After touching a stick of incense, Xiao Yuwen put the torch on the wall, and a square hole appeared in front of the two heads.

Xiao Yuwen was about to pick up Lin Wanyan and jump up, but he heard some voices while holding his breath. He frowned, and immediately removed the torch from the wall, and the hole closed instantly.

"What's wrong?" Lin Wanyan didn't hear anything, but when he saw Xiao Yuwen close the entrance to the cave, he felt that something must be wrong.

"You don't move here yet, I'll go up and see what's going on. It's safe here, just wait for me to come back. After Xiao Yuwen finished speaking, he tapped a few positions on the wall, and another secret passage appeared in front of him.

"Is something wrong?" Lin Wanyan felt uneasy. A good New Year's banquet is not to cause any human life, how unlucky.

"Come in, go in by yourself, lie down on the bed when you're tired, I've only lived in this room. Xiao Yuwen said as he took out another torch, lit it, and inserted it into the wall of another secret passage.

"No, I'll go out with you!" Lin Wanyan knew that something must have happened, otherwise Xiao Yuwen would not be so flustered.

"Obedient!" Xiao Yuwen was silently lucky, and pushed Lin Wanyan into the secret passage with a handful, and quickly slapped it on the wall a few times, and the secret passage disappeared.

He put the torch back on, jumped to his feet, closed the hole, and ran out.

From this secret passage is the backyard of the Star Picking Building, and there is a path leading to the hall. The Lingye Palace changes places for the New Year's party every year, and this is the first time that a banquet is held in the Star Picking Tower.

The Star Picking Tower is a stronghold of the Lingye Palace, but unlike Suxin Tower, it usually does business formally and does not accept tasks. This time, it was only announced that someone had chartered a banquet, and there was no reason to expose it.

But at this time, the Star Picking Tower has indeed been mixed up, and the good banquet is already full of messes. Because the subordinates of the Lingye Palace who participated in the banquet today, in addition to the Lingwei guard, there were also spies and killers of the three sects and nine streams, and they were all plainclothes, Xiao Yuwen glanced at the crowd of people who were fighting, and he couldn't quickly distinguish between the enemy and the enemy.

Xiao Yuwen blended into the crowd, flexibly dodging the attack, looking for someone he recognized, trying to ask about the situation.

He soon saw the spirit fox and a white-bearded old man fighting, the two of them wielding their swords at a very fast speed, but it was obvious that the spirit fox had no offensive advantage and was always at a disadvantage.

Xiao Yuwen quickly snatched the sword from the hand of a person next to him, flashed to the spirit fox and replaced him.

"What's going on?" Xiao Yuwen knocked the white-bearded man back a few steps at a very fast speed, and asked Linghu in a low voice.

Linghu didn't recognize Xiao Yuwen at first, but when he saw his swordsmanship, he knew that it was his master when he heard his voice.

"The people who entered the Hundred Flowers Palace at the banquet killed many of their comrades when they were arrested. "Linghu is a little exhausted, the injury on his back has not healed, and he has been stabbed twice in the arm just now.

Xiao Yuwen frowned, the chaos in this room is impossible to distinguish between friend and foe, and the losses will only be more heavy if he fights.

"Withdraw!" Xiao Yuwen shouted at Linghu, and then retreated by himself.

The spirit fox followed and retreated to the backyard, quickly took out three red signal flares from his arms, lit them and threw them into the air.

"Follow me!" Xiao Yuwen finished speaking, and ran towards the secret passage in the backyard.

The spirit fox jumped into the secret passage after him, and waited for Xiao Yuwen to light the torch, but saw that the spirit fox had collapsed to the ground and fainted.

Xiao Yuwen hurriedly checked the pulse of the spirit fox, and then took out a white porcelain bottle from the spirit fox, stuffed the pill inside into his mouth, and forced him to swallow it.

He tore a few pieces of cloth from his underwear and bandaged the bleeding wound on the spirit fox's arm. Then he let him sit cross-legged on the ground, and sat cross-legged behind him to heal his wounds.

However, in the time of half a cup of tea, Xiao Yuwen was already sweating profusely, his strength had not fully recovered after the last poisoning, and Linghu's internal injuries were serious, and he was only holding on at this time.

Linghu felt that there was a true qi swimming in his body, and everything he passed through was cool and pleasant.

"Master, you're not in good health, don't work hard for me, I can hold on!" Linghu slowly opened his eyes and said in a low voice.

Xiao Yuwen didn't speak, his brows were deeply locked, he gritted his teeth, and continued to close his eyes. After another half a cup of tea, he slowly withdrew his hands and put them on his lap, closed his eyes and meditated in pranayama.

Suddenly, Xiao Yuwen opened his eyes, leaned down and spit out a mouthful of blood to the side, his body was cold for a while, and his face became even paler.

"Master, do you want to be important?" Linghu turned to look at Xiao Yuwen, who was also a martial artist, and as soon as he saw Xiao Yuwen's face, he knew that his master was already very weak in order to heal himself.

"No problem. Xiao Yuwen stretched out his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, feeling dizzy and spinning, so he moved his body and leaned his back against the secret passage. "What the hell is going on?"

"When the subordinates arrived at the Star Picking Tower, there was no abnormality, and the supernatural guards who had arrived all entered with tokens and passwords. The next one after another is the Spirit Hidden Guard.

Nanxunlou's top brand Oiran Qiuyue has always secretly promised Nabu operator Luoma Lake, but he didn't care about Qiu Yue at all as if he had changed a person, and his speech was different from usual.

Qiu Yue felt that something was wrong, so she came to me and said it. I asked Ling Tian, who had always been good friends with the fortune operator, to test it, and Ling Tian was very sure that the person was not the fortune operator.

So, he fought with him, who would have thought that he played the flute, and for a while, the people who seemed to walk at will outside the star picking tower were all killed, and the master had just started a fight when he came.

But these people are all extraordinary, and the Spirit Guards can still deal with them, so the Spirit Guards are powerless to fight back, and they don't know the casualties at present, and many of them have fled for their lives. ”

The Lingyin Guard is the strange people in the rivers and lakes that the Lingye Palace has gathered, and there are three sects and nine streams. Everyone has something special, but not all of them are strong in martial arts. The Bu operator and Qiu Yue that Linghu said don't have much kung fu in their bodies, and they are all protected by the spirit guards in the dark on weekdays.

"Are you sure it's someone from the Hundred Flowers Palace?" Xiao Yuwen asked with a frown. As far as he knew, Na Mu Snow had already returned to Xuanmu Country, and there was no reason why he would leave so many masters here to make trouble. Lingye Palace has always been infallible when it comes to intelligence.

"Can't be wrong. The subordinates haven't had time to send someone to find the divination operator, I don't know if he is alive or dead, how the person who got in got the token and even matched the password, you have to check it carefully. Linghu said in a low voice.

"I'm afraid I'm dead. Bu Operator is the patriarch of the Spirit Hidden Guard, why he was exposed needs to be investigated. "Since he is a person from the Hundred Flowers Palace, there are all kinds of torture methods, and it is not unusual to be able to force a secret code.

But the Ling Night Palace has always protected the Spirit Guards very well, and the divination operator is not a newcomer, so he will definitely not say anything by himself. That is, there is really a mole, and it may be right next to him, because ordinary psychic guards have no access to this information at all.

Linghu nodded, "Today's incident, I'm afraid it will cause panic in the Lingyin Guard, the master will rest first, and I'll go out to take a look at the situation." ”

Xiao Yuwen glanced at Linghu and said lightly: "You don't have to go, now that you go out with this body, it is equivalent to death." Rest for a while, I'll give them an explanation. ”

Linghu didn't say anything more, so he had to close his eyes and breathe. At this time, neither he nor Xiao Yuwen have recovered their strength, and there are no supernatural guards around them, so they really don't have much power to parry when they go out and really encounter danger.

At this time, Lin Wanyan, who was still locked in another secret passage, was very anxious. There was indeed a secret room at the bottom of the secret passage where she could rest, but how could she have the heart to lie down and rest?

From the moment she was locked in the secret passage, she was looking around for a mechanism to get out. She locked the area on the left and right walls of the secret passage, but after studying it for a long time, she found nothing. While admiring the ingenuity of the design in his heart, he secretly scolded Xiao Yuwen for using this secret passage to lock her up.

Lin Wanyan spent minutes in the secret passage, and he never imagined that Xiao Yuwen and Linghu were outside the wall. She didn't know how long it had been, but the moment Xiao Yuwen opened the door of the secret passage and appeared in front of her, she rushed over and hugged him tightly.

"Have you been injured, why have you been there for so long?" Lin Wanyan asked anxiously.

"I'm fine, am I hungry? Xiao Yuwen said with a light smile.

Lin Wanyan let go of her hand, walked a few steps outside, and saw that there was another person outside, so frightened that she shrank back behind Xiao Yuwen.

Xiao Yuwen couldn't help but laugh when he saw her like this, "I haven't seen her for two days, so you don't know Linghu?"

"Madam!" Linghu called softly, his face was full of embarrassment, he was only injured, his face was a little ugly, but it was not scary, right?

Hearing this, Lin Wanyan walked out again with a red face, probably because he had been locked in it for too long, and Xiao Yuwen said that only he could walk through this secret passage, which suddenly had more people, she really didn't expect it.

"Are your injuries better?" Lin Wanyan asked casually, covering up his behavior just now.

"Mrs. Xie cares, it's okay. Linghu bowed his head and saluted, and replied softly.

"Well, that's good. Lin Wanyan said lightly, then took Xiao Yuwen's hand and walked forward.

Linghu walked in front with a torch, Xiao Yuwen and Lin Wanyan followed behind, and the three of them walked wordlessly all the way to the entrance of the cave.

Lin Wanyan thought that he and Xiao Yuwen had done a ridiculous thing here, and his ears were red.

Xiao Yuwen was glad in his heart that he was messing around on a whim, otherwise he would have gone out so early in half a pillar of incense, and I was afraid that Lin Wanyan would be frightened again.

After all, he hadn't figured out until now, what was the purpose of the people of the Hundred Flowers Palace sneaking into the New Year's banquet of the Lingye Palace?

Also, is Mu Snow still in Nanli City, or has he really returned to Xuan Mu Kingdom? Now that the queen has been put into the cold palace, is the deal between her and Mu Snow over? What kind of agreement has been formed between them?

In fact, neither the Lingye Palace nor the emperor have any definite evidence of the queen's fornication with the Hundred Flowers Palace. The forces in the court that are attached to the queen are also well aware of this, and have been playing to ask for a clear investigation.

If there is no strong evidence, then both the punishment of the queen and the grounding of the eldest prince are only temporary. This is indeed a headache for Xiao Yuwen.
