Killer Concubine: Obtaining the Emperor's Heart by Mistake

Chapter 16 The Man in the Broken House (3)

Xia Jingkai and his main family lived in the north courtyard, and the south courtyard was where her three older brothers and Xia Ying and Xia Yu lived. The east courtyard seemed to have always been just a guest room. Although it was for guests, it was always cleaned by servants. Why is there such a dilapidated house here.

Looking around again, Xia Qian was still a little unwilling to give up. She was sure that she had heard correctly just now, and the only possibility was that there was a mystery hidden here.

And the coughing sound stopped after Xia Qian stood still. Xia Qian looked around the room carefully. There were no other objects on the ground except for the damaged table and chairs, and the walls were also empty.

Xia Qian suddenly had a flash of inspiration, imitating those people who played on TV and knocked on the wall, as if they were looking for traps like this, but she knocked on all four walls and still didn't find any traps.

After finding no results, Xia Qian stood back on the spot, put her hand on her chin and thought, her eyes gradually became sharper, because she felt a faint murderous aura.

Xia Qian smiled lightly, she could feel someone watching her in the dark, but that person must not be in this room but hiding somewhere, that is to say, there is indeed a mechanism here.

Xia Qian quickly walked out of the dilapidated house, went down the stairs and stopped, looking at the pot of red flowers in full bloom on the left side of the dilapidated house. It was a flower that she couldn't name, Xia Qian approached slowly.

Reaching out her hand and gently stroking the most beautiful flower, her slender fingers softly drew circles on the flower. Looking at this gorgeous flower, Xia Qian resisted the desire to pick it off.

Slowly squatting down, Xia Qian moved slowly holding the flowerpot with both hands, only to hear a small sound from behind her, and the stairs, which had no flaws at all, moved away from the door to both sides.

Xia Qian squinted her long and narrow eyes and looked at the removed stairs. It was pitch black there, but Xia Qian walked over without hesitation. Below was the stairs that had been built step by step. Because it was pitch black, it was so deep that there was no bottom. .

Xia Qian lifted the hem of her skirt and walked slowly down. When she just entered, the steps that she had moved away automatically closed together again. She could imagine that if there was a person standing outside now, she would definitely not know that she was walking from the steps just now. down there.

Originally, when she came to the dilapidated house, the pot of blooming flowers attracted her attention, because the place is very desolate, and there are no real plants growing on the desolate ground, and the only thing is the potted flower, which can still grow. It blooms so brightly.

So Xia Qian ran out with the mentality of trying it out, but she didn't expect that the mechanism was actually on the flower pot.

Because there was no light, Xia Qian had no choice but to hold on to the wall and walk down step by step. Gradually, she could hear the melodious sound of spring water tinkling, a bit like the music composed by water droplets falling from rocks and falling into the water.

Xia Qian didn't know how long she had walked, she only knew that she was walking along the wall, and finally she could see a little bit of faint light.
