Chapter 208: Someone Secretly Helps
At this moment, Bai Youlan was surprised and vigilant, although her body did not move, her eyes and perception had already taken all the movements around her into her eyes and heart.
But time passed bit by bit, there was no movement around, it was quiet as if nothing had happened, if it weren't for the little minion still lying on the ground, Bai Youlan would almost mistakenly think that it was just her own illusion just now!
After waiting for a while, there was still no movement around, Bai Youlan thought quietly for a while, and decided to act according to her original plan, so she quietly walked out, dodging the sight of those minions, and walked towards the cliff where the Jade Toad scholar she saw disappeared during the day.
In the place where she couldn't see behind Bai Youlan, there was a pair of eyes looking at her with deep and concern, it was Luo Mingxuan who had followed Bai Youlan quietly all the way.
Although Luo Mingxuan received a return from the shadow of Yongmingguo, saying that Bai Youlan lived in the palace and did not have any safety problems, he was still relieved and sneaked into the palace that night.
Needless to say, the difficulty of this process is needless to say, after all, this is the Yongming Kingdom and not the Northern Tang Kingdom, and the palace of the Northern Tang Kingdom is familiar to Luo Mingxuan, but the palace of the Yongming Kingdom Luo Mingxuan is still the first time to come.
In the palace, Bai Youlan noticed a familiar aura, and Luo Mingxuan couldn't help but get closer to her slightly.
When Bai Youlan and Chen Minghui met, when Bai Youlan met the man in black pretended to be the Fu King Luo Yuze, Luo Mingxuan had been not far from Bai Youlan.
When Chen Minghui swung out a swift palm, it was Luo Mingxuan who quickly took Bai Youlan away from the place, and took advantage of the moment when Chen Minghui's palm wind smashed the boulder to wave away all the larger stones that fell towards Bai Youlan, so that Bai Youlan stood there without the slightest damage.
That little minion just now was also solved by Luo Mingxuan to help her.
Feng Moxi, who followed Luo Mingxuan, watched Luo Mingxuan follow Bai Youlan all the way, and helped her solve all kinds of troubles in a timely manner, but she didn't show up, and she was very puzzled.
At this time, Feng Moxi and Luo Mingxuan continued to follow Bai Youlan silently, helping her solve the secret whistles along the way one by one, but at the same time, they were very careful not to let Bai Youlan notice.
Finally, Feng Moxi couldn't help but ask, "Luo, why don't you show up and let her know that you are helping her?" ”
Luo Mingxuan also said softly: "If she really needs my help, I will naturally appear." ”
Feng Moxi looked at Luo Mingxuan, who had an indifferent face, and then looked at Bai Youlan in the distance, where all the actions seemed to have been designed a long time ago, he couldn't help but sigh slightly, and no longer spoke, his eyes were deep.
And although Bai Youlan is very sensitive in terms of breath, she can't resist the deliberate concealment of martial arts masters like Luo Mingxuan after all, and she doesn't know that Luo Mingxuan and the two of them are protecting her in the dark.
When she successfully approached the cliff, Bai Youlan even had some slight doubts, wondering why the guards were so lax since this place was so important.
It's just that since she has arrived here at this time, there is no reason to turn back, Bai Youlan quickly took out the candle she brought out of the room and lit it, carefully observing the cliff.
The breeze is blowing, the candlelight is swaying, and the mountain spring water is flowing by.
Bai Youlan looked at it for a while but found nothing, feeling the passage of time, Bai Youlan was a little anxious in her heart.
Carefully recalling all the movements of the Jade Toad scholar during the day, suddenly, a thought flashed through Bai Youlan's heart, and her eyes quickly fell on the left side of the cliff.
There, I don't know if it was deliberately carved or natural, there was a small stream that flowed down from the mountain.
Under the clear water of the stream, you can see a small groove every few minutes.
Stretching out her hand, Bai Youlan's fingers stroked over these grooves one by one, and found some clues in the seventh groove.
Almost all of the grooves are about the same depth, but only in the seventh groove is the touch of the fingers is slightly different, and a closer look can see that it is a little different from the others.
Bai Youlan pressed down slightly hard.
The cliff opened silently, and when you looked inside, it was dark, and it looked mysterious and terrifying in the flickering candlelight.
After a quick look, Bai Youlan walked in without the slightest hesitation.
By the candlelight, she went down the steps inside little by little, and gradually Bai Youlan found that there was light in front of her, not as dark as it was at the beginning, so she carefully extinguished the candle in her hand and continued to walk forward.
At the moment when the candle went out, Bai Youlan seemed to feel as if two figures had jumped past her, but this feeling disappeared in a flash, making her completely unsure if it was her illusion.
It's just that her heart has begun to pay attention, and she hasn't forgotten the many times that someone has helped her in the dark, and she hasn't forgotten the scene where the little minion fell in front of her just before.
After seven turns and eight turns, Bai Youlan gradually walked to a secret room, glanced at it and was about to continue, but stopped abruptly.
There didn't seem to be anything unusual in that secret room, but Bai Youlan noticed that there was a mural hanging on the wall.
There was nothing strange about that mural, but it was a coincidence that in Bai Youlan's original world, their Tang Sect elders had one that was used to store rare medicines or poisons. There is a mural hanging on the outside of the secret cabinet of medicine.
Although the two murals cannot be the same, there is a similarity between the same hanging murals, and Bai Youlan is sensitive to suspicions.
Bai Youlan walked in gently, reaching out to open the mural to see if there was any dark grid behind the painting, but as soon as she stretched out her hand, she heard a very fast sound in her ears, coming straight towards her!
Before she had time to think about what she had done to trigger the mechanism, Bai Youlan suddenly rolled backwards, dodging a wave of arrows that came at her in a hurry.
It's just that before Bai Youlan straightened up, the wall next to him opened to the side with a "bang", and a line of five black-clothed masked people quickly jumped out from inside, and Bai Youlan was in the middle!
At this moment, Bai Youlan knew that it might be difficult to be good today, her silver needle was not on her body, and the poison was only a little in the rouge box, which was really difficult to do.
Just as Bai Youlan's gaze quickly swept over the five people, thinking about what to do, another figure jumped out of the darkness.
Before Bai Youlan could see who it was, the figure that appeared after that quickly and quickly pounced on the five black-clothed masked people before, and after a few rounds, he simply threw the five black-clothed masked people to the ground.
Glancing at Bai Youlan with a deep gaze, the figure quickly disappeared into the darkness again.
This back and forth, almost in the blink of an eye, was completed, leaving no trace, as if it had never appeared.
It's just that, looking at the figure that disappeared into the darkness, Bai Youlan slowly hooked the corners of her lips and showed a smile, but the confusion in her heart rose again.
This figure came and went so fast, Bai Youlan didn't see his face clearly, and this person appeared at such a critical moment for her and helped her, but Bai Youlan had a faint uneasiness in her heart for some reason.
It was as if the timing of this man's appearance was so coincidental that it felt like he was waiting for this moment.
Suppressing the doubts in her heart, Bai Youlan picked up the weapon of a person on the ground and threw it at the height of the mural, and the blade was just right to cut the rope of the mural.
The mural fell to the ground with a "bang", revealing the wall behind it, but Bai Youlan was slightly startled.
Behind that wall is a pair of lifelike eyes!
Those eyes are real and people mistakenly think they are real, and in such a dark environment, such a pair of eyes suddenly appear, it is really terrifying.
It's just that Bai Youlan was taken aback and immediately reacted, it was just a painting on it, not a real human eye.
However, despite reacting, Bai Youlan still did not step forward, but quickly took a few steps back, directly exited the secret room, and stood outside the door of the secret room.
Just when she revealed those eyes, she could clearly perceive that inside those strange eyes, a trace of colorless poison was slowly spitting out!
Bai Youlan didn't have any medicinal materials available in her hand to detoxify, so she had to wait for the colorless poison to slowly disperse in the secret room.
At this moment, the five black-clothed masked men who should have been dealt with by the mysterious person suddenly jumped up and rushed towards the door with great speed, but they only ran out less than three steps before falling to the ground in pain.
The five of them struggled on the ground, trying to crawl out, but blood slowly oozed from the corners of their eyes, and then they lay on the ground and did not move.
The colorless poison gradually disappeared strangely at the door of the secret room, Bai Youlan did not have the slightest expression of surprise, but her eyes were only fixed on the five black-clothed masked people who died.
Why did they jump up all of a sudden?
Even if the mysterious man didn't really kill them, but just made them faint, they shouldn't have woken up at this time, and they moved so quickly as if they hadn't been hurt!
Could it be that the mysterious man didn't hurt them at all, and the five of them were just cooperating with the mysterious man in a play!
Bai Youlan's mind unexpectedly thought of such a possibility, and at the same time, there were other doubts in her heart.
If they were acting together in a scene, then how could these five people be poisoned here!
Shaking her head slightly, Bai Youlan put aside all kinds of thoughts for the time being, looked at those strange eyes, lit the candle again, and walked towards the secret room step by step.
