"Lord Suo, wake up! How does it feel? Zhang Yunfan squatted in front of Suo Tu with a smile.

Sotu sat up with his head wiped and muttered, "Why is it dark, is it night?" ”

Zhang Yunfan booed and reminded, then lowered his voice and said, "Master Suo, it's me!" How did you get caught here? ”

"Master Zhang!" Suo Tu was obviously stunned for a moment, feeling that the voice of the words in front of him was very familiar, and only after carefully distinguishing it did he suddenly remember, and then he said with some confusion, "I was swept into it after the sandstorm came, and then I didn't know anything, didn't you save me?" At this point, he suddenly remembered something, "By the way, what about Mingxi Gongzi?" ”

Listening to his self-talk, Zhang Yunfan finally understood that Mingxi Gongzi and his party should have been arrested by the old man in an unconscious state......

From this point of view, things are complicated, there are two possibilities, one is that Mingxi Gongzi and they happened to be swept here by a sandstorm, and they were discovered by the old man, so they were caught in this dark room.

Another possibility is that the reason why the old man appeared here was simply for Mingxi Gongzi and others, and even that sandstorm was caused by him.

Zhang Yunfan's speculation is not unfounded, because the night before the sandstorm, the team was attacked by evil spirits, at first Zhang Yunfan thought that this evil was a coincidence, but later met Baili Zhanxiong, through this person learned the news that the Sima family was going to mutiny, and because of this incident, the problem became no longer so simple.

It is very likely that the evil was sent by the Sima family, and the purpose was to kill or arrest the prince of Mingxi. Judging from the current situation, if the Sima family is behind all this, then it will be clear that Mingxi Gongzi and his party are caught here.

"Next to you." Zhang Yunfan pointed to the side.

At this moment, Mingxi Gongzi was already on the verge of awakening, and he immediately woke up after being shaken by Suotu, but his symptoms were similar to Suotu's just now, because the psychedelic drugs in his body were not completely lifted, so he was still a little confused.

The rest of the people also woke up one after another, in order to confirm the previous guess, Zhang Yunfan asked one by one, and as a result, everyone suffered the same, they were swept away by the sandstorm, and then fell into a coma, and appeared here when they woke up.

After listening to everyone's answers, Zhang Yunfan looked complicated, sighed deeply, and then asked everyone to heal first, and then began to tell the current situation when everyone was in a state that had recovered, "I'll tell you a bad news, we've been arrested now, that person knows how to use psychedelics, and the person who came is not good!" ”

Everyone was taken aback when they heard this, and Mingxi Gongzi said in disbelief: "How can this be? There are still villains in the desert! ”

Zhang Yunfan explained with a wry smile, "There are bandits in the desert who make a living by hijacking past caravans, but the person we met is an old man, who doesn't seem to have much cultivation, and he is a person, in short, he doesn't look like a bandit, I suspect he is here for you." He stared at Mingxi Gongzi, his eyes full of solemnity.

"Coming at me?" Mingxi Gongzi was a little puzzled, "This is the first time my son has come here, he is not familiar with the place, he doesn't know anyone at all, let alone an enemy, how can he come to me!" ”

Mingxi Gongzi didn't believe Zhang Yunfan, so he defended himself, but as soon as the words came out, he was a little uncertain, so his expression was very unnatural.

Naturally, no one would believe the empty words, so Zhang Yunfan got up and pulled Mingxi Gongzi aside, took out the Longwei waist card and handed it over, "You can believe it when you look at this, but don't be too excited." ”

The importance of Long Wei to the royal family is well known, especially those who come out of the court, there is no one who does not know Long Wei. When Mingxi Gongzi touched the waist card, his heart suddenly palpitated, and he lowered his voice and said, "Are you?" ”

Zhang Yunfan was stunned, and after a little thought, he realized that Mingxi Gongzi must have misunderstood his identity, so he explained: "This thing is not mine, the sandstorm blew me near the ice lake, but I didn't find you after I woke up, so I went to the ice lake to move the rescuers, and I happened to meet Master Duanmu, at that time she had the same purpose as me, but she was one step ahead of me, but she was made difficult by the guards when she understood the situation, and was hung on a tree and exposed to the sun, and almost died."

At that time, I made some preparations to save her, and in the process of alchemy, that person appeared, and he recognized my storage ring, and knew that it was you who came, so he handed this thing to me, and entrusted me to tell one thing......" In the end, his voice became more and more, and he also used his divine sense to establish a temporary barrier, and the content was only heard by Mingxi Gongzi alone.

The two whispered for a while, and Mingxi Gongzi's face slowly became ugly, "The Sima family actually dares to rebel and want to murder this son, it's really bold." ”

Zhang Yunfan said: "Childe, now is not the time for you to be annoyed, you must come up with a countermeasure, otherwise things will be in trouble." ”

After being silent for a while, Mingxi Gongzi said: "Master Zhang, Long Wei has a rule, the cards are in the people, and the cards are lost!" Do you know why Baili Zhanxiong gave you the sign, but he didn't come in person? ”

Zhang Yunfan is indeed unclear about the royal affairs, but the prince of Mingxi suddenly asked this question, obviously with deep meaning, "I don't know, maybe there is something he can't get rid of...... By the way, he had a princess in the ice lake before, maybe he wanted to stay there to protect the princess. ”

Prince Mingxi let out a long sigh before explaining, "Long Wei's loyalty is unquestionable, but the reason why Lord Baili chose to stay is to protect the princess is one reason, but this is not the main reason, the ultimate purpose is to assassinate Sima Yuan, but he knows very well that the assassination is likely to fail, but he knows that he can't do it, and he goes with the determination to die, so he passed the dragon card to you and replaced him as the new Long Wei." ”

Zhang Yunfan was feeling Long Wei's loyalty, but he didn't expect Mingxi Gongzi to say this, he was taken aback, and said: "Childe, this kind of thing is not a joke, and I didn't promise him to inherit this glorious and great spy career." ”

Prince Mingxi said: "Since the establishment of Long Wei, it has been passed down from generation to generation, except for the Ice Emperor himself, the heirs of Long Wei are all selected by the previous Long Wei, and if you accept the Dragon Card, you are the new Long Wei." ”

"Still playing like this, Lao Tzu doesn't want to be a bullshit dragon guard, who likes to do this kind of drudgery, Lao Tzu is still busy cultivating!" Zhang Yunfan secretly slandered, and said casually: "Bailida is a good person, and the next time I see him, I will return this brand to him." ”

Mingxi Gongzi smiled strangely: "Master Zhang, it's not for whoever you want to give, the inheritance of the Dragon Guard needs to be recognized by the royal family, since Lord Baili chose you, and I also recognize your ability, so you must take this dragon card, if Lord Baili is lucky not to die, this son will play the Ice Emperor, and seal Lord Baili as the deputy capital of Longwei, and a new dragon card will be issued at that time." ”

Zhang Yunfan wanted to play a sideshow and kick out the trouble, but unexpectedly, Mingxi Gongzi actually targeted him, and he had to force the title of a royal dragon guard on his head, and he couldn't refuse if he wanted to.

"Okay, if you're ruthless, isn't it just a brand, what's the big deal, just take it, but let me tell you, I was pitted by your partnership, and if you want to expect me to do things for the royal family, it depends on the mood." Now everyone is a grasshopper on a rope, Mingxi Gongzi himself is difficult to protect, and there is nothing to be afraid of, so Zhang Yunfan is so bold to say this kind of thing.

Mingxi Gongzi was not angry, but patted Zhang Yunfan's shoulder with a smile, "Don't worry, unless Long Wei has bad intentions towards this Gongzi, even Bengongzi has no right to execute you, only the Ice Emperor has this permission, so you don't have to worry about being retaliated against by me."

But as a friend, Ben Gongzi must be clear, the Dragon Guard waist card is a good thing without taboos, with it, the entire Icefall Dynasty can run rampant with you, provided that it does not endanger the royal family, you should be able to understand the benefits, so, don't give Ben Gongzi an unwilling dead face, because there will always be a you will be grateful to Ben Gongzi. ”

There are two sides to everything, this truth is not unfamiliar to Zhang Yunfan, so he still agrees with Mingxi Gongzi's words, but who can expect it in the future, you must know that the royal family is not good, and the deceit in it is not something that ordinary people can understand.

For example, Mingxi Gongzi, don't look at him now, he looks good now, he only knows what the hell he thinks in his heart, and when he escapes, he may do something like unloading the mill and killing the donkey, these routines have long been played out in the palace fighting drama.

As a person who has crossed over from a civilized society, Zhang Yunfan is very aware of these facts and not the truth, so he is very disgusted with the royal family in his heart, but in response to the old saying, people can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes, and they can only reluctantly accept all this.

"Then I have to thank you." Zhang Yunfan's expression was helpless, and then he changed the topic, "What are you going to do next?" ”

Mingxi Gongzi muttered: "There are still eight people left, the first step is to leave here first, and then find a way to rescue my sister, so this ice lake must go, but now you can't swagger and put on a show, the past is grandiose, that is equivalent to death, but now I have no good way, I can only take one step at a time." ”

The two talked for a long time before removing the divine sense enchantment, and the prince of Mingxi summoned people to one place, but he was in trouble at the moment, and he had to escape first. Except for Zhang Yunfan and Duanmu Xianyue who knew the details, the rest of the people didn't know the real situation, but they didn't suspect anything.

After some planning, everyone made a decision, and decided to send Sun Da, who was the highest cultivator, to go up and feel the situation, if the old man was not there, he just took the opportunity to escape, if the two sides bumped into each other, Sun Da would drag the old man first, and the rest would take advantage of the chaos to come out.

Sun Da was already a cultivator in the Guiyuan Realm, and the dark room couldn't trap him at all, Edgeworth flew up to the top of the dark room, found the exit, broke through the wooden board and jumped out, and after a while, there was a sound of fighting on it, and then there was an old man's surprised shout, "How is it possible, how did you wake up?" ”

Sun Da sneered and responded: "What can you do with psychedelics, take ......"

"It's really hidden!" Zhang Yunfan suspected that the old man had cultivation at first, but his realm was too low to see, and now he heard the sound of fighting, and it was very intense, it can be seen that the old man's cultivation is at least the realm of returning to the yuan, thinking of this, he shouted, "What are you doing, go up and help." ”

Taking advantage of the moment when the two sides were fighting, the people in the dark room jumped up one after another, and when they came out, they joined the battle in turn and started a scuffle.
