The original map had been hidden by Mu Qingyan in a strange symbol diagram. Dodo and Chu Menglin had deciphered it and used many pieces of paper to trace it out. Shen Shiyun was worried that it would be inconvenient to carry it around, so she used her excellent drawing skills to trace the lines on a large map. She had already made preparations for entering the tomb this time. She had drawn a map before leaving the palace, but it wasn't because of the Jueyin Zither. She had suggested bringing Hu Wei along because of this.
Jiang Liechen said, "Nonsense." He took one end of the scroll and looked at it carefully. The two of them were almost shoulder to shoulder, looking very intimate. Cheng Jiaxuan was full of jealousy again.
Shen Shiyun looked at it for a while, but because this was a new path, she couldn't figure out anything. She asked, "Aren't you very good at analyzing? Do you know where the Death Seeking Strike is? " Jiang Liechen said, "Ignorant. The Death Seeking Strike is stored in the tomb, so it must have a purpose. How can you change its original position just by analyzing it? Looking at the map is just to determine the current position. "He loosened his fingers and put away the scroll with a" pa "sound. He said," Let's go. "Shen Shiyun followed him out of conditioned reflex.
The two hadn't taken many steps when they stepped onto a wooden bridge floating in the air. It was tied up with thick hemp rope. The rope was very tattered, and there were some rough edges. It looked very weak. There were no chains on either side of the bridge, and the wooden planks had not been repaired for many years. They would shake with just a little force. Below them was boiling magma that was bubbling. Once one lost their footing and fell, it wouldn't take long for them to be burned to ashes.
Shen Shiyun thought, "He's right. The Death Seeking Strike can only be stored in one place, and it doesn't have legs to fly. As long as we send some people to search and turn the tomb upside down, we won't have to worry about not finding the Death Seeking Strike. It's good that we haven't gone far. At worst, I can go back the way I came. I don't have to rely on him … but the blood of the villagers must be avenged. Normally, the Demon Sect is heavily guarded. What can a weak woman like me do? Even getting close to him is as difficult as ascending to the heavens. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I'm marrying into the Imperial Concubine. Isn't it all for the sake of killing him? Even if we perish together, I will accept it. "She quickened her steps and said softly," Hierarch Jiang, do you miss Miss Chu? "
Jiang Liechen said indifferently, "What do you think? Shen Shiyun hugged him with both hands and said with a smile, "It's not that she wants to see you, it's you who wants to find her!" Finished speaking, her countenance changed and her body suddenly bumped into him. Jiang Liechen was caught off guard. He lost his balance and his upper body leaned backward. The wooden bridge shook violently. Shen Shiyun pushed Qin Mu's shoulders with both hands and pushed him with her toes. She hissed, "I … I want you to die! I'd rather have both of us perish together! "
Jiang Liechen angrily said, "Damn it! Let go of me!" Shen Shiyun opened her mouth to bite his throat. Jiang Liechen grabbed her hair and pulled her head to one side. As the two of them pulled and pulled, the already unstable wooden bridge shook even more violently. The ropes on both sides grew tighter and tighter. Jiang Liechen angrily lifted his foot and kicked out. "Get lost!" he shouted. This kick hit Shen Shiyun squarely on the chest and she fell to the ground. She spat out several mouthfuls of blood. Her eyes were half closed and her head was tilting back and forth. She was in so much pain that she almost fainted.
Jiang Liechen raised his finger and touched his neck. He didn't see any blood. He also felt that his kick just now was too heavy. He stepped forward and said, "Are you alright? I didn't want to hurt you … "
Shen Shiyun's painful expression disappeared. Suddenly she drew a dagger from her sleeve and stabbed him. Her chest and lungs were indeed shaken at first, but it was inevitable that she was putting on an act later on. Jiang Liechen raised his hand to block. The material of his glove was tough and could block most weapons. As soon as he touched the tip of the dagger, he twisted his hand and the dagger became crooked. Shen Shiyun let go. Jiang Liechen casually threw the dagger into the lava. He didn't blame her for the two assassination attempts. He said indifferently, "Don't play these tricks with me in the future. It's time to go."
Shen Shiyun's two attacks failed. She suddenly covered her face and cried bitterly. "If I can't kill you, I won't be able to avenge my parents. What hope do I have in living? I'd rather die! "Jiang Liechen didn't answer. He only stretched out a hand in front of her and said," Are you done? Get up. "
Shen Shiyun glared at him with resentment. She straightened her body and stood up with a cold expression. Her eyes emitted a cold light. "Fine. If you don't let me die now, don't regret it in the future. I hereby swear that I will destroy everything you care about in the future. I will let you live alone in this world. I will use the cruelest means to torture you to compensate for the heinous crimes you committed against my family! I will do what I say. I will never … "
Jiang Liechen smiled faintly. "Fine. I'll wait for you. But I don't care about anyone, so I'll let you be happy for nothing. "Shen Shiyun stroked her hair and smiled charmingly." Oh, even Miss Chu doesn't count? My subordinates once fished out a female corpse from the lower reaches of Qingyi River. It seems to be hers. If you don't care about it, I'm free to do whatever you want with the corpse! "
Jiang Liechen sneered. "Childish. Do you really think I care about her? An Yesun is the only one in this world who treats her like a treasure. I'm just having fun. In the past, you used this as a pretext to set a trap for me, but when have I ever fallen for it? She dared to be rude to me, so she deserved to die. Don't say that she doesn't like me, I don't like her either! That old thing has already gone to heaven. It's good for his daughter to accompany him. I only love power in this world. How can I sacrifice my great ambition for a woman? As for you, if you have a fetish for whipping corpses, then it's up to you. "
Shen Shiyun was shocked. Young Master Jiang was infatuated with Chu Menglin. This news had once caused an uproar in Jianghu, so it was highly credible. But when she heard him deny it, there was indeed no emotion in his words. If he was even a little bit sincere, he wouldn't be so unscrupulous and wanton. For the first time, she felt that she had never understood him. She was tongue-tied. "You … don't tell me you really don't care about blood and tears?"
Jiang Liechen sneered. "That's right. I am the world's First Venerable. I naturally abandon all worldly emotions. Therefore, if you want to fight with me, you can only lose. Do you understand? "
Shen Shiyun recalled that he could even kill Zsaketu, who raised him up. In order to prevent his lowly identity from being exposed, he even killed his own parents. It was simply inhumane. She thought about how she had tried to use her beauty to charm him. It was really funny. But how scary was this enemy of hers? She asked in a daze, "You … what kind of monster are you?" Jiang Liechen smiled faintly. "Monster? You're the first one to call me that. I'm not a monster. I'm the 'Seven Evil Spirits'! "
It was the first time Shen Shiyun heard this strange name. She repeated doubtfully, "Seven Evil Spirits?" Jiang Liechen said, "That's right. I'm determined to get the Seven Evils Treasure! Alright, I've said enough to you. Let's go. "
Shen Shiyun shook her head in horror. She was already afraid of him. She said in a trembling voice, "No … no … I won't go with you … let me go!" She lifted her skirt and ran forward. Jiang Liechen waited for her to run for a while. Then he flicked his sleeve and shot out like a black arrow. He turned a small corner and stopped in front of Shen Shiyun. He said coldly, "Since you've provoked me, don't think you can get rid of me!"
Shen Shiyun had lost all ability to respond. She could only tremble. Jiang Liechen said, "A king who creates a peerless hegemony must be ruthless. If one day I'm tied down, that day will be the day I die. I won't allow that to happen. " Shen Shiyun took a deep breath and calmed herself down. She said, "Then let's make an agreement. If you want to die, you can only die in my hands. Is that okay?" Jiang Liechen smiled and said, "Okay. In an equal exchange, your life is also mine." Shen Shiyun nodded gently. Jiang Liechen snorted and said, "Can we go now?"
Shen Shiyun wiped her tears and said, "I remember Hu Wei told me that there's a place in Gu Mu where a monk's staff is sticking out of the wall. There's a gorgeous looking treasure chest at the entrance. They haven't opened it yet. Do you think the Life Demanding Chop is there?" Jiang Liechen said, "According to what you said, the treasure chest is just a fancy bait. But there's no harm in taking a look."
Shen Shiyun took out the map again. She roughly determined the direction and continued forward. Xuan Shuang hid behind the wall and whispered, "Seven Evil Spirits … this name is very impressive. What's the relationship between him and Young Marshal Yun? How can they be brothers and also enemies? This person is a bit interesting. I also admire his theory of kings. If I have time, I'll go and make friends with him. "Cheng Jiaxuan happily said," Okay, you go. Don't be afraid. I … I'll go with you! "Xuan Shuang sighed and said," Ay, you don't have to be so enthusiastic … this will take time. "
The path in Gu Mu was full of twists and turns. Fortunately, they didn't encounter many traps. There were a few steep cliffs and lotus platforms floating on the surface of the blood pond. Jiang Jiaochen had one arm around Shen Shiyun as they passed through all of them. They walked all the way without any danger until they arrived at a small platform. There was a slight difference in height between the ground and the path ahead. Although it was the first time Shen Shiyun came here, she relied on her intuition and said, "I guess it's here." She moved a little and saw a treasure chest not far ahead. Jiang Liechen said, "Hmm, tell me the order."
Shen Shiyun recalled Hu Wei's report when he returned to the capital many years ago. She vaguely remembered some evasive routes. She concluded the rules and said, "When we came from the front, the order was' up, down, middle, down. ' Now that we've changed directions, we just need to reverse the order. "Jiang Liechen impatiently said," Nonsense. "
Shen Shiyun had suffered his contempt many times, but in all her life she had never suffered this kind of extraordinary shame and humiliation. She thought, "It will be too late for you to repent for what you did to me today. When I return to the Capital, I will make you pay back double. I want to see you kneeling in front of me and begging for mercy! "Seeing that Shen Shiyun no longer paid any attention to her, she was jealous. She said angrily," What, you trust me that much? Aren't you afraid I'll lie to you? " Jiang Liechen snorted coldly. Shen Shiyun's heart tightened. She stammered, "I … I was just saying …"
Jiang Liechen sneered and said, "I don't think you dare." He took several steps forward and waved his sleeve as usual. His body left the ground. Shen Shiyun saw the monk's staffs on both sides were waving around him. The wind was whistling; it sounded very urgent. Shen Shiyun was listening on the side, but she felt her heart was being pressured several times. Jiang Liechen's movements were very nimble. In the midst of the waving monk's staffs, he moved up and down like a streak of black light. Shen Shiyun watched him attentively. Right now she was not sure what she was thinking. Was she hoping that he would pass through safely, or was she hoping that he would receive retribution?
Her heart was still in a fierce battle. Jiang Liechen's speed was unexpectedly faster than her thoughts. In the blink of an eye he had reached the last monk's staff. He jumped up from the bottom, but he did not follow the correct order to pass through the top. Instead, he directly grabbed the treasure chest.
The monk's staff did not recognize him and attacked as usual. Jiang Liechen quickly withdrew his hand and somersaulted in the air. He landed on the square platform above the monk's staff and stabilized his body. With a 'whoosh' sound, the monk's staff bounced to the right. Thereupon he quickly moved to the left, which was where the Buddhist staff had struck. Sure enough, he saw a rusty mechanism. His foot kicked off the ground, and as he leaped up, he grabbed the mechanism with his palm and flipped it outwards. Borrowing the force of his fall, he twisted it and easily snapped the iron mechanism as if it were a fragile flower vine. He threw the thick monk's staff on the ground and slowly walked toward the treasure chest.
Shen Shiyun's heart was full of admiration and regret, but she had to suppress her chaotic emotions. She pretended to applaud and said with a smile, "Wonderful! You are so awesome! "Her tone was purposely pure; even she felt disgusted when she heard it.
