As the sky was getting brighter, in the ancient city of Gesang, Prince Cangmang got up early in the morning, only to find that Chu Mu and Ji Linlang had disappeared.
"His Royal Highness, I have searched all over the city, but there is no trace of the two of them."
The guards under him came to report.
Prince Cangmang's complexion darkened.
That's all for Ji Linlang, what's up with Chu Mu
"I don't know anything. Lin Lang disappeared last night."
Princess Fengfei hesitated.
"Not only the two of them disappeared, but Ye Lingyue and Di Xin also disappeared. I don't think the four of them are sneaking around doing something shady, right?"
Zhao Shaomen's subject is not good at speaking.
"Sect Master Zhao, please speak with respect, Ling Yue is not that kind of person."
Xiyun knew that Chu Mu, Ye Lingyue and others cooperated.
Last night, Chu Mu probably left the ancient city of Gesang with some of his rubbings, and Ji Linlang probably went to seek refuge with King Mobei.
But where did Lingyue and Dixin go
After Xiyun went back to the camp to rest last night, she didn't see Ye Lingyue.
But fortunately, Emperor Xin and Ye Lingyue have been inseparable for a while, so there should be no problem.
Just where did the two go
"His Royal Highness, the Mobei Army has withdrawn from the ancient city of Gesang."
When the prince and others were wondering, the guards under him suddenly reported that the high priest of the snake man led a group of people and left the boundary of the ancient city of Gesang.
When they left, they also removed all the checkpoints.
"How is this going?"
Prince Cangmang looked bewildered.
But overnight, what happened.
But at this time, Ye Lingyue and Di Xin didn't know anything about it.
The two of them were currently in the secret room of the City Lord's Mansion.
Last night, shortly after Chu Mu returned to the Mobei camp, Ye Lingyue learned that there was a secret room in the City Lord's Mansion, and searched for it. Fortunately, she quickly found the hidden secret room.
When the secret room opened, Di Xin Shan entered the secret room first.
After a while, he called Ye Lingyue to enter.
As soon as the secret room was opened, a soft light came out.
Ye Lingyue was slightly startled.
In the secret room, there is no open flame.
The soft light came from the walls of the secret room.
"It's star clam shell powder. The builders have incorporated part of the star clam powder into the wall."
Dixin touched the wall and said in a deep voice.
After hearing this, Ye Lingyue's eyes lit up.
"So this secret room is really related to the ancient times?"
"Ye Lingyue" has been in the Chu Mansion for many years, and she knows nothing but loves to read.
She has extensive knowledge and strong memorization, and knows a lot of ancient materials.
This kind of celestial beast called star clam has long been extinct.
Star clam powder was used for lighting nearly 10,000 years ago, and in the Kunlun period, star clam was used in large quantities.
"Let's take a look around and maybe we'll find something."
Emperor Xin nodded.
This secret room is about the size of a room.
There are a lot of bookshelves inside, and there is also a sand table of the city of Gesang.
It seems that this place should be the secret study of the city lord Gesang back then.
"All the books on the shelves have been taken away."
Dixin shook his head.
In the secret room, no one paid attention to the paper materials.
The high priest of the snake man is still very cautious. It may not be easy for Ye Lingyue to find some useful clues here.
"Look again, I don't believe it, there is nothing left here."
Ye Lingyue pondered.
So, she and Dixin searched carefully in the secret room.
This search took a full night.
When the two came back to their senses, they had already stayed in the secret room for several hours.
The two still got nothing.
"It's already dawn, that boy Chu Mu should be back soon."
Emperor Xin counted the time, Chu Mu should be back.
Once Chu Mu came back, the meaning of searching the secret room would be meaningless.
"Forget it, that's all we can do first, I hope Chu Mu can bring some useful news."
Seeing that the secret room was fruitless, Ye Lingyue was worried about Xi Yun, so she left the secret room with Emperor Xin.
As soon as the two appeared, Prince Cangmang called Amitabha directly.
"Both of you, you finally came back. I was so anxious that I almost turned the entire ancient city of Gesang upside down. Where are you going? Do you know that something big happened."
The appearance of Prince Cangmang calling the sky and the earth made Ye Lingyue laugh and cry.
"His Royal Highness, we just went around and looked for clues to the ancient city of Gesang. What happened?"
Ye Lingyue looked around and saw no trace of Chu Mu.
Ye Lingyue faintly felt that something was wrong.
It stands to reason that Chu Mu had been away from the city for several hours, and there was more than enough time to get the map.
"Early this morning, the Mobei King's army retreated, and the ancient city of Gesang was once again owned by the Cangmang Dynasty."
Prince Cangmang was full of smiles.
For Prince Cangmang, the Mobei people occupying Gesang City has always been considered a serious problem. Now that the Mobei people have withdrawn by themselves, Prince Cangmang is very happy.
idiot.
Ye Lingyue cast aside in her heart.
You are so proud that the high priest took away the map hidden in Kunlun and left you a ruined city.
How careless are you
But it was difficult for Ye Lingyue to say this in front of the prince.
She looked at Emperor Xin, and Emperor Xin did not express his opinion.
"It's a blessing, not a curse. A disaster can't be avoided. Where are Chu Mu and Ji Linlang?"
Emperor Xin also noticed that there were no traces of the two of them in the team.
"Those two people disappeared last night, I thought they were with you."
Prince Cangmang shook his head.
"We went out of the city to look for it. The high priest of the snake man suddenly withdrew. This incident is a bit unusual. Let's go to their camp to see if we can find some clues."
Ye Lingyue suggested immediately.
Prince Cangmang was also afraid that there would be a change, so he personally led a team of troops and left the city with Emperor Ye Lingyue and others.
They first arrived at the camp of the Mobei Army, and the tents had already been moved.
"It seems that the Mobei Army has really withdrawn."
Prince Cangmang said triumphantly after checking around.
Ye Lingyue didn't say much, but just searched around the camp.
When he was in a woodland near the place where he was going to operate, Emperor Xin stopped in his tracks.
He bent down, searched the woodland, and picked up a rusty sword.
"What is this sword?"
Ye Lingyue also noticed the sword.
"It's Chu Mu's sword, the rust on it is not quite right."
Emperor Xin had seen his sword.
Chu Mu's cultivation is not weak, and he is the young master of the Chu family, so the sword is not bad.
"It's corroded, it's not an ordinary rust."
Ye Lingyue frowned even more after checking.
"Chu Mu is afraid that something unexpected happened, the snake man retreated quickly, probably taking Chu Mu away."
Emperor Xin put away the sword when he saw it.
"Do you want to tell Prince Cangmang about this?"
Ye Lingyue felt a little uncomfortable.
It was because of her plan that Chu Mu was snatched away by the high priest of the snake man.
His going, I'm afraid it will be more or less ominous.
