Chapter 154: Assassination
It's been days. After all the Heart Devouring Gu was removed, Yun Chenhuan felt better.
The poison of Qiancang rain couldn't be delayed for too long, so last night, in the dead of night, Phantom Dust took him out of the secret passage.
There are a lot of things in the secret passage, Yun Chenhuan doesn't know yet, in addition to tea sets and candles, there are also bedding, tables and chairs. It seems that the person who built this secret passage in the first place was very thoughtful.
Yun Chenhuan sat on a chair, and there was an old and simple candlestick on the table with a candle stuck in it. The candle emits a faint light.
Next to the table was a small low stove with an old iron kettle on it. Inside the iron kettle is water.
There is a small water tank in the corner. There is a stream on this floating mountain, and the phantom dust is the water from there.
It's old, but it's really useful.
This secret passage is very long, Yun Chenhuan tried to walk, but turned back before reaching the end. He hadn't healed yet, and he was already feeling a little tired from walking there.
Qian Cangyu said, the sound insulation effect of this secret passage is very good, and the movement under normal circumstances cannot be heard outside.
At this time, the water in the iron kettle boiled and the heat came out.
Yun Chenhuan hurriedly lifted the iron kettle and poured a cup of hot water, and then put the iron kettle on the stove again.
The water in the iron kettle was tumbling again, steaming incessantly. Yun Chenhuan felt that this would be warmer.
Isolated from the world, if you live here, you will definitely be more miserable. However, it is comfortable.
However, Yun Chenhuan didn't want to stay here for too long. Here, time flies too slowly to tell the difference between day and night. After a few days, when his body was better recovered, he walked out of the secret passage.
I don't know what happened to them? Yun Chenhuan was a little worried.
Seven days later.
There were several futons on the floor. Yun Chenhuan spread all the bedding he could find. He lay on it and looked at the darkness in front of him.
It's really boring. Yun Chenhuan stood up and decided to walk inside again.
The secret passage is long. Yun Chenhuan walked here, and he could only hear his own footsteps and echoes. The other side must be leading to the West Palace of the Illusion Sect.
After walking for a while, there is still no end in sight. Yun Chenhuan continued to walk.
I don't know if I've been walking for too long, Yun Chenhuan is a little tired. He simply sat on the ground and rested for a while.
It's no wonder that Phantom Dust went out of the secret passage to buy things, or went to the stream to get water, and didn't meet anyone from the Poison Bone Hall. This must be because Fushan is far away from the Illusion Sect. Because Qiancang Yu was poisoned, the other party must think that they can't run far. So as long as the entrance is hidden, it can't be found for convenience.
Yun Chenhuan rested for a while, stood up again, and continued to walk forward. Finally, he saw the stone steps.
There seemed to be someone talking outside. Yun Chenhuan cautiously went up the steps, for fear of making a slight movement. He pressed his ear to the stone door so that he could hear the sound outside.
On the other side of the stone gate is the study of Qiancang rain. His study was large, with shelves on the walls except for the door, filled with all kinds of books.
Poison Jiu stood in the center of the study, his face calm.
Tianyan looked at the room full of books and sneered: "This Qiancang rain actually has so many books. ”
After speaking, Tian Yan walked to the desk, picked up a book and flipped through it.
"Qiancang rain, he has always liked to collect books. However, there are very few martial arts cheats. Poison Jiu said.
Tianzhu threw away the books in his hand: "They are all books from the Central Plains." Qiancangyu, this guy won't escape to the Central Plains, right? ”
"Hall Master, the thousand cangs of rain are highly poisonous, and they shouldn't run too far. Perhaps, he is dead. ”
Hearing Poison Jiu say this, a smug smile appeared on Tianzhuan's face: "The poison I gave him is the poison of poison." I don't have an antidote, there's no one in this world. He could only wait for death. ”
Seeing a painting on the desk, he opened it casually. It is painted with a Central Plains woman with a beautiful face and a slender figure.
"Poison Jiu, who is this person?" The Heavenly Remnant turned the painting to Poison Jiu.
Poison Jiu looked at it and shook his head: "I've never seen it." ”
The Celestial Remnant threw the painting on the table.
"How's the prince doing?"
"It's too slow." Poison Jiu said.
Tianyan knew that Poison Jiu was dissatisfied, so he smiled: "Don't worry. Although I don't think Shizi is a smart person. However, revenge, especially the deep hatred of the sea of blood, cannot be rushed. ”
"Hall Master, what if the prince's revenge is avenged and he goes back on his word? Now Yun Chenhuan is nowhere to be found, and he doesn't know whether he is alive or dead. Poison Jiu was a little worried.
When Yun Chenhuan heard his name, he couldn't help but chuckle.
"After planting so many Heart Devouring Gu, he should be dead. Perhaps, Qiancang rain has buried him. Shizi's trick is really amazing. How could he have expected that Qiancang Yu would definitely save Yun Chenhuan? "Heaven is broken.
Poison Jiu hurriedly said: "I also think that Qiancang rain will save Yun Chenhuan." ”
"It seems that Qiancang Yu is really a good person. Pulling out the Heart Devouring Gu hurt my internal strength too much, so Qian Cangyu didn't dodge my secret weapon. Now I've taken down the Illusion Cult. After that, it's up to the world. He sat down in his chair.
"Then I'll go back to the capital." Poison Jiu said.
"You have been by Qiancangyu's side for so many years, and you have worked hard. Right now, I have to do things for the son. You have to be careful, you have to guard against Situ Jing. Tian Yan said.
Poison Jiu nodded, turned around and walked out.
There was only one person left in the study. He leaned back in his chair and looked up at the ceiling.
"Qiancang rain, you also have today!"
Yun Chenhuan clearly heard the conversation between them. What is the origin of Situ Jing? Who is the son?
Yun Chenhuan listened for a while, and there was no movement. He cautiously descended the steps.
The Illusion Sect was the number one sect in the Western Regions, and it was wiped out so quickly. It is possible to do this with a long line to catch a big fish. Qian Cangyu was betrayed by someone he trusted. I just heard one of them call the other the hall master, presumably it was the Heavenly Remnant.
Yun Chenhuan was angry in his heart, but he was helpless.
After standing for a while, Yun Chenhuan walked back. Along the way, he always recalled in his mind the words he had just heard, and the haggard appearance of Qiancang Yu.
All the way in the dark, Yun Chenhuan thought a lot. He felt like he couldn't afford to waste any more time here. It's been a few days since I left the capital.
Seeing that the spring flowers were about to bloom, Yun Chenhuan felt that he should return to the capital as soon as possible. What's more, he's going to find Chi Cheng. He wondered what happened to Qiancang Yu.
After walking for a long time, I finally arrived. The exit of the secret passage is close at hand. Yun Chenhuan walked to the door and pushed the door open.
The light outside was very dazzling, and Yun Chenhuan subconsciously covered his eyes. A gust of wind blew in with a cool feeling. He couldn't help but shudder.
Yun Chenhuan slowly opened his eyes. He felt that he hadn't seen the sun in a long, long time.
Go out and the sun shines on you. Yun Chenhuan felt the warmth that he had not felt for a long time.
The location of this exit is indeed very hidden, and there are trees to block it, so it is difficult to see.
Yun Chenhuan felt very tired after walking for so long. He walked a few steps and found a stone to sit down.

"Still haven't moved?" Situ Jing asked.
"The prince said it's going to be soon." Ghostphorn replied.
Situ Jing frowned, a little impatient: "What did you say about Poison Jiu?" ”
"After poisoning the eldest princess for a long time, he returned to the Western Regions. Although his speed is no less than that of the Shenxing Taibao back then, it will take time to go back and forth. ”
Situ Jing smiled coldly: "Wait." I don't want to move these days. ”
Hearing Situ Jing say this, the ghost thorn didn't say anything more.
However, when Situ Jing said this, he didn't expect that something would happen in the palace soon.
At this time, Zhengyang Palace.
The emperor was looking through the confession.
Yun Chuhan, Yun Moxuan, and Hao Yu stood quietly below.
The emperor sneered and said, "The queen thinks I'm confused. What the second child said and did that day, when I was not there! ”
The emperor was very angry and threw the confession on the ground, which happened to fall at Yun Chuhan's feet.
Yun Chuhan bent down and picked up the confession: "Father, the queen mother bit to death, she single-handedly planned the rebellion, and there will be no new progress in the retrial." ”
The emperor raised his head and asked, "Still don't say it?" ”
Yun Chuhan shook his head: "Brother Huang, he never spoke. ”
The emperor sighed, a sad expression on his face.
Yun Chuhan knew that the emperor was uncomfortable, so he didn't say anything, just walked over and put the confession on the table.
"Well, go down. Third child, go see your mother. The emperor glanced at Yun Chuhan and Yun Moxuan.
"Yes, the retainers are retired." Yun Chuhan and Yun Moxuan saluted and wanted to go out.
At this time, Hao Yu was motionless.
"Hao Yu." Yun Chuhan shouted.
Hao Yu didn't seem to hear it, and stood motionless.
The emperor raised his head and saw Hao Yu's eyes glazed, looking at him in a daze.
"Haoyu?" The emperor shouted to her, and Hao Yu remained motionless.
Yun Chuhan felt that something was wrong with Hao Yu, so he walked over.
Suddenly, Hao Yu took out a dagger from his bosom and walked towards the emperor's assassin.
"Your Majesty, be careful! Escort! Xue Gonggong exclaimed.
Hao Yu's speed is very fast. Yun Chuhan didn't have time to think about it, so he could only use his body to protect the emperor.
Hao Yu's dagger stabbed into Yun Chuhan's back.
"Third brother!" Yun Moxuan exclaimed.
The imperial guards heard Gonggong Xue's call and hurriedly ran in.
Hao Yu let go of his hand and fell to the ground. She closed her eyes and fainted.
Yun Chuhan pulled out the dagger on his back with all his might. He turned around and spat out a mouthful of blood, closed his eyes and fell to the ground.
"Father! Third brother! Yun Moxuan saw this kind of scene for the first time, and he was a little flustered.
The emperor looked at Hao Yu lying on the ground in surprise, stunned, and couldn't believe what he had just seen.
"Imperial Doctor, pass on Imperial Doctor!" Xue Gonggong shouted anxiously.
"The third! Third! Take a look at the third child! Only then did the emperor react.
Yun Moxuan hurriedly ran over and touched Yun Chuhan's neck: "The third brother is still alive, let the imperial doctor come over quickly!" ”
Yun Moxuan saw that Yun Chuhan's back wound was still bleeding, so he hurriedly tore off his shirt to cover his wound.
