93, ghost-faced scholar
When a few people went upstairs.
Suddenly a scream was heard.
Ahh
Duanmu Qingchen walked in front, she followed the voice, and as soon as she pushed the door, she saw a scholar dressed in red fruit sitting on the ground, he covered his mouth with horror on his face, and couldn't say a word.
There was a woman on the couch.
"What's going on?" Duanmu Qingchen said coldly and asked.
When she approached, she found that the sick scholar had several needles in his mouth, which had been inserted into his throat and eyes, and blood was gushing out, and he was unable to speak with a face full of pain in his throat.
"Don't touch it!" Chu Yunqing had just entered the door, and when he saw that Duanmu Qingchen wanted to pull out the needle for the scholar, he hurriedly said, "The needle is poisonous." ”
"Huh?" Duanmu Qingchen was stunned for a moment and frowned, "Then what should I do?"
"Find a magnet to suck the needle out, it's made of iron, find two people to hold his mouth, don't close it, I'm afraid he will swallow the needle." Chu Yun said softly, got up and walked over to the bed.
The curtains were torn down, and a light red veil was placed over the woman.
She collapsed in a pool of blood, revealing a large white back, on which a painting had been carved into it.
Chu Yun squatted down lightly and found some powder on the edge of the bed, and there were a few round things next to the powder, red, like insect eggs: "It's a misty incense." ”
"Do these two know each other?"
"Hmm. He was the one who went to Beijing to take the exam, because the queen mother was jealous, and made up for another big exam, and this girl came with him, as if she met a runaway lady on the road. Duanmu Qingchen said that she also heard the maid in the store mention it.
In short, the weak scholar has been pursuing this little girl, and the two of them can be regarded as concubines, but they didn't expect that there would be so many things in one night.
Chu Yun lightly stretched out his hand and motioned for Mo Ling to turn the corpse over.
The woman was born very well-behaved and quiet, but she didn't expect to be a rebellious little girl.
There weren't too many wounds on her body, she was doing something like that, she was broken by someone after lighting the incense, she lowered her head, and was about to look at the wounds on her body.
Something suddenly flew out of the light gauze account.
Feng Jinyan pulled her body and slashed with his sword: "Be careful!"
It landed, and it was a red blood bat.
Chu Yun was lightly startled, and he reacted quickly.
"You come over first, and let Mo Ling check what else is hidden!" the man frowned, impatiently.
is afraid that Chu Yun will be bitten lightly.
She breathed a sigh of relief and shook her head: "It's okay, probably I didn't have time to fly away before." ”
She also knew what was dark red on the ground, the marks left by the bats.
"She was bitten by a bat and poisoned, and she died, but the murderer seems to have forgotten to leave something crucial. Chu Yun frowned lightly, and did not find the rabbit god that should appear in this room.
"In the next room. ”
Tan Xiu came in from outside the door, he was already asleep, he heard the movement upstairs and quickly got up, he came up from the other side of the stairs, so he went there first and found the statue.
"Sure enough, it was him. Duanmu Qingchen took a deep breath and clenched her hands tightly, she calmed herself down, "He's in this store, maybe he's hiding in that corner and watching me now, watching me have an emotional breakdown, he's really amazing." ”
"Don't mess around, you're just a killer. Tan Xiu stepped forward, "If he really has the ability, he would have killed us a long time ago, if he is such a tricky person, if there is a weakness, don't be afraid, the master is here." ”
He smiled, reached out and patted Duanmu Qingchen's shoulder, and the woman shook, probably frightened.
The magnet came, and Chu Yunqing personally pulled out the needle for the scholar.
The scholar's face trembled with fright, and he tried to close his mouth in pain.
"Let go of him, come, go decoction, by the way, you go yourself. Chu Yun instructed lightly, handed the powder package to Mo Ling, she grinded it into powder and carried it on her body, a total of seven or eight packs, most of which were used, and there were still two packs left, in fact, she was reluctant to give it to this scholar.
If it weren't for seeing that he was still a little useful, Chu Yunqing would probably have another way to detoxify him.
The scholar babbled a few words, which probably meant that he would survive.
"Whether it's life or death, we don't count. ”
Chu Yun lightly put down the magnet in his hand, and the needle fell on the table, staining the silver needle black.
It was indeed highly poisonous, but it was only on the needle, which was very strange, she leaned over, looked at it carefully for a while, and then went to probe the scholar's pulse.
It was peaceful, with no hint of poisoning.
"What the hell is going on with her?" Chu Yun frowned slightly, feeling strange in his heart, and pointed to the woman on the bed.
"I ...... I am a person who entered Beijing to take the exam, and my father is the prefect of Jeonju...... Big...... My lord. He didn't speak very well, and it took him a long time to barely get something out, "I saved her on the way, and I was looking ...... Wangze Mansion lived, she ...... She loved it and I think the time is right and I plan to stay here for a while. ”
In order to repay the grace of saving her life, the little girl has not been so good to her since she was a child, so she simply stayed with the scholar.
As he spoke, his words a little agitated, tears streaming down his cheeks.
"I planned to marry her after the exam, who knows. ”
He was heartbroken.
"Really?" Chu Yun pursed his lips and smiled, "Then you did such a thing before you got married?"
"When the love is strong, it is inevitable that you can't help it, I am ...... Man...... Man. ”
Chu Yun stared at him lightly for a long time, but didn't speak, she reached out and tapped his back twice.
"What do you do?"
The scholar opened her mouth in horror, not knowing what Chu Yunqing was going to do, she smiled contemptuously: "It's neat to speak at this time." ”
"You ......"
Chu Yun lightly reached out to grab the scholar's face, but instead was grabbed by the scholar on the ground, her hand slid down, and the scholar, who was still in a predicament, got up, took out a brush from his arms, and poked the woman's heart.
Chu Yun turned around lightly, not much, and kicked him away with one kick.
"Judge's pen, you are a ghost-faced scholar!" Feng Jinyan condensed, pulling Chu Yun behind him lightly, he took a step forward, and raised his sword to fight with the scholar.
The tip of the brush bloomed, and many gold needles shot out of it, which was more ruthless than the rainstorm pear flower needle.
It's a pity that his ability, how can Feng Jinyan be powerful, but his ability to escape is stronger.
He flipped out of the window, followed by Feng Jinyan.
"I'll go too!" Tan Xiu wiped the window to go out, but was stopped by Duanmu Qingchen.
"In your current state, forget it. She condensed, "He is the number one thief in the hands of Ghost Hand Yin, ranking after me, but his ability is much more powerful than yours, he is good at concealment, he wears a human skin mask all the year round, and his methods are very ruthless." ”
"That's right. Chu Yun said in a low voice, she had never suspected that this scholar was exposed too quickly.
He moved Chu Yunqing's point, and from that moment on, she was suspicious.
In addition, on the back of the woman's corpse, the piece of human skin that was dug up was delicate and white, which was different from the previous corpses, as if it was dug up on a whim.
Chu Yun walked over lightly and turned the woman over, and sure enough, the fingernails of the corpse were intact, without the golden nails of the ones seen in the basement before.
"What's wrong?"
Duanmu Qingchen stepped forward.
"No, it's a pity that this little girl mistrusts bad people. She sighed, looking at her age, but she was deceived and ended up like this.
"I'll take care of the aftermath for her, just that person. ”
Duanmu Qingchen swept around, the meaning was very clear, the person was still in the inn, and now he was hiding in the dark.
She was scared that something would happen tonight.
Chu Yunqing didn't speak, his eyes fell on the dancing flame.
She looked out the window.
The man dressed in white stabbed the sword into the heart of the ghost-faced scholar, and a smile appeared on the scholar's face: "The Seventh Prince hasn't seen me for a long time, but it's a pity that it's too late to find me." ”
The blood that flashed under his eyes suddenly turned into a puff of smoke and disappeared into the night.
"Don't chase him, he's a thief, we can't catch up with him. Chu Yun said in a low voice, Feng Jinyan immediately came in from the window, and his body was dyed with a bunch of powder, which was sprinkled when he fought with the ghost-faced scholar just now, and he couldn't notice it if he didn't look closely.
"Drag it off. ”
"What is this?" Feng Jinyan frowned, watching the powder slowly grow longer and stand on his clothes as fluff.
Just for a moment, Duanmu Qingchen screamed sharply as if he had seen a ghost.
"It's a ghost ......"
She covered her mouth, looking terrified.
Chu Yun lightly spread the robe on the ground and checked whether Feng Jinyan had been injured by the hidden weapon, fortunately, it was okay, but wait.
"It's a good hair. Chu Yun retracted her hand lightly, and a bunch of hair grew on Feng Jinyan's back, looking dark from the outside, she was very anxious and asked Feng Jinyan to take off her clothes.
The hairs were thin and long, digging into his flesh and swaying there, falling through the collar, a little below the shoulders.
She was very anxious and asked Duanmu Qingchen: "What are these?"
"I don't know, it's a ghost, a ghost. Duanmu Qingchen held her head, squatted on one side, and her speech became very weird, she asked Chu Yun to look at the corpse on the bed lightly, and she knew what these hairs were.
Chu Yun walked over quickly, and saw that the hair that grew from the woman's seven orifices was the same as Feng Jinyan's body, very long.
"Say, what the hell is this?"
"These things will follow the blood, burrow into the heart, and there is no cure. ”
Duanmu Qingchen muttered, saying that it was a forbidden technique of ghost hand sound, but he didn't expect it to fall on Feng Jinyan.
"Go and fetch a fire. Chu Yun said in a low voice.
"It's useless, they're all alive, it's not the same as the hair. ”
"Fire, and all my tools. Chu Yun's eyes were a little moist in a hurry, she grabbed Feng Jinyan's hand and went downstairs.
The man was relieved: "It doesn't hurt, don't cry!"
"I didn't cry. Someone stiffly spoke, "That's not what bothers me, who am I." ”
She took a deep breath and slammed the door shut, even Tan Xiu could see that Chu Yun was panicked lightly, completely flustered, but the expression on his face did not change.
"No one is allowed to come in except Mo Ling. ”
"Yes. ”
She straightened the person and asked him to take off the clothes inside, but the hairs were connected to the clothes and flesh, and they couldn't be torn off at all.
"Take a stick and bite the prince!"
The anesthetic had been eaten, but it was still of little use, and she knew that the man was holding back, swallowing all the pain into her stomach.
His muscles flared up, and he gritted his teeth: "No need, let's do it." ”
Those hairs were growing wildly, growing out of it, and Chu Yun lightly took the knife and cut it gently, cutting it little by little along the edge.
These are not rotten flesh, they are really on the body, and they will bleed with a single stroke.
She felt the man's trembling, but Chu Yunqing knew very well in her heart that if she didn't do it quickly, he would hurt even more.
She slashed down, and as the hairs ran down her fingers, a cluster of flames burst up, and the whole back was burned under the influence of alcohol.
Soon, her back was burned black, and she sprinkled a bunch of powdered medicine on it.
But I can still hear the sound of sizzling, but fortunately the hair is gone.
Chu Yun hugged him in fright, tears flowed down, she cried, crying silently: "I'm so useless." ”
The man held her hand, his palms were full of cold sweat, an iron-clad man, his hands were covered with cold sweat, but he didn't say a word, Feng Jinyan smiled and comforted her: "Isn't this okay, don't cry, I will hurt if you cry." ”
But the woman sprinkled and couldn't stop crying, and her voice trembled.
"I will pay him with blood. ”
Chu Yun gritted his teeth viciously, his eyes full of murderous aura.
The man whispered and pulled her to the front: "No need, you just need to accompany me, and leave the matter of blood debt and blood repayment to your husband." ”
He slowly clasped his hands.
It's as if to release the confinement in the depths of the soul.
The woman was lying on his lap, because she didn't dare to move him, she kept squatting like this, Chu Yun wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, she was his woman, she was definitely not allowed to cry, and she would not cry!
He cupped her little face, crumpled, and reached out to wipe away tears.
"Cry, ugly. ”
"You're ugly. ”
Chu Yun gritted his teeth lightly and scolded.
"The medicine that was decocted by the scholar before, give it to the prince to drink and clean up the toxins in his body. She whispered, she had secretly put something in Feng Jinyan's wound before.
She was afraid that those hairs would not be easily pulled out by her, but fortunately, it was okay, her fingertips rubbed indiscriminately on his hands, and Chu Yunqing had no choice, and was shocked for a moment.
Chu Yun took a deep breath.
"It's okay. ”
"Silly girl. ”
Feng Jinyan calmed down her heart, no longer hurt, so she picked her up, sat on her lap with her arms, and the two talked for a while, and only when the blood clotted in the wound did she come down and help him clean up some dirty things and apply medicine.
The two of them were not in the mood to mess around, so they said a few words, watched Feng Jinyan drink the medicine, and then went out again.
But when they got downstairs, they heard a knock at the door.
By this time, it was not early.
The maid went to see the door, and in the dim light, Chu Yun looked at the person clearly, it was a scar man, and there was a woman standing beside him, who was a little weird, and the girl looked a little strange.
The two don't like each other.
"When did the two of you leave, my proprietress also mentioned sending dinner upstairs. ”
"Huh. The woman snorted coldly, did not speak, and kept a straight face, and it could be seen that the two were quarreling.
Why is the scar man very good, took off his hat, and said with a smile: "I got up too early in the morning, so I didn't greet you, and I went to the sea of flowers and walked around and participated in the city lord's birthday banquet." ”
"That's right. ”
The maid smiled and didn't ask much, after all, it was not too early, and it was not good to leave them behind.
Chu Yunqing and the others stood on one side of the stairs, meeting the woman's gaze.
Duanmu Qingchen happened to come down from upstairs: "The two of you are not in the room." ”
"Yes. ”
"Don't talk when you see anyone, you can't go back, do you want the old lady to wait for you?" The woman pulled down her face, as if she didn't want to continue talking to Duanmu Qingchen, the scar man smiled embarrassedly, he didn't look ugly, but the scar was a bit of an eyesore.
Duanmu Qingchen frowned, didn't say anything, and let them go upstairs.
forced out a ghost-faced scholar, so what about the ghost-faced voice, it was one of these people, or only the ghost-faced scholar lurking in the inn.
Duanmu Qingchen shook his hands and smiled politely at Chu Yun: "I'll go down first." ”
"Hmm. ”
Chu Yun didn't say much, and then stood on the platform on the second floor, her ears were excellent, and she heard the sound of the old woman beating and scolding from that room, and the bud was beaten and wailed again and again, she was a mute, and she could only make a simple babbling sound.
At this moment, I was beaten and hurt, and I cried out.
"I told you to be disobedient and not drink the medicine well, how many times have I said that the medicine must be taken on time. ”
"Do you dare to talk back, watch me tear your mouth apart!"
Two shadows were running around in the house, and Ya'er was running around, for fear of being caught by her mother-in-law.
She finally wailed and lay there, tossing the old woman.
After a long time, Chu Yun was slightly stunned before he heard what the old woman was saying.
"That's my good bud. ”
Tuk Tuk ......
There was a knock on the door, followed by insults, and when I heard that someone had died on the third floor, the couple who lived upstairs moved down.
It was the woman who looked like a girl and a man, and roared angrily: "What are you arguing about, and you don't let people sleep, I said who are you, grandma or grandmother, don't you look like a relative, it's a human trafficker?"
This man has been talking for a long time.
The old woman in the room had a gloomy face, but she was very calm.
"The child is not good at taking medicine, he has been making trouble, and his old body is helpless. ”
"I see that you are very energetic when you beat her, don't be afraid, little girl, tell my sister, is she your relative?" the man said in a low voice, looking up at the old woman.
The old woman coughed a few times, and Ya'er shook her head, her eyes full of fear.
The woman was messing around, so she had to pull Ya'er away, saying that she was afraid that she would be beaten stupid, and after making trouble for a while, the scar man came: "Other people's family affairs, what do you care." ”
"This old woman abuses the little doll, I can't look at it, so Ming'er will send her to the official. ”
The woman crossed her hips.
The old woman said coldly, "Ya'er, come here." ”
But there was no anger at all, as if there were only buds in his eyes.
Ya'er hid behind the woman, probably scared, the old woman turned around and sighed: "You can't even compare to an outsider to your mother-in-law, okay, okay, you go with him, don't blame your mother-in-law for getting sick again after you leave." ”
"This old woman is very sinister. The woman said coldly, leading the buds to leave.
But I didn't want to think that in an instant, the scar man flashed in front of him, and his knife cut off the old woman's long hair, and the knife was very fast, cutting iron like clay.
Chu Yun stiffened slightly, and from this angle, he couldn't see what was going on their side.
This old woman is agile, how can she have a little rickety, and her crutches have turned into a long sword, like a thorn, and she has become a piece with the scar man.
"You ruthless old woman!"
"Two little catchers, it's hard for you to track down so much, the old woman wanted to let you go, but unfortunately it was sent to the door. She chuckled, "Go back and tell you adults, no, you can't go back, the corpse will stay here and give me the sprouts as medicine." ”
She giggled and stepped forward, her sword grazing the scarred man's arm, and the old woman was ghostly.
Suddenly in front, suddenly in the back.
The scar man had a hard time dealing with it, and his body had been cut several times.
Duanmu Qingchen's people went upstairs, and when they saw that something was wrong, they quickly called the proprietress over.
"What's going on?"
"She is a wanted criminal in the imperial court, specializing in the abduction and trafficking of young children, and we are hunting her down. ”
The woman standing beside her, no, it should be said that she was a man, but she was dressed as a woman, and she was born very charming, and even Chu Yunqing didn't see the flaws.
"How can the old body be a prisoner, they want to take away the buds. ”
The old woman said fiercely.
Duanmu Qingchen took a step forward and noticed that something was wrong, the old woman tore off the human skin mask on her face, a fairly delicate face, different from the old dragon clock before.
She chuckled and put her gloves on.
"Since they're all here, then I'll solve a few more problems, so that the flowers of the sea of flowers can have nourishment. ”
After she finished speaking, the sword in her hand split in two, and the speed was terrifying, and the long sword grazed the scarred man's neck, and in just one moment, the man fell to the ground.
The "woman" behind her covered her mouth in fright and hurriedly ran over: "What's the matter with you?"
"It's fine. ”
"I can't die for the time being, but the knife is poisonous, boss, I didn't intend to kill you, who asked you to send it to the door." The old woman walked up to Duanmu Qingchen.
But seeing the murderous aura flashing in Duanmu Qingchen's eyes, she said softly: "Since you're here, don't think about leaving." ”
She didn't know if this person was a ghost hand, but looking at the technique just now, it was very sharp.
The whip hung around the man's neck and pulled it hard.
The old woman personally grabbed her whip and brought her forward, and the two beat her from the inside of the house to the outside of the house.
There are many figures staggered in front of you.
Duanmu Qingchen was stunned in place, just a second of hesitation, the old woman's knife came to her, she reached out and grabbed the tip, pulled it hard, and took out a dagger from her boot with her other hand.
Throw it out.
Pierced the old woman's forehead hard.
The woman was stunned for a moment: "You...... It's killing ......"
She fell off the roof, Duanmu Qingchen fell in a hurry, and when she was unstable, she fell heavily on the roof.
......
At this time, the woman who was waiting in the house said to the bud beside her: "That person was killed, you saw it...... Ah......h
A knife stabbed into his waist, and the man froze and stared.
"Who are you?"
But the answer to him was that there was no shadow, and the little girl turned into a shadow and disappeared without a trace.
