Chapter 62: The Underground Secret Chamber
Ye Dong listened intently, although it was only a woman's light cough, but he affirmed that this was indeed a gentle voice.
What's wrong with her, is she sick?
But when I met her on the street during the day, it was fine.
Looking at the reflection on the window, graceful and weak, Ye Dong had the urge to push the door in and embrace it into his arms.
But in the end, Ye Dong just stood quietly in front of the window and outside the door, quietly looking at the shadow, and couldn't help but smile in his eyes.
The night is deeper, there is no moon tonight, the starlight is dim, Ye Dong stood in the dark, silent, as if it had condensed into air.
I don't know how long it took, maybe the fuel ran out, and the lights in the gentle room finally went out, and at that moment, it seemed as if the last bit of light in the world had completely disappeared.
But Ye Dong didn't feel surprised or uncomfortable, and seemed to have long been used to it.
He stood outside again for a long time, until he felt the chill in the night wind, until everything fell into a deep sleep.
Dawn was approaching, the rooster was crowing, Ye Dong toured the Wen Mansion again, and then he came out of the wall along the way he came.
At this moment, the streets of Lizhou have finally quieted down, a little prosperous and down, and returned to a simple feeling.
Ye Dong walked on the quiet and deserted streets of Khotan, only Gollum, who had fallen asleep in his arms, was still accompanied, at this moment when he should have been sleeping, his mind was extremely sober and calm.
He walked slowly back to the inn and quietly returned to his room.
The next day was a good day, and the streets of Lizhou were still bustling and lively, no different from before.
After another two days, during which in the dead of night, Ye Dong would go to the Wen Mansion and enter over the wall to inquire about the situation in the Wen Mansion.
After three days, Ye Dong learned some information and got a few news, one is that Wen Rou suffered from a strange disease, invited many famous doctors, and took all kinds of panacea, but they were useless and ineffective; The wealthy man turned into a businessman; third, the Wen and Chu families fought openly and secretly, and there have been several confrontations, and in general, the Wen family has suffered a small loss.
Knowing this, Ye Dong already had a plan in his heart, he was a person who had revenge and repaid his kindness, the Chu family had a grudge against him, and the Wen family had a grudge against him, what to do, his heart was bright. However, he never does something that he is not sure of, and if he wants to do it, he must do it to the extreme, so as to kill him with one blow, and if he does not die by beating the snake, he will only suffer from it.
A plan, presented in his mind, was vague at first, but gradually became clear and refined.
Not only did he have to complete this plan, but he also had to heal the disease of Gentleness as much as possible, because Gentleness was one of the few people who was willing to be truly good to him.
It's late at night, and it's silent.
Ye Dong quietly left the inn, and almost all of the men sent by Wang Mingshan were pustules, either asleep, or they were thrown off by Ye Dong in two or three clicks, making them dizzy.
The Chu family's access control is also strict, but for Ye Dong, it is really easy to get in.
But even so, Ye Dong is still very cautious, hiding his aura, he is not afraid of any master here, but, for the personable young master Chu Tiankuo of the Chu family, somehow, he has a deep sense of vigilance, it seems that deep in his heart, there is an intuition and premonition that this person is extremely dangerous, and he is definitely not a good person.
Avoiding the doorman, Ye Dong went around to the backyard and entered over the wall, and there were several teams of people patrolling inside.
Ye Dong observed carefully and found that these patrol guards were divided into three groups, each team of five people, he wrote down the time frequency of the patrol guards and the location of the patrol, and then took advantage of this gap to quickly sweep in.
The Chu family is very big, Ye Dongdong looked for it, and finally came to a secluded place, it was a very large house, the lights were blind in it, and there was no one to guard this place, Ye Dong felt very strange.
At this time, a dark house was suddenly opened, and two people came out of it, one of whom Ye Dong recognized as Chu Tiankuo.
Chu Tiankuo was very alert, first looked left and right, looked around carefully, and after making sure that there was no one else, he talked to the old man next to him in a low voice.
This old man is dressed in a gorgeous robe and has a majestic bearing, and it is very likely that he is Chu Tiankuo's father, that is, the head of the Chu family.
Fortunately, the night was quite dark, and Chu Tiankuo did not have the ability to see through the darkness like Ye Dong, so he couldn't find Ye Dong's whereabouts.
Ye Dong not only has good eyesight, but his hearing is also quite good, although the conversation between Chu Tiankuo and his father is very small, but Ye Dong still hears a rough idea.
It seems that there is a very important and important secret hidden in this house, which involves the collapse of the Wen family and the domination of Lizhou.
Ye Dong wanted to listen carefully, but the two did not continue to talk, and quickly left this place.
These two people were so cautious in their own homes that they couldn't help but make Ye Dong think of the word forbidden land.
Thinking like this, the door in the dark, which had just been opened and closed by Chu Tiankuo, was suddenly filled with a certain temptation.
Ye Dong waited for Chu Tiankuo's father and son to go far away, and then quietly walked to the door of the room, he stopped and stood for a moment, as if he was thinking about whether to open it or not.
As if sensing a hint of hesitation, there was a strange sound in the room, as if inviting him.
For some reason, the door was unlocked.
Ye Dong didn't hesitate any longer, stretched out his right hand, put it on the door, and slowly pushed it inside.
With a slight "squeak", the door slowly opened, and it was pitch black inside, even with Ye Dong's vision, he could only see a vague outline.
Ye Dong walked in, took a turn inside, and found that there didn't seem to be anything special inside.
Could it be that I was too careful, and these two fathers and sons just came here to talk about things?
After thinking about it, Ye Dong denied this idea, it looks like the furnishings and layout of the study, it stands to reason that the study should ensure that the light is bright enough, but they don't even light the lights in it, which is really abnormal.
Ye Dong continued to walk inside, and when he walked to the innermost, there was only a wall in front of him, would that extremely important and extremely important secret really be hidden in it?
His mind was puzzled again, and suddenly, his gaze fell on the ground next to the wall, and something felt wrong.
Looking away slightly, he knew what the problem was, there was a carpet on the floor of this room, but there was only that floor, there was none.
Ye Dong looked at those bookshelves, and his eyes finally fell on the row of bookshelves closest to him, the placement of books on them seemed to be a little tired, and the rest of the places were placed vertically, only the middle one was placed horizontally, and the number was also smaller, and the left side was a large empty.
Ye Dong touched the book on the far left, and found that the book was just a piece of wood, which was connected to the bookshelf, he pulled it hard, and the wooden book slid to the left for a distance, and at the same time, the piece of ground that was not covered by the carpet suddenly slid forward, revealing a corner of the ground.
Ye Dong looked at it fixedly, and saw that there seemed to be bursts of black gas emanating from below.
