"What are you doing in a daze, hurry up!" I saw that he was stunned, pulled the corner of his clothes, raised his legs and walked out of the light......

Out of the stone room, the sky was already bright, the scene in front of me made my eyes narrow, according to my guess, we came to the back mountain of Hufu through the stone room, the grass and trees are lush, but because it was early winter, it has withered and withered, and it looks desolate.

The leaves are still dripping with water, the road is muddy, there is a lot of water in the potholes, and even the air is exceptionally fresh.

It is estimated that there was a rain last night when Xie Wenyuan and I were trapped in the stone room, and the rain had just stopped for a short time, and the sky was still overcast, and the black clouds were extremely low, as if there would be a heavy rain at any time.

In the early winter, after the rain, the air was a little cold, and I shivered, sneezed heavily, rubbed my nose, and took a closer look at where we were.

I saw a road more than a meter wide stretching forward, with a thousand birch forests on the left side of the road, a steep slope on the right, rocks and overgrown bushes, and some plants with unknown red fruits in the middle, which looked a little dazzling in a pile of dead grass.

I can't help but wonder, where does this road lead?

This is, Xie Wenyuan squatted down with a "Huh!" sound, and then beckoned to me, "Come and see!"

I wondered what he had found, so I leaned over and crouched down.

"What's wrong?"

"Look at these rut marks on the ground. Xie Wenyuan pointed with his finger.

The ruts on the road are pressed very deeply, and because of the rain, there is water in it, and the rut marks are still staggered, obviously more than one car has passed, and from this extremely deep print, it is even more said that you have this, a single car can not press such a deep mark.

I frowned slightly, where did these rut marks come from? Looking at the freshness of the soil, these rut marks should have been left before the rain, that is, before we came to Hufu.

I got up and looked, and the road was broken at the entrance of the stone chamber, indicating that the road was from the same place in the stone chamber.

So where do rut marks come about?

Is it from the stone chamber, or from somewhere to the stone chamber?

But soon, Xie Wenyuan's words solved this doubt for me, he pointed to a depression on the ground and said, "This should be a horseshoe print!"

I took a closer look and saw that the depression was in a shallow U-shape, and it was scattered on the road surface, and because of the rain, it was really not easy to find if I was not careful.

The direction of the horse's hooves is from the stone chamber to the front of the road. From this, it can be inferred that the carriages traveled all the way from the stone chamber, and that there were more than one, and judging by the depth of the rut marks, the carriages must have carried heavy loads.

So what the hell could it be?

My mind suddenly flashed through the time when we were wandering around the Hu Mansion, and I found that the valuable things in the Hu Mansion had been "looted", and Juan Zhi was such a money-loving person, could these carriages be used by him to transport his belongings?

Thinking about it this way, there is a chance that Juan Zhi knew that there was a stone chamber under the main house in the courtyard, and the stone chamber could lead to the outside world, so he dug a hole and transported the belongings from the hole to the stone chamber by some means, and then found a carriage to transport it away, and unknowingly escaped our eyes.

A cold glint flashed in my eyes, this Juan Zhi is really not ordinary cunning.

I called Xie Wenyuan, intending to follow the road all the way down to see if I could find anything.

The road after the rain is muddy and difficult to walk, and if you accidentally slip under your feet, you may fall into a mud figure, and the worst thing is that if you fall down the slope, it is estimated that you will have to take half your life. So Xie Wenyuan and I walked a little cautiously, so that the speed would slow down a lot.

After walking for about half an hour, the sky began to rain sporadically again, and the rain could increase at any time.

Xie Wenyuan and I glanced at each other, we can't waste too much time here, if we don't find a place to shelter from the rain quickly, if the rain is heavy, we will only get worse. So we couldn't help but speed up our pace.

But God does not fulfill people's wishes, this road seems endless, and there is no end in sight no matter how you go.

At this time, the rain was a little heavier, and it turned into a light rain, the clothes on our bodies were completely soaked, cold and cold on our bodies, the wind blew, the cold was to the bones, I sneezed several times in a row, Xie Wenyuan was better, I didn't expect to see his weak appearance, and the bottom of his body was okay.

"We have to find a place to shelter from the rain, because it won't go on and the rain will only get heavier. I said.

Xie Wenyuan bowed, "Let's go back and see if there are any caves or the like that can shelter from the rain." ”

So the two of us continued to walk, but what we encountered was not a cave where we could take shelter from the rain and rest, and people would stuff their teeth when they were unlucky.

I watched warily at the four or five ghost-faced men in black who were blocking our way, the masks were the same as those found by Zhao Cheng in Juan's Mansion, but they were lighter in color and less elaborate in workmanship.

They jumped out of the forest on the hillside on the right, the robes on their bodies and the long sword in their hands, the tip of which pointed directly at the ground, dripping with water, so that they had a murderous aura.

I narrowed my eyes, touched my waist with my hand, and held the jade flute tightly in my hand, they were in such a position, and the fool also knew that the comer was not good.

Xie Wenyuan didn't expect that so many people would suddenly be killed in the middle of the road, all wearing ghost masks, and he was startled, and his body was for a while, and he who was originally walking in front of me suddenly retreated.

When I saw his actions, I thought he was scared and wanted to run away. Thinking about it immediately, it is normal, he is a weak scholar, how to fight these people, of course, it is the best policy.

But Xie Wenyuan retreated to my side and had no intention of retreating further, he leaned close to my ear and whispered, "Princess, go quickly, I'll drag them down." ”

When I heard his words, my eyes widened in disbelief, thinking that I had heard it wrong, he didn't know martial arts, and he was powerless, so he thought of protecting me and letting me go first.

I couldn't help but be a little moved, my eyes flashed with starlight, and I was about to speak, let him retreat behind me, and when I could still handle these little minions, Xie Wenyuan's whole person was already in front of me, and pushed me back vigorously.

"Who the hell are you?" Xie Wenyuan shouted with confidence.

The ghost-faced man in black laughed and replied, "The one who wants your life!"

With that, he approached us step by step with his long sword......

I was pushed by Xie Wenyuan, he looked at the approacher, and seemed to be a little anxious, urging me in a low voice: "Hurry up, it's too late!"

He was bent on protecting me, how could I leave him alone and escape, so Xie Wenyuan and I switched places, and I blocked him behind, and the jade flute flashed in the rain, with a hint of murderous aura......
