Chapter 38: The Origin of the Spirit Ruins
After Tonggu returned home, he brought Lingxu to the room, and his expression was serious, and a pair of red eyes stared at Lingxu strangely and said, "Who are you sending to me?" ”
Lingxu pounced on his knees and said, "The girl is clear, the slave is really out of the Killing Pavilion, and it is really just the girl who bought it back." The girl thinks about it, even if the Killing Pavilion arranges, how can she be sure which slave the girl will buy? ”
"In that case, tell me about your background." Tonggu said coldly.
Lingxu lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, and tears slipped out of his eyes like beads. "Girl, the slave maid is the daughter of Ye Cheng, the master of the Thousand Gates, Ye Yao. Thousands of doors flowed into a river of blood overnight, and the hatred of destroying the door was not shared. When the slave brother was only five years old, he was strangled to death. Speaking of this, Lingxu choked up, "The slave's senior brother Shenzang's real name is Ye Zhang, and he is the adopted son of the slave's father. Back then, the senior brother worked hard to rescue the slave, and then we committed ourselves to the Killing Pavilion in order to track down the real murderer. With the help of the secret book left by our father, we quickly gained a firm foothold in the cabinet. We have never forgotten the revenge of destroying the door, and the hard work paid off, and we finally found the clue. Lingxu paused, wiping away snot and tears with his sleeve, "One day, the people who participated in the massacre appeared in the Killing Pavilion. We followed this man all the way and eventually followed him to the Grand Prince's Mansion. ”
"What did you say?" Tonggu clenched his fists, a little excited in his heart.
Lingxu was taken aback by the sudden questioning, but then continued: "After that, the slave maid and the senior brother pretended to be a maidservant and a little maid to try their best to enter the prince's mansion, and the slave and maid followed the eldest princess, and the senior brother worked as a handyman in the outer courtyard. ”
Tong Gu looked at the Lingxu and suddenly lost his expression, so he asked, "You were sold from the Great Prince's Mansion to the slave market?" Why? ”
"Because the slave is too stupid, I believe in the rhetoric of the eldest prince and believe in love. But the eldest prince is such a shrewd person, he knew the identity of the slave on the first day he entered the palace. All the hypocrisy is just trying to abuse a person who has taken revenge on him. Lingxu's body began to tremble, and his eyes were full of hatred.
"Are you saying that the eldest prince was the mastermind of the bloody case back then?" Tongya wondered.
"Yes, who would have thought that when the eldest prince was only eighteen years old, he would slaughter more than 300 people from my thousands of families for his own selfishness." Lingxu gritted his teeth with hatred.
"Why did he slaughter a thousand doors?" Tsuya asked.
Lingxu snorted coldly and said, "For the unwarranted half of the treasure map." The heirloom of my Ye family has been passed down to the gods, and everyone says that it is the dragon vein treasure map left by the former monarch Chi Cube. But in fact, our family heirloom is the Ye family fist cheats created by our Ye family ancestors, which is really a joke. ”
Tonggu sighed in his heart that the veins of this world, and the people who can come together seem to be pulled by an invisible thread. "Then why are you so afraid of Killing Pavilion Elders?"
When Lingxu heard this, his expression became weird, and he said with a smile: "Back then, the eldest prince spent a lot of money to ask the elder who held the girl hostage that day to torture me, and Elder Xie was a master of poison, and the person who tortured me was neither a ghost nor a ghost. Tortured until the eldest prince was satisfied, he sold the slave and maid to the slave market, what the eldest prince didn't know was that Elder Xie's subordinates showed mercy and never killed the slave and maid, so the slave and maid survived by luck. ”
"Then what you said to me in the first place was a lie to me?" Tonggu slapped the table with one hand and asked angrily.
Lingxu knelt forward and grabbed Tonggu's skirt and said, "Girl, the slave has no second heart for you, at first the slave just didn't want to burden the girl before saying that." The girl is the benefactor of the slave, and the slave is willing to swear allegiance to the death. ”
Tonggu picked up the Lingxu with his hand and said, "Do you still want to take revenge now?" ”
Lingxu stared at Tonggu's red eyes, nodded and said, "The slave wants revenge, but the slave doesn't want to burden the girl." If the girl agrees, the slave wants to take revenge and then return to serve the girl. ”
Tonggu pulled Lingxu closer and whispered a few words in Lingxu's ear. Then he slammed the tea cup on the table to the ground and scolded loudly: "You are also worthy of serving by this girl's side, you cheap hoof." Tonggu slapped Lingxu hard, and then dragged Lingxu to the courtyard and said: "From today onwards, you will serve your grandmother, when your grandmother is satisfied, when will it be over." ”
Yu Chuniang, Zhu Tao and Zhu Qing happened to be working in the courtyard, and several people were startled by the girl's appearance, it was the first time they had seen the girl have such a big fire.
Yu Chef Niang was bolder, stepped forward and knelt down and said, "The girl is angry, so spare Lingxu this time." ”
Tonggu's red eyes widened, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Whoever begs for mercy again is guilty of the same crime." Lingxu, you can go to your grandmother's side and receive thirty sticks on your own. I don't want to see you again from today. ”
"Ouch, good sister, hurry up and calm down. It's just a slave and maid, and I don't like to kill it. Why be so angry? Diao Shuhua came uninvited, and her hypocritical tone was the same as in the past.
"My sister is really big-hearted, sister, I will survive for the rest of my life." Tsuya rolled his eyes and turned to walk back into the room.
Diao Shuhua followed behind him and said, "Good sister, where are you?" Sister, I didn't sleep for two days because I was worried, and I don't know who my sister offended. ”
"What is the matter with my sister's visit today?" Tonggu glanced at Diao Shuhua and asked.
"Seeing that it's almost Chinese New Year's Eve, the yard is busy, I just have a powerful girl here, isn't it sent to my sister quickly." Diao Shuhua pointed to a servant girl who followed her.
The maid immediately knelt down and said, "Girl Fu'an, the blessing of the slave maid and maid Sansheng Xiu is fortunate to come and serve the girl." ”
A smile appeared on Tonggu's hideous face, and he said weakly: "It's a person who understands, and it's just a lack of manpower, so stay and follow Chef Yu." ”
"Sister mean to let this girl cook?" Diao Shuhua asked suspiciously.
"Now the house is all in charge of Chef Yu, and I'm used to it. The maidservants in the courtyard all called her Yu Steward, so let this girl follow and call Yu Steward. Tsuya explained.
Diao Shuhua smiled, clapped her hands and said, "Okay, it's decided." ”
Diao Shuhua and Tonggu exchanged a few words and left, and Yu Chef Niang arranged the maid to return to Tonggu.
Yu Chef Niang knelt in front of Tonggu and said, "Girl, the new maid is called Cao Yue, and she has been working with Diao Girl. She seems to be smart and clever, but the slave thinks she is uneasy and kind. ”
Tonggu covered his mouth and smiled and said, "You haven't cultivated in vain for so many years, and even people's hearts will be read." ”
Chef Yu's face was slightly red, and she smiled and said, "No matter how bad it is, it's a thousand-year-old demon, so I know a little bit." ”
Tonggu looked at the slightly darkened cook, and a trace of pity appeared in his heart, and he remembered that the cook's infatuation would eventually face parting. "It's not easy to practice, and you don't have to be too persistent. You come with your ears. ”
Chef Yu got up and approached Tonggu, and Tonggu explained a few words to the cook and then asked the cook to retreat.
The next day, Cao Yue flattered Chef Yu and stuffed silver and sent things. Chef Yu was not polite, and she was all in the bag. After a few days, Cao Yue also spent a lot of money and effort to go out, and finally found an opportunity to invite the cook to drink.
"Steward Yu, thanks to you for the past few days, I have been able to live in this courtyard in peace. This wine is a good wine from my former master, and I specially use it to honor you. Cao Yue smiled all over her face, and poured wine for Chef Yu with a wine jar.
Chef Yu did not refuse, and looked at the good wine gradually poured into the bowl with a greedy look. "Sister, don't be polite, don't worry, no one dares to bully you with me."
"How old is my sister now?" Cao Yue began to change the topic.
"It's the year of Double Ten Peaches and Plums, and it's not as flowery as my sister." Chef Yu said with a sigh.
"Steward Yu is not much like me, and I have passed the age of breaking melons. It's really miserable to think that the dowry hasn't been saved yet. Cao Yue's eyes welled up with tears.
"My sister doesn't have to be humble, with my sister's appearance, it's not a problem to marry a steward, and I don't need a dowry to support her." Chef Yu waved her hand, picked up the wine bowl and took a big sip.
Cao Yue filled the wine and continued: "Yu Zhangshi, you see that the girl is only a golden hairpin, but she already has a lot of wealth in her hands, who is really lucky if she marries her." ”
Chef Yu looked left and right and leaned into Cao Yue's ear and said, "No, I've been to the place where the girl hid the treasure, and it was full of all kinds of treasures, and people were dazzled to see it." ”
Cao Yue continued to pour wine for Yu Chefniang and said, "Yu is in charge, don't you have the courage to take a few pieces?" ”
Chef Yu was drunk, although her skin was dark, she could also see that her cheeks were flushed and her eyes were blurred. "I don't have the guts, but seriously, it's enough to live a few lifetimes. And there's another entrance to that cave, which I only recently discovered, so it's easy to get things into. ”
"Yu Zhangshi, you can't make so much money in your life here, why don't you and I cooperate, you take me to the cave, let's pick a few random things in the cave. Don't worry, I have a way of turning things into cash. And then how about I take you couple to a safe place? Cao Yue recognized that Chef Yu was an insatiable person who was greedy for money, but she lacked some side knocks.
Chef Yu's eyes rolled, and she slapped the table and made up her mind: "Okay, just bet on this, and I'll take you tomorrow." ”
When it was dawn on the second day, Chef Yu got up and tiptoed to meet Cao Yue, who was already waiting outside the hospital. The two of them galloped on their feet, and in an hour they came to a cave outside the city.
"That's it, the girl has a lot of good things hidden in it." Chef Yu pointed to the entrance of the cave and said.
"Yu Zhangshi, then let's go in and have a look." Cao Yue looked at the entrance of the cave greedily, and his mind was completely empty.
Chef Yu took out the fire fold and lit it, and walked along the entrance of the cave. The two of them came to the belly of the cave one after the other, and the cook lit the oil lamp on the wall of the cave, and dozens of large boxes were piled on the ground. Cao Yue had never seen much of the world, and when he saw the box, he pounced, opened the box and grabbed the gold and silver treasures in the box.
"Little Wavehoof, what are you doing?" A familiar voice came from afar.
