Chapter 178: Come Out
I helped Su Xi to stand up and said softly, "Don't say I'm sorry, you have suffered so much in your life, I won't let you be hurt again." ”
"Senior. You don't have to worry about me, when I first saw that qiē, I really didn't know how to survive. But when I woke up and saw you around, I felt so stupid. You and I have known each other for only a few months, but you can jump down to save me regardless of life and death, no matter how sad my heart is, what is it.
It is also your friendship that gives me great warmth and touch. Just now I had that dream, I saw starvation everywhere, I saw war and slaughter, but all the evil and ugliness disappeared the moment I saw the new life coming, my parents left, and I should live well as their hope. My mother-in-law raised me as an adult and did so much for me, and I should live well, everything has its reasons, and the reason why we are persistent is because we haven't seen it yet. Su Xi said slowly.
I kept looking at her as she said that. There was a calmness and calmness in her eyes, which made me faintly worried. I wonder if this girl will see through the red dust.
"So, have you forgiven your mother-in-law?" I asked.
"Hmm. She should have had to do this, in the picture of the well water, in the last scene, the mother-in-law stood outside the window and watched her mother hang herself, I didn't see her face clearly. But just now, in the dream, when this scene reappeared, I saw that her face was also sad. I think, maybe this is what my mother-in-law is referring to, the women of our Su family have carried too much in their lives. When he said this, Su Xi's face finally flashed a trace of gloom that an ordinary person should have.
Yes, Su Qingli, Su Muying, Su Xi, and every woman in the Su family have borne too much pain.
I was moved for a moment and took Su Xi's hand.
In fact, this night, I also pulled Su Xi's hand several times, but it was all in a hurry. This time, I really wanted her to feel my heart, as well as the encouragement and support in my heart, and she looked at me, smiled lightly, and did not break free.
At this time, Su Xi said "Huh", my heart tightened, and I hurriedly asked her what was wrong, she pointed to her clothes pocket with another hand, I looked at it and bulged there, understood, and said, "Let Xiaobai out." ”
After Xiaobai came out, the two of us walked back and forth in the passage again, carefully checking every place, and finally returned here, but still did not find the exit.
I sighed, but Su Xi persuaded me not to worry, she said that her mother-in-law should have also come here back then, and put the jade pendant on the stone pillar, since they can go out in the end, we will definitely be able to.
Hearing Su Xi's words, a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind. I thought that before we came, Wu Bing meant that their operation in Yinyu Village was successful, Su Po had completed the transformation of their identity, and they had left safely.
The failure of Su Po that he spoke of was one of the things that followed him. The jade pendant on the stone pillar is closely related to the identity of the woman of the Su family, and it should also be divided into two in that failed incident.
That being the case, it means that Su Po took away this jade pendant back then, so could it be that the jade pendant is a switch to start the exit?
Thinking about it, I immediately walked to the stone pillar and reached for the jade pendant embedded in it, but when I put my hand on it and pulled it out, it didn't move at all.
"Senior, I'll try." Su Xi said and walked to the stone pillar.
I stepped out of the way, only to see her put her right hand on top of the jade pendant, stay for a few seconds, and then take it off very easily, much to my surprise.
After the jade pendant was removed, the stone pillar revealed the same round shape as before, and I squatted down and saw that it was still so smooth.
"How did you do that?" I asked Su Xi suspiciously.
"I don't know why this happened, but when I put my hand on it, I felt an aura, and then with a little force, it let go." Su Xi replied to me.
I understand, the jade pendant belongs to the Su family, so it naturally recognizes the owner.
At this time, I saw that the jade pendant in Su Xi's hand was not separated, but it seemed to be one, and I asked in surprise: "The jade pendant has grown?" ”
Listening to my words, Su Xi buried his head in looking and picked up the jade pendant with his other hand. I look like this, and I can't even see any traces of connection in the middle, it's a whole.
At this time, I heard a noise behind me, I hurriedly turned around, and saw that the wall facing the passage was slowly parting to both sides, and I felt a wave of surprise in my heart, and I ran to the wall with Su Xi.
We stood there and watched as the cracks in the wall grew bigger and bigger, and the situation behind the wall became clearer, and there was still a green glow behind it. When the cracks in the wall were open for people to walk through, we walked in without hesitation, this is still a passage, and I walked forward with Su Xi and Xiaobai.
The passage is shorter, only a few meters to the end, at the end of which is a stone staircase. Tai Sui lives in talent.
I asked Su Xi to wait for me, and then I walked up the stone stairs, and after a few steps, my head was almost next to the top, I reached out and touched it, the top here didn't seem to be made of stone, like wood, I pushed it hard, I felt it a little loose, I was happy, I pushed it again with more force in my hand, and pushed it away directly.
I went up two more stone stairs and poked my head out, and I saw what looked like a room on it. I retracted my head and asked Su Xi to follow me, Su Xi came over, I took her hand and walked up the stone ladder, and Xiaobai followed behind Su Xi.
When we came out, we stood in the middle of the house. The room was closed, and some moonlight poured in through the window, and then I noticed that we were back in the old Su family's house, and now we were standing in the hall of the Su house.
I looked up, and there was still the rope that Su Muying hanged on the beam, it seemed that we were really back. I walked behind the door with Su Xi, and then I opened the door.
"Who?" As soon as the door opened, I heard a familiar voice coming from the courtyard, it was not Liu Jin or anyone.
"It's me!" I shouted loudly, joy in my tone.
"Zhou Bing? How did you get out of here? Liu Jin said, and I saw a figure running over here, and I also stepped out of the hall.
Liu Jin ran up to me and looked me up and down, with an incredible expression on his face, and when he saw Su Xi behind me, he was even more shocked to close his mouth.
After looking at it for a while, he was still a little unsure, and then asked hesitantly: "Are you humans or ghosts?" ”
"You touch it." I said with a smile.
When Liu Jin heard this, he really reached out and pinched my face, pinched it twice, and he punched me and said, "I cāo, Lao Tzu still thinks you are dead!" I've been sorry for you for a while! ”
This is the first time I've heard Liu Jin swear words, but I feel very kind when I listen to it. I deliberately joked to him, "You're not enough brother to jump down to save me." ”
"Phew, if you want to die, I'll stay with you, four people broke three, I have to leave a life to go back and tell Master Wu Bing what is going on, otherwise this will become an unsolved mystery for a century." Although Liu Jin said so, I knew that when I moved a little slower, he jumped down.
"Brother Jin, I'm sorry to worry you." At this time, Su Xi stepped forward and whispered.
When talking to me, Liu Jin could still make a few jokes, looking at Su Xi, he was much more serious, and was busy saying: "It's okay, it's okay, you guys can come back, but didn't you all fall into the well, why did you come out of the hall?" ”
As soon as Liu Jin finished speaking, there was a sound behind us, and Liu Jin immediately looked back vigilantly, and my heart tightened. I asked him if the flashlight was still there, and he told me to wait, then walked back into the courtyard, brought a flashlight, and the three of us went back to the hall.
I took the flashlight from his hand, estimated where we had just come out, and shot the light through. Strangely, the place, like the surroundings, was not empty. I walked over and stepped on it twice, and there was a thick sound, and I couldn't tell that it was empty underneath. I walked around the house again, but there was still no empty space.
I remembered the sound I had just heard, and it seemed that the secret passage had been closed.
After returning to the courtyard, I told Liu Jin about what we had experienced in the well, and Liu Jin was amazed after hearing it, and said that the well was really weird, as if it had opened a door to time and space.
I looked back at the hall and thought to myself, in this way, Master Wu Bing's guess about the mechanism is not wrong, he said that the mechanism will appear in the ancestral hall and the Su Mansion, speaking of which, the mechanism is located under the Su Mansion, which can be regarded as confirming the master's words.
I asked Liu Jin what happened after that, and he said that when he saw that I had already jumped, he had to wait by the well to see if I could get Su Xi out. As soon as I jumped down, the overflowing well water slowly retracted, and he did not run to the well to look at it out of vigilance, and after a few more minutes, even the mouth of the well slowly closed, and it became the same as the surrounding ground.
Liu Jin waited for a few more minutes, and there was no change there, he felt that this thing was really weird, and the sound in the surrounding rooms did not stop, so he planned to go back to the Su Mansion first, and wait for dawn to take a look, if we didn't appear after dawn, he was ready to go back to Master Wu Bing for help through the forest alone.
"You said the well disappeared out of thin air?" I was also a little shocked to hear what he said.
"But isn't it, it's like there's never been a zài, that's why I said that the well is like a passage, opening the door of time and space, and this side of the hall should also be a passage, and now that the passages on both sides are closed, we can't enter that space." Liu Jin said very seriously, without any nonsense.
Listening to his words, I fell into deep thought, I originally thought that Su Xi and I had just fallen into an ancient tomb, but now listening to Liu Jin's meaning, we actually entered another space? It struck me a little incredible!
