Chapter 120: Stratagem
I thought that after getting out of Zhang Lihua's yard, I would find an excuse to wake up, although I knocked Situ Tanhua into the lake last time, but through the observation of Situ and the brothers, Situ Tanhua should be the one with the best character, but what Gu Yuer never expected was that when Situ Tanhua walked out of the courtyard gate with herself, she suddenly lost consciousness, and when she was confused, she knew that she had fallen into the trap of Situ Tanhua, but it was too late, she could only close her eyes with unwillingness and worry.
When Gu Yu'er woke up, she found that she was in a place where she couldn't see her fingers, fortunately, her limbs were not restrained, her first reaction was to quickly stand up, keep walking and groping, afraid that there would be snakes here, this is Gu Yu'er's common problem over the years, as long as she can't see it, she will inexplicably begin to imagine that there will be snakes by her side.
When her hands touched the wall, she had a real sense of her existence, her heart calmed down a lot, and she walked along the wall, and in a few seconds, she found the location of the door, and shook the door vigorously, but there was no movement, not even a crack in the door, and in desperation, she put her ear to the door, trying to hear the movement outside.
"Have you seen the new girl two days ago?"
"You're talking about the girl who looks like a fairy?"
"Well, I heard that it is the most beautiful girl Yang Shenglou has ever had, after appearing last night, it caused a sensation in the entire Wu County for a while, and tonight the blood as many officials and nobles made a special trip to rush over for her."
"Hey, it's a pity, people of humble status like us are not qualified to go to the front yard, I really want to see it."
"yes."
"But then again, where did the proprietress find such a beauty?"
"I heard that it was sent by Young Master Situ." When the man said this, he deliberately lowered his voice, for fear that others would hear him.
"Is it the Situ altar painting that frequents here?"
"Isn't it? I heard that another one was delivered today, and now it's locked inside? ”
"Could it be that he is also a beautiful person?"
"Why don't we both take a look first?"
"But if the proprietress finds out..."
"Now that everyone else is almost resting at this time, as long as you don't say it, I won't say it, then no one will know?"
"You're right."
From the conversation between the two, Gu Yu'er could probably guess where she was now, but what she didn't expect was that Situ Tanhua showed a talent and demeanor, why would she do such a thing as abducting and selling women, but now she is not in the mood to delve into this problem, she only knows that Situ Tanhua sold her here, not to please the guests, but to make herself a coolie.
The footsteps of the two men outside were getting closer and closer, and Gu Yu'er hurriedly retreated to the side of the door, all her attention focused on the direction where the door was.
After a while, the door was opened, Gu Yu'er quickly shrunk her body tighter, trying to hide herself, as the door was opened, the light in the room began to brighten, Gu Yu'er carefully hid behind the door, observing the two people who came in, wanting to take advantage of their inattention, directly slipped out from behind the door, but she didn't see the figures of the two for a long time, and she couldn't hear any conversation, Gu Yu'er suddenly became puzzled, and still couldn't help poking her head out to confirm the situation.
But at the moment when she stuck out her head, a scarred cheek suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, and she was so frightened that she quickly retracted her head, because there was no way back behind her, and in a hurry, she fell behind her, and the real person was stuck in the gap between the door and the wall.
Although Gu Yu'er was somewhat immune to the scar, she couldn't help but be a little scared when she saw the inhuman-looking cheek in front of her, and slowly, that face approached Gu Yu'er, and Gu Yu'er, who couldn't move for a while, was so frightened that she almost screamed.
At this moment, the man suddenly stretched out his hand, signaling to pull Gu Yu'er up, Gu Yu'er kept looking at him with doubts, the palm in front of him was thick and white, and the slender fingers were slightly bent, looking from Gu Yu'er's direction, there was actually a pleasing feeling, the fear in her heart was reduced a lot, she raised her hand with doubts, and put her thin hand in the wide palm.
The old man didn't seem to be surprised by Gu Yu'er's move, and the moment Gu Yu'er put his hand in his palm, he naturally clenched his palm and wrapped Gu Yu'er's hand in his palm.
After standing firm, the old man consciously let go of Gu Yu'er's hand, Gu Yu'er carefully observed the person in front of him, his face was dissatisfied with large and small scars, he could hardly see his original appearance clearly, he was bent over and a little hunchbacked, his hands were a little too long for his height, hanging in the air, looking a little uncoordinated.
Gu Yu'er looked around, trying to find the other person who had just spoken.
"The proprietress asked me to pass on the two of them and find them in a hurry, so the two people just now are no longer here." The man's voice was a little hoarse, and he sounded a little older.
"Oh..." After hearing this, Gu Yu'er responded with some disappointment, at least now that she had been discovered by her enemy's friends, it was impossible to escape for the time being.
"You come with me." When Gu Yu'er was still immersed in loss, the man spoke, his tone was very gentle, and he had turned around and walked towards the door.
Although Gu Yu'er was a little puzzled, she could only take one step at a time now, so she followed the old man and left the firewood room where she was imprisoned.
At this time, Situ Mansion should have been immersed in peace and tranquility, but because of an uninvited guest, the entire Situ Mansion fell into chaos.
The man in black was holding Situ Huiyi hostage, holding the sharp blade on her neck, while Zhang Lihua was standing nervously not far away, but she concealed the tension in her heart very perfectly, except for the slight frown between her eyebrows, which could see her nervousness at this time, the others looked unusually calm.
"What exactly is your purpose? As long as you don't hurt my granddaughter, as long as I can do anything, I promise you everything. ”
The man in black did not answer Zhang Lihua's words directly, "My conditions can't be revealed yet, but I can tell you one thing, don't know why I died at that time." ”
At this moment, Situ Yanyu, who was masked in a mask, also rushed here, looking at everything in front of him, and suddenly began to be extremely nervous.
"I have an enmity with the people of the Situ family, so before I say my own conditions, I must take away the people of your Situ family."
"Then you let my granddaughter go and arrest me." Zhang Lihua's attitude when she said this was very resolute, and there was some anger in her tone.
"How can I negotiate the conditions after I arrest you?" With that, he turned and left.
