Even if he had the heart to take into account the face of Emperor Liu Gradual, but in the end he couldn't say anything too contrary to his will, he could only use such an attitude to tell Liu Gra and King Qing that he was willing to marry Qingling, because he didn't want Mao Leyan to be questioned.

However, even though the Queen Mother was willing to pardon Mao Leyan's great disrespect, Mao Leyan did not know what to do.

After two days of investigation, there was still no news from Mao Leyan, and Liu gradually became anxious and sent his secret guards out to look for him.

Xiao Shu Fan'er was so anxious that she cried, and Lawei was also going around, asking the guards who were investigating on her behalf, but there was no news.

However, Zhao Zhenyu was drinking tea in Zhaoyang Hall with a leisurely look, and when he saw that everyone was anxious, he smiled and said: "Don't worry about her, you can't die!" ”

Fan Er punched him and said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense, see why you don't worry at all?" It's in vain that Miss Fei was so kind to you before. ”

Xiao Shu glanced at him lightly and said, "People are hard-hearted, how dare you expect people to have the slightest worry?" It's good not to fall into the ground. ”

Zhao Zhenyu said lightly: "What's the use of worrying?" I've been with the official for so long, don't you know what the official's surname is? Mao Leyan doesn't need you to worry, she hasn't experienced any storms and waves since these days, and she can cross this gutter casually. ”

Lawei frowned and said, "I'm just afraid that the boat will capsize in the gutter!" ”

Fan Er hurriedly glanced at him, "Clean nonsense, spit and say it again!" ”

Ra Wei hurriedly snorted, "I said nonsense." Miss will definitely be auspicious. ”

As calm as Zhao Zhenyu is Mo Yan, she sat quietly at the door, holding Mao Leyan's hookah bamboo tube in her hand, scholar Mao Leyan lit the hookah and smoked it, but she was choked with tears and snot flowing together, she threw away the bamboo tube and said, "I thought it was a baby!" ”

Mao Leyan has been missing for more than two days, and Liu gradually can't sleep at night, waiting for news from the secret guard. At the time of the third watch, he was restless in his dormitory, and there was always a premonition of auspiciousness in his heart, and his eyebrows were beating vigorously. This is the first time he has felt so flustered since he met Mao Leyan.

He went to the Zhaoyang Palace, the lights in the Zhaoyang Hall were still bright, Xiao Shu and the others did not sleep, they were all waiting for news in the main hall.

"The emperor has arrived!" Li Yuan's voice echoed in the Zhaoyang Palace, appearing empty and desolate.

Xiao Shu and the others hurriedly went to pick up the car, and Liu gradually said: "Get up, take me to the dormitory!" He needs a place where Mao Leyan breathes to make himself feel at ease.

Xiao Shu didn't dare to ask more, so he took Liu gradually to Mao Leyan's bedroom, pushed open the door, and the dormitory was pitch black, Liu gradually frowned, "So dark?" ”

Xiao Shu hurriedly went to light the candles, and the candlesticks on the wall also lit up, illuminating the hall.

Liu gradually ordered Li Yuan and Xiao Shu to withdraw, and sat on the chaise longue near the window, the window was pushed open, and a cold wind swept in, raising the veil next to the bed, and a few candles on the wall were blown out, and the southwest corner suddenly dimmed.

This was the first time he had officially sat in Mao Leyan's bedroom, and his previous panic had not weakened, on the contrary, the breath of Mao Leyan in the room made him even more worried.

With a "whoosh", a small pebble flew in from the window and landed on the marble floor with a crisp sound. Liu gradually jumped up and looked at the note on the ground in horror.

He stood up and picked up the pebbles on the ground, which were wrapped in a piece of paper, and there were only a few words on the note: If you want to find Mao Leyan, go to Nancun immediately alone.

He barely even thought about it, so he immediately pulled the door out, Li Yuan hurriedly followed, and Liu gradually said: "You don't have to follow me, and you don't have to tell anyone that I want to leave the palace!" ”

Li Yuan was stunned for a moment and asked, "Where is the emperor going?" ”

Liu gradually did not answer him, and his body quickly passed through the corridor and went out from the palace gate.

In the middle of the night, he walked alone to the palace gate, and the guards couldn't recognize him, so he stretched out his sword to stop him, "Who?" It is forbidden to leave the palace at this time! ”

Liu gradually said coldly: "Go and take my mount out immediately!" ”

The guards were taken aback, and hurriedly knelt down and saluted, saying, "See the emperor!" ”

After a while, I saw the guards come out with the little guy leading the horse, and Liu gradually turned over the horse and galloped away.

Mao Leyan did use the rapid movement technique to leave the quiet room, she originally wanted to stay in the quiet room for two or three days, and when the queen mother was angry, she would always be let out. But as soon as she entered the quiet room, she heard the terrible screams of zombies, which were all too familiar, the sound of zombies being killed. It is impossible for an ordinary Taoist priest to exterminate a zombie like Mo Yan, but this roar is clearly the tragic scream of a zombie before he dies, which is very terrifying.

She immediately left, and came to the place where the zombies roared, this was a hill, and when she arrived, it was silent, only the whining of the mountain wind, and there were no zombies in sight. And here, it doesn't seem like there has been a vicious fight, she feels a little weird in her heart, she came with a rapid movement technique, only a few seconds before and after, it is impossible for someone to clean up the scene so cleanly.

There was a sudden hissing behind her, and she turned her head sharply, but she was almost disillusioned with fright. A big snake with a thick bowl mouth was winding towards her, the snake's head was slightly raised, the snake letter stretched out slightly, and the vicious eyes stared at Mao Leyan. Mao Leyan is not afraid of anything in her life, but she is most afraid of snakes, not to mention such a big snake, even if it is a four-legged snake as thick as a finger, she is very afraid.

This is a childhood shadow, I think she was only six or seven years old back then, and her grandfather took her to kill the snake demon. There are snakes all over the mountains, there are colorful, gray and dark, grandpa told her that these are all poisonous snakes, the brighter the color, the more poisonous they are. When she said she was afraid, her grandfather threw her into the snake pile, saying that she wanted to exercise her courage.

As a result, for three years, she woke up in her sleep and was drenched in cold sweat. In the dream, she was entangled in the body of snakes all over the mountains, unable to move, and each snake stretched out its snake letter to her, and the cold snake body was close to her face.

And her grandfather told her that only by defeating her own demons can she become the strongest person in the Mao family. So, from that time on, she forced herself to face the snake and force herself to touch the snake, but every contact made her unable to sleep for several nights. Some time ago, Liu Dafang of Tanglin Village was bitten to death by a snake, and she had also seen the murderer with her own eyes, but it was already a dead snake, so she didn't feel frightened. And the one in front of her is enough for her to lose her three souls.

She ran forward so violently that her whole body went limp, and after a few steps she fell to the ground, and her hands trembled as she looked back at the serpent that had followed her. The snake was pitch black, even shiny, about ten meters long, and snaked as it snaggled up, and the dead grass on the hillside was pressed to the ground by it, and then slowly bounced up.

Mao Leyan stretched out her right hand, the exorcism sword took shape in her hand, she swung her sword towards the big snake, only to hear a clang, the exorcism sword seemed to be cut on a stone, extremely hard, and then look at the snake, it was not injured at all, and continued to slide towards her.

Mao Leyan's scalp suddenly went numb, she held the exorcism sword, stood up majestically, her body flew up in the air, and slashed at the snake body with all her might. I still heard a clang, and the snake's body was so strong that I couldn't see it at all. And after she landed, the snake quickly came to her, she didn't care about the ancestral training of the Mao family, she was defeated by demons and monsters, don't use teleportation to escape. She chanted the incantation and walked away with teleportation.

However, no matter where she went, the snake always appeared in front of her, and she was shocked, and she had an ominous premonition in her heart, I was afraid that she had fallen into a trap today, and someone used a zombie to lure her out, and I didn't know why this person knew that she was afraid of snakes, and knew how to use snakes to restrain her.

She stood still, and repeated attempts at the teleportation technique had exhausted her to the extreme, and she raised her exorcist sword, and just waited for it to come, and then she raised her sword and fell, whether she succeeded in killing it or not, she had to let go of it.

The snake soon wrapped itself around her calf, the cold touch made the hairs on her body stand on end, and she shouted a little frantically, raising the exorcist sword in her hand, and was about to cut it down on her calf.

Just as the lightning flashed, a thought flashed through her mind, "No, it's impossible that the exorcism sword can't kill a snake, even if it's a thousand-year-old snake spirit, if it is slashed by the exorcism sword, it will definitely die." She slowly calmed down, restrained the fear in her heart, and her mind suddenly cleared up, and exclaimed, "It's an illusion!" ”

As her voice rang out, and she looked at her calf again, the snake had disappeared, and sure enough, it was a hallucination. She was scared, and if she cut it down with a sword, she was afraid that her leg would be lost.

She was sweating profusely, slumped on the ground, waited for it to calm down, and then stood up and looked around, she knew that someone must use a zombie to lure her out, could it be Chen Ru'er? She couldn't be sure, now that she was the leader of the martial arts alliance, she would definitely provoke a lot of people with extraordinary abilities from all walks of life, and it was not impossible for someone to want to get rid of her.

Ever since the snake had disappeared, the hillside had been calm, and the cold sweat had been dried by the mountain wind, and she had begun to feel cold. She stood up and walked to the top of the slope, down the hillside, there was a flat country road, there was a woodcutter carrying firewood on the country road, Mao Leyan stepped forward and asked: "This uncle, may I ask what place is this?" ”

The woodcutter glanced at her and said, "It's Nancun in front, girl, don't go, Nancun has been haunted recently." ”

Mao Leyan was slightly stunned, "Haunted? What's going on? ”

The woodcutter shook his head, "Who knows? Whoever hears about this matter will stay away, who dares to ask? Girl, if you go down from the west road, it is the West Village, and when you go out from the West Village, the official road can lead directly to the capital, so don't go down the road of the South Village. So saying, the woodcutter went down the road to the west.

Mao Leyan looked at the back of the woodcutter, he carried a load of firewood, walked like a fly, and disappeared in a blink of an eye. How could a person with such a high level of martial arts cut wood in this mountain field? It seems that she came to wait for her, telling her that there is a ghost in Nancun, ostensibly asking her not to go, but because she knows her identity, she will definitely go if she says so. Nancun, I think it's where the other party wants her to go.

The only people who knew her identity were Chen Ru'er and Concubine Mei, she thought about it for a while and decided to go to Nancun.
