Fallen Leaves Return to the Sycamore Chapter 28 The Woman in Red

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

"City Lord, it's getting late, what's the matter now...... "It's the south wind knocking on the door.

Southerly? Xun Liang's buttoned fingers gradually put down, and the moment he pushed the door open, Xun Liang didn't feel a trace of murderous aura.

What went wrong?

Su Qu's brows furrowed like a dragonfly, he looked at Zhang's mother on the ground, and then looked at the south wind pushing the door in, and his heart was mixed.

Nanfeng also looked at Zhang's mother on the ground, then looked at Su Qu's eyes, and asked suspiciously, "City Lord, what's wrong?" ”

Su Qu shook his head, looked at Xun Liang and said, "Mr. Xun, thank you." He conveyed a message to Xun Liang with his eyes, hoping that Xun Liang could take this Zhang's mother to Qi'anxuan to live temporarily after they left, he was worried that Zhang's mother would suddenly die in the next few days.

They also need more evidence, these things should not be known by a third person except for Zhang's mother and that person.

Xun Liang looked at Su Qu, lowered his eyes, and nodded.

"City Lord, it's going to rain outside." Nanfeng looked at Zhang's mother on the ground.

Zhang's mother didn't look up, supporting her body with her hands and looking very hard.

"Let's go, Southwind." Su Qu flicked his sleeves, his face regained his calm, and he walked straight out of this room, stood on the railing, and looked at the bottom of Manxiang Building, "Since it's going to rain, let's go back early." ”

In the center, there is a round platform, with a red veil hanging between the two places, which looks flashy and gorgeous.

In the center of the stage was a chair, which was exquisitely made, like a girl's skirt blooming slightly, and the edge of the chair was surrounded by a circle of jewels made of flowers.

Look at each floor again, beautiful, but impetuous. But since it's a land of fireworks, what about being impetuous?

Rows of candles illuminate the whole building.

Nanfeng stood behind Su Qu, and only Xun Liang and Zhang's mother were left in the house.

"Mother Zhang, after today, you will go to Qi'an Xuan with me." Xun Liang looked at Zhang's mother and said.

Mother Zhang raised her head slowly, her face was as white as powder: "What are you going to do there?" ”

"You also said that person won't let you go, if you are willing to go to Qi'an Xuan to stay for a few days, we can protect you, if you don't go, maybe you will die here today." Xun Liang spoke coldly.

Whether to go or not, whether she wants to live or not is up to her, if she doesn't care about her life, even if she wants to protect it, she can't do it.

Mother Zhang got up tremblingly and held the table with one hand: "Mr. Xun...... That's what the city lord of Su called just now......"

Xun Liang looked at her: "What do you want to say?" ”

"I won't go to Qi'an Xuan, and Mr. Xun will thank you for me like the Lord of Su City. What I said to you just now is true, please Mr. Xun must assist the City Lord of Su so that Nanfeng can be punished accordingly...... "Mother Zhang said.

"Mother Zhang, what did you really say...... Is the sentence true? She said it well, it seems that this story is very compact, and I can't find a flaw, but if I think about it carefully, it is still a little doubtful.

She said that before Nanfeng accompanied Xu Qi'an to Manxianglou to see her, he came here in advance and gave her a pack of medicine and asked her to put it in Xu Qi'an's tea, saying that it was specially prepared. But if Nanfeng gave her medicine, it could only be a small packet, and a normal person's small packet of medicinal powder would definitely be imported into the tea, and besides, she prepared the tea in advance, so it was impossible that she didn't have time to throw away the paper wrapped in the medicinal powder, and left it by her side for so long?

Either she was lying from beginning to end, or she concealed that she was also an accomplice who helped Nanfeng, and they all wanted Xu Qi'an to die, but Xu Qi'an's relationship with the two of them was so good that it was impossible to doubt them, and she drank the glass of water trustingly, which led to hallucinations.

Of course it's true, isn't it...... Does Mr. Xun still suspect that I want to harm Xiao An?! Xiao An, I have always regarded her as my daughter! Zhang's mother was suddenly a little excited, and her voice seemed to be torn.

"Mother Zhang, don't get excited, I didn't say I wanted to doubt you."

Zhang's mother sneered a few times.

"But even if I panic, I don't say it, none of you know."

"Xu Qi'an, it was Nanfeng who killed you together." Xun Liang blurted out.

Zhang's mother was stunned, hooked the corners of her lips, and did not speak.

It's really amazing, worthy of Mr. Xun, I can't hide anything from you.

"You should cooperate with each other inside and outside, and you cooperate really well."

"I don't understand what you're talking about." Zhang's mother is still dying.

"You want to protect yourself, but Nanfeng wants to kill you." Xun Liang said again.

"No, it wasn't him just now, it was that person...... Mother Zhang shook her head, as if she had admitted what Xun Liang said.

"Who is it?" Xun Liang asked again.

Xun Liang felt that he could ask for another result, and he had already set up a protective shield on Zhang's mother, and there would be nothing wrong with him.

Zhang's mother shook her head: "Mr. Xun, let's go." Zhang's mother sat back on the stool.

Xun Liang was helpless, so he opened the door and left, and before leaving, he suddenly saw a painting hanging on one of the walls of the house, and left without thinking much about it.

As soon as the light floated in from outside the house, as the door was closed again, the light was blocked outside the door again, Zhang's mother sighed, her eyes looked like a painting in the room, it was a painting of a woman in red, and the person in the painting was holding a red plum in her hand, lying in the snow. looks charming and charming, but feels that there is a murderous intent hidden in his eyes.

Mother Zhang looked at it, and couldn't help but feel desolate in her heart.

"Are you going to kill me?" Zhang's mother said to the woman in the painting.

The woman in the painting looked at her quietly with those stunning eyes.

"You can take my life at any time, but if I die, I will drag the south wind to hell together!" Zhang's mother's voice seemed to be roaring, she walked to the painting, pointed to the woman in the painting, and suddenly laughed loudly, "For so many years, you have been monitoring me all the time, hahahahahahaha......ha

"Whoosh-" A red silk thread flew out of the painting like an arrow from the string, wrapping straight around Zhang's mother's neck, getting tighter and tighter.

Zhang's mother's eyeballs bulged out, she made a hoarse sound uncomfortably, fell to the ground with a thud, and turned back and forth in pain.

The woman in the painting walked out slowly, surrounded by a few wisps of red smoke, and still holding the delicate plum blossoms in her hands.

She looked at Mother Zhang on the ground with disdain, raised the plum blossom in her hand and sniffed it on the tip of her nose a few times.

"Die or not...... You can't go to hell...... You don't mean it......" The woman in red laughed happily, "Hehe......"

Zhang's mother looked at her deadly, and finally the red thread cut through her neck, and the woman in red looked at her corpse and threw a plum blossom in her hand on her body, and Zhang's mother's body disappeared.

The woman in red walked back to the painting slowly, and the smell of blood left in the room added another strange color to the place.

The whole Manxiang Building was silent.

It's just late at night.

................................................

Outside the Manxiang Building.

"Mr. Xun, where is Mother Zhang?" Su Qu looked behind Xun Liang and didn't see Zhang's mother.

"She didn't want to, she had to stay here." Xun Liang got into the carriage.

The group left the Manxiang Building and went in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion.

The other side.

Bai Taoli followed Xueye for I don't know how long, and she was already tired and wanted to find a place to sit down and rest.

"Snow night, why did you bring me so quickly when you came, and so slow when you returned, didn't you use the spiritual power when you came?" Bai Taoli stopped and stopped the snowy night.

Xueye stopped and looked back at Bai Taoli: "Do you want to ask why I took you back without spiritual power, but walked back on foot?" ”

Bai Taoli nodded.

"Because I don't want to use spiritual power right now," Snow Night replied, then turned and walked forward, "Hold on a little longer, it's almost there." ”

In fact, Xue Ye just wanted to spend a little more time with her, and it was indeed a little tiring to walk like this, but I was also happy in my heart.

Bai Taoli looked at the darkness around him, and sped up his pace to keep up with the snowy night.

"It's dark."

"Scared? Do you want me to pull you? ”

"Don't be afraid, I'm just saying it's dark." Bai Taoli was a little annoyed in her heart, she didn't want to be moody on this snowy night, and she was a little self-inflicted?

Xue Ye slightly hooked the corners of her lips, and regardless of Bai Taoli, she directly took Bai Taoli's hand: "Let's go, little girl." ”

Bai Taoli panicked in her heart, no.

“…… Thank you, but I can pull your sleeve......" Bai Taoli said, men and women don't kiss, it's not good to hold hands directly, although it doesn't mean that......

Thinking like this, he withdrew his hand from Xue Ye's hand and pulled Xue Ye's sleeve.

Xue Ye didn't speak, but put down his slightly hooked fingers, just pull up his sleeves.

Master also held hands, but Master is Master, one day as a teacher and a father for life...... Therefore, Master is different from other men, and holding hands is just Master's love for me. Bai Taoli thought that this must be right.

I can't help but feel that I still understand the relationship between men and women.

The two walked all the way, and almost every household put out the candles and fell asleep.

When he was about to arrive at the City Lord's Mansion, Bai Taoli saw Xun Liang and Wen Yan standing at the door, talking to Su Qu and the others.

Instead of shouting "Master," she walked over, trying to sneak in, preferably not to be discovered.

"Peach and Plum." Xun Liang saw Bai Taoli at a glance, and when he looked at it again, there was Xue Ye standing next to her, and he couldn't help frowning.

"Master......"

"Mr. Xun," Xue Ye said with a smile, "Today's Jade Dragon Festival, I took the white girl to watch the fireworks, presumably Mr. Xun won't mind." ”

Xun Liang glanced at him and said, "Taoli, come here." ”

Bai Taoli obediently walked to Xun Liang's side.

"Get in."

Su Qu and the others looked at the snowy night, not knowing what was going on.

"Master......" Bai Taoli saw that Xun Liang seemed to be a little angry, so he entered the City Lord's Mansion and went to find the wood ghost and Xu Qi'an.

"Mr. Xun, who is this?" Su Qu looked at Xue Ye and asked.

"Lord Sioux, on a snowy night." Xue Ye replied with a smile.
