The Ups and Downs of Mrs. Yipin

Chapter 129

"Don't move, I touched something!" Fang Xiuyi touched it carefully, "Great, it looks like a torch!"

A long handle with a tip that smells like pine oil.

"But, there is no fire!" Mrs. Niu said.

"It's okay, let's touch around here again, there is a torch, so we can't have a scythe, right?!" Mrs. Niu said this, and the fire of hope that Fang Xiuyi had just ignited suddenly turned into a small flame.

So, now it became three people groping on the steps, groping all the way down the steps from the top.

"I've got it!" Mrs. Qin shouted, the excitement in her voice was self-evident.

The others couldn't hide their excitement, and they all shouted.

"Hurry up, hurry up!" Fang Xiuyi felt that his hand holding the torch was trembling.

In the darkness, I heard the sound of Mrs. Qin lighting the fire sickle, again and again, without sparks, and the fire of everyone's hope was slowly extinguished again.

Finally, with a "poof", the fire sickle desperately exhaled its last breath, and Fang Xiuyi hurriedly brought the torch over.Immediately, the torches lit up.

"Ah, that's great! There's a fire!" Mrs. Lin cried and cried.

Everyone looked at it in the light of the fire, and they were all stunned.

Let’s talk about the people first, they are all disheveled, with disheveled hair, and they don’t even have a piece of jewelry. Then, the injured people are all crowded together, with painful expressions on their faces.Besides, this place, a small square of about forty square meters, has nothing but a few of them, let alone a door.

"Come on, those of us who can stand up, hurry up and see if there are torches or other things around." Fang Xiu saw that the torch didn't have a long life.

Several people actually found another torch and a wooden stick.

"Okay, I still have torches, so I can make do with it." Fang Xiu said to a few people sitting on the ground, "Try it first, see if you feel uncomfortable, and see if you can stand up."

Except for Mrs. Gu, the others all fell in the chaos just now and were crushed by others.Fortunately, Gu Qifang was not injured, just bumped slightly; Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Xie sprained their ankles; tone in.

"Madam Gu, let me see your legs."

Madam Gu lifted up her skirt, and when she was about to lift up her trousers, she grinned in pain.

"Don't uncover it, the pants are probably stuck to the bleeding." Fang Xiuyi looked closer with the torch again, and the blood on the pants had already congealed, "But it seems to be okay now, no more bleeding. For now How about this. Madam Gu, be careful yourself, don't let the wound touch other things. We'd better find the exit as soon as possible. Qifang, take good care of your mother."

"Ah."

"Everyone, although we have two torches now, we can't find a way out, so we can only light one and keep the other as a spare." Fang Xiuyi looked around, "This should be a basement, I don't know if any of you understand This one?"

"Why did Madam He say that? How can we know about the basement?" Madam Xie snorted coldly.

"Mrs. Xie, this is the end of the matter, why are you still aggressive?" Mrs. Qin said, "I think what Mrs. He means is, is there someone who can understand, is there any mechanism in this place!"

Fang Xiu nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, yes, that's what I mean, nothing else, please forgive me!"

Several people looked at each other in blank dismay, they were all rich and wealthy ladies, who knew this!

"I, I heard that someone built a basement, and there are organs for entering and exiting, some are at the bedside, and some are in the study room, but there is nothing here, is it, on the wall?" The more Mrs. Lin talked, the more uncertain she became. , and the sound becomes smaller.

"Since we don't understand, let's listen to Mrs. Lin and look for buttons on the wall." Fang Xiuyi said.

Several people who moved freely agreed repeatedly, and even Gu Qifang joined the team looking for the mechanism.

A few wounded people sat in the middle, holding torches, the light of which was just enough to illuminate the entire basement.Several other people took one end each, and touched them carefully one by one from the bottom to the top.

"Eh? This seems to be a door!" Just as the torch was about to go out, Fang Xiuyi noticed that there was a gap that was obviously wider and smoother than other places, as if it was often caused by someone touching it.

"Hurry up, hurry up, light up the fire!" Mrs. Niu said hurriedly.

Another torch was lit, and it didn't look like it would last long.

"where is it?"

"Look, it's here."

"Yeah, this seems to be a Taoist gate, and the position of the hand is very smooth. It should be here, but where is the mechanism?" Mrs. Qin also thought, "It must be nearby, let's look for it carefully."

Several people got down here and touched the walls side by side, but found nothing.

"Did we think wrong?" Fang Xiuyi was a little suspicious.

"Why don't we go to the steps and have a look. There are steps there, people must have come down from there." Mrs. Qin suggested.

Several people rushed to the steps quickly, and now they no longer care about their appearance, time is life.

The four people groped all over the upper steps, even the upper stone slabs that could be obtained, but they still found nothing.

"Woooooo...Are we going to die here?" Mrs. Lin cried in fear.

"Shut up!" Mrs. Xie said angrily.

"It's okay, so many of us have disappeared, and people outside must be trying their best to find us." Mrs. Gu comforted.

Fang Xiuyi was worried that in such a confined space, he did not know how long the oxygen would last.

"Mrs. Lin, I know you are very scared, we are all. But don't cry, the air here is not enough, we don't speak loudly, don't make violent movements." Fang Xiuyi was afraid that people outside hadn't found them yet. , they were already suffocated.

After hearing this, Mrs. Lin slowly stopped crying.

"Let's go to the bottom to find it!" Fang Xiu said to a few of them, "Since we are thrown here, such an obvious step may not work."

"That's right, if this place can be opened, there would be no point for us to be here." Mrs. Qin understood Fang Xiuyi's meaning.

The four went to the wall to look for the mechanism, but the wall was bare and there was nothing, let alone any mechanism.The light of the torches is getting dimmer, and everyone's hope is getting slimmer, and even a little desperate.

Fang Xiu pressed each brick once. She remembered that she had read novels before, and some mechanisms were a brick that could turn.But every brick is firmly attached to the wall, and none of them can move.She was a little weak, and I don't know how long it had been. She ate a few buns in the morning, and then drank a few sips of tea, but when she thought that these people might all be the same, she hinted that she was not hungry, so try harder Hold on for a while, maybe there will be rescuers coming the next moment.

"Ah, the fire is going out!" Mrs. Xie exclaimed.

"Okay, there is no other way. Let's all get together before the fire goes out. At least we can reduce some fear." Mrs. Qin said.

This is good, not only Mrs. Lin, but also Mrs. Xie began to cry.

Fang Xiuyi sighed helplessly, if they really died, there was nothing they could do, who made them so unlucky to meet a gang of thieves and even pretend to be a nun.

"Don't cry, be careful that others will see your last appearance, it's too ugly to see!" Madam Niu spoke, which made the two of them cry even louder.

At this moment, the torch was honorably retired, and returned to the darkness again. The crying stopped abruptly, and then suddenly turned into a high-pitched scream, which was an extremely terrifying scream.Fang Xiuyi was about to walk in the middle, so that everyone could get together, when he suddenly heard this voice, he panicked, tripped his foot, and fell straight to the ground.

The screaming stopped abruptly again, because there was a "呲呵" sound, and at the same time, light came in, and the light became bigger and bigger.

Fang Xiuyi lay on the ground and raised her head, just in time to see the terrified expressions of the people opposite, which were particularly obvious in the light.She turned her head and looked, also surprised.

I saw that the door they were groping for just now opened, and there was a corridor inside. The walls on both sides were decorated with exquisite wall lamps, and the lights flickered in silence.Looking from this side, there seemed to be rooms on both sides of the corridor.

"This, what is this place?" Mrs. Niu said to herself, and also expressed the doubts in everyone's mind.

Gu Qifang came over and helped Fang Xiuyi up, "Madam He, are you alright?"

Fang Xiuyi glanced at Gu Qifang gratefully, then shook her head, "It's okay, it's just that my hands got scratched."

"Shall we go in and have a look?" Mrs. Qin was talking, but she didn't move.I had been looking for the exit just now, but when the exit suddenly appeared, I didn't dare to leave.

"No matter where it is, it is our only way out!" Fang Xiuyi said.

Several people tiptoed in.

"Too bad, I forgot Mrs. Zhuo!" Mrs. Qin said.

Fang Xiu got scratched on one hand, Gu Qifang had to take care of Mrs. Gu, only Mrs. Qin and Mrs. Niu were left to grab Mrs. Zhuo's arm, and then dragged her into the corridor like that.

Fang Xiuyi walked in the front. When she took the first step into this corridor, it was as if she was taking an adventure, her heart was beating wildly, and she was very uneasy.

The floor of this corridor is covered with exquisite carpets, very soft, and there is no sound at all when walking. In addition, everyone is afraid to make a sound now, which makes people feel even more terrifying.The walls on both sides of the corridor are decorated with elegant wallpapers, and the lamp holders seem to be exquisitely crafted and expensive.

After walking a few steps, there was a room on the left, with a big crabapple flower carved on the door, which bloomed strangely in this place.

"There's a room here!" Fang Xiuyi quietly said to the people behind, "I'll see if I can open it first."

The people behind seemed to be frozen, and they didn't dare to move. Fang Xiu took a deep breath, held the doorknob, and pushed slowly and hard.
