Chapter 113: The Mysterious Old Woman
Lu Qinghuan was uncomfortable at the moment, the symptoms of wind chill were getting worse and worse, and she felt that her legs were like being filled with lead, and she was so heavy that she could hardly take a step. There was also a burst of soreness on his body, and the whole person seemed to be floating in mid-air, floating and floating, without landing.
After she and Helan Xuanyi separated, they walked slowly all the way, and encountered several forks in the middle, so she had to choose according to her intuition.
However, in order to avoid getting lost, Lu Qinghuan would make a mark on the side of the wall every time he walked to a fork, but I don't know if this mark will be discovered by Helan Xuanyi.
She sighed and pressed her temples, which were pounding suddenly, which made her uncomfortable.
Lu Qinghuan bypassed a fork in the road, walked for a while, and suddenly saw a bright light in front of her, she was overjoyed, and hurriedly accelerated her pace and walked over.
But just as she was about to step into the brightly lit room, the stone under her feet suddenly loosened, and before she could react, the whole person fell.
"Qinghuan!"
Pei Yuan didn't expect that as soon as he stepped into this bright room, he saw Lu Qinghuan walking slowly from the opposite door.
He was overjoyed in his heart, and he opened his mouth to call her, but before the smile appeared and the words didn't have time to speak, he saw Lu Qinghuan fall into the hole that suddenly appeared on the bottom of his feet and disappeared in front of his eyes.
Pei Yuan was startled, and flew quickly towards the place where Lu Qinghuan disappeared. Before he could get closer, a stone slab suddenly fell from the door, completely isolating him from Lu Qinghuan.
Anger made his feelings a little difficult to control, Pei Yuan gritted his teeth and looked at the stone slab in front of him, wanting to smash it with his palm, but this time, no matter how hard he tried, he slapped his palm with blood, but Shimen didn't move.
"If you want to break the door made of dark stone, you should save it!"
An old female voice slowly sounded, wafting through the empty room, making it impossible to discern the source of the sound.
"Who are you?"
"How? Look at the beloved. How does it feel to disappear from your face? ”
Pei Yuan frowned, withdrew his bloody palm, and casually ripped off a strip of cloth from the placket. Wrap the injured hand around a few times.
"What do you want to do?"
"Haha, if you want to know, just follow me......" The voice suddenly laughed wildly and drifted away.
Pei Yuan didn't think about it, and immediately quickly followed, passing through another door in the room. Chase after the man.
There were many twists and turns along the way, because the terrain was unfamiliar, and the secret passage was very dark, Pei Yuan almost lost it several times, but he could always find the traces of the mysterious person not far from him.
Obviously, she was leading Pei away somewhere.
Finally, when the mysterious man disappeared again, Pei Yuan found a stone cave with lights on.
Unlike the corridors and secret chambers seen before, there are no stone bricks in the cave. It looks more like a natural underground pothole.
Although he was led by the nose by the mysterious man along the way and took many detours, Pei Yuan was very sure that the mysterious man was going down with him, and the place where these secret passages finally led was this cave, which looked a little gloomy.
He walked slowly into the cave, and saw that the cave was separated by a bottomless pool, and on top of the pool, there was a suspension bridge made of ropes and bamboo.
There are many torches hanging on the stone walls around it. The light of the fire, which is bright and dim, makes this cave look even more terrifying.
And the mysterious man who had been hiding his traces was standing at the other end of the bridge with a mocking smile on his face. Staring at Pei Yuan like a poisonous snake.
Unexpectedly, the person who played Pei Yuan and the others around was an old woman with snow-white hair and wrinkles.
The old woman dragged Lu Qinghuan, who was already unconscious, in her hands, stared at Pei Yuan coldly, and said coldly: "Come here." ”
Pei Yuan's gaze fell on Lu Qinghuan, and the deep luster in his eyes slowly flowed. Without speaking, Yiyan walked forward and stepped onto the drawbridge.
"Stop!"
The old woman suddenly spoke, she stretched out her thin and pale hand, and pointed to the suspension bridge shaking at Pei Yuan's feet, "Stand there, don't move again, or I'll break her neck." ”
Pei Yuan gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, until his palms were pinched out by his round nails, and the tingling sensation came, he held back the anger in his heart and stared at the old woman expressionlessly, "Who are you?" What do you want? ”
The old woman laughed again, and after laughing, her expression suddenly changed, and she said as if crying: "I'm just a poor person...... The family is ruined, and the family business is guarded......"
As she spoke, her expression suddenly became resentful, glaring at Pei Yuan's eyes, as if she wanted to devour him alive, "It's all you greedy people!" In order to snatch the heirloom of our Bai family, I actually killed people and sold goods, I want to kill all of you and avenge my husband and my child! ”
Pei Yuan frowned slightly, and looked at the old woman carefully, looking crazy, obviously a little stunned because of the tragic annihilation.
Seeing that a few blushes appeared on Lu Qinghuan's pale face, Pei Yuan's heart sank slightly, and Lu Qinghuan's poison seemed to be heavier......
"What the hell do you want?"
The old woman stopped crying, her expression changed again and again, and she laughed: "You let me taste life and death, I want you to taste this pain too!" ”
After speaking, she suddenly waved the sleeves of her robe, and the brazier with a wooden frame next to her lit up with a "bang", and Pei Yuan saw clearly that there was a shelf standing next to the brazier, and on the shelf was Helan Xuanyi, who was taken away with Lu Qinghuan.
Helan Xuanyi looked very wolf at the moment, the green silk was scattered, and his fair cheeks were stained with stains.
The old woman stretched out her finger to the void a little, Helan Xuanyi seemed to have been hit by something, snorted, woke up slowly, saw the situation in front of her, and suddenly panicked.
"Pei Yuan? You...... Hurry up and save Qinghuan......"
Pei Yuan was silent, he knew that the old woman had arrested the two of them at the moment, not just to blackmail herself, I was afraid that her real purpose was still to come.
At this time, the old woman took out a bottle from her sleeve, shook it, and snorted: "This is the antidote to the spring twilight, if you make me happy, this antidote will be given to you." ”
The spring twilight that the old woman said in her mouth is the poison in Lu Qinghuan's body.
Pei Yuan stared at the dark and rough small bottle in her hand, his pupils shrank violently, and he asked sharply, "What do you want me to do?" ”
"Hah! Of course it is......" The old woman brushed the hair between her forehead, revealing half of her ugly face like a ghost, and her tone was cold: "Kill him!" ”
Pei Yuan trembled, followed the direction of the old woman's finger, looked at Helan Xuanyi on the shelf, and said angrily: "Impossible! ”
"If you don't do it, I'll throw this medicine bottle into the deep pool," the old woman fiddled with the bottle in her hand and smiled: "The antidote to spring twilight, there is only the last one, if you throw it down, your sweetheart will festered and die in less than three days!" Do you really, don't you have to think about it anymore? (To be continued.) )
