Chapter Ninety-One: The Blood of the Virgin
"This is already the foot of Tianchi, so don't hide it." Xiu Yi, who hadn't opened his mouth much all the way, finally challenged Yan Qiyang here, "Ever since we stepped on the snowy mountain, there have been people following us from afar, doesn't the prince plan to explain?" ”
"Your Highness has already sent someone to investigate, so you must know it in your heart, so why bother to ask." Strictly abandon the yang road.
"Aren't the juniors afraid that the people behind will not be able to enter the door of Tianchi, so that the prince will fall short?" Xiu Yi Dao.
"There is His Royal Highness Lao's concern." Yan Qiyang nodded and smiled, then turned sideways and said to Jianchen, "Jianchen, tell the one behind to follow." ”
The swordsman said "yes", took out a flare from the package, and put it in the air.
Although the Wild Wolf Valley is at the foot of Tianchi Peak, it still takes half a day to really travel from Wild Wolf Valley to Tianchi Peak.
The people behind caught up when the group arrived in front of the first gate of Tianchi. There are a total of eight of them, with vigorous skills, all of them are masters of one hundred, carrying two people on their shoulders, wrapped tightly with quilts, leaving only their mouths and noses outside.
Wrapped in the quilt are the Yi Wang couple
Fang Jinyue's face did not change, as if she had known about this for a long time.
The first gate of Tianchi is hidden in the mountain, integrated with the mountain, extremely difficult to find, after Feng Sheng determined the range according to the map, everyone cleared all the snow in the range, and moved a boulder together, only then will they find an unusual place.
This mountain is different from other places, and there is a very inconspicuous trace around it, and everyone has searched the vicinity but has not found the keyhole mentioned in the fan riddle.
After searching for a long time and finding nothing, when they saw that it was getting dark, they set up a tent here and lit a bonfire.
Liu Wuxian asked Xiu Yi to fold the fan, and studied carefully around the bonfire, looking for clues that had been missed.
Fang Jinyue picked a thicker dry branch from the bonfire as a torch, and came to the door again to look for clues.
"Is there any mention of it in the ancestor's handbook?" Feng Sheng was chewing hard dry food by the campfire, his eyes constantly fluttering back and forth at Fang Jinyue's place.
"I only said the key to the first door, but I didn't say where the keyhole was." Yan Qiyang shook his head and said.
"According to the puzzle on the fan, this keyhole should be very conspicuous, even if it has been more than so many years, it should leave traces." Liu Wuxian said firmly, he changed the angle of the fan, stared at it for a moment, and then asked, "Lord Wang, what is the key to this first door?" ”
"It's virgin blood." Yan Qiyang said, "The method mentioned in the handbook is to bathe with the blood of the virgin, so this keyhole is likely to be a vessel-shaped stone or ......."
"Strings! Sword! Fang Jinyue held the torch and beckoned to Liu Wuxian and motioned for him to throw the saber over.
"But what did you find?" Liu Wuxian put away the folding fan and came to the mountain with the white jade sword.
Fang Jinyue took the sword, stuffed the torch in his hand into Liu Wuxian's hand, and then took a step back, and used the internal force to carve on the faint trace with the white jade sword, and with the trend of the tip of the sword, a lot of dust and sand particles slipped down on the trace, and the trace was also a little deeper.
Fang Jinyue carved the trace over and over again, until a crack broke out in the stone wall below the trace, he pushed Liu Wuxian back, inserted the tip of the sword into the gap, condensed the internal force on the tip of the sword, and charged the strength to peel off the stone wall on the mountain.
The mountain behind the stone wall revealed a different material and color from the appearance, Fang Jinyue peeled off the stone wall one by one, and the first gate of Tianchi gradually showed its true appearance.
This door is less than one person high, all made of metal materials, simple and simple, the surface is engraved with simple pictures and texts, which is consistent with the pattern on the "Phoenix" folding fan, there is a suspension above the door, Fang Jinyue asked the lime for a crescent moon, and carefully removed the stones in the overhang.
"This suspension is probably the keyhole referred to in the fan, and the blood of the virgin needs to be bathed from here." Fang Jinyue said.
Lime stroked the pattern on the door, and found that the source of the pattern all over the door was the overhang above the door, "If you want to open this door, I'm afraid you need blood to flow all over these patterns." This...... If this is ...... with the blood of one man"
Jing Chuchu's eyelids jumped inexplicably, and she seemed to understand why the regent and Feng Sheng looked at her with such chilling eyes that day......
"Only one man's blood can be used, and it must be fresh." Feng Sheng pulled up Jing Chuchu by the bonfire and walked towards the gate of Tianchi, "Among us people, she is the only virgin, and she is the key to this gate." ”
When Xiu Yi heard this, his body suddenly stiffened, and the joints on his hands that were clenched into fists rattled, almost crushing the handle of the folding fan in his hand.
She was after all, and she didn't want to wait for him.
"No, you can't!" Qiu Xiyang snatched back Jing Chuchu from Feng Sheng's hand and said coldly.
"Why not?" Jing Chuchu didn't seem to realize her crisis, she looked at Qiu Xiyang with a smile on her face, and she couldn't hide the joy in her eyes.
"Are you crazy? Don't want to die? Qiu Xiyang had never felt her smile so glaring.
"Is my life important to you?" Jing Chuchu lowered his eyes under his angry gaze, his face showing anticipation.
"You ......" Qiu Xiyang was so angry with her that she choked, how could this woman be so unconcerned about her life?
"Princess, my subordinates are willing." Qiu Xiyang's reaction made Jing Chuchu feel suddenly frustrated in his heart, is it so difficult to say "important to me"?
"Jing Chuchu!" Qiu Xiyang pulled Jing Chuchu's arm, he was so angry that he didn't know what he was doing, "Don't you think!" ”
"What do you want! I'm the only one here who meets the requirements, I don't die, no one can get in! The force on her arm made Jing Chuchu frown in pain, and she reluctantly pulled her arm, her face gloomy.
"Meets the requirements?" Qiu Xiyang, who was stabbed with the word "death", felt pain in his heart, so he beat her in his arms with the strength of her struggle, and strode towards the tent not far behind him, "Jing Chuchu, you won't meet it soon!" ”
Jing Chuchu was "discolored" in his arms, she hugged his neck nervously, and couldn't react to the little general's intentions for a while.
When Qiu Xiyang threw her into the tent without any pity, Jing Chuchu finally understood the meaning of his sentence "You will not meet it immediately".
"Little General! You...... You...... Do what? Jing Chuchu stopped him from tearing his clothes, and he couldn't even say a word clearly.
Happiness comes too fast...... She couldn't stand it for a while......
"What do you say?" Qiu Xiyang grabbed her wrist with his backhand, his eyes glowing with anger.
"You have to think about ...... What's that, let's go back and do it again......" Jing Chuchu turned his wrist, trying to loosen his shackles, "Now that so many people are watching outside, it's not appropriate to ......"
"......" Qiu Xiyang increased the strength of his hand, and the person under him suddenly gasped in pain, "You just want to die like this?" If you answer them, can you still go back? ”
"Little General, do you care about your sister?" Jing Chuchu wrapped his other hand around Qiu Xiyang's neck, and a smile slowly crept up on his face.
"You ......" No matter what the situation, he can always choke on her angry words.
"Okay, my sister knows what you want." The hand holding Qiu Xiyang's neck climbed up to his ear, gently rubbed his earlobe, Jing Chuchu raised his body and wiped it on his lips, "That little bit of blood can't kill my sister." ”
Qiu Xiyang's body stiffened, and before he came back to his senses, Jing Chuchu had already ended this dragonfly kiss.
Soft and glutinous, this faint kiss unconsciously itched his heart, and he wanted to follow the traces to kiss back, but reason made him dispel this thought.
Jing Chuchu's words could not dispel his doubts, he tore off the arm around his neck, and put his other hand in a place to confine, "Then the 'death' you just said ......"
"It's freezing this day, and it's not easy to heal if you're injured, so if someone is willing to take care of it, it's naturally fine." Jing Chuchu said with a sly smile.
Everyone outside the tent stared at the tent for a long time and didn't come back to their senses, Lime pulled Qiu Chulin's sleeve, and asked very worriedly, "You really don't need to stop it?" ”
"Can you stop it?" The joy on Qiu Chulin's face was exposed, and the stupid brother of his family finally fell in love.
After all, so many people are watching, Chu Chu she ...... "Lime is embarrassed."
"It's not good for others to interfere in this matter between men and women, so you better take care of your own husband." Qiu Chulin grabbed her waist, and struggled to find her soft flesh for a long time.
Just when Lime was about to say something, Jing Chuchu and Qiu Xiyang had already walked out of their tents one after the other, their clothes were neat, their faces were impermanent, and nothing seemed to have happened.
"Princess, let's get started." Jing Chuchu took out the dagger hidden in his boots, and after glancing back at Qiu Xiyang, he cut his wrist without hesitation.
Blood poured out from the knife, Jing Chuchu raised his wrist to the overhang, and a moment later, the rapid loss of blood from his body brought palpitations and cold.
Qiu Xiyang stood behind Jing Chuchu and watched the blood flow through the overhang, slowly flowing between the patterns.
The blood looked particularly strange under the light of the fire, and he palpitated and breathless.
Jing Chuchu's figure shook for a moment, she withdrew her left arm, the wound on her wrist had begun to condense, she raised her knee and drew the dagger again, and slashed again on top of the original wound.
"Chu Chu!" Qiu Xiyang stepped forward to hold her shoulder, frowning between his eyebrows.
"Little general, you can hug me, if you fall, only you ask!" Jing Chuchu's lips were cyanotic and her mind was dizzy, and she couldn't stand on her feet when she was dangling, so she simply leaned completely into Qiu Xiyang's arms, taking advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
The blood flowed to the bottom, and when the first door was opened, Jing Chuchu was almost fainting, and Lime quickly took out the Heart Protector Pill and took it with her, bandaged the wound, and handed her into Qiu Xiyang's arms.
"Deputy General, I can only bother you to take care of her, she has lost too much blood and fallen into a coma, and it is cold here, and she is most prone to accidents." Lime said solemnly to Qiu Xiyang, "There are a few blood-tonifying medicines in the items we brought, and we must take them on time, and there is Deputy General Lao." ”
"Madame, don't worry, your subordinates will take good care of Miss Jing." Qiu Xiyang nodded, remembered all the things that Lime said and needed attention, and repeated it with Lime again, and only after making sure that there was nothing missing, he carried Jing Chuchu back to his account.
