Chapter 122: Betrayal

In the blink of an eye, we entered the end of February.

As expected, Southern Chu and Western Wei joined forces of 300,000 troops to attack Northern Xia together.

Although the rebellion in Northern Xia has been quelled, it has also suffered a lot of impacts, but the demeanor of a great country, although it has suffered trauma, still mobilized 200,000 troops to meet it, and the war is about to break out.

Mo Ziyu now receives battle reports from the front at different times every day, and she is naturally very concerned about the current battle situation in her heart, and she has finally come to this point.

She must now follow her previous plan.

"Princess. The matchmaker called, "This is the latest." ”

Mo Ziyu took it and looked at it, and said: "Although Northern Xia has suffered some heavy losses one after another, Southern Chu and Western Wei are afraid that they will not be able to take any big advantage, but they are afraid that if it continues like this, not only countless soldiers, but also countless families will fall apart, and our previous plan will have to continue." ”

"Previous plans?"

"yes. Mo Ziyu nodded lightly, "In just a few days, we will go to Jingyun Mountain to find the treasure." ”

The matchmaker was silent for a moment and said, "Then princess, can you be injured well?"

Mo Ziyu nodded and said, "My injuries are already healed, there is no problem." ”

At this time, Situ Jiexing entered with a dog's tail in his mouth, and said casually: "Do you think Qiu Ming is a little wrong in the past two days?"

"Something is wrong?" Mo Ziyu frowned, "What do you say?"

"He's been sneaking away these days, but we've been living in seclusion here for a long time, where are any acquaintances?" Situ Jiexing said, "Don't you think it's strange?"

"Maybe people have made new friends here?" the matchmaker said, "Qiu Ming is usually steady and thoughtful, some things may not be told to us, and it won't be strange, right?"

"Then maybe I'm too careful!" Situ Juexing said.

The next day, Mo Ziyu received another message from Qingguang Pavilion, and after reading it, Mo Ziyu was silent for a while.

The matchmaker looked at her face and asked, "What's wrong?"

Mo Ziyu glanced at the letter to her, and the matchmaker frowned slightly, and asked, "What is the princess going to do?"

"Hold off for a few days, just wait for her. ”

"Wait for her?" the matchmaker was surprised, "why is that?"

"I have my own intentions. ”

A few more days passed, and it was the beginning of March, just in time for spring.

Mo Ziyu decided to go to Jingyun Mountain to find the treasure, and several people set off together.

In the first two months, because of the heavy snow and Mo Ziyu's injury, this treasure hunt has been postponed, and now when the spring flowers are blooming, it is also the time when the war ahead is in full swing, and Mo Ziyu has to start the previous plan immediately.

The snow in Jingyun Mountain does not melt all year round, although it is already spring, but it is still snowy.

After two months of research, Mo Ziyu and the others have basically deduced the location of the treasure according to the map of the treasure, that is, they followed the guidance on the map and went directly to the place where the treasure was hidden. However, this snow-capped mountain is still inaccessible to people, and if you want to go up the mountain, there are still more dangers on the way than you imagined.

There is no way up the mountain, you have to open a road out, do not dare to make a loud noise, there may be an avalanche, and along the way there is wind and snow, a little careless, may fall into the cliff, the process of mountaineering, full of difficulties and obstacles, fortunately, these people are martial arts foundation, although they encounter a lot of danger, their reaction and stretch out their hands are better than ordinary people, so they are also good luck.

They began to climb in the morning, and did not find the cave where the treasure was hidden until nightfall, and at this moment the clothes on the people were almost soaked, hungry and cold, and they did not know what danger there was in this cave, so they stopped for a while, lit a fire, and rested in place for the time being, ate something, and replenished their strength.

Looking at the entrance of the cave that was only one person high, Situ picked up the stars and roasted the fire, and asked suspiciously: "How many treasures can be hidden in this small cave?

The matchmaker looked at the map in her hand and said, "That's right, it should be here." ”

"Are you looking for the wrong place, let's go inside tomorrow and find out?" Mo Ziyu took a bite of barbecue, "Everyone take a good rest and recover their strength, everyone is tired today." ”

There was nothing to do all night, and the next morning, several people decided to go into the cave to find out the authenticity.

"Qiu Ming, you just guard the entrance of the cave. Mo Ziyu said, "Let's go in first, if there is anything unusual, remember to notify us." ”

Qiu Ming was silent for a moment, and then nodded: "Take care." ”

The remaining four people entered the cave, Mo Ziyu took out a few night pearls, let everyone illuminate, and then walked to the dark cave.

Qiu Ming looked inside worriedly, knowing that the backs of several people had disappeared, he sighed, his expression was both worried and guilty.

He stayed at the entrance of the cave, and after a while, he saw a black shadow flashing by, standing beside Qiu Ming, and asked in a deep voice, "How is the situation now?"

Qiu Ming turned around, knelt on the snow, clenched his fists and said, "I've seen Master, they have already entered, this place should be the place where the treasure is hidden." ”

"You're doing a great job. The black-robed man nodded and said, "He is worthy of being a good apprentice for his master." ”

Qiu Ming is an orphan, he has been dependent on his master since he was a child, and later when he grew up, he became a catcher, and the master went to Yunyou, but he didn't expect that his master would be loyal to the queen of Nanchu, and he knew that after he and Mo Ziyu were all the way, he had to do this by himself.

Qiu Ming was in a dilemma, on the one hand, his friend's righteousness, and on the other hand, the master's nurturing grace, in desperation, Qiu Ming still agreed, and on the way up the mountain, he left a mark all the way for them to go up the mountain.

"Master, what you want is treasure, and I hope you don't want to harm their lives. Qiu Ming said.

The man thought for a moment in silence and said, "I can't be the master of this matter, and the queen has to have the final say." ”

"Is the queen here too?" asked Qiu Ming.

"Hmm. The man nodded, "This road up the mountain is dangerous, but you have already explored a path, and we have escorted the queen all the way, and the queen should be almost there." ”

After a while, I saw a few guards escorting a woman up, the woman's face was red from the cold, she was panting, but her eyes were full of excitement, this person was Qian Yan.

Qian Yan has always wanted to prove his ability to Mi Zi, but after several shots, the effect was not very good, so he was a little frustrated. In the past month, the father introduced this Taoist priest to join him, and he didn't plan to reuse it, but this brought news that his apprentice was with the woman, which aroused her interest, and then learned that the woman was looking for some treasure. Now that Southern Chu and Western Wei are at war with Northern Xia, it is a time when military spending is tight, if the treasure is real and can be taken over, it must be a great achievement, which can make Mi Zi impress himself.

"You are Qiu Ming?" asked Qian Yan arrogantly.

"Exactly. ”

"You're doing a good job. Qian Yan smiled slightly, "If this time the matter can be successful, I will definitely add you to the rank of knight after I go back, you can rest assured." ”

"The grass people don't want to be promoted to the knighthood, but I just hope that the queen will not hurt the life of my friend. Qiu Ming said.

"Jiang Liu, they are all Mulan thieves, and they can only be killed by killing them. Qian Yan said, "You don't have to intercede for them again, otherwise you will be punished as anti-thieves." ”

Qiu Ming still wanted to say something, but asked his master to stop him.

"What about them?" asked Qian Yan.

Qiu Ming's master, Yun Hezi, clasped his fists and said, "Queen Qiqi, the four of them have already entered the cave. ”

"Really?" Qian Yan raised his eyebrows, "It seems that this is the place where the treasure is hidden, since it is a place where the treasure is hidden, it must be dangerous inside, and let them continue to open the way in front, let's wait first." ”

The guards quickly cleaned up the venue so that Qian Yan could sit comfortably, and then waited for Mo Ziyu and them to come out and take them down in one fell swoop.

It's already ten in the afternoon, but no one has come out yet, and there is no movement inside.

Qian Yan was a little impatient, frowned and said, "What's going on, why haven't they come out yet?"

"Maybe there's danger inside. Yun Hezi said.

"You two, bring someone in to check it out!" Qian Yan said, "Don't let them escape, if they die inside, you just keep going, you must find the treasure, understand?"

Yun Hezi clenched his fists and said, "I understand." ”

Qiu Ming was naturally unwilling to serve Qian Yan, because his master's relationship had made his conscience unbearable, so he was unwilling to go to the cave, Yun Hezi whispered in his ear: "If your friends have an accident inside, don't you want to rescue them?"

Qiu Ming lowered his eyes and thought for a while, and felt that what the master said made sense, if he ran into them, he could still help them, so he agreed to enter with the master and the two of them.

Time passed slowly, and soon it was ten minutes of twilight.

Qian Yan became more and more impatient, what happened in this cave, how did the two groups of people who went in still not have any news to return, this mountain is very windy, very cold, if you wait like this, I am afraid that I will freeze to death on this mountain!

"A few of you, go in and take a look, I'm afraid there's something going on. Qian Yan said.

The guard hesitated a little and asked, "Queen, we are here to protect your safety, what if we all go in, what will happen to your safety?"

"There is no one here, what danger can there be, you go in a few and leave two or three people here. Qian Yan said, "If you encounter any danger, you just come out, you can't put your life into it, you have to escort me down the mountain!"

"Yes!"
