Chapter 168: The Best Plan
Everyone laughed, Gu Xiangxiang walked up and patted my shoulder: "Stop being sour, we don't have such a blessing."
"Oh, it's so hard!" Gu Xiangxiang and I sang and said.
After a while, Sun Jin left with herbs and Ye Jian. Gu Xiangxiang changed the medicine for Jin Wanzhong and went out to do things.
I went to take a look at Jin Wanzhong. He stayed in the wooden barrel with his eyes closed, as if he was taking a rest. I didn't wake him up, so I went straight to the bamboo building and calmed down to study the mental method of thunder-induced palms.
After lunch, I took a nap. Maybe I was thinking about Xia Xiaowei during this period, so I dreamed of Xia Xiaowei as if I had thought about it at night. In my sleep, I really dreamed of Xia Xiaowei.
I dreamed that she was still curled up in the ice coffin, but Huang Zhaoran next to me suddenly opened her eyes and smiled gloomyly at me. Her face kept changing to the appearance of different women, which was particularly scary.
Her heart kept beating, with a very large amplitude, as if it was about to pop out as soon as it was up and down.
Suddenly, with the sound of a thunderbolt, the lid of the ice coffin was kicked away by Huang Zhaoran. She suddenly stretched out her hand and pulled me into the ice coffin. She bared her fangs and bit it down on the artery on my neck!
"No!" I woke up suddenly, touched the sweat on my face, and looked at the balcony. The sun was still fierce at this time, and it seemed that it was around three o'clock in the afternoon.
How could I have such a dream at noon?
I got up in annoyance and prepared to take a shower. The faces in the dream kept flashing in my mind. Just as my feet were putting into my shoes, an idea suddenly broke into my head!
The lid of the ice coffin should be controlled by the spokesperson, but before, I could communicate with Xia Xiaowei in the ice coffin through my own blood, and the female ghost inside could also come out of the ice coffin through my blood and attach it to me.
In other words, if I find a way to directly threaten Huang Zhaoran in the ice coffin, I can communicate with her and let her open the lid of the ice coffin.
And how to threaten Huang Zhaoran, I also thought of a way, that is, the life-substitute card in the ancestral hall, which is the existence of her body that is not corrupt and her soul is immortal. If the life-substitute card is destroyed, she will be completely finished.
Thinking of this, I was almost so excited that I couldn't sit still. I really wanted to run to the ancestral hall now.
But all I imagined was based on the fact that I could get the life-substitute card, stand in front of the ice coffin, and communicate with Huang Zhaoran in blood.
If I thought of this before I was exposed, it would not be difficult to operate, but now it is very difficult. Once I get close to the ancestral hall, I will be discovered.
What to do, what should I do?
I sat back on the bed and tried hard to think of a solution.
Now when I go to the ancestral hall, I must not go secretly. I can’t play with the spokesperson. So, if I want to go, I have to find someone to help me and go there with justice!
There are only a few people who can help me, Su Yurao and Sun Jin, which is the best choice.
Su Yurao is very busy now for her cultivation, so the best thing I can hope for is Sun Jin.
If it was the past, I would have asked Sun Jin for help, it would be too easy, so she would feel comfortable sleeping and she would agree to me with everything, but now with Ye Jian, she might not want to pay attention to me.
Moreover, the matter of the ice coffin does not seem to be suitable for Sun Jin to know.
I hesitated and thought about it. I should wait for Su Yurao. After all, there is a higher level of trust between Su Yurao and me.
After taking a cold shower, I walked towards Su Yurao and arrived at the cell. Su Yurao had not come back yet. Looking at the gradually darkening sky, I felt a little anxious.
After waiting, it was only after five o'clock that the sun was left with the last trace of afterglow, and Su Yurao still didn't come back.
I was a little disappointed. When I stood up and was about to leave, I heard Su Yurao and He Xinyu talking and walking towards me. My heart moved and I quickly met.
When He Xinyu saw me, she was stunned at first, and then smiled and said, "Zhou Bolai has something to talk about. I am tired, so I will go back and rest first."
He Xinyu is now following Su Yurao to do things behind him, and has his own room, so he tactfully left the space for me and Su Yurao.
When He Xinyu left, Su Yurao rushed up and pressed me on the bed, impatiently tearing my clothes: "I haven't seen you for so long, I miss you so much."
"Hey, Su Yurao, I'm here to find you..."
"Shh, don't talk!" Su Yurao's lips pressed down, not giving me a chance to speak.
I can only give up for the time being. Asking for others to do things can only meet other people's needs. What's more, I am with Su Yurao, and it's very easy for us to know how to meet each other's greatest needs. In joy, dual cultivation can improve both parties' internal strength.
And this time, when Su Yurao and I did it, it was obvious that it was different from before. Her ability was greatly enhanced. When we came down a few times, I felt that my blood was boiling, and my dantian was filled with unprecedented volume.
When we reached the peak again, I couldn't help but exclaim: "You really surprised me!"
"You are not bad either!" Su Yurao closed her eyes lazily, enjoying the afterglow, and said slightly.
I stroked her unparalleled little face and asked for a serious matter: "Su Yurao, I want to ask you to do me a favor."
"I knew you suddenly came to me and there was no good thing. Let's talk, we don't have to see each other." Su Yurao said, looking at me with half-squinted eyes.
I turned over and said, "I want to meet Xia Xiaowei."
"Do you know where Xia Xiaowei is?" Su Yurao suddenly became serious. The relationship between her and Xia Xiaowei was also very good. When something happened to me at that time, Xia Xiaowei was imprisoned by the spokesperson from Su Yurao's hands. Therefore, Su Yurao has always been resentful about this matter.
Now, she must be very concerned about Xia Xiaowei.
I reached out to cover her scattered hair, gently covered it behind my ears, and whispered: "I will tell you a secret. Your former patriarch is still there."
"Really?" Su Yurao said in surprise, but then calmed down again. "I had thought about this possibility before. After all, the clan leader passed away and did not hold a funeral, nor did he hear that he was buried there. However, he had never found a place where the corpse could be hidden. Later, gradually, I forgot about this matter. Tell me, where is the clan leader's corpse now and how is it?"
"In the ancestral hall, it is well preserved and lifelike." I said concisely and did not explain too much.
Su Yurao immediately recalled: "The west room of the ancestral hall has never been opened since I came to this village. It is said that the bronze lock in the room had been lost for a long time ago. People say that there were unclean things in the west room. Once released, the whole village would suffer. It seems that this is just to cover up some secrets!"
"The west room is nothing special. There is only an ice coffin inside. The clan leader's body and Xia Xiaowei are lying inside now. I am very worried about Xia Xiaowei, so I want to ask you for help and help me find an opportunity to get close to her once." I said.
Su Yurao frowned and looked at me, wonderingly: "How do you know so much?"
Just when I wasn't sure how to explain, Su Yurao suddenly said to herself: "I understand. Grandma Yin must have told you that there is nothing in the village that can hide from Grandma Yin, but I have limited ability. How can you help you if you want me?"
I suddenly breathed a sigh of relief: "The person guarding the spokesperson in the ancestral hall, I need you to help me lead those people away, and then I have to find a way to open the bronze lock before I can see Xia Xiaowei."
"It is definitely no problem to pull those followers away. The difficulty is to open the bronze lock. The lock is very special, with many mechanisms inside, and it is not something that ordinary keys can work." Su Yurao analyzed.
I nodded: "I can only try my luck. If I can't find the key, I can only use violent means."
"Some things cannot be solved by violence. Do you really decide to take this risk?" Su Yurao once again sought my certainty.
I actually didn't make up my mind. If I didn't go, I wouldn't have a chance. If I went, what if the key was still in place?
People say that people are very skilled and brave, so the key is placed there, and the spokesperson is not afraid of being taken. The key is that after opening the door of the west room, it is the most difficult level to open the ice coffin. It is precisely because opening the ice coffin is more difficult than opening the bronze lock, so the key becomes useless.
Thinking of this, I nodded: "Yes, I'm sure I'm going to take this trip. No matter whether I can see Xia Xiaowei in the end, I have to win it once."
"Okay, let's prepare first and do it in the middle of the night, okay?" Su Yurao asked, looking eager to try. Obviously, she has been practicing for so long and has itchy skills. She probably wants to try her skills.
We cleaned, put on tights, planned the action route and retreat plan, and set off.
When I passed through the woods and came to the suspension bridge, I was afraid that I would meet a man from the tower at the suspension bridge. That would be the end. If there were some followers in the ancestral hall, Su Yurao and I would have to divide the work and cooperate, and the risk would be halfway.
Fortunately, there was nothing on the suspension bridge, and the man in the tower was not here.
"I will first cross the suspension bridge and go to the ancestral hall to see if there are any followers guards. If there are, I will try to lure them all out. You will be fast, and if there are no, everyone will be happy." Su Yurao explained.
I nodded, hugged her forehead and kissed her: "Be careful, don't be hurt, I won't force you to see me."
"Don't worry, I'm absolutely safe in doing things, not to mention that I want to see what the ice coffin looks like." After Su Yurao said that, she hugged her waist and quickly passed through the suspension bridge and moved towards the ancestral hall.
