Chapter 445: Escape on a Rainy Night

"Chase!"

I don't know who said it, the people around the outside chased out, and the person who took the lead was the snake elder, and the little green snake in his sleeve had already rushed into the mountains and forests one step earlier, and chased after Hou Yong left.

Ripples just stood at the door of the broken temple and watched the excitement, and had no intention of participating, and when the people were hulala away, Wang Yaozu poked his head out and asked in a low voice:

"Why don't you chase after it, it's a treasure map!"

"Even if that treasure map is real, it can't be compared to you, and besides, we signed a contract, your safety is the first priority, what if I leave and you are attacked.

You mean, you want me to chase me out?"

Ripple asked rhetorically.

"Of course not, I just felt curious and asked casually."

Wang Yaozu immediately said that his shoulder wounded by the arrow had not yet healed, and he could only feel safe by staying by Ripple's side.

Ripples had enough of the excitement, so he turned around and went back to the ruined temple.

"Go and pull out the potatoes and sweet potatoes, they should be cooked, let's add a supper."

Ripple commanded directly.

Wang Yaozu immediately took two branches, picked up the fire that had been extinguished, dug out the four black lumps that had turned into black charcoal, and then re-lit the fire, and then broke the potatoes and sweet potatoes with a light on fire.

The ripe potatoes and sweet potatoes were steaming hot, accompanied by a burst of sweet fragrance, which made Wang Yaozu's stomach gurgle.

Ripples didn't like sweets, picked potatoes, handed the sweet potatoes to Wang Zhenzhen, Wang Yaozu chose the sweet potatoes by himself, and began to eat them.

"I don't know if these people have caught up?"

Wang Yaozu ate a whole roasted sweet potato, filled his stomach, and then began to ask questions.

"There are snakes always there, I guess it should be fine."

Ripples added two pieces of firewood to the fire, and the night in the mountains and forests was still a little wet and cold.

Suddenly, a bright light flashed in the sky overhead, and then the "rumbling" thunder reached the ears of the three people.

Wang Yaozu stood up directly, without breaking the temple door, he looked up directly at the night sky, and at this time, another lightning appeared in the night sky, and he immediately said to Ripple:

"Woman, it's going to rain!"

Less than half a column of incense after the lightning and thunder, the raindrops began to fall.

Wang Yaozu and Ripple had already moved the fire and carriage to the other side with a roof to cover it, and then easily changed the other fires.

"It's really unfortunate that this rain is falling, and it looks like they're going to be in vain tonight."

Wang Zhenzhen looked at the rain outside the ruined temple and said to the ripples.

"It's none of our business anyway."

Ripple said nonchalantly.

"Actually, I'd like to see the treasure map."

Wang Zhenzhen said thoughtfully.

Ripple didn't expect Aunt Zhen to want to see the treasure map, so she directly transmitted the voice into the secret and asked:

"Aunt Zhen, the wealth that belongs to you and your mother is really drawn into a treasure map?"

"Your grandmother has always kept the wealth that belongs to me for me, and as for your mother's, because she is married, everything has been handed over to her, and as for how she uses it, your grandmother has never interfered.

When I arrived a step late, I only found you who broke my heart, and I didn't find anything else, the entire Yingze Villa was burned, and only Princess Xiangyi's people passed by me.

I suspect they may have known about your mother's legacy in the first place, but there must have been some reason why they couldn't get it, which is why it took so long.

As we left the palace, what we saw and heard along the way was a sign that there would be a war in the near future, and the wealth left behind by your mother would naturally tempt some people.

Only those who have a heart will flow out the so-called treasure map, after all, there is a picture without a token or there is a token without a map, and it is impossible to obtain that wealth smoothly.

In doing so, they are forcing two things to show up, so that they can achieve the ultimate goal. ”

After all, Wang Zhenzhen knows more, so she thinks more.

"Aunt Zhen, now the royal family, the rivers and lakes, the Wang family, and those who regard the Wang family, the imperial businessman, as a thorn in their side, I am afraid that they are all involved in this matter, and they must all be secretly fueling the troubles, if you want to solve these problems smoothly, I am afraid it is not so simple."

Ripples also spread into the secret passage.

"Yes! For the sake of your grandmother, I decided to go down the mountain, plus you have grown up, you always have to recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors, the Xu family is gone, but you are still the granddaughter of the Wang family, you always have to go back, now I just hope you have a psychological preparation. ”

"Aunt Zhen, don't worry, I know it in my heart."

Ripple nodded hurriedly.

Half an hour later, the rain gradually became lighter, and the group of people who chased out the rivers and lakes were all drenched in soup and returned to the broken temple one after another.

"Damn, it's really not the right time for this rain to let those three people escape under our noses!"

Xiong Zigeng complained loudly.

The old snake followed, and his face was not very good, because the rain had washed away the smell, and his little green snake could not follow him.

Xiao Shu escorted Wang Meimei into the broken temple, so he asked her to hurry up and change her clothes, while he himself found a fire and sat down and began to bake clothes.

Because of Ripple's foresight, this group of soup chickens finally had a place to roast, and everyone thanked the three of them.

"You're welcome! I want to protect my wife, so it's inconvenient to chase me out, I wonder if those three people have left any clues? ”

"There was nothing left, because there were snakes and there were still traces, so we fell behind the three of them, and then when it rained, their footprints were washed away, and it was even more difficult to track, and the rain was too heavy, we were afraid of being scattered, so we had to come back first."

This time the reply was Xiao Shu.

"That's a shame, these three are so cunning."

Ripple sighed.

"It is indeed cunning, they are ready to get rid of the tracking here, and they actually prepared horses in the mountains and forests, and we have completely lost them."

Zhang Nian also agreed.

"It seems that they had long expected that they would confront the people of Broken Sword Mountain, so they left a back hand here, no wonder they ran towards us, but they didn't expect to meet us."

Ripple immediately chimed in.

Others also complained while roasting the fire, and actually passed by the treasure map, which was really uncomfortable.

"Hmph, even if they run away, they won't survive tonight."

The snake elder said coldly.

"Old Snake, did you keep your hands behind?"

"When the three of them appeared, they were bitten by my Xiaoqing, if they don't want to die, they will come back tomorrow."

Snake Elder said a little proudly.

"Otherwise, you have to ask the snake to make a move, the seniors in the rivers and lakes are the seniors, and Xiong has been taught."

As soon as Xiong Zigeng heard that the treasure map had hope of being recovered, his eyes immediately lit up, and he first complimented the snake elder.

After hearing this, everyone's faces also improved a lot.

Wang Meimei had already borrowed the ripples' carriage, changed into clothes, and when she came out to sit by the fire, she was stuffed with a baked potato by the ripples.

"Thank you Ripples! I'm so hungry! ”

Wang Meimei immediately broke the potatoes, gave half of them to his brother Xiao, and ate the other half by herself. (End of chapter)
