After Xiang Luo Ce in the air made sure that the pursuit had subsided, he floated to the ground and landed next to Xiang Haihua and Chong'er, who were in messy clothes and disheveled hair. He looked at the two of them and asked, "Are you okay?"
Xiang Haihua shook his head, "It's okay."
Chong'er also shook his head with lingering fear.
After confirming that these two were okay, Xiang Luo Ce truly breathed a sigh of relief. One was his daughter and the other was Li Chenghu's daughter. He couldn't face anything that happened to either of them.
There was also a murderous intent in his eyes, and he wanted to know who was so bold and dared to act so recklessly under his nose.
Among the surrounding guards, some got up in false alarm, while others were injured by arrows shot backwards.
A group of great archers carrying bows and arrows flew out of the forest. They were all dressed in black and exuded a sense of solemnity. They gathered around Xiang Luo Ce one after another. Several others were carried up. The way is also applied to those who were shot and killed.
The last person to fly up was a gray-haired master archer. He stretched out his hand to try the wounded person he was carrying, and found that he was already dead. His expression turned gloomy.
Looking at this group of great archers who suddenly appeared, Pang Wuzheng's eyes flickered in the crowd.
Xiang Luo Ce asked: "Where is the murderer?"
The gray-haired archer looked back and replied, "We couldn't catch him, so he ran away."
Xiang Luo Ce said solemnly: "So many great archers attacked together, but not one of them was caught?"
Xiang Haihua said: "Dad, you can't blame them. The murderer is at least at the high-level realm. Once the opponent strikes, we can't move at all. If it weren't for the help of Mr. Ao Ding's arrows, we might have suffered. "
She is in the upper realm of the Xuan Dynasty, and she knows the depth of each other as soon as they fight.
Naturally, his daughter's words were correct. Xiang Luo Ce looked around at the others and saw that those involved nodded in agreement.
The gray-haired archer known as Ao Ding said: "Looking at the figure, it should be a woman."
"A woman? A woman in the high-level realm..." Xiang Luo Ce frowned, and a figure flashed in his mind. He immediately turned his head and winked at his subordinates, who quickly left the scene.
Mr. Ao Ding, the old archer, turned his attention to Xiang Haihua and Chong'er. "It seems that the other party's target is not them. Otherwise, based on the attacker's cultivation and the planned attack, based on our strength, in a hurry, There is absolutely no chance of stopping it."
Having said this, Xiang Haihua seemed to have remembered something, "It's true. After the attacker opened the carriage, he found it was the two of us. He was obviously stunned. It seemed beyond his expectation, and then he seemed to lose his grip. Interested, otherwise..." He glanced at Ao Ding and the others.
The implication is that otherwise the great archers present may not be able to save them.
Pang Wuzheng in the crowd became expressionless, with lowered eyebrows and eyes, like a sculpture.
Xiang Luo Ce said, "If it's not targeting you, then who will it be targeting if we set up an ambush here?"
Everyone felt strange after hearing this. They took the risk to sneak into the mountains and forests outside the palace where there were hidden sentries. If they were not targeting this trip, who would they be targeting?
One thing is at least one thing, it must be targeted at people passing by on this road.
In any case, the people had already run away. After leaving some people at the scene to investigate, the rest returned to the palace.
Such an incident did not delay Prime Minister Luo Ce's banquet. At the banquet, Pang Wuzheng was also introduced to Chong'er. At the same time, Ao Ding and his wife were also introduced to Chong'er. It was especially noted that the couple were both The great archer in the Shangxuan realm was originally the close guard of Prince Duan, so Chong'er didn't have to make a fuss when he saw him in the future, and he could completely trust the couple.
Chong'er didn't know the importance of it, but Pang Wuzheng was secretly frightened and couldn't help but look at Chong'er a few more times.
Of course, Pang Wuzheng also presented the orb as a meeting gift to Chong'er.
After the banquet, Ao Ding and his wife personally accompanied Xiang Haihua and Chong'er back to Zhihai Pavilion, and Pang Wuzheng also said goodbye together.
Prime Minister Luo Ce, who was watching, also had his subordinates appear next to him, reporting in a low voice: "We have confirmed it ourselves and also verified with Dayesi. The old Lihua demon has been hiding in the hiding place. Not only did he not leave when the incident happened, but he also confirmed it with Dayesi." She was there before and after the incident, so I can be sure that the masked person who did it was definitely not her."
Xiang Luo Ce murmured with his hands behind his hands, "If it's not her, then who could it be? There are only a few women in the high-level realm of cultivation. It seems that this Amber Sea has really become a place for great gatherings. Anyone with the ability can start one All of them are coming out, all kinds of monsters and monsters are really coming..."
Before Xiang Haihua could even sit down when she returned to Zhihai Pavilion room, someone knocked on the door and came in. The handsome and elegant lover came.
Just because there was no one to stop him and he could just knock on the door and come in, we knew what the relationship between the young master uncle and Xiang Haihua was like.
As soon as she saw him coming, a knowing smile appeared on Xiang Haihua's face.
There was nothing she could do about it. The man's words and deeds were free and easy, and he was good-looking. His face alone was pleasing to the eye, and she couldn't help but feel tenderness and sweetness.
The two people walking towards each other naturally hugged each other halfway, and they looked so happy and happy.
The fair-skinned and wealthy woman next to him snickered and hurriedly went out to avoid it.
There was no one else around. The young uncle took a closer look at Xiang Haihua's appearance and asked, "I just saw that you looked wrong. Did something happen?"
It seemed like a coincidence that he came just after the other party came back, but in fact it was not the case. Xiang Luo Ce's sudden banquet with Chong'er caught his attention.
"It's nothing, there was a little accident..." Xiang Haihua casually said a few words about the general situation. She still knew the specific situation and did not reveal too much.
To put it bluntly, I still have some bottom line precautions.
Fortunately, the young master uncle is still very free and easy, and will not force others to do anything. Seeing that she does not want to say more, he does not ask any more questions. After a little gentleness, he lets her go about her own business first. After all, something happened just now. See you later when you have time.
Xiang Haihua liked his knowing and calm manner, and his words and deeds always brought people a sense of relaxation and pleasure. She sent him to the door personally and made an appointment to go find him after finishing the matter.
After returning to his room, the young uncle played with the folding fan in his hand, walked among the still white hanging veils, suddenly closed his eyes and concentrated, and first used the "Listening to Words" technique to listen to the whole room quietly.
This is what he does every time he comes back from his room.
After confirming that there was nothing wrong, he immediately cast a spell to release his hearing, and countless random noises suddenly came.
Before he can quickly capture sounds with certain characteristics, he generally will not listen and analyze all the sounds that can be heard. With his current cultivation level, doing so is not sustainable. That kind of comprehensive screening and analysis of all sounds, The consumption of brain power is actually terrible. First, the brain cannot bear it. Over time, even if the brain does not explode, it may drive yourself crazy.
However, after breaking through to the realm of Shanxuan, my ability to control Tingzi Jue has indeed become much stronger. First of all, the control range has expanded a lot.
He had no trouble locating the room where Chong'er was. He was already very familiar with it. His hearing and consciousness ignored the noise and directly locked onto Yu Qing's room. The voices of several familiar guys talking immediately appeared in the room. caught his hearing.
Chong'er, who had just returned, was also telling Yu Qing and others about the incident of the attack. First of all, Yu Qing and others must be informed of this incident, and secondly, Yu Qing and others must also ask about how they went to the banquet.
After hearing the relevant situation, Yu Qing and others were also quite surprised. They did not expect that such a thrilling incident would happen, so they couldn't help but ask some questions about the situation at that time.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the young uncle who used the Ting Zi Jue also listened very carefully because he did not know the details of what happened.
The reason why he knew something was wrong was because he eavesdropped on the speech at the banquet in Miyagi City and found out that an accident happened on the way there.
He really didn't expect such a thing to happen at first, so he wouldn't have followed Chong'er closely from the moment he came out.
After hearing what happened, Yu Qing and others felt strange, and they all agreed with the judgment of Xiang Luo Ce and others. The target of the attacker should not be Xiang Haihua and Chong'er, otherwise they would not be able to let them go easily.
But the junior uncle didn't think so, and it could be said that he was directly suspicious of this matter.
Sometimes, not knowing some things that others intentionally let you know filter out some of the blinders, and it may be easier to see the truth clearly.
Because Xiang Luo Ce knew the whole process of the banquet, he believed that everything was under control. He believed that he was the one who decided the time, place and people of the banquet, so he did not doubt that there was anything wrong with the banquet.
But in the eyes of the young uncle, it was a bit suspicious. Chong'er had just accepted an inexplicable banquet invitation, and then happened to be attacked on the way. Should we use the results to conclude that this was a coincidence?
He is so suspicious because his purpose here is to secretly protect the safety of these juniors in the door. He will not easily let go of any suspicion.
Many times, everyone knows that there may be a problem with something, but no one questions the result. The underlying reason is that they cannot face it because they have no ability to verify it and can only accept this reality.
But the little uncle is different. He has this ability, so he will not hesitate to suspect anything suspicious.
This is the reason why he dares to go it alone and stay on the edge.
So he had to figure out what was going on. He wouldn't be able to protect the safety of these juniors if he continued to be confused.
However, Yu Qing and others' attention soon shifted to Pang Wuzheng's treasure offering.
What else can there be? Let Chong'er quickly open the box and see what kind of treasure it is.
As soon as the baby was revealed, there was an uproar. This one was holding it to take a look, and that one wanted to go over and have a look. After a while of envy, it turned into a discussion about how much the thing was worth, but nothing happened.
Seeing that those things were already thinking about how much they would sell for, the young uncle could only secretly scold a group of worthless people, as if they had never seen any money.
Chong'er didn't care about this. She had never thought about taking the treasure for herself. She thought it was natural to hand over the good things to Yu Qing. That was her senior brother. If not, who would give it to the master?
She didn't want to participate in the price discussion, so she entered Yu Qing's room first and helped Yu Qing tidy up the room. This was her habitual behavior when she came back after going out.
Then she went to her room to tidy up, which was a habit she had developed around Xu Fei, as she didn't want others to think she was too sloppy.
But at this moment, the little uncle who had been thinking about it for a long time finally spoke to her from the air: Chong'er.
"Well..." Zhong'er, who was sorting out, subconsciously responded and raised his head, "Master..." As soon as the words came out, he suddenly realized something. There was no one else in the closed room except her. She quickly looked around and lay down. He looked under the couch.
The young master's uncle spoke again: "Chong'er, don't be surprised. This is my master's sound transmission skill. Do you remember that bell?"
Zhong'er immediately thought of the strange words her master said when he gave her the bell to contact her. She suddenly understood something, but she was still shocked. What kind of magic is this? I couldn't help but try to ask softly, "Master, can... can you hear me?"
If she hadn't been told in advance, she wouldn't have believed it. Even so, she was still shocked.
Young Master: I can contact you and hear you. Don’t let others know about my conversation with you for the time being, including Lao Fifteen. I already know about the attack on you on the way. Please tell me the circumstances of the incident in detail. Don’t omit all the details that you can remember.
When he overheard their conversation just now, he only listened halfway.
Zhong'er immediately recalled the story in a low voice. She was still very obedient, and this time she really fully presented the details.
In fact, the whole incident happened very briefly. Halfway through the detailed description, the junior uncle suddenly interjected: Wait, you said the masked man looked at you a little strange?
Chong'er: "Master, that's what I felt. I felt like he was staring at me for a while."
Uncle Junior: Are you sure you are staring at you, not you and Xiang Haihua?
Chong'er: "Master, I made eye contact with him."
Uncle Junior: Then he ran away without touching you?
Chong'er: "It was a group of great archers who took action and scared him away..."
This time she told the whole story in one breath without being interrupted again. After stopping and waiting for a while, she realized that the communication had been suspended and fell into silence.
After waiting for a while, Chong'er looked around and asked tentatively: "Master, are you still there?"
The little uncle responded: Chong'er, there are three things you need to do. First, let Lao Fifteen go to Lan Xuan to find out the details about Pang Wuzheng who gave you the gift. Second, you shouldn't stay bored in the house all the time. It's time to go out for a walk.
Chong'er: "It's okay, Master. You don't have to go out. It's good to stay in the house. I don't feel sad."
Uncle Master: Just do as I say, go out for a walk, don’t go too far, just wander around the lively places in Zhihai Pavilion, do you understand?
Chong'er: Okay, Master, where's the third item?
Uncle Junior: Tell Lao Fifteen and the others that I told you before you came that no matter what you get when you come to Amber Sea, you must give it to me when you get back. If anyone dares to reach out randomly, I will break his legs!
Well, after hearing this, the last trace of doubt in Chong'er's heart disappeared, and he confirmed that the person who was sending the message from a distance must be his master.
