Before the other two could react, A-Mo shot out from Xiao Jin's sleeve like lightning, grew taller against the wind, and instantly turned into a giant python as thick as a bucket with dark scales!
Its cold vertical pupils locked onto the altar, its mouth opened wide, and a jet-black breath with a fishy, sweet, and poisonous smell gushed out like a torrent!
Chi Chi Chi -!
The dim green candle flame was instantly extinguished by the poisonous breath. The vibrating tablets came into contact with the poisonous breath, as if they were splashed with strong acid, making a sharp "sizzling" sound. The dust and blurred words on the surface of the tablets quickly melted and corroded.
The shrill mumbling stopped abruptly, and the only sounds left in the ancestral hall were the sound of poisonous gas corroding wood and the sickening smell.
"It's okay, let's go!" Xiao Jin took a step calmly.
Amo, who had made a contribution, crawled back staggeringly. Bai Yang, who was behind him, accidentally glanced at Amo's vertical pupils and was suddenly startled.
Depend on!
Are the pets kept by big guys so unique these days?
Without giving it any more thought, since it was safe inside, the three of them began to search separately.
The ancestral hall is not very big and you can see the end at a glance, but there are several side rooms attached.
In a dusty study, Zhan Wenchen found several torn pages of family tree and fragments of letters.
He quickly pieced together the information, his brow furrowed. "The letter says that the Qin family has sought a son-in-law more than once... but the 'grooms' have always disappeared after the ceremony...
The family tree records that the Qin family had only one "young master" who died young. Furthermore, his name seemed to have been deliberately obscured, with no mention of a young lady.
There's nothing about the 'bride' in the letter, so…" He looked up suddenly, his eyes behind his glasses sharp as an eagle, "Who is the bride?!"
This matter was too important, so Zhan Wenchen quickly told Bai Yang and Xiao Jin about his discovery.
"That's unlikely. The wedding was obviously held in the Qin Mansion, how could there be no young lady!" Bai Yang did not quite agree with Zhan Wenchen's guess.
"Perhaps due to some unexpected circumstances, this young lady from the Qin Mansion has been kept hidden, and her name may not have been included in the family tree."
"Well. It's not impossible." Zhan Wenchen did not deny Bai Yang's point of view.
Xiao Jin stared thoughtfully at the tablet in the ancestral hall. "Then our next focus is obvious: to find out the identity of this 'bride'."
Soon, all the players learned about Xiao Jin and others' discovery.
They gathered together in the ancestral hall, and doubts were like cold poisonous snakes, instantly wrapping around the hearts of all the players.
"Could it be that there has never been such a bride?" At this time, Lu Jing spoke slowly, giving everyone a new idea.
He waved his hand. "Look, we've never met this Miss Qin from the beginning to the end. The housekeeper only said that we were the groom. Perhaps the 'bride' herself doesn't exist?"
No bride? Then who are they going to marry?
Bai Yang, Lu Jing and others didn't quite understand and were stunned.
It was Zhan Wenchen who first understood the meaning of Lu Jing's words.
"You mean, the 'bride' could be some other entity, like a symbol, a belief, or something more hidden?"
"That's right!" Lu Jing snapped his fingers, but at the end he did not forget to look at Chu Yuan with contempt.
"Look, a simple-minded person like you can't understand the thoughts of us smart people."
“Damn…” The veins on Chu Yuan’s forehead were throbbing, and flames were already faintly appearing on the palms of his hands.
Bai Yang, Lu Yiming, Liu Man and others who also didn’t understand Lu Jing’s words: “…” It seemed like they were injured by mistake!
Just as everyone was shaken by this discovery and tried to find more clues——
"Dear guest..." The dry and rigid voice of the butler exploded in everyone's ears without warning, with a chilling coldness that chilled one's bones.
"The mansion is a restricted area...you are not allowed to trespass..."
Everyone's expression changed drastically and they all turned back vigilantly.
The housekeeper's stiff figure seemed to emerge from the wall, silently blocking the center of the ancestral hall gate.
Behind him, a dozen or so "servants" wearing the same dark blue robes stood like wooden stakes.
Their faces were as stiff and pale as the butler's, with that same unchanging weird smile, and their cloudy eyes "looked" at everyone emptyly.
In his hand was a bright red paper lantern with the word "喜" (happiness) written on it, but the inner core emitted a faint green light.
A cold and resentful aura that was far larger and more condensed than any previous supernatural events came crashing down like a solid ice wall!
The air seemed to be frozen, and even breathing became painful.
"When did this guy come?" Chu Yuan felt a chill on his back and asked softly through gritted teeth.
As he said this, he glanced at Xiao Jin.
He didn't even notice it himself. Then among this group of people, the only one who might have felt it was Xiao Jin!
But Chu Yuan was disappointed.
Xiao Jin shook his head and stared at the butler's figure intently: "I didn't notice it, but I'm sure he has been listening for a while!"
Everyone was shocked.
Doesn't that mean that everything they just researched is known to the butler?
Then he...
In the tense atmosphere, players grabbed their items to prevent the NPC from attacking them. Xiao Jin leaned slightly, a murderous look in his eyes.
It seemed as if they were considering how likely it would be for them to clear the level early after killing all the NPCs.
But no one expected that things did not develop as they imagined.
Xiao Jin had already seen the constantly changing faces of the housekeeper and others, but at the last moment, the other party seemed to be suppressed by something and returned to their original dull state.
"Please... go back... to the wing..." The butler's voice carried an unquestionable pressure.
The knuckles on Lu Jing's whip creaked, Chu Yuan clenched his fists tightly, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes.
Zhan Wenchen quickly winked at Xiao Jin and shook his head slightly.
There seemed to be a faint halo flowing around Wen Baiqiu's fingertips, but it disappeared in an instant.
Seeing this, Xiao Jin held down the restless Amo and slowly sheathed his sword.
It seems that their mission can still continue, and the person behind the scenes does not want to overturn the table so early.
Moreover, if we insist on fighting, the cost is unknown and the clues have been cut off.
"Let's go." Xiao Jin's voice was as cold as ice, and he was the first to turn around.
However, she did not foolishly go back through the secret passage, but walked calmly past the butler and headed towards the wing room.
When passing by a group of NPCs, Xiao Jin could even feel the deep malice in the eyes of the people next to him.
Everyone was unwilling, but under this terrifying pressure, they could only grit their teeth and keep going.
The group of paper-like servants followed silently behind them like a funeral procession. The pale green light of the lanterns distorted everyone's shadows, making them look like ghosts.
The oppressive atmosphere was like a lead weight pressing on my heart.
It was not until they returned to the corridor where the West Garden wing rooms were located that the group of servants disappeared as if melting into the darkness.
