Chu Qianlan came quickly.

When he heard that Ruotang had gone to Nanshan, he had a bad premonition. And Cai Qing, who was embarrassed and crawled back to deliver the letter, confirmed his guess.

Zhou Houyuan, who knew the news, was going crazy at that time, secretly resenting his carelessness, and didn't take this person too seriously to let Ruotang be in danger.

Listening to Cai Qing talk about the treasure again, Zhou Houyuan's expression became very subtle.

But Chu Qianlan, who was immersed in her worries about Ruotang, didn't notice the slightest change in him.

The women were left in the house waiting for news. Chu Qianlan took Zhou Houyuan, who had to follow, to Nanshan - Tang Pinmao said very clearly, only Chu Qianlan was allowed to go up the mountain alone.

The two horses arrived at the foot of the mountain one after the other, and Chu Qianlan insisted on going up alone, because she didn't want to anger Tang Pinmao and put Ruotang in a more dangerous situation.

Zhou Houyuan said: "In case he asks for a life for a life, I will go up, and there will always be someone to collect your body, don't you say?"

Chu Qianlan didn't know what was wrong with him at this time, thinking that his words were also reasonable, so she didn't insist anymore.

When the two of them anxiously rushed to the top of the mountain, looking at the appearance of sitting on the ancient branches of the ancient trees stretched out obliquely from the cliff with ropes tied and holding their shoulders trembling in the wind, Chu Qianlan pursed her lips tightly, and her eyes were red.

Tang Pinmao was still standing on the cliff, looking up at the two people on the top of the mountain, and greeted with a smile, "Lord Xiang is finally here." If you don't come, I'm not sure how long the princess will last. If there is any accident for the princess, it is not you, the prince of Xiang. ”

"Name your terms." Chu Qianlan's cold-as-knife-like gaze paused for only a moment, and then looked at Ruotang again. "If anything happens to her, this king promises, this time I will definitely see you die with my own eyes!"

"It's really heartless." Tang Pinmao chuckled, "Anyway, I have also been in trouble with the prince for a few years, but the prince still says that he will kill him, and he doesn't talk about any affection." ”

Chu Qianlan stared at him coldly, "Could it be that you met this king for the first day?" ”

Tang Pinmao was stunned when he heard this, and then laughed, "It's my fault, how can I be a friend to a person like you?" I deserve today's fate. But karma, it's time for Prince Xiang to taste the bitter fruits he sowed——"

As he spoke, his expression turned cold. His eyes became deep and solemn, and with a palm of his hand, a dagger appeared in his hand, he threw it lightly towards his head, and asked coldly: "If Prince Xiang wants to save the princess, he will stab himself in the chest first."

Chu Qianlan didn't take the dagger, he moved his feet, as if he wanted to fly directly to the trunk of the tree under Ruotang, he took a rough look, the branch was enough to bear the weight of him and Ruotang.

However, Tang Pinmao immediately saw through his plan, he raised the rope in his hand, and said leisurely: "I advise the prince of Xiang to think twice before acting, you move." I was frightened and my hand shook, and Princess Xiang fell because of it...... Tsk, it's high tide, and I don't know what will happen if people fall from such a high place? ”

Only then did Chu Qianlan and Zhou Houyuan see clearly that one end of the rope that fixed Ruotang on the trunk was actually controlled by Tang Pinmao, because the knot was hidden under the trunk, even Ruotang didn't notice it.

As long as he gently pulled the knot in his hand, without the protection of the rope, Ruotang might not be able to sit on the trunk.

"You just said that as long as the prince gives you the treasure, the past grievances will be written off!" Ruotang held back his trembling and interjected in a calm tone as much as possible. Although Tang Pinmao "kindly" gave her a thin cloak. But at this time, there is no difference between being wrapped on the body and not being wrapped at all, even people can be blown away by the mountain wind, what can a thin cloak be used for?

She was worried that she would fall, and on the other hand, she was worried about Chu Qianlan, but she was still cold, but she wanted to pretend that she was fine, so as not to worry Chu Qianlan and her brother-in-law and be led by Tang Pinmao by the nose. Therefore, in the tense and cold situation, the nerves in Ruotang's brain were already tense.

Tang Pinmao winked innocently at Ruotang, "The prince is strong in martial arts, and he is not his opponent, not to mention that there is the owner of Wanxiang Mansion here, if I can't get out of the way, no matter how much treasure I have, I won't be able to take it." Lord Wang, what are you waiting for? "With great talent.

Chu Qianlan bent down to pick up the dagger and pulled it out without hesitation.

Ruotang shouted anxiously, desperately looking up: "Don't believe him." He just wants your life! ”

If he really just wanted the treasure, but Chu Qianlan had been here for a while, he hadn't even mentioned the treasure once, for him, Chu Qianlan's life was what he cared about the most. What kind of write-off, he never thought of writing off old grudges with Chu Qianlan at all!

Tang Pinmao was exposed by Ruotang about his intentions, and he was not annoyed, he still looked at Chu Qianlan with a smile, "Prince Xiang and Princess Xiang, the landlord can only bring back one, how should the prince choose?" ”

Before he finished speaking, the snowy dagger in Chu Qianlan's hand had already pierced his chest without hesitation!

"Nope! No! Ruotang's frightened soul was scattered, and he was horrified to see Chu Qianlan still standing firmly on the edge of the cliff with the hilt of the knife in his hand, he looked at her, and his angry expression at the beginning had clearly become gentle.

"Well, close your eyes and don't look."

Ruotang couldn't help but shake his head, watching the blood dripping out of his wounds, and tears couldn't help but fall.

From an angle that she couldn't see or hear, Zhou Houyuan supported Chu Qianlan from behind, couldn't help but frown, and said, "The dagger is poisonous!"

"If he doesn't watch me die, how can he rest assured!" Chu Qianlan sneered, "Only when he sees me dead with his own eyes will he let Xiaotang go." This poison is not enough to be fatal, I think he wants to see more of my painful appearance, I can hold on, it is important to save Xiaotang! ”

"Don't worry, isn't it already arranged? This time, I promise nothing will go wrong. Zhou Houyuan said coldly, his eyes on the dense green vines on the cliff wall, "Xiaotang, I will also bring it back safely." ”

Chu Qianlan nodded at him, no longer wasting time at the moment, he pulled out the dagger on his chest again, and looked at Tang Pinmao coldly, "Tang Shizi is satisfied?" ”

"The prince of Xiang is really affectionate to the princess of Xiang, which is touching." Tang Pinmao smiled and praised, looked up at Chu Qianlan's appearance of holding on but frowning and forcibly enduring, and the smile on his face became deeper and deeper, "I won't waste time, otherwise Princess Xiang will not be able to hold on, after all, she has been kind to me, I really never thought of hurting her." ”

As he said this, he glanced at Ruotang apologetically, but it was a pity that Ruotang was worried about Chu Qianlan, and he didn't respond to him with half an eye, and he was not annoyed, and said with a smile: "The treasure of the lost city has been emptied by the prince, now please tell me, where did you hide those treasures?"

Chu Qianlan was about to open his mouth to make up a random place to deceive him, Tang Pinmao seemed to see his intentions, and warned: "Prince Xiang must not lie to me, otherwise, when Princess Xiang is in danger again in the future, it is uncertain whether Prince Xiang can save her again."

"The treasure of the lost city, this king has long given up." Chu Qianlan was silent for a moment, but still decided to tell the truth.

Tang Pinmao frowned, "You gave up a long time ago?" You're telling me that you didn't remove those treasures? ”

"It's not."

"Huh." Tang Pinmao sneered, "Do you think I'll believe it?" ”

Zhou Houyuan, who had been silent, stepped forward and looked down coldly at Tang Pinmao's angry face, "The treasure of the lost city was indeed not taken by him. Because the treasures are in my hands. ”

As soon as he said this, not only Tang Pinmao was stunned, but Ruotang and Chu Qianlan were stunned.

Everyone's eyes fell on him.

Zhou Houyuan snorted coldly: "What, don't you believe it?"

Ruotang suddenly remembered that every time his uncle made a move, it must not be an ordinary product, and he remembered that there were so many industries in Liuguo, he sold it to the queen for five taels of silver, and even she was distressed and had a lot of pain for several days, but her uncle looked like a nobody, and couldn't help but swallow his saliva with difficulty - I can't help but swallow my saliva with difficulty - I can't tell what my uncle said, it's true!

The wealthy Zhou family, the mysterious Wanxianglou, and the bold style of spending money...... Ruotang thought that this treasure, which was broken and bloodied by many people, easily became the pocket of his uncle, and no one noticed it, so he felt that he didn't know how to comment on it.

Ruotang thought of this, obviously Tang Pinmao also thought of it, his expression changed from doubtful to no longer suspicious, and finally couldn't help laughing, "The head of the others is scrambling for blood, but for the landlord, it takes no effort at all, it's really ironic!" Now, please tell the landlord that those treasures are now - the Zhou family is so rich, I think the landlord has never taken those treasures to heart, and I think it is worth it to exchange those treasures for the life of the princess of Xiang! ”

Zhou Houyuan pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled, "Of course it's worth it, Tang Shizi listened, those treasures were hidden by me——"

Tang Pinmao couldn't help but concentrate and calmed down, waiting for Zhou Houyuan to tell the location of the treasure.

However, he could never wait for Zhou Houyuan's answer.

As a sword passed through his chest from behind, another sharp dagger flew at the same time and with precision, severing his wrist-to-wrist grip on the rope. At the same time, a green figure resembling a vine shot in, grabbing at his severed hand and the rope still held by him.

Tang Pinmao lowered his head in disbelief, lowered his head and looked at the long sword on his chest, ignoring the pain, he turned his head with all his strength, and saw another man who even had a green face grinning at him with a harmless face, and then, the man raised his hand and gently pushed.

Tang Pinmao's body fell like a fallen leaf in autumn without any suspense, and was swallowed up by the surging tide in an instant.
