Chapter 352: The Secret Passage in the Palace
The palace was heavily guarded, and if they left the cellar and made a movement to lure the guards in, they would be in trouble.
Su Ruoxi was worried in her heart, but fortunately, Mu Zihan had not returned to the palace yet, and she still had a little time.
Helian glanced at Ouyang Wanyue with the wind and asked, "Have you thought of something good?" ”
"When I came, I observed the topography of the palace, isn't there a small bamboo forest in the north? It is quiet and remote, and the guards are all on the periphery of the bamboo forest. ”
"As long as we sneak into the bamboo forest, it will not be easy to be discovered."
Hearing Ouyang Wanyue say this, Su Ruoxi thought about it and felt that this place was not bad.
So, Su Ruoxi nodded and agreed, "Okay!" Let's go to the bamboo forest! ”
The three of them left the cellar and sneaked to the vicinity of the bamboo forest together.
Fortunately, the three of them are very good at light skills, and they can easily bypass the guards.
Coming to the depths of the bamboo forest, Ouyang Wanyue chose a suitable place.
I saw that he drew a strange pattern under several bamboos, and then connected those patterns with arcs to form a circle array.
Su Ruoxi calmly watched Ouyang Wanyue's every move, and for some reason, she was suddenly a little nervous.
I want to know the truth urgently, but I am afraid that after knowing the truth, I will be full of despair.
Helian had been observing Su Ruoxi with the wind, and saw that Su Ruoxi looked a little nervous, so he said, "Since you have chosen, you have to face it." ”
"It's better to be brave enough to accept reality than to deceive yourself."
Su Ruoxi also understands these truths in her heart.
She exhaled softly and nodded in response, "Okay!" ”
It was about the time to wait for half a pillar of incense, just when Ouyang Wanyue had everything ready.
Ouyang Wanyue suddenly stared at the place outside the bamboo forest with sharp eyes, as if she had discovered something.
"What's wrong?"
"What's wrong?"
Helian Suifeng and Su Ruoxi sensed that something was wrong and asked in unison.
"Someone is coming, let's avoid it first."
Ouyang Wanyue said in a low voice, Su Ruoxi concentrated on observing the dark bamboo forest, and sure enough, she heard a slight sound of footsteps.
There was only one person who came, and listening to the slight sound of the footsteps on the bamboo leaves, it could be judged that this person's martial arts were not low.
The three of them glanced at each other, and they all hid on the bamboo, their hands and feet tightly wrapped around the height of the bamboo.
Soon, Su Ruoxi saw a middle-aged man in a black robe walking towards them with steady steps.
The black-robed man walked under them, and although the light in the bamboo forest was very dim, Su Ruoxi could clearly see that the middle-aged man was actually in the sky!
"What is he doing sneakily here at such a late hour?"
Su Ruoxi thought in her heart, she knew that Mu Zhongtian was pretending to be someone now, and his appearance here was indeed a little suspicious.
After taking Mu Zhongtian away, the three of them landed.
Helian glanced at the direction Mu Zhongtian left with the wind, frowned and asked, "Can the plan continue?" ”
Ouyang Wanyue pinched her fingers thoughtfully and calculated, "Time should be in time." ”
Su Ruoxi shook his head and said, "Tonight's plan is temporarily canceled, I'm going to follow and see what he is going to do." ”
"Xi'er, the things in this palace are too complicated, why do you bother yourself."
Helian Suifeng naturally didn't want Su Ruoxi to meddle in too many things, and his task was to bring her back to Cangyue Country.
Su Ruoxi glanced at Helian Suifeng with a strange look in her eyes, "Are you afraid that I know something?" ”
She had suspected that the matter of the fake emperor might also be related to Helian and their people.
Because the flowery demon told her that this fake emperor has been in the palace for half a year, and what kind of dream to find someone and enter the palace must be planned.
And the love wind is Helian Suifeng's side, so in her opinion, there are only two groups of people who are the most suspicious now.
One is Mu Zihan, and the other is Helian with the wind.
Helian looked at Su Ruoxi inexplicably with the wind, not understanding why she suddenly said this.
"Xi'er, if you miss tonight, if you want to lift the blood curse, then you have to wait another year, you have to think about it carefully."
Helian followed the wind and said the drawbacks, so that Su Ruoxi could think clearly.
Su Ruoxi was silent for a moment, and finally turned around and chased after Mu Zhongtian's figure.
Ouyang Wanyue sighed lightly, looked at Helian Suifeng and said, "Since she chose this way, there must be her reasons. ”
"Let's go, let's follow and see what the hell is going on."
Helian had no choice but to follow Su Ruoxi.
Su Ruoxi secretly chased Mu Zhongtian and walked all the way to the depths of the bamboo forest.
Finally, she saw Mu Zhongtian stop in an open field.
Just when she was wondering, in the blink of an eye, Mu Zhongtian disappeared out of thin air.
If ordinary people saw it, they would definitely think that they had hit a ghost.
Su Ruoxi resisted her curiosity and ran to the place where Mu Zhongtian disappeared to investigate.
Ouyang Wanyue and Helian Suifeng both followed Su Ruoxi and looked for suspicious places in that clearing.
"It is impossible for a living person to disappear for no reason like this, there must be something wrong here!"
Su Ruoxi spoke, and the three of them touched the soil on the ground little by little. In the end, it was found that under the hidden bamboo leaves, there was an iron plate.
They opened the iron plate and discovered an underground passage.
"I'll go down and take a look, you guys are waiting for me here!"
Su Ruoxi planned to go down alone to check, after all, it was easy to be found when there were many people.
Helian was not at ease with the wind, and wanted to follow Su Ruoxi, but was stopped by Ouyang Wanyue.
"Young master, it's better for you to be careful!"
Ouyang Wanyue cared, handed over a night pearl to Su Ruoxi, and let her go to the tunnel alone.
Su Ruoxi took the Night Pearl and walked cautiously towards the tunnel.
She walked through such an underground passage several times, so she was not afraid at all.
The tunnel was narrow at first, allowing only one person to pass through.
After walking for a while, she could feel the wind coming out in front of her, and the tunnel became smooth and empty.
After walking for a long, long time, when she reached the end of the tunnel, a stone gate appeared in front of her.
After pushing open the stone door, she was unexpectedly in a bright room.
There are candles lit in the room, and it is impossible to tell whose room it is, and the style does not look like it is from the palace.
Su Ruoxi hid behind a screen, and before she could go out, she heard the sound of someone talking.
And that person's voice couldn't be more familiar to her.
Su Ruoxi was shocked, and suddenly had a bad premonition.
"How could he be here? Is it really ......?"
Su Ruoxi secretly gritted her teeth and hid behind a bookcase, secretly eavesdropping on the conversation between the two.
Because she heard that the two people who spoke were Mu Zihan and the fake Mu Zhongtian!
