Luo Wei turned around and went out, and under the protection of a group of officials, he returned to the Nanlu Courtyard thirty miles away in a sedan chair.

Luo Weishu also turned around and returned to the backyard, where Yuan Manqi was waiting for him to finish eating.

After retiring all the servants, the two chatted while eating.

"My lord, looking at the gloom between your eyebrows, isn't there something going on in the mansion?"

Yuan Manqi gave Luo Weishu a bowl of soup, and asked casually while handing it over.

"It's okay......"

Luo Weishu thought for a while, and suddenly asked, "Manqi, do you remember the maid named Ni Shang in your family?"

"I remember. ”

Yuan Manqi said: "But when I was at my mother's house eighteen years ago, Ni Shang was just a maid in a heavy door, and she was doing laundry, cooking and chores all day long, and she was not very impressed. It is said that a few years after I came, Nishang died. ”

Luo Weishu nodded, suddenly stared at Yuan Manqi and said, "It's dead that I'm dead, but I'm resurrected this afternoon." ”

"What?"

Yuan Manqi's eyes widened in shock, her eyelashes stood up, and her already fair face became even whiter.

A gust of wind swept in front of the window, and the image of the osmanthus tree swayed violently outside the window, making a strange scream.

Luo Weishu got up to close the window, looked at the black oppressive clouds outside the window, and muttered sadly: "The black clouds are overwhelming, it seems that the city will be full of wind and rain tonight."

The moment the window closed, a strong wind poured into the room, and Yuan Manqi was full of excitement.

That night, the city was full of wind and rain, and the entire Qingzhou City was shrouded in black clouds, and the torrential rain was pouring.

The more than 20 lanterns in the three major courtyards of the Yuan Mansion looked very gloomy, and as they were eighteen years ago, the clusters of egg yolk-like lanterns were still covered with a vague mist, like ghost eyes swaying in the wind and rain.

The old housekeeper Yuanfu lived in the room to the right of the first door, and when the rain came, he suddenly pushed the window open and let the rain hit his old face.

Looking up at the dark night sky, he recited a poem in a sad tone.

Black clouds overwhelm the gate of heaven,

Mountain rain is coming, May is cold.

Searching for a thousand years,

Dongyue Lingtan is looking for gold.

On the roof, a dark shadow heard Yuan Fu's chanting and laughed loudly.

The black shadow hooked the eaves of the rubble, just bent over and was about to lean over the window to attack Yuanfu, but Yuanfu closed the window in an instant, and with a "bang", the slender jade arm of the black shadow just touched the window lattice, and it was suddenly bounced open.

The black shadow immediately bounced back, leaned on the roof, and said to himself through gritted teeth: "This dead old man was already on guard, and he actually put a vajra cover around his room, no wonder I haven't been able to enter his room all these years." ”

As soon as you jump, you will disappear into the rainy night.

In the meeting hall of the triple gate of the Yuan Mansion, Yuan Zhe Yu was discussing important matters with Nangong Kanno, the Taoist head of the Nanshan Taoist Temple. This time, Daoist Nangong was invited as a distinguished guest.

In the afternoon of the same day, something strange happened in the Yuan Mansion, and not long after Nishang's body was brought back, the two family members who were in charge of the backyard guard died suddenly.

The backyard has Yuan Zheyu's big secret, and the two family members who died are also his henchmen.

Yuan Zheyu was very sad, because it wasn't until the souls of those two family members went out of their bodies that he found out that those two people were also the guards who had been following him for thousands of years of reincarnation, and they were also reincarnated in Qingzhou City after the collapse of Dongyue Peak a thousand years ago.

Until now, the three guards around him: two housekeepers and a maid have died. These people around you, who are they humans and who are ghosts? Are they from the spirit world, the demon race, or the underworld?

After Nangong Daoist finished performing the ritual for the two deceased, he was personally invited by Yuan Zheyu into the meeting hall of the Sanchong Gate.

This is the first time in eighteen years that Nangong Kanno has entered the triple gate of the Yuan Mansion for the first time.

"Dao Chief, in your opinion, those two were really killed by ghosts?"

The story of Ni Shang cheating corpses and biting people to death has spread throughout Qingzhou City, but Yuan Zheyu is still suspicious.

Ni Shang's body has been lying quietly in an empty room on the left side of the heavy door, if the corpse really bites, then how can the four family members who have been staying an inch not be bitten to death?

But judging from the wounds of the two deceased, the blood hole on the neck does look like it was bitten to death by a ghost, with twisted hands and feet, a hideous face, and a very miserable death, which made Yuan Zheyu feel heartache and shudder.

"According to the patriarch, could it be that he was bitten to death by a living person?"

Nangong Kanno was a little resentful, but it was not easy to attack.

It is his conclusion to deceive the corpse and bite people, and the old man's questioning is tantamount to announcing that the famous Nangong Daoist has told a lie.

Yuan Zheyu smiled a little embarrassedly, and said: "The Taoist is a master of Taoism, how dare Yuan suspect it? There is only one thing that Yuan is puzzled about, and he is very strange, according to the report of the four guards of the corpse, Ni Shang has been lying down and has never moved, how did she bite someone to death?"

Nanshan Dao Chang glanced at Yuan Zheyu with slanted eyes, and said incomprehensibly: "This demon girl was originally a thing from the underworld, Ru Mao drank blood, and if she wanted to bite two people to death, why did she need the corpse to move?"

"Oh......"

Yuan Zheyu nodded, feeling a little measured in his heart.

Nangong Kanno rolled his eyes, pondered for a moment, and said word by word to show the importance of what he said: "The demon girl and those two family members are actually evil things, and it's better to die." However, the patriarch must follow the method mentioned by Poor Dao before, and suppress these three corpses in the underworld three hundred zhang below Dongyue Peak as soon as possible, so that their souls will never be reborn, otherwise, within three days, I am afraid that there will be greater heresy in the Yuan Mansion. ”

"Oh......"

Yuan Zheyu nodded again, sighed and asked: "If you want to bury the three corpses in the underworld of three hundred zhang under Dongyue, I am afraid that it may not be possible to do it within three days, and it will take some time to make a hole." ”

Nangong Kanye glanced at Yuan Zheyu, and said lukewarmly: "If the old man really believes what I say, there is naturally a way, if you don't believe it, you might as well wait for another three days to know and say goodbye." ”

Get up and go out.

"Oops...... Dao Chief, you are ......"

Yuan Zheyu hurriedly chased out the door.

"The Taoist chief stayed. ”

Calyx suddenly ran out of the main room on the right side of the chamber.

The current Xiaocao has lived in the main house of the Yuan Mansion for many years and has completely become the internal housekeeper of the Yuan Mansion.

The eldest lady Wen and the second aunt Tailu had already been driven into the "cold palace" in the wings on both sides.

Hearing Xiao Cao's shout, Nangong Kanno, who had already walked into the middle of the courtyard, paused, but did not look back.

"Get out!"

Yuan Zheyu suddenly whispered viciously at Xiao Cao, Xiao Cao's body leaned forward slightly, but he didn't dare to take another half step.

"Daddy!"

Yuan Qianwei also ran out of the Ziwei Pavilion on the right side of the council room, just in time to hear Yuan Zheyu scolding his mother.

"Why do you do this to your mother? My mother kept the Taoist for me. ”

"Hehe, what do you have to ask the Taoist chief?"

For his daughter Yuan Qianwei, Yuan Zheyu has always loved him like a pearl in his palm, and he is obedient.

Yuan Qianwei ignored her father, ran straight to Nangong Kanno's side, and even pulled the arm of the Taoist without hesitation, which was very kind.

Only then did he turn back to Yuan Zheyu and say, "I'm seventeen years old this year, I have to ask the Taoist chief to give me a calculation, and see if my Prince Charming is in the east?
