It's quiet at night.

Even the sound of wind stopped all around.

The fast horse stopped in a small forest in the distance, and Huo Changhe led the people on foot through the forest. Each of them was carrying a small box.

Walking through the forest, you will suddenly see a bright scene in front of you.

This is the ancestral grave of the Shen family.

Huo Changhe took out the prepared incense, lit it and walked to General Shen's tomb.

"Old general, I'm Huo Changhe. I haven't seen you for many years. You are inside and I am outside. I didn't expect that I would still have to trouble you this time."

"If it weren't for your grandson Shen Huaixin who has no regard for the country and the people and is unfaithful and unjust, I would not come here to disturb you."

"I'm really sorry."

After Huo Changhe said this, he did not put the incense in front of the grave, but distributed it directly to his secret guards.

One person each took the incense, turned around and ran in all directions.

In front of the ancestral grave of the Shen family, there are eight directions, one person standing in each direction.

Getting ready, Huo Changhe fired a signal arrow, and immediately, the eight of them lit the fuse together.

……

Shen Huaixin was in the study room, thinking wildly with his eyes closed. Since that night, he had not slept well. His eyes were sore and his mind was so chaotic that he couldn't sleep.

Tonight is no exception.

As soon as his mind was confused, the sound of footsteps suddenly woke him up.

He opened his eyes immediately, tears almost flowed out, and the discomfort in his eyes worsened.

"Sir," the housekeeper came closer and whispered back, "There is news from the Princess's Mansion."

Shen Huaixin rubbed his eyes and asked, "What's the news?"

"It is said that I have checked twice. Although I was blocked from the door and did not see it with my own eyes, I asked the maid in the courtyard and found out that Princess Mingzhao is indeed bedridden and has not eaten in the past two days."

"What else?" Shen Huaixin asked.

"He went to check what the maid had disposed of, and the stuff he vomited had a fishy odor and was yellow-green in color."

As the housekeeper spoke, he felt a little nauseous and had goose bumps.

Shen Huaixin's eyes with two big dark circles were shining brightly.

That's right, this is exactly the same symptom as the Gu Master said.

It's not that he doesn't believe in Gu Masters, but that no one completely believes in them, and he must ensure that nothing goes wrong.

Now that he was sure that the Gu worms in the main body of Mingzhao County were alive, he could take control of both Princess Mingzhao and Huo Changhe at once.

Princess Mingzhao didn't care, but he was very satisfied that this woman could become a tool in his hands and help him control Huo Changhe.

"Send the order and proceed as planned!"

"Yes."

The housekeeper turned to leave, but before he reached the door, suddenly there was a loud "Bang!" in the distance.

The sound came suddenly like spring, and was especially clear in the silent night. The housekeeper was startled and almost fell down.

Shen Huaixin naturally heard it, and he didn't even know if it was an illusion, but the ground shook a little.

No, it wasn't on the ground, it should be... His heart was shaking, he was panicking for no reason, he was uncontrollably flustered.

"Sir..." The housekeeper also had a bad premonition and his face turned pale, "This voice seems to be coming from over there."

As soon as he pointed, Shen Huaixin became even more panicked. He covered his chest and said, "Go and check. We must find out what's going on!"

"Yes!"

Yan Ruyu woke up from her sleep. The sound was too familiar. It was the sound of gunpowder exploding!

what happened? She subconsciously touched her side, but Huo Changhe was not there.

She sat up immediately. The seat next to her was cold. Huo Changhe should have been gone for a while.

Where have you been?

Yan Ruyu remembered that she had made a batch of small explosive bags and gave twenty to the secret guards for safekeeping.

Could it be...

Yan Ruyu didn't have to doubt that Huo Changhe must have made the sound, but the question was, where did he explode?

Shen Mansion? No, he wouldn't be so reckless.

And listening to this sound, it is definitely not a bomb. With so many bombs exploding Shen Mansion, the sound will be louder and closer, and the whole city should be in trouble at this time.

With her heart beating a few times, Yan Ruyu calmed down again, "That's all, Huo Changhe was also angry. He was not a reckless person, so let him go."

Shen Huaixin indeed went too far and needed to be corrected.

Thinking of this, she lay back down again, but couldn't fall asleep anymore. She closed her eyes and rested her mind, waiting for Huo Changhe to come back.

Just as I was thinking about it, the space shook and there was a letter from the abbot.

Yan Ruyu entered the space, and as soon as the connection was connected, the abbot's voice immediately came in urgently.

"Ruyu, did you hear it? There was an explosion!"

"Did you hear that too?"

"Of course, my God, it's not that close, but there's still such a big movement. The power of this explosion is really quite big."

Yan Ruyuxin said, Sure enough, anyone who knows the power of explosives can feel it, even the abbot can hear it.

The abbot asked again: "Where are you? Is it really not you?"

"I'm at the house and haven't gone anywhere."

She told the truth.

"That's weird," the abbot hesitated and raised his voice, "No way? Could it be your grandfather using this method to find you? This is an earth-shattering method."

Yan Ruyu: "..." This brain circuit.

However, this is indeed a solution.

"No, I have to go and inquire about it tomorrow. It's too late today. I hope it will light up soon, haha."

After the abbot finished speaking, he hung up directly without waiting for Yan Ruyu to answer.

Yan Ruyu still wanted to say, but there was no sound over there.

That's all, let's talk to him tomorrow.

Speaking of her grandfather, Yan Ruyu couldn't help but feel a little sad. She is now settled here and is unlikely to leave in a short time. She also has to find ways to find her grandfather's whereabouts.

It was difficult to find him in the past. Firstly, he didn’t know what his grandfather would become in this life. Secondly, he was in exile at the time and had no fixed residence and could not contact him.

Now that everything is stable, she can start. Finding her grandfather will not only relieve her of some worries, but also help each other. With her grandfather around, she can also feel at ease.

Thinking of this, she also thought that it would be dawn soon, and planned to ask the head shopkeeper of the Qian family to help pay attention first.

They have business routes, and there are many people going around, not only within the territory of the dynasty, but also often when going to the customs. Last time, I heard Linlang said that she met an old man with the same ability outside the customs. Yan Ruyu thought, Grandpa Is it possible that it also falls outside the customs?

Amidst the complicated thoughts, I hope that Huo Changhe will return as soon as possible and that the sky will dawn as soon as possible.

Outside the city, Huo Changhe looked at the masterpiece in front of him and was very satisfied.

Wearing a head-mounted solar lamp, the ray man glanced at it, admired it again, and sent a signal arrow to prepare for evacuation.

Yin Ding was the closest to him and came to report first, with excitement that could not be concealed in his little eyes.

"Master, we..."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly heard a "plop".

Yin Ding immediately stopped talking, his eyes sharpened, and he looked around.

Huo Changhe frowned and put his hand on the hilt of his sword: "What's the sound?"

"looking around."

Yin Ding took a small flashlight and looked around first, but found nothing. Suddenly he heard a sound coming from the blasted pit, and he slowly approached it.

The light shines in.
