For Lan Yuanxiao, Chu Zhen's mood was also complicated. www.biquge.info He hoped that the pretty young man had nothing to do with the dispute over the holy book, but he couldn't erase the suspicion in his heart. What's more important is that he revealed his identity like this, and he also wanted to see how Lan Yuanxiao reacted. I also want to discern how deep Lan Yuanxiao has been in this troubled water!

Of course, Chris was also taken aback when he heard this. But how smart she was, she immediately thought of the other party's purpose for revealing her identity. Oops, it seems that I went to print the scriptures during the day and was still discovered by the Mingjiao, I didn't expect to find the door so quickly, the efficiency is high enough!

Chu Zhen, who was carefully observing her every move, saw that she suddenly showed a sincere smile to herself.

"I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss Brother Chu so much!" Chris was still warm and cordial, as if the name of the left envoy of the Ming Sect had no influence on her.

Chu Zhen muttered, "Do you miss me?"

Not to mention the matter of the holy book, Shan Lan Yuanxiao's attitude towards himself was the same, which had already shocked Chu Yu's heart. On the rivers and lakes, as long as you report your name, the color of almost everyone's face will change. Now the virtuous brother is neither afraid of himself, nor deliberately pleased, such an affectionate demeanor is naturally revealed.

"It's a pity that I didn't know what your name was, where you lived, and how to find you...... Then Brother Cao gave me an idea...... "Chris said, "He said let me do that, and I will definitely see Brother Chu soon." It's only been half a day, and you have taken the initiative to come to me, my brother Cao has really cultivated into an immortal, so if you pinch your fingers, you can expect things like a god!"

"Brother Cao?" Jian Yan suddenly remembered that there were rumors in the palace that Cao Kai and Lan Yuanxiao were brothers, so he asked, "Uncle Cao Xiaoguo?"

"Well," Chris nodded, pointed at Chu Zhen, and then at himself, and said with a smile, "Brother Cao, Brother Chu, and I are drinking friends!"

I thought you were just a drinking friend of mine? Jian Yan quickly glanced at his old friend, and complained in his heart, Uncle Sword Immortal, Demon Sect Left Envoy, Lord Xiaolan, if you add the Great Song Divine Catch, okay, what kind of combination is this?

Chris went out of the palace for the first time, when he first met Cao Kai and Chu Zhen, Xiong Daiying was on an errand and had not yet returned to the palace, and he didn't know about it, but now he was secretly surprised that the master had even crossed paths with the left envoy of the Demon Sect. Since he is like his master, Xiong Daiying has also let down his full guard.

Chu Zhen still had that quiet expression on his face, when he heard Lan Yuanxiao mention Cao Kai, his heart moved, and after a little thought, he already knew it in his heart, and he didn't feel that his whole body was relaxed, and he also smiled at this time. Looking at Lan Yuanxiao's eyes again, I immediately understood that he meant to have something to say to me, but unfortunately the timing was not right at the moment......

Jian Yan watched the conversation between Chris and Chu Zhen, and couldn't help but be suspicious, but he didn't know what the two of them were bored with. It was even more obvious from Chu Zhen's face, but such a behavior was too abnormal.

Jian Yan cleared his throat and said coldly: "Kaifeng Mansion is investigating and arresting people here, why did the Zuo envoy come here?

Chu Yi glanced up at Jian Yan, and saw that his mouth was full of officialdom, but the expression in the depths of his eyes was a little elusive, knowing that he didn't want to expose the relationship between the two at this time. He turned his head to look at the entrance to the underground, and said to himself: Actually, I had already made up my mind not to show up today until I saw this thing.

Chu Yi was distracted for a moment and finally spoke.

"I didn't know that the god hunted the master to catch the thief here, and I didn't want to disturb ......" He raised his head, and the words suddenly changed, and said: "It's just that there is a series of ambushes below, and I am afraid that Yuan Xiaoxian's brother will be in danger, so I have to show up and make a move!"

"Serial ambush crossbow?" Xiong Daiying was shocked, if it wasn't for this left envoy just now, the master was afraid that something would have happened!

I forgot that Brother Teng said that you can't be impatient when you solve the mechanism! Chris also had a palpitation when she heard this, but she quickly realized one thing and hurriedly asked, "Brother Chu also understands the mechanism?"

"The danger of this kind of crossbow is that it will be fired in bursts. Chu Zhen ignored Chris's question and continued, "Even if a person with high martial arts skills doesn't know this, I'm afraid that he will dodge the first wave of crossbow arrows, but he will be injured by the second wave of crossbow arrows." Moreover, there will not be only one ambush crossbow that is generally set up, but dozens of them hidden in the dark together, which are imminent and continuous, making people unguardable. ”

Chu Zhen glanced at the sword shop, and saw that he had a suspicious expression as if to say: Why haven't I heard you say, do you know the mechanism?

Chu Zhen said in his heart: I don't understand other organs, but this serial ambush crossbow is specially made by the Ming Sect, and I can naturally see it at a glance!

He glanced at it, this room was still paved with stone slabs before, and there were not so many straw mats, how could it have been replaced with wooden planks in just one month? What's more, why was there a Mingjiao's volcanic crossbow buried under the wooden planks? There were many doubts, so I had to investigate!

Chris had seen a continuous crossbow machine in the underground city of Salmon Island, and he couldn't help but be curious at this time, so he asked, "Brother Chu, is there a way to crack this crossbow?"

Chu Yi smiled faintly and said: "The trick to cracking this volcanic crossbow is not to trigger the mechanism, and any stone slab below that has a white texture is the 'life path', as long as you step on it, you can pass it smoothly." ”

"Really, fake?" said Chris.

Chu Zhen said: "If it's true or not, you won't know if you go down to investigate!"

Xiong Daiying said worriedly: "It's too dangerous, don't go down!"

Listening to the two of them, Jian Yan always felt that a strange feeling flashed in his mind, and he couldn't catch it for a while, so he couldn't help frowning and thinking about it.

Who knew that Chu Zhen threw down that sentence, took the first step, and jumped into the hole.

Chris quickly looked down.

By the light of the torch in Jian Yan's hand, she saw Chu Zhen intact.

Chu Zhen pointed to the stone slab under his feet and said, "Look here, there are white veins on it!"

Manichaeism is a religion that believes in the god of light, and white represents light, so it was transmitted to the Central Plains to have the name of "Mingjiao". That's why this crossbow mechanism of Mingjiao will be marked with white as "the way to live".

Chu Yi stretched out his hand to her and gave her an encouraging look, and Chris floated down and landed beside him silently.

I didn't expect that after a few months, Brother Xian had practiced such a graceful light skill! When Chu Hui held her with his hand, he lightly clasped her wrist and secretly probed the breath in her body, and the cold breath in his hand was long and soft, he was surprised, and said in his belly: "Brother Xian has learned a pure internal skill from Brother Cao!"

Chris blinked, only to understand that Chu Zhen had just probed his pulse, and said in his heart: My master and Brother Cao are already in the same family, no wonder he mistakenly thought that I was learning kung fu from Brother Cao.

She didn't bother to explain why, so she nodded in acquiescence.

"The last time I saw Brother Xian, you didn't have a breath of true qi in your body, but now you have practiced such pure internal strength, which is surprising for Brother Wei!" Chu Yi continued to say to her secretly, "I didn't expect Brother Xian to be a good material for martial arts! ”

Chris was overjoyed to hear him praise himself like this, and his face flushed.

Chu Yi looked at her delicate appearance, and said in his heart: Brother Xian is such a person who is clear and jade, and is not deeply involved in the world.

People in the rivers and lakes, no one can easily let people hold the pulse so easily. The virtuous brother was not wary of himself in the slightest, and he did not know whether to rejoice that he trusted him so much, or should he be worried that he was too pure?

Chu Yi sighed, remembering the raging anger in his heart when he had just received the news that Lan Yuanxiao had the holy book in his hand, at that time, he wanted to have someone tie him up immediately, just thinking about using all kinds of means on him, and he was not afraid that he would not move. Chu Hui complained to himself and said: As soon as he touches the matter of the holy book, he is easy to be angry and lose his senses, how can such a pure and good person as a virtuous brother get mixed up with those hateful flying thieves!

At this time, Xiong Daiying followed closely.

Jian Yan hesitated a little, and said in his heart: Chu Yi usually acts calmly, and he has an organ, how can he be so reckless?

Lan Yuanxiao's acquaintance with Chu Zhen was greatly beyond his expectations, and he didn't know what he meant by squeezing his eyebrows just now, and he also involved Uncle Guo in order to help him fulfill his lies? King Chang's warning words are still in his ears. This matter must not be extraneously complicated, let alone allowed outside ginseng to come in. Jian Shi made up his mind, and followed with a lot of strength under his feet.

The light of the torches illuminated the passage ahead, and the texture on the floor was more clearly reflected.

The passage is slightly narrower, and will only be enough for two people to walk side by side. Chu Zhen and Chris opened the way in front, and Jian Xi and Xiong Daiying followed closely. Step by step, they carefully stepped on the white stone slabs and slowly walked through the passage.

He took the opportunity to carefully observe the surrounding walls, but he didn't find the slightest dent or the slightest trace of blood when he was shot by the crossbow arrow, could it be that this crossbow had never been triggered?

After passing through smoothly, the other people looked behind the passage at the same time, and they all let out a long breath.

Although Chris had palpitations, he was still curious, and said to himself: If you step on the wrong step, will you really shoot arrows?

Chu Yi seemed to see her thoughts, glanced at her, and took out a peanut from the sleeve of his robe.

Chris suddenly remembered that he had defeated a few Nanjiang barbarians with peanuts, and couldn't help but snicker: Brother Chu really doesn't leave peanuts?

Chu Zhen held the peanuts between his fingers and threw them towards a stone slab in the passage with strength.

Just listen to the sound of "bang", the stone slab sliding, between the eyelashes, dozens of crossbow arrows shot from below, and then I heard the sound of "swishing ......" continuously, the crossbow arrows shot in all directions, the stone wall burst apart, and the rubble flew sideways.

When the stone slab slid again, everything was calm, and then looked at the passage they had just passed, and it was filled with hundreds of crossbow arrows. The crossbow machine was powerful, and at such a close distance, the crossbow arrows shot into the wall more than an inch, and in some places where the arrows were clustered on the ceiling, two or three crossbow arrows were inserted into one shooting point.

Dozens of crossbow arrows were fired in a row, and it was such a narrow space, if you accidentally stepped on the mechanism, wouldn't you be shot into a hedgehog! Chris was already in a cold sweat, and at this time, when he recalled his reckless behavior just now, he was really afraid.

After a slight pause, Xiong Daiying and Jian Shi stepped forward, carefully checking for other traps as they cautiously advanced.

Chris was wet with cold sweat, and felt a feeling of wind and evil entering his body, which made him uncomfortable.

Chu Yi was beside her, looking at the cold sweat that was constantly oozing from her forehead, and asked in a low voice, "Brother Xian, what's wrong?"

Chris suppressed the dull pain in his inner breath, and he didn't understand what was wrong with him, so he couldn't speak for a long time.

Chu Yi saw that Chris was wrong, and reached out again to hold her vein, and his brows immediately furrowed. Because this time he felt a hot and restless inner breath, which was completely repulsive to the Taoist internal strength. He was secretly frightened: with the current strength of the virtuous brother, he couldn't suppress it at all, and the two internal breaths were fighting, and he was afraid that he would backfire, and even go mad. He didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly raised his breath and concentrated his energy, wanting to inject a wave of internal energy to calm the restless inner breath for her. Who knew that in an instant, the inner breath disappeared, and he almost felt that it was not his own delusion just now.

Xiong Daiying heard the movement behind him, came back to take a look, and saw that his master's face was pale, leaning on Chu Zhen's arms, and hurriedly asked, "Lord Xiaolan, what's wrong?"

Chu Hui didn't know the relationship between Xiong Daiying and Chris, so he felt that this matter was Lan Yuanxiao's own secret matter, and it was not enough to communicate with outsiders, so he said: "Maybe I was frightened!"

Jian Yan frequently looked at this side, and finally couldn't help but rush over.

After a while, Chris felt that the breath in his chest suddenly smoothed, and he let out a long breath, and his face was slightly pale. She looked at the passage full of crossbow arrows as if she didn't seem to be absent, and said, "I suddenly thought that I acted recklessly just now, if it weren't for Brother Chu's obstruction, I'm afraid that ten thousand arrows would pierce my body and die......!

Jian Yan looked at her with a pitiful look, and said in his heart: When did the stinky boy become so delicate? Why is the fierce appearance of yelling and choking with me on weekdays gone?

He scolded as usual: "You kid is just impatient, and now it can be regarded as a lesson for you! If you don't have a long memory, you will lose your life sooner or later if you are reckless!"

"Okay, he's afraid of this, you still have the mood to teach him a lesson!" Chu Yi was extremely displeased.

Eh, Brother Chu actually defended the stinky boy like this. The sword shop was bored, pouted, and continued on with the torch.

Chris secretly grimaced at his back, and at the same time her heart moved, feeling something strange. Jian Shi is arrogant and not inferior, he is the left envoy of the Ming Sect, presumably he will not take it seriously, how can he not put it in front of Brother Chu, he doesn't play a score much?

They descended deeper and faced a "stone gate".
