Chapter 143 Why did you save me?

Song Qinghuan left the tomb with an ugly face.

Shen Chuhan glanced at her, frowned slightly, "Fifth Prince and the others are really not inside?"

Song Qinghuan nodded with deep eyes, really puzzled.

Shen Chuhan looked at Shen Xing, "Shen Xing, can you see clearly? This is really where the Fifth Prince and the others fell just now?"

Shen Xing nodded resolutely, "This servant can see very clearly, she will never be wrong."

Shen Chuhan's eyes narrowed slightly, and his face revealed a look of deep thought.

Song Qinghuan stared closely at the smashed wall, her eyes were also dark, and there was a dark current in her eyes.

Since Shen Xing said it was here, he was right.But at this time, there was clearly no one in the tomb, so that might only explain one problem, Jun Xi knew the way to get out of the tomb, and he had already cracked the mechanism and escaped with Brother Wuhuang.

Thinking of this, he raised his eyebrows and glanced at everyone, "Brother Wuhuang and the others may have escaped from the tomb, let's... let's move on."

Su Jingci and the others were also trapped in the tomb, maybe they would find a way out soon, she didn't want to meet them.Besides, Jun Che is ahead of them, and he has the map of the mausoleum in his hand, maybe he has found the Cang Xie Sword now, and they must catch up as soon as possible to stop it.

If Jun Che got the Cang Xie Sword, with his brutal and ruthless temperament, he might trap them all here to death.

After Song Qinghuan spoke, the others naturally had no objection, and followed her and Shen Chuhan out of the tomb passage.

Once out of the tomb passage, the light of the ever-burning lamp dimmed immediately, and as far as the target could see, there were faint waves of water flowing a few feet ahead.

Mu Bai and Xuan Ying respectively lit torches, held them up high and looked forward, their eyes widened involuntarily, with astonishment on their faces.

The others were shocked when they saw the situation in front of them clearly.

They saw an earthen wall as high as the top of the tomb appeared in front of them, and the torches cast a huge shadow, blocking their way completely.

At a glance, the only access is a small door on the right side of the earth wall that can allow two people to pass through.

Liu Yue was the closest to the door. Seeing this, she took the torch from Xuanying's hand, stepped forward two steps cautiously, and shone the torch in. When she saw the scene inside, she frowned, turned her head to look at Song Qinghuan and said in surprise, " Your Highness, this is a huge labyrinth!"

*
the other compartment.

Song Xuan rescued Jun Xi to no avail, and both of them fell into the boundless darkness behind the cracked wall.

During the fall, Song Xuan bumped his head on the ground, his eyes darkened, and he passed out.

I don't know how long I fell asleep, but suddenly I heard an anxious voice coming from my ear, which seemed to come from the clouds, and my body was also shaken.

He gradually regained consciousness, opened his eyes with difficulty and looked to the side.

What came into view was Jun Xi with an anxious expression on his face. Seeing Song Xuan wake up, his frowns eased, and the nervousness in his eyes widened.

"Great, you're finally awake." She breathed a sigh of relief, holding a fire bag in one hand, and helping Song Xuan sit up with the other, "Do you feel uncomfortable?"

Song Xuan closed her eyes, rubbed her temples on both sides, and when she opened her eyes again, she felt the blur in front of her eyes gradually dissipate.With a sigh of relief, he smiled at Junxi, "I'm fine, you don't have to worry."

As he said that, he glanced around and saw the empty wall, and couldn't help but frowned, "Where is this?"

Jun Xi's eyes darkened, "We've been hit by a trick, this is an empty tomb." After a pause, he glanced at the sparks that were about to go out in the fire pocket, "Do you have a torch on you?"

Song Xuan nodded, took out a torch from his arms and handed it to Jun Xi.

Jun Xi took it, lit the torch, and then looked around.

Sure enough there was nothing.

Song Xuan's eyes focused on a small object in the corner of the wall. He got up and walked over and bent over to look, "What is this?"

Jun Xi raised the torch and walked over, picked up the small object, and put it under the light of the fire, "This is a clepsydra."

"Clepsy?" Song Xuan was startled, "For timing?"

Jun Xi nodded, motioned Song Xuan to hold the torch, then sat on the ground, and took out a cowhide map from his arms.

Although Song Xuan entered the mausoleum with Jun Xi, they represent different interests after all. It is kind of Jun Xi to allow him to follow her. Every time Junxi opened the map to look at it, he avoided it with an excuse.

This time, of course, is no exception.

He glanced at it, quickly retracted his gaze, and walked aside on the pretext of looking around to check the situation.

Jun Xi raised his eyes to look at his back, and a slight smile rose from the corner of his mouth.

She has been in contact with so many princes and concubines. It can be said that the five princes of Yu Kingdom are the only ones who still have a pure heart. His words and deeds really deserve the four characters of "a modest gentleman".

A person like him may not be suitable to be a king, but he is indeed the most suitable candidate for a friend.

Thinking of Song Xuan rushing over to save him just now, the corners of Jun Xi's eyes were a little moist.She has lived a life of disguised as a man since she was a child, and she dared not get close to others because she was afraid of revealing her identity. She had never had such a person treat her wholeheartedly, and she was moved in a moment.

Taking a deep breath, suppressing the tears in the eyes, looking up at Song Xuan, "Song Xuan, come and have a look together."

Song Xuan turned her head, with a slightly surprised expression, and caught a glimpse of Jun Xi's eyes flashing with a clear expression, her heartbeat suddenly jumped for no reason, so she couldn't refuse, cleared her throat and said "OK", and walked over to sit on the ground beside her sat down.

Jun Xi spread out the map and pointed to a place, "Here is the tomb passage we passed just now."

Song Xuan took a closer look and saw that there were several square patterns marked on the back of the tomb passage, and pondered for a moment, "These square patterns are the tomb we are in now?"

Junxi nodded.

Song Xuan's eyes were slightly surprised, "There are so many?" Moreover, there are connecting symbols between each tomb, and I don't know what it means.

Seeing those connection symbols, Jun Xi's face suddenly sank.

"What's wrong?" Song Xuan noticed the change in her mood and couldn't help asking.

"These symbols indicate that the positions of each tomb are interchangeable." Jun Xi said in a heavy tone, "You may not have noticed just now when you fell into a coma, but I felt it. Not long after we fell into the tomb, the tomb clearly Evidence of rotational movement."

Song Xuan was a little confused, "What does this mean? This is the original mechanism in the tomb?"

"No!" Jun Xi's face became more and more gloomy, "The mechanism for transferring the tomb here is just for emergencies. There is no such link in the normal mechanism. Moreover, the mechanism for transferring the tomb needs to be activated manually! This The symbol of the place represents the meaning of artificial activation."

Song Xuan finally heard some clues, and looked up at her in surprise, "You mean, someone secretly manipulated the movement and rotation of the tomb we are in just now?"

Jun Xi nodded heavily, his eyes were turbulent, and his eyes were firmly fixed on the map.Next to the tomb passage, there is a line of small characters written, which is exactly how to activate the mechanism and escape from the tomb.

After reading the ten lines at a glance, "Teng" got up, picked up the clepsydra next to it, and walked to the small hole in the wall.

Song Xuan also got up and walked over.

Jun Xi took off the cover on the top of the clepsydra, revealing a long object inside, which seemed to be made of refined steel.

She pushed the steel bar into the small hole, only to hear a "click" and the sound of gears engaging.

Song Xuan was secretly surprised.

Who would have thought that the small hole in the wall was actually a keyhole, and the key to open the lockhole was actually hidden in the clepsydra?

Feeling a little nervous in my heart, I just stared at Junxi's movements without blinking.

With a movement of Jun Xi's hand, he twisted the steel bar to the right——

But I didn't want to, the steel bar didn't move at all!
Jun Xi's long eyelashes flickered, a little flustered in his eyes, and he twisted it to the right vigorously, but he still couldn't.Feeling unwilling, I also turned to the left, but it was still in vain.

Seeing this, Jun Xi panicked completely, and the hand holding the steel bar also trembled.

"What's the matter? Can't you twist it? Let me try." Song Xuan said, took Junxi's hand, and twisted it vigorously from left to right, but there was no change.Except for the "click" sound of the gears meshing at the beginning, the steel rod was actually stuck in the small hole and couldn't move at all.

"What's going on here?" Song Xuan let go of his hand and looked at Jun Xi suspiciously.

But Jun Xi's eyes turned cold, and his black and white pupils turned serious, "Someone has tampered with it!"

Song Xuan's face immediately darkened when he heard the words, and he immediately realized the seriousness of the matter——

The location of the tomb was reversed, the mechanism was destroyed, someone... wanted to trap them here!
"who is it?!"

He asked deeply, and the next moment, his eyes turned cold, but he had an answer.

Apart from Jun Xi, Jun Che is the only one who knows the secret ways of the organs in this mausoleum!

Could it be... that it wasn't enough for him to kill Jun Han, but he wanted to kill Jun Xi? !

What Song Xuan thought of, Jun Xi naturally thought of it too, with undercurrents surging in his eyes, and his breath fluctuating a bit.

Unexpectedly, she took all precautions, and finally fell into Jun Che's hands!Feeling unwilling for a moment, he let go of the steel bar in resentment, and took a few steps back, with a dejected look on his face.

Song Xuan's face was gloomy, and a mist covered the corners of his eyes and brows.

The top priority now is to find an exit and get out as soon as possible, otherwise Junche may have some other tricks after a long time.

Thinking about it this way, he took two steps forward and carefully inspected the small hole in the wall.

After watching for a while, I suddenly saw thin smoke seeping into the tomb through a small hole in the wall. I couldn't help but look cold, and looked at Jun Xi, "Jun Xi, come and have a look, what is this?"

"Poisonous smoke?" This was Jun Xi's first reaction.

However, his eyes fell under the thin white smoke, and his brows could not help but frown.If it is poisonous smoke, the color of the smoke should be black, how could it be this translucent milky white?

But no matter what, the smoke infiltrated the clepsydra before the water in the clepsydra was exhausted. It must not be a good thing, so she hurriedly pulled Song Xuan back, "I don't know. But it must not be a good thing. Cover your mouth and nose first. "

While talking, the two retreated to the corner of the wall, covering their mouth and nose with their cuffs, while looking for a way out, while carefully observing the movement of the white smoke.

At this time, outside the tomb, there was a ghostly figure wearing a hood. She was holding a stick of incense and stuffing it into the small hole in the wall.

Seeing the curling smoke seeping into the tomb along the small hole, a sinister sneer appeared on the corner of the black shadow's mouth.

There was only a sound of "cha", and the fire pocket was lit, and in the flickering light, the face under the hood finally appeared, with a beautiful face, but the hostility in the eyes made this face a little scary.

——It was Su Yan, the emperor of Ya'an in the Chen Kingdom who shouldn't have appeared here!

She stared intently at the burnt incense in her hand with her cold and stern eyes, and a strong sense of success flashed across her eyes.

Yes, she was not qualified to appear in the Mausoleum of Infinity.

He squeezed the cowhide map in his hand hard, looking a little dazed.

Ever since she found out that Su Rao was the man behind the frame of herself and her father, her only motivation to stay in Lindu was to let Su Rao experience the same pain.

Knowing that she hadn't prepared well in advance for the audition in the forest, and she didn't have allies, she withdrew from the audition after walking for a while, in order to preserve her strength and save her life so that she could wait for Su Rao someday Kneeling in front of her and begging for mercy.

When she heard that the venue of the Sword Seizing Conference was set to be held in the Infinity Tomb, she knew that her chance had come.

But before that, she needs an ally.

She took aim at Junche for this alliance.

She knew that Jun Che was ambitious, and even killed Jun Han at the risk of being exposed.Moreover, he still has weaknesses——

This weakness is that he is lustful.

The news that Jun Che had suffered a serious illness in the brothel that day was widely spread in Lindu. A person who secretly misses Qin Lou and Chu House must not be an upright gentleman who can sit still.

And most importantly, he is from the Jun family.Even if he was suspected of killing Jun Han, with Emperor Zhao's temperament, he definitely didn't want the fat water to flow into the fields of outsiders, so he would definitely hand over the map of the hidden weapons in the Mausoleum to Jun Che and Jun Xi.

If she can convince Jun Che, she will be able to sneak into the mausoleum successfully, and let Su Rao experience the same pain that was inflicted on her that day without anyone noticing it!

So, the day before the Sword Seizing Conference, she dressed up and went to meet Jun Che.

At that time, Jun Che was seriously ill and was not in good spirits, so he had closed the door to thank guests for many days.Hearing Su Yan's request for an audience, although Jun Che was suspicious, he didn't have the heart to deal with it, so he was directly rejected by the guards.

But Su Yan was not discouraged, she still waited outside the door, and only asked the guards to report again, saying that she brought a win-win solution today.

After a while, the guard who went to report came out and invited Su Yan into the mansion.

As expected, Jun Che did not disappoint her. When he heard that Su Yan wanted to infiltrate into the Infinite Mausoleum to deal with Su Rao and others secretly, his eyes lit up.

For him, no matter who it is, as long as they enter the Infinity Mausoleum and grab the sword, they are his opponents, and naturally they can solve one after another.

However, he was also cunning, so he didn't rush to agree, but asked Su Yan what she could give him if he helped her.

Seeing his stare stare up and down, there was deep meaning hidden in his eyes, Su Yan felt as disgusted as eating a fly.But she knows that now she is the one who asks for others, and she has no right to be willful.

"I can give you whatever the second prince wants." She said coldly, she closed her eyes, took off her clothes, and walked over voluntarily.

She didn't want to recall what happened later.

Su Yan pinched the incense in her hand, closed her eyes fiercely, and a teardrop slipped from the corner of her eye.

Although she was disgusted by Jun Che's closeness, she did not regret it.

Jun Che didn't break his promise, not only let her sneak in disguised as a guard beside him, but also gave her a copied map of the mausoleum.

After careful research, she chose this tomb passage to attack.

The organ here is originally poisonous smoke. She just needs to turn off the organ that emits poisonous smoke, and then let the aphrodisiac fragrance fill the entire tomb without anyone noticing...

At that time, Su Rao will be the fish on the chopping board!

Just now, she saw clearly the fight between Su Jingci, Su Fengming and Su Rao against Jun Xi Songxuan in the tomb passage, and she also saw several people fall into the tomb behind the wall.

Perhaps God helped her, but Su Jingci, Su Fengming and Su Rao fell into the same tomb!
Thinking of this, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Since Su Rao frantically let her have incest with her father, let her have a taste of incest with her own brother!Moreover, it's still a match of two men and one woman, with Su Rao's coquettish temperament, maybe I have to thank myself!
For the convenience of operation, she moved Su Rao's tomb according to the method written on the map, and broke the mechanism to escape from the tomb.In this way, nothing will go wrong.

Seeing that the incense in her hand was almost burned, Su Yan held her breath, took out the incense and put it on the ground and stomped it out, settled her fluctuating mood, still put on the hood, and returned along the original road according to the map.

Of course she wanted to wait to see Su Rao's ugly expression afterwards, and the best thing was to take this opportunity to kill her with one blow.

But after thinking about it, if Su Rao died so easily, how could she feel the world's pointing and pointing at her, and how could she feel the pain of living but not dying?That would be too cheap for her.

The days ahead are long, and she wants to take back the pain that Su Rao inflicted on her bit by bit.

Right now, no one has got the Cangxie Sword, and the mausoleum is still safe, so she must escape before then.Otherwise, once the Cangxie Sword is taken away, there will be another bloodbath in this mausoleum.

The only motivation for her to live now is to witness Su Rao's pain, and she doesn't want to be involved in this muddy water.

Quicken your pace and quickly disappear into the darkness.

At this time, in the tomb room, white smoke has filled the entire space little by little.

however--

What Su Yan never imagined was that because she was not familiar with the mechanism here, she mistakenly took the tomb where Song Xuan and Jun Xi fell into while moving several tombs, and took it as the tomb where Su Rao was.

Just now, she only saw the light inside through the small hole, and she was sure there was someone in the tomb, but she never thought that the people in the tomb were not Su Rao, Su Jingci, and Su Fengming, whom she wanted to frame, but Jun Xi and Song Xuan!
Su Yan's figure quickly disappeared, but at this moment, Song Xuan and Jun Xi in the tomb had already sensed that something was wrong.

They leaned tightly against the corner of the wall, looking at the white mist approaching bit by bit, their hearts filled with despair.

Just now, they checked the entire tomb again, but they still couldn't find any exit.Could it be... Are they really going to die here? !

Jun Xi also seemed a little discouraged, put down the cuff covering his mouth and nose, looked at Song Xuan with an apologetic and pale smile, "Sorry, if it wasn't for me, you wouldn't be in danger now."

"Don't say that." Song Xuan waved his hand and smiled openly, "If it weren't for you, it's unknown whether I would have made it here."

In the firelight, he showed his white and bright teeth, his eyes were clear, his expression was as clear as ever, and Jun Xi's heart moved slightly.

After a moment of silence, she murmured.

"Why...why did you save me just now?" He has already come here, and he can complete the rest of the way by himself. Why did he rush forward to save himself at that moment?
Jun Xi stared closely at Song's eyes, and there was a glimmer of Qing Lingling in them.

She really doesn't understand.

The emotions in my heart surged up overwhelmingly, but behind this heavy emotion, there were still doubts and puzzles.

Because of her special background, she has always been vigilant and never trusts others easily. Only Song Xuan can make her let her guard down easily.

Even so, there was still uncertainty hidden in her heart.

In this world, is there really someone who doesn't ask for anything, but simply treats someone well?

Song Xuan's eyes met hers, looking at Jun Xi's beautiful face and clear eyes, a strange feeling flashed in his heart.

why?

Even he himself can't figure it out.He and Jun Xi just met by chance. Even though they had experienced life and death together in Zhihui Forest, it seems...the relationship between the two is not good enough to make him desperate?
He smiled wryly, "If you really want to ask me why, even I don't know. Maybe it's just an instinctive reaction."

Instinctive reaction... huh?

Jun Xi stared at him blankly, the dots of light in his eyes became brighter and brighter.

A strange atmosphere surged between the two.

Her earlobe felt hot, she lowered her head, and for some reason, her heart beat so fast.

Not wanting Jun Xi to see the clue, he hurriedly turned his eyes to change the topic, but when his eyes fell on the mist floating in the air, his eyes suddenly sank.

It turned out that the white mist had quietly dissipated before they knew it, and they didn't know how much they had inhaled.

She looked at Song Xuan in a panic, "Song Xuan, what's wrong with you?" Just now they took the heat-clearing and detoxifying pills they were carrying, but she didn't know what the smoke was, and naturally she didn't know what the smoke was. Pills don't really work.

Song Xuan cleared her throat, shook her head and said, "It doesn't seem to be there, I just feel... just feel a little hot."

After being told by Song Xuan, Jun Xi also felt that his body was getting hot. He frowned, fanned him with his hands, and got up and said, "It seems to be a little hot. But...it shouldn't be."

Suspicious in her heart, she approached the small hole cautiously, but was surprised to find that the smoke seeping through the small hole seemed to have stopped increasing.

What exactly is going on?

She turned her head to look for Song Xuan, only to find that he was standing there, tugging at his collar a little hotly, his brows and eyes frowned.Even so, the gentle temperament on his body quenched the restlessness in his heart.

But in just a moment, the extinguished dry fire came back again.

She finally noticed something was wrong.

The Infinity Mausoleum was built underground, how could it suddenly become so hot? !

He kept his vigilant eyes fixed on the small hole, unwilling to reconcile, picked up the steel rod on the clepsydra and tried again, but it was still in vain!
What's more, she was sweating more and more with the brute force just now, so she had to take out her handkerchief to wipe it off, and turned her head to look at Song Xuan.

Turning around, she was taken aback.

Song Xuan was standing a few steps away from her, with red pupils, staring at him unblinkingly, his eyes seemed to be shrouded in deep fog.

"Song Xuan, what's wrong with you?"

In a panic, she thought that Song Xuan had been poisoned, so she hurried forward two steps, and poked his forehead with her hand.

As soon as her hand touched Song Xuan's forehead, a cool feeling spread all over her body along her fingertips, making her feel refreshed for a moment.

Song Xuan's long eyelashes trembled violently, and couldn't help reaching out to hold Jun Xi's hand.

So cool... So comfortable...

Seeing that his expression was different, Jun Xi withdrew his hand in panic, and said suspiciously in a deep voice, "Song Xuan, you... what's wrong with you?"

She was uneasy in her heart, and her tone was a little serious.

Song Xuan raised her eyes abruptly, as if awakened by Jun Xi, backed away in a panic, and said incoherently, "I...I don't know...I just feel so hot!"

He couldn't help but wanted to tear off the clothes on his body, but when he thought that Jun Xi was still here, his hands froze again, but the burning feeling in his heart became more and more intense, scalding his internal organs like fire The six internal organs are hard to breathe.

Looking at Song Xuan's blushing face and slightly blurred eyes, Jun Xi's heart suddenly felt a pang of itching spread along the tailbone, the itching made people feel really uncomfortable.

She hurriedly turned her back to not look at Song Xuan, but the dryness on her body became more and more difficult to control.

At this time, a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in his mind, and his expression froze immediately.

If the smoke that came in was not poison, the two of them are so hot now, could it be that...the smoke is actually an aphrodisiac? !
　Haha, I didn't even guess it was Su Yan~
