Great Qin State Qinzheng Palace.

After Xiao Luo finished the day's recital, it was already dark, and candles were lit in the Qinzheng Palace.

He looked outside, counting the days, it had been a few days since he left, and there was no news at all.

I was bored in my heart, and I remembered the peace of Meishuang, so I simply put down the main pen and got up and went to the back garden.

Although the candles in the back garden are bright, and the plum frost is used when it is there, the plum frost is not there, and it is still a lot deserted.

When Xiao Luo came in, several maids were stunned, didn't the emperor know that Miss Lin was going out?

"I'll take a look, you guys should get busy."

He waved impatiently to let the maid leave, and stood in front of the bed for a while, and couldn't help but think of the scene of the two people lingering together, and the corners of his lips unconsciously showed a smile.

When I reached for the pillow, I was caught by the corner of paper peeking out from under the pillow.

He lifted the pillow, and it turned out to be a letter.

The envelope read, "The emperor personally opened." ”

She even wrote a letter to herself? Xiao Luo pulled out the letterhead.

"Your Majesty, when you read this letter, I was already on my way to a mission. It's just that the road is dangerous, and the result is unpredictable. Although I am very careful to prepare, the right time and place are indispensable, so it may not be possible to have a good result. ”

Seeing this, Xiao Luo's heart sank, is this woman writing a letter?

He took a breath and continued reading, "I didn't live in this era, but since I accidentally became Miss Qianjin, the concubine of Mei Xiangfu, and had the honor to meet you, I didn't expect that this day would be bumpy, and I was worried about whether I could see tomorrow's sun before going to bed every night." It turns out that the one qiē is all because I am related to this shocking secret.

To be honest, I do have an impression of that place, but only an impression, and I don't know how I got it, I can only suspect that I was there at some point. But how do I get there? Am I going alone? If I've been there, others haven't set foot on it. So this profound question makes me very entangled, but what makes me even more entangled is whether this batch of treasures will be stored in zài or not. If I've been there, I've seen it, and if I've seen it, I've had an impression, but I've never had an impression.

Well, Your Majesty, practice is the only criterion for testing truth. But if there is any, I'll go and see. If I can't return smoothly, please send another letter to Lin Tian'er. Meishuang thank you. Long life without borders. ”

Xiao Luo frowned, pondering Meishuang's letter, as if guessing a riddle. Although Meishuang can't write this letter casually, what does she mean exactly?

Is she wondering if there is no such treasure at all? Or was the treasure removed long ago?

He returned to the Qinzheng Palace with Meishuang's letter, and was reading it carefully, when he suddenly heard Gonggong Li's panicked voice, "Your Majesty, it's not good." ”

Interrupted for no reason, he raised his eyes in displeasure, and his deep eyes swept over Gonggong Li, who was full of panic, "Why are you so panicked?" ”

Gonggong Li raised his sleeve and wiped the sweat on his head, and said with a bitter face, "Your Majesty, it's not good, the six hundred miles of urgent letter said that the people who went up the mountain have lost contact."

This is no small surprise.

"What?!" Xiao Luo took the case, and couldn't hide the shock in his eyes, "When did this happen?" ”

Gonggong Li rarely saw Xiao Luo so angry, and hurriedly knelt down, "The express report that just came only said that they had been attacked by Xiong Zhen after going up the mountain, and there would be no news after that."

Xiao Luo was stunned and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

He picked up Meishuang's letter, a wry smile appeared on the corner of his lips, and his voice was a little hoarse when he spoke again, "You go down, by the way, don't let the Queen Mother know"

Gonggong Li only promised to go down, and when he saw the emperor's face frustrated, he couldn't bear it, so he hurriedly turned back and said softly, "Your Majesty, it is impossible for several of them to be in danger lightly, if there is any situation, let's wait."

Xiao Luo waved his hand, his tone a little weak, "Go, let them look carefully, live to see people, dead to see corpses." ”

After Gonggong Li went out, Xiao Luo looked at the beautiful little characters, and his hands trembled slightly.

- The dense jungle is becoming more and more difficult to walk, and it is impossible to discern the direction at all, so you can only walk for a while. In addition, there are many uphill roads, and in some places, the humidity is heavier, and the feet are often slippery.

The top of the mountain is steep, no one sets foot on it, so that the trees can grow crazy all year round, there is no order, the so-called deep mountains and old forests are strange, there must be treasures if there is danger.

When a few people walked to an open area, clusters of bright red fruits attracted everyone's attention. And, as far as the eye can see, there is a large stretch of the area.

"Oh my God, ginseng." Several people know the goods.

Several people dug up separately, and when they carefully dug out a few ginsengs, they were all amazed. The rhizome is thick, and the whole appearance resembles a human head, hands, feet and limbs, and it is definitely not an exaggeration to say that it is a thousand-year-old ginseng.

Carefully wrapping the dug ginseng, Kato continued to dig, but heard Meishuang say, "Don't be greedy for good things, these few plants are enough, and they are not in vain." And, in general, there must be something unusual around such a good thing, so we still try to get out of here. ”

Shi Jieyu suddenly heard something behind her, looked back, and was immediately shocked.

In the grass less than a foot away from her, a snake about the thickness of a child's arm stood up more than half a meter tall and watched them quietly.

The snake's body is golden yellow, and the black spots on its body are occasionally terrifying, and the key is that the snake's head is also crowned with a rooster-like crown, which is bright red like blood.

Shi Jieyu froze and lowered her head to the person next to her who was still squatting.

Meishuang fixed her eyes and looked, I'll go, isn't this a cockscomb snake? It's a legendary snake, but there really is!

Seeing that the person in front of him was moving, the snake swam forward a little.

As it swam out of the grass, everyone saw a bunch of small white or yellow snakes crawling out of the ground, ranging in size and size to an inch. It is clear that the big serpent in front is their leader.

The cockscomb snake slowly stood upright while exposing its entire body, and it was actually more than a meter away. What's even more bizarre is that it actually makes a strange sound like a hen.

Even the coachman's brother had never seen such a peculiar snake, and his complexion changed slightly, needless to say, just by the bright color of that body, it was a highly venomous snake.

When they looked at each other like this, Meishuang noticed that the fleshy crown on the top of the snake's head began to slowly change color, and she secretly screamed that it was not good.

"It's going to be powerful, don't move!"

Mei Shuang suddenly blessed her soul, and regardless of whether it was useful or not, she quickly bent down and took off one of her shoes and threw it into the air in the direction of the cockscomb snake that was about to pounce.

Several people looked at each other, what was she going to do?

Who would have thought that the cockscomb snake would be as short as a noodle when the shoe flew into the air and fell. And those little snakes that were also ready to attack at the beginning didn't seem to have the momentum to be aggressive.

A few people's eyes widened, the power of this shoe was too great.

Taking advantage of this, Mei Shuang quickly bent down to pick up the shoes on the ground, and whispered, "Run, don't let it touch your body." ”

A few people suddenly exerted their strength, and the shovel on the ground was gone, and they turned and ran in the opposite direction, and sure enough, they had just run out not far away, and the cockscomb snake came back to its senses in a trance, and began to follow forward like a flood, and the low or sharp old hen's cries came from behind one after another, like a woofer, and sounded terrible.

It was the first time that everyone had seen the snake that would have barked, but now it seems that the snakes here can call, which is really a strange thing in the world.

"Run in circles!" Mei Shuang glanced back, only to see that the cockscomb snake's flesh crown had completely turned purple, and she screamed in a hurry.

"Do you want to go up the tree?"

Mei Shuangshen panted breathlessly, "I can't get on it!" You can only dodge by going around in circles! Snake repellent medicine! Who has! ”

Cong Fei reached into the bag while running, oops! Somehow the bag leaked, and only a handful remained.

"What about ginseng? Throw it over! Meishuang called again.

After hearing this, Cong Yue hurriedly took out the ginseng in his bag, and smashed it at the cockscomb snake that took the lead, and the ginseng accurately smashed into the cockscomb snake's body, and he didn't chase after rolling on the spot.

It tossed and crawled to the ginseng, and wrapped it around it, obsessively coiling around it, completely ignoring the situation of the person in front of it, and the followers also stopped, and surrounded the cockscomb snake in the middle.

Only then did everyone understand that this guy was chasing ginseng.

Now that the danger was temporarily lifted, several people also stopped and went around to a large tree to rest for a while. Meishuang ran on one foot and panted even more, but fortunately there were no thistles in the jungle, so she bent down and put on her shoes.

I only heard Shi Jieyu Qi say, "Miss Lin, they won't chase after you, right?" ”

"No," Mei Shuang shook her head, "this thing is to take care of ginseng, ginseng is in a shady place, it likes yin, and, for a long time, it must have relied on ginseng, and it can't do without the aura of ginseng, so no one is allowed to move." ”

"You seem familiar with this snake? Why did you just throw a boot and actually stop the snake? Kato also asked with a hum.

Mei Shuang slapped the clothes on her body and panted vigorously, "It's not that I'm familiar with it, but I've only seen it once in a while, the cockscomb snake is not only highly venomous, but also flies in the air." If it is in a hurry, it will definitely bounce off from the ground, and then we will be in danger This snake has a habit, that is, when it encounters a person, it will be higher than him, it will be close to completely upright to compare with people, if it is lower than it, the result is only a dead end. ”

Everyone suddenly realized, "No wonder you want to throw a shoe into the air, it turns out that you are much taller than it." Huh"

Listening to Meishuang's explanation, An Riyan's eyes were also full of approval, although he had dealt with poisonous insects all year round, but this was the first time he had seen this poisonous insect, there was no doubt that this woman had something unknown in her head.

A few people only talked, not realizing that the great danger was slowly approaching in all directions
