The resentment in her heart still hadn't completely dissipated. However, after several verbal battles just now, her lips and tongue were parched, and her mouth was indeed parched. As early as the moment she woke up, she was extremely thirsty. , the air and fragrance in the mouth have been robbed several times.
In the end, she could not withstand the torment of thirst. After a while, Liu Yingying pursed her lips, raised her chin proudly, and then stretched out her hand.
However, Shen Lang lowered his eyes and glanced at the shocking circles of red marks on Xue's wrists. They were accidentally made when he nailed her Xue's wrists to her head at the desk just now. Shen Lang stared at the traces. After a while, his heart suddenly softened. He held the tea cup himself and brought the light green tea cup to her lips.
I fed it myself.
Liu Yingying's face swelled. She had never been fed tea like this before.
So, the moment Shen Lang fed him in person, she subconsciously hid back.
The teacup lost its support and rolled over again. The tea poured out and hit Liu Yingying's neck. Liu Yingying was startled and subconsciously lifted up her clothes to check. Unexpectedly, she had no clothes to lift at this moment.
The moment he lifted up the black brocade robe, a piece of snow-white congealing material was revealed in front of his eyes.
Although it was quickly covered up again, it still caught Shen Lang's eyes.
Wet and trembling.
All were stained by that piece of tea cup.
Shen Lang's eyes darkened, and his breathing suddenly became heavy. After a while, he suddenly turned around until the rosary beads fell off his sleeves. He pressed hard with his fingertips and almost crushed one of the jade beads.
At this time, Liu Yingying behind her blushed, finally gritted her teeth and quickly put on her clothes.
Chapter 086
It is said that after Liu Yingying put on the dress, she later realized that it was not her original dress. Although the color was almost the same, the fabric of the dress was clearly different.
Although the Liu family was born as a merchant, they were not wealthy. In addition, Liu's father was cautious in officialdom, so Liu Yingying's clothes were not gorgeous at all. Compared with the girls in the Shen family who often wore dozens or hundreds of taels of snow-made clothes, Liu Yingying wore only one. The clothes probably only cost a few taels of silver, and they only cost a dozen taels of silver.
Before coming to the Shen family, I made a few more expensive outfits, but I had to save them for critical moments, such as the red coral dress for Mrs. Shen's birthday party.
Therefore, after wearing it this time, I quickly noticed the difference.
The fabric is as silky and smooth as milk, soft and delicate. It feels close to the skin and refreshing when worn. It is surprisingly comfortable and fits surprisingly well.
The clothes were placed on the couch, within reach of one's hands, neatly stacked. Liu Yingying was so anxious that she didn't take a closer look. She just thought they were hers, but found that they were not behind her. Only then did she realize that she was behind them. The clothes on his body had been completely torn long ago.
So, this dress right now is... the new dress that you have prepared for a long time?
Was it something Shen Lang prepared for others, or did he know early in the morning that what happened today would happen?
If it's the former, it's inexplicable, and if it's the latter, it's more than just disgust, it's simply shameless.
I don't know if it was Liu Yingying's illusion. After she woke up, she felt refreshed all over her body, not as greasy as before. Obviously, her body had been cleaned by someone during the time she fell asleep, and looking at it... Looking at it, the entire secret room has long been restored to its original neatness and cleanliness.
There were only two of them in this secret room from beginning to end, so it wasn't Liu Yingying who did all that. You don't need to think about it, you know who it is?
Anyway, that kind of thing has been done before, and what needs to be seen has been seen long ago. It is just cleaning up. What's more, it is just a piece of clothes. I have already worn them, so I won't take them off. Liu Yingying only Holding back the shame in his heart, he got dressed and got off the bed.
The secret room is not big, and because it is underground, it is very quiet. It is quiet now, no one speaks, only Liu Yingying's rustling sound can be heard.
After staying in bed, Shen Lang finally turned around with his hands behind his back as usual and glanced at Liu Yingying.
But Liu Yingying bit her lip and turned her back to him, never speaking.
There was dead silence in the room.
There was also a faint air of ambiguity, embarrassment and hostility.
Liu Yingying originally wanted to threaten and warn again, but she knew that before going to bed, all threats or requests might still be useful. After all, the chips were in hand at that time, and once they went to bed, stinky men often They all put on their pants and don’t recognize people.
Back then, I saw Liu Yingying a lot in Wanhua Tower.
Desire afterward is nothing but self-inflicted humiliation.
Therefore, when the matter related to Mr. Shen Liu finally came to his lips, it turned into: "Can we open it now?"
Liu Yingying finally spoke, but she only asked coldly.
As soon as she finished speaking, she walked directly to the stone door, with her back straight and a noble posture. From the beginning to the end, she never looked back.
Shen Lang raised his eyebrows and glanced at Liu Yingying. After a while, he slowly walked towards the stone wall and gently pressed the head of the stone lion on the stone wall. In an instant, the stone door slowly opened.
When Liu Yingying saw this, she sarcastically raised her lips.
Ha, as expected——
The next moment, I walked towards the back of the stone door with my head high and my chest high. When I raised my feet, I saw that the end of the stone door was pitch black and bottomless.
Subconsciously, he wanted to touch the fire fold in his arms. When he checked it, he found that he had changed his clothes and his clothes were already empty.
Liu Yingying gritted her teeth for a while and was about to walk in the dark. At this time, a black square ebony box was suddenly and quietly handed over.
Liu Yingying glanced out of the corner of her eye and saw that Shen Lang had arrived behind him at some point. He casually took out the ebony brocade box from the corner of the book wall.
Liu Yingying glanced at the ebony brocade box and the hand holding the brocade box. She subconsciously wanted to roll her eyes and was too lazy to pay attention.
However, Liu Yingying had just seen this box on the bookshelf. It looked inconspicuous, but it was one of the few clutter on the entire bookshelf.
I don’t know what the purpose of this person named Shen was. After hesitating for a long time, Liu Yingying finally took the brocade box over expressionlessly. The moment she opened the box, a crystal clear white light suddenly appeared. Overflowing from the brocade box.
In an instant, the entire yellowish secret room was dyed a translucent white.
I saw that what was contained in the box was... a night pearl?
Liu Yingying was stunned for a moment, and saw that the luminous pearl was about the size of an egg, round and glowing with dazzling white light. In an instant, it illuminated the entire secret room and the dark secret passage in front of it like daylight.
This luminous pearl should be worth a lot of money.
Suddenly, I vaguely remembered that that night, I was also walking slowly in a bright color.
Thinking like this, the next moment, Liu Yingying took out the luminous pearl from the box without hesitation and held it tightly in her hand, then threw the ebony box away, snorted coldly, and then held up the luminous pearl without looking back. He stepped into the secret passage and walked away.
He didn't say a word, and looked completely unappreciative.
Shen Langfeng's eyes twitched slightly.
After a while, the tail of the narrow eyes seemed to be raised upward.
After a moment, she took two steps forward with her hands behind her back, and stood where Liu Yingying was standing just now. She kept watching the bright light in the secret passage in the distance drifting farther and farther, until the light turned and changed its path. , completely disappeared before his eyes, and Shen Lang calmly withdrew his sight.
After a while, he raised his hand and saw a gold hairpin in his hand.
Shen Lang looked at it indifferently. After a while, his slender fingers suddenly tightened and he held the golden hairpin tightly in his hand.
In other words, the Night Pearl illuminated the entire secret passage as if it were daytime, which was much better than the Fire Pearl. It took less than half an hour to go there, but only took about a quarter of an hour to return.
At this time, it was only the fourth watch, everything was immersed in darkness, and the entire Qinfang Courtyard was silent and lifeless.
That night, Pinyue got up in the middle of the night and went to the hut. He was in a daze, chattering all over the sky, walking with his eyes closed, but accidentally walked in the opposite direction and walked outside the yard. When he pulled the yard door, he almost missed it. My feet got caught on the threshold, and I rubbed my eyes for a moment and looked up in a daze, only to realize that I had gone in the opposite direction and had gone outside the yard.
He immediately rubbed his eyes and was about to retreat, but suddenly he raised his eyes and vaguely saw a ball of white light swaying in the forest in the distance.
Pinyue thought she had made a mistake, so she immediately opened her eyes and rubbed them again. When she opened them again and looked intently, she was shocked to see a figure in white floating behind the white light. The white-clothed figure had disheveled hair, a face glowing green, and its hair spread all the way to its feet. It floated slowly and quietly from the center of the dense forest.
When Pinyue saw it, she was immediately frightened and screamed: "Ghost... there is a ghost——"
As soon as he finished speaking, he rolled his eyes and was so frightened that he fainted on the spot.
Liu Yingying: "..."
Chapter 087
It is said that after Pinyue was frightened to death by the female ghost, she was so frightened that she became ill for two days in a row, and then she clamored to go back to Shouantang. Mother Wu was so noisy that her head hurt. After listening to it for a long time, I was a little doubtful, so the next day I invited a wife from the Shen family who knew a little about ghosts and gods to come over and sprinkle glutinous rice wine to drive away the evil spirits. However, it was better not to drive away the evil spirits. Once the evil spirits were driven out, the whole Qin Dynasty Fangyuan was all panicked.
When everyone saw the dense forest opposite Qinfang Courtyard, their hearts beat loudly. Especially at night, they only dared to walk together. For a while, the news of being haunted slowly spread throughout Beiyuan. .
After Pinyue was frightened, she would describe the terrifying sight of that day with a frightened look on her face. When she saw the person, she would mumble: "The female ghost was dressed in white and had a bloody mouth. A mouthful of half-inch-long fangs and no legs floated directly out from the forest. I was so frightened that I fainted on the spot. If I hadn't fainted, I would have been snatched away by the ghost girl—— "
"Don't believe it. If I bump into you one day, you will believe it."
"By the way, I don't know if I'm overthinking it, but I always feel that the figure of that female ghost looks a bit like... like the one in our yard——"
Pinyue winked in the direction of the west courtyard.
It’s not that she was chattering away and talking incoherently. How could a female ghost with a big mouth and fangs look like the one in the west courtyard?
However, Pinyue just felt like it, and the more she thought about it, the more they looked like each other.
Maybe she complained too much about Liu Yingying in private, but now that she told the truth, everyone just laughed and said nothing. They just felt that she was either possessed by a demon or was deliberately setting it up. people.
The maids have their own circle of maids, and it is not uncommon for them to get together to complain about their respective masters.
"Girl, what do you think?"
In the east courtyard, the maid Cuicui looked at the eloquent Pinyue in the distance and couldn't help but say something meaningful.
As he said that, he thought of the recent rumors of female ghosts in Qinfang Courtyard. After thinking about it, he couldn't help but said: "Speaking of which, since Miss Liu came here, our Qinfang Courtyard has indeed had several strange things happen. Come on, girl, do you still remember that day when everyone got up late?"
Cuicui remembered something and said suddenly.
Hearing this, Yao Yulan glanced at Cuicui and thought about it. It was two days after the princess's birthday banquet. One day, everyone got up early and fell asleep for no reason. At that time, she felt Nahan, someone said with a smile, "We could have been sucked away by a female ghost. Our souls will last for one day." He winked at the other side of the west courtyard and said: "Speaking of which, Miss Liu is also very sick. She doesn't ask for a doctor or medicine when she is sick, but the door is closed tightly. She will be closed for four or five days. I'm fine, but I don't know what the disease is."
After thinking about it, Cuicui said again: "Speaking of which, this Miss Liu has only been in the Shen family for more than a month. There has been a lot of trouble in our courtyard alone. Girl, could it be that? Isn’t there really something evil about Miss Liu?”
Cuicui analyzed seriously.
Yao Yulan heard the words, pondered for a moment, and then said lightly: "There are no ghosts and gods in the world. Either it was dark that night and Pinyue saw it wrong, or Pinyue really saw it that night. What--"
While talking, she and Cuicui looked at each other, and then they saw Yao Yulan glanced in the direction of the forest across the yard, and then looked toward the west courtyard next door, and suddenly said to Cuicui: "Anyway. It’s still early, let’s go and explore!”
After that, he led Cuicui into the forest to search.
This forest is not big, because it is a dense forest with many shrubs, so no one came in in the past. After entering now, I found a path in the forest. Walking along the path, I found an abandoned pavilion. , there is a rock behind the pavilion, Yao Yulan walked to the rock and stopped, staring at the rock quietly for a moment, then her eyes fell on the lower rock, and she stared at it intently.
Cuicui followed Yao Yulan's line of sight and saw that few people came to this place, which was semi-abandoned. Therefore, a thick layer of gray fell on the ground. Looking carefully, there seemed to be a few scattered on the rocky ground. footprint.
Cuicui's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately followed the footprints to the rocks, and when she looked inside, she saw that the next moment, Cuicui immediately shouted in shock: "Girl, there is a stone door here -"
Yao Yulan saw this and walked slowly over. She saw that the stone door was integrated with the entire mountain stone. It would be difficult to detect it at a glance unless you looked closely. At this moment, the stone door was tightly closed. She pushed it with the palm of her hand, but it couldn't be pushed. , I have been testing for a long time, but I can’t find the method to open the door.
However, remembering Pinyue's eloquent words just now, and looking at the stone gate in front of her, Yao Yulan's expression became slightly complicated.
After Liu Yingying came out of the west courtyard, she happened to bump into Yao Yulan's master and servant coming out of the dense forest opposite. Liu Yingying's expression paused slightly when she saw this.
Unexpectedly, when he came back in the middle of the night that day, he was bumped into by Pinyue.
