Chapter 82 Ziyuan’s Life Is Short.
"Please take good care of His Highness, and I will come back as soon as I can!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Nuo jumped from the window sill and ran towards the figure that confused him.
Crowd riots.
Seeing that Li Nuo's body was full of evil spirit that was so strong that it was suffocating, whoever had the guts to stop him made way to both sides, fearing that someone would chop off his head if it was too late.
He became more and more convinced that this matter was closely related to Zi Yuan.
Recalling that when he had a heart-to-heart talk with Ziyuan admiring the moon at Zuiyue Residence, he had seen Ziyuan raising many flowers and plants, which would attract butterflies from time to time.
At that time, he also joked that Ziyuan was the reincarnation of the Flower Fairy, otherwise how could it attract such beautiful butterflies!
Now that I think about it carefully, Ziyuan's behavior is very strange.
Hongyan said that they took a boat in a circle, and then the time slowed down. They didn't realize it before, but now they think about it, there is a big problem.
I am afraid that I am deliberately trying to "encounter" His Highness the Fourth and others by chance, and take the opportunity to do harm to His Highness! It was only because she accidentally met him as a reinforcement and disembarked from the ship after entering the Han River that she failed to succeed.
When he arrived in Xiangzhou, she appeared again and lured him out of the inn with a poem.
In this way, there will be another opportunity to take advantage of.
But this time, she succeeded.
But Zi Yuan is just a brothel girl, so what reason would she have to harm the fourth prince?
so……
Who is she doing for?
What is her true identity?
With doubts, Li Nuo stalked after the figure.
But when they arrived at the lake, the figure actually jumped up and threw towards the center of the lake!
Li Nuo couldn't see anyone escaping, so he slashed away with his knife.
Pfft——
The two figures fell miserably from the air and rolled to the edge of the lake. Half of their bodies were plunged into the lake, but they didn't even struggle for a breath and stopped moving.
Li Nuo rushed to the lake.
The corpse now had changes. A long fin grew out of its back, and there were also fins from its thighs to its heels.
It’s actually a human rooster!
Li Nuo turned the body over again, but couldn't find any useful clues. Finally, he shook his head in disappointment and returned to the inn.
But a moment later, a small insect crawled out of the corpse's mouth. It resembled a ladybug, but was larger and darker in color. Then it shook its body, spread its wings and flew into the night sky.
after.
The policemen from the government came over and controlled the road from the inn to the center of the lake...
"Zian, although His Highness is not in danger of life, he is still unconscious. We must rush back to Chang'an as soon as possible..."
Seeing Li Nuo coming back, Zhennan Bo said anxiously.
If the prince really has some shortcomings, the others will be fine, but his military honors will definitely not bring good results, and it will be trivial to lose his title.
This time when he went south, investigating the case was secondary to him. His biggest responsibility was to protect the fourth prince.
"There are people from the government office, I have sent them away."
Qin Fusu said.
As a civil servant, Wang Jincheng had different thoughts from Qin Fusu and Zhennan Bo, so he said: "I think it is better to inform the magistrate of Xiangzhou about this matter. With his help, His Highness will be able to return to Chang'an safely. Yes. Okay, Zian, did you find any clues when you went out just now?"
"Just now I chased after him and found a man. He was trying to escape into the lake, but I killed him first."
That human Ji Cai's [ninth-grade physical body] could not be Li Nuo's enemy with one sword. After his death, he only provided Li Nuo with one [Elementary Experience Pill], which increased his internal strength by a thousand points.
Better than nothing.
"It's just humans again, these monsters are really evil!"
Uncle Zhennan became angry and cursed.
Li Nuo's face showed a solemn expression: "If it were just human beings, we would naturally have nothing to fear. But the witchcraft is hard to guard against. We'd better set off back to Chang'an overnight. Editor Wang, I have to trouble you to use [The Legend of Flying Crane"] Letter] inform Chang'an to prepare for the response. If nothing happens, we will be able to reach Chang'an before dawn."
"Uncle Zhennan, Master Qin, do you also have this idea?"
Wang Jincheng asked.
Qin Fusu nodded: "If a rogue sneaks into Xiangzhou, the prefect must be guilty of negligence. Now that we have been exposed, Xiangzhou may not be safe, so we should return to Chang'an as soon as possible."
"Yes, His Highness is unconscious now. He must seek medical treatment quickly. One more moment of delay will mean one more moment of danger."
Uncle Zhennan thought so, but in fact he really didn't have much favorable impression of civil servants.
The minority obeys the majority.
Wang Jincheng could only obey everyone's wishes.
So the group packed up for a while, spent money to find a carriage, and quickly headed towards the north gate of Xiangzhou.
When the old horse demon lurked outside the city gate saw this, he immediately ran up and said with a flattering smile: "Sir, didn't you say we will set off tomorrow?"
"Plans have changed, let's leave now."
Li Nuo responded.
The group of people hurriedly mounted their horses, flying in the dust.
…
An inn in Xiangzhou City.
"Miss, are you okay?"
Looking at the pale Ziyuan on the couch, Hongyan felt distressed.
"It doesn't matter, just take a rest for a night."
Ziyuan forced a smile.
"On the contrary, Mr. Li is too cruel..."
Hongyan's brows were filled with sorrow and resentment.
At this moment, she complained about Li Zian again.
You must know that the black butterfly was the natal Gu butterfly that Zi Yuan fed with blood and essence. With this death, Zi Yuan also suffered extremely serious backlash.
"Li Lang doesn't know the truth, so how can you blame him?"
Even now, Zi Yuan is still protecting Li Nuo.
She did miss a little bit.
He never expected that Li Nuo would become so strong. He could detect her Gu Butterfly just by using his senses. He even looked for the Gu Butterfly's aura and almost found her.
Fortunately, she used a heart worm to control a man and lure him away, otherwise her identity would have been exposed.
How should she face Li Nuo?
"well……"
Hongyan sighed helplessly.
It feels really uncomfortable to have your destiny in someone else's hands.
Zi Yuan sighed and said: "Fortunately, the task assigned by the Lord has finally been completed. If there is no accident, the fourth prince will have to be in coma for at least a month before he wakes up, which is enough for the Lord to arrange things."
"Then we still want to go to Chang'an?"
Hongyan was a little scared.
"You've already done this, how can you not go?" Zi Yuan said with a smile, "Didn't you girl want to see the palace? After you realize your wish, we will go to the countryside to find a courtyard with beautiful mountains and clear waters. Stay here and live an ordinary life. Whether it's the world or the court, it's none of our business."
Hongyan still didn't believe it, her eyes showed timidity: "Sir, will you really let us go?"
"The Black Gu Butterfly is dead, my strength is greatly damaged, and I won't be able to live for long. If you want to do big things, how can you take me as an abandoned son in your eyes?"
Zi Yuan covered her heart, feeling a little bitter.
The black Gu butterfly is her life Gu!
But he was killed by Li Lang with one strike...
Hongyan couldn't bear to say: "Miss, don't say anything depressing. The life poison is gone. As long as you don't use witchcraft, you can still live like an ordinary person."
"Ahem, don't worry, he won't die just yet. Let's wait for two days and then go to Chang'an."
Zi Yuan forced a smile.
