Chapter 6 Origin

The glimmer of the morning sun grew stronger, and the light spread over every inch of the land, and the ruins of the ancient temple were soaked in sunlight, and the blinding light shone on her face through the window. The corners of Luo Qingyun's eyes jumped, but he only felt cold between his fingers, and his thoughts were not clear but he suddenly got up!

The sky was already blooming, the early morning mountain forest, the faint mist had not yet dispersed, and beside her was a pile of burned dead branches, the two of them had disappeared, and she had fallen asleep in this ancient temple unknowingly last night.

It was getting late, and it was time for her to continue on her way. She dusted off the ashes on her body, her eyes moved, and she saw a place outside the door that was shining with Yingying Zeze, and when she got closer, she couldn't help but be startled, and picked up the ice blue dragon and phoenix double pendant. This jade pendant belonged to the boy last night, and he must have accidentally lost it here when he left.

She tightened her cloak and stepped out of the door tremblingly, looking around. Although it was daytime, the woods were still gloomy and cold, she had palpitations, clutching the string of Buddhist beads, and for a while, she didn't seem to feel the existence of evil things around her. Maybe the sky is bright and yang, and no matter how powerful the ghosts are, they are not as rampant as at night. She hooked her lips happily, quickened her pace, and didn't dare to delay and rushed to Changzhou.

Changzhou County, because of the proximity to the prosperity of the capital, that night Mo Qingzhi told her that she could get here by crossing Yanshan, and sure enough, she walked out of Yanshan in less than half a day, not caring about hunger, she drank two sips of water by the river, and continued to hurry.

At this time, on the bustling streets of Changzhou, the city is full of jewels, and the households are full of Luoqi. A little girl dressed in rich clothes was asking around where the county government was.

On the teahouse next to the street, the man in white became more and more cold, holding the tea cup to his lips, for a long time, the tea was cold, he was thoughtful, he didn't realize it.

"Young Master!" The man in Tsing Yi saw him distracted, and reminded softly: "Your tea is cold!" ”

When the cold wind hit, he came back to his senses and placed the teacup on the table.

"The hour is getting late, do you want to continue looking for the man?" The man in Tsing Yi continued to ask.

He paused, his eyes became more and more cold, his thin lips opened and closed up and down, and he sighed lightly: "Find!" Only that man has psychic skills, and only by finding him can you find dragon scales! ”

The man in Tsing Yi looked embarrassed and felt very embarrassed, but seeing that he insisted on doing so, he nodded for a while: "Okay, there is still half a day!" ”

The two of them were about to get up, the man in white was shocked, and suddenly found that the jade pendant on his waist was missing, and his expression suddenly became nervous, he hurriedly looked around and leaned over to look for it, his face was full of bitterness.

"What happened?" When the man in Tsing Yi saw him like this, he couldn't help but feel a tense in his heart.

"My jade pendant is gone!" His face straightened, and his eyes were still looking around.

Hearing this, the man in Tsing Yi trembled slightly, and hurriedly relieved: "Don't worry, Son, the jade pendant must have fallen on the road, and the minister will return the same way now, and he will definitely be able to find it!" ”

The man in white looked at one place, his eyes sank, and his eyebrows couldn't help but tuft slightly. Following his gaze, Luo Qingyun walked on the street in a daze, she only dared to ask the woman along the way, and when she saw the boss who came forward to shout or Xiao Er with a long scarf around her neck to solicit customers, she was so frightened that she avoided it timidly.

"Is that her?" The man in green clothes was slightly stunned, his eyes stayed on her for a moment, and the glowing blue dragon and phoenix pendant on her waist was particularly abrupt, and he exclaimed: "Childe, your jade pendant is on her!" ”

The eyes of the man in white have been on her, and the jade pendant must have fallen in the ancient temple last night and was picked up by her. Before he finished speaking, the man in Tsing Yi had already chased downstairs. Luo Qingyun searched all the way, raised his eyes to see the gate of the county government not far away, was overjoyed, and couldn't help but speed up his pace.

Changzhou Yamen sits in the north and faces south, facing the intersection of the south side. The blue wall and gray tiles, the black beam and the red door, and the mirror are suspended on the two floors and three steps. There are large brass nails in the red lacquered main entrance, which stands solemnly.

Luo Qingyun stood in front of the yamen, looking at a big drum next to the Shenming Pavilion on the west side, hesitated for a long time, the corners of her mouth pursed, took a deep breath and held it, faintly a little timid, but strode up.

The man in Tsing Yi saw her pacing in front of the official yamen, and couldn't help but be stunned: "Son, what is the second lady of Luofu doing in Changzhou County?" ”

He didn't answer, but he was also surprised, only to see Luo Qingyun pick up the drumstick on the side, the drumstick was very heavy, and she lifted it with difficulty.

"Knock-" The drums beat in bursts, deafening.

After a while, the gate of the county government opened, and an errand guard walked out. Seeing her beating a drum and shouting grievances, her face instantly became much more ugly, and she asked impatiently, "Who are you and what are you doing here?" ”

Luo Qingyun withdrew the drumstick and said respectfully: "Official, the little woman Luo Qingyun wants to meet the prefect!" ”

The guard glanced at her with disdain, and roared, "Lord Prefect, but you can see it when you say it?" If there is no grievance, don't do nothing here! ”

Seeing his arrogant attitude, Luo Qingyun shrank his shoulders in fright. If she didn't explain it, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to enter the county office, so she paused and said: "Trouble the official to inform the lord of the mansion that the little girl came here from the capital Ayaluo Fang to pass the word for the old lady!" ”

When it came to the capital Ayaluofang, the arrogant attitude in the guard's eyes was only a little lighter, he looked at her carefully, and saw that she was not dressed like an ordinary woman, so he was no longer slack, and squeezed out a smile: "It's the master's family, then please come in!" ”

Luo Qingyun bowed as a sign of gratitude, and followed him in.

Not far away, the man in Tsing Yi saw her enter the yamen, but he couldn't hear what they said, his expression was stunned, and he said in a trance: "What am I doing here, your jade pendant!" ”

The man in white saw all this in his eyes, what is the relationship between the Luo family in the capital and the prefect of Changzhou, why did this woman come here alone after crossing Yanshan late at night, his eyes were black, and he said quietly: "Go in and have a look!" ”

In the lobby, the screen in the middle is painted with a picture of the rising sun of the landscape, the mountain is positive, the water is clear, and the sun is bright. This 'honest and honest' is similar to the 'mirror hanging' hanging above the palace. She looked at the four treasures of the study room placed on the one-foot-high platform in front of her, and she couldn't help but feel a tight heart.

Outside the door, the man in Tsing Yi knocked on the door with the hilt of his sword, and the guard walked out extremely bored, seeing the two people in front of him like jade, standing still, the man in white glanced at him coldly, the guard snorted coldly, and asked dishappily: "This is the county government, what is the matter with the two of you?" ”

The man in Tsing Yi didn't say anything but took out a piece of gold and jade token, the guard glanced at it disdainfully, was stunned, and then looked at it, his eyes were round, his lips were slightly open, and he couldn't help but gasp.

Mo Qingyao walked out of the second hall, saw Luo Qingyun's face, and asked puzzledly, "Who are you?" ”

Luo Qingyun saw that the man in front of him was handsome and somewhat similar to Mo Qingzhi, he was wearing an official uniform with a black veil on his head, standing about the age of the year, and his eyes were clear. Although he is a little blessed, he does not hide his righteousness. She settled down and replied, "My lord, the little woman's name is Luo Qingyun!" ”

Mo Qingyao was even more inexplicable: "The squire has a legend that someone from my family is here, what does the girl have to do with Ayaluofang?" ”

Luo Qingyun paused, she didn't know how to speak, and said in a low voice: "Actually, I was entrusted by Sister Ling to come here to find you!" ”

Seeing her indifferent, Mo Qingyao was startled, and then reprimanded in a low voice: "What are you talking nonsense? My official's sister has been dead for three years, how can you be entrusted by her! ”

Luo Qingyun looked at the guards beside him, and his tone was extremely low: "My lord, the little woman is definitely not nonsense!" ”

"This official still has important things to deal with, don't mess around here, hurry up!" Mo Qingyao flicked her sleeves unhappily and was about to leave.

"Stay here, sir!" Luo Qingyun sank his eyes: "Is there still an elderly mother in the adult's family, she was locked up in the inner garden by Zhou Wenbin in the Ayaluo Fang, and she was tortured!" ”

Speaking of this, a trace of surprise flashed in Mo Qingyao's eyes, he was stunned for a moment, and said in a low voice: "What did you say?" ”

"Your Excellency, tell the guards around you to step down!"

Mo Qingyao hesitated for a long time, looked at her, and then waved his hand, and after all the guards around him retreated, he wondered, "What do you want to say?" ”

Luo Qingyun sorted out his thoughts and said seriously: "My lord, if you have any doubts about what I say next, please listen to it!" She raised her eyes and said lightly: "I was the second lady of Luofu in the capital, and that day the eldest sister asked me to go to the Jingjie Ayaluo Fang to retrieve the silk she wore into the palace, who knew that in the store, I saw your sister, to be exact, her soul!" ”

Seeing Mo Qingyao's expression, her eyes were full of unbelievable surprise, she continued: "She told me that she didn't die in childbirth, but now Zhou Wenbin, the owner of Ayaluofang, bought a midwife to kill her, Zhou Wenbin has a human face and a beast's heart, he seems to be taking care of the old lady now, but in fact it is just to cover up his crime, when I saw the old lady, she was in rags and was locked up in the backyard by Zhou Wenbin, now only you can save your mother and avenge Ling Mei!" ”

Mo Qingyao frowned, stood up, looked frightened, and after a long time, he chuckled lowly, and there was an inexplicable ridicule in his voice: "What nonsense, all this you said is also told to you by my sister's soul?" ”

Seeing him questioning, Luo Qingyun said 'um', and Mo Qingyao suddenly laughed: "This official is a scholar, how can he listen to your nonsense in broad daylight!" Then he waved his hand: "Don't anger me, hurry up!" ”

Luo Qingyun hurriedly said: "I crossed Yanshan and came to Changzhou alone, how could I fool you!" If you don't believe it, you can go to Mo Qingzhi's tomb to see, Zhou Wenbin threw her body into a mass grave in the mountains overnight, and asked a Taoist priest to seal her soul, so that she would never be able to live again! If you turn a deaf ear, you don't care about all this, your mother will still be tortured, and Mo Qingzhi will not be able to turn a blind eye!! ”

He looked stunned, his face was gloomy, and he came back to his senses after a while: "What you said is true!" ”

"You'll find out as soon as you go!" Luo Qingyun's eyes were calm.

Even though all this was so ridiculous, Ke Luo Qingyun's eyes were determined, he had to believe it, and after a long time, he asked sullenly: "You really see my sister's soul?" ”

She nodded: "She is wearing a dark red Netherworld Dress, she is as tall as me, and her facial features are delicate!" My lord, I don't have enough time to stay here for a long time, so you can go to the capital with me quickly! ”

Mo Qingyao was stunned, this woman could even tell the clothes Mo Qingzhi was wearing when he was buried, his back was cold, and he couldn't help but take a step back: "Why can you see her?" ”

Hearing this, Luo Qingyun's face turned cold, and after a while, she sighed, lowered her head and said, "I can see ghosts since I was a child!" ”

After passing through the door of the house, after the four screens, a trace of surprise flashed in the calm eyes of the man in white, and he looked at the matter in disbelief, turned around and walked out of the county office.

The man in Tsing Yi chased after him and said in surprise: "Young master, that... The woman said she could see ghosts! ”

The man in white faintly felt that this matter was quite interesting, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and his eyes were bright.

Seeing him look like this, the man in Tsing Yi became more puzzled, and the man in white said lightly: "I want to go and see!" ”

"However, the dragon scale ......" When the words came to his mouth, he also understood, if this woman could see ghosts, naturally there was no need to look for the person with psychic skills, but he raised his eyes and looked at the sky and said: "The time has passed, you promised the Queen Mother early tomorrow morning to go back!" ”

He said 'um' and said, "You go and see it for me!" Come back and tell me about it! ”

The man in Tsing Yi could vaguely sense his thoughts, but he was still worried: "Yes!" But I'm going, on your way back to the palace, in case you ......."

"How can there be so many whatever, don't show your face here, figure this thing out!"

"If you don't show up, how can you go back to the jade pendant!"

The man in white looked expectant, and hooked his lips: "If it's okay, I'll see her in the future!" ”
