A second โ˜… of small โ–ณ said ยง net.. Wonderful novels to read for free!

I know that what I have crossed back now is three days before Rong Qi's death. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

So counting the days, he should have met Ye Wanwan twice and liked her.

That's why I had the attitude of giving it a try, and I wanted to ask Zhang's mother to see if they knew anything.

I asked casually, I didn't want Zhang's mother to change her face.

"Miss Cousin, how do you know about that?" She said hurriedly.

"Mean woman?" I was stunned for a moment.

"That's right." Mother Zhang seemed to think of something, her face was resentful, and she took a sip of hatred, "It's that cheap woman of the Ye family, who dares to pretend to be an orphan girl, I kindly brought her back to the Rong family, she is good!" He even dared to seduce the young master! Luckily, we found out her true colors, otherwise our plan would have been ruined this time! โ€

I was stunned and hurriedly asked, "Are you talking about Ye Wanwan?" โ€

"Of course, who else would it be!" Zhang's mother's face was even more resentful, "The women of the Ye family are not good things, and the eldest lady of the Ye family, who has no face and no skin, even came to us to use the beauty of the family as an undercover agent!" โ€

I finally reacted now.

It turned out that Ye Wanwan was brought into the Rong family by Zhang's mother.

She pretended to be an orphan girl and deliberately came to the Rong family to spy on the Rong family's investigation of the Ye family.

Everything is indeed as Rong Qi told me.

I still have a lot of questions in my heart, but after all, Mama Zhang watched Rong Wushuang grow up, and I was afraid that if I asked too much, she would see the problem, so I had to give up.

I closed the curtain of the sedan chair and stopped talking, just walked quietly.

The people of the Rong family are all from the Xuanmen, and they are all in excellent health, and they have been rushing for a whole day and a night, and they have not stopped.

Later, when we came to the mountain road, we changed carriages and continued to move towards Xiangxi.

I was already shaken so that my ass was about to crack, and I felt that this ancient man was too pitiful, there was no plane, not even a car, and it was torture to go far away.

By the evening of the next day, we were already close to Xiangxi.

I don't want to, something suddenly went wrong halfway.

In the evening, when we were resting in a tavern, our people inquired with the shopkeeper of the tavern, and learned that there were bandits on the official road to Xiangxi in front of us.

"Bandits?" Mother Zhang listened and frowned slightly.

I know that according to the strength of the Rong family, they will not take bandits seriously, but this time, there are not many people with us.

What's more, after all, I'm a bride to be married, and if it is run into bandits, even if I am not captured, I am lightened or something, it is not good.

This is ancient times, and it is not very appropriate for a woman to show her face in public, let alone be seen or touched by a group of bandits.

After careful consideration, in order to prevent any trouble, Zhang's mother and the others decided to give up the official road and take a detour to the side road.

Although there will be some messy people on the road, after all, it will not be a climate, and there is room for family members, so don't worry.

Because the detour will take a few more hours, we decided to rush overnight tonight, in case we can't get to Ye's house before the auspicious time.

I didn't have a problem with that, anyway, I just sat stupidly, and after a few extra balls of cotton on my ass, we were on our way quickly.

In ancient times, there were no street lights or anything, and in the middle of the night, our group walked in the mountains, which was actually quite scary.

Suddenly, I heard a crisp ringing sound not far away.

Why is there a bell in the middle of the night?

I was so curious that I couldn't help but open the curtain and look out.

I saw some white flowers in the dark mountains and forests ahead.

My heart sank, and I quickly fixed my eyes to take a look.

At this time, the white light entered, and I realized that it was several paper lanterns.

By the light of the lantern, I saw the man carrying the lantern.

Suddenly, I gasped.

I saw a few people carrying lanterns, their faces were all pale and pale, their eyes were hollow and lifeless.

Not only that, but they carried lanterns, but they did not "walk" on the road.

Instead, it jumps forward and the knees can't bend at all.

It's like the zombies in the zombie movies I used to watch.

"Mama Zhang...... That's, that's ......" I couldn't help but ask with a white face.

Zhang's mother obviously saw those people too, but she was much calmer than me, so she just said lightly: "Oh, Miss Cousin, you don't often go out, so you don't recognize it, those are the corpse chasers in Xiangxi, so that these corpses can go back to their hometown for burial." โ€

I was stunned.

In fact, I have seen a lot of stories about corpse chasers in Xiangxi before.

Although corpse chasers sound like a very mysterious and yin profession, in fact, in the earliest, the reason for the birth of this profession is very simple.

It's just because at that time, there were many outsiders in Xiangxi who came to work, and these people who died in other places needed to go home and settle down. It was too troublesome to transport corpses directly, so the industry of corpse chasers was born.

Legend has it that the corpse chaser would walk at the front, waving the bell in his hand, and the corpses he needed to carry would follow him.

And the corpses, because after death, the knees and joints have become stiff, so they can't walk like humans, they can only jump and jump.

I couldn't help but look at the white lanterns, and sure enough, there was a living person in front of the corpses.

He wore a large jacket and kept shaking the bell in his hand.

That's the corpse chaser.

The earliest role of corpse chasers was nothing more than to carry corpses. But as time passed, there were also some corpse chasers with high metaphysical abilities, who were able to start manipulating corpses, doing things, and even killing people.

For example, the Ye family.

It is very common for corpse chasers to be in Xiangxi, because the corpses are somewhat unlucky, so they do not take the official road, and they all take the mountain path in the middle of the night.

Since this corpse chaser has nothing to do with us, Mother Zhang and they don't mind, but they just let the person carrying the sedan chair avoid it a little, so as not to collide with bad luck.

We walked for about a few more hours, and it was already midnight.

Suddenly, a member of the Rong family who was walking at the forefront suddenly came over and said to Zhang's mother: "Zhang's mother, look at this moon." โ€

I heard it in the sedan chair, and quickly poked my head out and looked up at the moon.

I couldn't help but be stunned when I saw this.

I don't know when, I saw that the night sky was already full of dark clouds, and after layers of dark clouds, the bright moon was not a bright white yellow, but a strange red.

My heart trembled.

Although I don't know anything about physiognomy, I also know that this blood moon is not a good sign.

Mother Zhang and the others are all descendants of the Xuanmen family, so naturally they also saw the clues, and immediately looked serious, and said, "This moon ...... It seems that there will be danger in this mountain forest tonight. โ€

"Shall we move on, then?" The others cautiously asked what Zhang's mother meant, and there was a little worry in their tones.
