Chapter 87

The pillar was more than ten feet high, about the thickness of two people hugging each other. It was painted with red lacquer and engraved with gold characters. But at this time, the top of the pillar seemed to be torn off by someone, and the whole pillar seemed to be covered by something. After vigorously sharpening, most of the lacquer and bronzing characters on it were 'wiped' off, leaving a mottled and tragic imprint on the column.

In addition, the glazed tiles on the top cover also have signs of new replacements, which are out of tune with the old colors. Everywhere shows that the place seems to have been damaged by war and reluctantly renovated.

The General's Mansion was indeed troubled by snakes before, and Yao Shouning also knew that it was because Lu Zhi angered the snake fairy clan in Nan'anling, so it was a demon.

But before that, in her inner imagination, the so-called snake rioting meant that the group of snakes were dispatched, and the people who harassed the general's mansion could not rest in peace, but looking at the scene in front of her, it was clearly destroyed by an extremely terrifying external force. The general snake group seems to be playing a small game.

Thinking of this, Yao Shouning felt a little uneasy, at this moment——

'Clang! '

As the voice sounded on the side of his ear, an extremely strange picture appeared in front of Yao Shouning.

The light died out, as if the day had turned into night in an instant.

Accompanied by a crisp sound like a tile falling to the ground, a 'rustling' sound suddenly came from overhead, as if something was squirming on the roof.

"snake!"

Such an idea suddenly flashed into Yao Shouning's mind.

'Whoa! ' A hissing sound rang in her ear immediately, causing her scalp to go numb.

Above the head, a pitch-black, hill-like terrifying shadow slowly rose from the roof, as if blending with the night.

As the shadows crawl, countless tiles slide down one after another, and the sound of 'bang bang, bang bang' can be heard without end, breaking the silence of the night.

"Who!"

A woman's low and stern voice sounded, accompanied by the harsh sound of falling tiles, a terrifying shadow wrapped around the red lacquered wooden pillar, the black snake meandered down, and the sawdust on the pillar fell like rain. , the shadow draws nearer;

And the lights in the house came on, and a sturdy woman in armor walked out slowly from the darkness with a silver gun in hand.

……

"Miss Yao, Miss Yao!"

Yao Shouning was being suppressed by the completely different air pressure on both sides, and when he saw that the war was about to break out——

A woman's voice strongly broke the illusion, passed into her mind, and pulled her out of the illusion.

In an instant, the night turned into day again, and the 'neighing' beside the ear and the 'banging' sound of falling tiles disappeared completely.

The air pressure of the hump quickly faded like a tide, and what appeared in front of her eyes was not the scene of being wrapped in black shadows, and the scene of 'Shushua' dropping sawdust, and the stench of vomit disappeared.

Instead, a female official wearing a jade-colored embroidered brocade robe looked at Yao Shouning with a dark and inexplicable look, and called her:
"Miss Yao?"

She was the so-called 'Sister Du' in the mouths of the female officials in the previous history.

It's just that she was clearly standing outside the gate of the main hall, how could she appear in front of her eyes?
Yao Shouning came back to his senses and found that he was very close to her. He was startled in a trance, and subconsciously wanted to step back.

Just taking a step back, Liu's hand was pulled tightly. It seemed that when she fell into an illusion just now, Liu's pulled her forward.

"Why are you so unrepentant, child?"

Liu Shi was a little worried, and reached out and squeezed her palm: "Why is it cold, is it uncomfortable?"

From the moment she stepped into the courtyard of the main house, her expression became a little out of place, as if she was lost, and she came up with something out of nowhere.

"Mom, I'm fine."

Yao Shouning stopped his head by talking to Liu Shi to block the fear in his heart.

She had hallucinations in front of her again just now, but with the previous experience and the traces left at the scene, she was sure that what she had just 'seen' was the traces of the previous war.

The night before the Dingguo Shenwu General's Mansion, the so-called snake incident turned out not to be a small snake, but the terrifying giant python in the dream last night.

Although Yao Shouning was forcibly awakened before she could see the true face of the python, her heart was still beating violently at the thought of falling into an illusion and facing the oppression of the python.

Now that he knew the whole story, looking at the mottled pillars and the newly replaced glazed tiles, Yao Shouning couldn't tell the fear.

The grandmother surnamed Du was looking at her with a strange look, as if she was a little curious about what she had been in a daze before.

Fortunately, she didn't ask anything. After confirming that Yao Shouning was all right, she invited the mother and daughter to enter the hall.

"The princess will be here later, please sit down for a moment."

Yao Shouning hesitated for a moment, and followed the voice of Du Momo, raised her skirt and stepped up the steps.

When she passed by the side of the red pillar, she was a little scared, as if she was still in an illusion, and there was a huge black shadow on the top of her head, threatening to approach.

She entered the threshold almost at an escape speed, and was a little farther away from the wooden post.

I don't know if it was because Yao Shouning 'saw' in the illusion, an extraordinary figure came out with a gun, and the scene of fighting against the black python gave her a certain sense of security, or because the house had already been burned. Because of the charcoal stove, after Yao Shouning entered the house, she always felt that the whole room was warm, dispelling the chills all over her body.

The servants of the General's Mansion brought hot tea to the mother and daughter, and Liu Shi politely took it and carefully looked at the layout of the hall.

Logically speaking, this place should be extremely safe. After all, when she came here, she had seen armor guards standing guard around. They were heavily guarded and guarded the entire General Mansion like an iron barrel.

But Yao Shouning felt a little uneasy after seeing the illusion.

Coupled with the nightmare she had last night, she couldn't calm down at all.

His eyelids twitched wildly, always feeling that something big would happen today.

"mother……"

She couldn't sit still, her buttocks moved, she was about to get up and talk with her teacup in her hands. When she wanted to persuade Mrs. Liu to go back earlier, she heard Mammy Du instruct someone to prepare some melon and fruit snacks.

"Ms. Yao is young, she should like to eat snacks."

Mama Du's words just interrupted Yao Shouning's calling, she said with a smile:
"The mansion happens to have oranges as a gift from the emperor, sweet and sour, it was my favorite food in the past..."

Speaking of this, she changed her words, and the smile on her face gradually converged, turning into sighs and worries:

"It's a pity that the prince was seriously injured and has not woken up yet. I don't know how long it will take to eat this orange."

When Liu Shi heard this, he also sighed, with a worried look on his face:

"Is Shizi seriously injured? Why hasn't he woken up yet?"

After all, she is a life-saving benefactor, so she is naturally a little concerned:
"Is it because of snake venom?"

Yao Shouning knew clearly in his heart, where is the snake venom, it is clearly the ghost of the snake demon.

She was a little fidgety and moved twice. Liu Shi remembered that she had called herself before, and turned to ask her:

"what happened?"

Madam Du also seemed to be quite concerned, and turned her head:

"Is something uncomfortable?"

"……fine."

Yao Shouning hesitated and shook his head.

Although she felt that a major event would happen in the General's Mansion today, and wanted to flee for her life and leave the place quickly, but Mammy Du had mentioned Lu Zhi, she thought of the scene in her dream last night, and naturally it was not easy to leave again.
