Chapter 22: The Haunted Courtyard (1)

Xinglin Lane walked out, Xiao Wu stood on the apricot tree and looked at it, of course he couldn't see anything. The apricot blossom spirit sat on the branch and asked Ye Yuan with a smile: "Okay?" ”

Ye Liang rolled his eyes: "Why do you have so many hearty eyes, you little kid?" ”

"I'm just too lazy to cultivate, not really young."

Xiao Wu listened to Ye Quan's unkind tone and asked, "What did you say?" Oh, what do you say? ”

"You're a goblin, your family is a goblin, and you're an apricot fairy, fairy, okay?" Apricot blossom essence sharp teeth.

Ye Liang snorted and laughed, his eyes looked up and down the apricot blossom essence, the appearance of a teenager, are you still a fairy?

"What's wrong? Although the radish is small, it grows in the generations, and I grow small, but I am old. ”

"Okay, old fairy, old fairy, goodbye."

Ye Liang walked out and saw that Xinghuajing was still waving hard: "Hey, you have to come to see me often with a white face, I'm really boring alone." ”

It takes more than ten minutes to walk from Xinglin Lane to Baishui Lane, and two small alleys are passed in the middle. These two alleys are very narrow, surrounded by wooden buildings, and the clothes pole sticks out, and they are hung with all kinds of clothes and children's diapers, waving in the wind, like the flags of all nations.

It's already noon, and the smell of smoke from someone's coal stove wafts over, and some people are washing vegetables under the faucet at the door, and children are running all over the ground, shouting: "Sola Sola Dorado, a father driving a car, crushing an old woman, sin and sin, sin and sin, really sin." ”

The widow's house in Whitewater Lane is still there, and after the widow's death, distant relatives from the countryside came to try to occupy the house, and the family lived in the house for two months and then ran away, saying that it was haunted. Later, some people lived in it, but they didn't live long, and the house was empty for more than ten years, the wooden door was mottled with rain-washed paint, and a rusty lock hung up.

Xiao Wu stepped forward and pushed the door, the lock had corroded and rotted, and it fell to the ground with a clang, and the door creaked open.

"Amitabha, sin, sin. Sir, what are you pushing this door for? ”

An old woman walked out of the door diagonally opposite, with gray hair tied at the back of her head, looking fifty or sixty years old, wearing a blue coat, and her fat coarse cloth pants were small feet like pointed rice dumplings.

"I'm a police officer." Xiao Wu took out the pie and shook it. The woman shook her head: "I can't read." ”

"Hey, Mommy is going to eat, what are you doing running out?" A rough voice came, a man in his thirties.

"You've been living here?" Ye Liang pointed to their house.

"My wife has lived here all her life." The old woman replied.

"Then you know what happened to the widow back then, right?" Xiao Wu asked.

The man looked at Ye Liang and then at Xiao Wu, pulled the old woman's sleeve and said, "I entered the house to eat, I don't know it, where did you get so much nonsense?" ”

This refers to Sang scolding Huai.

"I'm a police officer, and I want to know a little bit about what it was like back then."

The man sneered: "It's been more than ten years, what else is there to know." ”

Xiao Wu saw that he looked indifferent and his tone was also very disdainful, and suddenly asked, "Could it be that your surname is Liu?" The man was stunned: "How do you know?" ”

"Because I read the old file and knew that it was Liu San's case, you should be Liu San's son, right?"

The man grabbed his mother's arm angrily and dragged it back, Ye Liang asked, "It's been more than ten years, and you still hate that woman?" ”

"Nonsense, what does that woman's life or death have to do with me?"

"I only said that you hate the widow, how can you immediately think of her life or death?" Ye Quan smiled like a little fox, "Or do you hate her and hate her and always want her to die, and then finally died, are you very happy?" ”

This man looked like he was in his thirties, and he was a teenager fourteen years ago.

"People have been dead for so many years, what's the point of saying this?"

The old woman sighed and continued, "I don't care about those things anymore, you still can't let it go." Alas, I told you earlier that you should recite the scriptures more, cultivate this life and cultivate the next life, suffer in this life and this life, don't suffer in the next life. ”

Xiao Wu has seen the old files, and the one who reported the case was a good friend of the widow Qu, named Liu San, who also lived in Baishui Lane, he went to find the woman on a date at night, and when he entered the door, he saw that the person was dead. That day, lightning flashed and thundered, and a bolt of lightning shone on the woman's bloody head, which frightened Liu San's fart and ran out, shouting miserably: "Dead man, dead man." ”

Xiao Wu saw that this man was full of vigilance about the murder of Widow Qu, so he guessed that he might be the son of Liu San, the informant back then, and he guessed correctly.

The man did not say a word, and pulled the old woman into the house. Ye Liang cheekily followed in, and the man turned his head to look: "Why are you ......?"

"What's wrong with me?"

Ye Liang looked at him with a smile, and the man's face turned red all of a sudden. Faced with a beautiful woman like a witch, he was at a loss and didn't know what to say.

The old woman said heartily: "All these years have passed, you can ask whatever you want?" ”

Xiao Wu glanced at the table, there were only two bowls of rice and a small plate of pickles, and a bowl of rice with a peeled egg in it, Xiao Wu thought to himself that this man looked vulgar, but he was quite filial, and now there were only two bowls of rice, and that Liu San was probably dead.

The man said, "Mom, those things...... You're not ashamed. ”

"It's not us who do the wrong thing, what's the shame. Back then, my man and that woman were not refreshing, I knew it, I couldn't control it, he beat me, and then the sea was big and he didn't dare to fight, and the woman couldn't get along, and the rabbit didn't eat the grass by the nest, he ...... Hey, he's not the only one, several people in this alley are unclear with the woman, and some people who are angry have to move out, and the woman is dead. ”

"Is Liu San already?"

Xiao Wu wanted to speak and stopped.

"I'm dead, I've been dead for years, I was frightened by the widow's death, and then my brain was wrong, and I ran around in the winter and froze to death." The man sneered, "Scourge, why didn't you die earlier." ”

"I heard that the yard is haunted?" Leaf limit refers to the outside of the house.

"Amitabha, it's really haunted." The old woman folded her hands and muttered words in her mouth.

"It's haunted, or the house wouldn't have been empty. It's haunted on a rainy day! ”

The man also nodded and said.

"Haunted on a rainy day?" Ye Quan's eyes flickered like water, and the man was so flustered by her that he couldn't help but say: "It's a rainy day, and there is lightning, and the ghost will come out." It's the dead widow Qu, everyone says that she is unjustly dead, bah, what is wrong, she has hurt so many people, she is not clean, if she hadn't died early, I would have ...... sooner or later."

When the man said this, he hurriedly stopped, reached out and touched his head, and said no more.

"If she doesn't die, you'll have to kill her sooner or later, right?"

Xiao Wu asked.

"Yes, but I didn't do it, she died before I could do it, and she was cheap."
