Chapter 124 Grasshopper on a rope
Chapter 124 Grasshopper on a rope
The next day, Luo Yu stayed in the yard and did not go out.
He said he was brewing a new manuscript.
For this purpose, Murong was specially asked to come to Piaolingshe to write manuscripts.
Luo Yu also understood that Master Murong's fighting ability should not be low. He was wearing black clothes at the time but was stabbed by the enemy. He was probably not a serious scholar.
I wonder when Prince Ning and his personal guards will enter this house? Whether they go through the main gate or climb the wall, they must be cautious.
After waiting for a whole day, the person didn't show up, so Luo Yu quickly wrote several suspense outlines.
As Murong reorganized the outline into a story, he couldn't help but wonder, how could this girl have so many murder methods in her head? If she could do something to kill someone without being caught, wouldn't it be extremely easy?
Seeing that he looked unhappy, Luo Yu asked with concern, "What's wrong, Master Murong? Is it because the story is too creepy and disgusting?"
Murong looked at her, not knowing whether she was truly concerned or just asking casually. In any case, he couldn't see her emotional fluctuations.
"No, I've already written at least twenty short stories. When will this mystery novel be finished?"
Luo Yu remained silent. If he wanted to leave, he had to run the restaurant well first, and then save some outline drafts of the books to be sold and give them to Prince Rui, and he also had to save more drawings.
In this case, we still have to wait.
"It shouldn't be long. Don't worry. If you want to stay then, I won't force you to stay."
"I don't want to stay." Murong said weakly. If it weren't for the sword, he wouldn't want to stay even for a day longer.
"Oh, by the way, today's stories are a bit creepy. You can add a sentence before the story: This story is purely fictional. Any similarity is purely coincidental!"
"..."
When it was dark, after dinner, Murong prepared to say goodbye and return to the inn.
Luo Yu racked his brains and had to keep this person.
"Master Murong, how about we work overtime tonight to finish the rest of the storybook in advance, and then give you a day off?"
“Why should I write it in advance?”
Murong always felt that the more innocent this young woman looked, the more cunning she was.
He had to stay away from him, as he still remembered clearly the last time he bumped into him and indirectly pushed Guan Sangongzi into the river.
This is the first time in my life that a woman has used me for evil.
It seems that because of the incident of falling into the water, Master Guan San is now afraid to go out. I have seen him several times and always felt that he was depressed and taciturn.
Murong packed up his things and was about to rush out.
But he saw a big white tiger blocking the door.
"Master Murong, there's no need to worry. I'm just asking you to watch the fun tonight. Are you sure you don't want to stay?"
"Is she being chased again?" When Murong thought of the excitement, he knew that she had bad intentions.
"No, I'm just worried that someone might come to see Baihu tonight and something might happen to her. Look how much Baihu likes you, how could you bear to see her get hurt?"
"Then why don't you ask Yan Xuan and the other two guys to help?"
Of course he couldn't call him that. Yan Xuan must have seen His Royal Highness Prince Ning. If he recognized him, wouldn't it make the situation even more chaotic?
Maybe Yan Xuan will even side with Prince Ning. If they join forces to take Baihu away, they will be no match for him.
"Murong, please go away! I thought you were our friend, but I didn't expect you to be so heartless."
"..."
Trying to kidnap him with moral sentiment is impossible.
I've been writing a lot of her storybooks recently, and I realized that there's also the method of using morality and friendship to force others to make sacrifices. This trick is very useful for people with high moral standards.
It is not very useful to him, Murong Huaijin.
Seeing that he really left, Luo Yu's eyes rolled.
Walking up to him, he asked mysteriously, "This time, a big shot is here. Are you not interested?"
"If I know too many of your secrets, will there be no good outcome?"
Luo Yu was stunned. He didn't expect him to be so self-aware.
"This is not my secret, it's Baihu's secret. They came here to hunt down Baihu, and I came here to protect him."
"Why do you want to protect the white tiger?" Murong finally asked the question he had always wanted to know.
He always felt that the woman in front of him could communicate with the white tiger.
The first time he was stabbed and fled to the woods, it was this white girl who took away his sword. The aura beside her at that time should have been that of the White Tiger.
Although he was unconscious, he could still vaguely hear a woman talking to someone. The voice of the white tiger was low and hoarse. Thinking about it carefully now, she should be talking to the white tiger.
"Well, I can tell you the truth, but please don't tell anyone else.
This is amazing. It should be attributed to the fact that Miss Qin and I are gifted and can communicate with animals. Although it is not absolutely possible, it is not a big problem for a spiritual beast like the white tiger.
Now this matter is known only to heaven, earth, you, me, and Miss Qin. Please don't leak it to me. You know, if this matter were to be known by people with bad intentions, Miss Qin and I would be treated as monsters and end up in trouble. "
Murong was speechless. If he had known this earlier, he would not have listened.
When it comes to secrets, the more you know, the worse the outcome will be.
"You already know that I'm not Miss Bai, so are you afraid of knowing one more secret? Anyway, no matter what, you are now in the same group with me and Miss Qin. Don't even think about betraying each other."
"..."
This woman, unable to use moral blackmail, resorted to threats.
Is Murong Huaijin so easily threatened?
"Do you still want to know who is coming tonight?"
"Do not want to."
Luo Yu chuckled and didn't stop him.
Let him go.
After he left, Xia Liang asked Luo Yu: "Sister, are you sure His Royal Highness Prince Ning will come tonight?"
"uncertain."
……
Zhu Jinyou stayed in the library and chess and card room all day, and he also bought the "Wutian Chuan" that a group of people were watching. He gave one or two taels of silver to anyone who was holding it and reading it.
As he looked at it, he discovered that among the weapons inside, there was actually a compound crossbow. Although the drawing was only a rough sketch, if he didn't have this thing in his hand, Zhu Jinyou would have thought that "The Legend of Wutian" was just a whimsical comic strip.
He tried the glasses, and although they didn't work, many people present said they did. Someone pulled out a copy of "100,000 Whys" and showed him how the lenses worked, explaining it quite clearly.
Like Wen Shanchang, Zhu Jinyou began to suspect that the world in this comic strip might be real.
He became more and more interested in the identities of Qin Bingrui and Qin Luohong, and even sent someone to take the signature page of Miss Bai to investigate the handwriting. Is she the same person as the original Concubine Ying?
He also sent people to Wangzhou to inquire whether the former Jiang family had received any letters or news from Jiang Qiuning.
Late at night, when everyone was asleep, he and Song Si appeared under the wall of Fang's mansion.
Feiying came out and explained the location of "Piaolingshe" to the two of them, then waited quietly outside.
