Chapter 513: A scene that cannot be described in words
Xie Yingmian: "Do you still remember the smell in the thick fog?"
Fu Mo: "I don't remember much, I just vaguely remember that the smell was a bit like sulfur, and a bit like the stench of burning corpses, it was very unpleasant."
"I was lucky enough not to die or go crazy, but from the second day on, my throat felt burning, my voice was hoarse and I couldn't speak, my hands and feet became limp, and I had to stay in bed for a whole month before I could get out of bed and walk."
"Every year during the Ghost Festival, many homeless beggars and ordinary people die."
"Anyway, it's quite weird, so we should avoid it if we can."
When he said this, Fu Mo had already seen the gate of Prince Ling's Mansion.
He swung the whip faster and returned to Prince Ling's Mansion as quickly as possible.
Xie Yingmian had some vague guesses in his mind.
This thick fog was most likely not naturally generated, and what Fu Mo saw and heard did not seem like a ghost.
It was more like hallucinations caused by inhaling too much thick fog.
The so-called Night of a Thousand Demons and the so-called personal experience may all be due to excessive inhalation.
This speculation still needs to be verified, so Xie Yingmian did not mention it to Yu Lingye.
She thought of something else.
"Aye, the thick fog can swallow up all the light. Can we take this opportunity to go to the Lu family?"
Yu Lingye narrowed his eyes and asked, "You want to take advantage of the Ghost Festival to explore the Lu family's secret room at night?"
Xie Yingmian: "I think this is a good opportunity."
"When I was investigating Chu Xiao today, I made some new discoveries."
The reason why she postponed giving Chu Xiao treatment was,
One reason is that today happens to be the Ghost Festival, and it is close to the hour of You.
It is better to believe it than not. If Chu Xiao accidentally dies after going out or encounters other accidents, the Grand Princess may blame herself for the rest of her life.
Another reason was that Chu Xiao's heart meridians and meridians were all severed, so it was reasonable to say that he could not be saved.
To her surprise, Chu Xiao's heart had a mysterious connection with the longevity stone placed in the coffin.
It was as if there was something in Chu Xiao's heart, and a thread extended from that thing, which connected to the longevity stone in the coffin.
The energy of the Longevity Stone slowly flowed into Chu Xiao's heart through this line, maintaining this weak and almost imperceptible heart pulse and sustaining Chu Xiao's life.
This was also the main reason why she told the Grand Princess Chu Xiao that she could connect her heart pulse first and then receive treatment.
She guessed that something might have been implanted in Chu Xiao's heart.
She couldn't think of anyone else who had implanted this thing except Xie Jingyun.
Since Xie Jingyun was able to implant something into Chu Xiao's heart, he might also have something in his own heart.
That is to say.
Xie Jingyun in the Lu family's secret room also has the possibility of waking up and recovering.
Her investigations into Xie Jingyun have always been relatively smooth.
It will be difficult to investigate Shen Yu's case.
Instead of going far away to investigate Chen Yu, it is better to take this opportunity to wake up Xie Jingyun.
It is much easier to ask Xie Jingyun directly than to guess like she is opening a blind box.
Xie Yingmian said, "The Lu family is guarded by layers of secret guards. In the past, we would not have been able to get close to that place."
"Today is different."
"If there's thick fog at night, perhaps we can take advantage of it."
Yu Lingye was considering the feasibility.
The emperor used the immortal stone to keep Xie Jingyun alive, most likely wanting to wake Xie Jingyun up and let Xie Jingyun heal him.
Right now, the emperor has completely locked onto Yingmian.
Xie Jingyun became a useless chess piece.
Even though the chess game was abandoned, the emperor never relaxed his surveillance on Xie Jingyun.
The reason why the emperor did this was very simple. The emperor was afraid that Xie Jingyun and Xie Yingmian would meet.
The Ghost Festival is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
However, even Fu Mo, who is a martial arts master, could not withstand the thick fog of the Ghost Festival.
Their people were afraid that they would not be able to complete the mission in the thick fog.
"Are you worried about the thick fog?" Xie Yingmian asked.
Yu Lingye nodded: "The thick fog should not be underestimated."
"I have a plan," Xie Yingmian said. "When the fog gets thicker, we'll do an experiment. If it succeeds, we'll move on to the next step. If not, we'll put this plan on hold for now."
Yu Lingye agreed.
Xie Yingmian was lying on a rattan chair, fanning herself intermittently.
"What do you think the emperor is thinking?"
"Xie Jingyun is in the Lu family's secret room. If he wants to test me, why not use Xie Jingyun to test me? Why bother to go all the way here and bring Chu Xiao back?"
"Only Chu Xiao was lucky enough to survive the bumpy ride of a thousand miles."
"If Chu Xiao wasn't so lucky, he would have died on the road."
Yu Lingye softly uttered two words: "Control."
Xie Yingmian raised her eyebrows, waiting for Yu Lingye to continue.
Yu Lingye explained: "The emperor cannot control Xie Jingyun."
"The emperor knew Xie Jingyun's background very well. He knew that Xie Jingyun was from the 29th century. He also knew that there was something else in Xie Jingyun that he didn't know about. Even if he became emperor, he couldn't do anything to Xie Jingyun. He could only use that method to imprison him."
"The emperor can't control you either."
"If you awaken Xie Jingyun, the only people he can't control will be you and Xie Jingyun."
"The emperor is a man of deep thoughts and suspicion. He cannot accept two people he cannot control."
"You control the Immortality Stone, and Xie Jingyun controls the knowledge of weapons from the 29th century. If the two of you were to meet, the consequences would be beyond the Emperor's control."
"So, he would rather move Chu Xiao's coffin back from thousands of miles away than let you contact Xie Jingyun."
Xie Yingmian suddenly understood.
To put it bluntly.
The emperor was afraid that she and Xie Jingyun would join forces to cause trouble.
She bared her white teeth and said, "I am a rebellious person. I will give the emperor whatever he fears."
"I will rescue Xie Jingyun tonight."
Yu Lingye didn't object.
But he had concerns.
"If the coffin becomes empty, the emperor will find out, which might cause unnecessary trouble."
Xie Yingmian: "Don't worry about that. I have a solution."
"Sui Sui, come here and give us one of your little treasures."
Sui Sui shuddered and refused very bluntly: "No!"
Xie Yingmian: "If you contribute one, I'll buy you three more."
Sui Sui hesitated for a moment and then agreed.
It came out of the empty stone space, dragging a paper man that was much taller than it.
The paper figure is a man.
It has eyes, nose and hair, and is very realistic.
In dimly lit areas, it looks almost like a real person at first glance.
The veins on Yu Lingye's forehead twitched several times.
When did she hide this thing in her empty stone space?
Xie Yingmian was also speechless about the origin of this paper man.
"A few days ago, Suisui saw the owner of the coffin shop making paper figures. They were so lifelike that Suisui was fascinated and insisted on buying them." Xie Yingmian explained with veins throbbing on his forehead.
"After I bought them, I put them in his room. These paper figures have become his little treasures."
She was embarrassed to say that Suisui bought ten in total.
Ten paper figures with different appearances.
There are strong men, generals, and scholars...
Various paper figures were placed in a row in the room.
Her vocabulary was too limited to describe the scene in words.
