Chapter 213: You can only leave if you win
Su Muge and Quan Ming have already changed into the people's regular clothes.
Manyun Villa is halfway up the mountain, and the two of them are walking on the mountain road leading to Manyun Villa, and the surroundings are frighteningly quiet.
"I heard that this Manyun Villa is the largest village in the rivers and lakes of Chu Kingdom, and you have made a lot of friends in Xiliang Country over the years."
Quan Ming walked in front with a torch, and when he heard Su Muge say this, he turned around and stretched out his hand to her. "Hold my hand, the road is too dark to walk."
Su Muge picked up a half-human-high wooden stick on the ground. "No, it's not like I haven't been a military doctor before, and I've walked more difficult roads."
Kwon retracted his hand carelessly. "It was also a coincidence that I met that friend, at that time I couldn't find any news of you in Xiliang Kingdom, so I thought that you might have gone to another country, so I sent someone to inquire secretly, and I met that friend by coincidence."
After a pause, he added: "There are many wild beasts here at night, which is a natural barrier, and there is no need to waste manpower guarding them. ”
While talking, the two arrived outside the gate of Manyun Villa, and under a row of tall lanterns, there were five steps and a row of guards.
As soon as Quan Ming and Su Muge came out, the guards looked at them vigilantly. "Who's coming?"
Quan Ming stepped forward with a torch and took out a jade pendant. "We are friends of the owner of Manyun Villa, and we have tokens as proof."
Hearing Quan Ming say this, the guard took a piece of jade pendant from his hand.
"Wait a moment here." With that, the guard turned around and entered the villa.
It didn't take long for the guards to walk out.
"The owner invites the two guests in."
"Thank you."
A guard led them into Manyun Villa, unlike the bright hall outside, the light in Manyun Villa was much darker, and the moon was hidden in the clouds tonight, so the visibility was even lower.
"Two distinguished guests, the owner of the village has rested at this time, and the guest room has been prepared for the distinguished guests, two of you, please."
The guards led them into a dim courtyard, and Su Muge could see a few maids busy in the courtyard from a distance, it seemed that no one often lived in this place before, otherwise they would not have hurriedly cleaned up at this time.
"It's us who bothered the owner."
Manyun Villa has prepared two guest rooms, and before entering the house, Quan Ming came to Su Muge's side and whispered: "After entering the house for a while, don't leave the house before dawn, if you must go out, come to me next door, and I will accompany you." ”
"Okay." Su Muge nodded and walked into a room on the right.
"The slave Wanyun was sent by the owner of the village to serve the guests, if the guests have anything to want, just tell Wanyun that it is." The maid in the house saw Su Muge walk in and bowed slightly.
"Thank you."
After a while, a maid walked outside the house with a food box. "The owner of the village was afraid that the guests would not have dinner at night, so he specially asked the slave to bring dinner."
Su Muge glanced at the food box in her hand and nodded. "It's bothering the owner."
The maid walked into the house with a food box and put the food on the table.
Two meat and one vegetable, it looks like it has just been made.
"Guests, please use it slowly."
After setting the supper, the maid withdrew.
Su Muge glanced at the food on the table but didn't move his chopsticks.
She quickly swept around the guest room, the house was very simple in decoration, and the ornaments were not expensive, but she always thought that your room looked a little weird.
Two quarters of an hour later.
"Honorable guest, hot water has been prepared for you, do you need to take a bath?"
After a few days of bumpy rides, it would be very pleasant to be able to take a hot bath.
"Okay."
Before the maid came in, she picked up the chopsticks to stir up the rice in the bowl, and put two chopsticks in the rice bowl.
The two maids who were sent to serve her kept their heads slightly bowed from beginning to end, and they didn't look at Su Muge more.
After the hot water was brought in, the two packed up the dishes and chopsticks and went out.
Su Muge stood up and walked into the clean room, locked the door and window from the inside, and then removed the clothes on her body, but she didn't take them off, but entered the water in her middle clothes.
When he came out of the clean room, it was already two quarters of an hour later, and when he heard the movement, Wan Yun came in to pack up his things and went out.
Su Muge was lying on the bed, very tired, but he didn't sleep.
The candles in the room had been extinguished, and it was pitch black, and she looked at the pitch-black tent and slowly closed her eyes.
"The leaves are pale, the white dew is frost, the so-called Yiren ~~~ is ...... on the water side"
In the quiet night sky, a melodious but mournful song sounded faintly accompanied by the low and ethereal sound of the cave flute.
Su Muge, who had been sleeping very lightly, woke up instantly, not sure if the voice was a dream or a reality.
After a moment of frustration, she sat up from her bed and listened.
"The so-called Yiren, in the ...... of the water" The song came again, and Su Muge was sure that the voice was true.
She walked barefoot to the closed window, and the song became more and more real.
Who has the leisure to sing this big night?
Su Muge stretched out her hand and was about to push the window open, but as soon as she moved, the melodious singing stopped abruptly and was replaced by a sharp scream.
"Ahh
Su Muge's heart jumped, and goosebumps stood up all over his body.
"What are you doing, let go of me, let go of me!"
"Miss, run quickly, don't worry about me, run, run!"
The screaming sound almost broke the sound of people's hearts inexplicably, who is this woman?
Su Muge wanted to push the door out, but she hesitated when she thought of what Quan Ming said before, she was not familiar with this place, and it was indeed too risky to go out recklessly.
It didn't take long for the woman's voice to suddenly disappear.
Outside was restored to its original tranquility, as if nothing had happened.
Su Muge went back to the bed and lay down, but he couldn't continue to fall asleep, and his mind kept replaying the singing and screaming just now as if he had been under a spell.
It wasn't until dawn that she fell asleep in a daze.
When he opened his eyes again, it was already bright outside, and Su Muge sat up and just put on his clothes, the door of the house was pushed open, and Quan Ming, dressed in a moon-white robe, walked in.
"Wake up."
Su Muge nodded.
The maid came in with water and waited for Su Muge to wash, and Quan Ming sat aside and drank tea.
"Bring in my breakfast."
"Yes, Childe."
The maids brought breakfast into the house and then withdrew, and closed the door.
"You definitely didn't eat last night, these breakfasts are fine, eat some." Quan Ming picked up the chopsticks, picked up a bun, and took a bite.
Su Muge also picked up chopsticks and took a piece of jujube paste cake, and quietly put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it before opening his mouth to eat it.
"Did you hear anything last night?" Quan Ming put down his chopsticks and said suddenly.
Su Muge raised his eyes and looked at him. "You ask that, to prove that you heard it too."
"Singing, a woman."
Su Muge nodded.
Quan Ming's fingertip taps on the desktop. "I don't think we'll be able to leave that easily."
Su Muge put down his chopsticks and frowned slightly.
"Childe, the young lady can have breakfast, and the owner of the village invites the two of you to go to Laiyun Hall to see you." As soon as Quan Ming's words fell, the maid's voice sounded outside the door.
Quan Ming raised his eyebrows at Su Muge.
Su Muge put down the teacup and stood up. "Crow's beak."
“……”
Walking in Manyun Villa during the day feels completely different from that at night.
During the day, Manyun Villa looks like a place for a relaxing holiday.
But similar to the night, there really don't seem to be many people in this Manyun Villa, even the maids are rare.
Wan Yun led them through a long verandah and walked to a large compound.
Wan Yun stopped outside the courtyard gate. "Two distinguished guests, please."
Quan Ming walked in front of Su Muge and entered the courtyard.
The yard is full of all kinds of greenery, which makes the yard look full of life, but at night, it feels a little scary.
There was only one building in the courtyard that looked like a cylinder, with a green tile roof and a hat on top.
"Come in, two of you."
As soon as the two of them reached the door, a deep and powerful voice came from inside the room.
"I'm bothering the owner." Quan Ming stepped forward and pushed the door open, and Su Muge walked in after him.
Walking into the house, Su Muge was slightly surprised, originally thought that this yard was just strange, but it was also indescribably weird, there was nothing in the whole house, only floors and wall tiles.
A tall, thin, straight figure stood in the middle of the room, and when he heard the noise, he slowly turned to look at them.
"In the Lower Manyun Villa, the owner of the villa, Wei Xian." Wei Xian spoke first.
Su Muge's gaze quickly swept over him, he was wearing a dark black power suit, a jade belt of the same color around his waist, a pair of thick and thick eyebrows, a straight and upright nose, a pair of eyes as sharp as an eagle, and when looking at people, there was a deterrent of oppression.
"I'm bothering Master Wei."
"You must be wondering why I let you be here."
"Please also ask Lord Wei Zhuang to explain."
Wei Xian stood with his hands in his hands. "Although you are friends of my Wei Xian's friends, the rules of my Manyun Villa cannot be broken, but anyone who stays in my Manyun Villa must win the old man before leaving on the second day."
Kwon Ming had a light smile on his face. "I've already disturbed the owner, wouldn't it be too rude to hurt the owner again?"
Su Muge glanced at Quan Ming, is this kid sure to win against Wei Xian?
Wei Xian's face was already square, and when he was expressionless, he looked like he was unhappy, and when he was unhappy, it looked a little scary, like now.
Su Muge silently took a step back.
"Boy, you're not old, your tone is not small, do you know why there are almost no people in Manyun Villa? It's because everyone knows the rule of the old man, so they don't dare to come at all, and even if they come, they never dare to stay overnight. ”
"Master Wei said, how do you compare?"
"In half an hour, if you can get the old man out of this door, you will win."
Su Muge's eyes swept around the room, no wonder there was nothing in this room, it turned out to be for people to fight.
"Before Bisei, I dared to ask Master Wei, if you lose, is there a second choice?"
