Chapter 55: Tomb Conspiracy (3)
Wang Ergou interjected: "Sun Youcai knows me so well, but why didn't he arrest me directly?"
Invite Yue said: "It is Zhuang Qiao who wants to catch you and kill you, Zhuang Qiao is Sun Youcai's chess piece, how could he ruin the overall situation for a chess piece." ”
"The big picture?"
"Sun Youcai is also a pawn of the people behind him...... People who really play chess are extremely powerful. ”
"Boss He?" asked Wang Ergou.
"I don't know very well, in fact, I already knew about this Boss He, but I have never seen his true face, although heaven and earth are my territory, but I can't do anything about this person. ”
Wang Ergou frowned and said, "Later, you followed Peng Zirui?"
Invite Yue continued: Actually, I could have gotten into the same boat with you in Kaifeng, but I met Wu Jiazhi, and I was entangled by him for a while, so I missed the time to get on the boat, got rid of this big trouble, and rode to catch you, and finally got on the boat before you were deceived into getting on the shipwreck......"
"I remember you saying...... What lost ram...... Are you hinting at my ram's happy whereabouts?"
"Naturally, but I don't know where Happy is tied up, but that's the only way I'm going to get you out. But before we could do it, we got on the shipwreck. ”
Wang Ergou said: "You are really bold. ”
"Because I knew their plan in advance, I was still breathing the only air inside the cabin when you were drowning, and I didn't pretend to be unconscious and blend in with your crowd until the turtle ship arrived. ”
"No wonder I remember that I didn't find you in the end. ”
Invite Yue said: "After being rescued by them, I held my breath and faked my death, and was sent to the Cave of Death by them, and then I disguised myself as an ordinary villager and quietly followed behind Peng Zirui. ”
"What did he do underground?"
"After you were taken to the tomb by Lao Qiu, he also quietly followed, and then heard everything that Lao Qiu said to you, and then you found him. ”
Wang Ergou was suspicious: "He is also interested in these stories?"
"Because it was given to him by his master. ”
"What do you mean?"
"The people behind Sun Youcai knew that you were the descendant of the Broken Sword Hero, so they didn't plan to let Zhuang Qiao kill you, because it would be more beneficial for him to keep you and let you know the story of the ancient tomb.
"Why?"
Ying Yue pressed Wang Ergou's shoulder hard: "Because, he wants to open the ancient tomb." ”
"Huh?"
"Only by arousing the interest of you and the Loyal Society can the ancient tomb be opened again. ”
"He's so sure?"
"Hmm...... Then I ask you, now that you know of the man's scheme, will you stay away from the tomb, and will you never go in and see it?"
Wang Ergou pondered for a moment: "No, I will definitely open it, even if I don't do it, the ram will push me to do it." ”
Invite Yue said: "That's it......"
Wang Ergou asked, "I don't understand, how did that person know that there is an ancient tomb underground?"
"I guess...... He may be the old man of the Four Assassins, and perhaps, the decline of the Four Assassins and the Loyal Society has something to do with him......"
"You know a lot, too?"
Invite Yue smiled: "I'm afraid...... More than you, the heir of the broken sword. ”
Wang Ergou suddenly felt a chill on his back: "Hmm, who are you?"
Ying Yue gently patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry...... I'm here to help you. She sensed Wang Ergou's uneasiness and added, "We can cooperate with each other, not only to open the ancient tomb, but also to learn more about the secrets of the four great assassins...... Of course, I don't know everything, and I help you to find the answers to my curiosity...... Because the fall of the four great assassins is far more bizarre and strange than we can imagine......"
"Weird?"
"Hmm......" Wang Ergou felt the trembling of Invite Yue's hands, but listened to her continue: "Because, this is not just a matter of one ancient tomb, there may be the next ancient tomb, perhaps, we have to walk a lot of ruins left by the ancients......"
"The relics of the ancients?"
"It's a very ancient person, it's definitely not the Han and Tang dynasties, it's older than what history records...... And we are not the first people to explore their secrets, and the four major assassins are not the first batch, but all of them, the ending is almost the same, like your master Xiao Ducian can come back alive, it is unique......"
Wang Ergou wanted to ask a few more words, but suddenly heard footsteps outside the window.
Invite Yue held down Wang Ergou, came to the door and squatted, looked out towards the crack in the door, and after a while, the voice was far away, she turned back to Wang Ergou and said, "It's Mrs. Mao, she went out over the wall." ”
