Chapter 111: Oh no, the War King has surrounded the outside
What Su Jixue was thinking of, her "parent" was obviously thinking of it too. The other party said in a bad tone: "We can't stay here anymore, we have to leave."
Zong Kui's arrow and knife wounds were now taking effect, especially the poison on the knife, which seemed to be taking effect. He could see black, "This prince can no longer escape."
"It's not safe here!" the man asserted.
"Other places may not be safe either." Zong Kui retorted, "If this were Nanqing, I would definitely make it impossible for the War King to escape."
Zong Kui leaned against the wall of the secret room and slid down to the ground, his aura suddenly becoming stronger. "Please contact the four elders in the suburbs of the capital for me. Ask them to enter the capital as envoys from Southern Qing and come to pick me up openly."
Otherwise, he can't get out.
No one knew better than Zong Kui how much the War King hated him.
"Zong Kui, you really are worthy of being the young master of the Zong family. You make decisions decisively at critical moments!" The man spoke with some praise for Zong Kui's decision.
"Ah!"
Zong Kui sneered, "If I didn't even have this kind of impulsive reaction, how could I have deceived your daughter in the first place?"
His words touched the pain points of the two people present at the same time.
The man couldn't help but snorted coldly, "That's because she was stupid, so she was killed by her own stupidity!"
squeak--
Su Jixue's nails made a harsh sound as they scratched the inner wall of the jar.
It's not because of stupidity that he died.
Listening to the two of them talking about her like this, she was really very touched!
Su Jixue knew clearly that they were not worthy, nor worth it. But her heart still ached tightly, and she didn't know if it was because she was holding her heart tightly in her hands.
The blood in the pool was thick and plentiful, all of which flowed out of Su Jixue's body.
Drop by drop, they gather into streams and condense into this jar of blood.
It soaked her soul and body, and also pricked her pain.
Su Jixue never thought that her first meeting with her parents would be like this.
It’s really... not surprising.
The ethereal soul body was full of cracks and swayed slightly, as if it would turn into pieces on the ground with just a light poke of the finger.
"Oh no, oh no! The War King has surrounded our Baihua Tower with his men!"
Suddenly, an anxious sound came from the copper pipe, as if someone rushed into the room with the copper pipe to give a tip-off.
"What?!" The person who had just had a conversation with the secret room was shocked.
"Prince Zhan and the people from Prince Zhan's Palace have surrounded our Baihua Tower!" the man repeated.
War King...
Su Jixue's ink-black eyes moved.
he came?
"Didn't the War King lead the Jingji Guards to chase the carriage?!" The person on the other end of the copper pipe was a little furious: "Why did they turn around and come to our Baihua Tower?"
"I don't know, but now all four gates of Baihua Tower are blocked by people from Prince Zhan's Mansion. What should we do now?" The person who reported the news was a little panicked.
"It's okay. The carriage stopped at the first street in Wenqingfang. The master took several routes to Hongxiuzhao and then came through the secret passage of Hongxiuzhao. It has nothing to do with our Baihualou." The leader on the copper pipe side seemed to calm down: "The War King must be desperate and trying all kinds of treatment!"
"But the War King only surrounded us and Hongxiuzhao. The War King went to Hongxiuzhao first, and will be at our Baihualou soon!" said the person who brought the news.
"You mean the War King is now using the Red Sleeves Move?!" The leader on the other end of the copper pipe couldn't help but get angry: "Why didn't you say so earlier!"
After he finished speaking, he turned directly to the copper tube and said, "Master, you'd better leave now. It might be difficult to leave when the War King arrives!"
There was silence in the secret room for a moment.
Zong Kui's voice was the first to ring out: "It's useless. It's all over now. Since you said this secret room has never been used, the War King shouldn't be able to find the entrance, right?"
The man seemed to think for a moment before he was sure: "He shouldn't be able to find this secret room."
"Then use stillness to control movement." Zong Kui was already sitting cross-legged at this time, and began to regulate his breathing to heal his injuries.
"Go and turn on the voice tube in the front hall. When the War King comes, you can meet him in the front hall!" The man seemed to have made a decision and gave orders to the other end of the copper tube.
"I obey your orders." The person on the other end of the copper tube replied.
The copper pipe suddenly became quiet.
Meanwhile, the secret room suddenly became silent.
In the extreme silence, the mouth of the jar above Su Jixue's head seemed to be tapped gently by something.
Crisp and hard.
But not heavy.
Su Jixue suddenly opened her eyes and looked through the darkness towards the sound. It was the sound of nails hitting the mouth of a jar.
The thumb and little finger cannot make such a sound, nor can the middle and ring fingers.
It should be the index finger.
The person has a nail on the index finger, so he must be a woman!
So, this person is her...
Mother?
The other person's index fingernail unconsciously tapped lightly on the mouth of the jar, and the tapping speed was consistent and intermittent, as if he was counting.
This is probably the closest distance Su Jixue has ever been to her "mother" in her life.
abruptly—
There was a sound of fists clashing outside, and Zong Kui groaned in pain.
The jar in which Su Jixue was located seemed to be suddenly taken in someone's hand, and she was almost scattered by the violent shaking.
"If you dare to do that again, I will smash this jar!" Zong Kui said coldly.
"Why should the Regent be angry? I'm just testing how much strength you have left." Su Jixue's "mother's" voice was still indistinguishable from male and female: "Don't be anxious."
Zong Kui snorted coldly: "Even if I die, I will let you be buried with me!"
Are they having an internal conflict?
Su Jixue raised her lips sarcastically. Yes, he could even harm his own daughter. It wouldn't be surprising if he could turn against the Regent of Nanqing at any time.
At this moment, the voice of the man just now suddenly came from the copper pipe outside, as if the King of War had arrived.
"Your Highness, Prince Zhan, our Baihua Tower is really just a place for high-ranking officials to have fun. We dare not harbor criminals!"
"Don't dare?" Mo Chuyi's sneer came from the copper tube: "How did the Hongxiuzhao tunnel lead to Baihua Tower? All the Hongxiuzhao people have confessed!"
In the secret room, the two men looked at each other and made peace temporarily.
"How is that possible? Hong Xiuzhao is Baihualou's sworn enemy!" The person in charge on the other end of the copper pipe immediately denied it. "Although our Baihualou is an illegal business, we still pay taxes. General Mo, you can't speak nonsense!"
"We'll know if you're just talking nonsense once we check!" Mo Chu didn't give in at all.
"But the distinguished guests in our building haven't woken up yet. If the generals bump into them, it will be difficult to resolve the situation!" The person in charge on the copper pipe side tried to mediate.
"Stupid!" Zong Kui, who was holding his breath and listening in the secret room, could not help but snort coldly: "The servants follow the masters indeed."
Su Jixue's "mother" did not refute, but seemed to be angry as well.
Sure enough, the cold voice of the War King rang out from the brass tube: "Distinguished guest? Do you honor me?"
There was silence all around.
Su Jixue could even feel the suffocation from the copper pipe. With a plop, the steward knelt heavily on the other side and said, "I said the wrong thing, but Your Highness, the King of War, please have mercy on me..."
Snapped!
The War King sat on his horse and swung the whip in his hand. Before the manager of Baihua Tower could finish his words, the whip wrapped around his neck and he was thrown to the ground.
"Catch him, he's right here."
Without any doubt or hesitation, the War King gave his judgment with great certainty.
