Late at night, dark clouds crushed a bright moon, and the surroundings were silent.

Jiang Zuiyao was lying alone on the couch, constantly thinking about the bunch of keys in her mind. Although the bunch of keys had been taken back by Zong Yuan, its appearance was firmly remembered in Jiang Zuiyao's heart.

At this moment, she suddenly heard a strange noise coming from outside. Before Jiang Zuiyao could distinguish it, she heard a scream outside the door. She quickly looked in the direction of the door and found two figures outside the door falling to the ground with blood spurting out.

On the paper window, red blood sparkled.

Jiang Zuiyao suddenly took a breath of cold air, who is it?

There was a loud "clang", the door was pushed open forcefully, the moonlight poured in, and a black shadow suddenly appeared.

Jiang Zuiyao stood up suddenly and looked at the door warily, not knowing who was coming.

Suddenly, a man in black was seen running in, holding a blood-red sword in his hand. He looked around until his eyes fell on Jiang Zuiyao, and he stopped.

Those cold and terrifying eyes felt familiar to Jiang Zuiyao.

Jiang Zuiyao was suddenly startled when the man in black pulled off his black mask.

It's Shao Ziqing!

How could it be him?

Shao Ziqing ran over quickly, grabbed Jiang Zuiyao's hand and ran out. Jiang Zuiyao, who didn't know the situation, was stunned. What was Shao Ziqing doing?

She was a little scared, afraid that Shao Ziqing would harm her again, so she struggled to break free: "Let me go! Let me go!"

Shao Ziqing roared: "I'm here to save you!"

??

Jiang Zuiyao almost wondered if she had heard wrongly and Shao Ziqing came to save her?

It was obviously Shao Ziqing who handed her over to the Taixuan clan, why would he come to rescue her?

Shao Ziqing grabbed Jiang Zuiyao's arm tightly and was dragged out by her like that. She felt a little confused for a moment. What did he mean?

Along the way, Jiang Zuiyao unexpectedly discovered that no one was stopping her, which made her feel strange. Since she had fallen into the hands of the Taixuan Clan, the Taixuan Clan would definitely send people to watch her every move. How could she be so easily killed?

Did you escape?

Until he ran into a bamboo forest, Jiang Zuiyao knew this place very well. This seemed to be the way he came.

Chi Rong and his men had been waiting there for a long time. Their weapons were stained with blood, and they seemed to have killed people before.

Shao Ziqing ran to Chi Rong and asked, "Is anyone alive?"

Chi Rong shook his head: "According to the young master's instructions, everyone who is not ours will be killed."

Shao Ziqing nodded assuredly: "Very good, let the brothers continue to stay in the Taixuan clan to visit."

Only then did Jiang Zuiyao realize that it turned out that Shao Ziqing was an informant in the Taixuan clan, so no wonder he was able to travel unimpeded.

If you think about it carefully, Shao Ziqing was once a member of the Taixuan Clan. Now he seems to be working against the Taixuan Clan, but there are people from him in the Taixuan Clan. Why?

It seems that there is something Jiang Zuiyao doesn't know about.

Jiang Zuiyao did not ask about this matter, but asked in confusion: "Why did you save me?"

Shao Ziqing glanced at Jiang Zuiyao coldly, and said in a cold tone: "I found out your secret."

This made Jiang Zuiyao feel even more incredible. What secret did she have? Why didn't she know it?

Immediately, Shao Ziqing said again: "When I get the key, you will be of great use to me."

Jiang Zuiyao clenched her fists angrily, she knew how could Shao Ziqing be kind enough to save her, Shao Ziqing was only doing it for his own selfish desires.

Jiang Zuiyao still doesn't know what door that key can open, but she guesses that it must be a very important place.

The Queen Mother once had this key, but later she lost it and fell into the hands of the Taixuan clan. After that, Qin Nanxian brought her to Beizhuang just for this key. In the end, Shao Ziqing also wanted this key.

What is it about this place that makes so many people desperately fight for it?

Facing Shao Ziqing's rescue, Jiang Zuiyao knew that he also had bad intentions. She just jumped from the abyss of the Taixuan clan into Shao Ziqing's abyss, and she was not really saved.

But having said that, if she follows Shao Ziqing, at least she still has a glimmer of hope. If she is in the Taixuan clan, then she really can't escape.

It's always a disaster, so it's better to go with Shao Ziqing first.

Shao Ziqing said to Chi Rong at this moment: "The goal for so many of us is too big, and we don't know what lies ahead. We are divided into three groups, one group walks on land, one group walks on bamboo, and another group swims across the lake.

Finally meet at the end point.”

Although Shao Ziqing's method is feasible, everything ahead is unknown. If something unexpected happens, everyone will be in trouble. Moving forward in batches is not only convenient for each other to take care of each other, but also not easy to be discovered.

Shao Ziqing then ordered: "Finally, gather at the end point and wait for half an hour at most. If you haven't arrived yet, you won't wait. Leave a mark when you leave. Those who are late will explore the route by themselves. Don't delay until dawn at the latest. Everyone listens."

do you understand?"

Everyone responded and divided into three teams according to their heads.

Jiang Zuiyao and Shao Ziqing were together, plus three guards. Zhong Pu led a team of his own, and the remaining people formed a team.

After discussion, Jiang Zuiyao did not know Kung Fu, but she knew the nature of water, so she decided to take the water route.

The three teams left according to their respective routes, and Jiang Zuiyao and Shao Ziqing entered the water.

The water was cold at night and the lake was biting with ice. Jiang Zuiyao shivered as soon as she entered the water, but she endured it and swam forward after Shao Ziqing.

They stick to the shore so that they can get ashore in time if something goes wrong.

After swimming for a long time, Jiang Zuiyao began to lose her strength. Shao Ziqing also saw that Jiang Zuiyao was a little tired, but she continued to swim in the water without saying a word that she was tired or tired.

How could such a young girl endure such hardship?

Shao Ziqing saw it but didn't say anything because he could see that Jiang Zuiyao was also working hard.

Shao Ziqing also slowed down and seemed to be accommodating Jiang Zuiyao.

After swimming for a long time, Jiang Zuiyao finally saw the end of the bamboo forest, and she seemed to see hope.

Shao Ziqing stopped and encouraged her: "We're still not far away, so keep at it."

Jiang Zuiyao didn't appreciate it and gave him a disdainful look, but she was indeed a little tired. The water was too cold and her calves were starting to feel numb, but she persisted and didn't say anything.

Just when they were about to reach the end, the guard in front suddenly screamed, making Jiang Zuiyao tremble in shock.

The guard following behind said hurriedly: "There is a poisonous snake in the water, run quickly!"

The two guards climbed onto the shore first.

Jiang Zuiyao also hurriedly crawled under the water, but she clearly saw many shadows under the water, like long lines.

That is the water venomous snake, which is very fast in the water. One bite will kill you.

Jiang Zuiyao tried her best to swim to the shore, but she was really tired and couldn't keep up for a while.

At this time, Shao Ziqing jumped out of the water and floated on the water with his light skills. He raised his hand and took Jiang Zuiyao's arm and took her away.

"thump!"

Jiang Zuiyao was dragged ashore by Shao Ziqing, and her body was rubbed on the ground, causing abrasions.

Jiang Zuiyao gritted her teeth and looked back into the water in fear. Those poisonous snakes were wandering on the shore.

Jiang Zuiyao was breathing heavily. The guard who was bitten just now was floating on the water and seemed to be dead.
