Chapter 004: Trapped in the Underground Palace
Seeing the man approaching step by step, Yin Junbai rushed forward to block between the two, and begged in a lost voice: "The young master's subordinates are merciful!" She is not the Qinglian King, she is just a stand-in for the Qinglian King! β
"If it's really a stand-in, how can you be so protective?" The man sneered, "Fortunately, I went to count the corpses and found that one was missing." Romance content is updated faster than rockets, do you dare not believe it? Jun Bai, you are getting bolder and bolder, and even the person I want to kill dares to hide, it was really a mistake to 'insert' you next to the Qinglian King in the first place. β
Yan Liwu's fingertips trembled, and his fists clenched quietly.
Now the only Yin Junbai she can rely on is the eyeliner arranged by others, and now that she is desperate to confront her, will Yin Junbai still choose to protect her? Will the murderous man on the other side believe that she is not the Qinglian King?
It is better to ask for others than for yourself, and she mustered up the courage to meet the man's cold gaze: "What evidence do you have to prove that I am the King of Qinglian?" Just because he saved me? There is no evidence, and you seem to know very well what I don't know myself. β
The retort made the man a little surprised, but the long sword in his hand did not waver at all: "It doesn't matter if it's not, there are not many more of you in this world, and there are no less of you, just because of being the stand-in of the Qinglian King, there are a hundred reasons to kill." However, I can give you a chance to atone for your sins. β
"What chance?" Yan Liwu blurted out.
The man didn't seem to be in a hurry to answer, and cautiously asked Yin Junbai to step aside before saying slowly: "King Qinglian has been favored for many years and has been bribed by countless high-ranking officials, and it is said that the names of these high-ranking officials have been recorded in a book 'privately' by King Qinglian, and what I want is this list." β
Is this another condition for extinguishing hope after the willow 'flower' is bright? Don't talk about the roster, she hasn't even figured out what her identity is, where can she meet his inexplicable conditions? Yan Liwu had an urge to scold, looked at the cold and shining blade, and finally swallowed it silently.
Yin Junbai knew that Yan Liwu had memory loss at this time, and was worried that she would talk nonsense and 'reveal' her flaws, but Yan Liwu unexpectedly spoke: "I know where the roster is." β
"'Hand it over'." The man held out his hand unceremoniously.
"Do you see me dressed like this, like I'm carrying a roster?" Yan Li glanced at Yin Junbai, turned around and continued to deal with it calmly, "The roster is placed in the secret room of the underground palace, I can take you to get it, and after taking it, the grievances between you and me will be written off, and we will go our separate ways." β
The man pondered for a moment, then nodded, "Okay." β
Yin Junbai, who was watching from the side, gasped, and his sleepy eyes followed Yan Liwu's back - he knew very well that Yan Liwu didn't know where the so-called roster was hidden, so why did she do this? It's understandable to want to use the roster for a different way of life, but when the other party finds out that she can't find the roster, the result will only be more angry revenge, right?
In any case, now I can only choose to follow one step at a time.
Yan Liwu pulled up his shirt in embarrassment and barely covered his body, and the man less than two steps away behind him did not squint, and only regarded the snow-white skin as invisible, but the sword in his hand was very enthusiastic and clung to Yan Li's heart, and he was so worried that every step he took was worried.
Since it was completely "cleaned up", there are only two people in Qinglian Palace, Yan Liwu and Yin Junbai, empty 'swing' and 'swing' are cold and lonely, at this time the sky is dark, Yan Liwu lit a torch to lead the way in front, and went around for a long time without an end. The man was very calm, and there was no urging from beginning to end, but the sword in his hand was not very honest, and it sounded and turned around for a while, and there was more and more posture of poking a 'hole' in the back of Yan Liwu.
"It's almost there, wait for Junbai, you help me push the 'door' together, I can't push it alone." When he walked near one of the entrances to the dungeon, Yan Liwu suddenly said softly.
Yin Junbai's heart moved, and he nodded in response, and an expression of sudden realization quietly appeared in the darkness - the 'doors' of the underground palace are all controlled by the machine, and there is no need to push the 'door' or how, Yan Liwu deliberately said this should be a hint to him, and he will take action when the 'door' is opened.
Sure enough, Yan Liwu walked to the stone 'gate' and slowly turned around: "The roster is in the secret room behind the stone 'gate', can you help with the torch?" β
The man glanced at the stone 'door', took the torch and hesitated for a moment before turning it to Yin Junbai's hand: "You take it, I'll push the 'door'." β
"I'll do it anywayβ"
"Less nonsense." Vigilantly walked to the stone 'door', the man didn't give Yan Liwu and Yin Junbai a chance to contact at all, Yu Guang stared at Yan Liwu beside him, and slowly exerted force with his hand on the stone 'door'.
Even if he was tired to death, he couldn't push it away, so he just died of exhaustion. Yan Li thought gloatingly, quietly reaching out to Yin Junbai with one hand behind his back, and then slowly 'touching' the side of the stone 'door'.
The man seemed to have doubts and 'confusion' about the 'door' that couldn't be pushed open no matter how hard he could, and only then did he understand that he had landed, and turned around suddenly, Yan Liwu quickly pressed the bracket, and almost at the same moment, Yin Junbai rushed up, and pushed the man's chest with a palm.
After the stone 'door' is unlocked, it will flip vertically around the center as the axis, and if the person in front of the 'door' is defenseless, he will inevitably be swept into the other side of the underground palace corridor, and it is with this special 'sex' that he intends to trap the man in the underground palace, but he didn't expect to work hard with Yin Jun to lead him to the 'door', but the result still went wrong.
The man really didn't expect to be pushed to the other side by the stone 'door', but at the moment when the sudden change occurred, he subconsciously grabbed Yan Liwu's wrist and dragged her into the corridor with him!
Everything that happened between the lightning and flint was silent and quiet, and when Yan Liwu reacted, the person had fallen into the dark and dark underground palace corridor, and there seemed to be some softness under him, reaching out to 'touch' and 'touch', warm and warm.
"Be honest with your hands and feet." There was no breath in the darkness.
Yan Li retracted his hand and reluctantly climbed to the side: "You pulled me in, do you blame me?" β
I thought that after drinking the 'medicine' and going to the poison, I would be able to usher in a beautiful new world by going down the mountain and changing my identity, who would want to come out of this murderer halfway, Yan Liwu did not hesitate to be sure, if she really found the roster and 'handed it over' to him, she would still be unable to escape her death.
But...... It's not much better than a dead end now.
The man quickly got up from the ground after adjusting to the darkness, and his voice was even colder than before: "Open the 'door'." β
"I can't open it, I broke the bracket just now." Yan Liwu raised the wooden handle in his hand and threw it aside, raised his hand and knocked on the cold hard wall, "I'm not familiar with this underground palace, I don't know where there is an exit other than this 'door'." If you want to go out, you can 'touch' the dark and go forward to try your luck, as for whether there is a mechanism, you can ask the Qinglian King. β
"You're really not the Qinglian King?"
Yan Liwu imagined the man's frowning expression, and sighed: "I answered a hundred times, should you believe it or not, until now I don't even know who you are." β
"Me? It's just a little person, how can King Qinglian remember? There was a faint sound in the darkness where I couldn't see my fingers, and then a little fire lit up. Through the faint light of the lit oil lamp on the wall, Yan Liwu saw a man standing with his shoulders a few steps away, and his cold and handsome face had a faint trace of warmth.
After a short silence, the man said lightly: "Wen Moqing, the son of Princess Dingyuan who was killed by you." β
