Chapter 171 Secret Room Ambiguity
Fu Linzhou was the first to step down the stairs: "Let's go."
The stairs wind their way down, and the walls of the passage are illuminated by spotlights.
Lu Zhi took a look at the secret passage extending underground. The end was pitch black, and a cold wind blew up from underground, which inexplicably brought a sense of eerie and strangeness.
She swallowed nervously and followed him down.
Suddenly, the stairs on the wall flashed down.
Lu Zhi was startled and quickly grabbed the corner of Fu Linzhou's clothes: "What's wrong?!"
Fu Linzhou noticed her nervousness and soothed her, "It must be because it hasn't been used for too long, the lamp is broken."
After a few flashes, the lamp went out completely.
The corridor was pitch black.
Lu Zhi became more and more frightened, and his calves were shaking. In an instant, all the images of deformed species, ghost brides, pale ghost claws crawling out of the ground, red embroidered shoes, and children's laughter came to his mind.
She didn't care about whether it was ambiguous or not, and quickly stuck to Fu Linzhou's back: "Yes, yes, yes...or should we go up?"
Fu Linzhou opened his hand, and a cluster of lightning lit up in his palm, with a soft light, illuminating the distance of one or two meters around the two of them.
Seeing the light, Lu Zhi felt relieved and moved closer with some curiosity: "Wow, your lightning is the same as Fu Xiaozhou's, it's amazing."
The feeling of going from the underworld to the temple in an instant makes people feel open and at ease.
She couldn't help but move closer, wanting to touch the lightning.
"Don't touch it." Fu Linzhou grabbed her wrist with his other hand and said helplessly, "You don't want your hand anymore?"
Lu Zhi looked at him: "What's wrong?"
Fu Linzhou: "This is thunder and lightning. If you, a half-baked cultivator, touch it casually, you will be burned by the electricity."
Lu Zhi touched his nose and said, "Okay."
The two fell silent, suddenly realizing that they were too close to each other.
For the first time, Lu Zhi felt Fu Linzhou's height advantage.
He was standing one step below her and seemed to be a little taller than her.
He seemed to be half a head taller than Gu Qiancheng.
However, Fu Linzhou usually behaves very gently, and the suits he wears are well-fitting and upright, so he does not give people a strong sense of oppression due to his height.
The lightning was only enough to illuminate a distance of one or two meters between the two of them, giving her the illusion that they were in a small, enclosed space.
In a very small range, the physical contact between the two people seems particularly abrupt and ambiguous.
Lu Zhi felt that the big hand holding his wrist was extremely cold, as if it was covered with a piece of ice, and its presence was very strong.
Same look in his eyes.
She looked away uncomfortably and said, "You... can let me go now."
Fu Linzhou withdrew his hand, turned around and continued to lead the way.
Lu Zhi followed him silently, frantically fanning her face to cool it down.
She is a married woman, and she is here today to pick out birthday gifts for Gu Qiancheng's elders, not to have an affair!
Lu Zhi, keep your female virtues!
She repeatedly brainwashed herself in her mind, constantly thinking of Gu Qiancheng's good points, and only then could she barely drive Fu Linzhou's black eyes, which had a strong presence, out of her mind.
The stairs stretched all the way down, seemingly without end.
Neither of them spoke, and the only sound in the secret room was the sound of their footsteps moving downwards.
There was also a cool breeze blowing.
Just as Lu Zhi couldn't hold it in any longer and was about to speak again, the stairs finally reached the bottom.
"arrive."
Fu Linzhou touched the switch on the wall and turned on the light.
The light came on, Lu Zhi squinted uncomfortably, and after a moment he could see the furnishings in the secret room clearly.
This secret room is very large, somewhat similar to a library, and is built in an ancient style.
But all kinds of strange and bizarre treasures are placed on the grids of each layer.
There are also piles of calligraphy and paintings.
Fu Linzhou took her to a bookshelf and said, "All that's on it are my grandma's calligraphy and paintings."
Lu Zhi glanced at the bookshelf that was taller than her and the various scrolls densely packed on it.
There are at least hundreds or even thousands of them...
Lu Zhi: “…So many?”
Fu Linzhou: "My grandmother loved painting when she was young."
His gaze fell on the corners of her red eyes: "You can pick them out. You can take them apart and ask Xiaobao and the others to reorganize them later."
upstairs.
Xiaobao suddenly sneezed: "A-chu!"
Dabao wiped the saliva from his face with a dark face: "Let's go, it's almost time."
Xiaobao waved his hands: "No, no, they haven't come up to pinch me yet."
Dabao: "When the Lord God comes up and finds that you turned off the light on the stairs of the secret room, you can see whether he will punish you or not."
Xiaobao shook his head like a grown-up: "You don't understand this."
He was confident.
Guessing that the work below should be almost done, he raised his hand and turned off the lights in the secret room.
Inside the secret room.
"Hey! Why are the lights out?" Lu Zhi was dumbfounded.
Fu Linzhou frowned slightly, probably guessing something.
He didn't point it out, but instead sent out another small lightning flame, which hovered nearby to illuminate the area. "Come closer to me, can you see me?"
Lu Zhi moved closer and glanced at the painting on the bookshelf: "I can barely see it."
Fu Linzhou: "Well, pick first."
Lu Zhi searched for a long time but couldn't find a suitable one.
She looked at Fu Linzhou with some embarrassment: "How about you help me choose one? I really don't know which one to choose. To be honest, I know nothing about these calligraphy and paintings."
Fu Linzhou thought for a moment and picked out a painting: "Then this one will be it, a painting of bamboo forest surrounded by snow."
Lu Zhi nodded: "Okay, that's it, let's go..."
She turned around to leave, but suddenly stepped on a round scroll. Her body tilted and she pounced towards Fu Linzhou.
The lightning floating nearby was extinguished by his sleeve.
Lu Zhi felt himself falling into the other person's arms. After a while, the world spun around and the two of them fell to the ground.
The cool scent of ambergris and the soft scent of gardenia are mixed together.
A sudden and inopportune thought popped into her mind.
Fu Xiaozhou is wrong.
Who said Fu Linzhou is hard to knock down?
He fell down with just one push, it was very easy.
She was a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry..."
As she spoke, her lips brushed against some part of his skin, causing him to groan.
Not the lips, she was sure.
But I don’t know where it is.
It’s icy cold and tender.
Lu Zhi became more and more embarrassed and tried to get up: "Sorry, sorry."
She didn't know where to put her hands. She only heard him take a deep breath in the darkness and accurately grasped her hand: "Don't touch me."
The low scolding voice made Lu Zhi blush, and he quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it..."
She really didn't mean it!
He knocked the person down, kissed her, and touched her.
Fu Linzhou wouldn't think that she was deliberately looking for an opportunity to seduce him, right?
Lu Zhi tried to get up in a panic, but his hands were held by someone.
She felt like she was lying on his long legs, because his knees suddenly bent and rubbed against her chest.
This time it was Lu Zhi's turn to be embarrassed.
But she didn't dare scream out loud, for fear that the other party would notice and make them both even more embarrassed.
There was a rustling of fabric.
The two men finally got up and the lightning fire was reignited.
Fu Linzhou's ears were very red.
Lu Zhi wasn't in much better shape either. She tidied her hair awkwardly.
Fu Linzhou: "You just..."
Lu Zhi quickly defended herself loudly, "I really didn't mean to take advantage of you just now! I swear, how could I, a person with a partner, take advantage of you?"
I don’t know if it was her illusion, but the ambiguous atmosphere was gone.
But the surrounding air pressure also dropped to freezing point in an instant.
