Chapter 88
When the prefect arrived with people, he saw people in black all over the ground, including two old men. Lined up in turn, neatly and neatly.
After seeing the prefect, Cheng An stepped forward quickly and told him Yu Sen's merits, "These people are not dead, they just fainted, they are all subdued by my eighth junior brother." ”
The prefect glanced at Yu Sen, who stood quietly beside Ji Ran, with a very harmless expression on his face. To be honest, the prefect didn't quite believe Cheng An's words.
However, they also found Bai Wei after all. So, he waved his hand and said, "Okay, I know, take them all back." After a night of traveling, you are also tired, go back early to rest. ”
This time, they finally got into the carriage.
Bai Wei was sent back by the prefect, and the doctor was also sent to Bai Mansion.
Ji Ran wanted to study with the doctor what happened to Bai Wei, but she was too sleepy to survive.
A dreamless night. Early the next morning, Ji Ran heard the news that Yao Min had been arrested.
"She wants to see you by name."
Ji Ran held the porridge bowl and asked puzzledly, "Why did she see me?" ”
The prefect looked at Ji Ran's face and said, "She said that you are beautiful." ”
Ji Ran immediately understood what Yao Min meant, she put down the porridge bowl, looked at the prefect and said seriously: "My lord, we still have to hurry, so we won't go to see her." ”
"She said that she would only explain everything until she saw you."
Ji Ran sighed, "It's just that no matter what, I have to see her, right?" ”
The prefect looked at her and nodded slightly.
"Eighth Senior Brother, you go with me." Yao Min's crazy woman was so terrible that she couldn't resist it alone.
"That's right, I'll go to the Bai family to have a look. That way, you don't have to go there. ”
"Senior Brother Xie. You must remember to be more detailed. ”
"I see, be careful."
After breakfast, the two of them were taken to the prison.
Yao Min's posture is still calm, as if she is not in prison, but just a different place to live.
"Miss Ji, you're here." She said softly.
Looking at her delicate face now, thinking that this was made with the blood of many people, Ji Ran suddenly regretted that he had eaten breakfast and came over immediately.
"Boss Yao, if you have something to say, we're all here to listen."
Yao Min looked at Ji Ran's face and slowly raised his hand, and Ji Ran silently took a step back.
"Miss Ji is still young, of course she won't understand my thoughts. How many years can a woman's beauty last? After the age of thirty, no amount of powder can cover the wrinkles at the corners of the eyes. Yao Min pressed the corner of his eyes and said, "That person, just because I am old, he doesn't want me anymore and marries a woman younger than me." ”
Yao Min looked at Ji Ran and sighed: "Her appearance is not as good as Miss Ji's, let alone me." But she was young, her skin was white and tender, and she didn't have the slightest wrinkle. He said he didn't want to see my wrinkled face, as long as my best look remained in his heart. ”
Although poor people must have something to hate, Ji Ran can't have a trace of pity for Yao Min. Just for the sake of her beauty, so many people have to be sacrificed, and those who die because of her, they are about to get married. Because of her, everything is gone.
"He doesn't like you, why don't you go find someone who likes you? Birth, old age, sickness and death, common things in the world, no one will escape. People who really like you don't care about a wrinkle on your face. That man doesn't love you at all, and you took his lies as an oath, which is outrageously wrong. Later, in order to maintain his beauty, he killed innocents, which was even more wrong. ”
Ji Ran looked at Yao Min's eyes and said seriously: "Boss Yao, I used to envy your beauty. But now, I just think it's terrible, you really shouldn't have killed so many people for your own selfish desires. ”
Yao Min covered her face with a fan and laughed, "When you have wrinkles, you will know how important appearance is to a woman." ”
Ji Ran looked at her coldly and said, "If everyone is your idea, then no one in this world will be able to live." ”
Yao Min looked at Ji Ran and said with a look of pity: "It's a pity that those things are gone." If the thing was still there, Miss Ji wouldn't have said such a thing. ”
Yao Min looked at Ji Ran with a smile, and there was a hint of malice in his smile, "Do you know what they said after they knew that they could stay young forever?" They said they didn't want to go back to their parents, and they all volunteered to stay with me. ”
Ji Ran said coldly: "Then you must have lied to them." ”
Yao Min chuckled lightly and said, "Miss Ji, you have to protect your face, I like it very much." ”
Ji Ran only then remembered that she hadn't handed over those cheeks yet.
"Since they stayed with you, why did you take their faces off?"
Yao Min gently knocked on the fan and said, "It turns out that you have seen it all." I said I wanted them to stay at their best, and I did it for them. ”
"What the hell did you give them to eat?" Ji Ran asked.
"Nature is good for them, it will make their blood taste better and it will keep my beauty longer."
Ji Ran suddenly realized: "That's why you planted so many flowers in the yard to refine spices to cover up the smell of blood on your body, right?" ”
"They're good, aren't they?" Yao Min said.
"Yes, but you won't need it anymore." Ji Ran kindly reminded her: "The prefect has decided to burn all those flowers. ”
Yao Min didn't care much and said, "Rude people will only do this rude thing." ”
"Boss Yao, I'm curious where you got those two old men?"
Yao Min fiddled with his nails and chuckled, "There is a beautiful face, who can't find it?" ”
"Boss Yao still doesn't seem to plan to tell the truth."
"I'm telling the truth, and if you don't believe it, you won't be telling the truth, and I have nothing to say."
Ji Ran took a deep breath and said, "Boss Yao, it's a pleasure to meet you." You go ahead and I won't bother. ”
Yao Min hooked the corners of his mouth, looked at Ji Ran, and said meaningfully: "Miss Ji, there are more women pursuing beauty than you think, and you can't stop all these things." ”
"It's better to give it a try, Boss Yao just tried it at first, right?"
Yao Min looked at Ji Ran approvingly and said, "I really like you very much." ”
After walking out of the prison, Ji Ran took a few deep breaths. She looked at Yu Sen and said, "Yao Min is really a crazy woman. "If she were to be replaced, leave the exquisite little building, and become a prisoner of the stairs, she would definitely go crazy.
The prefect removed all the charges against Yu Sen, and not only that, but he also gave them a sum of money.
"You should not know, don't tell the third senior brother, you know?"
Yu Sen looked at Ji Ran with an embarrassed expression, he wouldn't lie.
"If the third senior brother goes to buy wine, you will be unlucky, you can do it yourself."
Cheng An came back and asked about the money.
Yu Sen didn't tell the truth for the first time.
Cheng An cursed in a low voice: "That stingy prefect, we helped him so much, he didn't even give us a penny." ”
"That's it, that's it." Ji Ran said on the side.
"By the way, Third Senior Brother, how is Miss Bai? It's not a big deal, right? ”
"It's not a big deal, the doctor has already seen it. They gave her a lot of supplements, and some side things. It will make her uncomfortable for a few days, but it will not be life-threatening. ”
Ji Ran breathed a sigh of relief, at least they saved Bai Wei.
"The prefect said that Yang Zhutou went to the Huo family, so he won't come to see us off." Ji Ran said.
"It's okay if you don't come, okay, it's time for us to go." He turned his head to look at Yu Sen and said, "Remember, if you go to the hotel in the future, you will need two rooms." ”
"Got it." Yu Sen bowed his head and said.
"Let's go, let's go find Ah Yan."

Micro swifts fly in double flight.
Liyan had already handed over Zhou Yue to Tianyilou, and Tianyilou also promised to take good care of him. Liyan decided to take a good nap on this drizzly afternoon, and wait for her to wake up and talk about other things.
When there was a knock on the door, Liyan decided that no matter who was outside, she would beat him up.
"You're just leaving?"
Looking at the official errand in front of him, he didn't know what to do for a moment. She thought about it carefully, she had only been in the city for half a day, and she had never been anywhere else except for the first floor of the day. It shouldn't be looking for her, maybe it's just a duplicate name.
"I am, what's the matter with you?"
The official nodded and said, "Luo Minghe steals, gathers crowds to make trouble, and fights in the streets, and is now in the state capital prison." ”
"Lorming River?"
"Yes, he told us to come to you."
"Okay, I'll go with you to him."
Xuan Nian followed behind her, and the officials on the side frowned when they saw this.
"He's the younger brother of Luo Minghe." Liyan pointed to Liyan and said.
There are still a lot of prisoners in the prison, and although Luo Minghe is charged with many crimes, they are not serious crimes, so he is locked up at the outermost.
"Ah Yan, are you here?" Luo Minghe looked at Liyan and smirked.
Li Yan looked at the drunken man in the cell in front of him, and his face was incredulous, he was so drunk in broad daylight. Is he reluctant to leap around?
"Come, come, let me introduce you, this is my brother, Chu Yi." After a hiccup, he continued: "The two of us hit it off at first sight, and we were so happy to have a good time. ”
Li Yan looked at the man who was held in Luo Minghe's arms, his face was red, and he obviously drank too much.
Leaving her mouth and holding her forehead, she said that she didn't know Luo Minghe, is it okay?
"Brother, when we get out, we'll continue to drink."
"Okay."
Li Yan rolled his eyes at the two of them, and was about to pay the money to redeem Luo Minghe.
"Why so many?"
"Aren't the two of them together?"
"Of course not, you'll have to find his friends and family."
"But, Luo Minghe said that they were together, and he said that you would pay their money together."
Liyan gritted his teeth and handed over the money of both people.
"I have someone on the first floor of the day, I can ask them for help."
Chu Yi on the side smirked: "Okay." ”
looked at the two of them speechlessly, one Xuan Nian is enough trouble, don't pick up another fool.
However, soon, Liyan found out that Chu Yi was really drunk. And, when he's drunk, he'll just say yes.
"You go jump into the river."
"Okay."
Now she was even more speechless, of course, she was more curious, where Luo Minghe picked up such a person.
Because there was one more person, Liyan had to open another room for the two of them.
After throwing them on the bed, they left.
was so troubled by Luo Minghe, Liyan suddenly fell asleep. She took out the map and studied it carefully, and she sighed as she listened to the sound of rain outside the window. At this rate, she doesn't know when she will be able to get to the capital.
There is no news of Luo Minghe's dream lover, and Xuan Nian's identity has not been clarified, and there is no way to get rid of him. Now, there is another friend Luo Minghe just met.
Why, she couldn't have made it easier. She wanted to kill directly in the capital and kill the old horseman of Chaoyue.
Luo Minghe woke up, and it was already three o'clock in the morning. Looking at the unfamiliar room, he thought for a moment that he was in a brothel. Zero Long Literature Network
Rubbing the corners of his forehead, he remembered that he seemed to be drunk, and then he was put in prison and then rescued by Liyan.
Thinking of leaving, he hurriedly got up and went out.
Seeing the thick man on the outer bed, he was slightly stunned. Then I remembered that this person seemed to be the one who drank with him, called ...... Chu Yi came.
Luo Minghe took a deep breath and knocked softly on the door of Liyan's room.
"Enter."
"Ah Yan, I didn't mean to."
Li Yan put the book in his hand on the table, looked at Luo Minghe quietly, and said seriously: "When do you want to drink, it's none of my business." But you drank and asked me to pay for you and your friends, and that's about me. ”
She tilted her head to look behind Luo Minghe and said, "What about your friend?" Haven't woken up yet? ”
"We've only known each other for a short time, and he's not technically my friend."
"We haven't known each other for a long time, we can drink together, we can steal things together, and we can beat people for him." Liyan nodded and said, "I also want a friend like this who has only known each other for a short time." ”
"It's because I'm ...... I drank too much. ”
Li Yan lowered his face coldly and said, "Call your friend, we should discuss the issue of compensation now." ”
Luo Minghe hurriedly returned to the room, looking at Chu Yi, who was still asleep, he scratched his head. Pushed him head-on.
"Brother Chu, it's time to get up."
Chu Yi opened his eyes in a daze, looked at Luo Minghe's big face close at hand, reacted extremely quickly, and directly punched him.
Luo Minghe covered his eyes and looked at Chu Yi helplessly, he just wanted to wake him up, who did he provoke.
After beating someone, Chu Yi finally remembered who he was beating.
"Brother Minghe, I'm really sorry. I didn't react for a while. ”
"It's okay, you come with me first."
Chu Yi followed him to Liyan's room.
Seeing him covering his eyes, he couldn't help but gloat, "Your new friend is good to you." ”
Chu Yi looked at Liyan in a daze, this voice ...... He remembered as if he had heard it somewhere.
"He didn't mean to, blame me, I got too close." Loming River Channel.
"Alright, sit down and talk."
Chu Yi looked at Liyan and said in a deep voice: "I have heard your voice. ”
Li Yan glanced at him lightly and said, "No, I went to see you in prison before." On the way back, I also spoke to you. By the way, do you remember what I told you? ”
Chu Yi looked at Liyan suspiciously, "No, ......"
"I don't remember, then forget it, it's not an important thing, that's it." Liyan hurriedly changed the topic and said, "Come, let's talk about how much it cost to redeem you." See how you can give me the money. ”
Luo Minghe squinted at Liyan, he was sure that she must have said something very interesting to Chu Yi, otherwise she wouldn't have changed the topic so quickly.
He turned his head to look at Xuan Nian, probably never knowing what she was talking about.
"A total of fifty taels, twenty-five taels per person, give money."
Luo Minghe's eyes widened and said, "How can you ask for so much money?" ”
"When you stole people and fled, you knocked over five vegetable stalls; Then, while fighting with someone, he knocked over the wonton stall......"
Luo Minghe raised his hand to stop the departure, and said, "I know, I'll give money, give money." ”
When he touched the money bag, Luo Minghe smiled bitterly.
"You have five taels of silver left?" Liyan was surprised.
"We drank a few jugs of good wine at noon for a few days."
Liyan put away his money and said, "The rest is owed first, and you will pay it back when you have the money." ”
Luo Minghe hurriedly assured her that he would definitely pay back the money he had, and he would never owe money and not pay it back.
Li Yan turned his head to look at Chu Yi, who was staring at her, and said, "What about you?" ”
Luo Minghe pushed him, and he remembered to take the money bag.
But he searched for a long time, but he didn't find out where his money bag was.
He looked up at Liyan, who raised his eyebrows and said, "You don't want to say that your money bag is lost, right?" ”
“…… It's really not on me. But ......"
"But what?" Liyan asked.
"It's nothing, I can work with you and pay you back." He said.
"I don't need it, I don't have a shortage of work, I don't need money. We can go to your house and get the money. ”
Chu Yi said: "My family is not here, go to my house, I'm afraid it will take half a month." ”
Li Yan looked at Chu Yi carefully, he was wearing fine silk and satin, and he must be the son of a rich and noble family. It may be that he abandoned the servants at home and learned to wander the rivers and lakes.
"Do you have anything of value on you?" Liyan asked.
"No, I only brought money."
Liyan sneered, sure enough, it was a scholar who roamed the rivers and lakes, and he didn't bring valuables with him. Judging by the way he looks, even if he is left here, he will definitely find a way to keep up.
"You can follow us, but I don't have a job for you to do, you have to find a way to make money yourself."
"Okay."
Liyan nodded with satisfaction and said, "You can go." ”
"I ......"
Luo Minghe hurriedly stopped him, "You go and clean up first." ”
"I'll keep him, and you'll be responsible for watching him. He's your friend, he's in trouble, and you're responsible. ”
"I just met him on the street......"
"I don't want to know how you met, how you managed to drink at the same table, I just want to know, can or can't?"
"Yes, yes, yes, I will be responsible, and I will definitely not let him have an accident."
"Don't tell him everything, you know?"
Luo Minghe nodded hurriedly and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely not drink again in the future." ”
Li Yan rubbed the corners of his forehead and waved his hand to let him go.
"Brother Minghe, what's that girl's name?"
Luo Minghe patted Chu Yi on the shoulder and said, "Her name is Liyan, you remember, you must listen to her, don't make her angry." In particular, don't pick it up casually...... Forget it, forget it. You just have to remember that you don't make her angry. ”
"Excuse me." He read it softly, and asked casually: "Brother Minghe and Miss Li must have encountered a lot of things when they walked the rivers and lakes, right?" ”
Luo Minghe nodded, they had encountered a lot of things.
"Are you afraid of ghosts?" Luo Minghe asked solemnly.
Chu Yi felt funny in his heart, ghost stories were just written in books, what was so terrible.
He told Luo Minghe in a firm tone that he was not afraid.
"It's good not to be afraid, it's good not to be afraid."
Chu Yi didn't understand what Luo Minghe meant by saying this, until the next night, he finally understood the meaning of Luo Minghe's words.
The dark clouds covered the moon, and a few people who should have been lying on the bed and quietly falling asleep.
However, Chu Yi followed Liyan and the others in the dark night sky, and he had no idea what he was chasing.
"Brother Minghe, what are we doing here?"
"There's one in front of you" Luo Minghe leaned into his ear and whispered, "Female ghost." ”
Chu Yi looked at Luo Minghe with an expression that I didn't hear what you said, can you say it again.
Luo Minghe saw that the female ghost had been subdued by Liyan, so he said, "Are you ready?" ”
"Prepare what?"
"Hell."
Chu Yi looked at Liyan, she was chanting words in front of the air, and there was a red rope tied in front of her, which made Chu Yi really feel as if there were people there.
"Okay."
Luo Minghe handed the small porcelain vase that Liyan had given him to Chu Yi and told him to wipe it on his eyelids.
Chu Yi took the small porcelain bottle suspiciously, poured out the contents of the bottle, and looked at the transparent liquid, Chu Yi was still a little hesitant.
"Hurry up, she's going to speak."
After Chu Yi wiped it, he really saw a woman standing in front of Liyan. Dressed in black, his face was pale, bleeding from his seven orifices, and his appearance was very terrifying.
"Why are you following those people, you don't have to worry, I'm not here to collect you. I just want to know why you're following her so that I have a chance to help you. ”
The female ghost looked at Liyan sadly, Liyan glanced at the red rope on her body, and said, "I'll let go of you now, okay." ”
Seeing that Liyan really let go of herself, the female ghost's expression finally returned to normal.
She looked at Liyan and said with tears in her eyes: "I want to see my daughter." ”
"Your daughter is in the carriage?" Liyan asked.
The female ghost nodded and said, "Xi'er is in the carriage." ”
"We'll take you to her." Off the beaten track.
The female ghost looked at Liyan, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Dao Chief, I did something before. ”
"What did you do?" Liyan asked.
"I ...... I scared a guy crazy. ”
Liyan understood why she ran away as soon as she saw them. It turned out that she was worried that they would take her.
"Why are you scaring her?" Liyan asked.
She lowered her head and whispered, "She poisoned me." ”
"So, you're poisoned."
The woman nodded, and said, "After I died, she went to my bedside and said a lot of things. How to poison it, she said it clearly. At that time, I was so angry that I was somehow seen by her. After that, there was news of the haunting in the house. ”
She looked up at the direction where the carriage was leaving, and said, "My mother-in-law took Xi'er to the Buddhist temple on the mountain." I couldn't keep up, so I had to stay at the bottom of the mountain and wait for them. I thought that while they didn't come home, I could take a good look at Xi'er, but I don't know......"
"You met us, didn't you?"
The woman nodded slightly.
"Why did the guy you scared you crazy kill you?"
Chu Yi looked at Luo Minghe in surprise, and talked to her like this, is it really good?
"She wanted to be the wife of the master, and she felt that I was in her way." Woman.
