Chapter Seventy-One: A Pile of Dry Bones

Seeing that the two little girls had entered, the Heavenly Master had no choice but to close his eyes and jump in.

The two grandmothers stood at the entrance of the cave with worried expressions on their faces. But the master had already entered, so they had to obediently stay at the entrance of the cave, praying for the master's safe return.

The three of them went down the stairs and kept going inside. The red fox also looked at the small flame in his hand from time to time. If you find that there is not enough oxygen, it is better to withdraw in time.

I don't know how long I walked, but I saw a clearing suddenly appear in front of me, with many torture instruments and many dry bones. According to the bones, most of them are male. Among them, there was a male skeleton with a knife stuck in it. There are also three female dry bones. There was a man whose bones in his hands and feet were broken, presumably under a very heavy penal sentence.

Ah Jun and the Heavenly Master were frightened enough by this scene in front of them, and the two of them stood far away, watching the red fox put on gloves and inspect the bones of the corpses on the ground, and the two of them felt that their legs and stomachs were a little tendoned.

After the inspection, the red fox took the two of them and continued to walk forward, walking and walking, the heavenly master suddenly asked, "Girl, is this direction to the palace?"

Red Fox nodded, "Uncle, do you know that General Chu, who is the original owner of this house?"

The Heavenly Master pondered in his mind for a while, "I heard that when General Chu was young, he was also a young man and handsome, and he was extraordinary. Even in middle age, there are many daughters who are fascinated by it.

Moreover, he was friends with the previous Heavenly Master, but the previous Heavenly Master suddenly disappeared, and not long after, General Chu's daughter died unexpectedly. When Mrs. Chu heard the news, she was grief-stricken and disappeared.

Some people say that Mrs. Chu committed suicide by throwing herself into the lake because she couldn't stand her daughter's death. Some people also say that Mrs. Chu eloped with someone. In short, there is everything to say.

General Chu also fell seriously ill because of this series of blows. Not long after returning to his hometown, the people went. ”

The red fox listened to nothing, but Ah Jun sighed for a while.

"General Chu is so pitiful, he has suffered one after another, and no one will be able to accept it. ”

The Heavenly Master sighed and said, "When I heard that General Chu had passed away, even the emperor and queen were sorry. Such a rare Confucian general is gone. ”

Hearing the sigh of the two of them, the red fox interjected coldly, "Maybe it's self-inflicted, and you can't live." ”

Seeing that the two of them looked at themselves in a daze, Red Fox was really speechless, "You won't forget that pile of white bones, right?"

The Heavenly Master looked disapproving, "That white bone looks like it's been around for years, maybe it was done by another owner of this house before General Chu? Maybe someone else did it behind General Chu's back? Why do you say that General Chu did it?"

The red fox was also stubborn, turned around directly, and said to the Heavenly Master: "If you don't believe it, how about we make a bet?"

Although the Heavenly Master muttered a little in his heart, General Chu's personality was praised by everyone, and he didn't believe that the pile of white bones was all because of General Chu.

Then he asked, "What are you betting on?"

A wicked smile appeared on the red fox's face, "If you win, I will be at your disposal in the future, but if I win, you will listen to me in the future." ”

The Heavenly Master thought about it, and now he was a person in someone's house, and he originally listened to this girl. It's a no-brainer for yourself. If she wins, this little fox-like girl will have to listen to herself, which is a big benefit.

After thinking about it, the Celestial Master still felt that he would win.

"Okay, that's it. ”

The two hit it off, and the three of them walked for an unknown amount of time, and saw steps in front of them. The red fox took out the radio and gave it to the Heavenly Master and Ah Jun. The three of them stuck to the board above and listened to the noise from above.

I heard a familiar voice come into my ears, "Niangniang, you haven't slept well lately, why don't you find a doctor to take a look." ”

Then came the Empress's voice, "Recently, this palace has become more and more uneasy in my heart, worried about the name on the edict. Could it be, already 。。。。。。 ”

While massaging the queen's head, Mama comforted: "Rest assured, the fourth prince is fair, and the ministers outside are all impressed." The emperor has often praised the four princes recently. Niangniang, this is too hearty. ”

The queen sighed, "I really hope that Jing Feng can succeed to the throne sooner, and the palace will be able to survive even if it comes out." ”

"Rest assured, Niangniang is blessed, and from now on, it will be a good day. ”

After a while, the voice continued to come from there, "I heard that Chu Rao and the others have sought kindness for that house?"

Mama nodded, "Yes, but the princess didn't agree." Seeing that the princess had no intention of giving or buying or selling, the slave maid thought that this house would eventually fall into the hands of the mother. ”

The queen snorted coldly, "Although Chu Ming hid the secret very well, he was only afraid of what happened." It's better to keep this house in your own hands. ”

"Niangniang said it very much. ”

The queen looked at her already old hands, gray temples, and said lonely: "Xu is the palace is old, and recently I can always dream that Mulan and the palace were riding horses and playing together when they were young. ”

"Maybe you've seen the eldest princess a lot lately, so you're like that. ”

The queen didn't continue to discuss, "Fuben Palace will go lie down again." ”

The three of them listened again, but heard nothing but the Queen's whispering breathing.

The three of them walked back, and halfway through, Red Fox asked, "Who is Mulan?"

The Celestial Master was a little stunned by what he had just heard, and when he heard someone whispering in his ear, the Celestial Master came back to his senses.

"What?" the Celestial Master asked, looking at the red fox.

Red Fox asked again, "Who is Mulan?"

As the name entered his ears, a bright smiling face quickly appeared in the Heavenly Master's mind.

Some nostalgic said: "Concubine De's sister-in-law." A beautiful and kind woman. ”

Seeing the expression of the Heavenly Master, the red fox said casually, "You like her?"

The old Heavenly Master's face turned red, his expression was a little nervous, his eyes widened, he looked at the red fox, and hurriedly denied it, "What nonsense." The little girl's family has no taboo to speak. That's what a girl should say?!"

The corners of the red fox's mouth raised slightly, and he said affirmatively: "You really like her." ”

The Heavenly Master wanted to deny it, but saw that the red fox walked away very quickly.

The three of them came to the clearing again, and the Heavenly Master and Ah Jun looked at so many dry bones, and they felt a little unbearable.

"Girl, let's bury these people properly. ”

"Now is not the time. Red Fox paused, "Chu Ming is the Chu general." Heavenly Master, I won our bet. ”

Thinking of this, the Heavenly Master's heart became even more uncomfortable, "How can the rumored hero be so ruthless." ”

The red fox pointed to the dry bones scattered in the pile and said, "Those people should have dug this tunnel and been wiped out." He pointed to the man and the woman who died together, "The woman must have been tortured here, and the man came to save her, and when they were leaving, they were found and killed." Based on these things on the scene, as well as the words I just heard from the empress, I guessed that this should be Mulan and the previous Heavenly Master.

And these two dry bones, killed with one knife, directly cut the neck bone, can have such a force, should also be a person who practices martial arts.

Able to move freely to the backyard, coupled with the tattered clothes, I guess this is the missing Mrs. Chu and her maid. ”

The Celestial Master listened to Red Fox's speculation in surprise, he didn't believe it. But when he boldly approached the dry bones of the man and woman, he felt a familiar aura, which was only available in the body of the Heavenly Master. plus a string of orchid bracelets carved from peach wood on the ground, which he carved by himself and gave to Sister Mulan.

The Celestial Master believed. These two people are really the two most important people in his heart, but he didn't expect them to die tragically here.

The Heavenly Master knelt in front of the two dry bones, holding the unformed bracelet, crying uncontrollably.
