Chapter 234: The Chamber of Secrets (I)
() After staring for a long time, Qiao Zhengyu said: "Who is this person, looking at this ornament, it seems that someone is here to offer it?"
Lingqueer said: "Well, look at this person dressed in wealth and dignity, and his temperament is extraordinary, but he doesn't look like an ordinary ordinary person." ”
I looked at them one by one from the table, but when I saw something, my eyes lit up, and I stepped forward.
"Brother Qiao, what do you think that's that?" said Lingque'er, pointing to a wooden sign in the middle of the table.
Qiao Zhengyu stepped forward and looked at it for a moment, shook his head and said, "Strange, this seems to be a tablet, but what is puzzling is that there is no word written on it, how can this be?"
"Well, I think it's like it, but who will be the person who is making the offer?" Lingque'er pondered for a while, and suddenly exclaimed: "Brother Qiao, do you think this could be a certain owner of Mantuo Villa? ”
Qiao Zhengyu pondered for a moment and said, "There is a possibility. After these two days of contact, I found that Yan Shigui had great respect for his ancestors. This is the Mantuo Villa, and it is reasonable for the ancestors to be enshrined in the village, and there is nothing wrong with it.
"Also, I've always been unable to figure out what happened last night, and now it seems that that person is very likely to be Yan Shigui. I think that after he came back, he never had time to worship his ancestors, so he came to worship late at night after we were asleep. ”
Lingque'er said: "Brother Qiao should be right, only Yan Shigui lives here in the entire Mantuo Villa, and there are no other people." Only this possibility can everything be justified, everything is so logical, and there is no doubt at all. ”
Nodding slightly, he was silent for a moment, and then said, "Although I said."
That's so, but I still don't understand a little bit, since this person is the ancestor of Mantuo Villa, why didn't he write his name?"
Qiao Zhengyu looked at the portrait and said: "This is indeed a very strange thing, maybe this owner is too sharp, or there is something hidden that cannot be told, so the person who set up the card does not want people to know his name."
"However, no matter what, at least one thing is certain, this person must have been an extremely remarkable figure when he was alive, otherwise, Yan Shigui would never have left him alone here. ”
"Well, maybe. He turned to look at him and said, "Brother Qiao, let's look around again and see if we can find other clues." ”
Qiao Zhengyu nodded slightly, and the two then took a closer look in the room.
Sure enough, a large box was found in a corner of the house, and some books were found in it, which recorded some important deeds of Mantuo Mountain Villa and information about the owners of the village.
"Strangely, these books record the names of the owners of Mantuo Villa, but the person in the portrait has no record. ”
Originally, the contents of the book were very detailed, and on the side of the introduction of each owner, there was a corresponding image drawn, and the name and related deeds were attached. Qiao Zhengyu looked at it for a long time, but he didn't find any information about the person in the portrait.
"Oh, let me see. The sparrow took the book and looked through it carefully.
"Brother Qiao, look here, it's really strange, why is there only a few words 'Kaibao Nine Years' written on the whole paper, and I don't know what it means?"
Qiao Zhengyu pondered: "I also saw this page just now, I think maybe the person who recorded it wants to express something."
But it's really hard to write, so I don't write anymore after writing a beginning. ”
The two of them looked through the other scrolls, but found nothing, so they sorted them out a little and closed the box.
Seeing that there were no more clues, Lingque said: "Brother Qiao, it's not early, I think we should go back too." Otherwise, if Yan Shigui finds out, it won't be good. ”
Qiao Zhengyu had this intention, nodded slightly, and then, the two walked towards the door.
As soon as he walked a few steps, he suddenly saw Lingque'er's face change slightly, looked at Qiao Zhengyu and said, "Wait a minute, Brother Qiao, this ground seems to be a little wrong." He stopped, crouched down, and gently patted the ground under his feet with his hand.
"Knock, knock, knock. "The underground is obviously empty, otherwise, there would never be such a sound.
Qiao Zhengyu was feeling strange, and when he saw Lingque'er's face happy, he nodded and said, "Well, there is really a problem." Reaching out and removing a brick from the ground, an object in the shape of a handle was revealed.
"Hey, what is this?" Qiao Zhengyu stretched out his hand to hold it, and with a slight pull, he heard the rumbling of the wall in the middle. After a while, a door opened on the side of the portrait, and it was pitch black inside, but nothing could be seen clearly.
Qiao Zhengyu was stunned for a moment, but saw Lingque'er take down the red candle and said, "Why are you still stunned, go in." Then he came to his senses and walked through the door with the sparrow.
As the two entered, the room suddenly brightened up a lot. In front of the two of them was a small secret room, surrounded by walls and empty. In the center of it is a spiritual platform with a delicate stand and a large axe.
