Chapter 20: The Heart of the Clouds

The land mentioned in the letter was in the territory of Linan, so they had to set out from Liefen and rush south to there. Yue Yi urged him to set off immediately, not wanting to delay too much time, so Yunzhan only took Shi Hua and one of his men, and the three of them got on the carriage and horse.

The road was bumpy, there was not even a break in the middle, and when they arrived at this small city, they did not settle at the inn, and they went straight to the place of fireworks called the Emerald Red Mansion.

The Cuihong Mansion is still so lively and vibrant, and the flow of people is also huge.

Yue Yi looked at the building card, "I don't believe that Shang Rui was brought here but didn't resist, this is by no means an ordinary green building, there must be a mystery behind it." "There's not the slightest sign of destruction here, it doesn't seem like the bad guys have ever appeared.

At this time, when they first approached Cuihualou, a shoddy aroma came to their faces, and Yueyi covered his nose, "It stinks." ”

Yun Zhan carefully handed over a handkerchief and motioned for her to block her mouth and nose. His nose moved slightly, and he carefully distinguished, "No, there is a demonic aura in the smell of incense." ”

"Really?" As Yue Yi spoke, she unconsciously dropped her handkerchief, and Yun Zhan helped her put it back on, saying, "It's better to be careful." ”

Yun Zhan was very sure that the Demon Breath existed, and he looked back at Shi Hua, who nodded and went to spy first. This time he was in a hurry, only Shi Hua followed, and he had to bear more for Yueyi's safety.

But Yun Zhan is confident that even if he encounters a bigger battle, he will not lose.

Shi Hua went to inquire and came back to say, "There is no figure of Miss Shang Rui in any room in the Cuihong Building, I am afraid that she has left." His implication was that there were no clues here, and there was no need for Yunzhan to search for it any longer. Shi Hua's martial arts are good, and he has been Yunzhan's right-hand man for a long time, so his words carry a lot of weight.

Yueyi was unwilling to give up, she unconsciously pulled Yunzhan sleeve and begged him, "Let's kidnap someone and ask, okay?" ”

Yun Zhan shook on the faces of Shi Hua and Yueyi, and finally gave in to the little girl, "Okay, let's go and see for ourselves." ”

Hearing this, Yue Yi jumped up quickly, "Okay! ”

Coincidentally, they also took the same road that Lao Liu took when he mixed into the Cuihong Building, and they happened to pass through the room in the middle, but unfortunately they entered at the wrong time, and they didn't see idlers like cooks.

"It's not meal time, maybe I'm out and waiting." Yueyi said to Yunzhan, and the meaning in her eyes was: Yes, let's continue to look for it, and we can't go back home here.

Yun Zhan looked at Yueyi's posture of asking three times, and knew that she was strongly uneasy and needed to find something to rely on, so according to her temperament, she showed surprisingly softness, and he even stroked Yueyi's little head melon and said, "Yes, let's go inside." ”

Even if Yueyi is just messing around, this trip is useless, as long as Yueyi is happy, it's good to toss around. Yunzhan didn't know that he was gradually losing his principles invisibly, and a leader always emphasized the principles of efficiency, effort and gain.

What's more, the two of them unconsciously cooperated with each other's words, and even their bodies magically leaned together. Shi Hua followed behind, saw the pair of conjoined backs, and pondered silently. Yueyi is very different to the lord, not like a girl, but like... Oops, he swallowed the surprise that was about to blurt out, but the shaking eyes revealed his excitement.

The two in front walked silently, but they didn't see the servant when they walked, but they found a young woman in pink who was dressing up alone in the room, and it was her!

Yun Zhan assigned Shi Hua to go to the front desk of Cuihualou to check the records to see if there were any suspicious people staying, he and Yueyi acted alone and sneaked into this room lightly. As soon as Yun Zhan entered the house, he directly held the girl in pink with a knife, and Yue Yi took the opportunity to block her mouth with the white handkerchief she had just used, and then Yun Zhan had the opportunity to give her some acupoints. The two cooperated tacitly, and it only took a little time.

The woman in pink couldn't move for a moment, her face was shocked, and her eyes glared at them. Yueyi reacted, leaned in front of Yunzhan and whispered, "What should I do?" Forget the disguise, she saw us. ”

Yun Zhan didn't think so, rubbed his ears that were a little itchy, and said to Yueyi, "It's okay." Then he turned to the woman and said, "Kill." The emotions of the first and last sentences are very different, one is gentle, the other is fierce.

The woman's face was already blue, Yueyi was relaxed with Yunzhan, and she even chatted with the woman, "You also heard it, he is fierce, don't mess with him." ”

The woman in pink hesitated, not knowing what the first month meant. Yue Yi continued: "Answer obediently, so that you won't have to worry about your life." After speaking, she looked at the woman, but the woman hesitated and didn't understand.

Yueyi pursed his lips, "Benzene!" The woman suddenly realized and nodded again and again.

So Yueyi said, "Well, I ask you..."

Yueyi's pretending to be an old man made Yunzhan laugh, but on such a serious occasion, he still concentrated on business.

Yue Yi asked, "Recently, there is a new girl in Cuihong Mansion, about eighteen years old, a little taller than me, beautiful, good at martial arts, and a fourteen-year-old boy by his side." ”

In order to wait for the woman to answer, Yun Zhan flipped her fingers to temporarily relieve her acupuncture, but when she saw that the woman in pink had just been relieved, she jumped up and retreated, her mouth wide open and shouted. Yue Yi secretly sighed badly, but fortunately, the woman in pink didn't shout at all, and Yun Zhan directly cut off one of her hands. She still couldn't make a sound, her cries for help were hopeless, and she had nowhere to hide indoors in despair. Yueyi stepped forward and pulled her other clean arm and led her back to her seat.

Yunzhan said: "If you play a little trick again, you will die, I will do what I say." ”

The terrible clouds reappeared, the room seemed to be a little colder, Yue Yi was also trembling with fright, and the woman in pink cried silently, nodding wildly with teary eyes. Yun Zhan opened her mouth without pity at all, "Say! ”

This time it really unlocked her dumb hole, and it was just a temptation just now. The woman in pink said, "I haven't seen that girl or a boy." ”

Yunzhan's hand was raised again, and the blood on the knife was still dripping.

Seeing that he was about to go crazy again, the woman hurriedly added, "But! A few days ago, there was a guest in the Cuihong Mansion who evaded orders, his origin is unknown, and his request is strange, I don't know if you want to find him. ”

"Go on." Yun Zhan slightly removed the handle of the knife.

This aroused their interest, and the woman excitedly added details to the matter, "When the guest came, he said that he was not short of money, and that if his mother gave him an empty room and did not disturb him, he would get a golden bean the next day." My mother felt that such a cheap thing must not be missed, and told us a thousand times not to go to the vicinity of the East Wing. She also said that people nowadays just have some strange preferences, and they all know how to do it..."

Yun Zhan was serious, "Talking about business." ”

"Oh oh oh, okay. I was sick in bed because I was not feeling well, and the yard where I lived was in the southeast area, and I was not kicked out of the house by my mother, so I should be the only one who heard the strangeness of that night. I forgot what time it was, and I was sleeping in a daze when I heard a loud bang. The sound is not like that of a human, it is like the sound of a beast, well, a bit like a dragon's roar, I don't actually know what the sound of a dragon is like, but I think it must be a huge and powerful animal that can make such a loud noise, so I guess it's a dragon.

In addition, there was a subtle woman's voice, which was so tragic that I was so scared that I covered my head with the quilt and didn't dare to get out, worried that I would be scared all night. I came out at dawn when I heard the sisters walking, and I asked them if they had heard anything, and they shook their heads. I also suspect I misheard... Later, my mother scolded the big guy for days, and it was said that he had evaded the bill and didn't pay at all. ”

Yueyi asked, "Who is the person who told you?" ”

"This! I can't say this, my mother is stumbling, it's not a person, it's ...

Yun Zhan had been thinking silently and didn't speak again, Yue Yi was puzzled, pointed to the sky, and asked, "What is this?" ”

The woman in pink was immersed in the memories, dancing and saying, "It's God, the god of heaven!" After saying that, he felt that he had collided with the gods in a reckless and outspoken manner, and quietly closed his mouth, and his eyes rolled to look at the roof.

What God? Eccentric! Yueyi turned to look at Yunzhan to hear his opinion. Yun Zhan asked the woman, "Is there a secret room, a place of punishment, or a cellar in the Emerald Red Mansion?" ”

The woman in pink thought for a moment, "There is one place of punishment, but it has long been abandoned, and it is said that people have died there, and it has long been sealed with mud to prevent people from entering. She also pointed out the place to them, and was banned by Yunzhan again, seeing that his next action was to raise the knife, Yueyi blocked the handle of the knife, and couldn't bear to say: "Why don't you spare her life?" “

Yun Zhan glanced at Yue Yi silently, and then stunned the woman in pink and didn't kill her.

According to her instructions, the place of punishment is in the abandoned West Garden, because the people in the building no longer go this way, so it is more convenient for them to come and go. Shi Hua also came back from the front yard to resume his life, and he said: "Lord, there is something strange in the Cuihong Mansion. ”

"Oh?" Yunzhan stopped.

Yueyi was looking for the entrance to the place of punishment everywhere in the West Garden, and when he was distressed and impatient and was about to ask Yunzhan to help, when he turned around and saw the two of them standing together solemnly, Yueyi asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Yun Zhan motioned for her to come closer, then took out a letter and said, "Someone left a letter for you." ”

Yueyi opened it and saw that it was actually a letter written by Lao Liu to him, which said: "Yueyi, I don't know when you received this letter, I hope it's still too late." I tracked down the demon who kidnapped Shang Rui and Yicheng to this place, I was going to save people but I had no choice but my skills were not as good as people but fell into his hands, Shang Rui has been lost, Yicheng is on the old demon of Xinhan, you pay attention to safety. ”

Yueyi was stunned, Shi Hua explained: "This letter is well hidden, I almost missed it, I concluded that what the letter said is true, and I am currently worried about what the situation of your friend is." ”

"My friend, my friend Lao Liu!" Yue Yi couldn't hold back her crying, and scolded Lao Liu in her heart for not being kind, why didn't she tell her to save her with their news, she had to go it alone, now it's okay...

Yue scolded and cried, her face wrinkled into an ugly ball, Yun Zhan helped her wipe her tears, and gave her another stimulus on her mouth, "The magic breath on the letter is fresh and strong, and the identity of this friend of yours is also a demon." ”

"Huh?" Crying Chirp Yue's eyes squeezed into a line opened suddenly, and her mouth unconsciously burped, "What did you say?" ”

She heard it, but she couldn't believe it. Yunzhan said, "I said your friend is..."

Suddenly, the brocade bag in his arms shook violently, and the beating shape could still be seen clearly under the cloud-covered coat, and Yueyi was attracted to it, and grabbed it directly to prevent it from moving.

This position was very close to Yunzhan's heart, and Yueyi almost rubbed his heart, and Yunzhan's heart paused a few times for no reason. He "coughed" twice and said, "I feel it, Nameless is around here." ”

Yue Yi burst into tears and laughed, "Really? "The snot is blown into a bubble.

It is true that Shang Rui, who is sleeping in the place of punishment, is quiet, and Nameless is silently accompanying her, illuminating her dreams with the warmest light possible.
