Chapter 057: The Cellar (3)
Jian Ning secretly took off a small sachet on her belt with one hand and held it in her hand.
The moves of the black-clothed dead man also became more and more ruthless, raising his knife and rushing straight towards Jian Ningmian's door. The silver needle in Jian Ning's hand was about to run out, and in this case, Jian Ning put away the few silver needles left.
Looking at the sword that was about to pierce his heart, Jian Ning forced himself to calm down. At the last moment, a dodge dodged his vital point. The moment the end of the sword slashed across Jian Ning's arm, Jian Ning didn't have time to feel the pain of the broken flesh, and seized this hard-won opportunity to sprinkle all the drugs in the sachet in his other hand towards the dead man's face.
The dead man's eyes were immediately fascinated by the medicinal powder, and taking this opportunity, Jian Ning shot out three silver needles in a volley with lightning speed. Because of the extremely close distance, Jian Ning made a desperate bet, and the three silver needles all entered from the center of his eyebrows and shot out from the back of his head.
Jian Ning looked at the sword that had stopped an inch in front of his heart, and only then did he truly realize the thrill of that moment just now. If she was slowing down for a second, maybe it was not someone else who fell at this moment, but herself.
Almost experiencing life and death, Jian Ning no longer had the slightest strength, and the whole person leaned against the wall weakly. Holding the bleeding wound on his other arm with one hand, he gasped for air.
When Xiahou Yan saw Jian Ning's thrilling moment just now, his eyes were almost red, and his whole person was like Shura, full of almost suffocating murderous aura and gloom. In the face of such a Xiahou Yan, although those dead soldiers fought to the death, they still died under Xiahou Yan's sword one by one.
I don't know when, the man in black just now has disappeared. At this moment, Xiahou Yan didn't care about anything else, almost flew to Jian Ning's side, and asked, "How?" Let me see the wound! ”
Xiahou Yan raised Jian Ning's hand slightly, and Jian Ning broke out in a cold sweat. In modern times, she is not a rich lady. But I haven't suffered any of this. Jian Ning has been in good health since she was a child, not to mention such a sword injury, even a hanging bottle. It's rare to get an injection or something.
Looking at Jian Ning's painful face, Xiahou Yan didn't dare to touch her again. He immediately tore off a strip of cloth from the hem of his inner clothes, and then took out the gold sore medicine from his body, and quickly and skillfully helped Jian Ning deal with the wound.
"But can you still go? If not, I'll take you out now! Xiahou Yan almost gritted his teeth and said this.
Never once had he watched someone hurt a woman in front of him and could do nothing. What's more, this woman is still the one he wants to protect.
Thinking like this, Xiahou Yan's heart was even more cold. This time, he wrote down the account for the time being. There will always be a time when Ai Gaoyi will return, and it will depend on whether he can bear it at that time.
As soon as Jian Ning heard Xiahou Yan's words, she immediately leaned against the wall and straightened up and said, "I'm fine." Anyway, I'm going to get things straight. ”
It's all here, how can she stop there, otherwise this injury will not be in vain.
"But now that you are injured, if you encounter what happened just now" Xiahou Yan said with a gloomy face and a frown.
"Doesn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince think you can't protect me?" Jian Ning looked at Xiahou Yan's face, but instead raised her eyes to look at Xiahou Yan and said.
Xiahou Yan heard Jian Ning say this. A look of unknown meaning flashed in his eyes, and he didn't say anything more, helping Jian Ning to continue walking forward.
The gold sore medicine on Xiahou Yan's body is really excellent, it only took a moment, the blood on his arm has stopped, maybe this medicine still has the effect of relieving pain. Jian Ning felt that her arm was not as painful as it was just now.
"Wait. There is a strong smell of medicine in the front! And there is a faint smell like the monster just now" Suddenly, Jian Ning stopped and said to Xiahou Yan.
Listen to Jian Ning say this. Xiahou Yan also calmed down and sniffed carefully. But his sense of smell was not as good as Jian Ning after all, and he could only smell the strong smell of medicine wafting in the air, and he couldn't smell anything else.
"If that's the case, there must be the bottom of the vault ahead." Xiahou Yan looked at the unbrightly lit passage in front of him, and said with a frown.
Hearing this, Jian Ning leaned on Xiahou Yan and took out two blue pills from his arms, handed one of them to Xiahou Yan and said: "This is the poison avoidance pill that Jiu'er once gave me, although it can't solve all kinds of poisons, but it can solve ordinary drugs and poisonous gases, and no matter how bad it is, it can reduce the poisonous effect." Just in case, it's better to eat one. ”
When Xiahou Yan heard Jian Ning say this, she didn't hesitate, she just took it and ate it.
Both of them walked forward cautiously, and as the distance shortened, Xiahou Yan also smelled what Jian Ning had just said. I was even more cautious in my heart, for fear of suddenly rushing out of a monster like the one just now.
After walking slowly forward for a while, Jian Ning and the others finally saw a piece of light. After coming out of the passage, Jian Ning found that this was actually an underground prison.
When she first touched this secret scene, Jian Ning was not only surprised but also frightened. It's not so much a prison as a hell, a real room.
The chamber was huge, with the exception of a prison cell that was almost embedded in the wall, and consisted of a dozen or so huge iron cages. The iron cages were faintly stained with blood, and although they had dried up, they could still guess the tragic situation at that time.
Looking at the bottles and jars on the long table and the various herbs on the ground, as well as the corpse that had rotted and could not see the prototype, Jian Ning couldn't help but feel a wave of nausea and chills.
It's a pity that after looking around, I didn't see half a figure, so it can be seen that the building has long been empty.
Suddenly, Jian Ning found something, broke away from Xiahou Yan's hand, and hurriedly walked there.
In a corner in front of the cell, Jian Ning crouched down and picked up a tiny blood-red amber bead.
Jian Ning rubbed this bead carefully, and tears fell unconsciously, looking a little excited.
When Xiahou Yan saw it, he stepped forward and asked, "This bead"
"This is something that Jiu'er has always worn on her hands. She didn't like to wear jewelry, saying it was a burden, but she always carried a string of blood-red amber beads on her hands. Jian Ning stepped forward with the amber beads, handed them to Xiahou Yan and said, "And you see, each bead of Jiu'er is engraved with a small 'nine' character, which is unique." ”
When Xiahou Yan heard this, he really saw that the amber bead was engraved with a small "nine" on it.
He looked around again and said, "According to the situation here, the person should have just left, and he was obviously transferred in a hurry. ”
"Transferred?" Jian Ning didn't know what kind of mood she should be in, she finally found here, but she was still a step too late.
Jian Ning looked around, and said with a hint of disbelief in her tone: "There are walls all around here, and there is no way out." Not to mention that the way we came has been blocked, even if we came all the way, they can't go there, so how did they move away? ”
No wonder Jian Ning thought so, just because he looked at the situation here, he could guess that some of the people who were removed should not be able to do so on their own at all.
"This secret room is exquisitely set up, and there will never be only such an exit." After saying that, he walked to the wall and knocked on it.
Xiahou Yan was looking for another outlet there, while Jian Ning looked at the medicinal materials and the bottles and jars here.
Although she is not as good as a doctor, she has read a lot of medical pharmacopoeia before, and with the relationship between Jiu'er, she is still more than good at identifying some medicinal materials.
Looking at those medicinal materials, Jian Ning's brows tightened even more, a large part of these medicinal materials were the ones they had found. Others are rarer poisonous weeds.
Looking at these decomposing corpses and those iron cages, Jian Ning could guess a thing or two, but after all, he felt that such a thing was absurd and cruel, and he should not.
As for those bottles and jars, most of them have been made into medicines or semi-finished products, and the use of these things cannot be seen by Jian Ning's effort.
After looking around, Jian Ning didn't find anything else. Suddenly, there was a feeling of uneasiness in my heart, Jiu'er was locked up here, does that mean that Zijin was also locked up here with her?
But if it is based on Zijin's kung fu and resourcefulness, shouldn't she leave no clues at all? Or is Zijin not here at all, or has something happened to him?
The more Jian Ning thought about it, the more anxious her heart became. Quickly walked to Xiahou Yan's side and said, "But have you found a way out?" ”
When Xiahou Yan heard this, he knocked on the wall in front of him with his hand, and said to Jian Ning: "The back of this wall is empty, there should be an exit behind it, but I don't know where this mechanism is?" ”
When Jian Ning heard this, she immediately stepped forward to take a look, frowned, and said, "You have to go out quickly, you can't delay any longer." ”
Looking at Jian Ning like this, Xiahou Yan was silent for a moment and said, "You stand back, I'll see if I can break this wall directly." ”
According to the echo of the wall, he judged that the wall should not be too thick, and if he struck it with all his might, he should be able to get out. I just don't know if this secret room can withstand such an impact.
Hearing this, Jian Ning took a few steps back. At this time, he would not doubt what Xiahou Yan said, he said yes, and she would believe it.
In order to avoid the collapse of the secret room, and in order to test the true thickness of the wall, Xiahou Yan only used eighty percent of the internal force and struck a palm towards the wall. The chamber shook because of the huge impact. And that wall was suddenly shaken off a layer of wall ash.
But even so, the wall did not change much, and it was clear that the blow was not successful.
After Xia Houyan stopped for a moment, he used ten percent of his strength, preparing to break the wall with one blow this time. But just as he was about to make a move, he was stopped by Jian Ning.
"Don't do it again." Jian Ning hurriedly said, "Just now, this has already caused a lot of shock in this secret room, if you do it again, I'm afraid it won't be optimistic." But before the others got out, the secret room collapsed first. (To be continued)
