Chapter 171

In this quiet midnight, Mr. Liu's quiet voice was carried away by the night wind, and it seemed that even the water of the lake had a layer of ripples.

However, the only answer to him was still the sound of wind and water, nothing else.

He calmed down and waited for a while, when suddenly his heart moved.

Could it be that the meaning in the letter does not refer to a meeting, but...

He immediately turned to the guard at the side and asked, "Your ears are better than mine. Listen carefully. Is there someone hiding around here?"

The locust tree forest is full of shadows, but it is also a place where people can hide.

The guards had already put all their energy into it, watching all directions and listening to all directions. At this time, they immediately reported after hearing the words: "Sir, we have already sensed it carefully, and there should be no one in ambush here."

"Oh? Is there no one?" Mr. Liu seemed to have expected that they would answer in this way, and he was not surprised when he heard this. After pondering for a while, he ordered: "You two, go into the woods and have a look."

"Yes." The two guards took the order, raised their long swords, and the two slowly sneaked into the woods with horns. The remaining guards surrounded Mr. Liu and guarded him with swords.

Time seems to go extremely slowly.

Mr. Liu glanced at Kelou from time to time, but there was still no sound in the woods.

He was inexplicably terrified, and countless thoughts flashed across his mind, but he suppressed them all.

In any case, with this tone, he must sink.

The engravings are changing little by little, waiting, making the time extraordinarily long.

In order to dispel the uneasiness in his heart, Mr. Liu pretended to take a walk, walked to the side of the ferry, and looked at the lake water on that side in a trance.

There are two boats moored in the middle of the lake. Even if you look at it in the night, the painted boats are like flying eaves hanging on the moon, with high masts hanging in the sky. It is even more expensive than an official ship.

Mr. Liu was looking at it secretly, when he heard footsteps in the woods.

He suddenly turned around, only to see the two guards who had sneaked into the woods rushing out one after the other, one of them was still holding a bag of things.

"Sir, there is something hanging on a tree in the forest, it looks like cloth, and there is a letter on it, which looks extraordinary, so I will fetch it later." The guard holding the object flew forward Offer something and bow your head to report.

Mr. Liu's eyes glowed in the night.

There was something left behind!

He took the roll of cloth from the guard's hand, his arms trembling unconsciously.

He was originally holding a ray of hope.

During this trip, he made various calculations and prepared for the worst.

Running this trip for Cheng Tingzhen is firstly for the sake of their guests and hosts, and secondly is to plead guilty and use practical actions to atone for Huang Baipi's incident.

However, seeing this package now, he still breathed a sigh of relief.

His luck is really very good. Among the various results he calculated, this result can be said to be the top lottery.

With the gradually clear moonlight, Mr. Liu stared at the cloth in his hand, and carefully felt the material of the cloth with his fingers.

For some reason, the cloth gave him a somewhat familiar feeling.

"Could this be..." He murmured to himself, turned over a corner of the cloth and took a closer look, and was immediately taken aback.

The seal in the corner and the unique pattern depicted on the cloth let him know that he guessed right.

This is actually a complete set of landscape albums, and it is also made by the Yizhou government!

At that moment, Mr. Liu felt a storm in his heart.

The official mountains and rivers book is almost forbidden, and officials who are not above the seventh rank cannot hold it.The person who sent the letter actually sent them an official album, and it was a complete set.

What is the origin of this person?What magical powers?
Mr. Liu took a few deep breaths, calmed down, and looked at the album again carefully.

The album was tied with the most common hemp ropes, and a letter was stuffed under the hemp ropes, with the same words written on the letter: Lang Zhong Ling Qi.

At a glance, this handwriting is the same as the previous letter, both are rigid and have no character at all.

After seeing this, Mr. Liu didn't dare to delay any longer, and didn't have time to think about it, so he immediately ordered: "Return!" After saying that, he rolled up the cloth and walked back first.

This thing must be handed over to Lang Zhongling as soon as possible, and a decision should be made early.

Perhaps because of his relaxed mood, the return trip seemed to be shorter than before. Mr. Liu felt that in the blink of an eye, he had already arrived at the guest courtyard where the Cheng family rented. The figure behind him was Cheng Tingzhen.

"Sir!" Seeing Mr. Liu stepping into the courtyard, Cheng Tingzhen immediately went down the steps to greet him, his voice was not as calm as usual.

It was only when Mr. Liu was grabbed by Cheng Tingzhen that his palms were wet with sweat.

"Mister is back!" Looking up and down Mr. Liu by the light for a while, Cheng Tingzhen finally showed a relieved expression when he saw that his first counselor was unscathed.

At this moment, Mr. Liu realized that his back was also a little wet with sweat.

Although this trip is not dangerous, it is also a transaction with an unknown person or force. If there is no fear in my heart, it is impossible.

The two held their hands in silence, and after a few breaths, they calmed down.

Cheng Tingzhen waved his hand to order the guards to stand near the East Chamber, and he took Mr. Liu's hand and stepped into the room.

As soon as he entered the room, Mr. Liu immediately took a step back, bowed to Cheng Tingzhen and said, "My servant is not disgraceful!" After saying that, he presented the mountain and river book.

Cheng Tingzhen took the picture in his hand and only glanced at it, his face was full of surprise.

He also had an identical picture book in his hand, and he was very surprised to see it now.

"Is this...a gift from that person?" He asked, undoing the tether and taking down the letter.

Mr. Liu nodded and said: "That's right. This person is so cunning that he didn't show his face. He just hung this thing in the locust trees, and we will take it by ourselves."

After speaking, a thought suddenly flashed in his mind.

This person just throws things in the woods like this, and he is not afraid of being taken away by mistake, so he is so relieved?Or... he knew long ago that the people in the entire inn had been drugged and would be picked up by someone? !
Mr. Liu frowned in thought, while Cheng Ting opened the envelope and was reading the letter carefully.What was written in the letter was still a lame acrostic poem:
Pinglin misty rain recalls the old days,
The head of the city returns to the crow and continues the cold gardenia;

If you ask where the east wind is going,
It's too late to speak lonely in the empty court.

Hidden hooks to send warm gold bottles of wine,
In the silent place, two hearts know;
September Frost people drift away,
Drunk lying alone, Xiaolian wet.

After the poem, like the previous letter, wrote the eight characters: "Once this thing comes out, there will be no worries for ten years."

Cheng Tingzhen's complexion was as cold as ice at this moment, and his deep eyes reflected the candlelight, flickering on and off, faint and difficult to distinguish.

"If Pingcheng is empty, it is hidden in the Ninth Grade. Once this thing is released, it will be safe for ten years."

Combining the horoscope and the last horoscope of the Tibetan acrostic poem is such a sentence.
