Chapter Twenty-Seven: Insisting on Going to the Tower

Wen Yukou went all the way to this height, the stairs got narrower and narrower, the light became darker and darker, and no voices could be heard at all. When I got to the eighth floor, I couldn't even see a single guard, which was very weird. The walls of the tower are full of engraved scriptures, and the characters are like reptiles, imprisoned in a small empty space on that side, twisted and entangled. The quieter it is, the more unsettling it is.

Her ears were pointed, and as she passed through the porch, she heard heavy breathing from behind, so she immediately stopped, deliberately making noise, to see who was here.

A young man in a fancy costume walked in from the dark black corridor, his expression was solemn, his purple eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, and he seemed to be surprised by Wen Yukou's appearance: "Why are you here?" ”

Wen Yukou saw that it was Xiahou Shenxiao, and she couldn't turn a blind eye to the vigilance in his eyes, so she smiled faintly: "Back to the words of the third prince, it is said that the Sihe Pagoda means that the world is all in the eyes, and I just feel a little bored, and I am about to go to the tower to watch the scenery and see what the people under the tower look like." If it disturbs the three princes, I hope that the three princes will forgive their sins. ”

Her words couldn't be faulted, Xiahou Shenxiao put away the vigilance and doubts in his eyes, and said softly: "You go to watch the scenery, what a crime." But you can't go up further, although the quadrangle tower has eighteen floors, but today the ninth layer of the tower is only the Son of Heaven can go up, if you go up, in case you bump into the guards, wouldn't it be troublesome? Not under the tower. ”

Guards? Wen Yukou looked around and looked up slightly, where it was empty and pitch black, and she couldn't hear a sound. It's strange to say, why don't you have a single guard, even if there are few people, you should send someone to guard it. It's only the eighth floor, why is there no one? If she couldn't go up to the ninth floor, how did she meet Fu Tingshen back then? No, something must have gone wrong......

Tickingβ€”the sound of liquid falling down, rippling in the darkness of emptiness.

Wen Yukou quickly looked at Xiahou Shenxiao, and saw that he threw off his sleeves with the momentum of covering his ears and stealing the bell, and pinned them cleanly behind his waist, but no matter how fast he moved, Wen Yukou still found that the silver sleeve corners were dyed red and were spreading and expanding. Xiahou Shenxiao frowned faintly, his eyes were like lightning, and he shot at Wen Yukou quickly.

"Hua Yue, I heard that the third prince is quite profound about the allusions to the Sihe Pagoda, I want to ask him, you go down first, help me take care of the second sister, as soon as there is any movement, come and tell me."

The so-called care is surveillance, Hua Yue is now very familiar with Wen Yukou's code words, agreed softly, and soon went down the tower. Xiahou Shen Xiao stared at Wen Yukou, his dark eyebrows, and the purple in his eyes became more and more intense in the opaque tower. Hua Yue's footsteps could no longer be heard, but Wen Yukou's eyes were still as fearful and calm as before, she didn't go down the tower, she wouldn't be afraid of anyone.

As soon as Hua Yue left, Wen Yukou's eyes slowly fell on Xiahou Shenxiao's face, and Xiahou Shenxiao suddenly remembered that he had just seen Wen Yukou's use of Su Chaoyu and Xu Xiancheng on the tower to make a big noise, ordinary people may not be able to see the difference, but he knew that it was easy to achieve the opposite effect by quietly controlling others to achieve their own goals. But Wen Yukou grasped this degree just right, and easily let everyone know the real concubine of the Wen Mansion with a warm smile and scheming words.

Also, she smiled at Su Chaoyu...... Pretty and almost bewitched......

Xiahou Shenxiao couldn't help but sigh softly: "Miss Wen, you broke up your handmaid and said that you would ask me for advice...... I don't remember when I was so familiar with the Quadruple Tower, so why would Miss Wen lie? ”

Wen Yukou didn't answer, I don't know who plucked a string, "Zheng-" Xiahou Shenxiao's heart was shocked, Wen Yukou took advantage of his distraction, pushed him away, flashed to the tower corridor, and when she saw everything in front of her clearly, she gently covered her lips.

The tower corridor that turned around had always been clean and solemn, but at this time there were at least four or five guards, and the corpses were all over the tower corridor, covered with blood.

There is a smell of blood in the wind, the music under the tower is resounding, the colorful clouds are surging and shuttling in the meantime, the field is the tall and majestic Sihe Tower and the red stall that stretches for a mile, flashy and unreal, the outside of the field is the shouting mixed with the laughter, the cloth and linen skin are reflected by the lantern to reflect the peaceful color, the red dust and the world are all in the present, and the empty and bloody on the tower form a sharp contrast.

This sudden change rose sharply, Wen Yukou was so bold, Xiahou Shenxiao reacted quickly, grabbed her almost instantly, and pressed her the tower wall. Wen Yukou frowned slightly, her shoulders, back and arms all hurting. Xiahou Shenxiao lowered his head, the tip of his nose to the tip of his nose, and said to her in a very cold and light tone: "What do you see?" ”

"You killed them." Wen Yukou gritted her teeth, as if she couldn't bear the pressure on her shoulders, "But don't worry, I won't say it!" ”

Xiahou Shenxiao is just a teenager, but his slender body, hidden strength, full of oppression, is like a hand tightly choking Wen Yukou's throat. Wen Yukou knew that behind that handsome mask was a calculating face, he was not a lamp in the dark, but a knife in the dark, to stab the enemy in the heart when he was most relaxed.

For a long time, "How can I trust you?" ”

"Third Prince, I'm actually a person who likes to get straight to the point, and I also like to talk to smart people, no matter what you think in your heart, in short, I will do everything I can to protect myself at the moment before you make a move. And soon, the second sister who has been hostile to me will send someone up, the dead guards, and my corpse, will definitely put you in a predicament where you can't get out, I don't think the third prince will do this kind of loss-making business......"

Before she said the last sentence, Xiahou Shenxiao did intend to harm her life, this girl, although she was smart enough, but she lacked enough ruthlessness to try to protect herself, but she was always in a hurry. The person who really wants to do it will never say her intentions in advance, she may be threatening herself, but in front of Xiahou Shenxiao, who is so psychologically strong that even the ghosts and gods are afraid, her threat is not established.

"Well, your life doesn't matter to me. These guards only offended me for a moment, so I killed them, and if you don't get down the tower and insist on going up, I'm afraid the situation will not be much better. Xiahou Shenxiao still decided to give her a chance, after all, she still had something special......

Wen Yukou gently spat out a word: "No." ”

"Aren't you afraid of death?" Xiahou snorted coldly.

"I'm afraid, but I still have something to do." Must go up to the tower, she wants to know who Lu Dao will meet a year earlier...... Even if it is really as Xiahou Shenxiao said, there is no one, then she has to go and take a look, but she has a wish in her heart.
