The master seemed to understand what Murong Xi said, that it was A-Lan's father who deceived that woman. A-Lan's father seemed unreliable, but he could actually deceive this woman?
This woman is so smart, how could she be fooled so easily?
"I'm really worried that this guy can deceive such a shrewd woman into coming back," the master said.
If A-Lan's father was smarter and brought this woman back, he wouldn't think too much about it. But this boy is useless. How could such a shrewd woman be easily deceived by him? It can only be said that this woman followed him for a purpose.
, and not just for the Leng family’s business.
"What Master said makes sense. Since A-Lan said that the woman was so shrewd, she started to arrange everything as early as after entering the house, and even poisoned his mother. I have to say that she arranged a huge network.
Even the people sent by A-Lan only thought that the woman was just coveting the Leng family's business. She is so smart, which made me feel that something was wrong." Murong Xi thought for a while and said.
"I trust your intuition, but no one dares to make a conclusion without seeing this woman." The master said.
"I'm really confused about the origin of this woman. After the incident with the Demon Cult, there are still people alive who know about the ancient tomb?" Murong Xi said doubtfully.
"I understand what you mean, that is, this woman is not because of the Leng family's business, but because A Lan's father is a Leng family member. Wait a minute..." the master said.
That woman deliberately wanted to enter the Leng family because the Leng family had been to the tomb before.
"Master's guess is correct. Her purpose is to know the situation of the ancient tomb, that is, the map of the ancient tomb." Murong Xi said.
"Why is it this ancient tomb? There are countless tombs that the Leng family has visited. It could also be other ancient tombs." said the master.
"Master, have you forgotten the poison? Moreover, she is a master at refining the poison, and she even deceived you." Murong Xi reminded.
The poison in the woman's hand came from the secret cave. Even if the woman didn't know the origin of the poison, it at least showed that she was related to the ancient tomb. Moreover, he diagnosed Allan's mother's pulse and always thought that Allan's mother was a poisoner.
Poisoned. Unexpectedly, Murong Xi discovered that A Lan's mother was poisoned by the poison from the secret cave. She was right. If it had nothing to do with this ancient tomb and the secret cave, how could this woman know how to practice poison?
"Yes, I understand." Master said.
"Master, when you go back, ask A-Lan about his second uncle. I know he was young that year and couldn't remember what happened. But he must remember about his second uncle." Murong Xi
After thinking for a while he said.
"I understand." The master responded.
A Lan has investigated the ancient tomb before, so he will not be unclear about the second uncle's affairs. Last time, he only mentioned it, but did not explain clearly what happened to the second uncle.
"I will send people to investigate this woman again, hoping to get good news." Murong Xi said.
After the master left Murong Xi's courtyard, he went directly to the side hall.
Seeing the master arriving in a hurry, A-Lan asked in surprise: "Are you coming back from the saint? Why are you in such a hurry?"
"I have something to ask you." Master said after sitting down.
"Is it still about that woman?" Alan asked.
"No, I know that you have investigated this ancient tomb. Although there are no clues, I know that you must know about your second uncle." The master paused before finishing his words.
"What happened to my second uncle? Why are you talking about my second uncle again? I have already told you what happened to my second uncle back then." A Lan asked in confusion.
"Did you really tell me everything about your second uncle?" Master asked.
Alan didn't expect that his master would be so serious. In the past, his master would not talk to him about this matter so seriously. Because his master knew that this was a taboo in their family. The old man had said that no one was allowed to mention this matter, so
, the master would never ask him such detailed and serious news about his second uncle.
It seems that the matter must be very serious, otherwise the master would not be like this. So, the experience of the second uncle and the others is the key to the matter?
"You should think about it slowly, and you can tell me when you have figured it out." After the master finished speaking, he planned to leave.
"Master, I don't want to hide it from you. The old man has told me, and it's not that you don't know. If you really want to know, A-Lan can just tell you." A-Lan stopped the master and said.
The master did not look back and said: "It's not that I want to know, but this matter is very important to you, even to the Leng family. If you don't want to talk about it, forget it."
After the Master finished speaking, he left the side hall without looking back.
Alan didn't expect that this matter would be related to the entire Leng family. Could it be that the woman's purpose was the ancient tomb?
But, how did that woman know about the ancient tomb? Moreover, the Leng family had only visited this ancient tomb once. How did this woman know about it? Or did this woman have other purposes?
He knew that the master must be anxious to know, otherwise he would not come here to ask him. So, he did not waste time and followed the master all the way to the main hall.
"Master." A Lan said with a playful smile.
"Why did you follow me here?" the master said with a straight face.
"Master asked knowingly, didn't I come here specifically to tell you about your second uncle?" A Lan said with a smile.
"Sit down, let's talk about this matter first. I know that because of this matter, the old man couldn't swallow this breath. I also specifically asked everyone not to mention what happened back then. Even because of what happened back then, the old man didn't let me
You have gone to the grave. However, the situation is a little different now. The woman should have come here for this matter, so we want to find out." The master thought for a while and said.
"It was two years after my second uncle's accident. My father took that woman back to Leng Mansion. At that time, my father went to Northern Xinjiang to do business. In fact, my grandfather had already made an agreement and asked my father to go there. Of course, things went smoothly.
Because my grandfather had already negotiated with them. Who knew that when my father came back, he would bring a woman back with him. Originally, my grandfather did not allow this woman to enter the house, so no need to think that my father would protect her. I just didn’t expect that he would tell my grandfather.
, that woman is already pregnant." A Lan shrugged and said.
‘What happened next?’ Master asked.
"Then? After she entered the house, she looked as soft and weak as if anyone could bully her. Every time she greeted her mother, she was respectful. My father has always been lustful, and my mother has already formed a habit. So I took him with me.
After the woman came back, the mother didn't take her seriously at all. She didn't expect that she would become arrogant after giving birth to the child and finishing the month. When the child was one month old, the father couldn't wait to announce that she had become an equal wife. The mother said nothing.
, and returned to his own yard. My mother fell ill at that time. I always thought that my mother’s health was not getting better because that woman was too mature to bear the blow. If my master had not appeared back then, my mother might now..."
Alan sighed and remembered what happened back then.
"I know that you have suffered a lot of grievances, and it's all my fault. If I had insisted on sneaking in, your mother wouldn't have been so serious." The master said.
"Master, let me continue, please don't feel guilty. Later, I was very careful, and my mother did not drink the medicine she sent. Because my mother was seriously ill, my father handed over the affairs of the Leng Mansion.
That woman." Alan said excitedly.
"I asked you to tell me about your second uncle, what did you do for this woman?" Master asked.
A Lan was a little embarrassed and said: "After I mentioned that woman just now, I became a little excited. In fact, I didn't know about my second uncle until later. I remember that at that time, I went to the study room where I was told to look for something. You
Knowing that I have always been interested in ancient tombs, I have liked to study mechanisms since I was a child. I have already memorized the mechanisms in my grandfather's study. After finding the mechanisms and entering the darkroom, I read some things about ancient tombs in there..."
It turns out that A-Lan was a little surprised when he found the record about his second uncle's accident. When he was about to leave, he came across an antique vase, and luckily he held it with his hand. Just when he was feeling lucky, he discovered that there was something in the vase.
.Alan put the vase upside down and the contents fell out. It turned out to be a picture scroll, what did he think it was.
A Lan patted the soil on it and called the picture out of curiosity.
It turned out that the scroll was painted with a map of Suoshan, and it was covered in blood. When the scroll was completely opened, a notebook fell out of the scroll.
A Lan picked it up, opened it, and looked through it, and found that the note was written by his second uncle. After placing the vase, he sat back on the chair and looked at it carefully.
His memory seems to be that his second uncle has not come back. Could it be that this note was written before going to the tomb? But there are blood stains on the scroll, so it must have been left by his second uncle.
He had always been curious about what happened back then, so he calmed down and took a look at what his second uncle had recorded.
"In other words, you actually found out what happened that year through your second uncle's notes? But didn't your second uncle come back? How could this note record things about the ancient tomb?" The master was also a little surprised.
asked.
"Master, please listen to what I have to say." A Lan said.
This scroll was left by our ancestors. The map on the top is Suoshan Mountain, and below is a very large ancient tomb. The second uncle went to see his grandfather, and his grandfather told him that the ancient tomb was very mysterious. The ancestor once left a message.
Don't go to the ancient tomb unless you have to. After hearing this, the second uncle wanted to go to the tomb even more, because no one had ever been to this ancient tomb. My grandfather initially refused to allow the second uncle to go, but the second uncle insisted on going.
My grandfather had no choice but to arrange for someone to go to the grave with him.
After they were very well prepared, they set off and left Leng Mansion. The journey went smoothly and they quickly arrived at the foot of Suo Mountain.
After all, Suoshan is the base of Fengtian Sect, so they moved very carefully. According to the records on the map, they quickly found the tree hole and entered the ancient tomb through the tree hole.
The first time it went so smoothly, they felt a little uncomfortable.
After all, the second uncle has experienced a lot and has been to many ancient tombs, but when entering the ancient tomb, it was so smooth. This gave the second uncle a very bad premonition, so after going down to the tomb, he reminded all brothers to be careful.
Be careful. When they entered the ancient tomb from the tomb passage, they found that it was like a maze. Not only did they not see the tomb chamber, but there were also many strange sounds coming from it.
Everyone has been to the tomb before, and they are all very courageous, so when the sound came out, they were not too surprised.
However, they did not expect that something unexpected happened to them, and this incident was something he would never forget.
