After crossing, I became the vicious concubine of the tyrant

Chapter 354 Worry
The black-skinned man took a step forward, and just as the guard was about to make a move, he spoke again.

"It's not for the cloth business, what about your goods."

The guard breathed a sigh of relief, withdrew his hand on his waist, then took out two pieces of silver and handed it to the black-skinned man, smiling flatteringly.

"It's not like we've seen people watching the city gate from a distance for several days, and the goods have been piled up on the car. It's just that the two of us came to explore the way. Please be accommodating."

The black-skinned man took the two pieces of silver, looked them up and down, his face gradually softened, and looked behind them, he could only see the empty official road, but he would not have piled up the goods in front of them. He didn't say much on the way, he just took out a wooden sign from his pocket and handed it to them.

"This is a traffic order. Because of the dry weather, many unruly people around the city are causing trouble in the city, and the government magistrate ordered the city gate to be closed. If you have a guide, even if you have a certificate, you will naturally not block it. Your goods can be released. Far, although there is a token, but the permission to pass is only until the end of the end of the hour, after the end of the hour, you have to wait until tomorrow, this pass is only valid for two days at most, you should hurry up."

The black-skinned man explained that the guard took the wooden sign very pleasantly, bowed his waist to thank him, and said a lot of good words. The black-skinned man looked very friendly, and told them not to be polite, and hurry up to enter the city, if it expires But it is invalid.

The guard said yes repeatedly, and then left gratefully, but the moment he turned around, the kindness on the black-skinned man's face faded, and instead a hint of sinister calculation flashed across, similarly, the flattering smiles of the two guards were also caught Vigilance and preparedness supersede.

"My lord, they are back."

Nangong Yin and his party hid in the woods next to the official road. The lush broad-leaved forest blocked them tightly. There were special people guarding the entrance. When they heard the sound of crushing dead leaves, they all became vigilant until they saw The two people who were familiar with each other were relieved.

"My lord, look at this, I think there is really something wrong with Jiangzhou City."

The guard turned cold, and told Nangong Yin and Gu Qingcheng what happened under the city gate just now, and handed over the wooden pass to Nangong Yin by the way.

"Although the black-skinned man did not release any malice or pressure towards us from the beginning to the end, my subordinates instinctively feel that this man is not a simple person, and looking at his appearance and listening to his words, he is not like a Central Plains person."

Gu Qingcheng glanced at the wooden sign, it was ordinary wood, it even looked fresh, without any other smell, but the flowers carved on it were extremely complicated, it looked like a master's handicraft, two completely contradictory elements. Combined, it reveals a kind of unspoken oddity.

"what is this!"

Gu Qingcheng always felt that this wooden sign was not that simple, maybe it was a trick to deceive her eyes. She stared at the wooden sign, intending to take it over and study it carefully, but suddenly a breeze blew, and the flowers on it seemed to move with it, and she felt even more Looking carefully at the wooden sign in Nangong Yin's hand, he wanted to take a closer look, but heard Gu Qingyi's exclamation.

After interrupting her attention, everyone around her also looked over one after another, but Gu Qingyi's eyes fell on the wooden sign and remained motionless.

"what happened?"

Nangong Yin asked with concern, and Gu Qingcheng looked at her sister even more worriedly.

"Don't you think this wooden sign is strange, didn't you see it just now?"

Gu Qingyi grabbed her younger sister's hand and asked a question tentatively, but got an answer that made her feel cold.

"What should I see?"

Gu Qingcheng vaguely understood what her sister was talking about, but she couldn't be sure. Nan Gongyin frowned at a word that made no sense, and shifted her gaze back to the wooden sign. It was a simple wooden sign, except for the carved flowers on it, which he didn't recognize. , nothing special anymore.

Gu Qingcheng knows her sister very well, she is definitely not the kind of person who is aimless, maybe she was not dazzled just now?

The hand in the palm of the hand tightened, and Gu Qingcheng secretly encouraged her sister. The latter turned her head in a daze, and was inspired by the firmness and encouragement in Gu Qingcheng's eyes. Nangong Yin said.

"I just saw..."

"My lord, my lord, it moved! The flower just moved!"

Gu Qingyi bit her lower lip, hesitating a little, worried that she was wrong, the joke was small, it would be bad if it made people panic, but she was also worried that everyone would be in danger because of her own momentary mistake, thinking After a while, I decided to tell the truth.

As soon as he raised his head, he was disturbed by a panic. The guard standing behind Nangong Yin tremblingly stretched out a hand, pointing at the wooden sign, his eyes were wide open, his face was panicked and his tone was flustered, Nangong Yin frowned. Looking at him, the latter thought he didn't believe himself.

Pointing to the stammering opening of the wooden sign.

"It's true, I really saw it move just now, more than once, at first I thought it was my eyesight, and stared at it for a long time, it really moved just now, just like a real flower .”

Nangong Yin's face was indifferent, he couldn't tell whether he believed it or not, he just set his eyes on the wooden sign, the flowers carved on it he didn't recognize, but they were indeed lifelike, but no matter how real they were, they were all fake, how could they be real Well, everyone thinks so too.

"What he said is true. I saw it too, and my sister saw it too. I was about to say this just now. I thought it was my eyesight. After thinking about it, I should remind you that we are not the only ones who saw it."

Gu Qingcheng and Gu Qingyi exchanged glances, confirmed the thoughts in each other's minds, glanced at the guard, then looked away, looked at Nangongyin, and spoke firmly every word, everyone was shocked.

But isn't this just a simple wood carving, what's so strange, they all stared at the wood carving, but Gu Qingcheng didn't think it would work, maybe this is something that makes people hallucinogenic?
"Put this thing away, don't take it out without my king's permission, and put away all your curiosity. It seems that there are quite a lot of unexpected things in Jiangzhou City."

Gu Qingcheng nodded approvingly, because of this pass order, they had to go into the city to meet the ghosts in the city for a while, Nan Gongyin's eyes darkened, Gu Qingcheng hugged her sister, everyone's heart They all calmed down, no one knew what was waiting for them in the city.

"Your Majesty, Grand Tutor Gu is asking to see you."

"Come in."

It was getting late outside Gu Taifu, Gu Taifu slightly nodded and walked in, the seriousness on his face made people nervous.

"Master Taifu, is there any news from the south?"

Nangong Mo had a bad premonition in his heart. It had been nearly ten years since he last heard from Nangong Yin and Gu Qingcheng.
