059 Haunted House in the Mountains
Fang Hai was forcibly recruited by Bai Poria to be an accompanying doctor, from Beiguan City to the capital, a long journey, it is difficult to say whether he will be infected with any diseases or accidental injuries, so Fang Hai's car is equipped with a large number of various medicinal materials, enough to prepare life-saving elixirs for different diseases and ...... Kill by invisible poison!
"What if he doesn't give it?" Bai Shao knew Fang Hai's nature too well, and he would definitely take the lead if he wanted him to save people, and asked him to get some harmful medicine, but he refused to agree.
"You have to tell him clearly that someone wants to harm me, but I have good intentions and don't want to hurt people, and if they don't come to hurt me, I will never take the initiative to attack them. By the way, in addition, let Fang Hai prepare some common medicines to deal with ecstasy and laxatives. "Bai Poria suddenly weakened herself into an innocent victim, it was about her safety, Fang Hai generally didn't pay too much attention to principles. She guessed that if the other party wanted to attack them, most of them would choose to use drugs, after all, there were quite a few of them, and many of them knew at a glance that they were from the Lian family, and it was not so easy to eat. If she is a bandit, she will choose to use something like a laxative to reduce the combat effectiveness of the robbed object first.
Sure enough, Bai Peony soon asked for the medicine back. Bai Poria divided the medicine into two parts, Bai Peony took one and took one for herself.
The motorcade bid farewell to Lushan Town slowly, and went along the official road, stopping at the foot of a hill at noon, and only after lunch had crossed the hill to reach the next town for the night.
The mother and daughter were very active along the way, and they were all in the same car. The woman claimed that her surname was Xu, her husband's surname was Shen, she was a scholar, her daughter's nickname was Ruzhu, and her hometown was in Xiazhou. The husband tried many times to get into the poor family, and last year there was a famine, and some people in Xiazhou took the opportunity to rebel and provoked the imperial court to send troops to suppress it, the two sides fought fiercely, and the people's lives were even more difficult, so the Shen family moved to Pingzhou. Before he came to Pingzhou and settled down, his husband became seriously ill, and his only little wealth was exhausted, and he still died.
Xu's words were full of emotion, Ruzhu had been wiping tears beside her and crying in a low voice to create a sad atmosphere, which moved a few little maids very much, and comforted them one after another: "My master is the most lenient, you can live a good life in the future, people can't be resurrected after death, you should mourn and change." ”
The Xu family thanked them one by one, and took the opportunity to ask about the Bai family, this is not a confidential matter, a few little maids were defenseless, and chattered, Xu's mother and daughter heard all kinds of bold tricks of the Bai family, and when they saw these little maids around them, they were also wearing gold and silver, covered in silk and satin, and their hearts were all happy.
Halfway through lunch, the sky suddenly changed, a cold wind blew, and dark clouds rushed from the sky, seeing the rain coming.
The Bai family and his entourage shouted bad luck, this is already late autumn, and it even hit a shower, and now the weather is cold, and it is not fun to be drenched in the rain.
People have to hide in the car to avoid the rain, and it is really uncomfortable, the worst thing is that the rain will definitely delay the trip, today can not catch up to the other side of the mountain, where to spend the night is a problem, but here is not the village before the store, do you have to go back to Lushan Town?
Everyone was in a hurry, and the mother and daughter of the Shen family, who had sold themselves to bury their father, suddenly stood up, and Xu said to Hongqu: "When we came a few days ago, we saw an empty mansion in the col in front of us. ”
Hongyi's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he hurriedly went to tell Yang Mei, Yang Mei was the female steward in the convoy, Bai Pingzi went to the front to open the road, and among the people in this line, she was the chief manager.
When I ran to the door of the mansion, the raindrops of soybeans had already poured down from the sky.
The mansion seems to have been vacant for a long time, and the dilapidated gate is ajar, and it looks like it is actually the residence of a large family. Entering the door is a large square courtyard, beyond this courtyard, around the shadow wall is the hall.
On the left side of the courtyard is a promenade leading to the hall, and on the right is where the carriages are parked and the horses are placed. This is the unique house design of large families in the northwest of Qi Kingdom, people can get off the bus on the side of the corridor and go directly to the hall, so as to avoid the wind and cold when the host and guests enter and exit to the greatest extent.
Because of the disrepair, a large part of the small slope where the carriage entered the courtyard collapsed, and the distance between the wheels and axles of the Bai family's carriage was large, and it was almost impossible to rush into the yard quickly.
Bai Poria and the others were the first to enter the house, and when they turned around, they saw the others running back and forth, trying to drive the carriages into the courtyard one by one, and shouted angrily: "People and horses come in to hide from the rain, and the empty carriage can still fly into the sky for a while if it is left here?!" ”
In the neighing of horses, her voice could only be heard by a few people around her, Bai Shao raised her anger and repeated the words loudly, this time the whole team heard clearly, and hurriedly did as she was told, only giving priority to driving a few carriages full of belongings into the yard, and untying the horses that had emptied the carriages and led them into the house.
In less than a quarter of an hour, everyone took refuge in the house.
The three members of the Bai family and the woman in the convoy were in the car all the time, and they didn't get caught in the rain, and they were busy when they entered the hall of the house.
Everyone was busy suddenly there was an exclamation from the backyard, and several guards hurriedly rushed over in the direction where the sound came from, and after a while, Yang Mei walked back to the hall with a pale face and said to Bai Ling: "Miss, just now the girls found a lot of tablets in a side hall in the back...... I'm afraid there's something wrong with this house. ”
Xu Shi didn't know where to get out, and said tremblingly: "It's all little women, we have asked people in Lushan Town about the origin of this vacant mansion, and I heard that the plague there killed many people decades ago, and it is not clean......"
Yang Mei was angry and said, "Then you still suggest that we come here?" ”
Xu Shi looked apologetic and cowardly, bowed his head and said: "It's the little woman who is confused, the little woman thinks it's the people in the town who are talking nonsense, and she didn't take it to heart, and she only remembered it when she heard Sister Yang say it." ”
Bai Poria stood up and said, "It's all here, what else can I do?" On a rainy day for this bastard, I'd rather stay in a haunted house than travel in the rain, we have nearly a hundred people here, what is there to be afraid of? Besides, who am I your young lady, if a ghost sees me, I have to play honestly. Walk! Let's go and see who is in the side room. ”
Yangmei originally thought that this might be a haunted house, but something was wrong, and after listening to Bai Poria's words, she felt that she was suspicious.
Bai Poria said easily, she was actually a little vigilant in her heart, she was not afraid that there were ghosts in this house, she was afraid that there would be some mechanism or a thief who had a secret plan, especially the two mothers and daughters of the Shen family, they knew that something strange was strange at a glance, so she specially hugged the little raccoon flower and took Bai Shao to the side hall together.
The Bai couple were worried about their daughter, so they also went together, but no one noticed, and the mother and daughter who shrank their heads and followed behind them secretly exchanged a smug look.
This house is very large, with five entrances in front and back, and although most of the doors and windows have been decayed and damaged, you can still see the luxurious scenery of the heyday. The side hall with the tablet is placed on the east side of the third courtyard, the location is really partial, and it is not easy for ordinary people to find this side hall after passing through this courtyard, Bai Poria secretly sneered, normal people in this place will not come over to see, someone must have deliberately lured others over.
In front of the side hall stood a little maid and three guards. The little maid's name is Lotus Terrier, and she was the one who screamed just now, and now she has completely calmed down, and when she saw the white Poria and they came over, she stepped forward and gave a salute.
Bai Poria asked casually, "When you found this side hall, were you alone?" ”
The lotus terrier shook his head and said, "Miss Ruzhu is also there, she was also scared, and then Sister Yang came, so she followed back." ”
Sure enough...... It must have been this Ruzhu who brought the lotus stalk here.
Bai Poria remained silent, walked into the side hall with her parents, and was greeted by a musty smell of poor air circulation. The hall was empty, only hundreds of tablets of different sizes neatly arranged from high to low, and the family should have a high surname.
A few people took a closer look at the entire side hall and found that there was nothing else, Bai Poria said: "I haven't heard of ghosts and know how to set up tablets for themselves, this is mostly a place for the descendants of the Gao family to worship their ancestors." We borrowed someone's house to rest and rest, so we don't want to disturb our ancestors again, so don't come to this house again. Anyway, this house is very big, even if we spend the night here, we don't have to worry about not having enough rooms. ”
That's exactly what the Bai couple meant, and everyone bowed to the tablet, then retreated and walked back to the hall. The Bai couple were also suspicious that the Xu mother and daughter were planning to do something through this mansion, and secretly signaled a few guards to carefully monitor their every move, while Mu Peilan dragged Bai Poria and whispered: "Could these two mothers and daughters be found by the woman surnamed Cui to harm you?" Hum! It's really too deceitful, we haven't done anything to her yet, but she did it first. ”
Cui Zhenyi asked Qiufeng Pavilion to name and kill Bai Poria, the Bai family heard about it more than a month ago, and Bai Poria was really Cui Zhenyi's natural nemesis, and this time was no exception.
Before Bai Chou retired to the rivers and lakes, "Coincidentally" was the number one person in the Autumn Wind Pavilion, he disbanded the Autumn Wind Pavilion that year, and took many of his former brothers to quit the rivers and lakes to start a business, so many of the old ones did not join them for various reasons, but reorganized the Autumn Wind Pavilion after many years of silence, these people chose different from the white clown, but they also talked about the old feelings, so Yang Heng was hunted down and killed in the first place in Beiguan City, and Bai Poria saved him, and the Autumn Wind Pavilion withdrew from the assassination operation, the reason is very simple - I don't want to work against the white clown. They weren't sure how good the guy who was rescued by the white ugly baby daughter had a good relationship with them, so they were in trouble, so they simply pushed off the business.
This time, Cui Zhenyi found them, and she actually asked them to kill the baby daughter of the former boss! How can this be?!
