Destroyed outside, gold and jade inside

Chapter 183 I Have Already Done

Su Yi's heart was thumping so badly, the maid would come back after she had eaten, and cut off the flesh of her body piece by piece as she said, seeing the white bones on her body, seeing the beating of her heart, but And keep her alive.How much does that hurt?How scary?
She just wanted to go back to her and offend her, she just wanted to live a better life, not to be ostracized and despised, she betrayed the news of her, and in the end she was just used by her, how could she be guilty of this?
The lady is the most cruel and vengeful person!She was just a little bit sorry for the lady, and she was tortured by the lady like this?She refuses to accept it!Not convinced!

She can't just wait to die!Never!

Su Yi took a deep breath, gathered all her strength, and moved her body.Those two thick maidservants are really not Bai Chang's thick body, they are so strong, the rope is so tightly tied, she can't even move.

Su Yi struggled with all her strength, her wrist suddenly slipped out of the rope.

Her heart skipped a beat, her face turned pale instantly due to excitement, she was afraid that the servant girl would find something strange when she turned around, so she didn't dare to struggle too violently, so she flipped her hands behind her, trying to break free from the rope.

But only the wrist was free from restraint, and the rope on his body was still firm.While struggling, his wrist rubbed against the rough pillar, and the skin was worn out, causing burning pain.

It hurts so much if the skin is worn out, but if the flesh is cut off piece by piece, what would it be like?

It was as if a tense nerve had been stimulated by pain.Su Yi didn't know where the strength came from, and leaned the rope against the pillar, and didn't care whether his wrist would be scratched, so he rubbed against the rope with all his might.

"Why haven't you come back? You said it was Xiaojie, you must have lied to me again! Greedy girl!" The thick maid frowned and complained.

Looking back at Su Yi, Su Yi immediately stopped all movements and lowered her head to look like she was dying.

The servant girl snorted coldly, then moved a few steps closer to the gate of the courtyard, and looked out with her head.

The rope on Su Yi's body loosened.Her heart almost jumped out of her throat.

Almost at the fastest speed in her life, she grabbed a thick barbed wooden stick that looked like it was used for execution, and made two steps in three steps, and ran behind the thick servant girl. A stick was knocked down.

The servant girl rolled her eyes and passed out without humming.

Su Yi dropped the stick and wanted to leave, but suddenly turned around, grabbed the thin knife that was thrown aside by the maidservant and held it in her hand.She has come to this point, if she encounters an accident along the way, she will not stop dying!

Holding a thin knife in her hand, Su Yi quickly rushed to the execution yard.

Night shrouded Prince Qi's Mansion, and the high eaves of the main courtyard could be seen to have hung lanterns.

At this moment, most of the servants were eating, and the palace courtyard was extremely quiet, and the execution yard was also remote, so few people passed by on weekdays, especially at this moment.

Su Yi groped to the corner door closest to the execution yard based on memory.She vaguely remembered that there was a small door leading to the outside, it was locked during the day, and only opened half a time at night, in order to make it easier for the corpses in the execution yard to be carried out at night, so as not to bring bad luck to the master.

When she heard this statement, she still felt that the opening of the small door was bad luck, but she never thought that one day, she would leave this door, let alone that she would expect the small door to be open like now .

Su Yi hid in the dark and looked around, the small door was not guarded, and only when he got closer did he see that there was a strong big lock on the door.

All of a sudden, sweat broke out on her body, the lock is so big, how do you open it?

Gesticating with the thin knife in her hand, she felt a little desperate, and pulled the lock violently without giving up. The big lock made a rattling sound, which shocked her, and there was no change at all.

Su Yi bit her lip, almost biting her mouth to bleed.This small door is not big, but the courtyard wall is very high.

She wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead, pressed the thin knife in her hand against the lock and sharpened it in despair, trying to cut open the big lock with the knife.

She knew that she didn't have much time, and the servants and maids would soon find out that she was gone, but she had no strength to restrain the chicken, how could she twist the big lock?
"Click—" There was a crisp sound.

Su Yi was startled, and looked down stiffly, the seemingly strong lock was actually opened!
It turns out that the place where the keyholes are connected is not very thick, as if it has been ground in advance, and there is only a little connection left, and it is not completely disconnected.The thin knife in her hand was very sharp, and just cut off the last bit of broken root.

Su Yi's heart almost jumped out of her throat, she pulled off the big lock and pushed open the small door.

Night Breeze rushed towards his face with the smell of rebirth.

Drenched in sweat, she clenched the thin knife tightly in her hand and hurried out the door. The figure who staggered slightly but didn't dare to slow down disappeared into the night.

"Miss, Su Yi injured the servant girl in the execution courtyard and escaped." Dan Xin whispered in Shen Xin Niang's ear.

Shen Xinniang nodded, her face didn't seem too surprised, she was about to instruct Dan Xin to see if the girl was seriously injured, but she heard steady footsteps coming up the room.

Shen Xinniang waved Dan Xin back to the side.

The curtain at the main entrance was raised, and Fang Yan's tall figure stepped inside, looking at her with burning eyes.

"I read the almanac. Tomorrow is suitable for offering sacrifices, asking for heirs, crowning, entering the population, meeting relatives and friends, setting up a door, setting up a bed, and moving." Fang Yan sat down opposite her.

Dan Xin hurriedly served tea, and by the way raised her eyes to look at the lady's expression, will the lady have a happy expression?After looking at it, I was a little disappointed. There was no change at all on the lady's fair and beautiful face.

"Oh, is there any clue to what you're probing?" Shen Xinniang asked slowly.

"Yes, Yu Tai has a lot of Taoist priests and alchemists around him." Fang Yan seemed a little thirsty, and after drinking a big mouthful of tea, he said slowly, "Maybe it's because he is afraid of death. He has a lot of knowledge about Taoist priests and alchemists who can make alchemy." Great love, over the years, has also attracted many practitioners from sects to surround him."

"It's not surprising, there were quite a few Taoist priests he brought to Lingshan back then." Shen Xinniang nodded.

"There are five people he trusts the most, and they are also called the five guardians by the Taoist priests around him." Fang Yan suddenly changed, "The weather seems to be good tomorrow?"

Shen Xinniang put down the tea bowl and looked up at him, "Your Highness, let's get down to business first."

Fang Yan smiled, "Which thing I said is not serious?"

Shen Xinniang didn't speak again when she heard the words, she just looked at him silently and waited for the next sentence.

Fang Yan looked at her for a moment, and her black and white eyes were indeed brighter and more beautiful than when they were all boundless black before, "The most favored of these five people is Zhang Mingzhi from the Maoshan Shangqing School, There is also Huang Shuaiyin, Zhang Mingzhi's younger brother. The other three are Lu Bei, Zhou Jisheng, and Lin Langjun, the big disciples of the Huoshan Jingming Sect."

Shen Xinniang's eyes were fixed, "Zhang Mingzhi?"

"Somewhat familiar?" Fang Yan hooked the corner of his mouth.

Shen Xinniang nodded slightly.

"On the way back, I met the yamen soldiers searching for the thieves, and then suddenly appeared, and the Taoist priest who attacked you was him." Fang Yan said, "Ziyang Master knows him. He is masked, and Ziyang Master can recognize him at a glance. Call him Daoist Zhang. It can be seen that the two have had contacts in the past."

Shen Xinniang nodded and did not speak.

"He dared to come alone, he must have something to rely on, and he thinks he is doing well. To gain Yu Tai's trust and become Yu Tai's No. 1, it is not bad." Fang Yan said.

"How are the five of them related?" Shen Xinniang asked.

"Although they come from two sects, the five of them get along very well, and they have never had any disputes and fights with Yu Tai." Fang Yan smiled, "You want to start with people around Yu Tai?"

Shen Xinniang shook her head and said, "I don't think so, I've already done it."

Fang Yan was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly took out a booklet from her arms and handed it to her.

Shen Xinniang took it with her hand and opened it to read.It turned out to be a biography of a character with a small portrait, flipping it down casually, and the five guardians beside Yu Tai, Zhang Mingzhi and others are all there.The font is clear and meaningful, and it penetrates the back of the paper. Every stroke seems to be done with care.This font is familiar to her.

She squeezed the booklet in her hand, and looked up at Fang Yan.It's not that she can't see or feel his intentions and concerns, although it's not a big deal.But above all the little things, there is even more sincerity.

As a cautious person of Yu Tai, it may not be difficult to inquire about news from him, but if one wants to inquire in detail, it is not easy.

Not only did Fang Yan do it within three days, but he even took time out of his busy schedule to write this biography for her himself, instead of ordering his subordinates to do it.It would be a lie to say I wasn't touched at all.

"The weather will be fine tomorrow." Shen Xinniang said suddenly.

Fang Yan smiled when she heard the words, "Xin'er can watch the weather, so naturally she can't make a mistake."

"Well, I can not only watch the weather, but also know that tomorrow is suitable for moving house and room." Shen Xinniang's tone was slow.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became lighter, and even the fragrance of tea became more seductive and seductive.

Fang Yan looked at her deeply, as if he had been looking at her for a long time, and finally, everything began to be different, and he finally took a crucial step, no need to worry anymore, after all his efforts, he returned to the original point.

"There's a little bit in it, and it's interesting to me." Fang Yan's eyes fell on her white and slender fingers.

Shen Xinniang lowered her head when she heard the words, looked at the booklet in her hand, and flipped through it casually, "Which point?"

"Zhang Mingzhi's younger brother, Huang Shuaiyin, was originally not from the Shangqing School of Maoshan." Fang Yan said, "he studied under the Hunyuan School."

"Can I still change schools in the middle?" Shen Xinniang asked.

"There must be some entanglements here. Among the people we know, there are people from the Hunyuan School." Fang Yan took a sip of tea and looked at Shen Xinniang.

Shen Xinniang raised her eyes, just in time to meet his meaningful eyes, she froze slightly, and said slowly, "Could Master Ziyang be a member of the Hunyuan Sect?"

Fang Yan chuckled, "Xin'er is really smart, she can guess right."

Shen Xinniang was silent. When she was Mu Ling, she had never been out of Lingshan Mountain. She knew quite a few people who practiced Taoism, but none of them are alive now.After she became Shen Xinniang, the only Taoist priest she knew and dealt with was Ziyang Zhenren. So, what else is there to guess?
"What's the reason for the entanglement here?" Shen Xiniang asked.

Fang Yan shook his head, "I really don't know. I only know that Huang Shuaiyin turned his back on his teacher's school and joined the Maoshan Shangqing sect in the year... Lingshan was slaughtered."
