Text Nineteen Road Fifteen (39)
Before his sister set off, An Lingzhao had an in-depth conversation with his guard An Dongcheng, and he personally went to the guarded Dongyu Temple.
"I remember I asked you about being a security guard last time." An Ling said, "After so long, I don't know if you have any new plans."
The Master Dongcheng on the side lowered his head and said: "The subordinates have always wanted to be the guard of the prince Lingzhao, nothing else!"
"Really?" An Lingzhao's tone was not right. "Are you sure you didn't lie?"
Master Dongcheng didn't know what the prince wanted to say, but he seemed to feel that something was not good in his heart. Facing the prince’s questioning, he could only say: "The letter I received from You Country was really from a relative."
"Really? Wu Dongcheng intelligence agent?" An Lingzhao asked softly.
what? There was a big earthquake in Dongcheng. Prince Lingzhao actually knew his true identity!
"The intelligence agent Lian Chengyi who wrote to you has been pressing very hard recently!" An Lingzhao took out a letter from her body, "Say you don't get anything for King You, he will go to battle himself."
what! Lord Dongcheng saw that the letter in the hands of the prince was sent to him by Lian Chengyi. So I didn't receive it, but fell into the hands of the prince? What's the matter? He felt he was over, too failed. As a secret intelligence agent, being exposed by the other party is the biggest failure. Maybe... my own end is here. Whether in Youdian or Andian, he will be punished. Living crime is inevitable, capital crime is inevitable!
"You must be very surprised how this thing came to me." An Ling said, "Thanks to Shangquan. Last time she got rid of the rebellious messenger. It was sent by An You as a noble or above. The received letters will be temporarily received by the mailbox in the hall, and then handed over to Andian by special personnel for inspection, and finally distributed to the recipients. Master Dongcheng, because your letter is a bit suspicious, we opened it privately. Sorry, it’s only now. Here you are!" He handed the letter to the person in front of him.
Lord Dongcheng was stunned for a while, and did not reach out for a long time to take the letter from the prince. After a long time, he took it, lowered his head, and said, "I'm sorry, Prince Lingzhao!"
"Huh!" An Ling said, "You should say this to King You. Dongcheng Lord, how many times have you missed the opportunity to get the five beasts?! But fortunately, this is not your job, as You Temple intelligence officer, you told my mother all the information you obtained in Andian, including the true identity of Shangquan. You did your best, Lord Dongcheng!"
Lord Dongcheng and there is nothing to say.
"However, you are still an incompetent'subordinate'." An Ling said, "You have not done what your mother ordered you to do after three months. You are far less sincere than Master Lian Chengyi. Reasons You are distracted by emotions. Of course, everything is meant by Master Lian Chengyi." An Lingzhao stopped looking at the guard who had been silent, and continued: "But Master Dongcheng, look at it from the perspective of An Dian. , You are my mother’s eyes that are placed by my father’s side, and you are five malicious to us. This is also my mother’s intention. So last time, I have privately discussed with my mother about you, my mother... Forgive you! And give you a new task."
"What task?" Master Dongcheng was a little nervous.
"I understand very well the emotional relationship between my mother and father before. So I didn't tell my father about this." An Ling said, "You don't have to worry about the two sides fighting for the courage of the five beasts. Because your new task is to do it. The guard of Princess Shangquan!"
what? An Dongcheng never thought that he should have been punished, but he continued to be Andian's real guard!
"I don't care what you have done in Duoan Temple." Lingzhao said, "Your task now is to do your best to protect Princess Shangquan. No matter who is harassing the princess or fighting for the princess's courage, you have the right not to Kill them with approval, even if it is Lian Chengyi sent by the mother, even if the princess is the son of the senior brother Ling." Lingzhao added, "Especially the latter!"
Is this really a decision reached by Prince Lingzhao and Youwang? The relationship is too complicated! An Dongcheng felt a mess in his mind.
"Except when I approached the princess and asked about the daring of the five beasts, no one can." An Lingzhao gave the order, "Guardian of the East City, do you understand?"
Dongcheng finally recovered and nodded: "Yes, Prince Lingzhao!"
An Ling said: "So this time Shangquan and the son of Ling are looking for a junior, you must be highly vigilant. If Princess Shangquan suffers a little bit of harm, or if the five beasts are lost, I will personally punish you. You know I will. What to do to you, Master Dongcheng!"
"Yes." Master Lengcheng replied, "The subordinates do a little bit."
"As for the so-called emotional matters," Lingzhao ordered, "I hope you can use the sane mind of a guard to distinguish between public and private! Wu Dongcheng intelligence agent, you must be worthy of the prince's trust in you!"
"Subordinates understand!" Dongcheng replied.
…
"Catch it all in one net." In the darkness, King An ordered.
"Yes!" Mr. Xue Mingzhao said, "Princess Shangquan—"
"If you have to, deal with it together!" Wang An said softly.
Master Mingzhao nodded: "Subordinates obey!"
Five days later, Quan Yufei still did not appear in Yashanling. Xiao Shangquan and others decided to look for it in Xia Ling today, and Guan Xiahe also left with this daughter. Before leaving, Xiao Lian was gone, and everyone had to wait at the gate of the courtyard. Of course, Xiao Shangquan's escort also arrived at Yashanling early, hoping to escort the entire journey.
"Mom, mom!" Xiaolian finally came out, she rushed to her mother, "Mom!"
"Where have you been, I have to trouble everyone every time!" Guan Xiahe was troubled for her daughter.
Xiao Lian took her mother's hand and refused to go down the mountain, saying, "Mom, there is a hole in the old man's house!"
"Huh?" Guan Xiahe didn't understand, "What is a hole? Did you run around again?"
"There is a hole in the ground!" Xiaolian dragged her mother, "There is really a hole, mother, go and see it, it's deep. Brother Yufei must have fallen down accidentally. Mom!"
"Xiaolian—" Guan Xiahe wanted to scold her daughter.
"I have been here for more than ten years, and I haven't seen any underground holes." Ling Zhizi said.
"Yes." Xiaolian insisted, "It's in the innermost house, I opened it."
"The innermost house?" Shangquan thought, "Isn't the innermost house the master's treatment room? Sister Guan also said that the brother didn't see me after going to the treatment room to see me. Brother, let's go take a look."
"Impossible." Ling Zhizi said, "How can there be a hole under the Yashan Ridge!"
"Children can't lie." The Dongcheng master said humanely.
"That won't work!" Ling Zhizi said, "No one can enter without Master's permission. As for the child just entered, forget it!"
"Xiaolian, I didn't hear it!" Guan Xiahe taught her daughter, "You can't enter other people's houses casually in the future, it's impolite, you know?"
"But... But there is really a big hole inside. I didn't lie." Xiaolian said anxiously, "I'm still opening this now. I... I just want to play with that bottle. I didn't expect to open one below Hole. Mom, I almost fell."
"Let's take a look." Shangquan was also anxious, "Brother, anyway, Master Xialing is not there, he didn't know when we went in and saw it."
"No!" Ling Zhizi insisted on his principle, "This is the master's order!"
"Princess Shangquan." Dongcheng Lord said, "Xialing is looking for the younger brother, there is no clue, I suggest to find out here first."
"Yes!" Shangquan fully agreed, "It shouldn't be too late. Xiaolian, let's go over immediately!" After speaking, Shangquan immediately took the lead back to the treatment room.
"Shangquan?" Ling Zhizi couldn't stop the junior sister.
Shangquan took the guard straight to the treatment room. what? really! Under the table in the room, a big mouth opens inward like a floor. Shangquan was surprised. She looked at the senior with a depressed look: "See you are still so stubborn in the future!"
The son of Ling was also shocked by the "hole" in the ground, feeling that his head was wooden. I have lived here for more than ten years, and I really don’t know that there is such a "hole" in the treatment room. After everyone went down the stairs one after another, he suddenly realized that he would also follow in.
"Xiao Lian, we won't go in!" Guan Xiahe took the daughter who was going to go down, and said to the people below, "I will take care of Xiao Lian above, so I won't go down. You have to be careful!"
Lord Dongcheng, who was walking in the front, passed through the dim and narrow passage and finally entered a house full of medicine racks. Everyone was surprised by the amount of medicine in this house. The dazzling array of medicine bottles is dazzling. They bypassed all the medicine racks and found that there were only these medicines in the whole room, and they were all antidote.
"God, Master Jingyi is such a big antidote library!" Shangquan sighed, "Is there any disease that can hardly survive Master!"
"Although Master is hiding from us, it at least proves Master's innocence!" Ling Zhizi said, "Everyone should go up. I can assume that this hasn't happened!"
When Guan Xiahe saw that the group was coming up, he asked, and when he learned that it was an underground medicine storehouse, he also sighed: "Senior Ling is not only an emissary of propaganda of peace, but also a genius doctor who saves the dead and heals the wounded. We misunderstood. Him."
Xiao Shangquan is still worried about Junior Brother: "Since Junior Brother is not here, let's look for it down the mountain."
"I'm also taking Xiaolian to make another living." Guan Xiahe was about to say goodbye, "You go down from the south, we have to go down from the north, Xiaolian's aunt lives there. Everyone, see you if you have a chance!"
"Sister Guan is easy to go!" Shangquan said goodbye.
"Yeah. I hope I can find Little Brother Quan soon." Guan Xia Hola's daughter went to Beixia Ling.
"Mom, I also want to find Brother Yufei!" Xiao Lian asked as she walked.
"For adults, children, don't go around fooling around."...
Therefore, Xiao Shangquan and others continued to Nanxialing and searched along the road.
"You seem to listen to Senior Ling's words!" An Dongcheng walked behind the princess. To the princess's brother, in some respects, he has never been very optimistic.
Ling Zhizi knew that the other party was ridiculing himself for the matter just now, so he didn't bother to reply.
"I said, he is a peace ambassador who saves lives and heals the wounded. He must be right to listen to his admonitions." Dongcheng continued, "If he is an old fox with this mask, you—"
"Shut up!" Ling Zizi said, "You are not allowed to make such assumptions in the future."
"Yes." Shangquan also said, "Master Dongcheng, how can you assume Master like that."
"Humph." Dongcheng replied, "Why can he have so many antidote? If there is a solution, it will be poisonous. We have never heard of some poison, but he has an antidote. The cure for the poison of the heavens must be from Youguo. Master Ji Ren solved it. This has to make people suspect that there is a huge source of poison. Your master is also related to the source of poison."
"But..." Shangquan also felt that things were a bit weird, "but Sister Guan said that Master Ji Ren's family is very loyal to the family of officials and officials, and has a good reputation as an official. How could she be related to the source of the poison
"As far as I know, Master Ji Ren is indeed a good official image." Dongcheng Road, "but in order to mix well in this world, everyone has to wear a mask to cover their evil and shortcomings. Who knows every mask? What's the face of Hou Zhenye like."
"Really?" Shangquan smiled, "Then I will ask Master Dongcheng, what kind of'real face' is hidden behind your guard's face? Huh?"
cut! Dongcheng, who was questioned, was very unconvinced, but he had nothing to say.
"Okay, okay, I know!" Shangquan smiled, "It's also handsome, but the Dongcheng guard's face with a straight nose! Not bad!" She patted the guard on the shoulder and said to the senior, "You ( Ling) I don’t know how much I trust the guard that Lingzhao brother gave me!"
Master Dongcheng finally showed some satisfaction on his face, and with some pride, he looked at the son of Ling. cut! That guy pretended not to hear, and now he walked forward alone!
Shangquan whispered to the guard: "Don't get me wrong, I trust you entirely because of Brother Lingzhao. You fellow, I don't think I forgot the night in the secluded hall."
Just remember! Dongcheng looked at the princess walking briskly with a trace of comfort in his heart. I'm really afraid that you have forgotten that night and those words of mine.
Xiao Shangquan and others sought a rest by a lake in Cangshan Town. People who had moved away because of the farce of building a corn base have moved back one after another, and this area has gradually returned to life. Xiao Shangquan looked at the people who were resting at sunrise and sunset, and soon thought of Junior Brother. I don't know what the younger brother is doing. If something unexpected happens, why is there no trace of it? The whole thing is really weird.
The master has hidden such a big antidote library, even the brothers who have lived together for more than ten years don't know. One solution must be poisonous, and Master Dongcheng's words are not bad at all. So many antidote must be made according to the corresponding poison. Although Master also makes medicine. But the medicines used were all anti-disease medicines such as Zhitong San, and I have never seen Master specially prepare antidote for poisoning. Secret Poison, according to Sister Guan, was "given" by the a little bit of a humanoid Master Lian Chengyi, why did Master Ji Ren in the Youdian have an antidote? Could it be that our lives... Just like "Trumen's World", everything is under the control of someone? But how is it possible... If people are really being watched, then these people should know our actions well! There are two layers of masks between people. Although this is not desired, it cannot be discarded. This is the world!
Xiao Xiao Shangquan's gaze fell on an old man fishing by the lake. The angler with this straw hat looks like a 60-year-old. Under the sun, the old man's face glowed red. The beard was full of silence and waiting, and the long fishing rod carried this long patience to the extreme. A little leisurely shaking slightly at the fishing float. Shangquan saw that the brother had walked over to watch the old man fishing. Unexpectedly, my brother is also interested in fishing. Shangquan thought. Finally, when the old man saw the fishing float tremble suddenly, he immediately lifted the pole to get out of the water. Oh, what a big carp! The old man satisfactorily took the fish down and put it in the long-awaited wooden barrel next to it.
Only then did Ling Zhizi speak, "Excuse me, did the old man ever see a man with golden hair passing by just like an adult?"
The old man was not going to fish anymore. He put away his fishing tackle, and satisfactorily lifted the wooden barrel containing a fish, and replied, "Golden hair? I have seen it before."
"Really!" Xiao Shangquan asked immediately when he heard it, "Where did he go?"
"Five days ago, the young man passed by here. He has been going north to the area of Yashanling." The old man carried the bucket and wanted to leave.
"Go to Yashanling? Isn't that just going back!" Shang Quan felt strange.
"Five days ago, that is the day when I disappeared." Dongcheng said, "Could it be that something happened when I went back?"
"Probably not." Ling Zhizi said, "Five days ago, I had been collecting medicine in that area, and I didn't meet the younger brother who came down the mountain."
"Besides, Junior Brother has nothing to go down the mountain." Shangquan analyzed, "Even if he wants to go down, he will definitely say hello to Master."
"There are also many people with golden hair. I may not see the one you are looking for." The old man carried the barrel and left.
The son of Ling thought, but his thoughts were interrupted by the fish in the old man's barrel. The fish that was still alive just now died with its belly up in the blink of an eye. **
