Chapter 44: The Bell of the Secret House
The luxurious compartment can be faintly heard outside with the sound of servants walking back and forth. From the sound that came, it could be guessed that the banquet hall outside the compartment must be luxurious and atmospheric.
Wang Yi and Wang Liang still lowered their heads, hiding behind Shijia Gongzi's entourage, although they had countless questions, they didn't dare to move, and they didn't even dare to move, for fear that if they were not careful, people would find out and go out.
But the boy Shijia, who was sitting in front of him and was bored, opened his mouth and asked the person beside him who was similar to the attendant butler: "Who is that woman just now?
The housekeeper lowered his head and whispered: "The little one doesn't dare to say it, but I came to the master once before, and I heard others call me as a girl of the Xu family." I guess it's a housekeeper or something. “
"Presumably, the girl must have been so ugly that she put on a mask and refused to see anyone. Shijia Gongzi shook his fat head and said.
"Young master, don't talk nonsense, this Xu family girl is very mysterious, but the Xu family girl is not referring to a person, as long as she wears this mask, everyone else calls her the Xu family girl. The butler whispered.
"Mask? This mask is very mysterious, it is a ghost, this girl is wearing a mask of evil ghosts on her face, it is really not very good-looking. Shijia Gongzi said.
At this time, there was a sound similar to a bell outside, and the housekeeper next to Shijia Gongzi whispered: "Young master, don't talk about it, it's time to start." “
Sure enough, after the bell rang three times, a crisp male voice came from outside.
"Now, it's officially begins. “
Wang Liang, who was beside Wang Yi, looked at Shijia Gongzi with some surprise and said in a low voice, "Sir, what is the official start?" “
Wang Yi also shook his head slightly, it seems that this place is indeed a bit unusual.
"Now, the first place to campaign is Yunqi County, south of Fuzhou. Please hold the bell in your hand, write down the price, pull down the bell, naturally, someone will present it, now, officially. The sound outside suddenly stopped.
Shijia Gongzi waited with a puzzled face, and officially started, obviously there was no sound behind him.
The housekeeper beside him also looked at Shijia Gongzi with a strange face.
"Is it the beginning now?" said Shijia Gongzi impatiently to the butler beside him.
"This, I came with the master before, and nothing like this has happened. The butler was also puzzled. Not only Shijia Gongzi, but also faintly heard the sound of discussion from the surrounding compartments, and it seemed that everyone was not puzzled by what was going on.
Wang Yi glanced at Wang Liang beside him, Wang Yi's eyelids jumped unconsciously, and his heartbeat was a little faster, he looked around, still in this closed cubicle, I don't know why, but there was always a feeling of being targeted.
At this time, the sound of the previous pause sounded loudly again.
"I'm sorry guys, but something happened and this campaign was temporarily suspended. Later, please follow the next person to leave in an orderly manner. “
"Ah, isn't that fooling me. When Shijia Gongzi heard this voice, he stood up, and the fat on his body shook unconsciously.
"This, the young master is angry, angry. The master specially explained that we can't afford to offend the master above. The housekeeper gave Young Master Shijia a good breath while looking around, just afraid that others would listen to him.
There was a knock on the door of the cubicle from outside, and it took three clicks before the door was opened. There was a subordinate standing outside the door, and the subordinate also had a mask on his face, as if he was afraid of being looked at by others.
The subordinate stretched out his hand and motioned for Shijia Gongzi to follow him.
After listening to the housekeeper's words, Shijia Gongzi still knew the severity, tried his best to calm his anger, strode forward, and followed behind his subordinates.
Shijia Gongzi's team walked in the courtyard in a mighty way. Wang Yi frowned, but heard Wang Liang beside him breathe a deep sigh of relief, Wang Yi looked back, and couldn't help feeling guilty. Wang Liang is a few years younger than himself, and he is still a child. How can he follow him into such an unknown place, if something happens.
Wang Yi resented his recklessness in his heart. And Wang Liang looked at Wang Yi's gaze and smiled widely, not noticing Wang Yi's thoughts at all.
Wang Yi looked at it, and could only reluctantly smile. I made up my mind that I would never let Wang Liang take risks with me again.
Just as he was about to retract his gaze. Wang Yi saw that on the terrace on the second floor of the gorgeous pavilion, a woman wearing conservative clothes and a ghost mask was looking at this place and looking at herself.
Looking at each other, Wang Yi's heart couldn't help but skip a few beats. Not because of this girl's appearance, but because of the anger in this girl's eyes.
They found themselves. Wang Yi definitely came up with such an answer in his heart.
Wang Yi swallowed, saliva, although he couldn't see clearly, couldn't see it completely, but he could feel that behind the woman on the second floor, there was something, just like looking at himself like looking at his prey, Wang Yi could feel the cold bone's gaze.
Wang Yi retracted his gaze, lowered his eyebrows and continued to walk with the team, even if he was now on his back.
If they were them, in this mysterious courtyard, killing themselves would not be known to many people, let alone causing any uproar.
Even if Wang Yi felt the killing intent, he had to follow the team slowly. If you rush out at this time, it is an obvious target.
At this time, Wang Yi could feel the cold sweat on his back. Knowing that he had become the prey, Hyde followed the team slowly, how to get in and how to get out.
Wang Yi took a deep breath and clenched her fist in her sleeve. That's all I can do, at least, I have to let Wang Liang get out safely.
"Sir, what's wrong with you?" Wang Liang behind him walked to Wang Yi's side and asked in a low voice, he could feel Mr. suddenly nervous.
"No, if something happens, don't panic, just follow the team and go out, remember?"
"What will happen?" asked Wang Yi suspiciously.
"Don't ask, remember my words. “
"Yes, sir. Although Wang Liang couldn't figure out what was going on at the moment, he knew that what Mr. said must have his intentions, so he stopped talking.
The girl on the second floor stared closely at Wang Yi at the back of the team downstairs, she naturally knew that that person was not a slave, let alone a subordinate. Although the coarse linen clothes, the temperament on the body is something that others can't give. What I didn't expect was that person, it turned out to be the new inspector sent by the emperor, Wang Yi.
If it weren't for the people he sent to keep an eye on the town government office, I'm afraid that I wouldn't know it.
Behind the girl, there were three or four masked men, these men were tall, but they were terrifyingly thin, one by one, with dark eyes, and long strange hands, hanging weakly beside them, as if their whole body was weak, and they could be blown away by the wind in the next moment.
But after a wave of the girl's hand, these three or four big men rushed out quickly, like ghosts, regardless of the fact that this was the second floor. All of a sudden, they jumped down quickly, a few jumped off the ground, and a few jumped on the roof with agility, and from both sides, they quickly flanked Wang Yi's back.
Obviously quite far away, these four ghost-like figures suddenly arrived around Wang Yi.
Wang Yi, who continued to walk with his head down, could feel the changes in the air around him, as well as the coolness on his back. His hand couldn't help but clench the short sword in his sleeve.
Originally, this was just a short sword that was carried with him for self-defense, but he didn't expect that at this moment, he used it, just on the first day he arrived in Fuzhou.
Is it true that I am going to die here today?
Wang Yi smiled helplessly.
At this moment, it is the beginning of spring, and the breeze blows slowly, and you can smell it, and the wind carries the smell of grass.
"Ding Lingling. The familiar and pleasant sound of a bell suddenly rang in the air.
The four ghostly men who were infinitely close to Wang Yi's back suddenly stiffened and stopped in place.
Their bodies mechanically try to move forward, but they find that they can't move. At their feet, there seemed to be something tumbling in the shadows, trying to struggle and escape. In those shadows, there was a black shadow, a shadow as thick as a thin line, crookedly along the ground, the flower garden, the fence, all the way to the fence.
The girl on the second floor frowned, and her eyes couldn't help but look towards the wall.
"Ding Lingling. The bell rang again, and on top of the wall, there stood a young girl, dressed in alien clothes, and the bell on her ankle was rippling with the breeze, but she was stunned and no longer made a sound.
The sound of the bell in his ears entered Wang Yi's ears like spring breeze and rain, and soaked in Wang Yi's heart. Wang Yi only felt a warm current enter his body, and he actually felt that the cool air behind him disappeared.
Wang Yi looked at the exit in front of him, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.
"Ding Lingling. “
The moment he walked out of the gate, Wang Yi turned around, and at this moment, he could follow his mind and look towards the wall where the bell came out, but it was empty.
