Half an hour ago, a group of people stumbled and ran out of the banquet hall. They didn't know how long they had escaped. When they stopped, they found that the crow that had been chasing behind them had long since disappeared, and they were standing in a narrow forest. On the trail, when you look up, you can only see a dense hazel tree.
Several people looked at each other, and a woman began to complain: "Finally stopped running! My legs are about to break!"
Her name is He Yun, and she is a young lady from a rich family. She has been pampered and raised since she was a child, and she has never suffered from such hardships since she was born.
Up to now, she still wears a pair of 7-8 cm high heels on her feet. If her husband hadn't pulled her, she wouldn't know how many times she would have fallen down on the way to escape, but she didn't appreciate it, and pointed the cannon at him : "It's all your fault! If you hadn't received the invitation letter, how could we have come to such a ghostly place! Now it's all over, how do we go back?"
Who knows if those crows will be waiting for them outside!
Her husband He Zhengwei kept apologizing to her, saying soft words to be careful with her, but she couldn't calm down. At this time another woman said: "Okay, Xiaoyun, we didn't expect this to happen before we came, and Zhengwei didn't mean it. Besides, I also received the invitation letter. Do you want to blame me for dragging it down?" Everyone?"
When He Yun heard the woman speak, she put away her domineering appearance, and she snorted: "Of course not, how can this wimp be compared with Sister Qiang?"
He Yunwei was used to this kind of treatment, and he didn't argue, with a helpless wry smile on his face.
Ye Qiang glanced at the two of them, and stopped talking: "I know Xiaoyun, you are sensible. The most urgent thing now is how to get out of this weird manor. Xiaoyun, check your phone, can you make a call?" ?”
If you can contact the outside world, you can seek help.
He Yun also understood what she meant, she opened the handbag that she had been holding tightly in her hand all this time. The others either didn't carry it at the beginning, or lost it on the way to escape. She was the only one who took out her mobile phone.
"No, there is no signal." He Yun glanced at it and shook his head.
"..." Everyone suddenly fell silent.
Their drivers are now parked at the gate of the manor. When they entered the manor, the manor owner sent a car to pick them up. At that time, the car drove for more than an hour before reaching the gate of the banquet hall. It is conservatively estimated that they are now dozens of kilometers away from the gate. The five people present were all quite wealthy and delicate, especially Ye Qiang's husband, who was already in his fifties or sixties, and his physical strength couldn't keep up, so he might not be able to go out at all.
The most important thing is that they don't know where the gate is, and even if they really want to go out, they can't find the way.
They didn't know that the manor existed in an independent space, and even if they found the gate, they couldn't get out without the owner's permission.
The complexions of several people were not very good, and He Yun raised his eyebrows even higher, and couldn't help but want to get angry again.
At this time, Ye Qiang put the high-heeled shoes in her hand on the ground with a snap: "I remember that the car was driving north when we came in, and we will definitely be able to get out if we go south. Even if we can't get to the gate, we can't stay. Here, who knows if there are wolves or anything in these woods? We must find a place to spend the night."
From the very beginning, she was faintly the backbone of the few people. As soon as she spoke, her husband Gu Baixi nodded and said vaguely: "Ah Qiang, you are right."
He Yun glanced at her and said, "I listened to Sister Qiang."
As for her husband and Gu Baixi's illegitimate child, the two had no right to speak at all, so they nodded in agreement at this time.
Ye Qiang put on the shoes she took off to escape. She couldn't do without them. There were countless gravels and broken branches on the ground, and her feet would be scratched if she didn't wear them.
Ye Qiang identified the direction, and the five people started to walk south, probably because they were lucky, and after a short while, a house with a pointed roof appeared in front of them. Come.
"Someone!" He Yun showed joy, and immediately quickened his pace, walking towards the house.
The others behaved like her, seeing the house with lights on and hearing the singing, it was like a shot in their hearts - if someone had someone, it meant they could ask for help!
Only Ye Qiang showed hesitation, but seeing how excited they were, she didn't say anything.
When they got closer, they also saw black roses all over the wall, swaying in the wind under the cover of night, sending bursts of strong floral fragrance.
Ye Qiang couldn't help but stopped. Somehow, she remembered something, and her fingertips trembled slightly. No one noticed her strangeness. Seeing her stop at the door, He Yun specially gave her a hand: "Sister Qiang, why are you in a daze! Come in!"
"..." Ye Qiang didn't react, and was immediately pulled in by her.
After entering, they realized that it was a small opera house. The seat is covered with red velvet cushions, which is soft and comfortable at first glance.
He Yun immediately pulled Ye Qiang to sit on it: "I'm going to be exhausted after walking for so long. Fortunately, there is a seat here to take a rest... Sister Qiang, what's wrong with you? You look so ugly?"
At this time, Gu Zhaodong had just graciously supported Gu Boxi to sit down, when Ye Qiang said firmly, "No! We'll leave right away! We can't stay here!"
"Sister Qiang?" He Yun didn't understand why Ye Qiang said that, "It's hard for us to take a break..."
"You don't understand! There is definitely something wrong here!" Ye Qiang no longer had the calmness before, and her whole body was filled with irritability, "We heard someone singing when we were outside, have you seen anyone now? If there is someone here, look Why didn't someone show up? If there was no one, then what was singing just now?"
He Yun's face turned pale at what she said, she thought about it carefully, and her words trembled: "... Sister Qiang, have you noticed that the singing stopped as soon as we came in?"
"..." The others were stunned for a moment, and they couldn't help but shudder when they found out that this was the case. Ye Qiang finally said, "Let's leave immediately!"
They hurriedly wanted to leave the chair and run out the door, but to their horror, they found that they seemed to be glued to the chair, unable to stand up at all! Not only that, but gradually, they found that their bodies were beginning to lose control, so they sat upright on the chairs maintaining a terrified expression.
When Xia Nuo and Kan Chen entered the opera house, Xia Nuo saw several black figures sitting upright in the first row, and couldn't help sighing: "So there are other audiences besides us?"
Seeing the way the little puppet threatened and lured them to come, he thought it was because there was no one to support it, so it insisted on inviting them!
Looking at it now, although there were only a few spectators d Xia Nuo counted, there should be five people dd but it is not too shabby.
Kan Chen took a look and understood what was going on. But he glanced at the cheerful young man holding a bouquet beside him, but he still didn't say anything.
Compared with its brother, the shy little puppet led them to sit next to him. Xia Nuo was only one seat away from Ye Qiang next to him. Seeing Kan Chen's gaze, it softly explained He said: "This is the place with the best view. Dad told me to let you sit here."
It really didn't lie, but Xia Nuo wanted to laugh when he heard it: "But I can't see it, what's the use of having a good vision?"
"Oh dd?" The little puppet exclaimed, looked at his dark eyes, and said with emotion, "I didn't notice it at all just now! Is it inconvenient for you? Do you want Dad to change it for you?" One pair of eyes? My brother and I have already changed three pairs of eyes, and each pair of eyes can see clearly!"
Eyes can also be replaced? Xia Nuo was a little surprised when he heard it at first, but after thinking about it, the brothers are all puppets, and the eyes are just parts to them, so naturally they can change them whenever they want.
"It shouldn't work, right? I have a different physique from yours. I'm just an ordinary human being." He said so.
"Ordinary human beings? No, you are clearly Mr. Kan Chen's favorite... um!"
The little puppet was strangled by the neck, unable to say anything, leaving only Xia Nuo with a blank face: Mr. Kan Chen's what? Why don't you continue talking
The little puppet desperately shook his head to express that he would not continue talking. Kan Chen gave it a threatening look, and slowly let go of his hand.
The little puppet who survived the catastrophe didn't dare to stay in this place of right and wrong, and left quickly after saying "I'll go to the backstage to see Dad".
"What he wanted to say just now was..." Xia Nuo turned his head and "looked" at the man beside him.
Kan Chen chuckled: "It's nothing, right? Children just like to talk nonsense, who knows what they are thinking all day long?"
But after he finished speaking, he fell into deep thought.
Just now he subconsciously stopped the puppet from continuing, but think about it, did the puppet say anything wrong? Didn't he always treat the boy as a cute little pet? Why would I not want it to say that word
He suddenly remembered the warm and soft kiss that fell on his face not long ago, and the faintly uncontrollable heartbeat after the kiss.
Perhaps, the boy is not just a pet to him. But he couldn't give a specific answer to what he regarded the boy as. perhaps…
Kan Chen closed his eyes, unwilling to think about it any further.
"It's true." He heard the young man next to him say in a clear and pleasant voice, "The children nowadays are quite incomprehensible..."
Without turning his head, he can imagine the young man's appearance now, he must be nodding solemnly while saying this, as if responding to his own words...
Thinking of this, he didn't even realize that the corners of his mouth had already curled up quietly.
Xia Nuo thought of the children in the neighbor's house in the real world, and he thought about it all the time, and his thinking was very jumpy. Maybe one second he was showing off toys to you, and the next second he is praising the heroes in anime.
Thinking about it this way, the little puppet's behavior of running away in the middle of a sentence is not so abrupt, after all, it is a child.
But Xia Nuo didn't know that the child in his eyes was actually several years older than him!
The scene rewinds to the moment when they entered the opera house.
Li Charlie was sitting on a bench in the backstage, beside a beautiful woman wearing a black veil, he held the woman's hand tightly, and said in an upside-down manner: "Vivi, today's show is for you, You must take a serious look... I have grown a lot in these years, and I am no longer the old wimp... By the way, you must perform well, the success of this new drama depends on your performance... "
The woman sat in silence, not reacting to his words. At this time, the elder brother of the little puppet people poked his head out from behind the door, and seeing his appearance, he rolled his eyes in disgust: "Father, you are still leading the window cutting here. The big-legged girl is cunning and playing with branches." reel x play
"Oh dd!" Charlie Li hurriedly stood up, pushing his glasses nervously, "The guests are already here! Is the owner of the manor here too? I have been thankful for his care for so many years, and I have always wanted to thank him. Today Finally got a chance to…”
"Father!" The little puppet yelled, stopping him from continuing, "It's really too late to continue!"
It tugged at a woman in a chair and pushed her onto the stage, pulling and tugging. The scarlet curtain slowly opened, and the woman appeared on the stage stiffly.
The moment Ye Qiang saw her, his eyes suddenly widened.
In fact, when she saw Kan Chen and Xia Nuo coming in, she still wanted to ask them for help. No matter what, as long as you are a normal person, seeing them like this, why would you think something is wrong? But no matter how anxious she was, how much she wanted to speak, she couldn't make a sound, and could only watch them pass by her.
But soon, she also discovered that something was wrong with those two people. That tall man clearly noticed their plight, but turned a blind eye to it! And that cute young man has dull eyes, he is blind at all! However, even if the young man is not blind, Ye Qiang feels that he cannot be counted on. Seeing how intimate he is with that desperate man, you can tell that he is not a good person either!
Not only that, but what frightened her the most was that the one leading the way was not a human being, but a puppet that could run, jump and talk, just like a living person!
When the puppet passed by her, he made a face at her, said something, and then left with a smile.
She didn't realize it at the time, but thinking about it now, it seemed to say dd "Long time no see, Mom."
As soon as the woman on the stage opened her mouth, Xia Nuo knew why Mr. Kan Chen gave such a low evaluation before. There is no other reason, the female singer's voice is really ugly!
It was as if rough stones were rubbing together, or as if a carving knife was slashing across wood. From the moment she opened her mouth, Xia Nuo didn't pay attention to what she sang, and all her attention was on how to stop herself from suffering. This torture is on.
"Mr. Kan Chen." Xia Nuo leaned into the man's ear and whispered, "Can we escape secretly?"
"Mr. Kan Chen? Mr. Kan Chen..." The man didn't answer his question, Xia Nuo noticed that he seemed to be in a trance, so he called his name softly a few times.
Kan Chen: "!!!"
Xia Nuo felt that his hand that was originally on the armrest of the seat was suddenly clenched. The big hand that was originally covering it seemed to be afraid that he would run away, and suddenly closed its fingers, with a bit of force, Xia Nuo couldn't help but let out a low cry of pain.
"Sorry." The man let go of his hand quickly, his voice was still a little hoarse, with some inexplicable emotions in it, "What did you just say?".
"I mean, can we sneak away?" Shano repeated in a good-humoured manner.
"I'm afraid not." The man looked towards the corner leading to the backstage, "Charlie Li is currently hiding behind the scenes and peeping."
