Liansheng circled around Shangshu Mansion, hoping to find clues about Gu Lianzhen's disappearance.

Aunt Feng's room is in the back corner of the backyard, and to come from Gu Lianzhen's room, you need to go through the entire backyard. In the meantime, he may pass through every corner of the backyard. Lian Sheng walked out of Gu Lianzhen's room, walking along the route he might take, and at the same time considering the pace of a twelve-year-old boy late at night, figuring out his mentality, but there was no suspicious sign along the way, she walked all the way to the door of Aunt Feng's room, and stood still. Xu Yan asked, "Master, did you find anything?" ”

"Nothing." Liansheng shook his head.

After searching the Gu family for most of the day, it was already Shen Shizhong, and it was dinner time.

The maids and daughters of Shangshu Mansion have been released after asking, and they are so frightened that they don't dare to come out.

At this time, a woman in her twenties, with a good appearance, walked up to Liansheng and bowed, and then asked, "It's all time for dinner, the third lady will eat at home." ”

The person who came was Gu Yijing's biological mother, the only half of the remaining master in this mansion, Aunt Yun, she only had the title of aunt for a few years, Liansheng had contact with the Gu family in the past, her biological daughter was raised by the Chen family was extremely arrogant and unreasonable, this Aunt Yun herself looked at it and was quite honest.

"Don't bother Aunt Lao." Liansheng saw that these subordinates were managed by her in an orderly manner, and praised: "Auntie is really capable, and the backyard will be in charge of the aunt in the future." “

"What? The old man and the second lady can't be released for a while? Aunt Yun asked tentatively.

"This depends on the final investigation results, and Aunt Feng's death is still doubtful." Lian Sheng glanced at Aunt Yun. asked in a low voice: "What does the mansion have to say about the disappearance of the third young master?" ”

Aunt Yun looked at no one around, and then whispered, "I heard what the next person said that the third young master was captured by a ghost." ”

"Captured by a ghost?"

"That's ......" Aunt Yun paused, hesitated and showed fear on her face: "It was said that Mrs. took him away." ”

"Madame took it? There has to be a reason for that, right? ”

"It was said that someone said that at night they heard the crying sound in the room where Mrs. used to live, and it was haunted." Aunt Yun said this when Xu Yan, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but shiver, and then she saw a slender and tall grandmother walking towards this side with a food box.

This grandmother is quite tall, ordinary-looking, and looks very honest, so she walked up to Aunt Yun and saluted respectfully: "Auntie, dinner is here." ”

"Third Miss, it's getting late. I called the kitchen to prepare a la carte. If the third lady is busy with official business, it is better to take it back to eat. ”

"Thank you Aunt Yun for your trouble."

Xu Yan took the food box from the grandmother's hand with a very good look.

"This grandmother looked at her." Liansheng stared at the mama.

"This Mama Yang has been managing Zhuangzi, and she has only come to the house in the past few days."

Aunt Yun explained.

Lian Sheng took Xu Yan and the others away, and Aunt Yun kept sending them to the door and currying favor in every way.

Wait for Aunt Yun to return to the backyard. That Mama Yang sneered: "What did you say to them?" ”

Aunt Yun hurriedly smiled: "Mama." What can I say is that I hope the master will be released soon. ”

"Hmph. You have to think about it, your daughter's life is in my hands, if you talk nonsense. I will cut her meat with the thinnest knife and cook it piece by piece, and feed it to you. ”

Aunt Yun only felt a cool breath above her head, and hurriedly begged: "My loyalty to Mama can be learned from heaven and earth, if there is a thunder against the sky." ”

"Okay, as long as you are obedient and obedient, what is it to be Mrs. Shangshu, and good days are ahead." Mama Yang smiled and stretched out her hand to put her arm around Aunt Yun's shoulder: "What are you shaking, poor one, come, let's go to the back room and talk." Aunt Yun trembled, lowered her head and held tears, but she had to follow the grandmother to the house.

Their figures disappeared, revealing a pair of flexible eyes from the corner, it turned out to be a teenage girl, covering her mouth tightly, and slowly stepping back step by step.

Liansheng and Xu Yan returned home, Hongliu had already prepared dinner, and Fangsheng came back and talked to Hongliu in the kitchen.

Leng Nan sat outside, staring at a bone motionless.

"What kind of hysteria do you commit?" Lian Sheng squatted down and looked at the bone, "Isn't this just an ordinary ulna?" Why are you staring so much. ”

"It's an ordinary ulna, but look here......"

He pointed to one place, "What is this?" Liansheng looked at it carefully, "This seems to be a seal." ”

"Tooth marks, to be exact!"

"Huh?" Xu Yan put down the food box with a bang: "Tooth marks!" Cannibalism? ”

Leng Nan waved the bone in his hand: "I was holding this bone, thinking about what kind of posture and mood that person was gnawing on this bone, tearing at the muscles and tendons, and tearing them apart with his teeth, that person's teeth must be white and strong, and they can leave such a tooth mark on the bone, and what he was biting was the cartilage tissue covered with periosteum." In the end, Leng Nan said meaninglessly: "His purpose is not necessarily to eat people, it may just be to enjoy the pleasure of eating." ”

Xu Yan shivered and grinned: "God, what you said is so terrifying, so disgusting, I can't eat at night." ”

"Well, I also think you don't have to eat, you're too plump, Miss Xu." Leng Nan deliberately looked Xu Yan up and down, his eyes that were accustomed to life and death looked at Xu Yan very uncomfortable, and he turned around and carried the food box into the kitchen.

"Xu Yan, we can't eat the food box, the people of Shangshu are two-faced, who knows if they will move their hands and feet."

Liansheng instructed.

Leng Nan got up and put the baby bones aside: "Stupid, that dish didn't move to find me." ”

He also went directly into the kitchen, and then heard Xu Yan shouting: "Oh, have you washed your hands?" ”

Liansheng shook his head and smiled, looking at the ulna.

"Hey, Leng Nan, where did this bone come from?"

"Oh, I went to the city on an errand today, and I met it at the mass grave, and I saw the tooth marks on the bones at a glance, and I thought it was a little interesting and picked it up. There is also half a skull, and the skull is missing. ”

He came out of the kitchen and said, "Don't worry, there is no problem with the dishes." ”

"The skull is missing? Could it be that there is a lama in this capital? ”

"What lama?"

"I've heard that some Tibetan lamas use skulls to make instruments, what is it called?" Liansheng thought for a moment: "Yes, it's called Gabala." ”

"Well, as soon as you say it, I remembered it, I saw that there was such a thing in the book, but it was taken from the skull of a girl or a monk, and I had seen the half of the skull roughly, it should be a teenager. This took the boy's skull and gnawed on the boy's bones, which is a bit strange. ”

"Could it be that there is a cult near the capital? It seems necessary to inform the King that this is a big deal. ”

Liansheng's eyes couldn't help but glance at the ulna that was put aside, thinking that it might belong to a teenager, and he chuckled in his heart, and couldn't bear to look at it again.

After setting up the rice in the hall, Liansheng first picked out a few dishes and a bowl of rice, packed them and put them on a tray and was about to send them to Dark Incense, but she saw the door of Dark Fragrance's room open, and she walked out slowly.

"Girl, I can go."

"You're so badly injured, hurry back and lie down." Liansheng put down the tray and hurried over to help her.

"It's okay, I can really go, I'm going to get moldy all the time lying down, girl, I feel much better, I can't be like this every day, I want to do more."

Liansheng helped Dark Xiang sit down, and when she heard her say to do things, Xu Yan asked on the side: "What are you doing, the imperial doctor said that you don't have a long life......

"Xu Yan!" Lian Sheng shouted loudly, Xu Yan stuck out her tongue and ran into the kitchen.

"Girl, don't complain about Miss Xu, I know that I am afraid that my life is limited, I don't want to be so muddy, seeing that the girl and Miss Xu can go out to do things, I am very envious, and I also want to help the girl, I don't want to wait until the day of death, think about this life, I haven't done anything serious, and when I go underground, Lord Yama asks me what I do, and I'm embarrassed to tell him."

Liansheng thought about it, and what Dark Xiang said was quite right, so he smiled and said, "Then what will you do?" I ......" Dark Fragrance smiled embarrassedly: "What I know is all things that can't be on the stage, what singing, what singing and dancing...... It's okay for me to be a maid next to the girl. ”

"How can I let you be a maid, I want to see where there is a suitable job for you."

At this time, Xu Yan also knew that she had a big mouth just now, so she poked her head out and said, "Teaching Division, isn't the teaching of the Teaching Department very suitable for Miss Dark Fragrance?" Hongliu, are you right? ”

That's right, the Faculty Division, you can teach instrumental music and dance, which is indeed like tailor-made for dark incense.

Hearing this, Dark Xiang hurriedly waved her hand: "How can a person like me go to teach, the Teaching Workshop Division rehearses songs and dances for the nobles." ”

"What nobles are not nobles, you have to have confidence in yourself." Lian Sheng held her hand: "I'll help you find a way tomorrow, but there is one thing, you must not be tired of yourself." (To be continued......)
