Chapter 569: Success
Mo Yu's sudden change of face made the prince suffer a huge psychological impact, perhaps coupled with the feeling that he was in a desperate situation, he was disheartened, and he didn't say a word for a long time.
Mo Yu's true nature was exposed at the moment, and he said impatiently: "I'll count to three, if you still refuse to speak, I'll scrap one of your hamstrings first." If you don't open your mouth, you will lose your other hamstring. If you still refuse to speak, then I can only kill your daughter. One...... 2. ......"
"I said." When the prince came to his senses, he immediately gave in and said, "The token of the kingdom is really not in my possession, but I know where it is. Although I stole the national token, it was too conspicuous for me to take with me, and I hid it in a secret room in my mansion before I escaped. ”
Mo Yu looked at him coldly: "You lie!" ”
The prince cried, "What is the use of me now that I want that thing?" Is it necessary for me to lie? My father was assassinated by the Assassins, fell unconscious, and died. According to the law, if the father does not appoint an heir, the eldest prince will succeed him. I was confused for a while, and in order to win the throne, I bought off the chamberlain and stole the national token, so that after my father left, I could take out the token and claim that I was the heir designated by my father, and no one would object to it if there was a national token as a witness. But I didn't expect the matter to be revealed, and the chamberlain betrayed me. I wasn't at home when I got the news, so I escaped and died. Let me ask, how can I carry this kind of thing with me if I steal it and don't have to? Naturally, he hid in the secret room at home and waited until the battle for the throne to lock up the victory. ”
Mo Yu was just deceiving him before, listening to him smoothly, it didn't look like a temporary arrangement, plus the head of the guard hadn't been found for so many years, but he believed him for three points. So he asked, "Where is the secret room?" ”
"Of course, it was in my mansion back then, but unfortunately the key has been left during the day......"
While he was talking, Mo Yu suddenly felt a wind blowing behind him, and he knew that it was not good, so he hurriedly lay on the ground, rolled in embarrassment to avoid the attack of the person behind him, and looked at it, it turned out to be the prince's wife who had returned.
At this moment, this woman is holding a broken branch, but she gives people the feeling of holding a sword, and there is a moving heroic spirit exuding from her body, where is there still a little bit of peasant woman's appearance?
Mo Yu patted the dirt on his body, stared at the woman and said, "What the teacher said is really right, you are really the inside line arranged by the chief of the guard to the prince's side." It's just that I don't know if I've slept with him for more than ten years, have I found any useful clues? Maybe my momentary confession is more useful than your more than ten years of lurking. ”
The prince was stunned, he didn't expect his wife to be a traitor, and her martial arts looked quite good, so he couldn't help but ask, "Madam...... You...... Who the hell is it? ”
The wife shook her head: "Husband, I was indeed arranged by my eldest brother to be by your side at the beginning. But after all these years, can't you see what I mean for you? Not only me, but even the eldest brother has long since hoped to find that treasure from you. We just want to live our lives in peace. ”
Mo Yu clapped his hands and said, "I'm not interested in the relationship between you and the little couple, before you find the treasure, Your Royal Highness the prince must follow me." ”
The prince's wife raised her eyebrows and said, "Didn't you already tell you where you were?" ”
Mo Yu said: "The words are what he said, who knows if it's true or not?" Don't worry, I only need treasures, and when I get things, I will guarantee that your family of three will be safe and sound, and you can even be prosperous and rich for a lifetime. ”
The prince's wife said suspiciously: "You have such a big breath? What exactly are you? ”
Mo Yu said: "Che Li, the deputy commander of the Blue Wolf Army of the White Lion Kingdom, this treasure is wanted by His Royal Highness An Guogong, so you should rest assured." ”
The prince's wife shook her head: "The husband is a royal family of the previous dynasty, how can your White Lion Kingdom let him go?" ”
Mo Yu said: "The slaughter of the royal family of the previous dynasty was only because the White Lion Kingdom was small and big, and they were worried about rebellion. Now that the political situation is stable and the people are in their hearts, even if anyone wants to make trouble in the name of the previous dynasty, they will not be able to set off any storms. If you are willing to go back, His Majesty will be able to do justice by treating you kindly. ”
The prince was a little moved, after all, he was born in the royal family, and he had enjoyed wealth and luxury, although he was now accustomed to rural life, but it was still very tempting for him to regain his wealth.
"Husband, don't believe him, have you forgotten that hundreds of members of the royal family were killed? The White Lion Kingdom has a blood feud with us, how can you help them again? ”
Mo Yu sighed, he was most afraid of mentioning this, even if the prince had no feelings for his family for a long time, he still had to bear the world's views, and the pressure was very great. If he had an absolute advantage, of course he wouldn't dare to refuse, but now it doesn't seem to be.
Mo Yu suddenly launched and punched the prince's wife in the heart. This blow was too abrupt, the other party had not fought for a long time, and he was a little careless for a while, and he was hit by a punch and retreated in embarrassment. Mo Yu was unforgiving, and pressed one punch after another, forcing her to retreat again and again, and was punched from time to time.
After all, the branch is a branch, it can barely stab, but it has no blade, and it doesn't hurt a person at all, Mo Yu can completely carry the whip of the branch to attack, but she can't use the branch to resist the attack.
Suddenly, Mo Yu's feet tightened, and it turned out that the prince ran over at some point, and a dog pounced and hugged his thigh.
"Madam, you take Qingqing away." The prince shouted loudly and let Mo Yu punch and kick him. In short, Mo Yu didn't dare to kill him with a dead hand, and he didn't have any scruples.
"Hurry up, you, or we won't be able to leave. Don't worry, I'll be fine. Seeing his wife's hesitation, the prince continued to shout.
The prince's wife gritted her teeth, knowing that she had not exercised for a long time after all, and her martial arts had declined seriously, so it was impossible for Mo Yu to be Mo Yu's opponent, so she turned around and rushed towards the little girl, holding the little girl and running.
Mo Yu struggled a few times, and when he saw that the person was running away, he said, "Enough hugs, right?" ”
The prince let go of Mo Yu in a dejected manner, stretched out his hands and said, "Take me away." ”
Mo Yu took the prince to see Luo Han in the mountains, and then Luo Han left directly, asking Mo Yu to find a hidden place to take care of them.
The white lion king, Luo Han, who rushed back, came to the mansion where the prince had lived before, with a team of guards. The mansion already had a new owner, an official of considerable status. Hearing that An Guogong suddenly came with the guards, the adult who was playing with his little wife was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, and thought that he had something to reveal and was going to be beheaded by the raider, so he hurriedly asked his family to prepare for escape and ran out to meet him.
Luo Han smiled and watched the adult come out, respectfully saluted himself, and asked, "Lord Li, how are you doing?" ”
Lord Li looked at his appearance, not like he had come to raid the house, and his heart was a little peaceful, even if he was looking for trouble, as long as he did not raid the house and destroy the door, it was not unacceptable, and he hurriedly smiled and said: "Thanks to the blessing of the Duke of An, everything is fine." I don't know if An Guogong suddenly brought someone here, why did he have to do it? ”
Luo Han said softly: "Does Lord Li know whose mansion you live in now used to be?" ”
Master Li turned a few thoughts in his mind, but he shook his head: "Xiaguan is also from the Eastern Capital, and he is not familiar with the affairs of the royal capital, so he only knows that the previous master has ...... Already ......"
The previous owner of this mansion was purged by Luo Han in the name of rebelling against the party in the previous chaos in the royal capital, and Lord Li thought that he was reminding him of this. But Luo Han had long forgotten about this stubble, this kind of thing was not worth remembering to him at all, where would he have thought that he had sent someone here to raid his house?
"I heard that more than 20 years ago, there was a prince who lived here, and he had a secret room here. To tell you the truth, I just came to find this secret room, I don't know if Master Li can make it convenient? ”
Lord Li's eyes rolled, he has lived here for a while, and he has never found any secret rooms, where did this An Guogong come from? But he didn't dare to disobey Luo Han. Luo Han can be regarded as power-leaning towards the government and the opposition now, and no one with a little brain dares to offend him, even if he leads someone to break into the mansion, he can only admit it, let alone refuse. At the moment, he said: "The lower official in the secret room didn't find out, maybe the lower official lived for too short a time." Since An Guogong wants to find it, there must be something important, how dare the lower officials stop it? Come in. ”
Luo Han led people in, with a clear goal, and went straight to the backyard.
There is a rockery in the backyard, Luo Han groped in the rockery group for a while, and finally touched a moving stone in a corner that is usually difficult to reach, twisted it, and heard the sound of the mechanism running, and a piece of mountain rock moved back, revealing the mouth of a narrow black hole.
"You are here to stay, and no one is allowed to come in without my orders." After Luo Han ordered the guards around him, he entered the cave by himself. After walking a few steps down, he came to a stone door with a keyhole, and Luo Han took out the key he had obtained from the prince's left package and inserted it into it, twisted it clockwise, and then pushed the stone door to open it.
Blowing a fire fold, Luo Han looked at it. It is a stone chamber of less than eight square meters, with two rows of shelves on the left and right, and the shelves are filled with various mortal treasures. In the middle is a painting hanging on the wall facing the stone door, and below the painting is a wooden table, which looks to be somewhat decayed.
Luo Han walked over and kicked the stone wall under the wooden table, touching a mechanism, and then uncovered the painting on the wall, and a square hole appeared in the wall with a box inside.
The design of this secret room is very ingenious, normal people will be attracted by the belongings on both sides when they enter the eyes, the painting on the wall is made by the prince himself, it is not worth a few dollars but meets the conditions for hanging here, and generally no one will take it. Even if someone uncovers the painting, the cave will not appear, and the only way to do this is to find the mechanism. If you find the mechanism and ignore the painting, even if the cave appears, it will be obscured by the painting.
Luo Han picked up the box and felt a strong breath of life force. When I opened the box, I saw a bead of green light lying quietly in it, like jade and amber.
After such a big effort, I finally found it. Luo Han was overjoyed, turned over his hand and took out the box he got from the palace treasury in the early years, put it into it, and saw that the beads emitted a strong green light, and Luo Han, who was illuminated, suddenly felt indescribably comfortable, as if he had inexhaustible strength.
The bead had been away from the box it had charged for many years, and its original strength had long been very weak, and it was not until it returned to the box that it came back to life. I scanned it with my watch, and this bead is called "Returning Yuan Pearl", which can store the vitality of essence, can dispel illness and nourish the body, and prolong life. For the trialists, opening the second order is actually the process of extracting life force, but the trialist can slowly recover because of his special physique, while if normal people lose their vitality, they will often show premature aging and weakness. However, the effect of this thing is relatively mild, and it can only heal the body and not the wound, and the prince also knows this, so he stole it when his father was seriously stabbed.
Putting away the "Returning Yuan Pearl", Luo Han restored the mechanism, and said loudly: "Come six people, take away the records of the things here and send them to the palace treasury." These are all left over from the royal family of the previous dynasty, and it's time to go back to where they should be. ”
Six guards entered as they were told, registering the treasures on the shelves and packing them. Luo Han was impatient to watch them do things and withdrew. Master Li immediately greeted him and asked, "Xia Guan didn't know that there was such a secret room in his mansion, An Guogong was really powerful, and he was able to find here." The lower officials admired, admired. ”
Luo Han said disapprerovingly: "I have my own channels, you do things well, maybe one day I will bring someone here again and it will not be looking for a secret room." ”
Master Li hurriedly said: "The lower officials must abide by the law and dare not have two hearts." Lord An Guogong, it's not too early, why don't you rest in the Xiaguan Mansion for the time being, have lunch and then leave? ”
Luo Han shook his head: "No need, I have other things." You can entertain the brothers of the Praetorian Guard. ”
After speaking, he ignored Lord Li and left.
Although Luo Han has lived in the Eastern Capital for a long time, he also has a mansion in the royal capital, which is taken care of by special people. After going back, Luo Han opened the subordinates, opened the second-order and third-order potential locks in the room, controlled the strength to carry out some consumption, and then used the "Returning Yuan Bead" to recover and conduct experiments.
Of course, he will not passively accept the green light like the royal family of the Shengke Kingdom, but will directly extract the vitality from the "Returning Yuan Pearl" by using the exercises, and the efficiency is very different. Experiments have found that the recovery of the "Returning Yuan Pearl" is actually very fast, and it only takes a few seconds to a few minutes to drain the life force stored in it at a time, depending on how much life force is inside. But there is also a problem, that is, the box of "returning the yuan bead", that is, the "charger", and the "charging efficiency" dare not compliment. At the beginning, Han Qingwei's inference that this thing could shorten the recovery time by half after opening the second order was true, because the "charging speed" of this box was like that.
The only thing I don't know at the moment is how much recovery this bead can provide him after it is full, if it can meet a large amount of consumption, then Luo Han can store skills for his ring before the battle, and he doesn't have to be as embarrassed as if he fell into the belly of the black dragon this time. At that time, if his ring still had a big move, maybe he could let the black dragon who dared to swallow him "enjoy" a good meal.
