Chapter 19: There Are Ghosts
The night was dark, and the homeless people were asleep. One of the officers and soldiers in charge of the guard www.biquge.info pen ~ fun ~ pavilion had fallen asleep, and only Lu Ren was awakened by urine in the middle of the night, got up tremblingly, and went outside the house to relieve himself. When he solves the problem next to an old tree and lifts his pants, he finds himself lost.
This house was originally surnamed Tang. In the night, these Tang family's houses were all the same in Lu Ren's eyes. The gray tiles, the black windows, the dark red gates, the sparse shadows of the barren grass and branches, no matter how you looked, all around were the same, so that he couldn't tell the direction he came from for a while.
Lu Ren scolded secretly, and walked forward in one direction first. As soon as I walked a few steps, I felt a cold wind behind me. He craned his neck and looked around, and saw the sound of iron weapons and armor rubbing against each other in the other direction. The homeless people would never make such a sound, so the people over there must be Li Er, an officer and soldier who was guarding with him, and if he followed the sound, he would definitely find the place where he came.
The sound of armor rubbing was intermittent, always not far in front of Lu Ren. Lu Ren followed and thought to himself, "Could it be that this kid got lost after waking up at night?" ”
was about to walk a few steps quickly to catch up with Li Er, but suddenly found that he followed the voice to a place similar to an ancestral hall. The door of the ancestral hall was wide open, and only the broken and collapsed offering table could be seen inside, and there was no tablet on it, and the whole room was empty.
Rao is Lu Ren is bold, but at this moment, when a person is so close to the ancestral hall, he feels that the surroundings are gloomy, and it seems to be a little cold. He felt that something was wrong, so he planned to return the way he came. But before he could open his legs, he heard someone shouting from behind him:
"This is the Tang family, how dare you trespass in!"
The sudden shout frightened Lu Yiren for a while, and he didn't take a step forward. But I didn't want the voice to shout again:
"Are you Jinjun? Impossible, how could my Great Yan land sneak into your Jin army! ”
Jin Army! Big Swallow!
Lu Ren's brain exploded with a bang.
But Dayan has been destroying the country for more than ten years!
Only then did Lu Ren remember that the current Wangyun City was not the boundary of Yan Country before!
Lu Ren turned his head stiffly and slowly, wanting to take a look at whether it was a person or a ghost behind him, but found that the direction of the voice was the empty ancestral hall.
"Who? Who's pretending to be a god there! ”
Lu Ren didn't believe that he would hit the ghost with his back. But the truth is always the opposite. In the ancestral hall facing him, several humanoid phantoms suddenly appeared. The voice came from the mouth of the phantom that was moving:
"Since you are here for immortality, you are wrong. That thing has never been touched by our Tang family. If you want, you should go to Tu's house. ”
The phantom on the opposite side seemed dissatisfied with his explanation, and suddenly pulled up one of the phantoms on the ground, and then slashed down. He could even see the black shadow of blood splattering from his neck.
"'Changsheng' is indeed in the hands of the Tu family, at least they are also aware of the news of 'Changsheng'. By the way, even if there is no such thing, there is still a map, and the map of 'Changsheng' is in the hands of the Tu family. If Old Ghost Tu doesn't admit it, you can go to his secret room to find it. His secret room is in ...... Yes! ”
The scream of this phantom was like a slap in the face, and immediately frightened Lu Ren, who had been frightened, to jump, and then ran out of the ancestral hall like crazy, and the things in his hands were still on the ground. And the phantoms in the ancestral hall also dispersed after this scream.
Lu Ren screamed and ran like crazy, waking up the guards and victims in the house. His crazy appearance makes people believe what terrible things have happened to him.
After Lu Ren beat that night, people began to become extremely suspicious and timid, and they would be afraid whenever there was any trouble. But at the same time, the rumors that these old houses are haunted are slowly spreading. Although the government sent additional people to guard near the old mansion, the rumors still flew out of the mansion like wings and flew into the ears of the people of Wangyun City. It turned out that he had seen a similar scene, not only Lu Ren, who was guarding the Tang Mansion, but also several other mansions that were open to homeless people, and similar things had happened. And all the rumors imply that the reason for the extermination of these families is related to the Jin army and "immortality". The rumors are getting more and more detailed, and some even say that the fall of the Yan Kingdom was because of "immortality".
At first, these rumors only spread among the common people, but soon, they spread throughout the elite class of Wangyun City. Even General Li's wife, who lived in seclusion, heard it.
Although Liu Feifei didn't pay much attention to the things outside, she was sitting in the general's mansion, and her eyes were not dark. She had already learned from Baili Feng to attach importance to all kinds of news. She was not as good as Bai Li Feng, presumably the latter not only knew about the news for a long time, but could even get some more detailed and in-depth things. It's just a ghost story, but she'll find something else out of it.
Especially when it comes to "immortality." ”
Dinner was eaten by Li Fan and Liu Feifei, and Li Fan's concubines were not brought with them.
"Meng discussed with me today, her nephew Lu Ren is sick, she wants to go out to see him, and the concubine agreed."
Since Liu Feifei has now become the head mother of the General's Mansion, the concubine must report to her if she wants to go out. After she agreed, she had to talk to Li Fan, lest when Li Fan went to look for someone later, she found that Meng Shi was gone.
Levan nodded, signaling that he understood.
Liu Feifei pondered for a moment and asked:
"Have you ever heard about those old mansions?"
"Yes."
"The concubine body is just a little curious, what do those families and 'immortals' refer to?"
Li Fan's action of serving the wine was slightly sluggish: "It's just a rumor, don't believe it." Whether our army killed those families back then, I'm afraid no one will know better than me. Obviously, he also heard some nonsense about "the Jin army slaughtered the family".
"What do you mean, sir?"
"Thirteen years ago, I once came to Wangyun City with the army. But before we arrived, the people of these families had already been looted by bandits. Except for those who were killed by the bandits, the others had already fled, leaving only the empty house. In order to destroy the corpses, those bandits also set fires in an attempt to burn down all the houses. My men and I tried to save people and fires, but we didn't save a single one. Speaking of this, Li Fan's face was a little gloomy.
However, Liu Feifei didn't notice it, and just sighed: "Poor people, they were all famous families in life, but after death, no one even collected their bones." ”
"It's fate." Li Fan seemed to see the corpses all over the ground again, and saw the bruised face of the girl in his arms.
"If only I had arrived earlier. At that time, the corpse was not yet cold, just a little, almost ......"
