Chapter 902 The Key
Yun Yiyi was taken aback by her decisiveness. At first, she thought that Shao Xiu would propose an additional test in order to quell everyone's doubts. Unexpectedly, she resisted everyone's opinions like this, which surprised her.

However, considering that the owner of the Xuanji Pavilion may be a time traveler, it is not surprising that he is puzzled.

The competition in Xuanji Pavilion came to an end.

Su Ming, Chen Ci and Chunying were left behind, while Yun Yiyi was welcomed by Shao Xiu into the Xuanji Pavilion. Before, they were just playing fields outside the pavilion, but now they entered the pavilion. Yun Yiyi couldn't help being amazed. This underground treasure is greedy, just looking at the layout of the attic of Xuanji Pavilion, she feels jealous.

There are luminous pearls embedded in the wall for lighting, as if they don't need money, there are almost every corner, and Yun Yiyi's heart is itchy to see it, and she really wants to deduct one.

She has earned so much money that she can't afford to buy one, and here are everywhere!
Seeing Yun Yiyi looking at the night pearl on the wall from time to time, Shao Xiu turned her head and asked, "Does Madam Yan like this night pearl?"

Yun Yiyi nodded.

"Lu Miao, go to the storeroom and get one for Madam Yan." Shao Xiu said to one of the twins following him.

Lu Miao left in response.

Yun Yiyi was shocked: "This is too precious..."

"Mrs. Yan, you can keep it at ease, there are still many in the pavilion..." Xi Mu dismissed her surprised expression and persuaded with a smile.

There are a lot more……

Yun Yiyi's mind was buzzing, and she kept repeating these four words in her mind.

She raised her eyes to look at Yan Qinghe, seeing him was also surprised, Yun Yiyi breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that she was not alone.

Shao Xiu didn't walk fast, after a while, Lu Miao chased after her, she took a brocade box and put it in Yun Yiyi's hand: "Madam Yan, here is the Ye Mingzhu."

Yun Yiyi and Yan Qinghe glanced at each other. The lock used in the brocade box was not complicated. She opened it and saw that the night pearl was emitting a faint fluorescent light. She quickly covered the box and handed it to Yan Qinghe for safekeeping.

She was afraid that she would not be able to hold it steady, and it would be a pity if she accidentally fell.

Yan Qinghe pursed his lips, knowing that Yun Yiyi valued it very much, so he held the brocade box tightly.

Shao Xiu led them to a secret room in the pavilion, and sisters Xi Mu and Lu Miao consciously stayed outside to guard.

Yan Qinghe cautiously looked into the room, protecting Yun Yiyi in front of him to prevent hidden weapons from appearing.

There were bare walls all around, only a table, a tea set and a few bamboo chairs, when Yun Yiyi was surprised, Shao Xiu knocked on one of the walls.

With a "click", a corner of the wall came loose, and after Shao Xiu took it down, there was a brocade box inside.

She handed the brocade box to Yun Yiyi: "This is the key."

Yun Yiyi was about to open it, but was held down by Yan Qinghe.

She glanced at Yan Qinghe, but heard him say: "Yiyi, I'll come."

Shao Xiu raised her eyebrows, but said nothing.

Yan Qinghe put the brocade box containing the Ye Mingzhu in her left hand, took the brocade box in her right hand, glanced at her, and slowly opened the corners with his fingers.

Yun Yiyi looked at him nervously, but there was no movement in the brocade box with a gap exposed.

Yan Qinghe opened it suddenly, and there was a simple and simple key lying quietly inside, without traps like organs.

He breathed a sigh of relief, handed the key to Yun Yiyi, and took the box containing the Ye Mingzhu himself.

"This is the key to unlock the underground treasure?" Yun Yiyi held the key with her fingers and turned it a few times for a closer look.

Shao Xiu chuckled: "Underground treasure?"

"Isn't it?" Yun Yiyi blinked, not knowing what she said wrongly made her laugh.

Shao Xiu couldn't help laughing: "I don't know if it's an underground treasure..."

Even Yan Qinghe couldn't figure it out now, he frowned: "What do you mean by that?"

"It means, I don't know if it's an underground treasure..." Shao Xiu pulled a bamboo chair and sat down, picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea, and took a sip.

Seeing that she wanted to talk in detail, Yun Yiyi hurriedly sat down.

"Do you want to drink?" Shao Xiu took out a clean cup and asked Yun Yiyi.

Yun Yiyi shook her head, she didn't know how long she kept it, and she didn't know if she would have diarrhea if she drank it, not to mention that Shao Xiu was just a stranger to her, she would naturally not accept things from strangers .

Shao Xiu didn't care about her refusal, she withdrew her hand from holding the new cup, and poured one by herself.

Yun Yiyi was concerned about the underground treasure, and said, "I don't know what Guardian Shao means, can you explain it more clearly?"

"The owner of the pavilion once said that he would build an underground palace and leave it to those who are destined. As for the news of the underground treasure, we don't know how it got out... However, before he told me where the underground palace is, he suddenly disappeared. , we have been looking for him for many years but have not found a trace. We only found this key and a letter in his bedroom, which stated that if he does not show up after five years, this competition will be held to find someone who is destined , at the end of the letter, I just wrote the address and there is no more writing..." Shao Xiu thought that she would be calm when talking about this matter again, but when she thought about the unknown life and death of the pavilion master, she felt palpitations.

The girl at the time is now in her 20s and has not yet married.

In these years, in order to maintain the operation of Xuanji Pavilion, she did not know how much effort she put into it.

If it wasn't for fulfilling the pavilion master's last wish, she would have given up long ago.

"So you're saying that you don't even know where the underground palace is?" Yun Yiyi paused every word.

Shao Xiu nodded.

The corner of Yun Yiyi's mouth couldn't help twitching, so why does she want this key?Isn't it just a blank check?

"Do you want to keep the letter written by the Pavilion Master?" Yan Qinghe asked, pursing his lips.

Shao Xiu took out a yellowed letter from her sleeve and handed it to Yan Qinghe: "The letter is still with me, I was afraid there might be some clues in it, so I put it away."

After Yan Qinghe took it, she took out the letter inside, and she turned her head to look at it, trying to find some clues.

"It's useless! I've read it many times, but I can't find a clue." Shao Xiu shook her head helplessly when she saw Yun Yiyi's serious look.

She had to read this letter from time to time, but she didn't find any clues at all.

Yun Yiyi read it through and found nothing useful. She looked up at Yan Qinghe: "Qinghe, did you see anything?"

Yan Qinghe frowned: "I didn't find anything, it seems it's just a simple letter..."

Yun Yiyi was immediately disappointed, and she put the letter back in the envelope.

"Shao Hufa, can you give us this letter?"

Seeing her unwillingness to give up, Shao Xiu sighed: "Take it."

"Thank you."

Outside the door, Su Ming and others were waiting anxiously at the entrance of Xuanji Pavilion. Seeing that the time for a cup of tea had passed and the two of them hadn't come out yet, Su Ming was so anxious that he went around in circles.

"Madam, why haven't they come out yet? No, I can't wait any longer!"

With that said, he was about to force his way in.

Seeing him coming, the guards of Xuanji Pavilion quickly drew their swords and laid them across in front of him: "Go one step further, don't blame me for being rude!"

"You're welcome, I'm not polite anymore! What did you do to our wife and lord? You haven't let them out after so long!" Su Ming questioned.

"I've said it all, Shao Hufa has his own arrangements!"

"Arrange your sister! I won't wait any longer!" Su Ming said, pulling out the knife from his waist. Chen Ci and Chunying saw that the situation was not good, so they quickly drew their swords.

At this very moment, Yun Yiyi's voice suddenly came out: "Stop!"

Su Ming looked up and saw Yun Yiyi and Yan Qinghe standing opposite, intact.

He hurriedly shouted loudly: "Madam, my lord, they didn't do anything to you, did they?"

"Don't worry, we're fine."

Yun Yiyi stepped out of the threshold and met Chunying and the others' worried eyes, feeling warm in her heart.

Shao Xiu frowned and looked at the guard guarding the gate: "What is this for?"

"Guarda Shao, if these people want to force their way in, the little ones have to stop them." The guards hurriedly retracted their weapons and clasped their hands together to explain.

Su Ming snorted coldly and sheathed the knife.

"Okay, let's all back down." Shao Xiu shouted, looking at Yun Yiyi and the others: "I'm sorry, I offended you so much."

Yan Qinghe said: "It was a misunderstanding, and Guardian Shao is being polite."

Yun Yiyi found that there were many people around the door of Xuanji Pavilion, and those people were all staring at her, as if she was some kind of delicacy in the world.

Yun Yiyi was immediately disgusted by this thought.

Those people are not greedy for her, they are clearly interested in the key in her hand.

But... this key is just a blank check!

But if you let her take nothing, it will only make her feel more uncomfortable!
She smiled wryly in her heart, it was clear that many people were eager to snatch Mingzi's non-existent things.

Shao Xiu naturally also noticed the prying eyes of the people outside Xuanji Pavilion. She used some internal strength and raised her voice: "Anyone who dares to touch Mrs. Yan is an enemy of my Xuanji Pavilion. This protector is just saying this here. Don't blame me Remind those who don't have eyes, the killing order of Xuanji Pavilion has not been activated for a long time!"

The surrounding people glanced at Shao Xiu fearfully, the leader didn't want to conflict with Shao Xiuqi, and led them away first.

The rest of the people dispersed after a while.

Xuanji Pavilion's hunting order is really hateful. Xuanji Pavilion started out selling news. Someone that Xuanji Pavilion could not find.

Just imagine, no matter where you hide, you may be assassinated the moment you drink water, eat, or go to the toilet, and these people are ignorant, so it is extremely scary to think about it.

Due to the disappearance of the pavilion master in the past few years, the overall strength of Xuanji Pavilion is not as good as before. It has been a long time since a hunting order has been issued, but... a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and no one wants to be the first person to provoke.

Seeing that everyone around had left, Yun Yiyi glanced at Shao Xiu gratefully: "Thank you Shao for your protection."

Shao Xiu raised her eyebrows, and said naturally: "This matter happened because of Xuanji Pavilion, so Xuanji Pavilion will naturally protect you to the end."

At this point, the two parties bid farewell.

Chen Ci originally planned to rush up, but who knew that the crisis was easily resolved, he immediately let go of the sword, and then realized that he was covered in cold sweat.

"Let's go back to the inn." Yun Yiyi said.

Chunying hurriedly helped her into the carriage, followed by Yan Qinghe. The incident was too dangerous this time, so they did not divide the carriage, but surrounded Yun Yiyi and Yan Qinghe.

Yan Qinghe looked around and suddenly asked, "Where is Mr. Xuan?"

"Master Xuan, he went back to the inn to rest." Su Ming replied.

Yan Qinghe frowned, this Xuanzhen always felt a little strange when he was absent at critical moments.

"By the way, madam, I have something to tell you." Su Ming said.

Yun Yiyi looked at him: "Say it."

"Today, when Madam answered the last question, Mr. Xuan came up with the answer before Madam. This matter, this subordinate felt a little strange..."

Su Ming told Yun Yiyi the whole thing. He was shocked before and didn't turn around for a while. It wasn't until Yan Qinghe asked him about Xuanzhen just now that he felt that something was wrong, but according to his brain, it must be thinking If you don't understand, why not tell Yun Yiyi, maybe she knows the reason.

Yun Yiyi and Yan Qinghe looked at each other, and they also saw the seriousness in each other's eyes.
