Chapter 40 Night Exploration of the Palace, Mysterious Water Prison

Xie Tianxing galloped quickly, and after a short time, he rushed to the Fulai Inn, dismounted and ran to the second floor to push the door and enter, but saw Lu Shiyan sitting alone and napping, and suddenly saw Xie Tianxing returning to relieve himself a little.

"Brother Xie is finally back...... Senior Sister Wan'er, she's sick!" Lu Shiyan rubbed her eyes and pointed anxiously in the bedroom.

Xie Tianxing glanced indoors, and a sixty-year-old man was sitting in front of the bed with his eyes slightly closed to take Ouyang Wan'er's pulse. "Sister Wan'er, how could Duan, who was fine two days ago, suddenly get sick?" Xie Tianxing asked.

"Yesterday, Senior Sister Wan'er saw that Brother Xie had not returned for a long time, and she was worried and had not slept all night, so when she got up this morning, Senior Sister kept babbling and had a high fever, so I went to the city to find a doctor. Lu Shiyan said.

The doctor turned around and said with a happy face: "Congratulations to Mrs. Congratulations, she has a happy pulse, she is currently physically and mentally tired, and excessive anxiety is liver stagnation, I can prescribe a few prescriptions to take it on time." In the future, you have to rest and recuperate, and don't move the fetus. The old man said.

Xie Tianxing was overjoyed and said, "The doctor is right! Wan'er is really pregnant with my child." He was suddenly excited when he heard the news, and then thought that he was not yet married, and if this matter got out, it would inevitably become a gossip among the people in the rivers and lakes, and it would also make Ouyang Yu, the head of the Wuyue Sword Sect, look embarrassed, and immediately take some silver taels and send the doctor.

Lu Shiyan took the prescription and ran to the city to grab the medicine, Xie Tian walked to the side of the bed and gently soothed Ouyang Wan'er's cheek, she had already woken up, and all the words of the suitable doctor were heard in her ears, and in the hazy eyes of tears, she saw Xie Tianxing waiting in front of the bed, and her heart was like a spring of sour tears and she cried on his shoulder.

"What are you doing crying like a child for such a happy event?"

"I ...... I'm so worried about you... There is always a bad premonition in my heart. After we rescue Senior Uncle Gu Qing this time, we will return to the Wuyue Sword Sect and never set foot in the rivers and lakes again, okay?" Ouyang Wan'er sobbed.

"Okay, I promise you, after some things are over, let's go away and fly high, and live in seclusion in the quiet place of the valley and never ask about the world again, wouldn't it be happy and happy. "Thank God.

"Oops...... Brother Xie and Senior Sister Wan'er made a private agreement for life, and they are really envious of their sister when they find a paradise! Lu Shiyan said with a smile.

"Senior Sister Lu, don't worry, we will be the first to let my sister know wherever we go, otherwise you won't have to complain about me." Ouyang Wan'er said.

"By the way, I heard Brother Xie say that this Mobei Mountain Villa is about a few miles away from here, how can you go for two days to return?" Ouyang Wan'er said.

"It turns out that the Mobei Mountain Villa is hidden in the bamboo forest, and the so-called Lingzhi Daoist's real name is Yu Qiu, who is the imperial craftsman of the previous dynasty. Later, when Uncle Yu and I hit it off, they left me to drink in the stone room, so it was delayed for some time!"

"Did the iron box of Jiangnan Shuangjie's orphan ever be handed over to the Lingzhi Daoist?" Lu Shiyan said.

"Of course it's handed over to him, how can you covet other people's relics?"

"Brother Xie, what is the strange thing in that iron box? tell me!" Lu Shiyan was very curious.

Xie Tianxing saw that she was very arrogant, if she told this iron box the map of the underground Nine Dragon Hall of the former imperial palace, maybe one day she gossiped in the rivers and lakes and leaked her mouth, and there are not a few people in the martial arts who covet wealth and treasures, wouldn't it be a disaster?

"Hmph! Brother Xie refuses to tell him. Lu Shiyan said coquettishly.

"However, there are some clues about the whereabouts of your Uncle Gu Qing, and the Western Regions Poison Saint that I inadvertently mentioned knows the origin of this person. After Xie Tianxing finished speaking, he took out a yellowed map from his arms.

Ouyang Wan'er got out of bed and sat down at the table, staring at the map intently and said, "This map is the direction to find Uncle Gu Qing's whereabouts?"

"That's right! I learned from Uncle Yu that the Poison Saint of the Western Regions has a close relationship with Prince Ning, and besides, this map is the water prison secret room that Uncle Yu built under King Ning's Mansion back then, anyway, I need to go and investigate, whether your Uncle Gu Qing is imprisoned here or not will know at that time." "Thank God.

"Brother Xie, since the water prison is built in secret, it must be imprisoned by important people, and there are naturally many hidden weapons around it. Now that Senior Sister Wan'er is pregnant, she can't go with you, so I'll accompany you on a trip!" Lu Shiyan said.

"No, there must be many masters in this Ning Wangfu, how can you go with me, besides, the underground underground underground tunnel is complicated, although there are drawings in hand, if you want to come and go freely, it is very human, and I will go alone for this lying task. Miss Lu just stayed at the inn and took good care of Sister Wan'er. "Thank God.

"It's good for Senior Sister Lu to stay here with me, Brother Xie is strong in martial arts and has a sword in hand, so he can naturally come back thoughtfully, if you go to teach him to be distracted." Ouyang Wan'er persuaded.

"If you don't go, you won't go! I'll take care of my senior sister here. Lu Shiyan saw that the two of them were stubborn at the moment, but she had to stay in the inn.

"When will Brother Xie sneak into King Ning's Mansion to investigate?" asked Ouyang Wan'er.

"During the day, the palace is heavily guarded, and it seems that it is better to go in only tonight when the night is dark," Xie Tianxing said.

In the evening, the sun fell, and the sky was dark.

King Ning's Mansion was brightly lit and full of voices, and a black figure flew down to the dark corner of the eaves of King Ning's Mansion.

Xie Tianxing leaned on the roof and uncovered the tiles and looked into the house, but when he saw that Prince Ning was sitting in the guest room, a doctor said: "Congratulations to the prince, Mrs. Ning has a happy pulse!"

Xie Tianxing's heart was down and he understood that this Ning Wangye was the old man today, while everyone was happy, Xie Tianxing remembered that the map marked the location of the entrance to the water prison in Ning Wangye's study, and immediately flew over several wings to the door of the study, and pushed the palm of his hand on the door A force was instilled, and with a click, the door latch fell in response, Xie Tianxing dodged in and then gently closed the door.

This study is the place where the prince Ning deals with official business, a red sandalwood bookcase is placed in the middle, the two sides are the book pavilions, and there is a plum bottle in each corner of the room. Xie Tian walked to the southeast corner and held the bottle mouth with both hands and gently rotated it for half a circle.

With a bang, the library pavilion moved to the right a zhang wide, a stone staircase secret passage appeared in front of him, Xie Tianxing lit the oil candle and leaned in, the secret passage was high enough for three people to go together, Xie Tianxing followed the instructions on the map, and walked to the right at the first fork, but felt that the steps under his feet were extended down, and after several forks.

Suddenly, there was a rare candlelight at the end of the secret passage, flickering and dimming, and there were people stationed here in front of Xie Tianxing's heart path, and he blew out the oil candle at the moment, tiptoed to the bright place of the lamp, and then approached a few steps A burst of conversation came into his ears.

"Xuanzhen Daoist, tell me the whereabouts of that secret book quickly, Prince Ning has a merciful mind for the sake of you handing over the treasures, maybe you will let everyone live. Lest the uncle wait here day and night!" Xie Tianxing glanced at and peeked that the person who spoke was the jailer stationed here.

"Phew! Straight lady thief, I can't imagine that the prince of the Ming Dynasty is a human-faced beast, brutal torture in private, and covets that sword cheats, it's really ridiculous!" someone in the prison scolded.

Xie Tianxing felt that this voice was very familiar, and his heart was suddenly shocked, this voice was Zhang Zhishan, the second disciple of the Shangqing Sect.
