Section 30: Dangers lurking in forbidden areas (4)
"If you're uncomfortable, don't speak. Ling'er said distressedly, taking out a handkerchief to wipe the blood from the corner of Qi Yang's mouth.
Ji Cangyu was displeased when he saw this, and said with a cold face: "Since it's okay, let's continue to investigate!" After speaking, he turned around and left.
Xu Jun saw that Qi Yang was really fine, so he left helplessly.
And Zhong Long didn't know where to find a few torches to distribute to everyone, and then followed Ji Cangyu to the depths of the forbidden land with Zhao Xinghe and Liu Chuyuan.
Jiang Yu walked up to Qi Yang and arched his hand a little reservedly: "Thank you Shaoxia for saving your life, ...... How much to offend ......"
"It's just a gesture, and you don't have to worry about it. Qi Yang said with a smile.
Jiang Yu watched Qi Yang's ruddy face fade and become a little pale, secretly put this kindness in his heart, saluted Qi Yang, and went to chase Zhao Xinghe.
Qi Yang said to Zhong Gong: "Brother Zhong, you can take the girl with you! I will go to you after a while." ”
Zhong Gong nodded and said, "It's the only way to do it first." Then he looked at Ling'er and explained, "Ling'er, follow me!"
Ling'er was puzzled, and saw Zhong Gong pull Qi Yang on his back and carry Qi Yang on his back.
"Brother Zhong, what are you ......," Qi Yang said embarrassedly.
"You call me big brother, how can I leave you here alone? And even if I will, Ling'er won't agree. Zhong Gong smiled.
Qi Yang was helpless, since Zhong Gong refused to leave him, he could only let Zhong Gong work hard. The breath in his body was scurrying, and he really couldn't walk at this time.
Ling'er looked at Qi Yang's weakly hanging right hand and frowned.

Ji Cangyu took everyone around the forbidden land, but didn't find anything special. So, everyone went to the pavilion on the north side of the forbidden land, which everyone thought was strange.
The pavilion had been seen from a distance when they had passed by, and there was a path to the north that led directly to it.
By the time everyone reached the front of the pavilion, it was completely dark.
This is an octagonal pavilion, which looks very new, and it seems that it has only been built in the past few years, and it has not experienced much baptism of storms.
Zhong Long walked to the pavilion and held the torch high, and read out the three big characters "Yunyu Pavilion" on the plaque.
"'Cloud Rain Pavilion'?, in this forbidden place where 'intruders die', there is actually such an unearthly 'Cloud Rain Pavilion'?" Zhao Xinghe couldn't help but joke.
"It's really weird. Liu Chuyuan nodded in agreement.
"'Cloud Rain Pavilion'?" Ji Cangyu read it several times in his heart, and suddenly his eyes widened. He finally knew why he was somewhat familiar with the word "Cloud Rain Pavilion". It was a forty-year-old experience buried deep in his memory.
"Master, what's wrong with you?" Zhong Gong walked at the end with Qi Yang on his back, and just came to the pavilion when he happened to see Ji Cangyu frowning.
"It turns out that the mastermind behind the murder in Gaoyakou Village is Mrs. Piaopiao. Ji Cangyu said, sighing deeply.
After Zhong Gong put Qi Yang down, he asked, "Have you already found a clue?"
"I can be sure that this 'Cloud Rain Pavilion' was built by Lady Piaopiao. Ji Cangyu said with certainty.
Qi Yang looked up at this octagonal pavilion, but he didn't find anything different about this pavilion.
Seeing that Ji Cangyu looked reluctant to talk more, everyone didn't dare to ask more.
"It's getting late, let's rest here for the night! I'm afraid the forest is full of mechanisms and formations, so it's better to go and investigate at dawn." Ji Cangyu made the decision out of safety considerations. In fact, his heart was very chaotic, and he also wanted to calm down and sort out his thoughts.
Just when everyone was looking for something suspicious around the "Cloud Rain Pavilion", Ji Cangyu walked to the chair in the pavilion and sat down.
Looking at the dark night sky, Ji Cangyu recalled the past.
At that time, Ji Cangyu was still a yellow-mouthed child, and Mrs. Piaopiao was still Xu Ruyun, the kind and lovely little girl back then. The two are childhood sweethearts, inseparable, and they are holding small hands everywhere, so they are not intimate.
The young Ji Cangyu once thought that it was love, so he took Xiao Xu Ruyun to a dilapidated pavilion to worship heaven and earth. That worship of heaven and earth was just a child's play in Ji Cangyu's eyes, just like the two of them often played, but they didn't expect Xu Ruyun to take it seriously, thinking that it was an agreement for their lives.
And the pavilion where they once "worshipped heaven and earth" was also the farthest place they had traveled together when they were young, at the foot of Miaofeng Mountain.
The pavilion, which has no name, collapsed in a storm more than a decade ago and is long gone. Later, Ji Cangyu let people tear down the foundation and build it into a mountain temple.
And "Cloud Rain Pavilion" is the name that Xiao Xu Ruyun gave to the broken pavilion back then. "Cloud" represents Xu Ruyun, and "rain" is Ji Cangyu.
Ji Cangyu looked at this "Cloud Rain Pavilion" that looked exactly like the dilapidated pavilion, and sighed heavily.
Could it be that he killed the innocent people in Gaoyakou Village because of his greedy playfulness back then? And the forbidden place here was specially set up by Mrs. Piao Piao to expose her crimes? And the so-called secret was just the bait thrown by Mrs. Piao Piao to lure herself to this "Cloud Rain Pavilion"? Ji Cangyu held his head in pain. If this was Mrs. Piao's revenge, then she succeeded!

Ling'er was helping Qi Yang to look for clues around the "Cloud Rain Pavilion".
Qi Yang lowered his head and looked at every stone he walked under his feet, trying to find out what was suspicious.
And Ling'er was secretly paying attention to Ji Cangyu's situation. She felt as if Uncle Jiber was bothered by something.
When Ling'er noticed that Ji Cangyu was holding his head in his hands and looking distressed, he asked Qi Yang anxiously: "Uncle Ji doesn't seem to be right, is it because there is something strange about this pavilion?"
"I don't know. Qi Yang replied truthfully, "Maybe it's the grievances of the previous generation, right?" The 'rain' of 'Cloud Rain Pavilion' should refer to the owner of the village, and the word 'cloud' ...... Maybe it's Lady Piao's maiden name?"
"Oh. Ling'er nodded as if she didn't understand.
"There doesn't seem to be anything suspicious about this forbidden place on the surface, so I think there must be a secret room hidden under this forbidden place, but I don't know where the entrance is. Qi Yang said.
"Do you think the entrance is in this pavilion?" Ling'er asked in surprise.
Qi Yang nodded and continued to look for the possible mechanism.
Suddenly, a gust of yin wind blew, and Qi Yang quickly pushed Ling'er to the ground, and shouted a warning to the others: "Be careful of ambush!"
Ji Cangyu also sensed that something was wrong, got up and drew his sword, preparing to meet the enemy.
Everyone was shocked, thinking that they were not good at martial arts, and they all followed Qi Yang and fell to the ground.
Sure enough, the sound of arrows breaking through the air was heard.
Strangely, however, they didn't see any arrows being fired. Are all the arrows crooked?
Just when everyone got up and felt puzzled, Ji Cangyu shouted: "Come to the pavilion!"
Ji Cangyu, who had been standing in the pavilion, found that those arrows had been shot on the eaves of the pavilion, and at first he wondered, it was not a rocket, what was the purpose of the enemy doing this? But then he vaguely heard the sound of "Boom!Boom!Boom!", and he knew that something was wrong.
