Chapter 314 The Dry Well Puzzle-
Qin Huan looked at Song Weichen who was playing the piano in front of him in trance. Normally at his age, he would have lost interest in women, but for some reason he felt something different about the violinist named Sang Pu in front of him.
"The goddess of lust has arrived, and the soul is in the palace."
She played the song "Shen Ren Chang" so superbly that it seemed as if this place was not a drunken banquet, but a place of sacrifice to the Wushan gods, and she was like a devout shamanic priest, worshiping the gods with her spiritual music.
It was clear that the banquet was full of wine and meat, but Qin Huan actually smelled the scent of agarwood and sandalwood, and felt a little clearer and purer in his heart.
Thinking of his cherished first wife, Qin Xueying's biological mother, who had always had a faint scent of sandalwood on her body so many years ago, he felt a little strange about the folk piano girl he met for the first time. Good impression.
However, Qin Huan knew very well that the woman in front of him belonged to Mo Tingfeng.
Given my status and age, there are some thoughts that I shouldn’t have.
.
At the end of the song, Song Weichen subconsciously raised his head to look at Gu Cang Yue, only to find that he was lying lazily on the seat, with his head tilted and eyes closed, his elbows resting on his forehead, as if he had completely fallen asleep - he didn't listen at all.
She quickly withdrew her eyes, hiding her frustration for fear of revealing her true feelings.
"Okay, okay! This kind of musical creation can only be achieved by praising the goddess of Wushan."
Qin Huan praised loudly, which made Song Weichen panic and quickly stood up to salute and thank him.
Seeing that Qin Huan liked Song Weichen very much, Mo Tingfeng was naturally happy. Just about to strike while the iron was hot, he privately informed the realm master that Sang Pu was the newly promoted white-robed lord Song Weichen, and asked for a marriage. However, he saw a man dressed in black from a distance. Ding Heran, who was wearing robes, flashed into the hall - he did not sit down at his seat, but stood in the far corner of the hall holding his waist and abdomen, with faint traces of blood between his fingers, as if he had been injured.
Just as he was about to ask, Ding Heran's directional transmission heartbeat came over,
"Sir, something happened..."
"Wujiu suddenly attacked me so hard that I couldn't prevent him. If he hadn't been seriously injured in the first place, I might not have been able to come back."
……
"What?"
Mo Tingfeng was shocked, with a calm expression on his face, and excused himself to go to Huxuan after drinking too much.
He walked to Song Weichen and pulled her to Qin Xueying's banquet, whispering as he walked,
"Heran has something urgent to do with me. I have to go out. You stay with the eldest princess for now and protect yourself. I will be back soon."
"What happened? I'll go with you."
Song Weichen turned his back to the palace door and did not notice Ding Heran's arrival. However, when he heard that there was an emergency, he immediately thought that it must be related to the disappearance of Ruan Mianmian. This was the most important "private matter" of their banquet today, so naturally she could not be absent. .
"The Realm Lord's Mansion has many magic circles. It's safest for you to stay here. Remember, don't go anywhere, especially pay attention to Gu Cang Yue. I will ask Brother Ji to protect you secretly in the palace and wait for my return."
"But..."
Song Weichen was a little hesitant. It was always good to have multiple people and perspectives to look at the problem, but when she thought that she was a complete "waste" without a puppet master, she still compromised.
"Okay, I'll stay here to delay as much time as possible and divert the attention of the realm lord and the eldest princess from you. You don't have to worry about me. Be careful in everything."
While they were talking, the two of them had already arrived in front of Qin Xueying's table. Mo Tingfeng was about to ask her to sit over, but saw Qin Huan, who was sitting at the table, waving to the two of them.
"Miss Sangpu, come here and talk to me."
"Yes."
Naturally, Song Weichen did not dare and could not refuse. He quickly glanced at Mo Tingfeng, let go of his hand and walked towards the main table.
Mo Tingfeng looked at her back and thought that she would be safest with the realm master, so she said no more, nodded to Qin Huan, and turned towards the palace door.
.
As soon as he left the palace and before he reached a quiet place, Ding Heran couldn't hold on any longer and fell to one side. Mo Tingfeng stretched out his hand to hold him up. "My lord...this subordinate is incompetent..."
"No need to say this."
Mo Tingfeng used a technique to explore his waist. The injury was very serious. There was a hole the size of an egg. The cold air was overwhelming. It was obviously a penetrating injury caused by the golden water method.
Even though it could be seen that he had randomly given himself some gold wound medicine that he carried with him, blood was still oozing out.
Without any hesitation, Mo Tingfeng pulled out part of his mana with a spell, condensed it into a ball of light, and pushed it into the wound on Ding Heran's waist.
However, the wound solidified within a cup of tea. Although it was not fully healed, his mobility was basically restored.
Ding Heran solemnly bowed his head to Mo Tingfeng and clasped his fists, saying thank you for the great kindness. Silence is better than sound.
The two of them walked to a quiet place, and before he could speak, Ding Heran quickly reported everything that happened——
Things went smoothly at the beginning. Although there were many mysteries in the Realm Lord's Mansion, under the leadership of Ye Wujiu, the two of them felt as if they were in a deserted place. They quickly found the cellars, woodsheds, and warehouses along the way that were easy to hide people and things. Checked the place.
"My subordinates were surprised that Wu Jiu was so familiar with the terrain of the Realm Lord's Mansion, but he said he got it in a dream."
"It turned out that a few days ago, he dreamed that the Landlord's Mansion was submerged, and he found Ruan Guiren in a dry well. But when he arrived at the manor, he found that all the scenery was exactly the same as in his dream."

……
"In hindsight, this statement was suspicious, but my subordinates did not doubt Lao Ye at all at that time and followed him all the way to the so-called dry well."
"When we got there, there was indeed a well, but it was dry and not dry. There was a cave inside."
Ding Heran looked towards the dry well of the Realm Lord's Mansion, his eyes were complex and deep, as if he had penetrated the dark night of the Realm Lord's Mansion and returned to the time of the incident.
.
"Lao Ye, you are amazing! There is really a dry well here!"
Ding Heran poked Ye Wujiu with his elbow, with a flattering look on his face,
"Hey, where is the treasury of the Realm Lord's Mansion? Can you tell me quietly if you are a brother?"
Ye Wu Jiu ignored his joke, frowned, and leaned down to look into the dark well, sniffing lightly with the tip of his nose. There was no trace of water vapor. It seemed that it was indeed a dry well.
"This place has a weird barrier, so directional communication is useless. Just in case, I'll go down by myself, and you stay on top to watch. If I don't come back even after burning the incense, you can invite the adults here."
"The desolate birds in this place don't even come to poop. No matter what the wind, I will go down with you. At most, you will cover when there is danger. I will definitely leave you and run for your life without saying a word."
Ding Heran understood that Ye Wujiu was worried about the danger of this trip, so he deliberately found an excuse to stay on the lookout, but if the crisis was really serious, how could he let Ye Wujiu go to danger alone.
Knowing that he couldn't be persuaded, Ye Wu Jiu didn't say anything more.
The two of them each cast a layer of night vision on their eyes and walked downwards in sequence while holding on to the wall of the well.
Worried that there was a trap or an ambush in the well, Ye Wujiu took the lead. The two of them moved very slowly, and it took about half a stick of incense to finally reach the bottom - the bottom of the well was a round dry open space about four feet in diameter, filled with There were dead branches and leaves, but there was nothing abnormal, and there was no trace of Ruan Mianmian.
Obviously different from the scene in the dream, Ye Wujiu's dream no longer worked.
There is no weirdness, which is the biggest weirdness.
Why would the Realm Lord's Mansion leave such a dry well in this inaccessible and secluded place?
What is the unknown secret in this?
