Chapter 219

After listening to Wu Tsung's words, she clearly suspected that the disaster that had not happened was man-made.

Sui Shan, on the other hand, was the person he thought might have something to do with the matter.

"I haven't found anything useful yet."

Wu Chiu said, "in recent days, I've been entangled in family affairs. I've just cleaned it up. I'm going to see him myself and see if I can ask something."

Xu Mingyi folded his hands and forearms on the table in front of him. When he heard the speech, he subconsciously leaned in his direction and whispered, "I know some ways to make people speak. Can I help you have a try?"

The teahouse was not very spacious. At this time, her action made the teenager feel that the space around him was narrow, which made his breathing a little unnatural.

"... if you have nothing to do, we'll go together later." Wu Tsung said in a normal and honest tone as much as possible.

Xu Mingyi said, "it's better to be early than late. Let's start after eating early."

"OK."

Wu Chiu nodded and took a sip of tea.

"This tea is good," he praised sincerely.

"Yes, I think it's good too." Xu Mingyi said with a smile, "it's the one you asked Sui Jiang to send yesterday."

Is it?

Wu Tsung raised her eyebrows unexpectedly.

He also has a can in his room, but it always tastes so. Why does it feel so fragrant today?

He took another bite and said, "that's the craftsmanship of the tea maker."

Xu Mingyi smiled and said, "OK, don't flatter and tease me."

She remembered that the water the Wu family used for drinking was sent to the palace by taking good mountain spring water from outside the city every morning. In contrast, she casually took a copper pot to boil a pot of water. It's not too much to say that she was spoiling things.

Wu Chiu actually drank half a pot.

They had breakfast together in this teahouse.

Then Xu Mingyi went back to the guest room, prepared a little, changed his men's clothes, and got on the carriage with him.

Wu Chiu didn't ride today.

Xu Mingyi did not think much, but thought it was the snow.

But she didn't know that it was snowy in the past, and Wu Tsui was used to riding.

I changed the carriage this time because she was afraid that she would have too deep a shadow on his riding into the lake in snowy days.

The carriage drove slowly towards the south of the city.

When the carriage stopped, Wu Tsui got off first. Thinking that the snow was wet and slippery under his feet, he stretched out an arm to help Xu Mingyi.

But as soon as he stretched out his arm, he saw that the girl had jumped down neatly and lightly.

"..." the boy could only take back his arm silently without any trace and bear it behind him.

Xu Mingyi's attention was attracted by the other courtyard in front of him, but he didn't notice his action.

This other courtyard looks ordinary. I think it should not be his explicit thing.

She didn't know there was such a place in the last life.

Does this mean that this time he and she really have to be more intimate and know each other better than in the previous life?

As soon as they entered the front yard, Xu Mingyi was stunned by the current situation.

In the yard, more than a dozen dogs of different colors and sizes were chasing Sahuan in the snow nest. Seeing Wu Chiu coming, they immediately ran over with their tails wagging, shouted happily around him, stretched out their tongues and puffed out snow-white hot steam.

Look up, there are several cats squatting in the corridor.

But compared with the enthusiasm and excitement of the dogs, the cats looked much calmer and dignified, sitting there "watching" all this.

Xu Mingyi was inexplicably infected by the happiness of the dogs. His face was full of smiles. He looked up and asked him, "Why are there so many cats and dogs here?"

"They are a group of homeless little things brought back from the outside."

Wu Chiu provoked a rhubarb dog, but he obviously didn't have much strength on his feet. He just reminded him to make way.

Xu Mingyi followed him forward and said sincerely, "young master Wu is really a good man."

From the fact that he raised Tianmu, she could see that he was a person who was kind to small animals. No matter how bad such a person was, she couldn't be worse - so in previous and present lives, she always thought Wu Cui was a good man.

"..." Wu Tsui felt his feet stagnate.

Can't you change the compliment?

They took Sui Jiang to a warm Pavilion on the side of the backyard hall.

Wu Chiu said to Xu Mingyi, "people in the secret room need to go down from here, but it should be colder. Sit here. If I can't find out, try your method again."

Sui Shan is different from ordinary people, even from ordinary dark guards. He has suffered a lot since he was a child. It is conceivable that Miss Xu's method may not be useful to him no matter how painful it is.

Therefore, he also admitted that he brought Miss Xu purely because he wanted to stay with her for a while.

Xu Mingyi nodded and sat down in a chair.

Seeing this, Wu Tsung did not hurry down to the secret room, but without saying a word moved the brazier covered with a fumigation cage in the corner to her.

Then, he opened the mechanism with Sui Jiang and went down to the secret room.

Seeing the bookshelf closed again, Xu Mingyi's eyes fell back to the fumigation cage in front of him, stretched out his hands and roasted, and the cold all over seemed to be dissipated by the warmth.

In the dark secret room, Sui Shan, whose hands and feet were bound by iron chains on the stone pillars, heard the movement and didn't lift his head, as if he had passed out.

Although he didn't seem to have too much blood on his body, he didn't suffer less these days, but most of them were unusual skin and flesh injuries.

"Still won't say?"

Wu Tsung stood three steps away from him and asked aloud.

Hearing the sound, Sui Shan raised his head slightly, covered by his scattered hair, revealing a pair of red blood eyes.

"My subordinates are ashamed of the childe..."

His voice was hoarse and said, "there's nothing worth worrying about. Please give your subordinates a good time..."

Wu Tsung looked at him with an unpredictable look in his eyes.

"I'm more and more curious - what's the secret that you can keep without your life?"

Sui Shan pulled the corners of his mouth feebly.

"You really asked the wrong person."

"Really?" Wu Chiu said: "Jiang, your age, said that at the beginning, pretending to die was just to get away, which had nothing to do with the mountain bandits - but I want to ask you, how did we deceive you by such an ordinary means when we were drugged in the food in the inn? And why did you persist in arranging the scene of pretending to die after you were drugged and blocked me "Yes?"

"Or are you the only one who hasn't been poisoned by this overpowering drug from beginning to end?"

After asking these questions, Wu Tsui didn't expect the other party to answer, but said, "Sui Shan, there are too many flaws in your words."

Sui Shan's lips moved a few times, but he didn't speak.

At this time, the boy in sight took a step forward.

The next moment, the boy's cold and calm voice spread in the empty secret room——

"I've been thinking for a long time, but I can't think of a second answer. It seems that the only thing in the world that can make you willing to do so is the Wu family."
