Chapter 242: The Night Banquet of the Wealthy Family (6)
"Don't be mentally burdened, if you don't want to interact with these people, you can ignore them when the banquet starts. At the moment, the time is not early, you go home alone, it is inevitably a little dangerous, it is better to stay here for the night."
Xiao Biyun heard my tone a little timid, and immediately understood what I was worried about.
"Miss Xiao, I appreciate your kindness, but I have to go back, my wife is still waiting for me at home, I don't want her to worry about me" I shook my head and refused again.
Her attitude towards me was so enthusiastic that it made me feel like I was dreaming.
Not to mention, she also tried her best to keep me and let me participate in this banquet.
In the final analysis, she and I just met in Pingshui, and in terms of status, there was a huge difference.
I couldn't understand why she thought so highly of herself.
"Since that's the case, I won't be reluctant, but the master is here, let's have a glass of wine and leave, at this time, the guests are almost already here" This time, Xiao Biyun did not continue to stay.
As soon as I heard this, I felt a sense of relief.
"Thanks to Miss Shaw, I'll have a drink."
It's all said and done, and it's hard for me to refuse, in that case, it's too impersonal.
Xiao Qianyun saw that I agreed, and made a gesture of please.
I nodded and followed her.
The moment I came out of the bedroom, a biting chill swept over my body, and I shivered coldly.
"It's cold!" I shuddered and looked around.
The corridor is wide and long.
As far as the eye can see, there is no end in sight.
To my surprise, the lights in this corridor were dark red.
When illuminated by this light, the white walls on the left and right sides also seemed to change color.
And, under the illumination of the light, I could vaguely see something on the walls on the left and right sides.
I squinted my eyes and looked closely.
For this reason, I also deliberately leaned to the side.
On the wall, there seemed to be one painting after another, on the left and right.
In addition, on the left side of each painting, there are several rows of vertical text, corresponding to the sentence from left to right, and when the word is finished, the back is the pattern of the drawing.
Although the pattern on each painting is very different, I always have a sense of déjà vu after looking at it.
I seem to have seen it somewhere, and many times.
Seeing this, I stopped and leaned over to the wall, wanting to take a closer look at the paintings.
The patterns reflected on the walls under the dim red light, although familiar to me, looked extremely uncomfortable.
At this time, a few lines of small words also caught my eye.
It reads: Sell yourself to bury your father
Han Dongyong, poor family. His father died, and he was buried with a loan of money.
and went to pay for the work, and met a woman on the way, and asked to be an eternal wife.
To the head of the house, let the weaving of three hundred horses, is back.
It was completed in January, returned to the Huaiyin Club, and then left forever.
When I saw these lines, I was stunned.
I panicked inexplicably, and without thinking about it, I took a few steps forward.
Bury your child and serve her mother......
100 miles of negative rice......
Carved wood......
I just glanced at the rest of the paintings.
Every time I look at it, my face turns a little whiter.
After only three of them, my legs went limp, and I almost stumbled and fell.
Looking at Xiao Biyun, who was getting farther and farther away from me, I only felt that my heart was about to pop out.
It's no wonder that when I first looked at these paintings, I always had a sense of déjà vu.
It turns out that these are twenty-four filial pieties!
On weekdays, if someone dies, these patterns will be printed on the coffin!
Where the hell is this?
Why is there twenty-four filial piety on the wall?
I didn't dare to look at the wall, and my whole brain suddenly "buzzed", and countless question marks flashed in front of my eyes in an instant.
"Xiao ...... Miss Xiao......! I shouted in a trembling voice, almost at the top of my voice.
"Master, what's wrong?"
In a moment, Xiao Biyun's voice came to my ears very clearly.
Then, there was a sound of very light footsteps.
"Miss Xiao, the wall, on the wall......" I looked at her, tremblingly raised my finger and pointed towards the wall, trying to say something, but in the end, out of fear, I didn't say it.
"What's wrong with the walls?"
As she spoke, Xiao Biyun had already walked in front of me, she glanced at the wall, and asked in a puzzled tone.
"Can't you see! On the wall, why is there a pattern of twenty-four filial pieties, and where is it here, answer me! When I saw her innocent expression, I was angry.
The next moment, I roared at her, almost using all my strength.
"Where is there any pattern of twenty-four filial piety, I see, it must be that you are hallucinating, no wonder, after all, you were frightened before, and it is inevitable that you will have some hallucinations" Xiao Biyun shook his head, and specially motioned to me, looking towards the wall.
"Hallucinations, how is this possible!" I scoffed at her words and turned my head away as I shouted.
But when I looked at the wall again, I froze.
On the wall, how empty it is, not to mention the pattern, there is not even a stain.
I blinked my eyes vigorously, thinking that I had seen it wrong, but what made me sweat coldly was that the twenty-four filial piety patterns that covered almost the entire wall just now seemed to have evaporated from the world, and in the blink of an eye, they disappeared without a trace, as if they had never appeared.
"This ......"
I looked at the white walls, and for a moment the six gods were gone.
"Hey, you're so tired, why don't you go back to your room and rest again!" Xiao Biyun sighed and made a gesture to take me back to the bedroom.
"No...... I don't want to go back to my room, I want to go home......" My head suddenly shook like a rattle, I don't want to stay in this hellish place for a minute.
"Then come with me, this time, don't be suspicious" Xiao Biyun's expression was very helpless, invisibly, with a hint of apology.
When I heard this, I was like a nodding machine, just nodding my head and not even saying anything.
Then, I followed closely behind Xiao Biyun, and I didn't dare to look at anything except in front of me.
In this way, after walking for about a minute, I finally left this eerie corridor and came to the corner of the stairs.
I don't know how long the staircase is, and when I look down from where I stand, it is bottomless, and there is not a single light on the staircase, which makes me feel a little uneasy.
"Let's go"
Seeing me standing still at the stairs, Xiao Biyun shouted.
At the same time, take my hand and go down.
Before I could react, my feet were already on the stairs.
The moment I stepped into the stairs, my vision was suddenly enveloped in darkness.
I couldn't see anything, so I could only let Xiao Biyun take my hand and go down.
On several occasions, my feet were empty, and if she hadn't pulled me, I guess I would have rolled straight down the stairs. (To be continued)
