Chapter Ninety-Two: The Broken Temple in the Wilderness
After Wu Wei entered the house with his head down, he turned around and closed the door and locked it.
Lan Muxue walked to the middle of the living room, and after hearing the sound of the door locking, she quickly turned around, she pouted and asked with a resentful expression, "What are you doing here?" ”
Wu Wei pretended to be ignorant and said, "Yes, what am I here for?" Good bye! ”
After speaking, she pretended to leave, and Lan Muxue immediately shouted again: "Bastard, stop!" ”
Wu Wei made up his mind to open the door, turned around and said with a smile, "I met your sister today, so I wanted to come and have a look." ”
"And then?" Lan Muxue asked indifferently.
Wu Wei touched his head and said, "Tut, in fact, there is no contradiction between the two of us, and my business with your father has nothing to do with you." ”
Lan Muxue still looked at him angrily, but did not speak.
Wu Wei took two steps forward, and then said: "I want to say sorry to you last time, I didn't target you, I just don't want you to get involved in the conflict between me and your father, can you understand?" ”
This time, after Wu Wei finished speaking, Lan Muxue finally spoke: "You came to me to tell me this?" ”
Wu Wei opened his mouth a little unnaturally, as if he was sorting out the language, and paused before saying, "You are a good girl, I hope you can be happy!" I'm not a heartless person, so it's hard for me to hear that you've not been doing well lately. But you have to understand that some things are just so unsatisfactory, and I would like to be friends with you, but now my relationship with your father is destined to make it impossible for us to become friends. ”
Lan Muxue listened to Wu Wei's words, tears began to roll in her eyes, she tried her best to suppress her emotions, and said to Wu Wei: "My father's affairs have nothing to do with me, he is him, I am me!" Thank you for coming to see me, but I also know that you never loved me at all, so I won't miss you anymore, and I'm sad that it's my own business, and it has nothing to do with you. If you're only coming to see me out of guilt, you don't have to! Because, I've already begun to learn to let you go. ”
Wu Wei nodded, not knowing what expression to make at this time, because he felt her disappointment in himself from Lan Muxue's eyes and tone. Wu Wei felt that his throat was a little blocked, he coughed a little, and said, "That's good, now I'm sorry, it may be a little pale, I wish you will still be as happy as before in the future." ”
Wu Wei nodded deeply at Lan Muxue, and said softly, "I'm sorry today, goodbye!" ”
After speaking, Wu Wei just wanted to go out, but Lan Muxue stopped him again.
Wu Wei asked her, "Is there anything else?" ”
Lan Muxue said coldly: "You still don't go to the front door, I'm afraid that my father already knows that you came to see me at this time, so you should leave at the back window!" ”
Wu Wei looked into the courtyard through the window with some surprise, and didn't find anything abnormal, but Wu Wei still chose to believe Lan Muxue's words.
So he said, "Thank you!" After that, he slipped out of the back window.
Lan Muxue walked in front of the window, looking at Wu Wei's figure that quickly disappeared into the night, and finally couldn't help shedding a few tears.
In fact, just before Wu Wei entered Lan Muxue's house, the leader of the human guard's guard hurriedly went to report to Lan Mingyu. He said: "Among the people who protect the second lady, I found a person who is suspected of being Wu Wei! ”
Lan Mingyu immediately sent someone to sneak to Lan Muxue's side to investigate, and found that it was indeed Wu Wei who appeared in Lan Muxue's living room.
Lan Mingyu didn't want to alarm Lan Muxue, so he didn't send people to act immediately, but asked people to keep an eye on the movement here, and set up ambushes on all roads away from the Lan family's villa.
After Wu Wei slipped out of Lan Muxue's villa, he found a secluded corner to change into his clothes, and then quietly rushed to the west of the city. Just as he walked to the main road and was about to take a taxi, a black car stopped in front of Wu Wei.
The window slowly opened, and a middle-aged man sat in the driver's seat and said to Wu Wei: "Get in the car, I'll take you away!" ”
Wu asked suspiciously, "Who are you?" Why should I believe you? ”
The middle-aged man replied: "My name is Lan Mingkun!" ”
Wu Wei was shocked when he heard this name: "You are Lan Mingyu's younger brother?" ”
Lan Mingkun snorted, and then said, "Don't talk nonsense, time is pressing, you have been targeted!" ”
Wu Wu immediately pulled the car door and sat in.
The car started slowly and drove in the opposite direction.
Wu Wei was puzzled: "Where do you want to take me?" ”
Lan Mingkun said: "All the roads to the west of the city have set up checkpoints and ambushes, and if you want to leave Lucheng, you have to go around from the south of the city. ”
Wu Wei asked him, "How do you know?" It can't be what Lan Mingyu told you, right? ”
Lan Mingkun smiled: "Who doesn't have eyes and ears?" ”
Wu Wei stared at Lan Mingkun carefully for a while, and found that his appearance was indeed very similar to Lan Mingyu, especially the smile just now, Wu Wei seemed to see Lan Mingyu's shadow in a trance.
Wu Wei asked him, "Why are you helping me?" ”
Lan Mingyu glanced at him and replied, "It's not the first time I've helped you, if I hadn't suddenly appeared and disrupted my brother's plan, I'm afraid they would have done it to you a long time ago." ”
Wu Wei was even more puzzled: "You mean, you deliberately showed up to help me out of the siege?" ”
Lan Mingkun was silent for a moment and replied, "Not exactly, but there is a reason. ”
"Why?"
Lan Mingkun said: "It's very simple, because you and my brother are enemies, so I will help you." ”
Wu Wei asked him: "What kind of grievances do your brothers have, you would rather help one of your brother's enemies?" ”
Lan Mingkun said lightly: "These have nothing to do with you, in short, I have my own purpose." ”
Wu Wei saw that Lan Mingkun didn't want to say more, so he didn't ask again, since it had nothing to do with him, it was better to have more than one thing.
The car went all the way to the south of the city, and finally drove out of Lucheng to the southern suburbs. After driving to a secluded road in the southern suburbs, Lan Mingkun stopped the car and said to Wu Wei: "You can get out of the car!" ”
"Here?" Wu Wei asked: "It's so remote here that there isn't even a taxi, and I don't know the way in the middle of the night, how can you let me go back?" ”
Lan Mingkun looked at Wu Wei and said indifferently: "The west of the city must have been ambushed, my car is too blinking, once they are found in the west of the city, they will stop us immediately." You can go northwest from this path, and you can go around the western suburbs in three hours at the speed of a man, and no one will find you as long as you don't enter the city! ”
Wu Wei thought about it, if Lan Mingyu set up an ambush, he would definitely want to kill himself, and now that he was alone and injured, it was indeed more dangerous. Therefore, after thinking about it again, Wu Wei stepped out of Lan Mingkun's car.
Originally, he wanted to thank Lan Mingkun, but as soon as he closed the car door, Lan Mingkun kicked the accelerator and went away.
In the dark, Wu Wei was left alone in this strange and remote place, and the thought of walking for three hours made him feel a little depressed.
Following the direction pointed by Lan Mingkun, Wu Wei turned into a human and hurried forward, and the journey was smooth, and he did not encounter any ambushes or anything like that.
While walking, Wu Wei calculated the time in his heart, and after walking for about an hour and a half, Wu Wei stopped.
Because not far from his left front, a ruined temple appeared at an inopportune time.
Wu Wu originally thought that there should be no extraneous branches, but this dilapidated temple seemed to have an inexplicable attraction, which made Wu Wu couldn't help but want to go in and have a look.
After a fierce ideological struggle, Wu Wei still decided to enter the ruined temple.
The plaques at the entrance of the temple were all rotten, and Wu Wei walked into the temple by the moonlight, and found that the courtyard was already overgrown with weeds, which looked very dilapidated and desolate.
This temple is not big, and there is only one temple after walking in, because there is no plaque, so Wu Wei does not know which way of the gods is offered inside. So, he paused for a moment and walked into the temple.
The roof of the temple had already broken many holes, so the moonlight could also shine in, and Wu Wei looked at the only god statue in the temple through the moonlight.
The statue was also dilapidated, and a lot of paint had fallen off on it, but the appearance of this statue made Wu Wei feel a little strange.
Wu Wei really couldn't think of which fairy looked so terrifying, only to see that there was a fierce beast with a bloody mouth sitting under this statue, its upper body with teeth and claws, its chest exposed, its eyes were half-open and half-closed, and there were fangs in its mouth, it seemed to be looking down at Wu Wei under the hall with a smile, and the whole appearance looked very terrifying under this hazy moonlight.
Wu Wei didn't care too much, after all, no matter how terrifying the statue was, it was dead, he lightly walked around the temple and found that there was no danger, so this time he relaxed his vigilance.
Wu thought that it seemed that he was suspicious, but this was actually just a broken temple, and there should be no secrets.
Thinking of this, he turned around and was about to leave, but at the foot of the idol, there was a sudden sound of Suosuo, Wu was startled, and immediately turned around vigilantly.
Then in the moonlight, Wu Wei quietly walked under the idol again, and he saw a hole under the seat of the idol, and several rats were wandering around the hole. Wu Wei breathed a sigh of relief and thought, "It turned out to be the sound of a mouse!" ”
But just when he wanted to turn around and leave again, he saw a very strange scene, only to see several rats surrounding the left front paw of the beast, as if they were pushing hard in one direction.
Wu Wei was immediately attracted by the strange behavior of the mice, could it be that there was some secret hidden on the left front paw of this fierce beast?
He came up suspiciously, and several mice were not scared away by him, but instead stopped their movements and stepped aside, staring directly at Wu Wei.
"You want me to twist this claw?" Wu Wei didn't know why he was talking to the mouse.
But when he finished speaking, the rats not only did not run, but squeaked at him a few times. Although Wu Wei felt strange, he immediately understood, he rolled up his sleeves and grabbed the front paws of the fierce beast and turned them vigorously.
Unexpectedly, this front paw was easily twisted by him, and then, the entire idol began to tremble, so frightened that Wu Wei hurriedly hid aside, and the rats were also frightened by this sudden movement and fled in all directions.
Wu Wei stood aside and watched in amazement as the base of the entire idol slowly moved back, and after a while, a passage appeared under the statue.
"Sure enough, there is a secret!" Wu Wei couldn't help but be surprised.
It wasn't until the statue was completely silent that Wu Wei walked to the entrance of the passage and looked inside cautiously. But because it was night, the moonlight couldn't shine in, so I couldn't see what was inside.
"Do you want to go down?" Wu Wei beat the drum in his heart: "What if there is any danger below?" ”
After thinking about it, in the end, curiosity prevailed over reason, and Wu Wei mustered up the courage to go down the passage.
There is a staircase in the passage that is diagonally downward, about a meter wide, and can only accommodate one person to go down. Since turning into a human being, Wu Wei's eyesight in the dark environment has become extremely good, but what he didn't expect was that it was so dark in the passage that even he couldn't see anything clearly.
Wu Wei had no choice but to grope the wall and go inside, walking and walking, he actually touched something similar to a candlestick on the wall. Wu was worried about taking it off, but just as he pulled it hard, "Puff Flip-" There were a few muffled sounds, and both sides of the passage instantly lit up.
"What's the situation?" Wu Wei was surprised to see that there were really countless lampstands hanging on the walls on both sides, but he didn't know what the principle was, and he actually pulled all the lampstands up.
I don't know what kind of oil was in the lampstand, but the oil became a paste, and as the wick burned, the oil slowly melted again.
The passage was illuminated all of a sudden, and Wu Wei saw clearly that the passage had been extending downward, about more than twenty meters long, and there was a corner at the end of the passage.
With the bright light, Wu Wei also quickened his pace, he walked quickly inside, turned the corner of the passage, Wu Wu saw that at the end of the passage not far away, there was still a stone door.
