Forbidden City

Chapter 31 Open the skylight and speak eloquently

Ling Ziyao's eyes were firm, and every word she uttered was like a knife, cutting fiercely in my heart.My heart ached for no reason, it was the kind of pain laced with sadness, feeling that I was sorry for Ling Ziyao, that I had let her down, that I had let her down... I don't know why I suddenly felt this way.

But Mu Yi was indifferent, and still said coldly: "If you continue to be obsessed, I can only apologize." After she finished speaking, she stretched out her hand, and there was a yellow talisman on the palm of her hand. When Ling Ziyao saw the yellow talisman, Frightened, he subconsciously took two steps back.I knew very well that if Mu Yi's talisman hit Ling Ziyao, Ling Ziyao would most likely be knocked out of her wits. At this moment, I was so upset that I hurriedly jumped in front of Mu Yi to block her and said, "Let her go."

Mu Yi pushed me away, and the amulet held onto Ling Ziyao's body.At the very moment, a person suddenly jumped in from the cave, holding a two-meter-long thin wooden stick, and the wooden stick was lifted towards Mu Yi's hand like a snake, and Mu Yi was startled, and hurriedly withdrew his hand.But the man didn't continue to attack Mu Yi, but grabbed Ling Ziyao's hand, jumped out of the cave, and disappeared into the vast night in a blink of an eye.

We were dumbfounded, it all happened so fast, it was just a blink of an eye.Lu Fayi was the first to react, and rushed out of the cave to catch up.Mu Yi also took back the talisman, and followed closely.I also came back to my senses immediately, and was about to follow, but was stopped by my second uncle, who asked, "Why are you going?" I said that Ziyao had been snatched away, and I was going to chase her.The second uncle scolded: "Chasing a bitch! Did you see who that was just now?" I said it seemed to be Ling.The second uncle nodded and said, "Yes, that person just now was surnamed Ling. Why did he snatch your female ghost away? It seems that I guessed right, they really belong to the same group."

"A group?" I was stunned.

"Yes." The second uncle said with certainty: "Didn't Miss Muyi want to take your female ghost away just now? The one surnamed Ling rescued the female ghost. If they were not in the same group, why did the one surnamed Ling rescue you?" she?"

I was speechless for a while, what my second uncle said made sense, the reason why Ling Zhi rescued Ling Ziyao was because he didn't want her to be broken by Mu Yi.

"Obviously, your female ghost's claim that she wants to borrow a coffin to have a child is false, but it is true that she wants to get rid of this coffin. Now that they are all gone, it is not too late, let's get rid of this coffin as soon as possible," said the second uncle. I went to push the scooter outside the cave, but when I reached the entrance of the cave, I stopped again, staring blankly at the outside of the cave.I looked out of the cave and saw Mu Yi and Lu Fayi walking in one after the other.I quickly went up to him and asked, "Have you caught them?" Mu Yi shook his head, then looked at Second Uncle and asked, "Are you going to take this coffin away?"

"Yes," the second uncle replied, "this coffin was discovered by the surname Ling, so it can no longer be placed here."

Mu Yi asked: "Then where do you plan to put it?"

The second uncle thought for a while and said: "I haven't thought about it yet, but I absolutely can't put it here anymore. I think it's better to let it go to my house first, and it will be shipped to the city tomorrow and handed over to the state."

"Really? Are you out of your mind this time?" Mu Yi sneered.

The second uncle was dumbfounded for a moment.I was also embarrassed.Obviously, what my second uncle and I said in the cave earlier was overheard by Mu Yi and Doctor Lu.The second uncle also understood, Chong Muyi and Dr. Lufa shouted angrily: "You... have been eavesdropping on us outside the cave?" Mu Yi corrected: "It's not eavesdropping, it's been investigating."

Now that it had been exposed, the second uncle simply turned his face away, and said unceremoniously: "You are right, this time I am out of my mind, so I will just say that this coffin belongs to our Yu family. Treasure, as descendants of the Yu family, we must protect this treasure left by our ancestors, otherwise, we will be sorry to our ancestors!"

Mu Yi said coldly: "I think you made a mistake. This amber coffin actually does not belong to your Yu family. If my guess is correct, this amber coffin should belong to the Ling family."

"What?" My second uncle and I were taken aback at the same time. The second uncle snorted coldly, stared at Mu Yi and asked, "You don't belong with Ling, do you?" Mu Yi snorted and put his hand on the amber The coffin said: "Whatever you think, in a word, I want to remind you, this coffin, you either destroy it, or give it to the country, or you put it in a place unknown to the world, Otherwise, all of you in the Yu family may become extinct."

"You—" Second Uncle was furious, and shouted at Muyi: "You are talking nonsense!"

After hearing Mu Yi's words, I also felt that what she said was too serious and mysterious, I didn't even believe it, let alone my second uncle?I tried to be as gentle as possible and said to Mu Yi: "You want us to hand over this coffin to the country, so just say it, why make fun of our Yu family?"

"Believe it or not." Mu Yi said: "Anyway, I have already warned you. After I investigate this matter thoroughly, I will leave, and I don't want to interfere with your affairs. Whether you are a blessing or a curse, It depends on your own good luck." After she finished speaking, she glanced at Doctor Lu and said, "Let's go."

Physician Lu Fa hesitated a little, glanced at the amber coffin and said, "I don't think this coffin can be placed here, it's a big deal..."

Mu Yi interrupted him, and said expressionlessly: "This is other people's business, why should we meddle in it? Let them make their own decisions." She walked out after finishing speaking.Lu Fayi said to my second uncle and me: "What Mu Yi said is true, and it is very important, you should think about it carefully."

After both Lu Fayi and Mu Yi left, I remembered that ever since I knew Mu Yi and Lu Fayi, I felt that they were upright people, not like treacherous and evil people. What about the family?Otherwise, it wouldn't have been buried under our Yu family's land forever, so he said to Second Uncle, "Second Uncle, what Mu Yi and Lu Fayi said makes sense..."

"Don't listen to their nonsense!" The second uncle interrupted me, and said rudely: "You will believe them once they sing together? Let me tell you, this matter will not scare your second uncle and me." Then he waved his hand, " Stop talking nonsense, now that the matter is clear, let's stop covering it up, let's go, get this coffin back home!"

Bringing the coffin home always feels weird to me.

So, under the order of the second uncle, we pushed the coffin back with a cart and put it in the second uncle's house. When we finished all this, it was already dawn.After working all night, I was sleepy and tired, but the second uncle was very excited. He found a new towel and wiped the amber coffin all over. Then he asked me to cook. He moved a stool and sat next to the coffin Smoking and looking at the coffin.

I feel, is the second uncle insane?

After eating, I told Uncle Er that I was tired and had to go back to rest. Uncle waved at me, and as soon as I walked out the door, he immediately closed the door from the inside, for fear that someone would break in and snatch the coffin .I sighed helplessly and walked quickly towards my home.

After opening the door, I couldn't wait to walk towards the bedroom, but when I got inside, I was disappointed, the bed was empty.

At first I really hoped to see Ling Ziyao on the bed, but the reality is cruel, she didn't come back.She was taken away by Ling Zhi, will Ling Zhi hurt her?At this time, I hope that they are in the same group, so that Ling Ziyao and Ling Zhi will be fine together.

I was lying on the bed, recalling my acquaintance with Ling Ziyao and what happened in the past few days, scenes flashed in my mind like a dream.Suddenly I thought again, last night Ling Ziyao said that she was going to have a baby, now it's daytime, has she already given birth?What will the baby be like?The baby's clothes are still here, will she come to me to get the clothes?
Thinking about this, I couldn't fall asleep anymore, so I simply got up from the bed, and suddenly heard the sound of setting off firecrackers outside the window, followed by a burst of suona, and not long after, I heard Uncle Zhou knocking on the opposite side. Second Uncle knocked on the door and shouted: "Erqiao, open the door quickly! Erqiao!" I hurriedly opened the door and walked over to ask Uncle Zhou what happened. Uncle Zhou said, "We plan to bury Wu Banxian today." , need a few people to carry the coffin, now the people in the village are old and weak, you and your second uncle have to help carry the coffin."

With a sound of "squeak", the door opened, and the second uncle appeared at the door with dull eyes, and said weakly, "I...is sick, and I have no strength to lift it. Call...call Feng Feng to go."
