Chapter 47 Cangqi Secret Box
Wen Wan shed tears and choked up her tears.
"I killed them!"
Shen Yu's eyes dimmed and he raised his hand to pull her into his arms. He gently stroked her back and comforted her:
"It's not your fault, it's those people... who are cruel and cruel."
Wen Wan stubbornly shook her head, "It's my fault. I didn't realize the importance of that piece of chimeric jade, and it's me... I didn't trust you enough."
As long as she thought about the old master who was joking with her a few days ago, teasing her about buying a jade ring to give to her sweetheart, but now being burned alive in the shop, her head felt like needle pricks.
It's her, who obviously doesn't have the strength, but still wants to get involved in these complicated things.
If she had told Shen Yu about the chimeric jade earlier, maybe the people in the jewelry shop would not have died.
Wen Wan raised her head, her eyes clear and determined.
"Zhou Chai, let's make a deal. I will give you the things in the chimeric jade, and you promise me that you will avenge the innocent people who died in the jewelry shop!"
Shen Yu stared at her in surprise, as if he couldn't believe the information in her words.
"You mean, the things in the chimeric jade are here with you?"
Wen Wan wiped away her tears and nodded, "I'm sorry, it's not that I don't regard you as a friend. I just think that rather than placing my hope on the illusory trust between people, I would rather believe that money can make things worse." .”
Shen Yu's pupils shrank for a while.
As she said, she really didn't trust him enough.
Therefore, she would rather make an offer that he couldn't refuse than talk about friendship and trust with him.
She is a sensible woman.
It's just that it's a little cooler.
Shen Yu suddenly realized that he had misjudged her all this time.
On the surface, he seems careless and heartless, and seems to be nice to everyone around him, but in reality, deep down, he is the most cold and hard-hearted person.
She doesn't trust anyone but interests.
You can't say she was wrong, because if it were him, he would make the same choice.
He was just...a little distressed.
Shen Yu said softly: "Although I don't know what you have experienced before, which makes you see through human nature so clearly, I can't guarantee that I will be trustworthy for you. However, I agree to the conditions you put forward."
"I will find the person behind the scenes, and I promise you, I will avenge the innocent people who were burned to death in the jewelry store."
Hearing this, Wen Wan took off the necklace from her neck and placed the small key inside in Shen Yu's palm.
"This is what's in chimeric jade."
Shen Yu picked up the small key and looked at it carefully. Although the key was small, he recognized the pattern on the back of the key.
Wen Wan asked tentatively: "Is this what you have been looking for?"
If so, that's great. In this way, she has completed her mission.
"No." Shen Yu gave an affirmative answer, "But this key should be more important than what we are looking for."
Wen Wan: "Huh?"
Shen Yu put the key away, "Did you know that this key also has a name."
Wen Wan shook her head.
Shen Yu: "Aren't you asking what exactly we are looking for? Let me tell you right now, what we are looking for is a letter. This letter should be packed in a box called Cangqi Secret Box. And this The key is the key to open the secret box of Cangqi.”
He said this because he wanted Wen Wan to trust him a little more.
"As for the secret in this letter, no one knows." Shen Yu frowned and said: "We have always guessed that this secret letter may be in the ancient tomb, but we have never been completely sure. Now, after seeing the key, it is Confirmed our guess.”
Wen Wan also understood, "The key is there, so the Cangqi secret box you mentioned should also be in the cemetery."
"But in the cemetery we have been to, there is no Cangqi Secret Box you mentioned. Could it be that we have overlooked something?"
Shen Yu shook his head and saw that the tea in her hand was cold, so he gave her another cup of hot tea.
"There is no Cangqi Secret Box in the cemetery we searched. I can be sure of this."
The more Wen Wan listened, the more confused she became.
Shen Yu explained: "Each of the two ancient tombs you took us into has traces related to what we are looking for."
Wen Wan understood something, "When you said that, I remembered it. In the ancient tomb under the mountain temple, you found chimeric jade. In the ancient tomb in the Empress Temple, you got three combos Crossbow Parts ”
"Yeah." Shen Yu concluded, "So the person who hid the things put all the things related to the Cangqi Secret Box in different ancient tombs. If we keep looking, we will definitely find the Cangqi Secret Box."
Wen Wan finally knew the whole story, but her mood became increasingly heavy.
A mysterious box, I don’t know what kind of secret it hides, but it has killed so many people before it has ever seen the light of day.

"I will take you to find the ancient tomb tomorrow! Find the things early, otherwise we don't know how many people will be killed."
Wen Wan spoke eagerly and looked at Shen Yu's legs, "By the way, your injury is not fully healed yet."
He just had a superficial wound. After being nursed for these days, the wound has almost healed and he can barely walk, but it may be difficult to run around to find the grave.
Shen Yu touched the top of her head helplessly, "I know you are anxious, but not tomorrow, let's give it a few days. Since they have found the jewelry shop, they must still have their people in the city. At this time, it would be too conspicuous for us to go out of the city. ”
It was undeniable that what he said made sense, so Wen Wan agreed.

When Wen Wan returned to the yard, she didn't see Wen En.
At this time in the past, he would usually be in the kitchen preparing lunch, but today was unusual, not even a single figure was seen.
Because of the burning of the jewelry shop, she felt heavy and had no intention of looking for him.
She sat blankly on the doorstep, resting her head on her elbows, with red eyes, staring blankly at the dimming sunset on the horizon.
Suddenly, a figure ran towards her with bare feet on the street corner.
She raised her eyes and saw that Wen En's clothes were burned to pieces, his head and face were covered with heavy dust, and only a pair of clean eyes were exposed.
"Sister!"
Wen En rushed towards her in embarrassment, raised his hand tremblingly, as if he wanted to touch her face with his pitch-black fingers.
Wen Wan stepped back and said, "Well, what did you do? You look like you crawled out of the fire. Your hands are so dirty. Go wash them first."
His hands were frozen in the air, and his voice was crying.
"Sister, you are not dead, not dead..."
Wen Wan's eyes widened, "Bah, bah, bah! I'm living well, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Wen Wan immediately burst into tears and smiled. She cried in a miserable state and smiled in a miserable state.
He raised his hand to wipe his tears. His face was stained with dust and became stained more and more, but he didn't care.
"I thought... I thought you were burned to death. I rushed in to find you and found so many corpses. I was so scared... Sister, don't die..."
He burst into tears and described intermittently.
An idea flashed in Wen Wan's mind, and she asked in shock: "Did you go to the jewelry store?"
