Yu Chusheng and the three of them almost visited the entire Lin Mansion, and also asked some people. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The words in the mouths of the subordinates are almost exactly the same, Lin Jiashu and Qiu Chenghuan have a good relationship as husband and wife, Lin Jiashu is very good to Qiu Chenghuan, but Qiu Chenghuan has been very cold to Lin Jiashu recently, it seems that it is because of an affair with other men.
Someone saw Qiu Chenghuan hugging a man in the middle of the night, and it was Qiu Chenghuan who took the initiative to hug the man.
But the people who saw this scene didn't dare to stop it, but they still accidentally said it, so you said it to me, and this matter spread in the Lin Mansion.
There was a place where they did not go.
Passing through the arched door, very close to the garden, there was a courtyard, and in the distance, Yu Chusheng saw an old man, sitting in the sun, not knowing what he was doing.
But in the middle of summer in July, the old man was very tightly wrapped.
The people of the Lin Mansion said that it was a forbidden place, and the old man who lived in it used to be the housekeeper of the Lin Mansion and was loyal to Master Lin, but then he got some infectious disease, and Master Lin remembered the old love and did not drive him away, but let him stay here to retire.
But his illness is really weird, he can't see the light, and when he sees the light, pustules will appear all over his body, and he will be contagious. So it became a forbidden place, and the descendants of the Lin family were not allowed to go there, and he was not allowed to come out.
No wonder the bag is so tight in such a hot weather. The old man also saw Yu Chusheng and them, he only showed a pair of eyes outside, Yu Chusheng couldn't see his expression clearly, but he always felt that there was too much pain and despair hidden in those eyes.
You can live the rest of your life in peace, but no one wants to stay in a cage.
Yu Chusheng's mind suddenly popped out of that mask again.
When Yu Chusheng and the others were about to leave, they saw that the old man walked out of the courtyard with something in his hand.
Teeter. The old man looked to be in his sixties, with a hunched back, and one leg seemed to be inconvenient, limping.
He was dressed thickly, with a cloak on the outside, and his face was tightly wrapped in cloth, revealing only a pair of eyes full of old tears.
The gardener who had just told Yu Chusheng about the people living in the courtyard was still standing next to him, and when he saw the old man coming out, he was startled, retreated several times, and pointed at him and said, "Uncle Liu, why did you come out?" Go back, go back! This is the ...... of the government office, "I should be afraid that I will contract that strange disease."
And Tang Feng and Tang Tian, who had been following him all the way, also immediately ran over and protected Yu Chusheng.
Yu Chusheng was a little speechless: "What are you two doing here?" ”
Tang Feng said: "Didn't someone say ...... just now"
Yu Chusheng helped his forehead and said helplessly: "You two retreat, it's okay." ”
The two of them hesitated for a while, glanced at the old man, listened to Yu Chusheng's words, and retreated.
The old man called Uncle Liu kept shaking his head, standing two meters away from Yu Chusheng and them, and didn't dare to get closer, but he took the thing in his hand and waved it at Zhang Er, and his mouth began to make sounds, but Yu Chusheng couldn't understand a word.
The old man's throat must have been broken, and he was babbling, dumb and dark, and he couldn't hear what was being said at all.
"That mask, it's exactly the same as last night!" Zhang Er was the first to speak.
Only then did Yu Chusheng pay attention to the thing in the old man's hand, which was indeed a leaf vein mask.
It's just that this mask is brown, and the lines on it are also very real, and after a closer look, Yu Chusheng found that this mask was carved out of wood.
Uncle Liu shook the mask in his hand while babbling something.
The gardener continued to persuade: "Uncle Liu, go back quickly, after a while, the young master will see it and let people beat you again." ”
Hit him? Lin Jiashu looks so gentle and elegant, a man who will let people do it?
Yu Chusheng asked: "Why did you beat Uncle Liu?" "Such an old man, his leg is lame, and even his throat is broken.
The gardener seemed to realize that he was talking too much, his eyes rolled, and he quickly explained: "Uncle Liu has that kind of disease, the young master is afraid that he will come out and infect us healthy people, but Uncle Liu doesn't listen, he always runs out secretly, and the young master also wants to punish Uncle Liu for our good." ”
Uncle Liu kept shaking his head, and the hand holding the mask was trembling.
Why does Uncle Liu have this mask in his hand? What is the relationship between him and the man who was burned to death with Qiu Chenghuan, and whether that man has anything to do with the Lin Mansion.
Yu Chusheng thought for a while, patiently walked in front of Uncle Liu, and was so frightened that Uncle Liu hid back, probably because he was afraid that his disease would be transmitted to Yu Chusheng.
This mask also has wood shavings on it, which must have been carved just now.
That Uncle Liu should be making a mask just now.
Yu Chusheng said patiently: "Uncle Liu, what do you want to tell us?" You speak slowly, don't rush. She always felt that this was a very important clue.
Uncle Liu nodded eagerly, and the tears accumulated in his eyes remained.
He kept waving the mask in his hand and struggled to make a voice from his throat: "Less...... Few...... Father...... I...... I...... Looking for ...... Few...... "Young ......" said this, he began to cough violently, and he should not be able to speak.
Yu Chusheng thought for a moment and said, "You want to find the young master, right?" "What is he looking for Lin Jiashu to do.
Uncle Liu nodded vigorously and began to shake the mask in his hand again.
Why did you shake the mask in your hand when you were looking for Lin Jiashu? Is there any relationship between the two?
And the gardener continued: "I advise you to stay away from him, for he has no normal mind except for that disease......
Yu Chusheng went to see him, he pursed his lips, and continued: "How could the young master see him, he was infected with this disease, but it can't be cured. ”
Uncle Liu still shook his head, pointed to the sun in the sky, stretched out a hand and shook it from side to side.
Seeing that Yu Chusheng and Zhang Er didn't understand, he ripped off the face towel on his face again, and the gardener who provoked him was shocked again.
Yu Chusheng was a little scared, if Liu Bozhen's brain was not normal, and he had that kind of disease, he tore off his face towel like this, she was really afraid that she would also have that kind of strange disease.
After all, she doesn't know much about that kind of disease, so it's better to be careful.
However, Uncle Liu didn't have the pustules they said on his face, but he looked a little dirty, and there was a long scar at the beginning of his mouth, which looked like it had been a long time.
Yu Chusheng went to look at Uncle Liu's hand again, except for being thin as firewood, there was no other pustule on it.
Uncle Liu made a few more intermittent sounds: "No...... No...... No...... Saw ...... Few...... "...... "Another violent cough.
Yu Chusheng was confused when he heard this, but his heart moved, and he said, "Can I look at the mask?" ”
