Eighty-two, exploration

Zhuo Xi was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat, someone suddenly broke into the room in the middle of the night, and now he was completely imprisoned, how could he not be frightened, could he only be at the mercy of others now?

Feeling the violent shaking of Zhuo Xi's body, the black shadow approached Zhuo Xi's ear and said, "Xi'er, don't be afraid, it's me!" ”

A familiar voice, if you perceive it carefully, it is indeed very familiar, it is Lanyang! It was actually Lan Yang who broke in in the middle of the night!

Lan Yang watched Zhuo Xi slowly calm down, and then let go of the hand covering her mouth.

"Lanyang...... Brother, why are you here? Zhuo Xi gasped in horror and said.

"Xi'er, I came to you for help because I was too hasty and didn't say hello to you in advance, I'm sorry, please don't blame me!" Lan Yang said apologetically.

Under the moonlight, Lan Yang was dressed in a night suit, with his hair tied in a high bun, his black clothes tied at the waist, and his clothes and trousers with tight sleeves.

"Want my help? What is so urgent? Zhuo Xi was annoyed, he really shouldn't have opened the window to see any birds! This Lan Yang broke into her bedroom in the middle of the night, what would others say about her if it got out? How will she gain a foothold in Fushan Courtyard in the future?

Zhuo Xi stretched out his hand to light the lamp but was stopped by Lan Yang, "Xi'er, if you have a light here, it will be easy to attract the attention of others!" ”

Feeling Zhuo Xi's crampedness, Lan Yang hurriedly explained.

It turned out that Lan Yang quickly found the passage to enter according to the picture drawn by Zhuo Xi, and he sneaked in at night. He found that there was a lot of space inside, and it was extended in all directions, and it was like an underground palace for a while. Later, he found a secret room where he kept many scrolls and books, as well as several topographical maps. He really wanted to take those pictures away, but he was afraid of startling the snake, so he retreated, thinking that Zhuo Xi had said that she could quickly memorize topographic maps, so he came to her for help.

"I observed outside for a while, and found that you actually fell asleep at the table, I wanted to come in directly, but I was afraid of disturbing you, so I learned a few birdsong to wake you up, but I didn't expect to scare you, I'm really sorry!" Lan Yang smiled at her with some pity.

Facing Lan Yang, who had changed his outfit, Zhuo Xi felt very unfamiliar, feeling that what he saw on weekdays was only one side of him, and he really didn't know how much else he had that she didn't know, and felt that he was so far away from him.

But Lan Yang's shallow smile made her find a familiar feeling again. Between the familiar and the unfamiliar, Zhuo Xi was a little confused, as far as her own heart was concerned, Lan Yang would definitely be willing to help when she asked her to recall the picture. But at the same time, she didn't feel right, after all, sneaking around, always felt like a thief!

Lan Yang seemed to see through her thoughts, after all, with her simple temperament, she must have some scruples about such a practice, so she simply told her more, hoping to believe that she would definitely be able to make the right choice with her intelligence and kindness.

"The topographic maps I asked you to help me see are actually border maps of various countries, as well as some layout maps of garrisons." Lan Yang Zhengse said.

"Border map?" Zhuo Xi was taken aback, although she didn't know much about those military affairs, but she still knew the border map, it was the deployment of troops along the border cities of a country, which was absolutely secret! There will be key defenses, feeding routes, etc., of course, there are also their own weaknesses, if the border map leaks out, it will undoubtedly show their weaknesses and disadvantages, don't you just wait for others to fight?

"Yes, and it's a map of the troops of several countries! Xi'er, do you know that if the border map of one country falls into the hands of other countries, it will soon lead to a war, and the border maps of several countries will be leaked out at the same time, then the world will be in chaos, and then the lives will be ruined, I don't know how many people will fall into dire straits again! Lan Yang looked at Zhuo Xi with a solemn expression and said.

"The world is in chaos..."Zhuo Xi repeated these words heavily, thinking about the declining family situation in recent years, so that she had to sell herself to save her mother, thinking about Li Fengchao being forced to fall into the grass, thinking about the people in the grass ridge, thinking about the women here, isn't it all because of this terrible war? Will the war continue? Will there be people who will be displaced again, living and dying? No, don't war! Can't let it happen!

"Is there anything my brother can do to change this?" Zhuo Xi looked at Lan Yang painfully and asked, if there was really such an opportunity, she was willing to give it a try.

Lan Yang nodded and said, "Yes, now while these border maps have not yet been revealed, we can still change them." Xi'er, I need you to help me draw out the real border defense map, and then I will make some fake border maps based on this and let it circulate, so as to confuse the public, so that those who have a heart will not dare to act blindly, and then I can also remind the countries to redeploy, maybe I can reduce the occurrence of some wars. ”

Zhuo Xi looked at Lan Yang with great admiration, thinking that she could help Lan Yang stop some wars, and there was a trace of inexplicable excitement in her heart, but she thought about it again, and couldn't help but have some doubts and worries, so she asked, "Then what does the brother plan to do with those real border defense maps?" ”

"This, Xi'er, don't worry, I will definitely deal with it. If fake border maps circulate, then countries will definitely take action to redeploy, and then these real border maps will be useless. ”

Looking at Lan Yang's confidence and honesty, Zhuo Xi nodded resolutely and said to Lan Yang: "If you can really stop these wars, Xi'er is willing to help my brother!" ”

"That's good! Without further ado, I'll take you now! Lan Yang said happily, he knew that Zhuo Xi not only understood righteousness, but also had great courage and courage, if she was a man, it would be amazing!

Zhuo Xi originally thought that Lan Yang would take her over on foot, but she didn't expect Lan Yang to let her face him and let her wrap her arms around him. Zhuo Xi didn't dare to exert himself, he just wrapped it gently, Lan Yang didn't say anything, just hugged her tightly with his arm and said, "Hold on to me!" Then he jumped into the distance.

Zhuo Xi felt that his feet left the ground all of a sudden, and his heart was suddenly startled, and his arms were tightly wrapped around Lan Yang, listening to the whirring wind in his ears, he was so frightened that he didn't dare to open his eyes, so he could only bury his head in Lan Yang's arms.

Lan Yang, who was exercising, felt that Zhuo Xi attached the gravity of his whole body to him, and couldn't help but smile secretly in his heart: The little girl is not shy now? Then I'll take you to fly a little longer! He enjoyed the feeling of being relied on by Zhuo Xi very much, so he increased the strength of his arm, and after adjusting his breathing, his luck was higher and farther than the jump just now.

Zhuo Xi felt that she was being carried by Lan Yang to jump high and low for a while, and she didn't dare to open her eyes, she could only listen to the whirring wind in her ears, Lan Yang's deep breathing, and his powerful heartbeat. After a long while, she still clung to Lan Yang, and didn't dare to open her eyes until she heard him say "It's here".

Under the light of the moon, Zhuo Xi saw that his position was an undulating slope, surrounded by boulders and trees, and looking ahead, it seemed to be a black and oppressive building complex below.

"That's Rainbow Spring, this is halfway up the mountain behind Rainbow Spring, and the entrance here is more secluded and safer. Xi'er, can you go by yourself now? Lan Yang lowered his head almost as if whispering, and said to Zhuo Xi, who was still trembling in his arms.

Zhuo Xi realized that his arms were still holding Lan Yang tightly, and he immediately blushed and spread his hands, and said embarrassedly: "I...... I'm fine, I can go......."

"It's okay, if you can't leave, my brother can carry you!" Lan Yang's mischievous Chong Zhuoxi smiled.

"No, no, I can really go!" Zhuo Xi hurriedly waved his hand and ran to the side without looking at the road.

Lan Yang grabbed her and said, "Over here, don't make a mistake!" ”

A boulder with three trees growing in front of it is the entrance to the secret passage, and Lan Yang pulled Zhuo Xi and quietly walked in from here. It was pitch black inside, and he could feel that it was very damp, Lan Yang listened carefully to the surroundings, then turned on the fire fold, and walked forward with Zhuo Xi in the faint light.

The road was tortuous, with many forks in the middle, and Lan Yang told Zhuo Xi that they were now under the Rainbow Springs Courtyard. Walking to a stone door, Lan Yang stopped, stretched out his hand and twisted the candlestick on the wall, and the stone door quietly opened to the side.

Lan Yang pulled Zhuo Xi and told her: "This is a newly built one, and I haven't had time to install the hidden weapon yet, otherwise it wouldn't be so easy to get in." Be careful, though! ”

After entering the secret room, the stone door automatically closed, Lanyang lit the light, and Zhuo Xi saw the layout inside, this is like a study, the furnishings are also very simple, there are a few large boxes against the wall, and in the middle is a huge table, on which can be stacked with a lot of scrolls and books.

Lan Yang pointed to these books and said: "These books and letters are all about the news of the situation of the nations, this is the Lu country, that is the Yan country, as well as the Zhongshan country, the Song country, and the Qi country....... However, it was evident that it had just moved in, and the books had not yet had time to be stored, so they were spread out on the table in separate piles. ”

"The nations? What is the Condensation Hall collecting these for? Zhuo Xi was very surprised, Ninglutang, an institution specializing in abduction, has also been prosperous in the same industry in recent years, why is he concerned about the countries again?

"It is estimated that Ke Weilong is reselling the news of various countries to make a profit, or if he has other ideas. The women who went out of him were all over the surrounding countries, and there were his subordinates in each country, and in some places there were even branch halls, and he was easy to find out what news. Lan Yang said with a frown.

Zhuo Xi had a faint bad feeling in his heart, the banner master of the Condensation Hall probed the news of various countries, and then sold the news of various countries to other countries, which would inevitably intensify the disputes of various countries! Thinking of this, Zhuo Xi gasped, if this is the case, then it is very likely that the war between countries will be provoked from here, Zhuo Xi couldn't help but clench his fists.

"Xi'er" Lan Yang called Zhuo Xi to his side, he took a few scrolls and put them in a free place, and slowly opened one scroll, sure enough, it was a border map! The mountains and rivers above, the ditches and battlements, the division of troops, the grain storage place, and even the width and depth of the moat are clearly recorded.

"This is the border map of the Song Kingdom, and this is the Zhongshan Kingdom, and there are ..... Can you memorize them all at once? Lan Yang looked at Zhuo Xi expectantly.

Zhuo Xi nodded lightly and said, "I'll try." Then he stared at the pictures with all his attention.

The hills and cities outlined in the lines seemed to come to life in her eyes, and every sign on the map became real objects, the open gates, the drawbridges that were lowered with the morning bells and dusk drums, the wide moats, and the flags fluttering in the barracks at the foot of the mountains...... Looking at these border maps is like wandering away yourself.

Seeing Zhuo Xi so concentrated, Lan Yang didn't bother her, walked to the table to flip through other books, and when he saw something, he couldn't help but be surprised, and the green tendons on his forehead were obviously angry.

Zhuo Xi closed his eyes and went through these border maps in his heart again, and only opened his eyes when he felt that he had been able to write them down accurately, but he saw Lan Yangzheng staring at a book with an angry expression.

"Brother, what's wrong?" Zhuo Xi asked a little strangely, what made Lan Yang so angry?

"Xi'er, come and see." Lan Yang pointed to the book and asked Zhuo Xi to read it together.

I saw that some dates and addresses were recorded on it, looking at Zhuo Xi's confused expression, Lan Yang said indignantly: "This is my travel record from last year to the present, you see, this is the date of travel, this is the destination, this is the date of return, including my trip a few days ago, he recorded it!" ”

"What do you do with these records? Don't...... Someone is spying on Brother Lanyang? Zhuo Xi was even more puzzled.

"Possibly!" Lan Yang said with deep eyes: "Mr. Hongan and I originally came here to avoid the eyes and ears of some people, but now we are under the surveillance of others all day long and we don't know it, it's really terrifying!" ”

Thinking that in order to take refuge, the second brother recommended Ke Weilong to him, originally thinking that with the relationship between the second brother, the person recommended should be credible, but he didn't expect that his every move was under the noses of others, but why did this Ke Weilong spy on himself? Who did he want to show when he recorded his whereabouts? Or is he also taking this as a message and preparing to sell it to the outside world?
