Fuji [Four Beauties]

Chapter 44 The Great Change

A can of porridge with river fish and wild vegetables was thrown on the ground, splashing everywhere.The porridge was originally cooked before Song Ci left the city to collect money.Liu's mother is in poor health and suffers from malnutrition all year round.Now is the time of war and chaos, Song Ci can only go to catch some fish, pick some wild vegetables, and add a little millet to make porridge to improve Liu's mother's nutrition.

Now all the porridge has been spilled on the ground, and the people who were supposed to drink porridge have disappeared.Song Ci searched the entire house, but found no blood at the scene.This shows that Liu's mother was not injured on the spot, but was arrested and taken away before it was too late.

Song Ci ran out the door and jumped onto a big tree by the side of the road.The big tree was very tall. Looking around from above, Song Ci could immediately grasp the situation of the surrounding streets.After briefly judging the traces left on the ground, Song Ci chased the most suspicious road.She didn't know what kind of background the mother and son, who looked poor and helpless, had.But thinking about it now, the two of them are definitely not as simple as a pair of poor and helpless mother and daughter.

It's useless to think too much now, only by saving the person first can we consider other things.Song Ci came back very quickly, and the group of people who came to arrest him also left very quickly.Song Ci chased all the way out, and the traces left along the way showed that the group of people had gone outside the city.

After leaving Chang'an City, the paths outside extend in all directions, and there are many waterways.If the opponent goes by water, the clue will be broken, and Song Ci will not be able to catch up even if he wants to.Thinking of this, Song Ci became even more anxious, trying to speed up her speed, and soon she chased out of Chang'an City.

The farther you go outside the city, the more desolate and withered the atmosphere becomes.

After chasing for another distance, Shi Shi had reached a deserted place.A strong smell of blood came over, and the ominous premonition in Song Ci's heart became deeper and deeper.She slowed down, and cautiously approached the place with the strongest smell.Several howls of wild beasts came, accompanied by the wailing of birds.

Song Ci's hands were trembling a little, she closed her eyes, collected herself, and then pushed aside the bushes that blocked her vision.The eyes were full of blood, and a group of beasts were roaring around a bloody corpse.The smell of blood coming to his face couldn't hide the smell of herbs that Song Ci was very familiar with.

For a moment, Song Ci felt cold all over.

When he came back to his senses, he was already kneeling in front of the corpse.The corpse was wearing clothes she was very familiar with, and there were holes in the clothes that she had patched.Tears fell from Song Ci's eyes drop by drop, and hit the bloody soil, splashing bloody mud beads one by one.Song Ci couldn't believe that Mother Liu, who was talking to him not long ago, turned into a cold corpse.

Why?She's just a dying woman.Who is going to hit her so hard?What did she do wrong to be treated like this?Song Ci didn't know, but unfortunately, the corpse would not answer her.

Seeing someone approaching, the beasts around were not afraid.In the years of war and chaos, there are dead people everywhere. They have eaten a lot, and they are excited when they smell this smell. How can they be afraid?The beasts roared and tried, and leaned towards Song Ci.Probably because Song Ci was motionless, so they also regarded her as an object to feast on.

It wasn't until the beasts were close at hand that Song Ci was awakened by their stench.Song Ci's clenched fist kept shrinking, raised and lowered, raised and lowered, like this several times.Song Ci tried his best to suppress his grief and indignation, turned his head and shouted to the beasts, "Don't mess with me, get out!"

Her voice was very low, and her aura was not particularly strong, but for some reason, it gave off a creepy calmness.

Hearing her voice, the menacing beasts immediately stood on end, and backed away whimpering softly.Song Ci raised his hand, trying to wipe away his tears.She took out a handkerchief that had been washed white and stiff from her bosom, and wiped the blood off Mother Liu's face.It's a pity that she is covered in blood, how can a handkerchief wipe it clean?

After wiping in vain, Song Ci picked up Mother Liu, whose limbs were already cold, and walked forward step by step, towards the cave where the money was hidden.

When they arrived at the cave, Guo Jia had already left, and those ridiculous little money were still piled up in the cave.Song Ci placed Mother Liu gently in the depths of the cave, and folded many reeds outside, and she wove the reeds into mats.After cleaning up the blood on Mother Liu, she wrapped Mother Liu in a reed mat.In order to prevent the beasts from coming in with the smell of blood, Song Ci also picked many herbs and spread them on the reed mat.

After doing all this, Song Ci walked out of the cave.Before she took it out of the bag, Mother Liu asked her to give Situ Wangyun the box.The person who killed Mother Liu was probably because of this box.If she wanted to seek revenge, she had to use this box.

Song Ci removed the dirt wrapped around the box, and after removing it, she tried to open the box.The box seemed to contain a mystery, no matter how hard Song Ci tried, he couldn't open it.Song Ci simply put the box on the ground, found a big stone and threw it directly at the box, and the box was intact.

Song Ci got angry, so she went to find an extremely huge stone, moved it over and smashed it on the box.This girl named Liu Ci is very strong, it is not an exaggeration to say that she is born with supernatural power.Song Ci also discovered by accident that this girl has the strength to carry the burden.

Then an astonishingly large stone fell down, and the box was not smashed, but fell into the soil due to the gravity of the stone.Song Ci went to the river to search again, and found a relatively smooth stone.She put the box on top of the rock and smashed it.This time, under the attack from both sides, cracks finally appeared on the body of the box.Following the crack, Song Ci opened the box with his hands.

Inside is a jade seal, only the size of a palm.There was a chip in one corner of the jade seal, which was filled with gold.Eight seal scripts are engraved on the top of the jade seal: You are ordered by the sky, and you live forever.

Song Ci was extremely shocked. There was no doubt that what she was holding was the legendary Jade Seal of Chuanguo carved out of Heshibi.

Why is Yuxi in the hands of Mother Liu?Could it be that she was once a person in the palace?Those who came to her were undoubtedly for this jade seal.Why did she do everything possible to hide the jade seal? Could it be that this thing is more important than her own life?

Song Ci simply had too many questions.The Chuanguo Yuxi, which appeared in front of her, had a great impact on her. For a while, Song Ci's mind went blank, and he stayed there, losing the ability to think.

I don't know how long it took before Song Ci came back to his senses.The sun has risen very high. If it was the past, she would already be having dinner with Liu's mother.It's a pity that now, the person who used to eat with her and always gave her the fish in the bowl can no longer see the sun.

Song Ci wiped his eye sockets with his hands, trying to pull himself together.She wrapped up the extremely hot Chuanguo Yuxie, put it in the package, and threw the fragments of the box into the river.

After finishing these, Song Ciqian returned to Chang'an City.She didn't go back to the place where she lived before, it was not safe anymore, so she went to find Wang Yun.Since Mother Liu asked Song Ci to hand over Yuxi to him, Song Ci would do it.However, if Wang Yun wanted to get this thing, he had to tell Song Ci one thing, who killed Mother Liu.

After arriving at Situ's Mansion, Wang Yun had already returned, and Song Ci saw him soon.Wang Yun, who hadn't returned all night and didn't come back until now, was obviously exhausted.Wang Yun seemed surprised by Song Ci's visit.Song Ci didn't turn the corner, and told Wang Yun the matter directly.Of course, she selectively omitted the matter of Chuanguo Yuxi, she wanted to see Wang Yun's reaction.

Hearing about Liu's mother, Wang Yun was taken aback, and hurriedly asked Song Ci for details.After learning the details of the incident from Song Ci, Wang Yun immediately sent someone to investigate what happened in the city in the morning.

The people sent by Wang Yun came back not long after they left.Because this matter does not need to be investigated at all, it can be regarded as well-known in the city.Anyone with eyes could see that the Taishi's soldiers searched for sick women all over the city.As soon as a sick woman was caught, they were dragged to the barracks outside the city and tortured for interrogation.Those who couldn't get the result were all killed.

As Dong Zhuo's nominal confidant, Wang Yun could of course get much more information than this.

Last night, a group of relatives ambush outside the city of Chang'an under the name of killing Dong Zhuo and recovering the Han family, trying to intercept and kill Dong Zhuo when he returned to Chang'an from Meiwu.Unexpectedly, the assassination of Dong Zhuo failed, but all the soldiers under Dong Zhuo took down.Dong Zhuo was furious and ordered severe torture, and all the accomplices who wanted to find out the matter were wiped out.Some of them couldn't stand the torture, so they recruited accomplices, and even recruited additional things.

The person who took the lead in assassinating Dong Zhuo was a very prestigious clan member of the Liu family.The Liu family member claimed that after finding the Jade Seal of Chuan Kingdom lost in the flames of war, it was God who wanted to help them kill the rebels.

At that time, Dong Zhuo forcibly drove the people from the Luoyang Palace to Chang'an in order to avoid the sharp edge of the Kwantung Allied Army.The eunuch in charge of keeping the jade seal disappeared on the road, and so did the jade seal.After arriving in Chang'an, some palace people said that when the eunuch left, he handed over the jade seal to a woman who had been in the palace and worked as a court lady.The woman was seriously ill and had two moles on her left arm.

Liu's clan sent people to investigate deeply, and after several twists and turns, they finally learned that the woman also came to Chang'an with her, and now she lives in the north of Chang'an city.The Liu family originally planned to kill Dong Zhuo first, and then find Yuxi.Use the jade seal to call on the officials and the army in Chang'an City to quell the rebellion, and then use it to call on the world to restore the Han Dynasty.

Knowing the details, Wang Yun couldn't help sighing, comforted Song Ci repeatedly, and arranged for her to live in Situ's Mansion first.

Song Ci's face was very calm, and she accepted Wang Yun's arrangements one by one.In the dead of night, Song Ci quietly went out.Where is she in the mood to sleep now?Song Ci now has only one thing on her mind, she wants to find out whether Dong Zhuo did it or not?

The so-called grievances and debts have owners. To find out about this matter, it is the fastest to ask the parties to understand.

Dong Zhuo is now in power, and if the civil and military officials are not as good as he wants, he will immediately become a ghost under his sword.Similarly, those who want to kill him may not be able to squeeze in from here to Luoyang.Dong Zhuo himself knew very well that not only did he deploy heavy troops in the Grand Master's Mansion, but he also had heavy guards going in and out.

In this case, it is not easy to find him.If it doesn't work out, ending up decapitated is already a very good end, of course Song Ci knows this.She wasn't overwhelmed by anger, and she had to keep calm at this time.

Therefore, Song Ci did not go directly to the door to die, but let Dong Zhuo come out by himself.
