Chapter 658: Gold and Silver Treasures
The ancient temple on a cold night, the lonely moon hangs high, the blood-colored lotus pond, the stumps and leaves, and the ghosts and shadows.
The whole picture presents a strangely heavy and eerie atmosphere, which makes people feel chills down their spines.
In this dark backdrop, a room lit by faint candlelight occupies the center of the picture.
There was a round table with carved red sandalwood facing the door, and two young women dressed as maids were lying on the table.
The cup in front of them toppled over, and the tea flowing from the cup was as red as blood.
On the bed next to the table, another woman was leaning sideways on her bent right arm, her long hair scattered, as if she were asleep.
But if you look closely, both the two maids lying on the table and the woman lying on the bed are dead.
One of the two maids was bleeding profusely from the back, and the other had a dagger stuck in her back.
There was a thin streak of blood on the neck on the bed, and the blood flowed down Bai Chen's neck, soaking the bedding.
In the dark night outside the window, a distant back can be faintly seen, unable to distinguish between men and women, and his face is unrecognizable......
There is an inscription in the upper right corner of the screen, "Farewell".
It's really annoying to look at a painting like this.
"What a mess." Chen Xinyi muttered dissatisfiedly, "This painting really shouldn't be a scene." ”
"Who said it shouldn't be the case, we just killed someone, and the same is true of this painting, but the murderer is the man in the first three paintings, who escaped late at night after killing the woman he once loved." The fox demon said, "It's just that I don't know if Skynet is restored, whether he can escape after all." ”
"Wei Zhonghou is dead, how can he still kill people? So the mystery ......"
Chen Xinyi stopped abruptly in the middle of her words, a trace of uneasiness flashed in her heart, and then she sneered.
Hui Bao Niang, who was standing behind her, hugged her daughter and looked at the sleeping Hui Bao with a sad expression.
Hui Bao was lying on Chen Xinyi's shoulder, but suddenly opened her eyes and winked at Hui Bao Niang, and her dark pupils glanced to the side.
Hui Bao Niang was stunned for a moment, and then she was overjoyed, but she didn't dare to show anything on her face.
Hui Baofu closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep again, and the milk was as cute as ever.
Chen Xinyi didn't know anything about all this, and after sneering, she said disdainfully, "There are quite a lot of metaphors in this painting. First, it is a metaphor that most of the love in the world ends in tragedy, at the beginning they are all in love, and when they really get together, they slowly begin to dislike each other, and in the end they are incompatible and incompatible. It's good to be able to get together and disperse, but the saddest thing is that the former lovers hate each other to the point of life and death. Heh, I hope such a tragic thing will fall on Chen Yunhuang's head......"
After a pause, he turned his head to look at Hui Bao Niang, and said quietly, "The first three paintings are the sweet past between you and Wei Zhonghou. However, Wei Zhonghou is already dead, so naturally he will not kill you again. Then this last picture means that you will eventually die inexplicably, and the murderer is unknown. Who do you think the killer will be? ”
"Huh?"
Hui Bao Niang was still surprised, sad, and apprehensive, and when she was asked, she couldn't help but be stunned.
Chen Xinyi saw that Hui Bao Niang's expression was different, and she looked at her and the girl suspiciously, and then looked at Hui Bao in her arms.
Hui Bao was still sleeping, and saliva was running down her shoulder.
Chen Xinyi didn't see anything unusual, and frowned slightly and waited for Hui Baoniang to answer.
"Your Majesty, this screen often changes the picture because of the weather, what is the meaning. With His Majesty's protection, our mother and son will be safe and well, how can we be killed? ”
Hui Bao Niang came back to her senses and hurriedly laughed.
"Oh? What does the weather have to do with it? In the past, this screen also changed the picture from time to time? ”
Chen Xinyi was very satisfied with her answer, and couldn't help but ask more.
And so it is. The first three of these four screens have become fewer, only the last one changes from time to time, sometimes it becomes several times a day, Your Majesty was surprised at first sight, and after a long time, he got used to it, and he didn't have to care. ”
Hui Bao Niang said.
The girl is not deeply involved in the world and can't lie, and just about to speak, she was secretly pinched by Hui Baoniang from behind.
Chen Xinyi breathed a sigh of relief, "I see. But why does this screen move its position on its own? Could it still have grown legs? ”
Hui Bao Niang said, "It's a wood carving frame, how can it move it by itself?" There must have been a guard to move it, and when we spoke in the main hall, they didn't dare to make a sound. ”
Chen Xinyi nodded, and glanced at the screen again, "I hope so." Now, take me to the basement. ”
Hui Bao Niang hurriedly responded and led the girl out in a hurry.
Chen Xinyi hugged Huibao for so long, her arm was a little numb, she raised her hand and pinched Huibao's face, "Have you slept enough?" Wake up and go down to the ground and walk on your own! ”
Huibao "slept" very sweetly and did not react.
Chen Xinyi had no choice but to continue to hold it, and when she walked out of the house door and saw two palace guards not far away, she beckoned one to come and let him hold Huibao.
Thinking that she would soon have countless gold and silver treasures, Chen Xinyi was in a good mood.
Although she is the seventh princess of Da Chen, she has not had much money for her to squander since she was a child.
I didn't expect that in this calamitous Eastern Wei Dynasty, she would be able to make a windfall, and in the future, she could use this windfall to recruit troops and do whatever she wanted......
Chen Xinyi couldn't help but smile, full of anticipation.
The group came to the ginkgo tree on the side of the garden at the back of the house.
Chen Xinyi was afraid that people would have many eyes and miscellaneous branches, so she slapped the guard holding Huibao to death.
Under the guidance of Hui Bao Niang, Chen Xinyi lifted a piece of turf with a square stone slab underneath.
Chen Xinyi effortlessly pried the stone slab, went down the steps, pushed open the heavy copper door, and what appeared in front of her made her dumbfounded.
It is no wonder that the second and third room ladies are afraid that the Wei family's property will be occupied by Hui Bao Niang, but there are too many gold and silver treasures piled up here, so much that it is dazzling and like falling into a dream.
The basement is brightly lit and the gold, silver and jewels are shining.
The walls of gold bricks are stacked one after another, and the hills of gold leaves are piled up one after another......
There are countless kinds of rare jewels and antiques, which are divided into large and small boxes.
A path that is only one step wide loops through it, and you can walk slowly with all kinds of treasures at your fingertips, and it makes you want to fly.
Chen Xinyi was ecstatic when she came back to her senses, and ran over, wanting to touch this pile and look at that pile.
However, just as she grabbed the two gold bricks, her eyes lit up, and the lights in the dungeon suddenly went out!
It was pitch black all around, and I couldn't see my fingers.
Chen Xinyi's eyes quickly adjusted to the darkness, but the dungeon was extremely silent, and the belongings were piled up in various shapes, like many monsters lurking in the dark.
Suddenly falling from the clouds of ecstasy into the fear of the unknown, only in the blink of an eye, this sudden change made Chen Xinyi angry.
"Damn it, who's making trouble?" Chen Xinyi roared angrily, "Hurry up and light the lamp for the palace!" Otherwise, this palace will kill you! ”
No one answered her, and her voice echoed through the dungeon, buzzing with an echo.
"Dare to cheat with the deity, you are really tired of life!"
Chen Xinyi opened her teeth and danced her claws, shouting wildly.
There was silence all around, and she felt nothing alive except her own screams and breathing.
Then, I only heard a knock on the door, which completely made Chen Xinyi panic......
