readx;? The second young lady's pupils dilated and looked at Cheng Mo blankly. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe kid in front of him suddenly seemed to be a different person, and the tone and voice of his speech were actually different from before. Although her mouth was covered, she still made a muffled voice, "You—Do you want to rebel?"
Cheng Mo sneered, "You scolded me so many 'stupid' words before, but you didn't know that there was a thief in your own house." Who do you see these two people, do you know each other?" Because he was worried that Miss Er's yelling would attract more people, Cheng Mo still covered Miss Er's mouth and didn't let her shout.
The second young lady said vaguely: "You let go of me, I can't see clearly." ”
Cheng Mo pulled the second lady and slowly walked in front of the two of them. The second lady opened her eyes wide and carefully identified the facial features of the two people, and the last look of horror appeared on her face: she had never seen these two people.
In this abandoned dry well, it is undoubtedly a terrifying thing to see two strange men lying at the bottom of the well. The second lady suddenly became a little pale, and she was a little out of breath because of nervousness, and she inhaled heavily.
At this moment, the two strange men in front of her, as well as the unexpected teenager, made the second miss can't believe what was happening in front of her, she stayed in place in a daze, and the expression on her face was extremely weird.
Cheng Mo sneered and said, "There are even more weird things." He pulled the second lady to the two loose bluestone bricks, and with a gentle push of his hand, the bluestone bricks slid into the cave, and a hole was exposed.
The second lady's surprise was even more overflowing, she really didn't expect that there would be such a secret passage hidden in her house.
"This ......" The second lady looked at the entrance of the cave, unable to say a word.
"Second Miss, is this a secret passage dug up by your father?" asked Cheng Mo.
The second young lady shook her head in confusion, "I don't know ......"
The second young lady took a breath and finally struggled out of Cheng Mo's hands. Realizing the seriousness of the situation, she really stopped shouting, but glanced at Cheng Mo very cautiously, and then said, "Do you want me to call someone over?"
Cheng Mo shook his head, "Don't startle the snake first." You don't even know if your father dug it up or if someone else did. ”
"What then?" asked the second lady. At this moment, she has completely regarded Cheng Mo as a person in her camp, and she also trusts and relies on him 100%.
It's not surprising that anyone who finds a dry well in their backyard with a secret passage in the dry well can't help but feel creepy and at a loss. I don't know how many secrets are hidden in this well, and how many nights I have spent with them, it is really scary to think about.
"Is there anyone in your house who has the highest cultivation?" asked Cheng Mo.
The second lady said: "My father's cultivation is extremely high, but he has been on the expedition for half a year and is not at home now. The second is my sister, but my sister is now sick in bed, and there are few powerful people left in the family. ”
Cheng Mo nodded, it seems that there is indeed no one in the prince's mansion, otherwise these foreign characters would not invade the prince's mansion so easily. Even himself was mixed in, which shows that the prince's mansion is now empty and defenseless.
The second lady didn't speak, but stared at Cheng Mo for a while, and then said, "Who are you?"
Cheng Mo knew that the second miss would eventually ask this question, all his current performance was not like Tan Liwu at all, and there was no point in pretending to be any longer. His gaze fell lightly on the second lady's face, but seeing the latter's nervous and cautious expression, the little girl was probably frightened, and she no longer had the domineering appearance she had before.
Cheng Mo saw that although the two young ladies were rude, they were not completely foolish, so he gently wiped off the disguise on his face, revealing his true appearance. The second lady said "ah", and when she saw a handsome and unfamiliar face, she couldn't help but be surprised in place.
"Second Miss, to tell you the truth, I am a student of the Great Zhou Academy. These **** received a mission from the academy, saying that the fugitive Ke Duole with the iron-level pursuit order was hiding near the prince's mansion, and in order to complete the task, I took the liberty of pretending to be Tan Liwu to sneak into your mansion and wanted to capture Ke Duole. Cheng Mo paused, and said: "It turns out that there are indeed many suspicious things in your mansion, and I followed the clues to find this place and found this suspicious well." ”
The second young lady looked at Cheng Mo in a daze and asked, "When did you pretend to be Tan Liwu?"
"That's when I met Second Miss this morning. Cheng Mo replied.
The second lady looked at Cheng Mo carefully for a long time, thinking of how many words of "stupidity" she had scolded him, and she couldn't help but blush, and she had a feeling of being fooled. This is also the first time that the second lady has scolded someone, but she feels that she has been teased. This feeling is very bad, she snorted, turned her head and didn't want to deal with Cheng Mo.
"I found a suspicious person in your mansion, and I don't know if the second lady knows him. It was a mute with only half a truncated tongue, a slightly lame foot, and a swaying walk. Cheng Mo asked.
The second young lady pondered for a long time and said, "Uncle Yu, he seems to have been coming to us for a year. What's wrong with him?"
Cheng Mo pondered for a while, "He's not really crippled. ”
The second young lady was stunned, "Why?"
Cheng Mo said: "I looked at his footprints, usually speaking, one foot deep and one foot shallow. But where there was no one, I found that the depth of his footprints was the same. It is estimated that he is a little unaccustomed to pretending to be lame for a long time, so he adjusted his pace when there was no one. ”
The second young lady was stunned and muttered, "No...... I really haven't looked at this closely. Or I'll go find him now. ”
Cheng Mo shook his head, "No need, he's in this secret passage." Cheng Mo pointed to the secret passage at the mouth of the well.
The second lady took a deep breath, "Then what else do you say, let's go in and have a look." ”
"Together?" Cheng Mo immediately had a negative look on his face.
Let yourself bring a drag oil bottle into the Longtan Tiger's Den? How deep is this secret passage, how many enemies are in it, whether there will be strong opponents, these are not known, and you have to bring yourself a drag oil bottle?
"What's the matter, you don't take me?" the second lady crossed her hands on her hips and sneered, "If you don't take me, I will immediately go to Uncle Huang and ask him to move the rescuers." Since you have taken on a task, if this task is completed by someone else, you will not get points. "The second lady's sister is studying at the Great Zhou Academy, so the second miss is also very clear about these points system of the Great Zhou Academy.
Cheng Mo didn't expect that he was being blackmailed, and he regretted that he was too honest at the moment and told the second lady the truth. Seeing Cheng Mo hesitate, the second lady became more and more proud: "Although my cultivation is not as good as my sister, I am not weak." I plan to take the Dazhou University next year and reunite with my sister. I am now a cultivator of the eighth order of the Spirit Seed Stage, and this kind of cultivation is already considered to be the top among my peers. Moreover, this is my home, I am more familiar than you, and if I encounter any emergencies, I will know how to deal with them better than you. After speaking, he looked at Cheng Mo expectantly.
Cheng Mo stretched out his hand and wiped it on his face, his heart filled with a feeling of helplessness.
Take her, although she is a drag oil bottle, but she is also right, this is her home, and she is more familiar with everything here, including that Uncle Yu.
He originally wanted to wait a little longer, but the second miss was already a little disgusted with her behavior of pretending to be Tan Liwu, if she let the second miss know that the tutor was also pretending to be a servant in the house, it was estimated that she would complain to the school fiercely. Even if the mission is successful, it is difficult to explain it to the university.
Cheng Mo thought about it and nodded, "It's okay." (To be continued.) )
