Light the candlesticks, and everything you see is completely preserved from the original furnishings.It used to be Hu Wan's boudoir, her female celebrity, her calligraphy and paintings, the rare ancient books she hadn't comprehended yet, and the pile of yellowed study notes and prescriptions on the desk.Hu Wan looked at the scene in front of her lonely, shrouded in the illusion of never leaving, as if she was still sleeping peacefully in this room just yesterday.

Approaching the desk, he casually took out a stack of prescriptions from the stack, and inadvertently saw a piece of brand-new paper under the inkstone, which was quite different in color from the prescription in his hand.Hu Wan was quite surprised, lifted the inkstone, took out the paper and spread it out, only to see a few lines of characters with fangs and claws, like hideous and terrifying monsters, jumping out of the paper.

There is no doubt that such scribbled and expressive handwriting was written by Baili Miyin.Hu Wan once teased her that her handwriting was unsightly. She argued that it was because the priests mainly practiced coffin writing, so the Chinese characters they wrote were also crooked like ghost-drawing symbols.If you don't take the trouble to distinguish her words word by word, it will be extremely difficult for others to understand.

Letter: Carved beams and painted pillars in Qingsi, sparse shadows reflect the empty house, candles flicker like floating mist, weeping and dumb, the old man is gone, and the love is deep in the bone.

Pressing the paper back under the inkstone, Hu Wan stared at the candlestick in a daze, with a thousand thoughts and chaos intertwined in her heart, but she couldn't get a clear idea.

There is deep love between the lines, but the heart-piercing arrow that was slaughtered back then was by no means a miss.Baili Miyin's bloody smile is still vivid in her memory. The meandering river of blood was like cracks in the ground, tormenting her like a nightmare for so many years, and all the good things were shattered overnight.It is Baili Miyin who destroyed her like this, but writes about weeping and lovesickness in front of her desk.

As the night drew on, Hu Wan tossed and turned in a light sleep all night, her mind was filled with the words under the inkstone, and she repeatedly pondered inwardly, feeling confused.

The forest in the early morning brings clear dew, under the rising sun, floating shadows are floating on the green branches and leaves, and the breeze is blowing, crumbling.The sparrows came out of their nests and flapped their wings to greet each other, and the forest suddenly became lively, full of vitality like a dazzling painting.It was originally a land of beauty and beauty, but it encountered perilous crises. Hu Wan walked through the camphor forest with deep emotion.

Walking around in a circle, the thin clothes were stained with morning dew for no reason, and they were slightly damp.Hu Wan suddenly felt the chill hit her, suppressed a light cough, and immediately lost interest and wanted to go back to Pan Thatched Cottage.

"Baili Miyin allowed the remnants of the Uli tribe to set foot on the territory like this. It seems that Miss Hu is not easy."

Hu Wan followed the prestige, but saw the middle-aged man was modest and elegant, wearing a green jacket made him more concise and lively, although his words were not very friendly, he had a bright smile on his face.Hu Wan recognized the person as Baili Nan, and calling her a remnant of the Uri tribe showed that he had malicious intentions.Hu Wan didn't care about this, but vaguely felt that he was also alienated and out of harmony with Baili Miyin, which was puzzling. "Sect Master Baili?"

"Sovereign? Haha... Miss Hu doesn't know something. The Bunun tribe is now covered by Baili Miyin with one hand, so there is no suzerain. I am just a puppet, useless." Baili Nan narrowed his eyes slightly. Eyebrows and eyes full of calculations, she looked at Hu Wan and said with a sinister smile: "Since Miss Hu is here, how about doing justice for me?"

"Forgive the rift between you and I can't do anything. I still have important matters to attend to, so I'm not here." Hu Wan probably realized the danger, so she hastily said goodbye, but it was too late.Immediately afterwards, he felt pain in the back of his neck, suddenly felt dizzy, and gradually lost consciousness.

The spring is cold and cold, the banks of the trickling streams, and the willows are covered with new buds.An elegant and graceful figure stood proudly, with a soft smile hidden behind the willow branches, and her lips parted to speak to Hu Wan.Hu Wan smiled, walked towards her and called out, "Ayin, why are you so far away from me, I can't even hear you."

Hu Wan has been walking for a long time within sight, but Baili Miyin is like an unreachable horizon, always separated by such a long distance.Looking at Baili Miyin who was smiling and whispering not far away, Hu Wan suddenly felt lost, and hurried towards her, panting, "Ayin, can you come here? I...I'm so tired from running. "

Everything in front of her eyes slowly disappeared, and Hu Wan looked around, but Baili Miyin was nowhere to be found.The boundless sense of weightlessness like falling into a sinking abyss surged from all directions, and at the same time, Baili Miyin's voice was clearly in my ears. "Wan'er, everything is fate, and you can't help yourself at all."

Waking up suddenly, Hu Wan opened her eyes, and the unfamiliar environment reminded her of what she had faced.Sitting up tired, Hu Wan couldn't help coughing, folded her arms and looked around, and realized that she was in a closed square stone room.The three protruding candlesticks on the stone wall were glowing with faint candlelight. Hu Wan felt that the damp and cold were unbearable, and her thin body couldn't bear it, so she couldn't help shivering.

The stone room was empty except for the cold and smooth stone platform under her body.There is a candlestick on each of the three stone walls, which is about the height of a person. The base is carved with a lion-like lion. Sitting on it and looking up, the other side of the stone wall is empty.She didn't know why Baili Nan imprisoned her here, but she knew that she couldn't sit still at this time.Carefully looking at the layout of this stone room, Hu Wan thought deeply, guessing that the entrance and exit are located on the wall without candlesticks, and the stone door weighs a thousand catties, so there must be a hidden mechanism to control it.

No matter how smooth the stone gate and the stone wall are polished, there should be a seam no matter how tight the seam is, but the stone wall of this wall seems to be a seamless one.Hu Wan slumped against the wall, her face scorched, staring at the three candlesticks helplessly.Since there is no exit from this wall, we have to look for it from the other three stone walls one by one, and the three regular stone walls look the same, and it doesn't look like there is an exit at all.

She didn't know how long she had been in a coma, and she felt restless when she thought of going to the ancestral hall to perform acupuncture at noon.Changchi Taoist is not good at acupuncture, if she is trapped here, Baili Miyin will definitely burn the patient in consideration of the overall situation, so as not to cause accidents and harm others.Clearly accepted Baili Miyin's entrustment, but still allowed the patient to suffer the cruel and brutal pain. Thinking of this, Hu Wan's heart felt like an ant's nest.

Not daring to relax for a moment, I walked around under the candlestick and accidentally found the murals carved on the wall. The lines are simple and rough, but the craftsmanship of the stone carving craftsmen is not flattering.The place where the light reaches is still vaguely discernible, Hu Wan glanced roughly and felt familiar, but didn't care to study it carefully at the moment.After groping and exploring the three walls, Hu Wan sat back on the stone platform with a dejected expression, looked at the suanni candlestick looking up to the sky and thought for a long time, thinking that the candle wax could burn for so long, and the stone room could not be airtight, otherwise the air would have burned out long ago.Besides, Baili Nan tried his best to imprison her here, so that she would not be suffocated to death.Following Suan Ni and looking up, a stone beast with angry eyes was embedded upside down in the top corner of the stone room and came into Hu Wan's eyes, baring its teeth in the dark corner with extremely hideous eyes.Hu Wan was caught off guard and broke out in a cold sweat, but noticed that the stone beast at the top corner was hollow, and a faint light was faintly seeping in from the grinning mouth.

Hu Wan suddenly realized that the air in the stone chamber was circulated through the body hollowed out by the stone beast.However, the exit should not be on the top, that is too unreasonable, and there are no clues on the four walls.When he cast his eyes on the floor tiles with a glimmer of hope, there was a dull bang in the stone room, and as the floor tiles slowly moved away, a stone step suddenly appeared under the floor tiles.

"Did Miss Hu sleep peacefully on the coffin these two days?" Bai Linan walked up the steps leisurely, holding an exquisite sachet in his hand, and smiled at Hu Wan.

"What?" Hu Wan staggered back when she heard the words, looking at the stone platform in horror, her spine felt chills.The stone coffin was nearly nine feet long and three feet wide. The overall outline fell straight to Zhouzheng.She fell asleep on the coffin for two days, the patients in the ancestral hall must have been tortured, Taoist Changchi and Wei Feng must have been exhausted, and they were digging three feet to find her.Hu Wan looked at Baili Nan coldly and said in a low voice, "What kind of place is this? What are you doing to keep me here?"

"Shhhhhh... Don't get angry, girl Hu. If you want to blame it, you can blame Baili Miyin for being too disobedient. You have to help me teach her."

"I am a remnant of the Uri clan, and death is not a pity for you. If you use me as a threat, I am afraid you will not be able to get what you want." Hu Wan snorted coldly: "She didn't show mercy to me back then, so what now? Will be at the mercy of others."

"Oh? Come on, just open the sachet and have a look. I bought it from her with a lock of your black hair." Bai Linan smiled sinisterly, handed the sachet to Hu Wan, and said quietly "Just look at whether this business is profitable or negative, and you will know whether she has a deep or shallow affection for you."

Hu Wan glanced down at the ragged ends of her hair, and took the sachet anxiously.As soon as Fang opened it, a bloody finger rolled down from the pouch to her palm. The unsuspecting Hu Wan immediately turned pale with fright, and threw the severed finger away, her hands trembling uncontrollably.

"A lock of black hair can exchange for one of her little fingers, but you still think I can't shake her?" Bai Linan looked excited, and said with a half-smile: "Interesting, when she walked through the corpse pile and insisted on looking for your body, I Then I feel that she is very special to you. Hahaha... As expected, it is wonderful!"

Hu Wan's heart was already in turmoil, staring blankly at the blood-stained severed finger on the floor tiles, the combined grief and anger clogged her veins, the pain was like ants biting the bone, and it couldn't be worse.Hu Wan knew that he wanted Baili Miyin's finger just as a tentative act, if she didn't give it, he would have no leverage to blackmail her, and there was no point in locking up the useless Hu Wan.Baili Miyin had always been calm and self-reliant, how could he fail to see through his schemes, and compromised with him, chopping off his little finger.It was a finger, she thought it was the black hair on the head, the gecko's tail, it would grow again if it was broken.

Hu Wan stared at Baili Nan with tears in her eyes, and said angrily, "Tiger poison doesn't eat children, but she is your daughter, why are you treating her so cruelly?"

"No, I'm just a brother-in-law who was covetously stared at by the Baili clan and had to raise her. Her sudden birth took away my priesthood that originally belonged to me, but I have to compromise, isn't it enough?" Baili Nan was as calm as gossiping, but it made people feel sinister and treacherous.

"Since you resent her, why did you save her when she accidentally ate the Shura fruit ten years ago?" Hu Wan felt suspicious, thinking that Baili Nan's concerned expression back then was not like acting on the occasion.

"She can pave a bright road for me, how can I let her die." Baili Nan bowed to Hu Wan and pretended to be respectful: "Speaking of it, it is thanks to Miss Hu, after ten years Come to help me again, you are my nobleman from Bailinan."

As good luck makes people, everything started when Baili Miyin was rescued ten years ago.Hu Wan probably saved a devil. It was not enough for God to destroy her family. Being in trouble now is another kind of punishment.If Ren Baili Miyin was wiped out in ashes back then, why would there be so many entanglements in front of him now?

As soon as Baili Nan left, Hu Wan searched the stone chamber in detail, but found nothing in the end.She was worried that this stone room was a one-way mechanism, and she could only operate the secret door from the outside, so she would be unable to escape.Unsure of how Baili Nan would deal with Baili Miyin, Hu Wan became very worried at the thought of the amputated finger, but could only sit and wait for death.

The suanni candlestick was always on, and Hu Wan sat in the corner with her knees hugged, coughing more and more frequently, looking at the coffin in the middle, she was a little distracted and unable to concentrate.When she was drowsy, she suddenly remembered that Baili Nan had said that she had been sleeping here for two days, Fang felt very strange, she was supposed to be knocked out, and she should wake up within two hours.Hu Wan couldn't help wondering what was wrong, she just woke up and felt sleepy again.

Qiang cheered up and stood up, raised his head and inadvertently looked at the stone beast hanging upside down, and found the clue at this glance.I saw green smoke coming out of the stone beast's dilated nostrils, indistinctly curling up like a silkworm's silk, in the dim light, it's really hard to detect unless you look carefully.Hu Wan Linglong thought about it, and immediately concluded that the smoke was unusual, maybe it was similar to the incense that calms the mind and sleep, but it is tasteless.Already a prisoner of Baili Nan, he took great pains to make the quiet Hu Wan fall asleep, maybe he was afraid that she would escape, otherwise it would be meaningless.Hu Wan thought, if he really has this level of worry, then there must be a mechanism to open the secret door hidden in the stone room.

Looking around, the murals that had been neglected before caught Hu Wan's attention.Looking at it in the dim light, the lines vary in thickness and criss-cross, and the concave intersections where they meet seem to be deliberately protruded and chiseled with a heavy hammer.A total of 28 intersections are scattered around the Suan Ni candlesticks, resembling the thunder pool array in the shooting range on the north side of Minnow Mountain, no wonder it looks familiar at first glance.On the stone wall facing the inner and outer coffins in the middle, Fuxi's Eight Diagrams are chiseled and painted, perhaps due to the poor craftsmanship of the craftsman, at first glance they thought it was a spider's web.Against the background of the gossip diagram, the flaming candlestick is like a blood spider waiting for an opportunity.On the other side of the mural, Hu Wan couldn’t make out the eyebrows. The lines and outlines looked like tall and upright mountains. The maze made her eyes dim.

As time passed, Hu Wan became more and more tired and sleepy, her legs were so weak that she almost couldn't support her body.In a daze, he hurriedly supported the end of the coffin, and suddenly felt that his palm was sunken, and the stone chamber suddenly heard a dull sound.Fanran woke up startled and looked back, the stone steps reappeared under the cracked floor tiles.

Hu Wan breathed a sigh of relief, and took a step towards the stone steps, already struggling.The stone steps can't be seen at a glance, and the candlelight can only reflect a small part of the class under the floor tiles, and the rest is hidden in the inextricable darkness. I don't know how long it is and where it leads.Hu Wan was a little undecided, her fear of the dark and the unknown was far greater than the coffin in the stone room where there were no remains.If it wasn't for Baili Miyin who was kidnapped, she would rather sleep on the coffin.

Trembling and walking down, the darkness gradually engulfed her. She wanted to get out of here as soon as possible, but she could only feel her way down slowly with fear.After a long time, the sight got used to it a little bit, and the outline of the stairs could be vaguely seen. Just as Hu Wan's heart was hanging on the ground, her foot speed unconsciously accelerated.After a while, the stone steps disappeared, replaced by a long and narrow passageway, with exquisite paintings on both sides of the passageway, very similar to the wall carvings in the stone room.Hu Wan slowed down and looked around, but saw that the murals were rich in color, fast in rhythm, and the characters depicted were extremely vivid, as if they had come alive under her nose, and a long line of sacrificial ceremonial guards was grandly laid out.

According to the mural, a group of extraordinary people are surrounded by a large crowd. Two of them hold a baby and accept the worship of the crowd. Afterwards, the crowd dispersed, leaving only this group of people sitting cross-legged.Immediately after the dark clouds circled the sun and the moon, an elder held a chisel in one hand and a hammer in the other to file open the caps of these people's spirits one by one, stuffed yellow talismans into them, and then poured some kind of solution.Seeing this, Hu Wan couldn't help being terrified. Such a cruel method, even if it is not witchcraft, no one will believe it.She didn't dare to look down any more, she pursed her lips tightly, and her lowered eyebrows and eyes were full of thoughts.Everything in it is too bizarre, beyond her cognition, she can't help but feel suspicious, the Golden Leech Gu, which has such a sinister and treacherous wind, can come from here.Baili Miyin has something to do with this place, otherwise how would the wall engravings in the stone chamber explain it.

A lot of doubts came one after another, and the myriad of threads in my mind couldn't be connected logically, Hu Wan only felt depressed and uncomfortable.

"Hey, my little ancestor, can you make some noise when you walk? You haven't been knocked down by those evil things, but you were scared to death first. It's not worth it." Li Tang sighed. The sigh came from the end of the passage, and it was extremely clear.

Hu Wan turned her head quickly when she heard the sound, and the other end of the passage was empty, she could only hear his voice but not see him, but just hearing his voice was enough to make her extremely happy.Immediately, without thinking, he walked forward quickly, but unexpectedly, his feet were empty, and a strong sense of weightlessness swept over him in an instant, and he fell down.His brain went blank, and before he could utter a scream, he suddenly felt his body fall into a softness.It took a long time for Hu Wan to recover from the fright, secretly thankful that the trap was not deep, and the opening above was within reach when standing up.Hu Wan was about to sit up, only to realize that she couldn't move at all, the sticky and slippery touch of her hands made her scalp tingle, and she could faintly smell a fishy smell.As if stuck, no matter how hard she struggled, it would be useless. From the corner of the eye, there seemed to be a huge net under her body, and the mesh was thicker than a thumb.The current situation does not allow her to calm down and think of a way, so she had to call out to Taoist Li Tang loudly, hoping that he could hear him and follow the sound to rescue her.
