Chapter 310 Cong Xiaoye and Niwan Zi's Time-Traveling Phone Call
Meanwhile, Niwan Zi was jumping around the police station, holding up a fragment of a bronze mirror. "Technical Department! Quickly connect this thing to the quantum computer!"
He shouted to a group of dumbfounded colleagues, "I want to have a cross-time and space video conference with Cong Xiaoye, Tang Dynasty's apprentice!"
Before he finished speaking, the bronze mirror suddenly emitted a blinding light, and Cong Xiaoye's face appeared and disappeared in the mirror. In the background, there were the sounds of rapid hoofbeats and clashing weapons.
"Master Niwan Zi! Come to Anfu Gate immediately!" Cong Xiaoye's voice trembled with a metallic quality. "'Qingshan Mirage' organization wants to open a spacetime rift. They used AI to forge Song Xiaobai's incriminating evidence. The real artifact scan images are hidden..."
At this moment, the image suddenly distorted, turning into a scene of Du Xiaobing being tied up in a holographic cage, holding a bamboo slip covered with coded text in her hand, and frantically gesturing at the camera.
"Little Rhinoceros! Activate the Chang'an City defense system!" Niwan Zi suddenly shouted into the air.
Song Erjiu then noticed that Xiao Sizi had somehow pulled out a miniature "Tubo City Sand Table," with red and blue warning lights flashing on the market model on it.
"Received! 'Green Mountain Mirage's' lair has been located at..." Little Sizi suddenly froze. "What? It's on the third basement level of Wanda Plaza? These bastards have no taste at all!"
Song Erjiu gripped the Tibetan medicine box tightly, watching the constantly changing red dots on her phone's map. The map of Tubo City in the chip was updating in real time, marking a secret passage leading to underground ruins.
At the end of the secret passage, Du Xiaobing's location signal was flashing, and next to it was a line of small print: "Danger! Temporal turbulence area".
"Let's go! Let's go rescue them!" Niwan Zi conjured up a modified ancient war chariot from nowhere, with a modern electromagnetic cannon mounted on its roof.
Little Sizi jumped onto the car, popped an AR chewing gum into his mouth, and instantly summoned a group of holographic flying yakshas.
Cong Xiaoye took a deep breath and tucked the scalding Tibetan medicine box into his pocket—it seemed he not only had to help his master find Du Xiaobing, but also unravel this time-traveling mystery spanning a thousand years…
In 835 AD, the summer heat of Tubo City, mixed with the fragrance of locust blossoms brought by the princess, permeated the market.
Entrusted by Niwan Zi, Cong Xiaoye clutched the newly made bronze-carved Tibetan medicine box. He felt the fine indentations as he passed a yak meat wonton stall. The owner called out, "Young man, want a bowl of sour soup wontons? Add chili and garlic, and I guarantee you'll... run faster than a rabbit!"
Cong Xiaoye shook his head cautiously and walked quickly past, seeing that the door of Du Xiaobing's former embroidery workshop was tightly closed, and the green rust on the copper lock had thickened even more.
He slipped a bamboo slip inscribed with "Waiting for your return" into the crack of the door, unaware that this slip of paper would eventually turn to dust over time.
When Song Xiaobai pushed open the door to her own courtyard, her face turned pale and her pupils contracted sharply. The door lock lay broken on the ground, and the ancestral gilded amber incense burner, as if it had a premonition, had vanished without a trace.
Now a seasoned constable, Xiao Ye squatted by the wall, his black boots shattering the porcelain shards on the ground. He suddenly exclaimed in astonishment, "That thief's lightness skill is simply amazing! Did he secretly enroll in a Wudang training course? He barely broke a few tiles on the wall!"
Cong Xiaoye mischievously ran her hand across the window frame, leaving a thick cinnabar mark, exactly like the modus operandi of the legendary flying thief "Red Silk"!
He rubbed his hands excitedly: "Hehe, it seems we're going to have a thrilling cat-and-mouse game with this elegant thief! I want to see if his thieving skills are better, or if my skills as a constable Cong Xiaoye are superior!"
