Tang riddles

Chapter 125

It was late at night, Zhang Ruohan had something on his mind, and couldn't sleep, leaning against the beauty not far from the bed, holding a hand stove with charcoal fire that was about to burn out, looking out of the half-open window, the plum tree in the courtyard .The window frame cuts out a partial picture, and the red lanterns hanging from the verandah reflect the newly sprouted leaves on the branches yellowish, as if they had been roasted and scorched by the fire.

This inexplicable thought has been lingering in her heart, lingering.She stared at such a monotonous scene, dazed for a while.Until she vaguely heard a muffled sound coming from the northwest direction, her heart skipped a beat, she couldn't help getting off the couch, put down the hand stove, put on her robe, and came to the window.She opened the window completely and looked in the direction of the sound.The sky there seemed to be reddened.

Zhang Ruohan's mouth was dry, his heart was tense, and he comforted himself, probably because he was depressed and confused.Just as she was about to go back to the couch to take a serious rest, suddenly, the sound of birds fluttering and chirping came from the sky, Zhang Ruohan was startled, and hurriedly walked out to the yard.Looking up to the sky, countless birds are soaring into the sky, singing and darting towards the northwest direction.

"What's the matter?" In the servant's room in the west wing of the east courtyard, Wu Ya was also woken up, rubbed his eyes, and opened the door sleepily.At a glance, I saw Zhang Ruohan standing in the yard, looking up at the sky.She also looked at it, and couldn't help being startled.

What's going on here?Why so many flying birds?

Wuya walked out of the room in a daze and surprise, came to Zhang Ruohan's side, raised his hand to grab her arm, and asked in a little panic:

"Sanniang... what's going on?"

Zhang Ruohan didn't answer.

Suddenly, she withdrew her gaze towards the sky, as if she had sensed something, and looked at the door of the main house that she had just walked out of. A tall and tall figure was staggering out of the darkness and came to the red corridor on the veranda. Under the light of the lantern.She was only wearing a thin underwear, her feet were bare, her long hair was all loose, and she was a bit hunched. She was holding on to the door frame with one hand, and she couldn't stand up straight after lying down for a long time.The red light of the lantern was dim, and the hair on her forehead covered half of her face, under which, there seemed to be a pair of golden and red pupils watching her quietly.

"Da Lang! Da Lang is awake?!" Wu Ya shook Zhang Ruohan's arm in surprise.

Zhang Ruohan's lips trembled, she didn't care to look at the vision of birds in the sky, she rushed forward, half-supporting and half-hugging the person who made her worry.

"Chishi? Are you awake?!" She brushed her hair away to look at her face, while reminding Wu Ya:

"Go and get the cloak of Mr. Lang."

"Hey!" Wu Ya rushed into the house immediately.

"Lotus maid... I... How long have I been asleep?" Shen Sui supported Zhang Ruohan's arm and asked in a hoarse voice.

"Six days, you have been in a coma for six days." Zhang Ruohan replied anxiously and relieved, with tears in his eyes.Then she looked carefully at Shen Sui's eyes, just now she seemed to see a golden-red light in her eyes, when she woke up from a dream that day, her eyes were like this.Zhang Ruohan was very concerned about what was going on.

But the golden-red light seemed to be an illusion caused by the light of the red lantern, and the familiar pair of jet-black pupils were still in front of him, as clear and clear as black gemstones, with a little confusion.

Such a pair of extremely beautiful eyes, after blinking a few times, regained a bit of clarity, Zhang Ruohan saw the familiar tenderness in her eyes looking at him, and felt a little guilty:

"I'm sorry, Lotus Maid, I must have made you worry..."

Zhang Ruohan pursed her lips and just shook her head.

Immediately, Shen Sui was attracted by the large flock of birds in the sky, and frowned.Suddenly, she raised her hand to her lips and whistled loudly.Among the flock of birds in the sky, several birds were attracted by the whistle, turned around, glide down, and landed around Shen Sui and Zhang Ruohan.

At that time, Wuya happened to come out with a cloak, and was shocked by the sight, it was the first time she saw the master of Qianyumen's bird training skills.

Zhang Ruohan took the cloak in her hand, put it on Shen Sui gently, and tied the belt.Shen Sui had already parked a squirrel in her hand, and she blew a crisp whistle to communicate with the squirrel.After a while, as soon as she raised her hand, the oriole flew away.

Zhang Ruohan saw her serious face.

"What did you say to the bird?" she asked.

"Lotus maid, where is the qin slave?" Shen Sui asked Zhang Ruohan without answering.Zhang Ruohan saw the dark clouds hidden in her eyes, and her heart tightened again.

"Qin Nu followed Zhang Gong into the palace overnight, saying that the murderer of the Xiyuan murder case was caught and asked her to go and participate in the interrogation." Zhang Ruohan replied, "What's wrong? Did something really happen?"

Shen Sui's complexion was so condensed that water dripped out, she rushed into the room and replied:

"I am very familiar with the habits of flying birds. Such a huge flock of birds, regardless of the species, flies in the same direction together. In the natural state, this kind of situation hardly exists. Unless, there is something attracting them The oriole told me that it heard the call of a large flock of birds in the northwest direction, so it echoed and flew away. It was a very rare chain reaction of frightened birds! The sound heard by the flock of birds is completely different from that of humans. Qin Although Nu does not have my talent for training birds, she also has the same physique as me. She can attract birds. Her voice cannot be recovered after being injured. But she has gained an ability because of this, if she is endangering In the state of screaming, it will make a sound that can only be heard by birds and even bats. Most people can't hear that kind of sound, and only a small number of people with very good hearing, and children can hear it And her screaming sound can trigger a riot in the flock of birds. Even I have only seen this ability of Qinnu twice. It was discovered by accident when Qinnu was almost in danger a few years ago, and since then After only trying it out once, she never dared to let her use this ability again, because it would make her throat worse.

Something must have happened to Qin Nu, otherwise no one would be able to cause such a large riot of birds! "

While talking, she had already found her snow knife and was about to go out with the knife.

"I'm going too!" Zhang Ruohan stood at the door, blocked Shen Sui's way, and said in a deep voice.She knew that Shen Sui was going to find Shen Jin in person, so she never asked Shen Sui where he planned to go.

"Lotus maid! You..." Shen Sui became anxious.

Zhang Ruohan interrupted her, and said with a serious expression: "You have just woken up, and your body has not fully recovered. Right now, Luoyang City is full of chaos and danger. You don't want to leave me at home to wait, I must go with you!"

Shen Sui pursed his lips, without too much hesitation, and finally said:

"Okay, but you must follow me closely, and you are not allowed to leave me for half a step!" As he spoke, he took Zhang Ruohan's hand and walked towards the gate of the house. They didn't even change their clothes and comb their hair, but just put on cloaks and cloaks, It just came out.

Zhang Ruohan knew that the situation was urgent, so he didn't pay much attention to it.He only asked Wu Ya to quickly wrap up a few clothes, blankets, and veils at the back, and got into the carriage, ready to leave the house.On the way, she met Yingniang who rushed over, she was surprised by Shen Sui's waking up, but the situation was urgent and she didn't have time to talk.Shen Sui directly pulled Yingniang up, and several people gathered in one place and set off together.

"Hu Tuo and Blue Robin went out with Qin Nu, haven't they come back?" Shen Sui asked in Wuya driving in front of the carriage.

Zhang Ruohan shook his head, while the frowning mother said anxiously:

"I didn't sleep tonight, and I have been in the medicine house, which is near the gate, and I haven't heard any movement. God, please don't worry. Qinnu's child... oh my god..." He was talking , Yingniang has already started to cry, she raises her hand to cover her face.

Shen Sui gritted his teeth, stretched out his hand, and comforted the girl's back.Zhang Ruohan clenched Tiaoniang's hand and bit her lower lip.

Suddenly there was a loud eagle cry, and Shen Sui suddenly raised his head.

"It's Bai Hao! There should be news from Huyan Zhuoma!" With that said, Shen Sui hurriedly got out of the carriage, leaning on the eaves and standing on the shaft, while the carriage was galloping, she raised her left arm high.Under the night, a fast eagle with white feathers and black feathers swooped down quickly and precisely, and firmly grabbed Shen Sui's arm.

Shen Sui took off the envelope in the letter box on its paw, opened it, and saw that his usually steady hand trembled.She suddenly crumpled the letter into a ball, clenched it in her fist, and gave instructions to Bai Hao half angry and half sad:

"Find out where they are, come back to me!"

Accompanied by a high-pitched eagle cry, Bai Hao took off again.

Shen Sui returned to the carriage, took a deep breath, and said in a calm tone as much as possible:

"The news that Huyan Zhuoma sent Liu Li, Bai Hao found out that I was there, so he gave it to me directly. Huyan said that they rushed to the north of the city and left the city through Hui'an Gate. Including the northernmost part of Jiacang City, the east section of Deyou Gate A big hole was blown out of the city wall, and when they arrived... they only found Qin Nu's wheelchair."

"Heh!" Liao Niang gasped, Zhang Ruohan tightly pursed her lips and stared at Shen Sui.

"Don't worry, Huyan Zhuoma has already personally led people to chase after him. Right now, Liu Li is still searching the city with some Qianyumen's men, in case he is caught by the enemy's trick. Let's rush to the Hui'an Gate now. Waiting for the news, Hutuo and Bluebird are waiting for us to meet up there." Shen Sui said immediately, her tone was firm, giving people a sense of tranquility.

"How did brother Huyan get out of the city? Has the curfew been broken?" Zhang Ruohan asked.

"No, it's Maomao. Huyan sent Tong Huai to find Maomao. The general of the Forbidden Army guarding Hui'an Gate tonight is Maomao's man. He will not block our way." Shen Sui explained.

Zhang Ruohan nodded, then asked:

"Where is Mao Mao? Such a big thing happened, where is she?"

"She's fine. She was in the south of Hanjiacang City when the incident happened. They fell into the scheme of the mastermind behind the scenes to divert the tiger away from the mountain. Now, she has left the city and is leading the troops to chase the prince back. Huyan and the others followed Mao Mao out of the city together. Yes, I heard that Pei Min was affected by the black fire/powder explosion, and besides... Zhang Gong was stabbed by the murderer."

Zhang Ruohan's heart skipped a beat.

"Don't worry, it's just an injury, and your life will be fine." Shen Sui comforted him hurriedly.

"Wait, prince? What's going on?" asked the bride in surprise.

"The crown prince was taken away by those murderers, probably Qin Nu was with those people." Shen Sui's voice finally revealed a little anxiety.

"Oh my God!" Tiaoniang only felt that the five thunders struck her and the crown prince was taken away. This is a major event that has never happened since the Tang Dynasty!Poor zither slave, unable to speak and move, so weak and delicate, but involved in such a big event, what a good thing!

An anxious and tense atmosphere filled the carriage, and when they arrived at the gate of Hui'an, they immediately saw Hutuo and Bluebird guarding the gate.Hu Tuo was full of anxiety, wandering in place like a trapped animal.The bluebird squatted on the ground, curled up into a ball, and when he raised his head, his face was covered with tears, and his eyes were already red and swollen like walnuts.They were waiting for Liu Li's people here, when they suddenly saw Shen Sui appearing, they were both surprised and happy, for a moment they were both sad and happy, and they all sobbed again.

"Don't cry! Hurry up and tell me how the situation is now?" Shen Sui pursed his lips, suppressing the pain in his heart, and said in a deep voice.

The bluebird was so out of breath from crying that he couldn't speak at all.Hu Tuo's mood was a little more stable. He took a deep breath and replied in a hoarse voice:

"The princess has already mentioned to us about the situation at that time. In Hanjiacang City, there are at least forty to fifty traitors, some are soldiers, some are coolies, and they have been lurking here for at least five or six years. At that time, the sage and the prince brought the murderer to Hanjiacang, intending to find out his accomplice. Later, when Erlang...heh...Erlang arrived, the murderer might be afraid that Erlang would expose their plot, so he acted first. Strong, made a false confession, dismissed the princess, General Yang and other generals of the forbidden army, and then suddenly started violently, intending to take the saint and the prince away. However, the saint was well protected, and with General Pei Min around, they failed. But the prince... He was taken away. Afterwards, Erlang chased after him, and what happened later, General Pei Min was injured by black fire/powder, and Erlang and the crown prince were just lost."

"Stupid! Cough cough cough..." Shen Sui was so angry that he couldn't catch his breath, and coughed violently.Zhang Ruohan and Yingniang hurriedly comforted her back.But their complexions were not good. This time, the sage and the crown prince did something extremely stupid. They pretended to be smart and acted on their own will. The crown prince was taken away by himself!Even Qin Nu was involved, they just felt that there was an evil fire burning in their hearts, and they didn't know where to vent it.

"Da Lang... There is one more thing. When the princess told me about it, her expression was a little off."

"What's the matter?"

"She asked me if there was a Dongying man named Yuan Qianhe beside my lady. She said that Qianhe became the prince's personal guard for some reason. After the kidnapping broke out, she disappeared along with her."

"What!" Shen Sui, Zhang Ruohan and Wu Ya were all taken aback.

The long night is long, the chaos is still there, and I don't know when it will end.

The author has something to say: the prince did a stupid thing, harming others and himself. He is already mediocre, and it is understandable that he owes his IQ because of his emotions.Xuanzong was also dizzy this time, mainly because Qin Nu was speechless, the saint and the crown prince were not as "superstitious" to her as they were to Shen Sui, and they often didn't believe in her ability very much.If you can communicate normally, things will not be like this.

The screaming sound of the piano slave is a high-frequency hertz sound, which is basically beyond the range of human hearing. Only people with good hearing and young people can hear a high-frequency hertz sound, which is close to ultrasonic waves.

Both sisters have some special abilities. After all, novels, we still need some artistic creation.
