After leaving the city, Yuwen Jianxue's right eyelid began to twitch wildly again.
She thought about what had just happened, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong.
There are too many doubts:
First, Hoopoe is Pei Ji’s confidant and has a quarrel with Wu Ma. How could he let Wu Ma off so easily? What’s more, judging from Hoopoe’s previous behavior, this person should have a retributive temper. He is clearly not like Wu Ma.
He said that when he was in trouble, Wu Ma refused to help, so don't blame him for feeling knotty in his heart. Wu Ma once mentioned this matter to Yuwen Jianxue.
Second, in the south gate of the city, Wu Ma wanted to help Hoopoe Sheng fake the murder scene. Hoopoe suddenly stopped him and then hurriedly asked Wu Ma to leave. What was he worried about? Logically speaking, Wu Ma should be given to the Turkic envoy.
A knife on the body, or a mark or something, would make it easier to blame the dancing horse afterwards.
Third, looking at the people lying on the ground, there are hundreds of names. The hoopoe's martial arts is not very good. So, how did he kill so many soldiers. Especially the Turkic envoy, Yuwen Jianxue had seen him before
The way he walks, his kung fu is definitely not weak either.
Fourth, and the strangest thing, when they were still at Wu Ma's house, not long after Hoopoe left, Yuwen Jianxue and Wu Ma also set off for the south gate. Even though they were disturbed by several waves of patrolmen, they were robbed again.
Two horses, excluding this time, the hoopoe would not have come to the south gate much earlier than the dancing horse. He would have no time to kill people at all!
Thinking of this, Yuwen Jianxue immediately shuddered, and his whole body suddenly became sober——
She couldn't wait to tell Wu Ma her doubts. After hearing this, Wu Ma nodded and praised: "You can think of these, it's amazing."
"These are not the key points," Yuwen Jianxue said: "We should think about what the truth is behind these doubts."
"Have no idea,"
At this critical juncture, Wu Ma seemed to be confused. He shook his head and said: "To be honest, my head is just a mess right now. I think you understand it quite well now. Why don't you give it to me?"
Let’s talk about it.”
This was the first time that Wu Ma asked Yuwen Jianxue for advice. Under such a tense situation, Yuwen Jianxue actually felt a little flattered.
She thought that those who were obsessed with the horse dancing authorities might not see it as clearly as she did, so she said decisively:
"The hoopoe doesn't have time to kill, so it's very possible...these soldiers are pretending to be dead. But it doesn't look like...those soldiers should be really dead, their bodies are very stiff, I can tell
.Perhaps, there is another possibility: these soldiers were not killed by Hoopoe, but died long ago and were placed at the south gate in advance.
The Turkic envoy is very likely alive - I took a quick glance when I passed by and saw that the envoy was lying on the ground. The wound on his back was not serious, but there was a lot of blood. This is a sign of fraud.
.Yes, the Turkic envoy must not be dead, he is just lying on the ground."
Wu Ma's eyes narrowed, "You mean, Hoopoe let us two go, not on a temporary basis."
"That must be it!"
Yuwen Jianxue raised his riding whip, "This is a well-designed conspiracy. Not only Hoopoe, but also Pei Ji probably knows about it, and even Pei Ji is the instigator behind the scenes."
Yuwen Jianxue looked back and thought about it. The process of her tracking the hoopoe during the day was also very suspicious. How could the hoopoe be so blatantly leading a few Turks through the streets? Even though they were wearing Han clothes, they looked like
He still looks like a Turk.
During the tracking process, Yuwen Jianxue suspected that the hoopoe was looking at her from the corner of his eye several times. Now that she thought about it, the hoopoe's behavior was clearly because she was afraid that she would lose him. Later, she and Wu Ma hid outside the courtyard of Wu Ma's house.
In the depression, for a moment, she seemed to feel the sinister gazes of Pei Ji and Hoopoe. That was not her illusion, but something that really happened.
The more Yuwen Jianxue thought about it, the clearer her thoughts became. She felt that she had never been so sensitive and rational in her life. She then analyzed the dancing horse:
"We assume that the Turkic envoy is really not dead. Then, he must be an insider, participant, and planner of this elaborate design, and a part of the conspiracy.
This is a bit strange. The Turks came to Jinyang City to capture you and take you back to the Turk camp. How could they collude with Pei Ji Hoopoe and let you go instead? What is his purpose?"
"That's not right!" Yuwen Jianxue's face darkened, and she tightened her grip on the riding crop. She felt like she had goosebumps all over her body, "They are not letting you go, but - they must not catch you in Jinyang City.
!”
The more Yuwen Jianxue thought about it, the more terrifying it became.
Wu Ma was a major contributor to Jinyang's army. Not to mention other things, he led more than a hundred night raiders, entered the Turkic camp in danger, and rescued the prisoners. It was clearly planned by Tang Gong, but Jinyang
Many of the counselors were involved in this matter, and everyone knew who planned and initiated it. The people who were rescued by the dancing horse also knew who brought them back from the Turkic camp. Those who followed the dancing horse
The soldiers who went deep into the Turkic tiger's den to rescue people had long spread the news about their heroic deeds.
Therefore, to catch the dancing horse is to cross the river and tear down the bridge, to kill the donkey, and to chill people's hearts.
Tang Gong's city is so deep that he would never do this. In other words, Tang Gong could give the dancing horse to the Turks, or even kill the dancing horse, but he would never let others know that he did it. But if the dancing horse
The horse died or was kidnapped in Jinyang City. Then, no matter who did it, they would all suspect Tang Gong - because the Turks clearly demanded that the dancing horses be handed over, they would let the princes of the Li family go.
In this way, the matter becomes very clear. For Duke Tang, the best way is to find ways to trick Wu Ma outside the city and let him fall into the trap of the Turks. That is, Wu Ma himself has something in his heart
The ghost could not trust Tang Gong. He was afraid of absconding and ran away overnight. He had nothing to do with Tang Gong.
This is no wonder. When they surrounded the yard of the dancing horse, Hoopoe just walked into the yard and walked out immediately. He was sure that the dancing horse was gone. The hoopoe had long known that Yuwen Jianxue had gone in to report the news.
Thinking of this, Yuwen Jianxue felt regretful in her heart - if she hadn't done anything wrong and let Wu Ma stay in Jinyang City, he would have been safe.
It's too late to say anything now, it's better to come up with countermeasures as soon as possible.
So, she told Wu Ma this analysis and said: "I'm sorry, I really didn't expect that things would turn out like this."
Wu Ma gave her a thumbs up: "Miss Axue, I want to impress you today. It's entirely possible that your analysis is true."
"How long have you been, and you are still saying these useless words?" Yuwen Jianxue was furious, "hurry up and find a way to deal with it."
"These details, every detail, are all your thoughts. It's up to you to do what you want."
Yuwen Jianxue really talked a lot today. With the analysis just now, her mind became more and more bright.
"The two of us are taking the official road now. Horse racing is fast on the official road, but if we go down this way, we will definitely run into the danger of the Turks. Why don't we change the route now and go around into the mountains and forests, where we still have a chance to escape.
When we are safe for the time being, we might as well inquire in secret to see if what happened tonight was Pei Ji's own initiative or Tang Gong's intention. If it is the former, we can also use my master's power to sneak back to Jinyang City and reveal the truth.
Tell Mr. Tang——"
"What if it's the latter?" Wu Ma turned sideways and tilted his head to look at her.
"The two of us can only wander around the world."
"Wandering around the world sounds good, so I'll do as you say." Wu Ma smiled, raised his whip, and headed northeast.
Yuwen Jianxue couldn't understand at all. How could this person still laugh when his butt was on fire? She frowned and followed, "I brought you to such a dangerous place, do you really not blame me?
"
"It's broken Jinyang, broken Taiyuan, there are so many twists and turns, I don't want to stay here for a long time."
"What about the Tang Pagoda? Our statues are still inside. What if they are destroyed by Duke Tang's order?"
"I'm leaving, and the next captain will be your master. Is it possible for him to do this?"
"That's not possible... Judging from my understanding of the master."
"That's okay. If the statue is damaged, stars will be deducted first. If there are not enough stars, people will be killed. The two of us have enough stars."
The two walked and talked, and unknowingly, the dancing horse took off the "dark side" of the cassock, and the bright colors returned to the sky and the earth.
The moon is setting, the night is quiet, two people, two horses, click, click, click, this scenery is completely inconsistent with the situation of escaping for one's life.
Yuwen Jianxue said, "What are you doing?"
"It takes a lot of mental energy to keep the cassock on. Besides, have you ever thought about a question..."
"Um?"
"Since Pei Ji and those Turks are willing to release me from Jinyang City, they don't worry about my [hidden side of the cassock] at all... In other words, they must have a way to find me."
"Then you didn't tell me earlier!" Yuwen Jianxue's heart beat wildly after hearing this, "I understand, they have a way to track our whereabouts!"
As she spoke, she looked down at her clothes and then at the galloping horses, "Could it be..."
"Don't think about it, it's already too late," Wu Ma said.
Yuwen Jianxue raised his head and saw a large group of black cavalry in the distance ahead. Although the leading general couldn't see his face clearly, he was clearly looking this way.
Yuwen Jianxue's heart plummeted to the bottom of the valley.
She didn't have time to think too much, and said to Wu Ma: "You go first, I'll hold on here. Their target is you, they won't do anything to me."
---Dividing line---
This plot may be a bit confusing, and some readers may not understand it. One Youshu.com reader even started criticizing it directly.
When I saw that comment, my bad mood really reached its peak.
I was thinking, why can’t readers give the author a little more patience? Is it the market, the times, or my personal writing style.
How this plot ends will be explained at the end of the volume.
I want to say that all the stories are carefully prepared by the author. No matter how they are written, the author has used all his strength. I hope readers can have more patience and read to the end. In any case, this volume is very interesting.
It's almost over.
Finally, I'm sorry, I put this paragraph in the paid content, I just want more people to see it.
