Chapter 282: Coffin Provenance
Gu Chenghan protected it around and looked around, but he didn't find anything.
The two still didn't believe in evil, and began to look carefully.
Just when the two of them were at a loss, suddenly Zhen Chutian saw a well not far away, "My lord, the well." ”
Gu Chenghan heard Zhen Chutian's voice, looked over, he suddenly thought of something, a smile appeared on his face, he couldn't help shaking his head, and then pulled her to the well.
The two looked inside the well and looked at each other.
"My lord, this echo is too scary." After Zhen Chutian finished speaking, Gu Chenghan found something in the courtyard to cover the well, and those cries disappeared in an instant.
Zhen Chutian shouted at the courtyard wall, "Auntie, we have found the source of the cry, so you don't have to be afraid in the future." ”
The eldest lady heard Zhen Chutian's shout in the house, and followed back.
The crying was gone, only the sound of rain remained, and it seemed much clearer to look around at this time.
Although they now know what the crying is about, according to what the eldest mother said, as long as the people who enter are dead, then there must be something in it that they have not yet discovered.
They searched the yard for a quarter of an hour, but found nothing, and then they were ready to go inside to investigate.
It's just that as soon as the door opened, a person ran out of the house, although this person ran very fast, and he still ran out under their defenselessness, but Gu Chenghan's martial arts were extremely high, and this person was still caught.
This person was pressed in the rain by Gu Chenghan, "If you don't want to die, then obediently say who you are and why are you here?" ”
"I, I'm Zhang San, I'm just curious about who the person who came in just now, who knew that I didn't find anyone when I came in, and the crying began to come from this room, and I hid as soon as I was scared." Zhang San shivered, not only because of the rain but also because of fear.
"You're the one who always reported to the official that there were dead people here?"
"Yes, it's me, who are you, what the hell do you want to do?" Zhang San raised his eyes and looked at Zhen Chutian and Gu Chenghan.
Although it was raining, the moonlight today was quite good, and Gu Chenghan and Zhen Chutian both saw the appearance of this three clearly.
At first glance, this looks like a thief with eyebrows and rat eyes and does not do good deeds.
"From Tiandu Mansion." Gu Chenghan didn't hide it, of course, to make Zhang San afraid.
"What?" Sure enough, Zhang San's frightened body trembled.
"If you don't want to die, just tell me how many times you've been in before, and what do you know here?" I just told Gu Chenghan that Zhang San must know something.
And Zhen Chutian has already judged from Zhang San's body language that he does know, but he doesn't dare to say these things easily, because he himself doesn't know the truth of these things.
Seeing such doubts in his eyes, Zhen Chutian quickly opened his mouth, "You don't care if these things are true or not, you just need to tell us what you know, and we will judge whether it is true or not." ”
Zhen Chutian's words made Zhang San smack his tongue and raise his eyes to look at her, as if to say, how did you know?
"Alright, let's talk."
Zhen Chutian and Gu Chenghan didn't want to waste time here with Zhang San.
Zhang San didn't dare to waste time and began to fall into memories.
In fact, Zhang San, like the eldest mother, is the person who has always lived here, if the eldest mother is a kind-hearted person, then he is the kind of person who does not drill seamlessly, although he does not do anything to rob the house, but he has not done a serious thing.
Since the death of this family, although there are a lot of rumors around, half of them are made up by him, in fact, he is also for himself.
Originally, he wanted to say that this house was a murderous house, so that he could come in and find out if there were any valuable treasures, but this lie was told, and this house really began to have problems.
One day, Zhang San just came in and was about to look for something, followed by a group of people came in, this group of people went directly into the house, Zhang San finally hid, these people went into the backyard, the backyard is not big, and Zhang San has been there many times before, there is nothing at all.
Zhang San couldn't hear any movement for a long time, so he followed him to the backyard and found that they were gone.
Zhang San was dumbfounded, and ran away directly, and in the early morning of the second day, he wanted to come over and have a look, and saw a dead man in the courtyard, so he reported to the official.
After that, he also came in a few times, and later died, the more this house became more and more mysterious, Zhang San didn't dare to come over easily, only when he was sure that someone came in, he would follow in to have a look.
However, Zhang San is quite good at hiding, and he hides in a place that ordinary people can't find.
"What did the people who came before look like, did you see clearly?" Gu Chenghan frowned and looked at Zhang San.
Zhang San sighed, "My lord, they all cover their faces, I can't see anything." ”
In the end, Zhen Chutian asked a few more questions, and saw that Zhang San really didn't know, so he let him go, but also warned him that not a word of the matter here could be revealed.
Saving his life is important, Zhang San doesn't dare to talk nonsense.
After Zhang San left, Zhen Chutian went to the backyard with Gu Chenghan.
This backyard is right behind the house.
There are four rooms, and there is nothing suspicious in them, so they will set the final target in the backyard.
The backyard can't be described as a yard compared to the front yard, it can only be said to be a small patio.
Since Zhang San said that those people entered the backyard, it means that there is a secret passage in the backyard.
The two braved the rain and banged for a while before they found a secret passage.
Gu Chenghan was not very relieved and didn't want Zhen Chutian to go down, but she insisted on going down.
"My lord, according to what Zhang San said, a large number of people came to this place before, it was a long time ago, and now no one has come here for a long time, it must be okay here, it is estimated that it is an abandoned place."
Gu Chenghan naturally knew that what Zhen Chutian said made sense, but he was still worried.
Seeing that Gu Chenghan didn't let go, Zhen Chutian continued seriously: "My lord, don't you think it's safest for me to follow you?" ”
Gu Chenghan was not ready to refute this.
"Okay, then you follow me."
"Yes, sir."
Zhen Chutian saw Gu Chenghan loosen his mouth, so he happily followed him down the dark road.
It was well equipped, and as soon as they entered, they lit candles, and a long hallway appeared in front of them.
Zhen Chutian looked at the corridor, which was dug by hand, and it looked deserted for a year.
Soon the two of them came to the end, and there was a large space inside, but the contents inside were obvious.
Zhen Chutian and Gu Chenghan looked at each other in surprise, "Coffin? ”
Can you imagine what kind of scene it is like when you enter a space and all you see are coffins?
At this time, Zhen Chutian and Gu Chenghan didn't know what to say, so they could only watch all this in amazement.
When they came to their senses, they walked over to the coffins, but there was nothing in them, which reassured them.
Just now, Zhen Chutian thought about it, if there were all corpses in it, what should she do?
"My lord, don't you think this coffin looks familiar?" Zhen Chutian suddenly looked at the coffin and searched in his mind.
After she found the information about these coffins, she looked at Gu Chenghan in surprise.
At this time, Gu Chenghan also thought of it, after all, the two of them had dealt with these coffins before.
"Did you say that Fu Cheng came here to find something?"
"These coffins are the coffins that the old prime minister used to put those gold, silver and jewelry, and there must be a connection between them."
The two of them suddenly looked at the coffin in front of them, but there were not many clues left, and it could be said that they were useless clues, but the rotten strip of cloth attracted Zhen Chutian's attention.
"My lord, I've heard that the only thing that can be used in the capital can only be the clothes of the harem, right?" Although Zhen Chutian doesn't understand female celebrities, Granny Xuan does.
When Granny Xuan was doing blind embroidery in the past, as long as Zhen Chutian was fine, she would be pulled by Granny Xuan to talk about it.
After going back and forth, Zhen Chutian also knew some things.
Gu Chenghan squatted down and looked at the silver thread with Zhen Chutian, and then nodded, "Yes, the Tiandu Mansion handled a case of losing clothes in the harem before, according to what the palace maid of the harem said at that time, such silver thread clothes are as little as 1,000 taels or more than 10,000 taels or 10,000 taels." ”
"Thousand, ten thousand taels?" Zhen Chutian is really going to be convinced, it's just a piece of clothing, is it so expensive?
However, not everyone can wear such clothes, such clothes can only be worn by people with status in the harem, such as the palace maid serving in front of the palace, and can sit at the level of the grandmother, of course, the empress and princess can often wear them.
After listening to Gu Chenghan's words, Zhen Chutian fell into deep thought.
In this way, the scope is large, and it is also possible that the people of the harem sold their clothes for silver.
But now that this clue can be found, Zhen Chutian and Gu Chenghan are already very content, at least now it can be proved that Fu Cheng's death is not so simple, and his death is inextricably linked to the case of the old prime minister before.
"Master Gu, it seems that we have to go through the file." Zhen Chutian frowned and looked at Gu Chenghan.
Gu Chenghan nodded, and the two of them left the secret way.
Knowing that they couldn't go back today, the two returned to the eldest mother's house.
"How's it going?" The eldest lady was very nervous, because they never came out, and the eldest lady did not close the door, so she just waited.
"Auntie, it's the well, it's just the echo of the well, those dead people, maybe they wanted to go in and hide, but they accidentally heard this sound and were scared to death, it's okay here." Zhen Chutian didn't tell the eldest lady too much, after all, it's really okay here.
"Really? It's as simple as that? "The eldest lady still can't believe it, after all, there are a lot of things that happened before.
Zhen Chutian nodded very seriously, and then took the eldest mother's hand, "Auntie, this is Lord Gu from Tiandu Mansion, don't you still believe what he said?" ”
"You, that's Master Gu?" The eldest lady suddenly looked at Gu Chenghan in surprise.
Zhen Chutian instantly pursed his lips and smiled, "My lord, it seems that you have a good reputation." ”
As soon as she finished speaking, the eldest lady came directly to Gu Chenghan and looked her up and down, "My lord, you are really young and promising." ”
"Auntie, do you know the adults of our family?" Seeing the eldest lady like this, Zhen Chutian directly decided that she was a fan of Gu Chenghan, and couldn't help but think about making a joke about Gu Chenghan.
