Queen Flower
Chapter 58: night eavesdropping
Jiang Lan was sighing when she suddenly felt that the window under the house was wide open and the curtains were fluttering. She immediately held her breath, but found that there was nothing unusual. Could it be that Ye Feng pushed open the window lattice? She was suspicious, but she didn't dare to be careless. At this time, she heard footsteps coming from outside the house again, with great momentum. She looked up and saw a group of soldiers walking around a slender, thin man. This person has a long robe with wide sleeves and luxurious clothes. The gold and silver threads on it are faintly glittering in the moonlight. On his head, he has a golden crown with wavy hair, and he is rich and noble. It seems that this person is the third prince, Sanma Lian, who is titled King Ning.
The soldiers stood still outside the house, Sima Lian pushed open the door and entered alone, and the door was slowly closed behind him. Jiang Lan secretly looked down from the roof, but saw that this person was quite beautiful, but his face was pale and haggard, with thin lips and hooked nose, except for those eyes, which were long and narrow in shape, with eyes like knives, divine and sinister.
Sima Lian sat on one side of the Taishi chair, took out something from his arms and put it on the table, then poured two cups of tea, picked up one for himself, and sipped slowly. Jiang Lan took a closer look, and his heart was beating rapidly. Looking at the appearance of that thing, it was a long, slender, slightly curved tube. The color was golden and the luster was a little dull, not as bright as the original small golden bottle. Could this be the golden branch? It is really hard to find a place to break through the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it. Is it possible that if she just jumps down and grabs it later, even if she is killed on the spot, her mission will be considered complete?
Jiang Lan couldn't help but be eager to try, anyway, it seems that this Sima Lian is not a strong martial artist and should be easy to deal with. She was about to make a move when she suddenly heard someone under the house say, "Since you're here, don't hide it. You might as well sit down and **** new good tea."
Jiang Lan almost fell from above, how did he find her? Just as he was about to gamble, he saw the curtains sway, and came out a man dressed in black, with a black cloth covering his face, and his eyes were cold and cold. Jiang Lan's heart shuddered. She was crawling on the roof and didn't dare to move. She was too familiar with this person's breath. It was cold and sticky, as if a poisonous snake was slowly moving around her neck. She can't be wrong. A few months ago, when she was Wen Xiaozhu, wasn't it the same murderous killer dressed in black that she met? They are definitely a gang.
Jiang Lan carefully looked at his footsteps. This man's skill was unfathomable. He was by no means an opponent. He also wondered if Xiao Yan, who had only recovered five successes, could deal with him? According to Shangguanhong’s speculation, the masked man in black has something to do with the royal family. She once found a nobleman’s clothes in a cave in the Royal Mountains, so it can be confirmed that in addition to the Murong Xiling, there is also a Murong family in the Celestial Dynasty. , Could it be that this person is the one who respects the country? The age is not the same, this person looks upright and mature, and will definitely not exceed the age of thirty. However, looking at this posture, even if it is not the biggest boss, it is estimated that the background is not small.
Jiang Lan feels that her life is really hard, and she always has to be the enemy of the high officials in this world. She will not let go of the open or the dark. As long as she jumps off, she will instantly become the enemy of the two major groups. She is not over when she dies. , don't forget that she still has tasks to do in this world in the future.
The man in black walked to another Taishi chair and sat down, but did not drink tea. He picked up the golden branch on the table, looked at it carefully for a long time, and then lightly pressed and twisted on the top, and saw that the golden branch was divided into two parts from the middle. , a roll of something came out of the tube. He pulled out the roll and slowly unfolded it on the table. Jiang Lan looked at it carefully, but could only tell that it was an extremely thin sheepskin roll, and he couldn't see what was on it.
After watching it for a while, he rolled it up, put it back into the golden branch, and then said to Sima Lian: "It seems that this is the treasure left by Zunguo decades ago." His voice It sounds very young, and Jiang Lan was a little confused for a while. When did this respected country still bury its wealth in the Celestial Dynasty, what is it for?
"It is very likely that Zunguo invaded the Celestial Dynasty a few decades ago, and an army penetrated into the southern part of the Celestial Dynasty. Later, the main force of this army was annihilated by the King of Jin, and a small number of people fled and merged into the Celestial Dynasty and the Southern Barbarian Kingdom. It is unknown." Sima Lian Nodding, "It is said that this army secretly buried a lot of treasures in Nanling before the defeat. If the situation is true, then it is very likely that this is the treasure map."
The man in black didn't answer right away, he rubbed the thin tube, then pointed to one end for Sima Lian to look at, and said with certainty, "That's not a legend, there is indeed such a thing, this is the secretly buried treasure, this flower seal is evidence."
Sima Lian shook his head: "How can you be so sure, could it be that you are..." He paused, "Of course this is impossible, Zunguo has been inexplicably disappeared for more than 20 years."
The man in black put down the golden branch and said lightly: "My origin, you don't have to worry about my lord, as long as the lord remembers, we are mutually beneficial, and when we find the treasure, I only need half of it, and I will bring it with those children, the prince's Great things can happen.”
The two smiled at each other, proud and cold, making Jiang Lan horrified.
It seemed that the conversation between the two was over, and Sima Lian held the golden branch in his palm again. Jiang Lan hesitated very much. The golden branch was right in front of him. If he didn't **** it now, when Sima Lian hid it, where would he go to find it. Even if he doesn't hide and carries it with him, and loses this god-given opportunity, what chance can she find to get close to him again? As long as there is an incident in that small courtyard tomorrow, she will immediately become a wanted criminal in this palace, and she will no longer be able to sneak in. Damn, why doesn't this man in black get out?
Jiang Lan's heart was gloomy, and she couldn't help being a little upset. Her breathing was disordered for a while, but unexpectedly, the man in black suddenly looked up at the roof and shouted, "Who is it? Come out."
Well, now there is no need to hesitate and struggle, she is about to have a big accident. As soon as she stood up, the man in black pounced on the roof and pierced the roof with a slap. At this moment, Jiang Lan seemed to see a dark shadow passing under the house, but she didn't have time to take a closer look, because the murderous palm wind was already in front of her eyes. She didn't dare to be careless, she raised her palms to greet her, her inner strength gathered in her palms, but she was preparing to retreat under her feet.
"Bang!" With a loud noise, the two palms slammed into each other. Jiang Lan only felt the blood surging in his heart, and his throat was slightly itchy, such a strong opponent. Fortunately, she didn't intend to fight to the death, she already knew that she was not an opponent, so when the palms were facing each other, although the whole body's internal strength was in her hands, she was using it to escape. The huge strength made her like an arrow from the string. , ejected from the roof, easily jumped out of the encirclement of soldiers, and landed far by the lake.
Those soldiers were about to pursue, when they heard a loud roar, "No, let the tiger leave the mountain." The man in black did not chase after him, but turned around and rushed into the house again.
Jiang Lan wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, but luckily she didn't suffer any internal injuries. She wanted to find a way to escape. At this time, many soldiers surrounded her, and the crossbow arrows were raised to start firing. She was in a hurry for a while, and now it is difficult to fly even with her wings attached. Sure enough, she is definitely going to be pierced by thousands of arrows here today. Suddenly, a figure emerged from the crowd, grabbed her arm, and jumped into the lake without hesitation.
Jiang Lan held her breath in the lake and spit out a mouthful of water, and then she heard the sound of brushing in her ears. An arrow fell into the water and grazed her body dangerously. She was dragged and dived rapidly, dodging round after round of attacks. Many arrows went straight into the water, and then she was blocked in the water and slowly floated up.
Jiang Lan felt that the hand on her arm was very hard, and it hurt her. She opened her eyes, the water was too dark, and the face of the other party could not be seen clearly, but it felt very familiar to her. Her arm hurt a little, she struggled slightly, but the other's face suddenly came up, kissing her lips and giving her a breath. She was now at peace in her heart, and she could be sure that it was none other than Xiao Yan.
She relaxed her body and dived with him. The lake was dark and bottomless, but Jiang Lan could feel that they were always swimming in one direction. Could it be that this lake really has an underwater tunnel leading to the outside? It is very possible that this will keep the lake water alive at all times. This is a great deed done by a rich man, thank God.
Having said that, the taste in the water is not pleasant. The most fundamental reason why Jiang Lan is not good at swimming lies in nothing else, but because of his small lung capacity. Although there is Xiao Yan's breath, after all, he is not an oxygen bottle and can produce oxygen by himself. If she hadn't practiced martial arts, she probably couldn't support it no matter what, Jiang Lan held back, if she was going to die in the end, I really don't know whether it would be better to be suffocated by water or shot to death by arrows.
