Tang Dynasty detective

Chapter 605
There were still snowflakes in the sky, but they were much smaller. When Li Canghai arrived at the Buddhist hall, he had someone make some wooden boxes to protect those footprints.

Di Qing didn't bother to hold an umbrella for him, so she directly got an extra-large oil-paper umbrella and stuck it in the snow to cover Li Canghai from the snow.

He stared at the footprints on the ground, and the more he looked at them, the more strange he felt, but he couldn't tell what was so strange for a while, but this feeling kept lingering in his heart, making him unable to figure it out, but he couldn't get rid of it.

This sitting is half a day.

After lunch, I sat until it was getting dark.

Di Qing was really bored, so she built a snowman beside her. After half a day, she built more than a dozen big snowmen with cute faces.

Li Canghai still sat motionless in front of the footprints. If Di Qing hadn't bought him an extra-large oil-paper umbrella to cover the snow, Li Canghai might have turned into a snowman long ago.

Not long after, a maid came to Li Canghai with a food box.

"The servants are seeing the prince, the prince, it's getting late, it's time for dinner."

Li Canghai did not respond.

The maid hesitated for a moment, and then shouted a few more times, but Li Canghai still looked directly at the Buddhist hall without any response.

The maid thought for a while, and then bravely stretched out her finger and shook it in front of Li Canghai's nose.

With this flash, she was so frightened that her face paled, and she fell down in the snow with a plop, spilling all the food in the food box on the ground.

"No, it's not good! My lord, he froze to death!" the maid exclaimed in shock.

Di Qing, who was admiring the snowman she had built not far away, immediately ran over.

She reached out her hand to check Li Canghai's breath, and then felt for his pulse, her face was worried at first, then turned into suspicion, and finally turned into joy again.

Li Canghai once told him that he had obtained the internal energy of the two eminent Indian monks, but that internal energy could not be used by him.

But now, Li Canghai has unknowingly fallen into the meditation of "as if to exist or as to perish".

On the surface, it seems that he is not breathing, but in reality he is using his inner breath to operate.

In particular, when Di Qing checked his pulse, she found that the true energy in his body was flowing unimpeded, which meant that Li Canghai was already fusing the internal forces of the two masters, which was an out-and-out task for Li Canghai. good thing.

"Don't worry, he's fine." Di Qing said to the maid.

The maid looked at Li Canghai suspiciously, lowered her head and said, "Master, since the lord is fine, why is there no response?"

Di Qing giggled, and said, "It's easy to wake him up." As she spoke, Di Qing stretched out her slender hand as quickly as lightning, and pinched the back of Li Canghai's hand.

Immediately afterwards, a scream was heard, and Li Canghai suddenly woke up from his meditation.

"What's wrong? What happened?" Li Canghai came back to his senses and asked, looking around.

After he saw the sly smile in Di Qing's eyes, Li Canghai understood instantly.

"Qing'er, why are you pinching me when you're so good? Look, you've already pinched me a flower." Li Canghai stretched out his arms and said with a grin.

"Hmph, are you still ashamed to say that? If it weren't for me, others would have regarded you as a dead person! You are really, actually entering meditation in such a cold and snowy day." Di Qing pinched her waist and said.

Only then did Li Canghai come to his senses, he moved his muscles and bones in surprise, and suddenly understood, no wonder he was not frozen into ice after sitting in such a cold weather for a long time, it turned out to be the peerless internal force circulating in his body protecting myself.

"I didn't expect this internal force to have such benefits. If these internal forces are integrated, wouldn't it be necessary to wrap up like a rice dumpling in winter?" Li Canghai thought to himself.

But at this moment, his stomach suddenly growled.

After being in meditation for a long time, the energy in his body has already been exhausted, and now he feels a little hungry when he wakes up.

"Huh, why did all these food fall to the ground?" Li Canghai looked down and saw the steaming food scattered on the ground, and was a little surprised.

Di Qing rolled his eyes at him, and said, "Didn't you just pretend to be dead here, so that people thought you were really dead, so you accidentally knocked over the food box?"

The maid hurriedly knelt in the snow, and tremblingly said: "My lord, forgive me! My lord, forgive me! This servant didn't mean to overturn the lord's dinner, so I'm going to fetch food for the lord and princess!"

Seeing the terrified look on the maid's face, Li Canghai couldn't bear it, so he smiled slightly and said, "It's not a problem, it's not your fault. Besides, these things just fell on the snow, they're not dirty, and they're still edible. Nowadays, there's a lot of snow No end, there is a shortage of food, save as much as you can!"

As he said that, Li Canghai bent down to pick up a roast chicken beside him, but when he bent down, his eyes suddenly caught a glimpse of a steamed bun lying on the footprints in front of him.

Thinking that the footprints were evidence, and the steamed buns were hot, he was afraid of damaging the footprints, so he bent down and took the steamed buns out of the footprints.

But at this time, his stomach was rumbling non-stop, Li Canghai put the steamed bun on his body and wiped it casually, and stuffed it directly into his mouth?

But as soon as he took a bite, Li Canghai suddenly felt salty in his mouth, and he hurriedly spat out the mouthful of steamed bun he bit into.

Li Canghai took a few mouthfuls of forceful pooing, and Li Canghai's brows were crinkled. He looked at the steamed bun and said, "Why is it so salty? Did the imperial chef pour salt into the flour? You guys can't eat such a salty steamed bun. How did you eat it?"

Li Canghai said me, leaned over and grabbed a handful of snow, stuffed it into his mouth, and rinsed his mouth desperately.

The maid was stunned for a moment, and said with a blank face: "Is this impossible? This steamed bun was just steamed by the imperial chef, isn't it salty?"

Di Qing also grabbed a steamed bun from the food box on the snow and took a bite in her mouth. She looked at Li Canghai suspiciously and said, "Why is this steamed bun so salty?"

Li Canghai spit several mouthfuls, and after almost spitting out the salty taste in his mouth, he suspiciously took the steamed bun from Di Qing's hand and took a bite.

"Eh, it's strange, why isn't this steamed bun salty?" Li Canghai asked in surprise.

"Cang Hai, are you hallucinating from being frozen?" Di Qing said.

Li Canghai looked at the two steamed buns in his hands, and then at the footprints, his heart suddenly moved, he hurriedly bent down, picked up a handful of snow from around the footprints with his fingers, and put it into his mouth.

"Salty? This snow...how could it be salty?" Li Canghai frowned, turning his eyes left and right a few times, his eyes full of puzzlement.

"Cang Hai, what are you talking about?" Seeing that his face was full of doubts, Di Qing was at a loss.
