The streets and alleys of Qingzhou are very lively, with three-story blue bricks and tiles, layered ancient buildings, burgundy wooden door frames, semi-circular window frames, slightly old, on the open-air platform, the signboard of the Supreme Auction is hung high, and on the square mahogany table, mysterious items are placed, covered with red cloth. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The shopkeeper said with an appetite: "The sun will be revealed after the sun goes down, and everyone will come to our store when the time comes." ”

The night withered grass stopped in front of the Supreme Auction, and curiously looked at the things under the red cloth, a bulge on the top, the volume is not large, what kind of treasure will it be?

"Don't look at it, it's Liu's Mansion in front, don't forget to get down to business." Xiaotian reminded.

The largest wealthy merchant in Qingzhou, the blue brick wall, four heavy wooden doors are closed, the black lacquered wooden plaque with gilt trim on the outer frame is engraved with the golden word 'Liu Fu', there are four gatekeepers standing in front of the door, each with a long sword at the waist, and the main gate is impossible to enter easily.

Without saying a word, Xiaotian jumped onto the fence and sneaked into the backyard.

The night withered grass, who was still thinking about how to get in, repeated in his mouth: "Purple flowers...... Purple strains ...... "The scalp is numb, and the picture is intermittent.

I recall that in the courtyard of the general's mansion, he was dressed in a snow-white straight-placked robe, the drape of the clothes was excellent, and the waist was tied with a wide belt of moon white auspicious cloud pattern, on which only a piece of ink jade with excellent jade quality was hung, and the shape seemed rough but simple and gloomy. The black hair was tied with a silver ribbon at will, without a crown or hairpin, and a few strands of hair on the forehead were scattered by the wind, intertwined with the silver ribbon and flying, looking quite light.

His eyes were like warm snow that had not yet melted in spring, shining, crystalline, soft, dazzling, and seemed to have an undetectable coldness.

His lips are as warm as jade, the corners of his mouth are slightly curved, and his faint smile is like the March sun, which is comfortable and comfortable.

He inserted a purple flower into the sideburns of the night withered grass, and said in a gentle voice: "Little sister, this is what my brother brought back when he was guarding the northern border, and it will never wither again, do you like it?" There are many more such seeds, and the flowers in the yard will never wither again. ”

The immature face, time stayed on the young night withered grass, jumped happily, and said happily: "I like it!" Like! ”

The figure of the man kept repeating in his mind, and the purple flower of the General's Mansion, the man was ......

That's right! That person is the eldest brother Yedu, and the purple flowers of the General's Mansion are planted by him.

Night withered grass remembered bit by bit, carved the three words of the general's mansion on the wall of Liu's mansion with stones, and ran in the alley with great anticipation, eager to return to the general's mansion now, feeling uneasy, hoping that everything was not as he thought now.

There is a black gold silk nanmu plaque hanging at the top of the red vermilion lacquer gate, on which the dragon flies and the phoenix dances with three big characters of the general's mansion, the magnificent light yellow wall, which is twice as high as the wall of the rich merchants, can not be underestimated, and the guards at the gate stand still with a serious expression.

Night Withered Grass wandered back and forth, thinking about how to get in, indicating that no one believed in the identity, a flash of inspiration, yes! There's a dog hole in the backyard, and I don't know if it's still there.

Ran to a diamond-shaped hole in the backyard, lying on the ground, the head got into it first, but the body was stuck, it was really grown, this hole was not suitable for Miss Ben, with all her strength, she squeezed into the dog hole in pain, and looked at the east wing room without the glory of the past, it was deserted, and there was no one, sneaking into the room that belonged to the night withered grass in the past.

There is really a purple flower in the yard, so beautiful! Why is there only one flower and no other flowers? It's really strange, it's so quiet that it makes people shudder, where have the big brother and big sister gone.

My mind is filled with memories of the past in the General's Mansion, and my father will always tell me a lot of stories about him and his eldest brother fighting on the battlefield, and the eldest sister rushed to listen, so my mother took the eldest sister back to the room, and the picture of a harmonious family was really happy.

The follow-up picture is very sad, the ten-year-old night withered grass is holding a bowl of porridge made by parents and children, taking it to honor her mother, and she died violently soon after drinking it, becoming the murderer of her mother, no one believes in herself, only the eldest brother firmly believes that she cannot do anything to kill her mother. The culprit of all this is that he has a pair of hands that will wither flowers and plants when he touches everything, and his hands are covered with highly poisonous pollen, and his father gradually no longer wants to see an ominous person like her, and only publicizes the eldest brother and eldest sister outside, in order to no longer see her and think of the past, and finally locks her in the west wing, and after a long time, the door has never been out.

The night withered grass returned to reality, and after thinking about it, he couldn't figure out what the connection between this purple flower and the corpse was.

Xiao Tian coldly floated out from the roof, and said, "How did you know that the purple flowers are in the General's Mansion?" It's really easy for me to find. "Jump off the ground.

The night withered grass panicked for a while, covered up, and lied: "I asked the passers-by to hear that they had seen flowers of this color in the General's Mansion, so I came over to take a look first." ”

Xiao Tian held his chin, his tone was firm, and he analyzed: "That's right, the identity of the deceased must be the maid of the general's mansion, and she must have seen something before she died, and the purple flower in her hand obviously wants to tell everyone something, but it's a pity that General Night and Night Du fought on the battlefield, and there was an eldest lady who went to the palace to accompany the princess, I think there are assassins in the mansion and no one knows." ”

After hearing Xiaotian's affirmation, Night Dry Grass began to panic a little. The deceased was a maid in the General's Mansion, so I saw Xiao Tao's soul last night, this is ..... Suddenly his face changed greatly, and he felt sad, who killed Xiao Tao, why did he wake up that day and he was also in the deserted pool, the injury on his foot was the same as Xiao Tao, could it be the same murderer? Be sure to ask Xiao Tao for clarification.

Xiao Tian didn't know the situation, but saw that the night withered grass turned pale, and whispered: "Let's go!" Join them with the clues you find, and I guess it's time to find us at this hour. ”

Night Withered Grass followed Xiao Tian all the way, with a black face, and lowered his head silently, passing by the signboard of the Supreme Auction again, and a group of people gathered in the audience to coax each other.

Dressed in a purple long skirt, wearing a white thin smoke veil, if the shoulders are cut into a waist, if the skin is condensed and the air is like a quiet orchid, the waist is folded in a slight step, the wrist is in the light yarn, the eyes are full of spring water, and the white jade carved hairpin is inserted obliquely on the head, half holding the ink hair, embellished with a little purple jade, the tassel is sprinkled on the green silk, and the red moon pattern on the forehead is unforgettable, and the white gauze on the face is half covered, and the mysterious woman hidden under the veil.

The night withered grass can see the gods, the saliva is dripping, and the people are so beautiful.

At a glance, Iyama saw the figure of the night withered grass in the crowd, walked over and put it on her shoulder, and teased, "What do you want?" The saliva is coming out, and I haven't wiped it off quickly. ”

The shopkeeper propagandized: "Everyone be quiet, the time has come!" The auction is now open, and the highest bidder wins. ”

It is the time of sunset, the entire Qingzhou City is clothed in a golden veil like cicada wings, by the dusk moment, the moment the red cloth is uncovered, a dark blue bell makes a crisp bell, melodious, spread throughout Qingzhou, shooting out a blue light through the sky, covered with mystery.

Everyone was stunned by the two layers of superimposed colors, and they couldn't come back to their senses for a long time.

Dao Weiming clenched his fists, the corners of his mouth twitched because of anger, and his eyes were full of murderous staring at the shopkeeper.

Xiao Tian asked Dao Weiming in surprise: "If you are not mistaken, that bell just now is not an ordinary bell, it is called the epidemic bell, and the blue light and crisp bell emitted can control the spread of the epidemic, and it can also control the dead body, isn't this what Dao Shang Moshui has been developing?" Why is something so important here? ”

Bang -

A smoke bomb was thrown into the crowd, and unexpectedly, the masked woman in purple standing in the crowd took advantage of the chaos to steal the bell, so fast that she couldn't see her figure at all, and disappeared into the crowd.

When the smoke cleared, the mahogany table was empty, and the shopkeeper fainted on the spot.

There was chaos in the audience, and they withdrew from the Supreme Auction one after another, and Xiaotian withdrew with the night withered grass.

Dao Weiming was in a trance, his feet seemed to be heavy, his fingernails were deeply inserted into his palms, and drops of blood slipped to his wrists and dripped on the ground.

Jingshan forcibly pulled away the rice that was blurred and refused to leave.

The four people in the study of the mansion had their own thoughts, and no one spoke, and the night withered grass quietly left and returned to the wing.

took out the plum blossom silver hairpin and put it on the table, and called softly: "Little Peach, come out quickly, I have something to ask you." ”

The silver hairpin flashed with white light, and the looming figure floated in mid-air, looking at the night withered grass weakly: "Miss." "The voice was weak and indistinct.

Nightdry Grass asked worriedly, "How did you become like this?" Is the hairpin too dirty or too old? "The brain hole is wide open, and I wipe it repeatedly with the corner of my clothes, and my soul should be clear now!

After being wiped by the night withered grass, his soul became weaker, and Xiao Tao finally confessed: "The master and the eldest young master are not here, don't go back to the general's mansion." After saying that, the soul returned to the hairpin.

No matter how the withered grass tossed in the night, Xiao Tao didn't come out again, and returned to the study nervously, just hearing about today's bell.

"Don't come in yet? Are you so fond of eavesdropping? Xiao Tian said coldly.

Night Dry Grass walked into the study awkwardly, and everyone didn't speak as soon as they came in, and the depressed atmosphere couldn't help but speak: "I saw that it was a woman who stole the bell." ”

Jingshan said in annoyance: "Aren't you talking nonsense? We all saw it, and the problem was not to see the features. His eyes turned to Dao Weiming, and comforted: "Don't worry too much about it, tomorrow we will set off to find your senior sister, and everything will fall into place." ”

Xiaotian also attached: "Yes! When you get to the ancient village of Changlao North Town, everything will be understood. ”

The Nightshade Grass mentioned the clue and said, "I saw the red moon mark on the woman's forehead. After hesitating for a moment, he couldn't help but ask, "What to do with that maid's corpse?" ”

Dao Weiming got up and pulled out a smile: "You can't just sit still, there is a moon mark on your forehead, could it be that you are a female disciple of Yue'e Mountain...... Things are getting out of hand, so we'll set off tomorrow to hope that nothing has happened to my sister. ”

"The body is still in the wing, how is the identity checked?" Dao Weiming continued to ask.

Xiao Tian stared at the night withered grass and said: "The identity of the corpse is clear, the maid in the general's mansion can't be wrong, this matter can't be further investigated, I'm curious about the identity of the withered grass now." ”

Jingshan gushed about the situation that day: "Just a little white face, not even the power to bind the chicken, the last time I fainted, I tried my hand, my chest was soft and not strong at all, and I found the unknown wound on the foot, and the person who started it can be said to be extremely cruel." You offended someone, you said you didn't have a trick and a half to come out and mix something! He glanced at the withered grass with disdain, and immediately closed his mouth, knowing that he had said something he shouldn't have said.

"Didn't you tell you not to touch her? You...... Touched! Xiao Tian scratched his head and left a sentence at Jingshan: "You can watch it!" ”

The night withered grass grabbed Jingshan's neck, his face was flushed with anger, and he roared angrily: "What have you done to me?" ”

Jingshan pulled away the hand of the night withered grass, ran when he saw the opportunity, and said with a smile: "It's nothing, I tried to see if your chest was not strong, why did you react so much?" ”

Dao has not yet played a round and said: "Don't make trouble, don't you want to set off tomorrow for a long spoon!" You guys go and prepare your luggage, and if you're still in the mood to make trouble, I'll go to the West Wing. ”

When the two of them received the words of the rice not yet clear, they went their separate ways, and no one paid attention to the words that the night withered grass was complaining.

The night was silent, the night withered grass full of worries came to the corpse room, and the thin body dragged the sack heavier than himself to the backyard, I understand that you need to be in the ground, it is the young lady who is incompetent, killing the people around her, tears in her eyes, frantically digging the soil under the big tree, bleeding from the back of her hand, and her reason has been lost.

Why can't a day be peaceful, and do you have to die to continue your life?

The night withered grass knelt on the ground and dug a very shallow pit, which could not bury a person at all, and said to himself: "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! In fact, your young lady was also killed, I will no longer watch someone die, I will live together with your young lady's wishes. ”

Xiaotian threw the shovel beside the night withered grass, with a cold appearance and an interrogating tone: "Say it! Who are you, and what does the corpse have to do with you? ”

Wiping away from her tears, Nightdry Grass said, "Would you be happy if someone close to you died?" I just want to put her to rest in peace and erect a monument, so that no one but me cares what happens to her body. The more he talked, the more excited he became, and he choked up: "You just treat me as a maid who escaped from the General's Mansion, ask so much, and I'm not a murderer." ”

Xiaotian apologized and said, "I'm sorry! I don't know if that's the case, no wonder those night people are chasing you along the way, and I'll help you dig a little deeper. "Hands-on help shoveling soil.

The night withered grass was buried in the dug hole along with the sackcloth, and the earth was spread with his own hands, and a small hill was piled up, and a wooden stick was stuck on it, and he knocked his head three times, and apologized: "I'm sorry! I can only bury you simply, hoping that you can live a carefree life in another world, without these murderers who kill people without blinking. ”

Xiaotian was softened by her in front of her, and reminded in a low voice: "I have prepared a few sets of men's clothes for you, put them in your room, can you go back to the room to try the fit, now it is not convenient for you to appear as a daughter, those killers must still be looking for you." ”

Nightdry replied expressionlessly: "Thank you!" I'm back in the room, you can rest early, and please don't tell them about today's events. ”

Xiaotian watched the sad back of the withered grass leave.
