Chapter 220: Zhouzi's Secret Book
Zou Chong's hairs stood on end: "What are you going to do!" β
Qiu Ying's fingertips loosened, and the dagger in his hand fell on his leg: "There is a boulder on the top of the mountain, it will fall in half a moment, if you move faster, you can also cut the rope and rescue your wife." β
Zou Chong picked up the knife, only to find that the knife edge was not open.
He didn't dare to delay for a moment, and took a knife to cut the rope on his foot.
His hands were tied, and with all his strength, the eight-strand hemp rope was cut in half.
At this moment, the rubble fell in a torrent, and a huge boulder the size of a jar appeared on the top of the mountain, and as it rolled down, the grass and trees were broken.
Qin Xiang was so anxious that she called: "Lang Jun, save me, save me!" β
Zou Chong didn't look up, his hands kept moving, desperately cutting the rope.
Qin Xiang's pale face was pitiful: "Lang Jun-"
The boulder is getting closer.
"Lang-junβI'm afraidβ" she begged.
The stone fell to the ground with a thud and rolled straight towards the two of them.
As soon as the rope broke, Zou Chong immediately broke free, and when he ran past Qin Xiang, he didn't even stop for a moment.
Qin Xiang watched him pass in front of her, and watched him walk away, until she was hit by a falling boulder, and her flesh and blood were blurred......
Zou Chong ran all the way to the distance before he dared to stop and look back at the cliff.
On the edge of the cliff, only traces of stones were left, and a pool of blood was faintly oozing from the wood chips.
He stroked his chest with palpitations: If Fang Cai doesn't do that, no one will be able to live, Qin Xiang, you can't complain about me, it's all the woman's harm!
Zou Chong untied the bracelet and walked away with a wistful expression, wondering in his heart how to explain to his father-in-law later.
The horse's hooves sounded in front of him, and Zou Chong's face was happy, and he was about to step forward and borrow a way. The next moment, his heart sank to the bottom.
Lord Yuan rode his horse, and after seeing the bloodstains on the edge of the cliff, he held the reins of his horse, rushed to Zou Chong, and raised his hand to slap a few times!
Zou Chong was stunned: "Father-in-law? β
"I married my beloved daughter to such a bastard thing as you!" Yuan Sheng scolded angrily, and raised his voice to order, "The criminal minister Zou Chong, adulterous Qinglou prostitute, poisoned his wife Yuan, and put this official in prison!" β
Zou Chong's eyes widened, and he forgot to react for a while, he has always kept things with prostitutes secret, how could he leak the news?
"Qin Xiang didn't kill me, I hope my father-in-law will see it!" He hurriedly explained.
Yuan Sheng looked at him coldly, he knew that Zou Chong didn't have the guts, but Qin'er was harmed by him, this person didn't die, and it was difficult to vent the hatred in his heart.
Today's market is full of people, as if a prisoner has been executed.
Liu Ruyan had just returned from the mansion, and when she passed by the vegetable market, she looked around and was careful to avoid people.
When she glanced at it, a red dress was crossing the corner of her eye, and she looked back to see some unfamiliar faces.
Liu Ruyan held her gaze and continued to walk, and when she bypassed the market, a girl in red stopped her.
Qiu Ying strode forward, a pair of apricot eyes fell on her, and she curled her lips and said, "You gave me a robe that day, and I can't take your things for nothing." β
As she spoke, she hooked out a bag of money from her fingertips and threw it at Liu Ruyan.
Liu Ruyan checked her purse, but she didn't push it back, and she took it back into her arms: "You're polite." β
Qiu Maki smiled, turned around and left.
"Autumn girlβ" Liu Ruyan suddenly called.
Qiu Ying's footsteps paused, looking back.
Liu Ruyan stared at her: "Miss Qiu is from Jinling?" β
Qiu Ying lowered his face coldly: "Why do you say this." β
Liu Ruyan spoke: "Before, in the wine shop, you pretended to be drunk and deliberately attracted a bunch of bastards. The next day, a headless male corpse appeared by the river, and I went to the yamen to confess that it was the young man who made trouble that night. Miss Qiu carefully planned, presumably, she had some grudge with that person. β
If the autumn noodles were covered with snow, he said coldly: "Don't think that if you are a little smart, you can blackmail the old lady." β
Liu Ruyan shook her head and said frankly: "The deceased has something to do with the palace, and the yamen has reported to Dali Temple to start investigating the case, and I hope that Miss Qiu will take care." β
With that, she crossed her hands and passed by the girl who was stunned.
"The plot character Qiu Ying, with a loyalty value of 60, has been classified into our camp."
Return to the inn.
Liu Ruyan saw that Bai Zhi and the others changed into Mao Qiu Dayu, dressed neatly, and looked like they were going out to meet guests.
"Where are you going?" She was surprised.
Bai Zhi said with a smile: "Thanks to the help of the lord of the country, Brother Jin just contacted his relatives, no, he asked us to go to the restaurant to get together." β
Liu Ruyan wondered: "People are reunited, what are you going to do to join in the fun." β
Dong Qingxian leaned over, and then said: "Today is the Buddha Festival Laba Festival, the people in the city will go to the river to pray for blessings, so the restaurant is on the bank of the Qinhuai River, it is better to go and have a look." β
She suddenly realized that it was no wonder that when she was on the street, every household posted a door god.
Liu Ruyan rolled her eyes and asked Shen Yanchu: "You also follow?" β
The man stood by the window, and when he heard this, he politely refused: "I have to watch the emptiness, lest he take advantage of the weakness to escape." β
She thought about it, too, that the house had to be guarded.
"That being the case, Yan Chu and I stayed." She said.
Everyone went out one after another, and Gong Yuyu was still a little sorry before leaving: "Xiaobing, if you have anything to eat, I'll give you a little bit back." β
Liu Ruyan didn't pick her mouth, she sat down leisurely, and put her hands in her sleeves: "You can do whatever you want." β
"Okay-" Gong Yuyu exited, closing the door.
Now only Shen Yanchu and Liu Ruyan were left in the room, and she sat next to the desk, looking through the seals as usual.
The nine jade seals are all engraved with small seals, which seem to be unrelated, but in fact, they hide mysteries.
She rearranged the inscriptions engraved at the bottom of the chapter to create a map.
Ports, islands, bridges, and other objects can be seen in the picture.
But this picture is thousands of years old, if it is said that back then, the eight sages of Penglai engraved the entrance of the secret realm at the bottom of the chapter, only this rubbing, it is still far from enough.
She remembered that Wangfeng Tower still had a map of Kyushu thousands of years ago in her hand, and it seemed that these people were determined to obtain the secret realm.
It's getting dark.
Shen Yanchu went to the opposite guest room to check the emptiness, Liu Ruyan sat alone for a while, got up and poured tea.
She drank the tea in the cup, and when her eyes glanced at the Xuankun seal, she couldn't help but be stunned.
The room had not yet been lit, but a few steps away, the jade seal emitted a faint light.
She came to the desk and examined the jade in front of her again.
The jade is transparent, warm and square, and a little light seeps out of the jade body, which is as bright as the stars.
She hurriedly took a pen and paper and wrote down the dots of light.
When she put down the pen, Liu Ruyan picked up the paper and walked to the window.
Outside the window, the lights are on, and the sky is full of stars.
She lifted her eyes from the paper and looked out into the vast sky.
It turned out to be an astrological chart!
Now, the earth and astronomy have been solved, and the secret realm of Penglai has finally resurfaced.
When Shen Yan first entered the house, he saw her standing by the window and distracted.
He lit the candle and listened to her speak: "For thousands of years, mortals have gone into the sea to seek immortals, looking for the legendary Penglai Secret Realm. β
Liu Ruyan turned her face, and a candle flame was reflected in her eyes: "This is the secret book of HNA back then." β
Shen Yanchu looked at the pile of paper in her hand.
"And put it away, this matter should not be publicized." He instructed.
Liu Ruyan shook his head.
