In the front hall, the lights are bright, and the darkness outside the house seems to be two worlds.

Mrs. Hu reclined on the long pear blossom wood chair in the middle of the hall, closed her eyes and rested, and played with a bead chain of unknown material in her hand. The eldest son of the old lady, the only heir of the Hu Mansion, Master Hu, and the eldest daughter-in-law sat on the chair beside her, looking peaceful, and they didn't seem to be surprised by the strange events of the previous days. The two rows of Huanghuali tables and chairs under the luxuriously decorated table were empty for the first two tables, but the eldest young master sat behind. It is said that the eldest young master has just returned from Yangzhou, and he is worried, but on the whole he seems to be quite calm. A masked man in white sat opposite the young master, listening carefully to the sound of rain outside the window, tasting a good Biluochun, looking thoughtful. In stark contrast to this, the maids and servants around him stood with nervous faces and shrunken.

At this time, except for the sound of rain outside the window, it was eerily quiet.

The young lady Lancer walked into the hall slowly and saluted, and Cui'er followed closely and saluted, standing behind her, Wan'er held the baby girl, but she owed it.

After a long while, Old Lady Hu slowly opened her mouth, her eyes did not open, she only said without any tone: "Sit down!" ”

Only then did Lan Thaning cautiously walk to the eldest young master and take a seat, while the maid stood behind her.

After everyone sat down, Master Hu spoke: "Yan Shi, Se Ning, this is the 'World Immortal' Bai Dao Chief." ”

The man in white got up and hugged his fists, and the eldest young master Hu Yanshi and his wife also got up and bowed back.

The man in white shifted his gaze to the baby girl, and said in a soliciting tone: "Young Master, can you bring the young lady here for Poor Dao to see?" ”

The young master did not hesitate, nodded slightly, and motioned for Wan'er to come over.

Wan'er carefully handed the baby girl away, and retracted her hand tremblingly.

The baby girl is white and lovely, as crystal as a snow lotus in the Tianshan Mountains, as pure as a snow-colored magnolia, and as elegant as a snow-soft jasmine. Two red clouds floated on his face, as bright as a red lotus and as hazy as a mist.

And her...... It's so similar......

The man in white looked at this well-behaved face quietly, was slightly stunned, and hurriedly asked, "What was abnormal when I was born?" ”

Cui'er bowed and hurriedly replied: "Except for the normal long cry when Miss was born, there is no normal crying. ”

Wan'er hurriedly interjected: "The sky is slightly red, gradually deepening, light red, crimson, crimson, crimson...... Resemble...... Like blood that flows and curdles...... It's getting darker...... It's so ...... It's horrible......"

Cui'er glared at Wan'er fiercely and motioned for her to shut up, before she said, "Then more and more crows gathered in the courtyard......" She saw the old man nodding and continued, "The crows fell one by one, and stood quietly, a large area of black pressure, and they couldn't get rid of it...... Suddenly a bolt of lightning tore through the sky, followed by a thunderclap. There were several lightning bolts in the distance, and the thunder roared endlessly, and the lightning became tighter and tighter, and the thunder became denser and denser, killing many crows, but more flew from all sides and stopped on the gloomy corpse. After that, there was heavy rain, thunder and lightning, and the crow's eyes were miserable and gloomy in the rain, which was extremely terrifying, but he still did not leave. It rained for ten days before it was a little lighter, and the crows were starving to death before they dared to ask someone to clean them up. She tried her best to use the most terrifying words she could think of, lowered her voice and said it with emotion, glanced at the reaction of the man in white, and then retreated.

No matter how frightening her words were, no one in the room seemed to be shocked except for a few cowering people. Outside, a cloudy wind mixed with rain stars blew in. The light veils danced, the lights and candles went out, and the vision suddenly darkened, adding a little weird atmosphere to the room. At this time, it was dusk, but it was rainy for days, and there was no sunlight at all, so the house was lit up. The little maid hurried to close the door, and the maid hurriedly lit the lamp, and the room was bright again.

The man in white frowned slightly, and asked, "Young lady, how is Ling Yan's condition recently?" ”

Lan Se Ning raised her head slightly, suppressed the fear in her heart, and said, "Dao Chief, the concubine's mother's family is also a scholarly family, and she should be well-informed, but she has never encountered such a strange thing. This baby ...... After birth, he did not take in a drop of water (all of it was spit out), but his face was still ruddy. She began to cry to the sound of the rain, and her voice was heavy, as if she was suppressed. After a few more days, I stopped sobbing, just lay down and let the tears flow. I finally coaxed me to sleep, and I always cried in my dreams. The strangest thing is—" The man in white looked at her with encouraging eyes, she paused, took a deep breath, and said, "Her tears ...... It's reddish and it's light, but it's still ......." She stopped, reluctant to say the words "scary", after all, this was her daughter.

"Young lady doesn't need to say much, Poor Dao understands your feelings. In the end, Poor Dao wanted to ask the master a small question, which was offended. After speaking, he leaned over and whispered a few words in Master Hu's ear, and even the ladies next to him couldn't really hear it.

Before the old man could answer, Lan Se Ning ignored his reserve, and suddenly fell down in front of the man in white with a cry, and said, "Dao Chief, please save my daughter!" ”

This is completely in the request of sincere maternal love, which made the man in white stunned, and was about to help her up, but someone had already taken the lead.

The man in white saw a green shadow flashing, it was the young master Hu Yanshi, who had been silent for a long time. He thoughtfully picked Lan Se Ning up, whispered a word in her ear, and she calmed down, but her expression couldn't hide her panic.

This Hu Yanshi seems to be gentle and considerate, but Fang Cai must have said something coercive to calm her down temporarily. What's even more strange is that he didn't seem to have rushed back from Yangzhou, but rather like he was doing business while touring the mountains and rivers, and then came back leisurely.

For a while, the man in white couldn't see through him, so he had to say: "The young lady doesn't have to be polite, she should do her best." But can you let the poor Dao stay for a while, while observing-" I wanted to say that the people in the house were busy changing their words, "celestial phenomena." ”

In fact, after Fang Cai's observation, the man in white already felt that the atmosphere of this family was very strange, and it was not everyone in the family who appeared here, so he still needed to sort out his thoughts and observe more.

"Lao Mo, find a few people to tidy up the guest rooms in the West Wing, and ask the Taoist to stay in." The old lady who finally opened her eyes ordered the housekeeper, but she still did not stop playing with the beads in her hand.

"Tonight, a banquet will be held in the hall to catch the wind for the Taoist chief and the dog, and I hope that the Taoist will appreciate the light." Master Hu said.

"Thank you first." The man in white saluted again, I don't know who else I will see at tonight's banquet?

"Dao Chief—" Lan Se Ning couldn't help but speak again, but received another warning look from her husband, so she had to shut up.

The man in white, who wanted to say, "Madame, but it's okay to say", held back, he felt that she must know something, but he still looked for another opportunity.

"Cerning, you're tired of taking care of the child. Yan Shi, hurry up and accompany her to rest early! The eldest lady, who had been silent, saw that the atmosphere was not right, and played a round.

Hu Yanshi didn't answer, and directly hugged Lan Cering and prepared to leave.

"Se Ning retreated." Lan Se Ning turned his head to leave, and turned to look at the man in white, it was an indescribable look, containing too much.

Looking at their departing backs, the man in white was thoughtful.

"Bai Dao Chief, let's rest early." Master Hu interrupted his thoughts.

"The poor road also left first." After another salute, the man in white also left the scene with a small guy who led the way, and gradually walked away.

The three elders left behind didn't know what they were talking about, their voices seemed to be filled with moisture, and the people in white with excellent ears couldn't really hear them.
