Chapter 25 The Mansion of the Head 09

However, to their surprise, the three did not show up during lunch, and there was no one in their room. The three seemed to avoid them on purpose. They didn't see "Shanshan" until the housekeeper came to invite them. "Late" three people.

As soon as everyone arrived, the housekeeper immediately led the way and led the group towards the back mountain.

Ding Chiyu still didn't see Fang Mo, asked the housekeeper, but still didn't give any response, Ding Chiyu couldn't tell from the housekeeper's performance whether it was deliberate or not, on the contrary, he cared more about Fang Mo's safety, but at the moment he couldn't help himself, He didn't have a clue about this trip to the blind spot, he couldn't think of any way to change it, and felt that the master's illness needed Fang Mo, Fang Mo should be safe for the time being, and the rest, he could only take one step at a time.

The road conditions are very bad, the surroundings are barren, there is hardly a trace of green, and the hideous rocks are not very different in the eyes of Ding Chiyu. Shang Yang put more thoughts on the mountains and rocks along the way.

The seven people were still divided into their own small groups, and intentionally or unintentionally distanced themselves.

The four-eyed three followed closely behind the butler. Ding Chiyu had always wanted to talk to the three of them on the road. There was nothing the fish could do for a while.

The steward sent the group to the cliff of the back mountain, and then explained.

The medicine the owner needed grew on the cliff, and had to be hung down by a rope to be picked manually. After the housekeeper explained, he left the rope and the medicine bag behind, and left without even listening to a word of extraneous words.

Everyone got used to the steward's reaction and didn't have any hope. After discussing with each other for a few words, they each chose their location and started to prepare for collecting herbs.

Ding Chiyu looked at the time, it was only three hours before dark, after meeting with Shang Yang, he decided to collect the medicine first, and deal with the matter with the three of them after returning home.

There was an iron pile on the cliff that had been fixed long ago. Shang Yang tried it out and it was very firm, so he fixed the rope on it.

Ding Chiyu wanted to go down, but was firmly stopped by Shang Yang. It was useless for Ding Chiyu to explain the reasons he had thought up. After several times, he could only stay on the cliff and watch Shang Yang go down the rope. .

Seeing Shang Yang's figure gradually shrinking and entering the blind spot, Ding Chiyu felt a little nervous for the first time.

He looked at the other two groups of people, and they were also very cautious.

The wind on the cliff was not particularly strong, Dingchiyu waited for about 15 minutes, and finally waited for the rhythmic tugging from the rope: Shang Yang arrived at the place where the medicine was collected.

The distance was shorter than expected. Although he couldn't see the cloud-shrouded area below, Dingchiyu felt relieved and focused on the small changes around him.

While waiting on the cliff, Dingchiyu felt extremely slow, until Shang Yang's tugging came from the rope again, Dingchiyu hurriedly began to pull up the thin rope tied to the herb basket.

Shang Yang harvested a lot, Ding Chiyu didn't have time to distinguish, poured down the medicine, and put down the medicine basket again.

This step was carried out two more times, and Shang Yang climbed up with the herb basket. Seeing him safe and sound, Ding Chiyu was completely relieved.

I don't know when, there was a thick layer of fog around, and the time Shang Yang untied the rope, Dingchiyu had checked the herbs and installed them. When the two looked up, the sky and the earth were already covered with fog. Let alone distinguishing directions, even the nearby The two people who are close at hand can only confirm the existence of each other by holding hands.

Ding Chiyu tried to call other people a few times, but the voice rang out from afar, echoing violently, but did not get any response, Ding Chiyu couldn't help but feel a little strange.

The two of them didn't leave in a hurry, they waited for a long time, and the fog finally dissipated, but the sky had already turned dark.

As far as the eye can see, there is no one, and the sky is as dark as ink, without a trace of light. Ding Chiyu took out his mobile phone, but the light of the mobile phone was immediately swallowed by the surroundings.

After the two discussed, Shang Yang lit the peeping candle, and sure enough, the peeping candle was not affected by anything. In the faint candlelight, Shang Yang led Dingchiyu and walked towards the direction in memory.

Obviously they could find the mark left on the rock, but after the two walked around, they still returned to the cliff. After pondering, Shang Yang decided to try again. After trying several directions, he actually let them leave They walked up the cliff, but what appeared in front of them was not the way back, but the hazy silhouette of a dilapidated building hidden by rocks.

With such an obvious situation, the two couldn't stop walking, but seeing the black night around them and feeling the dead silence, the two finally decided to take a closer look.

When they came close to the building, the two couldn't help but wonder why this dilapidated building looked so familiar.

The building looks like an ancestral temple, with dilapidated and old outer walls, and cobwebs and dead grass all over it, as if it had been abandoned for hundreds of years, but Dingchiyu found it so similar to the ancestral temple in the mansion after careful identification.

Ding Chiyu went to visit Shang Yang and got affirmative feedback from him.

After the two walked around the outer wall, they returned to the closed gate, only to see that there was nothing in the place where the lock should have been. The two of them worked hard together, and the gate slowly opened in a smell of dust. Open slowly.

The flame of the peeping candle in his hand was not disturbed, after the two looked at each other, Shang Yang raised the peeping candle in front, Ding Chiyu followed closely, the two walked in slowly with light steps.

To their surprise, compared with the dilapidated outside, the ground under their feet was as clean as new, spotless, as if someone often came to clean it.

The area of ​​the temple is not small, but the lighting range of the peeping candle is limited, so they can't see the whole picture clearly, so the two groped their way to the altar, and Shang Yang found a long burning lamp, and found that there was oil in it, just about to light it, under the altar Suddenly, there was a strange noise, and a black figure rushed out and rushed towards Dingchiyu.

Shang Yang's eyes were sharp and his hands were quick. When he stuffed the peeping candle into Dingchiyu's hand, he swiftly suppressed the shadow to the ground.

Ding Chiyu quickly lit up the ever-burning lamp, and the inside of the temple was immediately illuminated. When he looked down, he realized that the person who was pinned down and locked up by Shang Yang turned out to be a person.

The people under him struggled desperately, but they couldn't get out of Shang Yang's grasp, instead they got more painful countermeasures. Ding Chiyu lowered his head to take a closer look, and at the same time he showed surprise on his face, he beckoned Shang Yang to let him go.

Shang Yang got up, and Ding Chiyu helped Shang Yang tidy up some wrinkled clothes. Only then did Shang Yang notice that what he restrained was actually Fu Jie, who had disappeared since the morning.
