Chapter 0109 – A sudden wind rises (2 / 2)
by Jessie@AFNCCChen Zian’s expression remained unchanged, but cold sweat oozed from his palms.
Just now, the scented capsule was hidden in the inner closet!
Chen Zisheng had a perfunctory smile on his face, “Doubtful or not, just let big brother go in and find out.”
Chen Zian hurriedly rolled his wheelchair forward to block it, but it was too late.
Chen Zisheng quickly stepped into the inner room, first lifted the bed sheet to check the bottom of the bed, under the bed is empty. He followed by walking towards the closet and vigorously opened it outward!
The closet was empty, nothing.
Chen Zian exhaled deeply, his back was already covered in cold sweat.
“Is big brother looking for someone, do you want Zian’s help?”
“No need!”
Chen Zisheng walked out of the inner room with a gloomy face.
How could he let Chen Zian know that his own concubine had stolen a man? Moreover, it seems that Caidie’s information is not necessarily accurate, if Chen Zian knew that he had been fooled by his mother-in-law, wouldn’t he laugh his ass off?
Chen Zisheng waved his hand, striding outward, letting that junior lead the way, heading straight for the third floor.
Just as the two of them left, Chen Zian quickly went up to close the door tightly. He quickly got up and down from his wheelchair, quickly walking to the closet there, opening the door to rummage back and forth, shouting under his breath, “Xiang Capsicum, Xiang Capsicum?”
All that answered him was silence.
But he had just seen Xiang Capsicum hiding in there with his own eyes, how could a big living person disappear for no reason at all?
“Could it be that there is actually a secret passage in this room?”
Chen Zian mused, constantly touching up the inside of the closet with his hands.
Meanwhile, Shampoo Capsicum rubbed her shoulder, which was sore from the fall, as she groped her way through the gloomy passageway.
Just now when she hid in the closet, somehow she touched the mechanism, behind her suddenly empty, fell into this dark passage.
Xiang Capsicum secretly thought, I did not think that in my lifetime, I can personally experience once in the words of the book only in the dark road, also can be considered not in vain this life.
The dark passage was dim and damp, but the air was free of a musty odor, and it was obvious that ventilation was often used. Fragrant Capsicum cautiously made her way along the dark passage, her fingers gently running over the walls in an attempt to find any clues that could point the way.
After walking for some distance, the cul-de-sac gradually became more spacious and there seemed to be a faint light coming through from the front.
Shampoo Capsicum picked up the pace and finally came to the end of the cul-de-sac.
Here was a small, dark door, with brighter light coming through the cracks, apparently approaching another part of the passage.
Fragrant Capsule took a deep breath and carefully pushed open the hidden door in front of her. What met her eyes was an exquisitely furnished broad elegant room, and compared to the room she had just been in, the furnishings here appeared even more luxurious.
Fragrant Capsicum’s gaze quickly scanned the room, only to see that the center of the room was set with a valuable rosewood round table, which was inlaid with gold and silver finely crafted and finely carved auspicious cloud patterns. On the wall hung a pair of landscape scrolls with delicate strokes and far-reaching meanings, even as shallow as she was, she could tell that they were precious ancient paintings made by great masters of the past dynasties.
In the center of the room was a huge circular carpet, woven with intricate floral motifs with gold thread hooks, which did not look like the craftsmanship of the Central Plains.
The position of the room against the window was set with a wide rosewood book case, on which a large night pearl was placed, glittering. Next to it was a jade-inlaid Bo Gu Shelf, on which were displayed large and small porcelain vases, as well as a variety of tool-style things.
Xiang Capsicum couldn’t help but walk forward, fixed his eyes on it, only to realize that it wasn’t a tool at all, it was actually all kinds of knives and torture instruments!
Startled, Xiang Capsicum looked back and realized that the closet in this room was also where she had come from. Intuition told her that perhaps the closets in every compartment of the Den Magpie House were connected to this one!
Xiang Capsicum took a deep breath, did not dare to stay for a long time, just wanted to tiptoe away, then heard an icy cold female voice ringing out from behind.
“Who!”
A short, icy blade lay across the neck of the scented capsule, seemingly about to slit her throat in the next second.
