Chapter 32: The Beginning of the Conspiracy
Nameless: "We've searched for this large area, but we haven't found a cave where we can hide, could it be that we are thinking wrong?" β
Song Jiyun: "No, it can only be that the entrance is hidden in a house." β
Momo: "You mean, there's a mechanism in the room?" β
Song Jiyun: "That's right. β
Nameless: "But, there are so many rooms, which one are we going to look for, we can't go to find them all, right?" β
Song Jiyun: "Of course not! β
Momo: "Mofei, you already know which house it is?" β
Song Jiyun: "Yes. β
Nameless and Momo looked at each other, they really didn't know what important information they had missed, so they were still confused.
Song Jiyun: "Don't you think the owner of that inn and the shopkeeper are a little strange?" β
Momo: "What's strange?" β
Nameless: "You mean, the innkeeper and the shopkeeper are the real culprits behind this incident?" β
Song Jiyun: "You can also say that, but I'm afraid, things are not as simple as we imagined, there must be some huge conspiracy hidden behind this, and this place is just one of their contact points." β
Momo: "You have a point. β
At this time, the three of them had returned to the inn, which was brightly lit.
Song Jiyun: "I have long felt that something is wrong here, even the lights are brighter than other places, and they seem to be guiding something." β
Nameless: "It must be the person behind who wants to lead us away, in that case, why don't we take advantage of the situation?" β
Song Jiyun: "That's what I mean. β
Momo: "Let's go to the innkeeper's room, I think we'll find the answers we need." β
The three of them had already come to the door of the innkeeper while talking, but as soon as they arrived at the door, they had already noticed that there seemed to be a pair of eyes staring at them behind them, in order not to startle the snake, the three of them did not show that they had found the person who was following them, or according to what they said before, they walked into the boss's room, and the strange thing was that the boss's room turned out to be pitch black.
Song Jiyun: "Did you bring a fire excerpt?" β
Nameless: "Here, I just got it from the room." β
Song Jiyun lit the candle, and the whole room lit up instantly.
Each of the three men had a candle in their hands and looked around the room.
Momo: "It's really strange, there is not even a single calligraphy and painting in this boss's room, and there is no bookcase, but there is a bookcase, and there are only a few books." β
Nameless: "I didn't find anything here. β
Momo: "I'm here too. β
Song Jiyun: "It's the same. β
Nameless: "Are we thinking wrong?" β
Song Jiyun: "No, we are not wrong, the entrance must be here!" β
Momo: "However, we have searched a few times, but we still haven't found anything. β
Song Jiyun looked around, and his head seemed to be running rapidly.
Nameless sat on the bed: "Hey, it's been a day of tossing, and I haven't had a good rest, and I'm trapped to death." β
Song Jiyun suddenly thought of something: "What did you say?" β
Nameless: "Huh? β
Song Jiyun: "Say what you just said again!" β
Nameless was taken aback by Song Jiyun: "No, not really, I'm just yawning." β
Song Jiyun: "I said to repeat what you just said." β
Momo seemed to understand what Song Jiyun meant: "He just said that he hasn't been able to sleep well after tossing for a day. β
Nameless: "Uh......"
Song Jiyun stared at the bed where Nameless was sitting, and Nameless looked at him and immediately stood up.
Nameless: "You mean ......"
Song Jiyun walked over, lifted the futon, tapped it with his fingers, and the sound reached his ears, and the three of them immediately understood.
I found it, and the entrance was under the bed, but I hadn't found a mechanism to open it.
Nameless: "Found it." β
Momo: "But, where is the mechanism?" β
Song Jiyun looked around again, until his gaze fell on the bed again, he touched the edge of the bed and the wall, there was no mechanism to open the entrance.
Song Jiyun: If it were me and set the entrance under my bed, then the mechanism must be nearby, otherwise it would be too inconvenient.
Thinking about it, he learned from the innkeeper to lie down and sleep as usual, and lay down like this.
Nameless: "Why are you lying down?" β
As soon as the words fell, he stepped on the place in front of the bed, and as a result, he fell from it, and this time he was caught off guard, he fell not lightly, and then it was Momo and Song Jiyun who jumped down.
Nameless: "Ouch, it hurts me!" β
Momo: "Shhhh β
Nameless silence, but he really hurts.
Song Jiyun whispered: "Everyone be careful, the passage here is narrow, if someone rushes out, we can't show it, if we can avoid it, it's important to find everyone." β
Momo and Nameless said they understood, and the three of them continued to walk inside.
Song Jiyun: This place is different from the previous dark realm, it gives people a different feeling, the stone wall is not so cold, but the passage is very narrow, if we really want to move, we don't have an advantage. The paths here are intricate, the stone walls are so thick that you can barely hear any sound, and it is even more terrifying than in the previous darkness. If it weren't for some shady deed, this kind of place wouldn't have been built, and the people behind it were also doing live experiments? Such a vicious method is inhumane, and it is really embarrassing that someone would go out of their way to build such an extremely complex dungeon for this purpose!
Momo: When did this road come to an end? It's so long.
The three of them walked forward for about an hour, and did not find anything suspicious.
Nameless: "Did we go wrong?" β
Song Jiyun: "Probably not, from the entrance to here, only this road is the smoothest, we can't go wrong." β
Momo: "I have a hunch that it's coming soon. β
Song Jiyun: "Everyone should be vigilant. β
If there are really a few people, they don't have a sword in their hands, so they can only resist with their bare hands, Song Jiyun still has Fengyun in his hand, it shouldn't be too miserable, unless the other side is a master, otherwise, they can't be defeated.
Momo: I don't know what happened to this guy Chuan Xingyi?
Lin Yue'er recovered her six successful powers, and the red feather here was almost unable to resist, she remembered this kind of monster, she had seen it in the Dark Night Pavilion before, this was a monster there that was not as crazy as here, and this power was too great, she was about to be unable to resist.
Red Feather: There's no way the master is here, so it's the only thing to do, Miss.
Lin Yue'er used her Snow Palm to repel the monster, and Red Feather could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Lin Yue'er held Hong Yu: "Sister Red Feather, are you okay?" β
Red Feather: "Don't worry, I'm not hurt, I just spent some energy." β
Lin Yue'er: "Hmm. β
Hong Yu calmed down and tried to regulate her internal strength, she remembered what happened many years ago, at that time, the old owner was still there, and her martial arts had not yet reached this level, Liu Yimian was still a teenager, and the eldest lady was also a gentle beauty, all of which had to start after the death of the old owner.
When the old owner passed away, he passed the position of pavilion master to Liu Yimian, and hoped that the Dark Night Pavilion could move towards a better tomorrow under the leadership of Liu Yimian. However, at that moment, an unexpected thing suddenly happened, that is, the eldest lady, Liu Yimian's sister, Liu Yiqing, brought back a stranger from outside, and this person was seriously injured when he came to the villa, so Liu Yimian left him in the villa to recuperate. It's just that this matter has also become one of Liu Yimian's most regretful things, after half a year, that person's injury has completely healed, but the biggest change is Liu Yiqing, she is no longer the gentle and lovely eldest lady before, but began to abuse her power to do something hurtful, without Liu Yimian knowing, she killed a lot of people through her own means, how many of them died unjustly, you can imagine. Just when Liu Yimian went to Liu Yiqing to ask about this matter, that person showed a chilling smile, at that time, Liu Yimian knew that her sister was used by that person, but Liu Yiqing didn't listen to Liu Yimian's advice at all, and still treated the stranger as a guest. Without Liu Yiqing knowing, Liu Yimian had seen that person in private, but that person did not hide his intentions at all, and after Liu Yimian failed to drive him away several times, he realized that what he did was not taken into account at all. It wasn't until that person instigated Liu Yiqing to kill her fiancΓ© that Liu Yimian finally made up her mind that this person must die. However, he has never succeeded, not only that, but the relationship between him and his sister has also taken a sharp turn for the worse, what chills him is that his sister actually killed his father's friend, that is, the teacher who taught them erudition since childhood, which completely touched Liu Yimian's bottom line, this time, he and his sister completely tore their faces. Liu Yiqing was locked up in the back mountain courtyard by Liu Yimian. However, it didn't trap her at all, she still did whatever she wanted, and there was that hateful person by her side. Liu Yiqing's biggest bottom line should be that she will not hurt her only relative in this world.
Later, I don't know what means that person used to become a national teacher, and now, the wind direction of the whole country has changed. When the emperor died, he was only twenty years old, and his younger brother regent supported the emperor's only youngest son to ascend the throne, who was only three years old. Liu Yimian knew that all this was a conspiracy of the national teacher, but he didn't know how much Liu Yiqing was involved in these things? Until news came from the palace that the first queen was defiled by the emperor's younger brother and then hanged herself unsuccessfully. The mad regent took his sister-in-law for himself, didn't let her live or die, and sent someone to build chains to lock the queen in Zihua Palace, and fished day and night. Three months later, the imperial doctor checked the pulse, the queen was pregnant for three months, the queen committed suicide many times, without success, for her to die is the best result, she has long been unbearable to live in this life, every time she faces the mad regent, she longs to drink his blood, eat his flesh, gnaw his bones. The mad regent told her that if she died, then his brother's son would not have to live, and that he would reunite their family of three, but that he would strip him and hang him on the wall. No matter how heart-rending the queen roared "brute", he just laughed.
Later, the queen gave birth to her and the son of the regent, and the regent felt that the puppet was in the way, so he wanted to poison the son of the former emperor, but fortunately Liu Yimian rescued it, and found a similar corpse to burn, and everyone knew that the son of the former emperor died of illness due to a stubborn illness. Then the madman regent ascended the throne and became the new emperor, that is, the current emperor of Nanhua Kingdom, the queen is still the queen, but the title is changed to Empress Shining. There is only one lady in the harem, and that is the queen's mother. The most in her palace are guards and maids, because she is afraid of her death, afraid of her begging for death, afraid of her escaping, so every day the emperor is only absent from the court, and the rest of the time is in the queen's palace. The world doesn't know it, but they all praise the emperor's love for the queen, and only those who know the truth understand the real reason.
All of this, of course, is indispensable to the national teacher who gave advice.
Lin Yue'er: "Sister Red Feather, Sister Red Feather." β
Red Feather: "Huh? β
Lin Yue'er: "How are you?" β
Red Feather: "I'm almost recovered. β
Lin Yue'er: "What kind of place is this?" β
Red Feather: "I don't know. β
Lin Yue'er: "Xiao Jiu doesn't know what's going on, and I don't know what time it is?" β
Red Feather: "Although we don't know any of this, I think Song Jiyun will come to us." β
Lin Yue'er: "By the way, Sister Hongyu, where did you go, why were you also arrested?" β
Red Feather: "Coincidentally, I was just walking on the road, and on the way back to the inn to find you, I lost consciousness inexplicably, and I woke up and was here." β
Lin Yue'er: "Me and Xiao Jiu too, but we should be together, why is Xiao Jiu not here?" β
Red Feather: "It's so dark here, we can't see anything, it's inconvenient for us to move." β
Lin Yue'er: "You're right. β
Red Feather: "It's just a monster here, I seem to have seen it in some book." β
Lin Yue'er: "Really? β
Red Feather: "Well, you also saw it just now, their eyes, their strength, and their wheezing sound are all different from ordinary people. β
Lin Yue'er: "Indeed, I have noticed what you said, but what are these?" β
Red Feather: "Medicine Man." β
Lin Yue'er: "Medicine man? β
Red Feather: "Well, it's to refine the medicine and test on the living, if the living person is not dead, but will produce great power and can be manipulated, it will be used by people, but this is inhumane." β
Lin Yue'er: "What do these people want to do so many medicine people?" β
Red Feather: yes, what the hell are they trying to do? Does the Pavilion Master know?
Lin Yue'er: "By the way, Sister Hongyu, do you remember the owner of the inn and the shopkeeper?" β
Sister Hongyu: "I probably have some impressions. β
Lin Yue'er: "I heard their voices just now. β
Red Feather: "What do you mean ......?"
Lin Yue'er: "I suspect that they are the masterminds behind the scenes, or just a few substitute ghosts on the surface!" β
Lin Yue'er is extremely smart, and when she was a child, she learned the exercises very quickly, and when she got to the rivers and lakes, even if she didn't have Song Jiyun and Luo Ran by her side, she could be on her own.
Red Feather: "I think you have a point. β
Lin Yue'er: "This place is close to the border, and the opposite side of the sea is Nanhua Country, so the most suspicious is Nanhua Country." β
There was a waking man in the darkness who had been listening to their conversation, but they hadn't noticed it yet.
Lin Yue'er: "I don't know how many such monsters there are in this cell, let alone how many such cells there are outside, everything is unknown, it's uncertain, and Xiao Jiu." β
Lin Yue'er: Xiao Jiu, you must not have any problems.
Song Jiyun is still looking for it, but there are no clues.
Momo: "The more you go inside, the more spacious it feels. β
Nameless: "Aren't we almost there?" β
Song Jiyun: "Shhh β
Nameless: "What did you find?" β
Song Jiyun: "There is a sound of breathing, you listen." β
The three of them were silent, listened carefully, and sure enough, they heard the sound of weak breathing. It's just that the sound of this breathing is not getting stronger and stronger, but getting weaker and weaker, until the sound disappears, and there is no sound at all.
Momo: "No. β
Nameless: "Did you go far?" β
Song Jiyun replied: "No. β
Mo Mo and Nameless looked in the direction of Song Jiyun's squatting body, and they saw a person, a corpse to be exact, and it was still warm, and he just swallowed his breath.
Song Jiyun checked it and found nothing useful.
Momo: "The fact that this person is here means that we are not wrong. β
Nameless: "This man is so weak that he can't go far, he must not be far from the real entrance." β
Song Jiyun: "Well, everyone be vigilant, this time, I'm afraid we are going to have a hard fight." β
Nameless: "Understood. β
Momo: "Don't worry, I'll try not to hold you back." β
Song Jiyun: "Yes. β
South Flower Country, Mountain Villa.
Lan Yu stood there and whispered something to Liu Yimian, and Liu Yimian's expression changed: "I know, you go down first." β
Blue Feather: "Yes." β
Liu Yimian walked over and smiled: "Xiaoyuan, how about we play a game?" β
I haven't heard a "Xiaoyuan" for a long time, and Song Yuandao didn't hesitate, so he agreed. He knew that Liu Yimian must have something to hide from him, he must find an opportunity, it is best to find out the whereabouts of Song Jiyun and several of them, this is the most important thing, after all, that person, but there can be no accidents!
Lan Yu, who is also a subordinate of the Dark Night Pavilion, is one of Liu Yimian's cronies, always wearing a blue dress, with a graceful demeanor, excellent swordsmanship, and a person who will judge the situation and follow him all his life if he is loyal to one person.
Liu Yimian: "Hey, after so many years, I still can't get you." β
Song Yuan said: "Your heart is not here. β
Liu Yimian: "Yes, I can't hide anything, I can't escape your eyes, you can see through me at a glance." β
Song Yuandao: "If you want to speak, I am willing to listen." β
Liu Yimian smiled, it was the kind of smile that did not have a bit of edge, but naturally flowed, and relaxed and arbitrary: "Ah Yuan, you still like to trick me as before, but this time, I can't say that you will know about this matter in the future, but not now." β
