Empress Dowager Empress Dowager

Chapter 130
The footsteps gradually faded away, and the two groups of people chased after the man in black, and Huo Mingzhu met the man in black three times in total, and he didn't even know his name, but he had to admit that it was him just now saved her.No matter what the purpose was for him to rob the dancer from the Western Regions, he had never really caught her in an unrighteous situation. If being trapped in an orc's cage at this moment is not counted...

The surrounding area was quiet, only the orcs in the two iron cages were staring at Huo Mingzhu. In the iron cage she was in, the orcs were crushed to the ground by her, and their eyes wanted to tear her apart. The orc bared his teeth and stared at her unblinkingly as if seeing a prey.His hands are holding on to the railing of the iron cage, and he might tear open the cage and escape at any time!
The cold sweat on Huo Mingzhu's forehead kept dripping down, flowing down from the mask, all the way across her cheeks.She didn't know how to escape from this orc's cage, she didn't even dare to move, her body was too small, she would definitely be torn to pieces in this orc's hands...

Facing the mask, the orc's gaze was like a cold star or a sharp blade, lingering at Huo Mingzhu with one knife at a time. The orc stared at her for a while, then moved suddenly, raised his hand and reached for Huo Mingzhu's mask...

Huo Mingzhu's eyes rolled around, and seeing the right moment, she suddenly stabbed a prickly acupuncture point of the orc with a silver needle. Although the orc had rough skin and thick flesh, the acupoints of the muscles and veins were the same as those of ordinary people. Fleeing, a series of actions were completed in one go. Before the orc woke up, Huo Mingzhu closed the iron cage with a "bang", and locked the opened lock with a "snap".

"Ah!" The orc woke up in an instant, got up from the ground, and threw himself on the iron cage, shaking and slapping the iron cage vigorously, his cold star-like gaze seemed to want to eat people!

Such a big commotion will soon alarm other people in this underground city. How dare Huo Mingzhu continue to stay? Her legs and feet react faster than her head, and she is already moving in the opposite direction to the two groups of them. running in the direction.

This underground city is too big, and I don't know who activated what formation. In Huo Mingzhu's eyes, the layout of this underground city is completely different from when she came here before. Like a dead city, it was as quiet as in a huge tomb.

In this lifeless environment, Huo Mingzhu walked carefully. She made a mark along the way, but she was careful not to find the way back.Those marks also disappeared as if they had disappeared out of thin air.

After about half a cup of tea, two figures suddenly appeared in front of them. One of them was standing tall with his hands behind his back, facing Huo Mingzhu's position in a sideways posture, while the other was like a He looks like a monk with a shaved head, which can be clearly seen from the shadow.

No matter how far Huo Mingzhu was, he could always recognize Baili Zonglu's figure at a glance. The jade hairpin and hair ornaments on his head were all unique to him, so there was no mistake.

Lost a dancer from the Western Regions, and it was something that Baili Zonglu wanted so hard, how could Baili Zonglu not go after the man in black, but talk to a monk here instead?The only explanation is that this monk is much more important to Baili Zonglu than those external things.

Huo Mingzhu held her breath and huddled in the corner, listening to the slight sound of the wind blowing over there.

"This time when I came to the dungeon, I only came here for one thing. What you gave me was all useless. Not only that, but someone else robbed her. How much is she worth?"

Baili Zonglu's voice entered Huo Mingzhu's ears verbatim.

"My lord, please calm down. This Jianjian is indeed a big one. She used to be a princess of the Hanhai Kingdom. She was a dancer when the country was destroyed and her family was destroyed. She came from the Hanhai Kingdom, so she naturally knows the whereabouts of the treasure."

This answer obviously did not meet Baili Zonglu's expectations, he sneered: "Leaving aside the whereabouts of the treasure for now, what I want to ask is, can the intruders in this underground city be caught? You said there was a big deal, why didn’t it arrive today?”

"This... the transaction in the dungeon is inherently risky. Every first and fifteenth day, only one top card is sacrificed. Today, the Western Region dancer is the most important. How many people in the Central Plains want to know the whereabouts of the treasure so that they can go outside the Great Wall to find it. As for you The thing you want is indeed not in the underground city this time, if you meet it next time, I will definitely give it to you." The monk said in a gentle tone, and said in a friendly voice.

"Let? Haha, this king wanted this dancer today, but the master's subordinates didn't give in. Firstly, she was robbed by an ignorant bastard, embarrassing this king in public. Second, this king is willing to bet. I would like to follow you again, but you let a gangster who doesn't know where you came from appear and snatched the king's people and things in front of the king. Now you can push the responsibility away and pretend that nothing happened? "

The monk was obviously very embarrassed, he didn't dare to offend Baili Zonglu, and he couldn't admit it all, so he stammered: "This... I have already sent someone to chase him, I believe he can run away with a woman. If you catch it, you will definitely hand it over to the prince. Please calm down the prince."

Baili Zonglu obviously didn't intend to appease his anger, he snorted coldly and said: "If Qingquan Temple can't handle these things, someone will take their place. Your Majesty is very interested in cultivating immortals recently. I'm afraid no one will listen to your Buddhist teachings. Well, it’s better to close this monastery as soon as possible.”

Although Baili Zonglu's tone was not as intense, the monk immediately panicked when he heard it, and hurriedly bowed to Baili Zonglu with his palms together: "I also ask the prince to make amends, and within today, I will definitely give the prince an explanation! "

"The master is a monk, but he has repeatedly lied. This king's time is precious, and I have no time to listen to your perfunctory. How about this, this king will take a step ahead tonight. Everything here is still handed over to the master. I will come again on the first day of next month. Now, let's see if the treasure that the master said can really be given to me... how about it?" Baili Zonglu asked with a smile, but every word was aggressive.
