In the darkness, the double-eaves mountaintop stood quietly, like a crawling beast.

The brackets are like embroidery, the beams and columns are covered with clouds, the decorations are exquisite, surrounded by algae patterns, and between the green and red pillars, the shadows are painted with clouds and clouds.

This is an ancestral hall.

In the wide courtyard in front of the gate, an ancient pine tree is planted, with a crown like a canopy, and its jagged peaks cover most of the courtyard.

At this moment, there is no one around.

Only inside the ancestral hall, the five sons were admitted to the imperial examination, and there was a slight glimmer of light in the rows of melons and fans.

A faint light came from the case.

The golden nanmu open-carved high case with chi pattern, upturned head and curling cloud pattern has lost its fresh wood color over the years. Instead, it has a slightly darker and softer color, which makes it appear more dignified and steady.

Two melon-style blue gauze palace lanterns burn quietly.

The dim light illuminated a simple shrine at the top.

The beaded curtain was rolled up, and behind it was a figure with no facial features and a face as smooth as a mirror.

The dark wind howled from all directions, passing through the courtyard and between the rooms, and the shrill sounds were intermittently heard.

"Yu" suddenly opened his eyes, and as soon as he moved his body, he found that his forehead was pressed against the ground, the cold touch seemed to penetrate into the bone marrow, and his legs and feet were numb, without any feeling.

He is kneeling on the ground!

"Yu" frowned, and his originally somewhat sickly and stunned look became more and more depressed.

Immediately afterwards, he discovered that his cultivation level was gone!

After being slightly startled, "Yu" immediately took a deep breath, sat up from the ground, and carefully observed his surroundings.

What you see upon entering is a rather spacious hall, with nothing around it and no furniture. The most eye-catching thing is the confession table and the shrine above.

"Yu"'s eyes quickly fell on the faceless statue.

But he saw that it was a man in commoner clothes, wearing mango shoes, sitting cross-legged in the shrine. His face was empty, with nothing on it, and it looked particularly strange.

After staring at the statue for a moment, "Yu"'s expression suddenly became serious. After thinking carefully, he immediately knelt down in front of the statue again regardless of his still numb legs and feet.

You can still hear needles in the ancestral hall.

Time passed slowly, and outside the window lattice, the dark clouds surged away like a tidal wave. Soon, the bright white moonlight flowed silently and sprinkled the clear light all over the ground.

The dark wind blew by and the ancient pines were whistling.

There are bits of rotten silver leaking between the branches and leaves, like frost and snow.

The cool and soft moonlight shines over the pine branches on the door of the ancestral hall, and the fan covered with mulberry paper gradually reflects various strange silhouettes.

The silhouettes soon began to move, wander, and whisper.

However, as if restricted by something, the silhouette's range of activities never entered the ancestral hall.

※※※

Fish and grass were fished, lanterns were hooked on the pillars, and the angry wind lanterns illuminated the dim and chaotic halo.

A figure in a line of colorful clothes and brocade boots, wearing a mask made of iron, was walking somewhat staggeringly.

Outside the railing, there are sparse flowers and trees. From time to time, the cold wind undulates, the branches and leaves are caressing, and there is a hidden whimper in the rustling.

Pei Ling panted and walked into a small garden.

Coming out of his room and out of the private courtyard, there is a deep path surrounded by flowers and trees. At the end of the path, there is a white marble arch bridge. Water flows under the bridge, and there are suspicious movements of fish and snakes emerging from the water. It is difficult to identify the specific situation in the night.

, only the gurgling sound can be heard.

After crossing the bridge, there is a moon cave gate surrounded by curved patterns.

Behind the door there are many pavilions, rockeries, ponds, laurel trees and orchids everywhere, making it seem like an extremely huge backyard.

The place where he is now is one of the small gardens in the backyard.

Perhaps it was because it was dark, so all the pavilions were dimly lit, and not a single human voice could be heard.

However, for such a big house, he didn't see any other owners along the way. He didn't even see any guards, servants, or maids?

Pei Ling was confused, but because of his health, he had to sit down on a stone bench in the small garden to catch his breath.

Now we need to find out who else lives in this house.

His identity is a young master, but if he is the only young master in this house, and the maid just now, it will be difficult for him to find any useful clues in the future!

In addition to confirming the situation of the people living in the house, he also had to explore the residence of the owner of the house.

Under normal circumstances, in a house where it is obvious that there is a big problem at first sight, the owner of the house must know the most inside information!

I just don’t know whether the owner of this house is dead or alive...

"The inheritance of the 'curse' is divided into two parts. The first is the curse; the second is the fight for the way."

"The first two opportunities for the 'curse' were similar."

"This time of creation, most likely it will not depart from these two points."

"As long as I find out one or two safe rules, I can try to use the system..."

While thinking, Pei Ling's body also regained some strength. He was about to move forward when he suddenly heard a faint female voice: "Miss, where are you...Miss..."

"Miss……"

"Where are you……"

"Miss... where are you..."

Upon hearing this, Pei Ling immediately stood up and hid behind a big tree nearby.

After a while, I saw a maid wearing a flat bun and an indigo embroidered plum blossom skirt emerge from behind a clump of flower trees.

Her face also wore a mask that looked like it was made of iron, and when the hem of her skirt fluttered, a pair of exquisitely embroidered shoes were revealed.

Many parts of the embroidered shoes have been wet by the night dew, and there are also many traces of vegetation.

The maid didn't find Pei Ling. She looked around and called "Miss" while heading in one direction.

Pei Ling immediately held his breath and concentrated, and his mind was racing. The voice of this maid was completely different from the one who just entered his room. Although the two people were dressed somewhat similarly, their body shapes, manners, etc. were all different. They were obviously not the same person.

personal.

But he doesn't know that the young lady this maid is looking for is his current elder sister or younger sister?

Or maybe it’s an outsider, for example, the pink bride!

Pei Ling couldn't determine the situation for a while. Seeing the maid gradually disappearing away, he thought quickly and decided to follow her to see the situation.

If the young lady the other party finds is really a pink bride, this situation is definitely a good thing for him!

First, knowing the identity of the pink bride in advance would allow him to seize the opportunity to a certain extent!

The second point is that at the critical moment, he can use the system to host the "Secret Book of Six Desires" and use this dual cultivation method to open up the situation.

Of course, he didn't really see the pink bride at the moment, nor was he really forced into a desperate situation, but he didn't dare to do this directly.

Because he is still not sure whether this is an illusion?

Once he uses the system for hosting, what should he do if the system gives him some messy and life-threatening things?
