Chapter 11 Ghostly Calling Often

Thinking it was a servant who got up early to do things, Shangguan Ruoli glanced out the window accidentally, and found that it was Chuntao coming out, looked around furtively, and then left Meixiangyuan.

Shangguan Ruoli's eyes were slightly cold, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he flipped his skirt out of the window.

I looked around and confirmed that no one was there. The three-meter-high courtyard wall did not need to run up. I jumped up lightly, kicked on the wall, and walked a few steps sideways. I stretched out my arms just to touch the top of the wall, and exerted force on my waist without making a sound. flipped out!
Outside the courtyard wall happened to be a magnolia tree with luxuriant branches and leaves. At this moment, the season of magnolia flowers in full bloom has passed, and the luxuriant crown of the tree is like a canopy, covering the shade under the tree.

After landing on the ground, she turned lightly on the soft grass and hid behind the tree. Looking around, she saw Chuntao's pale pink back.

She followed Chuntao from a distance by hiding in the flowers and trees.

Chuntao looked left and right, sneaky, and hurriedly came to the door of a large and respectable courtyard. The wooden plaque on it was engraved with Indus Courtyard.

Shangguan Ruoli knew that it was the yard where Xiao Yunqing lived, and turned into the yard before Chuntao knocked on the door. In the yard, clumps of winter jasmine were planted against the wall. Of course, the jasmine flowers will have withered now, and they are lush and fluffy. He blocked Shangguan Ruoli's figure.

So she hid in a concealed manner, and if she was a little careful, she would not be discovered by the people in the yard, but Chuntao's knock on the door alarmed the people in the yard, and it was not easy to get close to the house.

Shangguan Ruoli took advantage of the fact that there was only one servant coming out to open the door, and quickly identified the flowers and trees that could be used nearby, and then hid in the shadow of a rockery after a few twitches.

The original owner's hearing is very good, she vaguely heard Xiao Yunqing's voice scolding Chuntao, and then vaguely heard words such as Ranxianglou, man, and things.

Sensitively, Shangguan Ruoli felt that their calculations had something to do with him, so he wanted to change his position to hear it more clearly.

However, suddenly his feet were empty, and the whole person fell down.

She was taken aback, and instinctively reached out to grab something, only grabbed the slippery ground in the cave, and then fell down.

When she landed, she squatted down, and a roll relieved most of the force of falling from a high place.

Even so, because of the gravel under his feet, the fall was not light.

"Fuck me! I'm hurting my sister to death!" Cursing in a low voice, she looked up, as if she had fallen from the top of the underground dark room.

Seeing the glimmer of light above, it was three feet above the ground by visual inspection.

Someone pushed the door and walked towards the rockery, as if to check.

"What's going on?" A maid's voice sounded searching.

Another servant girl said: "It should be a wild cat that gets up early to prey."

The two stopped by the rockery and looked around vigilantly, but the place where Shangguan Ruoli fell was very secret, and the entrance of the cave was blocked by rocks, so they didn't find anything.

"Get out of here, there are often ghosts around here!"

"What the hell, don't talk nonsense early in the morning!"

The two servant girls who were investigating the situation left in a hurry with fear in their voices.

Shangguan Ruoli guessed from the rubble under his feet that the dark room was built under a rockery, and due to rain leakage, it weathered into a hole over time.

And she just happened to be so unlucky, so she stepped on the air and fell down.

It was so high, and the hole was in the middle of the dark room, it was impossible for her to go back the same way.

Looking around, it is an airtight dark room, the surrounding stone walls are solid and smooth, and there are stone beds in the corners of the dark room.

This is a dark prison, there must be an exit.

Shangguan Ruoli rubbed his back pained by the stone, picked up a stone, groped on the stone wall, and tapped it lightly from time to time.

Suddenly, her tapping stopped.

The back of the stone wall here is empty, and there is a faint sound coming from it.

Shangguan Ruoli put his ear against the stone wall and listened carefully, it sounded like the rattling of iron chains.

Someone is locked next door!

Since the next door is also a dark prison, the exit must not be on this stone wall. Shangguan Ruoli ruled out this stone wall and searched carefully on the other three stone walls.

I finally found a different stone brick and pressed it hard.

Immediately, there was a "click" sound from the hinges that drove the mechanism to open. The sound was very dry, which showed that the darkroom hadn't been opened for many years.

Shangguan Ruoli stuck behind the stone gate, listened for a while, and made sure there was no danger outside, and then left the dark room.

It was pitch black outside, and Shangguan Ruoli took a while to get used to it before he could see the situation outside clearly through the dim light cast from the hole on the top of the darkroom.

Outside is a one-meter-wide corridor with stone walls on both sides, dark and damp, with mice scurrying past from time to time.

Shangguan Ruoli stepped up to the stone gate next door, listened to the movement inside, and frowned slightly.

There was no sound inside, could it be that she heard it wrong just now?

According to the grievance of the Shimen mechanism just now, she quickly touched the mechanism, pressed it, turned around and pressed her body against the stone wall to prevent danger.

There is a faint yellow light coming out of the stone gate, which gradually widens as the stone gate slowly opens.

Sure enough, there were people inside!

A foul smell and damp musty smell rushed out from the door, making Shangguan Ruoli frown and hold his breath.

"Little girl, come and talk to me!" An old and dry voice came from the room, rough and unpleasant, as if it came from hell, making people's scalp numb.

Presumably the ghostly screams in the mouths of the two maids should be this voice,
How did he know she was a little girl?

Shangguan Ruoli stretched out his leg to test it first, and then poked out his head slightly.

In the middle of the dark room, there was an old man who couldn't see anything. His wrists and ankles were tied with iron chains as thick as a child's arm. The ends of the chains were fixed on the stone wall.

The reason why he is called an old man is that except for his voice, his beard and hair are messy and messy, dirty and colorless, but it is not black.

Seeing that there was no danger, Shangguan Ruoli walked out from behind the stone gate, walked into the dark room and stood still where he couldn't reach, and asked calmly, "Who are you? Why are you here?"

The old man saw her appearance clearly, stood there blankly, opened his mouth in disbelief, and after a long while, he tentatively called out: "Ah...Luo?"

Ah Luo?Guo Ruoli frowned, the original owner's mother Xiao Yunluo?

Before Shangguan Ruoli could speak, the old man shook his head in denial, "No, no! That bitch Xiao Yunqing is already old, why is my A Luo so young?"

He raised his hand and pushed aside the broken hair hanging on his forehead, revealing a pair of clear and sharp eyes, and carefully looked Shangguan Ruoli up and down, "Aren't you A Luo, are you Li'er? No, Li'er has grown so big ?"

The old man looked at Shangguan Ruoli vigilantly, "Li'er is blind, but your eyes are fine."

The old man seemed to have been isolated from the world for a long time, and he didn't even know that Xiao Yunluo had passed away.

Shangguan Ruoli heard some clues from his words, and said calmly: "Xiao Yunluo has passed away for more than 15 years."
