Chapter 48: The Secret of Linhu Village 19
Su Qingyun didn't need to guess who it was with this technique and strength. She broke away a little and warned in a low voice, "Boss Xu, could you please stop covering my mouth all the time?"
"Shh, follow me." Xu Xinghe grabbed Su Qingyun's arm and led her to the back of the clock tower.
Then, Su Qingyun saw him push open a partition.
Behind the partition is a secret passage leading downwards.
Su Qingyun, "..." He could even find this?
Rustle, rustle, footsteps approaching.
Before Su Qingyun had time to think about it, Xu Xinghe held down her head and forcibly pulled her into the secret passage.
When the footsteps stopped in front of the bell tower, Xu Xinghe had already closed the partition quietly.
Immediately afterwards, Su Qingyun heard the sound of dang-dang-dang bells.
Deafening.
After three knocks, there was silence all around, and then the sound of footsteps gradually faded away.
Su Qingyun opened the partition and crawled out, her head buzzing at this time.
She rubbed her ears and wanted to look at the cabin, but found that it was completely dark and visibility was poor. She could only feel the outline of Xu Xinghe behind her.
The sky darkened so quickly, in the blink of an eye.
"Why does this temple ring the bell every half hour?" And the time calculation is not accurate.
Xu Xinghe answered concisely, "You'll have to ask the bell ringer."
Su Qingyun, "..."
Xu Xinghe added, "Why did you call me Mr. Xu just now?"
"Because you invited me to work at Fanxing Group, I want to adapt to the company environment in advance."
Su Qingyun said this, but in fact she called Mr. Xu because she was unhappy.
Su Qingyun likes to use honorifics when she is upset with someone.
Unexpectedly, Xu Xinghe took advantage of the situation and said, "Since you called me Mr. Xu, let me arrange the next move. We will go down the secret passage."
Su Qingyun, "..."
Xu Xinghe, "Do you want to go first or later?"
Su Qingyun, "..."
Xu Xinghe, "I suggest you follow me."
Su Qingyun, "..."
The next second, Xu Xinghe's silhouette disappeared in the secret passage.
Su Qingyun silently took out her cell phone from her bag and turned on the flashlight function.
She closed the partition, lighting up her nimble future boss.
But in my heart, I felt unhappy again.
The secret passage was not easy to walk through because it led downwards. Su Qingyun could only use his hands and feet to move downwards.
Xu Xinghe was still walking very fast. Su Qingyun had only taken three steps when she heard the sound of him jumping to the ground.
He also encouraged her in a low voice, "Slide down and I'll catch you."
Su Qingyun gritted her teeth and persisted. She didn't want to be looked down upon by him, but in the end she still fell down.
Xu Xinghe also kept his promise and caught her, holding her under his armpit with one hand like a chicken.
This made Su Qingyun feel very embarrassed. She was an old player, but was defeated in seconds by a newbie.
Fortunately, Xu Xinghe is not Ye Jian. Although he is a bit bureaucratic, he is not mean-spirited. After catching Su Qingyun, he asked her if she was okay.
"It's okay," Su Qingyun replied and said, "Mr. Xu, can you put me down?"
Xu Xinghe let go of his hand, and Su Qingyun staggered.
"What should we do next?" Su Qingyun held the phone in front of Xu Xinghe, and the pale light from the phone screen shone on Xu Xinghe's face.
Xu Xinghe was able to withstand such a death ray.
"Let me take a look." The phone came into Xu Xinghe's hand, and he began to patrol the surroundings.
The surroundings are simple, with earth walls on three sides and a passage on one side.
Xu Xinghe was very interested in the earthen wall. He took a look and said to Su Qingyun, "This was dug out with a shovel."
Su Qingyun thought that there was no need to study the excavation tools at this time, but the next second she understood the meaning of Xu Xinghe's words.
She began to wonder why a temple with only three monks would build a secret passage in the bell tower on the mountain?
It's unscientific!
If you want to hide something, why not just build a secret cave at the foot of the mountain?
While Su Qingyun was thinking, Xu Xinghe had already walked forward.
I have to say that he is really very proactive.
Su Qingyun could only follow.
Unlike the passage going down, the parallel passage going forward is dug very flat and wide, allowing two people to walk side by side.
Su Qingyun had no cell phone and had to use the black stick to protect Xu Xinghe.
After the two men walked about ten meters, the passage suddenly forked and there was a sound of water.
“Drip, drip, drip.”
"It's better if we don't separate." Xu Xinghe said.
Su Qingyun felt that he was making a decision.
Okay, if we don’t want to separate, then we don’t. Su Qingyun still has a team spirit, but this time she has to make a choice.
She went to the cave where the sound of dripping water could be heard.
Xu Xinghe hurried to follow.
With someone holding a "lamp" behind her, Su Qingyun walked very fast. She felt that she could keep up with Xu Xinghe's speed.
Unexpectedly, she walked so fast and the attack came so quickly.
At a corner, a woman in a white dress suddenly appeared. Her long hair was like a waterfall, covering most of her face. Only her pale chin and chapped lips could be seen.
Su Qingyun was caught off guard and was frightened by the sudden appearance of this woman, so she stepped back repeatedly. Fortunately, Xu Xinghe supported her from behind.
"Who?" she asked, her voice trembling.
In the past, when something strange appeared, she would close her eyes and hide under Ye Yi's wings. This was the first time she was hit directly in the face.
Su Qingyun was shaking all over, relying solely on her stubbornness to hold on.
The woman did not step forward, but slowly raised her head, revealing a pair of empty and lifeless eyes, with black tears of blood flowing from her eye sockets.
"My lover, where is my lover?" Her voice was low and hoarse, as if it came from the depths of hell.
Then she saw Xu Xinghe, and an excited smile appeared on her strange face.
"My lover!" She stretched out her dry hands and tried to grab Xu Xinghe over Su Qingyun.
Xu Xinghe slowly stretched out his index finger and tapped the woman's forehead.
The woman stopped moving.
Like a puppet, all movements stopped, head drooped, and the person looked lifeless.
Su Qingyun took the opportunity to retreat behind Xu Xinghe.
Relying on the strong to survive is also one of the rules for passing the level.
Su Qingyun's dissatisfaction with Xu Xinghe eased a little.
Next she planned to use him as her nightie.
But the woman only stopped for a moment, and soon she came back to life, raised her head, opened her bloodshot eyes, and called Xu Xinghe her lover again.
The love is deep and sincere, and I feel worried and pity.
Su Qingyun hid behind Xu Xinghe and asked him, "Your ex-girlfriend?"
Xu Xinghe didn't say anything, just glanced at her.
The woman extended her hand again, but she did not move forward.
Su Qingyun discovered that she had a pair of anklets on her ankles.
She was locked up here!
Who is she and why is she imprisoned here?
Xu Xinghe finally spoke, and just one sentence shocked Su Qingyun.
He asked the woman, "Are you a fairy in the woods?"
A fairy in the forest? This woman?
Su Qingyun hurriedly looked towards the woman. The county annals recorded that Lin Zhongxian was a brave woman who pursued her love without hesitation without fear of worldly views.
How could she be locked up here while pursuing love?
When the woman heard the words "Fairy in the Forest", her face suddenly flushed and she smiled gently at Xu Xinghe.
"You are indeed my lover!"
Su Qingyun suddenly thought of a possibility that Xu Xinghe entered this copy just to find the Forest Fairy.
Because he was her lover in her previous life.
