"Li Bai, which bedroom did you come out of just now?" asked Wang Lun.

"I don't know whose bedroom it is, there were so many people just now that I can't ask. I'll take you there now!" After speaking, Li Bai left the Wang family library with everyone.

When Li Bai came, he had already memorized the path, so he quickly took everyone to the room that he had just jumped out of.

"Isn't this the senior brother's room?" As soon as they arrived in this room, all the senior brothers exclaimed.

"Senior brother?" Li Bai was very curious when he saw everyone's reaction.

Seeing that Li Bai was so curious, Wang Jing pulled him aside and whispered: "Li Bai, seeing that you are so curious, then the little fairy will tell you about our senior brother." ”

When Li Bai heard this, he hurriedly responded, "Okay." ”

"My father, Yuxiao Dragon King, has accepted a total of seven apprentices in his life, the second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh senior brothers, you already know them, but you haven't seen them yet. The eldest brother's name is Wang Wen, and he is the son of my third uncle, who is also my cousin. Senior Brother is my father's first apprentice, and also my father's most valued apprentice, originally the head of the Wang Mansion also intended to be inherited by him, but fifteen years ago, my father was killed by a traitor, on the day of the funeral, the senior brother suddenly disappeared, and has not been heard from since. ”

"Didn't you go to him?"

At that time, almost the entire Wang Mansion was dispatched, but there was no news after searching for many days. My father had just passed away, and my eldest brother was supposed to inherit the position of head of the family, but he did not disappear, and we wondered if he was also killed by a traitor. The head of the Wang Mansion died and disappeared, and our brothers and sisters were still young, and the Wang Mansion was almost in chaos. Fortunately, there are still a few senior brothers presiding, so that the Wang Mansion will not fall. ”

"Oh, I see. Li Bai didn't expect that the Wang family, the owner of Peach Blossom Tan, would have such a disaster.

As he was talking, at this time, Wang Lun asked the second senior brother, "Second senior brother, who is usually responsible for cleaning this room of the senior brother?"

The second senior brother replied, "Young master, the senior brother's room has always been cleaned by Xiaoxi. "After that, the second senior brother ordered someone to find Xiao Xilai.

Soon, Xiaoxi came over with broken steps, and it was an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl.

Wang Lun asked Xiaoxi, "Xiaoxi, how often do you clean Senior Brother's room?"

Xiao Xi saw that the young master and the senior brothers were very serious, so he became nervous: "Go back to the young master...... This room is swept every three days. ”

"Did you notice anything unusual when you usually cleaned this room?"

"Strange? No...... No, this room hasn't been inhabited for more than ten years, what will happen...... What's so unusual?" Xiao Xi was asked by Wang Lun like this, and she couldn't help but think of the demons and monsters in her heart, and immediately became afraid.

Wang Lun saw that her face had changed, so he said, "Well, that's nothing, Xiaoxi, after you open the door, go back to work first." ”

After sending Xiaoxi away, Wang Lun entered the room with everyone, Li Bai pointed to a big box in the corner of the bed and said, "Brother Wang, that is the entrance to the secret passage." ”

Wang Lun walked over, opened the lid of the box, and saw that there were several sets of old clothes inside.

The second senior brother looked at the clothes and said, "Those are the clothes that the senior brother used to wear, and they haven't been touched for fifteen years. ”

Wang Lun said "um", picked up his clothes and put them on the bed, and then paced back and forth in the room.

Seeing this, Wang Jing said, "Brother, aren't we going to the secret passage now?"

Wang Lun didn't make a sound, still pacing back and forth.

Seeing that Wang Lun was silent, Wang Jing wanted to ask again, but was stopped by the second senior brother, "Jingjing, don't disturb the young master, the young master is thinking about things." ”

Since the second senior brother said so, Wang Jing stopped making a sound.

After a long time, Wang Lun sighed lightly.

The second senior brother seemed to understand why Wang Lun sighed, and he also sighed, and said to Wang Lun: "Young master, I know what you think? ”

Wang Lun was stunned for a moment, and smiled bitterly: "Second Senior Brother, do you think it's not him?"

At this time, the third senior brother next to him couldn't help but interject: "I also know what you want to say? Young master, I don't think it's him!"

When Wang Jing heard them say this, she suddenly understood. "Brother, I thought you were thinking something? It turns out that you are suspecting that the one Li Bai met in the passage is the senior brother. ”

"Jingjing, haven't you ever doubted it?" Wang Lun asked rhetorically.

"Nope!" Wang Jing replied very firmly, "Brother, the senior brother treats our father as his own father, and treats our two brothers and sisters like his own brothers and sisters, how could he betray his father and betray the Wang family?"

"Yes!" The third senior brother interjected and said, "Young master, the senior brother is a person as frank as the master, and I absolutely don't believe that he will betray the master." ”

Wang Lun nodded and said, "Yes, I know very well what Senior Brother is, so I don't believe that the person in the secret path is him, but now there are a few coincidences that make me puzzled." First, this person is very familiar with our Wang Mansion, including the Lost Forest. Second, the entrance to this secret passage is inside the elder brother's bedroom. Third, do you remember the few flying knives that killed the two sect masters of the Three Eagle Sect that day?

As soon as Wang Lun said this, Wang Jing and several senior brothers fell into deep thought.

Indeed, these coincidences all point to the elder brother.

After a while, Li Bai saw that everyone didn't speak, so he said to Wang Lun: "Brother Wang, it's better to find evidence than to guess, let's go down to the secret passage first, maybe there is the answer you want." ”

When Wang Lun heard this, he felt that it was also reasonable, so he said: "Okay, then let's go down and walk!" After that, he returned to the box, jumped in, opened the bottom plate, and saw a secret passage appear in front of him.

"Let's go, everyone be careful. With that, Wang Lun lit a torch and took the lead into the secret passage. The crowd also lit torches and walked in.

The secret passage was twisted and turned, and everyone walked in a hurry, and after walking for about a quarter of an hour, they came to the big hole broken by Li Bai, and the cave was faintly revealing a chill.

Without delay, they jumped over the big hole and continued on, and soon came to the gravel.

I saw that the rubble had blocked the passage and could not move forward.

Wang Lun did not hesitate and said, "Move!" I started to lift the rubble.

Because the passage can only be passed by one person, everyone can only move these gravels hand by hand, and the big hole that Li Bai broke can just be used for stacking.

Half an hour passed, and the passage was finally opened.

And the crowd went on their way.

After walking more than 200 steps, I suddenly saw a small house dug out on the edge of the passage, about two zhang long and wide, with some straw mats, bowls and pots and other daily necessities, but it was full of dust, and no one should have lived in it for a long time.

Looking at these, Wang Lun sighed: "I can't imagine that there is such a secret passage under my Wang Mansion, and the person who digs the road is really suspicious. ”

As she was talking, Wang Jing suddenly shouted: "Brother, look, what's on that straw mat? It seems to be some human bones!"

Wang Lun followed the direction of Wang Jing's finger, and sure enough, he saw a white bone exposed on the edge of the rolled straw mat, which should be a human foot bone.

At this time, the third senior brother had already rushed over with an arrow, took out his matching sword and slowly picked up the straw mat.

As soon as the straw mat was opened, a highly calcified skeleton appeared in front of everyone, it seemed that this person had been dead for many years, and if it wasn't for the cold underground, it might have been a pile of ashes.

Suddenly, the second senior brother shouted: "Senior brother, this is senior brother!" Then the second senior brother hid his face and began to cry.

The third senior brother hurriedly asked, "Second senior brother, how can this be the senior brother?"

"Yes, Second Senior Brother, this can't be Senior Brother, right?" all the Senior Brothers said in unison.

Wang Lun also said: "Second Senior Brother, don't cry first, you first explain what is going on?"

The second senior brother put away his low sobs at this time, and said in a sad voice: "Young master, do you still remember the token of the head of our Wang Mansion?"

"Of course I remember, but didn't it disappear with the elder brother fifteen years ago?"

"Look, isn't that?" the second senior brother pointed to the skeleton's sternum.

At this time, everyone saw clearly that under the sternum of the skeleton, there was indeed a white token, about four inches long and two inches wide. Because the color of the token is similar to the white bone, and it has fallen into the ribcage, it really can't be seen if you don't look carefully.

Wang Lun hurriedly stepped forward, took out the token from under the sternum of the skeleton, and took a closer look, it was really the token of the head of the Wang Mansion!

"It's really a family master token, so this ...... Then this must be the ...... It's Senior Brother! Senior Brother......" Wang Lun couldn't help but feel sad and wept.

When Wang Jing and several senior brothers saw this, they couldn't help but cry bitterly.

Suddenly, there was a cry in the secret passage.
