Chapter 33: Accidents

Yan Lan made a choice, took a deep look into the distance, destroyed the note, straightened out his clothes and went to Zhoumen.

Coming to Zhoumen during the day is not as weird as the night, but it is still cold everywhere. Yan Lan didn't just wait at the door this time, but walked inside, the rubble and rubble were spread all over the ground, the vines climbed the edge of the wall, and there was silence all around. Yan Lan grasped the scabbard with his left hand, ready to strike at any time, and walked step by step towards the two gates facing him.

These two doors seem to be the closed mouths of fierce beasts, and if they are not in the abyss, they can eat people at any time, Yan Lan cheered up his spirit, pushed hard, and the door kicked up dust and creaked open, and inside was a dilapidated room, the tables, chairs and benches were covered with dust and cobwebs, Yan Lan wondered in his heart: Is it just because this place is desolate and hidden that he was invited here, and there are no other mysteries?

Yan Lan was still not very relieved, took the sword and picked up the curtain to peek in, it was no different from the dilapidated outside, Yan Lan retreated to the table with a doubt, and suddenly, "Yan Gongzi came early!" ”

It was that creepy voice again, Yan Lan was so anxious that she grabbed her sword and held it across her chest, "Don't pretend to be a ghost, come out!" ”

There was another dead silence, Yan Lan tentatively took two steps forward, and the wooden plank under his feet suddenly opened downward, and Yan Lan fell unprepared.

Yan Lan was startled and used her internal strength to stabilize her frustrated body, and landed on a flat ground, "Yan Gongzi, please." ”

A black-masked man stood in front of Yan Lan, and his voice was the same as that of the silver-masked man, Yan Lan laughed and followed the black-masked man.

On the other side, Qiao Yiling came to Siyi Building to ask Yan Lan if there was any movement, Sheng Lingyun and Xiao Ziyan went to check the stronghold of the Dark Pavilion, and Xu Yunxi contacted Yunxia members from all over the country to watch the movements of the other eight sects.

Qiao Yiling found out in order to prevent the shock, and came to Yan Lan's room directly from the back, knocked on the door, but no one answered. Qiao Yiling first went around to make sure that there was no one, and then came to Yan Lan's window, and went in directly, Yan Lan's room was empty.

Could it be that the Dark Pavilion contacted him, why didn't he know about us? Qiao Yiling thought about it in his heart, and heard movement outside, and the Shocking Wind Gate Poplar and the eldest disciple whispered through Yan Lan's room from the corner, seeing that they were sneaky, I was afraid that it was related to the Dark Pavilion.

No, if the Storm Gate gets the order to leave Dusk Xuan today, where do they go to find the traces of the Dark Pavilion, Qiao Yiling thought about it and decided to take a risk and follow these two people.

Qiao Yiling hid all the way, the direction of these two people was still Zhoumen, Qiao Yiling waited for the two to walk to the garden, and gently lay down to the door, and the two disappeared.

After waiting for a long time and still not seeing anyone, Qiao Yiling saw that this place was very weird, gritted his teeth, and took the weapon to find out. She also opened the door like Yan Lan, wondering, why did the two of them disappear, is there a secret way?

Qiao Yiling carefully inspected all the things on the ground, this place has been abandoned for a long time, and the government should have seized and requisitioned it, but there is no seal or seal, it seems that there is still an owner, is it a dark pavilion?

The items around have been tried, there is no mechanism, Qiao Yiling saw that there was a dusty place on the ground, squatted down and tried to knock it, but it was empty! Qiao Yiling was secretly happy, this is it.

She knocked around on the ground, all the way to the foot of the table, the table was obviously lifted, and it could be seen from the traces on the ground that it had moved a little, Qiao Yiling raised the table leg and saw that there was a machine buckle underneath, she pressed it lightly, and the empty place just now opened.

Qiao Yiling hurriedly ran over, and it was pitch black below, and she mustered all her strength to jump down and landed steadily on a flat ground.

There was a little light overflowing in front, Qiao Yiling moved to the light, it was a hidden door, she approached the door to listen for any movement, and there was a dead silence.

There must be ghosts here, Qiao Yiling was struggling with whether to leave first or continue to go deeper, and suddenly, she seemed to hear an angry roar "What do you mean"! Qiao Yiling can't manage it so much, and it will be even more difficult to miss this opportunity.

She gently pushed open the door and walked in cautiously, this is a cloister avenue, the surrounding walls are lit with lights, afraid that there is a mechanism, she casually took out a copper coin and rolled forward, the copper coin landed, a cold arrow came towards her, Qiao Yiling staggered to dodge, it seemed that she couldn't touch the ground, she borrowed strength from the walls on both sides like a dragonfly, and successfully walked to the end of the corridor.

Right now, I want to turn left, there is a room the size here, the lights are dim, and the sound of what I spoke just now is hidden again, but it shouldn't be too far from here, and there is no one guarding here, it seems that there are not many people in the secret passage, maybe it is just the leader to talk to the storm gate, what about Yan Lan?

Qiao Yiling still took out the copper plate to try, there was nothing abnormal, she walked to the bookshelf with cat steps, there were stacks of scrolls on the bookshelf, and she had to find a hiding place for herself first. Qiao Yiling tried the weight of the bookshelf, lifted the internal force upward, moved the bookcase a slit, and lifted the other side slightly, it looked the same as the original, but there was more place for her to hide in the back.

Qiao Yiling was about to go further inside, she could faintly hear human voices here, but she couldn't really hear it. She held her breath and walked forward quickly against the wall, moving to the corner, there is a corridor, where the voices are clearer, it seems that after this corridor is where they are, Qiao Yiling was about to take a step, when he saw a figure appear in the other corner, accompanied by human voices.

Qiao Yiling nervously retracted her feet and hid in the slits of the bookshelf, fortunately she left a way back, otherwise she would have died here.

The voice became clearer and clearer, "Pavilion Master, then let's just say okay and take the next step." "It's Yan Lan, he's really here.

After Yan Lan finished speaking, he took two steps forward, and suddenly stepped on something under his feet, Yan Lan stopped again, "Pavilion master, let's go back, the Shocking Wind Gate is still waiting for your explanation!" ”

The silver-faced man was originally going to accompany him out, but seeing that his face changed slightly, something was abnormal, it seemed that there was a demon!

The silver-masked man didn't refuse, but just stood still, "Young Master Yan, I look forward to your return to the flame knife." ”

Qiao Yiling saw the silver light under the cloak behind the bookshelf, and was startled by this voice, goosebumps rose and went straight into his heart, could this person be taught by the Golden Lotus, so cold!

Yan Lan only squeezed out a smile, turned around and strode away, seeing him turn the corner, the silver-faced person lowered his head, and there was a copper plate lying quietly on the ground, so it was......

Qiao Yiling followed his gaze, it turned out to be her copper plate, and secretly screamed that it was not good......

Yan Lan returned the same way he came, and when he returned to the ground, he was holding a copper coin and a cold arrow in his hand, and his heart was up and down, who entered the secret passage, was it Xu Yunxi, where are they now?

Qiao Yiling had been hiding behind the bookshelf, and when she saw the silver-faced man motionless, she began to panic, but she still tried to hold her breath. At this time, another voice came from behind, and Yang Shu came over scolding, "Pavilion master, call the pavilion master to come out!" ”

Qiao Yiling's head was full of question marks, didn't Yan Lan meet with the frightening wind just now?

This group of people walked here, facing the silver mask, Yang Lima closed his mouth, and spoke less impulsively, "Why is the pavilion master avoiding us?"

The black-faced man walked up to the silver-faced man, "Pavilion master, they have to ......" Before the black-faced man could finish speaking, the silver-faced man raised his hand and motioned for him to stand down.

Qiao Yiling was shocked again in the back, these two people spoke exactly the same, it seemed that they had been specially trained, were they afraid that someone would hear their voices?

Odd......

Wait, it's not that they have mixed into the Jianghu sect, and they are afraid of meeting someone they know! Qiao Yiling was taken aback by the thoughts in his mind, and quickly recalled the people around him and comforted himself: Everyone is here, scare yourself.

"Master Yang is still just as impatient, so he is not afraid to follow the old road of the charter!" There was a hint of displeasure in the silver-faced man's tone, and two devouring cold lights shot out of his eyes.

Yang Shu felt offended and lowered his posture, "Pavilion Master, please forgive me, it's just that the Wind Gate is still waiting for your reply." ”

"The things are good, the silver will be delivered when you go back, just make the goods I want." The silver-faced man flicked his sleeves and strode to the chair in front of the bookshelf and sat down.

"Then this shipment is finished......" Poplar asked tentatively.

"Master Yang has talked too much, I will inform you if there is any arrangement!"

The silver-faced man's words faintly told him to shut up, and the black-faced man sensed that something was wrong, and raised his hand, "Master Yang, please!" ”

Yang Shu suffered a dumb loss this time, and he couldn't say anything about his suffering, so he had to go back, and the black-faced man followed behind to send them off.

After they turned the corner, the silver-faced man suddenly got up and approached the bookshelf, Qiao Yiling was hidden behind the scroll, and he could see the chest hidden under his cloak, the silver-faced man did not say a word, Qiao Yiling knew that it was impossible to escape, and held the flute in his left hand and made a gesture of drawing his sword.

When the silver-faced man was only one step away from the bookshelf, he suddenly turned to the side, and reached out to reach Qiao Yiling, Qiao Yiling was startled, so he had to retreat, and the bookshelf fell down. Qiao Yiling pulled out the long sword in his right hand, slashed at the silver-faced man diagonally, the silver-faced man leaned back, grabbed Qiao Yiling's wrist and pulled it down, Qiao Yiling felt the feeling of falling to the ground, hurriedly rolled forward and crossed the silver-faced man, broke free from the restraints, and then ran to the aisle.

The silver-faced man didn't chase after him, he sat back on the chair in the hall lazily, and as soon as Qiao Yiling walked around the corner, he was forced back by the black-faced man.

Qiao Yiling was trapped in front and back, so she had to fight as hard as she could, she turned and pointed on her toes, stabbing at the silver-faced man, trying to unmask him. How could the silver-faced man let her wish, in an inch away, two fingers clamped her long sword, and sent it to the side, Qiao Yiling took the opportunity to let go of her hand and stretched out to the mask, the silver-faced man didn't expect her to have this, the mask was pulled away a little, and quickly stretched out his left hand to grab Qiao Yiling, pulled it into his arms, and hooked her neck, "Don't you want to live, Miss Qiao?"

Qiao Yi couldn't move, so she had to admit it, at least now it seemed that the silver-faced man would not kill her, and simply stopped resisting.

The silver-faced man shook his head slightly, and motioned for the black-faced man to tie up Qiao Yiling, and Qiao Yiling was arrested like this.

Yan Lan returned to the inn, her heart was uneasy, and after thinking for a long time, she still went to Yanbo Building to find Xu Yunxi and them, and happened to meet Xu Yunxi who came back downstairs.

"Yan Gongzi! What's wrong with you, you're in a hurry, Ling'er?" Xu Yunxi saw that he looked in a hurry, fine sweat broke out on his forehead, and he sighed in his heart.

"Isn't Miss Qiao here? Sheng Lingyun, what about them? Although Yan Lan was in a hurry, she still confirmed it first, so as not to make a mistake.

"Let's go, let's go inside!"

The two of them didn't talk much nonsense, and ran upstairs, the rooms of the three were empty, Yan Lan told Xu Yunxi about seeing the copper coins and cold arrows on the ground, Xu Yunxi was shocked, "What about the Storm Gate?" ”

"I also went to Zhoumen." Yan Lan had already expected the accident and looked at Xu Yunxi apologetically.

"Oh no, Ling'er must have followed the poplar. In this way, you go back to the inn and keep an eye on the frightening gate, and I will go to Zhoumen to investigate. Xu Yunxi finished speaking, and before Yan Lan could reply, people rushed out like shadows, Yan Lan originally wanted to say that he would accompany him to save people, but now he is really not good at coming forward, so he has to go back to Siyi Building to wait for news.

The shadow of the sun is slanting westward, and the Zhou Gate is shrouded by a layer of light, which is even more barren and desolate. Xu Yunxi climbed the tall tree first to check it, made sure that there was no ambush, and then walked towards the gate.
