"It's the smell of Chinese motherwort, at least fifty years of ......" The phoenix eyes exposed outside the black veil were full of surprise and joy, Ruan Jiuwu couldn't wait to flash into the stone gate, and slowly walked forward in the dark corridor. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The basement is several feet deep underground, and the walls on both sides of the corridor are made of whole stones, which are impermeable to the wind all year round, and protect those precious treasures very well. The basement here looks no different from other small warehouses in the house from the outside, if it weren't for Lin Yuqing who brought her here once when she was a child, she wouldn't have imagined that there was a hole inside.

Halfway through the corridor, she gradually adjusted to the darkness around her, and began to speed up her pace.

It didn't take long for a dazzling light source to appear in front of me.

As she progressed, the light source grew larger and larger, until she stepped in and realized that it was coming from a hollow window in a pale brown wooden door.

If memory serves, behind this door is a secret room for storing medicinal herbs.

But why is there a light inside? She remembered that the last time she came, it was pitch black, and she brought flint and steel with her.

Ruan Jiuwu approached the window on the door suspiciously, there was nothing unusual in her sight, and she was about to poke her head in to take a look inside, but a handful of white powder suddenly rose from under the door, and rushed into her nose with unmistakable accuracy.

"Drugged—" She frowned, quickly realizing the danger of the situation, and wanted to turn away.

But under the effect of the drug, everything in front of her began to twist and rotate, and she couldn't even walk in a straight line.

The wooden door of the secret room opened, and a familiar voice faintly came, "Don't faint yet?" Add some more medicine! ”

As soon as the words fell, she saw a burly figure walking in front of her, followed by a large amount of powder pouring into her nasal cavity.

The images she could still capture grew blurrier and smaller until they were plunged into complete darkness, darkness like despair descending on them.

I don't know how long she was in the dark, but a voice suddenly popped into her head.

No, no, she has to wake up, in case the guard at the door wakes up and she's still dizzy, she'll definitely be discovered!

Then Daddy would have hated her even more......

She struggled to open her eyes, but her eyelids were like three mountains, and she couldn't lift them.

Ruan Jiuwu calmed down, and used the strong thoughts in her heart to break free from the shackles of darkness, and after a while, she finally felt the temperature around her again.

She breathed a sigh of relief, but the good times were short-lived, and soon a basin of cold water extinguished the hope in her heart—her eyes were tightly wrapped in strips of cloth, and her limbs were firmly bound to the stakes, and she looked like a fish.

Now in this situation, the fool knows that someone must have caused it on purpose, but who can know about her action, she obviously didn't tell anyone.

"Who is it?" Ruan Jiuwu asked in a cold voice.

"Ahem."

No one responded to her, but a weak cough could be heard not far from the left front.

This cough sounds familiar......

"Lin is gentle......?"

"Hehe," the other party didn't seem to expect her to guess so quickly, and couldn't help but chuckle, "Sister, look at you, you're obviously very smart." ”

"Sure enough, it's you!"

"That's right, besides me, who else in this mansion knows that Yuehe is not in good health, and besides me, who else will tell you that the basement is not well guarded recently?" Lin's soft mocking voice came faintly, like a slap in the face of Ruan Jiuwu.

"So you deliberately brought me over......" Ruan Jiuwu bit her lip hard, blaming herself for her hindsight.

"Hehe," Lin Qingrou chuckled again, and said in an aggrieved tone, "Sister, I'm not framing you, I'm just ...... It's just something that guards me. ”

"Now that your face has been torn, please make your words clearer."

"Ouch, my sister is angry?" Lin said softly, "Ada, don't let my sister dissipate her anger, I don't like her tone very much." ”

"Yes, miss." It turned out that there were other people in this house.

Ruan Jiuwu restlessly leaned his body against the wooden stake behind him, listening carefully to the sounds around him.

The sound of footsteps gradually approached her, stopping three feet in front of her, and then a sharp wind came from her ears, accompanied by the sound of the whip cracking the flesh on her body.

"Ahh

She gasped for breath and hung from the stake with the hemp rope on her wrist.

"Sister, are you deflated?" Lin asked softly and softly, but the innocent voice sounded as vicious as a snake and scorpion.

"You...... Why is this happening to me? Ruan Jiuwu gritted her teeth and asked.

Although they used to live under the same roof, they did not have much in common. The words they had said for more than ten years could be counted on two hands, and she had never realized that Lin Qingrou had such a great hatred for her.

"Alas, it's not because my sister is a smart person who always does foolish things."

"I'll say it again, you explain it to me."

"Smack!" Another whip was struck, just crossing over the wound.

"Sister, I will warn you again, if you don't want to suffer from this flesh and skin, just speak well." Lin got up softly and walked slowly to Ruan Jiuwu, and said with a smile, "My sister wasn't so fierce when she was in front of Guo Gongzi." ”

"Guo Gongzi...... You mean Yeche? ”

"Yeche?" This time, Lin Qing's face was surprised, "Isn't the son who raised the injury in your house surnamed Guo Mingzao?" ”

"Hehe," Ruan Jiuwu paused, endured the sharp pain of the abdominal tear, and chuckled, "It seems that he thinks you are noisy." ”

The surroundings fell silent for a moment, and Lin muttered softly in disbelief, "How could this be...... Night......

"You're arresting me...... Is it because of Yeche? ”

"yes!"

"What do you think I have to do with him?"

"Hahahaha," Lin Qingsoft suddenly laughed out loud, completely missing the image of everyone's usual ladies. She stepped forward and pinched Ruan Jiuwu's chin fiercely, "Yes, my good sister, you don't know how jealous I am of you." You can see him every day, you can live with him, you can be rescued by him, and you can even be held in his arms! ”

"In your arms? How do you know? "Did she also see the scene where the men in black attacked that day?

"Sister, originally I made a deal with you sincerely. You give me the opportunity to get along with him, and I will deliver the herbs to you on time. Lin paused softly, "I didn't deliver the medicine late, I went there on the day you were attacked, but what did you let me see?" “

Ruan Jiuwu knew in her heart that she had seen all the scenes that day.

"He will be nervous to protect you, he will hold you lovingly, and he will look at you affectionately!" Lin Qingrou couldn't wait to crush her chin, "Ruan Jiuwu, my mother is right, you are the same as your short-lived mother, you are a vixen who can seduce people!" ”
