The rebirth of the first daughter of the poisonous concubine

Chapter 64 Mysterious Disappearance
"Lord Huai! Lord Huai!"

She anxiously looked around and searched, but only felt that there was silence around her, only her own voice kept echoing, which seemed more and more strange and disturbing.

What exactly is going on?Could it be that Nangong Ling was deliberately playing tricks on himself?

She couldn't think of any other possibility, she could only think this way, and it could be regarded as comforting herself.After all, that ghost just now... She still felt goosebumps when she thought about it.If it was her previous life, she would definitely not believe in these ghosts and gods, but in this life, she herself was reborn, and this kind of thing happened to her, which really made her have to change some of her previous thoughts .

But at this time, she told herself to calm down.

Carefully took out the dagger hidden on his body, hid it in the sleeve of his right hand, held the handle of the dagger tightly in his right hand, and prepared to swing the knife to protect himself if he encountered what happened just now.

No matter what happens, she will try her best to do her best.

However, she sat quietly on the quilt on the ground and waited for a while, after all, there was no other movement around her.

"Nangong Ling." She called out his name boldly, but there was still no response from the surroundings, as if Nangong Ling had never been here before.If it weren't for the wounds on her body, she couldn't help but suspect that everything she experienced just now was an illusion.

Her palms were already sweating nervously, but she forced herself to calm down, thinking about other possibilities.

This secret room seems to be closed, only the door he came in just now, but now it seems that the copper door is not unusual.If he pushed open the copper door and went out in the blink of an eye just now, it would be impossible for him not to hear such a loud movement.

Even if the skill is as high as Nangong Ling, it is impossible.

Su Ruiran made this conclusion in her heart, gathered herself together, and walked towards the bronze gate.

However, as soon as she approached the copper gate, she suddenly discovered a fatal problem.

From the inside, the copper door has no handle.

She was startled, and hurriedly looked around. The copper door was perfectly inlaid with the surrounding stone walls. Such an ingenious workmanship was comparable to that of ordinary craftsmen. But in this way, how would she get out?
She suddenly realized that she had already returned to her room after waking up from a coma that day, so she didn't know how to get out at all.

It seems that the problem now is not only the grimace that suddenly appeared, but also why Nangong Ling disappeared suddenly. If he is stuck here and no one knows, he will die in a short time.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help becoming nervous. She managed to escape the pursuit and survived the catastrophe. It would be too worthless if she died in this place.She clenched her fists tightly, thinking that she couldn't just give up like this, there must be other ways.Nangong Ling may not disappear out of thin air, there must be other ways out.

Thinking of this, she forced herself to calm down first, and then began to search for another exit.

After searching around, I felt that the pear-wood carved crabapple flower cabinet in the southeast of the house was a bit strange. This cabinet was about one meter high, but for some reason, it couldn't even be moved, and it felt extra heavy.

Su Ruiran opened the cabinet without hesitation, and was startled.

Among the quilts in the closet, a ghostly face was looking at him, the same as the one behind the gauze just now.

She took a step back with an exclamation of "ah", and fell to the ground, looking at that face and looking at herself.After being stunned for a long time, I came back to my senses.It seemed strange to see that face motionless.

Huh, strange.

Su Ruiran got up from the ground, and walked over to take a look, only to find that it was a false alarm. It turned out that the so-called grimace was just a mask.

It was only then that Su Ruiran realized that this mask was the same as the mask of the mysterious man who hijacked her that night, and it was also the mysterious man who helped her escape today.

Did he come here just now?

Su Ruiran still feels a little creepy after thinking about it. Could it be that Nangong Ling's sudden disappearance is related to that person?

But why did he take Nangong Ling away?

The more Su Ruiran thought about it, the more she didn't understand, she couldn't help but reached out to take off the mask, but as soon as her hand touched the mask, she felt something was wrong, there seemed to be something behind the mask.

Su Ruiran froze for a moment, and quickly and carefully took off the mask.

However, as soon as she took off the mask, she was startled.Behind this mask is nothing but a face.

With the previous fright, she didn't cry out this time, but she was also quite frightened. She took a step back and didn't come back to her senses for a long time.

When I took a closer look, I found that the expression on this person's face was numb and stiff, and his complexion was abnormally white.

She boldly walked over to take a look, only to find that it was not a real human head, but a wooden human head, but the nose and eyes were very delicately depicted on it, which looked the same as the real one.

Su Ruiran couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, cold sweat was already on her forehead.

I thought to myself that the ghost-masked man and that girl are really strange, why put such scary things in the closet, aren't you afraid of scaring yourself?
She took a closer look, and immediately realized that it was not simple.

There is a thin transparent line on the neck of this puppet, if you don't look carefully, you really can't see it at all.

Relying on her intuition, Su Ruiran felt that this should be a certain mechanism.She hesitated for a moment, and was also worried about the danger, but after thinking about it carefully, she was trapped here without any progress, and her only hope was on this thread, so even if there was danger, she should try it.

Thinking of this, she made full preparations, tore off a few strands of hair, and connected them to one end of the thin thread, while standing far away, she gently pulled the hair, pulled the thin thread, and pulled hard.After hearing a "creak", the cabinet suddenly and slowly moved away, revealing the exit behind it.

It turned out to be here.

Su Ruiran leaned over to probe into the cave, only to see that it was pitch black, and she couldn't see anything.

She plucked a pearl from her dress and tried to throw it into the hole, listening for the echo inside.The pearl rolled down "bang bang bang" for a long time, but there was no sound of hitting a wall.Judging by the sound of the pearl, it seems that the hole is not shallow, so it is probably the exit.

Su Ruiran took the candlestick from the table, held it in her hands, leaned forward, and walked in cautiously.

The candlelight instantly illuminated the cave, Su Ruiran saw that the stone slabs piled up around them were as regular as the entrance, and she felt relieved, it seemed right, this is probably the exit.

Sure enough, after walking for a long time, she saw steps. Su Ruiran went up the steps and soon reached the exit.

Pressing the mechanism on the nearby stone wall to open the stone slab of the exit, Su Ruiran finally returned to the ground again.Surrounded by barren mountains and ridges, it was pitch black.But listening to the insects around her felt at ease instead, it was better than hearing nothing underground just now.

Looking around, she was surprised to find several fires, and it seemed that the camp was not far away.

Su Ruiran was overjoyed, and immediately extinguished the candlestick in her hand, and quickly returned to the camp with light work.When she returned to her yurt, she saw that the lights around her were almost turned off, and it looked similar to her usual scene after falling asleep, so Mother Wang came as she had ordered.

Su Ruiran didn't go through the main entrance, but went in through the window.

As soon as he entered, he saw Wang Momo, dozing against the wall by the door, and was suddenly awakened by the sound of her coming in.

"Small……"

Su Ruiran gestured for silence, and Wang Momo hurriedly covered her mouth without exhaling.

As soon as Su Ruiran returned to her room, she began to take off her clothes. She couldn't take a shower at this time, and there was too much movement.But the clothes were covered with mud and blood, and it was impossible to leave them.

Wang Momo came over and asked with concern in a low voice: "Miss, why did you come back so late, worrying about the death of slaves, is everything going well?"

Su Ruiran nodded, and didn't have time to explain to her, so she simply said: "Don't worry, I'm fine."

After speaking, he asked her to bring a set of clean clothes. After changing, she crumpled up the dirty clothes she had just changed and threw them under the bed.Wang Momo frowned, if she read it correctly, there was clearly blood on the clothes just now.The young lady is obviously looking for Lord Huai, how could this happen?
"Miss, what is going on here?"

Only then did Su Ruiran briefly tell her what had happened, Wang Momo was terrified, and hurriedly said: "No, this clothes can't be left in the house, if someone finds out, you'll be punished, servant girl Take it and burn it."

"No." Su Ruiran shook her head and said, "It's getting late at this time, if you take it out and burn something again, I'm afraid it will attract attention."

What should I do, Wang Momo frowned and paced back and forth anxiously in the room.

Su Ruiran didn't speak, but walked over to sit at the desk with a lamp in her hand, and began to grind ink by herself.

When Wang Momo came to help, Su Ruiran asked her to do it, took out a piece of rice paper and spread it on the table.She walked too hastily just now and took the mask away, but she was sure that the key to all these things was on the mask.

"Miss, what are you drawing?" Wang Momo frowned as she looked at the ghost face on the paper.

Relying on memory, Su Ruiran drew that mask.When the ink was all dry, it was handed over to Madam Wang, and she told her, "Mom, do you know the pattern on this mask?"

Wang Momo looked at the grimace on the painting, that grimace was ferocious and terrifying, with fangs, she felt a little shuddering.

She shook her head and replied, "This servant has never seen such a strange pattern. Is this what Miss saw from the underground secret room?"

Su Ruiran nodded, folded the dried drawing paper, handed it to Nanny Wang, and said, "Go around and ask around secretly tomorrow, someone will definitely know about this mask."

"Yes." Wang Momo carefully put the drawing paper into her sleeve.

Another night passed like this, Su Ruiran tossed and turned, thinking about the secret room all the time, without sleep all night.

There was the sound of a rooster crowing in her ears, and she saw the sky turn white through the window, so she simply put on her clothes and got up from the bed.Today is hunting, but there are still three or four hours before leaving the face saint.But before that, she had to confirm the most important thing, that is, whether Nangong Ling came back last night.

The camp was so quiet all night, it didn't look like a prince disappeared suddenly.

What's more, Su Ruiran knew early on that Nangong Ling was not that kind of person.People who get into trouble easily.

Nanny Wang gently pushed the door open and entered the room, and was surprised to see that she had already sat up, and couldn't help saying: "Miss, why did you get up so early."

"Changing clothes for me, I'm going to see Lord Huai." As long as I see Nangong Ling, all the mysteries in my heart can be solved.

Wang Momo showed a surprised expression when she heard the words, and couldn't help saying: "How does Miss know that the prince has returned?"

"Have you really come back?" She couldn't help asking when she heard the words, after all, it was just speculation before.

Wang Momo nodded, and replied with certainty: "The maidservant went to inquire about the news early in the morning. Although the words were tight-lipped, they got the news. I can be sure that the prince has gone back last night."
