As Rong Niang slowly turned around and continued walking up the mud steps expressionlessly, Ji Wanrong and Mo Jiecheng could only suppress the horror in their hearts and followed Rong Niang and continued walking. Go up.
The further up he went, the more clearly Ji Wanrong felt that the steps under his feet were getting narrower.
Not only the steps, but also the space in front of me became narrower.
This time he didn't walk for a long time. Ji Wanrong only felt that after walking around this floor for a while, he reached the place where Rong Niang wanted to go.
Rong Niang slowly stopped.
Ji Wanrong raised his head politely at this moment, and what he saw was Rong Niang stopping at the door.
Where Rong Niang was standing at the moment, behind her was a two-meter-high lacquered red carved wooden door. The wooden door looked majestic, magnificent and beautiful, completely opposite to the small broken wooden door Ji Wanrong had seen downstairs before.
There were no steps behind Rong Niang at this moment, and the tall wooden door made Ji Wanrong certain that this was the top floor of the secret base.
After Rong Niang stopped, she turned to look in the direction of Ji Wanrong.
Immediately, a person dressed as a maid walked up to Rong Niang, took out the key, and opened the lock on the wooden door in front of Rong Niang.
With a click, the lock opened.
Ji Wanrong's eyelids twitched, and then he saw the little maid taking off the door lock and hurriedly opening the door.
Rong Niang slowly took a step inside, and then said with a smile: "Come in, I'm afraid it will be hard after walking for a long time."
When Ji Wanrong stepped into the door, he was still thinking about the purpose of Rong Niang's actions and what was waiting for them behind the door.
After all, she clearly understood that Rong Niang definitely did not completely believe her at this moment.
But when Ji Wanrong walked in, he saw a spacious room.
The interior of the room is magnificent, and the various decorations are very gorgeous and elegant. The golden decoration makes the whole room look very bright, as if it has a bit of life.
There is no longer that dull and breathless feeling when you just pass by other rooms.
Ji Wanrong even felt that the palaces of the empresses in Beili Palace were not as gorgeous and elegant as the decoration of Rong Niang's house.
Rong Niang stepped across the carpet and guided Ji Wanrong and Mo Jiecheng to sit down on chairs made of pear wood. Then she poured a cup of tea for Ji Wanrong herself.
Ji Wanrong was wary of Rong Niang's actions, but saw Rong Niang calmly walked to the incense burner and lit the incense.
A puff of white smoke rose from the incense burner, and the familiar smell penetrated into the tip of Ji Wanrong's nose, making Ji Wanrong's heart tremble!
What is burning in this incense burner is the smell of that special ointment!
This ointment can confuse people's minds, and there is a whole box of it in Ji Wanrong's space.
Mo Jiecheng also obviously noticed something was wrong. He slowly turned his head, glanced at Ji Wanrong, and then held his breath.
Mo Jiecheng had the inner strength to hold his breath for a long time and pretend that nothing had happened, but Ji Wanrong could not.
Not only could Ji Wanrong not be able to hold his breath for a long time, but he was also under close surveillance by Rong Niang.
Even if he takes out the soothing Qingye Pill from the space, Rong Niang will be suspicious because the movement of the pill entrance is too big.
So Ji Wanrong suddenly took out the box of balm in the space, dug out a big spoonful, and held it in the palm of his hand.
She has already developed this ointment. Even if Rong Niang uses it frequently, she cannot resist the power of the ointment.
Even if Rong Niang wanted to confuse their minds, she would be dizzy by the smell of the ointment if she stayed in the same room with them.
This is a move that can kill a thousand enemies and damage yourself by eight hundred.
Sure enough, Ji Wanrong's movements aggravated the fragrance in the room and accelerated the effectiveness of the fragrance.
Rong Niang was in front of her because of the strong smell of ointment in the room, so she didn't notice that Ji Wanrong had done something about her. She just felt that she was also a little dizzy and couldn't hold on any longer.
Although she often uses this ointment, she is not completely immune to it. Rong Niang is very aware of the power of this ointment.
Seeing Mo Jiecheng and Ji Wanrong slumped on the chairs without saying a word, Rong Niang felt that the balm had an effect on them.
So she pinched her temples and stood up from her position: "Mrs. Qian, I suddenly have something important to do outside. Please wait here for a while. I'll be back soon."
After Rong Niang finished speaking, she stood up without hesitation and closed the door after going out, leaving no trace.
She planned to let the two people in the room stay in the room for a long time, completely losing their consciousness, and then enter the room again, extinguish the incense, make sure that she stayed awake, and then ask them some questions to get the answers she wanted.
Rong Niang has been working in this business for almost half her life, and has lived a life of licking blood with the tip of a knife. Naturally, she will not trust two people unconditionally and bring them to her secret base.
Even if that person is a subordinate who has been working for her for a long time, Rong Niang must test them again and again.
Just as Rong Niang was thinking about it, the little maid next to her spoke to Rong Niang in confusion.
"Sir, you were so cautious before, why did you bring them to the house where you usually work today?"
Rong Niang sneered: "She was my subordinate in the past. There has been a lot of commotion here recently, which has led to a shortage of manpower. I must cultivate trustworthy downlines to help me send a large number of people I want in a steady stream. Only then can I fulfill my plan.”
"So I took one step and came directly here. But don't worry, I have a way to test her. If they are people harboring evil intentions, they will know it right away, and they will not let her have an easy time."
"I have this ability. I can understand everything about others and know what they are thinking. No one in the world can decipher my tricks."
When the little maid heard this, her eyes widened for a moment, and her expression became extremely excited: "Have you already used that incense on them?"
Rong Niang nodded: "Not just the incense, but also other methods, a two-pronged approach."
"You still want to use that move on them?!" The little girl suddenly became very admired.
Rong Niang nodded: "Yes."
"Forget it if you use incense. That move of yours is so precious that you don't show it to others easily. It's been a long time since you used it. Now, just to test Mrs. Qian, are you going to use it like this?"
Rong Niang nodded again, with incomparable confidence and determination on her face: "Yes, for the sake of our great cause, we have to be on guard. With this, everything in the world will be invisible."
"If they have a problem, you will immediately bring soldiers and throw them to the third floor."
The maid nodded heavily.
