Chapter 496: The Woman in Red in the Corner
I was startled, grabbed Niu Chongyang's clothes, and quickly took out the black flute, and among the nine holes on the flute, the black mist began to slowly drift outside, and Niu Chongyang's face. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info was getting darker and darker, and gradually, he couldn't walk anymore, and with a plop, he fell to his knees, and then lay down and didn't move.
I stuffed the flute into my arms, picked up Niu Chongyang and hurried back to the Jinyi Wei Palace, and when I summoned the imperial doctor to treat him, I returned to my room first. I knew I might have gotten into trouble this time.
Taking out the flute from his bosom and looking at it again, there was no black mist in the nine holes on the flute. But the flute was very cold in the palm of my hand, and I stared at the flute carefully, and the material of the flute did not look like bamboo, nor did it look like iron, but like bones.
I've never seen a skeleton as black as jade. The black flute is carved with many quaint patterns, and if you look closely, the patterns are connected to each other, and they are intertwined around each hole.
After hiding the flute, when I went to the room where Niu Chongyang was, I was worried, I didn't know if Niu Chongyang would survive this time. Maybe I tricked him. Hey, curiosity kills people.
When I arrived at his room, a physician said to me, "Lord Qianhu, he is fine, he is just infected with a cold, and he can recover after a few more days of rest."
After that, I ordered someone to take some silver taels for the imperial doctor, and when I walked to Niu Chongyang's side, I looked at Niu Chongyang and found that his face had become very normal at this moment, no different from ordinary people, not only was it not dark, but his lips were still a little dark and bloodless, like a sign of physical weakness.
I instructed my subordinates to take good care of Niu Chongyang. These days, I am waiting for a good student, and I must not make any mistakes.
That night, I walked in the courtyard with a small teapot, only to see the dark clouds overhead, and when there was a dull thunder in the sky, a light rain began to fall a moment later.
And I was about to return to the house from the courtyard. At a glance, I seemed to see a woman in a bright red dress standing in the corner of the courtyard, holding a red oil-paper umbrella in her hand, standing in the corner of the courtyard and staring at me.
The courtyard of the Jinyiwei Mansion is very large, and the courtyard where I live is even larger, because the distance is too far, and it is in the corner, I don't see it too clearly.
In this era, there was no electricity, and there was no such thing as electric lights, and all the sources of lighting in the yard came from the two large lanterns I hung in front of the house. Macro throws blood.
I faintly felt that the woman in red standing in the corner just now had a very white face, and the shoes he was wearing were still the kind of ancient embroidered shoes, which had a feeling of three-inch golden lotus, which was very elegant.
I stood under the eaves, holding a teacup and looked towards the corner of the courtyard, squinting for a long time, and never saw the woman holding the red oil-paper umbrella again.
And when I turned my head to go back to the house, the moment I turned my head, I seemed to see the woman in red in the corner of the corner of my eye again, and I was surprised to find that I couldn't see her face clearly!
I could see her whole body, and I could see that her face was very white, but I just couldn't see her face, I couldn't see the expression on her face.
"Boom!" A thunderbolt fell from the sky, piercing the void, I don't know where it was, and this thunder illuminated the sky, and then I quickly looked closer to the corner, but found that there was nothing in the corner, only a grape trellis that had grown for several years.
I scratched my head, thinking to myself that I might be dazzled. Without much thought about it at the moment, he turned around and went back to the house.
And just as I entered the house, when one foot stepped into the house and the other foot was still outside, I seemed to see a middle-aged man wearing a melon skin hat, sitting on the Taishi chair in the middle of my room, counting money.
Because next to the Taishi chair, there was a table of eight immortals, so he sat on the chair, leaned sideways, put all his broken silver on the table of the eight immortals, and then used the small scale that specifically counted gold and silver, and began to weigh little by little. Looking at his serious expression, it seems that he can see the marks on the scale pole clearly in the dark night.
I was shocked again, and shouted: Who dares to break into this place at night!
With a bang, I pulled out the embroidered spring knife and threw it towards the Taishi chair, the embroidered spring knife cut through the void and slammed into the back of the Taishi chair.
When I walked over, I found that there was nothing on the Taishi chair, and there was no one at all, and I also deliberately touched the surroundings of the Taishi chair, and there was no temperature.
Because the wood is cold, if someone has sat on it, whether it is winter or summer, then this wooden chair will become hot, I let the Taishi chair touch all sides around, and the wood is cool everywhere, and there is no residual heat at all.
I scratched my head, thinking to myself if I was too suspicious? What's going on lately?
Pulling out the embroidered spring knife, I put the small teapot in my hand on the table of the eight immortals, and went to bed, because I am a bold person, so when I sleep at night, I never light the night light.
But tonight there was thunder and lightning outside, from the light rain at the beginning, to the current heavy rain, the whole sky was so dark that I couldn't see my fingers, which was really not enough, because if you didn't light a night light, you really couldn't see anything.
A night light was lit and covered with a veil, and only by doing so could the moths be protected.
Shortly after I got into bed, I kept thinking to myself: where do I go to find Wendao Lingyun?
The current Wendao Lingyun is still a child, if he is left alone, in another five or six years, he will be able to grow into a young man, and his appearance will change somewhat at that time, and it will be more difficult to find. And what I'm most afraid of is that the master around Wendao Lingyun will take him to find a famous doctor in the world, or a folk ghost doctor, and perform plastic surgery for him, so there is really no hope at all.
Sighing, I put my hands behind my head, just closed my eyes and wanted to sleep, who knows, with a lightning bolt in the sky, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the door, and a moment later, my door was pushed open.
I'm a little angry, it's not that I'm angry when I get up, it's that these people are too bold to rush in without asking, which is very impolite even in the 21st century.
"Who!"
I sat up and sat upright on the edge of the bed, my hands on my knees, majestic. I stared in the dark and breathed loudly because I was really angry.
"My lord, someone wants to kill me, please be the master of the villain!" As he spoke, the man knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing to me.
There is a night light in the house, I can see him clearly, but he keeps kowtowing and never looks up, I don't know what this guy looks like, but looking at the simple clothes he is wearing, it should be a miscellaneous subordinate in the Jinyi Wei Palace.
Since someone was chasing and killing him, it was reasonable to immediately rush in and report to me and ask me for help, so I held back my anger and said: Don't kowtow, you raise your head and tell me, who is going to kill you?
After he raised his head, he said, "My lord, I don't know who that person is, so he carried a knife and kept chasing me, chasing me."
As he spoke, he kept pointing out the door, his arms were still shaking, looking at his appearance, he was probably in his thirties, and this person was very kind-faced, not like that kind of treacherous person.
But I'm a person who never judges people by their appearance, and I often advise all my friends not to judge people by their appearance, and your appearance can only represent whether you are handsome, beautiful or not, and whether you look good or not. But that doesn't mean you're a good person or a bad person, because the face is the face and the heart is the heart, and these are two different organs.
"Let's go, take me to see it." I put on my flying fish suit, grabbed the embroidered spring knife, and immediately took this subordinate out of the room, and when I was about to go out, I took out an oil-paper umbrella from behind the door, handed it to him, and said: You help me hold the umbrella, I will help you support your waist!
He said gratefully: Lord Xie, Lord Xie, Lord Xie is really a good person, Qingtian.
I waved my hand and motioned for him not to talk about this uselessness, and immediately he stood behind me, helping me with my umbrella, and I walked out of the room and looked into the large courtyard, but there was no one in sight.
I asked: Who is going to kill you?
He said, "It's right behind the rockery."
I had just taken two steps towards the rockery in front of me when I heard a woman's frightened scream from the circular arch on the right.
"Ah......h
