Chapter 141: He Fu
This color may be able to suppress the evil aura of the Northern Underworld, making him more like a mortal.
"The sick seedlings like to wear these faint colors." Shen Beilin stared at the white brocade robe hanging on one side, and his eyes suddenly sank.
"Your Highness?" When Ming Beilin suddenly mentioned His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, my heart throbbed slightly.
Indeed, His Highness is best suited to wear white robes, because he is a person who makes people feel clean and warm.
"You, miss him again?" Beilin's sword eyebrows were raised high.
I didn't refute, but I whispered, "The dead are gone." ”
"Chu Xiyan, from now on, me?" Beilin looked at me with a serious face, and when I saw him with such a look, I couldn't help but get nervous, not knowing what he was going to say next.
"Me?" Shen Beilin was actually a little stumbling.
"Elder Sacrifice Spirit, you see, this green robe is not bad." Shi Songliang interjected on the side.
Beilin glared at Shi Songliang, and what he was about to say seemed to be swallowed back into his stomach.
"Xuan Ling's, I'll sew some myself." I chose soft fabrics, the child grows up fast, he and the grand plan, I am afraid that I have to buy it often, and change it often.
"Nishang made him a lot of small clothes, but they were all stained with blood, and when he went back and washed them, he gave them a try." After saying that, he motioned to the owner of the silk shop and sent all the things I liked to the inn where we lived, including the white brocade robe.
After buying it, as soon as he came out of the silk village, Shi Songliang opened his mouth and cautiously asked Ming Beilin, do you want to go to the town's sacrificial temple to have a look?
"Chu Xiyan, we still lack some warm shoes." Beilin looked at me and talked to me, but he didn't pay attention to Shi Songliang at all.
Shi Songliang could only continue to accompany him, bought shoes, bought handkerchiefs, sachet bags, sewing kits, and finally even candied fruit.
"Do you sell sugar gourds?" Beilin looked sideways at Shi Songliang.
Shi Songliang's mouth was open, and his complexion had turned blue-white.
I guess I was angry, he had been walking around with us for an hour, and he was already impatient.
"If a few people want to eat, after a while, let the innkeeper make some." As soon as Shi Songliang's words fell, a muffled thunder came from the sky.
"Boom!"
I looked up and looked over, and it was gray and it looked like it was going to rain again.
"Let your people go to the inn, call the shopkeeper, and add a few more stoves to the guest rooms." Beilin said to Shi Songliang.
Shi Songliang no longer had a smile on his face, but he still commanded his subordinates behind him.
"My lord, it's getting dark, I'm afraid there will be a downpour for a while, let's go back to the inn." Shi Songliang didn't want to accompany us shopping anymore, and began to persuade us to go back to the inn.
Xuan Ling, Hongtu and Mei'er were at the inn, I was a little worried, afraid that I wouldn't be able to see them well, so I also looked at Beilin.
As a result, Shen Beilin had no intention of going back, but just said to Shi Songliang: "Didn't you want the patriarch of this sacrifice to investigate this matter for you?" ”
"Huh? Your Excellency, are you going to investigate? Shi Songliang's originally gloomy face instantly showed a touch of joy.
"Well, that's the Shrine, right?" He looked at the tall courtyard at the end of the street.
Shi Songliang nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, that's it, now, it's empty." ”
"Well, you call twenty or thirty of your subordinates to gather at the gate of the Shrine." With a command, he pulled me towards the temple.
I followed him, Shi Songliang ordered the people next to him, and hurriedly followed.
"Someone will be there in a moment." When he had finished speaking, he walked quickly in front of us and pushed open the door of the temple for us.
As soon as the door of the temple opened, I saw a sign engraved with the rules of their temple, and then, stepping into the threshold and walking inside, I saw that the front yard of the temple was in shambles.
The ritual utensils were all messily thrown on the ground, the wooden frame on the door was also missing, the paper window was broken, and a door was broken in half.
Anyway, there must have been a fight here.
Without waiting for us to ask, Shi Songliang made a gesture and said that the two spirit worshippers had fallen in the courtyard at that time, and there were no scars on their surfaces, and the cause of death had not been investigated.
"My lord, it must be a demon." Shi Songliang made a conclusion.
Beilin stared at the courtyard for a while, then walked to the hall of the Sacrifice Courtyard and carefully examined it for a while.
"My lord, in the entire sacrificial courtyard, only two corpses are lying in the courtyard, and in the rest of the place, no one was found, they all disappeared out of thin air." Shi Songliang was like a "tail", following behind Beilin.
After reading it, Beilin just asked Shi Songliang: "Are your people here?" ”
Shi Songliang was stunned, and hurriedly glanced outside the door of the Sacrifice Courtyard, his people were already standing outside the door at this moment.
"My lord, what are you calling these brothers for? Dig three feet into the ground to find the missing priests? Shi Songliang asked curiously.
"Go to Hefu." After Ming Beilin finished speaking, he told again: "When you arrive at He's mansion, you can talk to that old man and find a legitimate reason to let me walk around the courtyard." ”
"You are the priest of Sheng Jinglai, so they naturally have to cooperate." Shi Songliang immediately replied.
Beilin shook his head slightly: "I can't tell him my identity." ”
Shi Songliang heard Ming Beilin say this, and his cloudy eyes rolled for a while.
"You're trying to investigate secretly? But there is no need for this, the dead are all the relatives of Master He, they will definitely cooperate, there is no need to do more. Shi Songliang's words came to an abrupt end when he said this, because he saw that Beilin's face was already gloomy, so he immediately changed his words: "Everything, listen to the adults." ”
Only then did Beilin stride out, following behind the group of officials.
Hefu, in the westernmost part of Shi'an Town, we came all the way and walked for almost two teas.
And when I arrived in front of the gate of Hefu, I was shocked by the high-gate compound of Hefu.
I have to say that the house of the He family is no worse than the high-ranking families in Shengjing, and the left and right walls are not visible.
Shi Songliang said that the He family moved into this Shi'an town from outside, donated money and materials to the town, and also built this market, which is very famous in the town.
Even he, the pavilion chief, has to give the He family a few thin noodles.
After speaking, he coughed slightly, which can be regarded as telling Ming Beilin to talk to this He family master for a while, and be careful and polite.
Beilin didn't respond, I hurriedly replied "Okay", Shi Songliang trotted to the door of He Mansion, held the copper ring handle, and knocked on the door.
"Knock knock, knock knock!"
After knocking on the door for a long time, the sound of footsteps came from inside.
With a "squeak", the door of the house finally opened from the inside, and a thin-looking man in gray clothes poked his head out of it.
