409 Bottom of the kettle

I looked at him for a moment, "You're really good enough to talk nonsense, okay, that's the end of the topic, stop talking nonsense." Let me tell you, the Shen family's rules are big, and Shen Qing is a master who knows how to do things, you have to be cautious, don't embarrass me. ”

"Brother, don't worry, I understand, from now on, I will talk less and do more, and I will not let her grab her braids", Feng Yong smiled, "You slept with her, I will be sure in my heart, otherwise, I have to guard against her in my dreams." ”

I wondered, "Why are you guarding against her?" See what? ”

He looked around and lowered his voice, "Brother, since I came here, there have been people hanging around near where we live every night, I think something is wrong, it doesn't look like a security patrol." ”

I frowned, "So what do you look like?" ”

"I stole around the window and saw that these people were foreigners, and they had submachine guns in their hands, the real thing," he said, "do you think that's normal?" When we came, there were two foreign devils in her car, and the factory was also full of Chinese, but those foreign devils with guns came out in the middle of the night, how to explain this? ”

"It's not unusual for foreigners, it's a problem with a submachine gun", I thought for a while, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?" ”

"Am I not afraid that you will be distracted?" He said, "Besides, you didn't come back for the first night, and you talked to her for half the night the second night, and we went to stay in town last night, and I didn't have a chance to tell you alone." ”

I nodded, "You're right, don't make a noise about this, especially don't let Zhou Yan know." What we did this time is too big, and Shen Qing's identity is very special, maybe those foreigners are here to protect us. Just keep quiet, just be vigilant. ”

"Okay brother, I see", he said.

We chatted for a while, and Zhou Yan came back, "Brother, the formation is ready, do you want to check it?" ”

"No, I know what you can do", I paused, "What about Shen Qing?" ”

"She's still watching there, and she said she wanted to observe it alone, so I'll come over first," she wiped the sweat from her forehead, "What's next?" ”

I took off my jacket and handed it to her, "Draped it on my head, I can't see the wind when I'm sweating." You two go back first, and I'll go see what's going on with her." ”

"I'll be waiting for you!" Zhou Yan said.

"No, the wind will blow on this mountain from time to time, and it's not good if you're blown it," I said, "Let's go down the mountain first, and we'll be back in a moment." ”

"Okay then", Zhou Yan nodded.

I came to Shen Qing's side, and she was watching the iron man distracted, completely unaware of the movement around her.

"What are you looking at?" I asked.

She looked at me, "If we fail, what will my clan do......"

"So we can't fail, and we won't fail," I said, "don't think so much, haven't you always been confident?" ”

She sighed softly, "This has nothing to do with self-confidence, don't Chinese often say, don't care about things, care is chaotic, my heart is a little chaotic now." More than 100 years ago, my great-grandfather took his family on a voyage to Europe to start anew. They first went to Germany, then to France, then to England, and emigrated to the United States before the Second European War. During this period, we have experienced many hardships and many crises, but each time, we have been able to save the day."

She paused, "Relying on good luck and the efforts of four generations, the Shen family has become a century-old family wandering, others seem to us to be very beautiful, but my grandfather told me that the root of all this is our good luck." And the reason for our good luck is that it is under this inconspicuous hill, and this strange tomb of the Iron General is the last barrier to protect this secret. ”

I didn't speak, I looked at her silently.

"But now, in order to protect the family's luck, I have to destroy this barrier with my own hands," she sighed with relief, "It's a lot like a gamble, isn't it?" We have no reason to lose because we can't afford to lose. ”

"Winning or losing is a matter of heaven, don't think so much", I said calmly.

She looked at me, "I know you'll do your best, that's enough, and I'll take care of the rest." Lin Zhuo, thank you for helping me, let's go back. ”

Anyone has helplessness at times, and so does the Queen, and at that moment, I saw her weakness. People who know how to do math are generally very strong in their hearts, because they can see the fate that ordinary people can't see, but on the other hand, they are very sensitive and vulnerable, because they are all lonely elves, and everyone bears unimaginable responsibilities and pressures alone.

I gently took her into my arms and let her lean on my shoulder, her hand instinctively wrapping around my waist.

"Thank you," she murmured.

"You're welcome," I patted her on the back, "We're all lonely people, and we all need someone else's arms at times." ”

She smiled, "I thought you had feelings for me." ”

I laughed too, "You dream." ”

According to the plan, the time to open the secret passage is Shen Shi, but this matter is very confidential, and those who cannot trust it cannot participate. There is a thick layer of sealed soil outside the secret passage, which needs to be dug up with an iron shovel, and we can't get started, so this problem has to be handed over to the foreigner brought by Shen Qing to be responsible.

At lunch, we discussed this question. Shen Qing said that although these people are more reliable, after all, they are professional bodyguards, people who take money and sell their lives, and she is worried that once the secret passage is leaked, this place will not be safe in the future, so she suggested letting the Song brothers dig the soil.

"You trust them so much?" I asked.

"It's more reliable than the bodyguards," she said, "and they have guarded the basement for generations, and their loyalty should be believable." When the mouth of the secret passage is dug up, I will let them go down the mountain, and they will not know what is inside. ”

"You have a point," I thought for a moment, "by the way, why haven't you seen Song Sung-hyo these days?" ”

"He has been out on errands for the past two days, and he can come back in the afternoon," Shen Qing said, "If you think it's okay, then I'll inform them to prepare." ”

"Okay, then let's decide," I said, "I'm going back to rest after dinner, let's meet at three o'clock, and then go up the mountain to set up a formation, and before five o'clock, dig the secret passage." ”

"Well, that's it!" She looked at me, "You have a good rest, this time, I will allow you to be ten minutes late." ”

I smiled, "I'm never late when I'm running errands, don't worry." ”

After lunch, I went back to my lodgings, lay down on the bed, and soon fell asleep. At this time, the voice of the fourth child came from his ear, "Master, don't sleep yet, the fourth child has something to report to you." ”

Generally speaking, if I don't summon him, he doesn't dare to take the initiative to disturb me, since he says that there is something to report, it should be a very important thing.

I opened my eyes and sat up, "What's the matter?" ”

Lao Si showed his figure, "Master, Xiao Si is not sure, he patrolled the mountain alone just now and found that something was wrong." The formation arranged by Miss Zhou Yan was broken. ”

I frowned, "Broken?" How can it be? ”

"It's true, master", said the fourth, "A very strange aura appeared around the Iron General's Tomb, as if something had been activated, and Miss Zhou's formation was quickly dispersed. If it weren't for me running fast, the aura would have grabbed me, and now I don't dare to get close, I can only watch from afar. ”

"You said that aura would catch you?" I frowned, "Could it be the Blood Spirit Demon ......?"

"It's not quite accurate to say that it is captured, it is more appropriate to swallow", he said, "But according to Xiao Si's observation, that aura does not look like it came from the demon spirit, it should be issued by the formation." ”

"You mean, there's a formation activated around there?"

"Yes, I suspect so," he nodded.

I suddenly thought of Shen Qing, "Could it be her?" ”

"Master, I also suspect that it is her", said the fourth child, "This Miss Shen has a very powerful object on her body, Miss Tang can't notice it, and I don't dare to approach it at all." When Miss Zhou set up the formation, Miss Shen was also there, and after the formation was arranged, she still stood there for a while, maybe she took advantage of that moment and used some special method to activate the underground formation. ”

"Tang Qi, are you there?" I asked.

"Brother, I'm here", Tang Qi showed his figure.

"The fourth said that there is an object on Shen Qing's body, you can't notice it, is it true?" I asked.

She looked at the fourth child, "What he said is not right, it's not that I can't notice it, it's just that I'm not afraid." ”

"What's that?" I asked.

She shook her head, "I don't know, but the object wasn't what she was wearing, it seems...... It seems to be a ...... hidden in her body."

"Hidden in the body?" I was stunned, "How is that possible?" ”

"It's really possible," Tang Qi said, "On the first night brother, when you spent the night with her on the mountain, I could feel that there was an aura on her, but it didn't look like the evil one, on the contrary, that aura was still good for you." But last night, that aura suddenly disappeared and was replaced by another aura, which was very strong and a little weird. ”

"What's the weird law?" I asked.

"I can't tell, but that aura makes me feel a little confused as soon as I get closer," she paused, "Last night she wanted to have sex with her brother, but you refused." But for that brief intimacy, you also have that aura, and after she left, I wanted to tell my brother about it several times, but as soon as I got close to you, I didn't know what to say. ”

I was stunned, "When did this situation get better?" ”

"It's okay early this morning, I was going to tell my brother about it, but ......", she sighed, "but she's always been by your side, and I don't dare to get close, so I'll ......"

"Master, it's obvious, it must have been Miss Shen who did it!" The fourth child said, "The aura on her body is just afraid that we will remind you that this is the bottom of the kettle!" ”

"You can't say that", Tang Qi looked at him, "Miss Shen hasn't done anything unfavorable to her brother until now, I can see that she doesn't want to harm her brother, but she has too many secrets hidden in her, which makes people wonder through." ”

"Tang Qi, can't you foresee the future?" I looked at her, "Isn't that okay with her?" ”

Tang Qi shook his head, "Yes to her...... I can't do it, the aura on her body is too special, so I suspect that there must be an object hidden in her body. ”

"What if I can't help you?" The fourth child was in a hurry.

"Don't talk about it," I waved my hand, "don't go near this mountain yet, and keep yourself safe." As for the object on Shen Qing's body, I have my own way......"
