Ji Yi and Xiao Se walked for a long time and finally arrived at the South City Gate.
The south of the city is the most desolate place in Changsha. Most of the traders go north. The port is over there. The east of the city is where the rich live. There is a market in the west of the city. Only in the south of the city, most of the people living here are farmers. In the city
There are fields for farming outside.
This zoning division is quite reasonable, but most people in the south of the city have become victims.
The security here is also the most chaotic. When Ji Yi was patrolling at night, he liked to run here the most because there were so many ghosts here. He could also catch some thieves and robbers and practice his skills.
A curfew has been implemented in the city for some time now. At night, Changsha City is basically dark, and now only the four city gates are still lit.
Lin Yi rarely stood on the tower and looked into the distance. Defending the city was the responsibility of the county soldiers, not Jingyesi.
It's just that the situation is complicated now, and Jingyesi's experts are needed to support the situation, which is equivalent to the foreign aid of the county soldiers.
Looking outside the city, we can see a large river with wide waves flowing into the distance with no end in sight.
Lin Yi grew up on the banks of the Xiangjiang River. Looking at the river now, it seems the same but not the same, just like the waning moon in the sky.
At this moment, he could better understand the emotions contained in the poem "Spring River Flower Moonlight Night".
Who on the bank of the river sees the moon for the first time, and when does the moon on the river shine on people for the first time? Life is endless from generation to generation, and the moon on the river looks the same every year.
"The moon is much brighter now."
Lin Yi muttered to himself, and Xiao Se couldn't help but tilted his head and asked: "It's the first quarter moon, and it's not very bright, right?"
"You are looking at the moon, but I am not looking at it."
Xiao Se is even more confused. Are there two moons in the sky?
She looked up at the sky for a while, unable to figure out what the mystery was in Lin Yi's words.
Ji Yi's gaze once again looked far into the distance. His vision could be maximized at high altitudes, and he could see things in the dark as if they were daylight.
Originally he was just taking a casual look, thinking he was seeing the magnificent scenery of mountains and rivers, but he saw many birds hovering over a forest in the distance.
To give a rough estimate of the distance, it's about forty miles away.
His line of sight was blocked by the trees, and Ji Yi didn't underestimate what was going on in the forest. He had no choice but to let go of the restrictions on listening, and after signaling for silence, he began to listen.
Not long after, he heard someone talking in the forest.
"The Crown Prince's strength is unfathomable, but his sworn brother is just a small-time catcher, and he probably doesn't have much ability. If the Crown Prince really cares about her brother, catching him can intimidate the Crown Prince."
"Tomorrow, we will send people to report the case, and then set up an ambush here to make sure that Lin Yi never comes back."
Ji Yi's expression suddenly became very strange.
What kind of miraculous luck does he have? Every time someone wants to deal with him, he finds out before the plan is implemented.
This time it was even more outrageous. He was just casually looking around when he saw the bird. After discovering something was wrong, he used his extraordinary hearing and heard the conspiracy forty miles away.
He put away his extraordinary hearing, and Xiao Se also saw that he was probably done, so he asked: "What's wrong?"
"Nothing."
Ji Yi thought about it and decided not to tell Xiao Se directly that someone was trying to harm him, so as not to frighten him or make him sad.
The other party called him Prince and called out his name, so he was definitely coming for Xiao Se.
They are probably members of Xiao Se's own family. Xiao Se is the heir apparent. Maybe he has some older brothers and so on who are all coveting her position, so they want to get rid of him?
Being born into a princely family, although one is rich and powerful, it is not necessarily a happy one.
Ji Yi then thought that he would take care of those people later, and after the investigation came out, it would not be too late to come back and tell him if he knew who wanted to harm Xiao Se.
"You watch the city gate carefully. I'll go and take a rest. If there's any danger, pinch the ghost charm first, and then use the twig to call me."
Originally, Ji Yi wanted to get the Ghost Talisman back, but now it seems that Xiao Se's situation is not good, so let's let her use it first. He Dong can coax her well and the matter will be over.
"oh."
Xiao Se felt that Lin Yi was strange. He watched him go down the tower and couldn't help but take out the statuette to play with.
Wuyun's carving is really good. He made a very similar carving to Lin Yi. You can reward him with a bag of dried fish later.
Speaking of which, this little lazy cat should get up now!
She took out a copper whistle and blew it. Not long after, a black cat nimbly jumped up to the top of the city and arrived at the watchtower where Xiao Se was, with a crow in its mouth.
"Wuyun, you're trying to catch birds again!"
Wu Yun quickly spat out the crow and explained: "I didn't catch the bird for fun. This crow was very strange and seemed to be observing you, so I killed it."
Hearing this, Xiao Se also squatted down, picked up the crow and checked it. He saw that there was not much blood on its neck. He squeezed the crow's body again. It felt cold and stiff, and then asked: "When did you find this crow?"
"Not long before you blew the whistle."
"It seems that this is a puppet, and Master Yan is eyeing us."
Xiao Se created a ball of fire in his hand and burned the crow's body to ashes.
Wu Yun said nervously: "How about we run away? Since the news has been leaked, there will definitely be a steady stream of enemies coming. The prince has made countless enemies outside. There are many in the Northern Dynasty who are eager to get rid of the prince. There is nothing they can do about the prince.
, I will definitely attack you!"
"Don't be afraid, just let them come. Do you think my father asked me to come to this remote country just for experience?"
Xiao Se's last words immediately made Wuyun think deeply. He shook his head repeatedly and said: "Impossible. Your Majesty only has one heir. How could you put yourself in danger?"
"The child is gone, you can have another one, do you understand?"
"Will not……"
Wuyun's cat's face was full of shock. It couldn't believe that the prince would do such a thing.
Tiger poison doesn’t even eat seeds!
"There is no need to discuss this matter. In short, we just need to wait for the enemy to come over. It is not that easy to kill me! With my strength, there are few opponents in the world."
"Didn't you let a ghost beat you yesterday?"
Wu Yun told the truth, and when Xiao Se heard the words, he was so angry that he grabbed the back of his neck.
"Why am I at a disadvantage? It's because you are such a loser and you have been practicing for four hundred years in vain. I have only been practicing for eighteen years and I am better than you. You should be ashamed!"
"You can practice so quickly because you are..."
Halfway through Wu Yun's words, he suddenly bit his tongue.
"What am I?"
Xiao Se felt a little strange, Wu Yun quickly said: "You are the prince, born to be powerful, I am just an ordinary kitten, how can I compare with you?"
"You are self-aware."
Xiao Se touched Wu Yun's head and took out the wood carving.
I don’t know what Lin Yi did, and he hasn’t come back yet...
Ji Yi was already running very fast. He ran with all his strength, at a speed of about two hundred kilometers per hour. In less than ten minutes, he jumped into the forest. At this moment, a group of masked men were still having a meeting and discussing.
How will we arrest Lin Yi tomorrow, and how will we intimidate Xiao Se after he is arrested?
Overall, the plan is quite thorough.
However, they seem to have overlooked the most important point, that is, they have not understood Ji Yi's strength.
What's wrong with the little catcher? Can't the little catcher stop cheating?
Ji Yi listened quietly for a while, but no one noticed his presence. The leading masked man looked around and said: "Okay, this is the plan. Do you have any questions?"
"If the prince doesn't care what Ji Yi does, wouldn't our work be in vain?"
When these words were asked, the people in black were stunned for a moment.
Yes, if the brotherhood between Xiao Se and Lin Yi is fake, wouldn't their work be in vain?
When the leader heard this, he immediately became unhappy. He looked towards the speaker and saw that he was not even wearing a hijab. He immediately used the topic and said, "Who are you? Have you forgotten the rules? If you don't wear a hijab, your identity is exposed."
what to do?"
"My name is Lin Yi."
"Ji Yi? Ji Lin Yi!"
The leading masked man immediately realized, isn't this the person Gu Yanshi ordered to arrest?
Isn't he defending the city? Why is he here?
"Catch him, he is Ji Yi!"
Lin Yi couldn't help but shook his head. This person didn't seem very smart.
With three punches and two kicks, Lin Yi beat all the men in black to the ground.
"Tell me, who are you? Who sent you?"
The leading masked man shouted righteously: "You can't even ask a single word from our mouths. Brothers, the time has come to die for His Royal Highness King Hui!"
Lin Yi: “…”
Brother, are you kidding me with this?
He squatted down and took off the man's mask, and found that black blood was flowing out of the corner of his mouth. It was clear that he had hidden a poison bag in his mouth, and was ready to die at any time.
This poison is also very powerful. It only takes a few breaths for a person to twitch and become unable to move. This is the first time that Ji Yi has seen such a dead man.
There were ten masked men present. Lin Yi untied their masks one by one and discovered that they had all prepared poison.
"King Hui? Do you really think I'm easy to deceive?"
Ji Yi didn't believe that what he shouted was true. How could such an idiot become the leader of an action team?
Are everyone else mentally retarded?
The other party is likely to be well prepared, and everything will be fine if he succeeds. If he fails, he will bite someone, which can both sow discord and divert attention.
It's just that the method is not very clever, and it's a bit insulting to people's intelligence.
However, it cannot be ruled out that he deliberately played this counter-trick. In short, everyone is dead now.
Ji Yi checked everyone and didn't see anything particularly valuable, so he collected all their weapons and put them into the cloud bag, and hurried back.
Not long after Lin Yi left, a white bone as white as jade emerged from the soil.
In the eye sockets of the white bones, two green flames jumped, and the man abandoned by Ji Yi slowly stood up again...
