Chapter 70: The Disappearing Mu River

"What's the solution?"

Hearing Liao Xingyun say this, everyone looked sideways and looked at her.

Liao Xingyun sorted out his thoughts a little and said, "We are in a dark now, and all we can see is a small piece in front of us, and we are going around in circles back and forth, which shows that we may have been misled in some way, and the most misleading thing is actually the eyes of people, so we simply blindfold ourselves and walk straight with our feelings, maybe we can find a way out." ”

He Qingping was exquisitely thoughtful, and he understood it at once, and added, "And we were all following Ling Yue just now, but after blindfolding, we will not be guided by the people in front of us, and we will all follow our own feelings, so the possibility of everyone being misled will be reduced." ”

Liao Xingyun nodded and added, "But there is one more thing to be aware of, we are easily separated by such blindfolds, so..."As she spoke, she took out a long rope from her arms and said, "Each of us is connected to a section of the long rope, but don't be tense, so that people will not be disturbed by others, but if anyone goes in the other direction, the rope will be tightened immediately, and it will be noticed immediately." ”

Hearing this, even Ying Lingyue was convinced and sighed, "Miss Liao is really extraordinary. ”

Liao Xingyun smiled slightly and said, "This is also a try, it's better than sitting still." ”

And so, the people did what they said.

These people are all elite people selected by the Qingcang Society, and they already have ideas, and they quickly put them into practice.

He Nuo had never experienced such a feeling, it was dark in front of him, and he was quietly around, walking slowly along the road, as if he could hear the sound of his heartbeat, but his heart was full of apprehension, not knowing what he would encounter in front of him, and not knowing if he could get out of this ink-like viscous darkness.

After a long time, at least He Nuo felt that it had been a long time, Liao Xingyun's voice sounded, with a sense of exhaustion in his voice.

He Nuo's heart sank, and when he heard what she said, "We're coming back again." ”

But then, He Nuo found something even more wrong, he subconsciously pulled the rope tied to his body, found that the back was empty, and when he looked back, Mu Jiangliu who followed was gone!

Ying Lingyue's face changed greatly, and she hurriedly strode to the end of the team and looked at the long rope, and saw that the long rope had been broken, but looking at the broken position, it was very smooth, obviously cut by some sharp thing.

He Qingping leaned over to take a look and said, "He ran away?" ”

Ying Lingyue nodded and said nothing.

He Nuo hesitated in his heart, hesitated for a while, and still asked, "Shizi, there is a sentence that I don't know whether to ask or not?" ”

Ying Lingyue rubbed her forehead and said, "Say it." ”

He Nuo spoke slowly, "Mu Jiangliu started with the sneak attack on Xiaochen, to tell the truth...... Well, I think he's not right. Eighth Prince, there is something I haven't had time to tell you, I thought about it carefully, just now the Four Princes were able to sneak attack me, it was precisely because of Mu Jiangliu's sudden appearance that interfered with our attention, and when we went to chase the Four Princes later, it was Mu Jiangliu who delayed us by making a noise, and now, he was not going to appear, it was the Prince of the World who found him, so he had to appear. I don't know why the prince took him with him? ”

Ying Lingyue didn't want to say it, but when she saw He Nuo ask so directly, "You should know, this Mu Jiangliu is a student of the Right Governor Lu Duchu, and you and I both know the status of the Right Governor in the court." What's more, before entering the Qianran Underground Palace this time, Wen Xihou of our Cangguo made a special trip to bring me a sentence, saying that the Right Governor asked him to bring it to me, and he said that the Right Governor invited him to his house for tea......"

Hearing this, He Nuo's eyes lit up, he knew the status of the right governor Lu Yuchu, his home is not something ordinary people can go to, Lu Yuchu, as the patriarch of the Lu family and the elder brother of Queen Lu, almost never took the initiative to invite others, it is said that he wants to visit his house, and the officials below the third grade have to wait in line for at least a month, but Lu Yuchu has been in the Thirteenth Castle of Beacon Fire, and this kind of visit is not to see him in person, it is actually just to please his family.

So He Nuo thought that Wen Xihou was invited to his house by the right governor, I am afraid it was not as simple as drinking tea, and sure enough, he heard Ying Lingyue continue, "According to Wen Xihou's retelling, the whole process of the right governor was all about some household chores, and it was not until he was about to leave that he said lightly, 'My apprentice Jiangliu is also going to the Qianran Underground Palace, hehe." ’

Having said that, everyone understands, according to the identity of the right governor Lu Duchu, such an understatement is definitely not in vain, it is obviously to let Ying Lingyue take care of Mu Jiangliu in the Qianran Underground Palace.

However, He Nuo remembered that Ying Lingyue, the grandson of the right prime minister, and the student system of the right governor, was obedient just now, and he couldn't help but have a trace of admiration for him in his heart.

At this moment, everyone was trapped in this darkness on the fifth layer of the Qianran Underground Palace, and they couldn't enter, but none of them thought about giving up.

At this time, because of the injury on his foot, Zhao Mingzhao, who had been silent and did not speak, spoke, "Mu Jiangliu was behind me just now, I didn't notice his sudden disappearance at all, and now in retrospect, this time there is only one point different from the previous times, that is, I felt a cold wind blowing behind me in a certain section in the middle, but the speed was very fast, and I didn't care, maybe the problem was there." ”

Hearing this, Liao Xingyun's eyes lit up, "Zhao Gongzi, do you recall, when did you feel that cold wind just now?" ”

Zhao Mingzhao thought about it carefully, "I don't remember a little clearly, but it seems to be about halfway through." ”

Although everyone felt that this clue was a little vague, it seemed that this was their only breakthrough, and they all took the trouble to re-blindfold their eyes, trying to remember the step rate just now, and move forward step by step.

Liao Xingyun's voice resounded in everyone's ears, "Zhao Gongzi, you have figured out the approximate location, so you signal us to stop." ”

However, such memories seem to be very difficult to test, without any reference to time and distance, relying only on the residual feeling of nothingness.

"We're back to square one." Liao Xingyun finally said.

Zhao Mingzhao said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I can't remember clearly..."

He Nuo was about to be comforted, when he heard He Qingping wave his hand and say, "It's okay, I just counted, according to the time just now, we walked a total of six hundred and twenty-eight steps, Zhao Mingzhao just said about half, we walked to the three hundred steps and fourteen steps, stop and take a look." ”

When everyone heard this, their eyes lit up.

Zhao Mingzhao glanced at He Qingping gratefully, and He Qingping just smiled slightly.

The next time he walked very fast, Zhao Mingzhao counted according to the steps just now, maybe because he had expectations in his heart, He Nuo felt that this time he walked extremely fast, and it seemed that it didn't take long to hear Zhao Mingzhao's voice.

"We arrived, I felt it, the location where Mu Jiangliu disappeared just now is near here."
