Chapter 332: Wen Chao

The Fifth Young Mistress was named Ma Xiaowan.

She had read many books since childhood and was famous in the Undying City for her talent and beauty; it was very natural for such a talented woman to marry into the He family of the Undying City.

But at this time.

The situation of this talented woman was not wonderful; she was pressed on the bed and couldn't move.

Wu Xian covered her mouth, Du E pressed her legs, and the two worked together to control her.

"Don't scream!"

"Ah... don't bite either, it will attract ghosts!"

"We two can't be counted as good people, but at least we are still people; you don't have to be so afraid..."

After Wu Xian and the other two came out of the mass grave, they happened to appear in the Fifth Young Mistress's room; in order not to attract those retainers, they could only control Ma Xiaowan first.

The two talked for a long time before Ma Xiaowan agreed not to make noise anymore.

As a result, as soon as they let go.

Ma Xiaowan took an awl and held it against her throat, looking like she would commit suicide if they didn't agree.

Wu Xian sighed.

They had just returned from the mass grave and had a lot of information to exchange; originally they wanted to discuss it in the Fifth Young Mistress's boudoir, but looking at Ma Xiaowan's terrified appearance, it was better to change to another place.

"Do you know which room Du Rushi lives in? We are her friends..."

Creak...

The door closed.

Ma Xiaowan leaned against the door, her heart beating thump thump.

Accompanied by the gradual stabilization of her breathing, Ma Xiaowan started to regret; she originally thought those two were flower-picking thieves, but didn't expect that after she gave the address, they actually left.

This was enough to prove that they had no malicious intent.

And in the He family.

People without malicious intent are simply too hard to encounter.

"Ma Xiaowan, Ma Xiaowan, why are you so stupid? Maybe those two could have saved you from this devil's den; now it's too late to say anything..."

Despite the regret.

Ma Xiaowan didn't dare to chase them out, because it was already night.

She had just walked away from the door when she suddenly heard a knocking sound.

"Did they come back?"

"Yes, it must be them; although the night of the He family has no moonlight monsters, it is not a place where one can walk around at will!"

Ma Xiaowan opened the door full of expectation, only to find that the person standing at the door was not the Wu Xian and Du E she was looking forward to, but a gentle old man and a woman wearing a veil hat.

Having learned the lesson from last time.

Ma Xiaowan didn't refuse the two immediately, but chatted tentatively for two sentences.

After chatting, she knew that these two were in the same group as the young man and woman before; they came to the He family for the correct funeral and were good people.

So she invited the two into the room enthusiastically.

During the chat, Ma Xiaowan was shocked by Wen Chao's erudition; it was the first time she had encountered such a person.

And Wen Chao also had a good impression of Ma Xiaowan; Jiang Chun's appearance was somewhat similar to his wife, while Ma Xiaowan's temperament of having read many books was exactly the same as his wife.

So he asked Ma Xiaowan: "Can you do me a favor?"

Ma Xiaowan had something to ask of others, so she nodded and said: "Sir, please speak; if I can do it, I will definitely help you."

"My wife and I have a very good relationship..."

Wen Chao started to tell Ma Xiaowan the story of his wife; the relationship between the two moved Ma Xiaowan very much; when the topic reached the end, Wen Chao sighed. "When my wife died, I did a wrong thing; this matter has always been a thorn in my heart; I really want to know if she will hate me or forgive me, so I want to consult you."

Ma Xiaowan wiped the corner of her eye: "Your relationship with your wife is so deep; no matter what wrong thing you did, she should forgive you."

Wen Chao breathed a sigh of relief: "So that's it; then you will also forgive me, right..."

The rain gradually became smaller.

Wu Xian and the other two walked carefully in the mud and soon found Du Rushi's boudoir.

The night of the He family was even safer than the day; there were no moonlight monsters here, and because of the line of sight, those retainers were not easy to discover them.

Du Rushi was happy when she knew it was Wu Xian and the other two who came to find her, and welcomed them in enthusiastically.

The room was very clean, with a faint fragrance; because the male host only came once in a long time, the decoration of the room was based on Du Rushi's preferences.

Such an environment easily makes people relax; Wu Xian and the other two wiped the rain off their bodies and started talking about the discoveries of entering the mass grave this time.

Wu Xian used Du Rushi's towel to wipe his hair, because due to the influence of the rain, his explosive curly hair was finally pressed down.

"Our approach has to be changed; we can't just snatch things from the grave head; I don't want to be treated as a thief again."

When the consumptive ghost shouted to catch the thief, it was definitely one of the most embarrassing moments of Wu Xian's life.

Wu Xian continued.

"According to my observation, the door of the thatched cottage is in the shape of a tombstone; we should be able to enter the room directly through the tombstone, so we won't attract all the ghosts around."

"In addition, there is order there; although our behavior is restricted, this may not be a bad thing, because we can also use order, such as directly asking and trading openly!"

Du E nodded and added: "Yes, we can also threaten, kidnap, bribe; isn't there an 'official' there? We can put gu on the 'official' and directly control him to help us find things."

Wu Xian's mouth twitched; Du E's train of thought was still as dark as ever.

However...

This is quite good.

Du Rushi listened with confusion on the side; she couldn't understand the content of the discussion between these two, and... it seemed to be things that bad people do.

Du E paused.

"No matter what we do next, there is one thing that must be solved in advance, and that is the time we enter the mass grave; if we don't figure out the time, we won't be at ease no matter what we do."

This time they escaped the predicament because the time arrived; next time they might miss the opportunity because the time was too late.

Wu Xian laughed: "Don't worry about this; the time should be twenty minutes, and the error won't be too big; we will make plans based on this time."

Du E was surprised: "How do you know?"

"Calculation."

Wu Xian raised his chin proudly.

"From the moment I entered the mass grave, I was subconsciously counting the time, counting silently in my heart, and hooking my fingers every minute."

"Of course, there was some interference in the middle, so this statistic can't be said to be very accurate."

"But the error won't be too big."

This is a skill Wu Xian has mastered recently; since he can't bring a clock into the blessed land, let himself become a human clock.

With this time, the two's exploration of the mass grave will be much smoother.

Just at this moment.

The three people in the room suddenly heard a knock on the door...

At this time, who would be the person knocking on Du Rushi's door?
