Chapter 262 The Battle Began (Part One)
The secret guard should be able to send the news back in time, but how should she leave here? Yun
Shang frowned a little. She had been observing the array around the yard in the daytime, but nothing
had been found.
She had read some books about arrays in her spare time, but she didn't know much about them. The
arrays around the courtyard were obviously works of an expert, or ancient arrays. She was so dizzy
that she couldn't find any way to break the arrays.
She knew that even if she could defeat Uncle Liu and get out of the yard and trapped in the array, she
would definitely die.
Yun Shang didn't know what to do, so she told her secret guards to find a man who was good at arrays
before she fell asleep.
The next morning, Yun Shang got up early. She opened the door and stood in the yard. Uncle Liu came
out as if he had heard the door opened. He was surprised to see Yun Shang and said, "good morning,
Mr. Xiao. I'm making breakfast. Please wait for a moment... "
Yun Shang didn't answer. She looked at the gate of the yard and said, "Uncle Liu, let me go."
Hearing this, Uncle Liu seemed to be stunned. He looked at Yun Shang with a strange look and
lowered his head. "Mr. Xiao, I can't decide it. Please don't make me."
Yun Shang smiled bitterly. "I don't know when counsellor Liu will come back. My mother is in poor
health and she needs to be taken care of. If anything happens to her, I'm afraid I can't live either.
What's more, I'm just an ordinary person and I can't do anything to what Mr. Liu is planning. I have
been staying here all the time and I know nothing about the State of Xia. Why do you make things
difficult for me?"
"Ummm.." Uncle Liu's face was expressionless. He said awkwardly, "Mr. Xiao, it's not that I don't want
to, but I don't dare. Before my master left, he told me to take good care of you." Afraid that Yun Shang
might continue to say something, the servant answered in a hurry, "I'm about to make the porridge in
my pot. Let me have a look." Then he rushed into the kitchen.
Yun Shang squinted her eyes and glanced at the kitchen. After a quick thought, she went into the room
and told Qian Yin to go to the kitchen and stall Uncle Liu for her. Then she rushed to the door, opened it
and ran out of the yard.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Yun Shang was determined. No matter how powerful the array was,
she must enter it and have a look.
Having made up her mind, Yun Shang stepped into the array without hesitation.
She couldn't figure out how powerful the array was if she didn't enter it. The array was made of stone
and tree. There were eight small arrays surrounding it. Yun Shang was astonished. It looked like an
ancient array.
The moment Yun Shang went into the array, dark clouds were all over the sky. They looked so gloomy
that she couldn't help feeling dizzy.
Yun Shang tried to recall some details about the arrays, but she didn't know much about them. Yun
Shang observed the situation before she went into the array. It must be the array called Yunchui Array.
If she wanted to go through the array, she had to enter from a certain door. But she wasn't sure if it was
safe or not. Yun Shang was at a loss. After the door, it was the most dangerous place to get out of the
array. It was another gate at the end and then she had to go through another small array before she
could get out of the big array.
Yun Shang was taken aback by the sudden gust of wind. It was really a headache to be attacked by the
wind. If it was some kind of beast, Yun Shang was not afraid of it at all. As long as it came to meet her,
she would kill it as soon as she saw it. But the wind... Yun Shang raised her head and found the dark
clouds overhead were gradually changing their positions. She looked at them for a while, and knew
they were going to be helpful. The dark clouds formed a pattern. Yun Shang raised her head and
looked at the clouds which had been blocked by the pattern. She followed the pattern, and nothing
stopped her.
In this way, she walked out of the Yunchui array and entered the door. Yun Shang knew that the closer
she was to the center of the array, the more dangerous the situation would be. The life and death doors
were crucial. If she took a wrong step, she would die.
Yun Shang saw a grassland in front of her and it seemed to be quiet. After hesitating for a while, she
stepped out. However, as soon as she entered the gate, the surrounding scenery suddenly changed. In
an instant, the grass just now had disappeared, and she could not even see her fingers. Startled, Yun
Shang could smell an unusual odor wafting in the air. She immediately closed her breath, but still
inhaled a little. In an instant, Yun Shang felt a splitting headache and then lost consciousness.
There was a sudden peace in the array, and Qian Yin said with excitement, "if your master didn't lock
us in the yard, my master wouldn't run out because he worry about his sick mother. What the hell is it?
Why don't you let him out?"
Uncle Liu was shocked too. He took a look at the array and found that the door to the death had been
pushed open.
At the thought of Liu Yinfeng's unusual attitude towards Mr. Xiao, Uncle Liu became even more
shocked and frightened and rushed into the array all of a sudden.
Qian Yin bit her lip. The array was really powerful. Even the princess was unable to flee out. What
should they do? Would they be trapped here?
After a while, uncle Liu came out of the array, carrying unconscious Yun Shang in his arms. Qian Yin's
face changed as she quickly ran to uncle Liu, looking at Yun Shang. Qian Yin asked worriedly, "what
happened to my master?" The black blood spilled from Yun Shang's mouth shocked Qian Yin. She
asked in a trembling voice, "Is he poisoned? How come?"
Uncle Liu frowned and said, "there is toxic smoke in this array. I'm afraid your young master entered it
by mistake and got poisoned."
"What? Is there any antidote? " The more Qian Yin thought about it, the more worried she became. 'I
can't let anything happen to lady Jing.'
Uncle Liu nodded, "yes, antidote is here. But the toxic smoke is very strong. It is used to resist the
invasion of external enemies, but it was sucked in by your master. Even if there is the antidote, your
master will be in a coma for several days." Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Hearing this, Qian Yin bit her lip, "take out the antidote."
Uncle Liu carried Yun Shang into the room, put her on the bed, took out a pill and handed it to Qian
Yin, "Give it to your master. I'll fetch some hot water later. After taking the pill, he need to detoxify. Get
your master into the water, and when the water became clear, it's done."
Qian Yin nodded, and fed the medicine into Yun Shang's mouth. Qian Yin's hands were trembling. She
had thought the princess was gone when she saw Yun Shang's miserable look. Fortunately, she was
still alive.
Qian Yin wiped the tears and the bloodstain on Yun Shang's mouth with a embroidered
handkerchief.
