Unlike her previous fear of the unknown dark being, Lin Mengya now walked easily, but the seed of the silver coin occupied most of her attention.
To be honest, until now, she has not understood her ancestor's intention.
While she was thinking hard, she suddenly stopped in front of the door carved with a black stone cat.
In the darkness, even her breathing could be heard clearly.
She put her ear against the door and suddenly heard a "squeak" sound.
Someone was scratching the door with a sharp object.
It took her almost five hours to go back and forth.
Maybe Yu, Bai Ji and the others were impatient, but this was the ancestral mausoleum of the Gong family. Even if they suspected that something had happened to them, they would not think of using anything to destroy the door.
But who could be outside?
The squeaking sound is very harsh. ??
She didn't dare to increase her sensitivity, otherwise she would be stimulated by the sound and become temporarily tinnitus and deafened.
The sounds outside were getting more and more urgent, and she didn't know how long the stone door could last.
Looking around, there seemed to be no place to hide except for the bare walls.
He turned around and prepared to run back, but it suddenly became quiet outside.
She stood silently in the darkness, letting time pass by.
She knew that she was not powerless to fight back, but there was a higher possibility that people outside were still enemies.
Maybe, this is the other party trying to lure the snake out of its hole?
But the sound of scraping the door really stopped. She tentatively turned up the sensitivity and finally heard a familiar sound.
"The lady is still inside, what should I do?"
It’s Angelica dahurica!
The little girl's cries sounded pitiful, and she immediately let go of her guard a little.
"Don't be afraid, His Highness will be here soon. The master is still safe inside -"
As soon as Bai Su finished speaking, he heard the sound of the stone door being opened.
Everyone looked towards the tomb door, and when they saw her inside, wearing only a thin coat, everyone rushed over.
"master!"
"Miss!"
"Master!"
She was a little overwhelmed by the three titles.
Fortunately, the light in the ear chamber was not dazzling. She rubbed her eyes and got used to it.
"Why are you here? Who wanted to open this door just now?"
She looked toward the ear chamber.
Of her people, only Cairu was not present, while Gong Ling and the other clan members looked a little embarrassed.
After seeing her, those people couldn't help but shed tears of excitement and thanked their ancestors for their blessings.
"Master!" Gong Ling, as the eldest person here, immediately explained the situation.
"It's all that traitor Gong Tu!" Gong Ling said angrily through gritted teeth. Cursed.
It turned out that Gong Tu had used his position in the Gong family to visit the Gong family village several times very diligently.
Every time, he did it in the name of sending supplies, but in fact he wanted to find out the truth.
Not long after Lin Mengya was left alone, Gong Tu led his men into the family temple.
Later, they angered Gong Tu because they would rather die than obey.
He led his men to lock Gong Ling and others into the ear room, then turned around to deal with the guards who had gathered around them.
Hearing this, Lin Mengya raised her eyebrows.
"So, Gong Tu just locked you in, but did he himself come in?"
Bai Zhi shook her head, held her lady's hand and said, "Thanks to Lord Ling and the others for protecting the three of us. It seems that Gong Tu wants to trap us here!"
When Lin Mengya heard this, she secretly became wary.
She just clearly heard the sound of someone opening the door.
Her eyes vaguely scanned everyone present, and she did not see any hard objects in the hands of these people.
It seems that there must be a mole here.
Putting away all her speculations and thoughts, Lin Mengya pretended to be nothing, raised the corners of her lips and said loudly, "Don't be afraid, everyone! I believe someone will come to save us!"
She moved away slightly, revealing the dark and empty tomb passage behind her.
Immediately, several young children stretched their heads. After a moment, they were forcefully pushed back by their own adults.
"Master, this is"
Gong Ling looked in awe.
Lin Mengya also said with a serious face, "We'd better not disturb the ancestors' spirits in heaven."
Gong Ling nodded hurriedly and took a few steps back with his tribe, while Lin Mengya turned around and made a gesture to press the off switch.
But the moment the door fell, a slender figure quickly flashed over.
Everyone was defenseless, and the man pulled out a sharp dagger and went straight to her vest.
"Master, be careful!"
Bai Su also rushed forward, but he blocked Lin Mengya with his body.
But the latter was already prepared.
With the force of Bai Su's attack, he instantly rolled around on the ground.
With a "bang" sound, the stone door fell firmly.
And the person who attacked her was locked inside.
"what happened?"
The crowd instantly became a mess.
Everyone wanted to come up to see her condition, but Lin Mengya stopped them.
Bai Su ignored the dust on her body and tidied her up and down.
Check it out by the way.
After confirming that there was no problem, he protected the people behind him and looked at the remaining clan members with an unkind expression.
"Ahem, it's okay."
Lin Mengya knew a long time ago that the people hiding here would be unable to restrain themselves.
Therefore, she acted defenseless.
They must have tried their best to open the door before, so naturally they would not miss this good opportunity easily.
Now, people are locked inside.
Not to mention whether he could find the large cat nest inside, even if he had a way to open it, the cat masters would still give him a hard time.
Baiji and Baizhi turned pale with fright.
Fortunately, they have also experienced strong winds and waves, and now they understand that no one can be trusted here except their own sisters.
Gong Ling was even more shocked.
He never expected that there would be so many traitors in the clan one after another. For him, it would be as if the world was falling apart.
"Yes, it's Aunt Dong's Xiaodouzi!"
Someone in the crowd recognized the person who attacked her.
Gong Ling had a cold face and strode towards the bewildered couple.
"Look at the good son you raised!"
The couple almost collapsed to the ground with fear.
They never expected that their well-behaved son would actually do such a thing.
Gong Ling was so angry that he raised his hand and was about to hit him, but Granny Sha stopped him.
"Master Ling, please be patient! They must be unaware, otherwise they would definitely stop them. You value them so much, and Xiaodouzi almost grew up in front of you. I hope you will spare them as long as you have been a relative for many years."
Bar!"
These words made Gong Ling even more furious.
He pushed Granny Sha away and kicked Xiaodouzi's father to the ground.
"If I knew you were so ungrateful, I might as well have let you die! It would be better than putting us in this disloyal and unjust situation now!"
The man held on and did not dare to reply, but the woman received huge blows one after another, crying and standing in front of her man to beg for mercy.
Some of the remaining tribesmen couldn't bear it, and some felt extremely angry.
After a while, the entire ear chamber became a mess.
Lin Mengya and the four of them stood in the corner, seeing the situation getting worse and worse. They were afraid that if the fight continued, someone would be killed.
She gave Bai Su a look, and the latter hesitated for a moment before ducking into the crowd.
Fortunately, Bai Su's martial arts skills kept the restless tribesmen away.
But the crowd blocked her, causing her to ignore a figure that quietly pulled away from the crowd.
Although Bai Ji and Bai Zhi were standing in front of her, they were worried about the situation over there.
Someone suddenly stuck up from the side, and right there At the same time, the man forcefully slapped a pill into her mouth.
Who knows, something strange happened.
The poison that should have taken effect immediately was delayed.
While the man was frozen on the spot, he saw that the woman who she thought was being restrained by him actually turned around and looked at her.
"Grandma Sha, you hide it really well."
Granny Sha was stunned for a moment, and then after seeing the sarcasm between her eyebrows, she decided not to stop and wanted to kill her with the dagger she had with her.
With a "Puff" sound, the sharp weapon pierced the body.
But it was Grandma Sha who fell down with a surprised look on her face.
At this time, Baiji and Bai Zhi were still looking outside.
"Miss, can we turn around?"
Baiji asked anxiously.
This is what Lin Mengya Tete explained just now.
Let them pretend to be attracted by the excitement over there no matter what noise they hear.
"Well, that's ok."
She adjusted her sleeves to cover the hidden weapon between her wrists.
"Everyone, stop for a moment. I have found the real traitor."
Her slightly cool voice instantly stopped the chaotic scene over there.
Gong Ling's hanging heart instantly froze when he saw Grandma Sha lying at the feet of the master of the house.
"W-what on earth is going on?"
In the crowd, every woman showed an unquestionable look.
You should know that Granny Sha is optimistic and cheerful, and she likes to help others. She also has some medical skills and is kind to many people.
How could such a person be a traitor?
Lin Mengya didn't say anything, she just kicked away Granny Sha's hand under her clothes.
With a crisp "ding-dong" sound, a small dagger with a hook appeared in front of everyone.
Now, everyone had to believe it.
"Master, it's all my fault. It was my fault in supervision. Please punish me!"
Gong Ling now only feels that his mind is at a loss.
The junior whom I have loved for many years, and the clansman whom I feel so familiar that I can no longer be familiar with each other, are actually traitors.
Unable to accept it anymore, he knelt in front of Lin Mengya to plead guilty.
"Get up, Master Ling, this is not your fault. People's hearts are unpredictable, and if I guessed correctly, she should be the 'mountain god' who pretends to be a ghost."
Grandma Sha is not dead, but the power of the dark crossbow is not small, and the person is no different from death.
Hearing what she said, those in the crowd who had some sympathy for Granny Sha just now, their eyes widened.
"What? Is she the mountain god?"
Gong Ling murmured to himself, as if he was struck by lightning.
