My Stepmother is Soft and Charming

One sentence made Mrs. Liu, the sister-in-law, a little dumbfounded.

But Gu Shaoyu and Du Jingyi agreed with his choice. The Duke's Mansion is not a gentle town or a place of wealth, so it is inevitable that he will see some jackals, tigers and leopards. If he just hides and doesn't face them at this moment, , I’m afraid there will be nothing we can do in the future.

Therefore, Du Jingyi personally took his sister-in-law Liu's arm and got on the carriage first. When he left, what was he thinking about Luoyuan people?

Why did such a strange person suddenly appear?

The carriage left Xiumei Village and returned to Gu's Ancestral Hall.

After all the trouble, everyone was hungry and had no intention of continuing to eat. Instead, Du Jingyi asked the cook here to make a few bowls of noodles and comforted them with a smile.

Eat as much as you can, and don't hurt your body for irrelevant people.

She was obviously the one who was assassinated, and she was the one who should be afraid, but now she was asked to comfort everyone. The eldest aunt was the first to stand up and said distressedly.

You kid, aren't you afraid? Worry about what we do, and you won't be hungry if you skip one meal.

After the words were spoken, Du Jingyi said comfortingly again.

Aren't I okay? Don't worry, auntie, eating well is the serious thing.

She really wanted to eat, but when she thought of the situation just now, she couldn't bring herself to eat, so she asked Gu Shaoyu.

Have you found out what happened?

Gu Shaoyu shook his head, but his expression as he looked out the window was solemn.

It is impossible for Luo Yuan to allow these people to carry out assassinations so arrogantly, so if this is the case, there is only one possibility: Luo Yuan was ambushed.

Ni Yang was sent by him to handle other matters, while Luo Principle had been active in Qingshui Town. The last time he sent him a message was one day ago. Logically speaking, there shouldn't be any problems.

The more he thought like this, the more uneasy Gu Shaoyu felt.

Luo Yuan has been following him for the longest time. He has been with him for so many years. On the surface, he is his deputy general and his personal follower, but in real terms, he is not his brother.

If something unexpected happened because of this matter, Gu Shaoyu didn't dare to think about what happened next.

Du Jingyi noticed his emotions, so he came forward and whispered comfortingly.

Vice General Luo Ji has his own destiny. General, don't be anxious. He is probably trapped by something.

Du Jingyi's words became a prophecy.

Here they were worried about Luo Yuan's whereabouts, while Luo Yuan, who had strayed into a ditch at the other end, was taken into the ear room of an underground palace along the dark and narrow corridor after being stepped on. He also injured his chest.

Therefore, the whole person was groggy, and I didn't know how long it took before I woke up.

He has also been fighting on the battlefield for many years, so he has some judgment about his injuries. At least he has two broken ribs.

Although he wouldn't die immediately, it was still very painful to move, so after his eyes adapted to the darkness, he simply gave himself a few pills to relieve the pain.

I originally wanted to bandage those scratched wounds, but when I fell into this place, I didn't know where to throw the bottle of hemostatic medicine I brought with me. I could only tear off my clothes and deal with it briefly, then scrawled. Wrapped up.

As long as it doesn't bleed, it won't endanger his life.

After all this was done, Luo Yuan took a long breath, opened the fire folding box and looked around.

The walls are smooth and square, and you can tell it is an ear room at a glance.

Isn't it true? Are you so unlucky? You can fall into the hole drilled by this tomb robber while walking?

He was really speechless as he asked the sky. He looked up at the dark, invisible sky and knew that it was not easy to climb up this tunnel.

So he started searching around, wanting to see if there were any tools or something left by the tomb robber nearby. At least there was something he could hold on to, so he could climb up. As a result, he walked away clutching his chest. Circle, nothing was found.

There are only two ways now, either he waits for death here, or he goes out of the ear room to try his luck. There may be a glimmer of hope, but he may also die in these underground agencies.

After all, he is not in this business, so how can he know the secret of avoiding traps?

Anyway, death is better than waiting here!

Gritting his teeth and stomping his feet, Luo Yuan left the ear room after resting for a moment and went deeper along the tomb passage.

They were extremely careful along the way, but did not encounter any danger along the way. This smoothness did not make Luo Yuan happy, but instead made him more and more fearful.

It looks like there's something scary ahead.

Therefore, his steps became more and more slow. He counted the time silently in his heart. It seemed that after walking for about half an hour, he saw a light ahead.

bright?

Is there light inside a tomb?

Thinking about it, he knew that it would definitely not be a good thing. Suddenly he remembered some ghost legends he had heard. He couldn't help but swallowed softly. Could it be that he had bumped into a mouse marriage?

I closed my eyes and adjusted my breath for a while, then picked up some gravel on the ground, then moved my steps and looked forward.

You don't know this, but Luo Yuan was frightened half to death.

There seems to be an altar arranged here, with more than ten copper tripods hanging in the middle, large and small, as if they were arranged according to some kind of formation, revealing a strange and strange yin and yang.

The bronze tripod in the middle was also painted gold, and it was obvious at first glance that it was the center of the altar. As for what was placed inside, Luo Yuan was not sure.

But for some reason, he always had a suspicion in his mind that this formation was not specially designed to harm their general, right?

Thinking of this, the wounds on his body no longer hurt and the bleeding stopped, as if he had a little more strength that he could not use up. He immediately decided to stay and take a look, so he hid in the darkness and just stayed there quietly. 's waiting.

Luo Yuan was injured, and he was not proficient in formations. Naturally, he would not rush forward rashly. If something was triggered and the enemy was alerted, that would be trouble.

Therefore, I took the most direct method and waited. I kept waiting here just to see if other people would come.

If so, he could eavesdrop on some secrets and then make plans.

As a habit of marching for many years, he always carried medicine and dry food with him. After stumbling down the road, the medicine was gone, but the dry food was well preserved.

Although there is no water, it is inevitable to choke when eating, but it is better than being hungry, so this stay lasts three days and three nights.

People outside are looking for him crazy, especially Ni Yang who was transferred back urgently. Although they always make jokes about Luo Yuan on weekdays, they are just jokes.
