Chapter 257 The Miao Youth is a Proud Male Supporting Character (34)
Lin Shen raised his head slightly, looking away from the food in his hand, and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Su Hebei blinked, tried to make his expression more natural, and replied, "Nothing."
After saying that, he casually sat down opposite Lin Shen and quietly placed the wontons in his hand on the table.
Although Yu Wuyan, who was behind, noticed this scene, he chose to remain silent and did not point it out.
He sat down too.
Lin Shen stopped eating after a few bites. Seeing this, Yu Wuyan diligently began to clear the food on the table.
Su Hebei also rushed to help. The two of them fought for the garbage, which made Lin Shen feel helpless. What was there to fight for? It was garbage. What a lunatic!
Su Hebei found that he was becoming more and more disgusted with Yu Wuyan recently. Perhaps it was because he could always attract Lin Shen's attention. In short, he didn't like Yu Wuyan.
After a while, Shang Meng also came to Lin Shen's room.
The four of them discussed it and decided to go to Su Family Villa together instead of acting separately. After all, they were not familiar with the place, and if they encountered any trouble, it would be better for them to unite.
Suhebei took the initiative to lead the way. Although he was sent away when he was very young, the memory of that time was already deeply engraved in his heart, so he could still remember how to get there.
The three followed Suhebei up the mountain. After walking for a fairly long distance, they saw a dilapidated mountain villa not far away.
The four words "Su Family Villa" were still clearly visible. Su Hebei looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar handwriting, as if he was in another world, and a trace of trance flashed in his eyes.
The four of them walked into the villa together.
The inside was in ruins, with weeds growing everywhere, debris everywhere, and even traces of blood.
Lin Shen frowned. Even though more than ten years had passed, people could still feel the tragedy that had happened back then.
Su Hebei's expression was tense. Lin Shen and the other two looked at each other and did not disturb him.
Su Hebei walked slowly to his room according to his memory.
Lin Shen didn't say anything and searched for clues in the villa with the other two.
Su Hebei looked at his dilapidated room, which was almost unrecognizable from its original appearance, but his eyes were suddenly attracted by a broken puppet, which was a gift from his father.
He picked up the puppet and blew on it, and dust flew everywhere.
He smiled, touched the puppet, and a hint of sadness appeared in the corner of his eyes.
This scene happened to be seen by Lin Shen, and he quietly moved away. What Su Hebei needed now was not his comfort.
After a while, the four of them returned to the yard together. They all looked a little frustrated because they didn't find any useful clues.
After all, more than ten years have passed, and even if there were any clues, they would have probably disappeared.
The four of them fell silent, and the atmosphere was somewhat heavy.
Lin Shen thought for a while, then looked at Su Hebei and asked, "Do you still remember what happened back then?"
Su Hebei nodded, then shook his head, his expression a little dazed.
The three of them looked at him in confusion.
Su Hebei said slowly: "I don't remember it very clearly, I just remember that it was very noisy outside that day, my mother woke me up and said she wanted to play hide-and-seek with me, and said if I won she would give me my father's sword, I liked it very much, so I quietly hid in the secret room.
But I waited for a long time and they didn't come to see me.
When I fell asleep and came out, there were dead bodies everywhere outside. I saw so many of them, but not a single one was alive. They were all covered in blood. My father was also inside. He held on to his last breath when he saw me and kept saying that he was looking for my mother.
I always thought my mother was still alive, but then..."
His voice choked, and he seemed afraid to show weakness in front of others, so he turned his head to avoid the sight of the three people.
The air became unusually quiet, as if everyone had witnessed the tragic scene that day.
Lin Shen's eyes turned and noticed the puppet in Su Hebei's hand. He narrowed his eyes but remained silent.
After a while, Su Hebei suddenly laughed and broke the silence: "It's okay, I'm living a good life now anyway."
His eyes were looking at Lin Shen at the moment. Lin Shen felt burned by him and avoided his gaze a little guiltily.
He quickly changed the subject: "What is this puppet?"
Su Hebei raised the puppet in his hand, smiled and said, "My father gave it to me when I was a child. I just found it on the floor of my room."
Lin Shen looked at it thoughtfully, then said, "Let me see."
Su Hebei nodded and handed the puppet to Lin Shen.
Lin Shen looked it up and down, then put it to his ear and shook it. His pupils suddenly widened.
Then he gave it back to Su Hebei. Su Hebei took it a little nervously, and imitated Lin Shen and shook it to his ear, and heard the jingling sound inside.
He quickly squatted down and began to disassemble the puppet.
Several people watched Su Hebei carefully disassemble the puppet.
Soon, Su Hebei had a silver key in his hand.
The three of them were stunned, and Su Hebei said in a low voice: "I know where to go, follow me."
The three of them followed Su Hebei around a few corners and then entered a room. Su Hebei pressed the brush on the side, and with a "dong" sound, a passage leading downwards appeared in front of them.
It was dark inside, so several people lit a fire and went in.
Soon, they arrived at a room.
There is everything in it, including some tools, it looks like a storage room.
But it's a mess here, as if someone has broken in.
Su Hebei walked to a corner of the room without hesitation and pressed the bricks on the wall. Soon, the wall turned, revealing a hidden secret room.
Su Hebei walked in first, followed by Lin Shen, Yu Wuyan and Shang Meng.
The space inside was not large, but was arranged in an ordinary way. However, it was neat and tidy, and apart from some dust, it did not look like anyone had ever broken in.
Su Hebei looked around and said to the three people, "Let's move this bookshelf together."
Lin Shen and Yu Wuyan nodded, walked forward together, and moved the bookshelf away with force.
Su Hebei squatted down and dug the ground twice with his hands, and soon an entrance that looked like a cellar appeared.
He took the silver key from his pocket and unlocked the cellar.
There was a shallow hole in the cellar, and one could reach the things inside just by reaching in with one's hand.
Su Hebei slowly took out something, which was a book and a sword.
He looked at the sword for a few seconds and knew in his heart that this was a sword passed down in the family. He had heard of it since he was a child, but had never seen it. He did not expect it to be hidden here.
Lin Shen picked up the book and found that it was the complete set of secret manuals of "Lingshuang Sword Technique".
He remembered that the Su Family Villa had already shown a tendency to dominate the martial arts world with only the first eight moves, but this book recorded ten moves.
There was also a letter in the book's interleaf.
Lin Shen took it out and handed it to Su Hebei.
Su Hebei took the letter with mixed emotions on his face. He knew that the letter might contain family secrets and perhaps solve the mystery of the year.
