Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Ghost of the Wedding Dress
On this day, it was just dark.
Zhao Li carried a bamboo rattan food box and walked towards the outside of the village.
On the slightly dark road, he walked in a hurry.
Thinking that he was already halfway through the unitary time, and he had just gone out with a food box, he couldn't help cursing the stupid woman in his heart.
Every day at the end of the Shen unitary, it is the time when he needs to deliver food to Yang Lao, it has been going on for several years, and that loser can still forget it, so he has to say that he forgot the time to play mahjong.
"Lao Tzu has retired you sooner or later. ”
Zhao Li said angrily, with a thick resentment and fear on his face.
The time of delivering meals every day was the last time of the day he wanted to live, but the money given by Yang Lao was so rich that he couldn't refuse at all.
When he was young, he was lazy and not good at martial arts, so he couldn't go hunting and quarrying to support his family like the warriors in the village.
It's too tiring to be an honest farmer.
Therefore, even if that house is heavy, even if that house always has a chilling feeling, even if Yang Lao is obedient and withdrawn, he must go hard.
After all, one stick of incense a day for a round trip, plus a good meal and a good dish, you can get five taels of silver out of thin air every month.
Over the course of a year, there are sixty taels of snowflake silver
Many of the quarrymen who tied their lives to their belts didn't earn as much as he did.
It's much more comfortable than the days of licking blood from the edge of a knife.
"Knock knock. ”
Coming to a post, a large mansion with vermilion and blue bricks appeared in front of him, Zhao Li stepped forward familiarly, knocked on the beast pattern copper ring on the vermilion gate, and then stood quietly at the door and waited.
At the same time, the eyes staring at the beast pattern copper ring couldn't help but have a little more envy and curiosity.
No one knew how much money the old man had when he came to the village five or six years ago.
If he hadn't lived on this small hill hundreds of meters away at the end of the village, the big mansion with blue bricks and Zhumen in front of him would be the first mansion in Tailuo Village.
Some people say that Yang Lao was once a bandit leader who killed people, was chased and killed, and passed out on Tianxing Mountain, only then was rescued by the quarry team of Tailuo Village.
Some people also say that Yang Lao used to be a wealthy businessman, and he was used to living a life of fine clothes and food, glory and wealth, so he came to Tailuo Village to retire, and even when he usually went to the quarrying team, he was just loosening his bones and moving his body.
Some people also say that Yang Lao is a lonely star, specializing in others, and was abandoned by his family, so he came to Tailuo Village alone, otherwise there is no way to explain that as soon as he follows the quarry, the quarrying team will definitely have an accident.
It was okay before, after all, every time he followed only one person died, but this time it was different, the entire quarrying team of twenty-three people, twenty-two died, and he ran back alone, and Shang Wu, who was also waiting for them, also disappeared, which made the rumors about the Tiansha Lone Star in Tailuo Village more and more noisy.
The villagers who died in the family even openly clamored for Yang Yue to get out of Tailuo Village, and he couldn't let him harm the villagers.
For these people, Zhao Li scoffed.
Even in Tailuo Village, in fact, he has the deepest fear of Yang Yue and the most fearful, but in the face of such a relaxed and worry-free parent, he is reluctant to let the other party leave like this.
"No, I have to talk to the three fat people when I go back, and I want to shut up those people. By the way, I have to tell Yang Lao about this matter, after all, Lao Tzu helped him solve such a big trouble, and the money must definitely go up ......."
Just when Zhao Li was rubbing his hands and laughing, secretly estimating how much money he would need, the big red vermilion door was suddenly opened.
An old man with a nose like an eagle's beak and a gloomy face leaned out of the Zhu Gate.
"Why are you late today?"
"I'm sorry, Old Yang, the mother-in-law at home is disobedient, I forgot the time to play mahjong today, you are angry, and when I go back, I will definitely whip her hard." ”
Zhao Li bowed his body, snorting, cowardly.
"Alright, give me the food, you can go back. ”
Yang Yue waved his hand impatiently.
"Old Yang, it's still ...... One more thing?"
Lifted the bamboo and rattan lunch box on the ground and handed it to the old man in front of him, and at the same time he lifted the lunch box brought by the old man from the ground, which contained the leftovers from the old man's last night's leftovers and unwashed dishes and chopsticks.
Every day, his job is to bring the food box with the food and go back with the lunch box left over from last night's meal.
"What, something's wrong?" Yang Yue's eyes stared, and his eyes hanging upside down like triangles exuded terrifying might.
Zhao Li was frightened in his heart, and immediately put away the idea of "helping the other party control public opinion and increase money", waved his hands indiscriminately and said: "No...... It's nothing, I just want to tell you that there is braised fish to eat tonight, you know, my mother-in-law's fish is delicious, I just want Yang Lao you to taste more, you want to think it is delicious, next time I will let her make more. ”
"Count you kid a little filial. Yang Yue smiled, revealing a sense of uncertainty, and then sent Zhao Li away, and then slammed the door shut.
"Hey, don't think the old man doesn't know what's going on in your heart?"
After closing the door, Yang Yue immediately restrained the smile on his face, snorted twice, and said disdainfully: "Wait a few days, when the old man leaves, he will definitely wash the entire Tailuo Village in blood, for the sake of your boy's delivery of food, the old man will definitely leave a whole corpse for your husband and wife, but the soul, the old man will accept it, if you two have a good life and can carry a hundred ghosts to devour each other, maybe there is a chance to become the twelve yin ghosts under the old man's command, and when the time comes, we can be regarded as continuing the frontier." ”
"Take it. ”
"Nourishing ......"
In the courtyard, a strange syllable emanated from a thick mist, and then the mist, and in the middle of a breath, a thin woman wearing a bright red wedding robe appeared in place.
Her face was extremely pale, her black hair was shoulder-length, and she wore a pair of bright red embroidered shoes.
Taking the lunch box in Yang Yue's hand, the woman walked behind her step by step, her red eyes were as red as blood with a thick resentment and evil thoughts, which could not be seen at all if she didn't look carefully.
Because most of the time it disappears, and at this time, a submissive expression of a beast after being tamed will appear on the woman's face.
"It's not good, it's toxic. ”
opened the lunch box and picked up two chopsticks, Yang Yue felt a pain in his abdomen, like a knife twisting, suddenly his expression changed greatly, he threw away the dishes and chopsticks, and spit out a mouthful of blood to the ground.
"No way, the old man obviously tried it with a silver needle before. ”
His face suddenly became gloomy as ink, and Yang Yue immediately remembered Zhao Li, who had just left, and his heart moved, and he was about to urge the red-robed female ghost serving beside him to go and arrest him.
At this time, a voice suddenly came along with the sound of the Zhu Gate being smashed.
"Not every poison can be tested by the silver needle, so people, it's better to read more books and read good books, so that you can make progress, right?"
"Is it you?" Yang Yue was surprised: "I thought it was Zhao Li's kid, but I didn't expect your kid to be alive." ”
"The old man who dragged Yang was just breathing. Shang Luo arched his hand, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his face seemed to be smiling.
Looking at the woman in the big red wedding dress, she was a little surprised.
According to the village, Yang Yue is a widower, old and without a wife, with no children under his knees, plus he has always been eccentric and gloomy, and there are not many people in the village who are willing to get close to him, and the only one who is familiar with him is probably Zhao Li, who delivers food.
Shang Luo's poison was placed in the food cooked by Zhao Li's wife for the other party, and the process was also a lot of tricks.
Even so, the woman's identity is quite suspicious, especially the strange red wedding robe and the excessively pale face, which is almost like a ghost in the play.
