Jiaohua

Chapter 1186 Forest fire
In the mountains and forests, the wind is raging and wolves are howling, the eyes are pitch black, the moon is darkening in the sky, thick clouds cover the sky, and occasionally the clouds move slowly, revealing a glimmer of light from the silver moon.

Zhang Ji, who had just come out of the cave, followed Xia Zhaoyi, eating dry food while walking.The other hand is the same as Xia Zhaoyi, holding a carved cloud lantern.

Two Xia family soldiers followed behind them, each with a lamp.There was nothing but the four of them.

Zhang Ji detailed what happened in the past few days one by one. At the end, he frowned and said, "Second Miss, this subordinate can't understand why General Shen will continue to walk when he knows it's a trap, and he knows it's a trick."

Xia Zhaoyi smiled lightly, looked at the lantern in his hand that was shaken by Xiren Yefeng, and said, "Tell me, are they trying to lure us to the perilla dyeing workshop on purpose?"

"It should be," Zhang Ji said, "The place where the corpse is buried will only make us go to Junnei Township to inquire first, and we will definitely focus on this dyeing workshop when we encounter the plague of snakes and rats in the perilla dyeing workshop."

Xia Zhaoyi said: "Although we put the snake and mouse in, in fact, there is a more direct way to lead us to the perilla dyeing workshop and discover the strangeness in the wine cellar."

"Well," Zhang Ji nodded, "We didn't even think of putting them in these snakes and rats a few days ago, and those people certainly wouldn't have expected them. So the so-called snakes and rats should be theirs."

"Yes, so, if you want to lead us to the perilla dyeing workshop, why do you want to bury the body in the Chen family ancestral hall, making people scream and lead us there?"

Zhang Ji was silent for a while, and suddenly said: "The subordinates understand! They must not only want us to go to the perilla dyeing workshop. No wonder General Shen asked Ruan Guoliang to take people back and go back for the first time!" Said At this point, he paused for a while, and then said, "But Second Miss, why did those people do this?"

Xia Zhaoyi's bright eyes narrowed, and he said as he walked, "Maybe, we want to find a man named Tang, maybe Meng, and Zhang."

"They're looking for this man?"

"Well, they wanted to use us to find it, but they were lucky, and I happened to be looking for it too."

Zhang Ji said thoughtfully: "The second young lady said just now that the surname may also be Zhang, so it may have something to do with this piece of Tengfei."

"Yes." Xia Zhaoyi said.

There was also the howling of ghosts and wolves under the wine cellar. She was sure that this sound was used to scare people away.

Tang Acacia is good at both piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. From his poems and articles, we can see his attainments in rhythm and sound.

Xia Zhaoyi believes that it is not too difficult for him to build such a grotesque "instrument" by taking advantage of the terrain.

She seldom thought about the relationship between Tang Xiangsi and "those people" before, because Tang Xiangsi only had the word "the deceased" for her curiosity.

Now it seems that "those people" have to deal with not only people with the surname Qiao, Tang Xiangsi is also what they want to find.

And before she came to Hengxiang on this trip, she never thought that she would have an intersection with Feng Qingang, unexpectedly, Feng Qingang was in Hengxiang.

Although Feng Qingang and "those people" are not enemies and have been in close contact, it can be seen from what Fan Zhuyi knows and the cave she has been to that is not known to "those people". Qing Ang is obviously not the same as them.

If Fan Zhuyi's sect is added, and she and Shen Lie are counted together, all of a sudden, five forces collide.

The further into the mountain, the stronger the wind, Zhang Ji looked at the dazzling lights and said, "Second Miss, do you want to cut some branches to fix this lantern?"

Xia Zhaoyi smiled and shook the lantern in his hand again, jokingly said: "If there is such a lamp in the mountains, it will be in the mountains. It is really wonderful to match the sound of the wind."

Different from old Tongzhi Changle or Zhan Ning, Zhang Ji is serious and unsmiling, and respectfully said: "Yes."

Seeing him like this, Xia Zhaoyi explained: "This dazzling light will indeed cause confusion, but the creatures hiding in the dark will also be confused. Look at the fire." Xia Zhaoyi raised his hand high, and the lantern was on her shoulder. The front was swayed by Lin Feng, and as she walked forward, the light and shadows from the lights swayed randomly in the whole mountain, Xia Zhaoyi smiled, "Many animals are afraid of fire, those who hide in the dark and stare at us People, they are also afraid of seeing the light. If you want to plot against us, you have to hide yourself first if you encounter this light."

Zhang Ji said in a sincere voice, "Well, Second Miss, I used to be a wayfinder, and I am used to walking in the dark, so I have been educated now. However, I still need Second Miss's keenness and skill to deter those people. Not smart, this trick will not be used in the future."

Xia Zhaoyi was amused by his serious interpretation. Although the laughter was low, it was very clear.

Driven by her brisk tone, the two soldiers behind also laughed.

Xia Zhaoyi put down the lantern, then raised the lantern after a sudden pause.

She obviously didn't say anything, but just for a moment, the three men behind her, including Zhang Ji, immediately became vigilant, all on guard, and almost instinctively walked towards her back, trying to protect her.

Following the sky where Xia Zhaoyi was looking up, Zhang Ji frowned and said solemnly, "Second Miss, is someone hanging on top?!"

Xia Zhaoyi's clear eyes became darker and darker, and he said lightly, "It's armor made by soldiers from the capital's southern capital."

The sound of the wind pierced through the forest sea, whistling and rolling thousands of branches and leaves, and it seemed that there was a scream from far away in the sky, but after listening carefully, there was nothing.

·
In April, the warbler flies and the grass grows, the mountains are full of greenery, and thousands of trees are growing.

Accompanied by sharp screams, many torches that fell to the ground instantly ignited a fire on the lush vegetation.

Li Guohao led people to rush down the mountain, because he lost the torch, and there was no moonlight in the sky, the dark forest and sea looked like demon bones wrapped around branches for a moment.

He led the way without thinking, followed by a group of stumbling soldiers.

With a sound of "whoosh", several sharp arrows chased from behind, and a soldier screamed and fell from above.

Others didn't bother to help him, they ran faster and screamed louder.

When I ran to a mountain spring, the intersection narrowed and there were rocks on both sides. A few soldiers fell into the shallow spring in the dark, were shocked by the coolness, and climbed up screaming, only to find that the mountain spring only reached their knees.

"Shut up!" A man shouted from the front.

Li Guohao's ears were sharp, and he recognized Zhang Ji's voice at once, and immediately shouted: "Zhang Zhiling! Is it Zhang Zhiling!"

"Someone's coming for us!" the second officer called.

Everyone was overjoyed, so they ran faster.

"This group of people, what are you talking about!" said a soldier behind Zhang Ji speechlessly.

"Let's go!" Zhang Ji quickened his pace.

People from both sides met, Li Guohao seemed to be amnesty, but he looked and looked, only to see that there were only three of them.

The soldier beside Zhang Ji said, "Didn't you see our second lady?"

"Miss Ali?" Li Guohao looked around, but everyone said they didn't see him.

"Our second lady went up one step ahead of us," Zhang Ji said, "If you didn't meet her, then she took a shortcut."

"Shortcut? Miss Ali knows the way? Has she been here before?" Li Guohao was surprised.

Zhang Ji shook his head: "No, but for our second lady, as long as it's not a cliff, there is a way."

The mountain wind is getting stronger and stronger, the call signs are sweeping, and the trees beside the mountain road are bent down.

The forest fire in the distance started quickly and became fierce. There were a large number of broken branches, which were blown to other places with fireballs.

The villagers in Junnei Township, who ran down with Li Guohao, wept anxiously, fearing that the fire would engulf them.

One of them was about to run, but Zhang Ji held him back and said, "Don't be afraid, there will be heavy rain soon, let's go down the mountain first!"

Li Guohao and other soldiers looked up at the sky. Indeed, the sky has been densely covered by thick clouds tonight. Looking at the violent mountain wind, it is indeed going to rain heavily.
