Chapter 269: Shadowless Palm
The young man was suspicious, and gently beat his horse and began to walk along the courtyard wall.
After walking for a while, he found a problem, this courtyard wall is oval-shaped, and as if there is no end, there is no end to it, and there is no back door to be found.
The back door of the Xin family's old mansion is very eye-catching in the daytime. Because there is a small river connected to one side of the back door, the townspeople often take a dip in the river water in the summer.
But the young man drove away for a long time, and he didn't see the back door, let alone hear the sound of the river flowing slowly.
The ghost of the Xin family's old mansion is dangerous enough.
The young man let out a sigh of relief, the dog's blood and rune paper could no longer suppress this ghost, and if he wanted to get a thousand taels of silver tickets, he had to take a detour and go back.
The horse lamp shone on the gloomy courtyard wall, and the young man was emboldened by the 1,000 taels of silver tickets, so he grabbed the horse and began to rush back.
The hazy night fog, because of the bloody smell of dog blood, dissipated a lot, and there were snowy lanterns, and soon, the young man's carriage gradually left the oval courtyard wall.
What's even stranger is that it didn't take the young man a quarter of an hour for him to see a faint exit.
"Whew!"
The young man struggled to control the cold sweat dripping down his face, and the creepy fear.
Damn, there really are ghosts.
He was very careful to turn his horse to the avenue at the entrance of the town. The avenue at the entrance of the town, because of the very bright lights of the surrounding shops, calmed the young man's sudden beating heart a little.
The carriage left the path, and the young man secretly looked back down the road, and saw a thick night fog rolling over the path, and in the faint haze, there seemed to be a few lanterns flickering.
Oh my god.
The young man's hair exploded, and he quickly retracted his head and hit his horse towards the town.
The old house of the Xin family is in the west of the town, and the young man has been walking for more than an hour, and some of the shops in the town have been closed. Shengtai Cloth Village also hung up the door panel and closed the door.
There are fewer shops on the street, and there are many fewer townspeople to buy things.
No one noticed that the young man's carriage was rushing in the direction of the Xin family's old house.
When the carriage was halfway there, the young man kept an eye on it. He first drove the carriage back to the three alleys of his house, and handed over the more than 900 taels of silver tickets on his body to his mother.
The mother stood at the door and was stunned for a while, the son had never taken so many silver tickets. Seeing the mysterious panic on his face, he didn't dare to ask, so he carefully picked it up and touched him. The rune paper was still there, and the son didn't have any problems, so he said, "Be careful." ”
"Hmm."
The young man nodded, waved his hand to his mother, and whipped his horse out of the alley.
In any case, with these silver taels at home, he will not have to worry about the future. T
He has two younger brothers, one is eleven and the other is eight. These more than 900 taels of silver are enough to support their parents and grandfather for a few years. At that time, the two younger brothers had grown up and could earn money.
What is he worried about, even if he loses his life, this trip is worth it.
What's more, he may not lose his life, but he can get back another thousand taels of silver.
One thousand taels of silver turned into a donkey, and the young man who pushed him didn't even have a nervous heart, so he made up his mind to drive the carriage to the Xin family's old house.
At the gate of the Xin family's old house, Hua San stretched his neck and was almost sore, only to see a carriage rushing over.
When the young man saw that someone answered at the door of the house, his heart calmed down. He jumped out of the carriage and followed Hua San to meet Hua Lan.
Hua Lan's hard work allowed the spring silkworm to clean up the east and things wing, arrange everyone's accommodation, and just sat down to drink tea after dinner.
The taste of this tea is a little bitter, there is no way, there is no better tea in the town, it is good to have tea and drink.
The young man came for more than an hour, which made her breathe a sigh of relief, and finally a thousand taels of silver were not wasted.
The spring silkworm began to distribute the bedding on the carriage to the various rooms, and Hua San led the young man to the study to meet Hua Lan.
There are a lot of people in the study.
King Shou'an has always been full of interest, and Jin Se is no exception, of course, the peony can't be shaken off.
Fortunately, the study room of the Xin family is very large, not to mention these few people, it is enough for a dozen people to open a patient. It is said to be a study, but it is actually a small hospitality room.
The young man has always heard the mystery of the Xin family's old mansion, but in the end he has only heard of it, and has never really seen it, and as soon as he enters the study, his heart is beating.
Ouch! What kind of room is this, how weird? Why is it that everyone is doing a position that is full of ghosts? is like a city god hall, and then look at yourself, the whole black and white impermanence is an unjust ghost.
The young man's terrifying eyes made Hua Lan have doubts in her heart?
She looked carefully around the room and where a few people were sitting, and didn't find anything special, so she smiled and said to the young man, "Let's sit down first." If you have anything to say, sit down and say it. ”
Hua Lan has no concept of dignity and inferiority, but under the eyes of the majestic King Shou'an, where does the young man dare to sit, trembling and waving his hand again and again: "The young man is polite, the small one can be done by standing, and it will be done by standing." ”
said that he was standing, the young man's two legs were fighting all the time, and he had the heart to kneel down at the moment, his head was buzzing vigorously, and he looked at Hua Lan in horror, and he forgot all the words he wanted to say.
Hua Lan looked strange, the young man was fine when he just entered the door, why was he scared like this in the blink of an eye? Is there something scary in the room?
In the study, except for a large case in front of which she was sitting, there were only a few armchairs made of golden silk nanmu around the room. King Shou'an's face has always been cold, and there is nothing strange about it, and there is nothing strange about Jinse on the side smiling gently. Even Peony, who was standing behind him, had a soft face in the light, although he still had a stiff stup, and there was nothing very special in the end.
Why is the boy afraid to be like this?
Because there are so many people? In the study, two bright glass lamps were lit. The soft lighting illuminates every corner of the study, and the warm tones reveal a bit of tranquility.
Hua Lan's sense of smell is quite sensitive, and there is no smell of impurities in the air in the study.
That's weird, why should the guy be afraid?
At this time, the spring silkworm had already finished the covers of each room and walked in, holding a plate of refreshments in her hand. There were two plates of pastries on the plate, one for King Shou'an, and the other for the young man.
"I didn't eat, just sit down and talk while eating."
Hua Lan signaled, and Peony hurriedly came over to move the chair.
The chair was placed behind the young man, and there was just a coffee table next to him, and the spring silkworm put down the pastry plate, and then walked to the side of King Shou'an and put down another plate of pastry.
The young man kept watching the spring silkworm enter the door, his eyes were on the ground, and a long shadow of the spring silkworm flickered in front of his eyes, and the movement of reaching out was like hitting him in the face.
"Smack!"
He felt that he had really been slapped in the face, and the spring silkworm walked to the side of King Shou'an, reached out to put down the pastry plate, and just cast a long shadow, and this arm "Bang!" He was hit on the right side of his face.
"Smack!"
The young man's underneath was immediately wet, and he was slapped in the face again.
"There are ghosts, there are ghosts!"
The young man's soul flew away, and he didn't even have the strength to run while covering his cheeks, so he closed his eyes in fright, and sat down on the ground, screaming loudly.
"There are ghosts, there are ghosts! Mom, there's a ghost, help! ”
