Chapter 19: You Took His Place
"Why don't you stand there and not go in?" Zheng got up, and when he saw that Qingyu stood at the door of the stove room and didn't go in, he was very puzzled, "Is Hongyu up?" ”
Qingyu hurriedly wiped away a handful of tears, and turned around to reveal a bright smile, "It's up, right?" Probably went out to play. ”
Zheng didn't care, Hongyu was such a big person, he might have gone somewhere early in the morning.
The mother and daughter cooked a meal, it was already bright that day, Hongyu hadn't come back yet, Zheng couldn't help but be anxious, "This child doesn't run blindly on weekdays, it's all ordered, and I don't know if I'm coming back." Did you give him too much food last night? ”
Hongyu is greedy, Zheng has seen it, it is a meal that does not fall, today really surprised her.
Qingyu nodded and smiled reluctantly, "Whatever, maybe he's injured and gone." ”
"Then there is no conscience," hearing her say this, Zheng's face was unhappy, "Anyway, we saved him, not to mention that the grace of a drop of water must be repaid by a spring, at least we have to say that we will leave again." ”
Qingyu lowered her head, not knowing how to explain. She didn't dare to tell the Zheng family the truth, but seeing her wronging Hongyu, she felt sad in her heart.
Gritting her teeth, she felt that instead of making the Zheng family frightened, it was better to hide it like this.
It's just bitter Hongyu.
One day she was in good spirits.
In the evening, Father Liu came to call her, saying that there were many dead bodies in Yizhuang.
She hurriedly took a few bites of dinner, explained to the Zheng family, and set off with Daddy Liu. As usual, she and Father Liu carried a lantern that was clearly extinguished, and hurriedly walked on the night path.
In the dark night, you can't see your fingers, and you can touch the familiar path without looking. It's just that tonight, it seems to be a little quieter, and there is not even the sound of insects.
This made Lu Qingyu's scalp tense for no reason.
"Daddy, why am I panicking?" The foreboding in Lu Qingyu's heart slowly climbed, and he couldn't help but step forward and grab Daddy Liu's sleeve.
Father Liu stretched out his hand and patted her on the shoulder, comforting: "It's okay, it's okay, what are you afraid of?" Although he said this, he thought in his heart: In the end, she is a girl, and she has been with him for so many days, and she is still timid.
The sense of foreboding in Lu Qingyu's heart not only did not lessen, but became heavier as he got closer and closer to Yizhuang.
The gate of Yizhuang was still open, and two watermelon lanterns hung under the gatehouse, swaying brightly in the evening breeze, adding a touch of horror to this ominous place.
"Old Zhangtou, I'm here." Daddy Liu stood at the door and shouted, swaggering into the threshold.
Lu Qingyu hesitated in his heart and followed in.
The door slammed shut behind them, like a thump in the heart.
She turned around, and saw two black-clothed masked men standing behind the door, approaching silently.
"Daddy......" She was frightened, but found that her voice couldn't come out of her throat.
"Damn, did the old man sleep dead?" Daddy Liu walked forward, but before he could take a few steps, he was hit on the back of the head with a stick and fell to the ground.
Lu Qingyu quietly picked the cowhide bag around his waist, cold sweat was dripping on his forehead, and he stammered and asked, "You, who are you?" I, I'm a corpse sewing, and I have no grievances with you......"
The black-clad masked man ignored her, and one of them stepped forward and twisted her arms, so painful that she almost rolled down to tears.
Another dragged the old man who had fallen to the ground into the morgue.
Lu Qingyu stumbled into the house, and saw a person tied to a local chair, with a rag stuffed in his mouth.
She and Daddy Liu, who had passed out, were also tied up, and the two black-clad masked men stood behind them.
When it moved, there was a creak in the door of the next room, and several people in black walked in with a man in a bright red cloak.
It's just that the man has a hood on his head, and in the dim light, he can't see her face clearly for a while.
Lu Qingyu felt a lot calmer at this time, thinking that it was a blessing or a curse or a curse, they were all inconspicuous ordinary people, just to make some hard-earned money, and they would not offend anyone at all. I haven't been killed until now, but I'm just tied up here, thinking that this group of people has something to ask.
Let's take it one step at a time.
She made up her mind and waited for the rest of the story.
The woman in red moved the lotus step lightly, slowly stepped forward, looked at Lu Qingyu condescendingly, and suddenly laughed for a moment, her voice like spring water flowing in a mountain stream.
"This little brother, have you seen this person?" The woman's hands slowly unfolded a scroll, on which was painted a young man, with beautiful eyebrows, a high nose, thin lips, and a pair of desert-like eyes that were very eye-catching.
Lu Qingyu only glanced at it, and a storm and waves were set off in his heart, isn't this Hongyu? Could it be that this woman in red is his master?
She wasn't sure what their relationship was, and she didn't know if Lao Zhangtou had confessed, so she opened her mouth very carefully, "I'm just a corpse sewer, all I have seen in the past few days are mutilated corpses, and I have never seen such a good-looking person!" ”
"Sne......er" The woman laughed harmlessly, took a step closer and picked up Lu Qingyu's chin, the two faced each other, and Lu Qingyu saw her face under the hood.
Thrillingly beautiful, incomparable, a smile is captivating, delicate as a flower......
She was so short of words that she didn't know how to describe the beauty of this woman. She thinks that her appearance is not low, but in front of this woman, she is just a clear soup and noodles. This woman is a gorgeous peony, and she is the little wild chrysanthemum on the side of the road.
Lu Qingyu was stunned for a while.
"Yo, there's still such a thing in this ordinary little place!" The woman frowned and smiled, almost hooking the soul of Lu Qingyu, a woman!
As a woman, Lu Qingyu really feels ashamed of herself!
"Since you haven't seen him, it's better for you to replace him!" The woman smiled to herself and let go of her hand.
Lu Qingyu didn't understand how to replace Hongyu.
Two black-clothed masked men came up behind her, untied her, took her by the arm and walked out.
"Miss, what should you do with these two people?" The masked man in black asked the woman in red.
"Burn it." The woman smiled indifferently, turned around and walked out, leaving a fluttering sentence, "This is a place to burn corpses, it doesn't hurt to burn two more people!" ”
Lu Qingyu suddenly woke up from his stunned stupor and glared at the woman in red, "They are just two old men, please let them go." ”
"Look, that's kind!" The woman in red had a good voice that seemed to flow with honey, and looked at Lu Qingyu intently, "Or, you replaced them?" ”
Lu Qingyu concluded: No matter how much Mary she is, she can't be burned to death.
This woman seems to be playing with them, one by one, treating human life as a child's play, like crushing an ant to death, I don't know where it came from!
"Since you can't do it, let's go." The woman in red looked at her mockingly and walked forward.
Lu Qingyu almost wanted to cry without tears, and watched the black-clothed masked man seal the door, pour oil on the doors and windows, and light them with torches......
The flames licked the window lattice, beeping and burning happily, instantly illuminating the dark night.
The woman in red stopped to watch, and the fire reflected her delicate face, which was indescribably weird.
