CHAPTER XXII

My sister pulled me out of the moon-walking arch on the second floor, walked to the staircase next to it, and after a while, I turned into the backyard of a winding path meditation room in the garden. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info this is the place where my grandmother loved to meditate and recuperate when she was a child, and it was once regarded as a forbidden area in the home, because my grandmother did not want others to disturb her during her meditation, so few people came. At this time, the fog in the garden was quite heavy, and the humidity added a thin layer of autumn to people's clothes along the way, and the more they went inside, the heavier the moisture became, as if they also poured a layer of worry into people.

I didn't understand my sister's purpose for avoiding everyone and bringing me here: "Sister?"

"Shhh My sister will tell you later, I want to take you to see something now. ”

I was anxious about the people upstairs, and I didn't think there was anything beautiful to attract me at this time: "Sister, Senior Brother Haizhu Shifang, they are all upstairs, it's not good for us to leave them out like this, okay?"

My sister sneered, it was completely different from just now: "The family is about to change, and I still care what others think?" Who do you see that? ”

I followed my sister's gaze, and saw that in the direction of the garden leading to the west hall, the little girl I had just seen from the window sill on the second floor was hurrying towards my grandmother's house.

It turned out that the time was so long, from knowing that there were ghosts in the family, coming to Fu and dying, following my senior brother to the luncheon, knowing that my second uncle was smoking, Han's mother's identity as a blood droplet, Min Ye, my senior brother was injured, and it only took three days! It was so long that I almost forgot the "promise" that would be three days later this morning.

"Sister, when did you find out?"

My sister looked at me, her eyes were like waves, and she was shallow in the direction where Xitang was, and a touch of fierceness flashed in the corner of her gentle eyes: "Since my affairs were known by the second aunt for no reason." She paused and continued, "Little sister, aren't you surprised? I think I know it. ”

I didn't know how to answer, I wanted to bother my sister at that time, but looking at her expression at this time, I had a faint feeling of guilt: "Sister, I ...... I'm afraid to distract you, that's why I ......."

"I know, you all think I'm getting carried away for Mr. Gu." My sister said, took two steps back, took my hand again, and quietly walked towards the garden. I followed behind her, and I had thousands of words to explain to her, and when the words came to my lips, I felt that I didn't need to explain anything. My sister is such a woman with a blue heart, since she avoided everyone and brought me here, she no longer cares about the previous things, so why should I be blindly persistent?

My sister and I turned from the meditation room to the side door of the west hall, the little girl has walked to the corridor where she met with the man three days ago, this group of people is really cunning, my grandmother's west hall is the inner house of Liu's house, and the construction has always been based on skill, the consequence of this is that the corridor is heavy and heavy plus the ear room, even if my sister and I are close, we can't hide in the ear room like Gu Shaoqing and I did a few days ago and hear their conversation clearly.

I saw the little girl leaning sideways and handing a white note to a man in a black horse coat, who was wearing a black top hat, his head was lowered, he couldn't see his appearance clearly, and his voice was almost like a gnat, which made it difficult to distinguish for a while.

The little girl didn't stop much, and after handing over the things to the man, she turned around and left, but she looked like she had a light gray money bag in her hand than when she came. Her eyes were obviously much quicker than just now, as if she had completed a difficult mission, and her eyes were full of joy and longing after victory. It's just that this happiness that even the corners of her mouth are filled with didn't last long on her face before it was vigorously penetrated, and the man in black who was still standing in the corridor just now quickly raised his knife and decisively ended up with the girl who had just finished delivering the news to him.

The bright red blood flowed rapidly, spreading along the azure embroidered clothes, Ah Mei looked incredulous, she wanted to look back at the murderer who stabbed her from behind, but she was taken a few steps backwards by the short knife, leaving the long corridor of the West Hall, and dragged to the side of the room where the door was hidden, only the transparent azure crossed the sky, and stayed for a long time......

My sister covered my mouth and went to cover my eyes with her other hand, but unfortunately she covered it too late, and the glance that my sister unintentionally threw before she died was deeply imprinted in my mind and could not be dissipated. What kind of mastermind is behind this, killing the few servants left in our family one after another.

I cried silently, fear, and fear came at the same time, and unspeakable pain swept over my heart, and I couldn't move for a while. My sister hurriedly dragged my body back, and there was no longer any light wind in her eyes, and she was confident. She didn't expect that someone would be so ruthless and brutally kill a living little girl! Next, will he see us who have just been secretly observing from a distance? My sister couldn't answer, she couldn't judge, she could only try not to cause a stir, and tried to pull me away before the man came out of the room.

I can't imagine if that scene just happened or not, half a quarter of an hour ago, I was just worried about how to persuade Han's mother to hide my brother's matter, and then my sister came in, although I was worried that she would see my brother, but I never thought that my sister would pose any threat to me, and now, I followed my sister to the West Hall to catch the thief, but I witnessed another accident happening, and even I would encounter a threat of life and death!

I couldn't believe how it all happened. How did we get to where we are today?

Leaving Xitang, my sister pulled me and ran quickly. There are many trees in the garden, and even if someone pursues them, they may not be able to get out of the winding backyard for a while.

By this time, the sun had fully risen, the fog in the garden had long since dissipated, and the blue sky hung straight up in the sky, as if it had not seen the bloody scene just now. My sister gasped for breath, her face turned pink from the rush with me, and the blue hairband was a little loose, and one or two strands of jet-black hair fell.

"Sister, take a break. That man probably didn't see us, or ......"

My sister thought about it, nodded in agreement, and pointed to the meditation room she met when she just came and said, "Then let's go into the meditation room and rest for a while, and then make plans."

"Okay."

The furnishings of this Zen room are still placed by grandmother at the time, there is a white statue of Guanyin on the shrine in the middle of the house, the color seems to be caused by the official kiln during the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, there is a three-foot-high cloisonné square bottle on the ground, there is nothing in it, it is a sign that no one has cleaned it for a long time, there is a golden three-legged small tripod on the black lacquer sacrifice case, and the incense ash inside is still the yellow agarwood incense specially made by Yuning Fang three years ago. Because of the change just now, my heart was beating very fast, and when I saw my grandmother's old things, I felt a lot calmer, and my breathing was not as violent as I had just now, so I calmly looked back at my sister.

However, I only heard a "bang", and the door was actually closed by my sister from the outside, and this change came so quickly that by the time I reacted, my sister had already dropped the copper lock.

"Sister, what are you doing here?"

I pushed the door hard and hard, and the carved ebony stood in front of me like a heavy wall, motionless and silent in protest.

My sister's voice came from outside the door, still calm and calm as before: "Little sister, you can pray in your grandmother's meditation room for the time being."

I was so angry that I couldn't believe my sister would do this: "Sister, what the hell are you going to do? First they brought me to catch the thief, but now they want to imprison me? ”

"Captivity? Well, if I imprison you, I brought a man into the boudoir without my father's consent, so that I should indeed confess to the Bodhisattva regardless of etiquette. She said, not waiting for me to speak, and turned away. I listened to her departing footsteps, unable to believe what was happening, and shouted urgently: "Sister, sister, I was wrong. You open the door, let me out, let me out......"
