Jiang Liechen sneered and said, "Just as I expected!" Then he turned around and left. Shen Shiyun anxiously said, "You … you're leaving just like that? What do you want me to do? " Her current situation was neither good nor bad. The road was steep and she had to use her lightness kungfu to pass through. She could not go back, and the road in front of her was blocked by many Buddhist staffs. She could not move an inch. If he abandoned her at this time, it would really develop into a situation where she could neither advance nor retreat.
Jiang Liechen leaned against the wall, facing her from the side. It seemed that the more anxious she was, the more relaxed he was. He said, "At worst, you can go back the way you came. Since the Life Demanding Chop cannot fly, you don't need to use me anymore, right?" Shen Shiyun heard that he was able to accurately guess her original plan, which she was very proud of, and felt ashamed. She did not expect that although he did not show it on the surface, his heart was as clear as snow. She hastily smiled and said, "No … no such thing … Hierarch Jiang, you are a great person …"
Jiang Liechen calmly said, "When you return to the capital, you can gather your troops and horses and attack my Sacrifice Shadow Cult to avenge today's humiliation. Along the way, you wanted to kill me many times, didn't you? "Shen Shiyun was even more flustered. She shouted," No way! You are the most honorable Hierarch, could it be that you are afraid that I can raise a storm and turn the sky upside down? Please do me a favor and pull me over first. I promise I won't cause any more trouble for you. "
Jiang Liechen said, "You said I don't have the right to show off. Very well, you have guts. Aren't you very capable? Then find a way to come here yourself. A small tunnel is difficult for the world famous Noble Consort Yun. Once this spreads out, I'm afraid it will be detrimental to your painstakingly built reputation. "
Shen Shiyun was so anxious that tears were about to fall out of her eyes. She originally thought that dealing with Jiang Liechen would be a cinch, but later she learned that he was completely inhumane and temperamental. He simply could not be judged by common sense. If he really went crazy and threw her away, then she would stay in this tomb. Even if she did not move to avoid being injured by the mechanisms, she would still die of hunger and thirst after several days without food or water. There was a sobbing tone in her voice as she said, "You … Don't torture me anymore! I admit that I was defeated by you! I don't have such a high level of Qing Gong like you, how can I pass? "
Jiang Liechen sneered, "You still can't put down your face. Why don't you just tell me frankly that you don't know martial arts? "" Yes, yes, "Shen Shiyun hastily said," I don't know martial arts. Would you please help me? " Jiang Liechen smiled faintly and looked at her like a cat appreciating a mouse under its control. He said, "I am not a good person. You should have known this already. Why don't you come and beg me and say a few nice words? Maybe I can consider it. "Shen Shiyun did not hesitate to beg," Hierarch Jiang, Jiang Daren, Seven Evil Spirits Daren! I beg you! "
Jiang Liechen said, "Your voice is not bad. I like to see you admit defeat. You were born to be a woman who wags her tail and begs for mercy. Now you are no longer my opponent. You are just a servant. You don't have the qualifications to talk to me about conditions. "
Shen Shiyun thought, "You are humiliating me again. I will endure it for now, but in the future I will collect debts one by one! "She hastily said," Fine, I will be a servant. I will pour tea for you! I will massage your back and legs! Please let me go first. Only then can I serve you. Don't you agree? "Jiang Liechen said," I don't need you to remind me of this shallow truth. " He did not seem to move at all. He just casually struck out with his palm and the wall collapsed with a loud bang. Several monk's staves embedded in the wall also fell to the ground, motionless.
Shen Shiyun was stunned, but now was not the time to bicker. She hastily ran over, bouncing on the tips of her toes along the way. Jiang Liechen did not wait for her. He turned around and walked away. He said, "You are married to the Emperor. Although you are honored as an imperial concubine, you are no more than a high-ranking concubine. But if you follow me, you will enjoy endless honor and glory. Do you understand?" Shen Shiyun said, "What you said is the truth." In her heart she cursed, "You can't eat the grapes and say the grapes are sour. You won't become an emperor! You dare to say that I was born to admit defeat? I also said that you were born to die! "
Jiang Liechen said again, "Since you are a servant, you should have a name that matches your status. I don't have the leisure to waste my time on this matter. Why don't you continue to call me Yun 'er? It will be easier to call you that. " Shen Shiyun's heart warmed. She smiled and said, "That was the name I used when we first met. It's hard for you to remember it until today." Jiang Liechen did not answer. Shen Shiyun bit her lip. She felt that these words were too ambiguous. Her face burned.
After that, the terrain was the same as the map. They followed the signs and saved a lot of effort. Soon they arrived at a narrow corridor. After walking for a while, they suddenly encountered a situation. They did not see the turning point on the map for a long time. Shen Shiyun remembered Hu Wei's description of it in the past. She said, "Maybe this is the 'Ghost Hits the Wall' … Oh, no, it's similar to the 'Hanging Soul Ladder' or something. You have to go through a certain number of steps and turn between the gaps to find the correct intersection and pass through. Otherwise, you will be confused by the eyes and walk in circles for the rest of your life. The number of steps seems to be … a quarter of the circumference of some circle … My memory is not very good. It's probably six steps, or … four steps … "
Jiang Liechen impatiently said, "How many steps is it?" Shen Shiyun was frightened. She panicked and said, "It's five … five and a half steps!" She cursed in her heart, "Why are you so fierce? If you have the ability, why don't you go find it yourself? " After walking a few more steps, he saw a skull painted on the wall. It had a row of sharp teeth and a long tongue. He could not help but laugh and said, "This is the mark my subordinates made that year. At that time, Miss Chu was scared out of her wits by this thing. Hee hee …"
Jiang Liechen coldly said, "You think it's funny?" Shen Shiyun's enthusiasm was completely extinguished. She cursed in her heart, "What am I thinking? How can I joke around with him? "With a straight face she said," It's exactly five and a half steps from here. "Jiang Liechen listened and continued walking.
The two of them turned a corner and indeed found a gap. Passing through the gap, they saw a towering stone pillar with the top carved in the shape of a dragon. There was still a bloodstain on the dragon's head. Although she had heard about it from Hu Wei, seeing it with her own eyes was a different feeling. It was still a ghastly sight. Pointing to the bloodstain she said, "This is Miss Chu's …" She stopped midway and said in her heart, "I always think of ways to mention Chu Menglin in front of him. What is the meaning of that?" She was really angry with herself. After a moment of silence she said, "Hierarch Jiang, what kind of martial art have you been practicing all these years?"
Jiang Liechen said, "By combining the 'Tian Mo Da Fa' with the 'Qi Sha Zhen Jue', I have made some progress. By the end of this month, both of them will break through to the top level. Why do you care about these things? "Shen Shiyun said," As a servant, I should understand everything about my master. In that case, isn't it the most important thing to know when you are breaking through to the next level? What will happen if someone disturbs you? "
"That's right," Jiang Liechen said, "Every time you break through to the next level, your power will increase greatly. But when you are about to break through, the danger will also increase. Because you need to use more powerful internal energy to break through, if there is even the slightest abnormality, it will be very easy for the backlash to enter your body. At this time, you must not disturb me. Otherwise, if you are lucky, you will lose all your martial art skills. If you are serious, you will suffer from fire deviation, your tendons and arteries will be broken, and you will die a miserable death. That is the reason why I don't care about external affairs and practice behind closed doors. "Shen Shiyun nodded thoughtfully. With a faint smile Jiang Liechen said, "Why do you ask? Do you want to take this opportunity to disturb me? "
Shen Shiyun was flustered. "No!" He said, "I heard that there are many mechanisms in your Jiaotian headquarters, the roads are winding, outsiders will not be able to go far before they get lost. How can I disturb your practice? I am just curious … "" Alright, "Jiang Liechen said," You don't need to say anything, I believe you. " Shen Shiyun was slightly startled, she did not understand why he suddenly became so considerate. Perhaps there was some other conspiracy, but she did not know whether she had passed this obstacle or not. But if she made him slightly vigilant, it would not be easy to make a move later.
The dirt road was not long, a winding tunnel appeared in front of them, presumably it was the exit. Looking at this situation, Shen Shiyun did not want to lose face, so she bent down in front of him and gently pulled his sleeve. "That …" she said, "Can you go up first?" She was too embarrassed to even explain this matter, so she thought, "If you dare not agree, I will crush your bones to pieces in the future! If you dare to laugh at me, I will crush your bones and scatter your ashes! "
Jiang Liechen cast a glance toward the tunnel, knowing that she was a shy girl, but seeing Shen Shiyun's bashful expression, he was indeed somewhat amused. Holding her shoulders, he turned her to the side and said with a low laugh, "Why not? But you must turn around first. "
Shen Shiyun sneered, "Who wants to peek at you?" But when she heard the noise behind her, she could not help but quietly turned her head around, only to see a shadow flashing at the mouth of the tunnel. "Why did you make me turn around?" She said angrily, "With your speed, who can see clearly?" This tunnel was straight up, so she could not step on the ground like in an ancient tomb. She looked around and saw that there was no one around. Gritting her teeth, she bent over and crawled in.
The Xuan Shuang hid behind the dragon-breaking stone and laughed softly, "My mother values manners the most, I did not expect that she would have such a shameful moment, and even let me see it. It's a pity that I can't reveal this matter, so I won't have a chance to laugh at her. It's a pity. " Cheng Jiaxuan copied Shen Shiyun's action, pulling the Xuan Shuang's sleeve, saying, "When we go up, you walk in front, okay?"
The Xuan Shuang almost burst out laughing. "Alright," she said, "You women all have the same problem. It's just that I am not as fast as that person, you must not turn around and peek. "" Who wants to peek at you? "Cheng Jiaxuan said, but in his heart he thought," Even if I want to peek, it's not you. He … just now I was staring at him, but I still did not see anything clearly. "
Shen Shiyun awkwardly crawled out of the tunnel. She saw the coffin lid had been opened, and a ray of light shone in. When she crawled out of the coffin, her whole body was sore and weak, she nearly tripped and fell. She struggled to get out and sat on the edge of the coffin, gasping for breath. She raised her sleeve to wipe the sweat on her forehead. Seeing Jiang Liechen was not far from her, she quickly adjusted her breathing and took out a handkerchief. Like a dragonfly skimming the surface of the water, she slowly wiped her sweat and brushed her hair to make sure it was not too messy. Only then did she get up and walk forward.
Passing through the white cloth banner, she turned around and saw a huge 'Ji' character, with a memorial tablet on the side. The wooden paint was peeling off, the writing was also worn out. This Zhao Clan Temple had been dilapidated for many years, its scale was obviously not as good as the Shen Clan's ancestral hall. She sighed and said, "Entering the underground palace without permission and disturbing people's rest is not a good deed. But now we have a reason to do this, we have no choice but to burn incense in front of Prince Zhuang and kowtow a few times to express our apology. I hope he will not take offense. "
"What a joke!" Jiang Liechen said. "Zhen Zhuang is the most revered person in the world, you want me to kowtow to a dead mortal? That is simply absurd. Since you like to kowtow, why don't you kowtow to me? " Shen Shiyun knew nothing good would come out of his mouth, but she did not want to kowtow in front of him. She said in a fit of pique, "If you don't want to kowtow, then I won't kowtow. What's so strange about it?" Thinking that she was not able to find the Death Killer Chop and was not willing to let the Tears of Severing Soul fall into his hands, she still chased after him without stopping.
Jiang Liechen suddenly stopped and impatiently said, "Why are you still following Zhen Zhuang?" Shen Shiyun angrily said, "Who is following you? I … I was just passing by! "" Passing by? "Jiang Liechen said," Passing by? Where are you going? "Shen Shiyun said," I want to go back to the inn in the city and wait to meet His Majesty. Tomorrow we will depart for the capital. Today I came to Gu Mu because I was in the middle of his ancestor worship ceremony … What about you? "Jiang Liechen proudly said," Zhen Zhuang's whereabouts, I don't need to report to you. "
