Chapter 34 Smooth Out of the Mountain

"How are you?" Mo Qingcheng squatted down and said worriedly.

"I can't die!" He Liancheng gritted his teeth.

"Why don't you pull the rope? If I'm a step later..." said, Mo Qingcheng tore off his skirt and helped Helian become a bandage.

"I won't pull, and you won't come down." Obviously, He Liancheng was very dissatisfied with her own ideas.

"I came down because I was worried about you. You didn't mean to pull it!" Mo Qingcheng seemed to remember something.

He Liancheng didn't say anything. Look at her like that, it's reasonable to come down without her own instructions!

"Don't believe me. I don't have to take action at the critical moment!" Seeing his silence, Mo Qingcheng knew that he didn't pull on purpose.

"How can you reassure me that you are unorganized and undisciplined!" He Liancheng snorted, "You are so energetic that you want to murder your own husband!"

Mo Qingcheng did not answer, but helped him walk out of the cave tremblingly.

Seeing her grievance, He Liancheng explained: "After I entered the hole, I found that there were indeed many footprints as Zhong Xin said, but when I took a closer look, those footprints were the same size and clearly the same person. I was worried that there would be an assassin, so I went in first to have a look. Unexpectedly, a figure really flashed. He led me to stop here and started to do it. Come on."

"If you say so, he has been ambushed here for a long time!" Mo Qingcheng was a little puzzled, "But how did he come in alone with such a heavy snow? Does he still have a party?"

He Liancheng shook his head: "He acted alone twice. I guess he didn't have a party!"

"Did he come in before the heavy snow? But how did he guess that there would be a snowstorm here? Mo Qingcheng was even more puzzled, "Does he know the art of divination?"

"It's not! He is not divination, but arranged in advance. There was a trace of light in He Liancheng's eyes.

"Arranged?" Mo Qingcheng is puzzled.

"Because of the terrain, Shide Village is attacked by a snowstorm every year, and this year is no exception, but it is more serious than previous years! The man in black grabbed this and sneaked into the village as early as the beginning of the snow and waited in the cave. He Liancheng coughed and garg twice, getting closer and closer to the hole, and the more tired and colder he became.

Seeing this, Mo Qingcheng put the brocade and fur cloak he wore on his body before going down the mountain back to him. He even saw the sweat on her face and did not refuse.

"But how did he know that the emperor would send you to deal with this?" If the man in black can predict the wind and snow, how can he guess the emperor's mind?

"He doesn't need to know, as long as someone recommends me in front of the emperor!" What He Liancheng said was light, as if he had known it for a long time.

"Who recommended you?" After struggling for a moment, Mo Qingcheng still asked.

"Prince!"

"You mean the prince sent someone to assassinate you?" Mo Qingcheng exclaimed.

He Liancheng shook his head, "I guess the prince doesn't know about this. I don't have any contact with him and I don't threaten him. Moreover, I'm deeply valued by the emperor now. It's too irrational for him to choose to do it at this time!"

"Don't beat around the bush and tell me who wants to kill you!" Seeing that he looked confident, Mo Qingcheng suddenly became angry.

"I suspect that the man in black is the man behind the prince. He used the prince to seduce me here!"

Mo Qingcheng's velvet-like black eyebrows frowned, and only this explanation was reasonable. He could quietly use the prince and retreated.

It seems that this man in black is not simple, and he should be more cautious in the future. It's a pity that we are in the dark and can't be prevented!

When their eyes lit up, the two came out of the cave. There was no shadow of the man in black outside, and even his footprints were covered by the falling snowflakes, and he didn't even know where he fled.

He Liancheng hugged Mo Qingcheng and walked towards the house in front of him in the wind and snow.

"Is anyone there?" Mo Qingcheng stretched out his hand and knocked on the door.

After several knocks, an old man staggered to open the door.

"Who are you looking for?" When the old man saw that he was a stranger, he asked warily.

His face is sallow. At first glance, he hasn't had enough to eat for many days. It seems that the disaster here is really serious.

"Grandpa, we were sent by the court to investigate the disaster. We want to understand the terrain and consider how to send food in." Mo Qingcheng explained amicably.

"From the court, come in, come in!" The old man smiled and was very excited.

"Do you have any hemostatic drugs? We accidentally hurt our arm when we went down the mountain." Mo Qingcheng pointed to He Liancheng's injured arm and asked.

"Yes, wait." The old man smiled at Mo Qingcheng, turned around and shouted to the inner room, "Lao, come out quickly. The court sent someone to take out the bottle of hemostatic medicine."

"The court has sent someone." After a while, a skinny old woman came out with a small medicine bottle.

"Are you sent by the court?" The old woman handed the medicine bottle to Mo Qingcheng and looked at her excitedly.

"Yes, aunt, the court will send food soon." Although Mo Qingcheng didn't know how to send food in, she made a promise.

Seeing them worrying about food, she remembered that when she was a child, she was thin, and other children always bullied her, secretly dumped her food, and she always didn't have enough to eat.
