Chapter 176 Listening to the Book of Heaven

"Stop her!" Xiao Jingfan didn't expect that someone who was so afraid of death would hit the pillar so happily without giving him time to react.

He shouted urgently, and everyone stood up in shock.

Several black shadows appeared at the same time, blocking the pillar at the critical moment and serving as a cushion for Chu Liuzheng's head.

Chu Liuzheng died from a head-butting collision. The force of the collision was quite strong. The secret guard could use his internal energy to cushion the impact, but she herself was in a miserable state.

Even though she had flesh pads, the collision still made her see stars, her body went limp and she passed out.

Xiao Jingfan said urgently: "Call the imperial physician!"

"Where is this place?"

Chu Liuzheng stood in an empty hall, looking around blankly.

"I remember I bumped into a pillar. Could this be the underworld?"

She walked around the hall curiously, touching the ornaments on the treasure racks, and muttered to herself, "The decoration style of this underworld is quite similar to that of the imperial palace."

"Don't they say that there are ghosts to pick you up in the underworld? Where are the ghosts?" Chu Liuzheng walked around the hall and didn't see even a ghost.

"Will I become a lonely ghost with no one to take care of me?"

She cupped her hands to her mouth and was about to shout a few times when she suddenly felt something was wrong.

"Eh? How did my hand heal?"

She stared at her intact hands, turning them over and over, and found that they were no different from before she was injured.

"Frog Fun! Is it true that everything written in novels is true, and injuries to the body will not show up in the soul?"

She looked at it with satisfaction for a moment, then put her hand to her mouth again: "Hello! Is anyone there?"

"Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced Ghosts, Black and White Impermanence! Come and take the ghost away!"

"Your Excellency the Judge, are you here?"

"The Ten Kings of Hell!"

"Hey! Someone, pay attention to me!"

Chu Liuzheng shouted for a long time, but there was no response except his own voice.

The palace door was right there, but it was like there was a transparent board blocking it, and she couldn't even step out.

It seems that her range of activities is limited to this hall.

"No way, I really have become a lonely ghost."

After walking around a few times, Chu Liuzheng sat down on the ground in frustration, his elbows resting on his knees, his chin in his hand as he stared at the entrance to the hall, shouting weakly, "Is there anyone here? Even a ghost will do!"

At this moment, a streak of light flew rapidly and passed before her eyes.

Chu Liuzheng was stunned. Just as he was about to see more clearly, he felt dizzy and lost consciousness in an instant.

"Wake up, wake up, Liu Zheng is awake!"

Hearing excited shouts in his ears, Chu Liuzheng's eyelashes trembled. He slowly opened his eyes and saw Moxiang, Xia Qiaoru, Chenxing and Xiao Xiazi standing beside the bed.

Everyone looked excited, which made Chu Liuzheng feel a little confused.

She looked confused: "What's wrong with me?"

"You've been in a coma for two days and two nights." Xia Qiaoru helped her up and leaned her against the head of the bed. Before Chu Liuzheng could ask the next question, she hugged her tightly. Her big tears fell on the side of Chu Liuzheng's neck, leaving a wet and hot area.

Her voice choked with sobs: "You scared me to death, I thought you would never wake up again."

[Two days, no wonder I'm so hungry.]

Chu Liuzheng raised his hand and patted Xia Qiaoru on the back: "Okay, stop crying. I'm awake now, aren't I?"

Xia Qiaoru continued to hug her and cry, while Moxiang and Xiao Xiazi were also wiping their tears.

Chu Liuzheng felt his shoulders were wet from her crying, and said helplessly, "Qiaoru, I'm so hungry."

Hearing this, Xia Qiaoru quickly wiped away her tears and said, "The porridge is warming on the stove. I'll bring it over."

She stood up and ran out like the wind.

Xiao Xiazi went to get a basin of hot water. Moxiang first gave Chu Liuzheng a cup of warm water, then wrung out a handkerchief to wipe her face.

With the warm steam on his face, Chu Liuzheng became more awake and his confused thoughts began to work.

[I remember I was about to hit the pillar, but the secret guard blocked it for me, and then... then what happened? I seemed to... have arrived in the underworld?]

She looked around the room and saw familiar furnishings everywhere. It was definitely her house.

[Hey, I was able to come back to life even after going to the underworld. I'm pretty lucky.]

"The imperial physician said that you hit your head and might feel dizzy when you wake up. Just sit still and don't turn around." Moxiang reached out and pushed Chu Liuzheng's hair behind his ear, looking quite helpless.

"I'm not dead yet, and I don't have any other injuries. Could it be that the tyrant really promised me to that evil-hearted and vicious butterfly?"

Chu Liuzheng blinked and asked anxiously, "Sister Moxiang, what happened after I fainted? Did His Majesty punish me?"

"Don't worry, His Majesty didn't promise you to the Second Prince of Xixia." Moxiang saw what Chu Liuzheng was thinking, patted her arm soothingly, and glanced at Chen Xing who was beside the bed. "Thanks to Chen Xing's cleverness this time, you are safe."

Hearing this, Chen Xing came up with a smile, "I'm so glad that you're okay, sister."

Chu Liuzheng looked at her and asked curiously, "What did you do?"

"Help my sister to redress her innocence." Chen Xing raised his eyebrows, a sly look flashing across his eyes. "My sister has already banged her head against the pillar to prove her innocence. How can I just stand by and watch? Of course I have to help my sister deal with the hooligans."

"Ah?" Chu Liuzheng was stunned. She just wanted to die quickly and not implicate her family. How could it be related to Qingbai?

At this time, Xia Qiaoru came in with a tray, which contained not only porridge but also two small plates of refreshing side dishes.

She first fed Chu Liuzheng half a cup of warm water, then picked up the bowl to feed Chu Liuzheng. Chen Xing, who was standing by, made full use of his eloquence and vividly told the story of seeking justice for Chu Liuzheng, which left Chu Liuzheng, the person involved, stunned.

[Frog Fun! This is outrageous! When did I ever compromise for the sake of my country? Or even sacrifice for Dasheng?]

[Wait! Butterfly has been coveting me for a long time. Why is this a bloody plot where she can't get what she wants and then takes it by force? How come I, the person involved, don't know about it?]

[Damn! How did I become a pure and innocent little white flower? I'm crying to the moon. I'm more like eating cake to the moon.]

"No, why did Tyrant get involved? Tyrant, you are so wise and powerful, don't you think Chen Xing's words are outrageous?"

Unlike Chu Liuzheng who was complaining in his mind, Moxiang and Xiao Xiazi were sitting on the stools and listening with great interest. When they heard the part where Chu Liuzheng hit his head against the pillar, they were so moved that they wiped away their tears.

Chu Liuzheng was so annoyed that he was almost numb.

Could it be that these two really believed it?

She is really not a relative of the Seven Fairies in heaven!

[What the hell is going on here? It would be a waste of talent for Chen Xing not to become a tea master!]

"That's basically what happened. As long as Sister Liu Zheng wakes up and apologizes to His Royal Highness the Second Prince in person, the matter will be resolved."

Chen Xing stopped talking with a look of unsatisfied feeling, took the tea handed to him by Xiao Xiazi and drank it all in one gulp.

Moxiang and Xia Qiaoru applauded, but Chu Liuzheng, the person involved, seemed to be confused.

Although it was very well said, Xin Chenxing's story was completely illogical and she was a fool!

She silently opened the system and decided to be self-reliant.

[Two days ago, Wenhua Hall, Wei Mingliang...]

Got it!

【Hmm? It's so short.】

She clicked it and took a closer look. As she looked, more and more question marks popped up in her head.
