The emperor read the story book in the memorial

Zhao Linxu's body was placed in an ice coffin for safe preservation. The ice coffin was cast with a secret technique by Dan Xi, which can preserve the body of ordinary people for a long time.

Li Jianyu hugged Zhao Lang to see Zhao Linxu. Zhao Lang was very obedient at the moment, and he didn't cry. He just nestled quietly in Li Jianyu's arms.

Arriving at the deepest attic of Jinyue Mansion, Li Jianyu opened the door and saw the ice coffin in the center, and his whole body froze.

"Jianyu." Chongxi pressed Li Jianyu's shoulder and said, "Are you ready?"

Wan Yunliu stood aside and looked at Li Jianyu worriedly, but it was not easy to intervene, so he could only look at him with concern, clenched his fists and hated his own powerlessness.

"All right."

Li Jianyu took a deep breath and walked towards the ice coffin.

Zhao Linxu lay unconsciously in the long box with his eyes closed, his body was covered by the phoenix totem, and his complexion was paler than usual, but he couldn't resist the domineering aura of his facial features.

Li Jianyu hugged Zhao Lang and stood beside the ice coffin and watched without saying a word. He just watched for a long time until Zhao Lang woke up.Li Jianyu asked his servants to hand Zhao Lang over to the nanny, while he bent down and kissed Zhao Linxu through the ice coffin.

"Zhao Linxu, wait for me."

Such a person should not lie in it.

Li Jianyu smiled wryly, if it wasn't for protecting Zhao Linxu, it wouldn't be the case, now it's up to him to protect Zhao Linxu.

After finishing speaking, Li Jianyu turned around and asked, "Where is Qing Luo?"

Feng Gu Qianli said: "Come with me."

A prison was built underground in Jinyue Mansion. The prison is small in size but extremely strong. At the moment, this prison is strictly guarded, and Zhao Zhanqi and Xu Zheng also come to personally patrol from time to time.

At this moment, Feng Guqianli held a torch and led a few people slowly down the stairs leading to the basement, towards the deepest part of the prison.

At the end of the prison is a torture room, in which there is a towering and huge torture frame.This torture rack has just been built and is specially prepared for Qingluo.

After Feng Gu Qianli came to the execution room, he saw Qing Luo naked and tied to the torture rack.A few thick iron bars were nailed to the torture frame, and inserted into Qing Luo's limbs and various parts of his body. Although the blood had been stopped by the iron bars, Qing Luo's body was still covered in a striking dark red. .It looked especially terrifying in the dim light, like a ghost with a rotting body.

Qing Luo's face was pale, and he couldn't even cry out.With his head down, weak, he hangs his last breath and looks up at Fengju Qianli.

Feng Gu Qianli raised his eyebrows, stepped forward and pushed one of the iron bars and laughed: "It hurts?"

Qing Luo gasped, his whole body twitching.

"It's right that it hurts. Xiaoxi also hurt like this back then. Those who were squeezed by you also hurt like this." Feng Guqianli shook his head and said, "Tell me, is there a way to recover from the injury of the gunpowder?"

Qing Luo forced a sneer, looked at Chongxi and Li Jianyu with a ferocious expression, and said, "You...you were just my...cough...playthings..."

Chong Xi raised his eyebrows slightly.

"You still have a lot of strength and thoughtfulness." Feng Guqian's face was gloomy, and he pulled the iron bar with all his strength, pulling out a large piece of flesh.

"Ahhhhhh——" Qing Luo twisted his body and uttered a tune-changing cry.

"I'll ask again, is there a way to recover from the wounded by gunpowder."

Qing Luo stared fiercely at Feng Gu Qianli, as if trying to swallow him alive with his eyes.

"A few days ago, you forced a confession about the Qinglian Sect and its members. You finally said it. Shouldn't you learn to be good? After all, you have to say it at the end, so why not save yourself the pain."

"Drink...drink...cough..." Qing Luo looked at Li Jianyu and said sharply: "This matter...why don't you ask...the city lord...cough, there is no... solution in Fenghuang Ridge?"

Phoenix Ridge...?

Li Jianyu frowned slightly.

He seems to have heard...

correct!It was Xiao Jiuer who told him, and Xiao Jiuer knew that it was because the witch and mother-in-law told him, and wanted him to pass on the information and stories about Phoenix and tell Li Jianyu.

Seeing that Li Jianyu seemed to have an idea, Feng Guqianli put down the iron bars, and they left the cell.

There is a small courtyard above the prison. Walking along the path in the courtyard, Li Jianyu explained: "Fenghuang Ridge is the old nest of the phoenix, and it is said to be the largest habitat of the phoenix. But except for the phoenix, ordinary people cannot find it or enter it."

"Maybe there is a secret that can save the emperor." Chongxi said, "We can accompany you there."

Li Jianyu nodded and said with a smile, "Thank you."

XXXXXX

A few days later, a small team set off from Jinyue Mansion to the Dafan border and left the border.

It is said that Fenghuang Ridge is in Dafan.

Dafan formed an alliance with Feng Juheng and sent goblins to support Feng Juheng.Now that Feng Juheng is defeated, all the goblins except the captives have escaped.Now they are waiting for Zhao Zhanqi and Xu Zheng to negotiate with Emperor Dafan after cleaning up the remaining deserters and remnants.

Everything has not yet been settled, so Li Jianyu and others did not reveal their whereabouts, and pretended to be ordinary businessmen on their way.The ice coffin was wrapped up by Hao Sheng and placed in the middle of the team.

Apart from Li Jianyu and Chongxi who went on this trip, Dan Xi, as the person who knows the secret arts best, also went with them, so that he could help at any time.And Xing Huan and Wan Yunliu also got on the horse and walked with the team in the name of protecting these few people who either don't know martial arts or are not strong in martial arts.

Now the battle between Daxi and Dagong can't be regarded as completely over, so although Feng Guqianli is worried that Chongxi wants to follow, but he has responsibilities and cannot leave.

In the woods, Li Jianyu rode at the head of the team, holding a map in his hand and muttering to himself.

Xiao Jiuer once said that Fenghuang Ridge is now one of the islands in the North Sea of ​​Dafan.And to get to the sea, you have to go through this forest.

"Jianyu, how is it?"

Wan Yunliu rode his horse to Li Jianyu's side and said, "Are you tired, do you want to rest for a while?"

Li Jianyu shook his head, lowered his head to ponder the complicated map carefully.

"We've been wandering in this forest for two days." Wan Yunliu handed the water bag to Li Jianyu and said, "The roads in this forest are very complicated, and we won't be able to get out for a while. Rest and rest, shall we?"

Li Jianyu stared blankly at the sheepskin water bag, paused and said, "Yes."

Li Jianyu drank a few sips, but Wan Yunliu's expression suddenly froze, and he put his hand on the hilt of his waist and said in a low voice, "Jianyu, don't leave my side later."

"what happened?"

Turning around, I saw that everyone in the team was on alert, standing in a formation without any trace, ready to meet the enemy.

Li Jianyu frowned slightly and looked around.

Presumably there was an ambush.

who is it?

Their trip was extremely secretive, it was impossible for Da Fan to know about it, could it be that the news leaked out?

Li Jianyu's eyes darkened, and a small cluster of flickering fire rose from his fingertips.
