Chapter 431 Visiting Long Weiwei's Room
Chapter 431 Visiting Long Weiwei's Room
Cang Xuan frowned: "I wonder where Madam He has been and who she has met? Can you recall where you heard the song?"
Cang Xuan still did not give up. He suspected that Long Weiwei had used an unknown method to leave Miaoyinfang and played music somewhere else, and was accidentally heard by Madam He. Otherwise, there was no explanation for why Madam He knew this song.
Tao Yanyan apologized: "I once fell into the water and lost part of my memory after being rescued, so I really can't recall where I heard this song. I hope Master Cang Xuan will forgive me."
Cang Xuan stroked the music score in his hand, unable to hide his regret: "More than 20 years have passed, and there has been no news from her. I wonder if I can see her again in my lifetime."
The second prince of Xia Kingdom carefully observed the furnishings in the room, opened the window and looked outside, but did not find any secret passage. He asked: "Master Cang Xuan, can you guarantee that Long Weiwei really entered the room and disappeared more than 20 years ago?"
Cang Xuan nodded seriously: "That's true. Prince Changping was there that day, as well as several old friends. Second Prince, you can ask anyone."
"Humph, I will naturally investigate one by one. I will never believe that a living person would disappear out of thin air!" The second prince looked at Cang Xuan angrily: "If I find out who is behind this and harmed my Xia country's musician Long Weiwei, my Xia country will never let it go easily."
Prince Changping suddenly asked: "Cang Xuan, do you find this room interesting?"
Everyone looked in the direction of his voice, full of suspicion.
Prince Changping said: "Don't you think these decorations look like a Bagua formation?"
After saying that, he took out a pen and paper, drew a sketch according to the structure of the room, and then placed several large ornaments in their place.
"Come and see, doesn't it look like a Bagua diagram?" Prince Changping made some space for everyone to come forward and see.
"This...how could this happen?" Cang Xuan exclaimed.
"Ever since Long Weiwei disappeared, I have come to this room many times, but I have never discovered the mystery. Today, after Prince Changping drew it, it seems that the layout of the room really looks like a Bagua diagram." Cang Xuan said.
Tao Yanyan also leaned over to take a look: "Could this be some kind of formation? A formation that can make people disappear out of thin air?"
She frowned: "If it is a formation, where would that person disappear if he stood?"
The second prince of Xia said disdainfully: "In my opinion, it is Prince Changping who is deliberately making things mysterious. He came up with some far-fetched Bagua formation just to cover up the truth about Long Weiwei's disappearance."
Prince Changping was speechless and said, "I am the Prince of Changping appointed by the previous emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. I am of true royal blood. How could I lie to you? Miss Long did disappear on the third floor back then!"
The second prince and the Prince of Changping started arguing. Tao Yanyan picked up the Bagua map and looked at it carefully one by one. She looked around and finally set her sights on the center of the Bagua map. That was the partition between the front hall and the bedroom at the back. There was a folding screen on it, and in the center of the screen was a person-high vase.
She walked towards the vase and looked at it carefully, but she didn't see anything unusual. She tried to put her hand on the vase, and a huge suction force instantly made her dizzy and she seemed to be fainting.
He Linzhang was right next to her, and as soon as he noticed that she looked strange, he immediately took her into his arms.
"What's wrong with you?" He Linzhang asked nervously.
After leaving the vase, Tao Yanyan gradually regained consciousness, and everyone looked at her in surprise.
"Just now, I seemed to be grabbed by something." She raised her hand and pointed at the vase: "It seems to have suction."
Everyone immediately surrounded the vase. Cang Xuan thought about it, reached out his hand to hold the vase, but found no reaction.
He glanced at Tao Yanyan and said, "Mrs. He, please stop joking. There is nothing unusual about me helping him up."
But Tao Yanyan did feel a strong suction force just now. She bit her lip and said, "How about I try it again this time?"
He Linzhang quickly grabbed her hand and said, "No, you can't take risks. I won't allow it."
But Tao Yanyan still wanted to give it a try, firstly to verify whether the feeling just now was correct, and secondly, she really wanted to figure out why she reacted while others did not.
"Then hold my hand, my husband, and I will try again." Tao Yanyan gave He Linzhang a look of trust, and He Linzhang had no choice but to hold her hand and touch the vase together.
Suddenly, Tao Yanyan became drowsy again. If He Linzhang hadn't held her hand, she might have fainted.
Tao Yanyan regained consciousness the moment he was held in his arms.
Cang Xuan saw the whole process of what happened this time, and he simply couldn't believe it.
To verify, Cang Xuan asked a maid to hold the vase, but the maid did not react.
Finally, Cang Xuan said thoughtfully: "It's really strange, Madam He seems to have a connection with this room."
He Linzhang was very unhappy with this: "This is the first time my wife has stepped into this room, and even the first time she has stepped into Miaoyinfang. What connection could she have with this place?"
After he finished speaking, he glanced at Ning Yuanhou and said, "Since a person disappeared out of thin air here, I think it is an ominous place, so we should seal it off as soon as possible."
Ning Yuanhou understood, but it was not easy to seal the house directly, so he had to persuade him: "It's a sad place, so don't look at it. Master Cang Xuan, just lock the house."
Ningyuan Hou was a first-rank military marquis, so his words still carried some weight, so Cang Xuan had no choice but to agree.
"If you have seen enough, why not go downstairs and have a cup of tea." The intention to drive people away was obvious. Prince Changping and others were the first to go out. Only the Second Prince of Xia was somewhat reluctant, but he went out in the end.
He Linzhang put his arm around Tao Yanyan's waist and helped her out personally. He couldn't help but asked worriedly, "How do you feel now? Do you want to see a doctor?"
The doctor he was referring to was naturally the imperial physician. Tao Yanyan shook his head: "It's okay, I just felt a little drowsy for a moment, but I don't feel anything now."
She looked calm on the outside, but her heart was filled with turmoil.
If she guessed correctly, that Long Weiwei, also known as Long Xiaoxiao in Master Cang Xuan's words, was a time traveler like her, and the reason why that person disappeared out of thin air was probably related to this vase.
She guessed that soon after a person fell unconscious, his soul might be completely sucked away by the suction of the vase and he would be transported back to his previous era.
The only reason why the vase is useless to others is that they are all people of this era, not time travelers.
Thinking of this, Tao Yanyan's face turned pale. Although she still had attachment to the world of her previous life, in this world, there were people who doted on her and loved her, as well as three lovely children. If one day she had to travel back in time, she seemed to be a little reluctant.
