Chapter 291 Where Does the Tunnel Lead?

At this time, there were only Wei Yuan and Chi Yu in the kitchen.

Hearing that the little girl also wanted to enter the tunnel with him, Wei Yuan looked a little hesitant, he raised his eyes and glanced at her, and said softly, "Why do you suddenly want to go in and have a look?"

"Ok?"

Chi Yu poked her head towards the entrance of the tunnel, her round eyes were full of curiosity. Hearing this, she said casually: "I'm just curious, I want to know where this tunnel leads to. Besides, there is something strange in the kitchen. With one more tunnel, you are not afraid of something popping up out of nowhere?"

Wei Yuan: "..."

In the past, he never used meals, and he would never come to the kitchen in person, and naturally he would not let the kitchen prepare meals. The reason why there is a kitchen in the house is just for the people in the house.

Now, there is another little girl in the mansion who is thinking about the ingredients in the kitchen.

Thinking of this, Wei Yuan thought about it seriously, and replied with one word: "Scared."

Hearing him say he was afraid in such a serious manner, Chi Yu couldn't help laughing, "Wei Yuan, so you are also afraid at times?"

Wei Yuan:?
Couldn't he be afraid sometimes?
However, it is natural for the lady to say what she says now.

Wei Yuan hummed, walked over suddenly, closed the kitchen door, and locked the door.

"Lady, we should go down to the tunnel to find out."

Chi Yu was so confused by his actions that she still had time to react. Hearing this, she subconsciously nodded and replied, "Okay."

This little girl looks a little obedient.

Wei Yuan couldn't hold back for a while, raised his hand and rubbed her head, and took her hand again, "Come on, lady, be careful, walk ahead for your husband."

His hand was suddenly held, Chi Yu coughed lightly, and hummed unnaturally.

Wei Yuan watched, and couldn't help curling the corners of his lips.

The entrance of the tunnel is not too narrow. When Wei Yuan went down, he could step on layers of stone stairs. It was very strong, and it didn't look like it was newly built. The tunnel should have existed for a long time.

It was only today that Chi Yu accidentally discovered it.

There is no light in the tunnel, only faint light shines in from above.

Wei Yuan lit the torch and walked down the stone ladder step by step.

Chi Yu standing on the top couldn't hear the movement in the tunnel, nor heard Wei Yuan's voice, so she squatted down and shouted towards the tunnel: "Wei Yuan, can I go down?"

Before the words finished, Wei Yuan's voice came out, "Yes."

"There are layers of stone stairs under the entrance. When the lady comes down, she should be more careful."

Chi Yu quickly said hello, and then cautiously went into the entrance.

Sure enough, she stepped on the stone ladder all at once.

Fortunately, I just heard the reminder, otherwise, if she didn't pay attention for a while, she might accidentally step on the air.

After a while, Chi Yu came to Wei Yuan's side.

The little girl saw the fire pocket in Wei Yuan's hand at a glance, and she asked curiously, "Wei Yuan, when did you prepare the fire pocket?"

Wei Yuan looked down, "I didn't make special preparations, but I always keep it with me."

Hearing this, Chi Yu nodded thoughtfully: "It seems that she has to prepare a fire book when she is going out."

Wei Yuan immediately paid attention to the important point: "Is the lady going out?"

Chi Yu: "..."

Oops, why did she say that just now?

If Wei Yuan thought of something...

Earlier, she planned to escape on the way, but she was tired and sleepy, so she couldn't run away. Now...

It seems that she was really left behind by Wei Yuan?
No no no.

She can't just stay in Dongfang Mansion like this!

Chi Yu shook his head quickly: "It's just being prepared."

"So it is."

Wei Yuan smiled: "If the lady really wants it, after you go out, I will give the Huozhangzi to the lady for my husband."

How could such a good thing happen?
"Good good."

Fearing that Wei Yuan would regret it, Chi Yu hurriedly agreed.

The tunnel seems a bit long.

Wei Yuan and Chi Yu walked back and forth for a quarter of an hour, but they still couldn't reach the end of the tunnel.

"Wei Yuan, isn't this tunnel connected to your entire house?"

Chi Yu couldn't help but complain, "If not, why is this tunnel so long?"

Wei Yuan nodded slightly, and said in a low tone, "It's not impossible."

"If it is true as what the lady said, it seems that this house really cannot be lived in."

Chi Yu was puzzled: "Can't we seal the tunnel entrance?"

Wei Yuan shook his head: "It can't be sealed. After we get out, we can only send people to fill up the entire tunnel."

"Um……"

Chi Yu's lips moved. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly saw a faint light flickering in front of him——

"Wei Yuan, look, we're finally here!"

Chi Yu said firmly: "Now I want to see where the tunnel leads!"

However, the closer she got, the little girl noticed that Wei Yuan's face seemed serious and displeased. Chi Yu asked, "Wei Yuan, what's wrong with you?"

"My lady, I found out for my husband—"

After a slight pause, Wei Yuan continued: "The tunnel leads to the Dongfang Mansion next door."
