"I'm sorry, Gao Qiuwu."

I was very depressed, "I shouldn't have let you come with me willfully, you are also trapped here, I ......"

"Shui Yue, I said, even if it is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, I will accompany you. Do you think my promise is fake? Gao Qiuwu still held my hand, "Don't think about it anymore, it's not the last moment yet, we shouldn't despair." "

Gao Qiuwu cleaned up the gravel on the ground, and then he sat down with me: "After walking such a long way, are you tired?" Let's take a break and let me figure it out. "

"Gao Qiuwu, if we really can't get out...... I mean if. We're really going to die here, are you afraid? ”

I asked softly.

Gao Qiuwu stared into my eyes and said, "I'm afraid." Really scared. I've run out of ammunition in the field before, but I'm not as scared as I am now. Because I was the only one at that time, I saw through life and death at a very young age, so I didn't care about anything...... But now, I have you by my side, and I don't want you to bury your life in this hellish place in vain! Shuiyue, you can't have an accident, absolutely not! "

Gao Qiuwu suddenly hugged me tightly, I couldn't refuse, I could feel his hands trembling, it turned out that in his heart, I was so important. With tears in my eyes, I said, "Actually, I'm not scared at all now because I'm by your side...... I trust your abilities and we'll all be fine! "

We hugged each other quietly until I said, "Gao Qiuwu, my stomach is hungry......"

Gao Qiuwu took out a piece of chocolate from his pocket: "Fortunately, I like to eat chocolate, so I carry it with me, I gave Yue Ziji a piece before, and now I have one left." "

I divided it into two halves, handed half to Gao Qiuwu, and said with a smile: "Really? I thought that if a girl gave you chocolates at any time, you would have so much on you. "

Gao Qiuwu didn't eat it, and put it away carefully: "That's right, this is also a reason, I can still hold on for a while, this half of it should be left to Shuiyue you, this is my last youth loss fee." "

"Looks like you're proud!"

I feigned anger and said.

"Suiyue, I don't think what you just ate was chocolate, it's ...... Vinegar bar! "

"Who eats your jealousy!" I blushed and raised my hand to hit him.

Gao Qiuwu grabbed my hand steadily, no longer laughed, and said very seriously: "Shui Yue, I hope that after you go out, you can rely on me like now." "

I was stunned for a moment, I lowered my head and didn't speak. If the Shiling people were to descend from the sky now, they would kiss me happily and embrace me in their arms again.

Gao Qiuwu sighed, let go of my hand and laughed self-deprecatingly: "Look what am I thinking? At this time, I am still in the mood to tell you this. "

I held his palm with cold hands: "Gao Qiuwu, actually...... I used to like you very, very much. But we can't go back! "

I'm dreaming again.

In the dream, I walked slowly in the fog, careful step by step, never seeing anyone else, and gradually, my body became tired. Finally, the light came out in front of me, and I approached with joy, the orange lamp quietly illuminated a stone door with bright inscriptions, and the bronze beast ring was shining, exactly the same as the old people's description of the Mu family's mansion. I suppressed the excitement and fear in my heart, stepped forward and gently knocked on the door, and the clanging sound drifted far away.

After waiting for a long time, no one answered. I'm not willing to keep knocking, one after the other, since it led me here, what does it mean not to open the door for me? But this ornate stone door is like a tightly pursed mouth. I kicked in exasperation, and then the door opened, silently. Inside, however, there was no boundless darkness, but a bright hall, like a shadowless lamp in an operating room.

The layout and furnishings in the house are the same as those of Yue's house, the living room is large and elegant, and the table clock with dark red shell is ticking like a countdown, I took out my mobile phone and looked at it, but there is still no signal. The wooden floors are also dark red, well painted, and reflect the light to give off dazzling stars. I looked up at the entrance of the second floor, an opening of a black hole, and such a bright light could not shine there at all.

"Is there anyone there?"

No one answered, only an echo. I waited for a while, sure that no one would come to greet me. Then I decided to walk around and inspect the house, and through the corridor to the dining room, all the scenes were furnished like the Yue family's. Including the sparse white flowers in the yard, pushing the porcelain bottle, the wine cabinet actually gave way to a carved wooden door, and then pushed it open, and entered the kitchen to the antique-style water tank, holding the lid handle. This is the question I've always been curious about, am I really in the Yue family? Then there should be food, I'm starving!

I took a breath and quickly lifted the lid, a foul stench filling my nose, and in a pool of fishy yellow liquid sat a skeleton of white bones, maggots the size of fingers crawling up and down and wriggling...... I quickly closed the lid and threw up on the kitchen table. The bile that spits to the end is bitter and astringent. I staggered to the dining room outside and sat down on a stool, my stomach still cramping.

Before I could catch my breath, I heard footsteps coming towards the dining room, and my heart was nervous again. Who is it? Mrs. Yue, Aunt Hu or Yue Hongxu?

When I saw it, I was shocked: "It's you." "Why did he appear in my hallucinations, yes, I know now that I am in a hallucination.

Gao Qiuwu was even more surprised than me: "Shuiyue, you...... You...... How here! ”

I smiled bitterly, and now I was confused, shook my hand, and said, "Don't talk about me, you were in the secret passage before, why didn't you notice that I disappeared all of a sudden?" "

Gao Qiuwu frowned suspiciously: "Secret way, which secret way?" In the afternoon, Yue Shiyin and I were playing with Yue Ziji. This kid hurts! "

"I don't know." I really don't know if what he said is true or not, so I was in a fantasy in the first place?

"Then why are you here?"

I shook my head to say I didn't know. Gao Qiuwu raised his eyebrows, "You are in a hurry when you come out of the village clinic, what do you know?" ”

I continued to shake my head. He punched me in the arm and said, "I'm here." Then he went to the kitchen, and as he went, he said, "Is there anything to eat, I'm starving." "

Why is he hungry in the illusion?

I remembered the corpse in the water tank, and hurriedly stopped it: "No, I saw it just now." He didn't listen, and continued to walk inside, and there was a sound of opening the cabinet in the kitchen, and after a while, Gao Qiuwu stumbled out, lay on the dining table and gasped, and stammered: "Too ...... Disgusting, you ...... Why didn't you tell me? "

I've recovered, patting him on the shoulder and laughing. Gao Qiuwu is here, there is a feeling of fighting side by side, and my heart is a lot more steady. But what is the purpose of this fog that has brought me and him here? "Let's go upstairs and have a look."

I pulled up Gao Qiuwu. He wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand and muttered in a low voice that he was unlucky.

And then...... The world is spinning!

――Come to "Pretend to be a Gentleman" with the heroine to discover the truth of the world, you can collect votes, share WeChat to earn points-

In the uncertain dark passage, Gao Qiuwu asked me: "Shui Yue, I really admire that you have been under this kind of pressure, and if you don't tell me, are you afraid that I will also encounter danger here?" "This guy is so smart, I nodded. Gao Qiuwu said again: "This house is a little weird, but the illusion is not lethal, as long as our hearts are like iron stones, we can't see any danger." ”

Should I remind him not to shake his legs!

After resting, Gao Qiuwu, who was unconscious, stood up and shone a flashlight on the surrounding walls.

"What are you looking for?"

Shocked, I asked.

"I always felt that the secret door of Yue's house could not be designed so simply. It has a road to the outside of the house, will there be a road to the house that we haven't discovered? Gao Qiuwu explained.

"Do you think these two paths will be in the same secret door?"

"Very likely, I don't think the ancestors of the Yue family will spend too much money to build another secret door." Gao Qiuwu exclaimed as he spoke, and the light of his flashlight swept over a section of the wall, which seemed to have a strange pattern drawn.

"What is this?"

I also saw the picture on the wall, which looked like a tree.

We walked over and took a closer look at what was on it—it was carved into it with a knife, a leafy tree with flowers on it. But the traces of the carving are not deep, and if you don't observe it carefully, it is difficult to find that it is a painting, and you think it is the texture of a stone.

"Who carved the tree? What kind of tree is it? ”

There are countless question marks in my mind at this time.

Gao Qiuwu smiled and said, "I know at a glance, this is engraved by Yue Wenbin." I think it should be...... It's a peach tree. "

"Yue Wenbin, he can carve? It's pretty nice, isn't it...... It's just why did he carve a peach tree here? "

"These rich second generations have leisure and money, everyone has chosen a different way to kill time, the ambitious dog and horse are drunk and gold-obsessed, the ambitious travel is broad, and the middle can generally choose an art as a way to talk, communicate, or pick up girls, many people choose sports, and he chose carving. He has an artist personality and likes to sign under what he engraves, do you see a fancy signature here'? That's what he usually signs. Gao Qiuwu pointed to a small fancy signature under the peach tree and explained to me, "He stole into the secret passage and carved something here, maybe he was making a mark - there is a secret behind this wall!" "

After speaking, Gao Qiuwu and I banged on the wall, and soon we found that this wall was different from other walls, and there were some holes in it, "Great!" I shouted, "Gao Qiuwu, this is a door, but it merges with the surrounding wall, and we didn't even notice it just now!" "

"It's supposed to be made of a special material that looks like a stone, but it's not hard to push. I tried pushing it in, and I found that I could push it away! Gao Qiuwu joked at this time, "Shui Yue, what secret do you say is hidden behind this door?" "

"It can't be the Yue family's antique treasure, right?"

I cooperated with my guess.

"You see too many stories about Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves?" Gao Qiuwu asked with an eyebrow.

"I only recently heard from the captain...... The Yue family is the mastermind behind the tomb robber group, and tomb robbery is the first pot of gold of the Yue family. Don't you tell me you already knew? You are not from the Yue family, how can you know? And don't report and expose him! "

"As a lawyer, of course, I am tight-lipped about the privacy of my clients. I heard what Yue Wenbin said before...... But if you say it, it's hard to move an inch in this line! Gao Qiuwu said as he pushed the door open, "But ...... The antiques of the prosperous era and the gold of the troubled times, the secret passage of the Yue family was used to take refuge, even if there were antiques hidden here, they had already been taken away. "

Inside the door was another secret room, the size of a bedroom, with a bed in the corner, with a thick futon on it, neatly arranged.

"Sure enough, there were people living here!"

I said with some excitement, is that person the girl Yue Ziji saw, is it Yue Hongxu?

"The air here is not bad, it seems that it can indeed live in people." Gao Qiuwu said, shining the flashlight upward, he thought for a while and said, "Shui Yue, look, I found that the top of this secret room is flat, and there are stone steps to lead to it!" And...... "I followed Gao Qiuwu's instructions and saw four stone steps in the corner, he walked up and found that there was a movable valve on the top of the stone steps. He pushed it up, but he didn't push it away, so he bent down and lowered his head, and we pulled down together, and finally pulled the valve down, revealing a square "black hole" on his head that could only accommodate one person.

"What, can you get out?"

I asked him nervously.
