Chapter 414: Accidental Discovery

Shen Yinqiu thought for a while and said, "If the emperor directly orders, would they still dare to think of interceding with those officials and asking for a retrial?" ”

"Dare, if they jointly write a letter, the emperor can't ignore it."

Shen Yinqiu wondered in his heart, and said, "Didn't you already search for evidence for them?" The evidence is ironclad. ”

Wan Qiyan closed his eyes and said: "There are some things that will not be able to be started even if the evidence is ironclad, I have passed on the deeds of the rest of the officials behind their backs to the emperor, with that evidence, they should not have time to meddle in other people's affairs." ”

Shen Yinqiu suddenly realized that she was also a little tired, Wan Qiyan suddenly opened her eyes and said, "You haven't eaten dinner yet." ”

Is this important? Shen Yinqiu looked at him wordlessly, and he didn't eat.

"Are you hungry? I'll have you prepared a supper. ”

Wan Qian Yan bowed his jaw, "You also eat something, and your medicine, you can't stop." ”

Shen Yinqiu's face was expressionless in an instant, and she could still sleep well without mentioning the decoction.

The two of them sat at the dinner table, because they were going to rest later, and they were not too full to eat, and most of them were light with food. Shen Yinqiu ate carelessly, compared to Wan Qiyan's nothing, she ate a piece of pastry or some fruit from time to time when she was reading the script on the side, so she was not too hungry.

She won't go hungry!

"It's late, Aoba hasn't come back yet, and it's not how old and white are going." Shen Yinqiu glanced at the dark night outside, feeling a little uneasy.

It stands to reason that with that Gu worm leading the way, Aoba should have found Wanbai's location, right? Could it be that the other party took Wanbai very far, or did the insect not find where Wanbai was?

She furrowed her brow, as if she were thinking about something very serious.

Wan Qiyan couldn't get used to it, and fed her a mouthful of green vegetables, "It's only been three hours since they left, what is the function of that Gu worm, except for Wan Bai, none of us knows." He is a miracle doctor, and all people are born, old, sick and die, so everyone will not easily offend the doctor. The other party gave us a piece of paper but didn't ask for anything, which also shows that the other party just needs Wanbai's medical skills. In the past, many people in the rivers and lakes had been helped by Wan Bai, and once the news was released, those people would not let go of those who hurt Wan Bai. ”

Shen Yinqiu listened to the reasonableness, but she still said faintly: "This doesn't mean that Wanbai is out of danger. ”

Wan Qiyan stalked, "It's a matter of time before you get out of danger, hurry up and eat something and rest well, tomorrow...... I'll probably go into the palace again, and you don't go to see anyone in the courtyard, I'm afraid that some radical people will disturb you. ”

Shen Yinqiu looked at him and said, "Well, but shouldn't the emperor be very busy now?" Do the radicals refer to those who have their homes raided, and they know that you are behind the evidence? ”

Wan Qiyan put down the spoon, he didn't plan to give Shen Yinqiu too much to eat, picked up the wet hand towel on the side and wiped the corners of her mouth, and said, "He summoned me to the palace because he was busy, and the radical people were not only those officials who were raided." There are also some people who are about to be raided, and through yesterday's raid, those who have a little brain will even think of who is behind it. ”

During this time, he was the only one who often entered the palace, and every time he came into contact with the crown prince, he naturally became the focus of suspicion. People who are desperate and at the end of the road, break the jar and fall, and will always do something that would rather kill the wrong person than let it go.

Shen Yinqiu nodded clearly, "So the emperor actually pushed you out as a shield, because this will reduce the danger of the prince, he is protecting the prince regardless of our life or death!" She said that her little face wrinkled, what a fair deal, how many things Wan Qiyan has done during this time! If you don't get anything, forget it, and you have to calculate it for them as a shield.

Wan Qiyan looked at her expression and persuaded comfortingly: "No one will care about your life or death, I will be responsible to the end." ”

Shen Yinqiu couldn't care less about being moved, "The person who needs to be protected is you, although your martial arts are very good, but there are people outside the world, and there are hidden arrows that are difficult to prevent." ”

"It's okay, they know that I like to pick soft persimmons if they can't fight, and they will definitely find you after they fail here."

Shen Yinqiu: "...... If you confess like this, I can't be moved. ”

"Stay safe, worry about me and worry about Wanbai, you have to worry about yourself even more. If something happens to you, we're in shambles. ”

Saying this, Shen Yinqiu promised: "If I am caught, I swear that I will not confide in you anything!" ”

"No, it's not this, I'll lose from the moment you were caught, and I'm going to talk about deployment when I'm confused." Wan Qiyan looked at her warmly.

Shen Yinqiu choked for a moment, forked a pill and sent it to his mouth, "Don't talk about love at night, I'm so tired, rest, I hope Wanbai will come back tomorrow." ”

Wan Qiyan bit the pill silently, what he said was not love but the truth, if Ah Qiu was caught at such a time, then the end must be more than lucky, how could he rest assured. Strengthen the vigilance and prepare a stand-in, all blame it for being too high-profile before.

However, the next day, Shen Yinqiu woke up and didn't see the shadows of Wan Bai and Qingye.

She had a good night's sleep, poor Aoba followed the Gu worm and chased it all night, Wansan a big man couldn't stand it, but he looked at Aoba and was really embarrassed to say that he wanted to rest.

I don't know who the group that captured Wan Bai is, judging from the way they have been around all night, the other party seems to have expected that they will come to track him down, and they did it deliberately. This Gu worm is also very unreliable, from here to back there, I don't know if I am being taken around.

By the time dawn broke, Aoba and Mansan had already arrived in a remote forest outside the capital, and there was really no one in this place.

Wan San finally stopped his legs and touched the sweat that was about to weaken, "Aoba, is this Gu worm useful, how do I feel like it's playing tricks on us, and this forest is not big, could it be Tibetan?" ”

"Just follow it and you'll know." Aoba lifted his heel to the Gu worm that was already shuttling through the woods, and Wan San sighed in his heart, he needed to rest for a while before he could keep up with her, after all, his internal strength was limited.

Qingye followed the Gu worm and went straight through the woods, faintly smelling a foul smell. She quickly pulled out her face towel to cover her mouth and nose, and her other hand was already on her blood-tracing sword, ready to deal with emergencies at any time.

The Gu insect jumped from one tree to another, and its speed was no worse than that of Qingye, and when it was shuttling through the woods, it seemed to know what was in front of it, and it was particularly excited, which was manifested in the fact that it was moving faster and faster.

As it was speeding, it suddenly turned a corner, leaped forward, and fell straight down. Aoba who had been following it closely was stunned, and quickly stopped, and found that it was a hole!

The Gu worm had already fallen into it, and it couldn't be retrieved, and its small figure had long since disappeared in front of Aoba's eyes. Aoba stood on the edge of the pit and observed, and at a glance it was seen that it had been excavated artificially, and the mouth of the pit was round, not very large, about an arm's width apart.

But it doesn't look like it's the result of digging up some treasure.

Aoba also began to wonder what the insect was doing at this time, and she didn't even hesitate to go down and investigate.

Wan San had already caught up from behind, and when he saw Aoba standing there, he hurriedly went over and said, "I've been waiting for a long time." Then he turned his head and saw the hole, and was a little puzzled, "This is ......."

"The Gu worm has fallen." Aoba said, looking up at the surroundings, "The environment here is damp and dark, surrounded by big trees, blocking the sunlight and blocking the light, can you see what is underneath?" ”

Wan San walked to the edge of the cave and looked at it, he couldn't see anything, it was black, but he smelled a disgusting smell, he raised his hand and fanned it: "I can't see clearly, but this smell is simply a corpse pit." ”

"Corpse pits?" Aoba asked rhetorically.

"Yes, the smell of corpses decomposing, one corpse can't reach this level, it seems to be caused by many corpses piled together for a long time." Wan San is responsible for investigating more in this regard, so he knows a little bit about these. Aoba is responsible for assassination, usually only killing the living, and often comes into contact with people who have just died, so she doesn't remember what a corpse that has been dead for a long time smells like.

Wan San tore off a small section of his clothes and stretched it in front of his nose, no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't detect the breath of a living person inside, and he said, "Is it possible that Lao Bai will be down there?" ”

In an instant, Aoba looked at him coldly, as if he felt a little angry.

Wansan knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he quickly begged for mercy, "Don't be angry, don't be angry!" I mean, it's not like you're going to be locked up there, that's not what you think. ”

Also, Fang Cai also said that it was a corpse pit, and then asked Wan Bai if he was below, didn't he say that Wan Bai had an accident.

Aoba's demeanor softened a little, and she couldn't take a breath in thought, "I'll go down and investigate." ”

Although Wan San was a little tired, he was absolutely able to hold on, he had to rest for a while before he could keep up, because he couldn't use up his physical and internal strength in the unknown environment, and he had to save it for emergencies, after all, he wouldn't be naïve enough to think that finding Wanbai and not having a vicious fight would bring people back.

Even if Aoba is recognized as powerful, he can't take such a risk, this preservation of physical strength is still stipulated by their master, and it can be used to escape and compete for a glimmer of life at a critical moment.

Aoba can hold on for one night and still keep his face like this, don't mention that the other party is still a girl, he already admires Aoba's physical strength and internal strength, Aoba still has strength, and he still needs to slow down.

He always felt that it wouldn't be so simple below, you look at the artificially dug hole, it doesn't seem to be shallow, and it is full of the smell of rotting corpses, they are not afraid of defrauding corpses, but they are afraid of poisoning. And don't you think it's weird, in the wild woods on the outskirts of the capital, digging such a hole, and there is no one around to guard it.

Wan San thought for a while and said, "Aoba, let's think about it, it's easy to go down, but it's not convenient to come up." ”

"You can answer me here." Aoba stood on the edge of the pit and probed inside.
