Chapter 233: Before Dawn
"King Jing hid here, and he died before he could escape into the secret path, and the secret path was buried, but he was called Lone to know. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info this, providence also. ”
In my memory, the gloomy man said, and the golden crown on his hair glowed with cold light under the moonlight.
The reason for discovering that secret path is all because of the word "coincidence". In the nineteenth year of the Middle Yuan Dynasty, Emperor Zhongyuan, who began to believe in Taoism, suddenly came to the interest and allocated a sum of money to make the Baiyun Temple renovate as a whole, and when renovating the quiet rooms, a craftsman accidentally discovered this place.
The craftsman and all those who knew about it were all immediately executed, and this secret path became a real secret from then on, and only Emperor Zhongyuan knew about it.
This secret path leads to the foot of the Tsz Yun Ridge, and the exit is hidden in a deserted land temple, and not far to the south from the land temple, it is the official road.
After discovering this secret path, Emperor Zhongyuan asked people to stop repairing the Baiyun Temple, and it was not until the twenty-eighth year of Zhongyuan that he took Qin Su to the south and took her to walk in person.
In this life, Qin Su often needs to use this secret path, so it is necessary for her to explore it in advance.
Thinking so in her heart, she bent down slightly again and looked at Ah Kui, who was sitting under the porch.
Ah Kui had fallen asleep against the pillar.
Qin Su stretched out his hand and pushed her, and her body was softly tilted to the side, breathing evenly, indicating that the drug was working.
That's it.
Qin Su curled the corners of his lips and got up to look around.
The surroundings were still quiet, and there was no sound in the whole courtyard, and the only sound that could be heard was the sound of "Bi Peeling" when the Tibetan Scripture Building was burned by the fire in the distance.
She lifted the hem of her skirt, and under the cover of smoke and night, she walked quickly on the trail in the mountains for less than half an hour, and then came to the Danjing room.
The former Danjing room has become a ruin. The stone house was gone, only large pieces of broken stones were piled on the ground, many stones were broken from the middle, and the broken teeth were intertwined, like a wound cut by lightning on the earth, ugly and shocking.
However, the cloister of the Danjing room still exists. These wooden buildings seem to be more able to withstand the fiddling of the creator than stones, Qin Su looked at the ruined scene in front of him as in his previous life, and there seemed to be starlight in his cold eyes.
She first went to the stone house where Agu had fainted, examined Agu's body, and made sure that she had lost her breath.
After verifying his identity, Qin Su turned out of the corridor with light steps, walked about a hundred steps in the direction of the cliff, and came to the half-blocked wall in his memory.
There used to be a high wall, but now it is gone.
According to the memories of his previous life, Qin Su lowered his body and touched the bricks on the wall one by one, and the mechanism that opened the secret path was behind a certain brick, and there was a hidden pull ring under the loose bricks.
Black and yellow clouds rolled in the night sky, and there was not a trace of light.
Beneath the broken ruins, there was a thick pitch black, and the distant firelight passed through the broken stone wall, projecting away from the top of Qin Su's head, and disappeared in the endless darkness.
"Click", with a soft sound, Qin Su's movements stopped suddenly, and the tips of his frowning eyebrows had already loosened.
Got it!
She looked around as she carefully pulled out the brick, and within the reach of her fingertips was a cold, ring-shaped metal object.
This cold and hard touch made her heart shiver with joy.
This pull ring is like a most warm invitation, giving her a vague expectation and vague hope.
With a smile on her face, she gently pulled the iron ring, listened to the dull "click" sound in her ears, and looked at the hole that slowly emerged under the ruins.
At that moment, she looked at the cave in her eyes, as if she was looking at the most precious treasure in the world, full of joy and joy.
Lifting the hem of his skirt, Qin Su cautiously leaned out and stepped down the deep hole.
At that moment, she couldn't help but think of the "Piaoxiang Teahouse".
That's where she had already made an appointment with Fu Peng.
The corners of Qin Su's lips curled.
It was a great place to meet, just like this fallen Taoist temple.
For Qin Su, these two places, as well as the Yuanlou on Donglaifu Street, are connected to a Qin family's survival path.
It was opened by her own hands, the road to tomorrow......
**************************
The pre-dawn sky was as black as ink, and there was not a trace of light.
The thunder still sounded from time to time, but the lightning was not as strong as it had been in the middle of the night, and only occasionally loomed in the clouds, as if there was a giant holding a lamp and candle, and it was constantly shuttling between the thick clouds.
The aftershocks have subsided, but the noise in the city has not subsided, and the lights lit by each house reflect the dark clouds in the sky.
It is like the last days when heaven and earth will be destroyed.
Xue Yunyan stood under the eaves of the corridor with his hands in his hands, looking at the dark and oppressive sky in the distance, his quiet eyebrows and eyes were like distant mountains and empty valleys, leisurely and faint, and there was no emotion.
"It seems to be in the past. Xue Yunheng's voice came, as pleasant as before, but with a faint trace of compassion.
At this moment, his mind was a little complicated.
He was thinking about the letter left by the elder of Tanglinye.
The first letter Xue Yunyan got allowed them to find the lost human skin.
Zou Yishou is indeed very shrewd, and he actually thought of hiding the human skin in the largest trick hall in Shangjing City, the Furong Pavilion, and I don't know how he did it.
The human skin had been carefully nitrated, and the box containing the human skin was filled with lime and ice chips to prevent decay, and on top of the human skin, a blood letter was written with a needle soaked in the seal, and the location of the evidence was recorded.
"This blood book on the table, the words that should have been tattooed a year ago, the marks on the top have penetrated deep into the inner layer of the skin, indelible. After Duan Ma looked at the human skin, he said, and then pointed to a small passage under the human skin, the tattoo in that place was the place where the evidence was hidden. Duan Ma explained: "These small characters are only pierced, and they are only half a month at most, and the Zhu Yin is still new, and there is no penetration under the skin." ”
A year ago, when Zheng Yishou gathered all the evidence, he knew that the matter was dangerous, so he stabbed the blood letter on his chest to show his determination and keep it secret. After seeing the human skin, Mr. Chen sighed with emotion: "He may want to leave some clues so that we can find this human skin." It's a pity that it didn't have time. ”
Mr. Pak agrees: "It should be so. He stumbled at the gates, most likely on purpose, to show us the way. At that time, he may have realized that he would not be able to escape from the capital. ”
Mr. Bai is a strategist under Xue Yunyan, and he is also a scheming figure.
After the two gentlemen finished their respective opinions, they glanced at each other, and there was a slight suffocation on their faces.
Zou Yishou is indeed a talent, and what is even more rare is his perseverance and decisiveness, and he can be so ruthless to himself. It's a pity that others are weak and can't succeed in the end, which is really regrettable.
"Find things first, then save people. Mr. Tanglin, it's really wonderful. Thinking about the past, Xue Yunheng sighed slightly, and there was a solemnity in his narrow eyes.
He walked slowly to Xue Yunyan, took his hands, looked at the thick dark clouds piled up in the eastern sky, and seemed to be a little distracted, and after a long time, Fang asked, "What are the evidence...... Everything, all gone?"
"It's all right. Xue Yunyan said, his gaze was cast into the distance, far away and empty: "Zheng Chengwei is extremely careful, and he also has some means, the hiding places are all over the way from Fujie to Shangjing, and there are also anagrams, if it is not for my surname Xue, I am afraid that I will not be able to get it." Some things happened when Fu Jie and Xia Chenghu met, and he wrote them all into the mystery, which was extremely fine. ”
When it comes to business, he has obviously more words, but his expression is indifferent, as if he has no intentions. (To be continued.) )
