Early in the morning, Mu Qing took Chu Yi and the other three to visit the local scenic spots such as the Chicken Mother Altar, the Immortal Beckoning Rock and so on. This trip swept away the tension and depression of many days, and had a lot of fun. When he returned, it was almost noon, and as soon as he crossed the threshold of the inn, Mu Qing saw the sea of Duanmu flowers at a glance. I saw that she was wearing a half-arm light Luo shirt on her top, a red long skirt underneath, a silver gilt arm tied to each arm, her crisp chest was slightly exposed, and her jade arms were open. Every move, every move, indescribable charming, a smile, endless thousands of styles.

Almost at the same time, Duanmu Huahai also saw Mu Qing, beckoned to Mu Qing, and motioned for him to come over.

Fang Liusheng's eyes straightened, and he said enviously: "Brother Mu is not shallow." ”

Chu Yi was jealous and scolded angrily: "Slut." He turned his head and asked Mu Qing: "Do you know her?" ”

Mu Qing was very embarrassed and said, "I've only seen it twice." ”

I don't know when, Duanmu Huahai actually came over, looked Chu Yi up and down, and praised: "No wonder Mu Daxia rejected me repeatedly, it turned out that he had already hidden Jiao in the golden house." ”

Chu Yi didn't pay attention to Duanmu Huahai, and pulled Mu Qing to go upstairs, but he didn't want Duanmu Huahai to hook Mu Qing's arm, and said softly: "Mu Daxia, does the slave family still have something to say to you?" ”

"You!" Chu Yi was so angry that he couldn't speak, just waiting for Mu Qing's choice.

Mu Qing turned his head to Chu Yi and said, "Don't worry, I'll come when I go, you go back to the room first." With that, he left with Duanmu Huahai.

Chu Yi originally wanted to stop him, but was grabbed by Xu Hancai and said, "You have to believe that Brother Mu is not that kind of person." ”

Chu Yi was also convinced of Mu Qing's character, thinking of this, he felt a little more at ease, and he didn't bother with Duanmu Huahai, and after glancing at her, he went upstairs.

Duanmu Huahai sat down opposite Mu Qing and asked, "Do you know that I almost killed you last time?" ”

Mu Qing nodded, answered, and asked, "But why don't you do it?" ”

Duanmu Huahai responded: "You are different from others, you are unique, I am reluctant to start." ”

This sentence provoked Mu Qing's face to blush, a little panicked, and he didn't know what to say for a while. After a while, seeing that she was alone today, she asked, "What about that friend of yours?" ”

"Yin Xian, you say?" Duanmu Huahai said with a disdainful face: "He's just a minion, not a friend." After a pause, he said, "Yesterday he had convulsions, and he dragged me to sleep in the wilderness, and I was not used to living there, so today he ran back again." ”

Mu Qing asked, "Aren't you afraid that he will come looking for you?" ”

Duanmu Huahai responded: "In the past two days, he has been mysterious, and he seems to be doing something unseemly. He was afraid that I would know about it, so he often avoided me, and now that I have disappeared by myself, it has fulfilled him, and he is too late to be happy, how can he come to look for me? ”

Mu Qing asked, "Do you know what he's planning?" ”

Duanmu Huahai said: "I'm afraid you know this better than me?" ”

Mu Qing asked, "How do you say this?" ”

Duanmu Huahai said: "I once overheard, he once mentioned you, what other mountain villas, what treasures." ”

Mu Qing blurted out: "Lanyue Villa? ”

Duanmu Huahai was noncommittal, only to see her sly smile and say, "You really want to know what he is going to do next, right?" I can help you find out. ”

"This?" Mu Qing was very difficult.

Duanmu Huahai reminded: "I'm helping you." ”

Mu Qing said: "This is what I hesitate about, why do you want to help me?" ”

Duanmu Huahai said with a smile: "Of course, it is not without a price, in return, you have to accompany me for a day, as for which day, it is up to me to decide." ”

Mu Qing didn't refuse, he agreed, he asked, "How can I contact you?" ”

"Don't worry, I'll let you know when the time comes." Duanmu Huahai paused for a moment, and then said, "Oh, by the way, Yin Xian will go to a certain place in the villa tonight." ”

Mu Qing asked, "Where?" ”

Duanmu Flower Sea Road: "Forget Moon Lake"

Leyue Lake is a place with a beautiful scenery in the mountain villa, there are dozens of milky white Taihu Lake stones in the lake, these stones are of different sizes, different shapes, and the posture is graceful, like a dancer who is always ready, just waiting for the music to sound, it will dance. It's a pity that the people who know how to appreciate them are gone, and at this time they are covered with moss and a little lonely.

The moonlight tonight is particularly beautiful, the moonlight is sprinkled on the surface of the lake without reservation, the breeze sways the lake, the lake water stirs the stone shadows, in a trance, as if they are all alive.

Hao Kuiwu is here again, as always. Hao Kuiwu seemed to be tired of the Man in the Iron Mask, or had lost faith in him, and pushed him straight to the edge of Lethe Moon Lake, and then abandoned him.

The man in the iron mask tilted his neck, drooped his head, and looked at the Taihu Lake Stone vacantly, without a trace of brilliance in his eyes.

After Hao Kuiwu's footsteps disappeared completely, suddenly a figure jumped out of the Taihu Lake Stone and reached the front of the iron-masked man, and the person who came was Ding Dushan.

After Ding Dushan circled around the iron-masked man, he squatted down and took off the iron mask, which was a face that had been swallowed by fire, extremely ugly, extremely terrifying, but also extremely calm, without the slightest emotion.

Ding Dushan said to the man in the iron mask: "Don't blame me for being ruthless, you know too much, I can't keep you, the secret here is like this villa, let it be forgotten gradually." He pulled out a dagger and, with a lift of his hand, stabbed at the Man in the Iron Mask.

"Ah......h He looked around, but found no figure. Just as he was hesitating, there was a rush of footsteps, getting more and more urgent, getting closer and closer. He leapt and disappeared into the night.

Hao Kuiwu hurriedly ran out and pushed the man in the iron mask to leave quickly.

Hao Kuiwu had just walked with his front foot, and he saw a person running out of the lake with his back foot, and it was actually Yinxian. He picked up the dagger that Ding Dushan had just discarded, flew into the lake again, and landed on a Taihu Lake stone. He slashed at the stone with the dagger in his hand, only to hear a "clang" sound, and the stone fell in response to the sound and fell into his hand. He shone the stone against the moonlight, and instantly became excited. He suppressed his joy, dug a handful of black mud from the lake, covered it with a gap in the stone, looked left and right, and then disappeared into the darkness.

In fact, there were not only Ding Dushan and Yin Xian hidden in the lake, but Mu Qing was also hidden in it, and the scene of Fang Cai was seen by him. After Yin Xian left, Mu Qing appeared out, came to the cut Taihu Lake stone, wiped off the black mud, and looked at the moonlight, just a glance, and understood.

"It turns out that this Lethe Moon Lake is the so-called hidden realm, and the Taihu Lake Stone is not a real stone, but is made of gold." Early the next morning, when Mu Qing told Chu Yi and the others the news, they were all boiling, especially Fang Liusheng.

Except for Mu Qing, Xu Han was the calmest one, Mu Qing saw him with a thoughtful look, and asked, "Is there anything suspicious?" ”

Xu Hancai said: "According to what Ding Dushan said, he and the Man in the Iron Mask should be old acquaintances, and he said that the Man in the Iron Mask knows many secrets of the villa, so the man in the iron mask must also be a person from the villa, and Ding Dushan is also nine times out of ten." Hao Chongtian once said that there is only one survivor in the villa, and that is Hao Ziqi, so the question is, if one of them is Haozi, then who will the other be? ”

"Have you ever thought that Hao Chongtian is lying?"

Everyone looked back and found that it was Fang Liusheng who spoke, and when they saw that he looked scared, they guessed that he must know something, and everyone urged him to say quickly, but he was not in a hurry, and only said "It's a long story" and then went to eat. After a cup of tea, he saw that everyone couldn't bear it anymore, so he said: "The owner of Lanyue Villa is named Hao Qiushou, and he has six sons under his knees, namely Ziyu, Zibian, Zisheng, Zijun, Zidao, and Ziqi. Hao Qiushou has a younger sister, because her husband's family has suffered a change, so she entrusted a son and three daughters to Hao Qiushou, and asked him to pay for the support, these four people are surnamed Ouyang, named Zichang, Xihe, Yuebai, and Zisu. Hao Qiushou is also conscientious, treating them as his own, especially Xihe, Yuebai, and Zisu, as soon as they became adults, they promised them to their sons, the so-called kisses and kisses. ”

Chu Yi was a little impatient when she heard this, and asked: "You have been rambling for a long time, saying something we know, you don't make a long story short, be careful that I tear your mouth." ”

Fang Liusheng was afraid of Chu Yi and was so frightened by her, so he began to pick out the key points and said: "It is rumored that Ouyang Zichang is good at business, Hao Qiushou appreciates it very much, so he handed over all the business of the villa to him to take care of, and he lived up to expectations, took care of the business in an orderly manner, made a lot of money." Although Hao Qiushou treated him very well, after all, he was sent under the fence, and it was inevitable that he would not think nonsense, and later he actually got the idea of the villa and wanted to take it for himself, so he colluded with the robbers outside to kill all the people in the villa. As for what will come to pass, you will know. ”

Xu Hancai asked: "According to your meaning, Ouyang Zichang is not dead, so where did the person go?" ”

Fang Liusheng said: "It is rumored that he disappeared for no reason, as for where he is now, I don't know." ”

Xu Hancai asked, "Could the Man in the Iron Mask be him?" ”

Mu Qing responded: "It's possible, I heard Hao Kuiwu call him a young master." ”

Xu Hancai said: "In this way, it is reasonable, Ding Dushan is Hao Ziqi, and the man in the iron mask is Ouyang Zichang, Ouyang Zichang caused Hao Ziqi's family to be ruined, no wonder he wants to kill the man in the iron mask to take revenge." Only in this way can the secret of the treasure be kept. ”

"But there's still something unclear." Mu Qing asked, "If the secret of the Hidden Realm is only known by these two people, then how did Yin Xian know it?" Apparently he came prepared last night, not by coincidence. ”

"This?" Xu Hancai shook his head and said, "It seems that we still only know one thing, but we don't know the other, which is far more complicated than we imagined." ”

After another conversation, the four of them went back to their rooms.

After a while, when Mu Qing was still immersed in his thoughts, a sudden gust of wind burst open the window and blew in many flower petals. The petals first flew around Mu Qing, and then landed on the table in an impartial and orderly manner. When he got closer, he saw eight words spelled out from flower petals on the table: "When it's ugly tonight, Lanyue Villa." ”
