Chapter 319 The sarcophagus is strange!
The tomb chamber is like a closed box, and there is no exit at all.
Even after Chen Mu had improved his cultivation, he used his powerful spiritual power to bombard him, and at most he had drilled a cave of more than two meters.
At this moment, they had the illusion of being trapped in the middle of the mountains.
"Strange, are we just about to be trapped here?"
Chen Mu scratched his head and smiled bitterly.
After carefully checking the gaps in the cave wall of the tomb chamber, Bai Xianyu gently shook his head: "There is no gap, both the top of the cave and the ground are solid, and even the gods cannot open it."
"Can you, is this a illusion?"
Yun Zhiyue's face was full of suspicion.
Chen Mu shook his head and said, "It's definitely not an illusion. I guess after the little girl disappeared, the secret door was blocked. There must be some secret doors in this room that can be opened."
"But we've checked all corners several times."
Yun Zhiyue smiled bitterly. "With my cultivation and sister Bai's cultivation, if there is really a secret door in this place, it is impossible for her to discover it."
At this time, Su Qiaoer suddenly asked: "Have you checked the sarcophagus?"
Sarcophagus?
All three of them were stunned and turned their heads to look at the sarcophagus placed in the middle of the tomb.
Chen Mu's face changed drastically.
He clearly remembered that the sarcophagus had been opened before, but why was it suddenly closed again? Who closed it?
A strong sense of uneasiness emerged in Chen Mu's heart.
...
It was deep in the evening, and the magistrate's house was quiet. Even the hall, which was often brightly lit on weekdays, was rarely in a dim atmosphere.
Since Mrs. Du's death, the house has become extremely quiet.
The maids were careful when walking.
Although everyone's face was solemn, it was difficult to see any sadness on the faces of these servants.
In the past, Mrs. Du beat and scolded her servants at will, and complained and cursed her.
Now that Mrs. Du has been brutally killed, the happiest thing is undoubtedly the servants. They are mournful on the surface, but they are praised behind their backs and even secretly mocked that God has given retribution.
In the study, Lord Du sat quietly at the desk.
He is still wearing official uniforms.
The swaying candlelight made his face dark and dark, and he couldn't see any emotions clearly, but his eyes flashed from time to time with faint light.
Du Piwu held an exquisite pearl phoenix hairpin in his hand.
This is often worn by his wife, Mrs. Du.
It doesn't exist when you see things and think of people. There is even no sadness in his eyes, but the remaining ones are confusion and indifference.
Swish!
Suddenly, the candlelight flashed.
There was an extra figure in the room, hidden in the shadow corner.
"Why, my wife is very sad when she dies?"
The mysterious man in the corner snorted a few cold and tone, his tone was cold and deeply permeable, and his bones were permeable.
Du Piwu played with the pearl hairpin casually, without any disgust in his eyes, and said lightly: "It is rare to have a wife who is compatible with Yimo. If you die, you will naturally be sad. You cattle, horses, ghosts and animals who have lived in the Hall of Hell for many years will not understand it."
The mysterious man sneered: "Then I have really gained knowledge. I didn't expect that our Lord Du is also a person who values love and righteousness."
Du Piwu said lightly: "Tell me, what's going on this time?"
The mysterious man said: "The Suzaku envoy took people to Wuchen Village."
Du Piwudao: "I know."
"Then do you know what she did when she suddenly took someone to Wuchen Village to search?"
The mysterious man asked.
The sad pile of red candles fell on the table, as if they were the blood and tears of the beauty. Du Piwu was so shocked that he forgot to answer the other party's question.
It was not until the other party was impatient that he said quietly: "I don't know."
Du Piwu really doesn't know.
He is not a god.
The mysterious man snorted coldly: "It seems that Lord Du is used to enjoying the blessings and does not have a sense of crisis. I am afraid that this official position will be lost one day, so Lord Du won't care."
"If I lose my official position, you will be more anxious than me."
Du Piwu spoke sarcasticly.
The mysterious man was silent for a long time and said slowly: "You are right. If the prefect of Dongzhou City is lost, we will definitely be very anxious. However, if Lord Du is lost, we will at most burn paper money to send it off. Because there are many Lord Du behind him waiting to take over your shift."
These threatening words added a bit of tension to the already stalemate atmosphere.
The bead hairpin in Du Piwu's hand was broken into two pieces.
He looked up and stared at the mysterious man hiding in the darkness in the corner, like an angry lion, with a sensation of pressure on his body.
But in the end, his attitude softened a little and he said slowly: "I don't know what the Suzaku Iron and others are looking for. I only know that the Suzaku Iron and found a secret passage during the search, which has not appeared yet."
"No wonder the underworld guards of the Suzaku Hall are still searching. It turns out that their master is missing."
The mysterious man thought something.
He suddenly said, "Mr. Du, don't you think this is a good opportunity?"
"I want to assassinate the Suzaku Envoy again?"
Du Piwu raised a sarcasm at the corner of his mouth. "You failed to assassinate last time, but I was surprised by the fact that I was able to instigate Zhuque to rebel against the people around me. Unfortunately, the person I was looking for was too poor."
"That's a warning, not an assassination."
The mysterious man's tone was cold. "Besides, you promised to assassinate at that time, but in the end he was still timid."
"Assassinating the Suzaku Envoy, how many people in the world are not cowardly. Do you think the masters are walking all over the ground?"
The broken bead hairpins of Du Pi general were spliced together, frowned and narrowed his eyes, "This time, the sudden disappearance of the Suzaku Matsu may also be a trap, and he will arrest the assassin."
"Use yourself as bait?"
"I can't bear to bear the child and can't trap the wolf." Du Piwu said coldly. "Besides, that woman is a cruel person."
Hearing this, the mysterious man fell silent.
This is indeed worth considering.
After all, Zhuque was so good that he suddenly disappeared into Wuchen's village, and no matter how he looked, he felt strange.
"I'll still have to give it a try."
The mysterious man tapped the table with his fingers a few times, and his eyes in the darkness showed a sharp light. "Wuchen Village is not an ordinary village, maybe it can really keep her there forever."
"What are you going to let me do."
Du Piwu simply asked the other party about the purpose of coming.
The mysterious man threw a secret note and landed it on the desk.
Du Piwu opened the secret note, was silent for a while and said softly: "I can try it, but whether it works depends on luck."
"good."
The mysterious man smiled. "In addition, the Suzaku seemed to have a close maid around him, and he had a good relationship with her."
"Do you want to kidnap her?" Du Piwu frowned.
The mysterious man shook his head: "The kidnapping is too variable. I mean, find a killer and kill her. In this way, even if Zhuque can safely come out of Wuchen Village, she can teach her a lesson."
"Killer..."
Du Piwu stared at the other party with a suspicious look.
He sarcastically said, "How many of your killers are reliable? How can you be a personal maid by Zhuque? How can you be very weak?"
"Then hire other killers."
The mysterious man lowered his voice. "I plan to let two killers assassinate at the same time, one is the vulture of the 'Sky Blood Sea' killer organization, and the other is to choose a stronger killer for the sake of insurance, so the chips will be higher."
"Oh, then who is this master?"
Du Piwu was very curious.
The mysterious man said word by word: "The member of the killer of the Heavenly Court, Hongzhuer."
