Even the mother-in-law's body is hot, and her head has been dizzy, but she still has to do errands.

She gritted her teeth and chopped the firewood in the kitchen, and then the steward immediately ordered her to hurry up and carry water, and it was about to start making lunch, and there was not much water in the kitchen urn.

Lian Pozi swallowed her anger and carried the wooden barrel to the courtyard in the garden.

There are two wells in the house, one is new, the other is old, the other is far away, and the other is near.

This old well is close to the kitchen, but probably because of the age, the water level in it has gradually decreased, the water is mixed with sediment, and the walls of the well are also covered with a thick layer of moss. If the bucket goes in in a hurry, the water that comes out of the well will be muddy.

Nowadays, most of the kitchen water is carried to the new well, and the well water here is used for washing and washing.

Even the mother-in-law was lazy and didn't want to go far away, so she quietly went to the old well with a bucket.

The reels on the old well had been removed and taken to the new well, and there was a bucket with a rope tied to it beside the well. Lian Pozi carefully put the bucket into the capital slowly, and when she swung it left and right, the bucket took water and slowly sank.

Mrs. Lian didn't have much strength today, so she bent over and laboriously dragged the bucket upward, suffocating her face and ears.

The water at the bottom of the well was shining, and when she glanced at it, she felt a little dizzy.

Suddenly, she felt that something was wrong, and it seemed to be dark behind her, and someone was leaning over lightly.

She twisted her face and looked behind her, and before she could see who was behind her, she felt a strong force pushing towards her.

She was bent over with her head bowed, still carrying a heavy bucket in her hand. This push made her suddenly lightheaded, her head down, and she threw herself into the well.

"Poof!"

It's the sound of a bucket falling into a well first.

"Tong!"

It was the muffled sound of Lian Pozi falling into the well.

Before she could shout for help, she had already sunk to the bottom.

When An Sheng came back from the medicine house in the evening, he felt that the atmosphere in the house was very wrong, and everyone's face was not good-looking.

In the backyard, on the edge of the old well, there are many people around.

Everyone talked a lot, and they all lowered their voices, and there was a look of horror on their faces.

An Sheng was curious and leaned forward.

The Dragon Boat Festival was also there, and when she came back, she immediately greeted her, with a solemn expression: "Miss, something happened in the house." ”

"What's the matter?" An Sheng asked strangely: "Looking at everyone's faces, the expressions are a little strange. ”

The Dragon Boat Festival got straight to the point and said: "Even the mother-in-law is dead." ”

"What?" An Sheng glanced at the crowd in surprise, his face full of shock: "Even the mother-in-law is dead?" ”

Dragon Boat nodded: "Yes, I died at noon today." ”

"How did you die? Wasn't it okay yesterday? An Sheng asked curiously.

"Miss, you get up early and go to the medicine store early, you don't know, the place where even my mother-in-law lives was haunted last night." The Dragon Boat Festival was cautious, and when he said this, he couldn't help but glance in the direction of the old well, as if he was afraid of something.

An Sheng smiled: "How is it possible? ”

"It's true!" The Dragon Boat Festival seemed to be afraid that An Sheng would not believe it, and deliberately accentuated his voice: "Now the house is spreading this matter." ”

"Preach what?"

"Last night, the ghost knocked on the door of Lian's mother-in-law's residence, knocked all night, and heard that there were ghost fires floating around."

"Is it that even the mother-in-law has offended people, who is pranky?" An Sheng asked tentatively.

Dragon Boat Festival shook her head firmly: "Even my mother-in-law got up several times in one night, but she didn't see a single figure, and she also said that there was an injustice written in blood on her door!" But when everyone got up in the morning, they disappeared. ”

"Really?" An Sheng raised his eyebrows indifferently, not surprised.

"It's true, at that time, I was so scared that Mrs. Lian fainted there, and I didn't wake up until dawn." Dragon Boat Festival swallowed a mouthful of saliva nervously: "Then as soon as Lian mother-in-law woke up, she screamed, saying that there was a ghost, and she was still chanting 'Madame spares her life, it is not me who killed you'." ”

"What you say is true?" An Sheng's face suddenly became serious: "Did she really say that at the time?" ”

Dragon Boat Festival nodded like pounding garlic: "At that time, many people saw it, and it reached the ears of the old lady, and the old lady also called her to the courtyard for questioning." “

An Sheng also gradually calmed down: "And then? He's dead? ”

Dragon Boat Festival said "um": "When she came out of the old lady, she was instructed by the steward to fetch water." Who knew that the left could not wait, and the right could not wait, and the steward was a little anxious, so he ordered someone to look for her.

As a result, I walked around and didn't see her for a long time. In the end, when I saw that the two buckets she used to carry water were thrown next to the old well, I leaned over to take a look, only to find that Lian Pozi had fallen into the well and drowned. ”

"Stumbling?"

Dragon Boat Festival nodded: "There is moss on the platform of the old well, and there are traces of slipping, so Mrs. said that she must have slipped and fallen into the well." But the people in the house all talked about it privately, saying that even the mother-in-law deserved to be killed, and last night it was the ghost who came to knock on the door to ask for her life, and she was lucky to avoid it. It's a pity that I can hide from the first year of junior high school, but I can't hide from the fifteenth. ”

An Sheng didn't expect that the haunted incident last night would actually calm the turmoil of Lian Pozi's death, and whitewash the peace for her such a strange death.

She didn't think that even her mother-in-law's death was so simple.

Because it's so coincidental, it's unbelievably ingenious.

An Sheng can almost conclude that Lian's mother-in-law's death has nothing to do with the Xue family.

The haunted incident of last night was planned by An Sheng.

She took advantage of the night to quietly brush the eel blood on the door of her mother-in-law, and wrote the big injustice with the eel blood.

Eel blood can attract bats. This is what An Sheng saw from the book "Strange Arts", so he had an idea and used it to scare Mrs. Lian.

The smell of blood in the eel soon attracted bats that were preying nearby, and they slammed into the door of the house one after another, and Lian Pozi really began to feel weak.

Ansheng then struck while the iron was hot and succeeded in stunting her with the addition of sulfur using the "ghost fire" added to it.

An Sheng originally just wanted to use this to drive a wedge between Lian's mother-in-law and the Xue family, so that she could have a chance to find evidence that the Xue family killed her mother-in-law.

She naively thought that if Lian Pozi was frightened, she would definitely talk nonsense, and when the time came, the Xue family would be worried that the matter would be exposed, and she would definitely find trouble with Lian Pozi, so she would turn against her.

However, An Sheng didn't expect that the Xue family would be so ruthless, and directly drowned Lian Pozi's murder.

She also suddenly felt frightened, the Xue family regarded a human life as light as a mustard, so what else did she dare not dare? In the face of such a ferocious opponent, you should walk on thin ice in the future.

An Sheng was stunned for a while, and the Dragon Boat Festival called her twice, before she came to her senses.

"Miss, what's wrong with you?"

An Sheng shook his head: "It's nothing, I just feel that a living person is gone like this, and I am a little surprised." ”

Dragon Boat Festival "um": "Even the mother-in-law is big, and the whole person is swollen by the well water, and now she is stuck at the wellhead, and she can't go up or down, which is very scary." ”

An Sheng glanced at the mouth of the well surrounded by everyone again: "You are bold." ”

"I just hid behind people and didn't dare to look at it, only those mothers-in-law were bold and gathered around to judge. I still have straight hairs in my heart, and I feel creepy when I look at the well, let alone bend over to look at the corpse of my mother-in-law. ”

"There should still be someone in the mother-in-law's house, right? Didn't anyone come and ask for an explanation? An Sheng asked.

"What do you want, and there is no one who is very close to you, give some silver and send it away, oh, the man in the gray cloth hexagram, short and strong, is the maiden brother of Lian Pozi."

An Sheng raised his eyes to see, and there was really a strange man squatting next to the well platform, crying "woo", and nagging: "Sister, come up, my brother-in-law is still waiting for you to reunite." Brother must be born to bury you, and then you will be reincarnated as soon as possible. ”

At the mouth of the well, a wheel was erected, and the men in the house pressed the wheel hard, and the rope on it was extremely tight.

The steward stood aside and discussed with Brother Lian's mother-in-law with kind words: "Or, how much more strength?" Otherwise, after a while, the corpse will start, and the one can top two big, plus the body is hard, and it will be even more difficult to invite it out. ”

Even the mother-in-law brother stalked his neck: "Absolutely not!" My sister has died in an unknown way, it's miserable enough, if you make a sudden effort, it may not be where it will be rubbed, how undignified! If you lose an arm or leg, will you go down and fish? ”

The steward smiled wryly: "How can it, I just said that we use a little strength, and we are not brute." You can see this man, it's just a foot or two away. ”

"That's because my sister doesn't want to come up!" Even the mother-in-law and brother said with a white face.

"If you can't do it, you'll pick up the well platform, right? Even the mother-in-law was already big, and the mouth of the well was too narrow, and she was arched enough to come up. The well is ruined anyway. ”

The steward smacked his mouth, probably thinking that the idea might work, and leaned over to look down.

"But I can't reach it down there, I'm afraid it's not where my arms and legs are stuck?"

Among the servants, there was an older one, and he couldn't help but open his mouth: "Mother-in-law Lian has always liked yellow and white things, let her go on the road, I'm afraid she wants to burn some dishes, right?" ”

Her words were immediately echoed by others: "That's it, this kind of thing has never been clear, while the sky is not yet dark, hurry up." ”

The sky was already dark, and lanterns were hung on the edge of the well platform, which illuminated the well platform in a bleak place.

An Sheng involuntarily felt timid in his heart, and he didn't dare to take a closer look.

The steward was helpless, so he ordered someone to go down and buy it, and after a short time, he brought a wad of burning paper printed on yellow straw paper.

Everyone consciously let go of a vacant lot and burned it on the edge of the well platform, and the flames jumped, reflecting the expressionless faces of Lian Pozi and his brothers.

A gust of night wind blew, and it rolled up pieces of ashes, like black butterflies, and fell into the well in a flickering manner.

The onlookers all took two steps back, all a little surprised.
