Chapter 332 Wen Chao’s request
The fifth young lady’s name is Ma Xiaowan.
She has read poetry and books since she was a child, and is well-known in the Immortal City for her talent and beauty. It is very natural for such a talented girl to marry into the He family in the Immortal City.
But at this time.
The talented woman''s situation was not wonderful. She was pinned to the bed and unable to move.
Wu Xian covered her mouth, Du E held down her legs, and they worked together to control her.
"Don''t scream!"
"Ah... don''t bite either, it will attract ghosts!"
"We are not good people, but at least we are still human beings. You don''t have to be so afraid..."
After Wu Xian and Wu Xian came out of the mass grave, they happened to appear in the fifth mistress''s room. In order not to attract the servants, they had to restrain Ma Xiaowan first.
The two of them talked hard and long before Ma Xiaowan agreed not to make any more noise.
As a result, he let go.
Ma Xiaowan held an awl to his throat, ready to commit suicide if he disagreed with her.
Wu Xian sighed.
The two of them had just returned from the mass graves, and there was still a lot of information to exchange. They originally wanted to discuss it in the fifth mistress''s boudoir, but seeing Ma Xiaowan''s frightened look, it was better to change places.
"Do you know which room Du Rushi lives in? We are her friends..."
Crunch…
The door is closed.
Ma Xiaowan leaned against the door, her heart pounding.
As her breathing gradually stabilized, Ma Xiaowan began to regret. She originally thought that the two people were flower pickers, but she did not expect that after she gave them the address, the two of them actually left.
This is enough to prove that they have no malicious intentions.
And in the He family.
It is simply too difficult to meet people without malicious intentions.
"Ma Xiaowan, Ma Xiaowan, why are you so stupid? Maybe those two people can rescue you from this devil''s cave. It''s too late to say anything now..."
Regret though.
But Ma Xiaowan didn''t dare to chase him out because it was already night.
She had just walked away from the door when she suddenly heard a knock on the door.
"Are they back?"
"Yes, it must be them. Although there are no moonlight monsters in the He family at night, they can''t move around at will!"
Ma Xiaowan opened the door expectantly, only to find that those standing at the door were not the Wu Xian and Du E she expected, but a gentle old man and a woman wearing a curtain hat.
Lessons learned from last time.
Ma Xiaowan did not reject the two of them immediately, but had a tentative conversation.
As they chatted, she knew that these two people were in the same group as the young man and woman from before. They came to the He family for a proper funeral and they were good people.
So she enthusiastically invited the two of them into the room.
During the chat, Ma Xiaowan was shocked by Wen Chao''s erudition. This was the first time she met such a person.
Wen Chao also had a good impression of Ma Xiaowan. Jiang Chun just looked a bit like his wife, but Ma Xiaowan''s poetry-reading temperament was exactly the same as his wife''s.
So he asked Ma Xiaowan: "Can you do me a favor?"
Ma Xiaowan had something to ask for, so he nodded and said, "Sir, please tell me, if I can do it, I will definitely help you."
"My wife and I have a very good relationship..."
Wen Chao began to tell Ma Xiaowan the story of his wife. The relationship between the two moved Ma Xiaowan very much. Wen Chao sighed at the end of the topic. "When my wife died, I did something wrong, which has always been a thorn in my heart. I really want to know whether she will hate me or forgive me, so I want to consult you."
Ma Xiaowan wiped the corners of her eyes: "You and your wife have such a deep relationship, no matter what wrong thing you have done, she will probably forgive you."
Wen Chao breathed a sigh of relief: "That''s right, then you will forgive me, right..."
…
The rain gradually slowed down.
Wu Xian and the two moved forward carefully in the mud, and soon found Du Rushi''s boudoir.
The He family is even safer at night than during the day. There are no moonlight monsters here, and due to sight problems, it is harder for the servants to spot them.
When Du Rushi knew that Wu Xian and the others were here, she was so happy that she welcomed them in enthusiastically.
The room is very clean and has a light fragrance. Since the male owner has only come here for a long time, the decoration of the room is based on Du Rushi''s preferences.
Such an environment makes it easy for people to relax. Wu Xian and the two wiped the rain off their bodies and began to talk about what they discovered after entering the mass grave.
Wu Xian wiped his hair with Du Rushi''s towel. Due to the influence of the rain, his exploding curls were finally suppressed.
"We need to change our approach. We can no longer **** things directly from graves. I don''t want to be regarded as a thief anymore."
When the sick man shouted to catch the thief, it was definitely one of the most embarrassing moments in Wu Xian''s life.
Wu Xian continued.
"According to my observation, the door of the thatched house is shaped like a tombstone. We should be able to enter the room directly through the tombstone, so as not to attract all the ghosts around."
"In addition, there is order there. Although our behavior is restricted, this is not necessarily a bad thing, because we can also take advantage of the order, such as direct inquiries and open transactions!"
Du E nodded and added: "Yes, we can also coerce, kidnap, and bribe. Isn''t there an ''official'' there? We can poison the ''official'' and directly control him to help us find things."
Wu Xian twitched the corner of his mouth, but Du E''s thoughts were still as dark as usual.
but…
That''s good.
Du Rushi listened with confusion in her eyes. Why couldn''t she understand what the two people were discussing, and...it seemed like it was done by bad people.
Du E paused.
"No matter what we do next, there is one thing that must be resolved in advance, and that is the time when we enter the mass grave. If we don''t figure out the time, no matter what we do, we will not be practical."
This time they got out of trouble because time arrived, but next time they might miss the opportunity because time was too late.
Wu Xian laughed: "Don''t worry about this, the time should be twenty minutes, the error won''t be too big, we can just make plans based on this time."
Du E was startled: "How did you know?"
"Calculating."
Wu Xian raised his chin proudly.
"Since I entered the mass grave, I have been counting the time subconsciously, silently counting in my heart, and twitching my fingers every minute."
"Of course, there was some interference in the middle, so this statistic cannot be said to be accurate."
"But the error won''t be too big."
This is a skill that Wu Xian has only recently mastered. Since he can''t bring the clock to the blessed land, he can make himself a human clock.
With this time, the two men''s exploration of the mass graves will go much more smoothly.
Right now.
The three people in the room suddenly heard a knock on the door...
At this time, who could be the person knocking on Du Rushi''s door?
