When the dancing horse came to Juncheng Mansion, it had been renovated.
In Dancing Horse's memory, it's like the blood sacrifice happened last night, as if it was just a dream.
The scratches on the wall made by the knife, the windows burned by the fire, the door bolts that were kicked off, and the bricks that fell to the floor due to the shock of the blood sacrifice were all gone.
This is probably a masterpiece under Liu Wenjing's instructions.
According to Liu Wenjing, he plans to transform this place into an office space for the Awakening Mansion.
It's not that Jinyang County can't find a tall and elegant free place, but that no one wants to touch those two altars, so they just leave them alone and are afraid of something happening, so they simply build the Awakening Mansion here to kill two birds with one stone.
Liu Wenjing was very satisfied with her little cleverness and wanted to do the horse dance to praise him again and again.
A soldier stood every few steps around the courtyard, watching the surroundings carefully.
This is a three-shift watch at twelve o'clock to ensure that there will be no mistakes.
There was a team of guards at the door responsible for checking identities, but it was basically empty all day long.
Of course, no one wants to come here, which shows that the Awakening Mansion that will be established soon will not be very lively either.
Wu Ma walked to the door, and several guards naturally recognized this awakened disciple who had repeatedly performed extraordinary feats, and respectfully let him go.
One of the soldiers looked at the dancing horse with admiration in his eyes.
As soon as Wu Ma entered the gate, he felt that something was wrong. The whole county and Cheng Mansion was filled with darkness and chill.
A fresh coat of paint can't hide the sinister malice.
The further inside, the more obvious the malice became, which gave Dancing Horse the illusion that his prey had stepped into a trap.
Danger.
The dancing horse decisively stopped and walked back.
He walked very quickly, with full concentration and high vigilance on his surroundings. If someone attacked the dancing horse at this time, he would definitely not be able to escape.
When I returned to the gate, the malice still lingered in my chest.
Wu Ma was unwilling to leave empty-handed.
Then he asked the guards at the door: "How many days have you been guarding here?"
Bingwei said: "Reporting to Mr. Wu Lang, we have been here since the capture of the Juncheng Mansion that night. When the mansion was renovated, we also supervised the entire process."
"So long?" Wu Ma asked: "Do you have any strange feeling?"
"Well……"
"For example, have you ever felt that there is a pair of invisible eyes staring at you from behind?"
The soldiers were confused when asked, shaking their heads repeatedly.
"Everything is normal?" Wu Ma still refused to give up.
One of the soldiers replied: "It's just very boring. I feel a little sleepy after standing for a long time - Mairo-kun, we want to fight."
Can you tell Mr. Liu how many groups of people will be assigned to guard you? We also want to follow you into battle and perform meritorious service."
Dancing Horse nodded noncommittally.
Then he asked: "Has the Turkic traitor who was arrested last night been sent here?"
"That woman?"
"Um."
"Sent her in early in the morning," Bingwei said, "Mr. Liu took her in and struggled for a long time."
"Um?"
The dancing horse was frightened, Liu Wenjing wouldn't be reincarnated like this.
"What nonsense are you talking about," another soldier said, "Don't misunderstand me, Mr. Wu Lang. Mr. Liu said that this woman is also an awakened disciple. He was afraid that she might have some evil skills, so he went through many tricks to restrain her."
Dancing Horse asked again: "Where is she being held now?"
"Inside the darkroom in the backyard." Bingwei said, "It's next door to the one where you were imprisoned earlier."
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Another soldier poked him hard with his finger, "Is Mairo-kun being imprisoned? Mairo-kun is sleeping and resting, while he is hibernating and recharging his energy. Do you understand?"
"Yes, yes." Bingwei nodded repeatedly.
Wu Ma rolled his eyes. Do I need face so much?
After thinking about the cause and effect, Wu Ma quickly understood where the danger sense just now came from.
He thought for a moment, calmed down his uneasy mood, and continued to go to the county magistrate's mansion.
Passing through the newly renovated main house, the interior has been re-arranged. The living room is much smaller, and new walls have been built on the left and right sides to separate several rooms.
At this moment, Wu Ma had no intention of inspecting his future office location and went straight to the backyard.
There were still more than ten soldiers on duty in the backyard. The leading noncommissioned officer came forward and exchanged greetings with Wu Ma. Wu Ma asked Qingxia if there was anything strange after she was sent in.
"No," the sergeant said, "Absolutely not."
As he said that, he pointed to the dark room: "Being quiet all morning is like locking up a dead person."
After hearing this, Wu Ma felt that something invisible was grabbing at his heart.
Tian Deping's curse is so deadly that it prevents people from speaking properly.
Wu Ma looked at the sergeant angrily and told him to stop talking.
He was standing in the middle of the backyard, and to his left was the secret room where he was pitifully imprisoned for several days and even sacrificed once.
On the right is the place where Wang Wei and others were sacrificed.
In just a few days, the executioner who originally held the butcher's knife ended up taking his own life, while the lamb to be slaughtered was still alive and well.
Therefore, no matter what kind of danger you are in, if possible, you still have to give your fate a try.
Should I go to the secret room to see the altar first, or should I go to the dark room to see Qingxia first?
This is another question worth thinking about.
Wu Ma walked forward decisively and held the door handle...
