Chapter Thirty-Four A Lifeline

In front of Xiyi Palace, Nan Rongshu endured the pain in her waist and walked slowly here.

At this time, she was covering the wound on her waist with her right hand. Due to the tearing pain, large drops of sweat overflowed from her forehead, and her face became even paler.

"What do you mean?" Nan Rongshu looked up at Xiao Cheng and gritted her teeth.

Xiao Cheng stood in front of her, blinked slightly, then put on a false smile and said:

"Huh? What do you mean...Ah, you want to ask me why I let you come here by yourself, right? Hey, there are so many people coming and going in this palace, holding you makes you so conspicuous!"

Nan Rongshu was so angry at Xiao Cheng's words that she threw away the dead branch in her hand, glared at Xiao Cheng fiercely, and said:

"So you're in front, dragging me along with a branch so that you're not conspicuous?"

When a person who practices martial arts reaches the eighth level, he is already completely transformed. Regardless of his lifespan, the perception of his ears, nose, and eyes, and his body's ability to recover, there is already a huge gap between him and ordinary people.

Nan Rongshu looked at the serious injuries on his waist, but for people like them, they were not considered fatal. With medication and the body's own healing, it would take at most half a month to recover.

But even so, the sharp pain in my waist that felt like tearing was unbearable as I forced myself to walk all the way.

Xiao Cheng threw away the dead branches, clapped his hands, and said very naturally:

"Men and women do not have sex, I just abide by the etiquette!"

Nan Rongshu stared at Xiao Cheng and said with a sneer:

"Aren't you a eunuch? You don't count as a man!"

"Oh, okay, okay, don't worry about the past! Hurry up, it will be dawn if it gets later!" Xiao Cheng said with a careless look.

Nan Rongshu glared at Xiao Cheng with hatred again, then came to the gate of Xiyi Palace and knocked several times rhythmically.

Soon, subtle movements were heard behind the palace gate.

There was only a "squeak" sound, and the palace door opened a crack. A palace maid couldn't wait to poke her head out. When she saw clearly that it was Nan Rongshu, her eyes were full of joy that could not be concealed.

"My lord, you are finally back!"

Nan Rongshu covered the wound on her waist and said:

"Go in first!"

The palace maid quickly stepped aside and welcomed Nan Rongshu in.

Just as Xiao Cheng was about to follow him, he saw the palace maid looking at him with hesitation on her face.

"Let him in!" Nan Rongshu said without looking back.

When the palace maid heard this, she looked at Xiao Cheng warily and then got out of the way.

Xiao Cheng raised his eyebrows and walked in without any scruples.

As soon as he entered the Xiyi Palace, Xiao Cheng's perception was that dozens of eyes were focused on him, and Xiao Cheng vaguely heard the sound of a bow string being pulled.

This defense is even tighter than when he came a few days ago.

Nan Rongshu was seriously injured. Although the waiters in Xiyi Palace were well-trained, in order not to arouse suspicion inside and outside the palace, the people here were ordinary people who had never practiced internal strength and only trained in fighting skills.

Xiao Cheng didn't think that relying on these people, he could kill him quietly. He also felt that Nan Rongshu would not be so stupid that he couldn't help but take action at this time.

"Your guards here are much stronger than before. If I want to come here again, I'm afraid I will have to spend more time!" Xiao Cheng said calmly.

Nan Rongshu turned to look at him, raised her chin towards Xiao Cheng, and said coldly:

"Look over your shoulder!"

Xiao Cheng glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw a small flying insect lying on his left and right shoulders.

It was the same little flying insect that caused Xiao Cheng to be exposed and the two of them to fight, causing so many troubles.

"Ah, there are even more bugs! It seems that next time I won't even think about sneaking in!" Xiao Cheng couldn't help but laugh.

When she mentioned this, Nan Rongshu's face turned cold and she gritted her teeth and said:

"Do you think this thing was added because of you? The guards of Xiyi Palace are like this! I don't know what went wrong that day, but you were allowed to sneak into the side hall quietly. You are not relying on

I came in because of my own ability, but it just happened at the right time!"

When Xiao Cheng heard this, he remembered the bag Nan Rongshu was wearing. He was silent for a moment, nodded, and said in agreement:

"It's really not my thing!"

Well, it is true that I am not relying on my own ability, but the reverse poisonous milk of you, the unlucky guy.

"My lord! You are back!"

Xiao Chengxun looked up and saw another person speaking, "Nan Rongshu" wearing a gorgeous purple embroidered satin palace robe.

Judging from the voice, it should be the palace maid named Ling'er next to Nan Rongshu who disguised herself in disguise to create proof of presence and confuse others.

At this time, Xiao Cheng suddenly realized that the art of disguise was not a black technology. At least, in terms of body shape, Xiao Cheng could tell the difference between the two at a glance.

Nan Rongshu's figure is not something that Ling'er can just pretend by stuffing two steamed buns into her face.

On the other side, Nan Rongshu nodded to Linger and asked hurriedly:

"The Forbidden Army's search revealed no flaws, right?"

"Don't worry, my lord, the Imperial Army's search was quite careless, and we didn't reveal anything," Ling'er replied.

Seeing Nan Rongshu's pale face, Ling'er looked worried and asked hurriedly:

"Are you injured?"

"Well, the palace is now searching for injured people. I can't stay here anymore. I have to be sent out of the palace!" Nan Rongshu said weakly.

"Okay, I..." Ling'er was about to speak, but couldn't help but look at Xiao Cheng standing aside.

Nan Rongshu turned to look at Xiao Cheng and said:

"He went out with me."

Hearing this, Ling'er frowned slightly, but still didn't refute, just nodded silently.

This attitude made Xiao Cheng narrow his eyes slightly.

Something's wrong! It's too easy to agree!

Although it was his master who nodded, there is still something wrong with allowing outsiders to enter this secret passage that is the last trump card so easily.

"Come with me!" Nan Rongshu turned around and said hello, and with Ling'er's support, she slowly walked towards the side hall.

Xiao Cheng stood there, pondered for a while, then strode forward, following closely behind the two of them.

In the side hall, there is a mountain of messy debris. Tables, chairs, stools, boxes, boxes, boxes, countless debris are tangled together, making people's scalp numb.

But following the two of them, Xiao Cheng realized that these debris were even traps.

Ling'er seemed to grab a piece of debris casually and pulled it, then she heard the sound of a mechanism squeaking, and a large piece of debris was entangled and piled up, and it automatically moved away.

After several attempts, a secret passage diagonally downward was revealed.

"Your agency is really attentive!" Xiao Cheng praised.

Hearing this, Nan Rongshu smiled contemptuously and did not answer for some reason.

He followed the two of them into the secret passage and reached the end in less than half a cup of tea.

Ling'er knocked on the iron door at the end of the secret passage a few times, and someone opened the iron door.

As soon as the iron gate was opened, the noise of the crowd and the sound of vendors shouting were heard directly into Xiao Cheng's ears.

Xiao Cheng paused and looked up at the iron gate, his eyes sparkling.

I traveled through time, trembling, walking on thin ice, planning to be patient, and today I finally struggled to survive in this dead situation!
