son, don't mess around

Chapter 145 The Stubborn Master and Servant

silence.

Zhiyuan lowered her eyes, stared at the wound on her left arm, pursed her lips lightly, and carefully covered the surface of the wound with the cloth, gently wrapped her other hand a few times to cover the wound.

Although it was a bit rudimentary, fortunately, the wound was successfully bandaged.

After finishing all this, she breathed a sigh of relief, raised her eyes, and saw Lin Jiangnian who was watching the play with his arms folded, and the smile on his face gradually froze.

This woman... is really strong!

Zhiyuan looked up at Lin Jiangnian, then lowered her head slightly.

I'm afraid no one thought that the master and servant would meet again under such circumstances.

After the wound was bandaged and treated, Zhi Yuan grabbed the green sword on the ground and began to look at the secret room.

This is an extremely simple secret room, with cold and damp stone walls, except for the dim light, there are only passages extending in all directions.

Seeing this scene, Zhiyuan frowned slightly.

She tracked it all the way, but she didn't expect to be delayed by a hidden weapon in the passage, allowing the uncle and nephew to escape.Right now I have lost track of someone, there are many passages around, I don't know where to go to chase.

At this moment, Lin Jiangnian's voice came from behind: "They ran to the road in front of you."

Zhiyuan was about to take a step, but suddenly stopped, realized something, turned her head: "How do you know?"

"seen it myself."

Lin Jiangnian smiled, "If you go after them now, you may still have a chance to catch up with them."

"However, I advise you not to chase after him!"

Zhi Yuan stared at Lin Jiangnian, with some doubts on his cold face.

"There are many traps in this secret room. No matter how good your martial arts are, it's hard to guard against an arrow from the back."

Lin Jiangyou shook his head and glanced at her left hand, "Their uncle and nephew were obviously prepared. If you go after them alone, it is very likely that you will continue to fall into the trap and even lose your life."

With Zhiyuan's martial arts, he was also injured in the passage just now.Who can guarantee that Wang Changjin didn't have a backup?

If you continue to chase, you may run into some danger.

The kite was silent.

She also realized the reminder in Lin Jiangnian's words.Looking down at his left hand, he looked a little unwilling.

After a while, she said in a deep voice, "The two of them cannot be allowed to leave this place alive."

"Why?" Lin Jiangnian asked back.

The kite didn't speak.

Lin Jiangnian sneered: "What? Are you planning to hide it from my son?"

Zhiyuan whispered, "You shouldn't have come."

"Why?"

Zhi Yuan didn't explain, Lin Jiangnian appeared in Xunyang City, and there was an uproar in Xunyang City, she naturally knew about it long ago.Even when she heard the news, she had some guesses in her heart...he came after her.

From Linjiang city to the capital city, although they will pass through Yanzhou on the way, they will not go along the way with Xunyang County. If they deliberately make a detour, it will take a few more days to travel.

Therefore, the reason why Lin Jiangnian will appear in Xunyang County is self-evident.

When seeing Lin Jiangnian at this moment, Zhi Yuan confirmed the guess in her heart.

Zhiyuan's eyes were complicated, and after a while, she said expressionlessly, "It's very dangerous."

"Danger?"

Lin Jiang smiled young: "Are you caring about this son?"

The kite said nothing.

Lin Jiangnian smiled again: "Since it's dangerous, why are you here?"

"Aren't you afraid of death?"

Zhiyuan's eyes were slightly cold: "I will not die."

Lin Jiangnian glanced at her injured left arm, but did not expose this stubborn woman.

Zhiyuan was silent for a moment, put away the green sword in her hand, and walked towards the passage ahead.

Obviously, she will continue to chase the pair of uncles and nephews!

However, when she just reached the entrance of the passage, she stopped again, looked back at Lin Jiangnian behind her, and was silent for a moment: "Why are you here?"

"Can't my son come?"

"It's dangerous here..."

As if realizing that she had said something nonsense, Zhiyuan glanced around: "Are you alone?"

"if not?"

"Where's Lin Qingqing?"

Zhiyuan's eyes were slightly serious, and her tone was slightly cold.

Before she left Linwang Mansion, she ordered Lin Qingqing to stay close at every step to protect His Royal Highness.Now that he appeared in such a dangerous place, why was Lin Qingqing missing?

Lin Qingqing didn't carry out her order?
Still, what happened?
"she is not here."

Lin Jiangnian waved his hand: "Don't look, there is only this son here."

Zhiyuan frowned deeply, "How did you get in here by yourself?"

She even wanted to ask how Lin Jiangnian found this place.

Was it unintentional, or... following her?

"It's also thanks to you."

Lin Jiangnian said in a relaxed tone, "If you hadn't attracted their attention in front, I'm afraid I wouldn't have broken in so easily."

Zhiyuan remained silent, looking at Lin Jiangnian in front of her, hesitating.

The appearance of Lin Jiangnian disrupted her plan.This place is full of dangers, apart from the passage mechanism, there are still many master figures in this secret room.

It's okay for her to protect herself, but with Lin Jiangnian's martial arts strength staying here, she will undoubtedly die.

After hesitating for a moment, Zhiyuan said in a deep voice, "The two of them cannot stay."

Lin Jiangnian raised his eyebrows: "So?"

Zhiyuan thought for a while and looked at him: "Are you staying here? Or, come with me?"

invite?
Lin Jiangnian was a little surprised, and chuckled lightly: "Aren't you afraid that this son will hold you back?"

Zhiyuan was silent for a moment.

"will not."

Then, she turned around and walked towards the secret room passage without looking back.

Gao Leng, don't talk much!

Seeing this, Lin Jiangnian looked playfully.

I haven't seen her for so long, but she still hasn't changed!
Whether it's the tone of speech or attitude, there is no slightest gesture that should be flattering and flattering to the master.

She is still her, that little maid with personality.

After Lin Jiangnian took a few glances, he quickly followed.

The life and death of Wang Changjin's uncle and nephew is not important to Lin Jiangnian, but after discovering such a big secret of the Wang family, he naturally knows that the pair of uncles and nephews will not let it go.

For Lin Jiangnian, what he needs to do now is to wait.Wait for someone, wait for Lin Qingqing to bring someone to arrive.When Lin Qingqing arrived with people, everything would be settled.

But before that, staying by Zhi Yuan's side was the safest choice.

The two of them, one in front of the other, walked in the dark passage.Zhiyuan walked in front, staring at her surroundings vigilantly to prevent surprise attacks by the agency's cold arrows.

She didn't walk fast, Lin Jiangnian followed closely behind, looking at the familiar figure in front of her through the dim light, with a heroic bearing, cold eyes and arrogance.

Under the long gown in blue, the woman's beautiful and graceful body was outlined, and when she got close, she could smell a faintly familiar and pleasant scent from Zhiyuan's body.

It's like aromatherapy, with a bit of a woman's unique fragrance.

I thought that the reunion with Zhiyuan would be at a certain time, or when she was in danger, but Lin Jiangnian stepped forward and rescued the beauty with an old-fashioned vulgar hero, which moved her so much, Promise...

The routine is old, but it definitely works!
It's a pity that I didn't expect that the two would meet without warning in this dilapidated secret room.

And, no surprises!
Apart from the astonishment she felt when she saw Lin Jiangnian, Zhi Yuan didn't show any surprise at all.

In addition, maybe it's been a long time since they haven't seen each other for a long time, but there is some kind of relationship between the two of them?
Can't tell!

But thinking about it again, the relationship between the two doesn't seem to be that good?

Even when they were in the palace, the relationship between the two could only be regarded as easing, and they were not familiar with each other.

Thinking about it this way, it seems reasonable again.

……

At the same time, the two wandered around in the passage of the secret room for a long time, and finally realized that something was wrong.

"This is the road we just walked."

Zhiyuan stopped in her tracks, looked at the position in front of her, her gaze gradually became serious.

"Are we lost?"

Lin Jiangnian looked around. He remembered that he seemed to pass by here just now, but he didn't expect to return to the same place.

Zhiyuan frowned slightly, raised her eyes and glanced around, feeling something was wrong, and walked towards another road.

After half an hour.

When the two returned to the original point again, they finally realized that something was wrong.

"It's not lost!"

Lin Jiangnian said, "I'm afraid their uncle and nephew moved the mechanism in the secret passage, blocking the way out, so we can only detour around the same place!"

He remembered seeing Wang Changjin activate the passage switch of the secret room before, and realized that there were many organs in the secret passage, and there were also stone gates.

"It seems that we are trapped in it."

Zhiyuan frowned, scanned the surroundings, and began to search for a way out.

"Don't look for it, I can't find it."

Lin Jiangnian shook his head lightly: "This secret room is more complicated than imagined, I'm really trapped in it, it's as difficult as going out..."

Although he said so, Lin Jiangnian's tone was relaxed, his expression was relaxed, and he didn't feel much panic when he was trapped.

Zhiyuan didn't speak, and the pair of bright and cold eyes under the bamboo hat scanned the surroundings, then slowly approached the wall next to it, reached out to stroke the wall lightly, tapped it lightly, frowned slightly, and slowly walked down the wall.

Lin Jiangnian looked at this scene with some surprise, wanting to see what she would do next, but saw Zhiyuan suddenly stop in front of a stone wall, and took two steps back.

"There is a way out!"

Zhiyuan suddenly spoke.

"The way out?"

Lin Jiangnian was surprised: "How do you know?"

"call out!"

A cold light flashed in the passage, the green sword was unsheathed, Zhi Yuan held the green sword and swung it down!

The green sword landed on the stone wall, making a roaring and ear-piercing sound.Accompanied by this loud noise, the stone wall was pierced by the green sword and collapsed.

The light was cast along the stone wall, and a passage appeared in front of the two of them.

The expression on Lin Jiangnian's face was stunned, is this okay?

Zhi Yuan didn't speak, but turned her head to look at Lin Jiangnian expressionlessly, then bent down and got out from behind the stone wall passage.

Lin Jiangnian stood where he was. For some reason, he always felt that the woman's eyes just now seemed to be showing off.
However, Lin Jiangnian didn't care as much as she did.Drilling out along the stone wall passage, when seeing the scene in front of him, he was slightly taken aback.

familiar!

Isn't this secret room the place where he and Lin Qingqing visited before?

Is there a secret room where the Wang family hides armor and weapons?

Turned back?

Outside the secret room, the guards on the ground disappeared, as did the gray-robed man's body. There were bloodstains on the ground, as well as traces of fighting with swords and swords all around.

Zhiyuan stepped here, looked around, and frowned slightly.

She remembered that she had never been here, but why were there traces of fighting?

Following the traces left on the surrounding stone walls, she quickly deduced that there was a fight here not long ago, and it was extremely intense.

"Are there any other masters?"

Zhiyuan bowed her head and whispered silently, scanning her surroundings, her gaze quickly fell on the secret room not far away.

"What's hidden in here?"

Zhiyuan stared at it for a while, her eyes light up slightly.

She approached the secret room, pulled out the blue sword in her hand, and aimed at the door of the secret room to drop a few swords.

The speed is extremely fast, and the blade is fierce!
However, the door of this secret room is obviously not an ordinary stone wall. I don't know what material it is made of, and it is extremely hard.

A few swords fell, and there were only a few more marks on the gate.

Seeing this scene, Zhiyuan frowned even deeper.

There is a fight here, which proves that someone has been here.There are bloodstains and traces of footsteps entering and leaving the door of the secret room, which shows that the things hidden in this secret room are not simple.

I'm afraid it's exactly what she's looking for.

But... Can't get in?

At this moment, Lin Jiangnian's voice came from behind: "Do you want to go in and have a look?"

Zhiyuan looked back slightly, glanced at him, nodded slightly, and said nothing.

"You can't get in like this."

Lin Jiangnian shook his head lightly.

Zhiyuan was silent: "Do you have other ways?"

"Of course there is."

Zhi Yuan was taken aback by Lin Jiangnian's answer, a little unbelievable.

He has a way?

Zhi Yuan's eyes fell on Lin Jiangnian, seeing Lin Jiangnian walking in front of the Shimen, she must have groped around, and quickly found the switch, revealing the location of the Shimen key.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Jiangnian took out a key from his pocket and inserted it into the secret room.

"Boom!"

The door to the secret room slowly rose.

Paper Kite: "..."

Seeing the door of the secret room opened, Zhiyuan fell into silence.

"You have the key?"

"Yup!"

"Why didn't you take it out sooner?"

"You didn't say that!"

"..."

Zhiyuan's bare hands hidden under her sleeves clenched into fists, then released them, took a deep breath, and turned her gaze away.

"Where did you get the key?"

"Pick it up."

Zhi Yuan remained expressionless, and Shen Qingning stepped into the secret room coldly.

Lin Jiangnian stood where he was, looking at the key in his hand, and then at the cold back of the little maid, shaking his head lightly.

This little maid really can't take any jokes.

Lin Jiangnian raised his eyebrows and glanced at the key in the palm of his hand. It was taken away when he left not long ago, and he didn't expect it to be used.

He walked into the secret room and saw Zhiyuan standing aside, looking at the armor and weapons in the wooden box in the secret room, silent.

Her eyes were not as surprised as when Lin Jiangnian and Lin Qingqing first came.

It seems, already known?
Seeing Zhiyuan was silent for a long time, Lin Jiangnian stepped forward from behind.

"Is this why you forced your way here today?"

The kite stared at the contents of the wooden box, but did not open its mouth.

"Or, you already knew the secret of the royal family's collaboration with foreign countries?"

Lin Jiangnian spoke.

He vaguely guessed the purpose of the kite.

Zhiyuan regained consciousness slightly, took a deep breath, her tone seemed a little cold.

"The Wang family not only has an affair with a foreign country, but also has the intention of treason."

"rebellion?"

Lin Jiangnian frowned and asked, "How do you say that?"

Zhi Yuan was about to speak, but suddenly noticed something, and turned to look outside the door.

"Boom!"

With this loud noise, the door of the original secret room crashed down.
