Yue Rong exclaimed, and Xie Yan immediately strode out of the imperial guards.

He quickly walked to Gu Ning: "See the county lord."

The imperial guards behind him had not yet figured out why Xie Yan was so attentive. After seeing the bright face, they all knelt down and bowed.

Even they knew the willfulness of Changning County Lord.

Gu Ning looked at the tiger's corpse on the ground and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.

"Why are you here?"

She had already heard the tiger roar, and she rushed over with Chunyu. She thought she could lead people to rescue them when Yan Yu and Gu Qingqiu fell off the cliff and then get the map from the cliff.

But unexpectedly, Xie Yan appeared here one step ahead of her.

Oh no! Could it be that she had found the wrong place, right? But she followed the tiger to track Gu Qingqiu's traces all the way!

Under the exquisite makeup, Gu Ning's face turned pale.

"The subordinates led their troops to patrol the surroundings. When they saw a tiger hurting people, they shot him to death." Xie Yan said lightly, "This place is dangerous, so the subordinates escorted the county lord back to the camp."

When others saw Xie Yan's attitude towards Gu Ning, they became worried about him.

I am afraid that I will be hated by the Changning County Lord in this way.

Just as this thought passed through their minds, Gu Ning's little face turned cold, pointed at Xie Yan, and said unhappy: "Come with me!"

It's bad...

Under the eyes of everyone, Gu Ning was talking to Xie Yan with a cruel look on his face.

Xie Yan turned her back to them. They could not see Xie Yan's face, but from Gu Ning's expression, they knew that Xie Yan's situation was worrying.

Gu Ning spoke up until he was sure that they could not hear their conversation with Xie Yan.

"Where is Gu Qingqiu?"

"It fell down."

Xie Yan's answer was very concise. He had the opportunity to save Gu Qingqiu. Since Gu Ning didn't like Gu Qingqiu, he didn't take action.

However, after hearing the news, Gu Ning blurted out in one sentence: "Hurry! Come and go to the cliff to save her!"

A hint of doubt appeared in Xie Yan's cold eyes: "Save Gu Qingqiu?"

Gu Ning said angrily: "Yes! I want to save her!"

But she was about to raise her foot and walk down the cliff, but Xie Yan grabbed her hand: "Why should I save her? You and her..."

"You don't understand." Gu Ning said earnestly, "I must save her."

Seeing that Xie Yan wanted to dissuade him, Gu Ning's beautiful peach blossom eyes widened and glared at Xie Yan fiercely: "Are you helping me?"

"Help." Xie Yan had no choice but to look at Gu Ning with phoenix eyes, "I will do whatever the county lord asked me to do."

It was clearly talking about serious matters, but Gu Ning blushed.

She coughed and arrogantly picked her chin at Xie Yan: "I want to go down too."

Before Xie Yan could speak, she added: "If you don't let me go down, I will ignore you."

When she said this, Xie Yan would naturally not refuse.

However, Xie Yan still tried the way down the mountain personally before letting Gu Ning go down together.

There is a scattered rock under the cliff. If a person falls from such a high place, he will basically die.

Chunyu's heartbeat slowed down when she saw the rocks: "Miss, can't..."

"No." Gu Ning snorted softly, "Her luck has always been good."

When everyone found Gu Qingqiu, she was lying unconscious on the only piece of grass among the rocks, with only scratches on her body.

Gu Qingqiu was lucky. There were several trees in the place where she fell, which relieved her downward force.

Seeing this, Chunyu understood what Gu Ning said about good luck.

When Gu Ning saw Gu Qingqiu, he just gave her a look and looked at other places on the cliff.

"Mr. County Lord, what are you looking for?" Chunyu saw her eyes rolling around and immediately noticed her intention.

Gu Ning coughed lightly and whispered in her ear: "I've seen it before."

A story book says that there are secret techniques under this cliff.”

Upon hearing this, Chunyu hesitated for a moment: "What did you say?"

"I said, I'm going to stroll around!" Gu Ning glanced at her angrily and wandered around him.

Chunyu's mind was still ringing Gu Ning's words just now. When she saw Gu Ning checking around carefully, she had to believe that Gu Ning was really looking for secret techniques.

After a while of silence, she still followed Gu Ning.

"Miss, since it is a secret technique, it will definitely not be placed in these places. Maybe it is in a cave." Chunyu persuaded seriously, "But I took a look, there were no caves nearby."

But the next moment, Gu Ning pointed to the mountain wall in front of him and said excitedly: "Chunyu, you are so smart! There is a hole!".z.br

Chunyu's mouth twitched for a moment. Unexpectedly, there was a cave covered by weeds beside the trees that stopped Gu Qingqiu.

"this……"

"Let's go in and have a look!" Gu Ning said excitedly, "Maybe there are really secret martial arts inside!"

The expectation and excitement in Gu Ning's eyes made Chunyu unable to say anything to refuse.

"Miss, there may not be anything here." Chunyu said, "Maybe it is the nest of some wild beast. You should wait outside. I will take someone to find you."

"Wait." Gu Ning stopped her, "I'm going in too."

But Chunyu stood at the door, and even though Gu Ning spoke, she didn't move a step outside.

Seeing this, Gu Ning rolled his eyes secretly.

Just now, she searched through all the places nearby where things might be hidden, but she couldn't find the box. The cave in front of her was very likely to have that box.

If it were just a map, it would be fine, but the book said that Gu Qingqiu also got a lot of jewelry from it, all of which were valuable. Xie Yan brought so many imperial guards, so they would never see it.

Gu Ning and Chunyu were confronting each other here, Xie Yan, who always followed her figure, soon arrived with the two of them.

When Gu Ning saw Xie Yan, his eyes rolled and he thought of a wonderful plan.

"Xie Yan, I'm going to take a look in this cave."

Gu Ning pointed to the cave and ordered Xie Yan as expected: "If Chunyu doesn't take me in, you can take me there."

"After reading the storybook, the county magistrate felt that there were secret techniques in it, so he must go in and look for it." Chunyu lowered her head: "But I think there might be danger inside, so the county magistrate should not go in."

"Don't worry if Xie Yan is here!" Gu Ning said, then looked at Xie Yan with a hurried look.

Xie Yan rubbed his eyebrows, but never expected that Gu Ning's reason was this.

However, when Xie Yan was staring at these clear and clear eyes, he could not speak even if he wanted to refuse.

In desperation, he could only make one request: "I'll go in and check first. If it's safe inside, I'll accompany the county lord in."

no!

Chunyu's mind is made of a big alarm.

The county lord cannot have any trouble, and Xie Yan cannot have any trouble!

She immediately said, "Let me and Yue Rong go in to investigate. If there is no danger, the county lord and Commander Xie will come in to search for treasure."

As she said that, she winked at Yue Rong not far away.

Yue Rong and Chunyu are both trustworthy people, and Gu Ning agreed without hesitation.

There will be no danger in the cave, otherwise how could Gu Qingqiu, who was so delicate and weak at the time, get to that box?

Yue Rong trotted over and heard Chunyu telling the story of the incident, and looked at Gu Ning with complicated eyes.

Sure enough, only the county lord has such wonderful ideas, and only the county lord can make the master indulge in this way.

He sighed in his heart, but walked in with Chunyu.

Gu Ning watched the two of them enter and nervously held his hands.

As expected, the box was about to fall into her hands!

map!

Because of excitement, Gu Ning's ears turned slightly red.

Suddenly, she felt a numbness coming from her ears.

"Satisfied?"

When she saw again, Xie Yan was pinching her earlobe and still rubbing her twice.

Gu Ning was shocked and even his face turned red.

She looked nervously at the imperial guards, throwing them on stretchers, and did not notice the turbulence between herself and Xie Yan.

"They won't find it."
