Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 552
Chapter 552 He Thought to Himself, “Soulshake!”
When Yun Xiao heard the commotion behind her, she turned around and saw a hidden passage on the wall beside her that only allowed one person to pass through. She quickly reached the side of the hidden passage. “If what I expected is correct, this place should be able to directly lead to the Third Prince’s Mansion.”
After she finished speaking, she wanted to take the lead, but Rong Jin grabbed her wrist and said, “Wait a moment.”
Yun Xiao turned around and saw that Rong Jin had turned around to take a torch. Then, he pulled her into the secret passage and protected Yun Xiao behind him. He said softly, “Since this secret passage is so important, I believe there should be a lot of mechanisms among them. Follow me closely later.”
Yun Xiao did not refuse. She was very clear about the difference between herself and Rong Jin. The only thing she could do was to use some formations. Second, these formations were useless in this dark path. She could only rely on Rong Jin.
And Rong Jin would agree to bring her here only because she was familiar with the Third Prince’s mansion. In order to avoid unnecessary casualties and preserve her strength, Rong Jin brought her here.
Under the dim light, their figures were pulled by the light for a long time, but they were exceptionally warm.
However, not long after he left, Rong Jin stopped and stared vigilantly in front of him.
Yun Xiao waited in a tight formation and looked around. Who would have thought that at this moment, she would hear a series of chuckling sounds coming from the crowd. It sounded like it made people’s hearts tremble.
Yun Xiao subconsciously tightened her grip on Rong Jin’s hand. Even if she didn’t care about it anymore, she still couldn’t help but feel a little scared in her heart.
Just as Yun Xiao was thinking about what was in front of her, she saw a lot of black objects flying in front of her. When those black objects flew closer, Yun Xiao could clearly see that it was a pile of bats flying in front of her.
At the same time, he felt even more nervous. “We can’t let these bats fly out, otherwise, people will suspect us.”
Rong Jin said softly, “These bats are poisonous.”
Yun Xiao secretly had some Heart Sutra, but she randomly understood. How could a suspicious person like Zhou Jingyan only let some bats do this to repay her credit?
Not to mention the importance of this secret passage, it could directly lead to the Third Prince’s mansion. “What should we do now?”
When Yun Xiao asked this question, she saw a dark patch of bats flying towards the two of them. Just as they were about to retreat, Rong Jin took off his outer robe and covered Yun Xiao with his head and head.
In just a short moment, Yun Xiao’s eyes were pitch black. She was anxious. Rong Jin was injured now, so what could she do with so many poisonous bats?
Yun Xiao wanted to take off the outer robe on top of her head, but Rong Jin directly held her tightly in his arms. His nose was full of the fragrance of magnolia flowers on Rong Jin’s body, but she heard the sound of bats pounding in her ears. Then she felt Rong Jin’s body tense up for a moment, and then relaxed.
Yun Xiao’s face was deathly pale, and her heart was filled with worry about Rong Jin. Although Rong Jin had just been tense for an instant, Yun Xiao knew that Rong Jin was injured.
There was something in his heart that kept surging outwards, and his eyes were also. There were also some unfamiliar businesses in Yun Xiao’s shop. She raised her hand to wipe away the sparkling light in her eyes and secretly hated that she was useless. She could not help Rong Jin at the critical moment.
After an unknown period of time, Yun Xiao only felt that the outer robe in front of her had been taken off. The sparks in front of her were filled with stars. Rong Jin blew a few times with a torch in his hand, and the torch that was about to be extinguished lit up again.
With the faint light, Yun Xiao could clearly see that Rong Jin’s warm and jade-like cheeks were a little tense. She took a deep breath and grabbed Rong Jin’s arm. “Where did you get hurt?”
“I’m fine, I just got pecked.” Rong Jin shook his head. Seeing that he couldn’t hide anything from Yun Xiao, it was worth explaining honestly.
“Those bats are all poisoned.” After Yun Xiao finished speaking, she directly extended her hand to ask for money to see where Rong Jin was injured. However, Rong Jin pressed down on them and lifted the robe on her arm, revealing a pecked wound. She whispered, “Ordinary poison is useless to me. Help me bandage it up.”
Yun Xiao borrowed the halo and saw that the wound on Rong Jin’s arm was slightly turning out. Fortunately, the wound was not big. After confirming that the wound did not turn green again and again, she heaved a sigh of relief.
However, there was some doubt in his heart. Would Zhou Jingyan really just put some ordinary poison on the bats?
Without waiting for Yun Xiao to think too much, Rong Jin had already begun to urge him. Yun Xiao had to first tear off a small piece of cloth at the bottom of her undergarment and then apply medicine to Rong Jin. After quickly treating it, Yun Xiao let go. However, she was still a little worried. “You should eat an interpretation medicine first.”
Seeing that Rong Jin was about to refuse, Yun Xiao said directly, “Think about Nuo, Tongtong, and Ruo.”
Rong Jin smiled bitterly and nodded, “Alright, I’ll listen to you, alright?”
After he finished speaking, he took out an antidote from his bosom and swallowed it first. Then, he looked helplessly at Yun Xiao beside him and said softly, “Is it okay now?”
Yun Xiao graciously said with satisfaction, but her expression was still a little worried. A trace of faint fear in her heart reminded Yun Xiao that this matter was really strange.
After taking a deep breath, he tightened his grip on Rong Jin’s other wrist and whispered, “Alright, let’s go.”
The two of them continued to walk inside, but the deeper they walked, the narrower the hidden passageway became.
The two of them also felt that this atmosphere was getting weirder and weirder, but they didn’t know what to say. After exchanging glances, their expressions became even more vigilant.
She continued to walk inside. After walking a few steps, Yun Xiao discovered that something was wrong with the ground in front of her. Especially, she felt as if something was pulling her feet. She looked at Rong Jin. From Rong Jin’s eyes, Yun Xiao could tell that he felt the same way as herself.
Yun Xiao continued to walk a few steps inside. Suddenly, she felt as if her feet had gone limp and she was about to fall. Yun Xiao’s face was deathly pale, and she quickly grabbed Rong Jin’s sleeve.
After Rong Jin felt that something was wrong below the ground, he immediately reached out and grabbed Yun Xiao’s waist. Holding Yun Xiao’s waist, he lightly stepped on the ground and flew forward.
The moment Rong Jin’s body rose from the ground, Where the two of them had just stood, it sunk into a large pit, After that, Rong Jin stepped on the ground twice before finally reaching the ground. Standing on the ground, the duo turned their heads and looked back. They saw a huge pit appear behind them. Within the pit, there was a layer of silver light. Rong Jin raised the torch and looked down. He only saw layers of sharp swords at the bottom of the pit, each sword shining with a cold light.
When Yun Xiao and Rong Jin saw this change, they couldn’t help but slightly repeat it. If they fell directly, the consequences would be unimaginable!
No matter how high Rong Jin’s martial arts were, if he fell in such a place, he would still bring Yun Xiao along. Even if he didn’t die, he would still be seriously injured.
Yun Xiao secretly stroked her chest and whispered, “Fortunately,” but Yun Xiao didn’t mean to be surprised. No matter how vicious Zhou Jingyan was, or what kind of intolerable thing he did, she wasn’t surprised at all.
A man who can personally kick his own descendants to death, what else can you expect from his character?
When Rong Jin saw Yun Xiao’s lingering fear, he tightly grabbed Yun Xiao’s wrist and whispered, “Let’s go first. We shouldn’t stay here for long.”
Yun Xiao’en said with a gracious voice. She followed Rong Jin and continued to walk forward. She did not turn around to look at him again, but there was a trace of determination in her pair of calm eyes.
The two of them continued forward, breaking through countless mechanisms along the way. After experiencing various mechanisms, they finally arrived at the exit of the hidden tunnel. However, Rong Jin had two more wounds on his body.
Standing in front of the stone door, Rong Jin knocked on it. Then, he saw that the stone door had been opened. Only then did he let out a sigh of relief. After the stone door opened, Rong Jin protected Yun Xiao behind him and slowly walked out of the secret passage. However, after walking out, Yun Xiao’s expression became ugly. It was only because everything here was so familiar!
It was the courtyard he had lived in in his previous life.
She clearly remembered that there was a conflict between her and Li Ruolan once. Then, Zhou Jingyan punished her and locked her up here to reflect. Later, Zhou Jingyan took her out again. However, he said that he had found out the truth. In fact, it was because Yun Maozhe had given Zhou Jingyan one million taels of silver!
Thinking of this, Yun Xiao’s eyes were filled with hatred. Her face was also extremely embarrassed, and her body was trembling from anger.
Rong Jin turned his head to look at Yun Xiao in surprise. When he saw Yun Xiao’s angry face, a trace of doubt flashed in his dark eyes. “What happened?” He always felt that there was a strong hatred in Yun Xiao’s expression when she looked at this place.
After being reminded by Rong Jin’s voice, Yun Xiao immediately regained her senses. She looked at Rong Jin with an embarrassed expression and shook her head gently. “It’s fine, let’s go.”
After she finished speaking, she pulled Rong Jin forward.
However, Rong Jin grabbed Yun Xiao’s wrist again, and his ears moved a few times to remind Yun Xiao of her current situation.
Seeing that Rong Jin’s expression was different, Yun Xiao immediately regained her senses and listened with erect ears. Only then did she realize that there seemed to be some movement in the room. It was trembling and intermittent. If she did not look carefully, she would not be able to hear it clearly.
Rong Jin frowned and protected Yun Xiao behind him. Bit by bit, he walked towards the sound coming from the sound. He circled around the old screen and looked around. However, he didn’t see anything. Just as Rong Jin was about to leave with Yun Xiao, he saw a bunch of black hair behind the curtain behind the bed on one side.
She couldn’t see her face clearly. Everywhere she touched, there was a patch of black furry hair. Yun Xiao took a step back in surprise and involuntarily cried out in alarm, “There … there’s a ghost!”
