Chapter 149: The First Seven

I don't know if it's revenge on Buri Gude, in the next few days, Zhenmin killed several maids in a row, and the methods became more and more cruel each time, once Xia Yejin actually saw her directly set up a big copper stove in the backyard, and after the water boiled, she stripped naked and threw it in.

She turned pale, and before she knew it, she bit her lower lip into a neat row of tooth marks.

In my heart, I greeted the eighteen generations of the ancestors of Gongchen back and forth, and what was wrong with the habitual speaking halfway? Even if the previous ones have reservations, at least they will not be a great threat to life. But this time! Why didn't this person even tell her in advance the fact that Lord Zhenmin was a brutal and unbridled female demon?!

"Still stunned?! The county lord asked you to go to the garden, did you go?! ――”

The round-faced maid saw Xia Yejin in a daze on the spot, and reached out to push her.

After being pushed like this, she remembered that Zhenmin asked her to go to the garden to fold a few fresh peonies just now, and quickly nodded in fear.

The round-faced maid put on an expression of "how the hell have you survived like this", looked at her deeply, and motioned with her chin to let her hurry up.

Originally, I didn't think about it, but it wasn't until she stepped into the garden that Xia Yejin realized that this was a task that could not be completed at all. It was cold, and the garden was full of dead branches, not to mention fresh peonies, and not even a single new green leaf bud could be seen.

There are a few plum trees on the high slope not far away, can you replace them with plums? Xia Yejin didn't know, if it didn't work, would she be the next person to be boiled in the copper furnace?

What if you run away?

Joke!

This is Da Yuan's territory, so far the task has not progressed, there is still a blank on the wrist, there is no sign of red dots at all, in this case, she can't contact Gong Chen at all, the whole world is not the king's land, where is she going to run?

Upset and irritable, Xia Yejin grinded her teeth so much that she squeaked, she had never wanted to arrest Gong Chenshi and beat her up like now!

As he was grinding his teeth, the air around him suddenly felt a little strange.

Belch? ……

Xia Yejin sniffed, what does this smell like?

A burnt smell.

Could it be that Zhenmin was not addicted to boiling a living person just now, and this time he will have another charcoal roasted living person?

The garden was foggy, and it was dark early in early spring. A row of Xiangfei bamboos by the nearby waterhole is unusually dense, and the green hair oil is heard to be used as fertilizer from the corpses of the killed maids in the house, which makes people feel even more cautious.

After only standing for a while, I felt a chill to my bones.

Just when Xia Yejin decided not to meddle in his business and planned to go back and think of a way, when he turned around, he saw a fire under the dirt slope not far away, speckled and not big, but it was particularly conspicuous in the dark garden.

When I approached with my heart, I saw that there was a maid squatting next to the mound and burning paper money.

The curling white smoke meandered upwards in the firelight, ethereal, and then was blown away by the northland wind in an instant, and disappeared without a trace.

Subconsciously tightened the robe on her body, Xia Yejin suddenly remembered that someone said that Zhenmin's biological mother hanged herself under the old locust tree in the front yard wearing a red brocade robe.

"She's burning paper for that who has gouged out her eyeballs."

Leng Buding's voice came from behind him, almost scaring Xia Yejin's soul away.

Zhao Mu saw her bloodless appearance covering her chest, and added, "Today is her first seven." ”

“…… Why did you suddenly kill her? "Even if you don't care, you're curious.

"She stole the county lord's jasper hairpin."

Xia Yejin didn't speak again.

Maybe Zhenmin is not wrong. In their perceptions, maids and maids belong to untouchables, and untouchables, like slaves, cannot be regarded as human beings in themselves, let alone free in life, and at most they are just living creatures that can be bought and sold. Such a person is no different from livestock, the power of life and death is already in the hands of others, what is the big deal if he makes a mistake and kills one or two?

She has experienced so many things since the mission, and she has always thought that her mentality is cold-blooded and rational enough, but in the face of such a bloody scene, she will still be sad to see those fresh lives disappear in an instant.

She suddenly missed the Jiangnan water town where Qian Yi was located, gentle and peaceful, scholarly and angry, even if it was a quarrel and brawl, it had a glutinous and soft taste.

After her mood stabilized, she found that Zhao Mu was still standing next to her, so she looked sideways at him and said, Do you remember what happened before?

Zhao Mu stared at the row of lush Xiangfei bamboos in front of him, the expression on his face was obscure, and after a while, he answered the question, "Are you feeling sorry for her?" ”

"A living person...... Xia Yejin said halfway, but suddenly he didn't want to say any more, Zhao Mu was not the Fu Qingzhu he used to be, maybe he was used to such a scene.

The paper money had been burned, the maid stood on the side of the dirt slope for a while, suddenly took a gourd scoop out, went to the waterhole next to it and scooped a scoop of water to wash the ashes of the paper money, subconsciously looked around, and did not seem to find anything unusual, so she was relieved to get into the plum forest.

Xia Yejin saw her appearance clearly through the faint light, with the delicate spirit of Jiangnan in her beautiful face, looking like a Han person.

"If you are too soft-hearted, it will be difficult to survive here."

Seeing the maid leave, Zhao Mu spoke.

Xia Yejin looked at the table of dishes and drooled.

Delicate and crispy jade shrimp bucket, fragrant steamed yellow croaker, charcoal-grilled oysters wrapped in finely minced garlic, sour and spicy pickled drunken crab, squirrel mandarin fish with bright sauce, crispy fried with thin skin and thick bottom, golden and crispy fried mushroom slices, pink and clear butterfly dumplings, sweet but not greasy osmanthus sugar lotus root...... Plus a big bowl of soft and glutinous and delicious round sugar porridge.

God knows how long it had been since she had tasted seafood and delicate snacks, and she was so excited that she almost didn't eat the whole table and put it in her stomach.

But the table was too big, and her arms were too short. After enough several times in a row, he couldn't successfully eat the food in his mouth, Xia Yejin was annoyed and simply climbed onto the chair. This time, her vision instantly widened, and she smiled and sandwiched a crispy fried shrimp ball, and was about to put it in her mouth, when suddenly a pair of chopsticks stretched out from the side and snatched the shrimp ball with lightning speed.

The thing that came to her mouth was cut off, and Xia Yejin hurriedly stretched out her hand and made a left hook - she immediately opened her eyes in pain!

The towering stone wall was covered with green vines, and she was lying on the edge of a stone table, three of the four fingers of her left hand had broken the skin - the left hook in the dream had hit the hard stone wall beside her.

When he looked up, he found that there was still a person standing beside him, Zhao Mu was looking at her condescendingly with big eyes, his thin lips were pursed, and although there was no obvious expression on Qingjun's face, there seemed to be a trace of ...... in his eyes Promote narrowness?
