Chapter 283 Could it be a ghost?
In broad daylight, Qiao Mengling and Aunt Mei, two living people, actually vanished out of thin air right under the noses of nearly ten experts!?
The secret guards immediately scattered to search, but found that the ground around them was strangely clean, without any trace of footprints!
Everyone looked at each other, and their hearts were filled with horror... This situation was absolutely beyond human control!
Could it be...that there are ghosts?
The secret guards did not dare to delay and hurried to the flower hall to report to Xiao Tangbao.
Mrs. Lu was also shocked when she heard the news, and immediately ordered all the servants in the mansion to join the search.
Just as everyone was divided into several teams and running hurriedly to look for Qiao Mengling and Aunt Mei, the secret guards responsible for protecting Tang Bao suddenly realized that their little princess had also disappeared out of thin air!
"Where's the princess?!"
"The princess was just now..."
"We're looking for someone right now. The princess would never suddenly run away without saying a word or using a speed spell!"
“…”
Everyone was briefly frightened, thinking that they were blinded by a ghost again... They hurriedly took out the talisman they carried with them and slapped themselves on the forehead without caring about anything.
However, after trying several times, his forehead was slapped until it was blue and purple, but there was still no sign of the little princess!
"You continue searching for the princess," the leading secret guard's voice trembled slightly. "The third brother and I will split up. One of us will quickly report to the prince, and the other will immediately bring Baihu back!"
The white tiger can recognize the little princess's scent, the sooner we bring it back the better!
......
A quarter of an hour ago, Xiao Tangbao, who was searching for two missing adults with the secret guards, suddenly caught a glimpse of a palm-sized white paper figure flashing past under the corridor! ?
The paper figurine was crudely cut, and seemed to have life, running very fast! It also exuded a chilling and cold aura...
The little guy's heart trembled. Without time to think, nor to greet others, he subconsciously chased after the paper man.
In the slight mist, she ran madly after the paper man until she entered a room where miscellaneous items were stored and she was able to stop.
The door slammed shut.
The paper man seemed to be provoking, circling around little Tangbao non-stop... The little guy felt dizzy because of it, and he jumped up and down, trying to catch it several times but failed!
She puffed out her cheeks, put her hands on her hips angrily, and was about to turn around and leave when she saw the little paper man suddenly "whoosh" and slip into an almost invisible crack in the wall, disappearing in an instant!
Xiao Tangbao had been to the secret room in Pang Mansion. Her first reaction was that there was also a secret room here. Maybe those who disappeared in Wuxinhou Mansion were all in it!
But how can she find the switch of the secret room?
The little guy was suddenly in trouble, and his brows were tightly furrowed.
She subconsciously turned around and called the secret guard...
At this moment, a translucent ghost suddenly floated towards her, as if afraid that she would realize that she was alone, and timidly pointed to an ordinary flowerpot in the corner that was very clean but had a missing piece.
Tang Bao was so curious about the little paper figurine that she half-believed it and involuntarily followed the ghost's instructions, turning the flower pot...
Suddenly, there was a slight "click" sound, and the wall in front of him shook slightly, and then a narrow door that was only wide enough for one person to pass through slid open!
"Wow--!!"
The little guy's eyes lit up instantly.
Tangbao can even crack the mechanism, Tangbao is awesome!
She took out her Qiankun bag and threw the offering to the ghost with gratitude.
The male ghost bowed and thanked him repeatedly, his attitude extremely humble...
After receiving the other party's numerous thanks, Tang Bao turned around and walked cautiously into the dark secret passage.
However, just as her figure gradually disappeared into the depths of the secret passage, the male ghost who had been servile and submissive slowly straightened his soul. His eyes were filled with hatred, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
......
After walking through a damp and cold narrow corridor, Xiao Tangbao suddenly saw a heavy stone door in front of him!
The stone door was not completely closed, and at this moment there was a very narrow gap. Wisps of cold air floated out from it, which was exactly the same as the breath from the strange paper man just now!
The little guy immediately held his breath, puffed out his belly, tiptoed closer to the gap, and carefully peeked inside...
In the dimly lit secret room with flickering lights, there was actually an exquisite altar! ?
The talisman pennants are hanging low, the incense sticks are flickering...it looks eerie and creepy!
A young Taoist priest was frowning as he was tidying up Aunt Mei's messy hair. Seeing her black hair falling out in clumps, he became more gentle and careful.
On the other side, Qiao, with her hands tied behind her back, didn't care about the bloody scratches on her face and neck, and crawled on her knees with difficulty, moving towards the table not far away.
“Youyou!?” Her voice was hoarse and urgent, with tears in her eyes, she called out over and over again: “Youyou… Youyou? I finally found you! I’m here to save you! Open your eyes and look at me…”
Tang Bao: "..."
So... Lu Youyou was kidnapped by Aunt Mei and this handsome Taoist priest?
The little guy blinked his big round eyes, stood on tiptoe and looked through the crack in the door.
This time she saw more clearly. There was indeed an unconscious little girl lying on the table inside!
On another desk not far from that desk, there was a very small figure curled up.
The child was wearing a pink dress, and her face was tightly wrapped with layers of thin white cloth, revealing only a pair of blood-red eyes...
Mrs. Qiao fell to the ground and struggled for a while without getting up. She suddenly turned her head and glared at Aunt Mei fiercely:
"Bitch! How dare you set up a secret room in the Marquis's mansion and commit adultery with this demon?! How many other dirty deeds have you done without the Marquis' knowledge?!"
"Lu Hong must be blind to fall in love with you... God is so unfair!"
"Quickly let Youyou and me go! Otherwise, I won't let you go even if I become a ghost! When the Marquis finds out the truth, he will definitely chop you into pieces!!!"
Aunt Mei let her curse and yell at the top of her lungs without even raising her eyelids, her face full of contempt and disdain.
Only after the young Taoist priest carefully tidied up the last strand of her hair did she slowly raise her eyelids, her gaze like a poisoned knife piercing straight at Qiao Mengling...
