Wei Zhongxian's confidant, Huo Weihua, the secretary of the military department, secretly dispatched Yuan Chonghuan, the favorite general of Sun Chengzong, the governor of Ningyuan, and the Liaodong Iron Cavalry, with military orders, and after disappearing for a few months, I don't know where to get an immortal recipe called "Linglu Drink", with a set of complex utensils. Wei Zhongxian immediately sent someone to do so, made a set of steaming utensils made of gold and silver, put in polished rice, and steamed Linglu drink.

No one knew whether the Linglu Drink had any curative effects, because it was the idea of Wei Zhongxian, Huo Weihua and others, and the imperial doctor naturally did not dare to come forward to stop it. In the first few days of taking Linglu Drink, Ming Xizong felt that it tasted sweet, but soon he got tired of drinking it, and he thought it was watery, so he rewarded it to the eunuchs around him to drink, and his illness did not improve. In the end, the Imperial Pharmacy had no choice but to stop the Linglu drink.

Since then, edema appeared on Ming Xizong's body, and the hundred medicines were ineffective. Wei Zhongxian was very dissatisfied with Huo Weihua because of this, and Huo Weihua also panicked. In August, Ming Xizong collapsed in the Qianqing Palace, only twenty-three years old, because there was no child behind him, and the edict was placed by his fifth brother, King Zhu Youzhen, that is, Emperor Chongzhen.

Emperor Chongzhen succeeded to the throne, and the status of Wei Zhongxian and the Hakka clan plummeted. The Hakka family made a request to Emperor Chongzhen, saying that she wanted to leave the palace and return home. Emperor Chongzhen's grace. At the fifth watch on the third day of the ninth month, the palace gate opened, and the Hakka family was dressed in decaying clothes, walked to the coffin of Mingxi Sect parked in the Renzhi Palace, and opened a yellow baggage. A small box inside the baggage contained Ming Xizong's fetal hair, scabs, and teeth that had fallen out of childhood, as well as the nails and shaved hair that had been cut over the years. The Hakka wept and burned them together in front of the spirit, and then died of illness, and Wei Zhongxian, the great eunuch who had done a lot of evil, also chose to commit suicide by hanging himself because he was afraid of the emperor's sanctions.

I have to say that Lady Na is much more incisive than Xiaolou in interpreting history, and directly connected several doubts that Zhang Meng and them had guessed before, including the explosion of Wang Gongchang, the mysterious fairy Fang Linglu drink, and the stories of the people around Ming Xizong, etc., which everyone listened to with relish.

It wasn't until midnight, when the noise came from outside the door, that they came to their senses.

"Shall we test these men in red? What I want to know most now is how Brother Jiu'er, a flesh and blood body, got in! ”

Zhang Meng hesitated, but still decided.

If you don't solve the problem of these red-clothed ghosts, it not only means that they will be in danger at all times, as long as it gets dark, they may be attacked by these red-clothed people.

And their activity time will be greatly reduced, and the desert will get dark very quickly. Sometimes it seems that in the blink of an eye, the red glow in the sky will disappear, and the next second the night will come, and here, once the night appears, it means that those red-clothed ghosts will come out to 'dabble' again.

Gao Jin glanced at Lady Na, but saw that Lady Na didn't say anything.

He had to shake his head at Zhang Meng apologetically, and sat down again when he just wanted to stand up.

"Let's go!"

Zhang Meng's face remained unchanged, and he greeted Xiaolou and the fat man.

The relationship between them and Lady Na now belongs to the kind of neighbors who do not invade each other, and naturally they have no right to ask her to do anything. And the news she told her before was just to repay them for saving their lives.

Now, if Lady Na doesn't plan to take action, then she really gets any clues from those red-clothed ghosts, and she won't tell Lady Na, which Zhang Meng sees very clearly.

"Fatty, let's prepare a few torches first, remember, the more the fire burns, the better! These ghosts are afraid of the light of the torches, and they can also make them afraid when the time comes. ”

Zhang Meng thought for a while and said, since you want to go out to test it, you have to prepare everything so as not to fall into danger when you get it.

"Damn, why is it so cold!"

As soon as the three of them went out of the door, they felt a cold wind blowing, and their whole bodies seemed to be stuffed into the refrigerator. This wind was not at all like the desert evening wind they had encountered before, it was completely similar to the wind blowing from a 10,000-year-old glacier.

The dense red-clothed people wandering the streets, seeing Zhang Meng and them going out, immediately found their target, and turned their heads to stare at them.

Zhang Meng only felt that his scalp exploded all of a sudden, staring at countless white powder faces in the middle of the night, and these people were all dressed in crimson clothes, this feeling would be creepy to anyone who saw it.

Xiao Lou was so frightened that she almost cried, she covered her mouth and dragged Zhang Meng's arm, as if this would make her feel safer.

"Don't panic, these things don't dare to come over, we have torches in our hands!"

Zhang Meng pulled his face, rubbed it vigorously, and then said in a deep voice.

The next moment, those red-clothed men pounced on them like hungry wolves.

"Mom! Didn't you say that they wouldn't come, I'll draw a circle and curse your ancestors. ”

The fat man jumped three feet high in fright, and his ass flew back into the building like a jet, and he didn't know where the torch had gone.

"Let's go!"

Zhang Meng naturally didn't have time to raise the bar with the fat guy at this time, he pulled Xiaolou to the building with all his might, but he didn't pull it for half a day, Xiaolou was so frightened that he froze and didn't take a step.

Zhang Meng was so angry that he threw the torch away, then picked up Xiaolou by the waist, and walked back frantically like smoke on his buttocks.

"You two ......"

The fat man shook his head at the door and looked out of the door, as if he wanted to answer Zhang Meng and them, and when he looked up, he saw a black shadow crashing in.

The fat man was happy when he saw it: "I said you two, this is a love affair or something, I don't object to being a big brother, but it depends on the time, don't kiss me at this time, it's important to solve the problem first!" I'm going to criticize you next time! ”

The fat man grimaced, pointed to the two of them and said in a deep voice.

If there was a mirror at this moment, Zhang Meng would definitely find that his face was as black as Bao Qingtian, he put Xiaolou down, resisted the urge to strangle the fat man, and forcibly suppressed the anger rolling in his body, and said in a deep voice after a while:

"I remember you."

The fat man was probably also shocked by Zhang Meng's murderous aura, and he didn't dare to say anything more.

He ran to the door to take a look, and immediately ran back with a pale face: "Damn, those things are coming this way!" ”

Zhang Meng's face also changed, the torches in the hands of the three of them before did not scare off the group of red-clothed ghosts, which really surprised him, and now he was a little panicked when he saw these things coming around.

"Prepare weapons, Xiaolou, you go and call Lady Na and them, let them come out quickly to see the gate, and then sit there, just wait to die together!"

Zhang Meng hurriedly said, if these fucking things really come in, then where is their hope of survival?
