Chapter 169: Origin

Regardless of whether Yan Wei's words are true or not, I have been hurt. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

I thought that love should be open-minded and straightforward, and what I was looking for should be a man who wanted to spoil me to heaven. It doesn't matter what I've done before and what I'm going to do in the future. Even if everyone in the world scolds me, hates me, and wants to kill me, only he is willing to protect me. The most important thing is that he has to make me happy, not sad.

So, a man who makes me sad is not worthy of my love.

I heard Yan Wei coughing violently in the pavilion, and saw Yurou holding an oil-paper umbrella painted with red plums passing by me, and rushed into the pavilion, worried as if she was about to shed tears.

Despite my worries, I never looked back, because it was all about me. Yan Wei can only be a hurried passer-by in my life.

After returning to the room, Wang Meng came to see me. I made tea and sat with him for a while, and asked how I got out of danger.

Wang Meng said that after he found Wutian and sour dates, he heard my screams. Several people turned the house upside down and didn't find anyone, but they caught the old janitor who had been following them in the shadows.

Naturally, the old man would not say that he had a problem, but only that he heard movement in the house, so he came out to take a look.

In this case, it's okay to deceive sour jujubes, but to say that deceiving Wutian is a little worse than Wang Meng. They interrogated the old janitor about my whereabouts, but the old man insisted that he was doing his normal patrol and said nothing else.

I asked him, "How did you find me? It can't be a confession by force, right?"

Wang Meng smiled and said, "We wanted to, but we didn't dare." The old man is so old, he will die if he eats a fist and slap him casually, and if he dies, won't you be able to find out your whereabouts?"

I nodded, "He's not a big traitor, you have to be forgiving and forgiving!"

Wang Meng sighed and said, "Brother Bai, you said it easily, I don't know how depressed we were in the house at that time like headless flies. ”

"Thank you for your hard work. A warm current came to my heart, and immediately there was a fog in front of me.

I wiped my eyes with my sleeve, and Wang Meng immediately asked me, "What's wrong?"

I smiled faintly at him and said, "It's nothing, there's sand in my eyes." ”

Wang Meng nodded, a hint of embarrassment flashing across his face. Then, he picked up the porcelain cup and drank tea leisurely.

I took him by the arm and said, "Brother Wang, you haven't told me yet, how did you find me!"

"I almost forgot. Wang Meng put down the cup in his hand and said, "The mother-in-law who tied you couldn't hold her breath, and when she was waiting for the opportunity to rescue, she was also arrested by us." However, she is mute, and can only scream and make random gestures. ”

I urged him, "Jump over, how do you know my whereabouts?" ”

Wang Meng smiled and said, "Actually, the method is very simple, let's tell her that if she doesn't hand over the people, we will kill the old man who guards the door." ”

I said, "You guys are ruthless enough to bully the old and weak!"

Wang Meng said, "It's just a temporary expedient measure to scare her." If she didn't say anything, we couldn't do anything, but I didn't expect her to compromise all of a sudden. ”

Thinking of the white-faced woman pacing in the secret room, I thought that her concern for the old janitor must be genuine. I asked Wang Meng, "How did the two of them deal with it in the end?"

Wang Meng replied, "I haven't dealt with it yet, and I'm locked up in Zhuangzi." Childe said, these two people will be handed over to you to send down, after all, they are the people who were arrested in the house you bought. ”

When I heard the words Childe, my heart chuckled, but fortunately it was not revealed on my face. I said to Wang Meng, "Then you can ask someone to bring them over!"

"Cheng! Brother Bai, wait a while, I'll go and pick up someone. The king did what he said, and immediately got up and left.

After he left, I immediately asked the jujube, "Where did you go with Wutian last night, and why did you suddenly disappear?"

Suan Zao's face suddenly turned red and said, "I chased Wutian and I into a rockery, and the space in it was very large, like a cave. ”

I searched hard and the impression in my mind was that there was indeed a rockery in the garden. At that time, Wang Meng and I thought that they had gone to other places along the road, and we didn't pay attention to the rockery at all. But I don't know how many secrets and how many secret rooms are still hidden in the ghost house

I took the opportunity to educate the sour jujube again, so that she should not be so reckless in the future. The sour jujube responded very sincerely, but I knew that she couldn't do it at all, and next time, she would definitely rush out without hesitation.

It didn't take much effort for Wang Meng to escort the old man to the doorman and come over with the white-faced woman. The old janitor knelt before me and begged me to forgive them.

The white-faced woman also kowtowed like him, but she just muttered in her mouth, and she didn't know what she was talking about.

I squinted at them and smiled, "I have some questions for you, and whether you survive depends on whether I'm satisfied with the answers you give." ”

The old man at the doorman knocked down his head and said, "Please ask, son! ”

"Hmm!" I nodded, and added, "since she can't speak, you'll be the narrator!"

"Yes! Yes!" the old janitor kowtowed a few more times.

I asked the sour jujube to move a low stool for them to sit on, and they thanked me excitedly and suspiciously. I began to ask the old janitor, "What are you two like?"

Now that the secret has been exposed, there is no value in hiding it. The old man at the doorman slapped his thigh and said, "That's it! Today, the little old man will shake out all these dusty pasts!"

The two of them really had a story, and I suddenly came to my senses, and listened intently to the old man who was the gatekeeper, and he said, "This matter should start with the origin of this notorious haunted mansion in Mengzhou." ”

I asked, "Are you the ones who know about this?"

"It's not just the **, she, the mother-in-law next to me who is not a ghost or a ghost is one of the protagonists of this story! The old man looked at the white-faced woman with tears in his eyes.

The white-faced woman threw herself into the old man's arms and cried, and the old man wiped her tears with his calloused rough hands and comforted her, saying, "Don't cry, madam!"

That look, that look was like comforting his own child.

I had too many doubts, so I frowned and asked, "That's not right, even if she can barely get through the story by turning into a ghost for revenge, but her appearance is so old and terrifying, how can she be the most beautiful Oiran twenty years ago?"

Listening to my words, the white-faced woman had tears on her face, and suddenly stood up very excitedly and gestured in front of me. I didn't understand what she was trying to mean, and looked at the old man blankly.

The old man first comforted the white-faced woman and said, "Madam, don't be excited, sit down first, and let me talk about it." ”

The white-faced woman sat down quietly, and the old man said to me, "It's all the *** harm, when he was so poor that he even had to take off his pants, it was his wife who paid for him to study, take the exam, and go to high school." Later, when he became prosperous, he wanted a wife for his future and married a young lady from an official family. The lady was unwilling, so he turned her into a monster with poisoned wine. ”

I said, "There is a rumor that your wife wants to poison her husband and end up reaping the consequences!"

The old man said angrily, "Childe, you don't know, the other protagonist in the story is the current Mengzhou Shou." Those false rumors in the market were all spread by him at the behest of others, in order to clear himself. ”

The difference between the two versions of the story is really big, the version rumored in the market, the hero is a businessman, and the heroine dies and turns into a ghost. In this version of the old janitor, the hero is a reader, or a high-ranking one, and the heroine has turned into a living ghost.

Comparing these two stories carefully, I actually think that this version of the janitor is more credible. First, the transformation of ghosts after death is too mysterious, and it is not as convincing as what I have personally experienced. Second, the hero as a businessman is just a vague image that can't be blurred anymore, and it basically depends on everyone's imagination. Not as convincing as the real name.
