Chapter 42
However, Xie Ling left Xuanhu Hall and went straight to the Su Mansion in the south of the city. When he arrived at the gate of the Su Mansion, he suppressed his anxiety, calmed down, straightened his robes, took a deep breath, and tried his best to make his With his usual expression on his face, he walked forward and knocked on the door of Su Mansion.
Four years later, he stood outside the gate of the Su Mansion again. He was in a completely different mood than the last time. Xie Ling held back his anxiety, clenched his fists in his sleeves, and forced himself to wait patiently.
Not long after, the concierge came over and opened the door, still through the crack in the door. The man glanced outside and asked, "Who is it?"
Xie Ling bowed her hands politely and said, "I'm sorry to bother you, big brother. I'm a classmate of Master Su. I have something important to do with him. Could you please help me inform him?"
After hearing this, the porter looked him up and down and saw that although he was not very old, he behaved politely and dressed like a scholar. He couldn't help but believe him, so he opened the door and said, "In that case, you go first." Come, I will inform you."
Xie Ling bowed her head and said, "Thank you."
After the concierge let him in, he said: "You wait here, I will go and report it, don't run around."
"I understand, thank you."
Seeing that the porter disappeared around the corner with a lantern, Xie Ling raised his feet and walked away. He had a good memory. Even after so many years, he still remembered the architectural layout of Su Mansion, and the journey went smoothly.
Xie Ling looked around and heard footsteps coming from ahead. As the dim light of the lantern slowly came over, he ducked and hid behind the pillars. Then, a little maid came over with a lantern.
Xie Ling stepped forward, and when he wasn't paying attention, he covered the other person's mouth tightly and whispered: "Don't move!"
The little maid was about to scream, when the lantern fell from her hands and with a bang, the candle flame went out. Xie Ling used his strength to cover her firmly with his palm like copper pouring iron. At the same time, he lowered his voice. He threatened in her ear: "If you dare to scream, I will go in with a white knife and come out with a red knife."
The little maid was startled. Sure enough, she noticed something sharp pressing against her waist. Even through her thin clothes, she could feel the coldness coming from it.
Sweat gradually broke out on her forehead, her heart was pounding, and her whole body couldn't help but tremble. Seeing her like this, Xie Ling said softly: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you, I just wanted to ask something. If you If you don¡¯t scream, I will let you go.¡±
The little maid nodded repeatedly and made a slight whining sound. Before Xie Ling let go, she did not forget to threaten in a low voice: "But if you scream, the speed of the attack will not be as fast as my knife. I understand." ?"
After getting a positive answer, Xie Ling let go of the maid, but the knife in his left hand was still not put away. His hand was half open, and his wide sleeves covered most of the dagger. Looking over, I thought he was holding the little girl's waist intimately, like a lover, but I didn't know that the young man was holding a dagger firmly in his hand.
Xie Ling asked softly: "Is there a doctor coming to the house for treatment today?"
The little maid's voice was trembling a little. She was very frightened and replied in a low voice: "Yes, I have invited the doctor. In the afternoon, the old man was not feeling well"
Xie Ling continued to ask: "There is a young girl, about your age, who came with the doctor. Have you seen her?"
"No, I've never seen it" The little maid explained: "I'm not serving the old man"
Xie Ling's heart sank, and she quickly asked calmly: "How to get to the old man's yard?"
The little maid said with a trembling voice: "II will take you there, please don't kill me"
Xie Ling turned to look at her. The cold moonlight filtered through the branches and leaves on the corridor and fell on his eyebrows. Most of his face was submerged in the darkness. His expression was extremely cold and his eyes were astonishingly bright. His expression was like a foraging animal. Wolf, ruthless and extremely dangerous.
He said coldly: "If you stay at peace, I won't kill you."
"OkayOkay, I'm obedient."
The night was extremely quiet. Shi Hua walked through a long corridor and carefully identified the location with the faint light of the lantern. She had lived in Su Mansion for half a month before, but that was three or four years ago. How could she still remember it? clear?
With all sorts of desperation, Shi Hua had no choice but to climb up the railing of the corridor and take out a candle from a lantern. Although it would easily attract the attention of people in the house, it was better than falling into the pond.
With this small candle, Shi Hua walked through the back garden and looked carefully.My son advised me, "Run quickly. I'm afraid I won't be able to leave until the master and his wife come over."
Xie Ling shook her head and said, "I have to find Ah Jiu."
"Your sister may have left."
Xie Ling was unmoved and just said: "I won't leave until I find Ah Jiu."
Seeing that he refused to leave, Zhu Er said in desperation, "Where are you going to find her? The Su Mansion is so big. If she hides, how can she be found?"
Xie Ling didn't answer, but just pondered, and after a moment he said: "How to get there from here to the side door?"
When Pearl heard him asking about this, she thought he had changed his mind and was leaving. She breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Come here, I'll take you there."
"Thank you."
The night was getting darker and darker, but fortunately the moonlight in the sky was not obscured. Shi Hua followed the general impression and walked towards the side door of the Su Mansion. After walking for a long time, her legs were sore. She had no lighting, so she groped around in the dark along the way. After falling several times, I finally found it.
Someone was guarding the side door. Shi Hua looked at the dim candlelight and hesitated. At this moment, there were some footsteps coming from behind. One after another, she quickly hid behind the flowers and trees to cover her body.
Immediately afterwards, a girl's voice came softly: "This is the side door. I will take you out, but remember not to speak."
The air was silent for a moment, and Shi Hua clearly heard the voice of a very familiar young man: "No, it's not this side door, let's find another one."
Shi Hua was shocked, that person turned out to be Xie Ling!
