking for was here.

Rong Ling's copper mask was shattered during the fight, and Ye Mingzhu in the carriage saw her face at this moment, clearly in sight, although her eyes were dimmed, they were still unmistakably agile, her nose was straight and her lips were slightly pursed The appearance is quite similar to Princess Anle, and Dong Ge secretly speculates about this person's identity.

"You write back and tell Anle that there is a mysterious expert in the Jianjian Villa, who is unstoppable by the joint efforts of Ren Chuanyun, Shi Junyan, and Nan Qiang Bei Gun. On the ghost claw, there was a section of nail with long joints, which was full of dirt and pinched his scalp, and it became numb for a while.

"Yes."

It was two days after the news of Jianjian Villa being slaughtered reached Chuncheng, Cheng Hao hurried back with Yu Daqian, Cheng Yiliu and others before he had time to finish the affairs of Shenzhenmen.Wrapped in a brocade jacket, Rong Cheng was basking in the rare sun under the eaves of the porch, holding the news from Dongge yesterday in his hand, without any emotion.

"Sister Huang is injured." Rong Che sat down beside her, with an unseen worry hidden in his indifferent expression.

Rong Cheng looked at her with a smile, "Miss Huang didn't hurt you in vain when she was a child." She handed her the tissue paper in her hand, "Who will be the expert in this sword-testing villa?"

"My cousin has eyeliner all over the place and I don't know who this is?"

Rong Cheng's eyes dimmed, and then recovered, "According to Cheng Hao's method, I will definitely be blamed for this. Instead of doing this, it is better to go to Jianjian Villa to find out the truth."

"Alright."

Rong Cheng raised his eyebrows lightly, "You go back to Beijing with Sister Huang." She said, "Cheng Hao will definitely pay close attention to the movement in Yongzhou City when he returns to Yongzhou City. Neither you nor I can rest assured that Sister Huang will not be escorted back to Beijing by someone trustworthy. "

"Xia Feng." Rong Che ordered in a calm voice, "Hurry up and return to Yongzhou City to protect the eldest princess and return to the capital."

"Ache."

"This is a grievance between me and them, and I should settle it myself. My cousin doesn't need to say that I have made up my mind."

Rong Cheng said helplessly, "Forget it, Xia Feng, Jing Yu and Chun Mian hurried back to Yongzhou City to escort the eldest princess back to Beijing."

"Young master." Jing Yu said, "If all three of us leave, you will put your young master in danger. You must keep someone close to you by your side, not to mention that Cheng Hao will attack you again, young master think twice."

"Qingtong is still there, don't worry." She said seriously, "The eldest princess is related to Jiangshan Sheji, you must do your best to escort her, and there must be no mistakes."

"What's the use of her staying by Young Master's side?" Chun Mian pointed at Bai Qingtong with no seriousness on his lips. Bai Qingtong didn't mind what he said, but was surprised that Rong Cheng would trust her so much.

Rong Che raised his eyes and glanced at Bai Qingtong lightly, and said, "Xiaofu returned to Yongzhou City quickly with the summer wind and rain, and Chun Mian stayed behind."

"Yes."

Rong Cheng seldom rides a horse unless she has to, not to mention that she just recovered from her injury and couldn't stand the toss. Xia Feng, Jing Yu, and Xiao Fu each bid farewell to their masters and hurried back to Yongzhou City.Rong Cheng and Rong Che took Bai Qingtong and Chun Mian back in the carriage as usual, walking back slowly, but much faster than when they came.

Xia Feng, Jing Yu and Xiao Fu traveled day and night. When they arrived outside Yongzhou City, it was inconvenient to reveal their whereabouts during the day, so they waited until dark to hide their figures with cloaks before riding into the city.The three dismounted outside the courtyard where Princess Anle stayed, Xia Feng knocked on the door knocker, and after a while, Dong Ge came to open the door and welcomed the three inside.

Cheng Hao designed to hunt down the people of Yan Luodian in Yongzhou City, and Yan Luodian lost too many masters before and after the battle of Jianjian Villa, so Rong Ling broke Yan Luodian into pieces and did not confront them head-on, saving his strength and waiting for an opportunity to leave the city .Yan Luodian is an important chess piece for her to restrain the world, and she cannot ruin the careful layout for many years for a moment of enthusiasm. As for the monsters in the sword-testing villa, I will leave it to Rong Cheng to solve.

The new wind whirled around under the eaves and then seeped into the house. The charcoal that was burning in the brazier could not withstand such teasing.Rong Ling leaned on the plan at hand, flexed her fingers and propped her jaw, and tapped the tea bowl in her hand with her two jade fingers interlaced. She was planning her own thoughts, but when Dong Ge brought the three of them in, she slightly raised her head and swept past the crowd.

"Xia Feng, meet the Eldest Princess."

"Jing Yu, meet the eldest princess."

"Xiaofu, meet the eldest princess."

Jishou Ceremony is a great ceremony to kowtow to your majesty, whether Rong Cheng or Rong Che, they have followed for many years, they have long stopped performing such a great ceremony, but tonight is different.

Hearing the three of them kowtow, Dong Ge hurriedly saluted, "Dong Ge doesn't know how the Eldest Princess respects you, so I ask the Eldest Princess to punish you for being negligent."

"An Le knows how to honor my elder sister, and the people around me called three of them at once." She put down the tea bowl in her hand, and said, "Get up." Seeing that the water in the tea cup was cold, Dong Ge replaced her with new tea. She said again, "Cheng Hao will definitely point all his spearheads at her this time, maybe she can handle it with only Chun Mian by his side?"

Jing Yu said, "The princess ordered us to take the eldest princess Anwei as the first job."

Rong Ling raised her eyebrows lightly, and smiled, "Is Wei Changdong going to Yongzhou City soon?"

Xiaofu replied, "You can enter the city in a few days."

"Send him Qingping's whereabouts." Seeing Xiaofu's distressed expression, she said again, "Remember, the safety of the two princesses is the most important thing."

Xiao Fu hurriedly kowtowed, "Yes, I will remember it in a small way."

"Dong Ge, go and tell Lord Chen that Princess Anle will drive back to Beijing tomorrow." She stood up, condescendingly, "It's late at night, let's all go down and rest first."

Chen Yu didn't dare to close his eyes all night. Princess Anle was originally scheduled to return to Beijing at the beginning of next month. This sudden delay of ten days made him uneasy. If he complained casually in front of him, his official career would be dimmed, and his wife would complain about him tossing and turning, so he had to put on his clothes and get out of bed and pace back and forth in the room non-stop.

Fortunately, he finally thought of a chance to make amends. He recruited his left and right sides, and after careful consideration, they finally sent a big gift to the princess who was about to leave overnight.When Rong Ling saw the whole box of jewelry and jade, she raised her brows lightly. Dong Ge laughed dumbfounded when she saw her expression. This Master Chen's flattery may have been slapped on the horse's leg.

After one night, after breakfast in the morning, Chen Yu waited respectfully to see the princess off outside the other courtyard. Rong Ling changed into the usual clothes of Princess Anle. There was a bit of resemblance, he thought this was the princess, he smiled obsequiously and went forward to salute, saying, "Chen Yu greets the princess."

"Master Chen." Rong Ling glanced lightly, "How much people's fat and people's cream did you search for in exchange for the box of gifts inside? The princess put the things in it for you. I hope you will work hard and love the people in the future, so that you can do it for yourself." , she stepped into the gorgeous carriage.

Chen Yu felt a thunderbolt hit the top of his head, and sat down on the ground. Seeing this, his left and right hurried forward to help him, but his limbs were limp and he couldn't lift them even after a long time of effort.His thoughts were over, his eyes were blurred, and he didn't even know when the Princess' guard of honor had turned across the long street.
