A murmur that sounded painful and struggling floated out from the narrow alley.
"Help... help me..."
Cheng Yi paused for a moment, looked around again, and finally walked into the narrow alley in front of him.
Walking all the way to the deep place, as Cheng Yi's footsteps got closer, the crooning became more and more rapid, and there were rustling sounds in between.
Finally, Cheng Yi reached the deepest part of the narrow alley, and then, he saw a ragged figure crawling on the ground, wriggling forward.
Cheng Yi frowned, then walked up quickly and helped the man up.
At this time, the moonlight just fell into the narrow alley, and with the silver moonlight, Cheng Yi could clearly see the face of the person he helped up.
"Duke Qiao?!"
Cheng Yi was shocked, and Chai Shao, who heard his voice, raised his head with difficulty, exhausting all his strength to finally be able to meet his gaze.
"Cheng, General Cheng..."
Chai Shao was as angry as a thread, and after recognizing Cheng Yi, he plunged his head into the boundless darkness.
Seeing that Chai Shao fainted, Cheng Yi put him on his shoulders and flew up, and after a few moves, he returned to the General's Mansion.
That night, there was a rare scene of chaos in the General's Mansion.
It wasn't until he returned to the mansion and reached the light that Cheng Yi finally saw that there were dozens of hideous wounds on Chai Shao's body.
what happened?
When the doctor he summoned temporarily was treating Chai Shao's wound, Cheng Yi frowned in thought.
At this time, only half a month has passed since he saw Chai Shao last time. What happened in this half month?It actually made Chai Shao look like he is now.
"Husband."
Outside the room, Li Li's gentle voice sounded.
Cheng Yi came back to his senses, got up and walked out of the room, and saw Li Lizhi who was looking at him anxiously.
"Uncle, he..."
Li Li looked anxiously into the room, but only saw the back of the doctor who was bandaging Chai Shao's wound.
Cheng Yi comforted: "Don't worry, the doctor has already said that Duke Qiao will not be in danger of his life."
Only then did Li Lizhi feel relieved, and said: "Husband, it's getting late, why don't you go back to your room to rest, and then come to visit uncle tomorrow?"
Cheng Yi thought for a while, and thought Li Lizhi's words were justified, so he took Li Lizhi back to his residence.
……
The next day.
Perhaps it was because they had things on their minds. Although Cheng Yi and Li Lizhi went to bed very late, they opened their eyes before dawn.
After getting up, Cheng Yi went directly to Dongyuan where Chai Shao was in the guest room.
As soon as he stepped into Dongyuan, Cheng Yi saw that the doctor who should have taken Chai Shao all night, dragged his body exhausted, and tiptoed out of the room.
"How is Duke Qiao?"
This doctor is a military doctor in Cheng Yi's Shence Army, named Xu Kan. In addition to those abilities that are the same as those of other Shence Army officers and soldiers, he was also taught by Cheng Yi the ability to rejuvenate.
It was also because of this that Cheng Yi called someone to his house overnight last night.
"Returning to the general," Xu Kan bowed and said, "The Duke's body is mostly covered with skin wounds, only one on the chest hurts the lungs, but it's no longer a hindrance."
Cheng Yi took a deep breath and nodded.
"Okay, you go back to the camp, remember, this matter must not be spread."
Cheng Yi said to Xu Kan.
Xu Kan saluted Cheng Yi, and immediately left the General's Mansion.
He left very quickly, and in a short while he disappeared without a trace.
As soon as Cheng Yi opened the door and entered the guest room, he was met with a smell of blood mixed with herbs.
He frowned and stopped at the door for a moment before continuing to walk inside.
Not long after, Cheng Yi came to Chai Shao, just about to sit down and wait for him to wake up, when he saw that Chai Shao had slowly opened his eyes.
"Thank you, General Cheng, for saving your life..."
Chai Shao was still very weak.
Cheng Yi looked at Chai Shao with a solemn expression. Although Chai Shao voluntarily resigned from the position of General of the Right Guard because of Chai Lingwu's incident, he is still the dignified Duke of Qiao.
Who is it?
How dare you do such a thing to a prince at the foot of the majestic emperor, in the important place of capital?
It can be seen that Chai Shao was not just injured this time. Judging from his current weakness, he may have been imprisoned for a long time.
"My lord, what is going on here?"
Cheng Yi asked with a frown.
I thought that Chai Shao would be eager to tell himself, but it took him half a stick of incense to finish his words, but he didn't hear Chai Shao speak.
"My lord?"
Cheng Yi spoke again.
Chai Shao suddenly sighed heavily. Although he was full of despair, he still didn't know how to express what he had experienced during this period of time.
Seeing that Chai Shao remained silent, Cheng Yi didn't ask any more questions.
Anyway, right now he is busy with the Japanese ninja's entry into the capital, and Chai Shao's matter can indeed be postponed for the time being.
"If the Duke of the country doesn't want to say it, let's take care of your body first."
Cheng Yi stood up and said calmly.
"It's just that the Duke should understand a truth." Cheng Yi looked down at Chai Shao, and said expressionlessly, "The General's Mansion can protect you for a while, but it can't protect you forever."
Hearing Cheng Yi's words, Chai Shao's already bloodless face couldn't help turning pale.
He pursed his lips tightly and nodded slowly under Cheng Yi's gaze.
"Master Guo has to figure it out quickly, maybe I'm going to lead the army again soon."
Cheng Yi said again.
It would take him a few months to leave, if he didn't find out the injured person who even wanted to kill Chai Shao before he left, I'm afraid Chai Shao would have become a corpse when he came back.
……
Chang'an City is huge, if ordinary people want to find two ninjas in this huge city, it is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.
However, from the perspective of the Shence Army with clairvoyance and ears, finding two ninjas is not easy, but it is definitely not difficult.
At the beginning of the night, the Shence Army had only been searching secretly in Chang'an City for only one day, and they had already discovered the traces of the two ninjas.
"General, according to reports, two people with strange accents who have never shown their faces stayed in an inn called 'Xi Yun Lai' in Chaxi City this morning. Shan Dao has brought them there."
At the entrance of the West Market, Cheng Chusi stood beside Cheng Yi and reported.
"You should also keep an eye on it, don't let him kill someone, I want to live."
Cheng Yi said to Cheng Chusi.
"Yes!"
Cheng Chusi clasped his fists in response, and then quickly ran to the inn named "Xi Yunlai".
Chapter 80 What is the intention!
Xiyunlai Inn.
Qin Shandao stopped the soldiers who wanted to enter the inn with him, and looked up at the inn.
Seeing someone coming in, the waiter in the inn rushed up to greet him.
The waiter in this shop was born as a Kunlun slave. Not only is he dark complexioned, but he is also very tall, but he can speak Mandarin very fluently, comparable to any native of the Tang Dynasty.
"Guest officer, are you a top student or a hotel?"
Qin Shandao squinted at the tall, dark waiter, but did not answer, but just scanned the lobby on the first floor of the inn.
"Guest officer, you—"
Before the waiter in this store finished speaking, Qin Shandao grabbed the skirt of his clothes and brought him in front of him.
"Open your eyes and take a good look, who is the young master!"
Only then did the waiter realize that he was completely flustered, but before he could speak again, Qin Shandao covered his mouth.
"Don't shout, I'm asking you a few words!"
Qin Shandao whispered.
The shop clerk looked at Qin Shandao in panic, and nodded in panic.
Only then did Qin Shandao let go of the waiter in the shop, and then lowered his voice and asked, "Did someone behave strangely in your shop this morning?"
The waiter thought about it carefully, and then said: "If you go back to Captain Qin, there are indeed two strange people here."
Qin Shandao snorted coldly, and asked again: "Which guest room do they live in?"
The waiter glanced at the second floor, pointed to one of the guest rooms and replied, "Dizi No. [-] Room."
Qin Shandao nodded knowingly, and gestured to a dozen officers and soldiers of the Shence Army waiting outside the inn, and those people immediately dispersed and surrounded the entire inn.
"Lieutenant Qin, the little one thought about it before, those two strange people seemed to be from our Tang Dynasty, but the official words were not as good as the young one, it's really strange."
The shop waiter asked Qin Shandao while leading him up.
Qin Shandao glanced at him with a half-smile, and the waiter in the shop stood on his head, afraid to speak any more.
The two came to Dizi No. [-] room and stood still. Qin Shandao silently gave the waiter a wink, and the waiter immediately stepped forward knowingly.
"Two guest officers, the lunch in our inn has been prepared, do you two want to come out to eat?"
The waiter knocked on the door a few times, before waiting for the person inside to answer, he opened his mouth.
