He Xiaoguo wanted to protest, so he wrapped his arms around He Jing’s neck tightly. However, he was no match for Yan Hanxi’s strength, so he was pulled into his arms in an instant.
“Let go of me. I want to stay with my sister.” His face turned red as he kicked his short legs.
Yan Hanxi slapped him on the head and rubbed it. “Your sister is on my team.
We’ll stay together. If you make a fuss again, I’ll spank you, okay?”
He Xiaoguo’s eyes were filled with tears. He didn’t kick up a fuss. He just stared at He Jing with his eyes, looking extremely pitiful.
He Jing’s vision was pitch-black and she did not see his tears. She thought that he had agreed, so she went to the four walls to look for clues. She heard He Sui shout proudly, “I knew it would be like this!”
It turned out that He Sui had already lit up a lamp embedded in the wall. He Chen and He Yi went over and asked him the trick.
“Think about it yourself.” He Sui raised his chin.
Then, he rushed up to He Jing with enthusiasm. His eyes sparkled as she asked for praise. “He Jing, I’m amazing, right? I was the first one to solve it.”
He Jing nodded. “Impressive. What’s the key to solving the riddle?”
He Sui did not hesitate at all. He told her directly, “It’s a story broadcast. Didn’t you hear the loudspeaker in the secret room keep ringing? It keeps telling the story of Huiniang and her lover. Her lover got married on the 28th of the ugly month in the year of Xuwu. This must be the day that Huiniang looked forward to the most and also the time when she passed away, so the lamp on the wall must have something to do with it.”
He Jing understood now. Year Xuwu, Year Chou, Month 28, and Noon could all be converted into numbers. For example, Chou was 1, 28 was 28, and Noon was
The only difference was the difficulty of the year Xuwu, which ranged from
19 to 21.
But soon, He Ning solved the Xu-Wu spell. The lamp in his hand lit up. He said calmly, “It’s 20 because 20 is a whole number. It’s more auspicious. It’s impossible to choose an odd number for marriage.”
Wu Yu was almost convinced by the group of high-IQbig shots here. No wonder He Jing was such a genius. It turned out that the He family’s genes were like this.
Five minutes later, the lights on the four walls lit up. Almost everyone had contributed, except Cheng Yi.
She stayed by He Zhou’s side and did not dare to leave him for even a moment, afraid that another ghost would jump out. When her vision returned to light, her fear subsided slightly. To highlight her role, when she was about to solve the next puzzle, she hurriedly stepped forward and said, “Why don’t I solve this question?”
“Can you do it?” Shen Qiuyu questioned her.
She had not been of any help just now and had been acting like a wooden statue. If she had the ability, she would have used her fists and legs long ago.
Cheng Yi bit her lip and said pitifully, “I know I’m useless, but I’ll work hard. I want to contribute to everyone.”
Hearing this, Shen Qiuyu felt that it would be too much to say anything more. She pursed his lips and shut up.contemporary romance
Cheng Yi looked at Yan Hanxi, hoping that he would look at her, but he didn’t. Yan Hanxi was having a great time with He Xiaoguo.
She had no choice but to look away and listen to the broadcast in the secret room. It was a new clue that asked them to put food on the empty wedding table and be guests at the wedding.
This old house was about to hold the wedding of Huiniang and her lover.
Cheng Yi was delighted. She didn’t expect this question to be an indication. As long as she went to the kitchen, she would be able to easily find the food on the wedding table.
Unexpectedly, the walkie-talkie in He Ning’s hand rang. The director’s voice came through. “This is a solo operation. You have to go alone..”
