Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Dark Grid
That night, Mo Fuluo carefully applied the ointment given by Shen Zhiyu to the scar. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
As soon as the ointment touched the scar, there was a refreshing coolness. Mo Fuluo just trembled with this rippling coolness, and there was a feeling of warmth from the scar. I couldn't help but reach out and touch it, it was still really warm, and I was sure it wasn't an illusion.
The warmth didn't go away immediately, but stayed like that for a while. Mo Fuluo took out a piece of gauze to wrap the scar and took off the coat he was wearing, leaving only a shirt.
After doing all this, Mo Fuluo just wanted to blow out the candle and go to bed, when he heard a knock on the door.
"Sister A, have you slept?"
When Mo Fuluo heard Yucui's voice, he couldn't help but stop blowing out the candle and replied: "Not yet, let's talk about something in the near future." ”
Yucui gently pushed open the door, glanced around to the side, and saw that there was still no one else, so she slowly leaned into the room, turned around and carefully closed the door.
Seeing that Yucui looked cautious and not as arrogant as usual, Mo Fulu vaguely felt that the girl surnamed Xu was going to say something important.
Could it be that Zuo Feng had an accident?
Who knew that after Yucui entered the house, she took it out of her sleeve and took the jade hairpin that Mo Fuluo gave her during the day.
"What's wrong?" Mo Fuluo's expression was unmoved, but he asked Yucui.
"Sister Ah Luo, I found that there is a secret compartment hidden in this jade hairpin." Yucui took the jade hairpin and shook it in front of Mo Fuluo's eyes, and Zhengse said.
"Huh?" Mo Fuluo couldn't help but shake his heart, and at this moment, several thoughts popped up.
It's not that she hasn't heard of some secrets that are passed on or hidden through some small things, but what secrets can this ordinary jade hairpin put on sale in small streets and alleys? Moreover, Mo Fuluo carefully recalled the expression and words of Yi Ze when he sent the jade hairpin, and did not find anything unusual. Yucui said that the dark grid, what is the dark grid?
Mo Fuluo couldn't help but be interested, his eyes picked, and motioned for Yucui to continue.
"Sister Ah Luo, have you forgotten, my family used to be in the jade business, although I am not good at craftsmanship, I have been exposed to it since I was a child, and I have a lot of research on jade jewelry and the like. At first, I just thought that this jade hairpin was exquisitely made, and although the texture was ordinary, it was not something I had never seen before, so I liked it. Yucui said slowly, not at all as frizzy as usual, but behaved extremely calmly at this time, she smacked her lips and continued: "After my sister gave me this jade hairpin, I was overjoyed, and I played with it in my hand for a long time, and it was also because I had some research on this jade, so I discovered the extremely clever hidden secret grid. ”
At this point, Mo Fuluo understood the reason why Yucui came to find him.
However, even if this jade hairpin is found to have some secret grid or something, there is no need to be so cautious, come to her in the middle of the night, isn't there any secret hidden in it?
Thinking of this, Mo Fulu's always cold face couldn't help but be a little nervous, and even his voice was deliberately lowered, and he hurriedly asked Yucui: "Could it be that you found something from inside?" ”
"Yes!" Yucui shouted, then suddenly covered her mouth and lowered her voice, leaned in front of Mo Fuluo, and said softly: "Originally, there was no fuss about an inconspicuous jade hairpin with a dark grid, but I found an inconspicuous mark outside the dark grid, and I saw this mark when I was a child. ”
"What imprint?" Mo Fuluo also became nervous.
"It is the mark of the ancient secrets of the neighboring countries."
"Ancient secrets? Are you sure? ”
"Yes!" Yucui nodded solemnly, and explained: "Because when I was a child, my father used to make jade for a wealthy merchant of Gu Mi, and Gu Mi people are used to carving seals on jade, and I happened to see those marks, because the mark is very special, I am very impressed. It's the same as the mark on this jade hairpin. Yucui's tone was very affirmative.
Gumi borders Daji and was originally just a small country. The two countries have been getting along well for many years, but in recent years, as the ancient secret forces have become stronger and stronger, there is a faint momentum that cannot be suppressed, so that the two countries have frequent fights and relations have become more and more bad. Mo Fulu's understanding of ancient secrets had been heard from his father a few times, and the last time he heard about ancient secrets was the extremely vicious poison that poisoned the black-clothed assassin some time ago-Qing Yangsan.
A fierce color flashed in Mo Fuluo's eyes, but the next moment the corners of his mouth were replaced by a sneer. His eyes looked at the jade hairpin in Yucui's hand, and he couldn't help but light up.
"Did you open the dark compartment, but did you find something inside?"
"This ......" Yucui's tone changed, and she replied to Mo Fuluo with an apologetic smile, pursed her lips and said displeasefully: "It's a pity that my skills are not good, and I can't open this secret grid after trying many methods......"
"Is there any other way? Or is there one that someone else can open? ”
Yucui listened to Mo Fuluo's words, and did not answer immediately, a thoughtful look hung on her face, and after a while, she said in a deep voice to Mo Fuluo as if she had made up her mind: "Sister Aluo, in fact, although my family has fallen, I have left a book of KitKat, which should record the method of unraveling this secret grid. It's just that I hid the book in my old home. ”
When Mo Fuluo heard Yucui say this, she couldn't help but think of the mansion she saw with Yucui two days ago, which has now become a "Luo Mansion".
"Where are you hiding?"
"At that time, my father asked me to hand over the book of KitKat before he died, and then the house was sold, and I suddenly had no place to live, and I knew that I might be on the street next, and I was afraid that the booklet would be lost on my body, so I buried it in a hidden corner of the backyard before leaving, thinking that one day I would find an opportunity to find it again."
When Mo Fuluo heard this, he couldn't help but look at Yucui twice.
The Yucui in front of her is still the little girl with red lips and white teeth, big eyes and clever eyes, but when she talks about what her father left behind, she still reveals a deep sadness. Xu is reminiscing, and it is inevitable that the heart is unbearable.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" If Yucui had told her about this earlier, whether it was because she wanted to find a way to unlock the secret grid, she would have helped Yucui retrieve that meaningful booklet.
"Didn't I never find a chance?" Yucui regained her smile again, and there was no abnormality in her eyes. But how could Mo Fuluo, who really thought in her heart, not understand it.
couldn't help but think of the scene when Yucui took herself to see the "Luo Mansion" that day, maybe Yucui wanted to help her by herself, but in the end she was embarrassed to speak.
"Yucui, I'm not an outsider. Whatever you do in the future, tell me. Do you understand? ”
Mo Fulu's expression was very cold at the moment, and his tone was also very serious, but in Yucui's ears, it was more beautiful than the heart-to-heart words.
Cold on the outside and hot on the inside, her sister Ah Luo has actually been a very warm person.
