Chapter 157: The Sound of Conversation in the Stone Forest
Controlling strength is not difficult for a master, but she didn't expect it!
Therefore, Mo Ziyu's analysis was not unreasonable, Ling Lan nodded slightly, and put this idea aside first.
"My lord, how did these three maidservants get to the cave? Was it directly robbed from the Four Kings' Mansion by the murderer? Ye Feng asked in a low voice.
"If you think of it, their shoes won't get dirty, they should walk through on their own." Mo Ziyu responded.
Ye Feng frowned: "The subordinates also have such speculations, because their clothes and shoes are too dirty." ”
The gloomy eyes swept over the tabletop, and the three female corpses flashed in her mind, and Ling Lan lowered her eyes and took over: "It is very likely that it was someone familiar with the three handmaidens who brought them to the cave. ”
In fact, she has had such a thought for a long time, but there is no evidence to say, according to the current clues, there is such a possibility.
After being surprised, Ye Feng nodded again and again: "Yes!" Perhaps an acquaintance lured them to a cave and then took advantage of them to do something to them. ”
After sorting out the case, Ye Feng stayed behind to continue sorting it out, and Ling Lan and Mo Ziyu went to the Four Kings' Mansion as soon as possible.
Stepping into the mansion again after two days, Ling Lan had a strange feeling, as if nothing had happened here, and everyone was busy as usual.
Last time, everyone was still whispering and panicking, and there was a panic atmosphere in the crowd, but now it seems that everything has been forgotten in just two days.
"I'll go first, Steward Zhou will come over in a while, you understand the situation normally, leave me alone." She whispered.
Mo Ziyu stopped and looked sideways: "Are you sure?" ”
By implication, there's a good chance she's lost.
The sun was no longer so hot in the west, and Ling Lan took a few steps with a relaxed step: "Don't worry! I'm walking back after a long walk, and if you want to find me, I'll be waiting at the door. ”
"Okay, stay safe."
Ling Lan teased without looking back: "Yes, stay away from the ice cellar." ”
I did suffer a loss last time, but I can't say if I am still dumb and suffer from Coptis chinensis, who makes the family the fourth prince!
Of course, she has some preconceived ideas, thinking that she can't get rid of the relationship with the four princes, in fact, even if it has nothing to do with the other party, it is the other party's fault, after all, this is the Four Princes' Mansion and the other party's chassis.
Thoughts flashed, and she found that her opinion of Duan Yichen was not good.
After walking a little way, she didn't find a figure, could it be that she was in the wrong direction?
Just thinking about a strange stone forest composed of strange stones, different heights and stretches and circles around, but it is very characteristic and full of artistic conception, she slowed down her pace and looked in circles, among which there are stone paved paths to watch inside.
The surface of the layers of stones was uneven, some were covered with moss, and the surroundings were quiet, Ling Lan was looking at the tip of her nose suddenly with a faint fragrance of gardenias, holding her breath and taking a deep breath, she realized that there were other people nearby.
Because there are no gardenias around, even if there is a fragrance, it is a strong floral fragrance, and it will not be so light and mixed with other smells.
Just as he was thinking about it, there was a very light man's laughter inside: "Look at you, there is no one at all." ”
Ling Lan was shocked in her heart, there were people in this stone forest.
Soon I heard another choked woman whispering: "Why don't you go out and have a look, I really heard footsteps before!" ”
"Don't make a fuss, if someone heard the sound just now, it should be the wind! Don't cry, we have to go back early, it's not good if someone finds out. The man's voice was noticeably lower.
Ling Lan carefully adjusted her posture against the stone wall, looking inside through some gaps, but she was blocked from seeing the people inside at all.
When she was thinking about whether to change places, the weak and choked woman's voice sounded again: "Seventh brother, I dreamed of Xiaolian again last night, she was waving to me, saying that they were all waiting for me."
The last sentence was almost inaudible, and soon turned into a whimper and cry!
The man seemed to be very patient, and comforted softly: "You just think about it day and night, you two were the best before, always worry about her and naturally have nightmares, don't think about the past, we have to live well." ”
"But, however, I'm afraid that it will be my turn next." The woman continued to cry, her voice visibly raising a little with trepidation.
The man seemed to sigh lightly: "Don't be afraid, no one can hurt you with me." ”
Ling Lan pouted, this man didn't know if it was true or false, but what he said was good.
After a pause, the man whispered again, "If you really don't feel at ease, let's get out of here and start over in a place where no one knows us." ”
For some reason, Ling Lan felt that something was wrong with this sentence, and she couldn't think clearly for a while.
At this moment, the woman suddenly shouted badly, startling Ling Lan, thinking that she had been discovered.
The result was that the other party thought that something important had to go back immediately, Ling Lan frowned secretly, the sound of footsteps sounded in her ears and gradually moved away, the two of them went out from other directions, she strode forward and followed out of the stone forest, and her eyes suddenly opened up, and she could see a man and a woman walking away not far away, and quickly disappeared from sight.
The woman is well-proportioned, wears a green skirt, and has a wooden hairpin on her head that cannot be seen, while the man is tall and thin, wearing a blue cloth shirt, and walks with great strides.
She walked forward a little further, guessing that these two were both subordinates in the house, and it sounded like the girl and the third dead maidservant Xiaolian were friends, and there must be other hidden secrets, otherwise the other party would not say that it would be her turn next.
As for the man, he also knew a lot about it.
Regarding the interpersonal relationship between the three maidservants, whether it is Steward Zhou, Tianyi and others, the results of the investigation are similar, there is no useful news, and now it can be seen that the key person has not been found.
"Miss Ling!"
A familiar shout suddenly came from behind her, Ling Lan had a bad heart, and she just cared about avoiding Steward Zhou, how could she meet this again.
Whether you are speechless, you can't have less courtesy.
"The folk girl sees the four princes."
"Get up! Why are you here by yourself? What about Lord Mo? Duan Yichen asked and looked around.
"Back to the fourth prince, the slave maid felt that the scenery in the house was very good, so he asked Lord Mo for leave to go around here." She explained very seriously.
Duan Yichen's smile was a little subtle, but the smile quickly dissipated.
In fact, after several times, Ling Lan couldn't figure out the other party's thoughts, and always felt that there was something wrong with the man's state.
"Miss Ling is so elegant, this king happens to be idle, there is a stone forest over there, why don't you take this king over there to take you to watch." Duan Yichen's tone was gentle and full of demeanor.
Ling Lan looked at the stone forest not far behind her, and said in a calm tone with a light smile: "Thank you for your kindness, but the folk girl has just come from the stone forest, and there are indeed many strange stones that look good, but unfortunately the folk girl doesn't understand stones, and can only see that the placement is ingenious, and the small side of the world has an extraordinary artistic conception." ”
