Chapter 128 Praying Mantis Catching Cicadas

"Don't move! If you move again, I'll kill you!" Lu Chun threatened it. He originally wanted to scare it and make it behave better, but unexpectedly, this white eagle was actually raised by Ye Langxie, and it screamed without any stage fright.

Teng Teng kicked Chu Qiluo away, leaving a long red mark on the back of her hand with her claws.

Chu Qiluo frowned and retracted her hands, watching coldly as it fell to the ground: "Grab it and put it on the table."

The white eagle that was caught on the table struggled again, but because its wings were injured, it could not fly. It fluttered and fell to the ground again. However, Chu Qiluo knew clearly that it did not dare to approach them, but still let Lu Chun put it down again and again.

On the table, Lu Chun looked at her strangely: "Qiluo, are you in love with an eagle?"

"It's not an ordinary eagle." Chu Qiluo's eyebrows were lowered and her face was as calm as a mountain: "The wings of eagles are extremely strong. They learn to fly because their mother breaks their wings with her own hands, and then throws them off the cliff.

Only those who fly in pain in the wind are qualified to survive. It is such a proud eagle, both smart and ferocious. Who can hurt it? I also saw its injury just now, and it is not to this extent at all."

...Lu Chun's eyes widened: "Are you trying to say that this eagle is just pretending?"

"No, its wings are indeed broken, but not to the extent that it can't fly. The reason why it can't fly is because someone gave it medicine. I think, if possible, it should be Langxie. This eagle

He admitted that he would not eat ordinary people's food. "Of course Langxie would not break its wings and give it medicine for no reason. If I guessed correctly, it should be to make it surrender to me."

It's Ye Langxie's eagle, but he treats it like this just so that it can recognize Qiluo's status... Lu Chun rubbed his forehead: "You guys really think too much, I feel tired just looking at it."

While speaking, the white eagle was placed back on the table again. It looked back at Chu Qiluo. It must have been hurt by the fall and actually shrank to her side. Lu Chun was overjoyed: "Look, it recognizes you!"

"

But she saw Chu Qiluo reaching out and pushing it to the ground mercilessly.

The white eagle seemed a little stunned. It lay on the ground without moving for a long time. Chu Qiluo coughed lightly and stretched out her hand in front of it. It suddenly raised its head, but it did not peck her, but stared at her motionless.

Chu Qiluo reached out and picked it up without taking it seriously, and bandaged it again. This time, Bai Ying didn't bother with it anymore.

"Is this called surrender? It's obviously unwilling." Lu Chun was quite disapproving.

"The eagle is the proudest. You can't expect it to be as close to you as a puppy. It has a kind of wildness. If it is tamed to the point of completely losing itself..." She suddenly paused, and her voice was strange: "Then it

All the advantages will also be worn away and will no longer have any value."

And the person who tames it, if he treats it well, will keep it as a pet and want it to be as close to people as a puppy. If he treats it badly, he will abandon it mercilessly.

Her heart suddenly became very bitter. The eagle is like this, and she is not the same. She yearns for the scenery of the world and admires the rivers and lakes, but she can only be trapped in one continuous conspiracy after another.

"Qiluo, we can't be imprisoned by them like this, what if..." If they really capture them and take them to the Imperial Capital, there is no need for the prince to deal with them. Just saying that Chu Qiluo left her job without permission is enough to make her drink.

Smiling slightly, Chu Qiluo gently stroked the white eagle's feathers and calmly said, "Don't worry, he's already here." Before she finished speaking, there was a sudden loud noise from the window. Listening to the force, it sounded like something heavy.

It was as if something hit the window sill directly. Lu Chun's eyes widened, he drew out his sword and cautiously prepared to face it, when a loud shout suddenly sounded from behind him.

"Who is it?" The guard who had been standing outside the door burst into the room with the tip of his sword pointed directly at the window.

The window was at a corner, and he was afraid of being plotted, so he used the tip of his sword to open it and only stretched his head to look when he was sure there was no danger.

A feather arrow came through the air, and hit him with great accuracy, straight into his neck. The castration did not stop, and he was directly pinned to the wall. The guard was not dead yet, and he made a sound in his throat but he could not say anything.

As he spoke, his eyes slowly turned white.

Shang Zhi and the witch who came over after hearing the sound were also extremely nervous. They held Chu Qiluo inside with their swords. Shang Zhi waved his hand, and the guards immediately rushed downstairs to investigate on the other side.

But as soon as these people came downstairs, there was no sound. There was a vague smell of blood in the air, which slowly became tainted. Shang Zhi's face sank, knowing that those guards would probably never come back, so he turned back.

Looking at Chu Qiluo: "Yunluo, don't you like killing the most? If you commit murder today, tomorrow..."

Chu Qiluo's face was as cold as ice. She raised her eyes and looked at him calmly, but she gave him a kind of pressure for no reason, making him breathless. She sneered and interrupted him: "Why did Yun Luo become Chu's military advisor?"

, I think His Highness has made it clear to you, right? Let my family be ruined but you want me to stay out of it? Sorry, I can't do it."

"It's really ridiculous." Shang Zhi glanced at the arrow. The accuracy of its power cannot be achieved in one, two or three days...

He knew that the person who caused all this had already arrived, and he was afraid that he was standing in a dark corner just waiting for him to reveal his flaws and destroy him with one blow.

He had already heard about that man's iron-blooded tactics, but even though he was a little nervous, he straightened his back and showed an indifferent expression: "I don't know why you became a military advisor, and I don't want to know, I just know..."

He approached her and slowly leaned down. Seeing her alert look, he chuckled and whispered in her ear: "Your purpose of finding out the truth is to help your enemies fight for the world?"

What do you mean? Chu Qiluo suddenly stared at him, slightly angry in her heart, and her tone became worse: "What do you mean?"

"It's not interesting." Footsteps approached the room, and Shang Zhi turned his head. Immediately, guards came forward to close the doors and windows. They ignored the guards who were nailed to the wall and left him hanging there. He directed the soldiers to lift the bed.

When turned on, everything is performed with actions and no sound is made at all.

Chu Qiluo couldn't understand. What was going on?

It wasn't until the bed was moved away and Shang Zhi stepped on it lightly that the ground slowly rotated and a staircase was revealed. She didn't understand why they didn't rush away even after catching her. It turned out they were waiting here... It's just that

The sophistication of this mechanism was so ingenious that it not only deceived her, but also left no trace at all. She slept for days and nights without realizing that it was empty...

Shang Zhi raised his feet and walked two steps. Suddenly something occurred to him, and he looked back at her again, half-smiling but not smiling: "Come, please leave first, two girls."

The voice was loud and loud, and it was deliberately intended to be heard by people outside the house... As soon as he finished speaking, several guards stepped forward and placed their swords directly on Chu Qiluo's neck. Shang Zhi raised his chin and smiled coldly: "Miss Green,

Think twice before you act."

Lu Chun, who was about to strike with swords, glanced at the polished sword point on Chu Qiluo's neck, gritted her teeth and dropped the sword. She looked at Chu Qiluo strangely, why didn't Qiluo resist at all?

There was a huge roar downstairs, and the group quickly walked into the tunnel. Shang Zhi pressed the button. Chu Qiluo turned around and watched the bright light gradually disappear. The corners of her lips slowly curled up. If she guessed correctly, inside the house

The scene should have been completely restored, except for the dead body, there is no trace left, right?

Looking back, she saw Lu Chun's angry face, and she patted her hand reassuringly to show comfort.

Of course she would not suspect Ye Langxie just because of Shang Zhi's incomprehensible words. She knew very well how Langxie treated her. If it was true that Ye Langxie had harmed the Chu family, he would not have ignored her father when he died.

Regardless of following her, she rushed in... What really made her determined to follow was this mechanism. If she saw it right, this mechanism looked familiar, as if it was the work of an old friend.

Shang Zhi personally held the torch and brought it to her. His charming face was vaguely visible in the dancing firelight, but there was a mocking smile on his lips: "It turns out that you are nothing more than that."

It's just that, what's just that? Chu Qiluo was a little confused. By the firelight, she could see the contempt in his eyes, and she knew calmly that it was him who deliberately sow discord, and now she was taking advantage of his heart to believe the rumors and run away with him.

Now, he despises her again. It makes people really don’t know what to say.

She didn't know what to say, so she simply didn't say anything. She took the torch gracefully and passed it to Lu Chun: "Mr. Shang, please lead the way."

The cave was dark and cold, and Shang Zhi walked at the front, pressing buttons all the way. From time to time, there was the sound of the machine starting and closing, and the sound was endless. Chu Qiluo pretended to be idle, half-casting her eyes and saying nothing, but her attention was completely absorbed.

She was attracted and watched his every move carefully, hoping to see some clues. Unfortunately, the light was not bright enough and she couldn't see exactly where he pressed.

After twisting and turning around for an unknown number of times, a stone door opened, and her eyes widened. Chu Qiluo squinted her eyes and looked out, and unexpectedly saw the prince's face, which was smiling so hard that his teeth were missing.

Why is he here? Where is he? Chu Qiluo was surprised, but still sat calmly and said nothing.

"Nianwei..." The prince stepped forward to greet her in person, with a smile on his face, but there was a faint hint of conspiracy: "It's been a hard journey."

Chu Qiluo glanced at him lightly: "Yun Luo, a commoner girl, comes to see Your Highness." Her expression was arrogant, as if she was Yun Luo, a close disciple of Master Yunya who had always been higher than the arrogant Lin Yun.

The prince was stunned, his smile froze, but he immediately reacted, looked at her with a meaningful smile, and patted Shang Zhi on the shoulder: "Shang Zhi." He glanced at the witch and turned around, and Shang Zhi followed her.

, without even looking at her, Chu Qiluo lowered her eyes and said nothing. Was all this planned long ago? It was all a lie to say that the prince returned to Beijing...

The witch knowingly called the guards to carry Chu Qiluo into the guest room. When she was about to leave, Chu Qiluo called her out: "Young Master."

"What's the matter?" The miko turned to look at her expressionlessly.

If you just look at her face, you really can't tell anything, but the little joy in her eyes revealed her true thoughts. Chu Qiluo supported her cheek with her hands and smiled calmly: "I'm very happy to see him, right?"
