Chapter 11: The Palace of the Marquis of Little Sui
Ning Jiang smiled: "You just wait here." He ran into the barren forest half a mile away, cleared the weeds, and found a well.
He tied the rope he had with him to a nearby tree, put the other end into the well, and climbed down himself. The well was dry and there was no water.
It was at this time that the tide head of the Qian Chao River rushed down angrily and slapped on the stone bank of Little Parrot Island, and the tide head was divided into two strands, rolling down on both sides, forming a cross tide downstream. Outside the little parrot island, on the river bank, visitors looked at the water columns that rose to the sky like double dragons and intertwined with each other, and exclaimed in unison.
It's just that no one knows that when the tide head of the upstream slapped the little parrot island angrily, in a dry well in the little parrot island, a young man suddenly pushed his hand, and a brick fell into it, revealing a hole, he put his hand into the hole, grabbed an iron ring and pulled it out, and then quickly climbed out of the well.
Running all the way to Xiaomeng's side, Xiaomeng turned around, saw his brother running quickly, and asked suspiciously, "Brother, what are you doing?" ”
Ning Jiang didn't speak, just held the stone ground in front of her, a large stone that was connected to the ground, and twisted it to the left, and in front of them, the earth and rocks suddenly sank down, revealing a large hole. Ning Jiang said: "Let's go, let's go down." Taking his sister's hand, they walked down the stairs of the cave, and soon after they entered, the entrance of the cave closed by itself, and the stone bricks in the well in the distance began to recover......
***
On the river bank outside, on a sloping hillside, there is a small pavilion, at this moment, Gao Suo Zhi County Cao Qiding, is sitting in the pavilion with the other three people, looking at the downstream of the little parrot island, which formed a cross tide in the air because of the collision with each other.
The three of them, one was a tall and burly man, one was a fat man covered with fat, and the other was a coquettish woman.
Seeing the two tides converging together and rolling downstream, Cao Qiding's face was gloomy.
The fat man full of fat shook his fan: "According to our speculation, the secret palace of the Marquis of Xiao Sui is on the Little Parrot Continent nine times out of ten, and it seems that only when the tide of money rushes down, can the secret passage to the inner body be opened, it seems that at least this year is completely missed." ”
The burly man said coldly: "We don't have a complete treasure map at all, even if we go up, it's useless." Hmph, Brother Cao, didn't you say that you would definitely be able to get the little parrot island in your hands this time? ”
Cao Qiding's eyes were annoyed, he originally thought that there was no problem, but he didn't expect that Ning Jiang would be so difficult.
His three companions, the burly man is called Ao Yao, the fat guy is named Zuo Liangpeng, and the coquettish woman is surnamed Yu and her name is Huacan. The four of them originally knew that there was a treasure secret palace hidden inside Little Parrot Continent, but because they didn't know the specific way to enter, they all wanted to take advantage of the contradictions within the Ning family to get the little parrot island in their hands, and then build a lot of construction on the island to investigate the structure of the Treasure Secret Palace, but they didn't expect that because of Ning Jiang's unexpected resistance, they fell short.
Ao Yao snorted coldly: "Do you want me to kill that kid?" "He was originally a martial artist, and if he took the initiative to kill a powerless teenager, it would naturally not be difficult.
"Don't," Cao Qiding said lightly, "Even if we kill him now, we won't be able to get the little parrot continent, but it will arouse suspicion." I spent a lot of money to transfer here to be the magistrate, and I really offended a few local clans, so I was forced to transfer, which will be even more difficult in the future. ”
Yu Huacan said with a smile: "Yes, I missed it this year, but there will be a chance next year, as long as no one knows our true purpose, the Little Sui Hou Palace will fall into our hands sooner or later, so it's better not to startle the snake." And he said, "As for the ...... of Ningji."
Cao Qiding snorted coldly: "I have already sentenced him to exile, but in case of accidents, it is better to let him die on the road as soon as possible." ”
Zuo Liangpeng shook his fan: "I'll do this." He smiled again: "Just rest assured, no one knows the secret of the Little Sui Hou Palace except us, and it will fall into our hands sooner or later." I'll say okay first, it doesn't matter how other things are divided, Sui Houzhu is mine. ”
Ao Yao said in a low voice: "I don't want anything else, I only need those three elixirs." ”
Yu Huacan's eyes lit up: "I want jewelry, I want a lot of jewelry." ”
The corners of Cao Qiding's mouth overflowed with a smile: "It's easy to do things with money, whether it's Sui Houzhu, or the elixir used by martial artists, I'm not interested, I just need money." ”
The four of them glanced at each other, and they all showed a heaving smile, although this time the plan did not succeed, but the Little Sui Marquis Palace would still be theirs sooner or later, and no one could snatch it away.
At the same time, at the bottom of the Little Parrot Island, a girl asked excitedly: "Brother, what kind of place is this?" ”
The young man beside her replied casually: "Little Sui Hou Palace!! ”
"Little Sui Hou Palace?" Little Dream opened her eyes wide.
Ning Jiang said: "More than 400 years ago, this area was the territory of the Marquis of Sui, because the imperial court cut the domain, the Marquis of Sui knew that his life was not guaranteed, so he secretly built this underground palace, hiding a lot of treasures and books he collected, elixir secret books, ready for him to hide when necessary, but unfortunately later a fire burned his whole family clean, and this secret palace did not come in handy. ”
Xiao Meng was surprised: "How do you know about that brother?" ”
Ning Jiang said with a smile: "At that time, Uncle Jitang secretly confessed to me that he and Lord Cao had a secret agreement in private, and after Lord Cao helped him become the patriarch of the Ning clan, he managed to move away from the ancestral tomb and give the little parrot island to Lord Cao. I wanted to know why Lord Cao wanted to seize the little parrot island, secretly investigated, and later found some books left by the Sui Palace, which contained clues to the Little Sui Palace. ”
Of course, this is a lie, Ning Ji didn't dare to tell Cao Qiding and his secret agreement at all, even if he dared to say it, Ning Jiang would definitely not listen, it was forcing Cao Qiding to kill him, Cao Qiding had three helpers around him, one was called Ao Yao, one was called Zuo Liangpeng, and the other was Yu Huacan, all of whom had some skills, a small Sui Hou Palace, there was no need to break the net with them for this kind of thing.
Xiao Sui Hou Palace is a good bait, as long as you make good use of this bait, there is a way to get rid of them, and there is a way to use them.
With my sister, I passed through the secret passage of the mechanism in the palace of the Marquis of Xiao Sui along the way.
This place, he had been here many times in his previous life, and he had lived here for a while, so he was naturally familiar with it at this moment.
The palace of the Marquis of Xiao Sui is divided into four rooms in the southeast, northwest and the central general control room, and the design of the entire secret palace is also ingenious, once it is completely sealed, then only on this day when the tide of money rushes down, can it be through the huge water power, touch the mechanism of the entrance, open the entrance for a while, and then, the entrance will be sealed, and the people who enter from the entrance, if they can't enter the central general control room through the secret passage of the organ along the road, they will starve to death inside.
But as long as he entered the central control room, there was a control map of the entire Xiao Sui Hou Palace, but that control map had long been remembered by Ning Jiang, which road had a mechanism and which point had a secret passage, he was already clear.
