Chapter 717: Searching for Secrets in an Abandoned House
After doing all this, Ye Ling'er took out a talisman from the space ring and pasted it on the wall at the end of the bed, then said: "This talisman can temporarily seal the demon essence in your body, so that they will be more peaceful and will not destroy your vitality."
After that, she left the secret room and set up some formations so that even if something strange happened to the woman after she woke up, she would not be able to escape in a short time.
Afterwards, Ye Ling'er went to the restaurant again, bought a lot of ingredients, and then came back to make a pot of bone soup. After doing all this, it was almost dark.
Ye Ling'er brought a bowl of bone soup into the secret room and said, "Drink this."
The woman took the bowl and drank slowly. After a few sips, she raised her head and asked in confusion: "Why...why did you save me? Aren't you afraid that I will hurt you?"
Ye Ling'er smiled faintly and said, "Why should I be afraid of you? Besides, you are already injured, how can you hurt me?"
"Thank you." The woman said sincerely.
"You're welcome. We just met by chance. I sympathize with you for encountering such a disaster. Take good care of your injuries." Ye Ling'er said and left the secret room.
Lu Yuan was practicing martial arts in the yard.
Seeing Ye Ling'er coming back, Lu Yuan restrained his efforts and asked, "How did things go today?"
Ye Ling'er briefly explained the situation.
Lu Yuan said: "So that's how it is. Do you think her words are reliable?"
Ye Ling'er pondered for a moment and said, "I don't think she is lying, and her family background should be quite special."
Lu Yuan nodded and said, "You are right. I also suspect that she had some kind of adventure. However, even if she is the descendant of an ancient family, she may not be able to find the treasure. What if the treasure is in the hands of someone else? Wouldn't it be a waste of time?"
Ye Ling'er said in a deep voice: "Let's first find out what the treasure she mentioned is, and then decide what to do. If the treasure is really left by that family, then we must not stand idly by."
"Okay, I'll listen to you. By the way, what was the result of your investigation?"
Ye Ling'er looked solemn and said, "We have confirmed that the Emperor of Zhou is indeed ill and his condition is very serious. This time, the palace guards searched hospitals across the country to find a prescription that can cure the Emperor's illness."
"If that treasure is the relic of that prince, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to snatch it."
Lu Yuan said: "This is a problem. If the treasure is really the relic of that prince, it will definitely attract the attention of the court. By then, the forces of the entire Zhou Kingdom will be involved. It will not be easy to win among so many masters."
Ye Ling'er sighed and said helplessly: "I don't have a better way. But we have to try."
Lu Yuan pondered for a moment, and suddenly thought of a possibility. His eyes lit up and he said excitedly: "I have thought of a way that may help us win."
"What method?" Ye Ling'er asked.
"Since the emperor of Zhou is seriously ill, there must be a famous doctor. We can get information from the emperor. Once we understand the situation, we can make targeted deployments, and the possibility of winning will increase a lot."
Ye Ling'er said: "This method seems feasible. But can the emperor be trusted?"
Lu Yuan said: "It should be possible. I have met him a few times and I think he is pretty good."
"At least that's what it looks like on the surface. In order to stabilize the court, he even killed hundreds of officials, which shows that he has a heart of stone." "But this doesn't mean he is really cold-blooded. The so-called wise rulers and loyal ministers are just pretending. The fact that he was able to endure humiliation and bear heavy burdens for several years proves that this person has ambition, strategy, and means."
“Although these people are not heroes in the true sense, they are definitely not corrupt officials or evil villains.”
Ye Ling'er took a deep breath and said, "Then we'll do as you say, but we still have to be cautious."
Lu Yuan nodded and said, "I know, you don't have to worry about it. Your most important task now is to rest well and recover your condition."
After the two talked for a while, they went about their own business.
The next morning, Ye Ling'er got up early, ate a bowl of egg pancakes and a fried dough stick, and then rode her horse to the abandoned house in the north of the city.
After she arrived at the deserted house yesterday, she lurked here secretly, watching the movements in the house, hoping to take the woman away in the chaos.
However, she watched for a day and a night but nothing happened. So she thought of the dream she had last night. So she decided to go to the deserted house to take a look.
Of course, she still had to cover up well on this trip, otherwise it would be bad if she was discovered by others. Therefore, after leaving the deserted house, she first changed her clothes and put on a hat to cover her face.
After she quietly left the deserted house, she walked around the block and then headed south along the northern edge of the city.
She came to the foot of a mountain, looked up at the mountain, and frowned slightly.
"I don't seem to remember this mountain. It seems that part of my memory has not yet fully awakened."
Later, Ye Ling'er leaped up and landed lightly on the top of the mountain, overlooking the surroundings. She checked carefully and found no danger, so she returned along the original route and rushed to the deserted house.
"You're back. How are you?" Lu Yuan came forward.
Ye Ling'er took off her hat and bamboo hat and handed them to him, saying, "I have already inquired clearly. There was indeed a village called Li's Village near the deserted house. This village is very remote and there are few people living around it."
"It is said that the people there are kind and honest. But after so many years, are they still there? If they have moved away, I am afraid it will be difficult to find them."
Lu Yuan said: "Since this village exists, it means that Li's Village still exists. Moreover, I guess the village is still very lively and people haven't moved away. After all, those people are used to living there. If they change rashly, they will definitely not be able to adapt to the unfamiliar environment."
Ye Ling'er nodded and said, "I hope we'll be lucky enough to run into them."
Then, the two of them continued to move forward and headed towards the deserted house.
Since the distance was not far, it took the two of them only half an hour to arrive outside the deserted house. It was still a gloomy and terrifying scene. The surroundings were overgrown with weeds and dead trees. Not only was it desolate, but it also exuded a weird atmosphere.
"Let's go!" Lu Yuan pulled Ye Ling'er's hand and rushed into the yard quickly, then looked around.
There was no change in the courtyard, except for the spider webs hanging on the walls, which made it look bleak and desolate.
"Huh? What is this?" Ye Ling'er pointed at the corner of the wall in surprise. (End of this chapter)
