Chapter 40: Meeting
The whole secret room is made of cyan granite, as Yan Meng expected, the secret room is a circle about six zhang wide, and a square table is placed opposite the stone door, and an unlit oil lamp is placed on the table. To Yan Meng's surprise, the light source in this room did not come from the opening of the window, but the roof was inlaid with a night pearl the size of a man's fist, illuminating this secret room as bright as day.
On the left side of the square table is a row of bookcases against the wall, with several rows of books neatly placed above, and scrolls below, which look like unique works of famous collectors. On the right, there are all shelves, displaying some valuable ornaments, some of which are not visible, and are packed in boxes. The structure of the whole secret room is simple, and Pu Yi is not surprised to see the secret room of ordinary people.
It looked like it was just an ordinary storage room, but Yan Meng still felt that there was something strange about it. She walked to the bookshelf and observed carefully, the books on the bookshelf were very high, and it was a little difficult to get them with Yan Meng's height, so her eyes moved down, and several hollow partitions were placed under the bookshelf for the convenience of placing the scrolls, so that different kinds of scrolls were separated. Looking around for half a week, a scroll at the very end of the bookshelf caught her attention. Unlike other scrolls, it is placed alone in a slot, and it is also covered with dust......
Dust! Yan Meng glanced around, staring at the dusty scroll in thought. In this way, the chamber is less like a storage room that has been left unused, but more like a room where people often come here...... Yan Meng knew where the weirdness came from, and there was no dust when the stone door was opened, and the impression of the whole room was spotless, not at all like a storage room that was only used for storage. This is another secret room, Yan Bocheng will not let ordinary people know about its existence, so the reason why it is so clean is because Yan Bocheng often goes in and out of this place and cleans it himself! Being able to let Yan Bocheng do it himself is enough to confirm how much he attaches importance to the things in this secret room, but why is this scroll alone covered with dust as if it was deliberately abandoned?
Yan Meng subconsciously wanted to pick up the scroll, but stopped his movements before touching the scroll, the scroll was full of dust, if he acted rashly, wouldn't it make Yan Bocheng see the clues?
Do you want to see it? A gust of wind blew in, and Yan Meng turned around to see that the stone gate was slowly rising, oh no! Yan Bocheng is back?
Just now she was too focused on the things in this secret room, and she didn't pay attention to Yan Bocheng's movements, no, she hadn't heard any movement outside since she entered this secret room, that was the structure of this secret room... No, now is not the time to think about this, what should Yan Bocheng do if he finds out that he has discovered the secret room?
After a quick glance at this secret room, he immediately understood why Yan Bocheng designed this secret room in this way, and the entire secret room was unobstructed, without any place to hide!
Seeing that the stone door had already risen halfway, leaking out half of the body of the people outside, Yan Meng looked towards the display rack behind him......
A man wearing a hat and a cloth dress walked on the street in a panic, glancing behind him from time to time, and seeing that there was no one behind him, he turned around and entered the small alley, took off the hat, and leaked out the handsome cheeks, which was Wei Huai'an, who was caught by Li Shu and went to Nanbo Caolu to refine medicine. Although he was wearing a cloth shirt, because of his extraordinary appearance and luxurious bearing, he wore this cloth shirt with the feeling of brocade and satin.
Wei Huai'an saw that he was waiting for a while at the mouth of the alley, but there was no one following behind, so he breathed a sigh of relief, who just exhaled a breath of turbidity, his chest ached, and when he just fought with Thirteen, he regained his strength and was thrown to the ground, if it weren't for his strong body, he would have to lie in bed for ten days and half a month before getting out of bed!
Rubbing his chest with a little indignation, he touched it into his arms only to realize that he had changed his clothes, and he didn't have the medicine of Shun Nanbo with him just now, so he couldn't help but feel a little remorseful, and scolded in a low voice of resentment. But he still endured the true qi in his body and sealed the veins, which soothed the pain in his chest.
After slowing down in place for a while, Wei Huai'an flew up to the roof again, but in a moment he arrived at the inner courtyard of Yan Mansion, last time he entered from Yan Bocheng's study, and now it is daytime He didn't dare to go to Yan Bocheng's study rashly, but thinking that he came out of the inner courtyard of Yan Mansion last time, he thought that there should be an entry mechanism in this place.
Sure enough, as he expected, but in a moment, he touched the mechanism behind the tree, and watched the bluestone slab leak down the passage, Wei Huai'an jumped in, but after a while, he disappeared.
At this time, a moon-white figure jumped down from the eaves of the wall, stood in place and looked at the figure of Wei Huai'an who had disappeared at the end of the passage, followed in, and stood still at the entrance, with the light of the passage, he closed the bluestone slab according to the appearance he had just seen, and followed Wei Huai'an's back.
Wei Huai'an went to the entrance of the secret room according to the memory of that day and pressed the secret grid. When the full appearance of the secret room came into view, he walked in slowly, and when he saw that the secret room was still as in his impression, he was relieved, and took down the book hidden in the bookshelf according to the impression, took out a note from it, opened it and checked that it was correct, put the note into his arms, put the book back, and lowered his body and half-squatted towards the back of the bookshelf. After another inspection, after confirming that it was correct, he wrapped it around his hand, and when he turned to leave, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of a row of scrolls placed under the bookshelf, and thought of the conversation he heard that day, and the ghost sent a god to pick up the scroll and open it to check.
After opening it, I put it down again and continue to view.
"Ding-" A sharp blade sound that broke through the air sounded behind itself, startling Wei Huai'an and almost throwing away the scroll in his hand. Immediately turned around and put his hand on his waist, touched his soft sword, and let go after seeing that the person was someone he knew, but after a moment, he was full of joy, only to see that he was holding a long sword and pointing behind the cabinet, just now he came in and didn't notice that there was someone behind him?
After a while, I saw a woman walking out from behind the cabinet, it was the woman I had just seen, Wei Huaian couldn't help squinting his eyes.
Yan Meng and the owner of the long sword looked at each other calmly, just now he was afraid of causing Wei Huai'an's attention behind the cabinet, so he didn't move at all, and he didn't know what was happening, only noticed that the sword light flashed, and the man stood there looking at himself with a smile, and when he saw the man in front of him, he couldn't help but be surprised, it was him? The man in front of him is very good-looking, different from Wei Huai'an's evil and seductive handsomeness, with a slender body, about seventeen or eighteen years old, his appearance can be called extremely juvenile at this age, a pair of peach blossom eyes are looking at himself clearly, if it is not for the coldness of the eyes as if looking at dead things, it will definitely make the woman in front of him have the illusion of being regarded as a sweetheart.
"You... Get to know me. And his affirmative tone, with suspicion and at the same time burst out with great murderous intent.
Of course Yan Meng knew, the man in front of him was none other than Li Shu, the current prince of Lin'an, "I..." she quickly thought about what to do, if she rashly denied it at this time, it would obviously only lead to greater suspicion, "Are you with him?" I've seen him. Yan Meng stretched out his hand to Wei Huai'an, and at the same time asked calmly, "Who are you?" Why did you show up at my house several times? ”
Li Shu suddenly thought of catching Wei Huai'an in a woman's room in the thirteenth report this morning, and the woman said "several times"... Turning his head to look at Wei Huai'an, his eyes changed a little.
Wei Huai'an looked at Li Shu's strange eyes, and suddenly felt a little furious, did he misunderstand something? Just as he was about to open his mouth to explain, he saw Li Shu's sword leaning towards the woman again, bullying him, and whispering in the woman's ear: "This kind of feedback is what you want?" ”
Suddenly approached by an unfamiliar aura, Yan Meng frowned, and subconsciously leaned back, but the sword followed closely behind, and landed on his neck without letting go, not only the unfamiliar breath that could not be taken off, but also the cold air emitted by the sharp blade.
Yan Meng rarely has such an intimate and ambiguous behavior with others, let alone being looked at so sharply, and there is a sharp blade in the middle? However, she was still surprised by the sharpness of the young man in front of her, and forcibly endured the discomfort in her heart, and suddenly smiled quietly at the pair of eyes that seemed to be cold: "I don't know Your Excellency, why should Your Excellency embarrass me?" ”
Seeing that the woman in front of her was not stunned, but asked herself calmly, Li Shu couldn't help but smile playfully: "Miss Yan Wu is so bold!" ”
Yan Meng was suddenly recognized, his eyes changed slightly, but he knew that the person in front of him was not very human, and it was not a big deal to be recognized.
"You really know me, but I don't remember when I met Miss Yan Wu." Li Shu approached Yan Meng, and his tone was intimate, but it didn't prevent him from increasing the strength in his hand. He had just roughly looked at the information of the Yan Mansion, and stood behind the wall and watched her enter the secret room, it was not difficult to distinguish the identity of the woman in front of him, but what made him wonder was that he had never appeared in the sight of everyone, why was the woman in front of him surprised for a moment after seeing him? It was clear that he had seen him like that, he never doubted his memory, and he was even more sure that he didn't know the woman in front of him.
Yan Meng only felt that the skin on his neck was about to be cut in the next second, and it was still a little difficult to maintain such a posture for a long time. But she knew that if she showed weakness, she was afraid that the sharp blade would pass through her neck in the next second, her mission was not completed, and she couldn't just end this hard-won life so hastily. She still looked at the man in front of her with the same expression, her eyes burst with great brilliance, and she smiled softly: "Why is Your Excellency so afraid of being recognized?" "There was a clear mockery in his eyes, as if to say, 'I see through not only your identity, but also your fear!'
Li Shu didn't laugh angrily: "I don't know if everyone in the Yan Mansion knows that Miss Yan Wu, who is cautious and cautious, has such a side?" ”
