Chapter 195: Bloodlight Calamity
VIP chapter content,
The sky is low and the night is scarce. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info The three black shadows sneakily stuck to the wall, walked through the shadowy ancient mansion, and stopped in a corner, Helian Tao wore a masked towel on his face, and his voice was muffled, and said to Li Shuci: "I'll take you to jump over." Mu Yun had already jumped on the wall first, and gestured to the two of them silently. Li Shuci's arm was grabbed by Helian Tao, and with a force under his feet, the three of them had already jumped into the courtyard.
Except for the lacquered wooden coffin placed in the courtyard, the courtyard was empty and deadly silent. The girls and mother-in-law have been cleared out. It was not the first time that Li Shuci had looked at the coffin in the middle of the night, they were all prepared, and they circled around the coffin, and there was nothing unusual, so they wanted to go to the residence of Aunt Shen and Grandma in the main courtyard. As soon as he moved, he heard someone talking at the root of the wall outside the courtyard, and a warm yellow light reflected on the wall outside the courtyard.
"Ouch, just now I passed by Aunt Fang's yard, and I heard screams inside, you said that this Aunt Lan did such a lack of virtue behind her uncle's back, and she didn't know how to cover it up more and more, Aunt Fang hid for so many days, but she still didn't hide it, and when she went down with a bowl of medicine, she was red!" It should be the mother-in-law of the big house who patrols the night, and she will gossip to relieve her boredom while walking.
Another woman said, "What a sin! When Ming'er goes down to the underworld, I don't know what kind of retribution I will receive! When the eldest lady was there, she was not so blatant. It's only been a while, and this aunt and the child in her aunt's belly have broken several times. I can't say it's all changed! ”
When the mother-in-law who spoke first heard this, she broke out in a cold sweat, "Oh, don't talk about this." There's a coffin in there! ”
"What are you afraid of, we're not wrong. I heard that the eldest lady has returned to her hometown? This Aunt Lan is also the daughter of the county official's family, and she is from a similar background to our eldest lady, so how can she act like nothing else? Aunt Lan has been thinking about that little thing in this room all day long, can she really correct it in the future? Uncle doesn't care? ”
"You don't know this, listening to the people in the uncle's house, I haven't seen Aunt Lan so prodigal! I don't know, I thought she was born in a kiln! Confuse the uncle like that, what's not to do! Besides, Aunt Lan gave birth to the fourth young master and the seventh girl, and she has both children and daughters, and she has taken up all her body and appearance, no matter how she tosses, I don't think the uncle can ...... her like this."
The two mothers-in-law walked away while talking, and the three of them sighed, Helian Tao secretly thought that in the future, he would definitely put an end to such rights and wrongs in his back house, and this woman was really terrible to chew on the long and short things. Thinking that there must be a powerful housewife, I subconsciously looked at Li Shuci's back.
Li Shuci had already touched the door, the door was not locked, it opened quietly, and there was no imaginary creaking sound, it seems that there are often people on the door shaft oiled. Helian Tao took out the fire fold and lit a candle and put it in the corner, so that the candle could fold as little light as possible, Shen's room was simple but very elegant, there was a jade bead curtain hanging between the inner room and the outer room, and when it was lifted, there was a crisp and slight jingle sound. There are some quaint and atmospheric small objects on several couches. In the east direction of the house, there are incense burners, Buddha beads and other objects on the Buddha shrine. "Let's split up."
The three of them groped softly around with a calm breath, swept around the corners, and found nothing. Mu Yun stood in the middle of the room and asked, "What are we looking for?" ”
Li Shuci whispered, "How many pairs of eyes have we stared at the mansion, and we have never seen the Shen family go out, don't you think it's strange?" I wonder if there's a secret passage or something. Her voice was very soft, and the sentences seemed to come out with breath, Helian Tao was afraid that there was some secret weapon in the room, and he was very close to her, and he seemed to feel the warmth she poured out.
"Is there really nothing here? Could it be that there is a secret passage in my grandfather's place, could it be in the Empty Mountain Pavilion? "It is inevitable that the big family will have some secret rooms and secret passages that no one knows, but only the head of the family will know that she has never paid attention to these things in her previous life, so she has no clue now.
Helian Tao said: "I don't think the Shen family will let Li Yu know everything, it shouldn't be." ”
Li Shuci carefully looked at the part of each cabinet against the wall, and then came to the Buddha shrine. "Ordinary people don't move Buddhist shrines at will, do they?"
"Well, such a big disrespectful act, people who believe in Buddhism will not move, and most of those who don't believe in it are taboo." Helian Tao replied behind her.
"Look, this incense ash." The burned incense ash should fall into the incense burner, but a lot of incense ash is scattered on the Buddha shrine. "There is so much incense ash on the Buddha beads, isn't this unusual?" As she spoke, she groped around the Buddha shrine and reached out to gently push the base of the compassionate Bodhisattva. With a click, the entire Buddha shrine trembled, and it turned half a circle, and part of it sank into the wall, revealing a man-wide hole in the wall.
Li Shuci stepped back, stepping on Helian Tao's feet, she subconsciously lowered her head, between the lightning and flint, a figure suddenly appeared in the crack of the wall, the cold light of the long sword soared, and the sword qi pierced the muscles and bones. The man held a sword in one hand and approached Helian Tao's face door, and with the other hand hooked into a claw, he stretched out to Li Shuci, about to pull her into the dark passage.
"Be careful!" Helian Tao snorted in a low voice, if he made a move to block the sword, Li Shuci would fall into the hands of that person, Helian Tao gritted his teeth, and could only turn around and switch positions with Li Shuci, the back door was wide open, and the sword stabbed Heliantao's back without pause. All he heard was a 'poof', and the dull pain of flesh and blood spread throughout his body.
When the man saw that he had stabbed Helian Tao, not only did he not retreat, but instead used his wrist to stab Helian Tao in half. Everything happened too fast, but in the blink of an eye, Mu Yun rushed forward with an arrow step, pulled out the software on his waist, and violently pushed Helian Tao, freeing him from the opponent's sword momentum, and raised his sword diagonally, entangled with the man.
Li Shuci only then understood what was happening, under the faint candlelight, she could see Helian Tao's face was extremely bad, knowing that the sword was extremely badly injured, and hurriedly held him up, Helian Tao wanted to smile at her and make her feel at ease, but he coughed violently, and a mouthful of blood was spit on her shoulder.
The man was menacing, his moves were ruthless, and he attacked fiercely without saying a word, Mu Yun couldn't resist it at all, and a few back and forth had already fallen into the downwind, Helian Tao looked back, nudged Li Shuci, pulled out the long sword at his waist, and raised his breath to meet it. Li Shuci hurriedly reached out to pull, but only had time to grab his little finger, and the finger came out of her hand, cold as ice.
The two of them resisted together, barely making a draw with the man, Li Shuci secretly shouted that it was bad, if this continues, all three of them will be finished! The candle flame had been extinguished in the strong wind of the three of them. She could only see the shadows of the three of them, churning in the small space, she concentrated her eyes on that person, and was shocked, that person, not to mention the shadow, was turned into ashes, she could also recognize it!
Her brain turned rapidly, her voice was not high but she said quickly: "Shen Yuan, I didn't expect you to be the prince today, Empress Shen really planned to take away Chongnan Jiangshan, and hid in my Li family for seventeen years, killing the prince and killing Concubine De, your mother and son's methods are really ruthless!" Everything Li Shuci said in his mouth was an unspeakable secret, but Shen Yuan had a sneer on the corner of his mouth, he was not moved at all, his sword was clever, and one move was better than another!
Li Shuci was anxious, and said again: "Shen Yuan, don't be too happy, Empress Shen!" No! Or the princess of the previous dynasty! Her ultimate goal is not to put you on the throne at all, her purpose is to destroy Chongnan! And you're just a small part of her plan! Sooner or later, you'll also be a piece of fish on her chopping board. ”
Shen Yuan's face sank a little, but he was still unaffected by it. The offensive became more and more ruthless, as if Helian Tao and Mu Yun were the targets of venting. Li Shuci looked at Helian Tao's swaying figure from time to time, and the uncomfortable guilt in her heart almost burned her completely. She gritted her teeth and said, "Shen Yuan, do you know why I hate you so much? ”
Shen Yuan's hand was stunned, and hope suddenly surged up in Li Shuci's heart, "Do you know the relationship between you and me in my previous life?" The movements of the servants paused at the same time, but Helian Tao and Mu Yun reacted almost instantly, Li Shuci was attracting Shen Yuan's attention, Shen Yuan understood in his heart, but he couldn't control himself, and he was constantly distracted to listen to what Li Shuci said. Do you know that Li Shuqiao did not hesitate to kill my relatives and children, and wanted to marry you with all her heart. In this life, I will fulfill you! I have fulfilled you, but why have you not spared me? What about the sufferings I suffered in my previous life...... Shen Yuan, everything is predestined, either you die or I die! ”
"Shen Yuan, I used to pour out all my ......" Li Shuci's voice became smaller and smaller, as if muttering, and Shen Yuan's eyes frequently looked at her. I wanted to hear what she was saying.
"Shen Yuan, you have never been able to get a big position, don't be delusional! Want to know at whose hands you died in your previous life? Li Shuci suddenly said this loudly, Shen Yuan's breath suddenly became chaotic, Helian Tao saw the opportunity, the sword momentum forced him to stumble, Mu Yun suddenly turned around, kicked Shen Yuan into the wall hole, it was pitch black below, there seemed to be a long stone staircase, the servants heard the continuous collision sound below, Li Shuci hurriedly reached out and broke the base in the Buddhist shrine, the secret door clicked and started, and the wall closed and restored to its original state.
"Let's go!" As soon as Helian Tao was relieved, another mouthful of blood spurted out, Li Shuci's eyes were red, and he hurriedly pressed a handkerchief on the wound on his back, Mu Yun had already restored the room to its original state, and ripped off the hem of his skirt to wipe off the blood stains in the room. "Girl, you help the son of the world to go first, and I will ...... behind you"
Before the words fell, the three of them only heard a 'click' and turned back suddenly......
