Dare to Live Up to the Country and Live Up to Your Honor Ⅰ

The three sat down around the round table, Yan Xi spread the map on the table, pointed to the red mark and said, "Gongsun Mingyue, do you know where this is?"

Gongsun Mingyue looked carefully, and suddenly said after a while: "Unfeeling Valley."

"Yes, Heartless Valley, I think that's where you fell." Yan Xi stared at Gongsun Mingyue and said.

"Yes." Gongsun Mingyue can still feel the fear in his heart at that time until now. It all seemed like a nightmare, breaking his original normal life to pieces, and he guessed that he would never forget it in his life.

Zhan Pei looked at Gongsun Mingyue with an unnatural expression and asked curiously: "Brother Gongsun, why did that Pang Ce stay with you? Was he the one who abducted you back then?"

Gongsun Mingyue's expression became more and more unnatural. He looked at Zhan Pei with a little embarrassment, and said falteringly: "Actually... it's not really abducted by him. At that time, in order to track down clues, I was willing to follow him. let's go."

"Brother Gongsun, how can you trust him? Pang Ce is a treacherous villain, and it's not like you don't know it." Zhan Pei said angrily.

Yan Xi watched Gongsun Mingyue remain silent, he wondered how Gongsun Mingyue would answer.

Sure enough, Gongsun Mingyue heard Zhan Pei's words, and eagerly argued: "No, if it wasn't for him, I would die this time to see you again."

Seeing Gongsun Mingyue's expression, Yan Xi interrupted suddenly: "Okay, don't talk anymore, let's talk about how to find that cave first."

Gongsun Mingyue glanced at Yan Xi, then suddenly looked away. He was a little guilty, afraid that Yan Xi would find out.

Yan Xi pointed down along the red sign, a large area of ​​heavy mountains, suddenly pointed to a hill, he stopped and said: "Actually, we are not familiar with this place, but luckily we met a local A hunter, he told us that his grandfather once inadvertently broke into a paradise on the mountain, but when he tried to find it later, he couldn’t find it anymore. At that time, I kept an eye out and asked him about it. Approximate location, ask Zhan Pei to go with him."

"Yes, yes, that hunter has repeatedly told us that what he said is true." Zhan Pei interjected.

"How did you find that cave?" Gongsun Mingyue asked while looking at the map.

"Brother Yan is here, what else can't be resolved." Zhan Pei said proudly.

"In fact, it's nothing more than secret doors and traps, but these are not important. The important thing is that we really found you." Yan Xi flattened the map again, pointed to the secret rooms they found, and said, "And These places were all taken by Zhan Pei to me, and they should be the secret room where the other party used to transfer gold nuggets."

Gongsun Mingyue looked at the signs, and suddenly pointed to one of them and said, "This is the place where Ponce took me to see. That's where I was caught."

"Do you know who caught you?" Yan Xi asked.

"There are two people in total, and one of them once plotted against me, but it was Pang Ce who saved me." Before Gongsun Mingyue finished speaking, he sneaked a sideways glance at Yan Xi, and then continued, "I know another one, that is Reminiscing about the bamboo in the Xiang Garden."

"It's her?" Zhan Pei suddenly called out.

Yan Xi scolded lightly: "You want everyone to know?"

"I'm sorry." Zhan Pei stuck out his tongue and sat aside wearily.

"Why do these people want to arrest you?" Seeing him drooping his head, Yan Xi couldn't help but hold back his smile, then turned to Gongsun Mingyue and said, "And how could that Pang Ce not be by your side to protect you?"

"At that time, he went to check in the secret room, so it was inconvenient to bring me with him," Gongsun Mingyue said with a dark expression, "Those people came here to get rid of me, and secondly, they probably wanted to use me to lure Pon Ce." , and threatened him."

"Arresting you can threaten Pang Ce?" Yan Xi's eyes narrowed, and he glanced at Gongsun Mingyue, but saw that he bowed his head and remained silent.

Why can you threaten Ponce by catching Gongsun Mingyue? Do those people also see the problem between them?Ponce is an ambitious conspirator, who can threaten him?

"I don't know." Gongsun Mingyue said softly, "Maybe..."

"Brother Yan, do you have anything to discuss here? Should we talk about things that Brother Gongsun doesn't know yet?" Zhan Pei said impatiently. He turned his head and danced to Gongsun Mingyue, " Brother Gongsun, you don’t know, during the time you disappeared, Brother Yan and I have gained a lot.”

"Really? I also gained something, let's see if it is consistent with what you said." Gongsun Mingyue raised her head with a smile, finally everything is about to be revealed, right?Ponce should also be able to wash away his grievances.

"Did Pang Ce tell you?" Yan Xi said something suddenly, which caught Gongsun Mingyue a little off guard. He looked up at Yan Xi's complicated eyes and said, "Yes, because he came here earlier than me, so he Knows more than I do."

"Brother Gongsun, you can't believe what this kind of person says. Isn't he exonerating himself?" Zhan Pei interrupted unwillingly.

"It doesn't hurt to listen to it." Yan Xi said with great interest, "I think you'll talk about it first."

Gongsun Mingyue told Yan Xi everything that Pang Ce had said to herself, and as soon as the words fell, Zhan Pei said urgently: "I didn't expect this Shen Congliang to be so insidious?"

Yan Xi paced up and down the room, connecting Gongsun Mingyue's words with his own doubts in his heart, and a clear clue leaped in front of his eyes. The conspiracy, but is this conspiracy really only aimed at Ponce?

Yan Xi suddenly stood still, looked at the two people in front of him who were looking at him at the same time, and said: "Your uncle is not dead, it is probably true, but why did he do this, and where is he? But it is a tricky question. I think he has two choices. One is to find a secret place to hide. This place should be relatively close, so that he can keep track of the progress of the case at any time. Another choice is that he has a The eyeliner, maybe in the town, maybe in our yamen, can send messages to him who is far away at any time."

Gongsun Mingyue nodded repeatedly, and echoed: "Yes, if his death was a conspiracy in the first place, then he must be eager to know the progress of the case, so that he will know what to do next."

"Yes," Yan Xi continued, "In addition, that Shen Congliang, when I was in Xianyang, I suspected that Shen Congliang was a fake, he didn't look like a court official at all, but he was like a local hooligan. So I think that Shen Congliang should be a deception, the real Shen Congliang probably has arrived in Tianshui Town, but you and I have never seen him, how do you know where he is hiding?"

"Yes, Shen Congliang is a problem." Gongsun Mingyue sighed.

"However, there is still a breakthrough, and that is the Hongdumen you mentioned. I think if I can know the situation in this organization, I should be able to know the identity of Shen Congliang." Yan Xi looked at Gongsun Mingyue suspiciously and said, "But Is there really such an organization? I’ve never heard of it.”

"Regardless of whether there really is one or not, the most urgent thing for us now is to find that Lanzhu first?" Zhan Pei reminded.

"There's no need to look for it, it's definitely not there." Gongsun Mingyue said with a contemptuous smile, "Whether I'm dead or not, she won't take the risk of staying there."

"I think the most important thing right now is to find that Niu Dachuan. If he is really Pang Ce's confidant, then now that Pang Ce is being killed by people from the Hongdumen, he will definitely come out to help us." Yan Xi Sitting between the two of them excitedly, he said, "For us now, the only way to know more inside information is to find him."

Gongsun Mingyue looked up at Yan Xi, with a hint of sadness in his eyes, he asked softly: "Can I not go?"

"Okay, you can sort out the case in the yamen." Of course Yan Xi knew what he was worried about. Anyone or anything related to Pang Ce would remind him of him, although he tried to bury that feeling , But it's easier said than done, Yan Xi can't understand why the people around him are always related to Pang Ce, Gongsun Mingyue is like this, and so is Xiaoman.

Suddenly, Zhan Pei made a gesture of silence, and then listened intently to the movement outside the door, and shouted loudly: "Who is it?" As soon as he finished speaking, he rushed to the door in a hurry, but there was no sound, and there was no sound. See people.

Yan Xi and Gongsun Mingyue also walked to the door together, looked around and said, "Who is it?"

"I didn't see it clearly, but I'm sure someone was there just now." Zhan Pei continued to look around, the dark night gave the other party a good cover, and he finally didn't find the problem.

They all knew Zhan Pei's skills, so if he said there was someone, there must be someone, but this person was able to escape so quickly, it must be due to his strong martial arts, although he didn't catch anyone, but he convinced them. There is an inner ghost. As for whether this inner ghost is an enemy or a friend, they don't know yet, but from now on, they have to be more careful in their actions.

Zhan Pei sent Gongsun Mingyue to the room, and asked with concern: "Brother Gongsun, I think I should sleep with you tonight."

"No need, you know I'm not used to sharing the bed with other people." Gongsun Mingyue stopped immediately.

"I'll just sit on the chair for one night, and I won't compete with you for the bed." Zhan Pei jumped onto the chair beside the bed and sank his body into it.

"Well, I can't sleep with someone nearby." Gongsun Mingyue pulled Zhan Pei up and wanted to push the door out.

"But, how did you and Pang Ce sleep when you were at the bottom of the valley?" Zhan Pei was obviously not happy to see that he was kicked out.

Gongsun Mingyue stopped moving suddenly, he didn't know how to answer Zhan Pei's question, so he had to explain for himself: "Children don't care about adults' affairs." After speaking, he pushed him away again.

"What kind of child, he's not young anymore, so just fool me." Zhan Pei defended feebly as he was pushed out, but even so, he was finally kicked out by Gongsun Mingyue and stood In front of the door, I couldn't help but shook my head and left.

Gongsun Mingyue closed the door feebly, the disguise in her heart was completely removed at this time, the eye sockets couldn't help turning red, the heartache really didn't ease in any way, it still made her unbearable.
