Chapter 315 Temporary Contact Point

What is really important is the abandoned house a few miles south of the city.

It is suspected to be the temporary settlement of "Youzhou Hall" in Yingzhou. Youzhou Hall manages all the secrets in Youzhou. They must have clues about the missing Liao army.

A place several miles away can be reached in an instant.

The carriage stopped, Su Xian and Yang Zhilan got out of the car, and looked at the abandoned house hidden in the forest directly ahead.

It seemed to have been hit by a fire. The buildings on the ground were destroyed, and the surrounding trees were also implicated and turned into scorched earth...

Su Xian looked around, rubbed his eyebrows in disappointment, and said:

"I knew this was an abandoned house, but I didn't expect it to be so completely abandoned. It was completely in ruins. Even if there were clues hidden inside, I'm afraid it would have been destroyed by the fire."

"This house was damaged twice." Yang Zhilan looked slightly solemn, "On the night when the flower picker was arrested, although the house was in ruins, it was still habitable."

"..."

Su Xian was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said, "It seems we are a step too late."

Unwilling to give up, he walked around the abandoned house several times, but in the end found nothing.

"That's it, this clue has been broken again. Let's go back and think of a solution after we get back. The next step is for us to go to Youzhou to see the situation..."

Su Xian waved his hand, turned around and walked back.

Yang Zhilan followed closely behind.

After walking only two steps, Yang Zhilan suddenly looked up in one direction and pulled Su Xian's arm in front of her.

"how……"

Su Xian turned around and was about to ask when he saw Yang Zhilan put her index finger in front of her mouth and let out a soft "shhh".

"what happened?"

Su Xian was horrified and did not ask a question, but used his mouth shape.

Although this place is only a few miles away from Yingzhou City, it is in the wilderness. Could it be that there were thieves?

But then he felt relieved. With Yang Zhilan here, what kind of thieves were he afraid of?
"Over there, there are people."

Yang Zhilan pointed to the woods on the roadside. Su Xian looked around and saw the leaves swaying slightly in the breeze, but there was nothing else.

But out of her trust in Yang Zhilan and her inference that "on the night of catching the flower-picking thief, this house is in ruins, it is still habitable", Su Xian suddenly woke up——

In the darkness, there must be a mysterious force that completely destroyed this house.

And that mysterious force is now watching them...

This matter seems not simple... Su Xian felt trapped in a quagmire-like whirlpool, but he immediately pretended to be a normal person to avoid being noticed by people in the dark.

"Don't worry, young master, that man has left." Yang Zhilan said suddenly.

"Gone?!" Su Xian was stunned, feeling a little embarrassed. Thanks to him trying so hard to pretend to be a normal person just now, his lover's house had already left...

"..."

Just after he breathed a sigh of relief, a bolt of lightning flashed across Su Xian's mind——

Isn't the person spying on me a clue?

At present, the abandoned house has been completely destroyed and the clues are broken.But then a person who was secretly monitoring appeared. This person must be related to this house, so why not follow the clues and continue to investigate?

After being reminded by Su Xian, Yang Zhilan quickly responded: "I can track this person."

Su Xian said: "Well, I'll leave this matter to you. Be sure to find out the identity of this person!"

"Yes!"

Yang Zhilan subconsciously cupped her fists and raised her hands to receive the order.

Then he turned around and headed towards the jungle next to him.

But within two steps, Yang Zhilan returned, looked at Su Xian and said, "No, who will protect the young master when I go? It's too dangerous in the wilderness here!"

Su Xian was startled, and patted his forehead: "Yes, what should we do then?"

He is a realistic person, and his own safety is more important than anything else. It is inappropriate to put himself in danger just to track down a clue.

As the saying goes, a gentleman cannot stand under a dangerous wall...

Well, he was actually afraid of death.

He has been particularly afraid of this since he traveled through time. After all, only when a person is alive can everything be possible, and when a person dies, there is nothing.

Security is always a scarce thing for him.

What's more, what if this is a plan by someone in the dark to "drew the tiger away from the mountain"?

In short, Yang Zhilan couldn't leave him alone.

But, are we going to watch this hard-earned clue break?
Su Xian was in a dilemma for a while.

"Master, don't worry, I can follow this person behind your back." Yang Zhilan's tone was as calm as ever.

"You carry me on your back? But I'm very heavy..." Su Xian looked at her thin body. Her figure always gave people the feeling of being powerless.

Yang Zhilan didn't say much, turned around and squatted down, bending slightly: "Master, come up quickly, that man is about to go far, and I won't be able to catch up if it's too late."

"Then... that's fine!"

Su Xian gritted his teeth and lay gently on her bony back.

And secretly thought in his heart: "Although Zhilan looks thin, she is a top killer after all, and should not be viewed with ordinary people's eyes... maybe..."

No possibility.

Just when Su Xian was thinking wildly, Yang Zhilan stood up suddenly with him on her back, and then suddenly jumped out, her movements as quick as a rabbit and her body as strong as a leopard.

Su Xian's "large pendant" does not affect her actions at all.

And... so fast!
The objects in front of me disappeared quickly, melting into streaks of light. My ears were filled with the sound of wind, and my nose was not breathing smoothly...

Su Xian could only hold Yang Zhilan's shoulders tightly and bury his head in the back of her neck, trying not to hinder her tracking action.

……

……

Thirty miles south of Yingzhou City, there is a mountain of medium size.

There are lush forests and abundant game in the mountains, and the mountain people mostly make a living by hunting and cutting firewood.

But the people nearby and the local government probably didn't know that those seemingly simple mountain people were actually secret agents deployed by the inner guards in Yingzhou.

The entire mountain is also a temporary contact point for the internal guards.

There are more than two hundred people living temporarily in a hidden valley somewhere in the mountains.

These people are the inner guard Youzhoutang Anzi that Su Xian is looking for.

The leader among them is the master of Youzhou Hall - Lady Poison.

In a certain temporary thatched house, a woman in her thirties was walking around anxiously with a three or four-year-old child in her arms, unable to rest for a moment.

This person is the poisonous lady.

The three- or four-year-old child was her only son. His fleshy face was bruised and he looked like he had been poisoned.

The poisonous lady is of medium height, wearing a sarong worn by ordinary peasant women, with her slightly messy hair wrapped in a scarf. Judging from her clothing, she looks like an ordinary woman.

But her face is clean and charming, and ordinary sarongs cannot hide her voluptuous figure. Even if she deliberately dresses like an ordinary woman, she still has a unique flavor.

In addition, her eyebrows were painted very long, with a black flame-shaped flower in the center of her eyebrows, her eyes were fierce and cold, and her lips were painted with black lipstick...

This kind of makeup is in line with her nickname of "Poisonous Lady".

But as a result, she was even less like an ordinary woman. The coarse cloth skirt looked inappropriate on her... I guessed it was a cloth skirt that she had picked up in a hurry.

At this moment, Lady Poison was holding her infant son in her arms, as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. As a mother, she also had a gentle side. She looked at the child with her eyes tightly closed and cried:
"It's all my mother's fault. It's all my mother's fault. I didn't take good care of you. I shouldn't have let you break into the poison room and end up suffering from severe poison..."

"My mother has taken the medicine for you. If you don't wake up in another quarter of an hour, there will be nothing I can do for you."

"Unless you find Butterfly Valley Doctor Li and ask for a 'Butterfly Detoxification Pill'."

"But Shushan is thousands of miles away... Even if you are lucky enough to find Divine Doctor Li, he may not be willing to give you Butterfly Antidote Pills..."

"Son, it's all my mother's fault..."
