Chapter 428: Taste

I don't know how long it took, but I woke up from my slumber with a strong headache.

"Why does my head hurt so much...... I muttered to myself as I opened my eyes, and a burst of aroma came over my nose, not like flowers, but a strange woody scent that permeated the surroundings.

I rubbed my temples vigorously, got out of bed, and looked closely, and saw that I was in a large square room, with beautiful carved patterns on the brown stone walls on all four walls, and beautiful wooden furniture standing around it.

What struck me as strange was that the material of these wooden furniture looked anything but ordinary, and they all looked golden, with a faint hint of gold thread.

"Is this smell coming from the furniture?" I said to myself.

At this moment, the voice of the leader of the Yang Shi came from outside the house, and he walked to the door with heavy steps, and said with a smile: "You are still in the gold business, I don't know this." These pieces of furniture are made of fine golden silk wood, and their value is no cheaper than gold. ”

Hearing the words of the leader of the Yang Priests, I felt as if I had heard this name somewhere, but I couldn't quite remember it, so I just covered my swollen head and said, "What's the matter, why did I sleep here, I ...... last night"

I was just about to remember last night's events, but I was interrupted by the Yang Shi leader's words: "You drank too much last night, and I sent you here." Come on, get some water......"

As he spoke, the leader of the Yang Shi took out the hand behind his back, and in his hand he held a delicate glass with clear water in it.

He walked up to me with the water, and looking at the water in the glass in front of me, I vaguely remembered the scene from last night......

I thought to myself, was I being calculated by this old fox again last night, could it be that it was the glass of wine in his hand that was really mixed with things? Or are there two glasses of wine at all......

Thinking of this, my heart was suddenly relieved, and I stretched out my hand to push away the water that the leader of the Yang Shi handed to me: "Where are my parents, I want to see them." ”

"Unfortunately...... the leader of the Yang Shi said with a feigned pity, "they are not here now, they went out for a walk just now." Speaking of which, the second elder is really in good health, he got up early in the morning, ate something, and let the second night accompany them to the mountain to breathe fresh air. I guess I won't be able to come back for a while, why don't you eat something and wait for them? ”

"No, I'm not hungry, I want to walk around......" said, I felt a little strange in my heart, obviously my parents are not very active, my father used to go out to play chess with the neighbor's uncle, and my mother likes to watch TV at home, knit some sweaters or something, how can there be such leisure and elegance now.

No, the leader of the Yang Priests must be lying again......

But why did he prevent me from meeting my parents? Could it be that there is something else hidden in this?

Thinking so, I left the house, and after going out through a long corridor full of rich decorations, I returned to the hall where I had eaten last night. At this time, the hall was empty, and only me and the leader of the Yang Shi stood beside each other.

I looked back at the leader of the Yang Priests who had been following me all this time, and said, "Why, are you going to follow me like this?" Don't you have anything else to deal with? ”

The leader of the Yang Shi lowered his head slightly, looked at the water cup in his hand and said, "I don't say that there are hundreds of rooms here, there are also dozens of compartments, I'm afraid you will get lost." ”

After listening, I responded, "Lost? Even if I get lost, I'm still on your chassis, isn't it possible that you're still afraid of me running? ”

"That's not true, but since you've said so, it's not appropriate for me to follow you like this again, so you can take a look around for yourself first, and I won't accompany you." After saying that, the leader of the Yang Shi turned around and left.

Looking at his slowly disappearing figure, I thought to myself, "It seems that the Yang Leader's motivation for letting me join them is definitely not as simple as he said, there must be something else in this, and my parents have been very strange since I saw them yesterday...... No, I'll have to check ......."

Thinking of this, as soon as the leader of the Yang Shi entered the other door on the side of the hall, I walked briskly towards the door on the left side of the hall, the one that my parents had brought in yesterday.

Pushing open the door, also made of golden silk nanmu, I walked down a long, narrow and winding path. But as I got deeper, a strange feeling hit me.

Because this passage was completely different from the one I had come out of my bedroom before, not only was there no decoration around it, but there was even a faint rancid smell in the air, like the smell of rotting meat.

"No wonder the old fox won't let me come, it's certainly not a good place, it's a prison or something......" I muttered to myself as I walked cautiously.

At that moment, the sound of hurried footsteps echoed through the empty passage, as if someone had entered the passage and was rapidly approaching me.

Hearing this, I hurriedly looked back, and as I had just turned a corner, I could see nothing behind me except the cold walls and candlesticks.

So, I subconsciously quickened my pace and hurriedly walked forward, trying to get out of the passage with the people who came first.

But as my pace increased, the footsteps from behind me became more urgent, as if the other party had come to the corner, and could see me at the first turn.

Now I was even more anxious, and I hurried around like a thief, looking for a place to hide. But because the passage is not too wide, and there are walls on all sides, there is no place to hide.

Just as the other party's footsteps had already come to the corner, I suddenly remembered something, "Yes, I am now ranked fifth in Yangshi, why should I be so weak-hearted." ”

Thinking about it, I hurriedly breathed a long sigh of relief, calmed my anxious mood, and at the same time shook my leather coat with my hand, deliberately slowed down, and slowly walked forward.

Shen ...... Shen Xu, Lord Shen? A man's voice suddenly shouted out behind him, panting.

I pretended to be calm and turned around and said, "That's right, it's me, what's wrong?" ”

As I spoke, I looked up and down at the man standing around the corner panting. He was dressed in an honest brown jacket and a pair of dark jeans, and his thin figure made his clothes look baggy.

After a moment, he gasped and said, "Lord Shen, it was the leader who asked me to come to you, and he said that I would take you to visit here." ”

"Oh, really? It's really bothering the chief......" said this, but thought in his heart, "This old fox, he doesn't spy on me anymore, but he has found a substitute to spy on me......"
