I was shocked in my dreams, and no one knew what I was doing at this time.

The sleeping Vicky is disturbed by a rush of light and wakes up from her dream.

She looked up, and there was a person standing in the light, the jade tree was in the wind, and the moon was bright.

In a daze, Youwei couldn't tell the difference for a while, and said: "Lin Yu." ”

Then, the man gradually got closer, and Youwei saw that he had long hair and sideburns, and his clothes were fluttering, not Lin Yu.

The person who came was none other than Wen Cang.

It turned out that the secret rooms and secret passages in this Linglong Villa were crisscrossed, and Wen Cang, in order not to disturb the guards, went to this dark room through the secret passages in his room.

Wen Cang opened his mouth and said, "The younger sister of the Yu family seems to be caught in a nightmare. ”

Yu Yao said: "This dark room is pitch black, what can you do without dreaming?" ”

Wen Cang said: "Brother Yu, I came here for this. It was late at night, and my grandmother was already asleep, so she couldn't take care of it for the time being. I have brought Bai Fu and Red Dye to be here in your place, and you will quickly follow me down the mountain. ”

Yu Yao said: "Then how will you explain to her tomorrow?" ”

Wen Cang said: "I am in a hurry, I can't take care of so much!" ”

At this moment, Youwei had come to her senses and asked, "Will Bai Fu and Hong Dye be affected?" ”

Wen Cang said: "There is Dai'er here to take care of them, without further ado, let's go!" ”

Wen Cang hurriedly took Youwei and Yu Yao down the mountain through the secret passage.

Who knew that as soon as he walked out of the exit of the secret passage at the foot of the mountain, he saw the fire flickering around Linglong Mountain, and the imperial court did not retreat, but instead camped around, and set up checkpoints everywhere.

Yu Yao said: "It seems that the Han is bound to win the eldest princess." ”

Youwei said, "What should we do now?" ”

Wen Cang said: "The only way to do this is to return to Linglong Villa, and I will first place you in the secret room of my study, and then slowly figure it out." ”

Yu Yao said: "That's the only way." ”

Yu Yao thought to himself, this exquisite mountain villa is very unusual, countless secret passages and secret rooms, blame himself for having too little experience in the rivers and lakes, and break in so recklessly. Now there is no need to mention the exquisite dice, it is not easy to save the lives of himself and Youwei.

So, Yu Yao and Youwei returned to Linglong Villa with Wen Cang.

The three of them had just walked outside Wen Cang's study, when suddenly, the dark room lit up.

The three of them knew that something was wrong, and turned around to leave.

"Stop."

The tone was calm and firm, and he was confident.

It was the voice of the old lady.

"Cang'er, please come in with the princess and the colt."

The matter has come to this, so I have to walk in.

The old lady sat in front, and Wen Dai stood behind the old lady with a sad face.

"What? The princess and the colt think we are not well entertained, are we leaving? ”

After that, there was another sneer.

Yu Yao followed the prestige, and sure enough, his teeth were like pearls, not like an ordinary old woman.

Yu Yao straightened out her clothes and said: "The old lady has a good way of governing the family, but she doesn't want to be sick and bedridden for a few years, and everyone is lazy, so ungrateful and betrayal." ”

The old lady said: "How are the subordinates of Linglong Villa ungrateful and betraying the master, and please teach the master of the horse." ”

Yu Yao smiled: "If I heard correctly, it was obviously house arrest at that time. Even if you don't have a high house with warm pillows, fine clothes and food, you should be spacious and bright, and you should have three meals and clothing, right? But the men imprisoned us in the same place where their brother and sister were imprisoned when they were stubborn. If this matter is spread, won't it damage the face of Linglong Villa? ”

The old lady also smiled and said, "The master of the horse has learned a lesson." Cang'er, add a candle and two futons. You personally accompanied the two distinguished guests back to rest. ”

Wen Cang said helplessly: "Yes, grandmother." ”

The old lady said again: "Dai'er, you also go back to the room, and you are not allowed to come out again." ”

Wen Dai lowered her eyebrows and said softly, "Yes, grandmother." ”

A light is like a bean, like a heart flower.

After the lights and candles were lit, Yu Yao and Youwei saw the appearance of the "dark room" for the first time.

Youwei said: "I didn't expect that the Linglong Villa made of gold and jade would have such a decaying place. ”

Yu Yao said: "That's nature, even if it is a magnificent palace, there are some barren forbidden gardens, and there are many unsightly things buried. ”

The mottled walls are crisscrossed by ravines, and there are some small pits deep into the walls.

Yu Yao's gaze gently swept across the four walls, and said, "I just said it casually, but now it seems that this room is really the place where Wen Cang and Wen Dai were confined when they were children. You see, these traces look like they were left by hanging calligraphy. When I was a child, there was also such a room in my house, with the "Mourning Jiangnan Fu" by the ancestors of the Yu family. The boat road is poor, and the stars and Han can not take the chacha; The wind is soaring, and Penglai has no time to come. ”

Youwei pointed to a few scattered marks on the wall and said, "What is that?" ”

Yu Yao said: "Maybe it was accidentally drawn when I practiced the sword." ”

Youwei said faintly: "It's neatly drawn." ”

Yu Yao said: "Are you still hungry?" I finally went out, but I forgot to find something to eat for you. ”

Youwei said: "Don't worry, although I am greedy, I have a benefit that others do not have." ”

Yu Yao said: "What else is there besides eating only meat?" ”

Youwei said: "Eating meat is a feature, but it is not a benefit. The good thing for me is that when I have enough to eat, I can go hungry for three days and be fine. Of course, when I say hungry, I don't mean that I don't have to eat anything, but that I don't have so much meat. ”

Yu Yao said: "You are really the life of a noble man, fortunately in the body of Sister Yong'an, if you go to an ordinary farmer's house, you can't open meat once a year, what should I do?" ”

Youwei said: "Then maybe I can teach them to raise some pigs, cattle, sheep, fish and shrimp, and get rich and well-off." There is a sentence in "Daya Minlao" that 'the people also work hard, and they can be well-off', do you remember? ”

Yu Yao said: "You always say that you don't know poetry books, why do you remember the sentences of the Book of Songs so clearly?" ”

Youwei said: "What I said about not knowing poetry and books is compared with you literati, I am in our country, and I can be regarded as excellent in character and learning." Not only the "Book of Songs", but also mentioned in the "Rites and Fortunes". These have to be tested. ”

Yu Yao said: "I sometimes face you, and I will always be confused. Forget that you are you, not Yong'an. Now I have heard you say a lot about your hometown, but it is clearer than before. ”

Youwei said: "You also have times when you are confused? Then it is not in vain that I have been studying this for a long time. I have heard from the people in the palace that the eldest princess of Yong'an loves sweets, and I will inevitably have to pretend to be one. But I really don't like to eat that sweet and greasy thing, I feel full after two bites, how can I eat meat? If you don't eat meat for a while, you'll be hungry again! ”

Yu Yao said thoughtfully: "Yong'an, she loves sweets, maybe it's because she lives too hard. ”

Yu Yao turned around and sat on the futon, and then spoke again: "Just now, I took a closer look at the old lady's teeth, and sure enough, it was as you said. ”

Youwei said: "Not only that, but I also have a new discovery this time. ”

Yu Yao said: "What is it?" ”

Youwei said: "Do you remember the first time I saw the old lady, I told you, did you smell a strange smell?" ”

Yu Yao said: "The fairy music ballad itself is a place for feasting and drinking, and the aroma is pervasive, where is it strange?" ”

Youwei said, "No. Although the fragrance of Xianle is pervasive, the aroma is the smell of jasmine extract, which is very subtle. It wasn't until the old lady arrived that there was a mixed aroma in the room. For example, the smell of incense and sandalwood mixed with rouge powder. ”

Yu Yao said: "Your nose is upside down, but I didn't notice it." ”

Youwei continued: "Originally, it was common for the elderly to love burning incense and praying, but the old lady was sick in bed all the year round, and it seemed that there would be no opportunity to worship the Buddha. ”

Yu Yao said: "Yes, and since it is a perennial bedridden, it must be indispensable for decoction, but there are so many mixed smells, but the aroma of medicine is missing." It must have been deliberately done by that person in order to cover up the fat powder on his original body. ”

Youwei said: "Not only that, but in Wen Cang's study just now, the fragrance of incense and sandalwood from before is gone. Only a little fat powder aroma remains. ”

Yu Yao said: "It must be difficult to be thoughtful between hurry. ”

Youwei said: "The aroma of that fat powder is also unusual. I thought about it for a long time before I thought about it, I smelled it once before. ”

Yu Yao said: "Is it when we first entered the village?" ”

Youwei smiled: "It turns out that you have thought of it a long time ago. I had only smelled the aroma on Umon beside Winde. ”

Yu Yao said: "Later, whenever the old lady appeared, Wumeng was not by Wen Dai's side. ”

Youwei said: "It seems that the old lady must be pretending to be Wumeng." Because her usual incense is too special, she has to use incense and sandalwood to cover her clothes. Since Hongyan has always been with Wumeng as his companion, Wen Cang took her here to be my stand-in, so Wumeng naturally knows. ”

Yu Yao said: "It seems that the truth is about to come out, but I don't understand what the motive is." ”

Yu Yao's gaze fell on the wall again.

At this moment, he was sitting on the futon, far away from the wall, and he couldn't help but be in a trance.

Youwei followed his gaze, and there was nothing special, so she asked, "What are you looking at?" ”

Yu Yao said: "I'm looking at a few passages on this wall. It doesn't seem like it was a mistake in sword practice. ”

Youwei said: "Indeed, how can the wrong stroke of the sword practice be so neat? ”

Yu Yao suddenly said in surprise: "I know!" This is one. ”

Yu Yao said as he got up and walked to the wall.

Youwei said, "What? One? ”

Yu Yao said: "Not bad, one." You see, there are long and short vertical paths, and there are no rules, but the horizontal roads are all the same length and short. ”

Youwei said: "You mean that this is not a random mark, but has a deep meaning?" But what is this, one and what? ”

Yu Yao said: "Look at the distance between these two horizontal roads, it happens to be two ones. That is to say, between these two ones, there are two more words. ”

Yu Yao pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "Quickly bring the candle." ”

Hearing this, Youwei quickly took the candle and lit it on the wall.

Yu Yao stretched out two fingers of his right hand and tapped the dust off the wall.

Youwei read: "A leaf, a sound, the empty steps drip to the light." What is it? ”

Yu Yao said: "This is Wen Tingyun's words. ”

Youwei said, "And what about the rest?" ”

Yu Yao said: "Look. ”

After a while, the horizontal passages on the wall were filled in by Yu Yao.

From top to bottom:

A foot of crimson is better than dust, and the old is not as good as the new.

The head of the ridge is the place where it separates, and it is a pity not to murmur all night.

A leaf, a sound, the empty steps drip to the light.

Don't drink and don't Huaiyin City at night, and the moon shines on the high-rise building.

The first, second, and fourth sentences are all arranged in a regular manner, but the third sentence is a few words backwards.

After writing, Yu Yao took two steps back, shook his head, and said, "No, could it be that I thought wrong?" ”

Youwei said: "Maybe that's how it is. ”

Yu Yao said: "No way. Since Linglong Villa was built by Wen Tingyun, these traces may also be the organs he left behind. What kind of character is Wen Tingyun? The writing is superb. His shots must be neat and meticulous, leaving no flaws. I must have thought wrong. ”

Youwei said: "It's really getting more and more like an escape room." ”

Vicky put the candle back in its place and sat back on the futon.

Yu Yao also returned to the futon and sat down dejectedly.

Youwei saw that he was depressed and lost, so she intended to explain.

"Don't think about it. Since, as you said, it may be a mechanism left by Wen Tingyun, it is not so easy to solve. ”

Yu Yao said: "What do you always say about escape rooms, what is it?" ”

Youwei said: "At first, it was unlocked through various furnishings in the room, and then mechanical mechanisms, sound and light effects were added, and then there were actors accompanying the acting, and clues can be found from their bodies or conversations. ”

Yu Yao was confused, and he didn't understand a word.

Youwei smiled: "It's a pity that I was busy with the college entrance examination before, so I didn't go out with them much, otherwise maybe it would come in handy." ”

Yu Yao looked at a few lines of poetry on the wall and said, "What went wrong?" ”
