Chapter 007: The Wall
It's past the middle of February, and the weather is getting warmer.
The sunlight shines through the window, illuminating the warmth and serenity of the study.
Ming Wei sat by the window, listening to Mama Tong and Mrs. Ming San.
"There are three people on the stove who are on leave, two people in the flower room, and a few who are also sick. Chunyu Niang came over in the morning and said that Chunyu was old and wanted to leave the house......"
Su Jie interjected: "Phew! What's older, isn't it just haunted in the garden and wants to run? Well said! ”
Mrs. Ming San smiled: "This is also human nature. Everyone saw the situation that day, and there was no reason to ask them to accompany them to death. ”
Su Jieqi said: "Where will you die?" Didn't the fairy Gu say it? That thing has been sealed, as long as you find the immortal chief of Xuanduguan to collect it. ”
"However, it is not yet known whether the immortal chief of Xuandu Temple can be invited over." Mrs. Ming said gently, "Don't force others to be good to you, you are born in the world, no one owes anyone, but those who stay, you have to remember their love." ”
Su Jie was still unhappy, and muttered: "I don't see her take less rewards on weekdays, and she runs faster than anyone else when something happens." Madame is also too kind......"
Ming Wei glanced at Mrs. Ming San.
This sentence is quite Zen, and there are few people in the world who live as transparently as Mrs. Mingsan, and even fewer who are both transparent and kind-hearted.
Mingwei thought that he should find a chance to "get better". If she gets better, Mrs. Ming San will be happy, right? Besides, there are too few things that can be done by this idiot's identity.
"Madame mean, yes?" Mama Tong asked.
Mrs. Ming San bowed her head: "Give her twenty taels of silver, and leave the house with dignity, and she should be full of affection." Everyone else who has taken leave is allowed, and there is no need to add any more. At this moment, it is useless to have more people, but to use more tongues. ”
Mama Tong said: "Madame is thoughtful. The slaves and maidservants would tell them to be cautious in what they said and to do not go out and talk nonsense. ”
"Hmm."
There was a noise outside the window, and Mrs. Ming San said, "Sujie, go and see what happened." ”
Su Jie was just about to answer, and another maid, Bingxin, had already hurried in: "Madam! The fourth master has brought someone here again! ”
Hearing the fourth master, Mama Tong frowned.
"Speak slowly." Mrs. Ming San's expression was calm, "Who did the fourth master bring?" How many are there? Do you know what to do? ”
Bing Xin said anxiously: "About a dozen people!" They were all tall manservants, and they carried shovels and sticks or something...... Madame, why don't you hide? ”
Mrs. Ming San smiled: "Could it be that the fourth master will still beat me?" Don't worry, check it out first. ”
Ming Wei got up and went out with Mrs. Ming silently.
"Do you see that line? Dig as such! ”
"These trees have been cut down, and they look like an eyesore."
When they went out, the lake was already in chaos, with a pit in the east and a pit in the west.
"Fourth uncle!"
The fourth master of Ming, who was supervising the work, glanced at Mrs. Ming San, and said nonchalantly: "Oh, the third sister-in-law is here!" ”
Mrs. Ming San wrinkled her brows: "Fourth Uncle, what are you doing?" ”
Master Ming Si looked cold: "Didn't you say it was haunted?" I'll help you fence off the haunted place, so that the people in your garden will be panicked, this disease and that one, others still think that our Ming family is going to end! ”
"Fourth Master!" Mama Tong couldn't help it, "Fairy Gu said, the evil ghost is on that tree, you have brought so many people, what if something happens?" ”
Master Ming Si glanced at her, and his mouth was not polite at all: "You old man still dare to appear?" Shut up! If you are noisy again, the master will let people pick up your pants and hit the board, and then see if you are still decent! ”
Mama Tong was so angry that her face turned blue. She is Madame's nurse, isn't it a slap in the face to hit her?
This fourth master, how dare you do this! At the beginning, the two masters in the second room of the Ming family said that they were twins, but their temperaments were very different. One is mild-tempered and is notoriously humble, the other is impatient and extremely difficult to get along with.
The third master that Mrs. married, she was still glad, who knew that the third master would go and call the fourth master to become a family? It's okay to be fine, and those who are uncles won't just enter the widow's residence. Once something happens, these four masters always talk with guns and sticks.
Complaining only that the third master went too early, leaving their mother and daughter alone.
Mrs. Ming San was not angry, gave Mama Tong a look, motioned her to step back, and asked herself: "Fourth uncle, how do you want to surround it?" ”
Seeing that she didn't dwell on this matter, the fourth master of Ming retracted his gaze and pointed to the lake: "Anyway, this side is remote, I will build a wall here to separate it, and it will not hinder you." ”
Mrs. Ming looked at it carefully for a while and nodded: "In this case, there is Fourth Uncle Lao." I'm here all the maids and servants, so please restrain the servants. Also, tell them not to go near the tree, in case something happens, it's not good. ”
Master Ming's tone also slowed down: "Okay." ”
Mrs. Ming San gave a salute and turned around to leave.
After walking out of the way, Mama Tong asked, "Madam, just let the fourth master go?" ”
Mrs. Ming San said: "He is right, surround the place, so that everyone can rest assured." ”
"Alas......"
Mingwei fell at the back and asked Duofu: "Who is this?" ”
Duofu was puzzled: "Who did the young lady say?" ”
Mingwei stretched out his hand and pointed.
Duofu said: "This is the fourth master!" Didn't the lady recognize it? ”
"Really?" Ming muttered slightly.
She has had a problem since she was a child, that is, she doesn't recognize people very well, unless her appearance is very distinctive, otherwise, she has to see many times to remember.
Later, Master taught her to discern qi. Everyone's qi is different, and their appearance can be similar, but their qi is rarely the same.
Since then, she has been accustomed to distinguishing people by qi and never making mistakes.
But just now, she vaguely felt that the anger of the fourth master of Ming was different from that day.
Is it because she changed her body and hasn't recovered yet, so there is a mistake in induction?
"Miss, shall we go back too?" Duofu saw that she was delaying her and urged.
Mingwei wanted to turn around, but felt that something was wrong, so he looked at the lake a few more times.
These valets dug a few small pits around the willow tree and buried a few paper bags in them. One of the paper bags leaked out of the corner, spilling a little red.
Cinnabar?
The eyes she looked at the fourth master of Ming became meaningful.
"Miss?" Duofu urged again.
"Hmm." Mingwei turned around and went back to the house.
This originally simple thing seems to have become complicated.
"Duofu, what did they say hell before?"
Duofu thought for a while: "Xiaoxiang said that it was a white shadow, but Jiu'er said that she wore a costume, and the strangest thing was Liu'er, who said that she was a bald monk!" How can any ghost be a monk's? Didn't they see the Buddha go when they died? ”
"It's all different?"
"Well, to each his own. Miss, they may have mistaken it, what we saw that day was obviously not like that. ”
Mingwei said in his heart, that's right.
Those who set up this kind of bureau generally use old psychic objects. They have developed a faint spiritual sense, but they have not yet turned into spirits, and can only manifest, but in fact they are harmless.
Those who wear costumes are likely to be from the theater troupe. The bald monk, of course, is in the temple.
Then, in this bureau, there is a link that cannot be deducted at all.
It's the murderous thing that scared Miss Ming Qi to death.
