Peerless little medical concubine

Chapter 511 The Mystery in the Water
Acropolis, it is night.

Late autumn nights are always much brighter than usual.After the hour passed, Ning Erlan put on a night clothes and sneaked out of the inn with five hidden guards.

The streets of the Acropolis at night can be said to be completely deserted. Walking on the street, I only feel the cold wind blowing towards my face, and there is no trace of popularity.

She led the people to the back street mentioned by Xiao Er in today's store.After she returned to the inn during the day, she drew the map again. It is certain that the direction shown on the map is the direction of this side, which is in the back street.

It is also because no one dares to come here, and the back street is more eerie than the front street.

This street is actually the place closest to the city wall in the entire city. It takes less than half an hour for people to walk from the back street to the city gate at a walking speed.

The entire Backstreet block is still very large, and the waiter in the shop only said that this area is haunted, but he did not specifically say who reported it, or where the real haunted place is.

Ning Erlan planned to search carefully for every house, every house.

After reaching the back street, they sneaked into an old-looking house first.The size of this house is not small, and the things inside are complete, but it looks like no one has lived in it for a long time.

"Scatter around the courtyards to have a look, and pay attention to whether there are mechanisms under the bed or some things that cannot be lifted." She suspected that this area was shown on the map as the place where King Mingzhao made those monsters, but she thought Mingzhao Wang would never do it blatantly in broad daylight.In other words, the place shown on the map is probably not on the surface of the ground, but below!
"Yes." The hidden guards left one to follow Ning Erlan, and the remaining four scattered around the entire courtyard to search.

After about half an hour, Ning Erlan didn't find anything wrong after all the searching.

"It seems that no one has lived in this place for a long time, but why is it so humid in the back of this yard?" Ning Erlan stepped on the soil in the backyard and found that the soil here is soft and sticky. It should be planted with flowers and plants, but it seems that no one has taken care of it for a long time, but the soil quality seems to be watered frequently.

"Master, just behind this block, there is a lake. Sometimes the lake is relatively close, and this side is also affected." The dark guard who followed her said in a deep voice.

"Yes, I almost forgot, there is a lake behind." Ning Erlan had seen that lake on the map at that time. It was not very big, but the water source was very sufficient, and no one had ever heard of it. Where is the source of the lake?

One night, Ning Erlan followed the dark guards and searched for four or five houses, but they didn't find any flaws.

And she felt that the efficiency of their work was too low. When they really found something, they might have made another batch.

On the third day, Ning Erlan planned to go to the lake outside the city gate to have a look.I always feel that this lake has a great impact on the entire Acropolis.

The guards drove a relatively large carriage and took Ning Erlan to the lake outside the city.

The dark guard was right, the lake was indeed very close to the city gate.Ning Erlan got out of the carriage and looked around for a while, then returned to the carriage.He took out the tools she was carrying.She wants to see what will be drawn if she draws a picture here in this lake!

But when Ning Erlan pierced her arm, she felt a piercing pain.The pain made her chest convulse violently for a while.

She clutched her chest, panting heavily, and pressed her hand on the tiger's mouth. After a while, she felt that the suffocation just now was slightly relieved.

"Master, are you alright?" the guard asked anxiously when he heard the movement inside.

"I'm fine..." Ning Erlan breathed a sigh of relief, and sat down firmly against the wall of the car as if she had been reborn.

She raised her arm to look, and found that just now, the dripping blood had formed a fine map on her arm.

Enduring the pain in her chest, she quickly drew the map.Because this map can be maintained for a short time.

She also felt much better after drawing the map.

She opened the car curtain slightly and looked at the map in her hand. She was surprised to find that the address shown on the map was on the side of the lake!
In this slice of the lake!What means……

Could it be that King Ming Zhao's lair is in the water?No way... Those monsters can't swim...

She put down the map and stepped out of the carriage to the lake.The water in the lake is very clear, and you can see the bottom when you look down.If it really looks like what is shown on the map, then they have to go to the water to find it?

Do you want to be so cheating?To eliminate King Mingzhao, you have to go through ninety-nine and eighty-one hardships?
"Go find some people who are familiar with water." After all, it is shown on the map, so you have to go and see it.

"Yes."

Almost all the people the guards found grew up by the sea, and they were the ones who couldn't drown if they were thrown into the water.

"A few of you will go down to the water to have a look. If you find anything abnormal, report it immediately. The main thing is to look at the stone walls in the lake and see if there are any holes or anything like that."

Just in case, Ning Erlan asked people to find a long hemp rope and tied it around the waists of those people.

Originally, she wanted to act at night. There were no underwater lighting tools in ancient times, and they couldn't see at night.She could only send someone down at the risk of being discovered.

"Drive the carriage into the city, and we'll go into the water in another place, so that no one will find our whereabouts."

"Yes."

After getting ready, the guards all went down into the water.The autumn wind was blowing, Ning Erlan only felt an unspeakable chill from the cool wind blowing on her body.

The sky is very bright and the lake water is very clear, so even if they go down into the water, their people can still see the situation at the bottom of the lake clearly.

"I didn't expect you to have such a good nature. You come to this lake to fish in broad daylight."

A voice sounded, causing the guards around Ning Erlan to become alert.

Ning Erlan signaled them not to be nervous, and turned her eyes lightly to Lie Yan.It seems that this guy has been following him these days.

"Idle and boring."

Lie Yan didn't care, he would believe that Ning Erlan came here because she was idle and bored! "What? Did you find something? The place you're looking for isn't in the water, is it?"

Ning Erlan remained expressionless, and took a step back to distance herself from him. "I just heard that the fish in this lake is delicious, so I want to try it."

"Oh, actually, you don't have to hide it from me. I know what you are doing here in the Acropolis. I said that if we cooperate, I can definitely help you. And it won't hurt you." At least until you find it Won't……

Ning Erlan looked at him coldly.There was an undisguised chill in his eyes. "Okay, if you tell me your real identity, I might consider your proposal, how about it?"

"Real identity? It's not the first day we met. Didn't you check my bottom line? Now it's time to ask me."

They did check the bottom line of Lie Yan many times, but those were of no use to them. "If you say that it's your disguised identity, then I do know it. What I said is true. Of course, you don't have to say it now, because I will know it sooner or later. "

The smile on Lie Yan's lips became more dazzling, and he never moved away from looking at Ning Erlan. "Since when did you start to doubt?"

This is an indirect admission, as Ning Erlan said, he deliberately concealed his true identity.

"From the moment you appeared, I knew that you were not simple. But... the real doubt came after meeting Master Li..." Master Li, she met Wei Lingxiao on the unnamed island Yes, go to move the gold and silver leader.

At that time, she thought Master Li was very familiar. After seeing a scar on his hand during the fight, Ning Erlan confirmed his identity.

The reason why she knew Master Li was because he had always been by Lie Yan's side before.

After thinking about it for a while, Lie Yan knew what Ning Erlan meant.But there was no embarrassment on his face.

"I just hid the money on the island because I was afraid that others would covet my wealth." This reason is not unreasonable.

"Oh, then why did you ask Mr. Li to take out the money afterwards? Don't you feel scared at that time?"

Lie Yan was about to speak, but was interrupted by Ning Erlan. "You don't need to look for a reason anymore, it's you, right? Or it's the identity you used to disguise. At the beginning I suspected that you were Wei Ziming's person. Afterwards, I thought it was too simple. You don't obey orders. Anyone, you only do things for yourself. But what I don't understand is, what is your purpose?"

Back then, when she and Wei Lingxiao went to Huocheng to meet the Guan family, there was an extra Bai Ran.Although he said that he was sent by Wei Ziming, Bai Ran didn't return to Bianjing afterward, but just disappeared.

"Papapa..." Lie Yan had no choice but to reach out and give Ning Erlan a high five.This woman is much more powerful than he imagined.

"Sure enough, it's Princess Ling. She really lives up to her reputation. But have you ever thought about it, the gold and silver are not in my hands in the end."

"No? Maybe, but you don't have to provoke the relationship between me and Guan Furan. Do you think I will let a friend who has been with me for many years not believe me, and trust a person who is plotting against me everywhere?"

After the words fell, the smile on Lie Yan's face finally fell.He half-closed his eyes and looked at Ning Erlan.
