Without practicing the Hehuan skill, the crazy leader has infinite charm
Chapter 72 Who could he be?
After a while, Gu Xiyan opened his eyes and pressed his palms hard against the stone wall.
Yao Jia only heard a muffled sound, and then the stone wall in front of him slowly moved to the side, revealing a dark passage.
Yao Jia looked at Gu Xiyan in surprise. She didn't expect that he could crack the mechanism so easily.
Gu Xiyan looked back at Yao Jia, nodded to her, indicating that Yao Jia should follow him, and then walked into the passage first.
Yao Jia followed behind him, and couldn't help but become even more curious about Gu Xiyan.
The passage was not long and soon reached the end. Yao Jia saw a wooden door in front of her. There were exquisite patterns carved on the door and it did not look like an ordinary door.
Gu Xiyan took two steps forward and pushed open the door.
Yao Jia's eyebrows twitched. How could she have guessed wrong again!
The secret room was dark. Yao Jia took out the tinder that she had prepared in advance and lit it. She saw all kinds of gold, silver and jewelry piled up on one side of the room.
On the other side of the wall are bookcases, with neatly arranged books in an orderly manner.
Just as Yao Jia was about to walk in, she was stopped by Gu Xiyan, who shook his head at her and pointed at the wall.
Yao Jia looked at the walls around her and found that they were covered with all kinds of traps.
Yao Jia stepped back and said to Gu Xiyan, "Go ahead! Didn't you say you are good at these? I'll leave it to you."
Gu Xiyan's body stiffened instantly when he heard that, and he turned around to look at Yao Jia.
Seeing that he didn't move, Yao Jia thought he was studying the movements of the mechanisms again, so she crossed her arms and waited on the side.
Gu Xiyan really did not disappoint Yao Jia. After a moment, he pulled her to avoid the mechanism and came to the wall of books.
The two began to look for the account books in different compartments. Gu Xiyan had already found the account book and started flipping through it.
At this moment, there was a sudden movement outside the door.
Yao Jia's heart tightened, wondering if Jin Mantang had discovered them.
He grabbed Gu Xiyan, who was looking through the account book, and hid behind a treasure chest.
Suddenly, a man in black came in along the direction they had just walked, shouting "Jia Jia" while looking around.
It turned out to be Gu Xiyan’s voice!
For a moment, Yao Jia's hair stood on end. The person outside was Gu Xiyan, so who was the person next to her?
As Yao Jia was thinking about this, she had already reached out to pull the face scarf of the man in black beside her.
The man in black seemed to have anticipated her move and dodged it skillfully.
At this time, Gu Xiyan also noticed the movement here and flashed over here.
Yao Jia immediately said to Gu Xiyan: "Quickly grab the account book from him."
Gu Xiyan was stunned, but when he saw Yao Jia's nervous expression, he immediately realized that something was wrong.
He moved and pounced on the man in black like a cheetah.
The man in black didn't expect Gu Xiyan to attack suddenly, and was caught off guard and could only fight back hastily. However, Gu Xiyan was agile and quickly snatched the account book from his hand.
Yao Jia breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this, but then became nervous again because the man in black had no intention of leaving and instead was moving closer to them.
Gu Xiyan handed the account book to Yao Jia and asked her to hide it first, then he stood in front of Yao Jia and faced the man in black.
"Who are you?" Gu Xiyan asked in a deep voice.
The man in black did not answer, but just stared at Yao Jia behind him, his eyes full of tension and worry.
He deliberately changed his voice and reminded, "Don't move!"
Yao Jia then remembered that there were mechanisms in the secret room. If they walked around casually, they might touch something and everyone would be finished.
He immediately stopped and didn't dare to move around.
Suddenly, on the distant Jewelry Mountain, a large, shining gold ingot rolled down from a great height and hit a mechanism squarely.
Several arrows shot out from the wall instantly.
The three of them dodged in a hurry and saw an arrow about to hit Yao Jia.
Upon seeing this, the man in black immediately rushed to Yao Jia and raised his hands to protect her in his arms.
"Uh--"
A muffled groan came from above my head.
Yao Jia looked up and found that the arrow had pierced through the black-clothed man's left shoulder.
Gu Xiyan took advantage of the pause in the rain of arrows and quickly flew up to close the mechanism on the wall.
"How are you?" Yao Jia asked the man in black nervously.
The man in black shook his head to indicate that he was fine.
Yao Jia looked at him with complicated eyes. He gave her a familiar feeling, but she just couldn't remember who he was, and why he wanted to protect her?
Just as he was in a daze, Gu Xiyan reminded him, "It is not advisable to stay here for long. Once the mechanism is triggered, people outside will know about it soon."
The three of them immediately left the secret room and came out from the rockery one after another.
As soon as they came out, they saw a team of guards from the prefectural government approaching this side. Fortunately, the three of them were wearing night clothes. Yao Jia and Gu Xiyan protected the men in black on the left and right and left.
When they reached a safe place, Yao Jia saw that the man in black was breathing rapidly and his forehead was covered with beads of sweat. It was obvious that he was seriously injured. She wanted to check the man's wound, but he blocked her with his hand.
Yao Jia was not angry, she just said softly: "Don't get me wrong, I just want to help you check your wound, why don't you come back with me, my friend is a skilled doctor, he will definitely not let you have any root cause of the disease."
The man in black covered his chest and took a step back. "No need. Let's say goodbye now."
After saying that, he flew away.
Gu Xiyan looked at the man's back as he left and said angrily, "How could this person be so ungrateful!"
"That's enough!" Yao Jia pulled off the black cloth covering her face, "She just saved me."
Yao Jia looked at the direction the man left. Who was he? However, judging from his performance today, he was not only familiar with the Qimen formation, but also had a thorough study of the mechanisms and hidden weapons.
Fortunately, she was a friend and not an enemy, otherwise she would never come back today.
Thinking of this, Yao Jia glared at Gu Xiyan, "You set the time, why are you here so late?"
Hearing this, Gu Xiyan scratched his head and said, "I have some difficult things to deal with at home, so I can't get away for the moment. I'm late now."
“You are so reliable!”
Yao Jia stepped forward. She really didn't want to pay attention to this bastard. She originally thought that he had changed his nature, but it turned out that she had recognized the wrong person. He deserved to have his internal energy sucked away by her in his previous life.
"Oh! Jiajia...Jiajia..."
Gu Xiyan caught up with her in two steps, grabbed Yao Jia, and put his arms around her slender waist, coaxing her with a mouth soaked in honey: "I'm sorry! Can you forgive me? Jia Jia is a kind-hearted person with a beautiful face and a broad mind. She will definitely not hold it against me, right?"
Looking at Yao Jia who remained unmoved, Gu Xiyan cried out in his heart, why did General Qu choose to come back from outside the Great Wall today? If he wasn't so happy to see him, he wouldn't be late. If he wasn't late, Yao Jia wouldn't be angry.
Seeing that Yao Jia was not buying it, Gu Xiyan had to tell the truth: "General Qu Muqu came to my house, and I couldn't leave for the moment, so I came late. It's my fault. Please forgive me, okay, Jia Jia..."
General Xiaoyong Qu Mu! I didn't expect him to come back from outside the Great Wall and go to Gu Xiyan's house!
Yao Jia was full of doubts. Just when she was about to ask what the relationship between Gu Xiyan and Qu Mu was, she heard him ask, "Why didn't Jia Jia wait for me to come over and went in with someone she didn't know?"
Yao Jia was choked by his question. She thought that person was Gu Xiyan, so she followed him in.
Yao Jia suddenly realized that the man seemed to know her and had been protecting her all the way, and his voice was obviously falsetto.
But who is it?
She slapped the arms around her and said, "Don't put your hands on me."
Gu Xiyan covered his aching arm and looked at Yao Jia with an extremely innocent expression, "Jia Jia, I just helped you get the account book from that person. I just wanted to hug you for a reward, but you didn't even want to."
Yao Jia sneered. If he wants to be a hooligan, then he should be a hooligan. Why is he asking for rewards under the pretext of being righteous? He really has no shame at all!
He was about to leave with the account book, but was stopped by Gu Xiyan.
Yao Jia glared at him unhappily, "A good dog should not be in the right place, get out of the way quickly..."
Gu Xiyan started to act like a spoiled child again, holding Yao Jia tightly and refusing to let go. In order to make Yao Jia happy, he even imitated the barking of a dog.
