"Finally put away this trouble!"
In the room, Concubine Tang's complaints came out, her voice cold and full of impatience.
Su Xian's thoughts were suddenly pulled back. He lowered his head and looked down through the hole. Concubine Tang was walking quickly outside the house and said as she walked:
"Time is running out, we must hurry up, today is a rare opportunity, we must succeed!"
roof.
Su Xian and Yang Zhilan looked at each other.
There is something wrong with Tang Guifei's words.
What rare opportunity? What must succeed? What is success?
Su Xian subconsciously felt that if he could unravel the secret of Concubine Tang, he would be able to unravel a series of doubts that troubled him, such as the secret of the Celestial Silkworm Cult, and the true purpose of the group of masked men in black.
Seeing that Concubine Tang was drifting away, Su Xian and Yang Zhilan secretly agreed to follow her quietly to have a look...
At this time, Emperor Chu had already left.
The eunuchs and maids who served Tang Guifei, as well as the secret masters, also returned to Tang Guifei, which added a lot of trouble to Su Xian and the others.
Fortunately, Yang Zhilan was a top killer who was good at sneaking in. Even with a living person like Su Xian, he managed to sneak near Concubine Tang silently.
To Su Xian's surprise, Concubine Tang actually came to the room that was suspected to be a study.
She stopped in front of the door, turned to face the people behind her, casually nodded to the two palace maids and the two eunuchs, and ordered: "Follow me, you four."
"Yes." The four of them replied in unison.
Concubine Tang then ordered the remaining maids and eunuchs: "You guys stay outside the house. No matter what happens, no one is allowed to enter the house. Do you understand?"
"Slave, please understand."
"Um."
Concubine Tang nodded with satisfaction, turned around and opened the door, led four designated palace maids and eunuchs in, and then slammed the door tightly...
Not far away, behind a flower bed with lush vegetation, Su Xian and Yang Zhilan were hiding here.
Su Xian lowered his voice: "The other party also has experts, so I won't go over there yet. Zhilan, go and see what they are doing inside."
"But..." Yang Zhilan hesitated.
"Don't worry, I'm safe here. Besides, you can come back as soon as you go. If something unexpected happens to me, you can turn back at any time." Su Xian said.
"Okay." Yang Zhilan nodded. His body was like a nimble cat. He appeared on the roof of the study room quietly after a few ups and downs.
Su Xian took a breath, hid behind the flower bed and waited peacefully.
At this time, the maids and eunuchs in front of the study began to discuss in a low voice:
"Do you think Miss will succeed today?"
"Today is a rare opportunity. Besides, our lady has been preparing for a long time. I believe we can succeed!"
"..."
Listening to these words, Su Xian's doubts gradually increased.
These palace maids and eunuchs actually called Concubine Tang "Miss". Shouldn't they be "Empress"?
strangeness!
Also, what on earth is Concubine Tang doing? What was successful and unsuccessful?
Su Xian hid behind the flower bed, staring unblinkingly in the direction of the study. He really wanted to rush into the house at all costs, catch Concubine Tang and question her clearly.
The palace maid and eunuch in front of the study continued:
"When Miss succeeds this time, we can go back. Haha, with Miss's ability, we will definitely be able to sweep everything away, and our subordinates will also be able to follow suit."
"Okay, stop talking, just keep quiet so as not to disturb the lady inside..."
They were indeed quiet.
Standing silently outside the study.
After a while, Yang Zhilan returned quietly, leaned into Su Xian's ear and said, "Sir, there is no one in the study."
"No one?!" Su Xian was surprised. How could it be possible? He just saw Tang Guifei leading someone in.
"But I found that there was a hole leading to the ground." Yang Zhilan added.
"You mean, Concubine Tang and the others went to the underground secret room?" Su Xian's eyebrows moved.
"good."
Su Xian frowned and fell into thought.
After a while, he looked up at Yang Zhilan and ordered:
"The autobiography we are looking for is related to Concubine Tang, and it may also have a lot to do with the secrets of Concubine Tang."
"Well, let's find a way to enter the study, go to the underground secret room, and meet Concubine Tang for a while. It would be great if we could get the autobiography from her."
"Even if we can't, we can still coerce Concubine Tang and let their people take us out of the palace!"
Yang Zhilan thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay."
After the plan was decided, Yang Zhilan picked up a small stone from the flower bed and threw it into the distance. It made two crisp sounds and hit the tiles on the roof of a certain palace.
"who?"
The faces of the palace maids and eunuchs who were guarding the door of the study changed drastically at the same time, and they went straight to the place where there was movement. There was no one in front of the door of the study.
"Seize the opportunity and act!"
Yang Zhilan took Su Xian out of the flower bed, ran to the study door, pushed the door gently with her hand, and found that it didn't move at all. The door bolt had obviously been pulled inside.
"Oops, it can't be opened." Su Xian was worried and looked back at the direction where the eunuchs and maids were running away, for fear that they would suddenly return.
But Yang Zhilan was very calm. She gave Su Xian a reassuring look, then pulled out the soft sword from her waist with a "swish" sound, inserted the thin blade into the crack of the door, and flicked it gently. , the door bolt was easily pulled open.
A book-chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend I have known for ten years! It’s so easy to use. I rely on it to pass the time while driving or before going to bed by reading and listening to books. You can download it here..]
"here you go!"
Su Xian breathed a sigh of relief, and while admiring, he and Yang Zhilan turned around and entered the room, closed the door with their backhand, and then closed the door bolt again.
At this time, footsteps and voices came from outside the door:
"Strange, what happened just now? There was obviously no one."
"It might be a wild cat or something. Whatever, let's stay here honestly."
"Right."
"..."
inside the house.
Su Xian calmed down and, under the guidance of Yang Zhilan, came to the entrance of the underground secret room.
This room is indeed a study room. The location of the underground entrance is very clever. It is under a certain row of bookshelves. There is a mechanism next to it that can control the bookshelf to move left and right.
What puzzled Su Xian was that after Concubine Tang led the people in, she didn't close the entrance and left it open, which was a great convenience to Su Xian and the others.
If they reopen the mechanism, they will definitely attract the attention of the group of people outside the house, and maybe even alarm Concubine Tang and others underground...
The underground entrance is a stone staircase sloping downward, which is three people wide. There are burning candles on the wall, and the entire secret passage is transparent and bright.
Yang Zhilan was in front and Su Xian was behind. The two of them slowly walked down the stone stairs to the underground.
There is still a three-person-wide passage underground with many turns. There are still burning candles on the walls and it is quiet.
While Su Xian was walking, his nerves were always tense and his heart was in his throat.
However, he is not afraid, he has Yang Zhilan, and he believes that Yang Zhilan can protect him under any circumstances.
After walking about five or six feet in the underground passage and turning several turns, Yang Zhilan in front suddenly stopped and waved his hand back to signal Su Xian to stop.
Su Xian's heart was beating fast. He knew that Concubine Tang was in front of him.
"who?"
Unexpectedly, they were discovered.
There was a scolding sound from a palace maid in front of the corner.
Yang Zhilan made a prompt decision, drew out the soft sword in his hand, quickly crossed the corner, and took the initiative to meet him.
Su Xian hurriedly followed. After walking through the corner, the sight in front of him suddenly opened up. It turned out to be a semicircular cave hall with a radius of three to four feet.
The two eunuchs and two palace maids who had just followed Concubine Tang in were standing side by side in the middle of the cave hall. There was a seemingly very solid stone door on the cave wall behind them.
Su Xian looked around and did not see Concubine Tang.
It was obvious that Concubine Tang was in that stone gate!
"Who are you? Why are you trespassing here?" A palace maid held a weapon and asked in a deep voice.
"No matter who they are, the young lady is in a critical period and cannot be disturbed in any way. Kill them first!" Another man dressed as an eunuch rushed over first.
Yang Zhilan glanced back and warned, "Master, stay back."
The man dressed as an eunuch sneered: "Want to run away? It's not that easy. This is not a place where you can come and leave whenever you want."
While talking, the two were already fighting.
What was shocking was that Yang Zhilan defeated the eunuch with just one move and fell to the ground unconscious.
"Who the hell are you?!"
The remaining two women and one man suddenly felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy, holding the weapons in their hands tightly, ready to charge at any time.
"Don't be nervous."
Su Xian breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, walked past Yang Zhilan to the front, smiled and waved his hand, saying:
"We have no ill intentions. We are just here to seek cooperation. Put down your weapons first. Look at me, I don't know how to do anything."
The three people opposite looked at Su Xian and found that Su Xian was indeed an ordinary person. They relaxed their vigilance slightly and lowered their raised weapons.
"What kind of cooperation?" asked the other party.
"There is a book that is very important to me. After many inquiries, I found out that the book is in the hands of Concubine Tang Guifei. If you are willing to give me the book and escort us out of the palace, we will not be against each other. How are you."
Su Xian thought he had control of the situation, looked at the other three and smiled:
"Just now, you have also seen the combat effectiveness of my guard. You are no match for her... So, my conditions are quite reasonable."
As soon as Su Xian finished speaking, the three people across from him looked at each other.
Immediately afterwards, their expressions changed at the same time, and the weapons they had just put down were raised again, pointed at Su Xian and Yang Zhilan, and sneered:
"Don't even think about it! In order to get that book, Miss has gone through a lot of effort and sacrificed too much. It's impossible to give it to you. You'd better give up!"
"You actually disagree?" Su Xian was surprised. Isn't it an autobiography of the late Emperor of Southern Chu? Is it really that important?
"Stop talking nonsense, either you will die or we will die today, it's up to you!" the three people on the other side shouted loudly.
Su Xian frowned, stepped back behind Yang Zhilan, and ordered: "Zhilan, then knock down all three of them. Remember, leave them alive."
"Haha." The three people on the opposite side sneered, surrounded them from different directions, and said sarcastically: "You are indeed powerful, but you are only one person, and there are three of us..."
puff!
Uh-huh!
Ouch!
Yang Zhilan danced the soft sword in her hand into a whip. The tip of the sword, glowing with a faint cold light, would strike from some incredible angle. Although there were three enemies, they were not all enemies.
Three moves!
Yang Zhilan only used three moves to kill the three opponents instantly!
In fact, these people are not weak in skills. Any one of them will be like a great master. However, Yang Zhilan is more powerful than them.
The difference between great masters and super masters is still huge.
Su Xian glanced at the four people lying on the ground who were still breathing, walked side by side to the stone door with Yang Zhilan, turned around and looked at the four of them and said:
"Since you don't want to cooperate, then we have no choice but to take action."
"Don't even think about getting the Supreme Secret Code of my religion. Even if I destroy it, I won't give it to you!" said an eunuch lying on the ground through gritted teeth.
"Huh?" Su Xian raised his eyebrows slightly.
The supreme secret code of the Celestial Silkworm Cult?
What it is?
What he is looking for is the autobiography of the late Emperor of Southern Chu!
Su Xian pursed his lips. There seemed to be a misunderstanding just now...
"snort!"
Su Xian was too lazy to pay attention to them and had no time to explain. He turned directly to face the closed stone door.
It's more important to do business.
Yang Zhilan discovered the mechanism that opened the stone door at a glance, and raised his hand to open the mechanism.
"Don't worry."
Su Xian stopped her, took out a small porcelain bottle the size of a thumb, unplugged the stopper, poured out two pills, handed one to Yang Zhilan, and ordered:
"This is deworming medicine. Keep it in your pocket to prevent accidents."
Yang Zhilan had no expression on his face as he took the pill and put it in his pocket. Then he raised his hand again and touched the mechanism of the stone door.
Boom!
Accompanied by bursts of rumbling sounds, the stone door slowly opened. This stone door should not be opened many times, but there was stone powder falling from it, and the scene was horrifying.
"How dare you..."
Behind him, the palace maids and eunuchs were paralyzed on the ground, their eyes wide open.
But there was nothing we could do.
Su Xian ignored them, waited for the stone door to open, and entered side by side with Yang Zhilan.
The stone door seemed to be sensing something, and it closed slowly on its own initiative...
As soon as he stepped into this secret room, Su Xian felt a little hot. The temperature inside was ten or twenty degrees higher than outside.
Moreover, the secret room seems to be emitting a strange red light!
Su Xian and Yang Zhilan looked closely and saw that Concubine Tang was sitting there about three to four feet away with her eyes slightly closed. There was a faint red light on her face, which looked very strange.
There was also a hazy white mist in this secret room, wisps of smoke, almost covering Tang Guifei's whole body, only the head and neck areas were exposed.
That strange red light emanates from Concubine Tang?
"Is it really weird?"
Su Xian felt a chill in his heart, feeling as if he was facing a "supernatural event" head-on.
Not long ago, he had a more scientific understanding of "enchantment" and "love poison", such as hypnosis, semen and so on.
But how to explain the current scene?
Concubine Tang was sitting there, her whole body exuding a strange red light. This was so magical, it didn't look like something that existed naturally in nature at all.
She seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep and did not notice the arrival of Su Xian and Yang Zhilan.
Let's make peace with what has come...Su Xian comforted himself and slowly approached with Yang Zhilan.
Finally, closer.
Through the wisps of white mist, Su Xian could see clearly.
Bullshit supernatural events!
It turned out that there was a strange and simple copper cauldron placed in front of Concubine Tang. There was a charcoal fire under the cauldron, and the strange red light was actually the light of the charcoal fire.
When Su Xian's eyes moved upward and saw the overall image of Concubine Tang, his blood suddenly surged, his nose became sore, and he almost burst out with two bright red blood columns.
What did he see?
Amidst the wisps of smoke, Concubine Tang was wearing a gauze, sitting cross-legged. She seemed to be really hot, dripping with sweat, and the gauze was wet and clinging gently to her body.
What comes into view is a thrilling silhouette...
The 500-word detailed description is omitted here. 】
Su Xian was no longer Chu Ge, so logically he wouldn't have had a nosebleed on the spot.
But Tang Guifei is different.
She was naturally charming, and with the blessing of charm, her power increased dozens of times. The fact that Su Xian didn't have a nosebleed in the end showed that his concentration was far beyond ordinary people.
As a woman, Yang Zhilan was an overly calm killer who was used to life and death. As a result, she almost couldn't move her eyes away, and it took a lot of effort to turn slightly sideways.
But she was afraid that Concubine Tang would suddenly act violently and hurt someone. After turning sideways, she still stared at Concubine Tang sideways. Gradually, a trace of blush appeared on her face that was always expressionless.
Yang Zhilan is still like this, so you know how captivating that scene must be...
