Chapter 242: It Must Be an Auditory Hallucination
Xuanyuan Hao glanced back, but didn't feel anything unusual in the side room.
I don't know where Qingqing's panic came from?
"Let's go." Xuanyuan Hao held Chu Yueqing's hand, and the two went back to Zhuxin Courtyard together.
At night, Chu Yueqing tossed and turned.
Where does the dark passage in the side room lead?
When did Xiao Dong build a dark passage in the side room?
She remembered that when she had just married into the palace, the secret passage had been completely there.
Then, Xiao Dong should have built the Heavenly Secret Dao when she knew that she was going to marry Xuanyuan Hao. However, when the old emperor decreed the marriage, the wedding date was set for a short period of three months.
Three months' time...
Three months?
How did Xiao Dong quietly build this secret passage in three months?
It's just about finding the right location, planning, preparing, it's much more than that...
Deeply puzzled, Chu Yueqing didn't sleep well all night.
The next day, after Xuanyuan Hao went out, Chu Yueqing ran to the side room alone.
It was still deserted and empty, but the side room was much brighter during the day, the emerald green leaves swayed in the warm summer breeze, and the morning sun was full of sprinkling on the courtyard, bringing a room of brilliance.
Chu Yueqing looked at Xiao Dongliang's room, and said secretly: "I really scared myself, it's obviously clean and tidy, and there is nothing..."
patting his chest, Chu Yueqing pushed open the door and walked in.
The furnishings in the room are still the same as when Xiao Dong was there. Chu Yueqing closed the door, and then cautiously walked towards the bed.
She remembered that the mechanism of the secret passage was at the carved wooden stake in front of the bed.
Chu Yueqing walked over and began to grope around on the carved wooden stakes.
The hollow carving on the wooden stake is a rich peony flower. The petals are numerous and layered. Chu Yueqing looked carefully and couldn't help but marvel at the exquisiteness of Daqi wood craftsmanship.
But... Now is not the time for her to sigh, finding out the location of the organ is the point.
The whole stake, without the slightest singularity. In addition to this multi-flower. The rest of the stake was smoother than her face. Remembering the location of Xiao Dong's approximate touch last time, Chu Yueqing could determine that the mechanism button was near this flower.
But where?
Chu Yueqing's eyes fell on these delicate and beautiful peony flowers, and he couldn't figure out for a while. She held out her hand. Tracing the carvings in each place with the tips of your fingers.
The carvings in each place are extremely careful, without a trace of superfluous edges and corners, and the application of vermilion lacquer is also very even, delicate and smooth. The saturation is high.
But she touched the pattern for a while, but she didn't find the slightest clue.
Is it that hard?
Xiao Dong's last time it seemed very simple, and she couldn't see Xiao Dong's operation clearly.
Where exactly? Where did she leak?
Chu Yueqing stood still and took a step back.
She remembered that Xiao Dong seemed to be standing in this position at that time, and it seemed that he just pressed on the stake casually...
… That's right, it's the stamens!
The stamens are in the middle, almost completely embedded in the stake. Chu Yueqing didn't care, and only paid attention to the texture of the petals. But when she was far away, the stamens were a little more concave than the petals around her.
She held out her hand. With a slight apprehension and excitement, I pressed it.
Sure enough, the stamen fell in the middle, and at the same time, Xiao Dong's bed opened downward, and the quilt and pillows on the bed fell into the dark passage.
Chu Yueqing was overjoyed, lifted his skirt and walked into the underground tunnel.
It was pitch black inside the dark passage, and the sudden darkness made Chu Yueqing a little uncomfortable, she closed her eyes and stood at the entrance of the stairs, and stood for a while before slowly opening her eyes and walking down towards the secret room of the secret passage.
In the secret room. It is still the same stone table and stone wall, and it is spacious like a room. On the other side, there is a wooden door. She walked over and gently pushed open the wooden door.
There is no light when the door is opened. It's still dark and there's no end in sight. Chu Yueqing turned around again, looked for the fire fold, and lit the oil lamp on the stone table.
Then, she slowly walked behind the door with the oil lamp.
Behind the door, there is a dark and narrow dark passage. In the dark passage, it is damp and stuffy.
Chu Yueqing carried his heart in the dark passage. Carrying the flickering oil lamp, step by step towards the narrower and narrower dark passage.
In the dark tunnel, from time to time, there is a cold liquid dripping downward, ticking... Tick...
Chu Yueqing lowered his head to protect the oil lamp, for fear that the oil lamp would be dripped by the liquid dripping from above.
I don't know how long I walked, but the dark passage seemed to have become a lot more spacious. Chu Yueqing sped up her walking speed, and after a quarter of an hour, she finally saw a glimmer of light, but at the same time it was another exam question.
There was a fork in the road ahead, one left in front and one right in front.
At this time, Chu Yueqing could no longer distinguish between east and west, north and south.
She paused for a moment at the fork in the road, then picked up a stone from the ground and sat down on the mark on the path from which she had come out.
"Go ahead to the left and see what's ahead."
This secret passage is the same as the dark passage when she came, black and boundless.
If it weren't for Chu Yueqing's experience of life and death early in the morning, he would not dare to wander here now.
I'm afraid I'd have run back outside a long time ago.
After walking for more than half an hour, when Chu Yueqing was already sore in her legs and feet, a secret door finally appeared in front of her.
It's just that this secret door feels a little familiar to her.
After thinking about it for a while, Chu Yueqing suddenly understood that this was the secret door in the Ou Mansion.
Is the secret passage of King Hao's Mansion actually connected to the secret passage of the European Mansion?
Hiding in the dark door, Chu Yueqing was a little confused for a while, why did she always have a bad premonition, and it seemed that something unexpected was about to happen.
"Don't think too much, it's hard to say that I didn't sleep well last night, and now I'm thinking about it!" Chu Yueqing shook his head and turned around to return to King Hao's Mansion.
At this time, the voice of Granny Jade came from her ears.
"No, Qinyu."
"Why not? Sister, you left the capital this time, I think it was for Brother Luo. Since you both remember each other, why not? ”
Chu Yueqing stood stiffly in the dark passage, his legs and feet paused, and he didn't dare to make a sound.
Sister?
Big Brother Luo?
Remember?
Chu Yueqing's ears sensitively grasped these keywords, isn't it that the master has been out for so long for her sweetheart?
And her master's sweetheart still has the word Luo in his name?
"Qin Yu, twenty years ago, we couldn't. Twenty years later, we still can't. He married a wife, I married, and I never had anything to do with it again. I've decided on these things a long time ago, so you don't have to persuade them anymore. ”
"How's that going?! You died after giving birth to Qing'er seventeen years ago, and now you are a new you. His princess also passed away a few years ago. Now that you are interested in each other, and you are alone, what cannot you be together? Sister, when did you become so hesitant!? ”
……
……
Chu Yueqing stood behind the secret door, like being struck by lightning, she just had... It's auditory hallucinations, right?
It must be an auditory hallucination! (To be continued.) )
