Chapter 204: Running into an Acquaintance
The whistling spring breeze with a slight chill blows across the land, and also blows through this ancient city mansion. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
From the other side of the street, two figures galloped quickly, and disappeared here in a short time.
"Senior sister, is Lao Zhao really your father?" Li Pu glanced here with big eyes, his face a little unnatural.
"Nonsense. Zhao Ying gave him a blank look.
"Really. Li Pu muttered quietly and didn't speak anymore.
At this time, the two of them had already arrived at their destination, and in front of them was the Ling Mansion, which could be called the Longtan Tiger's Den.
For many years, Danfang Yimai has been looking for the Ling family's warehouse, although they have all failed, but the predecessors have also summed up some and left a lot of valuable clues.
And this precious clue has always been in the hands of the Zhao family, from the ancestors of the Zhao family to Zhao Yi's generation, and finally handed over to Zhao Ying by Zhao Yi, so there is this action and task.
Hula!
The two climbed over the high wall, and their figures disappeared into the Ling Mansion.
At this time, the night was thick, and the lights of Wanjia had long been extinguished, but there were still a few rooms in the Ling Mansion that were still shining with spring fires, and under the beating of the spring fires, some figures were flickering.
Thankfully, there weren't many vigils in the Ling Mansion, so it was relatively safe.
"Senior sister. Li Pu suppressed his voice.
"Don't speak. Zhao Ying whispered, also with a solemn expression.
Lingfu is composed of half of the quadrangle, the front yard is a quadrangle, but the backyard is distributed with many small courtyards, each courtyard has a different role, large and small, about 20 or so.
Over the years, the Danfang family has already penetrated the inside and outside of the Ling Mansion, and now Zhao Ying's main task is on the old deacon.
According to the Zhao family's speculation, the Ling family's warehouse should be a small space, not an entity, but there is only one possibility that it can be presented in the form of space and has not been damaged for thousands of years.
Vessels, vessels of the level of kings and gods.
"You mean, this old guy took the warehouse with him?" Li Pu looked suddenly enlightened.
"No, he couldn't have taken it with him, but he knew the warehouse was there. Zhao Ying replied.
"If he doesn't go to the warehouse, will we just wait?" Li Pu was stunned for a moment.
"It's the best way to go. Zhao Ying said.
"No, I don't have time. Li Pu's old face sank, and he frowned: "If you say that, let's go back! ”
"I promised my ancestor that I must find the Ling family's warehouse, and if I want to go back, you will go back yourself. Zhao Ying swept him coldly.
"It's your ancestor again, and he's a scourge. Li Pu muttered, but soon he quieted down, and his whole body tensed.
In their sight, a sneaky, thief-headed, fat guy passed by.
At this moment, Li Pu's eyes widened and he looked confused, and even Zhao Ying froze.
Chen Yuanyuan.
He even blended in here, and he was dressed in the clothes of a disciple of the Ling family, but as long as people who had seen him could recognize him at a glance, this kind of dress was too shabby.
"Why is Senior Brother Chen here?" Li Pu came back to his senses.
"Dead fatty, have you eaten the bear's heart and leopard gall?" Zhao Ying gritted her teeth.
"No, we have to keep up, let's see what this senior brother is going to do?" Li Pu took out two pills from the Qiankun bag, this is the Yi Rong Pill he refined not long ago, but he didn't expect it to play a role now.
"What?"
"Eat, quick. Li Pu didn't explain, and after swallowing the Yirong Pill in one gulp, he walked out directly.
Chen Yuanyuan's speed was very fast, and he seemed to be familiar with this place, he went in and out left and right, constantly walking through the Ling Mansion, and finally, he came to a dilapidated small courtyard.
With a whoosh, he disappeared straight here.
Li Pu's face froze, frowned, and did not rush in.
"It's here. Zhao Ying said in a deep voice, the depths of her eyes flashing with a fine light.
"There?" Li Pu turned around.
"This is the retreat of the old man. Zhao Ying spoke, a little dignified: "According to legend, a thousand years have passed, she is still alive, so this is not only her retreat place, but also a forbidden area for everyone's life, even the people of the Ling family dare not rush into here." ”
"You mean, the female senior who had a relationship with Lan Cangyun a thousand years ago?" Li Pu exclaimed.
"What are you yelling about. Zhao Yingyuan glared, and then said, "Yes, this is the retreat place of that senior. ”
"Then why did Senior Brother Chen go in?" Li Pu was surprised.
"How do I know that the fat man must be hiding some secret. Zhao Ying showed a fierce appearance, and had a posture of taking Chen Yuanyuan out and torturing him.
"No, I'm going to go in and have a look. Before Li Pu's words fell, Zhao Ying grabbed him.
"According to the records of the predecessors, no one who goes in will come out alive. Zhao Ying's expression was solemn.
However, at this moment, the fat figure resurfaced again, he poked his head out of the corner of the courtyard, searched around, and slipped away directly after seeing no one.
Zhao Ying's face froze, Li Pu's expression was strange, he really wanted to go out and leave Chen Yuanyuan, but the thief who ran away was fast.
"No one has dared to enter here for many years, and I seriously suspect that the Ling family's warehouse is here. Li Pu said seriously.
"It's unlikely. Zhao Ying shook her head: "It is said that after the battle between that senior and Lan Cangyun, her temperament changed greatly, and she became a murderer, and no one dared to approach her." ”
"Eh, little junior brother, surnamed Li, you come back for me. Zhao Ying glared angrily at Li Pu, who had already gone away.
This courtyard is not very large, about 20 meters in diameter, the beams of the house almost collapsed, very dilapidated, and the yard is overgrown with lush weeds, full of human heads, at a glance it seems to have come to a desolate place in a barren mountain.
But the strange thing is that the road leading from the gate of the courtyard to the main gate still exists, and despite the weeds, it does not occupy this road, as if it is a subconscious concession.
Li Pu swept around, revealing vigilance, but also slowing down.
"Boy, do you want to die?" Zhao Ying followed, suppressing her voice with some anger.
However, Li Pu ignored her, his eyes kept falling on the house directly in front of him, which was shrouded in darkness and could not see the picture clearly, but Li Pu had a feeling that there seemed to be a person sitting there, and that person was staring at him.
There is no killing intent, no cold intent, there is just an inexplicable melancholy, and there are some years of desolation.
In the end, Li Pu came to the main gate, he stood here silently, and during this period, Zhao Ying said a total of more than 30 words, all of which persuaded Li Pu not to be impulsive.
"I've seen my seniors. Li Pu saluted.
"What do you mean? Senior, let me tell you, you have to leave here today, this task is too dangerous for you. Zhao Ying chattered.
Suddenly, there was a faint point of light in the house shrouded in darkness, which gradually became clearer, and then turned into a lamp without a lamp body, and it was suspended in the void, beating all the time, and it also illuminated the dilapidated house.
Zhao Ying froze there for the first time.
Li Pu also opened his eyes wide, and his face was incredible.
There was a figure sitting there, a middle-aged woman, about thirty years old, with long hair and a shawl, wearing an old Taoist robe, with a pair of very misty eyes, looking from a distance, like a nun in a nun's death, but also like a witch from the demon world.
And the strange thing is that her whole person is quiet and peaceful, there is no fluctuation in her body, and her breath is like that of a mortal middle-aged woman and child.
However, the calmer she showed, the more terrifying it was for Li Pu and Zhao Ying, because they knew very well what kind of person they were facing.
Suddenly, she opened her eyes, and a few rays of light burst out from her blurred eyes, and then she stretched out a big hand and poked into Li Pu's sea of qi.
"Little junior brother, be careful. Zhao Ying exclaimed, instinctively reacting at the first time.
"Senior, why are you here?" Li Pu was in a different state from Zhao Ying, he was shocked, and his heart was deeply shocked.
