C573 Yue Lao Shrine (1/2)
”Naturally. We're all here. Furthermore, after entering this cave, even if you want to leave, the other party would probably not even give you the chance to do so. ” Mu Ru Yue looked at the wall at the side as she spoke coldly. With a flash, she stepped into the building. When Ling Xi saw Murong Yue walk over, she hurriedly chased after her, afraid that she would be thrown on the spot.
There was a winding path behind the building, but it wasn't very long. It was about 100 meters in radius. After a while, they arrived at the end of the path. There, they saw a door.
Yue Lao Shrine was written on the door.
Mu Ru Yue didn't hesitate and directly pushed open the gate to Yue Lao's shrine. What entered her eyes was Yue Lao's idol. On the side, there was also a tree with a pile of red strings hanging on the evergreen tree.
He was no different from the fervent Yue Lao Shrine from before.
If one wanted to say, it was likely that there was no one here. However, the old temple outside the city was burning with incense.
You know, last time, the queues were already very far away. As for this Yue Lao Shrine, it could only be located underground. It was also pitch black here, and the fire piston in Mu Ru Yue's hand was almost used up.
Ling Xi vigilantly surrounded Murong Yue, afraid that she would suddenly attack.
Before the fire piston was completely extinguished, Murong Yue extinguished the fire piston in her hand. She looked inside and said, ”Is this your way of treating your guest?”
No one spoke.
”You brought us here without even the slightest amount of respect, and even now, you still do not dare to meet anyone. You all are truly as cowardly as a mouse.” Mu Ru Yue said disdainfully.
As the sound of his voice faded, the lanterns within Yue Lao's shrine suddenly lit up.
”Since you have come, do not pretend to be mysterious.” Mu Ru Yue said impatiently. Following that, Murong Yue heard a burst of light laughter come from behind Yue Lao's statue in Yue Lao's shrine.
”Princess, be careful.” Ling Xi hurriedly stood in front of Murong Yue. One had to know that Mu Ru Yue's treasure map was the item she wanted. If she let him steal it, then everything would be in vain.
Mu Ru Yue naturally knew this, but she wasn't too worried. After all … Chen Qing had said he would help from the shadows, so he would never break his promise.
”What are you trying to do, Sir?” We have already come here as per your request, please come out for a look. If you don't come … And how do you get what you want? ”
Mu Ru Yue took out a box as she spoke. Inside the box was a copy of the treasure map.
The moment this box was taken out, the other person seemed to have thought of something. In this room, Mu Ru Yue could only hear the sound of footsteps. The lights of Yue Lao's shrine suddenly dimmed. At that moment, a person slowly walked out from behind Yue Lao's shrine.
After he walked out, the place became bright again.
The person who came was a man dressed in red clothes. He held a blue lantern in his hand, and his long hair was tied up. His slightly pale face was revealed just like that. This person was extremely good-looking. Her phoenix-like eyes were clear, but there was an unspeakable strangeness to them. Her red lips slightly curled up, looking somewhat eerie and cold.
However, Mu Ru Yue wasn't in the mood to appreciate it. She was completely shocked.
Because this person was 80% similar to the Crown Prince Feng Qing. But one thing was certain, this person was definitely not Feng Qing because his temperament was completely different.
This appearance … Could it be a disguise? Mu Ru Yue was slightly suspicious.
However, in this short period of time, he had already walked to a position about one meter away from Mu Ru Yue. He didn't step forward nor say anything. He just stretched out his hand and looked at Mu Ru Yue.
They were waiting for her to hand over the treasure map.
”Since you want my treasure map, shouldn't you hand over the person I want first?” Mu Ru Yue looked at him and asked. The man thought for a moment, then nodded. Then, he walked behind the statue and dragged Uncle Zhang out.
At this moment, Uncle Zhang's clothes were somewhat tattered, and there were quite a few scars on his face. It was obvious that he had suffered a lot before.
”Grandpa …” Tears welled up in Ling Xi's eyes. If it wasn't for Murong Yue stopping her, she would have already rushed over by now.
Mu Ru Yue's heart was also filled with anger as she thought that her opponent had actually attacked Uncle Zhang.
