Chapter 396: Mysterious Secret Passage (2)
"Cheongsam" dropped a sentence and disappeared completely without I knowing.
This time, it's really completely gone.
No matter how much I try to find her in the sea of consciousness, she just doesn't appear.
If it's not a weak heart, why avoid me like this?
It's a pity that things have come to this point, and it is impossible to turn back, so you can only take one step at a time.
Shen Ming followed me closely, which made me feel a lot more at ease. The gloom in my heart dispelled a little, and I mentioned the spirit of twelve, looking for some clues.
Shen Ming and I stood at two forks in the road when we didn't know how to choose.
Suddenly, there was a small noise from the tunnel on the right.
My ears moved, listening intently for the slightest movement. It seems that with a flick of the mind, the movement will disappear completely.
I motioned for Shen Ming to turn off the flashlight on my phone, and all of a sudden, the surroundings fell into darkness.
Shen Ming's hand was tightly clasped on my wrist, lest something change might happen in the darkness.
There was a thin sound of speech in the corridor on the right, but unfortunately the surroundings were too empty, and the already small voice had lost its original appearance after countless echoes.
The corridor on the right gradually emitted some faint light, and my heart was raised high.
Could it be Song Mingzhe?
But I didn't dare to make a sound, lest I startle the snake.
"What the fuck is this place, why do you go back to where you are?" A familiar male voice.
It's a pity that it's not Song Mingzhe.
"This house is my stepmother, yes, Ms. Wang Cui's name, why there is this basement, I really don't know." A man's wry laugh came from the corridor, "Since there is an entrance, there will definitely be an exit, and you should be able to find it if you look for it patiently." ”
"Should? What secrets are you hiding? The other man raised his voice abruptly, and there was uncontrollable anger in his tone.
Lian Xiu looked at him with a smile, "You are wrong in what you said, it should be what secret Wang Cui is hiding." However, I think we will soon find out. ”
Jiang Chenxi snorted coldly and did not answer again.
When I heard Lian Xiu's voice, I breathed a sigh of relief. In my impression, Lian Xiu is a person with a good personality and a gentle and warm personality.
I just don't know why he's trapped in this place.
When the flashlight in Jiang Chenxi's hand shone on me, he was stunned and scolded, "Who is in that place!" ”
Shen Ming took my hand and walked out of the darkness, and said indifferently, "What a coincidence." ”
Jiang Chenxi's gaze moved from Shen Ming to mine, and he said in surprise, "So it's you?" ”
Lian Xiu walked out from behind Jiang Chenxi, his peach blossom eyes rose slightly, and he nodded at us as a greeting.
The four of us had different looks.
Jiang Chenxi's face was a little bad, maybe because he had a fight with Lian Xiu just now, and now his face is still gloomy.
Lian Xiu seemed to be a lot quieter than before.
"Do you see any other people?" I looked in the direction of Lian Xiu, Jiang Chenxi always gave me an indescribable gloomy aura, if I didn't have to, I didn't want to have too much intersection with him.
Jiang Chenxi is also very aware of current affairs, and he didn't talk to him, but just looked at Shen Ming with his eyes.
Lian Xiu smiled politely and detachedly, "I don't know what Miss Lu is referring to other people?" ”
I opened my mouth, and finally swallowed what I wanted to say, after all, Song Mingzhe's ghost was bumped into by many people, although Lian Xiu and others were not present at the time, but there is no impermeable wall in this world.
If Lian Xiu knew that Song Mingzhe had been ghosted, even if he no longer obstructed it, he would not be willing to let Song Mingzhe go with us.
It's better not to say that, lest there be some things that can't be explained clearly.
I chuckled, "There is great strength in numbers, and the more people you have, the greater the chance of leaving?" ”
Lian Xiu nodded approvingly, "It's still Miss Lu's thoughtfulness." ”
I looked past the two of them and into the corridor, "How did you come to this place?" ”
Although it would be rude to know that this question would be asked in normal times, but now it is different, the enemy is in the open, we are in the dark, and the more reliable information we know, the better it will be for us.
Lian Xiu and Song Mingzhe glanced at each other very quickly, and Lian Xiu's gentle voice sounded in the darkness, "My sister is gone." ”
When he said it, there was just the right amount of sadness on his face, afraid that we wouldn't know who his sister was, and repeated, "It's rourou." ”
Hearing Lian Rourou's name, my heart jumped heavily.
Lian Rourou is vicious, and Lian Xiu, as her brother, is afraid that there are many things that she keeps in the dark.
According to what has been seen so far, Lian Xiu has a lot of affection for this half-sister Lian Rourou, if he knew that Lian Rourou had blown herself up and died, I don't know if Lian Xiu would be able to accept it.
Lian Xiu sighed softly, and then said, "Rourou quarreled with my stepmother in the room and ran out angrily. There was a lot of danger in this villa, and I was afraid that something would happen to her, so I went with her. Unexpectedly, there was no trace of her in the blink of an eye, so I came here after looking for it in such a circle, and I unexpectedly ran into Mr. Jiang. ”
Jiang Chenxi nodded perfunctorily, looking particularly bad. It seemed that with just a small flame he would explode.
My impression of Jiang Chenxi only stays at Shi Shanshan's boyfriend. It's a pity that such a friend who met in Pingshui can never be met again.
Jiang Chenxi stood behind Lian Xiu with his chest crossed, and he had no desire to talk to us.
After Lian Xiu finished speaking, he asked us politely, "Where are you going?" ”
"I met several particularly large birds in the hall just now, they killed people when they saw them, I was scared and pulled Shen Ming, so I fled all the way, and I got here, I didn't expect to meet you, what a coincidence." I said half-truths.
Lian Xiu was stunned, "It's really thrilling, fortunately you're fine, otherwise I'm going to die of guilt." It's okay that we can walk together, and it's a lot safer. ”
Jiang Chenxi snorted coldly, it seemed that he couldn't bear Lian Xiu's pretentious appearance, but for the sake of face, he didn't say anything.
I noticed the discord between Jiang Chenxi and Lian Xiu a long time ago, but I never understood why the two of them seemed to have no intersection with each other, but they were on the same page when they met.
Shen Ming's eyes sank, as if he had sensed something, and he frowned suspiciously, and the force of pulling my palm increased.
"Don't waste your time on this kind of thing, if you have something to say, you will talk about it on the road." Shen Ming rarely spoke, and his tone was habitually high.
Jiang Chenxi's back straightened abruptly in the dark, and then slowly loosened.
Lian Xiu glanced at Jiang Chenxi disapprovingly, the speed was extremely fast, and Shen Ming and I didn't notice it.
"That's right, then I'll tell you what I've seen along the way." Lian Xiu came to my side, and when I was still a meter away, Shen Ming grabbed my shoulders and pocketed my body, and his tall body was cleverly sandwiched between me and Lian Xiu.
Shen Ming's reaction was too obvious, Lian Xiu smiled and touched his nose.
I secretly poked Shen Ming's waist with my elbow and whispered, "Big Vinegar King." ”
The corners of Shen Ming's mouth hooked up a light smile, and he didn't refute.
Jiang Chenxi, who fell at the back of the team, looked unpredictable and difficult to distinguish.
Lian Xiu quickly forgot about this incident and talked to us eloquently, "Entering this basement is definitely something I didn't expect. You may have heard about my family's affairs. My biological mother was actually killed by my stepmother and my mother. ”
I was really shocked by his confession, the ugliness of his family should not be publicized, and he actually told his own story as if he were telling someone else's story.
"However, I have always treated my relatives with a sincere heart, and I regard my stepmother, my father, my sister, and even my brother, who has always looked down on me, as my dearest. That's the older generation's business, it's their fault, it's unreasonable, and our generation has to pay it back. ”
Lian Xiu was silent for a while, "I know that this series of things must be inseparable from them, but I still have to apologize to you innocent people on their behalf." You are tired. ”
With that, he bowed deeply in the direction of me and Shen Ming.
"The world is unpredictable, and you don't need to blame yourself too much." I thought about it for a long time, and I couldn't think of any words that could comfort him.
Lian Xiu grinned, and his peach blossom eyes were raised, "Qingqing, it's enough to have your words." ”
Shen Ming moved his steps slightly, blocking the view between the two of us, "Okay, it's more important to find an exit." ”
Lian Xiu was choked by Shen Ming but had no way to refute it, pinched his fingers in embarrassment, and looked at me apologetically.
Shen Ming is right, now is indeed not the time for idle talk.
Lian Xiu is very knowledgeable, and he has learned a lot about the dark path along the way.
Shen Ming didn't know anything about these, and he felt a little frustrated.
So, Shen Ming said casually, "Even the young master knows so much, could it be that he has fought the tunnel before?" ”
Lian Xiu paused, his embarrassed face turned blue and white for a while.
I looked up at Shen Ming and frowned at him, "Why did you speak with a prickly voice, he told us that it was also for our good." ”
Shen Ming lowered his eyes, looked at me quietly for a while, and walked forward silently.
I trotted after him, "What's wrong with you, why are you losing your temper for no reason?" ”
Shen Ming took two steps, and then looked back at me, "Lonely." ”
After thinking about it for a while, I realized that what he said was not meant to mean that he was not angry.
"Then why do you keep targeting Lian Xiu?"
Shen Ming raised his chin and looked like an uncle, "When did Lone target him." ”
I opened my mouth to tell him all about his viciousness, only to find that I couldn't say anything at all.
"You ......" I was speechless.
Shen Ming blew into my face, "Good, don't think too much about things. A person like Lian Xiu is at most a person who digs tunnels, but he is different. ”
