"It seems like someone is here." Fan Ye said softly and glanced outside, "It seems like a eunuch who came here to clean up."
Sima Xichen nodded slightly, "Let's hide first and see what they do."
"Yeah." Fan Ye also nodded lightly.
The two people jumped onto the crossbar. As soon as they landed safely, Fan Ye unconsciously held on to the crossbar, only to feel his hands slip. He trembled in fright and almost shouted.
Sima Xichen felt him trembling. He looked sideways and saw Fan Ye staring blankly at a quiet snake next to him. His body was a little stiff, and there seemed to be a exclamation in his throat. He immediately stretched out his hand to cover it.
Fan Ye shook his head, signaling him not to be nervous. With a flick, the snake fell to the ground silently.
"There are two snakes on the ground. Will they notice that outsiders have been here?" Fan Ye asked softly.
Sima Xichen nodded slightly. Just as he was about to speak, he seemed to smell a faint aroma that seemed to be there but not there. He paused. The aroma was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had smelled it. He looked at it.
There are no flowers or plants nearby. He grew up in the hands of people from the Baidu Sect. He is very familiar with poisons. This aroma is definitely not poison.
He glanced at Fan Ye with some confusion and said softly: "It may attract their attention. I'm afraid they are familiar with every snake here. However, they probably won't guess that someone is taking action. I just pointed it with the tip of my sword."
Just hit the snake seven inches and stun it with internal force. It will wake up in a while. They came in——"
Two men dressed as eunuchs walked in. They were pale and about forty years old. Judging from their appearance, they should be people with martial arts skills.
"Hey, why did two little snakes fall on the ground?" One of them had a shrill voice, which made Fan Ye feel extremely uncomfortable. The eunuch's voice always made him feel uncomfortable, and it made him feel very uncomfortable.
It's like tying up your neck.
The other voice sounded a little feminine and thin, but it sounded more tactful, "It doesn't look like outsiders have been here. These two little snakes probably fell down accidentally. Could it be that they were in the ice kiln these days?"
The ice has melted a little, so the temperature has risen, and these little snakes have woken up? We have to send people to the ice kiln to take a look. If the ice melts, I'm afraid it will disturb the beauty."
Fan Ye subconsciously leaned against Sima Xichen. Sima Xichen was slightly startled. He turned his head and saw Fan Ye listening impatiently to the eunuch's conversation below. He smiled slightly and thought to himself, this Fan Ye is really interesting.
A man in his forties actually looks like a girl.
Daughter's attitude?
Sima Xichen was startled, and just as he was about to think about it, he heard the two eunuchs below continuing to speak.
"Put these two little snakes back where they were."
"Okay, put it back where it was, and let's go find the Shuangxi sisters and go to the ice kiln together."
Fan Ye looked at Sima Xichen, who was also slightly startled, but saw one of the eunuchs pick up two snakes on the ground, put one back where Fan Ye was just now, and hold the other in his hand, jumping up vertically.
, ready to be placed on the beam.
The two people on the beam had nowhere to hide. They watched the eunuch jump up and were about to release the snake when they suddenly saw the two people on the beam and let out a high-pitched scream.
"Ah! - who are you?"
Fan Ye handed over the branch in his hand and landed on it with the man. The branch was pointed at the eunuch's throat. Although it was just an ordinary branch, the eunuch still felt a tightness in his throat. He
He knew clearly that if he moved, he would definitely die.
Just as the other eunuch was about to take action, Sima Xichen had already landed gently beside him, with the cold tip of the Qingfeng Sword pointing at his throat. His technique was exactly the same as Fan Ye's, but the difference was one left and one right.
Sima Xichen glanced at Fan Ye, but Fan Ye just stared at the eunuch indifferently and said: "To be honest, the voice you speak is really ugly. Every time I hear it, I feel sick in my heart. Can't you change it?"
Do you speak in a normal voice?"
Sima Xichen couldn't help but laugh. At this time, Fan Ye still had the intention to joke.
"Where is the ice kiln?" Sima Xichen quietly asked the eunuch pointed at by the tip of the sword.
"What ice kiln? We are just eunuchs who come here to clean the ice kiln. We don't know what the ice kiln is." The eunuch tried his best to say calmly. The man in front of him had outstanding skills. He did not dare to move casually, for fear that if he moved, he would definitely die.
"Hmph, not only do you speak unpleasantly, but your memory is also so bad that I hate it." Fan Ye handed the branch in his hand and said with a little force, "Don't make me impatient. Where is the ice kiln?"
The eunuch in front of him went limp, his mouth was bleeding, his face turned purple, and he fell to the ground. Sima Xichen sent the tip of his sword away, and the eunuch in front of him raised his head, opened his mouth, gasped, and could not speak.
Words come.
"I still want to commit suicide." Sima Xichen said coldly, "You underestimate me too much. Where is the ice kiln? Say——"
"If you don't say it's death, if you say it's death, I can't say it." The eunuch said with difficulty, his face became even paler. He suddenly whistled, sharp and harsh.
Sima Xichen was stunned, and secretly screamed something bad, and said in his mouth: "Brother Fan, be careful!"
Fan Ye was stunned for a moment, and suddenly heard the sound of a snake spitting, as if countless venomous snakes suddenly appeared from all directions and were approaching them.
Sima Xichen saw Fan Ye's expression change and was distracted. The eunuch in front of him died on the spot just like the previous eunuch.
When the poisonous snake approached Sima Xichen less than half a meter, it suddenly stopped. He was carrying Baidumen's poison repellent. The poisonous snake did not dare to approach him. He jumped in front of Fan Ye and stood with Fan Ye. The poisonous snake was standing next to him.
An encirclement formed around them, but they did not dare to attack forward. They only heard hisses and hisses, which made people feel uneasy.
"Where did so many venomous snakes come from?" Fan Ye said with lingering fear, "This Li Qiang is really annoying. If I see him, I will definitely not spare him."
Sima Xichen smiled softly, as if he wanted to say something, but he swallowed it hard.
"By the way, Lin Xichen, let me ask you, do all snakes hibernate when exposed to the cold?" Fan Ye asked softly. In fact, there was no one in the ancestral hall, but facing a room full of venomous snakes, he still couldn't help but whisper.
say.
Sima Xichen nodded.
"Then we only need to look where the snakes are still hibernating, which means that they are closest to the ice kiln, right?" Fan Ye asked softly, but his body was trembling slightly.
"Yes." Sima Xichen supported Fan Ye. The familiar aroma seemed to be closer, but it was just there. I wanted to smell it carefully, but I couldn't smell it. However, inadvertently, there was a faint smell.
