The rebirth of the first daughter of the poisonous concubine

Chapter 141 Visiting Huaiquan Temple

Su Ruiran pondered for a moment, the things here are complicated, and it's useless to think about it by herself.So if I want to find out now, I have to ask the only person who heard the voice at that time. Although at that time, she may not be able to clearly distinguish the difference in the voice, but there is such a possibility , I have to ask first anyway.

Thinking of this, she immediately ordered Yin He to bring the servant back again.

Yin He immediately went as ordered, but it took nearly half an hour to go, and it was Su Ruiran who asked her to ask her to come back immediately.

Although she already realized that something might have happened, Su Ruiran was still taken aback when she heard Yin He personally report it to her. She only heard Yin He say: "Miss is not well, that servant is gone."

When Yin He said this, there was still a terrified look on his face, and there were also tiny beads of sweat on his forehead. It was obvious that he came back in a hurry and ran all the way.

"How could this be? How could two good people just disappear out of thin air?" Su Ruiran frowned. The moment she heard Yin He's words, she contacted her and hadn't returned for so long, so she knew what Yin He said. It must have been the result of some searching.

However, at this moment, Yin He took out a mask from his sleeve. The moment Su Ruiran saw the mask, the surprise on Su Ruiran's face instantly froze. She just stared at the mask intently, and her expression began to change. Little by little it gets complicated.

The icy grimace on the mask, and the ferocious fangs revealing the chill, aren't they the ones worn by the ghost-faced man whose identity has always been unknown to her?
Su Ruiran suddenly grabbed the mask from her hand, and asked in surprise, "Where did this come from?"

"The servant found it in that girl's room." Yin He could emphasize, "The servant did not see this thing when he sent her back at first."

In other words, it happened after Yin He left, and the ghost-masked man was actually in his house!
Su Ruiran was very surprised, but after thinking about it, she immediately calmed down. Since the ghost-masked man was the one who was "stabbed", it's not surprising that he came with Nangong Ling.It's just... Su Ruiran lowered her head, and her eyes fell on the mask in her hand again. Why did he do this?Is it just because he realized that the girl saw him?Discovered your own secret?

"Miss, what should we do now?" Yin He watched her face, capturing her expression.

Su Ruiran pondered for a while, and finally put the mask in her hand on the table slowly, and said to Yin He: "You continue to send people to search the house, remember not to attract attention."

"Yes." Yin He complied, and suddenly saw that her expression was not right, and couldn't help asking, "Then what about Miss?"

"Since the spearheads of this matter all point to one place, then I should also go and have a look."

Yin He quickly understood, showing surprise on his face, and immediately wanted to stop him: "Miss wants to go to Huaiquan Temple alone? No, it's too dangerous."

"This is the only way." Su Ruiran's tone was firm, and she turned her head to look at Yin He, knowing that she was worried about herself, so she comforted her, "Don't worry, I will definitely go and come back quickly, and be careful in everything. "

Although I know the temperament of the young lady, once the decision is made, it will not be changed easily.But thinking of the danger of this matter, Yin He couldn't help persuading her again and again, but in the end she couldn't let the young lady waver, but she had no choice but to give up.

Handing over all the affairs in the mansion to Yin He, she secretly changed into her servant's clothes, and others only regarded her as a nap.

She sneaked out of the mansion like this, and before leaving, Yin He told her that if she didn't come back after two hours, Yin He would bring someone to look for her.This also means that this matter is likely to leak out.

From Xiangfu to Huaiquan Temple on West Street, it only takes half an hour to walk back and forth, so if there is no accident, the time is still quite sufficient for her.

Su Ruiran wore the servant's clothes, and tied her hair high on the top of her head with an ordinary wooden hairpin, pretending to be an ordinary man.Along the way, she deliberately avoided the mainland, and in addition to the constant traffic on the streets during the day, she was so inconspicuous that she didn't attract attention at all.

She had only heard about Huaiquan Temple and had never actually been there, so she only knew where to go by asking along the way.

It's just that every time she asks, the other party can't help but look at her a few more times, which can't help but make her feel very surprised, but when she asks why, the other party always shakes her head without saying a word, or just says "nothing". .But judging from his expression, it was obvious that his words were insincere.

Because of this, when she was about to reach Huaiquan Temple, Su Ruiran deliberately slowed down, taking every step with extra vigilance.

Huaiquan Temple is located in a deep and long alley on West Street, surrounded by two-person-high earthen walls, and the mottled bricks on the wall have traces of falling off and breaking off, and it looks like it has been around for a long time.

This path is covered with uneven stone slabs. Even so, this path is surprisingly clean, as if it has been cleaned deliberately by someone. There is not even a speck of dust on the stone slabs. It is hard to imagine that the two sides are all loose. earthen wall.

This corridor can only accommodate one person to pass through, and it is impossible to tell how long it is, only the brightly lit exit can be seen far ahead.

It was the first time she had seen such a strange street, a bit like the promenade in the palace, but it was so narrow that it was not like a place for ordinary people to pass through.

The surroundings suddenly became extremely quiet. Before entering this alley, the noisy voices of people on the street could still be heard, but after entering, the surrounding sounds seemed to be isolated from the outside world, and there was an indescribable weirdness.

Su Ruiran raised her vigilance, paying special attention to every move around her. Her only defense was the dagger hidden in the sleeve of her right hand.She secretly hid her hands in her sleeves and clenched them tightly, suddenly regretted that it was too reckless for her to break in so rashly, but the matter had come to this point, she could only bite the bullet and move forward.

It was with such uneasy feelings that she walked to the end of the corridor in such a safe and sound way.When she stepped out of the tunnel and was bathed in the bright white sky again, she couldn't help squinting and raised her hand to block her eyes.

The strong light blurred his vision for a while, and then gradually returned to normal.

She began to see a stone tablet as tall as a person standing in front of her, with three large characters engraved in it from top to bottom—Huangquan Road.

Eyes finally began to adapt to the surrounding light, Su Ruiran couldn't help but turn her head back, and now looking at the corridor that she walked through just now, it was indeed pitch black, with a very eerie and eerie appearance.It really fits the meaning of Huangquan Road, it seems that I have really passed through the gate of hell just now.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help laughing at herself, and quickly turned her head, her gaze fell behind the sign.I saw a dilapidated temple standing there, with peeling-painted pillars, broken bricks and tiles, and a half-fallen plaque. Although the plaque was damaged, it could still distinguish three words—Huaiquan Temple.

Unexpectedly, it was such a place, Su Ruiran was more or less surprised, especially when she saw that from the steps at the entrance of the temple to the stone pillars, there were all kinds of yellow paper with red pen and symbols on it, she suddenly understood that those people just saw Why is my eyes so strange.It seems that in the eyes of the nearby residents, this Huaiquan Temple is an ominous place.

Although I don't know why this is so, just by the deep and narrow Huangqun roadside just now, we can know the weirdness of this place.Doesn't this mean that coming here is equivalent to going to the gate of hell?But just like that, she became somewhat interested in it. Huaiquan Temple and the ghost-masked man seem to match each other very well.

At this moment, she suddenly noticed footsteps walking towards her.

She made a decisive decision and immediately hid behind an ancient tree as thick as two people in front of the temple, and she heard footsteps getting closer and closer.

Her back was pressed against the big tree, feeling the rough bark against her skin through her clothes.She heard her heartbeat and felt that her emotions were getting more and more tense.Judging from the sound analysis, it was a person who came, but it didn't come from the direction of Huang Qun Road that he passed just now.

But from the sound of the opponent's footsteps, it is impossible to tell whether it is a man or a woman, which is enough to prove that the opponent's lightness kung fu is definitely not low.

So at this time, Su Ruiran couldn't rush to look around, otherwise she might be noticed by the other party.Although she didn't look at it, she also expected that nine times out of ten, the person who came was probably the ghost-faced man.

Thinking of the opponent's skill, she held her breath and listened carefully to the movements around her.

She heard the hem of the clothes flicking the yellow paper, and the slight sound made by the thin pieces of paper, he knew that the other party had already stepped onto the bed.Sure enough, there was a "creak" sound, very sharp teeth, it seems that the door was pushed open.After waiting for a while, the sound of footsteps gradually faded away, and she immediately followed after keeping a safe distance from the other party to ensure that she would not be noticed. Even so, she was still very cautious.

Su Ruiran passed through the half-opened gate very quickly, and as soon as she arrived in the yard, she saw a white dress disappearing at the end of the corridor in front of her.

The moment she saw the white clothes, she couldn't help feeling surprised. It was far from the ghost-masked man in her mind. Perhaps it was a contrast of black and white, but for some reason, she had a vague illusion, as if she had known each other before.

Maybe it's just because I have had many contacts with the ghost-faced man that I feel this way, which is not surprising.

Su Ruiran followed cautiously. Although the temple looked dilapidated, it was very spacious.Su Ruiran followed him through two winding corridors, and passed a deserted Buddhist hall on the way. Through the dilapidated wooden window, three statues standing side by side with faded paint were still faintly visible in the dark space. The Buddha statue is surrounded by spider webs.

It seems that this place has been abandoned for a long time, but because of this, it can also be used as a secret chamber of commerce.

The man in white stopped outside the wing room in a courtyard behind the Buddhist hall. Su Ruiran followed him all the way and never saw him in front of him, but judging from his neatly combed hair and jade crown on top of his head, it must be the same. The appearance of a son of a wealthy family.

Although it is far from what he imagined, it is precisely because of this that he can better hide his original ghost-faced man's true identity.

Su Ruiran watched his every move from a distance, and saw him knock on the wooden door three times, but he didn't turn his head to check the surrounding situation.

Soon the wooden door opened from the inside, and the man in white went straight in. Just as he turned around to close the door, Su Ruiran saw his face clearly, and was speechless in surprise.
