Chapter 035: Moths

Li Yan turned his head and glanced at her, turned around and helped Tong Xue up and carried it on his back again.

"Follow me." He looked down and said to the little girl, and walked forward.

Turning right out of the room, there was a long and narrow corridor, and a light shot down from the top of the corridor, illuminating the way forward for the two.

Crossing the corridor, the two walked into a wider room, and there was a staircase in the southeast corner of the room, Li Yan stepped on the stairs first, and turned back to remind her to pay attention to her steps.

Climb the stairs and you'll find the exit to the tunnel.

At this moment, Tong Shuang suddenly glanced back and down.

This staircase looks very high, and jumping from it will make you fall into a bloody blur, right? You're going to die, right?

Thinking like this, her hands turned into fists, and a layer of sweat oozed from her palms.

She raised her head and watched intently as Li Yan turned the head of a woodcarved lion head on the railing of the stairs to the back, and with a "squeak", the wall in front of the two slowly opened.

"Let's get out." Li Yan turned to her and said.

Tong Shuang nodded, took the lead and walked out, finding herself in a place that looked like a study.

"This is the side hall of Moro Hall, and it is also the place where I practice martial arts every day." Li Yan saw that she was a little at a loss, and couldn't help but explain.

Tong Shuang let out a soft "oh" to indicate that she understood.

When he bent down to put Tong Xue on the couch looking at the window, Tong Shuang suddenly said, "My father is the Marquis of Dingyuan, my sister and I accompanied my grandmother and mother to the temple today to offer incense, but I fell into the well, because I was afraid that my mother would accuse me of being naughty, so I never told my eldest brother."

Li Yan turned around and saw her with her head down, pulling the corners of her sleeves uneasily, looking like she had done something wrong and was waiting to be reprimanded.

"The girl from the Dingyuan Marquis's Mansion?" Li Yan's eyebrows involuntarily raised again.

is worthy of being born to the daughter of the Lu family.

His countenance changed for only a moment, and then he returned to normal.

"I'm guarding my sister here, and I'm asking my eldest brother to help me inform my grandmother." Tong Shuang's head lowered and deepened, and his voice was like a mosquito.

Li Yan couldn't help but wonder, did she often cause trouble at home, and after causing trouble, she made a pitiful appearance in order to win sympathy and avoid punishment?

Because this Moro Hall was specially opened up for his use, the location was a little remote, usually watched by a little novice, but now he came, and drove the little novice to another place.

At this moment, the vast Moro Hall could not find anyone other than them.

When she goes out as a little girl, she may get lost.

"Then you stay here obediently, but you are not allowed to run around!" Li Yan said with a majestic face.

Tong Shuang raised her eyes and glanced at him cautiously, and nodded hurriedly.

"I'll call a little novice and come back, don't be afraid." Li Yan thought that she was a little girl here, so she couldn't help but say this.

"Big brother, go and come back quickly!" Tong Shuang finally raised his head and watched him leave.

"Hmm." Li Yan responded and strode out.

Seeing Li Yan step out of the threshold and turn around to close the door, Tong Shuang smiled at him.

She waited for a while, and estimated that Li Yan had walked out of the courtyard, so she turned around and ran to the couch, staring at Tong Xue's sleeping face.

"Don't do anything stupid, that staircase is only one zhang high, you will never fall to death if you jump down, and it is possible to break your arm and leg!" When she was the only one left in the room, she was the only one left awake, and the youkai who lived in her body suddenly spoke eeriely.

Use the usual tricks to intimidate her with words.

Tong Shuang pursed her lips stubbornly, and her eyes began to explore the room.

She scanned it carefully, but she didn't see the kind of lion's head wood carving she had seen in the secret passage.

Since it is the switch of the secret passage, it may be placed in a more secret place.

She ran behind the desk again, crouched down and searched carefully, and sure enough, she found a lion's head wood carving in one of the bookcases.

"If you're wrong once, do you want to be wrong a second time? Don't you hear how sad your sister cried when she couldn't find you? Have you ever wondered how your sister, your parents, and grandmother would be sad if you died like this? And you committed suicide and died, and that son knew about it, if this matter spreads, how should others think of your relatives? The voice in her head still didn't give up, babbling and bewildering her with words.

Tong Shuangli didn't pay attention to it, she followed Li Yan's appearance and turned the lion's head to her back.

"Squeak", the wall that closed really opened.

Tong Shuang's eyes lit up, and she raised her feet and ran towards the secret passage.

"Your mother is doomed! You and I have seen that scene, she doesn't want to live herself, she chooses to swallow gold and hang herself to give up her life, so why can't I borrow her body for use? Or would you like to share a body with me like this all the time? The monster roared hoarsely as she turned the lion's head on the railing.

The voice was poignant, like a dying beast.

"I don't believe a word of your words!" Tong Shuang had a sneer on her face that was not commensurate with her age, and walked towards the secret passage, and when she stepped into the wall, the mechanism also closed automatically.

"I have a way to save your mother!" The youkai in the body seemed to be completely gone, and said appointingly.

"You almost killed my sister!" Tong Shuang walked to the edge of the stairs and spit out these words word by word.

"Don't!" In the screams of the monsters in his body, Tong Shuang closed his eyes, like a moth, and threw himself into the flames that destroyed him without hesitation!

"Poof!" A dull sound echoed in the empty tunnel, and the moment his body touched the ground, Tong Shuang didn't feel any pain, but felt a sense of relief.

Her body was so small, huddled on the cold ground, like a sleeping baby.

Finally, I can't hurt my sister anymore.

Tong Shuang blinked, only to see a vague patch of scarlet, which should be blood flowing down the corners of his forehead.

Listening to that monster, my sister is smart and decisive, and with my sister and father here, my mother should be able to avoid that catastrophe, right?

As long as she is not there, as long as there is no monster in her body, what can threaten her mother's life?

Mother has a father, a sister, and an unborn little brother, and she can't think of doing such a stupid thing.

It must have been the monster who made it up to deceive her!

Definitely!

Before losing consciousness, a relieved smile appeared on the corner of Tong Shuang's mouth.

In exchange for the peace of the rest of her relatives, she felt that it was worth it.

"Dad, mother, embroidery will be your daughter in the next life. Sister, embroidery is still your sister! She said this in her heart, and finally she couldn't hold it anymore and fell into endless darkness

My sister's personality belongs to the outer soft and inner rigid type, just like Tong Xue guessed, she chose to jump into the well for the first time, but she didn't die, she chose to hit the wall of the well, and she still didn't die, so naturally there will be this third time.
