Chapter 72: The Man in the Secret Room

Liu Fengxi followed behind Mu Juechen and walked through the narrow secret passage that twisted and twisted, if it weren't for the small night pearl the size of a thumb every three steps on both sides of the wall, and a large night pearl the size of a baby's fist in ten steps, this narrow secret passage would be so dark that you couldn't see your fingers, and you couldn't walk at all.

Even though it was inlaid with night pearls, this secret passage was still extremely dim, and if it weren't for their better eyesight than ordinary people, it would be extremely difficult to walk in this dark secret passage.

Maybe it's because this secret passage is too dark, and the people who designed this secret passage will inlay night pearls on both sides of the wall!

"Xi'er, follow me, be careful, don't hit this wall, there are many mechanisms here, and if something is not good, I'm afraid we won't be able to get out of here safely!" Mu Jiechen walked in front, leading the way in front of him, and whispered to Liu Fengxi behind him.

"Hmmm! I'll be careful! You can lead the way in front with peace of mind, don't be distracted! Liu Fengxi replied softly, although she knew that he couldn't see it, the corners of her mouth still had a soothing smile.

From the hidden mechanism in the Moon Pavilion, she had guessed that the path in the secret passage of the forbidden room would not be too easy to follow. The mechanism in the Lanyue Pavilion is cleverly designed, if you are not familiar with it, I am afraid you would never have imagined that the ordinary shading on the ordinary-looking wooden floor will be a mechanism.

Although she was also proficient in the mechanism formation, she didn't see that the ordinary shading would be a mechanism.

It can be seen from this that the person who designed this Lanyue Pavilion was so deep and cautious, she thought, no one would think of paying attention to such an ordinary and ordinary wooden board, and no one would pay attention to the shading on the wooden floor, which in the eyes of ordinary people, is just the lines on the wood! This person is so deep in his mind that people are frightened!

"Xi'er......" Mu Jiechen suddenly stopped, turned around and stretched out his hand to her, his magnetic low voice seemed to have the power to calm people's hearts, and said: "Give me your hand, I will hold your hand, so that you will not be afraid!" ”

"Hmmm! Good! Liu Fengxi looked deeply at his gentle and affectionate eyes, handed him his hand, smiled and nodded in response.

At this time, she is not hypocritical, and she does not want to be hypocritical. In front of him, she didn't need to disguise herself. No matter how strong she is, she is just a woman after all! She also needs the care of her lover, and Mu Juechen's thoughtfulness makes her feel at ease and feel warm.

Mu Jiechen held her small hand in her big hand, and walked slowly in front, both of them walked cautiously, at this time, they didn't have any extra thoughts to go to other things.

After walking for about a pillar of incense, they finally walked out of this dark secret passage that was winding and full of traps. At this time, the two of them clasped hands tightly, and their palms were already covered with fine cold sweat.

Usually Mu Jiechen came here alone, it was not as hard as it was today, and he was extremely familiar with this place. However, he knew that this was Xi'er's first time here, and she was not familiar with her, so he naturally had to be extra careful with her, so as not to accidentally touch the mechanism and hurt her.

"Xi'er, are you afraid ......?" Mu Jiechen clenched his hand and looked at her and asked with a smile.

"Nope!" Liu Fengxi also replied with a smile. "Dust, where are you going to take me?" At this time, she already had the answer in her heart, but she wanted to hear his answer.

"Take you to meet someone!" Mu Jiechen said: "You'll know when you arrive!" He took her by the hand and turned to the left, turning a few more corners, and then walking straight ahead. After walking for about half a pillar of incense, a steep staircase appeared in front of them, they stepped down the stone steps, in front of them was a secret room, Mu Jiechen pressed the mechanism on the stone wall with the free hand, the stone door opened, and after he and Liu Fengxi entered, the stone door slowly closed behind them.

Hearing the sound of the stone door opening, the man in the secret room was chained with iron chains, his body stiffened suddenly, and his lowered eyelashes trembled, but he did not raise his head. Then he heard a low sound of footsteps, and he knew that it was the man's deliberate expression, and he just wanted to see his appearance of fear and despair, and he was not as he wished.

Hasn't he had enough of it in the past fifteen years? A disdainful sneer curled into the corner of the man's mouth, and he hung his head, the hair hanging down his cheeks to cover the sneer full of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth.

A flash of surprise flashed in Liu Fengxi's eyes, and then suddenly, the speed made the people who saw it mistakenly think that they were dazzled just now. Her peerless jasper eyes were calm and waveless, and she couldn't see any emotion, all of which she expected! It's just that when you witness it with your own eyes, you will still be stunned.

How did he hide it after so many years? At that time, the real Young Master Mu was also ten years old, how did he do it, hiding from everyone's eyes, even Mrs. Mu didn't see that the person who had been with her for more than ten years was not her biological son.

Lu Ying's extremely resentful eyes when she was dying suddenly flashed in her mind, and suddenly in her heart, everything was strung together, and there was no doubt.

I'm afraid that by this time, the only person in this world who knows the truth, and the person who really admires Young Master's side, has also died. With Lu Ying's death, no one can reveal Mu Juechen's identity. Liu Fengxi couldn't help but glance sideways at the handsome man beside her, this person was her lover. The depth of his mind also made her feel uneasy!

Will he really love her like this? How true is his love for her? His tenderness to her, the affection in his eyes, how much is from the heart, and how much is acting? If it is acting, she has to admire his superb acting skills, no one can compare!

"Mu Zhenhua's son is nothing more than that, when he saw the general, he didn't even dare to raise his head, and he didn't dare to look at the general!" The corners of Mu Jiechen's mouth hooked a sneer, and said mockingly.

Liu Fengxi frowned almost invisibly, and looked at the man who was leaning against the wall, the clothes on his body could no longer be seen in their original color, and his long hair was messy, scattered in front of him, covering his face, making it impossible to see his face.

Liu Fengxi couldn't help but wonder, I don't know how he would answer!

His instincts told him that this man was not as weak and incompetent as they appeared on the surface! He can endure humiliation for more than ten years, and he can never be a cowardly and incompetent person!

"Shut up!" He shouted in a low voice at Mu Jiechen, the chains on his hands and feet were 'dinging' by his earnings, and he said coldly in a low voice: "You can insult me, but you are not worthy of calling my father's name!" If you have a kind, don't steal my Mu surname! ”

"Hahaha...... Mu Juechen laughed instead of being angry, his laughter was evil and crazy, he sneered: "You think you can anger the general just by relying on your words?" Don't dream, your naΓ―ve words will not be taken to heart at all, you can rest assured, in the near future, the entire Huang Dynasty will be the general, and the surname Mu, for the sake of the general's use, will let it continue to remain in this world, and as for the people of Mufu, whether they can live or not depends on the mood of the general at that time! ”

He let go of Liu Fengxi's hand, paced in front of the man, and said with a low smile: "As for your mother, whether she can live or not depends on your decision!" ”
