Chapter 233: Find the person you are looking for
The eyes are deeply opposed.
After a moment, Ximen Jingxuan let go of his hand and stood up straight. For a moment, he was a little dazed, and he didn't know why he had to tell Mochizuki what was on his mind.
Wanting to find his mother concubine has been his wish for many years, others can guess, but he has never said it to anyone in person, but he unknowingly mentioned it to Mochizuki.
"I'll go to the palace." Ximen Jingxuan walked around the desk and said to Mochizuki, who was standing by the chair.
"Hmm." Lin Xin'er nodded lightly and walked out of the study with Ximen Jingxuan.
Ximen Jingxuan glanced back at her deeply, then quickened his pace and left quickly.
Lin Xin'er stopped, looked at Ximen Jingxuan's figure in a blink of an eye, and stood still for a moment, after making sure that he was gone, she turned around and looked at the door of the study.
The door was just hidden.
It seems that Ximen Jingxuan has no precautions against the study, could it be that Zheng Xianlun really didn't hide in this secret passage?
Maybe it's really a risky move.
Lin Xin'er thought about it, so she quickly stepped forward and flashed into the study.
According to the memory of the last time, Lin Xin'er quickly opened the door of the secret passage hidden behind the bookcase.
Lin Xin'er picked up the candlestick on the table, lit the candle, used it as lighting, and walked into the secret passage.
There was a torch on the wall not far from the secret passage, and Lin Xin'er lit the torch with a candle for convenience, held it in her hand, and exchanged it with the candlestick in her hand.
The secret passage twisted and wented, and soon reached the secret room where he was trapped that day.
Lin Xin'er used all the tricks she had at her disposal to open the door of the secret room from the outside, and there was nothing inside.
Lin Xin'er didn't dare to step in, and after closing the door of the secret room, she continued to grope forward.
The dark road is getting more and more gloomy, and according to the calculation of the footsteps, it should be out of the Xuan Palace.
Suddenly, the sound of the chain was heard, very soft, but it was very clear in the dark and silent dark passage.
Lin Xin'er's figure froze, she quickened her pace, and ran quickly towards the voice she heard.
At this time, several forks were built in the secret passage, and there were many iron prisons, as if it was once a special place to detain people, if she hadn't heard the sound, Lin Xin'er didn't know which fork to go to for a while.
Another sound of iron chains sounded, and right in front of Lin Xin'er, the sound of metal colliding was a little harsh.
Lin Xin'er stopped in front of an iron prison, and through the iron rods, she saw a ragged man curled up in the innermost corner, with a few black dirty steamed buns thrown in front of him.
Raising the torch, Lin Xin'er took a look at the person and couldn't see his face.
Sensing the light, the man moved slightly, and the chain that held him rattled a few more times, but he did not raise his head, and his gray, messy hair hung down in no order.
"Are you Zheng Xianlun Zheng Taiyi?" Lin Xin'er asked.
He must be yes, it must be him! Lin Xin'er's heart sounded with such a voice.
Zheng Xianlun heard that it was a female voice, and raised his head slightly, but the messy hair hanging in front of his face still covered his vision, and he faintly looked at Lin Xin'er's figure from between his hair, but Lin Xin'er still couldn't see his face.
"I heard that you are dumb, probably Ximen Jingxuan doesn't believe it either, and I don't believe it either." Lin Xin'er said.
Zheng Xianlun lowered his head silently.
"Aren't you curious about my presence?" Lin Xin'er asked, taking the torch and shaking Zheng Xianlun again.
Zheng Xianlun changed his posture and curled up in the corner again, without saying a word.
"I'm not with Ximen Jingxuan, I secretly came to you to take you out to treat someone." Lin Xin'er continued, "That person's identity is quite special, so it's a secret. She needs you so much right now. ”
Zheng Xianlun looked up at Lin Xin'er again, and reached out to lift the messy hair in front of his face.
Lin Xin'er was able to see his face, which was covered with dirt, which should have been a scab formed by blood mixed with dust. But the general appearance can still be seen, because of the inhuman life, like a weathered old man.
However, from the information obtained by the Water Moon Palace, Zheng Xianlun should only be in his forties.
"I'll take you out of here in just the next few days." Lin Xin'er looked at Zheng Xianlun and said.
"Why not now?" A hoarse voice came out of Zheng Xianlun's mouth, as if he had been asleep for many years.
Lin Xin'er didn't expect Zheng Xianlun to speak, and was slightly stunned.
Why not now?
Lin Xin'er didn't expect to find Zheng Xianlun so easily, it turned out that the most neglected place was the place where people were most likely to hide.
Why isn't she in a hurry to take him away now? She had promised a few days to find Zheng Xianlun and bring him to the Water Moon Sacred Palace, she found out in advance so quickly, she shouldn't be happy, but why did she feel lost, a heavy loss.
It's like losing something very important.
She knew that it was her selfishness again, she didn't want to leave now, and she gave herself an excuse to delay.
"I still have some things to do, and I'm not very familiar with this secret passage, I'm afraid that there will be no return. So, let me explore the way more, and I'll take you away without fail. Lin Xin'er said.
Zheng Xianlun lowered his head again.
"Don't worry, I will take you away in five days at most, and the patient will not be delayed." Lin Xin'er said.
Five days is the deadline she gave herself.
Master, just leave five days for the apprentice, okay?
"Five days? Okay, I'll wait. Zheng Xianlun said in a hoarse and dull voice, "It's just that if it's been a long time, I'm afraid I won't be able to consume it." ”
A few days apart, he experienced two whippings, and in the past year, he had experienced many inhuman tortures, and he had been bitten to death until Ximen Jingxuan later lost his patience and only used one whipping to deal with him. But he was afraid that he would not be able to bear the constant whipping.
He was afraid that he would not be able to bear to tell Ximen Jingxuan the truth, and then he would lose her.
He was afraid that he would not be able to bear it and finally lose his breath, but he still failed to find the person she entrusted to him to find, and he still failed her.
So, the woman suddenly appeared and said that she was going to take him away, and he seemed to see the starlight.
He can only leave here and escape from Ximen Jingxuan, so that he can live up to her, and he has to find the person she entrusted him to find.
"Can't afford it?" Lin Xin'er also heard Zheng Xianlun's hard forbearance, "Why are you so consumed, can't you tell Ximen Jingxuan about the traces of Concubine Ru?" As a doctor who saves lives and helps the wounded, can you watch a son find his mother's heart, but you can't realize it? You're breaking up other people's mothers and sons. ”
"Huh." Jung Hyun-lun let out a hoarse laugh, which looked terrifying in the gloomy dungeon.
"Mother and son reunion? I also want to reunite their mother and son and make a good thing happen. Zheng Xianlun said, "However, Ximen Jingxuan can't realize this wish in this life." ”
"If the concubine is dead?" Lin Xin'er asked.
Zheng Xianlun glanced at Lin Xin'er, "If you want to know the truth, just wait until you rescue me, as long as I think I'm safe, I will tell you what I know." Now,"
Zheng Xianlun kept his mouth shut.
Lin Xin'er knew that he still suspected that she was sent by Ximen Jingxuan, who changed her tricks and wanted to talk to him.
"Okay, as you wish, I saved you, you tell me the truth, and you also have to treat people." Lin Xin'er said.
Looking at the other end of the dark passage, Lin Xin'er asked, "Do you know where this secret passage leads?" ”
Zheng Xianlun shook his head.
Lin Xin'er didn't ask any more questions, holding a torch in her hand, and walked in that direction, she planned to find out the situation of the secret passage, and if there was an accident at that time, it would be easy to deal with it.
