Chapter 200 Leaving
The second day soon arrived.
Shen Peiqing got up early to prepare his things for going into the water.
Rong Su naturally helped him prepare.
Once they leave this time, they may never come back to this secret palace again.
However, after living here for so long, Rong Su seemed to have developed a little nostalgia for this place unconsciously.
Looking here, from the dim vision that she was not used to at first, now she seems to feel that such a vision gives her a sense of comfort.
Rong Su came to the back of the courtyard and looked at the small piece of black field. It was still black, but there were traces of it being touched.
She squatted down, took a look, and reached out to poke the soil on the ground.
"What a pity! If you grow up later, I won't be able to see you anymore."
After thinking for a moment, she murmured helplessly, as if to justify herself: "But the premise is that you can all sprout without my watering. But even if it grows, I won't be able to see it. Haha."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Peiqing's voice came from behind him.
"No. It won't be long before I let you see them again."
Upon hearing this, Rong Su stood up, looked at him, and said in disbelief, "The entrance to this secret palace has been sealed since we entered. Where else can we get in except from the bottom of the pool? I don't want to come in through the pool."
Shen Peiqing gently touched her nose with his finger, and she couldn't help but glance at him, causing him to purse his lips and smile.
"I'll order someone to renovate this place."
Seeing that he was full of confidence, Rong Su didn't want to say anything unlucky, because many things are changeable, no one can predict what will happen in the future, and the most important thing is to live well in the present.
Afterwards, Rong Su watered Hei Tian again, and then she went to the pond with Shen Peiqing.
Shen Peiqing saw the time and walked into the pool first, then told her: "Follow me, and take the night pearl."
Rong Su glanced at the night pearl in her hand, which was glowing faintly.
"it is good."
It was only when she chatted with Shen Peiqing last night that she found out that the night pearl in his hand was what he used to light up during the days when he went into the water.
He picked these off the stone wall.
Not to mention, when she went under the water, the light emitted by this night pearl was enough to illuminate the area within ten feet around her.
Following Shen Peiqing, they swam together for a while and finally arrived at the entrance of the secret passage dug by Shen Peiqing.
Upon seeing it, Rong Su was shocked. The entrance to the secret passage was very large and could accommodate at least three people in and out.
Seeing this, and looking at Shen Peiqing's back, she felt even more distressed for him.
He wanted to take Shen Xuan away with him, so he dug such a large pit. Even after Shen Xuan passed away, he never changed his mind.
Although Shen Xuan once gave him the position of crown prince, he seemed to be partial to Shen Fengyu. Even when Shen Fengyu framed him, Shen Xuan knew about it but still allowed Shen Fengyu to hurt him.
Shen Peiqing should have hated it, but he didn't.
Deep down in his heart, Shen Peiqing still misses Shen Xuan and still loves his biological father.
I kept swimming along the secret passage, which was even darker than the pool I had just entered.
The area that the night pearl can illuminate is also shrinking.
If Shen Peiqing hadn't taught her how to hold her breath underwater some time ago, she would have suffered from oxygen deprivation long ago.
I swam for about a quarter of an hour.
Finally, I saw the light shining down from above.
When Rong Su finally came out of the water, she felt like she was reborn and almost burst into tears.
Excited, she immediately looked around to look for Shen Peiqing, and saw that Shen Peiqing had also surfaced and swam to her side.
"We have to leave quickly. This is the East Water Lake behind the Imperial Palace Garden."
Upon hearing this, Rong Su suddenly became nervous. She nodded and followed Shen Peiqing to swim to the side. They swam under the stone bridge, then followed a river channel to a backyard. Seeing that there was no one around, they dared to go ashore.
As soon as I got ashore, I heard footsteps of someone walking very close.
In a hurry, Shen Peiqing grabbed her hand and ran towards a palace.
After a while, they hid inside.
I thought I could take a breath after avoiding those people, but I didn't expect to hear the imperial guards patrolling outside.
And there are a lot of people patrolling.
Rong Su couldn't help but notice this, and Shen Peiqing also thought deeply about it.
"Normally, there wouldn't be so many Imperial Guards patrolling."
Hearing what he said, she immediately felt that something must have happened.
Shen Peiqing thought for a moment, looked at her and said, "Let's go. Let's leave the palace first."
"Okay." Rong Su nodded without hesitation, and followed Shen Peiqing to use light skills to avoid several layers of imperial guards patrolling the palace. It took almost an incense stick of time to leave.
Afterwards, Shen Peiqing took Rong Su to wander around several streets and alleys in the northern capital city which was under curfew.
Finally, they stopped in front of an old courtyard far away from the imperial palace.
Shen Peiqing looked around cautiously, and only after confirming that there was no one around did he take Rong Su over the wall and go in.
As soon as he landed, three arrows shot out from inside the house.
Shen Peiqing moved quickly. While pulling Rong Su to dodge, he caught all the arrows with one hand.
After a series of actions, Xiao Hei walked out of the house, his face full of surprise, joy, and a little jealous.
"Master! Miss Rong!"
Shen Peiqing slapped the arrow in his hand on the stone table and nodded to Xiao Hei: "Come into the house first."
Xiao Hei also reacted quickly, immediately stopped crying, and took her and Shen Peiqing into the house.
After entering, he went to serve tea without saying a word, then closed the door. His eyes reddened again, and he was at a loss yet also surprised. "Master! You are finally back. Do you know how scared I was? You were really in danger. After you entered the dungeon that day, you never came out again. Moreover, the Second Prince ordered the entire dungeon to be burned down. I almost fainted!"
Even though what Xiao Hei said was very exaggerated, Rong Su still got the key point.
"You said Shen Fengyu burned the dungeon?"
Xiao Hei looked at Rong Su and angrily echoed her words: "Yes! He wanted to use this to force you, young lady, to come out of the dungeon! But he didn't expect that you, my master, were also in there."
Shen Fengyu is really crazy. Doesn't he know that by doing this, he is tantamount to patricide?
Realizing that Shen Fengyu was truly a conscienceless beast, Rong Su only felt more and more disgusted with him.
Shen Peiqing, who had been silent the entire time, finally spoke slowly: "How long has it been?"
Xiao Hei understood what Shen Peiqing was asking and quickly replied, "A whole month has passed."
Rong Su was surprised. She had calculated the time using her homemade hourglass but it was still insufficient. It turned out that they had spent a whole month in that secret palace.
"Condition."
Xiao Hei thought for a moment and told the truth: "After the Second Prince failed to force Miss Rong out of the dungeon, he concluded that Miss Rong had died in the dungeon. Later, he began to incite some ministers in the court. That is."
Suddenly Xiao Hei stopped talking and looked at Rong Su from time to time, as if he wanted to say something but stopped himself.
Seeing this, Rong Su suddenly felt that something was related to her, so she said to Xiao Hei, "Just tell me what you have to say. I'm mentally prepared."
Xiao Hei looked at Shen Peiqing again. Shen Peiqing saw it and nodded: "Speak."
Xiao Hei then began to speak, "The Zhongdu envoy Wu Youyuan was suddenly killed, then word spread that Miss Rong wasn't a true Heavenly Phoenix Girl at all. Then, another Heavenly Phoenix Girl suddenly appeared in a small town in Zhongzhou. She was discovered by the Second Prince and brought back to Beizhou."
Hearing this news, Rong Su was slightly surprised.
She knew that Shen Fengyu suspected her and would definitely not trust her anymore, so he would take action. However, she did not expect that he would kill Wu Youyuan and then make up such a rumor.
Thinking of something, Rong Su looked at Xiao Hei and asked, "Where is Wuxuzi? Where did he go? I disappeared. Doesn't he question the Tianfeng girl that Shen Fengyu brought back? And Li Sheng?"
Xiao Hei sighed, "Wuxuzi disappeared not long after you, Miss Rong. He also disappeared. No one knows where he is now. The Emperor of Zhongzhou doesn't seem to care who becomes the Sky Phoenix Girl. As long as the Blood Stone can recognize him, it can appease the people. So he doesn't care."
"The blood stone actually recognized that woman?" Rong Su was a little surprised by this, or was the blood stone fake?
All kinds of doubts suddenly arose, catching her off guard.
Suddenly, someone gently held her hand. She turned around and saw that it was Shen Peiqing. He looked at her with a soothing look, which stabilized her somewhat confused mood.
"Also. A few days ago, the second prince announced the death of His Majesty and the day he would ascend the throne. Then, in order to highlight his merits, he soon ordered North Continent and Central Continent to formally unite and attack East Continent." After Xiao Hei finished speaking, a heavy atmosphere filled the entire space.
When Rong Su heard this, she couldn't hold back and started cursing, "Shen Fengyu is such a lunatic! His actions have absolutely no regard for the people at all!"
Xiao Hei also agreed and chimed in, "That's right! Ever since His Majesty fell ill and was unable to manage the government, the court has been in chaos since he handed it over to him. Then the entire Northern Continent became chaotic. Taxes were heavy, conscriptions were frequent, and many corrupt officials began to take advantage of the situation. Now the people of Northern Continent are in dire straits and their lives are in dire straits."
As he spoke, Xiao Hei knelt down before Shen Peiqing, clasped his hands together, and said solemnly in a pleading tone, "Master, please rise up in rebellion. As the eldest prince of Beizhou, you are the most qualified person to do this. For the sake of Beizhou, please save these suffering people!"
Rong Su looked at Shen Peiqing, who had no expression on his face. What was he thinking about at the moment? Was he thinking about the people of Beizhou, or how to take revenge on Shen Fengyu, or was he thinking about something else?
No matter what he decided, she had only one goal, which was to help him take over the whole world.
Before Shen Peiqing could say anything, the door suddenly creaked open. He became cautious and saw two people standing at the door.
One is wood, and the other is stone that has not been seen for a long time.
When they saw Shen Peiqing and Rong Su, they were slightly stunned.
Then the four people's eyes met, and in just a moment, tears filled the eyes of Wood and Stone at the same time, and they all knelt down to Shen Peiqing.
"master!"
Obviously, they also thought, like Xiao Hei, that Shen Peiqing died in the dungeon, so they had such expressions.
Afterwards, the four of them, the master and his servants, reminisced about the past and discussed matters in the study.
Rong Su went to a guest room, found some paper and pen, and blew a whistle to call Fat Head.
After not seeing her for a long time, Fat Head didn’t seem to recognize her and kept wandering around the window.
As if confirming something.
The little guy was willing to stand in her palm only after she took out his favorite white steamed bun.
Rong Su gently stroked its feathers with her hand, smiled faintly and said, "Fathead. You seem to have lost weight. Do I have to call you Thinhead from now on? But it doesn't sound very nice. Maybe Aku forgot to feed you. Don't worry, I will scold him for you."
As she said this, she tied the letter to Fatty's feet. Then it rubbed the back of her hand, spread its wings, flew out of the window, and flew around outside before leaving, looking as if it was reluctant to leave.
Rong Su was moved by what she saw, and at the same time felt that she had to find time to go back to Bai Tiaomen.
But some things often happen suddenly.
Just when Rong Sudu and Shen Peiqing agreed to set off back to Bai Tiaomen first, some strange conditions suddenly occurred on the reader.
That night, she was about to rest.
A voice completely different from the reader sounded in her mind.
{You are the heroine of this world}
{I know you can hear me}
After hearing the sound, Rong Su suddenly looked around vigilantly, but after a closer look, he didn't see anyone at all.
"Who are you? Why are you playing tricks on me? Come out now!"
{I am now fighting for time to communicate with you, Rongsu, I will give you a chance, contract with me, I can help you do everything you want.}
The voice did not answer her question, but tempted her with a huge benefit point. Rong Su did not feel bewitched, but instead became extremely alert.
Staring into the air, Rong Su suddenly thought of a possibility. She narrowed her eyes and asked thoughtfully, "Are you the same thing as the reader?"
The other party was silent for a while.
But from this point of view, Rong Su can be completely certain that the owner of this voice must be something like a reader.
{Contract with me. You are the luckiest person in the world. I can use my abilities to help you do anything you want.}
{Give up that so-called reader, it can't satisfy your ambitions at all}
Rong Sumeng seemed to have grasped something, and his tone became solemn and serious: "You are Rong Yingxin's system!"
Even though it was suddenly exposed, the system didn't seem to panic and even praised her calmly.
{You are indeed the world's chosen one. I should have chosen you from the beginning instead of that useless alien.}
Because of what she learned from Xiao Hei a few days ago, Rong Su couldn't help but feel a little alert: "Is Rong Yingxin still alive?"
The system seemed very surprised and felt that Rong Su was extremely perceptive.
She no longer poses any threat to you. The entire world story has undergone tremendous changes, and the enemies you face have changed. So, make a contract with me, and I can help you. I'm much better than your reader who constantly demands things from you without giving anything in return. Complete quests here, and you can redeem items of different levels.
Exchange props.
No wonder Rong Yingxin has always been so confident. This system must have helped her a lot behind the scenes.
No matter how to help her become the Phoenix Girl, or how to gain the trust of Li Sheng and hide it from the people of Zhongzhou.
The system must have come to her suddenly because something had happened, and it kept emphasizing the need to sign a contract with her.
Perhaps because Rong Su hadn't replied, the system began to get anxious.
It also threw out something extremely shocking.
{In the near future, you will encounter a fatal disaster, and I can help you get through it}
"What did you say?"
