Chapter 85
The murderer emerges
Author: Soy Sauce Xuanzhu
The head of the Xu family looked up at this stone table with sacred and excited faces.
When it fully appeared, the two old men who went to the altar with the Xu family leader consciously walked to the stone table and sat down, and carefully played with the stone carvings on the table.
Only then did Li Yewu realize that the things on the table could be moved.
Their set of procedures is as familiar as walking in their own back garden, without any temptation at all. It seems that they come here often.
Moreover, when the two old men were playing with the statues on the table, Li Yewu somehow remembered the life-and-death chess game from an old movie.
Although she shouldn't think so, the scene in front of her was really surprising. She even wondered if they were really playing chess, right?
Going all the way to an underwater altar to play chess? The sword debate in Huashan is not that outrageous!
Li Yewu couldn't see the status of their chess game from her position, and there were more than a dozen people around the altar who were not easy to mess with at first sight. She didn't dare to make any big moves, in case she caused a siege.
Well, after all, we only have Xiao Jiuxi, a second-rate person.
After about a cup of tea, there was another noise from the quiet water pool. Li Yewu perked up a little, and when she went out, she saw that the table with the stone sculptures was retracting as fast as possible.
The two old men were dragged away from the stone table and chair by the head of the Xu family.
When the table sank completely, the four-sided altar became empty and flat again.
They finally spoke.
"It seems that I can only wait until next time to try again."
"Another day of failure, we really don't live up to the late Emperor's expectations."
"In the final analysis, it is not easy for us to get to this point today because Taihe has not been able to break the Cloud Tower with a hundred years of effort. Today's outcome has long been expected. Fortunately, the Hulutan altar is opened every six months. In the second half of the year, we
There is still hope.”
The head of the Xu family comforted the two elders.
The two elders also sighed: "I hope we can open the Cloud Tower early and get the secret treasure of the Yun Kingdom, so that there is hope for the restoration of the country."
"Yes, not to mention Da Chu, Princess Chang is about to take control of Taihe City. This is not good news. Restoration of the country is imminent before she completely controls Taihe City. Otherwise, it will be more difficult to get Taihe City back in the future.
."
"It's been ten years. I've been studying this chess game for ten whole years and still can't figure it out. I don't know when I can break it!"
"The two elders just need to study how to crack the Cloud Tower, and leave the rest to me. I will definitely not let Princess Zhang succeed."
The head of the Xu family bowed to the two old men and made a promise.
"Oh, come on, come on, come on, I've been waiting for so many years, and within half a year, I will be able to solve this mess!"
"For the sake of Taihe and the restoration of the country, we must be able to solve it!"
A few people regretfully packed up their things and got off the bridge. The people guarding the copper pillar waited for them to come down, and then they turned the copper pillar counterclockwise. After a while, the altar slowly sank to the bottom of the water, and then they put away the lion head key.
The road turned back.
At this time, Li Yewu and Xiao Jiuxi were shocked!
Unexpectedly, the head of the Xu family turned out to be from the Taihe old party! And he has been secretly thinking about restoring the country!
In order to restore the country, they even found the location of the Yun Kingdom's secret treasure!
So, is this altar a legacy of the Yun Kingdom?
What is even more hair-raising is that the Taihe Kingdom has known about the location of this secret treasure for a hundred years, and they have been secretly trying to open the secret treasure for these hundred years!
If Taihe is successfully opened, I'm afraid that someone else will take over the Chu Kingdom, right?
Li Yewu looked at Xiao Jiuxi as if he were watching a good show. At this time, Xiao Jiuxi also had a complicated look on his face.
"Fortunately, my father captured this place before Taihe got the secret treasure!"
I remember back then, when my father was attacking the last subject country, there were still people who thought that my father was ambitious, bellicose and unkind.
In fact, the Taihe Kingdom was secretly brewing a shocking conspiracy, and even carried it out secretly for a hundred years!
If they succeed, I'm afraid Taihe will become the second Yun Kingdom!
Thinking of the horror and bloodshed in the unofficial history about Yun Kingdom's important weapons, Xiao Jiuxi felt lucky that these guys didn't open the Cloud Tower!
Otherwise, the people of Da Chu would already be in purgatory!
Now that the reunification of Da Chu is a foregone conclusion, Taihe's old party cannot be allowed to open the Cloud Tower, otherwise the already messy Da Chu will cause a bloody storm!
They must destroy this place before they open it.
Xiao Jiuxi's eyes showed murderous intent.
"History books are all written by the victors. It would be biased to blindly believe them." Li Yewu touched her nose and silently interjected.
"What do you mean?" Xiao Jiuxi frowned displeased: "I think you are a bit rebellious, girl! Do you hope that Taihe will get the Yun Kingdom's secret treasure and start a bloody storm?"
"I'm just refuting your previous sentence. The Yun Kingdom may not be cruel. As for the Taihe Old Party, I certainly don't agree with them getting the secret treasure."
After all, it is a foregone conclusion that Chu will unify the country, and any attempt to "anti-Chu and restore peace" is just an egg against a stone.
And rather than fighting against Chu and restoring peace, wouldn't it be better to let the people stay away from the war and live a good life?
Her dream town will not be allowed to be destroyed by anyone.
So, forget it if you haven’t discovered it. Now that you have discovered the old party’s trump card, of course you must destroy it!
"Okay, after all, we are in the same boat. What you don't want to happen is what I don't want to happen. Instead of wasting time here talking eloquently, we might as well do something big while the torches around us are not extinguished."
"???" Xiao Jiuxi's eyes widened: "You...what are you going to do? Do you know that your words at this time sound like a gangster!"
"..." Li Yewu.
You are the gangster, and your whole family is a gangster.
In Li Yewu's disdainful and disgusting eyes, Xiao Jiuxi reluctantly took her back to the ground.
Speaking of which, these fires can be ignited semi-automatically, but cannot be extinguished semi-automatically.
Either extinguish it one by one, or let it burn for three to five days before it goes out automatically.
Apparently, these people are used to letting it go off automatically.
But this also greatly facilitates Li Yewu and Xiao Jiuxi.
With the bright environment and knowing the ins and outs of this place, Li Yewu was no longer afraid. She studied the copper pillars carefully, trying to find a way to reopen it.
Xiao Jiuxi crossed her chest with her hands and looked at Li Yewu with a complicated expression. I really didn't know if she was being arrogant or something else.
"Are you not worried at all about how Master Xu will deal with you?"
Li Yewu was stunned for a moment before she realized that just now the head of the Xu family had promised the two old men that he would deal with Princess Zhang.
Speaking of which, thinking of being chased by Long Sanniang last night, Li Yewu had an idea. Could it be that... the unreasonable disaster last night was a gift from the Xu Family Master?
Li Yewu clapped her hands and said angrily: "You old man Xu, you really are a biting dog but don't bark!"
After all, she paid off Xiao Jiuxi's old debt and let him get more than one million into his account. However, this guy didn't want to repay the favor at all and turned around and let her go to a hidden target!
