Chapter 46: Western Zhou 3

The sky was getting dark, and Shen Zhitang said to Zhou Congyi and Shu Liuguang in the palace: "It seems that something big has happened to the Western Zhou Kingdom!" ”

Zhou Congyi immediately said: "They won't send troops to attack us now!" ”

Shen Zhitang said with a smile: "That's not it, I'm afraid, I'm afraid, the disaster of Xilin City and the rebellion of the Western Zhou Dynasty are from the same person's hands" looked up at the darkening sky with his back and said: "Tianyuan Continent, the wind and rain are coming!" ”

On the official road leading to Xisha County, Li Jianqing took the lead, and dozens of people behind him followed him towards the forest hut where Mrs. Fan and the others lived, and slowly disappeared into the dark barren forest

It was already completely dark, and he couldn't see his five fingers, and in the courtyard of a farmhouse, Qi Yi stabbed Zhao Yuan's instep fiercely and asked, "What about the six princes?" ”

Zhao Yuan sneered: "That's what you Eagle Guard is capable of? ”

Qi Yi said angrily: "Although there are no torture instruments here, I can also make you impotent!" ”

Zhao Yuan snorted and said, "As for your Eagle Guard's method of coercing confessions, it's not that I haven't tried it, and I will kill it if I have the ability!" ”

Li Zhilian stretched out his hand and slid it between her belt, only to remember that she didn't bring poison, and after thinking about it, he said softly: "Do you know what is raised behind this village?" ”

Zhao Yuan was speechless for a while

Li Zhilian continued: "Haven't you heard about flying insects attacking villages in the Western Zhou? There is an old man in the village who specializes in raising insects, and the mosquito spreads its wings to be the size of a palm, and when it bites it, its whole body is immediately covered with blisters, and there are white insects crawling in it, and its limbs are paralyzed and unable to move, so I can only watch myself crawling with insects all over my body, and then slowly being eaten away......"

Zhao Yuan's face suddenly turned pale

Li Zhilian continued: "After a while, we will put you outside the door and light the fire, and that thing will be happy ......."

Zhao Yuan was uneasy and took a deep breath: "What do you want to know?" ”

Li Zhilian glanced at Qi Yi and said, "Where is Su Yun?" ”

Zhao Yuandao: "We don't know where he is!" Three days ago, according to the instructions of the eldest prince, I sent a person to pretend to be an eagle guard, and took a black half-cut jade pendant to Xilin City to trick the six princes out, but I didn't expect him to be discovered by him halfway, snatched the half-cut jade pendant and ran away, we searched here for two days and three nights, and we didn't even see a single figure."

Li Zhilian suddenly breathed a sigh of relief: "Have you ever returned to Yizhou City in the past two days?" ”

Zhao Yuandao: "We are changing shifts, and there will be a new batch of people to replace us early tomorrow morning."

Qi Yi asked, "What is your purpose?" ”

Zhao Yuan raised his head and said with a smile: "Find the other half of the jade pendant in the hands of the sixth prince, the eldest prince can be justified when he ascends the throne, and you eagle-eyed can obey him!" ”

Qi Yi looked at Li Zhilian, her eyes were full of murder, and she coughed lightly: "Kill it!" ”

Qi Yi nodded, and with a swing of his sword, blood gushed out from Zhao Yuan's neck, with a relieved smile on his face

Qi Yi asked, "Where else?" ”

Li Zhilian thought carefully about how she and Su Yun came to Nianhe Village to see the old man: "Follow me"

At the same time, Li Jianqing led the guards to gallop on the official road, stopped at the intersection of Nianhe Village and the fork in Xisha County, and said: "General Zhang, you take half of the people forward, I'll go in from here to see."

Zhang Hui said: "Yes~"

The ruined temple at the foot of the mountain, the last time she came to Su Yun, she felt that this place was very strange, there was only one original stone on the altar, that is, there was no god statue or beast statue

Qi Yi said puzzledly: "It's so dilapidated here, you can see it at a glance, and you can't hide people!" ”

Li Zhilian said: "I always feel that this place is not simple. ”

Qi Yi suddenly realized: "You mean there is a secret passage here?" ”

Li Zhilian nodded and said: "It will generally be near this altar" The two groped around the edge of the altar for a while, only to hear a soft sound of "click", a one-person-wide hole appeared under the altar, and there was a faint glimmer of light inside, Li Zhilian and Qi Yi were overjoyed, flashed in, and the hole was slowly closed

Qi Yi lit the candlestick in the cave, and the two were stunned by the scene in front of them, the small cave was full of all kinds of gold, silver and jewelry, and what just shone was a few night pearls.

Li Zhilian caught a glimpse of a few clothes piled up under the corner of the wall, picked them up with a short knife, turned around and smiled: "It's the clothes Su Yun wore on the day he left."

Qi Yi rushed over and took the clothes and carefully identified them: "Are you sure?" ”

Li Zhilian nodded and said, "Hmm~ Is it possible that he changed into the clothes of those people in black and mixed into Yizhou City?" ”

Qi Yi picked up another piece of clothing and said, "Then whose black cloth is this sackcloth?" ”

Li Zhilian glanced at it, felt a little familiar, and felt that the elderly people were all dressed the same: "Maybe this cave owner's!" When Su Yun and I came a few days ago, he also helped us a lot. ”

Qi Yi hurriedly said: "Then I will go back to Yizhou City immediately now, you~"

Li Zhilian shook his head: "I can't go with you"

Qi Yi nodded, looked at the knife in Li Zhilian's hand and said, "Be sure to protect the short knife in your hand!" ”

Li Zhilian watched Qi Yi's back disappear at the entrance of the cave, and suddenly thought that they only had one horse when they came, so how could she go back?

And why did Qi Yi and Su Yun ask her to protect this knife, and what was hidden in the knife? Thinking about a cool breeze blowing behind him

How can there be wind in a confined space? Li Zhilian wanted to call Qi Yi back, looked at the hole that had been closed, his heart was horizontal, he picked up the candlestick and slowly walked towards the direction where the wind was blowing, only to hear a "click", a wall was turned over, and an old man was looking at her with a smile

Li Zhilian was relieved and said in a trembling voice: "Old poisonous worm~ Why are you here?" ”

Nong Qi replied: "I also want to ask you how you found here, this is the old thief's little golden nest"

Li Zhilian raised his head and asked, "Do you know each other?" ”

Nong Qi nodded, shook his head violently and said, "Who knows the old guy who only recognizes money?"

Li Zhilian didn't want to dig deeper into whether they recognized each other, so he looked sideways into the passage and asked, "Where does it lead inside?" ”

Nong Qi turned to the side and said, "It's just a broken house"

The passage is very narrow, and there are permanent lights on both sides. Li Zhilian walked forward quickly, followed by Nong Qi. Everyone turned a few corners in a row, and there was a stone wall in front of them, and Nong Qi pressed the mechanism on the right, and there was a "click~" sound

A dark room appeared, with a bed and a futon in it, which appeared to be inhabited permanently

Li Zhilian looked around, walked to a narrow staircase and asked, "Wouldn't it be the old man's house up there?" ”

Nong Qi said angrily: "What old man, his name is Qian Jin, a Jiangyang thief, he steals from the living and the dead, shameless!" ”

Li Zhilian held back a smile and said, "Then he is much cooler than you raising insects!" As she spoke, she groped for the stone wall, and with a light touch on a slightly raised place, a cold air struck, and the candlelight was blown out, and she closed her eyes, and after getting used to the darkness, she followed the moonlight, and it turned out that the entrance was actually on both sides of this wall of the main hall. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart: It's really a thief

Nong Qi came out behind her and said, "Isn't it a special chicken thief, this wall is so thick, he can still dig a door to come out!" ”

Li Zhilian re-lit the candlestick and asked, "Old poisonous worm~ Do you usually live here?" ”

Nong Qi sneered: "How is it possible! I'm here for you! ”

Li Zhi was surprised and said, "Come to me?" ”

Nong Qi said: "Yes! I went to the government to look for you, and when I heard them say that you were out of the city, I hurried to look for you, and if you die here, then I won't lose a lot!" ”

Li Zhipian was puzzled: "Do you know that there is danger here? Do they know about the teacher? ”

Nong Qi nodded: "I told them"

Li Zhilian hurriedly said: "Old poisonous worm, you are really ......" and walked outside

Nong Qi hurriedly followed: "Where are you going!" ”

"Go back to Xilin City! Where else can I go? ”
