As soon as Mu Canglin finished speaking, he suddenly hugged Yun Jiutang and slid close to the ground.
Almost at the same time, dozens of sharp spears suddenly stabbed down from the top of his head.
Many people were stabbed and fell to the ground all of a sudden.
There was a strong stench in the air.
Yun Jiutang said anxiously: "It's stained with gold juice!"
So cruel!
What these people are most afraid of is this kind of filth. Now that they are doing this, it can be said that their spears are stained with shit, and whoever they poke will die!
Even though the secret passage was not very spacious, so many spears were poked down by the long head at once, plus the fallen ones, the road was blocked and there was no way to go out.
Concubine Zhuang was still shouting happily, "It's fun! It's fun!"
Bai Liran said angrily: "Knock her out! Knock her out quickly!"
The next moment, someone took action, and Concubine Zhuang finally became completely quiet.
But at this moment, the man above withdrew his spear.
Immediately afterwards, someone shouted: "Down!"
Along with the bursts of crashing sounds, a strong stench hit his face.
Yun Jiutang couldn't bear it anymore, and the others were not much better.
"Hurry up!" Bai Liran immediately chose a direction and directed everyone to move forward.
This should be on the road outside the palace. Now we should take shelter in some places that are not easy to penetrate.
Fortunately, they had entered this secret passage many times, and Bai Liran, who was leading the way, quickly chose the direction.
But the team above them was chasing after them.
They seemed to be able to easily determine the location of the people below, walking and digging all the way.
Just like that, two more were broken on the road, and they didn't bother to rescue them.
When they came out again, they came to the abandoned Huarong Palace.
Since Concubine Zhuang participated in the rebellion, the palace has been abandoned and in decline.
The palace door was locked and sealed, and even the contents inside were not touched.
It was full of dust here, but coincidentally, there were some clothes of eunuchs and maids in the cabinet in the side hall.
Yun Jiutang checked it and found that there was no problem.
The group quickly changed into them!
It's just that it doesn't fit a little, but it's better than them running around half-dressed.
There are still four people left who were rescued just now.
The four of them, wearing ill-fitting clothes, knelt in front of Yun Jiutang again.
Several of them were very handsome, and they looked like they were born into ordinary families.
"Who are you? Why are you in that dark room?" Yun Jiutang asked.
"My subordinate Bian Hexuan, this is my younger brother Bian Hehong, Bian Heyun, and Bian Heyue." The leader said solemnly,
"The four of us brothers came here to ask for the elixir. It is said that there is a goddess in the palace who can grow lotuses at every step, and even rare and rare herbs can grow wherever she lives!
My father is suffering from a strange disease that is difficult to cure. We wanted to try our luck! I never thought that I would be plotted and end up like that!
If it hadn't been for the master's rescue, I'm afraid we would be like the skeletons in the dark passage and never see the light of day! "
"You are brave enough to come to the palace to steal medicine." Yun Jiutang couldn't help but sigh.
"My subordinates pride themselves on their lightness skills, thinking that entering and exiting the palace is like searching for something. But they didn't expect that there was something different about this palace. As soon as they approached Changding Palace, they instantly lost consciousness.
When the subordinate woke up, he was already locked in a dark room and tortured! The younger brothers also had no news about their subordinates, so they came one after another, and the result..." Bian Hexuan said, hanging his head guiltily.
They were almost killed in one fell swoop.
"The Bian family? The Bian family of Jinghu Villa?" Mu Canglin asked, "Is your father Bian Jingqing?"
"It's my father!" Bian Hexuan said.
Jinghu Villa is a well-known sect in the world. It has many industries under its name, spread all over the country, and is even involved in both black and white.
Although they are in the Jianghu, they also have a close relationship with the government, and they have a decisive position in the Jianghu.
Even the kings of various countries are afraid of them!
How could such a sect and such a powerful master of the village need several of his sons to take risks and come to the palace to find medicine when he was suffering from a serious illness?
This matter is unjustifiable!
"I'm afraid you didn't tell the truth!" Bai Liran said coldly.
Although Yun Jiutang didn't know Jinghu Villa, he could guess from the expressions of the two of them that this villa was very impressive.
"Subordinates dare not deceive the master!" Bian Hexuan said quickly,
"My father is indeed suffering from a serious disease, and he has sought medical examination, but he has not been able to recover. Moreover, because it involves some interests, my father does not dare to announce this matter to the public.
Therefore, I have been seeking medical treatment secretly. If we weren't really desperate, we wouldn't risk it and come here! "
This explanation does make sense.
Jinghu Villa is so powerful that it will inevitably make a lot of enemies.
Moreover, there are various internal interest entanglements, and it is impossible to guarantee how many people are closely eyeing the position of the village owner.
"You guys get up first!" Yun Jiutang said.
Several people stood up one after another and stood aside, waiting for Yun Jiutang's instructions.
"What to do next?" Yun Jiutang looked at Mu Canglin.
It's already dark, so naturally we can't stay here for long.
But now that the palace is under martial law, it is not easy to leave.
What's more, he also brought with him a concubine Zhuang who had lost her mind.
But at this moment, there was a clanging sound of digging outside.
Obviously, the emperor was angry and began to send people to destroy the secret passage underneath.
Seeing this, Bian Hexuan said in a deep voice: "The emperor's move is really digging his own grave."
Hearing this, Mu Canglin looked at him.
"What's the meaning?"
"Emperor Yuan Shuo came to the throne in a wrong way, and there is a lot of important information that has not been received." Bian Hexuan said, "My father has a close relationship with Emperor Jiale, so naturally he also knows some royal secrets."
Emperor Jiale was the previous emperor and Mu Yuanzhao's father.
Hearing this, Yun Jiutang suddenly realized.
No wonder these four brothers wanted to sneak in and steal some elixir. It turned out to be because they had a grudge against the current emperor.
If he fell into the emperor's hands this time, he would be tortured.
She was very interested in these royal secrets and looked at Bian Hexuan with interest.
But at this moment, she suddenly felt that Mu Canglin's air pressure was very low, and then she remembered that this was someone else's secret.
He may not want to be told by others!
Just when Yun Jiutang was thinking about giving up, he heard Mu Canglin ask: "What's the secret?"
This time, not only her, but also Bai Liran also cheered up, looking like they were all ears.
After receiving the approval of the rightful owner, Bian Hexuan immediately continued to talk.
"The royal family has an unwritten rule, that is, people with spiritual blood cannot ascend to the throne of God. Emperors of all dynasties have always abided by this rule!
Moreover, this rule was only circulated among emperors of the past dynasties, and few outsiders knew about it. Emperor Yuanshuo came to the throne in a shady way, so naturally he had no way of knowing about it! "Bian Hexuan said, once again raising the issue of the origin of the current emperor.
Yun Jiutang thought to himself that this man probably really hated Emperor Yuan Shuo, so he refused to open any pot in front of Mu Canglin again and again.
Mu Canglin was not irritated, and just said: "If that's the case, how did you know about it?"
"Mu Yuanzhao said it." Bian Hexuan said, "He wants to win over us at Jinghu Villa to help him recover, but we don't want to get involved in this matter."
Having said this, Yun Jiutang was instantly enlightened.
"Could this be his handiwork?"
Mu Yuanzhao deliberately designed Emperor Yuan Shuo to become a member of the Ling tribe, and the consequence of doing so was naturally to lose the throne.
but……
"What will happen if the Eldar ascend to the throne of God?"
