Chapter 162

After leaving the North Hall, Cui Hengyue went to the Manjusri Pavilion in the South Hall.

"Dong dong——dong——"

Hearing the familiar knock on the door, Lin Jiang immediately put down the sledgehammer in his hand and ran to open the door.

"Yueyue, why are you here?"

Cui Hengyue did not answer his question, but ordered: "Qionghua, go and guard the door. If anyone approaches, alert me immediately."

After giving the instructions, he went straight into the room.

Lin Jiang glanced at Qionghua, turned around and followed: "Yueyue, what happened?"

Cui Hengyue sat down on the chair, took out a piece of paper and spread it on the table: "Uncle Lin, here are the pictures of two keys, can you type them out?"

Lin Jiang came over and took a closer look: "Well...these two keys are very similar, but they are different from ordinary keys. Their internal structure should not be simple."

After a pause, Lin Jiang turned around and asked: "Yueyue, do you have a more detailed structural diagram?"

"No." Cui Hengyue shook his head and asked: "If you rely on this pattern alone, can you make these two keys?"

Lin Jiang shook his head: "No."

Upon hearing these two words, the expression on Cui Hengyue's face instantly turned to disappointment.

Lin Jiang saw her expression and couldn't help but ask: "Yueyue, what do you want these two keys for?"

"Help Xie Yu unlock the chains."

"Thanks......"

Lin Jiang screamed, quickly covered his mouth and looked towards the door.

Qionghua looked over and gave him a safe gesture.

Lin Jiang breathed a sigh of relief, then lowered his voice: "Yueyue, why do you want to help Xie Yu open the chain?"

"Because he told me that as long as I help him leave the South Cave, he will send me down the mountain..." Cui Hengyue did not hide anything and told Lin Jiang the deal between her and Xie Yu in detail.

However, after hearing this, Lin Jiang firmly objected: "No, Yueyue, you can't do this. Xie Yu's words are not credible. You must not believe him."

Cui Hengyue was confused: "Why?"

Why?

Lin Jiang only felt that Cui Hengyue should not ask this question: "Xie Yu wants to kill the King of Chu. He has admitted this to you. As long as he leaves the South Cave, he will definitely assassinate the King of Chu...

"

"I know, but what's the problem?" Cui Hengyue was confused.

Lin Jiang was a little excited: "King Chu is our benefactor. Without King Chu, my wife, you, Qionghua and I would not have survived.

"If you help Xie Yu, wouldn't you be repaying kindness with hatred and allowing Xie Yu to assassinate the King of Chu?"

Faced with Lin Jiang's accusation, Cui Hengyue was not angry, but smiled: "You are just worrying blindly. Do you think King Chu has just stayed in the North Palace to recuperate for so many years?

"I tell you, although King Chu broke his leg, he still insisted on practicing martial arts every day.

"And the soldiers under him are practicing every day and never slack off.

"What's more, the South Palace and the North Palace are heavily guarded, and the King of Chu is surrounded by two masters, Mu Feng and Mu Shui. Even if Xie Yu can attack the North Palace, he can't get close to the King of Chu."

Seeing Lin Jiang's stunned look, Cui Hengyue couldn't help but patted his right arm: "Don't worry, I only agreed to this deal knowing that Xie Yu couldn't kill King Chu.

"Moreover, with Xie Yu keeping the King of Chu in check, there will be far fewer people chasing me, and I can return to Jinyang as soon as possible."

It's okay to retaliate without kindness.

Lin Jiang secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "In that case, Yueyue, you can take care of it yourself. If you have anything to do, just give us your orders. Qionghua and I will be on standby at any time."

"You don't need to worry about the rest, just these two keys..."

Cui Hengyue saw Lin Jiang frowning deeply, took the drawings on the table and folded them: "Forget it, you can't do it, so I can only go to Mu Huo."

"Are you going to..." Lin Jiang lowered his voice again and said in surprise: "Are you going to steal the key?"

Cui Hengyue nodded: "Well, other than that, there is no other way."

Lin Jiang was anxious: "General Mu Huo has great martial arts, and Huo Feng and Huo Tao around him are not ordinary people either. How can you defeat them by yourself?

"No, you can't go."

"I have to go." Cui Hengyue's eyes were firm: "Besides cooperating with Xie Yu, I have no other choice."

Back then, her mother-in-law took her and fled for her life in a hurry. She didn't have much money around her, and she gave all the money she had to the King of Chu.

And she grew up in Yunxuan Temple, and her food and clothing were all arranged by the King of Chu. Where did she get the one hundred thousand taels of gold?

There are also eight formations guarded by King Chu's elite. Even if she has extraordinary abilities, she cannot break through them alone.

Therefore, she had no choice but to cooperate with Xie Yu.

Lin Jiang fell silent.

Seeing Cui Hengyue about to leave again, Lin Jiang blurted out: "The North Palace is heavily guarded, and General Mu Huo is difficult to deal with. If you try to steal the key, even if you succeed, you will be discovered soon.

"How will you escape then?"

Cui Hengyue paused in his steps.

"I'm afraid you won't even be able to get out of the North Palace by then, so how can you help Xie Yu unlock the chains?"

Lin Jiang's words reminded Cui Hengyue.

She thought about it seriously, then turned around and walked to Lin Jiang, took out the drawing and gave it to him: "In this case, you can make two keys for me according to the pattern above.

“It doesn’t have to have the same structure, as long as it looks the same as the drawing on the surface.”

Lin Jiang immediately understood Cui Hengyue's intention: "Yueyue, you want to..."

"Yes, it's what you think." Cui Hengyue thrust the drawings into his hands: "How long will it take you to make these two keys?"

Lin Jiang looked at the drawings and said, "If I want to fake it, it will take me three days at the earliest."

"Ok, I will wait for you."

...

the next morning.

Cui Hengyue ate some of the food brought by Shuifu and then went to the Bodhi Pavilion in the North Hall to compete.

The person competing with her was Huo Tao. He put one hand behind his back and said to Cui Hengyue: "I will give you one hand today. If you can persist in three moves without falling, breakfast will be yours."

Cui Hengyue became angry when he heard the word "give": "You don't need to give in, I will defeat you with my true ability."

Shui Fu quickly advised: "Crazy girl, don't show off. If he is willing to give you a hand, just agree."

"No, I don't need him to let me."

Cui Hengyue is very insistent. She is no longer the weak girl. She must face difficulties and make herself stronger.

Seeing this, Huo Tao stretched out his hand behind his back and took a stance: "Since you insist, let's get started."

As soon as he finished speaking, Cui Hengyue rushed towards him.

Huo Tao responded calmly.

After three moves, Cui Hengyue fell to the ground.

She was so angry that she beat her fists on the ground: "Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"

Why did she lose again?

"Miss Cui, you're welcome." Huo Tao smiled and winked at Cui Hengyue, then picked up the food box and walked out.

Cui Hengyue became even more angry, jumped up and shouted at his back: "Don't be proud, I will defeat you soon."

Huo Tao's voice came from outside the door: "Really? I'll wait and see."

"crazy girl--"

Shui Fu looked at Cui Hengyue and hesitated to speak.

If Cui Hengyue had just agreed to let Huo Tao give her a hand, she would have definitely won.

Shui Fu subconsciously wanted to scold her, but also felt that she was pitiful for losing the breakfast, and couldn't bear it.

Cui Hengyue didn't notice this. She straightened her clothes and waved to Shuifu: "Shuifu, come practice with me."
