Chapter 537: The street sign that was tampered with
Passers-by pointed to the hillside where the trees fell, "This boulder was originally on the hillside, and it has always been supported by wooden stakes, maybe it has been a long time, and the wooden stakes have been corroded by rain or something, and they can't hold it, right?" ”
"Well, that's possible." Another passer-by answered, "If it hadn't suddenly rolled down, we would have forgotten." ”
"Fortunately, no one was injured ......"
"Yes, I heard that someone noticed that the ground shook and trees fell before, so I quickly reminded everyone to stay away!"
"Alas, so it's better to get down and dispose of it as soon as possible, so as not to really kill someone one day."
Lu Yunrong frowned, looking at the boulder that was almost one height in disbelief.
Why did Princess Chu also appear in Baiyun Temple today, and she fainted in the arms of Princess Wanchun, delaying her major event? Then, when she was going to take the King of Chu as a stepping stone, the boulder happened to roll down at this time?
Lu Yunrong felt that he was too weak-hearted, and felt that these things could not be explained by chance, but that someone deliberately did it......
However, when she was talking just now, there was no one around, how could they know what she was going to do?
Lu Yunrong shook his head and silently reminded himself not to think too much.
"Miss, what can I do?" Tao was helpless and anxious.
Lu Yunrong asked the coachman, "Is there any other way?" ”
The driver pointed to the side, "There is still this path to walk, but it will take half an hour more." ”
Lu Yunrong looked at the people in line, although there were not too many, but even if they squeezed through here, what about the next road?
Do you have to run home on two legs?
I don't know how many "half an hour" it will take.
She was in a hurry to go home, and nodded, "Then take this road." ”
The coachman obeyed the young lady's order, turned his horse's head, and headed for the path.
The path is winding and steep, Lu Yunrong was a little dizzy, almost vomited, and there were some forks in the road, fortunately, there were road signs, so that people would not get lost in the mountains and forests.
"How long is it left...... Lu Yunrong pressed his chest and asked with difficulty.
Ah Tao opened the curtain and asked the coachman, but the coachman looked confused and embarrassed, and hesitated for a long time without answering.
Ah Tao scolded: "What's the matter with you? Miss asks you something! ”
"......" the coachman curled his neck, licked his chapped lips, and whispered.
"What did you say?" Ah Tao didn't hear clearly, "Could it be that like the people of the Chu Palace, they haven't eaten enough and have no strength?" Say it louder! ”
The coachman was so frightened that he said loudly, "Lost, miss, we are lost!" ”
"What?!" Lu Yunrong's master and servant were all shocked.
The driver cried and said, "The more you go this way, the more wrong it becomes...... Small feeling that this is not the way down the mountain! ”
"Why didn't you say it earlier!" Tao hurriedly motioned to the coachman to stop the carriage.
The driver said, "The little one has been following the street signs, so I think I have misremembered...... But the more I walked, the more wrong it felt...... Now the little one doesn't know how to go......"
He raised his hand and pointed, Lu Yunrong and Ah Tao looked over, only to see that the weeds were overgrown in front of them, and there was no road.
Lu Yunrong said calmly: "Hurry up and turn around, while it's still early, we can still go out." ”
"Yes." The coachman was infected by Lu Yunrong's tone, touched his tears, quickly turned the front of the car, and walked back.
Lu Yunrong lifted the curtains and looked at the forests on both sides of the road, his brows locked deeply.
After walking for a while, the carriage came to the crossroads, and the coachman jumped out of the carriage and looked carefully at the road signs, and found that there were marks of being hit on them, apparently because the road was narrow, and the carriage that passed in a hurry or something hit it, and hit the street signs, but he could not tell where the correct direction was pointing.
Lu Yunrong said: "Anyway, it's not this road, if we choose one of the roads, we will definitely be able to find people, ask clearly, and we will definitely find the right way down the mountain." ”
"Yes, miss." The driver looked up at the sky, chose a direction, and continued driving.
However, Lu Yunrong found that the surrounding forests were even more desolate, and there were no new wheel marks on the ground, so it was obvious that this road was also wrong......
The coachman panicked again and hurriedly tightened the reins, "Miss, what should we do now......
Lu Yunrong stood on the wheel of the car and looked around.
She had been to Baiyun Temple many times, but she had always walked along the main roads, never been to these trails, and the plants and trees were growing, and without special markings, she couldn't tell where they were.
Lu Yunrong swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, "Let's rest for a while, calm down and then continue walking." She pointed ahead, "I hear the sound of water flowing over there." ”
There is no need to worry about bandits here, so Ah Tao helped the young lady and came to the stream with the coachman.
"Miss, drink water." Ah Tao filled some water with leaves and came to Lu Yunrong, "I knew that I should have taken Ah Leopard and them out together." ”
"Who would have thought of that?" Lu Yunrong said lightly, drank all the water in the leaves in one go, and motioned for Ah Tao to go and hold some more.
The master and servant had all drunk water and felt a little more comfortable.
After resting for a while, Lu Yunrong planned to continue on the road.
The moment they got up, several silver rays of light flashed and quickly sank into the bodies of the three of them.
They didn't notice it at all, they just felt like they had been bitten by an insect, but then their heads began to get dizzy, and their eyes blurred into a blur.
"Poisonous insects...... Lu Yunrong whispered weakly, and his body collapsed uncontrollably on the ground.
Tao and the coachman also fell.
Lu Yunrong tried to use all her strength to open her eyes and look around, but no matter how hard she tried, the darkness spread uncontrollably......
Soon, all three fainted.
There was a rustling sound in the woods, the bushes being removed, and then the sound of shoes on dead leaves, and several figures came from the depths of the forest and stopped beside the three fainting masters and servants.
"Thanks to Jin Yang, your ears are tipped." Xue Jinyi smiled, looking at Lu Yunrong's somewhat pale face.
Jin Yang arched his hand, "It's still the princess of Chu who is cautious." ”
Qinglan asked, "Miss Lu actually met His Royal Highness the King of Chu and wanted to expose him, it's too hateful, right?" Princess, what should we do with it? ”
"If Miss Lu doesn't come home for a long time, it will definitely worry her family." Xue Jinyi said, "Then go to the official to find someone, today the boulder rolled down, and the street sign was tampered with, if Lu Yunrong wants to check carefully, these will inevitably arouse suspicion." ”
"I don't think I suspect the princess, right?" Qinglan Road.
Xue Jinyi raised her eyes and smiled at her, "What Qinglan said is also right. But...... Who would want to kill a daughter of Yu Langzhong? ”
"I can't think of us anyway." Qinglan puffed up her chest.
For her, the person who wants to harm the king of Chu and the princess is innocent.
