Benduo is something he has comprehended, and there is no discipline, after practicing for a while, Li Tianqi has felt clueless, looking at the black house in front of him, thinking of the scene of meeting the cat demon last night, he couldn't help but move, the door of the black house was not locked, he pushed it gently, the door opened, he stepped into the black room again, and now the light is abundant during the day, and the things inside can be seen very clearly.

The deadbolt behind the door was broken, apparently pulled from the inside by an external force. No wonder Xiao Yan used something in the house to block the door last night.

The futon on the big bed has been folded neatly, indicating that Xiaoyan is still a very sensible and well-behaved girl.

Judging from the demeanor that Xiaoyan once expressed, he was afraid of this black house. But now it seems that it is just a relatively remote place. After all, close to the woods in this back garden, you can't see your fingers at night, the shadows of the trees, and the howling wind will make people feel lonely and scared, even an adult man, and he may not have the courage to spend the night here, let alone a weak woman like Xiao Yan.

What happened to Xiaohong? Xiaoyan swore that she didn't leave. And I also feel that Xiaohong is actually not far away. Li Tianqi recalled what Xiao Yan had said to him, and his heart began to stir, and he continued to observe the house, hoping to find some clues.

Suddenly, a little mouse came running from nowhere, picked up something on the ground, and ate it. Li Tianqi couldn't help but think of the two mice in the mountain temple, and he felt that he could still understand what the mice said.

"Little mouse, where is Xiaohong, do you know?" said Li Tianqi as he squatted down.

The little mouse squeaked, quickly ran away, and hid by the wall.

Li Tianqi didn't understand.

"Hey. Li Tianqi shook his head, stood up, walked in front of the little mouse again, and squatted down, "Say it." ”

The little mouse was startled, ran around the house, and then got under the bed.

"So naughty. Li Tianqi was still childlike, and was amused by this little mouse, prostrate down, and looked under the bed, but found no trace of the little mouse.

Li Tianqi had a question, and after a closer look, he found a wooden board that had been removed under the bed.

He climbed forward a few times, came to the bottom of the bed, there was a tunnel entrance, there was a moisture at the entrance, although the black winter could not see the bottom, but by the light of the day, there were still vague stairs extending below, before thinking about it, he turned his body, his feet touched the stairs first, and then slowly walked down the stairs.

Li Tianqi took out a Heavenly Master talisman, cast a spell and ignited it, and watched the success of the spell again, and a burst of joy passed through his heart.

The burning flames lit up the ground, which was not deep, about a foot above the ground.

There was a extinguished candle not far from the tunnel, and he quickly lit it. At this time, the Heavenly Master Talisman in his hand had burned out. He took the candle and continued on his way.

The tunnel structure was not complicated, it was very long, and he didn't know how long he walked, until he finally came to a small room, which was not locked, so he pushed the door open as soon as he pushed it.

"What's the use of setting up these in this foreign mansion?" Li Tianqi said to himself.

Although the small room was small, there was everything inside, there was a spacious wooden bed, the bedding on it was a little messy, and the tea set was also placed, but there was a faint musty smell. Li Tianqi lit the lamp on the small table in the room, and the light was much brighter. Only then did he realize that there were seven or eight rats hiding in the futon, watching him vigilantly, and the ground was full of rat feces and rat urine, as if this had become their little world.

Li Tianqi frowned slightly, blew out the lights in the room, then took the candle, exited the small room, and closed the door.

Coming out of the tunnel, there was another breeze, almost blowing out the candle in his hand, Li Tianqi hurriedly guarded the flames, at this time there was darkness in the depths on both sides of the tunnel, so silent that he seemed to be able to hear his heartbeat.

Just as he continued to walk forward to find a way out, suddenly a sobbing sound was remembered in the darkness of the tunnel.

"Who?" Li Tianqi blurted out. The voice stopped abruptly.

Li Tianqi didn't pay attention to which side the voice came from, and looked left and right.

However, the sobbing voice did not appear.

Maybe I heard it wrong. Li Tianqi thought to himself. As he walked on, he could faintly see a staircase at the end of the tunnel. Suddenly, the smoke from the burning candle gradually formed, and a plain woman with her hair and her face could not be seen clearly stood in front of him.

Li Tianqi had never seen such a scene, and subconsciously pulled out a Heavenly Master talisman, and was about to recite the incantation. At that moment, the woman said, "Don't be afraid, young man. ”

"Are you a human or a demon?" asked Li Tianqi tremblingly.

"Shaoxia, please help the little girl take revenge. The plain woman knelt on the ground.

After all, Li Tianqi had experienced life and death, and when he saw this, he began to grow bolder, and said with a little calmness: "Who are you?" Catching a glimpse of some scars on her right wrist, his heart moved, "Are you a little ...... Little Red?"

The plain woman nodded and began to cry.

Sure enough, it was Xiaohong, Li Tianqi was secretly happy in his heart, his hard work paid off, and he found it by mistake, and he could give Xiaoyan an explanation. He hurriedly stretched out his hand to help Xiaohong up, but he was empty.

"Ahh Li Tianqi was stunned.

Xiaohong swayed in the smoke for a while, and then reappeared, but she didn't want to show her face.

"Little Red. Li Tianqi already understood in his heart at this time.

Little Red cried even more, even more desolate in the dark tunnel.

Li Tianqi didn't know how to comfort people, let alone women. He could only wait in silence.

Little Red gradually stopped crying.

"Xiaohong, what's wrong with your face?" Li Tianqi had already noticed that Xiaohong always covered her face with her hair, so she asked questions.

Xiaohong shook her head, reluctant to speak, and the cry gradually rose again.

"Xiaohong, don't cry, I won't mention this anymore. Seeing this, Li Tianqi didn't ask again: "I am also a blood feud, although I don't have any ability now, but I will do my best to help you, for you, for Xiaoyan." ”

When Xiaohong heard this, she stopped crying and looked at Li Tianqi: "Shaoxia, you are also ......"

Li Tianqi's tears also wanted to burst out of his eyes, but he held back, he couldn't admit it in front of the woman. He recounted how he had fled from the village until he had reached here. After hearing this, Xiaohong was very sympathetic, and turned her head as if to wipe her tears.

"It's much better to say it, don't call me Shaoxia anymore, my name is Li Tianqi. Li Tianqi forced a smile and cleaned up the sentimental past.

"Hmm. Xiaohong said, "Li Gongzi." ”

"You look like you're about my age, so call me Apocalypse. Don't be a child. Li Tianqi said.

"Apocalypse. ”

"Hmm. ”

Li Tianqi said: "Now let's talk about you, Xiaohong." ”

Xiaohong sorted out her emotions and said: "A few months ago, the old thief came back from his retirement in Chang'an City, and the mansion began to be as orderly as ever, with the eldest lady managing everything, and the eldest lady was kind to me and Xiaoyan, and treated us like her own daughters, but later, ...... The eldest lady was injured in a sudden accident, lying on the hospital bed and never getting up, because there was no heir, the old thief also took the two little ladies off and began to take charge of all the affairs of the house, and we maids were naturally rearranged. The old thief arranged for me...... Take care of his daily life. ”

Xiaohong sighed and continued: "At the beginning, I was relatively happy, because after all, I was a maid who served the old thief, and the salary was naturally much higher than that of ordinary servants. But then, the old thief always found all kinds of excuses to ...... me Move your hands and feet. ”

When Li Tianqi heard this, he seemed to have some understanding, and his hands couldn't help clenching into fists.

"Of course I don't. I found many reasons to prevaricate, but the eldest lady was kind to me and took me in since I was a child, so I couldn't leave, and I couldn't ignore her when I saw her seriously ill and bedridden. Xiaohong raised her hand to wipe her tears again, "One day, I brought medicinal tea to the eldest lady, who knows, ......" seemed to recall the terrifying scene again, Xiaohong couldn't help but cry again.

"Don't cry, Xiaohong, don't worry, you speak slowly. Li Tianqi comforted.

After sobbing for a while, Xiaohong said again: "I saw that the old thief was sitting on the eldest lady and pinching her neck. Still yelling and cursing the eldest lady, I rushed over desperately, but it was too late, and I saw the eldest lady wake up from her coma with a pair of bloodshot eyes, glaring at me, staring at me...... It seemed that he wanted to say something, but he could no longer make a sound. ”

"I'm late. If I had come earlier......" Little Red regretted.

After a while, Xiaohong continued: "The old thief viciously threatened me not to make a noise, and then punished me to stay in a dark room for one night. She paused for a moment and said, "That night, I smelled some special aroma in the little dark room, because I was on guard, so I blocked my nose and lay on the edge of the hole in the wooden house to breathe, but suddenly there was an old thief in the room, he thought I was unconscious, hugged me, I quickly struggled, trying to escape, and then struggling, my bracelet was not known where he snatched it." Later, I found out that Xiao Yan had picked it up. ”

"The old thief stuffed me under the bed, I fell down, and found a tunnel underneath, I quickly got up and wanted to run, trying to blow out the candle flame in the cave, but the old thief had already run down, and dragged me to a small room in the tunnel. ”

He saw that the eldest lady was lying there. It was still covered with a quilt. I shouted loudly, but no one answered. The old thief tore my clothes in front of the eldest lady and was beaten by him......"

"I struggled desperately, hoping that the eldest lady would wake up and save me. But it doesn't work. ”

"The old thief's face became hideous and hateful in the candlelight, and he tore my clothes, and when I tried to be indecent to him, I bit his arm fiercely, and grabbed the candlestick and smashed him on the head, and the old thief was wounded, and in a fit of rage, he snatched the candlestick, and smashed it at me, until the little woman was completely out of breath and unrecognizable. ”

"This hateful outsider!" Li Tianqi gritted his teeth with hatred after hearing this, and already understood why Xiaohong was unwilling to show him her face from beginning to end.

Xiaohong didn't speak again, but couldn't help crying again.

The candle flame in his hand was about to burn out, Li Tianqi stood up suddenly, and said to Xiaohong: "Xiaohong, stay here, I will get justice for you." ”

"Apocalypse ......" Xiaohong bowed to Li Tianqi and never got up again.

"I didn't expect you and I to be close to the end of the world, but we both have our own sufferings. ”

Li Tianqi turned around angrily and ran towards the end of the tunnel.
