Chapter 337: The Legendary Human Skin Lantern
Zheng Yuzhu floated in, "My father died, and I came back." ”
Xue Wu looked at her expression, and asked in a somewhat cautious tone, "Uncle Zheng has passed away?" Are you okay? ”
Zheng Yuzhu shook her head, and her tone was calm: "My father went very peacefully, it was a happy funeral. After his first seven, I left. ”
Without her father's home, it will no longer be her home after all, and the eldest brother's family is doing well now, so she doesn't need to stay there anymore.
"And what's next for you?" Xue asked if she had signed a contract with Zheng Yuzhu, but her original intention was not to restrict her freedom, but to prevent her from going astray again.
Zheng Yuzhu: "Naturally, I followed you, I said I would help you do things, you won't dislike me, right?" ”
"Of course not, but I don't have anything to do with you for the time being-"
Before she finished speaking, Zheng Yuzhu suddenly passed past her, came to the bed, stared at the poor lantern, and looked serious: "Where did you get this lantern from?" ”
"I bought it at a stall during the Lantern Festival, what's wrong, there's something wrong with this lantern?"
Zheng Yuzhu said slowly: "This lantern is made of human skin. ”
Xue Wu: "!! ”
Aren't human skin lanterns only found in ghost stories? In reality, there are really people who make lanterns out of human skin? No wonder she always felt that something was wrong with this lantern!
Now I finally know why.
Thinking that she had been hanging this thing on the head of the bed for the past few days, Xue Wu had goosebumps and quickly took off the lantern.
"Originally, I said that there was nothing for you to do, but it turned out to be in a blink of an eye, Yuzhu, I want you to help me find out the person who made the human skin lantern."
"Okay."
Xue Wu burned the human skin lantern, took out a tracking charm and threw it into the ashes, and the talisman turned into a faint blue butterfly, "Follow this butterfly, you can find out who took the lantern human skin from, and maybe you can follow the person's trail to find the person behind the scenes." ”
Zheng Yuzhu nodded, stretched out a hand, and the butterfly landed in her palm.
Xue Yu handed her a treasure bag, which contained a lot of items that she could use, and now Zheng Yuzhu's cultivation has been a little successful, and she can touch the real thing.
"Be careful on the road, after finding that person, you don't have to do anything, just remember the person's identity and appearance."
Zheng Yuzhu took the treasure bag and hung it around her waist, "Well, I won't startle the snake." ”
After she left, Xue Wu immediately went out of the door, went to Xue Jun's room, and knocked on the door: "Jun'er? Slept? ”
It's not early at this time, Xue Jun usually goes to bed early, and she is already asleep at this time, she woke up when she heard her knock on the door, and thought something was wrong, so she got up and opened the door for her, "Sister, what's wrong?" ”
"Do you still have the lanterns we won from the stall on the day of the Lantern Festival?"
"It's still there." Xue Jun put the lantern in the box, and when she asked, he opened the box and took out the lantern.
Xue Wu touched the surface of the lantern, the touch was smooth and delicate, and her heart trembled, this lantern felt exactly the same as hers! Apparently also made of human skin.
Originally, when she touched it, she only thought that the paper used to make the lantern was special and the material was better, but now that she knew that it was human skin, she only felt that the hand that touched the lantern seemed to be stained with a layer of blood, and there was an indescribable sticky-greasy and slippery feeling.
She couldn't tell Xue Jun the truth, so as not to frighten her, "Jun'er, can you lend me the lantern for two days?" ”
Xue Jun naturally had no reason not to agree, "Why do we sisters need to borrow from each other, Sister Ah will take it directly." ”
Xue Wu nodded her nose, "That's not good." Okay, go to sleep, I'm leaving. ”
She closed the door and went to the door of Xue Yao's room again.
He also "borrowed" lanterns from him.
All three lanterns are made of human skin! And it was taken from different people, so you can imagine how crazy the people who did it were.
Now, there is only one left in Pei Lian's place.
Xue Wu came to the door of his room and knocked on the door, "Akang? Did you sleep? ”
There was not a single movement in it.
Could it be that you are asleep?
If it was for something else, it would be fine, but it was about the human skin lantern, and Xue Wu would not let this thing stay in his room any longer.
She shouted twice, but there was no answer in it, Pei Lin had never slept so deeply, although his memory went back to his childhood, but his body was an adult, and he had always been alert, how could she not respond to him even when she shouted a few times?
Could something had happened to him?
Xue Wu was suddenly anxious, disappeared in place out of thin air, and when she reappeared, she was already standing in front of Pei Lian's bed, "Akang-"
Where is his figure on the bed? Where is he!
Taken captive? The entire Xue Mansion was set up by her, except for the people in the house, outsiders would alarm the formation when they entered, it was impossible for her not to know, so he took the initiative to leave?
The bedding on the bed was still folded well, without the slightest mess, which seemed to confirm this even more.
Xue Wu was confused for a while, and couldn't help but think of a certain possibility, that is, he had recovered his memory, so he left.
Those memories of the past flashed through his mind one by one, and he smiled stupidly at her, hugged her and shook her coquettishly, saying that he would never leave her appearance......
It turned out that unconsciously, he had already taken deep roots in her heart, and she usually didn't feel it, but now that he left suddenly, she found that her feelings for him had changed.
Pawnshops all over the world.
Pei Lin walked into the underground cell, and there was a person imprisoned inside, could it be the owner of the lantern stall before?
On the night of the Lantern Festival, Xue Jun was abducted under his nose, and although he was later recovered, Pei Lin was still very angry, for which Wang Yan was also punished and received thirty whips.
After that, Pei Lin asked him to atone for his sins and find out who kidnapped Xue Jun.
Unlike Xue Yan, Wang Yan found more things, that group of traffickers just did things for others, and their peak was the lantern stall owner!
The stall owner sells lanterns fakely, and secretly looking for a little girl who meets the requirements is real.
In fact, he had his eyes on Xue Wu and Xue Jun sisters, but at that time, Pei Lin protected Xue Wu tightly, even if he was dragged into the crowd, Pei Lin never let go of Xue Wu, so the traffickers failed to find a chance to start.
But Xue Jun was rushed away, which gave them an opportunity to take advantage of.
After finding out about the stall owner, Wang Yan asked his subordinates to arrest him back, torture and interrogate, but unfortunately the stall owner only confided in some irrelevant information, he had already found those things, why did he need to say it?
What Wang Yan wants to know is the person behind the stall owner.
But the stall owner just gritted his teeth and didn't let go.
Today is the deadline for Pei Lin to report to Wang Yan, so come over and see how things are going.
Wang Yan was quite ashamed, "Master, I haven't asked yet." ”
