The punishment of the female imperial court

Chapter 115 Cloud City?ghost city?

Boyi looked sideways, and the pale mask made the woman's delicate chin look like a sculpture, with a fresh milky luster.

Because she was wearing a mask, she was more relaxed, the corners of her mouth did not rise habitually, and the look in her shallow eyes penetrated through the holes of the mask, showing a kind of freedom and ease that is rarely seen in ordinary times.

She was looking at the eye-catching "囍" character directly above the stage, and it seemed that the protagonist on the stage was indeed.

But there were obviously three people on the stage.

Shrugging his shoulders indifferently, he said, "Why don't you guess who is the bridegroom?"

Boyi also looked back on the stage: "I bet on that devil. What's the point of the story about gods and immortals together?"

She chuckled softly: "Recently, it is really popular to bring together fairies, devils, mortal monsters and monsters."

"Then who do you think the bridegroom will be?" He wanted to know the answer to this question very much, and he refused to let go.

"I've never liked talking about other people's affairs."

She looked at the story on the stage and seemed fascinated.

Just when Boyi thought she wouldn't answer, she said softly, "Just do it from your heart."

At this time, the god general who is playing on the stage has deceived the fairy, and all the kindness to her is just to kill her at the right time.And that devil, desperate to protect the fairy.

All the beings in the audience sighed and sighed, and there was a bustling noise for a while.

Boyi's black eyes were stained with a smile, he didn't know whether he was happy that he had bet on the right person, or he was happy with the phrase "from the heart".

Sure enough, it's a popular vernacular these days.Yu Qiansi turned her attention away from the stage, looked around, and saw a few black figures like them leaving from the corner of the side of the stage, like a small opening in an overflowing pond, and the crowd suddenly appeared there. flow up.

She poked Boyi: "Look over there." There should be an exit.

Bo Yi held her wrist again, pushed aside the crowd first, and walked towards the exit with Yu Qiansi.

Gao Wei's figure completely covered the road ahead, but it also blocked most of the crowded crowds. She seemed to be walking through the dark night, but she didn't feel panicked.

This exit should be specially reserved for the guests to leave, and no one was guarding to block it.

The two went out, exposed to the clear moonlight.

The clear mountain wind with moisture caressed Yu Qiansi's hair.

The two stood on a plank road hanging high between the cliffs of two mountains. Under their feet was an endless abyss, dense and dangerous.

The cliffs on both sides are dotted with many bright small grids, and each grid is a stone cave, connected by wooden plank roads, like climbing vines, winding down due to the situation.

Behind it is a high-rise hall towering between the two mountains.

Boyi turned his head, and on the main hall that he came out just now, there were four simple and vigorous words engraved on it:

"The Immortal Capital of the World of Desire".

"Is this hall actually standing between two cliffs? I heard that the ghost city was uprooted by the late emperor. I never thought that it would be able to grow to such a scale after only a dozen years."

Yu Qiansi was stretching out her hand to catch the wind, stretching her five fingers like jade green onions, and smiled when she heard what Bo Yi said.

Boyi looked over in confusion: "What are you laughing at?"

"The owner of Yunzhong City, Lord Yunzhong, was the owner of the ghost market back then. This is true, but Yunzhong City is not a ghost market."

Ever since Yunzhong City grew wantonly in the capital and became a hidden secret among the rich and powerful, everyone thought that Yunzhong City was a ghost market back then.

Yu Qiansi pointed to their plank road, and said indifferently: "This is the ghost market."

Boyi's heart skipped a beat, the ghost market still exists?
Yuqian looked at the hall behind him wantonly: "When there is light in the world, there are shadows, and there are ghosts when there are people. Under the protection of the 'immortal in the cloud' above here, it is not difficult to allow some little ghosts to live on, right?"

As long as there are wealthy families, there will be ordinary people with low status. This is an eternal truth.

But ordinary people can't go on the broad road, and the way of ghosts and ghosts should always leave a way for the common people to survive.

The ghost market in the past adhered to this principle, but unfortunately, in the development of thousands of years, it finally embarked on the road of confrontation with the rich and powerful families, and was eradicated because it touched the interests of the noble families.

The owner of the ghost market realized this truth in the midst of its decline, and set up Yunzhong City on top of the ghost market, integrating the interests of the rich and powerful into it, and opening the door for them to do things secretly, and now it is more prosperous.

"How do you know this?"

Boyi's heart was full of ups and downs. He always felt that the closer he got to her, the more he would discover the fog wrapped around her body.

I can't dial it out, and I can't figure it out.

Dangerous, yet enticing.

"Or, did you already know this?"

Until now, he had to face up to what Yu Qiansi had done before.

She reminded herself how to find the peddler in Yunzhong City to get the invitation, that is to say, she knew that the beheading case was related to Yunzhong City.Could it be that she purposely made a big fuss in the blacksmith's shop just to inform Yunzhong City?

"The criminal punishment department and the Dali Temple were stolen, and the fragments of the murder weapon in the decapitation case were lost. Did you also instruct me?"

The pale ghost face is now her best disguise: "I told you, I'm just making friends."

Boyi wished he could unmask her face layer by layer, but he was still worried that she would be implicated because of the theft of the prisoner, so he ran around for a long time.

"You keep saying that I'm all fake, but what about you? When have you ever treated someone sincerely?"

The mountain wind made people dizzy, and the resentment in their hearts still persisted, so they simply asked all the questions: "Who the hell are you?"

Yu family?But why do you want to join the court?

What does the jade rosary have to do with her?Let her be willing to risk her life to investigate successive cases.

The corner of the lips under the ghost's face twitched into a faint smile: "Master Bo, aren't we here to quarrel today?"

She called him "Bo Gongzi" again, and distanced the distance between the two of them: "Whether I treat others sincerely, and whom I have treated, has nothing to do with you."

Yu Qiansi turned around and walked towards the mountain wall along the plank road on one side. Bo Yi's tightly locked eyes disappeared, and he saw two lines of characters carved on the mountain wall by someone unknown.

"Don't ask questions when it's difficult, the road ahead is dark."

He sneered, he didn't know who he was laughing at, and then followed Yu Qiansi's pace unwillingly.

The two sides of the mountain wall close to the main hall are bustling with people. These distinguished guests in the cloud are all wearing the same clothes and masks.

Yuqiansi integrated herself into it and walked down.

Not long after, there was another person walking side by side.

If she is fast, he is also fast; if she is slow, he also slows down.

There was no communication between the two, and they didn't even look at each other, but she knew that the person beside her was Boyi.

At this time, the two had already reached the position near the foot of the mountain.

There are almost no VIPs like them here. The wider the plank road is, the dirtier it is. There are moss all over it. There are many ragged people sitting or lying on both sides of the road.

The terrain here is slightly gentle, and the obvious sound of water flowing under your feet can already be heard.

The number engraved on the entrance of the cave returned to "Jiazi". Boyi did some calculations in his mind and confirmed, "This should be the fourth floor 'Xuan Tai Ping Yu Tian'."

Just now when he was going all the way down, he noticed that there was a wooden sign hanging outside some stone caves, which was the right half of a terrifying golem, and he heard the familiar sound of iron hammering vaguely.But the voice was still in the depths, and he didn't go to check it out.

But it is conceivable that this wooden sign should be a pair with the Buddha sign on the left, perhaps representing the shops in these stone caves, and there are also branches outside the ghost market.

At this moment, Yu Qiansi had already bent down and started talking softly with a beggar-looking man.

Yuqian threw him five copper coins, and he pointed listlessly behind him, where the plank road turned and was hidden behind the cliff.

Poisonous snakes and scorpions lurk behind it, waiting for their prey to come to their door.

Bo Yi walked a few steps, and saw Yu Qiansi was half behind him, still looking very chic with his hands behind his back, but he slowed down his breathing, and his whole body tensed up to prepare for accidents.

Yu Qiansi behind him also understood that it was different at this time, and became cautious.

Go around the front wall and go to the more remote back cliff.The forests here are dense and the mountains are more gentle, so it should be a sunny place facing south.

There are only three or two stone caves, half-closed like wild animals, listless.

When people here saw these two luxuriously dressed "guests in the cloud", they all stared at their every move with hostility, which reminded Yu Qiansi of the cloud-patterned faces she saw on the stage in the hall just now.

Fortunately, Boyi has a broad back, which shields her from most of the malicious eyes.

"look at this!"

Boyi stopped and pointed to a stone cave.

The serial number of "Ding You" was hung outside, and beside it was a wooden sign that seemed to be hung temporarily, with three characters written on it:
"Jade Shallow Mountain".

At first sight of these three characters, Boyi felt strange.He looked to the side of Yu Qiansi who was also attracted by the wooden sign.

The whole face, together with the mask, turned into a stone-like sharpness.

His heart skipped a beat, could it really be the Yu family?

Before regaining consciousness, Yu Qiansi took the first step and entered the dark cave.

Here the outside is high and the inside is narrow, gradually extending to the depths of the mountain wall, forming a crack.

The entire space is like an open fan, spreading out all the mess and danger one by one, and placing them on the fan.

As soon as the two entered the door, they heard two crisp bells ringing above their heads.

A few reed mats were used on the inner side to barely separate a small area. Although no one was seen, two figures could be seen on the wall.

One of the figures heard the movement at the door, and subconsciously said: "Guest officer, wait a moment."

Yu Qiansi stared at the distorted figure half-reflected on the wall, sneered, and threw a gold bean into it accurately.

The two figures were taken aback for a moment, and then became blurred and swayed.

When the figure became clear again, the winner was already decided.

Yuqian said eagerly: "I've reserved the venue, take the money and leave!"

The figure who got the money suddenly elongated, got out from under the reed, and left happily.

The other person came out slowly, and was not surprised to see two people in black clothes and white masks, standing on the other side of the room, separated from them by a messy road full of various animal corpses, The long tables with dry tree roots looked at each other.

After a long time, he smiled flatteringly and asked, "Where are the two honored guests?"

Yu Qian said eagerly: "Naturally, you are looking for medicine. If you can find what I want, you will get a lot more than that person just now."
