Chapter 40: The Door Within the Door
"Okay." Mu Jiujiu replied.
After the old man finished speaking, he went into his room and closed the door.
Mu Jiujiu continued to eat fried beans, and his heart was delicious.
The beans are so crispy and delicious that you can't stop eating them. Seeing that Wen Yuan and Duan Qianxiao didn't seem to have any intention of eating, she happily ate most of the plate.
After a while, Wen Yuan suddenly walked to the dark green cabinet and opened the cabinet.
Mu Jiujiu: "? ”
Wen Yuan, senior, what's the matter with you, why do you casually turn over people's things?
Duan Qianxiao saw Wen Yuan's movements, and also looked towards the cabinet. The cabinet is full of delicate knick-knacks. There was a flute inside, and the sound holes were covered with dust, and the faint golden lines on it could be faintly seen.
Duan Qianxiao frowned: "This seems to be ......"
Wen Yuan: "Hundred Bird Spirit Flute." ”
Duan Qianxiao's eyes froze, and he glanced at Wen Yuan.
"You ......"
Mu Jiujiu was shocked when he saw them "looking at each other affectionately".
Wen Yuan glanced at her and comforted, "It's okay, don't worry." ”
“…… Okay. Mu Jiujiu's face was complicated.
She thought to herself, as the only player in this game, this kind of heroine exists no matter how you look at it. It's just a law that I haven't met male creatures who fall in love with me, but I didn't expect that the two men I had the most contact with would actually confirm each other's eyes......
And they're still making eye contact.
This......
In broad daylight......
No, it's already dark.
Am I glowing? Mu Jiujiu thought heavily.
Wen Yuan calmly said to Mu Jiujiu: "When the time comes, you will go upstairs after eating." ”
"Oh." Mu Jiujiu replied listlessly.
Intellectually, she felt she should bless them. But inexplicably, I feel a little lost.
I can't say where I am lost.
She was bored while eating, so she said, "Let's go, go up." ”
……
The stone staircase was long and dark, without the slightest light.
Mu Jiujiu cautiously groped forward.
The shoes stepped on the stone staircase and made a regular "click" sound. Maybe she remembered the plot of a ghost movie she watched before, and the surroundings were too quiet, and this sound inexplicably made her a little scary.
"Why don't you talk?" As soon as she finished saying this, she almost fell.
A slender hand held her.
"Be careful." Wen Yuan said softly.
Mu Jiujiu realized that the staircase she had just stepped on was a little uneven, and there was just a lack of some stones.
"It's so thrilling to walk up a staircase." She complained silently.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and it turned out to be Wen Yuan who took out a illuminated spirit bead.
"Let's go." Wen Yuan said.
Under the warm white shimmer, his delicate eyebrows and eyes and thin lips were reflected.
Mu Jiujiu was slightly distracted.
She quickly looked away, thinking to herself, how could this stone staircase be longer than she thought.
I finally got to the second floor, and there was a room around the corner.
Mu Jiujiu just wanted to go in, but found that Wen Yuan and Duan Qianxiao were still in their original positions.
"Isn't it on the second floor?" Mu Jiujiu saw that they still wanted to go upstairs, and asked puzzledly.
Wen Yuan and Duan Qianxiao glanced at each other.
Duan Qianxiao said: "You go to bed to rest first, Brother Wen Yuan and I will go up and have a look, and we will come down in a while." ”
Mu Jiujiu: "! ”。
You actually had a secret tryst.
Okay, excuse me.
She limbly returned to her room, where the blanket was already laid out. The bed was a bit hard but fairly clean.
When you're alone, it's always easy to think a lot. And now it's night again, unfamiliar surroundings.
The windows in the room were not closed, and outside the window were luxuriant foliage, whirring in the wind. It seems to be a bad day, a precursor to heavy rain.
At this moment, the scenes of countless ghost movies are staged in Mu Jiujiu's mind. She really couldn't stay, and thought to herself, "Shine brightly", and walked out of the room with a heroic face, catching up with Wen Yuan and them.
Duan Qianxiao heard footsteps behind him: "Hey, why did you come out again." ”
Mu Jiujiu: "You wait for me, I promise to wait for a while without speaking or looking at a person silently staying on the side and contemplating on the wall." ”
Duan Qianxiao: "? ”
Wen Yuan said: "It's okay, take her with you." ”
Walking to the top floor, Mu Jiujiu found that the space on this floor was much narrower.
There is a small dark green door in front of him, which should be the place where the old man said to put sundries.
It's just a little surprising that there is an overly heavy lock on the door.
Wen Yuan said: "You stand back. ”
Immediately, he condensed his aura and gathered it on the lock, and the brilliance quietly erupted in the darkness.
There was a soft knock and the door opened.
Mu Jiujiu looked over a little curiously, and sent it down to the door, and there was a dark green door, which still had a heavy lock on it.
Wen Yuan concocted the same method and opened the door again.
However, inside this door, there is a dark green door that is the same as before!
Mu Jiujiu also felt that something was wrong at this time, if it was to put sundries, as for such a "heavy precaution"?
What's inside this door?
Wen Yuan just wanted to continue, but he heard an old voice from below.
"What do you do?"
Mu Jiujiu was taken aback.
She looked at the voice, and saw the old man with a kerosene lamp, looking at them faintly.
The dim light shone on his face, which made his face look a little scary.
What should I do if I open someone's door and get caught? online, etc.
Mu Jiujiu felt that the whole person was not good.
What should be said now? You won't be kicked out, will you......
Mu Jiujiu immediately said: "I'm sorry, old man, we can't sleep at night and want to come up to see the scenery, that's why it's like this......"
The old man's tone was a little angry: "Look at the scenery and see the utility room? ”
Mu Jiujiu: "Maybe you want to find a special environment." Young people like novelty and excitement, you know. ”
Wen Yuan: "......"
Duan Qianxiao: "......"
Mu Jiujiu: "? "Why are you looking at me like that?
The old man looked at them with a little terrible eyes: "It is recommended that you do not move around at will, it is quiet in the dead of night, if something happens, it may not be." ”
Mu Jiujiu looked at the old man in front of him, he stood below, looking up at them. The whole body exuded an aura that made people a little frightened, which was very different from the "kind and kind" old man who entered the door at the beginning.
Wen Yuan said at this time: "Let's go, let's go down." ”
Duan Qianxiao glanced at him and understood what he meant.
Neither he nor this Brother Wen Yuan just now noticed that the old man suddenly went upstairs, and he didn't hear any sound or feel any breath, which showed that the other party was definitely not simple.
At this time, if you don't know the depth of the other party, it's best not to hit it hard.
Wen Yuan patted Mu Jiujiu and motioned for her to go downstairs together. When passing by the old man, Wen Yuan glanced at the old man.
Then, he said lightly: "We also hope that tonight, it is better that nothing happens." ”
That tone was also a bit of a warning.
Looking at their backs as they descended downstairs, the old man narrowed his eyes. Holding the thin hand of the kerosene lamp, there are faint dark lines emerging.
The old man shook his head, and the dark lines moved, as if they were alive, and quickly disappeared.
As if it had never appeared.
