Chapter 221: Old Lady Wei dies

Although he was in a hurry, there was a large group of people around, and his martial arts were also sealed. Wei Lingfeng could only pretend to be light and light, and followed them slowly.

When he came to Heshoutang, before he entered the courtyard, Wei Lingfeng saw two dead men dressed in black standing at the door of the old lady's room.

The courtyard was silent, without a sound.

Wei Lingfeng stepped into the courtyard. Although he couldn't use martial arts, the martial artist's innate sense made him instantly perceive that there were at least dozens of dead soldiers lurking in this courtyard.

Wei Lingfeng pursed his lips tightly, his hand hidden under his sleeve and clenched into a fist.

Steward Li motioned to the two dead men standing at the door to open the door, and then asked Wei Lingfeng to enter.

Wei Lingfeng stepped in, and the group of people around him finally didn't follow up. When I entered the room, a strong smell of medicine came to my nose. Wei Lingfeng frowned.

The room is quite bright. Wei Lingfeng looked up and saw a landscape screen in front of him, and an old voice came from behind the screen: "Is that Ling Feng's kid here?" ”

"Grandmother."

Wei Lingfeng called out and walked over quickly, his eyes instantly moistened.

Crossing the landscape screen, Wei Lingfeng saw an old man with gray hair leaning on an orange pillow, his eyes unusually bright.

Seeing Wei Lingfeng, the old man had a happy expression on his face.

"Feng'er, I haven't seen you for a long time, come here." Old Lady Wei beckoned Wei Lingfeng to sit down on the edge of the bed.

Wei Lingfeng walked over as he said and saw that the old lady was in good spirits.

It's just that the senses of people who practice martial arts are keen, Wei Lingfeng sat down on the edge of the old lady's bed, and felt that the old lady's breathing was very weak.

It seems like there is a possibility of stopping at any time.

Wei Lingfeng was shocked, this is a sign of a person's imminent death. Now that the old lady seems to be in good spirits, isn't it just a return to the light?

"Grandmother, what's wrong with you?"

Wei Lingfeng held the old lady's arm as he spoke, and pressed his index and middle fingers on the old lady's pulse.

Although his medical skills are not as good as Ning Er'er, he can still feel the pulse and see that Wei Lingfeng is still possible.

It's just that the old lady used her remaining meager strength to dodge Wei Lingfeng's outstretched hand.

"Feng'er, grandmother's head hurts so much, come over and help grandmother rub it." Old Lady Wei said to Wei Lingfeng.

Wei Lingfeng was stunned, and when he saw that the old lady was resolute, he was no longer reluctant,

Wei Lingfeng reached over and gently pressed it on the old lady's temple. The old lady lowered her head slightly and leaned against Wei Lingfeng's side.

The distance between the grandfather and grandson was shortened at once.

"Feng'er, you've suffered."

Old Lady Wei said softly to Wei Lingfeng.

"Grandmother, I'm fine." Wei Lingfeng said, "I haven't returned for a long time, and it's my fault that I didn't come to see you." Are you sick? ”

Mrs. Wei lowered her head and didn't speak, something hot dripped on the quilt that Mrs. Wei was covering.

"Grandmother?"

Wei Lingfeng was shocked, and wanted to ask again, but the old lady spoke.

"Feng'er, your father...... I'm afraid it's hard to turn back. ”

"There is a tunnel under my bed, which leads to the study in your house."

"I can't hold it up for long...... After a while, you quietly climb under the bed, pull the switch installed under the bed, lift the plank, and hide in the dark tunnel. ”

"This secret passage was built when the old lady was there, in order to prevent war one day, so that we, the ladies of the back house, have a place to hide. Although this tunnel does not lead outside the city, on the way to your study, a small hole has been built with food and water to take refuge in it for a while. ”

"The most important thing is that this authentic - your father doesn't know ......"

When the old lady said this, her voice was almost inaudible.

Wei Lingfeng was startled, and instantly understood what the old lady meant.

A secret passage under the bed leads to his study, and behind the shelves in his study, there is a secret passage leading to the outside of the city. The Wei family is the home of the generals, and the clan has the best talents in the generals. For the prevention of war, Mrs. Wei is even more proficient. Therefore, countless secret tunnels of various sizes were built in the house to protect themselves in the war.

But in the end, the only one that remained was the one in his study.

As for the one under the bed that the old lady said, it must have been left by Mrs. Wei alone. The secret passage in the study, my father knew about it. It is naturally impossible to get out of there. But if he can avoid the secret passage that the old lady said, once his father finds that he is gone, he will definitely send someone out to look for him, and when the defense in the house is lowered, when his martial arts are restored, he can find an opportunity to escape!

Wei Lingfeng thought for a moment and was about to speak, but Old Lady Wei coughed violently.

The voice was harsh, as if he had endured it for a long time. Wei Lingfeng helped the old lady to lie down on the pillow, and leaned his hand on her back to give her a breath.

Drops of blood flowed from the corners of the old lady's mouth.

Wei Lingfeng noticed that the color of this blood was dark red, which was ...... Poisoning?

"Grandmother ......"

"Leave me alone!"

Before Wei Lingfeng finished speaking, he was interrupted by Mrs. Wei.

"Feng'er, you go quickly. ......Hurry up," Mrs. Wei pulled Wei Lingfeng's sleeve and said to him.

Wei Lingfeng could see that his grandmother was in extreme pain.

Who is it?

How did you hurt your grandmother like this?

Father, what the hell is he doing?

"Grandmother, bear with me, Feng'er will take you with me!" Wei Lingfeng said.

"No!"

Mrs. Wei waved her hand and said, "You don't have to worry about me......"

"You go down as soon as possible now, in the secret passage under this bed, Lan Yan is also there. Feng'er, after you left, she missed you very much, and even offended your father in order to defend me. Your father wanted to dispose of her, so I begged her. Now that you're gone, take her with you. Whether to go or to stay, you decide. ”

"Grandmother, stop talking." Wei Lingfeng saw that there was more and more blood left on the corner of Old Lady Wei's mouth, and her breath was getting weaker and weaker, and he was very anxious.

"Grandmother, do you know that Ning'er gave birth to a big fat grandson for you, and you haven't seen it yet......"

"Grandmother, if you bear with me, I'll take you away, right away!"

Old Mrs. Wei was stunned when she heard what Wei Lingfeng said, and then immediately showed a pleased smile and said, "Really...... That's good, good......"

After Mrs. Wei finished speaking, her body suddenly loosened, and her eyes slowly closed.

Wei Lingfeng was startled, and there was a sadness in his heart.

"Grandmother, grandmother?" Wei Lingfeng tried his best to suppress his voice and called Old Lady Wei a few times.

Mrs. Wei leaned on the pillow, unmoved, with a peaceful smile on her face.

Presumably when she was dying, she heard the good news she brought to her, and she left with relief!

Wei Lingfeng cried silently.

Tears dripped down the bed. I don't understand why my grandmother is like this. But his grandmother's hard work, Wei Lingfeng still understood.

This is the grandmother who is painstakingly trying to save herself. How could I miss this opportunity because of a momentary emotion?

Wei Lingfeng wiped away his tears, and there was no one in the room. Presumably, in order to let him escape, his grandmother broke away all the people who wanted to enter the room on the grounds that he was seriously ill. And the dark warriors outside are ready to move.

Wei Lingfeng picked up the handkerchief placed next to the bed, wiped the blood on his grandmother's face little by little, and then laid his grandmother flat on the bed.

Then, he slipped under the bed, opened the tunnel, and entered.

Inside the tunnel is a long stepped passage.

When the switch is turned off, it is pitch black inside. With the sharpness of a martial artist, Wei Lingfeng groped in the darkness and followed the stairs smoothly to the flat ground.

Walking further along the long passage inside, after a while, Wei Lingfeng came to a semicircular flat land. There was a dim oil lamp on the floor. A woman in a plain white dress sat on the ground, and when she saw him, she immediately stood up.

The woman's face was full of surprise, and when she saw Wei Lingfeng, joy and shock overflowed her cheeks.

"World ...... The prince ......"

Wei Lingfeng nodded, this woman was Lan Yan.

Lan Yan hadn't seen Wei Lingfeng for a long time, and he forgot to step forward when he was so happy that he just stood there and smirked.

Wei Lingfeng approached Lan Yan and saw that her hair was scattered, and she was simply tied with a wooden hairpin, although her face was full of excitement, she looked very haggard.

Wei Lingfeng sat down on the ground and saw a lot of dry food and clothes next to him. A thick layer of hay was spread on the ground. The old lady said that the passage was built when the old lady was there, but it was not dilapidated and very clean.

Judging from this, there must be someone who comes to clean it regularly.
