Chapter 871 Locked on the target
Something happened to Miss Asui?
What could happen to her?
Lu Mingyu and Changsun Tao looked at each other.
A Liu walked closer and said, "Master, Princess, Ada was ordered by his master and followed Miss Asui to protect him. Today, Miss Asui ran away in anger. Seeing that Mr. Xie had not come, he simply went to make money and vent his anger."
"Justice Asui was passing by the alley just now, and suddenly the thick fog suddenly rose. Ada realized the danger and jumped into the thick fog. But the narrow alley was like an endless vast world. Ada couldn't find Asui. When the thick fog disappeared, only a bloody shoe was left. It was Miss Asui."
"Ada searched nearby for half an hour and could not find Miss Asui's figure, so he had to come back to report the news."
It’s no wonder that Ah Liu was so panicked. It was a very strange thing to fog at night, not to mention that Ah Da even entered the alley and finally saw that only one bloody shoe was left at the scene.
Lu Mingyu frowned, got up and went to the bookcase to get a book, searched through it, but found a strange explanation inside.
Things related to fog are legends of mirage in the Great Qin Dynasty.
And Izumo has countless.
There is a kind of monster in the Izumi. Wherever it passes, it is filled with monster fog. It feeds on women and favors the bodies of young and beautiful women. When it sees the target, it will release fog and kidnap people. Often, only some items with blood stains of the victim are left on the scene.
When Changsun Tao saw her searching for these strange letters of gods, he couldn't help but pinch her sarcastic face and said, "I've been stupid for three years in pregnancy. I'll let you look less at these strange things. Now I want to classify Nangong Suisui's disappearance as a legend of gods and monsters?"
Since meeting Miss Hikaru, Lu Mingyu has developed curiosity about Izumo, a country that is said to have eight million gods.
Driven by curiosity, she collected some notes about Izumo, but she accidentally became addicted to the world of the Hundred Ghosts Night Walk and became deeply fascinated by Izumo.
Hearing Changsun Tao's words, she silently put away the notes that recorded folk stories and said, "I don't want to explain the disappearance of Miss Asui with a bizarre legend. The legend originated from the truth. I just wanted to find out if Izumo has a weird way of creating thick fog."
"Zero." Changsun Tao called out, and after Ling's figure appeared, he ordered, "Go and protect Mr. Xie."
After Zero left, Changsun Tao continued to instruct Aliu, saying, "Don't act rashly, let Ada stay in the mansion, don't go to any stronghold, and don't walk around easily, and call Xue Wei here."
After Ah Liu left, Changsun Tao frowned and pondered for a long time, and said, "Yan Yan's first intuition, do you think this matter is related to Izumo?"
Lu Mingyu nodded: "The first intuition is yes, but when you think about it carefully, something is wrong. Izumo wants to attack Miss Asui, it will not stop early or late. Why is it going to be done at this time? There is something strange about it."
Lu Mingyu said: "I also have the ability to create fog. I can use some special medicine powder to do it. At that time, as long as I mix some fog and temporarily seal people's sense of smell, I can make the real one."
Changsun Tao said: "The ability of fog-making is completely possible for the Hidden Izumo to do it. On the surface, this seems to be what Hidden Izumo did, but I thought of another person."
Lu Mingyu and Changsun Tao spoke at the same time: "Yu Qian!"
Yes, Yu Qian has the medical book that his grandfather has worked hard all his life, so it is easy to create a mist.
And they were able to make such a judgment because they followed the clues before.
They had already suspected that the person behind King Wu was Yu Qian, and they were always paying attention to the movements of the two.
Then he waited for the opportunity and took the initiative to deal with Yu Qian after the remote mansion of King Wu, and then involved the serious crime of the King of Wu and Yu Qian colluding with the enemy, so that both of them could receive the punishment they deserved.
Recently, their people found that Yu Qian was so quiet that he was a bit abnormal, and they thought that Yu Qian was quietly trying to plan something.
After the incident with Asui, they immediately locked their eyes on him.
Perhaps it may be that he wants to provoke a conflict between Prince Qi's Mansion and Izumo.
Xue Wei came and greeted him.
Changsun Tao said: "When Ada comes back, what abnormality do you notice?"
Xue Wei said: "Back to the prince, when Ada came back, there was a smell on his body, and the smell was very familiar to him."
"In the past, when my subordinates worked in the fields, there was a kind of grass that would produce thick smoke when it burned. The smoke would smell this smell, so my subordinates would not smell it wrong."
"Because no one can burn that kind of grass in the capital, my subordinates immediately noticed it."
Changsun Tao nodded: "Okay, you go down first!"
After Xue Wei left, Lu Mingyu said, "I'll go to my second brother's place to have a look."
Changsun Tao said: "No, he is here."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Yun was pushed in. When there were only three people left in the room, and when the outside of the room was surrounded by secret guards, Xie Yun stood up from his wheelchair.
In fact, Xie Yun was indeed beaten by Nangong Suisui several times, but the number one master of the Qi Palace was not a porcelain doll, so he naturally would not break it with a slight touch, so he was completely pretending to break his hands and feet.
When Miss Rihe insisted that Xie Yun was her fiancé, they deliberately guarded against Izumo, so when they were beaten by Nangong Suisui, Xie Yun naturally "breaked"
Hands and legs.
"Zhaohua, Asui..."
Changsun Tao comforted: "We all know, don't worry first."
Lu Mingyu asked him: "Miss Asui is very skilled in martial arts. If there is something strange around her, she will definitely notice it. Recently, she told you that she had encountered something unusual?"
Xie Yun pinched her eyebrows: "Yuer, you know her too. She is rude and irritable. Since Miss Rihe appeared, she is like a volcano, and she explodes as soon as she says it. I can't say a few words about her. How can I know if she has ever encountered anything?"
Lu Mingyu gave him a blank look: "This is yours, and I don't care much about others. Since you are not satisfied with Miss Asui, I simply don't look for it. I guess the Nangong family shouldn't do anything to you."
"The most toxic woman's heart!" Xie Yun sat on the chair, turned on the fan and kept slapping the wind, and could tell that she was very anxious.
Lu Mingyu didn't understand his tuning of having to fan the air in the middle of winter, and he didn't mean to tease him, so he put the words on the topic.
"Zhaohua and I suspected that Yu Qian took Miss Asui away by vaining Izumo's name, but it has not been verified yet."
Changsun Tao said: "You came in just the right time. If you are sure that Yu Qian took action, you should go and save the person first."
Lu Mingyu said: "I'll bring Huihui first."
Lu Mingyu took out the short whistle and called Huihui.
Because Lu Mingyu was pregnant, he rarely contacted them.
Huihui and his master have been separated for a long time, but there is no joy of reunion after a long separation. He looked at Lu Mingyu reluctantly, as if he was blaming Lu Mingyu for disturbing it to accompany his wife.
Lu Mingyu patted Huihui's fat buttocks, and it twisted its chubby body and left.
Changsun Tao glanced at Xie Yun, Xie Yun nodded and followed Huihui.
Things have happened so frequently recently that the couple was so tired that they didn't have much rest.
Lu Mingyu sat at the table and placed a cup, and suddenly said, "Zhaohua, I have an idea."
The night was dark and the candles were lit in the house, but it felt dim. A basin of charcoal was burning vigorously, and the red light illuminated the small area.
Lu Mingyu's eyes were as bright as stars, and she met Changsun Tao's gaze of enquiry. Her beautiful eyes froze and said with a smile: "If it is truly confirmed that Miss Asui's disappearance is related to Yu Qian, and he wants to provoke a conflict with Izumo, then we can also use Izumo to suppress him."
Changsun Tao smiled knowingly: "We don't have time to wait for Xie Yun to return, I'll go now."
Lu Mingyu took off his cloak and put it on him: "Be careful of everything."
Changsun Tao nodded and led Ada and Xue Wei to the inn where Izumo was staying, and met Izumo's envoy.
This is not the first time they met, because the envoy in front of them also served as a mission to Daqin many years ago.
"His Highness King Qi." The envoy bowed and greeted him in a broken Qin language.
Miss Rihe sat behind her father, lowered her head, and asked softly in a gentle voice: "Your Highness is leaking, don't know what's up?"
Changsun Tao made a gesture, and a bloody shoe was presented to the envoy.
"This is the shoes of the fiancée of Xie Yun, the chief of the Qi Palace. Just an hour ago, she was kidnapped by the hermit. My king's people couldn't find it, so I could only come to find you."
As Miss Rihe reposted more and more, the envoy's face became quite ugly. He pressed his knees and bowed his head to salute: "Your Highness Qi, this is not something we do."
Miss Hikaru continued to explain: "Your Highness Qi, although the hermit art is unique to Izumo, many countries have gone to Izumo to learn. Your Highness cannot assert that it was done by Izumo because someone was kidnapped by the Hermit."
Changsun Tao chuckled gently, but his eyes were on the envoy: "Sir, I think that people are from the Izumi Tribulation, so I naturally have the relevant evidence. I did not report the evidence to the emperor, but brought two subordinates to ask for people, because of the past friendship."
Miss Rihe reposted Changsun Tao's words, and the envoy's expression became particularly ugly.
Changsun Tao stood up and said, "Three days, I will give you three days. If you don't hand over my people, you will take your people and leave the Qin Dynasty forever."
Miss Rihe nodded slightly: "Your Highness, this is a bit difficult."
Changsun Tao said indifferently: "You have any objections?"
Miss Hiroshi relayed his words, and the envoy pressed his hands on his legs again: "Your Highness, I will do my best."
Changsun Tao nodded slightly and left the inn.
When he returned to the Qi Palace, Changsun Tao did not rush to Zhizhiju, but took a shower carefully in the pond in Muwuju.
"Xue Wei, what abnormality was discovered?" Changsun Tao asked him.
Xue Wei thought about it carefully several times and said seriously: "I haven't found out that everything is normal in the inn."
Changsun Tao put a hot towel on his forehead: "I will let you listen to the heartbeat of the envoys and fathers, what do you hear?"
Xue Wei shook his head: "Prince, the father and daughter will only have a heartbeat for a moment when you ask them to hand over someone, which is a reaction that people will only have when they are nervous or excited."
Changsun Tao said: "Okay, I know. After I wash, you and Ada will also wash. Be sure to be more serious. Izumo has many evil techniques that we Daqin cannot understand. To be safe, bubble this natural hot spring water."
After taking a shower, Changsun Tao asked Ada to burn the clothes he had just worn, only wearing a bedding dress, and a fox fur covering it, went to Zhizhiju.
Lu Mingyu sat under the lamp reading a book. When he saw him coming back, his wet hair was still filled with a faint heat. He couldn't help but say angrily: "It's cold outside, and I'm not afraid of catching a cold."
Changsun Tao took off his cloak, pulled/detached the towel from the rack, and sat down to the stove to wipe his hair: "Yan Yan, I feel uncontrollable about Izumo's affairs and Xie Yun's affairs."
