"Bah!"

Xiao Jin slapped the tea cup on the table and glanced at him coldly and arrogantly, "Can't you talk to me carefully if you have something to say?"

"Miss Jin, I'm sorry." Xingyuan rubbed his hands in panic, speechless for a moment.

"Show me what you got?"

"Look at it!"

Qi Lan grabbed it and his eyes fell on the yellowed paper.

The handwriting is slightly blurry, but you can tell it's old at a glance.

However, the line of small words left on the paper corresponded exactly to this house.

"This piece of paper was written by Uncle Zhu?!"

A strange light flashed in Mrs. Ye's eyes.The secret that has been hidden in my heart for many years will finally be revealed to the juniors today.

Well, all the children of the Zhu family are here.Everything they would hear about the house from their father would be left to her.

"Xiaolan, help me pour tea."

Xingyuan took the cup with trembling hands. He clearly drank good tea, but his tongue felt numb.

He took a small sip, thoughtfully.

Put the teapot.Qilan felt inexplicably nervous when she heard "tick-tock" and "tick-tock" coming from her wrist.

I had a vague feeling that my mother was about to announce some big news, good or bad.

In the anxiety, a drop of cold sweat fell on the young man's forehead.

"In front of Qi Jiang and the Zhu brothers and sisters, I will start from what happened 15 years ago-"

Mrs. Ye opened her head gently.He quietly looked at Xingyuan.

I saw him sitting in a chair, the anger on his face gradually disappeared, and his mood became slightly calmer, not as angry as before.

Juanjuan pressed hard on his heart to prevent his heart from beating too hard.

When his father passed away, he had difficulty breathing, but he insisted on seeing Qi Lan.

Taking advantage of the last bit of strength left, he gave the watch he had worn for more than 20 years to this strange boy.

Not only Qi Lan was surprised, Juan Juan and Xing Yuan were also extremely shocked.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival, she casually asked the second wife of the Gu family in the study.The father cherished the box containing the woman's nails, but said calmly that he was just a theater fan.

She believed this reason.

Until a strange address accidentally found in his father's study broke this long-standing peaceful state of mind.

The uneasiness and fear she carefully concealed were seen by Mrs. Ye.

"This house was built with my savings from singing after I left Gu Mansion. Mr. Zhu is the only person who knows the address."

"Second Madam, where is the palace where you lived previously in the capital?"

Juanjuan thought of some documents about the royal family that she had borrowed from the museum before. There were at least fifty or sixty princes recorded.

If this former Qing princess could tell the location of the mansion, he would be able to find the person more accurately.

Mrs. Ye sighed and was silent for a moment before saying:

"The house I once lived in was burned down by fire in the chaos. A pool of running water was left on the old site, which did not freeze in winter. Officials bought the land at a high price and built a new building. It is on Wenmo Road."

Lin Mi's shoulders trembled slightly, and his bright eyes widened.

On Wenmo Road, if there is a place with running water, isn't it Linzhai?

The water in the garden is extremely magical.

It's cold in summer, so there's no need to hold a fan when standing nearby.

In winter, warm white mist rises from the water, and it doesn't feel cold at all when you put your hand in it.It can also be used directly as a hot spring.

She couldn't help but ran over, pulled Mrs. Ye's sleeve and asked loudly:
"Are you talking about Lin House? That's my home!" "Yes," Mrs. Ye nodded, looking at the excited girl with gentle eyes, "Actually, there is a secret passage here that was built more than 100 years ago. , leading directly to Lin’s house.”

Qi Lan suddenly remembered that among the floors in the house, there was one place that could move.

The position where he stood was exactly the same board where the bronze mirror and crystal were found.

In addition to the rapid breathing, there is also a "squeaking" sound caused by accidentally stepping on it.

Mrs. Ye stopped telling the story.

Suddenly, everyone in the room looked over.

The young man was embarrassed and wanted to hide it, but he couldn't move.A pair of feet seemed to be frozen in place.

"Mom, I didn't mean it."

"Open it in front of everyone."

There was no blame in the mother's tone.Qilan's tight strings also relaxed a little, and he bent down and peeled off the wooden board.

A head of blond hair quietly emerged from behind the cabinet.

Chris stood up in a tangled mood.

Ever since they discovered something under the floor with Lin Mi and the others last time, Yang Niu'er has also been quite confused about Mrs. Ye's origin.

Just now she heard that the secret passage leads directly from this house to Lin's house, and familiar scenes kept flooding in her mind:
Aren't Wenmo Road and the huts by the river, together with the abandoned and haunted old church, on the same line?There is a cave in the old church cemetery where a large number of vampire bats live.

The Bai Family Medical Clinic, which is next to the cemetery, also caught a fat, fat rat with glowing green eyes.

It’s so embarrassing when you think about it.
When Zhu Xingyuan came, she was the first to want to hide.

Although his leaving without saying goodbye brought some disappointment, Yang Niu'er had taken time to calm down and no longer wanted to be sad about it.

Chen Xing, who was on the second floor, sweated secretly when he saw the blond girl's back.

He was afraid that Chris would be irritated when she saw Xingyuan.

As a man, he had already smelled something strange in the way Xiao Jin looked at her from a distance: his fiery gaze seemed to be glued to her body, and his eyes never blinked.

At the moment, he didn't dare to run downstairs rashly.

With a sudden move, he smiled flatteringly at the silent woman beside him:

"I'll go down and see what Xiaolan got. If it's a rare antique, I can write two good articles during the winter vacation. If the teacher is happy, he can save me from digging graves at the archaeological site."

"Well, I'm interested too, let's go together."

Mo Qianqian took his arm and made him itch all over.

At the age of 20, Chen Xing had never been held so tightly by a member of the opposite sex, and his face turned red to the base of his ears.

"Ahem, don't be like this. There are a lot of eyes downstairs. Let's not overdo it, okay?"

She pinched it and stopped talking.His eyes narrowed, clearly warning him to stop playing tricks.

Unexpectedly, this wife from the future is good at "mind reading" and can guess his little thoughts.

Chen Xing finally obeyed and let her hold his arm, walking stiffly downstairs.

Mo Qianqian tilted his head and noticed a bronze mirror at Qi Lan's feet.

The mirror surface is as smooth as jade, and the moire lines carved on the edge are smooth.Each of the southeast and northwest is inlaid with an jade bead, which is extremely exquisite.

After spending several years learning how to identify antiques from her adoptive father, she has already developed a sharp eye.

After a brief glance, it was concluded that this bronze mirror was more than just a luxurious ornamental item.

The middle of the mirror handle is hollowed out. If you look at it from another angle, it is a key to unlock the secret room.

"The Baiyang Building on Wenmo Road has been a tragedy since the day it was built-" Mo Qianqian shook his head.She understood that she was helpless against the coming storm.

"Qianqian, you can't talk nonsense," Chen Xing interrupted her seriously, "Ms. Lin's family was framed. Once we find out the mastermind behind it, they will be vindicated."
