Chapter 394 Secret
The sound of ghost wall made many people feel cold.
Some timid people wanted to retreat immediately.
But seeing the still burning fire, they could not help but worry that the wind would help the fire and affect the houses next door. If their own homes were burned down, it would be terrible.
Many people have heard of ghost wall, but it was the first time for everyone to see it with their own eyes.
They couldn't get into the wax shop, and no one knew what to do.
Ning Chuyi looked at the black smoke inside, pursed his lips and stepped over the threshold.
Wei Feng opened his mouth and closed it again.
Just followed him closely.
The imperial guards behind looked at each other and hurried to follow.
I don't believe it's so weird that no one can get in.
Everyone didn't believe it, and walked in with a breath.
It's a pity that some things are just so weird.
But after a while.
Without exception, everyone stood at the starting position again.
Some people were sweating on their foreheads.
This wax shop was really weird. Not only Ning Chuyi and the imperial guards couldn't get in.
All the neighbors who came to help tried, but no one succeeded.
But the wax shop was clearly normal before the fire. Just today, someone went in to buy candles and there was nothing unusual.
Just when he was at a loss, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted in surprise, "Qiu Mao is here."
A stranger, Ning Chuyi didn't intend to pay attention.
But he heard others say that he was the young master of the wax shop.
Ning Chuyi turned around and saw a man rushing in from the crowd.
"Is there a secret passage in the workshop?"
Qiu Mao frowned, and was annoyed when he saw that his workshop had caught fire, and everyone just gathered outside the door to watch the excitement, but didn't help put out the fire.
Hearing Ning Chuyi's inexplicable question, he subconsciously wanted to get angry.
But seeing his imposing manner, he could only suppress his anger.
Qiu Mao shook his head, "There is only one door in the workshop."
Someone in the crowd immediately said, "What should we do, Qiu Mao, your wax shop is blocked by ghosts, and we can't get in."
Qiu Mao was originally uneasy about the sudden fire in the wax shop, and he was shocked when he heard the three words "blocked by ghosts".
"Qiu Mao, we can't get in. But this is your wax shop, you should be able to get in, right?"
Before he came back, Qiu Mao was very anxious. But at this moment, he didn't want to go in at all.
Seeing him standing still, someone urged, "Qiu Mao, are you scared? Your father is still in there, don't you go in and take a look?"
After urging several times in a row, Qiu Mao seemed to have nails under his feet and couldn't move.
Seeing his pale face and sweat on his forehead, everyone thought he was scared because the fire was too big.
Only Qiu Mao knew that he was not afraid of the fire.
But he had a hunch that if he went in, he would die inside.
Ning Chuyi's eyes turned cold, this Qiu Mao, there was something wrong.
Noticing his gaze, Qiu Mao suddenly felt like he was on edge.
He turned his head subconsciously and met Ning Chuyi's sharp gaze.
Qiu Mao shuddered in his heart.
After hesitating for a while, he walked into the wax shop with his head held high.
Everyone present stared at Qiu Mao curiously, wanting to know if he could get in.
But the result was destined to be disappointing.
Qiu Mao entered the wax shop, but like everyone else, he walked out again for no apparent reason.
Qiu Mao stood outside the door, with beads of sweat on his forehead, but he felt relieved in his heart.
If he couldn't get in, he wouldn't die.
Originally, he was worried that someone would find out when he heard that the wax shop had caught fire.
But now that no one could get in, his secret wouldn't be exposed.
At this moment, Qiu Mao even secretly hoped that the fire inside would burn as big as possible, and it would be best if everything in the wax shop was burned down.
That way his secret would never be discovered.
As for those who rented the wax shop and his father, don't blame him if they die.
It's not that he didn't want to save their lives, but he couldn't get in at all.
He tried his best, and he could only blame God for being blind.
Qiu Mao was secretly rejoicing, and suddenly he noticed that someone was looking at him.
He quickly gathered his mind and hid the expression on his face by wiping his sweat with his hand.
Ning Chuyi glanced at him coldly and then withdrew his eyes from Qiu Mao.
He saw that there must be something wrong with him, but he didn't care at this time.
The lives of the imperial guards inside were more important.
Wei Feng looked at Ning Chuyi who was looking at the black smoke in the wax shop, "Sir, let me ask Miss Han to come over."
Ning Chuyi's eyes paused, and the pale face flashed through her mind.
After rushing for several days in a row, she finally lay down to sleep. He didn't want to trouble her unless it was absolutely necessary.
Ning Chuyi suddenly turned around and walked out of the wax shop.
Wei Feng was wondering why he left.
He saw him walk from the gate to the left and looked up.
He quickly ordered: "Come on, tear down this wall."
He couldn't get into the wax shop, and Ning Chuyi found that the black smoke inside was not right. He just found that the black smoke inside gathered together and did not spread out.
He couldn't hear any movement inside.
There were so many imperial guards in the wax shop. It was said that the owner of the workshop was also inside. Whether they were alive or dead, they had to go in and take a look.
Since the gate couldn't be entered, the wall was broken.
Qiu Mao subconsciously wanted to stop it when he heard that the wall was going to be broken.
But he knew that if he really did this, others would definitely be suspicious.
Not to mention the candles in the workshop and the people who rented them, even his father was inside.
If he stopped others from breaking the wall to help him put out the fire, wouldn't it be clear that there was something fishy in the wax shop?
Qiu Mao couldn't think of a way, so he could only pray that the fire inside would burn his secrets, and these people wouldn't be able to find out even if they went in.
The emperor was not there, and the imperial guards obeyed Ning Chuyi's orders.
They were all martial artists, and with one palm from each of them, the wall collapsed.
Ning Chuyi was the first to go in.
Wei Feng and the other Jinyiwei also followed.
It was a pity that they couldn't get in even after the forced demolition.
The strange thing was that even after the wall was demolished, the black smoke inside didn't spread out.
Although they couldn't get in, after the wall was demolished, everyone could see more clearly than before.
But it made everyone feel even more scared.
What they saw clearly was not the people inside, but the black fog.
It was hideous and twisted, as terrifying as a ghost.
What made everyone feel even more weird was that the ghostly black fog seemed to have discovered them and was turning its head to stare at everyone.
Many imperial guards subconsciously put their hands on the swords at their waists, ready to fight back at any time.
But after waiting for a while, seeing that the black fog did not attack them, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Although they seemed calm on the surface, they were actually unsure in their hearts.
After all, no one had ever dealt with the black fog, and no one knew how to destroy it.
The black fog stared for a while and suddenly dispersed.
Although it was still gathered in the original place, it was not the same as before, and it looked like a ghost.
Wei Feng suddenly became happy, "Sir, Miss Han is here."
It was not easy to call the princess in front of outsiders, so he had to call her Miss Han.
Hearing Wei Feng's words, Ning Chuyi subconsciously turned back.
"Be careful..."
