Chapter 205 A small town along the river(1/2)
In the dead of night, three figures were galloping through the mountains and fields, heading towards the small town outside the mountains.
The medicinal power in Ye Jingtang's body has not yet been digested, and the energy is still surging, but the impact is not great. However, the heat in the body is getting worse. He doesn't even wear clothes while walking. When he encounters a stream, he jumps into it to wet his body, but just now
After walking a few steps ashore, all traces of water evaporated.
Because his body was too hot, Niaoniao refused to squat on his shoulders and just explored the way ahead. Sanniang and Ning'er helped him wipe the sweat from his face from time to time.
After walking more than 20 miles and about to leave the mountains and reach a nearby town, Ye Jingtang looked outside and saw a long line of fire in Hongshan Town, seven or eight miles away. It looked like a team of hundreds of people.
Walking holding a torch.
Pei Xiangjun stopped and stood on a high place to look through the binoculars:
"The Qilin Armor... looks like the Imperial Guards of the capital."
Ye Jingtang was quite surprised, but according to time, the official ship of the imperial court was about to arrive. He came forward, put his chin on Sanniang's shoulder, and looked through the telescope - there were more than 300 people in the town wearing black light armor.
There is a carriage in the middle of the elite Forbidden Army. No one can be seen in it, but it can be escorted by the Forbidden Army. There is a high probability that it is Prince Jing.
Ye Jingtang got the formula of 'Xue Hu Powder'. According to Yu Hu's instructions, the formula should be sent back to the capital as soon as possible to avoid unnecessary complications. He immediately said:
"Let's go and meet up there."
Luo Ning knew that it was safe to meet with the imperial troops, but Ye Jingtang looked red-faced now...
"Little thief, if you go to see Prince Jing now, you won't cause trouble, right?"
"Well……"
Ye Jingtang wiped the sweat from his forehead and felt a little:
"There are so many people in this town, so I can't possibly do anything to Prince Jing in the street. Master Xuanji is Prince Jing's master, and he might be here too. You guys should find an inn in the town to stay, and I'll come back as soon as I go."
Luo Ning saw that Ye Jingtang was not confused, so she didn't say much and just warned:
"Don't lure Master Xuanji here. If I'm discovered, I'll tell you that you are strong, and I'll be forced to help you..."
"I know, you go to the inn to clean up first..."
"spit!"
…
——
Gululu——
The wheels of the luxury carriage rolled through the old streets of the town along the river. There were green mountains and green waters on both sides of the town. The town was lined up along the mountain wall. There was only one street from south to north, and there were only a few lights between the houses.
Three hundred elite Imperial Guards, riding horses and holding torches, were walking on the streets; there were also some black police officers who were walking around the streets and alleys with their hounds. Although they were well prepared, they had not yet reached the foot of Mount Wu.
Already, I feel like I am tired of traveling and traveling, but people and horses are exhausted.
In the large carriage, Dongfang Liren was wearing a fat-headed dragon python robe, sitting upright with his back straight, looking at the mountains and fields in the distance. His eyes changed from the enthusiasm of the new official to the helplessness at present.
Arriving in Jianyang at dusk, I heard that officers and soldiers were suppressing bandits a hundred miles away, and Dongfang Liren was very close to it, so I wanted to bring a team over to participate.
As a result, when I came here I realized that Baili in Wuzhou was really different from Yunzhou.
The two states of Yunze and Yunze are both large plains. You can walk in a straight line and have flat roads wherever you go, so there is no problem in front of the gate in Baili.
But Wuzhou is different. As far as the eye can see, there are mountains. The official roads of villages and towns are built along the mountains. After walking around in twists and turns for two quarters of an hour, you may find that you have just reached the opposite side of the mountain.
Dongfang Liren was not tired sitting in the carriage, but the forbidden troops and horses that had just arrived outside were obviously unable to withstand such a forced march. Judging from the current situation, it would be difficult for her to go into the mountains to help with the search tonight, so she could only let the accompanying forbidden troops
Set up camp on the spot.
Xuanji, the real person, was also sitting in the carriage, wearing a white skirt and leaning on the beauty's couch. With her tall figure and unsullied temperament, she looked like a beautiful princess accompanying the prince on his expedition.
However, Xuanji's demeanor was not very dignified. She held up the side of her face with her hands and held a wine gourd in her right hand. She took a sip whenever she had something to do. Her cheeks were already a bit red, and her eyes looked like they were drunk but not drunk.
Dongfang Liren couldn't do anything about Master Jiu Mengzi. When he was checking the situation in the town, he suddenly heard a voice coming from the street outside:
"Chi Chi Chi~~"
The familiar chirping of birds came from far away, and then a big white ball swooped out from under the silver moon, crossed half the street in the blink of an eye, and landed next to the car window.
"Eh?!"
Dongfang Liren's eyes brightened slightly, he picked up the bird and looked back and forth:
"Why are you here? Where is the Night Terror Hall?"
Niaoniao was originally going to ask Sister Fat-Headed Snake for food, but he soon discovered that there seemed to be an unscrupulous sister next to him.
"grumble?"
The last time Niaoniao called the Night Terror Hall to rescue people, the demon sister ignored her and she really held a grudge in her heart. She turned her head and ignored him, and just pointed to the town's entrance with her wings.
Master Xuanji recognized that this was the battle pet of Ye Jingtang, and understood that Ye Jingtang was nearby. He was afraid of being embarrassed by bumping into him later, so he stood up and said:
"I'm going out for a walk as a teacher. You should summon your subordinates first."
Seeing this, Dongfang Liren naturally did not stop him. After the master left silently, he looked up at the entrance of the town and saw a man with disheveled hair holding a long gun. He was walking quickly as if he was fleeing. Along the way, he was still talking to Mr. Hei Yamen, whom he met.
Say hello.
When Dongfang Liren saw Ye Jingtang's "battle-scarred" appearance, he admired it but also felt a little distressed. He quickly said to the maid waiting outside the carriage:
"Quickly find a clean robe and prepare hot water..."
"Okay, Your Highness..."
——
The towns along the river are not big, with only a few hundred households from south to north.
Because King Jing had ordered not to disturb the people, the imperial troops who had come from afar were laying bunks on the street to rest. Autumn was about to come and the weather was cool, so there were no major problems except for sleeping uncomfortably.
Ye Jingtang walked through the street wearing a tattered robe and holding a dragon-screaming gun. Along the way, he said hello to the black police chief he knew, and then he arrived at the carriage in the center of the town without any hindrance.
The carriage stopped outside a nice inn. Some maids and guards were packing up the inn so that Prince Jing could stay temporarily. For safety reasons, it had to be cleared and inspected carefully. It had not been packed up yet, and Dongfang Liren was still in the carriage.
As soon as Ye Jingtang walked nearby, he saw the lights on in the car window. Benben was sitting at the window, feeding the birds with snacks. After seeing him, his eyes were obviously happy, but in order to maintain the Queen's posture,
Still deliberately waiting with a cold and unsmiling look.
Dang~
Ye Jingtang smashed the dragon-screaming gun on the ground and said with a smile:
"Your Highness, are you here so soon?"
"I just arrived in the afternoon. Come up."
After Dongfang Liren nodded in return, looking at Ye Jingtang's sweating profusely and flushed face, he said with slight confusion:
"Did you just have a fight?"
"I discovered King Wu's whereabouts in the afternoon, and fought and killed him for half the night. The officers and soldiers are chasing King Wu, and they shouldn't be able to escape..."
Ye Jingtang entered the carriage and sat down on the beauty's couch. After wiping the sweat from his face, he took out a yellowed booklet from his waistband and handed it to Dongfang Liren:
"This is a good thing I found today. There is a formula of 'Snow Lake Powder' in it, which can replace Snow Lake Flower. This thing is very important. Your Highness had better extract a copy now and arrange for someone to send it back to the capital..."
"Snow Lake San..."
Dongfang Liren took the prescription and looked at it. Knowing that it was a very important thing, he put it in his arms. Then he took the sweat towel, stood up and sat in front of the Night Terror Hall, helping to wipe the sweat from his forehead, with a majestic voice:
"I asked you to come here to assist in the investigation, but I didn't ask you to risk your life. Why are you so tired..."
The words stopped abruptly.
Night Terror Hall was dizzy due to restless energy and blood, which was normal at first, but when the attractive and attractive Da Benben sat down in front of him, a faint fragrance hit his face, and the flaming red lips were so close, his mind became a little distracted at that moment.
Seeing Li Ren helping to wipe away the sweat, Ye Jingtang subconsciously lowered his hand, and naturally fell on the plump part that he shouldn't have touched...
Dongfang Liren felt the hot touch coming from the back of his waist, his shoulders trembled slightly, he sat up straighter, his heroic eyes stared at Ye Jingtang in disbelief.
"..."
Ye Jingtang got a fierce look and realized that the place where he put his hand was wrong. He quickly raised his hand and patted the crumpled python robe skirt:
"Sorry, I was distracted..."
Bang bang~
?!
Dongfang Liren was shocked. They never expected that hundreds of forbidden troops outside, Ye Jingtang would dare to blatantly belittle her. What should I do if people see this?!
"Night Terror Hall!"
Dongfang Liren raised his eyebrows, grabbed Ye Jingtang's wrist, and said coldly:
"Are you out of your mind? Don't think that just because you have made some small achievements when you go out to do things, you can become arrogant and lawless. Do you really think that this king will not deal with you?"
Ye Jingtang also felt that he was a little lawless and raised his hand to explain:
"I took the wrong medicine and my mind is not clear. Your Highness, don't blame me..."
"Take the wrong medicine?"
Dongfang Liren looked at Ye Jingtang's cowardly appearance, and it seemed that he had taken the wrong medicine. She held Ye Jingtang's wrist:
To be continued...
