I am cultivating immortality in the Red Mansion

The three of them walked around and arrived at a remote part of the mansion.There were many rocks there, and several ditches were dug beside them.It was obvious that he was planning to do some decoration and renovation, but he stopped halfway for some reason.

Qinghong said: "The prince originally planned to open up this place and build a small garden with rockeries and running water. He said it was convenient for young masters and girls to come and play. Who knew that the prince suddenly changed his mind and left this place alone all day long? He went out to play. There was no one to take over here, so he put it on hold. None of the masters in the mansion were interested in taking over his hand to continue the work, and it gradually fell into disuse. "

Jia He nodded.

Since it was something Hong Wenchang was eager to do, after he misbehaved, his relatives were sad and naturally did not want to touch the plan he had made when he was still good.Where the masters don't care, the servants will certainly ignore it.

However, precisely because no one is willing to come to this place, it might be targeted by gangsters and used for other purposes.

Jia He then said: "Since it is the place that the prince plans to renovate, why don't we take a look around it. After all, it is also a place that the prince valued at the beginning, and it must have its outstanding features."

Qinghong responded obediently, and Zheng Tiezhu's family listened to Jia He, and the two of them followed her around.

Jia Heo stared at the place where the Medicine Gu King had left his mark, and first took them to walk around for a while, and then pointed to the big rockery as if he suddenly understood: "It's quite interesting to look over there. Such a big rockery, I don’t know where it came from, but it is so tall and interesting." He said and walked over first.

The two of them followed her.

Jia He stopped in front of the huge rockery and observed it carefully for a moment. During this period, he sent insects to explore the way.When they returned, she pointed to the crack on the side of the rockery and said, "I look a little strange here. Why is there such a big crack in the rock, but the prince still took it out? Or maybe, the thing was placed there After this, it was damaged by others, so it cracked?"

Qinghong shook her head and said she didn't know.

But Zheng Tiezhu's family suddenly realized: "Could it be for hide and seek?"

Jia He asked curiously: "What kind of hide-and-seek?"

"The girl knows that I do menial work and often clean the courtyard, so I often see the prince playing hide-and-seek with the young master and the girl." Zheng Tiezhu's family member said: "I once heard the prince mentioned that we can do something novel and interesting in the future. His hide-and-seek hiding place to ensure that they can’t find him. The girl said she didn’t believe it, so the prince told her to wait and see.”

Mentioning the past, the tone of Zheng Tiezhu's family sounded a bit desolate: "The relationship between the prince and his family was so good at that time. But now...sigh."

However, Jia He felt that her idea was quite correct and praised: "You can think of this because you are careful in your work." Moreover, you also care about your master's family, otherwise you would not notice some details of the masters' play.

With what Zheng Tiezhu's family said, it becomes more logical to try to open this place.Jia He asked Qinghong and Zheng Tiezhu to see if they could move the rock sideways along the crack.

The two of them worked together, but they couldn't move an inch.

Jia He asked the insects to explore again. After a while, there was news. She pointed to a cylindrical stone inserted into the side of the rockery and said, "Let's try to twist it and see."

Qinghong volunteered to go over and turn it.Zheng Tiezhu's family continued to try to open along the cracks.After a while, the cooperation between the two paid off. As Qinghong just screwed the columnar stone to a certain position, a gap was slowly opened on the side of the rockery.Then the two of them didn't have to work too hard to pull it out, and the stone door suddenly opened.

The sunlight shone a little way inside the stone door, and the three of them subconsciously looked at the pillar-shaped stone inserted next to the stone door.It turns out that it is connected to the inside.By turning it in this way, as long as it reaches a certain position, whether it is inside or outside, the side door of the rockery can be opened.

I think Hong Wenchang built this place with the intention of making it a hiding place to catch the children by surprise when they were playing with them.

It was extremely dark inside Shimen, and there was a strong smell.The space is not large, but ordinary people's eyes cannot adapt to the darkness inside and cannot see clearly.Qinghong had the joy of exploring a new place and the courage to defend her master. She felt that the smell was unpleasant, so she rushed in and shouted, "I don't know if the digging has been done here. I'll go into this dark place first to see what's going on." What a scene."

Jia He had good eyesight, raised his eyes and saw what was going on inside, and hurriedly shouted "Wait a minute".

But it was too late.

Qinghong hit something and fell to the ground with an "ouch".Smelling the peculiar smell that came from the cold and soft thing she bumped into, she subconsciously screamed: "Ghost!" and fainted.

Zheng Tiezhu's family was frightened and hurriedly dragged Jia He back.

Jia He did not retreat but advanced: "I want to go over and have a look." He said and took away Zheng Tiezhu's hand.

Although Zheng Tiezhu's family was extremely frightened, they adhered to the principle of protecting their master and stretched out their hands to protect Jia He behind them: "Wait a minute, miss, I'll go over and see first before talking."

Having said that, she kept her eyes closed as she moved forward, not daring to take a closer look inside.

Jia He patted her, pointed at the black shadow and said, "Where do you see a ghost? It's just a tied up person."

Zheng Tiezhu's eyes were used to such darkness. He half-squinted his eyes nervously and saw a sitting figure stuffed inside.

It's just that the man had something stuffed in his mouth and his hands were tied behind his back. His hair and clothes were messy, and his whole body reeked of a lingering stench. He was listless and his head was drooping, as if he wasn't quite awake.Therefore, when Qinghong came in just now, she hit someone with her head, and the person was in pain and couldn't scream.

Zheng Tiezhu's family looked at the person carefully for a long time, then suddenly slapped his thigh and said in surprise: "My mother! Why does she look like a grandma?"

Jia He's eyes were as dark as night: "It's her."

Zheng Tiezhu's family wondered: "Just now, the eldest grandma was lying in the house to rest. Just now when we walked here, she ran here and tied herself up?" He looked up and down: " But even if grandma wants to play hide and seek, the young master and the girl are not at home now."

Jia He said: "Don't worry about this for now. Wake up Qing Hong. I have something to tell you."

At dinner time that afternoon, the officials of Jingzhao Mansion, Lao Wuzuo, and the Marquis of Jinxiang and his wife said goodbye.The Marquis ordered people to send them out of the house, and then returned to the study.

Everything seems to be no different from usual.

into the night.

In Cui's courtyard.

Someone walked softly against the wall, knocked lightly on the door, and ran into the house in a panic.After the door was closed, she said to the two people inside with a panicked look: "Sorry, I just went to deliver the food and found that the grandma was not there. What should I do?"
