The big ship had stopped in the usual stop, and the two of them followed a few guests who had also boarded the ship, and soon went to the deck. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Song Gongzi, I haven't seen you for a few days, and your face is much more ruddy. The boat lady greeted her with a smile and said, "Jun'er is still dressing up, why don't you sit down first and listen to the songs to relieve your boredom?" We have a few new singers here, and their skills are very good." ”

Song Zhenguo's face was solemn and he didn't give her a smile.

"I want to ask, a friend I brought the night before yesterday, the son named Wang Ziquan, I heard that there was a painting boat later, please call the girl who accompanied him the night before yesterday, I have something to ask. He casually gave a few taels of silver to the boatlady.

As soon as this is given, it is equivalent to throwing out thousands of yuan, not the rich family, and I really don't dare to spend it so indiscriminately.

"You're talking about Die'er, well, I'll go and call Die'er, and Childe can rest in the side room for a while. Seeing Song Zhenguo Lusheng's serious face, the boat lady didn't dare to delay. Among these sons, there are not many guests who can be as bold as Song Zhenguo, and those children of official eunuchs, although they have a strong background in the background, they are not as generous as Song Zhenguo.

Lu Sheng and the two were guided to a side room, resting and waiting. Soon the butterfly was called in.

Die'er looked weak and well-behaved, Chu Chu was pitiful, wearing a light green thin waist dress, and holding a flute in her hand, as if she was preparing to perform the flute for the guests. At this time, he was called over, and he was also ignorant.

"Song Gongzi, may I ask you to call Die'er, what do you have to ask?" she asked softly.

"Let me ask you, do you know where the prince Wang Ziquan you accompanied the night before yesterday is now?" Song Zhenguo asked in a deep voice.

Die'er looked dazed.

"Wang Ziquan Gongzi? I remembered, didn't I go back with Song Gongzi and you? Die'er was very tired at that time, and as soon as you left, Gongzi, you got off the boat and went home to rest. ”

"Have you gone home to rest?" Song Zhenguo was stunned.

"Yes, at that time, Die'er picked up the guests three times in a row, and she was so tired that she told the boat lady as soon as it was over, and she was one of the first people to get off the boat. Butterfly replied in a whisper. "What's wrong? What's going on??" she was a little apprehensive.

Lu Sheng stared at her tightly, his eyes sharp, but he couldn't see any sign that Butterfly was lying.

"Let me ask you, did your ship close after we left?"

Die'er nodded hurriedly, a little uneasy to be stared at by Lu Sheng.

"Yes, yes, as soon as the three sons left, the boat lady closed. ”

"Then I'll ask you again! After closing, will this ship usually hang red lanterns?" Lu Sheng asked again.

"Red lantern?" Butterfly was at a loss, "What red lantern? Every day after closing, our ship sails directly into the nearby dock for maintenance, and the ship is not allowed to light the lights during the maintenance, only the people who repair the ship can light the lights." It was the same yesterday. ”

"Drove into the dock, didn't it stop here?" Lu Sheng's heart was shocked.

"No, we only come here on the flyout when we're doing business. The wind and waves here can be very strong occasionally, isn't it easy to be blown away by the wind when you stop here?" Die'er glanced at Lu Sheng strangely.

Lu Sheng was faintly worried in his heart. Wang Ziquan, I'm afraid that he is the same as him, on the painting boat full of red lanterns.

"Brother Lu..."Song Zhenguo became more and more strange the more he listened to it, he didn't know what the meaning of Lu Sheng asking these questions was, in his opinion, the red lantern boat should be Lu Sheng's mistake. But at this time, I still listened patiently.

"Don't you have a big boat here that is full of red lanterns at night, and empty of all people? Lu Sheng was unwilling and asked again.

Butterfly blinked.

"Where did you hear about the big ship full of red lanterns, this boy, and do you know what kind of red lanterns we have here to hang them?

Only when the girl on the ship dies will three red lanterns be hung at the door and inside her room.

One is at the door, representing the way, and two are in the room, representing the sacrifice and rest. ”

When Lu Sheng heard this, he was shocked.

He remembered the strange boat, the boat was full of red lanterns, and all the rooms, in front of every wing, there were red lanterns!

And the way to hang is exactly what Die'er said, hang one at the door, and two in the room!!

"Oh, it's scary, Childe, don't you listen to a ghost story somewhere and come to scare Die'er, right?" Die'er was also a little scared, and goosebumps came out all over her body.

"Moonborn..... You're afraid you're not really dreaming, aren't you?" Song Zhenguo also looked at Lu Sheng with some concern. Lu Sheng's character is the word Sheng, so he called him Yuesheng.

When he was in Jiulian City, Lu Sheng rarely used this word, and everyone there called him Shenggongzi and Brother Sheng. But here I came out to study, and the word called represents closeness, and it is more formal.

"It's okay.... I'm just...."Lu Sheng hesitated, but still didn't say anything about the door locked in the red boat. Even if he said it, Song Zhenguo didn't necessarily believe it, and even if he believed it, it was useless.

"But since Ziquan didn't come to this painting boat, where will he go??" Song Zhenguo said worriedly. "This is about to take the annual exam, if you break the rules of the academy and can't sign up, it will really destroy your future!"

"If the two sons are fine, Die'er will go and play the flute music for the guests. Butterfly whispered.

"It's okay, thank you Die'er. This is your reward. Song Zhenguo took a few pieces of broken silver and gave it to her.

Die'er suddenly became happy, this is her own income from painting boats. She carefully slipped the broken silver into her purse, turned and walked gently towards the door. Halfway through, she suddenly remembered something, and turned back to say by the way.

"By the way, this boy, Die'er has heard a ghost story, which is passed down among the girls on the ship.

It is said that there was a red boat on the Songbai River in the past, and the name was Red Mansion, but then there was a fire, and none of the girls on the boat were left, and they did not escape. Then the legend of the red boat spread on the Songbai River...... It is said that the boat was full of red lanterns, and no one who got on the red boat ever got down. ”

Lu Sheng perked up and hurriedly stopped Die'er.

"Girl, can you tell us the story of this Red Mansion painting boat?"

"Uh... Die'er has only been doing this business for a short time, and she doesn't know much, but isn't Song Gongzi getting along well with Jun'er girl? Sister Jun'er thinks about Song Gongzi every day, she has been on the boat for a long time, and asked her if she should know. Butterfly whispered.

"Understood. Lu Sheng nodded, "You go." ”

Die'er walked out of the room, Lu Sheng and Song Zhenguo didn't speak, just silent, each thinking about their own things.

After a while, Jun'er, who was wearing a plain white low-cut short skirt, walked in, and when she saw Song Zhenguo, her beautiful eyes lit up.

"Song Gongzi!" There was a hint of affection in her eyes unconsciously.

"Jun'er!" Song Zhenguo stepped forward and gently hugged Jun'er. "I haven't seen you for a few days, are you okay? I have enough money for the bow of the ship, and no one can order you but me. ”

Jun'er nodded slightly, with a hint of happiness on her face. "Jun'er knows that Childe is good to Jun'er....."

"I've been waiting for when Jun'er will promise to redeem my son for you. Song Zhenguo said softly. "Okay, this time we came here to ask about the prince Wang Ziquan who came with us the night before.

Do you know if the prince came back to this ship the night after we left?"

"Wang Ziquan Gongzi?" Jun'er recalled, "It was already late that night, didn't that Wang Gongzi get off the boat with you?

"Are you sure he never came back?" Lu Sheng asked.

Jun'er nodded: "Sure, because that night, I temporarily delayed a little time, and I left the ship at the latest." Do the math, just a stick of incense after you leave, Childe. ”

"Really..... That's weird...."Lu Sheng groaned.

Song Zhenguo asked a few more questions one after another, and Jun'er answered them one by one, which was no different from what Die'er said before. The two couldn't find a clue, so they got off the boat in desperation.

"Now I am afraid that I will report to the official. Song Zhenguo sighed.

Lu Sheng shook his head: "I'm afraid, I'm afraid, it's useless to report to the official...."

Song Zhenguo glanced at Lu Sheng, not knowing why.

"Brother Song, go back first, I'll be here today, it's getting late. Lu Sheng reminded, "I have to take the small test tomorrow." ”

"Okay, I'll go back first, Yuesheng, if you have any clues, you must remember to inform me. Song Zhenguo sighed again and separated from Lu Sheng.

watched Song Zhenguo get into the carriage and gradually move away. Lu Sheng recalled that when he interrogated with Die'er and Jun'er before, the other party's reaction did not have the slightest flaw.

"It seems that they are not lying, but if the red boat is not the one we were on before, how can my money bag fall on it?" Lu Sheng wondered in his heart.

He had a vague premonition that he might be involved in a new trouble.

.................

Song Zhenguo sat in the carriage and sighed.

He is a person who values love and righteousness, Wang Ziquan happened after he was with him, and there has been no news so far. In any case, he has to give an explanation to the Wang family.

Besides, Ziquan is also his friend and brother, and if he can't see it, he will disappear, such a big person is on the side of the Songbai River.

"Could it be ....." he suddenly thought of a possibility, "Could it be that he stumbled and fell into the river!?"

"No! I want to see people alive, and I want to see corpses when I die! Ziquan was brought out by me, and if something really happens, then it is my Song Zhenguo's responsibility!" Song Zhenguo was stunned and made up his mind. "If something really happens to Ziquan, I'll go and report to the official!"

He had already decided in his heart.

"But in this case, what should Jun'er do?" he thought about it, and thought of Jun'er he was in love with. He has to spend thousands of taels of silver tickets a month alone, just to keep Jun'er intact and not let other guests order her orders. For this matter, the old father of the family has quarreled with him no less than ten times.

As soon as he thought of this, Song Zhenguo had a headache again.

When he got home in a hurry, he got out of the car and paid the money, and when he entered the courtyard, he hurried to his room, not wanting to see anyone in the house for a moment.

Several maids saw him and were about to greet him, but in a blink of an eye, they couldn't see him.
