020 Haunted?
If there was any extra words, Lu Ziqi didn't continue to ask, the two of them just lay on their bunks to rest, and when Su Qin woke up again, Lu Ziqi on the side had already woken up, still lying on his back, one foot still dangling on the other, quite good at entertaining himself.
"Awake?"
"Hmm." Su Qin answered, sat up and drew the curtain, it was actually dark, and he walked for almost a whole day. "Haven't you arrived yet?"
"It should be soon." Lu Ziqi also stuck out his head, "Look, isn't this coming." ”
Su Qin also followed and looked over, and there were indeed three big characters written on the high archway in front of him, "Qingtian Town".
The carriage drove in.
It's already night, Qingtian Town is very quiet, there are low houses on both sides, occasionally there are only one or two lanterns hanging in front of the door, the road is narrow and long, like Lu Ziqi's big carriage, just enough to accommodate it, fortunately it is at night otherwise the road has to be blocked.
The road is paved with bluestone bricks, and tenacious moss can be seen under the moonlight, which has the taste of a small town in Suzhou.
I walked for a while, and when I reached the east of Qingtian Town, I saw a huge Zhuangzi in sight. It is also similar to the overall style of Qingtian Town, the house is not high, but the area is quite large, and it can be seen that it is a large family.
It's just that Su Qin frowned slightly, the walls of Zhuangzi were covered with white curtains, and even the gate of Zhuangzi was hung with white lanterns, which were a little gloomy in the thin moonlight, "Their family is doing a funeral?" ”
"His only daughter died a while ago, and my father came over for a trip, but he was buried after the first seven days of time. These things have not been removed, probably because they are reluctant, after all, they are the only daughter in the family, and they hurt. ”
"It's a pity." Su Qin sighed, got out of the carriage, and the servant led the carriage aside, took off the carriage rope and tied the horse to the tree. Su Qin noticed that there was another horse on the side, covered in dust, so tired that he was still panting, as if he had just run here to rest.
It seems that this Zhuangzi is not only her and Lu Ziqi's two guests.
knocked on the door, and when they came to open the door, they heard that it was the name of the young master of the Lu family, and immediately welcomed them in.
Not to mention, the atmosphere inside this village is even more gloomy than outside, and all the white lanterns are hung at night, and the thin candlelight reflects the ground.
The servant led the way, and Lu Ziqi rubbed in front of Su Qin, "This Zhuangzi, how is it like a ghost house, it's a little scary." ”
"Are you afraid of ghosts?"
"How is it possible, how can there be anything in this world that Young Master Ben is afraid of." Lu Ziqi pretended to pat his chest, but his neck shrunk, "But you say, those evil things that their family said will really be related to haunting." ”
"Is it haunted, just ask if it's okay when you get to the place." Su Qin casually dismissed a sentence and opened his mouth, "By the way, what is the name of this Zhuangzi master?" ”
"Tao Hong, make a fortune as a brocade. Listening to my father, Uncle Hong was bent on making money when he was young and didn't care about the family, so the Tao family was thin, and Uncle Hong also had a daughter like Tao Shuangshuang when he was a little older. It's a pity, the white-haired person sends the black-haired person. ”
Lu Ziqi shrugged his shoulders, estimating that it was also because of this reason that his father had urged him to get married more tightly in the past few days, otherwise how could he hurry away as soon as he found an opportunity.
Saying that, they also arrived at the front of the main hall, Tao Hong and Mrs. Tao were sitting in the hall, Lu Ziqi walked in, and the two of them stood up and greeted them, "Nephew Lu, it's really rare, I thought they heard it when I reported it, but I didn't expect you to come to Qingtian Town." ”
Tao Hong is a little old and looks quite strong, but his voice is a little sad, not as full of anger as it seems, it seems that the pain of losing his daughter in middle age has not yet recovered.
Mrs. Tao on the side was too, her eyes were red and she was afraid that she had just cried, and her voice was hoarse, but she still held up a smile, "Yes, I remember that the last time I saw Nephew Lu, it must have been several years, this time is so high, time flies so fast." ”
"The little nephew has seen Uncle Hong and aunt." When Lu Ziqi came to the elders, he also accepted his stubbornness, "This time my father asked me to come and see the business in Qingtian Town, and I just happened to come to visit my uncle and aunt." I also heard my father talk about Sister Shuangshuang, I should have come with my father, but unfortunately the family's business really can't go away, and I only had a chance in the past two days, so I really can't go. ”
Yo, Su Qin smiled secretly, this kid is no worse than her when he fools people, obviously a gentleman just makes him a filial and capable talent.
"Where is my nephew, we are all businessmen and understand that your father has already come, and of course the family needs manpower." Tao Hong waved his hand and looked at Su Qin again, "Who is this girl?" ”
"Oh, I forgot to introduce it." Lu Ziqi pulled her over, "I heard that there are some evil things in my uncle's house, and my aunt wants to find a monk to do a ritual, but I think it may have something to do with feng shui, so I brought a friend who looks at feng shui this time, Su Qin." ”
"So my nephew knows about it, too." Tao Hong's face changed, and he looked at Mrs. Tao with some anger, "You too, they all said that you were too tired to see the mistake, but you didn't believe it, and you still went to invite any monk, you have to make everyone know, right?" ”
"I read that right." Mrs. Tao's words were a little anxious, but her voice was not loud, so she simply ignored Tao Hong, and walked in front of Lu Ziqi and Su Qin by herself, "Little nephew, I'm going to do this, it's really tricky to talk about, but you ...... it"
"Mrs. Tao." Of course, Su Qin understood what she meant, and took the preemptive action, "I studied under a famous family, and I have gained a lot of Feng Shui and I Ching techniques, Madame don't have to worry, your house is disordered, there should be something to do, if Madam believes in Young Master Lu, she can also trust me." ”
"Of course I believe in my nephew." Mrs. Tao was a little uneasy to see that Su Qin was a young girl, but since she said so, it was naturally difficult to refuse, so she simply saw that Tao Hong was unhappy, and pulled Su Qin over, "Miss Su, can you follow me to the inner hall to talk in detail." ”
"Okay." Su Qin nodded, and followed Mrs. Tao into the back room, leaving only Lu Ziqi outside to deal with Tao Hong.
When they arrived in the back room, there was no one else around, Mrs. Tao's expression suddenly fell, she shook her head and sat on the chair, "Miss Su, our house is haunted." ”
Lu Ziqi guessed correctly, it was really haunted. It's just that Su Qin has never believed in ghosts, although she is also a bit metaphysical about this matter, but Su Qin always feels that the so-called haunting is more just a human problem.
"Mrs. Tao, please elaborate."
"Actually, it shouldn't be said to be haunted, maybe it's my daughter who can't see it, but after all, the evil things in the family have been following one after another in the past few days."
