Conspiracy

Chapter 229 Demon Gu【Shi Huan Sundial】

Xiao Chuhong took Su Zhen directly out of the capital city, and the moment they left the city, several fast horses and identical carriages headed in various directions, so as to confuse the pursuers and the royal party.

They went around and around for an unknown number of times, and finally, after confirming that there were no pursuers, they came to the edge of a certain mountain's cliff.

Xiao Chuhong hugged her and jumped down without hesitation. Estimating the height, he drew his sword with one hand and stabbed fiercely into the cliff. The speed of falling slowed down, deep scratches were drawn on the wall, and sparks from the friction flew everywhere, shattering Stones kept falling from above their heads.

Su Zhen was tightly held in Xiao Chuhong's arms, and her cheek was pressed against Xiao Chuhong's chest. At this moment, she felt a sense of stability that she had never felt before.

When they landed firmly on the platform extending from the edge of the cliff, many birds were startled.

Just as Xiao Chuhong untied Su Zhen's acupuncture points, she immediately pushed him away, took two steps back, the stones at her feet rolled down the cliff, and she glanced down, covered in mist, even she was a little dizzy when she often flew in the air.

"Xiao Chuhong! What exactly do you and Mr. Dongli want to do?!"

"You don't need to ask more. In short, we won't let you have anything to do, but you can't enter the palace to see the emperor now."

"Why? Speak clearly! I didn't kill anyone, so why did I run away?"

"The deaths of Xiyan, Li Jieyu and Mute Nu are not as simple as you think. If Miss Yue is behind the scenes, she must be planning a big conspiracy."

"Of course I know! Hey, wait, Miss Yue? No, weren't you stupid at the time? Well, you, are you kidding me again?!"

Seeing her becoming angry and wanting to beat him to vent her anger, Xiao Chuhong's expression became more serious, "The woman in red you saw last night was Li Jieyu, but what I saw before I fell unconscious was a woman in green."

"You mean Xiyan?"

"I haven't seen her portrait, but Shi Huandiao can't lie."

"What? You mean that Shi Huandial who is known as a demon? It turns out that Li Jieyu's blue water jadeite bracelet is actually a divine artifact! It's so good to pretend!"

Su Zhen looked at the thin wooden rope coiled around her wrist, Yin Shen is still not awake yet, he was actually injured by Shi Huangui.

"You really know a lot."

"I've only heard of it. The Shi Huan Sundial is an ancient artifact that can reverse time. But it is also known as a magic gu. It sucks blood and can use people's desires to help them achieve their wishes."

"Then do you know why Yue Xian'er can be resurrected again and again?"

Su Zhen shook her head, "Her blood contains the spiritual power of Naiyuanguo. Could it be that her body has undergone a mutation, like a cat demon with nine lives?"

"You think too much. After she ate the corpse of her own relatives, she became insane and even set her own house on fire. Li Yu was separated from Yue Xian'er's body at that time."

Su Zhen was shocked when she heard the words, could it be that her memory was temporarily sealed because of Li Yu's departure, so she didn't see the bloody scene when she used the empathy technique on Yue Xian'er?
"General Xiao, do you mean that the reason why Li Yu exists is because she endured extremely twisted pain for Yue Xian'er?"

"Ah."

"Then Xiyan, who went to Jiangnan, is carrying her expectation and desire for freedom?"

"Ah."

The expressions of the two gradually became serious, Su Zhen rubbed the center of her brows, "It's useless for you to save me, but it will expose your years of forbearance to others, why bother?"

"Compared to you, those twists and turns are nothing."

"." Su Zhen avoided Xiao Chuhong's affectionate eyes, and touched her nose in embarrassment, "Is what you said before true?"

"You think I'm lying?"

"But in your eyes, I am a man!"

"I do not mind."

He doesn't mind!But she minds!

Su Zhen is at a loss for words, what is the difference between her playing the piano and the other cow?Adding up her two lives, this age is more than enough to be Xiao Chuhong's ancestors, so it's not just an old cow eating young grass? !
She coughed twice and changed the subject, "Originally, I didn't want to investigate this case anymore, but just now on the way to the palace, I kept thinking about Mr. Yu's words. I thought I was so selfish, and I died tragically one after another. Deceiving oneself and others, not giving justice to the dead."

Regarding Su Zhen's deliberate avoidance, Xiao Chuhong didn't intend to back down after feeling lonely, so he gave a wry smile, raised his hand and landed on her head, and rubbed it lightly to show comfort.

"It's okay, don't be afraid, I'm here."

Su Zhen pushed his hand away and said, "Actually, I thought a lot in the prison last night, but I still feel that the dumb slave is not dead. Compared with what happened after Li Jieyu and Xiyan died, her body did not suffer any harm." The flame burned, but directly turned into a skeleton, I have three thoughts."

He said lightly, "Well, tell me."

"One, Xiyan and the others just want to use the dead body as a cover to escape by feigning death.

As for Erma, it is assumed that the bodies of the three of them will quickly wither into bones after death.In order not to let this secret be discovered, someone burned their bodies.At the moment, I can only suspect that the change in the corpse was due to the effect of the Nurse Fruit in Yue Xian'er's real body blood.

Thirdly, my friend was seriously injured by the owner of Shi Huan Dial and has not woken up to this day.I think he must have discovered their secret, so he wanted to silence him. "

She once asked Mo Sheng to find Mi Yao to solve his doubts, but she disappeared again, as if deliberately avoiding her.

Shi Huan sundial, porcelain doll, Tieryuan fruit. What is the relationship between them?

well!Had I known that she would have stopped thinking wildly at the time, maybe I could have found some clues from the fragments given by Shi Huandiao.

and many more!

"Huh? General Xiao, if you had been playing dumb then, you should have seen those fragments too. Then do you know why Yue Xian'er followed Jing Yao into the palace?"

"I don't know, I didn't see it."

He answered so quickly, it must be fake!
Su Zhen tilted her head and looked up at him, "Did you really see something?"

Xiao Chuhong lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, then called out, "Zhenzhen."

"Ok?"

"If you insist on uncovering the truth, it will make you regret ten thousand times more painful than restarting Yue Xianer's nightmare. Do you still want to reveal it?"

"."

Su Zhen's smile froze, and she returned to her expressionless face, "Master Yu is right, to find out the truth, and to give justice to the deceased is my duty and obligation as the Ya Shaoqing of the Siwei's Mansion. Besides, I don't want to lose without knowing it." Not white."

Xiao Chuhong nodded, turned around, and slammed his palm on the stone wall. In Su Zhen's surprised eyes, there was a "rumbling" sound from the stone wall, a stone door rose upwards, and dust and gravel kept falling.

Su Zhen covered her mouth and nose, a dark cave appeared in front of her eyes, the light inside was so dim that she couldn't see the end at a glance.

"General Xiao, where is this?"

"follow me."

"Oh."

Xiao Chuhong held Su Zhen's hand very naturally. The latter's ears were hot, and he was about to break free, but he heard him say, "There are organs on the ground, follow me closely."

"Oh, got it."

Hearing Su Zhen's compromise, the corners of Xiao Chuhong's lips twitched as his back was turned to her.

Of course, he didn't know that no matter how dark the light was, it wouldn't affect Su Zhen who possessed clairvoyance. She just wanted to accommodate him once on a whim.

After they stepped into the stone gate, Xiao Chuhong took a step forward, only to hear a 'click' from his feet, and the stone gate behind him closed in response.He snapped his fingers at the same time, and clusters of white flames flew out from the stone wall, illuminating their path in a small area.
