The prince is sick: it is too enchanting to marry the princess

Chapter 31
Nan Gongyan groped forward, and after passing a narrow road, the two of them reached the depths of the cave.

After seeing the true face of this cave, Ji Qingxue couldn't help sighing, "It turns out that there is really a hidden cave here!"

There are not only many flower and fruit trees growing here, but also a small waterfall. There is also a big stone bed in the cave, and there is a simple dressing table beside it, but the copper mirror on it is already covered with dust.

Someone once lived here, and it was a woman.

What kind of person would live in such a cave?
Ji Qingxue was contemplating when Nan Gongyan stood behind her at some point, and his warm breath kept spraying on her neck, making her feel itchy.

"A Xue, don't look behind you." His low voice rang in his ears.

He called it Axue, not Ji Qingxue.

Ji Qingxue was stunned for a moment, but curiosity killed the cat, the less she was allowed to watch it, the more she wanted to watch it.

She turned her head abruptly, and saw that the corner not far behind her was densely packed with corpses. Even though she was used to these, it still made her scalp tingle seeing it in such an environment.

Suddenly, a pair of warm palms gently covered her eyes, and Nan Gongyan's helpless voice came from beside her ear: "I told you not to look, but you just didn't listen, now you know you're afraid, right?"

Ji Qingxue was about to burst into tears, Nangong Yan was so gentle today, if he had been in his usual state, he would have just sneered and said, "It's a pity that I didn't scare you to death!"

It's just that she is really not afraid of these things.

"It's just a few white bones, and they won't sit up and eat me all of a sudden. There's nothing to be afraid of."

In fact, she didn't care anymore, after all, she survived from the dead.

Seeing Ji Qingxue's calm appearance, Nan Gongyan just smiled and said nothing, that's right, who is Ji Qingxue, why is she afraid of these things?

Nan Gongyan noticed that the posture of the bones in that pile was very strange. They looked like stars surrounding the moon when they were alive, and the people around them tightly surrounded the two people in the middle.

Nan Gongyan walked over without hesitation, observing those bones carefully.

"Although the two people in the middle have many minor wounds, the fatal wound is on the head. They should have suffered a powerful blow to complete such wounds. As for the people around them, their bones are black, The cause of death was poisoning."

Ji Qingxue also followed at some point, and began to analyze it seriously: "Looking at the bones of the two people in the middle, it should be a man and a woman. Seeing that they were still embracing each other before they died, they may be lovers." Bar."

Nangongyan turned her head back, and pondered: "What are you doing here, you are still a girl after all, it's not good to see too much of this."

At this moment, Nan Gongyan was very surprised, because Ji Qingxue's analysis was exactly the same as what he thought in his heart.

After hearing Nangongyan's words, Ji Qingxue crossed her arms and said calmly, "When have I ever been afraid of this? For me, these are just as normal as eating and sleeping."

Seeing that she couldn't resist her, Nan Gongyan had no choice but to give up, and said instead: "Then tell me, what happened to them before they died?"

Ji Qingxue pondered for a moment, then Fang said: "If I guessed right, these people should come to chase and kill those two people."

"Why do you decide so?"

Ji Qingxue pointed to the rotting clothes on the side, and said: "That should be their packed luggage. They were going to leave here, but they were found by this group of people, so they fought fiercely. Some of these people The purpose should be the things in this luggage, and they should be taken away afterwards."

A look of appreciation flashed in Nangongyan's eyes, she was really smart, but she missed a little bit, the things in the bag were not taken away.

Nan Gongyan stepped forward and bowed respectfully to the two skeletons. Given their status, they could bear his bow no matter what.

Ji Qingxue just watched helplessly. Nan Gongyan removed the torn clothes on the skeletons, rummaged through the two skeletons, and finally found a jade slip from one of the skeletons.

"What is this?" Ji Qingxue asked curiously.

Nangong Yan raised the things in his hands, and said softly: "This is what they have in their bags."

Ji Qingxue stared at Nan Gongyan: "How do you know that the things in this bag have not been taken away?
Nan Gongyan stroked the jade slip in his hand, deep in thought: "Because the people around died about a quarter of an hour before the two of them."

Seeing that there were still signs of crawling and struggling beside them, the man must have wanted to crawl out to seek help, but the injuries were too serious and he could only wait to die on the spot.

He said: "The name of this jade slip is Biyue, and it was originally a national treasure of the West Moon Kingdom."

Ji Qingxue looked surprised, shouldn't the national treasure be a jade seal or something, just such a broken thing is still a national treasure, how poor is Xiyue Kingdom.

Nan Gongyan looked at Ji Qingxue's disgusted expression, and thought to himself, he knew that this little money fan would not like this, but this Biyue was really Xiyue's national treasure.

Nan Gongyan continued: "Although Xiyue Kingdom cannot compare with big countries like Dayan and Wei, it is a very rich country. According to legend, the founding emperor of Xiyue Kingdom has a treasure house, whose wealth is enough to buy a whole A big Yan country."

"Wow, the emperor is so rich?" Ji Qingxue's eyes sparkled when he heard this.

"It is too rich, and it has attracted the attention of other big countries. It can be said that everyone in the world wants his treasure house. Later, Xiyue Kingdom was destroyed 16 years ago. But no one found that treasure house. .”

Ji Qingxue mocked: "The human heart is like this, greedy and selfish. For one's own selfish desires, he would not hesitate to destroy a country, sacrifice soldiers, and make so many innocent people homeless, just because of a legend that I don't know if it is true or not. .”

Nan Gongyan nodded, Ji Qingxue was right, human nature is what it is, and after seeing it a lot, you will not be surprised at all.Especially for those born in an emperor's family, intrigues and intrigues are the most common things.

"But what does this have to do with Yu Jian?"

Nan Gongyan said: "It is said that this jade slip is one of the keys to open that treasure house."

Ji Qingxue noticed that Nan Gongyan was talking about one of the keys, not all of them: "Could it be the key to open this treasure house..."

"That's right, there are two." Nan Gongyan affirmed her thoughts, "This treasure house was designed and built by Tie Feng, the number one master craftsman back then, and the design is perfect. You need to insert two keys into the lock hole at the same time to open the door. "

"And what about the other key?"

"No one knows what the other key is."

After the treasure house was built, Tie Feng disappeared. No matter how many countries tried their best to search for him, there was no trace of him. He seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.

Ji Qingxue suddenly thought of a question. Pointing to the two skeletons, she said in shock: "The jade slip is here, so don't they..."

Nan Gongyan nodded, an important thing like Biyue cannot be owned by anyone who is not in the royal family of Xiyue, and all the countries did not find King Xiyue and his queen back then.

Therefore, what he expected was true, the two skeletons belonged to West Moon King Bai Mengsheng and his queen He Lianxue.

Ji Qingxue thought to herself, people who refused to part even in death, they must have loved each other very much during their lifetime.

Nan Gongyan never expected that the people and jade slips that the countries desperately wanted to find more than ten years ago would unexpectedly appear here today.

The Wuling Clan, Liushenggu is the territory of the Wuling Clan, at a critical moment, Bai Mengsheng should go to the place where he feels the safest.

Could it be that the Wuling Clan has something to do with Xiyue Kingdom?
Nan Gongyan was deep in thought, Ji Qingxue patted him on the shoulder: "What are you thinking about?"

Nan Gongyan put the jade slip into his arms and said, "It's nothing."

At this moment, Ji Qingxue saw a wound on Nangongyan's shoulder with the help of a ray of light from above the cave entrance. The blood almost stained his back. This man still kept silent, and she was really convinced. .

She tore a piece of cloth from her skirt, ran to the waterfall to wash it, then came back and said roughly to him, "Take off your clothes."

Nan Gongyan was a little puzzled.

"If you don't take care of the injury on your shoulder, what should you do if it becomes inflamed in a few days and the injury worsens?" Ji Qingxue said seriously in a doctor's tone.

Nan Gongyan said lightly: "It's just a little injury, it's okay."

It doesn't matter your sister!

Ji Qingxue pinned him on a big rock, tore off his clothes, and carefully cleaned his wound.

Being so close, Nan Gongyan smelled the cold fragrance from Ji Qingxue's body again. Unlike other women's strong and pungent makeup smell, her fragrance made Nan Gongyan feel very comfortable.

In fact, he had suffered many more serious injuries than this, and many times he almost died, but he carried it all by himself.

Because he knew that his hands were covered with blood, and he walked step by step to today on the bones of countless people.

More than anyone else, he wants to live, to live longer, and at the same time, more than anyone else, he despises his own life.

Because of disgust.

When he was young, all he wanted was the life of ordinary people, working from sunrise to sunset, but it seemed that everyone around him was forcing him, forcing him to do many things he didn't want to do, and pushing him step by step. Now enter Prince Rui.

Living in pain may prove that he is a person with flesh and blood and feelings.

Nan Gongyan closed his eyes, his mind full of thoughts, Ji Qingxue, maybe you shouldn't have provoked someone like me in the first place.
