Sun Mansion.

It's still late autumn, it's still that gloomy and bleak look, the gate is still mottled, no, to be precise, more than a month has passed, the gate seems to be even more mottled, the paint on it and the dry cracks into pieces, a light touch, it will fall to the ground.

The fallen leaves swirl in the wind, and it is extremely desolate.

The fallen leaves in front of the door were still piled up thickly, and because no one cleaned them, they accumulated layer by layer.

There was a cold autumn rain just the day before yesterday, and this weather is even colder, and the chill seems to be able to penetrate into the bones. As soon as the rain hits the tree, it becomes heavier, and the water seeps in, and it sticks all together, and it has been left untended for a long time, and if you get closer, you will faintly smell a smell of decay.

Now in the alley where Sun's Mansion is located, it can't be described as defeated Xiao Shu, if you really want to choose a precise word - that is disgusting! If it's figurative, it's a garbage heap!

Looking at it, in the alley, a lump of rice fields, its density has reached an outrageous level, almost making people have no place to stand, just like the flies that were killed in the box by the fly medicine in later generations, almost a layer of paving, these grains reincarnation things exude a foul smell, a gust of wind blows, and occasionally people passing by this alley are also hurriedly covering their noses and leaving quickly.

Fortunately, Sun Mansion is in the innermost part of this alley because it covers a large area, so the impact is not very great.

And on the gates of the Sun Mansion, on the walls. Even the two big stone lions at the door have dirt that cannot be hidden, if it is those people who live in the lower classes all year round. You can tell at a glance that it's all urine and dirt. For example, a remote corner is prone to leave such traces when it is hit by human urine all year round.

It stinks!

And that's not all. On the walls of Sun's mansion, there are still many corpses - cats, dogs, and people.

A human corpse hung upside down on the right side of the gate, this corpse was ragged, and it was not the kind of person who had been destroyed, and I think it was a beggar or something like it was in life. The torn parts of the clothes on his body revealed dead white skin. Apparently he had been dead for a long time, and he had an iron chain tied to his feet, and at the end of the chain was a large iron nail, which was nailed into the wall. The skin of his face was already sunken, revealing towering cheekbones, and his eyes turned out to be two holes, and the gouged out eyeballs were tossed aside.

A gust of wind blew. The corpse shook slightly.

There are about a dozen human corpses, and there are dozens of dead cats and dead dogs.

These corpses set off this place very eerie and terrifying, like ghosts!

And even more eerie. It's on the gate. On the two brass knockers the size of sea bowls on the gate, there is a thin line hanging from each of them at this time, and at the end of the thin line, there is a human hand tied to it! The corpse was decomposed, but the human hand was very fresh, the broken place was blurred with flesh and blood, and there were some blood stains dripping below, which had turned purple and brown, the muscles and blood vessels at the severed hand were in a ball, and the fingers were bent, as if even every palm print on it could be seen clearly.

Seeing these two human hands, it seems that you can see a scene, a person's hands were cut off by force, and this person let out a terrible scream.

This kind of gore makes people shudder to think about it.

And that's not all!

On the huge door panels on both sides, there was a piece of nailed to each of them, like the best paper, showing a dry yellowish white.

And if you get closer, you will find that this thing has a face, limbs, and a body, where is a piece of paper? These are clearly two complete human skins! …,

Even the facial features of the human skin face can be seen clearly, as if in life, how cruel is this? He actually stripped off the human skin of a man!

Up and down the Sun Mansion, it was as tragic as hell.

Suddenly, a small door on one side of the door—one of the few things here that was slightly cleaner—creaked, and then it was pushed open.

A young man in his twenties, dressed in shabby black, first poked out his head, looked around a few times, and after making sure that there was no one around, he walked out slowly.

He carried a long bamboo pole in his hand, about three feet long, and at the top of the bamboo pole, there was a sharp blade similar to a knife.

Sun Cai glanced around, and suddenly his eyes were occupied by feces and urine, he secretly scolded for bad luck, and quickly reached out and covered his mouth and nose with his sleeve, although this is also unable to isolate the smell, but it is finally better than nothing.

Looking at such scenes, Sun Cai's heart suddenly swelled with infinite desolation.

Although he is not very old, he is the old man of Sun Mansion, he is the son of Sun Mansion, and he has been working in Sun Mansion since his grandfather's generation. At that time, the old lady of the Sun Mansion was still the prefect of Henan Guide Mansion, and later the son of the old lady of the prefect became a jinshi and became a Beijing official, and the family moved here again, watching the old lady's son step by step from a small Hanlin to the high position of the servant of the criminal department, and Sun Cai also grew up.

When Zhengde was fifty years old, Sun Cai was also nineteen, so his father began to marry his daughter-in-law.

Although he is a subordinate, it is not difficult for Sun Cai to go to his daughter-in-law, on the contrary, as the son of the three generations of the Sun family, one of the most trusted people by the head of the family, and his father is also in charge of the house, there are a lot of daughters in the house, and the little girls who have just been bought into the house are vying to be daughters-in-law, and many of them are a little beautiful.

Sun Cai was almost dazzled.

What he didn't expect was that when he got married, it was the peak of the Sun Mansion, and as soon as he got married, the Sun Mansion collapsed - the old man had an accident, smuggled ordnance, and the East Window incident occurred, and he was demoted to the prefect of Lin'an Mansion in Yunnan. In the eyes of the people of the capital, this is no different from the distribution.

As a result, the Sun family was defeated.

The fall of the Sun family, Sun Cai saw it little by little. When I think about it later, this is also the way it should be.

But he's not just him. In fact, everyone never expected that the Sun family would fall into such a field!

Everything changed after the Decree came.

As one of the subordinates who served the eldest young master Sun Ting. Sun Cai could clearly feel that the young master's heart was very high and his spirit was very high in those two days, and he could often be heard locking himself in the study alone, and then letting out a panicked laugh.

Sun Cai was also shocked.

Because it turns out that since the old master was belittled in Yunnan, these days, all the young masters are extremely excited. Then something bad must have happened -- the first time was to sell a few shops, and everyone's monthly silver was halved, the second time was to sell 8,000 acres of land outside the city, and everyone's monthly silver was reduced by 30% again, and the third time was ......

So this time?

As a result, before the laughter fell, the emperor's decree reached the gate. Many of the people were quite happy, thinking that the master was going to be reinstated. The old housekeeper Sun Fu also put an incense case in a row, used yellow paper, gritted his teeth and took out a lot of candles that he was reluctant to use, but he didn't expect that the holy decree would certainly transfer the master back to the capital. But he also changed the reputation of the eldest young master!

Everyone didn't know how, a few servants went out and went around, and in less than a cup of tea, it was spread all over the house: the eldest young master secretly sent someone to investigate and calculate Wu Yibo, and offered evidence to Jiang Bin, Jiang Bin entered the palace to face the saint, and the saint was furious and ordered to reprimand Wu Yibo, but at the same time, he was not happy that the eldest young master privately investigated the court officials and issued an order to avoid his fame! …,

As soon as the eldest young master heard the news, the whole person almost fainted, and after receiving the holy decree by force, he fell to the ground, and since then he has been unconscious, only relying on medicine to hang himself.

Because of this, the father-in-law who came to the palace to spread the news was very displeased, and said that he wanted to go back and talk about it well, but the old housekeeper endured the heartache and sent a large ingot of silver, which was to avoid the turmoil afterwards.

The young master was dizzy, but there was still the old housekeeper in charge, and there was no chaos.

It's just that everyone only learned later that this was the beginning of the nightmare!

That night, everyone smelled that the smell outside was wrong, and as soon as they opened the door, they saw that there was and urine outside, and it stinked to death. As a result, I didn't expect that this scolding was smashed with bricks outside, and the person was beaten half to death at the moment.

Now, no one dares to go out.

That night, more than a dozen torches were thrown into the house, and the firewood room was set on fire, almost not causing a fire, but fortunately the old housekeeper brought people to put out the fire in time.

Early the next morning, the old housekeeper thought about finding Shuntianfu to find an explanation, because when the fire caught fire last night, the yamen and the guards who were responsible for extinguishing the fire did not come!

As a result, as soon as I went out, I found a corpse lying at the door!

Almost didn't scare the old butler out of his life.

If you look closely, you are even more angry and frightened, it turns out that the corpse is an acquaintance!

That was the eldest young master's scholar, and he was also the son of the Sun family, after the eldest young master fainted yesterday, he went to grab the medicine, but this time, he never came back!

The wound of the corpse is obvious, there is a huge knife mark on the neck, how ruthless this knife is, almost slashing the neck in two!

And on his corpse, two hands were missing.

The old butler soon found his hand and tied it to the knocker of the gate with a rope.

This time, the old butler also fainted!

After being rescued, the old housekeeper anxiously urged them to report to the official.

This official has also reported it.

It's just that an hour later, the person sent to report to the official came back with a foot of and urine, bringing back a bad news!

As soon as Shuntianfu heard that it was Sun's business, he didn't say a word, and the officials at the door immediately came out with a burst of sticks, and they weren't even allowed to enter the door!

The officials of Shuntian Mansion are very eye-catching, and when they do this, it is clear that someone above has spoken, and they don't care about the things of Sun Mansion!

This news made people desperate, and when the old housekeeper heard it, he fainted again.

And Sun Mansion also has no discerning people, and everyone will understand in their hearts that this is the revenge of Wu Yibo's Mansion! Are you not a reckoner? Okay, now it's your turn to take revenge on you!

This thought makes people think about it and be full of despair!

Everyone listens to reviews and watches big dramas in the teahouse on weekdays. Other officials don't know, can Wu Yibo still not know? It's all played in the play!

Wu Yibo, who is that? The super count of the national dynasty, the frontier general of the second grade. Wu Yi's army is the strongest army of our Ming Dynasty, and it can't be defeated! Wu Yi Boduo was appreciated by the emperor, and the emperor was recommended as a famous general of the country in the court. Ancient Commanders! The father-in-law is also a dignified soldier in the army, and his strength is intertwined in the court!

What are we?

Although the master has been recalled to Beijing, he is just a small imperial history, can he compare with others? The eldest young master has made a name for himself again, and seeing that the Sun family has no hope of getting up!

When the master was the servant of the criminal department, we were all just people, but now can we do it?

Not to mention, the Shuntian Mansion that is clearly displayed now is all partial gang!

From that day on, nightmares struck. …,

A few days afterward. The surroundings of Sun's mansion are almost surrounded by feces and urine, and they can't go out at all, as long as they go out, they come back with a foot of. At first, it was the front door, and later, there were two other side doors at the back door, which were also sealed by feces and urine!

As for other people? Those who poured and urine made money. The people around me don't have an opinion at all!

Several doors were sealed, and there was really no way to go out, so I had to temporarily chisel a small door on the wall to come out, but without a cup of tea, it was sealed by feces and urine again.

And so for a few days. The people in the house just can't go out at all, but fortunately, the old housekeeper is in ruin, and he buys a huge amount of vegetables and vegetables as soon as he buys them, so the family head is enough to manage things like cabbage, and he can't starve to death for a while. There is also a well at home, and drinking water is also convenient.

But this is equivalent to the mansion being surrounded, such a circle, it is no problem to eat and drink every day, but it is difficult to Lazar!

People in Beijing don't have their own toilets, especially these big families, they all put the toilet in the designated place, and naturally someone will come over.

But there is such a thing in the Sun family, who would dare to come over? It's too late to avoid it! At first, the Sun family still put the toilet outside the door, but it didn't take long to find that the toilets full of feces and urine had been kicked over—there was more feces and urine at the door.

In the end, there is really no way, the old steward has spoken, let's just pour the feces and urine to the door! Anyway, sooner or later, you have to let others fall, so it's better to come by yourself.

It's just that living in such a stinky environment is not something that anyone can bear.

I have to cover my nose when I sleep at night, and when I eat, whatever I eat tastes like chewing wax, and the smell of feces and urine is used to accompany my meal, which is unprecedented. And people have been in this environment for a long time, and there are two words all over their bodies: uncomfortable!

After a few days, people are sick and wilted, and as the days go by, two people will be sick, and they will talk all day long, like a ghost, which makes people tremble in their hearts.

The old steward Sun Fu still didn't believe in evil, and sent people to Shuntianfu twice, but after the two unlucky ghosts who were forced to go out helplessly came back with a body of feces and urine, they also brought back bad news.

No, perhaps it should be said that it is more congesting news.

After being beaten out twice, the third family sent out was also a little smarter, and before leaving, he asked the old steward for some silver, saying that if he didn't have money, he couldn't do anything, even if he killed him, he wouldn't be out of this door! The old steward thought about it, and in desperation, he had to endure the pain of cutting flesh and gave him a small ingot of silver, or there was money to make the ghost grind, but after this Ding stuffed the silver, the well-informed officials of Shuntian Mansion really revealed a little news to him.

said that the big men above had already passed the word: Sun Ting had already committed a taboo by raising people and investigating the court members privately, if anyone did something like him, which of these ministers didn't have a bit of a handle? If they are all caught and sent to Jinyiwei, how can they pay it back? So the above will say, Wu Yibofu will definitely retaliate, let's see, as long as it doesn't violate the royal law, then it must not be managed!

Is it against the law to pour and urine on your door? Didn't commit it, did you? This is not under the control of our Shuntian Mansion! Such a short matter of parents, you have to go to the local security for mediation!

The family was in a hurry, saying that it was a fatality!

The official was happy, saying that we knew that someone had died, but aren't we investigating it now? But in such a big Beijing city, when will there be dozens of murders? Now the life lawsuit squeezed by the famous master of Shuntian Mansion is afraid that it will have to be a zhang high. If it's your case's turn, wait a few years! …,

The guy almost cried!

As a result, I returned home in a trance, and I hadn't entered the alley yet. I saw a group of men in black dragging a corpse and nailing it to the courtyard wall! This Ding was also phlegm-lost, and even had the courage to go up and scold, but the gang of men in black stopped and beat them violently. Half of his life was gone, and one of his arms was broken. If it weren't for broad daylight, maybe this life would be gone!

After the news spread, people's hearts were completely dispersed, and many people in the palace had different thoughts in their hearts.

They are not disloyal, in fact, those who can stay in the Sun Mansion at this time can be regarded as sharing the weal and woe with the Sun Mansion. The blessings and misfortunes are basically the sons of the Sun family for several generations, such as Sun Cai.

But there are limits to loyalty.

Looking at the revenge of Wu Yibo's mansion, this kind of posture is so ruthless, it is obvious that everyone is going to die for life! It's crazy if you don't die!

Everyone can see that staying in the Sun Mansion is a dead end! And now Wu Yibo's Mansion is just doing these tricks. What if one day you change your mind and want to kill someone? God, Wu Yibo has hundreds of thousands of soldiers under him, but they are vegetarians?

When the threat of death hangs over their heads like a sword of Damocles, how many people can remember what loyalty is?

So it was five days ago. Taking advantage of the dark night and high wind, unattended, the two subordinates secretly climbed over the wall and left, of course, the two of them did not go in vain, before leaving, taking advantage of the lack of manpower in the house, they sneaked into the room of the eldest young master Sun Ting and stole a small cabinet of yellow rosewood - that thing is old, several times the eldest young master wanted to send someone to be the old steward to stop it, if this thing is taken out and sold, how can it cost three or five hundred taels of silver!

Early the next morning, after the incident was discovered, Sun Fu was furious, made everyone anxious, and reprimanded him fiercely.

As a result, in the evening of the same day, four hands were thrown in the gate, fresh, freshly chopped human hands!

A little girl passing by was stunned on the spot.

Soon, the family members recognized that these four hands were the two who had escaped—one of them was working in the kitchen, and his right hand had been burned by a charcoal fire with a scar the size of a copper coin, which was easy to recognize!

This time, no one dared to run anymore.

Those people under Liu Liangchen inadvertently did Steward Sun a great favor, otherwise, they were afraid that the people in Sun's Mansion would soon escape.

Sun Cai shook his head, shook these mixed emotions out of his head, and hurriedly waved the knife on the bamboo pole to cut off the corpses of those dead cats and dogs.

If the smell of feces and urine is bearable, then it makes people shudder when you can see the corpses hanging on the wall at a glance.

So every day the house has to send someone out to clean these corpses, and after a long time, they have also figured out the pattern, as long as it is cleaned today, it will not hang up again for a day.

Of course, no one wants to risk going out, and there is no way, the old steward has to use the oldest way - by lot!

Today, it's Sun Cai's turn to come out.

It took half an hour for Sun Cai to get all the dead cats and rotten dogs off the wall, and those men in black nailed them too tightly, and he couldn't do anything.

I'm already tired and sweating profusely.

Sun Cai looked at the fruits of his labor, nodded with satisfaction, wiped his sweat, and at this time, he suddenly saw a few sweaters in black clothes standing at the mouth of the alley, looking at himself coldly.

Sun Cai was shocked, hurriedly smeared oil on the soles of his feet, opened the small door, and rushed in. …,

Inside the door, the old steward Sun Fu was standing there like a wooden stake, with a gloomy face, and behind him, the only remaining servants of the Sun family were standing in a row, with a blank face.

Seeing Sun Cai coming in and quickly plugging in the latch, Sun Fu asked with a calm face, "It's all cleaned up?" ”

"It's clean, it's clean." Out of inertia, the majesty of the old steward is still very heavy, Sun Cai hurriedly responded, because of nervousness and fear, he gasped heavily, and just wanted to say, 'There is another person outside', but he didn't breathe evenly, and the words didn't come out.

Over there, Sun Fu had already turned around and said: "Look at your appearance, don't die begging for nothing now, whoever wants to leave, I won't stop you, think about the fate of Sun Ergua and Sun Sangua, don't forget the past, and the future generations can chase it!" Hide in the house, you can still live in peace, if you slip away quietly, don't blame me for not reminding you! ”

He is obviously also well versed in the way of grace and power, and after a fierce reprimand, his face softened a little, and said: "Don't be depressed, what I said is ugly, but every sentence is reasonable!" Our difficult days, it's just a while, the emperor's decree is already on the way, our lord will go back to Beijing, after returning to Beijing, who will dare to bully us? ”

When he said this, he really mobilized the emotions of the people below, and he was still a little energetic.

Sun Fu nodded with satisfaction, and said, "I'll tell you......"

Before the words fell, a loud roar suddenly came from outside, and then, a dozen or so fist-sized spheres were thrown in. Before everyone could see what the sphere looked like, they could only vaguely see that the surface seemed to be stained with a lot of white powder, and then the next moment, these things were on fire, turning into fireballs in the air.

The fireball fell to the ground in an instant, and on the blue brick ground, a flame ignited in an instant!

Sun Cai only said a word at this time: "Steward, be careful, their people are coming out again!" ”

His eyes were straight, and he said in his heart, what kind of rare thing is this, can it still be burned when it touches a brick?

Fortunately, Sun Fu has also experienced many times that people have been thrown into such fire-burning things, Sun Fu's eyes widened, his sleeves were flicked, and he shouted: "Quickly put out the fire!" ”

Everyone worked together, some carried water, some carried buckets, and after a long sound, the fire was extinguished!

Everyone was black, just like those imported Kunlun slaves, and the clothes on their bodies were also burned.

And a gatehouse was also burned to a black rubble!

From beginning to end, no one from Shuntianfu was seen alive.

When the last flame was extinguished, everyone was so tired that they sat down on the ground to rest.

Sun Fu is old, and he was running and shouting just now, jumping up and down, and he was the most tired, and he was sitting on the ground gasping for breath at this time.

There was frustration and despair in his eyes that couldn't be concealed, and even Sun Cai didn't have time to blame, he just let out a long breath, his face became resolute, and he stood up and walked towards the courtyard where the old lady lived.

Soon, the west courtyard where the lady lived was close in front of me.

This place is deep in the inner side of the compound, and the smell of feces and urine in the distance is much lighter here, which is now the best place in the house, and under the arrangement of the old housekeeper, the extremely young master, the little lady and the eldest young master who is recuperating from his injuries have all moved into the west courtyard to live.

On the west side of the courtyard wall, is the mansion of Liang Yushi, who has been Zhishi, the scale of the west cross courtyard is not small, there are three before and after, plus the left and right wings, there are more than 20 houses, just a little people, can not live at all, there were some people who want to make up their minds to move in to live, so that Sun Fu, who has a very good concept of up and down, gave a stern refusal, and reprimanded him fiercely, so that he could be regarded as having no crooked thoughts.

The courtyard on the west side is extremely elegant, around the yard, and on the side of the road outside, hundreds of maple trees are planted.

At this time in late autumn, at a glance, it is a brilliant red like the sunset on the horizon! (To be continued)
