Chapter 1011: Traces of the Year (Three Watches)
That's where she had died in her last life, and no one was more familiar with it than her.
There seemed to be a faint smell of burning flames in the air, heavy and desolate.
Chu Liuyue raised his feet and walked forward.
After a while, there is a staircase.
Next to the stairs, there was a night pearl, and the light they had seen before was obviously from this.
She continued upward, and soon came across a jade slab.
There is a circular groove on the jade slab.
Chu Liuyue thought about it and pressed the night pearl next to her.
Fit!
Click!
The jade slab slowly moved away!
A ray of light seeped through the cracks!
Chu Liuyue raised her hand to cover her eyes, and when this jade slab was completely removed, she jumped forward!
Qihan and the others also quickly followed!
......
Suddenly came out of the dim and cramped tunnel, and after getting used to the light for a while, Chu Liuyue looked around.
After a glance, she was sure that this was the west hall of the royal ancestral hall.
Because of the fire two years ago, this place has become a ruin.
Grave, devastated, desolate and silent.
This is the first time Chu Liuyue has entered here since he was reborn.
She pursed her lips.
At that time, she only thought about dying with Jiang Yucheng and them, but she didn't expect that the fire would burn for so long and directly destroy the entire ancestral hall.
"It turns out that this tunnel really leads directly from Huayang Hall to the royal ancestral hall..."
After Qi Han came out, he stood behind Chu Liuyue, looked around, and couldn't help muttering in a low voice.
They must have done so for a purpose, but why?
Chu Liuyue was also thinking about this issue.
She looked down and took a closer look at the jade slab, the edges of which were clearly visible.
This tunnel... Maybe it came sooner than she expected!
The ancestral hall is an important place for the royal family, and idlers can't easily approach it.
Why did they take such a big risk to dig such a tunnel?
Moreover, there is another point that Chu Liuyue actually hasn't understood.
They want to kill her, in fact, they can do it in many places, why did they choose to do it in the royal ancestral hall?
.....
Chu Liuyue was stuck for a while, but did not find any valuable clues.
Almost everything here was burned in that fire.
Moreover, the royal ancestral hall is an important place, and even if Shangguan Wan comes quietly from the tunnel, she must be extremely careful.
After looking in the room for a while, Chu Liuyue went out and headed towards the main hall.
As soon as he went out, Chu Liuyue found that there seemed to be some fresh traces of repair on the periphery of the west hall.
These were obviously also requested by Shangguan Wan before.
It's just that before the repair was completed, something happened to Shangguan Wan, and the matter here was delayed.
Looking at it now, it's just embarrassing.
Chu Liuyue stood in front of the door for a moment, and then noticed something dripping on his face.
She looked up and saw that the sky had darkened somewhere, and there were raindrops falling in a trickle.
Soon, the rain was connected into a thread, like countless silk threads, connecting the heavens and the earth.
Chu Liuyue looked forward.
The main hall of the ancestral hall, which has been burned by fire, is still well preserved from the outside.
Because outside of this ancestral hall, there was an enchantment laid by Taizu himself.
In case of danger, it can be turned on.
It's a pity that the fire of that year was burned from the inside.
From here, some traces can still be faintly seen.
"Master. ”
Qihan followed, looking at her with complicated eyes.
I don't know what kind of state of mind His Royal Highness was when he decided to die here.
Now that I have returned again, what is it like to see this scene?
For Her Highness, this is the place where she has experienced the most painful days of her life, and if it weren't for the fact that today is to investigate the strange secret passage, Your Highness must not be willing to come again, right?
Chu Liuyue said:
"You stay in the corridor, and the main palace will go in and have a look. ”
Qi Han wanted to follow in, but looking at her calm and indifferent side face, he still nodded.
"Yes. ”
......
Chu Liuyue never thought that she would come back one day.
Even after she was reborn, her eyes were full of revenge, and she never thought of returning here.
She always seems to subconsciously avoid related questions.
I don't know if it's because she was once here, suffered the deepest betrayal, and experienced the most painful pain.
Before, she couldn't get close to this place because of her status.
And now, she has reverted to her original name, and can come and go here at will, but she has not been here once.
Unexpectedly, this time, because of an inexplicable secret passage, she actually came back like this.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, falling on the corners of the eaves and making a crackling sound.
Chu Liuyue took a deep breath, pushed open the door, and walked in.
It's like opening a box that has been sealed for a long time, and the air is filled with the smell of desolation and obsolescence.
Chu Liuyue looked fixedly.
Except for the tablets of the ancestors placed in the innermost part, which are still fine, almost all the others have been burned out.
She walked over, knelt down in front of the enshrined table, and bowed respectfully three times.
At the beginning, she was determined to die, but she almost destroyed the ranking of all the ancestors.
If that's the case, it's something she regrets and can't save it.
A translucent figure appeared on Chu Liuyue's side.
It was Taizu.
He stared at those rankings for a long time, and then looked at Chu Liuyue, who was kneeling on the ground and hadn't gotten up for a long time, and sighed softly.
"Girl, you don't have to blame yourself. It was Jiang Yucheng and Shangguan Wan who made the mistake, even if they wanted to be punished, it should be the two of them who should bear it. You... How innocent. I don't blame you, and if these people were knowledgeable, they wouldn't blame you. “
Chu Liuyue straightened up at this time, and something seemed to be surging in her chest.
A thousand words, but in the end, it only turned into one sentence:
"Thank you, Taizu. ”
Taizu smiled and touched her head through the void.
"You are a good boy, our Shangguan family, it is a blessing to have you!"
Although he was just a soul now, and he didn't feel anything at such a touch, Chu Liuyue's heart was still soft.
She looked around and exhaled softly, as if she wanted to release all the emotions she had accumulated.
"When I go back today, I will send someone to renovate the ancestral hall. ”
"It's not a hurry, what's the point of staying in this ancestral hall? ”
Taizu teased.
Chu Liuyue couldn't cry or laugh, but the previous trace of grief and guilt was relieved a lot.
It's too lucky to be loved by Taizu.
"Huh, what's that?"
Taizu suddenly looked at the corner of the table.
There was a dark red trail of blood left there.
Chu Liuyue glanced at it.
"That's when I bumped into it, and I stayed-"
Chu Liuyue was about to explain, but suddenly felt the water droplets in the dantian shaking violently!
