Chapter 0033: Murong Mansion has a hidden mystery
After Lu Chengji, the governor of Changzhou, brought back Murong Chujing's body, he pasted it on the gate of Murong Mansion with a state seal. [Ran^Text^Library] []
Indeed, Xiong Hao and Ding Dan seized the opportunity to come to Murong Mansion again.
Xiong Hao lit the candle in the hall, "Someone." Xiong Hao suddenly reminded Ding Dan softly by the shoulder.
"How do you know?"
"You look at the candle lighting on the wall of the hall. ”
A tiny jittering spot between the two was reflected on the wall of the hall, meaning that someone else was hiding outside the hall door to watch them.
When Ding Dan was still thinking about countermeasures, he was held by a big hand, and the whole person fell into Xiong Yan's arms, which scared Ding Dan a lot. Xiong Yan took out a dart from his bosom and swished through the right side of the sari...... The door and window paper was torn, and he quickly let go of his hand and chased out.
The masked man escaped over the wall, and Xiong Hao stopped and returned to the hall. "Dan'er, did you hurt you just now?"
"It's okay, by the way, what about the masked man?"
"I ran away, the man did it lightly, it was difficult to catch up, and I was worried about your safety, so I came back. ”
"Oh fool, although I am already a mortal, but with my martial arts, ordinary people still can't help me. ”
"If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what if. ”
Xiong Hao's words made her feel the warmth emanating from the bottom of her heart, like a mountain worthy of reliance. She didn't think about it anymore and changed the subject: "What is he spying on us for?"
"I don't know, but ** is not far from ten, and it has nothing to do with the secret of Murong Mansion and the death of Murong Chujing. ”
"Well, what should we do next?shall we continue the search or go back to the inn?"
"Hehe, neither continue to investigate the case nor return to the inn. ”
Xiong Hao's calm and natural smile was full of faces, and Dan'er was puzzled and asked, "What does this mean?"
"This is our home. ”
"Nonsense, what is our home, I don't have a home with you. Dan'er puffed out her lips angrily and rolled her eyes at him.
A righteous Xiong Yan suddenly became more lively, and next to Dan'er's arm apologized: "Okay, Dan'er, I said the wrong thing, Xiaosheng is rude, Miss, you don't remember the villain, spare me." ”
The first time I saw Xiong Hao so honest and playful, I couldn't help but laugh and couldn't close my mouth.
"Hmph, not a good one. ”
"Alright, good Dan'er. I mean we won't go back to the inn tonight, we'll just stay in the hall for the night, doing nothing, so as to disturb his sight, and even if he comes back, he will have no choice but to return empty-handed. Then we'll come back in a few days. He will be very alert when he sees us, he will definitely come to inquire these days, and he will try to stop us from investigating the case, so we have to investigate the case at an unexpected time. ”
"If you're smart, then listen to you, and stay here tonight. ”
"Thank you, Dan'er, for making you grieved for one night. ”
Xiong Yan's care for her all the time made Dan'er's love for him gradually deepen. Closing the hall door, Xiong Hao took off his coat to use as a quilt for her, and sat in a cold corner waiting for her.
"Squeak...... The continuous sound of "squeaking" caught Xiong's attention, and at the same time, it also woke up Dan'er, who was about to fall asleep.
"What's the sound?" Xiong Hao searched around, but there was no suspicious sign.
After a pause, Xiong Hao returned to the corner and sat down, "squeak...... The creaking sound sounded again, and Xiong Yan couldn't bear it anymore, so he couldn't find it
The source of the sound is impossib. Dan'er also lost her sleepiness and accompanied him to look around.
But as soon as they went out, there was no sound.
"Why is it that the sound comes out when we are about to rest very quietly, could it be coming from the hall?" Xiong Hao guessed.
"It didn't seem to be a human voice, it was the sound of a door moving. Dan'er recalled.
Thinking in the same direction, I immediately came up with the same answer: "There is a secret room!"
The two of them immediately went to the hall to look for the secret room, and the sound just now should be the sound of them stepping on the secret room mechanism. Sure enough, Xiong Hao found the hollow floor in the corner where he had just squatted and sitting, and pressed on the strange dragon map with seal carvings on the floor, the mechanism opened, and the door of the deep underground secret room appeared.
Entering the secret room with a torch, the scene in front of you is breathtaking, it is full of rare treasures, such as the snow lotus of the Tianshan Mountains, the thousand-year-old ginseng of the North Peak, the crystal copper of the Zhou Dynasty, the blue gold treasure turtle, and a blood-colored coral...... It is full of treasures in the world, and it is beautiful. "What the hell is this Murong Mansion for? Why does a martial arts family have so many world-renowned treasures, and the palace is also relatively embarrassed. Xiong Hao sighed.
"It's so beautiful, I've only seen this coral once, and I never thought I'd see it in the world. Ding Dan was full of praise for it.
"What's the name of this coral, and where have you seen it?"
"Blood plum coral. I have seen it from the Earth Dao Fu Immortal, and I heard that it was grown on a red tree, but it takes five thousand years for each tree to grow, and there are only two so far, I don't know why Murong Mansion has this thing? It is impossible for the Earth Dao Fu Immortal to give this peerless rarity to mortals, not to mention that even the Emperor of Heaven is reluctant to give it away. ”
"Dan'er, are you sure this is the Blood Plum Coral you've ever seen?"
"Well, I'm sure, this is the Blood Plum Coral. ”
"It seems that Murong Chujing's death is far from being as simple as we imagined, and the treasures here alone are enough to show that the secret hidden in Murong Mansion is definitely a sensation throughout the rivers and lakes. That's what the people who follow us should be for. I suddenly felt that this was very similar to Kong Jian Villa. ”
"What do you mean?"
"The murderers are all for the treasures of the master's family, but they have not succeeded, even if they kill the master, plus the scratches, it can now be concluded that the same murderer did it. The purpose of getting the Blood Gang Sword is to unify the martial arts, what is the purpose of getting these treasures? Do the rich merchants in the world dare to buy it, who doesn't know that these things will be killed as soon as they appear in the world, you see these things are engraved with the mark of Murong Mansion. ”
"In addition to Murong Chujing being a martial arts descendant, what other identity does he have in the rivers and lakes?"
Xiong Yan didn't know about Ding Dan's question, but both of them were sure that there must be some mystery hidden in Murong Mansion.
"Dan'er, let's go back to the hall and leave the secret room, this place is not suitable for a long time, once it is discovered by the enemy in the shadows, it will be a big deal. ”
"Hmm. ”
Xiong Yan left the secret room with a torch and Dan'er, closing the secret room mechanism.
"Dan'er, you sleep. Xiong Hao leaned against a different corner.
"You too, don't be too tired, go to bed early. Ding Dan waved at him and smiled slightly.
Looking at her sweet smile, her hands on her waist, under the protection of a man worthy of her trust, she slept quietly, I don't know how long it took for Xiong Yan's embarrassed eyes to reluctantly leave her side......
Early in the morning, Xiong Hao and Ding Dan left Murong Mansion and returned to the inn, they didn't know that the Central Plains Martial Arts was facing a bloody assassination plan, and Murong Chujing's death was really part of this plan.
