Chapter 542: Tracking
Time turns back to not long ago.
"Xu——"
There was a long whistle and the horses stopped.
The secret envoy of Mingjiange holding a torch turned around and said loudly: "Master Commander! Lord Ning! It should be here!"
The emissary on horseback jumped off his horse and stood on the top of the mountain, looking at the long dragon-like team with torches down the hillside.
The firelight illuminated the hundreds of Mingjiange secret envoys and Pai Shulou scholars, as well as the three people at the end of the team.
"Finally, finally found it!"
At the end of the team, Yue Heng looked pale and struggled to lie on the horse, but his face was full of joy: "Master Li, Ning Sir, let's go quickly..."
Before he finished speaking, his expression suddenly changed, he jumped off the horse and hugged a tree, and vomited loudly. got up.
Li Jingzhe and Ning Wuwang looked at each other, both of them looking helpless.
“This Mr. Yue seems to have never ridden a horse.”
Ning Wuwang smiled slightly and said softly: “Come here, help Mr. Yue and be gentle for him. Angry."
"Yes."
On the side, two scholar-looking people jumped off their horses and took care of Yue Heng very carefully, patting him on the back. He also fed him some pills.
They are the people who work in Pai Shulou of Mingjiang Pavilion, and are also called "book guests".
In the past, most of them were responsible for the clerical and logistical work in Mingjian Pavilion. Of course, those who can enter Pai Shulou and become book guests are all practitioners of magic, and naturally they often do Emissaries on missions provide magical assistance.
Watching Yue Heng gradually regain his breath, Li Jingzhe finally spoke leisurely: "Mr. Yue, let's take a quick look at the specific location of the target."
"Okay... Okay."
Puffing hard, Yue Heng took out a scroll from his arms and unfolded it in his hands.
It was a landscape and ink painting. The ink in the painting was alive and surging, eventually flowing and combining to form a brand new landscape painting. And everything in the painting was actually the same as the one they were in. This mountain forest is exactly the same!
Not only that, the painting even outlines their large team of hundreds of people, and even the torches they hold in their hands are vividly depicted in the painting.
Yue Heng breathed out gently and recited a mantra.
He sent a message to Concubine Zi before, and he didn't wait long for a reply from the palace - the one who came to contact him was an old eunuch.
The old eunuch bowed respectfully to him, nodded and waved his hand, and a group of young eunuchs followed closely behind him, presenting each magic weapon and documents recording their usage.
The most important one is this map.
According to the requirements recorded in the document, Yue Heng asked Si Yu to hold the map and lit the talisman that could locate Qiu Chan. Then the mountains and water on the map appeared faintly. Pointing to the mountains and forests about thirty miles northwest of the capital city.
After he determined the location, the old eunuch squinted his eyes, wrinkled his orange-skinned face, and told him softly that the entire Mingjiang Pavilion's current elites were waiting for him to go on the road together...
Yue Heng vaguely knew that Fu Qingzhou seemed to be involved in a huge conspiracy behind the Wuli Village he was investigating.
But... this conspiracy seems to be bigger than he imagined!
So, without thinking much, he immediately agreed to the old eunuch's request, climbed onto the horse brought by the eunuchs with great difficulty, and hurriedly met up with Mingjiang Pavilion. After that, he ran all the way to this place.
As for the sisters and sisters at Ziqi Xianfeng Temple...
According to the old eunuch, Mingjiange's affairs involve serious court cases, and irrelevant people are not allowed to participate...
Along the way, Yue Heng relied on the scroll in his hand to repeatedly determine the position of Qiu Chan and the others. The positioning became more and more precise, and finally they landed on the top of the mountain in front of them. At this time, the mantra in his mouth settled down, and a ray of light slowly flashed on the painting circle, like a small firefly that landed on the scroll, stopping at the top of the mountain.
"This is it!"
His eyes lit up and he spoke decisively.
Li Jingzhe and Ning Wuwang heard the words and showed understanding expressions.
"Mr. Yue."
Ning Wuwu smiled and said: "You are not feeling well, so please stay here for a while, and I and Mr. Li will go forward to check it out first."
< br>
Li Jingzhe also said slowly: "There is nothing on the top of this mountain. Most of the people we are looking for are in the mountain below... We have to go deep into it. I'm afraid it will take some effort. Mr. Yue will wait a moment."
Yue Heng knew their status and knew that he could not help at the moment, so naturally he did not dare to have any opinions and quickly handed them over.
Li and Ning each waved their hands, and the emissaries and calligraphers swarmed up the hill. They each used their skills to investigate what was special about the hill.
"Master Li."
After walking a little further, Ning Wuwang said softly: "The emperor actually personally issued an order for us to temporarily obey Mr. Yue's words and come to find someone. Looking for clues, and this Mr. Yue seems to have been involved in the Jin Chan Temple incident last time.”
"He is the person next to Fu Qingzhou." Li Jingzhe said leisurely: "I hurt a boy of the Lan family and was imprisoned before, and he also got involved with our Mingjiang Pavilion. You have also been included in the library, have you forgotten?"
< br>"Haha, when you said that, I remembered it."
Ning Wu smiled and said: "It seems that this Fu Qingzhou and his friends have climbed to the emperor's high branches. He's going to soar into the sky."
"Hmph."
Li Jingzhe snorted: "Before he climbed up to His Majesty, he had already had a very good relationship with your sister, even the Xiangjian Master. He was also ordered to investigate the case, which you should know.”
"Of course I know." Ning Wuwang still maintained a faint smile: "It seems that it won't be long before this Fu Shaoxia and this Mr. Yue will become our colleagues in the DPRK and China."
Speak In the meantime, the two of them had already rode their horses to the top of the mountain.
A group of emissaries and calligraphers have been tossing here for a long time. Seeing them coming, several people came closer.
"Tell me, what did you find?"
Li Jingzhe asked condescendingly, sitting on horseback.
"Your Majesty." A secret envoy saluted and said, "As my colleagues at Jingpai Library tell me, there should be an ancient tomb in this mountain."
"Ancient tomb?"
Li Jingzhe was a little confused. Surprise: "Who would build a tomb so close to the capital? Is the feng shui good here?"
"Haha, it's not good." Ning Wu smiled and said: "On the contrary, the situation on this mountain is scattered , if the dragon's veins are not gathered together, it is difficult to retain the vitality... Although the mountain is steep, it does not hide the wind and gather the energy. Instead, it is scattered and released. This is a bad luck in Feng Shui."
"The cemetery is originally a graveyard. It is a peaceful place, but this mountain tomb can easily be occupied by traitors, making it difficult to preserve it, and it is even more likely to cause the loss of descendants. ”
When Li Jingzhe heard this, he said "Oh" and raised his eyebrows: "Interesting, it seems that a traitor has occupied the ancient tomb here and is doing something..."
He looked at it Ning Wuwang glanced at him, and the latter nodded slightly to him.
The two reached a consensus, and Li Jingzhe ordered in a deep voice: "Then don't delay, use the fastest speed to open the passage from here to the ancient tomb!"
