We returned to the inn again, and found his cousin in the inner room of Wang Fathai's house.

The old grandmother was lying on the ground on all fours, and the smell of burnt skin and flesh wafted in the air.

When I took two steps closer, I saw that her hair was almost burned, and her face, chest, and hands were charred, and half of her clothes were burned off. Only the place where she fell was a hardwood table, chair, and hardstone slab, and there was no combustible, otherwise the whole room would be lost.

Ooh! Is it a special session of the present world newspaper that many injustices will kill oneself?

The copper treasure cabinet against the wall had a drawer open, and a bunch of keys were stuck in the keyhole before they could be pulled out.

A delicate box half-turned over on the table was still slightly smoking, and its process was like a nesting doll, several layers of sealing, and there was still unburned powder in the middle.

Wang Fathai patted his thigh and sat on the ground, crying and shouting: "Ah, my God, what is this, what are you doing with this black sand!" ”

Then he crawled over and shook the old woman as if she still had a breath!

We quickly surrounded us.

When I really saw her face, I felt trembling. Only the whole flesh can be seen in the slightly twitching lips, and there is no good skin in the visible place.

The scorched black and red flesh mottled her entire face, she tried to open the eyelids that were almost glued together, and said weakly: "Is the fat sea back?" ”

Well, when I saw the miserable situation inside and outside here, I was scared.

Wang Fathai shook her arm, but he didn't expect that the old woman would use her last bit of strength to give him a mouthful, so that she could not breathe in or out, and she couldn't stretch her legs.

Huh?

This operation stunned everyone. Shouldn't you tell where your private money is stored before you die?

I suddenly remembered, "Hurry up, search for her waist card." ”

When I got the waist card, I saw that it was an old tailor in the division of the department!

This low-ranking female official has no right to leave the palace, and Mo Ti is a servant woman who is not in the ranks.

It's just that when such a thing happens, I'm afraid that I can't make the dead man speak. As for the superiors who let her out of the palace, who did she obey, and the initiator behind it, I am afraid that the line will be broken again.

instructed the palace guards to send the old grandmother back to the palace, and directly handed it over to the palace in the name of murdering the scholars in the Lanqiang Palace.

Then tell Nian Yi'an's entourage to escort this Wang Fat Hai to the yamen, and investigate this guy carefully, and he will definitely be able to shake out more crimes.

As for Feng Erma, keep it for the time being, it is still useful.

asked someone to loosen him from the horse garden, rubbed medicine on the wound, and ordered a table of wine and food in a nearby restaurant, a small bench with melon seeds and peanuts, everything was ready, just waiting to hear the story.

He came in with a frown, and shook his face again and again.

"Sit, sit!"

My tone was relaxed, and he was even more confused.

I glanced at him and said straight to the point: "Originally, I planned to tie you and Wang Fathai directly to the yamen, but Nian Zai is also an old acquaintance, and I wonder if I can also give you a chance to make up for it." ”

He was so excited that he wanted to kneel down and give thanks.

"Don't do it yet, I'm not done yet!"

His smile at this time was humble, and it was estimated that his father and mother didn't know him when they saw it.

I continued: "You said that you were once a member of my house, but I really don't know you, and those books were burned again without reading them. It's like lying that my family has deceived me. Say! Are you a habitual thief, and what are you stealing from my house? ”

He still knelt down and said in a lamented voice: "Miss Mingjian, the villain really has nothing else to do except do this wrong thing." ”

"Okay, then let me ask you, how many people are there in my family, who are they? What does Pingsuri do? What are your hobbies? ”

He said repeatedly: "There is a master, an old lady." The lady died early, and the master never renewed. A few years ago, the old lady had a little aunt for the old man, but ......"

"But what?"

He raised his eyes and looked at me timidly: "But Miss, you pretended to be a ghost and tossed her back to her parents' house, and when the little one left the house, she was still living in her mother's house, and she never had a ......."

"Yes, yes, you also have your uncle's family, who serves as a brigade commander in Zhichong Mansion, and is in charge of a regiment of three hundred soldiers."

I can't help but laugh, our family can be regarded as the bottom of the two camps of civil officials and military officials, which is simply the solid backing of my Southern Zhou Dynasty!

He was a little frightened: "Miss, what are you laughing at?" ”

I suppressed a smile: "It's none of your business, you go on!" ”

He nodded like a rattle: "Yes, yes." I also heard that the old man had an eldest son, and he died before the young lady was born. As for the reason, I really don't know the little one. That's all there is to it. ”

He scratched his cheeks: "After the old man usually handles official duties, he likes to go to the Zhichong Mansion to find the second master to learn martial arts, so his body has always been strong." He likes to eat raw fruits and drink tea. The old lady will think of his eldest grandson and cry for a while during the New Year's holidays, and most of the time he is still leisurely, and he loves to play with flowers and plants. ”

And when it comes to me, he is a little difficult, for fear of making me angry, and he is trying to sort out the words.

"Miss, you just drill into the room, or make a fuss in the yard at night, and no one knows what you're doing. I also like to go to the clouds on the top of the mountain, saying that it is to collect gas. ”

I moved my eyebrows: "Embroider patterns, calligraphy and painting and plant flowers, or cook tea snacks, can I do it?" ”

"It depends on the mood, sometimes you see the old lady making these female celebrities, and you also play with them. The small one thinks...... If you learn, it's a matter of immediacy, you just have to do it against the master. ”

Feng Erma saw a smile on my face, and he also echoed the smile: "Haha, miss, it's quite coke." As soon as the old man shouted, before he punished you, the old lady immediately came out to protect her, pretending to beat the old man with a broom and a pimple, and read in her mouth, just this single seedling, a child of a few years old, don't shout and be scared. ”

I began to laugh straight, Feng Erma saw this, and the speech became more interested: "Once I was sweeping the floor in the yard, I heard the old man scolding loudly - mother, can you change the words after all these years, she is already in her teens, not a few years old!" ”

Aha

I laughed out loud! Tears in my eyes!

When I was done laughing, I said to him, "Okay, I've said all that, and I'll believe you again." Remember, just stay in the old place, and if there's something you should do, I'll let you know! I'll go back first, and you'll be here by yourself, and have a good lunch." ”

Thanks to him, I got up and left the private room of the restaurant.

Nian Yi'an asked me puzzled: "Why spare him, this kind of person who plotted to kill the old master is punished lightly in exile." ”

I smiled: "Wait, keep him, the initiator in this palace will show his head." ”

Nian Yi'an sighed: "Is this layer really so important? Since he knows you better than others, he will be more skilled in harming you in the future. That's what I'm afraid of! Isn't that the case today, except for acquaintances, who would come up with such a poisonous plan? ”

I pursed my lips, thinking he had a point.

"Okay, I'll send someone to keep an eye on him for a few days, and if I don't see any other informants in the short term, I'll finish him off. Fish on your own, huh, you can figure it out. ”

I raised my twinkling eyes and looked at him, "How did you know that there was something wrong with the book in my hand?" ”

He tapped my head lightly: "You, careless! This is exactly the news I found out early this morning, I was about to look for you, the winter break is coming, you are running fast enough! Wang Fathai of this small inn, on the surface, is the second shopkeeper and half of the shopkeeper, and he secretly sells the black sand he made in the dungeon. This small inn is also one of the trading places in Black Sands. ”

"The person who bought the black sand secretly sprinkled it on the person, sandwiched it in the pages of a book, hid it in the stove, and so on, and this has been the case recorded by the government in recent years. There are also the main ingredients of this black sand, including iron powder, vermiculite, pyrolytic carbon, and a certain amount of copper powder! It can only be kept in an airtight container. If you see the air to the fullest, you already know the consequences. The old woman was given a greater dose, and she died! You, I'll be one step late, haha, I still have to take you to Changsheng Mountain, and find Xue Ling Fairy Concubine to treat your little face! ”

I instantly came to the spirit: "Immortal Mountain? Snow Spirit Fairy? What a beautiful name! Where did it come from? ”

Nian Yi'an said mysteriously: "This is a fairy in our Lanqiang legend, she is the adopted daughter of the Queen of Heaven, with a body of half immortal and half demon. Some reasons have been sealed in Changsheng Mountain to this day. However, its immortal method is outstanding, which can restore all damaged facial skin, and even the skin can be like coagulated fat, with the beauty of ice muscle and jade bones. It's not easy to find her. It is even more difficult to seek gifts. ”

My cherry mouth is round: "Wow~~, it's amazing!" Has anyone ever seen a fairy concubine? ”

Nian Yi'an smiled: "Anyway, since I can remember, no one has asked for success." ”

"Huh? You're fooling me with a myth! I grabbed my pink fist and pounded it at him.

He hid while laughing: "I didn't lie to you, I didn't lie to you!" It's true. With a gift that you think is appropriate, at the bottom of the Immortal Mountain, bow down to a snow lotus on the top of the mountain, and a fairy bird will fly down and fly around you several times. If it takes away your gift, it is the fairy concubine who chose you, just wait a while, and there will be an immortal envoy to pick you up the mountain~"

I opened my eyes wide: "Didn't you get chosen?" ”

He teased me with my pouting: "If you don't choose, you will go home the same way and come back next year!" ”

I asked again, "Then in addition to the art of rejuvenating the face, is the fairy concubine willing to perform other spells for mortals?" ”

Nian Yi'an thought for a while: "There is one more, but when I heard that the words require a conditional exchange, the price is heavy." You can ask her to cast a spell and channel, meet the dead again, and talk again. ”

I can't help but feel a stir in my heart, and the state of mind of the person who asks for this is so unbearable that people can't bear to read it.

I rubbed my eyes and pretended to cry: "This request is really miserable~~~"

He smiled again, his eyes flashing with little stars: "This is going to cry?" Then I don't dare to tell the story of the Snow Spirit Fairy anymore, provoke a slug, don't think I'm bullying you! ”

"No, talk ~ talk about it ~ quickly ~ !"

So on the seesaw of the garden, you sat and I sat down and talked about the fairy whom I had never heard of.

One speaks attentively, and the other listens with relish.
