Chapter 38: The Past (3)
In the evening, Zhu'er paced around the courtyard, recalling the events of the day, and thought: "If what the eldest lady said is true, Zhao Gongzi was killed, then Zhao Gongzi is a relative of Zhu Gongzi, why does Zhu Gongzi look indifferent?"
Man Rong came back with a hoe and asked, "Zhu'er, is the meal ready?" Zhu'er patted her head: "Oops, I forgot to cook." ”
Man Rong walked over, looked at Zhu'er twice, and asked, "What are you thinking, you forgot to cook?" Zhu'er asked non-answered, and said, "Dad, you said a few days ago that you were going to give me Zhao Gongzi who was going on a blind date, how to get to his house?" Man Rong replied: "Go out and turn left, go straight for half an hour, then turn right, and the second family will be." ”
Zhu'er rushed out of the door and said, "Dad, you eat by yourself today, and I'm going to go out." ”
When she came to Zhao's mansion, it was already the time of the year.
The sky was cloudy and ready for rain. Zhu'er saw that the door was closed, so she stepped forward and knocked on the door, but there was no response. She screamed a few times, but no one came to open the door.
At this moment, a gust of wind blew and ruffled her hair.
Zhu'er walked around the Zhao Mansion and found a side door on the east side, and the wooden door was half-open and half-hidden. She gently pushed it away and walked inside.
The courtyard was in shambles, several of them were lying on the ground, and when she got closer, the ground was covered with blood.
Zhu'er picked up a fifty-year-old lady, shook it twice, and shouted, "Auntie, auntie." "The eldest lady has long been out of breath. Pearls checked on the others, and they all died.
She crept to a side room, and when she saw that it was empty, she went to another room, and she looked for it from room to room. Suddenly there was a rumbling sound in the sky, and a bolt of lightning slashed across the sky like a sharp sword, and the sky seemed to be split into two pieces, and the rain began to fall in a hurry.
When Zhu'er walked to the courtyard, she saw a man in black swinging a sword at an old man. Looking at the old man's dress, he should be the owner of this mansion - Master Zhao.
Before Zhu'er could react, she saw the man in black stabbing into Master Zhao's heart with a sword, and Master Zhao spit blood from his mouth and died on the spot.
The man in black drew his sword, tore off his scarf, and laughed at the sky. The man in black is none other than Zhu'er's playmate from childhood to adulthood - Zhu Yuxian.
It turned out that after Zhu Yuxian sent Zhu'er home in the evening, he returned to the bamboo forest. He sat on a rock, flask in hand, took a few sips, and remembered what had happened in the past few days.
That day, he learned from Man Rong that Zhu'er was going on a blind date, and he used a spell to control Man Rong on the spot, making him reveal that he was a relative of the Zhao family.
Afterwards, he went to find out who Zhu'er's blind date was, but he didn't expect that it happened to be the son of the Zhao family.
After thinking about it, he felt that this matter was inappropriate, the paper could not contain the fire, and one day the father and daughter of the Man family would know that he was not a relative of the Zhao family. The only way to keep this secret forever is ...... An evil thought flashed through Zhu Yuxian's mind.
So, Zhu Yuxian sneaked into Zhao's mansion last night and saw the son of the Zhao family drinking alone, so he raised his sword and stabbed him. Pity that Zhao Gongzi, he doesn't even know how he died.
Zhu Yuxian thought of this, and thought: I went to the Zhao Mansion last night, and there was only one person in the family, and it was impossible for him to be the only one in such a big mansion. No, I'll have to take another look.
Time waited for no one, and he immediately set off for the Zhao Mansion.
In order not to let people know about his evil deeds, and in order to get Zhu'er, Zhu Yuxian actually killed twelve members of the Zhao family.
Zhu'er saw Zhu Yuxian stabbing Master Zhao to death in the heavy rain, and her eyes were puffed up. As soon as she wanted to step forward to ask what was going on, she saw Zhu Yuxian leap upwards and disappear into the night sky.
The next day, she ran to the mountains to find Zhu Yuxian.
When Zhu Yuxian saw her, he was full of joy, took her hand, and said, "Zhu'er, are you digging bamboo shoots with Uncle Man today?" Zhu'er shook off his hand, her face was pale, and she said coldly: "Why did you want to kill the people of the Zhao family? What enmity do they have against you, you want to kill their whole family?" Zhu Yuxian frowned, and thought: "Did you let her know about my murder?"
Zhu Yuxian saw that Zhu'er was angry, and he already had the answer in his heart, Zhu'er already knew about it, and it was useless for him to hide it. Zhu Yuxian knew that the murder was revealed, so he simply turned his heart sideways and said, "I did this all for you, Zhu'er!"
As he spoke, he put his hands on Pearl's shoulders, afraid that she would leave. The corners of Zhu'er's mouth moved, and she looked at him with impatient eyes, and said, "You killed so many people at once, and you actually shifted the responsibility to me?"
"Zhu'er, listen to me, I learned a few days ago that the son of the Zhao family was plotting against you, so I went to try to persuade him not to pester you, but he not only didn't listen, but also fought with me, so I killed him by mistake. ”
"We haven't even met, and he is plotting against me?" Zhu'er came suddenly, Zhu Yuxian was not mentally prepared at all, and wanted to find an excuse to fool her, but she didn't expect her to be smart and clear-minded.
Zhu'er was aggressive: "What about Master Zhao, what threat does he have to you, what about his housekeeper, and what about Yahuan...... I think you're not pleasing to their eyes, right?"
Zhu Yuxian began to get excited, he pushed Zhu'er away hard, and said: "Yes, you are right! I just see that the people of the Zhao family are not pleasing to the eye, who let that Zhao Gongzi want to go on a blind date with you? You are mine, you can't marry other men." ”
Zhu'er couldn't believe her ears, since she was a child, every time she went up the mountain, she played carefree with the person in front of her, laughing in the mountains......
"On the day of the blind date, you said that Zhao Gongzi already had a sweetheart, and it was a lie to let you go to the appointment. Do you not want him to go on a blind date, not only to lie to me, but also to kill people?!" Zhu'er shouted.
Pearls took a few steps back, turned and ran out. She covered her mouth and ran wildly, and said, "I want to report to the official, I want to report to the official......"
