31. Temple Corridor

Cliff hid in the cupboard until it was completely dark outside. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

He jerked the awkward shirt off his body, and the cabinet kept "creaking" until it was finally cleaned up, and he pushed the door from the scroll and jumped out, threw the gray shirt back in his hand, and closed the door softly.

Not far in front is the second floor where the girls went up just now, and there is no light at all.

The wind blew all the way from the invisible place and slowly disappeared at the end of the corridor.

On the second floor, there is a wide corridor with high beams and a large wooden floor underfoot, which will make you feel if you don't pay attention.

There were closed doors one after another on both sides, and there was no light shining through the cracks in the doors, and it was terriblely quiet.

He walked along the corridor all the way forward, who knew that there was a dead end at the end, and it was also a dead end when he turned back, except for the stairs he had just come up, and there were closed stone walls at both ends of the road.

He could only try to push the door next to him, but it was locked from the inside, and there was not even a seam.

When I pushed it down my right hand to the fifth, the door creaked open, and a gust of wind swept through the corridor with a "whirring" sound, and then bounced back with the door panel.

Seeing that it was about to close, he took a step forward and stuck his hand on the door frame, and with a "boom", he suddenly sensed that someone was looking at him in a certain direction.

What a normal response should look like, no matter what, be foolproof.

It was an idea that had been completed in a very short period of time, and he stomped his foot as it stomped and shoved his fist into his mouth as if it really hurt.

When he pushed his shoulder against the door and got in, the eyes were silently one step closer.

Several people flashed at the end, and the sound of girls giggling could be heard in the distance.

He haphazardly pulled out half a strip of cloth and wrapped it around his hand, following the place where there was a sound.

"Sister Yue, I'm still not going......"

"Oh, look at you, with a depressed face, finally no one is staring at us, let's go relax together!"

"Just come back early, if there's anything unhappy, just tell us about it......"

The cliff poked its head out of the corner slightly.

In the distance, a slender girl was surrounded in the middle, her slender eyebrows and eyes drooping, and two fingers tugging at the corners of her clothes back and forth.

She bit her lip: "I'm still not going, my sister is still inside...... I can't rest assured. ā€

"Qiu'er, don't be like this, Master Mu has said it, this is only temporary, you see so many people outside......"

Several girls echoed back and forth, and Jieya was listening carefully on the surface, but in his heart he secretly noticed that there was already a person standing behind him.

There was a sudden "crackle" in his ear, and the man lit half of the candle in his hand.

He jerked back a step.

It was an old woman, with gray hair, her face was covered with wrinkles of different shades, and a thin hand reached out to grab the placket of his clothes, and the whole person looked very old, but her expression revealed alertness.

Not this person! The eyes just now were clearly not the person in front of them.

Jie Ya could only move his expression, waiting for the old woman to speak first.

"How did you get in!"

Her shriveled voice was equally uncomfortable.

Jie Ya pretended not to know how to answer, and the girls all gathered around when they heard the movement, and one by one respectfully restrained their postures, and bent down to her while calling "Wu Ma".

For a while, everyone looked at him with defensive eyes, and Grandma Wu's hand holding the placket of his clothes exerted a little more force: "If you don't say anything more, I'll call the people from the Consulate in." ā€

"Don't! Grandma Wu, it's all a misunderstanding......" he hurriedly smiled bitterly, "I came to pass the word for Lord Xiao, but I couldn't find the way." ā€

Grandma Wu was slightly stunned, and slowly let go of her hand.

Jie Ya looked at her and nodded without embarrassment, knowing that she was not deceived by her words, but somehow she still fully cooperated: "So that's the case, Lord Xiao is still satisfied?" ā€

Jie Ya scratched his head with a look of agreement, and continued to say after the previous words: "Lord Xiao said that thanks to Lord Mu's willingness to help, it would be great for Shangshentang to show up, I hope that tomorrow Lord Mu can say a few more words, and he will also ask Wangshu to send some more people over to ensure everyone's safety." ā€

Grandma Wu nodded tremblingly again: "Lord Xiao thinks about the people, we should also do our best, and I will pass the word on to Lord Mu...... Qiu'er, you send him out, can't you walk around in the deep hall...... And a few of you, give me back! ā€

These girls waited for Grandma Wu to turn around and disappear, and then muttered a few words and left stupidly, leaving the one named Qiu'er and Jieya standing in place.

Still with her head buried and looking timid, she took a step forward and stretched out her hand towards the door: "Please follow me!" ā€

"I said, you don't want to play with everyone, you just want to sneak inside by yourself to have a look, right?"

Qiu'er raised her head sharply when she heard this, she was so frightened that she couldn't close her mouth, and the shock on her face didn't take long to turn into grievances.

She staggered and stomped her foot, and began to beg him with a cry: "Don't tell Master Mu, please!" She's going to kill me...... I saw it all, the guy who slipped in last time was covered in blood when he was dragged out......"

Jie Ya looked at her whimpering, and deliberately patted her shoulder angrily and funny: "You are so cowardly, and you still want to sneak in?" ā€

She wiped her face and lowered her voice: "I...... My sister is still inside, something must have happened! Or...... Otherwise, how could it be sealed! It's been so long, and no one has come out at all! ā€

"I heard there were dead people inside......"

"You've heard that, too!"

She had a frightened expression on her face, her hands were tightly clenched around her face, her fingertips were about to sink into the flesh, and tears kept rolling out, and it didn't take long for five neat handprints to appear, still with black green.

"Well, I'm curious about what's going on inside, if you'll help me......"

She immediately guessed what Jieya wanted to do, and shook her head vigorously: "No! No way! Grandma Wu asked me to send you out, you don't want to play any tricks! ā€

"That's good!" He suddenly stepped past Qiu'er and strode in the direction of Grandma Wu's departure, "I'd better tell the above!" ā€

Qiu'er then cried even more, and one of her heels jumped up and hugged Jieya's legs, regardless of whether anyone heard it or not, and shouted intermittently, "Please......

Seeing that she was gasping and couldn't even say anything, Jieya couldn't bear to continue teasing her, so she could only bend down and sit on the ground with her, patting her back while helping to pat her back, and said, "If you take me over, I'll help you find your sister." ā€

She didn't say anything, her slender eyes narrowed in suspicion.

Jie Ya further persuaded: "You don't have to go in, if I am discovered, you just have to say that you have sent me out, what do you think?" ā€

Qiu'er hesitated for a while, and finally asked, "Why do you have to go in?" ā€

"I'm looking for someone, so I have to go."

Qiu'er looked at Jieya's extremely solemn appearance, bit her lip and made up her mind, and then took his hand and stood up: "My sister and I look a little similar, and there is a black mole on the corner of her mouth, which is easy to recognize...... You come with me! ā€

The two of them turned left and backward into the side road, and Jieya kept an eye on the people standing in the darkness in the distance.

The figure kept holding her arm and holding the grandmother next to her, waiting for her to speak respectfully.

Wu Ma raised her hand and pointed in the direction where Jieya left: "Go!" Be careful......"
