Volume II Chapter XXIV: 629 Bedrooms
It was already completely dark. Night, like a huge piece of pajamas, draped over the city. Reminds passers-by that it's time to go home. An old street lamp, flickering on and off on the side of the road, flashing with an eerie and dim light. Suddenly, a figure flashed from under the lamp and disappeared into the night. It was Lin Peng running back to the dormitory. In his hand, he still held the photo with Dugu Shuqin tightly. At this time, my heart was shocked.
Although he was incredulous about the content of the letter, he still chose to believe Dugu Shuqin's words. It turned out that he had been ignoring a very important place, a place that was close to him but had never been explored!
"You're back, where did you go today? Teachers order ..... today."
As soon as Lin Peng landed in the bedroom with his front feet, Fu Qiang asked curiously. However, before the other party could finish speaking, Lin Peng had already opened the drawer, finished taking his things, and rushed out of the bedroom again!
"What the hell?....."
Fu Qiang looked at Lin Peng's hurried figure with a question mark on his face.
The thing Lin Peng was holding in his hand was nothing else, it was the key to the 629 bedroom! At this time, with excitement and apprehension, he inserted the key into the lock hole of the 629 bedroom lock.
I heard a "click!" sound, and the door was opened.
Lin Peng pushed open the dusty door, took a step, and walked in.
The house had not been cleaned for a long time, and it was covered with dust and cobwebs. Lin Peng noticed that on the walls around the room, some patterns of "Dao Fu" could be faintly seen.
It turns out that this place has really done rituals before!
Thinking like this, Lin Peng brushed aside the cobwebs above his head and began to search for something on the wall. Suddenly, a bright light pierced Lin Peng's eyes, he subconsciously blocked it with his hand, looked in the direction of the light, and finally found the thing! Lin Peng hurriedly moved a stool, stood on the stool, and finally was able to hook the object on the wall.
He couldn't wait to go back and get the rag, so he reached out and wiped the dust off the object, gradually revealing the original appearance of the object.
It turned out that it was a mirror! The mirror was in a special position, hanging on the wall, facing the direction of the gate.
"Is this the thing?"
Lin Peng stretched out his hand and touched the mirror surface.
Suddenly! A magical scene happened! I saw that the mirror suddenly emitted a dazzling light! The whole room was illuminated! The Dao talismans on the wall, as if summoned by the mirror, also emitted dazzling light! The whole room was suddenly shrouded in a dazzling white light!
"How... What's going on?!"
Lin Peng was taken aback by this sudden scene!
"You're finally here, boy, I've been waiting for you for a long time....."
The sound came from the mirror! Lin Peng tried hard to open one eye, looked up, and saw a white-haired old man with long sleeves and white clothes walking slowly towards him from the dazzling white light!
"You... Who are you?!"
Lin Peng looked at the white-haired old man with a shocked face.
"I'm the one who came to pick you up. ”
The old man held out a hand, and a smile appeared on his lips.
"Welcome to the New World!"
.....
"If you don't agree, you'll have to get married! I've already decided, I'll prepare for your wedding when Robert comes back! In order to make you forget that stinky boy quickly, I want you to finish my marriage as soon as possible!"
Somewhere in Washington State, USA, Dugu Shangjun, director of the World Strange Events Investigation Bureau, is giving a final announcement to Dugu Shuqin.
"If you don't agree, I'll send someone to kill that little ghost!"
Dugu Shangjun saw that the other party was still unconvinced, and immediately opened his mouth to threaten. With that, he turned and walked out of the room. In the empty house, only Dugu Shuqin was left alone.
Dugu Shuqin sat on the edge of the bed, looking a little lonely, her black and bright hair on weekdays, but now she hung listlessly on her shoulders. She raised her head and looked out of the window, and suddenly felt that the window was like an iron prison. And he is the wretched bird in this prison.
Since leaving that night, she has been sent back here without stopping, and she has been placed under house arrest. Dugu Shangjun asked her to stay in the house, reflect on herself, when to admit her mistakes, and when to let her out. But she was stubborn and never wanted to admit that her relationship with Lin Peng was a mistake. Because she didn't want to live up to her feelings, or even just a compromised verbal admission. Therefore, Dugu Shangjun made up his mind to let her get married as soon as possible and get rid of this relationship as soon as possible.
"Miss, are you there?"
Suddenly, a man's voice came from outside the door.
"Kurokuba?....."
"Yes, can I come in?"
"It's okay, come in..."
Dugu Shuqin said, turned around, and retracted his thoughts.
"I've heard... The lord is engaged to someone from the Butler family. Is it true?"
Boruto Kuroki pushed open the door and walked in, asking with a shocked expression.
"Ah, that's right. The Butler family is one of the 'top 10 chaebol' families, and Robert and I are alumni, so in his opinion, this should be the most suitable choice. ”
Dugu Shuqin nodded and said.
"What about your own opinion?"
"I don't want to marry... But ....."
"The master threatened you with Lin Peng's life?"
Boruto Kuroki has also been following the father and daughter for many years, and he is very clear about their thoughts, and he guessed it at once.
"Hmm..."
Dugu Shuqin said helplessly.
"Do you need me to protect Lin Peng secretly?"
Kurokiri Boruto asked with a slight frown.
"No, I already told the Tianyan boy before I left, please ask him to protect Lin Peng's safety. You are a dark chess move, and now my father doesn't know that you have a good relationship with Lin Peng, and he doesn't suspect you. If you openly dismantle his stage in the back now, he will definitely find out, and when the time comes, I'm afraid even you will be monitored. Don't show up yet, I might need you to do something for me later. ”
Dugu Shuqin shook his head and said.
"That's... Are you going to just wait for Robert to come back?!"
"How is that possible? Of course I'm not going to sit still. Although I can't directly refuse my father's arrangement, it doesn't mean that I can't do anything!"
Dugu Shuqin sneered.
"The eldest lady means ?....."
"Didn't my father just say, 'Wait for Robert to come back'? Then we'll make him unable to come back! You go and make Robert bad in the back! Let him not finish the task for a while!"
"Hahaha! I understand, don't worry, Miss, I'll be careful and won't let that guy find out! ”
Boruto Kuroki said with a smile.
"By the way, Miss, there's something I've always been curious about, but I haven't asked ......"
Boruto Kurokiri walked to the door, suddenly remembered something again, and stopped.
"What's the matter?"
"I remember when you first met Lin Peng, you prophesied to him once, right? Why did you tell him at that time not to go near the locked room?"
"You mean that....."
Dugu Shuqin was reminded of her previous memories and couldn't help but smile.
"That's because... My prophecy to him was interrupted as soon as he opened the locked room. ”
"Medium... Interruption?!"
Boruto Kuroki asked with some puzzlement.
"Hmm... There are generally two types of prophetic interruptions. One is the death of the prophet, so there is no way to see the future. That's why I told him not to go near the room at the time. There is also the case where the prophet has a time period and disappears into the world of the normal timeline. ”
Dugu Shuqin nodded and continued to explain.
"You mean... Has he gone back to the past or to the future?"
"I don't know, but one thing is certain, that room is definitely not simple! I have investigated that room from the outside, and the furnishings of the 'Dao Talisman' and 'Dao Vessels' in it are very strange, and I have never seen them before. It's not ordinary people who set up that room!"
Actually, Dugu Shuqin didn't say anything, he had recorded these secrets somewhere, I don't know if Lin Peng found out?.....
