Tao Rongtian received the report and rushed to the dense forest with his people. He saw only corpses lying on the ground. The scene was horrific. He asked the soldiers to clean up and brought them back to the city. They posted notices to inquire about the origin of the deceased. Soon there was a report, saying that the deceased was
The beloved maid of a girl in Deyuelou was about to marry a scholar in the city. She encountered a wolf in the dense forest. As a result, the groom's horse was frightened, and his family, drummer master and sedan bearers ran away, leaving only the bride and a few maids.
The result was destruction.
Tao Rongtian notified the groom's official to the government office and inquired about it. The groom was also an honest scholar. He only said that he met Xiaocui by chance and was attracted by her beauty. Xiaocui also admired the scholar's talent, so he gave the scholar some gold and silver to help himself.
He wanted to redeem himself, but he didn't want to encounter a wolf in the forest when he was getting married. The groom was also very sad.
Tao Rongtian asked strangely: "Why do you have to pass through the forest?"
The groom said: "Miss Xiaocui's home is outside the city, so I went to pick her up and planned to go back to the city through the dense forest at noon to worship. After the groom finished speaking, he couldn't stop crying and begged the general to send troops.
Go and kill the wolves in the forest.
Tao Rongtian looked at the groom's sadness and it didn't seem to be fake, so he asked some other questions and sent him to claim the body and go back for a safe burial first.
Tao Rongtian secretly thought to himself that this matter was definitely not like what the groom and the people in the market had said. The wolves only hurt people and only bit them. Although the seven female corpses left in the forest had also been bitten and eaten by wolves and dogs,
But the whole body was torn apart, which cannot be torn apart by evil wolves. Moreover, there were still a few delicate soft swords left on the ground, and the bride's sedan chair was also torn apart. A few wild wolves could eat people and destroy a sedan chair.
It's unbelievable.
Although Tao Rongtian was confused, he would not look for trouble. Since he believed that it was a wolf that hurt people, he sent people to find some hunters in the surrounding villages. The soldiers followed the hunters in the forest to hunt.
Over many days, I managed to capture a few wild wolves, foxes and badgers, and brought them to the city, where they were beaten to death by the people, and that was the end of the matter.
King Wuyou met Gu Yuetian on the day of the incident. Gu Yuetian hid a sword and returned to the Qi army camp. He met King Wuyou directly and told the story: It turned out that he and Peng Yunzhan privately interrogated the Wolf King that day.
The eldest disciple found out who the eldest disciple was and learned his behavior, appearance, and voice. He pretended to be that eldest disciple and went into the prison to rob the prison. Peng Yunzhan assisted him outside and rescued the other six disciples of the Wolf King.
A few days later, the Wolf King came back again, and Gu Yuetian followed the Wolf King out to harm people for fun. Unexpectedly, the team welcoming the bride was actually designed to trap and kill the Wolf King, and the person pretending to be the bride was actually the girl beside Xinyi
The maid Xiaocui.
Gu Yuetian said that when he saw Xiao Cui, he was shocked.
King Wuyou also frowned when he heard this, and said: "It seems that there is some truth in **'s suspicion. This girl Xinyi is by no means a simple brothel girl. Then go on." After that, Gu Yuetian asked
Then go on.
Gu Yuetian told how several women fought with the Wolf King. Xiaocui injured the Wolf King with his sword, and then took the opportunity to kill the Wolf King. Then he left the other six disciples of the Wolf King, making them mistakenly believe that
He is the master who was killed by the eldest disciple.
After saying that, he handed the sword to King Wuyou. King Wuyou didn't care, he just glanced at it and said, "This is the Longquan Sword. It rarely appears here. The sword matches the hero, so keep it well."
Gu Yuetian also laughed and said, "If you want it, just bring out something good in exchange for it!" After saying that, he carefully wrapped it with a cloth, tucked it away and walked out. King Wuyou looked at his back, shook his head and chuckled.
He stood and whispered: "You thief!"
It was almost noon, and King Wuyou was about to have a meal with the generals in the tent. The soldiers came in and reported that there was a young master outside the camp gate who wanted to see him. Lu Zheng looked at King Wuyou to see if he wanted to send him away. King Wuyou smiled.
Question: "Are you extremely handsome?"
The soldier who reported the incident raised his hands and replied: "Back to your lord, yes!"
"Then please come in! I guess it's time for her to come too." King Wuyou said, signaling to the generals to eat first and go out for a while.
King Wuyou walked outside the tent and slowly went to the camp gate to greet him. From a distance, he saw a frail young man dressed in plain clothes walking into the camp. As he got closer, he could see that it was the girl Xinyi.
When Xinyi saw King Wuyou coming out to greet him, she held her hands in greeting from a distance. When she walked to King Wuyou, she smiled and said, "Mr. Qi, you deceived me so hard."
King Wuyou made an invitation gesture, and then led her to a side tent. After entering the tent, Lu Zheng pulled down the curtain and stood guard outside. King Wuyou asked Xinyi to sit down, and then asked
He said, "Miss Xinyi, why do you want to come to my camp?"
Xinyi first looked around, then said with a smile: "I also think that you, Mr. Qi, are not an ordinary businessman, but I didn't expect that you are actually the world-famous King Wuyou! The little girl was disrespectful and rude earlier." After finishing speaking.
I met King Wuyou again.
King Wuyou waved his hand and said: "Miss Xinyi, please don't be polite. You are by no means an ordinary woman. If my guess is correct, you should be the daughter of a prince and important official of some country?!"
Xinyi smiled lightly and said, "If I say that I am a princess, would you believe it?"
King Wuyou raised his eyebrows slightly and asked: "Princess Xinyi? You look familiar to me. We must have met before, right?"
Xinyi smiled and said: "Okay, Your Majesty, there is no need to guess. I just heard what Your Majesty said and just said it casually!"
Seeing that she refused to reveal her identity, King Wuyou stopped asking further and asked instead: "It's already noon. Miss Xinyi must not have eaten yet. Why don't you let me invite you to go out to the restaurant while you are there?"
Let’s talk while eating?”
Xinyi turned her eyes and thought about it, nodded and said: "Okay, I'm worried about having no place to eat!"
King Wuyou and Xinyi walked out of the camp and said to Lu Zheng: "Prepare the horses and come with me to find a restaurant in the city." Lu Zheng agreed, then turned around to prepare the horses. King Wuyou and Xinyi slowly walked to the camp.
Go to the door.
Along the way, Xinyi and King Wuyou walked side by side in front, and Lu Zheng followed with two guards. The two of them just looked at the scenery on both sides of the streets in the capital and said some insignificant words. But they were thinking in their hearts.
How to explore the other person’s thoughts.
As King Wuyou walked, he said, "Miss Xinyi should be familiar with this place. Just lead the way."
Xinyi said casually: "Isn't the prince familiar with this place?"
King Wuyou pondered for a moment, then smiled and said: "I spent some time in most of these cities when I was a child and made friends with many friends. But at that time, I was young and the places I went were restricted, so I was really not familiar with it.
!”
Xinyi also chuckled and said, "I heard from sister Ying'er that you also brought her here!"
King Wuyou said "Oh" and said: "Haha, she is not willing to tell you anything. I came with her once, but we came and went in a hurry. I do remember that there is a restaurant nearby, called Yingcui.
It’s nice, the store is clean, and the surrounding scenery is great.”
Xinyi pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "The prince and sister Ying'er remember clearly the places they visited, but they just don't seem to remember others."
After hearing this, King Wuyou remained calm, as if he was looking for a restaurant, and then pointed to the front and said, "That's it!"
A few people went upstairs. King Wuyou and Xinyi found a private room facing the street, and they sat down. When the waiter saw the person coming with soldiers, he knew he must be an honored guest, so he quickly came up to serve him attentively.
King Wuyou smiled and said, "Go and tell the shopkeeper to cook some of your signature dishes, and then bring over a pot of your home-brewed wine."
The waiter saw that this prince was quite familiar with the details of his house, so he knew he must be a regular customer. But he looked unfamiliar, so he thought about it and ran down quickly, shouting: "Good wine and good food will be served upstairs."
Xinyi looked at King Wuyou and said, "You seem to be a regular visitor here!"
King Wuyou said "grace", and then said: "My title of Dandy Prince is not for nothing. I am the one who best remembers the delicious and fun places in China."
Xinyi turned her head and looked at Lu Zheng and the guards standing at the door, and said to King Wuyou: "Let them go and have something to eat. We have to wait for a while. You, a prince, must be considerate of your subordinates."
King Wuyou knew that she wanted to say something to him, and he didn't want Lu Zheng to hear him. He nodded and said, "General Lu, you and them go to eat by yourself. If I need anything, I will call you. There is no need to wait here."
."
Lu Zheng responded and went downstairs with two guards.
Seeing that she and King Wuyou were alone in the room, Xinyi said, "My lord, do you have any doubts about me?"
When King Wuyou heard Xinyi's question, he looked surprised and asked back: "Why does Miss Xinyi ask like this? Miss Xinyi is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she is beautiful and talented.
Moreover, it is not easy to keep oneself clean and respect oneself in a fireworks place. And you get along with my wife, how can I doubt you?"
Xinyi's face darkened, and she said softly: "Xinyi thanked the prince for his compliments. I guess the prince should also know that my maid Xiaocui got married a few days ago and was killed in the woods outside the city." After saying that, a pair of
Beautiful eyes looked at King Ashoka.
King Wuyou also looked back at Xinyi, nodded and said, "I heard that General Tao Rongtian from the city defense office sent someone to say it. The girl must have been sad to lose her maid who had been serving her all year round. I feel sorry for her too."
Seeing that there were no traces on King Wuyou's face, Xinyi continued: "It is rumored that he was injured by a wild wolf. What do you think, Your Majesty?"
King Wuyou's face became ugly and he asked coldly: "What does Miss Xinyi mean by asking this?"
Seeing that King Wuyou was unhappy, Xinyi hurriedly explained: "I want to tell the prince that my maid was not killed by some wild wolf, she was killed by another evil wolf." King Wuyou heard this.
Just a faint 'oh'.
Xinyi continued: "Your Majesty must have heard of the Northern Barbarian Wolf King, one of the three demon kings!"
King Wuyou nodded slightly and said, "I have heard something."
Xinyi said: "Xiaocui was harmed by him." After saying that, seeing that King Wuyou was really listening to her words seriously, she continued: "To be honest, Your Majesty, in the past few days, murders of young women have occurred in Dadu City.
I sent people to find out what the Wolf King did. In order to get rid of this demon, I sent Xiao Cui to trap him and kill him."
When King Wuyou heard this, he looked at Xinyi intently and asked: "Then you have never thought about how she, a weak woman, could kill the Wolf King, and now she has lost her life in vain." After saying this, he sighed.
One sound.
Xinyi was also a little sad and said: "Although Xiao Cui was killed by the Wolf King. After he was discovered, I also sent people to the forest to check. Xiao Cui and the others were definitely not the only ones who were killed or injured. The Wolf King must have also been injured."
King Wuyou said "Oh" and asked, "Why do you see it?"
