Chapter 211: Carelessness
was exaggerated by the white-haired old man, and the man suddenly became bright, and asked: "Please Mr. Tu Da instruct, how to do the humble duty?"
"What you have to do is go back and receive your reward. Or continue the investigation and claim the reward together. ”
"This ...... What about Sioux City?"
"There, the old man went in person. ”
The white-haired old man turned around again, raised his head, and looked at the south from afar, his face becoming serious.
Darkness and silence.
In the dragon and phoenix courtyard of Yingjia, it is even more lonely.
It took two full days of winter sunlight for the earth to melt the snow that covered it, but it took only one night to wrap itself in a thick coat of silver.
Occasionally, the wind blows, causing the falling snowflakes to change the trajectory of their movements, but they cannot change their fate when they finally fall on the ground.
The same is true for sentient beings in the underworld, that is, from birth, fate is predestined, but the process is full of ups and downs, making people see the hope of changing their fate, but they can't really change their fate after all. Unless, you can be above the sentient beings and be a person who controls the fate of all sentient beings.
Everyone wants to be such a person, which is why the world of soul guests is so colorful.
At the end of the day, Ying Cai Gee woke up as usual, dressed in a cute wool velvet nightdress. This kind of outfit can't help her keep out the cold, and the strong temperature difference caused by the sudden emergence of the warm quilt makes her feel extremely cold.
She quickly put on a padded jacket over the covers, but she shivered.
There was a soft knock on the door. Hearing this sound, Ying Cai Geese lit the lamp. A woman's voice came from outside the door.
"Head of the family, I'm Song Song. ”
"Come in. "Ying Caige's door never has to be locked, this is convenient for when there is a crisis situation, Bawei can come in time to save her. The door opened as soon as it was pushed from the outside, and I was not afraid of any thieves breaking in. Si Fengwei's vigilance is very high, and four people are on duty in turns at night, and there is always one person who will not sleep when lying on the bed. They are already very familiar with the footsteps of these girls in the inner courtyard, this is also Song Song, if a different person from the Dragon Courtyard walks in, Si Fengwei will immediately come out to act as a door god.
Song Song is a well-dressed little girl, who looks to be thirteen or fourteen years old, wearing a green robe, holding a bowl of fruit juice, her hands tremble slightly, and the tips of her fingers are a little red. The life of a girl from a big family like this is not bad, but Song Song still has chilblains, which shows that the cold wind on the winter night is extremely strong, and just a little bit of it makes people feel uncomfortable.
"The master of the house, just made it, drink it!" This is almost an old saying that must be said every day, Ying Caige smiled slightly, took the fruit juice, and drank it all in one sip.
Watching Ying Cai's goose drink neatly, a hint of cunning flashed across the corners of Song Song's smiling mouth.
At the last moment of the operation, Song Lao perfected the plan again and asked his granddaughter to put some medicine in the fruit juice. Of course, nature is not a poison, just a medicine that makes people unconscious. In this way, after Ying Cai's goose falls into the secret passage, it will not shout, and the chance of alarming the eight guards is even smaller.
The medicinal power in the fruit juice did not attack immediately, but Ying Cai Ge was still used to continuing to sleep, and when he saw Song Song cleaning up the empty bowl on the table, he said, "I slept, and you cover the door when you go out." ”
"Yes. Song Song responded, turned his face and secretly glanced at Ying Caige. Seeing that she really closed her eyes and lay down, she was sure that she recalled her grandfather's explanation to herself, so she picked up the empty bowl and walked towards Ying Caige's bed step by step.
Song Song's steps were very light, and her eyes were firmly fixed on Ying Caige's face, thinking that as soon as she opened her eyes, she would immediately prevaricate with the words she had prepared. But until she walked to the bedside, Ying Caige still didn't react, obviously no longer had any defenses against her.
The little girl's personality is kind and simple, even if she has a reputation as a strong little head of the family outside, but at home she will not treat anyone as an enemy. If you can't even trust the people in your family, then who else can you trust?
Feelings and wisdom reflect their differences in Ying Caige.
She is such a simple person, but complex to say.
Song Song squatted down lightly and reached for the bottom of the bed. I counted silently in my heart.
Finally, with a smile on her face, she had clearly found what she was looking for, and she twisted it.
At this time, Ying Caige sat up, looked at Song Song with a puzzled face, and asked, "What are you doing?" Why haven't you gone out yet?"
At this point, Song Song was no longer panicked, and with a movement of her hand, the bed board under Ying Cai's goose suddenly "squeaked" and flipped over, as if she had been pressed in.
"Ahh She panicked for a moment, and she didn't know how long she had been slipping in the dark. The collision between her body and the wall reduced the effect of gravity, so that she did not have much pain after stopping, but her body was unbalanced, and the whole person flipped over, and her head hit the ground.
This secret passage was designed for her, and of course she knew it. But the problem is, she never used it. However, she remembered that Si Qi had told her that there were no lights in the secret passage to facilitate escape, but there were many forks in the tunnel. Keep in mind that the forks are fake, and once you enter the secret passage, you just have to keep going to find the exit.
With the words Siqi in my mind, Ying Cai is not afraid that he will not be able to go out. But the problem is that she can't figure it out for a while, why did Song Song move this secret passage in a dignified manner? Did she do it on purpose, or did she accidentally touch it?
Suddenly, Ying Cai's goose looked dazed.
You know, the switch of this secret passage is not the kind that will be opened at the touch of a button, but must be rotated clockwise and counterclockwise according to the method, no matter how unintentional, it is impossible to be so coincidental unintentionally, right?
Also, Song Song's eyes at that time obviously looked like a trick had succeeded.
There must be a problem!
An ominous premonition unfolded in Ying Caige's heart, and she murmured: "Does she want to be unfavorable to me?" In this case, Song Song knows about this secret passage, so if she sends me into the secret passage, there must be a backhand! Could it be ...... Someone came down at the exit of the secret passage? What is their purpose...... Just to catch me?"
"If so...... I can't go to the exit, I have to hide!"
Thinking of this, Ying Caige felt a pain in his head, and suddenly the whole person felt that the sky was spinning, the ground under his feet flipped up, and then he fell on his back, and the originally blurred vision in front of him gradually became dark.
"It's despicable......" Ying Caige whispered before falling unconscious.
It's not cold in the secret passage, but it's still a little warm. In fact, even if it is cold, it can't be as cold as the cold winter snow outside. But on the contrary, Ying Caige felt that he had fallen into the ice cellar.
It was a chill in the heart.
