Koi Fleeing Famine: I Picked Up a Chief Assistant as a Husband

Chapter 243 Gouging Out the Grave
Jun Moyu shook her head angrily and said: "This is too ridiculous, not to mention that Ji Shengquan has been dead for so long, even if the blood is exchanged, it should only be useful when the person still has a breath!"

"Ji Mingcheng has gone crazy, he doesn't understand that much at all, and I'm not wrong, the reason why Yan Wen was abused is because Ji Mingcheng was in the trial." Shen Lanze said, his voice gradually became lower, but his expression became more dignified.

Jun Moyu clenched the secretary in his hand and hesitated for a moment, looked at Shen Lanze and said, "Be careful in everything."

Shen Lanze came to Ji Shengquan's tomb alone, and happened to see Ji Mingcheng offering incense.

Ji Mingcheng didn't know about this, he arranged the sacrifices and lit the candles.

He stroked the stele and said softly, "Son, father will never let you die so early, father will definitely find a way to save you! It's all because father didn't protect you well!"

Ji Mingcheng seemed to be caught in some kind of painful memory, his voice trembled, and he said intermittently: "Father will never let those who love you live..."

"Father will not let them go easily! Daddy will make them pay a terrible price, and you will soon come back to life. Daddy will not let you die like this. You will live and live well." Ji Mingcheng murmured telling.

The cemetery is very quiet, only the sound of the wind blowing through the leaves rustling can be heard.

After Ji Mingcheng left, Shen Lanze hesitated to follow him, and followed him from a distance.

Ji Mingcheng didn't go back to the capital, but went to Qingshi Village, he walked in skillfully, came to the village and entered the Xiangu Temple.

He knelt down in front of the Fairy Goddess Temple with his hands clasped together and kowtowed, "I pray for the Fairy Goddess to bless my son to live, and I would like to give ten years of life in exchange."

And there was a golden box in front of the Xiangu Temple, with strange patterns carved on it, giving people a weird feeling.

But the pattern drawn on it made Shen Lanze feel familiar. He suddenly thought that this pattern seemed to have been seen in that ancient book, no wonder it felt familiar!

After kowtowing several times, Ji Mingcheng took out a small bottle from his arms, uncorked the bottle and poured the bright red liquid into the box in front of the statue of Xiangu.

Shen Lanze quickly entered the Xiangu Temple after he left, and raised his hand to touch the dropped liquid.

It turned out to be blood!

Whose blood will this be?And what's in that box?Why pour blood?

Shen Lanze became a little worried, could it be Yan Wen?

This made him chase out in a hurry, but unfortunately the figure outside had already disappeared.

In desperation, he had no choice but to go back first. When the sky was dark, he brought Deadpool to Ji Shengquan's grave. Just as the two of them were trying to dig the grave, a burst of fire came.

I saw the fifth prince and Han Feng coming, also holding tools, jumping down to help without saying a word.

Shen Lanze frowned and asked with a smile: "This is the fifth prince?"

"I'm bored with nothing to do, come here to help loosen the soil." Jun Moyu didn't care about her prince's image at all, and even worked harder than them digging graves.

The corners of the mouths of the three couldn't help twitching. If they let others know that the dignified prince of a country digs someone else's grave here, he might be drowned in spit, right?

Obviously, Jun Moyu didn't mind what others thought, and after digging for more than half an hour, he finally found the coffin.

And the moment the coffin was opened, Shen Lanze's guess was confirmed. Sure enough, there was only one piece of clothing inside, and there was no Ji Shengquan's body.

"It looks like I expected." Shen Lanze muttered to himself.

Jun Moyu and Shen Lanze climbed up, leaving Han Feng and Deadpool to continue to bury the grave. Seeing the people who were drifting away, the two looked at each other, and they both saw a trace of helplessness in each other's eyes.

On the way back, Jun Moyu took out a key, "This is sent by Xiao Mengying's maidservant. If you find a chance to rescue Luo Qingyan, maybe everything will come to light."

Shen Lanze took the key and nodded, maybe Luo Qingyan could give them some clues.

……

Lu Nanzhi would go out from the secret passage every day to look for clues, and come back before dark. After going back and forth several times, Chen Xi finally realized that something was wrong.

Today he deliberately waited at the door, and when he saw someone coming out, he asked, "You stayed in the room all day, don't you feel a little bored?"

"No, no." Lu Nanzhi was startled when he saw the people outside the door, and found that it was Chen Xi who breathed a sigh of relief.

"Where have you been?" Chen Xi asked directly when he saw the person who was still pretending to be confused.

"I'm in the room, why are you so weird today?" Lu Nanzhi ignored him and walked straight to the kitchen.

Chen Xi grabbed her wrist, his expression was no longer as gentle as before, "I went to the room today, but you were not in it at all? Then how did you get out of it?"

Ever since he knew that there was no one in the room, he had been waiting for her outside the door.

"As I said, it's inside." Lu Nanzhi shook off his hand forcefully and left in a hurry.

Chen Xi stared at the direction where she disappeared, frowned slightly, and suddenly felt a strong sense of uneasiness in her heart, always feeling that something was going to happen.

Just like before, my heart beat violently.

No, no, he won't let it happen again!

Since that day, Chen Xi has been by her side every step of the way, for fear that any accident will happen.

Lu Nanzhi had no choice but to confess, telling about Yan Wen and the secret passage in the room.

"I hoped to rescue Yan Wen, but I didn't want to hurt Shen Lanze, so I slipped out quietly."

Lu Nanzhi looked at him and said expectantly, "Can you help me?"

Chen Xi didn't agree immediately, Chen Xi was silent for a long time, his eyes changed a lot.

"What are you going to do?"

"I want to save people through secret passages." Lu Nanzhi immediately explained his plan, and at the same time, he also talked about Qingshi Village.

When she wasn't paying attention, a strange light flashed across Chenxi's eyes. It turned out that the place he had been looking for was far away in the sky and right in front of him, and it really took no effort at all.

"Okay, I'll help you, but you owe me one more time." Chen Xi said with a smile.

Lu Nanzhi rubbed his nose and said in a low voice, "Anyway, I have already owed so many times, so I don't care about owed one more time."

Of course, she didn't dare to say this out loud, so she could only whisper it to herself.

Chen Xi saw her lips move slightly, but didn't hear what he was saying clearly.

"What did you say?"

Lu Nanzhi managed to squeeze out a bright smile, and looked at him with his chin raised, "I want to ask when can we leave?"

She sent out some petals in the woods yesterday, as well as the fabric on the branches. They were the petals she put in the sachet she sewed. It should be that when Ji Mingcheng took Yan Wen away, the sachet was accidentally cut and scattered by the branches.

This just gave her a clue to find Yan Wen. As long as they followed the petals, they would be able to find the place where Yan Wen was imprisoned.

Chen Xi was silent for a long time, and finally agreed to her. He will follow him to look for Yan Wen tomorrow, and rest well today.
