Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 1310
"The Northern Wei people's team disappeared?"

Zhao Guang stood there in a daze, "Which Northern Wei team?"

"Everyone who participated in the intermediate ceremony," Li Ji took a deep breath, "including the disciples of Beihan Pavilion."

what?
Zhao Guang's eyes widened in disbelief, "How is it possible?"

He took off a kit from his waist, which was full of letterheads brought by the pigeons. He began to rummage through it desperately, and finally took out a small piece of paper marked with the date of the day before yesterday and opened it. The team has arrived at Longcheng, a border city in the Northern Wei Dynasty.

Although Xu Canghai left quietly with the Northern Wei team, it can be said that the entire cultivation world is now paying attention to the movements of the Northern Wei people. Zhao Guang also immediately asked Soochow to report to Xu Canghai and others in real time about the dark line hidden in the Northern Wei Dynasty trend.

Zhao Guang knew that Ying Baoyue was also quietly following Xu Canghai and his party's route back to Luoyang through her means.

The reason why everyone was so concerned about Xu Canghai and his group's route back to the north actually had another very important purpose.

That is to find out where Ninggu Pagoda is.

Although Ninggu Pagoda became famous in the mainland seven years ago, its exact location has been kept hidden by the Northern Wei court in order to prevent anyone from trying to rescue those nuns. There is no map on the market that can show the location of Qingning Pagoda.

With the words of the mountain ghost, Zhao Guang speculated that if Xu Canghai passed Ninggu Pagoda on his return journey, he might go to check whether its defenses were tight, so he sent people to quietly follow the Northern Wei team.

But Xu Canghai's realm is too high and his vigilance is very strong. Soochow's Xizuo dare not get too close to him. Usually, when people from the Northern Wei Dynasty enter a city, Xizuo rushes to Lincheng, which is the closest to that city. In this case Under the circumstances, the information will inevitably lag behind.

Now it seems that Ying Baoyue's intelligence line is faster.

Zhao Guang took a deep breath and looked at Li Ji who also stood up, "Would you like to take a look?"

Li Ji had already walked out of the courtyard one step ahead of him, and Zhao Guang hurriedly followed.

Although everyone is preparing their luggage for the Northern Wei Dynasty, the movement in Yingbaoyueyuan has always been the most eye-catching.

When Zhao Guang and Li Ji rushed to the south courtyard, Ji Jiashu had already arrived at Ying Baoyue's courtyard.

Chen Zichu, Xu Yishan, Guichen and others trotted all the way, and they were running here from another direction.

Leather and carving knives were still scattered on the table in the courtyard. Ji Jiashu and Ying Baoyue sat in front of the table, and a boy in Tsing Yi stood beside Ying Baoyue, his eyes were red, as if he had just cried.

"Mr. Chunhua, you came too fast." Zhao Guang greeted Ji Jiashu with a smile.

"It didn't come too soon," Ji Jiashu said, "Today is the day to make my mask, and I was already here."

Zhao Guang immediately understood.

When Ying Baoyue said that she could make a human skin mask, he was startled, and enthusiastically said that he wanted to learn from Ying Baoyue, but after watching it for a day, he found that he couldn't learn it at all.

The production of human skin masks is an extremely delicate job. According to Ying Baoyue, it was indeed made of human skin at the beginning, because in order to achieve the degree of realism, the mask must fit the human face extremely closely, and have the skin texture and skin color of a real person. Originally, only human skin could achieve this effect.

Hearing this statement, Zhao Guang was terrified. Fortunately, Ying Baoyue smiled and explained, but the Great Qin Guoshi banned this practice and invented the method of using cowhide, so this cruel thing was banned.

It's just that it's made of cowhide, and the process itself becomes more complicated.

In order to ensure a good fit, each mask has to be tailor-made, and the wearer has to sit in front of the maker, who will carefully touch the other person's face and modify the most suitable mask one by one.

A mask needs to be carved with at least a thousand lines, and Ying Baoyue has been carving it for ten days without a break, changing the person every two days, and everyone has to sit in front of her for two days.

Zhao Guang's mask had already been made the day before yesterday. Zhao Guang remembered that he had been touched by Ying Baoyue for two days while sitting in front of the stone table. The way Li Ji looked at him after returning home made him tremble with fear.

I don't know what it will look like when I make Li Ji's mask...

Thinking about that picture, even Zhao Guang didn't think it was too beautiful.

At this time Li Ji's voice interrupted Zhao Guang's thoughts, "Baoyue, what happened."

The leather in Ying Baoyue's hand had a straight cut in half, which was obviously scrapped.

With her calmness and self-control, such a thing would not have happened if she hadn't heard quite shocking news.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Guang was also startled. Looking at the red-eyed boy next to him, he guessed that he was the one who made the commotion.

"Your Highness, what's the matter? Who is this child?"

The boy in Tsing Yi cautiously hid behind Ying Baoyue.

Ying Baoyue took a deep breath, looked at the little boy behind him, "Fang Shisan, they can trust you, tell them."

The person behind her is Fang Shisan, Qian Duoduo's youngest adoptive son. Although he is young, he is already able to take on great responsibilities. The qin and zither she used in the middle-level ceremony were brought by Fang Shisan from the Northern Wei Dynasty. of.

According to Qian Duoduo, Fang Shisan grew up in the Northern Wei Dynasty. Apart from being a little crying, he can be said to be the person who knows the most trails in the Northern Wei Dynasty.

So when the news was sent by Fang Shisan, Ying Baoyue's heart went cold.

"Follow... lost."

As Fang Shisan said, he burst into tears again.

"What did you lose?" Jiang Yuanyuan strode into the courtyard and asked impatiently.

Nanchu also has intelligence lines, but now it seems that the intelligence lines of the imperial courts of their countries are not as fast as the kid Ying Baoyue knew.

Ying Baoyue has been inquiring about the whereabouts of the Northern Wei practitioners going north, and Jiang Yuanyuan also knew in advance.

It's just that with Xu Canghai leading the battle, Jiang Yuanyuan felt that even if he followed him, he couldn't find any traces, so he didn't pay too much attention.

At the same time, he didn't understand why Ying Baoyue cared so much about it.

After all, no matter which way to go, Xu Canghai will definitely take people back to Luoyang, the capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty, to report to the King of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

"If it is said that the Northern Wei people's team disappeared, that's okay." Jiang Yuanyuan frowned, "After all, how could the Northern Wei Guoshi let a few secret agents follow all the time."

Is this group of people too underestimating the Eight Gods?

"But," Fang Shisan wiped his tears and glanced at Ying Baoyue, "Master Juggernaut has always left traces before."

Jiang Yuanyuan was taken aback, and suddenly understood why Ying Baoyue's people were able to follow Xu Canghai and his party closely.

He had received information before that Lin Wangong had caught up with Xu Canghai and his group at the border of Soochow, and then joined the team returning to the north.

It seems that Ying Baoyue was able to know the whereabouts of the Northern Wei team because of Lin Wangong.

Li Ji grasped the point of the question and asked.

"Master Juggernaut, didn't you send any more messages?"

Ying Baoyue took a deep breath and nodded.

This was the agreement she made with Lin Wangong when he left Ruyang.

Along the way, Lin Wangong has been quietly sending her letters every day to let her know his whereabouts.

But this news was cut off just yesterday.

Ying Baoyue clenched the carving knife tightly.

She actually didn't care about the whereabouts of Xu Canghai and others, she just wanted to know if Meng Shi had returned to Northern Wei safely.

But just yesterday.

Lin Wangong and Meng Shi disappeared at the same time.
