Chapter 231 - 231 Do You Know What's Down Here?
231 Do You Know What’s Down Here?
As she had just walked out of embarrassment, Yun Ran really did not know what to say to him.
She silently retreated from his arms and walked forward.
Unexpectedly, he grabbed her wrist again.
“What?”
As soon as Yun Ran spoke, she realized that there was something wrong with her voice. It was probably because the parasitic poison in her body had just acted up, but her voice sounded delicate.
“Mo Chengwang captured you and wanted to dig out your heart to treat Yun Qingqing’s illness?”
A low and deep voice came from behind her. Yun Ran paused because she did not expect him to ask her about this first thing.
“Yes, that happened, but he and his subordinates were a little stupid, so I broke free and escaped. Oh, it was that time when I bumped into you bathing.”
Yun Ran tried her best to make her voice sound normal and unaffected by what had just happened.
“Did they hurt you?”
Yun Ran was speechless.
Was he asking too much?
“No.”
Yun Ran felt that there was no need for him to interfere in the grudge between her and Mo Chengwang.
“Let’s go.”
After receiving her answer, Mo Beiyuan did not continue asking.
The two of them walked out of the rockery and arrived at the Yun family’s ancestral hall not long after.
It was the place in the Host’s memory.
The lock on the outside of the ancestral hall was unlocked, and there was still candlelight flickering inside, indicating that someone was inside.
Under normal circumstances, this ancestral hall would be locked from the outside.
“It might be Yun Zhiyuan. He likes to stay in the ancestral hall.”
In order not to alert the enemy, they could only wait for Yun Zhiyuan to come out of the ancestral hall.
They waited for the entire night.
It was almost dawn when Yun Zhiyuan walked out of the ancestral hall and left in a hurry.
Yun Ran wanted to take out the lockpicking tools she had prepared in advance and show off her superb lockpicking skills, but she heard a click. When she looked again, the solid lock on the door had been pried open by someone with his bare hands.
The two of them pushed the door open and entered. The first thing they saw was the ancestral hall with the ancestor tablets. There was nothing special about it.
But with just a glance, Yun Ran was certain of one thing. “There should be a darkroom here. We just don’t know where the entrance is. Let’s look hard.”
The two of them split up. Yun Ran was in charge of the left side, while Mo Beiyuan went to the right side to search.
The furnishings here were very simple. There were only so many things that could be seen at a glance. The first thing Yun Ran noticed was the memorial tablets of the ancestors.
After her observation, she discovered that the name written on one of the memorial tablets was partly worn out, but the other parts were very new.
Yunran picked it up and took a good look, only to discover that there was something like a mechanism under the base of the memorial tablet.
She tried to turn it.
She heard the sound of a mechanism being opened, and a small dark room entrance appeared on the ground in front of her.
Yun Ran took out the lighter and was about to probe down when she was stopped by Mo Beiyuan. He took the lighter from her hand. “I’ll go down and take a look first. Stay here and don’t move.”
Yun Ran was puzzled. “Why?”
Mo Beiyuan asked her with deep eyes, “Do you know what’s down here?”
Yun Ran said, “I don’t know! I just want to go down and take a look!”
Mo Beiyuan realized that this woman really did not know what fear was. She actually dared to barge into such a dark room. “Aren’t you afraid that there will be something dangerous next?”
Yun Ran blinked and finally understood. “So, you didn’t let me go down because you were worried that there was danger down there?”
Mo Beiyuan glanced at her. “What do you think?”
“I thought you didn’t want me to cause trouble with you.” After all, Yun Ran had misunderstood him and smiled at him shyly.
Actually, it was not her fault, because she had always been at the forefront in the apocalypse.
No one had ever stopped her and said to her, “There might be danger ahead. I’ll go take a look first. Stay in a safe place and don’t move.”
