Chapter 236: Abnormal Movement
The night is as cool as water, and the stars dot the night sky like a curtain, and the stars are shining brightly.
Le Yu and Le Xi walked side by side, and Qiu Ju and Shen Zhi lit lanterns for them left and right. The dim light didn't really reflect the looks of the two.
"Why did you become so hasty, and Lu Yu is going to go on the expedition, this battlefield is ......" Le Yu whispered to Le Xi, and the two walked around the road through the garden.
To the right of the two of them is the sparkling lotus pond, at this time the lotus has gone, and the lake is very lonely.
Le Xi couldn't help but stop, stopping to look at the surface of the lake reflecting the starlight, the stars and moon waves appeared in her eyes.
She also learned at night that the marriage was in advance, and part of the reason was that Lu Yu was going to go on the expedition.
When she first heard it, she was also heartbroken, but after a while, this apprehension dissipated again.
Now that you've decided to entrust them, why don't you choose to trust them?
She was confident that he would return safely.
Thinking about it, Le Xi's eyes were full of soft light, and he smiled firmly at Le Yu, which was more dazzling than the stars in the sky.
"I believed him, he said he would protect me, so he wouldn't put himself in danger. Moreover, I also believe in my father, and since my father can agree, he will definitely not harm me. ”
Le Yu looked at Le Xi, who was smiling brightly, and was in a trance for a moment.
Believe it?
Because of trust, she was so indifferent, and she didn't even ask her father why she responded after knowing what happened?!
Le Yu pondered, a smile spread on his face, and then squatted down, and said in Le Xi's surprised gaze: "Come up, I will practice in advance how to carry my sister on the sedan chair!" ”
Hear the words. Le Xi was stunned, then laughed, and without twisting, he directly leaned on Le Yu's back and shouted, "Brother, come on." I have to carry it to Xinyuan Courtyard in one breath! ”
Le Yu also laughed, and replied loudly that he was holding on to it, and he really trotted up with Le Xi on his back. The laughter of silver bells spilled all the way.
In the backlight, which the two of them did not notice, a slender figure stood for a long time, listening to their conversations and watching their every move.
"Big girl, the night is cool and humid. You'd better go back to the yard and rest, in case you get cold, it's not a joke. Dongling's voice came out faintly, and she appeared behind her silently like a ghost.
Yi Niang, who was alone, was so frightened that her face changed suddenly. But before she turned around, she had a timid expression again. "Dongling?! It's so good that I'm lost. I saw the second brother and the third sister just now, and I wanted to come forward to talk but I was afraid of disturbing, and then I came back to my senses and both of them left. Otherwise. What should I do!! ”
Dongling people are the winter character in their names. At this time, her face was cold, and her whole person was like a cold winter day.
"Don't go too far for the big girl to take a walk after dinner, the slave and maid can't accompany her all the time, in case you get to a remote uninhabited courtyard, the slave and maid are really afraid that they won't be found."
Dong Ling's words made Yi Niang's eyebrows jump, and her eyes were hidden in exploration, secretly looking at her expression. I panicked in my heart, thinking about whether the sentence of the uninhabited courtyard meant something, or casually mentioned it!
But. Her inquiry didn't give her the slightest answer, and Dong Ling only had this expression from then on. Yi Niang felt that she should be too careful. Calmed down and returned to Lancui Temple under her guidance.
A moment after the two of them left, a white shadow swept down from the branch and flew out of the Hou Mansion.
That night, after the sound of the third watch, a shadow flashed in the dark courtyard of Lancui Courtyard, and he jumped down to the well in the courtyard.
The moment the figure disappeared, another figure appeared at the well.
This well has been filled, and this group of people has dug it again silently?!
Dongling has been guarding for these days, and finally noticed Yi Niang's abnormal movements, and letting her go to the garden was also deliberate. Unexpectedly, there is a surprising discovery.
After glancing at the wellhead, Dong Ling looked at the subordinate room that was very close to this side, and his eyes were full of sarcasm. It's ridiculous to drug her who is used to poison!
When a sarcastic smile also rose on Dongling's lips, he also jumped down the well,
The bottom of the well was very dark, and after a short period of adaptation, Dongling began to walk along the wall with bated breath.
Judging by the dryness of the soil she came into contact with, the well had not been re-excavated recently, and after walking for a while, she realized that there was something wrong with the air flow inside.
There is convection, and it is multi-directional convection, and the previous intelligence is obviously a single secret channel!
Puzzled, Dong Ling hesitated for a while and then took a fire fold from her sleeve and blew it up, and with the light, her steps were faster. At the bend after walking less than a hundred steps, she was surprised to find that the secret passage actually had a fork!
By the light, she took five steps at both entrances and looked at the layers of soil on the walls. It was found that the passage in the middle was formed for a shorter period of time than the one on the left, and the moisture of the dirt on the surface was not completely dissipated.
Which way did that Yi Niang go?!
Dong Ling lowered his head and tried to find traces from the ground to continue tracking, but found that the other party was very careful and did not even leave shallow footprints.
It's a good job?!!
A thought flashed through his mind, and Dongling did not continue to move forward, but quickly returned to the exit. On the way back, he even erased his footprints.
Returning to the surface from the well, Dong Ling quickly left the Lancui Courtyard, and went to the uninhabited courtyard that Lu Yan had been guarding with light skills.
Her sudden appearance startled Lu Yan, who was holding a dog's tail grass, and said in a low voice: "Why are you here?!" ”
Dong Ling glanced at him and looked at the dark room, where there was no sound. Like the silence of this dark night.
"The secret passage is open again, the Hou Mansion has not moved, and the entrance and exit of the outer courtyard yesterday were explored yesterday, and it was sealed. That Yi Niang found out the news that her master was going to get married ahead of schedule today, and she shouldn't be able to hold it back. It is estimated that the person will also receive the message. So my first instinct was to come,"
When Lu Yan heard this, the grass in his mouth fell out of surprise as he opened his mouth, and then a pair of eagle eyes shone in the dark. He stared at the room and said, "Absolutely no one has been in or out!" ”
The mechanism in this room is from the inside out, and he will definitely find it when someone comes out of the house.
"That Yi Niang has only been in for a short time, so don't worry! You continue to guard, Lingxi has returned to the Guogong Mansion, and I found that I should report to the master in person. Don't delay things! ”
Lu Shi nodded, his eyes never left the house, and Dong Ling hurried to the Protector's Mansion.
And just as Dong Ling thought, one of the secret passages did lead to the underground of the courtyard she had just left, and extended to another place.
Not long after she left, a figure flashed in the night, pushing open the door of the room.
Lu Yan neatly climbed to the roof, silent like a cat, and saw the figure disappear into the secret door that had not been opened for a long time in the broken tile hole.
I really guessed it right by Dong Ling, their idle days are coming to an end!!
But it's too early to finish the errand, the heroine marries into the Protectorate Mansion, and the person he thinks about will also return to the house!! He can't waste his time here anymore!!
Lu Yan thought about it, and suddenly he was full of energy, and he lay on the roof more and more lifelessly, monitoring every move inside! (To be continued......)
