Chapter 23: The Trap

As usual, the heroic scenes of saving people from the children of several family officials are only three incense sticks. After the teahouse came out that day, they went back to their homes and never gathered outside again.

Then a few people went to and from the school hall and returned home as usual, as if there was no such thing as Lu Ziming being falsely imprisoned. In the entire academy, except for Master Shen, who was ill, the other masters still taught as usual.

It's just because Mr. Hong is a lonely and widowed old master, with no children and no daughters, and the academy is handling the future. The school is a half-day course before the funeral of Master Hong, and the remaining half-day time can be used for students to worship Master Hong in batches, of course, there are also some volunteers to wake the spirit, but most of them are those young masters who are helping to keep the spirit.

"The two of them have been doing nothing as usual for the past two days?"

Ning Daoshen looked at the excerpt with some surprise, although he was not optimistic about the two children, but the lack of movement was also a little unexpected. Especially on that day, although Su Man did not agree, but the posture was clearly decided to find the murderer within three days.

In the end, he was just a boastful guy, Ning Daoshen pulled the corners of his mouth slightly and sneered. It doesn't matter, one more day, and Shuntianfu Yin's patience should be finished.

"Ahem, cough, in fact, ......" Tang Hongyi reported truthfully with some shame, "My idiot went to their house yesterday to pay a thousand taels, and was found by my sister that he had been dealt with by the family law." ”

"A thousand taels? Is he trying to buy Suncheon Mansion Yin? Ning Daoshen sneered, and the children of the family also had those tricks.

Seeing Tang Hongyi's expression of eating flies, Ning Daoshen frowned, felt a little funny, and said, "Didn't he want to buy the official?" ”

"Then he wouldn't dare!" Tang Hongyi immediately defended himself, this adult was the imperial history of arresting officials for corruption and fraud before, and he acted ruthlessly and resolutely. Bribing him would be self-defeating.

"Uh...... That kid gave this thousand taels to go to the black market to find someone to rob the prisoner. ”

It's better to report some things early than to be found later, especially if a fool is looking for a master with such fanfare, it is really a good thing to be more than successful.

Hearing this, Ning Daoshen was stunned for a moment and then shook his body and chuckled. It seems that he really overestimated those children, so stupid and reckless. That Su Man looked a little clever, but in the end it was Su Cheng's reckless cub, brave and unscrupulous.

Ning Daoshen shook his head slightly and turned the jade wrench on his thumb, but the girl's words that day made him hesitate a little in the past few days. This little ghost in prison has a temper very similar to himself when he was young. Stupidity is also stupid, but the courage to face death is indeed rare.

Zhao Jia is dead, and Zhao Yi, Zhao Bing, Zhao Ding, but what about him? Looking at it, most of the officials in the court are children of wealthy families, with wealthy backgrounds, there are really a few students from poor families, and there are very few who still have integrity after being officials for several years.

----------------------------------------------

"Tomorrow is the last day, can you tell me what you have come up with?"

Song Ci looked at Su Man and Li Yuanfang, who were a little restless, as if they had found a way to tacit understanding that day. It's just that they didn't tell everyone how to do it.

There was a faint sense of loss in Song Ci's heart, once upon a time several people were so close to each other, and the most important thing was to know each other's thoughts. I don't know when the relationship and tacit understanding between the two made her feel that she was as completely unattainable as Huang Hongxuan and them. I feel like I've been left behind by them.

"Let's talk about it tomorrow after our Huang Ban pays tribute to Master Hong, and Yuan Fang and I will go to clean the library after a while, if there is nothing to do, we will leave first."

After Su Man and Li Yuanfang glanced at each other, they both decided that it would be better not to tell Song Ci first.

"But if you can't find the murderer tomorrow, Lu Ziming will be sent back to the Shuntianfu prison, didn't you say that he will be more auspicious when he goes back" Song Ci frowned and looked at Su Man, who was not very concerned, and said a little puzzled

"Xiaoman, do you really want to save him?"

"We're just doing our best to obey the fate of God" When the trap is done, wait for the fish to take the bait, and fishing is not in a hurry.

"Do you obey the destiny of heaven to find your classmates to burn some paper money and relics for Master Hong?" Song Ci was a little unwilling: "Rely on this method to let Master Hong tell you who is the murderer?" Xiaoman, isn't this method too perfunctory? ”

Seeing that Su Man didn't answer, Song Ci turned his head to look at Li Yuanfang and said, "Yuanfang, don't you think her method is feasible?" ”

"Xiaoci, we have our own considerations, you just need to do as usual."

Hearing this, Song Ci got up a little angry and didn't want to look at the two of them, and left the class with a booklet. She originally asked them to sign the petition for Lu Ziming, but now, they have a way anyway.

In the end, she is best friends, and she naturally understands that the two of them are clearly trying to keep her out of the matter at this moment. My own consideration is nothing more than that I feel that I am not so credible.

At noon the next day, the downtown is the time when business is booming. Li Yuanfang asked people to go to the largest hardware store in the capital to find the locksmith, saying that their students found a small rosewood box left by their late master when they were cleaning in the library of the academy.

Inside was the master's previous reading codex, and there was a very delicate brocade box, which should be a high-grade Luban lock. One of the locksmiths they approached said he was not good at his craft and could not open it by violence.

So Li Yuanfang came to the lock king to help see if they could open it without damaging the brocade box, and they wanted to see if the things here were to be buried or burned directly to the deceased master.

It's just that King Suo happened to be invited to open the lock at a house outside a household in the city, and he couldn't come back until about an hour. Li Yuanfang asked people to leave a message, and several students in their yellow class took the initiative to ask Ying to stay in the mourning hall of Hong Fuzi tonight, and after the lock king came back, he could go directly to the Hong Fuzi mourning hall in Bailu Academy to open the lock.

It's just that when it gets dark, the lock king doesn't appear, and Su Man knows that the prey has been baited.

That night, a few students led by the Huang class stayed to guard the spirit of Master Hong, after all, they were only teachers who had been teaching for a year, and they were not the elders in the house, and where were these children of rich eunuchs who were the masters of guarding the spirits with their hearts.

After burning some paper money and clothes and giving them to the master, they sat around and chatted. In order to prevent everyone from getting sleepy, Su Man took the lead in telling ghost stories, and her voice was controlled just right, and the stories were told vividly. Moreover, the wind in the mourning hall sets off the terrifying atmosphere of the horror story just right.

"In the end, the woman regained consciousness, was no longer under the control of the female ghost, and left the village to live a happy life."

At the end of the story, I heard the sound of grinding my teeth and trembling in the mourning hall.

"Su ...... Su Man, so the female ghost is really dead this time, right? ”

Huang Hongxuan and Fang Zijian snuggled up to each other. In the end, they are two children, who usually pretend to be not afraid of heaven and earth in the academy, and they are not afraid of ghosts.

"Who knows, it's not a female ghost, it's a pen fairy? Someone called her and gave her her life, and she would come out naturally! ”

Su Man admired the nervous and scared expressions of the children, and was very satisfied, this is the fun of telling ghost stories.

"Who...... Who will call her with their lives! Song Ci also hugged Li Yuanfang and trembled, Li Yuanfang helplessly patted her back shoulder to soothe, she said to Su Man, "You're almost done!" ”

Her eyes glanced at the ornaments that were constantly shaking under the red rope by the windless wall, and gave Su Man a look. Then I saw a person quietly walking into the mourning hall.

Seeing this, Su Man smiled slightly and brought the candle close to him, and the candlelight from the bottom right and upward illumination made her facial features obscure. Facing Huang Hongxuan and Song Ci and the others

"The pen fairy was first summoned by the bullying girl in the academy. What are people who haven't bullied their classmates afraid of? ”

After that, Su Man pointed to a place behind Huang Hongxuan and Fang Zi Fitness, "Who are you?" ”

Hearing this, Huang Hongxuan and Fang Zijian slowly turned around and saw a beautiful woman standing not far behind them, the woman's face looked very pale under the candlelight, they had never seen this person, and when did this person enter the mourning hall?

And this situation, coupled with the atmosphere that Su Man had rendered before, instantly pierced the quiet night sky of the academy with two terrible screams.

Huang Hongxuan and Fang Zijian shouted ghosts! Female ghost! Almost crying, he ran out of the mourning hall.

"Who are you, you?"

Song Ci couldn't run with her legs soft, she hid behind Li Yuanfang, watching the woman walk towards them, getting closer and closer.

"Okay, okay, don't play" Su Man didn't scare Song Ci anymore, and asked the beautiful woman, "Shunniang, why did you come here?" ”

"The general and his wife know that you are keeping a vigil for your master today, and the special maid will send some vegetarian points." Liang Shunniang really took a food box from behind her, and her body trembled slightly.

Su Man immediately got up and took the food box, and pressed the other party's trembling hand

"Don't you mention that I don't feel it yet, I'm really hungry right now. But after all, this is the Master's mourning hall, and it's not good to eat here. ”

After that, Su Man snapped his fingers into the air and said, "Let's go, let's go to the canteen to eat some pastries and come back!" The night is still long. ”

After the noisy children were gone, a dark wind blew in the mourning hall, blowing out the candles on the desk. In the darkness, a dark shadow flew down from the beam, and then the door of the mourning hall was blown shut by a wind.

The black shadow lurked against the wall, did not move, and after hearing a few children not far away snatching food and making noise, the man directly stepped forward and approached the coffin to reach out for the box, and he had already observed on the beam, the brocade box controlled by the Luban lock was now placed in the coffin of Hong Fuzi near the head.

It's just that he touched around the direction of Hong Fuzi's head, but he didn't touch anything, but his finger was cut by a coffin nail. The black shadow frowned, and after he took out a fire fold from his bosom and opened it to blow, a red dot lit up.

As soon as he raised his eyes, he saw Master Hong in the coffin with a smile on his face, just the angle of the light, and the old master's smile looked particularly terrifying.

The black shadow gasped, and then he noticed that Hong Fuzi seemed to move, and he took a step back slightly. There have been countless killings, and this time it feels the weirdest. After he calmed down, he looked inside the coffin again.

The brocade box had always been there, and he laughed at himself, people who did this kind of work were actually afraid for a moment. He immediately reached out and grabbed the brocade box, while his hand was also grabbed by another hand inside the coffin.

The black shadow was stunned, and in a flash of light, the two exchanged hands. In the darkness, the people outside saw the faint shadows swaying there, just as they watched the leaves outside the house sway at night.

The hand speed of the two was amazing, and the black shadow came out with a chain of eagle grabbing, grabbing and aiming at the direction of Su Dong's five organs in the coffin. Su Dong pushed away the body of Hong Fuzi, resisted the grasp with his fists, and defused the opponent's attack with his fists.

Only the sound of the two of them making moves could be heard in the air, and the moves in the dark were all fatal attacks. For a while, the two turned out to be equal, but Su Dong was better at leg skills. He kicked his leg and flew out of the coffin.

There was a loud bang in the mourning hall, and Su Man said faintly to the other children, "The bait has finally been baited." ”

She stretched and walked to the clearing to set off a fireworks from Dali Temple. A red cloud-piercing arrow flower in the air, Ning Daoshen nearby smiled slightly after seeing it, this girl really has some little skills.

He glanced at Tang Hongyi, and the other party immediately waved his hand knowingly, and a group of guards over there immediately rushed to the White Deer Academy from outside.

Ji Yechen frowned as he looked at the team of Dali Temple guards outside the window, he turned his head to look at Bai Qirui and said, "It's really a trick!" ”

Bai Qirui looked at the tea scripture in his hand, pursed his mouth, and said, "What if you know it's a trap, will the one in your house send someone there?" ”

Hearing this, Ji Yechen was silent, he knew that he couldn't stop that person, this time he knew that it was a bureau set up by Su Man, and he also told that person not to act rashly, but ......

"Don't worry, since it's Deadpool, if you are caught, you won't be left alive."

In the White Deer Academy, a black shadow was kicked out of the mourning hall and fell directly to the ground motionless. Su Dong jumped out of the house and patted his feet, looking at the black shadow on the ground with a cold face. Looking at it like that, the difference in strength between the two is quite big.

Su Man's eyes narrowed slightly, this person was definitely not Ji Yechen, I don't know why Su Man breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. After all, he was poisoned by Gu and was somewhat involved with Ji Yechen, and he didn't know if there would be other side effects.

At this time, Huang Hongxuan saw that Tang Hongyi had brought people in, and some of the treasures immediately ran forward

"Uncle! Look, I've caught the murderer! ”

"Idiot"

At this time, the black shadow who was crawling on the ground immediately pulled out the dagger in his boots and pressed it against Huang Hongxuan's neck and said, "Whoever dares to approach me, I will kill him."

"Uncle, help me!"

Things happened so fast, Su Dong didn't expect an idiot to run over. I have repeatedly explained before that no matter what happens, we must stay away from them, this is the security area that Su Dong can protect them.

"Isn't it time yet?" Su Man looked at the hourglass, but he wasn't very worried.

"It's coming!" Li Yuanfang saw the last grain of sand in the hourglass fall out and smiled slightly.

When everyone in Dali Temple looked at Tang Shaoqing and didn't know how to deal with this sudden situation, the black shadow suddenly fainted, and fell straight down without warning.
