Chapter 045: Kiss of Danger

"Flutter-"

It was the sound of a sharp weapon piercing into flesh.

Xie Fenghua's heart shook, and he felt that his hands and feet were a little cold. At this moment, she was in a high mood, and when she heard this sudden and dull sound, her thoughts were a little dull. Immediately afterwards, the wrist warmed, as if it was covered by someone's palm. The palm was warm and dry, and the wisps of temperature were transmitted to that layer of skin, and the cold touch poured by blood also warmed.

In an instant, the ice and snow melted in front of me, and the spring flowers bloomed.

Xie Fenghua finally woke up, only to find that Yuan Minzhou was staring at her with his eyebrows twisted, and his handsome face showed a trace of paleness. And he was stabbed in the chest with a short dagger, and the placket of his clothes was stained with a pool of blood, which was indescribably shocking.

Her pupils contracted suddenly, and when she saw the dagger in her hand, she understood for a moment.

Where is there any enemy?

It's just an illusion!

And she actually personally sent the dagger into Yuan Minzhou's chest, which is simply an unforgivable sin!

Suddenly, her fingers trembled, and she let go of the short dagger.

With a thud, the dagger landed on the table, and the silver blade was stained with a hint of crimson.

That's Yuan Minzhou's blood!

She stood up suddenly, crossed the entire table, came to Yuan Minzhou's eyes, and said hurriedly: "What's the matter?" Master Hou, do you want it? I'm sorry, I didn't mean to ......"

She kept saying sorry and stretched out her hands to bandage his wounds, but she couldn't do anything about it.

Yuan Minzhou raised his hand to cover the back of her hand, and said unhurriedly: "I'm fine." No need to panic. ”

As if taking a reassuring pill, Xie Fenghua closed his eyes, took a sharp breath, and when he opened his eyes again, he had already returned to his previous calm and self-control. Right now, Yuan Minzhou's injuries are unknown, and there is no medicine around her, what she can do is to take him out of here as soon as possible.

As for the customer, check it out again in the future!

But before leaving, Xie Fenghua has one more thing to do. The act of losing his mind just now seems to have been influenced by this drama. But when she lifted her foot, she kicked the censer on the table towards the stage.

The screams burst out, and the actors ran around to dodge.

At the corner of the second floor, Du Pingfei wore a cloak, looked at the movement below coldly, and suddenly said to Xiao Yao: "Send them to the Quanwu room to play!" ”

Xiao Yao couldn't help but exclaim: "That's the Marquis of Dingyuan......"

Marquis Dingyuan, but an important minister of the court!

"So what?" Du Pingfei's delicate face was covered with frost, his lips were lightly opened, and every sentence was life-threatening, "Since he is so close to the girl of the Xie family, don't blame the palace for counting him in." He brought it on himself! ”

Xiao Yao glanced at her and gestured behind him.

And Xie Fenghua was about to leave her seat, but she heard a click, and her ankle was suddenly caught by two iron locks, she wanted to break free, but she was hurt by the cold and heavy injury of the iron locks, and secretly inhaled.

She lowered her eyes, but saw that Yuan Minzhou's whole person was trapped in the chair, and between her eyes, she was about to lift her chair, when the soles of her feet suddenly emptied, and even the person with the chair fell vertically.

In an instant, the lid on the top of the head was also closed.

It's dark!

"Master Hou!" Falling down, Xie Fenghua immediately shouted.

An answer followed, a little ethereal, and a little weak, which showed that she had been hurt a lot just now.

Xie Fenghua's heart was full of guilt, and she asked him a few more words, and when she got answers one by one, she breathed a sigh of relief.

In the silence, Xie Fenghua heard the rapid sound of the wind in his ears, and his chaotic breathing, playing a song of stability in this darkness. At this moment, there was a sudden sound of iron locks colliding, and she felt her ankles loosen, and the soles of her feet seemed to touch something like an iron rod.

In the extreme darkness, time and space seemed to stand still. Xie Fenghua's eyes were closed, but his consciousness was more calm and keen. There was an icy smell of rust and the dreary coldness of ice. Her consciousness suddenly turned into a wandering pen, tracing the outline of the thing little by little.

Scratch it out at once, it looks like an iron cage?

Xie Fenghua stretched out his hand, and sure enough, he touched the cold iron bar. I measured the length and width of the iron cage with my fingers, and was shocked to find that it seemed to be tailor-made for her.

Is it to trap her better?

Xie Fenghua's heart sank, and he was even more worried about Yuan Minzhou's condition.

The darkness didn't last long, Xie Fenghua lowered her head, but found that there was a bright light on the soles of her feet, and it was at this moment that she saw the location of the two of them - they were actually trapped in a fast-falling iron cage.

Not far away, she saw that Yuan Minzhou's face was okay, and her hanging heart returned to her stomach.

Suddenly, the speed at which the iron cage was falling faster and faster, Xie Fenghua lowered his head, only to find that there was a small hole facing him. Her heart tightened, wondering if this could be the place where the iron cage fell?

As if to confirm this conjecture, the iron cage was getting closer and closer to the hole, Xie Fenghua couldn't imagine being crushed into a meat patty, frowned, and closed his eyes in pain.

But hearing a click, Xie Fenghua only felt that the iron cage passed through the hole, and then there was a violent earthquake, the soles of her feet were numb, and before she could relieve herself, the whole person followed the iron cage and turned around.

She opened her eyes and froze fiercely.

It was a spinning wheel, not very small, with identical cabinets standing on either side. The southeast, north, and west directions of the wheel were filled with bright blades, and the iron cages of her and Yuan Minzhou happened to be stuck in these blades, and one side of her face could almost feel the cold air emanating from the blade.

As she reached the highest point, her pupils contracted sharply, and a sentence flashed through her mind.

- Don't fight with me! In this power room, the first level must be set by me!

This is, the Quan Wu Chamber?

Xie Fenghua's heart trembled, and he couldn't cry or laugh for a while.

Going around and around, she actually fell into the trap she set?

"No, that's not right......," she shook her head suddenly, muttering to herself, "This is not the Quan Wu Chamber. Back then, the Quanwu room was originally on the outskirts of Tianjing, but someone moved it to the bottom of the opera garden. ”

But who is that man?

A figure flashed in Xie Fenghua's mind, remembering the cloaked man he saw at the side door, and a name suddenly jumped out!

Du Pingfei!

Except for Du Pingfei, she couldn't think of anyone who would be so boring!

It's just that I didn't expect that the emperor and queen were so idle today, and they went out of the palace at the same time to find trouble?

Now, she didn't have time to think about Du Pingfei's purpose for doing this, and in a whirlwind, she saw that Yuan Minzhou's expression was already a little wrong, and the blood red on her chest almost blinded her.

"Master Hou, how do you feel now? Can it still hold on? She asked anxiously.

Yuan Minzhou shook his head and pulled out a smile, "It's not a big deal." ”

Despite this, his face became more and more pale.

Xie Fenghua knew that he couldn't stay here for too long, so he glanced around, his eyes stopped at the black dot embedded in the wall in the upper left corner, and then said to Yuan Minzhou: "Master Hou, let's get out of here as soon as possible." But the wheel is controlled by a mechanism, and I have to destroy it. Can you reach out and take a bow and arrow from the cabinet next to you as you pass by? ”

Yuan Minzhou gave her a puzzled look.

Xie Fenghua lowered his head and said a little embarrassed: "I can't hide it, I'm afraid of those blades." ”

After saying that, she suddenly despised herself incomparably.

I thought that at the beginning, the blade on this wheel was still suggested by her, but I didn't expect that she would trap herself.

Yuan Minzhou glanced at the cabinet next to him, and his eyebrows furrowed. He had to take out his bow and arrows from the cupboard, and his hands had to be quick, or else the wheel would bring the iron cage over, and he would be greeted by a blade of silver light.

In the time of the turn of thoughts, the wheel had already turned several times.

Yuan Minzhou tried several times, and finally saw the right time, quickly stretched out the water, and took the bow and arrow in his hand.

But the question is, the two are spinning rapidly, how to pass this bow and arrow?

He looked at where they were, his eyes lit up, and as he was about to turn to the highest point, he threw his bow and arrow down. And Xie Fenghua was about to reach the lowest point, and he happened to receive the bow and arrow in his hand.

The tacit understanding is not bad!

Next, it's time to shoot an arrow and destroy the mechanism of the wheel.

The most difficult part of spinning archery is how to keep your body steady and aim at the target. When Xie Fenghua was making this wheel, he tried it himself, and even increased the difficulty again and again.

Fortunately, she was good at archery, and she was not afraid of these obstacles, first stabilized her body, then drew her bow to aim, and the arrow swished out.

There was a sharp thud in my ears, and then the wheel stopped. Xie Fenghua only felt that his feet were empty, and his body fell straight down. In the chaos, she only had time to shout, "Hold your head!" ”

The two of them fell into a smooth and winding passage, and although they were prepared to hold their heads at first, when they fell, their bodies rolled down the wall of the passage, and there was still a piercing pain.

At the end of the passage is a secret room.

The two rolled down to the door of the secret room, looked at each other, and lay still for a while.

"Master Hou, does it hurt?" Xie Fenghua touched his swollen forehead, grinning in pain.

Yuan Minzhou shook his head, except that his face was pale, he couldn't see anything unusual.

"Come, let's go into the secret room and have a look." Xie Fenghua helped him up, his eyes stopped on the placket of his chest for a moment, a thick guilt came to his heart, and he was busy apologizing, "Master Hou, I'm sorry!" I didn't know that Du Pingfei actually did it to you. ”

"Huh? You say Queen Du? Yuan Minzhou was surprised.

Xie Fenghua nodded, but he didn't dwell on this topic for too long, opened the stone door of the secret room, and walked in. The chamber was not very large, and it was simply furnished, with a table and stool in the middle, a red candle and a funnel dripping with sand on the table.

Xie Fenghua helped Yuan Minzhou to the stone bench and swept it over, his eyes full of puzzlement.

At the beginning, when she, Zhao Pei and Du Pingfei wanted to play in this power room on a whim, after several discussions, it was finally decided to set up three levels. Only the levels she set up focused on martial arts, and the other two focused on scheming. And Du Pingfei has been well versed in the scheming methods in the backyard of the deep house since he was a child, and set up a unique level in the second level. It's just that she scoffed at those backhouse methods, and didn't pay attention to what deployment was made in the second level at that time.

Now, I regret it.

She thought about it, but couldn't think of a reason for it for a while, so she sat down first.

"Don't have a clue?" Yuan Minzhou stared at her, his eyes were extremely black and bright, as if they had been brushed by snow, revealing a sense of coolness.

Facing such a gaze, Xie Fenghua felt like he was soaking in cold water, and his whole body was indescribably refreshing and comfortable. She suddenly forgot to look away, looking at the black and white eyes, and for the first time she noticed that his eyes were so beautiful.

In the silence, she heard Yuan Minzhou seem to shout, "Fenghua ......"

She answered, knocked on her forehead, the scene in front of her became a little blurry, vaguely saw the enlarged face, and another warm breath sprayed to her cheeks, for a moment, she felt that her cheeks were hot, and deep inside her heart was like a fire, burning her soft and weak.

She pounded her head hard, but she couldn't resist the sudden confusion and powerlessness. In the blur, only those eyes sparkled, and she unconsciously moved closer, reaching out to touch it, but was caught by the other hand halfway. The hand was also hot, and she wrung her eyebrows away, only to be caught again. After repeating it several times, the owner of the hand seemed to be ruthless, and pulled her into his arms.

Xie Fenghua subconsciously broke free from this embrace, but her arms were as hard as iron pincers, and after struggling a few times, she was already impatient, and she was about to scold, but her red lips were sealed.

For a moment, my mind went blank.

It is like a person who has been walking in the desert for a long time has finally drawn a source of water, and when they touch, no one is willing to separate, whether it is light or heavy, rapid or slow, and the breath is intertwined.

Xie Fenghua furrowed his brows, faintly feeling that something was wrong, but at the moment, his head was dizzy, but he couldn't think of more details, so he could only stretch out his hand and follow his instinct to explore something.

And Yuan Minzhou's breathing was a little short, and his eyes were as bright as if they were full of stars. With all his might, he picked up the man and swept the things off the table.

At this moment, a ray of light appeared under the clothes, and the two of them didn't seem to notice it, and the two hands touched, and in an instant, pain hit, and blood poured out.

At the same time, a crackling sound sounded, like thunder on the ground, and struck the heads of the two men.

In an instant, consciousness returned, and the charm faded.

Both froze in place.

Xie Fenghua blinked, his eyes were blurred and stained with mist, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and there was an indescribable beauty of weakness. She looked down, only to find that the placket on her chest was half spread and half open, and the soft sword at her waist was exposed.

- It was this soft sword that cut the fingers of both of them and brought them back to their senses.

The red blood dripped on the clothes around her waist, and in an instant, she fainted.

Xie Fenghua's heartbeat was too fast, don't overdo it, she gathered her clothes a little uncomfortably, and said, "You go away first." ”

Yuan Minzhou stood up straight in a daze, and staggered backwards, as if he had lost his soul. He remembered the momentary confusion, as if in a dream, as if he had gone through it in his mind.

He glanced at the figure facing away from him, and his heart ached, and his clothes were slightly disheveled.

After a while, Xie Fenghua finally calmed down, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that the stone door of the secret room had opened at some point, and there was a dim flickering candlelight in front of him. She glanced at the funnel and red candles on the ground, a quick chill in her eyes.

Du Pingfei's methods are still so unacceptable.

In this secret room, this red candle mixed with special spices is set up, which teaches people to fall into confusion. If you are greedy for joy for a while and miss the time when the funnel drips sand, then it is estimated that you will never be able to get out again.

And the switch of the secret room must also be in this red candle.

Thinking of the scene just now, Xie Fenghua's face became hot again, and he didn't look at Yuan Minzhou, and walked forward as he spoke, "Master Hou, let's go!" ”

Yuan Minzhou nodded in a daze, and also walked forward.

Next up is another secret room.

- Still dominated by conspiracy.

It's just that, compared to Du Pingfei's woman's methods, this imperial level from Zhao Pei's hands is not so difficult.

Xie Fenghua watched Zhao Pei set up a game of chess, and played with him a few times, so it was naturally very easy to solve the chess game.

After a short time, the two walked out of the power room.

Before leaving, Xie Fenghua deliberately sprinkled the lamp oil in the Quanwu room on the ground and those combustible things, picked up the torch and lit the fire, and stood outside the Quanwu room to watch the fire burn before leaving with Yuan Minzhou.

Du Pingfei calculated against her and Yuan Minzhou, causing Yuan Minzhou to be injured. And she burned down the Quanwu room, which is also a tribute, which is not excessive.

This place is deep in the mountains, and the two of them have never been there, so they can only walk along the path in the mountains.

Xie Fenghua looked up and suddenly asked, "Can you contact Changying?" ”

"I can't." Yuan Minzhou's eyes flashed slightly, and he said in a low voice, "After the toss just now, all the signal flares have fallen out." However, you can leave a mark along the way, so that if they pass by here, they can find us if they see the mark. ”

Xie Fenghua nodded and helped him walk forward.

Along the way, the two had a tacit understanding not to mention that awkward relationship. After walking for a long time, the two helped each other out of the deep mountain and came to the foot of the mountain.

At this time, it was getting late, and when I looked up, the candles in the rows of farmers' homes were bright, which reminded people of the warmth of the lights of thousands of homes.

The two found a farmer family and moved in temporarily.

The room was neat and clean, and after a simple freshening up, Xie Fenghua brought dinner from the host and handed it to Yuan Minzhou, "After a day's tossing, let's eat something for the time being!" ”

"Hmm." Yuan Minzhou nodded, sat up with her support, picked up chopsticks and ate.

Seeing this, Xie Fenghua pursed his lips, and finally said, "I asked just now, today is August 13." If something happens to Tianjing, he will have to rush back tomorrow morning at the latest. Your situation ......"

"Out of the way." Yuan Minzhou waved his hand and said in a deep voice, "I delayed too much time before, and I'm afraid I won't be able to do what the emperor ordered." However, it can also be seen from this that it is imperative for Yuwang to do it this time. The palace should be prepared, but don't worry too much. ”

Xie Fenghua took a bite of food and said worriedly: "I still don't feel at ease." After all, we can't even figure out the cards in the hand of King Yu......"

Yuan Minzhou said: "These things are the emperor's own worries. Let's think about how to get back. ”

"It would be nice if Changying could find us soon." Xie Fenghua muttered.

Yuan Minzhou glanced at her and opened his mouth, but still didn't say anything.

For a moment, the room fell silent.

The two finished eating silently, and after Xie Fenghua cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, he went to ask the master for some wound medicine.

"Master Hou, let's re-dress your wounds." Xie Fenghua brought a basin of water, spread the gauze medicine and wine on the low table, and stretched out his hand to untie Yuan Minzhou's clothes.

The eyes of the two met inadvertently, and the next moment they moved away with a tacit understanding.

Xie Fenghua lowered his eyebrows, bandaged the medicine with both hands neatly, and did not say a word during the whole process.

It seems that I don't know what to say.

Although the two have been married and have become a well-known husband and wife. But they got along well before, and Xie Fenghua didn't think about breaking this tacit understanding. But since the incident in the Quanwu room, she vaguely felt that something was different.

And she didn't dare to think about the difference.

Yuan Minzhou didn't know her mood at the moment, but he felt that the two were so close that he could feel the warm breath in his chest. The breath was light and warm, like a hand, slowly caressing his whole body. Everywhere you go, it's hard to get hot and dry.

He turned his face away and took a deep breath, trying to get rid of the distractions in his head.

But the more restrained I was, the clearer that memory came back to my mind. He could even perceive the smooth skin of his hands and the soft, sweet flaps of his lips.

For a while, his mouth was a little dry, but his heart was full of guilt.

At the beginning, he asked to marry the person in front of him, just to pull her out of the cage of the Xie family and fulfill that person's wish. And after getting married, he also deliberately kept his distance from him. He always regarded her as a sister, and even thought that if she had a crush in the future, he could find another marriage for her.

But now it seems that he did something wrong?

"That's it!" At this moment, Xie Fenghua finally finished his work, got up and walked out.

Yuan Minzhou closed his eyes and suddenly sighed.

And after Xie Fenghua walked out of the door, he also felt relaxed.

God knows how uncomfortable she was when she faced Yuan Minzhou just now.

Fortunately, I can go back to Tianjing tomorrow!

She had just asked the owner of this house, and learned that this place was located on the outskirts of Tianjing, and it would take half a day to reach Tianjing if she was to ride a horse. According to the usual rules, the palace gate is closed on the night of August 14 in preparation for the Mid-Autumn Festival feast on August 15.

And when will the king of honor start?

Xie Fenghua knocked his head and went back to the house.

In the second half of the night, Yuan Minzhou developed a high fever.

Her stab in the chest, after so long tossing, still caused him a lot of damage.

Xie Fenghua didn't dare to knock on the door of his master's house in the middle of the night, so he could only take a wet towel casually and put a blank on his forehead. Finally survived until dawn, Xie Fenghua finally breathed a sigh of relief, looked at someone who closed his eyes and didn't wake up, shook his head, and walked out the door while stretching his muscles.

But listening to the master's muttering something, Xie Fenghua asked, and was immediately surprised, he didn't expect that King Yu's movements would be so fast, and even the people and horses were mobilized with great fanfare this morning.

When he was anxious about what to do, he found that Changying brought someone to find him, Xie Fenghua was overjoyed, and left Yuan Minzhou to Changying to take care of, and he returned to Tianjing first.

Not to mention anything else, for the safety of Mrs. Yuan, she must also take this trip in advance.

After rushing all the way, Xie Fenghua temporarily rested in a small tea house, munching on steamed buns and drinking tea, when suddenly a team of people came in a hurry, Xie Fenghua glanced at it, and his eyes fell on the man in Xuanyi who was walking in front, motionless.

She looked at it without a trace, then lowered her head and took a sip of tea.

She recognized it!

Several of these people happened to be the ones who led the horse team out of her tracking that day!

But I didn't expect to meet here again!

She didn't want to get out of the way, and was about to get up and go out, but she was stopped by someone shouting, "This lady, please stay." ”
