Chapter 5: Ever-Changing Events (13)

The dragoon general who held his post guarded the iron gate like wood, and the two subordinates behind him were even more clubbed like a log, completely motionless. Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

The silent tunnel can't distinguish between day and night, only the inexhaustible lamp oil often accompanies the left and right subordinates to look at the candle flame and make a sizzling sound, unable to endure the cold, quietly hiding, a little sleepy.

Knock knock! A strange sound came from somewhere.

"Who is it?" the dragoon guard general drew his sword and shouted into the air, "Who is the trouble?"

His subordinates were immediately vigilant, no longer sleepy, and stared at the empty tunnels with wide eyes.

"Don't hurt, don't use your sword. A trembling female voice came from the exit, and then out came a woman dressed in green, with her head bowed, her bangs covering half of her face, and a basket in her hand. Xu had never seen the soldier's awe-inspiring momentum, and she whispered timidly: "Maid....... It's the maid next to my mother, my mother..... Let me deliver the food. ”

"The person sent by His Royal Highness the Second Prince?" the dragoon guard general looked her up and down.

"Well......" she was too frightened to raise her head, slowly raised the basket, handed it to the general, and said, "This is the prisoner's meal." ”

The general looked at the basket that was almost three meters away from him, how could he catch the slightly trembling basket in the woman's hand at such a distance?

Helplessly, the general planned to personally go forward to catch the basket, and his eyes were staring at her without slackening.

Just when she thought the general was going to bring food, he paused, stretched his hand into the air, and asked her, 'Where is the token?'

She was stunned for a moment, but did not react.

The subordinates behind the general stood up, "The token of His Royal Highness the Second Prince, didn't your master give it to you? Only those who hold the token of His Royal Highness can enter, otherwise, they will be regarded as thieves and will be killed." The last four words were so heavy that she trembled as if she was afraid.

The token of the second prince? She was silent. The Dragoon General looked at her for a moment, and the other hand holding the sword slowly moved his strength, and his sharp eyes began to emit a cold light, and a faint murderous aura seeped out of them.

After a moment, she moved, and the three men present looked at herβ€”she groped for a sleek, shiny object from her coat pocket, and a pinch of tassels swayed in front of the general.

"This is ......" The general's breath suddenly stagnated, stared at the woman who didn't dare to raise her head, and said in a low voice: "The crystal jade of His Royal Highness the Second Prince is unique in the world, you can go in." He took the basket, stepped back, and with a wave of his hand, both of his men stepped back in unison, making way out.

Unexpectedly, the timid and timid woman suddenly chuckled and said lightly: "General Su Wen Longwei's Black Feather Iron Cavalry is the soul of the army, and every soldier is one in a hundred. Why don't you look at it now? β€œ

Hearing this, the Dragoon General's face changed suddenly, sensing that it was the enemy attacking, but when he reacted in response, he couldn't catch up with the change in time.

Two black "swallows" flew out from behind the woman, and they were very fast, and in the blink of an eye, they knocked down the subordinates behind the general.

The general's pupils tightened, and he immediately drew his sword, and a cold light appeared, and the other sword came out of the sheath one step ahead of him, and he made a move, and the sword at his waist had just pulled out the head of the sword.

"Who are you?" the general asked in a cold voice, his eyes squinted to the left, a sword glowing with cold light was dangerously resting on his left shoulder, the blade was only an inch away from his neck, and he looked down the sword, only to see a tall man in black standing behind him, completely silent. He hadn't been aware of this man's existence just now, and he hadn't even had a breath, flying like a real swallow without leaving a trace.

"Are they really the elite guards of the Black Feather Iron Rider? The other "swallow" crouched on the ground and poked his finger at his subordinate who had fainted on the ground.

"If you have time to talk about the wind and cold, you might as well think about what to do with this guy. The woman pointed to the dragoon guard general who was held hostage and couldn't move, turned her head and smiled at the black-clothed man behind her: "Xu Daxia, why don't you knock him down? β€œ

When the dragoon guard general heard the woman jokingly call the enemy behind him Xu Daxia, he was suddenly shocked, his body trembled excitedly, and he asked in a low voice: "Are you the remnants of the Long clan?"

"Hey, they are, I'm not. The woman shouted dissatisfiedly, brushing her forehead bangs, revealing a pair of big watery eyes, like full of clear blue water, smart and delicate, as if she could see into the soul of a person.

The man who held the general hostage with a sword, that is, Xu Shu, ignored the questioning of the dragoon guard, but said lightly to the man who was squatting on the ground and playing with other people's subordinates: "There is not much time, hurry up and save people." β€œ

"Okay, got it. The man got up lazily, took off his black clothes, his tall body was as thin as a monkey, and his face looked at the woman with a smile: "Snow girl, where did you get that basket? β€œ

The thin monkey who talked to the woman was Bai Fan, and the woman was Xiao Xue, who had advised Xu Shu Bai Fan before.

"When I came in, I saw a woman in the small building, and I took it from her. β€œ

The lure enemy raid just now was a temporary method that Xiaoxue thought of, and after observation, there was no second exit in this underground secret room, and there was only one entrance and exit, which was very hidden. But what makes her wonder is why there are only three people who are guarding such an important person as a spy in a country?

Soon, though, she was no longer surprised.......

"What kind of lock is this? I can't open it!What should I do?" Bai Fan tugged at a chain on the iron door, but he couldn't keep pulling it.

Xiaoxue looked over and finally understood why Huang Li was so relieved to hand over the prisoner to three people to guard, this was the thing used to lock the prisoner, no wonder they could find the place of detention so easily.

"Don't waste your efforts, you can't open it. This thing is a nine-link chain, and it can't be broken even if the swords are added, and only the key can open it. Xiaoxue looked at the vain work with the chain, and sighed weakly and dejectedly. Are the people of the Long Clan all creatures with well-developed limbs and simple minds?

Xu Shu listened to what Xiaoxue said, and asked the person under the sword with a straight face, "Where is the key to the Nine Links?"

"......." The dragoon guard general was unmoved, looking fearless in danger.

It seems that there is no answer from his mouth.

Xu Shu gave up interrogating him, and only clicked on the acupoint, so that he could not move for the time being.

"Is there a way to open it?" asked Xu Shu as he withdrew his sword.

Xiaoxue shook her head: "There is no other way than the key." β€œ

The rescue is at a dead end, everything is ready, except for a key to open the door to success. It's a really annoying change.

Bai Fan squatted on the ground again in frustration, and he didn't know whether he was in a hurry or hungry, in short, at this moment of crisis, he was eating the things in the basket without regard to dignity.

Xiaoxue was simply stunned. Aside from her sister and Mo asking the crazy woman, it was the first time she had seen someone settle down to eat inconsequentially. Obviously the catastrophe is coming, does he still care about hunger?

"Well, this filigree is delicious. Now, do you want to taste it?" Bai Fan grabbed the snack and stuffed it into his mouth, and at the same time did not forget his companion's share, and handed Xiaoxue a golden snack.

........ This is the rhythm of swearing to death and starving to death!

Xiaoxue smelled a faint fragrance, looked at the snack in his hand, nodded his head for no reason, took it involuntarily, and squatted with Bai Fan to eat.

"......." Xu Daxia was messy in the wind, and he couldn't understand why there were two foodies in the rescue team. Sure enough, in the end, I was on my own.

Even the Dragoon General, who was temporarily taken prisoner, had an inexplicable feeling about Bai Fan and Xiaoxue, and they missed idiots very much.

"Not to mention, it's pretty good to be a prisoner, someone gives you good food, except for the beheading, everything else is good. Xiaoxue had nothing to do and talked to Bai Fan. It seems that he has already thrown his own planned rescue operation out of the clouds.

Xu Shu couldn't stand it anymore, and the exit reminded the two foodies to get down to business. "There is really no other way to do the Nine Links except the key?"

Xiaoxue came to her senses and realized that she was taken in by Bai Fan to eat it selflessly, so she threw away the rest of the snacks in annoyance, and asked herself in annoyance: "What's wrong with me?"

"Isn't there any other way to crack the Nine Links?" asked the good-natured Xu Shu again.

Xiao Xue held her chin, her mind hovered for a moment, and in a moment, a bright light flashed in her eyes, and she came to the iron gate like a wake-up. Staring at the chain that looked ordinary but actually had a lot of things inside, after thinking for a while, she took out the bag she was carrying, and took out a silver iron needle with strange teeth from it;

The three men next to him were dumbfounded, and even Xiaoxue herself looked at the nine rings that were opened in his hand in disbelief.

"How did you open it?" Bai Fan exclaimed.

Xu Shu pondered suddenly.

The Dragoon Guard General stared at Xiao Xue with wide eyes, and said sharply: "How can you have a key? There are only two keys in the world that can open the Nine Rings, except for one in the hands of His Majesty the Emperor, and the other one is in His Highness Tai. Why do you have a key?" The more he spoke, the more he felt that something was wrong, and the general thought that it could not happen. With General Long Wei guarding His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, it is impossible for the people of the Long Clan to steal the key, and they should not know that Mei Yuehan is imprisoned with nine consecutive ring.......s! The impossible thing is that it happened, this woman opened the nine rings in front of him, could it be ....... Will there be a third key in this world?

"It's noisy!" Xiaoxue impatiently ripped off the nasty chain and held the silver key in her palm, she herself was confused. Bai Fan and Xu Daxia are probably suspicious of her now, which is normal, after all, she can't explain the matter of the key. The bag was given to her by Lao Jiang this morning, saying that it could help her solve her urgent needs in an emergency. She never thought that the honest Lao Jiang would have any tricks, but since she gave it to her, she accepted it. Now it is indeed a problem, the Nine Rings is a lock carefully designed by the Xingyue family, which can only be opened with a key, she can't unlock the lock, and in desperation, she suddenly thought of Lao Jiang, so she simply tried her luck. As a result, luck was too good, Lao Jiang actually had the key to the Nine Rings. Just now, the general said that there are only two keys in the world, and Lao Jiang has no ability to get it from the royal hand, but he really gave her one. Now the question arises, how does Lao Jiang know that the prisoner is being held with nine links? How did he get the key? Everything is so strange, there are suspicious points in every place, and she is completely confused at this time.

Problems are one after another, time is limited, and rescue operations are urgent.

She put aside the doubts in her heart for the time being, and then went back to Lao Jiang to ask for clarification after the matter was over.

"Why are you two stunned?

Xiaoxue turned around and yelled, not caring about saying anything, and didn't bother to explain unclear things to them.

Bai Fan was yelled at and came back to his senses, thinking that this would be an emergency for his son, so he went up and pushed open the iron door according to Xiaoxue's words.

The dragoon guard general was in a hurry, and he was already derelict in his duties, and he said angrily: "You rebels! Stop this general, otherwise I will .......!"

"What is the matter?" Xiao Xue interrupted him, "Tap his pussy to shut up." β€œ

Xu Shu did not hesitate at all, and clicked on the dumb hole of the dragoon guard. Letting him scream like this might attract the people above, or Snow Maiden is thoughtful.

Bai Fan also moved quickly, and only used a little brute force to push open the iron door, the moment the door opened, a gust of yin wind poured out, and there was a smell of blood pouring out with the wind, which was very light, but in the cold underground, it still made people smell.

Xiaoxue frowned and rushed into the door. "Wait a minute!" Bai Fan and Xu Shu, who were one step ahead of her, blocked in front of her almost at the same time, and at the same time, the screams of sharp weapons colliding with each other sounded in the darkness.

"Someone ambushed here?" Xiaoxue unconsciously took a step back.

Behind the iron gate is the darkness of the invisible light, which can be said to be a real pitch black. There is no doubt that this is a prison for detainees.

You can't see your fingers, you can't see everything.

In the dark, insensibility has become the most sensitive "eye". She seemed to see someone in the deepest recess, looking at them with murderous eyes.

Hearing the scream, Xiaoxue knew that there was a powerful person waiting for them in this dark prison.

Huang Li is really as Anan guessed, he is a thoughtful person. In addition to arranging for dragoons to guard the door, there is also a hidden "guard" hidden in the door.

It seems that this Mei Yuehan is really important, and he actually let the Nanchu royal family go to great lengths to imprison him.

"Little girl, stand behind me, don't move. Bai Fan's voice was no longer as casual as usual, and he was as nervous as an arrow with a bow full.

Xiaoxue didn't object, and through the faint light that came in through the crack in the door at the back, she honestly hid behind Bai Fan's back. If it weren't for Bai Fan and Xu Daxia's extremely fast moves, she would definitely die here.

This hidden "guard" is very strong, and when she rushes in, he silently kills her. I can't see the moves, but I can clearly feel a sense of oppression somewhere in the dark prison, which is the breath of the strong.

Xu Shu had already drawn his sword and prepared for battle as a knight, but he still greeted the other party politely in accordance with the rules of the rivers and lakes: "I don't know which knight is here, can you come out and see it?" Unfortunately, the other party did not squeak in response.

Xiaoxue shrugged her shoulders and said secretly: It's time for your life to be at stake, Xu Daxia, can you not use the set of rivers and lakes to greet people, at least it is appropriate to greet people with a sword.

Sure enough, chivalrous spirit is sometimes a redundant prefix.

"It's not easy to meet?" Xiaoxue chuckled, took out the fire fold, blew it up, and suddenly saw a fire stand on the wall next to her by the light, she threw it with both hands, and the fire fold lit up the fire platform. The dark prison suddenly lit up.

Spacious space, all kinds of torture instruments hung on the wall, more than the above, complete variety.

The dungeon looked dilapidated, the skin of the walls peeling off, and the gray-black grease stuck to some of the walls, solidifying into a layer of skin that added a layer of thickness to the walls - it should have been a part of the wall that had been spilled on it by the dust of time, and the gray and black parts could still be seen in crimson color, and two gray-and-white stone pillars supported the top, opposite each other, side by side, standing next to the two walls.

The three of them finally saw the murderous man, who was also the "guard" who killed people. At this moment, he was sitting on a stone platform in the depths of the dark prison, holding a sword and a throwing knife in his hands. He kept his head down, half of his face hidden in the shadows, and they still couldn't see his face clearly.

When their eyes shifted to the two stone pillars, there was nothing else in their minds, only four wordsβ€”miserable.

The two young men were tied to the stone pillar with iron chains, their heads were shrugged, and they couldn't tell whether they were dead or alive. There was nothing on their bodies that could be called good, they were scarred, and their clothes seemed to have been torn by some powerful torture instrument, not to mention that their bodies were beaten to the point that their skin was torn apart, their flesh and blood were blurred, and their blood-stained clothes turned black, and they looked like they were imprisoned for many days and tortured by torture.

Looking at the man on the stone pillar on the right, Xiaoxue really couldn't laugh. If it had been before, even a few days ago, she would have laughed heartily, but - her heart hurt inexplicably.

Unable to care about anything, she rushed to the man's side, and before she could reach out to try to untie the damn chain, the man on the stone platform suddenly attacked her.

There were a few sonorous sounds, only to hear something fall to the ground in my ears. She turned her head to see a throwing knife and a stone lying beside her.

"It's not good to shoot at girls. At this time, Bai Fan's voice sounded in the dark prison.

The people on the stage just waved their hands and did nothing else.

Xu Shu had a cold face, always paying attention to that person's every move, and refused to let go of any gap.

"Thank you. Xiaoxue said to Bai Fanyan, turned her head to probe the breath of the man on the stone pillar, and when she heard his heartbeat, she breathed a sigh of relief that she was not dead.

"Hey, stinky man, have you overslept?" The next moment, she suddenly slapped the man, which shocked Bai Fan. "Alas, he's hurt like that, you hit people!"

"Can you wake up if you don't fight?" Xiaoxue said angrily, but she still didn't wake anyone up.

This damn and unlucky man is not the missing Duan Qianyan! According to Xiaoxue's previous temperament, when he saw his enemy capsizing in the gutter like this, he will definitely mock him to death. This shameless and faceless guy was just caught, how could he be injured like this. Didn't Huang Li say that he would treat him well before that thing was successful?

Treat a ghost! Sure enough, the royal people are all despicable villains who can't be trusted.

"You injured him?" Xiao Xue gritted her teeth, picked up the stone that Bai Fan had used to save her just now, and smashed it at the people on the stage.

The man turned his head, easily dodging the attack that was so weak for him. "It's not. He spoke coldly.

"It's not who you are!" Xiaoxue didn't believe it.

Who knows, the man's next words made the three of them stunned on the spot - "It was these two people who were injured in a fight." ”

These two men naturally refer to the two men tied to the stone pillar.

How deep and hateful it takes to be injured like this?

Xiaoxue turned her head to look at the other man who was tied up in disbelief, and said loudly, "Who is he?"

Bai Fan was confused, boldly stepped forward, lifted the man's black hair, waited to see his face clearly, and exclaimed: "It's Mei Yuehan!"

"Huh?" Xiao Xue looked shocked, "He's Mei Yuehan! Why is he hurt like that? No....... Why did he fight with Duan Qianyan?"

Bai Fan asked: "That man's name is Duan Qianyan, who is he?" I have been caring about him since just now, you seem to be very worried about him. ”

Xiaoxue pursed the corners of her mouth and did not speak.

Bai Fan asked tentatively, "Could it be your lover?"

"He's not! What nonsense!" Xiaoxue blushed and shouted, "Mei Yuehan has been found, and he won't save anyone!"

Bai Fan was inexplicably yelled, and he didn't ask anything anymore, but just began to rescue the unconscious Mei Yuehan who was faint.

Here, Xiao Xue also began to get Duan Qianyan down from the stone pillar, and seeing the scars on his body up close was really shocking, it must have hurt a lot.

Probably her action of saving people led Duan Qianyan's injury, he woke up from the coma, opened his eyes vaguely, and only felt that his whole body was in pain, and his eyes were also very painful. "You're ...... Who?" he asked unconsciously, only to see Xiaoxue's vague appearance, and guessed that it was a woman.

"Duan Qianyan, are you awake, are you okay?" Seeing that he gradually regained consciousness, Xiao Xue asked with concern, "How are you?"

"Xiaoxue....... It turned out to be a dead girl. He responded weakly, and found that it was her who saved him, the corners of his mouth rose, and he said with a wry smile: "I thought it would take a long time for you to come to save me, it seems that you are righteous enough, not an ungrateful woman." β€œ

Xiao Xue glanced at him, "You were arrested because of me, and I will never let innocent people be hurt for me." I'll get you out anyway. She paused, and then said, "You deserve it, why do you go to find trouble with someone like Huangli, if you are injured like this, only I will pay to save you." Forget it, I owe you favors anyway, so I'll pay you back. β€œ

When he heard this, he narrowed his narrow eyes, and his tone was like a thin thread: "You owe me a lot of favors, but I have a lot of notes this time, so you can pay it back slowly." β€œ

"You cheat, with your shameless humanity, I won't be finished in my lifetime. β€œ

"Then the next life, the next life, until it is over. β€œ

"Hey, don't take advantage of the opportunity!"

"You're not bargaining. β€œ

Relaxed and free noise, it seems to be a sweet conversation between a pair of lovers.

The private conversation between Duan Qianyan and Xiaoxue as if no one was next to him made the people who were hanging on the side inexplicably angry.

"Hey, how long are you two going to argue? There are still injured people over here. Bai Fan, who couldn't bear it, reprimanded the annoying pair of "lovers".

Xiaoxue helped Duan Qianyan, Duan Qianyan looked at Mei Yuehan, the other injured person, and said to Bai Fan lightly: "Don't worry, I don't shoot hard, he can't die." β€œ

"I just wanted to ask you why you are fighting like this. Xiaoxue asked angrily, in her opinion, these two people are sick and have the energy to fight, it is better to work together to fight the people on the stage, maybe they can save themselves and get out of here.

"This one....... Disagree. Duan Qianyan leaned on Xiao Xue's body weakly, and he could only be supported by her when he was so painful that he couldn't do anything.

Bai Fan also succeeded in rescuing Mei Yuehan.

Just when Xiaoxue and Bai Fan were about to take people out of the dark prison, the people on the stone platform suddenly moved. He dispatched a fierce tiger, full of murderous energy, and suddenly drew his sword and pointed it at the back of Bai Fan's head.

"Be careful!" exclaimed.

Bai Fan felt a piercing cold breath piercing into the skin of the back of his head, and before he could turn his head to take a look, Xu Shu over there was quick with his eyes, and his speed was above the enemy, and he intercepted the man's sword kill at once, saving Bai Fan's life.

"Why are you still stunned about this!Hurry up!" Xiao Xue carried Duan Qianyan and ran out of the dark prison from the left side.

Xu Shu didn't have time to take care of his companions, so he had to interrupt: "You two take the injured to the ground as soon as possible, this person is a master, I will stay and hover with him, and I will meet you later." After finishing speaking, he swung his sword beautifully and swept away the man's pursuit of Bai Fan. The man saw that he was a great master, and he fought him.

Bai Fan wanted to say something, but seeing that this scene was no longer easy to solve in a few words, so he carried Mei Yuehan and strode back towards the way he came.

"Can you hold on a little longer?" Xiao Xue dragged Duan Qianyan with difficulty, and her speed couldn't keep up with the vigorous Bai Fan.

Duan Qianyan half-opened his eyes, looked at Xiaoxue, who was sweating profusely, thought for a while, and said, "As long as you take me out of here, you will leave here immediately." Listen, it's leaving Dongzi. Got it?"

"Nonsense, I don't need you to say it, I'll leave this place too. Xiaoxue scolded a few words, "Since I left home, there are few things that go well with you." β€œ

Duan Qianyan chuckled a few times, and his tone was slightly helpless, "You dead girl, you are obviously unlucky, how can you put the responsibility on others." Seriously, I thought you wouldn't come to save me, what did the emperor say about the cooperation with your family, I believed it at first, but now I think wrong. β€œ

"What did you think wrong?" Xiaoxue asked him with interest.

Duan Qianyan said: "I don't know what the cooperation of the emperor is, and there is nothing good about it." But I understand you, except for planting you once in my hands, you are angry, and now there are people who use you, with your temperament, it is too different to not retaliate against the other party. So, I guess...... You came prepared this time and secretly saved me, right? I'm afraid that what kind of cooperation is the means you used to take revenge on Huang Li, I think tonight, you will definitely prepare a surprise for that guy. β€œ

"You know me. Xiaoxue praised, "I'm a villain." Whoever provokes me, if you don't descend, that person will not give up with cramps and bones. The kid surnamed Huang has pitted me in such a big pit, won't I become a grandson if I don't fight back? β€œ

Duan Qianyan sighed: "It's really the most poisonous woman's heart." β€œ
