Chapter 342 The Mystery of Wanjin Village

"Are you talking about how you died?" Qi Yuxuan scolded angrily, not believing in evil, and knocking on the door with all his strength.

However, the wooden door did not move at all.

Sheng Xi looked at the brass lock on the door with admiration
Really awesome little cleats, take it out.

Qi Yuxuan tried several times but failed to open the door, so he snapped: "Open the door! Otherwise, I'll kill you all!"

Sheng Xi was not afraid of him: "Officer groom, don't struggle. If you could open the door by yourself, you would have killed us long ago last night."

Qi Yuxuan was silent for a moment.

Last night, Sheng Xi and Yuan Xian slept soundly under the influence of the rules, but he knocked on the door all night.

It wasn't until dawn that he knew that the two were about to wake up, and he tried to ambush them when they opened the door, and then he stopped banging on the door.

Now being exposed by Sheng Xi, Qi Yuxuan became furious: "That's because I don't want to kill you all! Don't forget, Yan Qian is still inside! She kills anyone she sees!"

Sheng Xi turned around and asked the bride: "Will you still kill us now?"

The bride named Yan Qian shook her head slowly, her neck turned and made a "click" sound, as if it would break at any moment.

"Then why did you attack us suddenly?" Yuan Xian asked.

The bride couldn't speak, and stood there silent.

Only the toes of her feet occupy the ground, and her upright body is weird.

It doesn't look like it's standing on its own, but it looks like it's being hoisted by invisible silk threads.

"The wedding room is safe for you, but if there are outsiders present, it's not so safe, is it?" Sheng Xi asked.

The bride nods.

Last night, including when Qi Yuxuan appeared just now, although the bride did something to them, she didn't just want to tear them apart, but just wanted to throw them out of the wedding room.

Even though this may be due to the restriction of the "marriage room is very safe" rule, there may be other reasons.

If the bride wants to kill them, she can do it as soon as she enters the wedding room last night.

But she didn't attack suddenly until Qi Yuxuan got close to the Yan Mansion.

From this point, Sheng Xi deduced that the bride's two strikes might not have intended to kill them, but had another purpose.

In the truth revealed by the butler after being beaten, some of his rules and restrictions were mentioned, which were different from the rules that Sheng Xi and the others had to abide by.

Based on this, it can be determined that in Markham Village, different people need to abide by different rules.

Some of these rules are similar, while others are completely different.

Among the bride's rules, there should be a rule similar to "the wedding room is safe, but if outsiders are present, Qi Yuxuan can enter the wedding room and take her out".

The bride is not Qi Yuxuan's opponent, once she leaves the wedding room, she will be killed by Qi Yuxuan.

This item should have been deliberately added by Qi Yuxuan and others in order to prevent the bride from finding a helper.

Sheng Xi expressed his guess.

The bride nods that she is correct.

Qi Yuxuan gritted his teeth outside the door: "I warn you two not to believe her, this woman is full of lies! She can only lie!"

Yuan Xian said indifferently: "She can't speak now."

Qi Yuxuan was stuck, unable to refute this point, he could only change the subject: "I know her rules, one of which is to kill all outsiders!"

"How do we know you're not lying?" Sheng Xi asked.

Qi Yuxuan sneered: "I wrote your rules, why should I lie to you?"

"If you don't believe me, I'll recite a few for you."

"First, Wanjinzhuang has no spiritual power..."

"Rule [-]... When you see the bride, run away immediately..."

"No. 13..."

"No. 14..."

Sheng Xi didn't interrupt him until Qi Yuxuan finished speaking, she raised her lips and asked, "Then what is the seventh thing?"

Qi Yuxuan outside the door was quiet for a moment, and said angrily: "There are so many rules, should I memorize them all for you? Do I have that much free time?"

Sheng Xi felt that he was very idle: "Everyone is trapped in Wanjinzhuang, isn't the most important thing is time?"

"Idle is also idle, memorizing the rules will help prevent Alzheimer's disease."

"Let me start with you, 'Article [-], after midnight, no matter what you hear in the guest house of the Yan Mansion...', what's behind it?"

Qi Yuxuan thought for a moment, then said confidently: "The door cannot be opened."

"Complete."

"You can't open the window or the door." Qi Yuxuan added angrily, "What is there to ask?"

"You didn't say it completely. Behind the 'cannot open the window or the door', there is still content." Sheng Xi said.

Qi Yuxuan frowned.

He thought for a while, and felt that this girl's cunning must be defrauding him.

Qi Yuxuan said firmly: "You don't have to fool me, this rule is just like that. There is nothing behind it!"

At this time, the bride standing in the house raised her hand and pointed to the marriage bed in the inner room.

Although she didn't say a word, she gave the answer.

[Article [-]: After midnight, no matter what you hear in the guest house of Yanfu, you can’t open the door or window.Please rest well. 】

Qi Yuxuan failed to say the rule of "please have a good rest".

From the first time Sheng Xi saw this rule, he felt a faint sense of disobedience.

Later, she noticed that the bride, the housekeeper, and the groom had an antagonistic relationship, and that the groom seemed to be involved in the wedding, so she guessed that there were many forces in Wanjinzhuang.

At that time, Sheng Xi thought, could the rules she got be customized by several forces?

After having this idea, Sheng Xi recited the rules several times and checked with Yuan Xian whether they were word for word.

So, she made another discovery.

——In the rules that she and Yuan Xian got, there are several rules with different language habits.

For example, Article 12, Article [-], and Article No. [-], when giving them tips to avoid danger, they all politely used the word "please".

But the fourth article does not have the word "please".

Both Article [-] and Article [-] have assumptions, but one says "if" and the other says "if".

As a social animal whose writing materials have been squeezed by the leaders for a long time, Sheng Xi is very sensitive to such things, especially paying attention to the consistency of the format before and after the writing.

The writing language habits are different, which only made Sheng Xi suspicious.

It wasn't until she confirmed that Qi Yuxuan didn't know the rule of "please rest well", but the bride did, that she confirmed her guess.

"The mystery of Wanjinzhuang should be related to both of you, as well as the butler and the groom. The cause is the secret treasure that the butler wanted to steal."

"For this secret treasure, the housekeeper hid his identity and sneaked into Yan's house. He tried to steal the secret treasure when the eldest lady Yan Qian got married."

"Miss Yan Qian wants to escape from marriage." Having said this, Sheng Xi took a special look at the bride.

Seeing that she didn't respond, Sheng Xi continued.

"Yan Qian may have an affair with the groom and wants to escape marriage and elope with him."

"It may also be that the eldest lady is simply dissatisfied with the marriage arranged by her parents, and wants to take a servant out to see the world."

"So, on the day of the wedding, when everyone was so busy with this matter, Yan Qian, as the bride, made an appointment with the groom to meet her at the corner gate and take her out of Yan's mansion."

The bride is still unresponsive.

Qi Yuxuan sneered: "Now you know how hateful this woman is? She has been having an affair with that groom for a long time! How could I want such a woman!"

Sheng Xi signaled him to be calm: "I haven't finished yet."

"What else is there to say!"

Sheng Xi: "The groom was specially sent by you."

Yuan Xian was stunned, he didn't expect such a person to exist.
