Chapter 48: A thorough investigation of the palace ban
"Also, find another makeup girl who can paint ghost makeup."
Steward Lin listened to these orders in confusion, but when he saw Qin Pengpeng's calm expression on his face, he suppressed the suspicious look in his heart and responded.
"Okay, the little one must take care of this."
"Well, in the evening, you come to the main courtyard, and I will tell you something."
Qin Pengpeng got his assurance, then got up and Shi Shiran left.
Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.
If she doesn't make a deep impression on Meng and the others tonight, she won't be called Qin Pengpeng.
It's night.
Qin Pengpeng looked at the sky that had completely darkened, and looked at the big trees in the courtyard.
There was no wind in the courtyard, and the trees were not moving at all.
It seems that Wei Yan has not come yet.
Qin Pengpeng retracted his gaze, didn't think about it anymore, and quietly waited for the news from Steward Lin's side.
After a while, a small servant hurried in.
"Miss, there's movement on the other side of the wall. Listening to their voices, it seemed as if they were going to quietly climb the wall with a ladder and pour oil on us and set us on fire. Steward Lin asked you to hurry over, but he couldn't make up his mind. ”
"I see, take me there." Qin Pengpeng nodded, and a fierce color crossed his eyes.
After a short time, we reached the northwest corner.
I saw that there were ten ladders at intervals by the wall, and under each ladder there was a white-clothed guard of the Qin Mansion standing.
Through the dim lights around them, each of the guards could be seen wearing terrifying ghost makeup on their faces.
A gentle breeze blew, and the guards were dressed in white, and their faces were terrifying and gloomy.
From afar, it looks like a ghostly ghost floating from hell.
Qin Pengpeng was very satisfied with the picture he saw, touched his chin and nodded.
When Steward Lin in the corner saw her, his heart suddenly settled down, and he hurriedly walked over and reported in a low voice.
"The oil has been prepared on the other side of the wall, the ladder has been erected, and we are about to climb over the wall and pour oil. Miss, what are your plans? ”
Although the burning of the Qin Mansion sounded terrifying, now that they both knew each other's plans, they were also waiting in the corner, and the fire would never burn.
Therefore, he wanted to know what other plans Qin Pengpeng had for them to stay still.
"Don't worry, you call all the guards in the corner."
Qin Peng commanded.
Steward Lin hurriedly nodded in response, and then beckoned to the guards under the corner.
When I saw a group of white-clothed ghost-faced people gathered together and walked towards this side, my eyelids jumped fiercely, and I felt panicked.
If he hadn't known that this was the escort of their Qin Mansion or a group of living people, he would definitely have run away at this time.
It's just scary.
This evening, the eldest lady instructed him to let the group of guards wear ghost makeup and wear this white dress.
As soon as the night gets dark, they bring people to the corner of the wall.
After Qin Pengpeng saw people approaching, he ordered them to close their eyes.
Immediately, he pulled out a bottle of phosphor from his sleeve and sprinkled it in their faces.
In the next moment, I saw that the ten ghostly faces in front of me all emitted a faint green light.
Steward Lin looked at this scene, and Wei Buding shuddered.
Oh my God, it's terrible.
Qin Pengpeng ordered at this time: "You can climb the ladder now, remember, your feet should step on the top step, your body should be straight, and there should be no expression on your face." ”
In the end, the essence of a sentence is given.
"In short, it's all about pretending to be a ghost."
He turned his head and saw Qin Pengpeng's smiling expression, and sneered: "Forget it, the little one is afraid of ruining your business."
Qin Pengpeng didn't speak.
Steward Lin followed closely again.
"Lord Qin, they want to climb the wall and set fire, and you let people pretend to be ghosts to scare them, it's really a clever plan."
Qin Pengpeng glanced at him lightly and said, "Don't make sycophants, let's watch a good show." ”
Let's talk about Qin Jianye's side.
The old lady, Qin Jianye, Liu, and Qin Qingsi are all here.
There were several small men with torches around.
The family excitedly gathered around the old lady sitting in the chair, with a look of madness on her face, as if a grand ceremony was about to be held.
At this time, Liu Shi asked quite uneasily: "What should I do if this fire can't kill that little slut?" The Qin Mansion is so big, although this wall here is close to the main courtyard, but if we set fire here, the fire may not be able to burn through. ”
Qin Jianye choked, and couldn't help but think she was stupid.
"Burn down the entire Qin Mansion, too many people have died, our family will be in trouble at that time, of course we can't burn down the entire Qin Mansion in one go."
"Setting a fire in a corner is nothing but a loud noise. Taking advantage of the chaos in the Qin Mansion, I arranged for two people to go to the cheap girl's house and set her on fire, and I will definitely be able to burn her to death! ”
Qin Jianye's eyes were shining with a fierce light, and he had already arranged a scapegoat, even if he was found out at that time, he would have a way to get out.
"Alright, you guys climb to the other side of the wall and put oil on the fire."
Qin Jianye waved his hand, startling the order.
The little guys responded.
But in the next moment, someone suddenly screamed.
"Ahh Ghost! Ghost! ”
A maid looked at the white-clothed figure that suddenly appeared on the wall, and sat on the ground with her buttocks, constantly shrinking back.
When she shouted, everyone immediately looked up at the wall.
Tonight the night was unusually dark, and the sky was covered with dark clouds, and there was no moonlight.
In addition, this wall is extremely strong, and when the old lady and the others looked over, they saw several white ghosts floating on the wall, all with hideous faces and green light.
In an instant, a chill burst out of everyone's hearts, and the old lady's eyes widened even more, trembling and speechless.
"Are we going to do something bad, and the ghost has sent our souls to seduce us?"
A little guy with a torch asked, his legs trembling.
As soon as he said this, some of the people around him threw torches and fled like crazy.
"Help!"
The scene instantly became chaotic, and no one cared about the old lady anymore.
Liu's legs were already weak, and he could only shout: "You all come back!" ”
Qin Qingsi barely regained his senses at this time, and when he saw that the ghost on the wall did not move, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind.
She hurriedly shouted, "Don't run away! We were deceived, it must be Qin Pengpeng who asked people to pretend to be gods and ghosts! If it's really a ghost, will you float on the wall and do nothing?! ”
As soon as she shouted, she suddenly stopped, and looked back.
Although they were still uncertain, the fear in their hearts had finally faded a lot.
The old lady's face barely recovered a trace of blood, but she was even more angry.
She didn't expect Qin Pengpeng to know about their plan at all, she only thought that Qin Pengpeng also planned to murder them tonight.
"This!"
Qin Jianye obviously thought of it with her, and said angrily: "Fortunately, you let me do it tonight, otherwise I'm afraid I'll get into the way of that cheap girl!" ”
"And do you want to set it on fire tonight?"
Liu lowered his voice and asked worriedly.
"Put! Why don't you put it! "It was the old lady who spoke.
She contorted her old face and stared at the ghost on the wall, her tone extremely vicious.
"She found someone to pretend to be a ghost to scare us, and we just planned it, pretending not to know that it was her poisonous plan, and threw the torch directly on it under the name of 'setting fire to drive away ghosts'."
Taking advantage of the fact that her people were scared away, the family quickly climbed the ladder to pour oil! Burn them! ”
When Liu heard this, his heart suddenly became steady.
"Mother is wise."
After speaking, she raised her head to look at the immobile white shadow on the wall, spat hatefully, lowered her voice and said proudly: "The little slut must not want to lift a stone and hit his own foot."
However, in the next moment, Liu's eyes widened, and his pupils constricted to the extreme.
"Ghosts! It's really a ghost! ”
She grabbed Qin Jianye's arm, and her voice trembled.
"What's crazy!" Qin Jianye was pinched by her, and threw her away extremely unhappily.
But at this moment, Qin Qingsi's gasping sound sounded in his ears again.
He suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, and hurriedly looked over.
I saw a few blue-purple ghost fires suddenly rise on the wall, making the faces of the group of ghost-faced people more and more gloomy.
"Ho Ho Ho ......"
An eerie laugh rang out.
The old lady's face turned pale, and a stench wafted out.
Immediately after, she rolled her eyes and fainted with her mouth crooked, not knowing whether she was dead or alive.
Qin Qingsi barely kept his composure and said, "It must be fake......
Before the words fell, a gust of wind blew, and the ghosts and fires floated down the wall.
There were shouts of exclamation, and the subordinates fled in all directions.
Liu also screamed and fainted.
Qin Jianye quickly grabbed the two subordinates who ran past him, and shouted with trembling lips: "Hurry up and run with the old lady!" ”
The subordinates ran away with the people on the left and the right.
Qin Jianye shouted Qin Qingsi, and the two of them dragged the Liu family on the ground like a sack.
Finally, everyone gathers in the hall where the idol is enshrined.
"Ask the immortals to bless you...... Immortal bless ......"
It was a long time before someone in the room shuddered.
"The ghost fire doesn't seem to be following."
Qin Jianye hurriedly ran to the closed door, looked out through the gap, and saw that it was calm outside, and there were no white shadows and ghost fires.
He suddenly fell to the ground as if he had survived the catastrophe.
"Luckily, luckily ......"
Qin Qingsi also unloaded the tense strength on his body, his legs weakened, and he hurriedly held on to the pillar behind him.
At this time, a maid panicked: "The old lady seems to be dying!" ”
"What?!"
There was chaos in the house again.
They just looked at Qin Peng with a terrible face and grinned at Qin Pengpeng.
"Miss, how are the little ones doing?"
A very shallow smile appeared on Qin Pengpeng's lips, and everyone looked in a trance.
"Processing money."
Hearing these three words, the people instantly came back to their senses, and hurriedly cheered, and said one after another: "Thank you, Miss." ”
Steward Lin also licked his face at this time and came up.
Qin Pengpeng glanced at him amusedly, and said as he wished: "You also process money." ”
Steward Lin was so happy that his already small eyes narrowed into a slit.
"The eldest lady is generous."
Qin Pengpeng was tired of hearing this sentence from his mouth, glanced at him, and said, "Arrange for a few more people to watch in the corner of the wall all night tonight, just in case." ”
Steward Lin hurriedly responded: "Yes." ”
"Alright, move the ladder away, and you all go back to rest."
The ten guards were immediately ordered to move the ladder.
Steward Lin was still standing beside Qin Pengpeng and did not leave, and his expression was speechless.
Qin Peng said: "If you have something to say, say it."
Steward Lin looked at the look on her face and asked, "Miss, what's going on with that ghost fire?" ”
God knows, when the ghost fire came out, he was startled.
When he turned his head to look at Qin Pengpeng's backbone, he didn't see anyone, and his legs were weak at that time.
Later, after thinking about it, I am afraid that this was also the movement made by this ancestor, so I calmed down.
Qin Peng said: "It's just a trick." ”
The rest, I won't say much.
People in the 21st century basically know how ghost fire works, but this world is especially afraid of ghost power chaos.
So, when she decided to teach the old lady and the others a good lesson, she immediately thought of creating a ghost fire.
Sure enough, it worked out pretty well.
On the side, when the housekeeper heard such an answer, he wanted to ask in detail, but after all, he didn't have the courage to bother Qin Pengpeng, so he retired and left.
After Qin Pengpeng returned to the main courtyard alone, he found a figure sitting alone in the courtyard, and couldn't help but be stunned.
