Chapter 697 The Young Lady and the Repairman (27)

The mysterious footprints in the house, the bridal chamber hidden behind the wall, and the long nights that seemed to last forever, all of these hinted that it was unnatural forces at work.

Shi Li accidentally discovered the bridal chamber, and he was just one step away from being able to get out. Thanks to his good luck, he happened to meet Luo Xuan and was able to save his life.

For life, Shi Li is more obsessed with survival than ordinary people, so he can always so "naively" call Luo Xiao "father", even though he knows that Luo Xiao has no affection for him at all. As long as he can survive, what does it matter even if he recognizes a thief as his father?

Lan Pigeon is a local, and of course he has heard a lot about the weird things that happened in Minghu Manor. He swallowed nervously, "Is there really a ghost?"

Otherwise, there is no reason to explain why Shi Li found the mysterious wedding room, and there is no reason to explain why they were trapped

here. Shi Li guessed, "If there is really a ghost, are the people in the lake coming out frequently to look for people because they are dissatisfied with his wife moving out after his death?"

Lan Pigeon continued: "If this is the case, Mr. Luo must know something. What is his purpose in keeping us in this manor?"

When saying this, Lan Pigeon glanced at Luo Xuan.

The expression on Luo Xuan's face did not reveal what she was thinking. Even though she had a hunch that she was the one left behind, she did not show any disbelief or pain.

Perhaps she had long been accustomed to not having hope in the men around her.

Her fiancé Xiao Beichen was like this, and so was her father Luo Xiao.

For her, only her mother was the most important person.

Her mother was the eldest daughter of the Cheng family, and of course she was also a proud woman. She would tolerate Luo Xiao bringing back his illegitimate daughter, and would turn a blind eye to Luo Xiao's extramarital affair, but it was also for Luo Xuan.

Cheng Li wanted to protect Luo Xuan. Every bit of the Luo family's property was Luo Xuan's, and she would not allow it to be taken away by others.

The sound of footsteps came slowly, and every time they landed, they made a sticky sound because of the soil. The danger in the darkness seemed to become concrete. As the sound got closer, the air became more humid, and breathing became gradually difficult.

Blue Pigeon said: "Run!"

Looking back, Shi Li had already grabbed Luo Xuan's hand and ran back.

They couldn't see the terrifying figure, but they could hear the footsteps of pursuit. In the face of unnatural forces, human power seemed so small.

They were surrounded by the oppression of the undercurrent. If they walked a little slower, they would be the next person to have their necks broken.

At the moment when the humid air invaded, the sound of fleeing footsteps became heavier.

Seeing that the black figure behind them gradually became clearer, Lan Pigeon said quickly: "I'll lead him away, you guys hide quickly!"

"Wait!" Before Luo Xuan could finish her sentence, she was dragged into a room by Shi Li.

Lan Pigeon looked at the door that was closed mercilessly, and couldn't help but complain in his heart that Shi Li was really a decisive brat. He didn't even feel the slightest gratitude for his heroic sacrifice, even if he pretended to be moved.

In the room, Luo Xuan shook off Shi Li's hand, "If we leave him alone outside, he will die!"

"Since he wants to be a hero, we have to respect his choice." Shi Li said: "Big sister, I will accompany you to cherish him in the future. During the Qingming Festival, we can go to burn incense for him

together." Luo Xuan has never seen a person like Shi Li. Even if he is selfish, he will be a little hypocritical and pretend to be dignified. However, Shi Li is too lazy to pretend now. He does not hide his badness and does not have any correct values.

Luo Xuan suddenly asked: "Whose room is this?"

Shi Li also realized that the surrounding environment was not right.

The furniture in this room is very similar to the wedding room he saw before, but this room is smaller than that room. However, the appearance of this room is not retro, but a real old style. Judging from the things on the dressing table, this is a woman's room.

On the wall, there is a white silk wedding dress, but in this era, this style of wedding dress has long been eliminated.

Luo Xuan suddenly thought, "After the grandfather died, the grandmother moved out of the wedding room. This must be the room she lived in before."

The time in the manor seemed to be in chaos. They just walked into a room casually, and ended up stepping into another time and space.

Luo Xuan didn't care about being scared, nor did she care about whether there was a reasonable answer to the unreasonable things in front of her. She just thought that maybe she could find a way to solve the problem of the people in the lake and save her mother.

Shi Li watched Luo Xuan searching for things like rummaging through boxes and cabinets, and he suddenly understood. Luo Xuan went to search the closet, and he went to search the drawers of the table.

After a while, Luo Xuan found a wooden box in the cabinet, "There is a lock here, I can't open it."

Shi Li walked over and squatted beside her, "Lend me a hairpin."

Luo Xuan looked at him suspiciously and took a black hairpin from her head.

Shi Li put the tip of the hairpin into the keyhole. I don't know how he did it. After a while, after a "click", the lock opened.

Luo Xuan asked in surprise: "How do you know how to pick a lock?"

"I learned it when I was hungry and had nothing to eat as a child." Shi Li returned the hairpin to Luo Xuan, with an innocent smile on his young face. There was no sign that he had ever had a life of hunger and cold.

Luo Xuan avoided his gaze, pinned the hairpin back into her hair, opened the wooden box, and found letters inside.

She picked up a letter at random and opened it. The penmanship on the page was vigorous and powerful.

[Lan Ya, I heard that your family intends to marry you into the Luo family. To me, this news is like a bolt from the blue. I know very well that I am just a colleague and not worthy of you, but please wait for me for a while. I have decided to join the army. I will definitely come back with military merits and marry you openly! 】
