I rely on learning to dominate the entertainment industry [Ancient wear today]

It is rare for Master Guoshi to have the mind to gossip, so he hid in the dark and listened for a long time.

But gossip belongs to gossip, and what should be done still cannot be left behind.

So when he noticed that the topic of those people began to gradually change, Li Xingchen shot very simply, and together with Fu Tingshen, they were brought down directly.

In less than ten minutes, Li Xingchen and Fu Tingshen had already reached the center of the underground palace.

You have a good sense of direction in your itinerary, and you have carefully observed the internal structure of Hu's house before coming to Hu's house.

According to the information he got, the place where he and Fu Tingshen are now should be——

"Banquet hall."

Before Li Xingchen could think about the result, Fu Tingshen whispered the answer in his ear.

Isn't this location just below the banquet hall when they came to participate in Patriarch Hu's birthday a few days ago?

Seriously, this place is already a little close to the main entrance of the Hu Family Courtyard.

"Want to go in?"

Seeing that Li Xingchen did not speak, Fu Tingshen whispered in Li Xingchen's ear.

At the same time, he did not forget to look up at a gate not far away.

There is only one iron door outside the rice chamber where Gu Nanli was detained just now, and there is only a copper lock on the door that looks a bit strong, but is actually not a problem for Fu Tingshen and Li Xingchen.

But the door in front of him is completely different.

This is a stone gate. Fu Tingshen roughly looked it over. This stone gate is about two meters wide and three meters high.

The style of the stone gate is somewhat similar to the gate outside the courtyard, and there are only two iron rings on the gate, without any lock.

But his intuition told Fu Tingshen that it was not an easy task to open this stone gate.

In addition, there are several seemingly simple but complicated dark red patterns painted on the stone gate.

Having been with Li Xingchen for a long time, Fu Tingshen could tell at a glance that these patterns were very similar to the runes that Li Xingchen usually drew on the talisman paper.

"Of course I'm going in."

Li Xingchen replied as a matter of course, but after he finished speaking, he still stood where he was, without any intention of going forward.

Fu Tingshen didn't know what the pattern on the stone gate was, but Li Xingchen could see it clearly.

Fu Tingshen's conjecture is correct, there are indeed several runes drawn on the stone gate, and they are also runes that prevent others from entering.

Unlocking these runes was not difficult for Li Xingchen.

But the difficulty was, after he unlocked the rune, how to open the stone door quietly, and then walk into the door without disturbing anyone.

After all, Li Xingchen didn't want to act rashly without any clues and didn't know how many people were inside the stone gate.

Besides...

"Fu Tingshen..."

As if thinking of something, Li Xingchen reached out and tugged at the corner of Fu Tingshen's clothes.

Noticing Li Xingchen's movements, Fu Tingshen hastily lowered his head slightly, and put his ear next to Li Xingchen's mouth.

After hearing Li Xingchen's words clearly, Fu Tingshen frowned slightly, as if he disapproved.

But in the end, Li Xingchen was not overwhelmed, and after saying "wait for me for 10 minutes", he turned and walked behind.

Li Xingchen and Fu Tingshen didn't hold back just now, and those who were knocked unconscious by them could sleep for at least ten hours, so compared to just now, the secret passage now is much safer.

Fu Tingshen didn't go very far, the quiet environment in the secret passage combined with his extraordinary hearing, Li Xingchen could even vaguely hear the voice of Fu Tingshen talking.

While Fu Tingshen was on the phone, Li Xingchen turned around and began to study the stone gate in front of him.

When Fu Tingshen came back, the dark red runes on the stone gate had already dimmed a lot.

Compared with just now, the current stone gate is like an oil lamp that has run out of oil.

Li Xingchen raised his chin deeply at Fu Ting:

"Let's go."

"Go straight in?" Fu Ting took a deep look at Shimen, but didn't move.

"Go straight in, the space inside is not small, let's keep quiet for a while, and nothing will happen."

Li Xingchen nodded, explained a little, and then directly pulled Fu Tingshen towards Shimen.

Li Xingchen lightly put his hand on the stone door, and then the stone door, which seemed very difficult to open, was directly pushed out of a gap that just enough for one person to pass through.

Seeing such a situation, Fu Tingshen stopped talking, followed behind Li Xingchen, and quietly slipped in through the gap.

As soon as Li Xingchen and the others stepped into the stone gate, the pushed open stone gate quietly returned to its original position, but after a while, the stone gate returned to its original closed appearance.

After entering the door, Fu Tingshen finally understood why Li Xingchen said just now that he was quieter so that no one would find out.

Because the space behind the door is bigger than he imagined.

Even compared to the banquet hall on the ground of the Hu family, it is not inferior at all.

The current location of Li Xingchen and Fu Tingshen should be a place similar to a porch, with a screen in front as a shield.

From the positions of Li Xingchen and Fu Tingshen, the situation in the secret room cannot be clearly seen through the screen, and the people who want to come to the secret room cannot see the situation of Li Xingchen and Fu Tingshen clearly through the screen.

The environment in the secret room was a bit dim, there were no electric lights, only a few candles lit around the walls.

Fu Tingshen didn't know if it was his own illusion, he always felt that when Li Xingchen's gaze swept across the candles on the wall, there seemed to be a moment... fierce?

But before Fu Tingshen observed carefully, Li Xingchen had already pulled Fu Tingshen into the secret room.

There are a lot of things placed in the secret room, and there are even a few large bearing columns in the room. For Fu Tingshen and Li Xingchen who want to hide, they are simply not too friendly.

Not long after, Li Xingchen found an excellent location to hide him and Fu Tingshen.

At this time, Fu Tingshen's brows couldn't help but furrowed inward——

The oppressive atmosphere he felt in the secret passage just now became more and more intense in the secret room.

At the same time, Fu Tingshen also smelled a very obvious smell of blood.

Aware of this, Fu Tingshen's eyes began to shoot in the secret room.

After a while, he found the source of the bloody smell in the secret room.

In the center of this secret room, there is a small pool, which looks like a bath.

In the center of the bath, there is a very simple stone bed.

There was a person lying on the stone bed.

To be precise, it was a person who was covered in blood.

Through the surrounding candlelight, it can be seen that there is a wound on the limbs of that person. Although it is not big, it is bleeding out continuously.

With his extraordinary eyesight, even if the light in the secret room was dim, Fu Tingshen could recognize it at a glance.

That figure was Hu Shu who hadn't contacted them since the banquet.

After realizing that the person on the stone bed was Hu Shu, Fu Tingshen's pupils shrank inaudibly——

This secret room belongs to the Hu family, and Hu Shu is the young master of the Hu family.

It is self-evident who can make Hu Shu lie here with such an image.

From the dried blood on the stone bed, it is not difficult to see that Hu Shu's situation has been maintained for a while.

"Da da da……"

As if to confirm Fu Tingshen's thoughts, there was a sound of footsteps in the secret room.

From the intermittent voice, it could be heard that the person who came was a little staggering and not in good health.

After a while, the silver-haired Patriarch Hu came in from another door in the secret room, and then walked slowly to the stone bed:

"You lasted longer than I thought."

There seemed to be a hint of appreciation in his tone.

It's just that under such circumstances, such admiration is very creepy.

After all, Hu Shu, as the son of Patriarch Hu, is not in a good condition now.

Sure enough, after a moment of silence, Hu Shu finally couldn't help asking:

"why?"

Perhaps because of excessive blood loss, Hu Shu's voice was a little fluttering.

Who knew that after hearing this question, Patriarch Hu seemed to have heard something funny, a smile appeared on his face, full of sarcasm.

But after laughing, Master Hu finally answered Hu Shu's question:

"Why? Because this is the meaning of your existence in this world!"

The malice in the words made Hu Shu frown in discomfort.

"I didn't intend to do it so soon, but you are really disobedient."

However, Patriarch Hu seemed not to see the resistance on Hu Shu's face, and muttered to himself.

"I do not have!"

Hearing Patriarch Hu's "disobedience", Hu Shu retorted subconsciously. Since childhood, he has never done anything against his father!

What happened these few days was like a dream to Hu Shu.

Hu Shu didn't know why his father, who was still smiling and talking to Fu Ting one moment, suddenly turned his face the next moment.

Why is there a secret room in the basement of the house where he has lived for more than [-] years that he doesn't know at all.

Why did his father, who was not close to him before, but still kind, suddenly turn his face away.

and also……

Why did his father treat him like this.

Looking at the way his father looked at him at this moment, Hu Shu even felt that he was not his father's son, but a commodity for sale.

"No? Have I told you that you should be cautious in your words and deeds outside, and don't associate with those messy people?"

I don't know which word Hu Shu touched the taboo of Patriarch Hu, but Patriarch Hu stepped forward and directly pinched the wound on Hu Shu's wrist:

"And how did you do it?"

"But they're not messy people..."

The wound was pinched, and Hu Shu's face was distorted for a moment because of the pain, but even so, Hu Shu still had his own persistence.

After leaving Hu's house, it's not that Hu Shu didn't notice the irrationality in the various "rules" set by Patriarch Hu for him.

But whether it is from the Hu family or others, they are all telling Hu Shu.

He is the only heir of the Hu family, and his father did all this for his own good, and he would not harm him after all.

So even if he didn't like it, Hu Shu didn't question it.

But what Patriarch Hu is doing now has directly overturned Hu Shu's cognition for more than [-] years.

Didn't it mean that father did all of this...for him?
