Ding Dong pointed and walked over, and Qi Ying'er followed suit. The two of them stepped over the bushes and came under a white wall. Dingdong pointed to the white wall and said: "This is it, I really want to remember that I should go to the right after walking through the pond, but there is no road on the right when I walked just now, I really think about these bushes, but there is an arch on the left to pass through." ”

"Let's just walk through the arch on the left. Qi Ying'er looked at the arched door.

"Yes, there is only one way to go. ”

"If we continue to the left, we will definitely come to the place we just came again, and it seems that this is the real road. Qi Ying'er patted the wall, "It's just that it's blocked." ”

Ding Dong smiled, jumped on the eaves, and said happily: "Sure enough, this road has indeed been tampered with." ”

Qi Ying'er also jumped on the eaves. Behind the wall he saw a wide courtyard with a house made of bamboo. This house has a corridor and a tea pavilion, if there is a person sitting in this tea pavilion at this time, drinking tea and admiring the moon, it is as comfortable as in the painting. Ding Dong jumped down, and Qi Ying'er followed closely behind.

"Is she here?" Qi Ying'er's spirit was once again focused on Sun Qiao'er.

Dingdong said: "That's right. Maybe it was because Qi Ying'er had cracked the maze just now, and her attitude towards him seemed to be gentle, but it still gave him a lukewarm feeling.

But at this moment, there was no room in his mind for him to store this feeling, he only cared about whether Sun Qiao'er was in that chic bamboo house.

As he got closer, his heart became more and more uneasy. Was Qiao'er really in that room? Maybe she was lying on a comfortable bed somewhere, or sitting on a swing—was there a swing in the yard? Qi Ying'er didn't see it. Maybe she was staring blankly at the moon at that window.

The moon hid under a cloud.

He still remembered that Sun Qiao'er was depressed when he saw the masked man, he couldn't forget it, and every time he thought about it, there would be a wave of anger that the master and apprentice would swallow him. No, he thought, he can't do that now. He needed to comfort her, he needed to hug her, he needed to tell her not to be afraid. He thought of all the ways he could think of to comfort the frightened Qiao'er, each of which made him feel unreal, and he even didn't dare to face Sun Qiao'er a little. He felt that it was because he had failed to protect her that he had allowed her to suffer like this.

No matter what he thought, when he approached the bamboo house, everything vanished.

There was no Sun Qiao'er in the bamboo house. A bamboo coffee table, two futons, and inside is a low soft collapse, and the windows are open. Everything seems to have never been missing, but there is no Sun Qiao'er.

Qi Ying'er's uneasiness was implemented.

Dingdong was surprised and said, "What......'s the matter?" I remember to put them. ”

"Them?" Qi Ying'er asked instinctively.

"Yes, it's Fang Yunfei and that girl. I brought them all to this room. ”

Qi Ying'er's head "buzzed", did Fang Yunfei do something to Sun Qiao'er, but then Ding Dong's words made him ease up a little.

Ding Dong said: "I drugged Fang Yunfei's tea, and he will fall asleep until dawn." ”

Qi Ying'er just relaxed her heart slightly—not Fang Yunfei, and then raised her heart—who could it be?

Dingdong said: "That's right! They are gone, they must have something to do with the person who deliberately made us lose our way!"

"Maybe he kidnapped Sun Qiao'er. Qi Ying'er said coldly.

Ding Dong was very anxious, his eyes were full of guilt, and said, "I really shouldn't have put them here! It's all my fault! This manor is not safe!"

Qi Ying'er just looked at her, he didn't know what reason he could blame the woman in front of him, she didn't do anything wrong.

Qi Ying'er said, "Let's go, let's go back." Maybe Qi Zhengqing knows the root of the matter. ”

They walked very fast, jumping almost on the eaves. When they returned there, another piece of news hit them again - Ling Quanfei fainted, and Qi Zhengqing was gone.

"Oh my God!" Ding Dong exclaimed, and Qi Ying'er was about to burst into tears when she saw her. He's at a loss now, but he has to force himself to calm down. He went to help Ling Quanfei onto the bed, the bed that was supposed to be in front of Qi Zhengqing was soft and comfortable. Ding Ohdong didn't stand there dumbfounded, she also came over to help.

Qi Ying'er said, "Girl, how much do you know about this manor?"

She shook her head and said, "Not much, I came here a few days ago. For only one wounded companion...... Oh no!"

"What's wrong?"

"I forgot about him!"

"Your companion, where is he?"

"He's in this manor, he's in that room!

Ding Dong turned around abruptly and ran outside, but Qi Ying'er couldn't stop her. There may be danger in the manor now, and it will be dangerous to act rashly. These days, Qi Ying'er has become more and more able to look at things calmly, becoming more stable and mature. But he still didn't continue to stop Ding Dong, he wanted to use Ding Dong's martial arts, ordinary people should not be her opponents, besides, she has much more experience in the rivers and lakes than herself, and she will definitely be able to solve it by herself in case of emergencies. On the contrary, Ling Quanfei, who is down now, is even more vulnerable, and it is easy for someone to take his life, so he plans to stay here to protect him, and calmly analyze the current situation by the way.

Qi Zhengqing is the key to the whole thing, and his identity is the key to solving the puzzle. He recalled Qi Zhengqing's two eyes that flashed green during the day, where he seemed to have seen them. That's right, it's the masked man. When Qi Ying'er stabbed him with a sword last night, a green light flashed behind the mask. Qi Ying'er always notices details that may help him find the answer to his question. What should Qi Zhengqing have to do with that masked man!

The thought of Sun Qiao'er made his heart ache, and the pain briefly interrupted his thinking, and then he continued to think. The Mask Man and Sun Qiao'er have met more than once, and Sun Qiao'er was tortured by the Mask Man when she was young, but she escaped death. This reminded her of Ling Quanfei's words, when he was about to chase the masked man and wanted to save Sun Qiao'er, Ling Quanfei told him that the masked man didn't seem to hurt Sun Qiao'er. But it turned out that it was true, and the masked man never hurt Sun Qiao'er's skin.

But isn't it mental damage?

His feelings for Qiao'er interrupted his rational thinking again, and he calmed himself down.

What matters now is that the Masked Man may have died. He noticed that his thoughts were "probably" dead. He couldn't believe how someone as a monster like him could be killed so easily, and that the corpse might just be a façade. To make this puzzle more complicated.

He wondered if the Masked Man hadn't died—would it all make sense?

Qi Zhengqing trapped them, but did not intend to kill them, but finally released them. However, his purpose may be that he doesn't want to die, because Qi Ying'er pierced his left shoulder, and his luck forcibly broke through the acupoint that was blocked by Ding Dong, which consumed a lot of true qi, plus excessive blood loss. If he didn't let himself and Ling Quanfei come out, it was very likely that he would die.

Suddenly, Qi Ying'er discovered another detail. Qi Zhengqing buried a deadly knife for himself - he lit Ding Dong's acupoint. The kung fu of acupuncture points seems simple, but it is a subtle use of internal force, finding the acupuncture points, and sealing the acupoints of others is not just about clicking twice on his acupuncture points. If you want to be able to seal other people's movements quickly and accurately, you must release the internal force from your fingertips in an instant, like a needle blocking other people's meridians.

The reason why Qi Ying'er knew these things was because of the book of swords for strengthening the body that his master Mu Wuya gave him at the beginning, which contained these simple instructions. I really didn't expect that the seemingly useless sword book could turn myself into a weapon to solve the puzzle at this moment.

Qi Zhengqing could have killed Ding Dong, but he wasted more effort to point her acupoints and seal her movements, why is this?

Didn't he intend to kill anybody in the first place? Just to hold us back.

Qi Ying'er believes that someone must be manipulating all this behind the scenes. Is it possible that this matter has something to do with Nangong He? Qi Ying'er had never seen Nangong He again, but she had only heard of his notoriety. If he controlled all this, then he was far more terrifying than he thought. He was sure of every step from the start.

Then he thought of Ding Dong. Ding Dong's clothes are the same as those of the Shadow Man, which may indicate that she was once a member of it, and for some reason she escaped the control of the Masked Man, and even became his enemy. Maybe when she comes back, you can ask her, and she may know who the masked man really is. This solves at least one person.

Qi Ying'er knew that things were very complicated, and the masked man might not be the culprit, but he must be a key one.

However, these are inferences made while he is still alive.

What if he really died?

He accidentally saw the moon and found that Ding Dong had been gone for about half an hour, but he still hadn't come back, so what trouble had he encountered?

Qi Ying'er always felt that this woman looked a lot like another person, if she was - Shangguan Linglong?

It is impossible for a dead person to be brought back to life, but what if she didn't die in the first place......? Shadow Man.

He now hopes that Dingdong can return safely, so that he may be able to make some progress.

After Ding Dong hurriedly left Qi Ying'er's room, he went up to the roof and stood as high as he could to look at the road below. She didn't want to be trapped in a maze again.

She found Da Zhuang's house, jumped on the roof and the wall, and then made it into the courtyard of that house. She was a little worried, what if she opened the door this time and found that Da Zhuang was gone?

She pushed open the door and found Da Zhuang still lying on the bed. Her heart fell, and she hurried over, "Da Zhuang." Are you okay?"

She walked to his bed, but Da Zhuang did not respond, his eyes closed tightly, as if there was some pain. Ding Dong's whole body was cold, and she shouted again: "Da Zhuang...... Big ......"
