Chapter 69, Gunpowder is buried

"Boom!"

Sui Hong kicked open the door of the elegant room and quickly headed towards the man in black.

"Who are you?!"

The man in black had a calm and restrained face, and when he saw someone breaking in, he immediately shouted gloomily.

Sui Hong snorted and didn't answer, and started directly.

Bai Qiurui took advantage of this time and ran directly in front of Shen Yuan: "Shen Yuan, how are you?" ”

At this moment, Shen Yuan's whole body was weak, he was closing his eyes to recuperate, and he only opened his eyes after there was movement in the room.

The first thing he saw was Sui Hong, and then when he found the little woman running in after him, her expression was in a trance for a moment.

The little woman greeted the light, and the whole person ran into the house surrounded by the light, giving him a hazy feeling of unreality.

He saw that the other party was wearing the camouflage clothes of the Taoist people, but he still couldn't hide her outstanding appearance.

It wasn't until Bai Qiurui stretched out his hand and shook his shoulder that Shen Yuan came back to his senses, and he saw the little woman's frowning brow at a glance, and asked him with concern how he was now.

"I didn't ...... It's okay. ”

Shen Yuan moved his dry throat and spoke in a dumb voice.

Seeing this, Bai Qiurui immediately said, "Can you stand up and walk around?" ”

Shen Yuan tried to move his stiff hand, and finally shook his head helplessly: "I was drugged, and now my whole body is weak." ”

Sui Hong on the side was fighting with the man in black, two fists and feet striking, you come and go.

Seeing that Bai Qiurui was already standing beside Shen Yuan, he couldn't take down Sui Hong for a while.

The man in black dodged Sui Hong's flying kick and dodged the door of the private room after turning around.

Seeing this, Sui Hong immediately caught up, she would not give the other party a chance to escape.

Besides, once the man escaped, the guards in the entire temple would find out that they had broken in.

At that time, if you want to get out of the way, it will be difficult.

However, just as Sui Hong was about to reach out and grab the man, he saw the other party suddenly turn around and flick his finger towards the screen on the other side of the room.

A tiny flash of white light flashed, and a stone struck into a recessed mechanism on the screen with unmistakable accuracy.

"Click-"

There was a crisp sound, and before Bai Qiurui could react, she saw that where she and Shen Yuan were, the bluestone slab under her feet suddenly collapsed.

Bai Qiurui's eyes widened in horror, only to feel that her body shook, and the feeling of weightlessness hit.

She only had time to exclaim, and then her whole eyes went black, and her body quickly fell.

In the flash of light, she didn't even have time to grab Shen Yuan's hand, and she instantly fell into the secret passage of the private room.

For the fear of the unknown, people will always instinctively be afraid.

Bai Qiurui felt that after falling into the secret passage, her body was constantly sliding down a slope.

In a panic, she tried to grasp everything around her, however, she didn't know what was under her, she reached out and touched it several times, but there was nothing to grasp.

I couldn't touch anything, my body was still sliding, and every second in the darkness seemed so long in Bai Qiurui's perception.

Then, she heard some noise next to her, and then a hand suddenly grabbed her waist.

The crisp aura enveloped her, and Bai Qiurui sensed that it was Shen Yuan in an instant.

She subconsciously hugged the other party, probably because Shen Yuan was drugged, Bai Qiurui could feel that he seemed to be struggling.

This made her hug her tighter and tighter, clasping Shen Yuan's waist tightly, and never letting go.

Then, the downward momentum of the two stopped, and Bai Qiurui only felt as if her body had hit something, and her calf was hit with pain.

Holding Shen Yuan and rolling on the ground several times, the momentum of the two of them finally stopped, and it seemed that they had reached the bottom of the secret passage.

This time it was a coincidence or not, Bai Qiurui once again pressed firmly on Shen Yuan.

She read that Shen Yuan's body was drugged, and her hands and feet were weak, and she immediately got up from Shen Yuan after she stopped rolling.

"Shen Yuan, you, are you okay?!"

Bai Qiurui knelt on the ground and helped Shen Yuan to sit up in the dark.

In the dark, she only heard Shen Yuan cough violently twice, and his voice was quite weak.

After a long time, she heard the man whisper back, "It's okay." ”

At this moment, in a strange place where they couldn't see their fingers, Bai Qiurui and Shen Yuan didn't move for a while, sitting on the ground together and gasping.

Bai Qiurui only felt that her heart was beating very fast, and she couldn't react in her head, panting vigorously.

She ran along her thighs, slowly touching the places where her calves had hit during the rolling, and slowly rubbed them up.

I don't know what it is, but now it hurts when I rub my calf, Bai Qiurui guesses that it must be bruised.

"How did you get here?"

I don't know how long it took, Bai Qiurui heard Shen Yuan beside her speak in a low voice.

She paused for a moment, and then said, "I heard Sister Sui say that you didn't go to Ziyang Temple in the Criminal Department today, and you came to see Meng Beihe on purpose. ”

Bai Qiurui opened her mouth lightly, and then whispered: "I don't worry, I always feel that there may be danger, so I came over with Sister Sui." ”

It turned out that there was danger, and it was also true that she didn't help and fell into the secret passage with someone......

Bai Qiurui thought about it, and felt a little crying without tears in her heart, did she come to help?

silently scolded herself for being useless in her heart, and Bai Qiurui realized that after she replied to Shen Yuan's question, the other party never spoke again.

She blinked, wondering if she should say something.

Unbeknownst to him, as soon as the thought in his heart rose, Shen Yuan suddenly asked a sentence without a beginning or an end.

"Aren't you afraid?"

Bai Qiurui didn't think about it, and blurted out: "I'm afraid!" But I'm still coming! ”

After saying that, she herself was a little dazed. So, before Shen Yuan could speak, she quickly added.

"Don't ask me why, because ...... I don't know myself. ”

After saying a word, the atmosphere fell silent again. After staying in a dark place for a long time, Bai Qiurui's eyes can gradually adapt to the dark environment.

She turned her head to look around, and she could already faintly see the outline of some space.

Retracting her gaze, Bai Qiurui could already clearly see Shen Yuan beside her, sitting on the ground like her. It's just that the environment is too dark, and she can't see the other party's expression clearly.

Thinking about whether to stand up and look around, Bai Qiurui felt Shen Yuan beside him raise his hand.

Then there was a sound of rustling, and she felt that Shen Yuan had stuffed something into her hand.

"Fire fold, open."

Shen Yuan spoke lightly, Bai Qiurui understood, and immediately responded.

This man still has a fire fold with him?

What is this operation......

Is it also an occupational disease?

Also, since there is a fire fold, why didn't you take it out earlier.

Bai Qiurui quietly touched her nose, and then lit up a cluster of firelight according to the method of using the fire fold in her memory.

The warm light illuminated everything around her, and at this time, Bai Qiurui saw clearly that she was in a place similar to an underground cave.

These four sides are full of irregular stones, which seem to have been cut out by hand, but they are not very demanding when they were built, so the angles of these edges are not smooth.

After a cursory glance, Bai Qiurui redirected her gaze back to Shen Yuan beside her.

I saw that Shen Yuan at this moment was no longer the cold and natural demeanor of the past, his cold eyebrows were furrowed, and his face was unusually silent.

After thinking for a while, Bai Qiurui took the lead in getting up, and then reached out to help Shen Yuan.

The man seemed to be thinking about something at the moment, his dark eyes stared at the air, and it wasn't until Bai Qiurui stretched out his hand in front of him that Shen Yuan came back to his senses.

He looked at the white and delicate palm in front of him for a moment, and then stretched out his left hand.

Bai Qiurui held the fire fold in one hand and exerted force with the other.

Fortunately, Shen Yuan's figure was not heavy, and with a little exertion of Bai Qiurui, he had already used his strength to stand up.

When Shen Yuan stood up, Bai Qiurui suddenly keenly noticed that the other party's right hand was vaguely strange, and he deliberately leaned behind him at the moment.

She was stunned for a moment, then looked sideways: "What's wrong with your right hand?" ”

Shen Yuan shook his head and said in a low voice: "I'm fine." ”

There's nothing to do!

Bai Qiurui didn't believe the man's lies at all, she looked at Shen Yuan suspiciously, and after a closer look, she was shocked that the other party's face was very pale.

At this moment, her heart jumped, and she pulled the man's right arm to the front: "Don't hide, let me see." ”

Shen Yuan didn't seem to want Bai Qiurui to see it, so he deliberately dodged.

However, Bai Qiurui didn't give up, and between the two of them, they heard that Shen Yuan seemed to have pulled the wound, and couldn't help but snort.

This time, Bai Qiurui became more serious, and directly pulled his right hand in front of him to check.

At this glance, she took a breath of cold air, and saw that Shen Yuan's right hand was already red, obviously injured.

It's no wonder she didn't notice it in time, the air in this secret passage is very turbid, and the smell is very strong.

There was always a rotting stench in the air, so she didn't notice that Shen Yuan was injured in the first place.

"Your hands are bleeding, what are you hiding?"

Bai Qiurui glared at the man angrily, and when she pulled the person to squat down and put the fire fold on the ground, she took out the neat and clean green bamboo brocade from her arms.

"Lift up your clothes, I'll help you bandage them."

Today, Shen Yuan wore a moon-white wide-sleeved brocade robe, and at this moment, a ball of blood red was printed on the white sleeves, which looked extremely dazzling.

This wound must not be shallow, it must have been scratched when it fell.

Bai Qiurui remembered that her calf had also been hit by something, but Shen Yuan was directly cut out of a wound.

Who knows, after Bai Qiurui offered to help Shen Yuan bandage, she was opposed by the man almost immediately.

"I'll do it myself."

Shen Yuan lowered his gaze, his dark eyes swept over his injured right arm, and he couldn't help but quickly withdraw the Jinpa from Bai Qiurui's hand.

"Hey......"

This situation made Bai Qiurui really unexpected, and before she had time to react, the Jinpa in her hand had already been taken away by the man.

"It's inconvenient for you to have an arm injury, I'll help you bandage it better."

Before the words fell, Shen Yuan ruthlessly refused: "No." ”

Spit out two words indifferently, Shen Yuan stood up and walked a few steps to the side after speaking, directly hiding himself in a half-dark and half-bright environment, and then silently lifted his sleeves.

Bai Qiurui was stunned for a moment when she saw this, she looked at Shen Yuan, who was a few steps away, dealing with the wound on her arm alone.

I don't know why, she always feels that figure is extremely lonely.

What is the secret on this man's right arm? Would you rather bandage yourself than let her see?

The description of Shen Yuan in the original book is only a short paragraph, and Bai Qiurui, who is now in the book, has a feeling of opening a blind box at this moment.

She found that the longer she spent with Shen Yuan, the more secrets there were in the man.

Shen Yuan's bandaging speed was very fast, and he didn't let Bai Qiurui wait a few minutes, he had already bandaged his wound and walked back again.

With such a skill, Bai Qiurui unconsciously looked at the fire fold in his hand.

Has this man been hurt a lot?

Even if he was injured in one hand, he was so skilled in bandaging. As the secretary of the criminal department, he actually carries a fire fold with him.

At this time, Bai Qiurui knew that she knew too little about Shen Yuan.

Seeing the man walk back, his complexion had returned to his previous appearance, and Bai Qiurui quickly took away his thoughts.

"You...... Is it really okay? ”

In the end, she couldn't help but ask more.

As soon as the words fell, Shen Yuan's dark eyes blinked lightly, and then he suddenly reached out and directly took the fire fold in Bai Qiurui's hand.

"Well, it's fine."

The cold and indifferent voice that belonged to the man came out, Bai Qiurui had no choice but to stop asking, and tacitly revealed the matter, but in her heart she wanted to find a way out as soon as possible.

Shen Yuan took the fire fold and looked around it.

After a moment, they came to the conclusion that in this strange underground cave they were in, there was only one way forward in front of them.

After thinking for a moment, Shen Yuan finally spoke: "Follow me closely and be careful around here." ”

Bai Qiurui answered, and then walked to the man's side.

I don't know if it's an illusion, Bai Qiurui at this moment found that the pressure around Shen Yuan's body was much less than when he bandaged his wounds before, and he became easier to approach again.

She relaxed, walked beside the man, and then asked him about his conversation with Meng Beihe.

"Today's Ziyang Temple, is Meng Beihe intentionally wanting to see you?"

"Well, I received his letter and came to the appointment."

Bai Qiurui remembered that Meng Beihe seemed to be going to do something, and Shen Yuan would stop him in every possible way, as if it was still a major matter to destroy the Nine Clans.

So, she followed Shen Yuan's steps and asked as she walked.

"I just heard Meng Beihe's words outside the door, what does he want to do?"

After Bai Qiurui finished speaking, she saw Shen Yuan's steps pause, and then the man turned his head to look at him.

Then, I heard the other party say with a complicated expression: "Do you remember the secret passage in the mountain behind Nanyue Temple." ”

Bai Qiurui nodded: "Remember." ”

Shen Yuan: "Do you remember the gunpowder in the coffin where we hid?" ”

Bai Qiurui: "Yes." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly noticed something flash through her mind.

Meng Beihe is the youngest son of Meng Changan, the commander of the Blue Dragon Army, and he is now the official secretary of the imperial court, and he prepared the gunpowder in the Nanyue Temple......

Before Bai Qiurui could grasp the key point in his mind, Shen Yuan spoke faintly.

"He buried a large amount of gunpowder in the place where he worshiped the sky in the purple sun."
