Luo Xiyao felt Ding Zhen's pulse first, then touched his face carefully, then opened his bun, and took out a silver needle from the back of his head.

"This is..." The thin man gasped as he looked at the length of the silver needle. With such a long thing piercing his brain, is Ding Zhen still alive?

"He's awake." Luo Xiyao said, "If there is still water in the water bag, give him some."

"Why is there a silver needle on Grandpa Ding's head?" Ping An sensed that the atmosphere was not right, and whispered, "Did Grandpa Ding prick himself?"

If it wasn't for Ping An being too young, Luo Xiyao would have thought that he was going to play tricks on Xiao Ke when she heard his words, who could give such a needle to the acupuncture point in the back of her head?
The angle of this needle is tricky. If it is shallow, it will bleed, and if it is deep, it will cause death.

Even if Ding Zhen didn't want to live, he definitely wouldn't want to die like this.

Fatty also understood at this time, and said solemnly: "The person we met in the secret realm...is Xiao Ke?"

He Lan Linzhang sighed a long time, and said: "Doctor Ding has been with the thin man all the time, so the person who enters the secret realm is naturally someone else."

He looked at the thin man and asked, "How long did it take from when we went up to the third floor to when we appeared in the main hall?"

The thin man squatted next to Ding Zhen, clasped the wooden pier unconsciously with his fingers, and said, "After you climbed up the pillar, we worried that the main hall would be too quiet and fell asleep, so we played games with Ping An... Later, Doctor Ding suddenly collapsed……"

"When he fell down, how long had he been away from us?" Luo Xiyao asked.

Ping An scratched his neck and said, "Two quarters of an hour?"

When he was in Ximing Temple, he would sneak out to play when the master was busy, so he would be more concerned about how long it took to play the game.

"I was a little scared and wanted to ask you to come down and take a look, but Uncle Xiao Jin said, don't disturb you. We could hear you walking around at that time, I guess you are very busy..."

The thin man said: "I checked Dr. Ding's pulse, and his pulse was stable, so I didn't bother you. Besides, your footsteps became faster and faster, and then there was no sound. I'm really worried... I met a lot of weird people again. Bugs, I had to take them up to hide."

"I'll go to the second floor first, and then ask Ping An to tie the rope to Dr. Ding's body, pull him up, and then Ping An up."

"I just want to take a rest and catch my breath, but the stone pillar suddenly broke."

"I wanted to go up and have a look, but the temple was too high, and I failed after several attempts, and almost took Ping An down."

The thin man thought for a while, and said, "We didn't hear your movements until we came up, that is to say, you disappeared from the third floor for less than an hour, and we went up to the second floor. Then, about two quarters later, you appeared in..."

He pointed down, "It's been less than an hour and a half since we separated."

Luo Xiyao pondered for a moment, then said to the thin man, "Go and ask Yuan Mingde how they left the coffin, and how they entered the secret place in the temple."

"I'll go right away." The thin man nodded, got up and took two steps, then turned his head and reached out to Ping An, "Do you want to go together?"

Ping An looked at Ding Zhen, at Luo Xiyao, then at the skinny man, and finally stretched out his hand towards the skinny man.

"How do you feel? Do you feel dizzy and have a headache?" Luo Xiyao raised her hand and shook it in front of Ding Zhen's eyes. Seeing that his eyes were still foggy, she opened the water bag and poured some water on his face, "Are you awake?" ?”

"Yeah." Ding Zhen sat up slowly, reaching out for water.

After taking a few sips, he took a long breath and said: "I just can't move, I can hear what you say. You disappeared from the third floor and entered the secret realm, and then you disappeared from the secret we found in the main hall. Did the Tao appear?"

He glanced at Ping An in the distance, and said softly: "I doubt Xiao Ke. Do you remember the stone walls in the underground river that can block the sound? Although the thin man said he heard the sound, it may not be true."

"No matter what, Xiao Ke didn't kill them all, forget it!"

Luo Xiyao didn't expect him to be so generous, "What did you find?"

Ding Zhen was a little embarrassed, and after a long silence, he said: "Ke's surname is neither too many nor too few. There is a doctor named Ke in the Imperial College of the Eastern Qi Dynasty. His family has been involved in the rebellion case of Princess Ronghui's son-in-law."

"This Dr. Ke's daughter married into the mansion of Princess Ronghui." Luo Xiyao said with certainty, "Conspiracy is a serious crime against the nine clans. It is not easy for the fish that slipped through the net to swim out. Someone happened to replace them and died. In it, they can get away."

"Yes." Ding Zhen said, "When playing games with Ping'an, Ping'an joked about the skinny man's hands that were stained by my medicine, and unintentionally mentioned that his master was injured once, and the medicine applied peach blossoms on his wrist."

"Before I was admitted to the imperial hospital, I treated Ke's family. Their children had peach blossom birthmarks on their wrists."

"When I saw Xiao Ke for the first time, he was wearing monk robes, fake eyebrows and a fake beard, so I didn't pay attention. After entering the underground palace, I didn't have the opportunity to pay attention to his appearance, but I also felt that he was very kind. .”

"It wasn't until Ping An painted peach blossoms for Shouzi that I realized...his eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar to Dr. Ke's."

"I have a weird personality, and I was still irritable when I was young. If Dr. Ke hadn't helped me speak up, there would be no place for me in the Imperial Hospital. How could I be appreciated by Emperor Dongqi and sit on the court judge's position and enter the Royal Library..."

"I like medical skills, and I have never even paid attention to other things, but I am also very clear about the cruelty of royal power struggle. Sometimes there is no right or wrong, only success or failure."

Luo Xiyao thought for a while, and said: "Whoever wins the hearts of the people wins the world, as long as the people are fed and clothed, who cares about the name of the person sitting on the throne?"

"However..." Luo Xiyao changed her voice and said, "Xiao Ke can grow up safely, there must be someone to protect him. Do you think this person is Princess Ronghui?"

"Princess Helan is so curious, wouldn't it be better to ask me in person?" Xiao Ke stepped out of the shadows and bowed deeply to Ding Zhen, "I'm sorry."

Ding Zhen snorted coldly, breathless, choked himself, coughed several times before saying: "Shoot quickly and accurately, not like Lao Ke's family, but like the Bai family."

The white of Princess Ronghui.

"It's my fault, please forgive me, Mr. Ding."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Ke looked at Luo Xiyao, "It's all thanks to the help of the princess. It's just that I didn't expect that Bai Yanwen and Bai Yanxin would bring people here. In order to keep the Wushen Temple, I had to open the temple formation. All the worms in the eggs break their shells, echoing with the swarm of insects in the secret realm, the gate of the secret realm will be reversed, and if you know how to jump out, you can leave the underground palace."

"It's safe, please everyone. If I'm lucky enough to be alive, I will pick him up and leave." Xiao Ke took a deep breath, smiled, and said: "The moonlight in Lengquan is very beautiful. Go see."

"Ke Yidong." Luo Xiyao suddenly stopped him, "You don't want to say something to Ping An before you leave?"

As she spoke, she raised her hand and grabbed Xiao Ke.
