Chapter 32: The Guangxu Unsolved Case (Part II)

Xiuning lifted her hijab on the spot, pointed at the scholar and scolded, "Aren't you trying to make trouble?" It's a great day! ”

The scholar did not refute, but continued to persuade calmly, for a while the firecrackers on the tofu, crackling, Xiutao is a gentle person, seeing that both sides are not pleased, hurriedly pulled Xiuning and let her get on the sedan chair, the scholar saw no result, he could only sigh, picked up an apple on the table and handed it to Xiuning, "I was offended just now, this, it means peace, the rules since ancient times, Miss bring it."

Xiuning flattened her mouth, and just wanted to refuse, but was glared back by Xiutao.

Four people carry the sedan chair, a team of people greet the kiss, so mighty to the neighboring town to go, seeing the sister of the beautiful marriage, the village and scholars are also empty, embroidery pottery should be happy, but the eyelids are jumping non-stop, after drinking two tea, sit in their own patio to enjoy the cool and look at the stars, suddenly look up, but see a small figure squatting with her back to her by the flower bed.

The courtyard wall of the Hui school building is tall, and the doors of every house are locked at night, where is the people?

Xiutao is also a bold one, asking himself not to do bad things, not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door, so he walked over slowly, just wanted to see what it was, but the shadow turned around and spoke, the voice was immature but quite a sense of ease and escape.

"Embroidery girl, your sister has something to hide from you."

Xiutao was startled, and then he saw that the squatting child was one of the two brought by the scholar today, with a small face and a shovel in his hand.

"Doll, where's your father?" Xiutao took out a handkerchief and wiped his face, the child's face was round, after wiping it clean, it was even more cute, Xiutao couldn't help but pinch it again.

"You said Fu Jingchen?" The child suddenly realized, "He is not my father, he is my master." ”

"Master? What do you do? What's your name? "Embroidery came to curiosity," teaching? ”

"It's not." The child shook his head, "My name is Lu Yuanyan, and we are refiners." ”

"Complaints? Refining? Xiu Tao was even more curious, "Why is the name so strange, and the work is so strange." ”

"Far away, the inkstone of the inkstone, my master also said it was strange, but my senior brother's name was even stranger, called Chu Dao, he said that this word is very big, and the town lives with me." Lu Yuanyan shook his head, and suddenly patted his head again, "I almost forgot about business." Xiutao listened to his nonsense, and forgot what Lu Yuanyan had just said, and then remembered that the child was telling her about Xiuning.

"Look at the pit here." Lu Yuanyan turned over the soil with a shovel, revealing a few gray clumps of black powder and some white paper that had not yet been burned.

Xiutao said suspiciously, "Faith? ”

Lu Yuanyan put away the papers one by one, buried the soil again, and said, "Well, you put these away first, and everything should be clear in a while." ”

Xiu Tao flipped through the papers in a daze, but none of them were Xiu Ning's handwriting, and he could only vaguely see that it was the same content as a love letter, and he was puzzled, when there were suddenly a few violent knocks on the door outside the door, and then someone shouted, "Tao girl!" Something is wrong!! Big Tao girl!! ”

Lu Yuanyan narrowed his eyes and said, "Well, it's a little slower than I thought, let's go take a look." ”

Lu Yuanyan pulled the embroidered pottery and opened the door, there was a bearded family outside the door, such a noisy scene, the whole mansion suddenly woke up like a dream, the family was sweating profusely, panting non-stop, "Miss Tao, why hasn't your sister sent it over, this Li family has been waiting all night!" ”

Embroidery Tao was shocked, from Luoxia Village to the neighboring town is about an hour away, at noon the sedan chair down the mountain, at this hour is almost midnight, how can it not arrive?

In shock, Lu Yuanyan took her hand like a little adult, and said to the housekeeper, "Don't worry, we'll go find the bride now." ”

Outside Luoxia Village is a forest and shrubs, Lu Yuanyan led the embroidered pottery all the way to follow the route of sending relatives, stepping on the weeds and finally met Fu Jingchen and Chu Dao at a triangular fork, the two of them sat cross-legged, their eyes were like lights, and they were looking at something intently.

Torches lit all around, and bugs could be faintly heard in the woods, but there was nothing on the path they were looking at, except for the occasional jumping toad and gusts of wind.

Someone shuddered, "What are they looking at, isn't it a ghost in the way?" ”

The butler rubbed the goosebumps that had already appeared on his arm, "Don't talk nonsense, the old man has been here for so many years, and he has never heard of any goblin monsters." ”

The man shrunk his neck, "Maybe there is, you look at the yellow skins in those mountains, I don't know if there are any immortals." ”

Xiutao shouted, "Don't be sensational here! ”

Lu Yuanyan raised his head and dragged something, "Sister, it's not a yellow skin, it's a fox." ”

There are a few pinches of yellow hair on the hand, the color is very dark, and the end is a little white, the people in the village know at a glance that it is the tail of the fox, and the size of the fox is not small, Xiutao muttered in his heart at the moment, although there are many foxes in the mountains and forests, no matter how dare to run to a place with many people, not to mention that the old fox's stomach is full of turns, and it is impossible to compete with people.

Xiutao bent down and said softly, "Doll, you tell my sister where this came from." ”

Lu Yuanyan didn't play dumb riddles either, "I just went around your yard a few times, and I picked them up in front of the sedan chair." ”

"Sedan chair?" Xiutao was really panicked now, "That Xiuning?" ”

Lu Yuanyan looked at his master and brother quietly, his eyes were clear, "Don't worry, that sister is fine, the ghosts in your house can also be caught with the fox." ”

When everyone heard what he said just now, they were like taking a reassuring pill, they were all trembling, but now they all calmed down, but the sky was already dark, Fu Jingchen and Chu Dao were still sitting like sculptures, and suddenly there was a lot of wind on the road, the dead leaves were rolled up, and there were a few moans like milk cats in the darkness.

The goosebumps that had just fallen exploded again, and some people were even trembling their legs and wanted to flee back, but Fu Jingchen suddenly picked up a bronze sword from the ground and stabbed forward.

The original body of the bronze sword was covered with rust, but the moment Fu Jingchen stabbed it out, it emitted a shiny cold light, this thorn did not stab anything, but when Fu Jingchen fell to the ground, the sound of music suddenly came from the deserted forest, sometimes big and sometimes small, fluttering and flickering.

Everyone looked around in panic, and countless reddish ghost fires seemed to be burning in the forest, and at the same time, a team of relatives gradually appeared in front, the sedan chair was still the sedan chair during the day, and the sedan chair man was still the sedan chair driver during the day.

It's just that those palanquin bearers all have a blue face, their eyes are empty, they look like nothingness, and they are floating when they walk, and the whole team is stronger than in the daytime, beating gongs and drums and holding lanterns, festive but lifeless.

Finally, someone couldn't help but kneel on the ground with a "wow-" sound, "Ghost...... Ghost ......"

For a while, the crowd shouted more than once, but the team still moved forward expressionlessly, Xiutao watched quietly for a long time, her forehead was full of cold sweat, she suddenly pulled out Lu Yuanyan grabbed her hand and rushed towards the sedan chair.

She didn't have any other worries, she just wanted to save her sister in the sedan chair!

Lu Yuanyan was startled, and hurriedly called Master, Fu Jingchen frowned, and did not answer, but the bronze sword in his hand had already risen again, and it was wiped against the embroidered pottery.

Xiutao has dragged out the bride in the sedan chair three by two, and ripped off the hijab, but under the hijab is Xiuning, but it is no longer the delicate face of the day, but the miserable white without a trace of blood, the eyes are dull, and the lips seem to struggle twice before one pops out, "Sister." ”

Xiu Tao just wanted to drag her back, but the bronze sword was inserted into Xiu Ning's big red wedding robe in time, nailing her back fiercely, Xiu Ning staggered back two steps, sat down in the sedan chair, and stretched out his hand in despair, Xiu Tao just wanted to question Fu Jingchen, but felt that his clothes were hung by something.

A close one shouted in horror, "Big girl!! Come back!! ”

Xiu Tao turned his face away when he heard the sound, but his eyes widened, it was not Xiu Ning who was pulling the corner of her clothes at all, under the big red wedding dress, it was the claw of a red-haired fox, and under the phoenix crown, there was a skeleton that was still stained with dirt and fishy smell, and it had been half corrupted.
