Chapter 8: Shock

It was cold in the middle of the night, and the sky was covered with fine snow. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The atmosphere in the room was very tense and depressing, and so far, everyone had no other way but to wait until dawn tomorrow morning to go back to Yizhuang to have a look.

Feng Tao's emotions stabilized, she promised Master He that she would never reveal half a word, in fact, even if Master He didn't tell her, Feng Tao would never say it, because her eldest brother Wang Min was her life, and she was the person she had spent most of her life trying her best to protect.

Shen Xiuwen looked at her sad expression, although he couldn't bear it, after a few struggles, he finally asked, "Second aunt, why didn't you tell your father about you and your eldest brother?" ”

Tears flowed uncontrollably, Feng Tao gently wiped the corners of her eyes, took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and seemed to have a hint of determination in her tone.

"I and Wang Min are brothers and sisters, and I hid it from your father, it's my fault, but I can't help it, I'm not hiding it from your father alone, but everyone in the world."

Shen Xiuwen listened to her words, and there was a trace of emotion in his heart. He suddenly felt that the second aunt on weekdays and the woman in front of him were like two people, but in fact, they were the same person.

Feng Tao opened his eyes, stood under the eaves, looked at the snowy night, and said in a light voice: "My real name is Wang Ruoyan, and I was originally from a famous family, but my father was killed by traitors in the court, the Wang family fell, and I was reduced to the Qinglou, and my eldest brother and second brother could only go to the bridge as a coolie, the second brother couldn't stand the scorching heat, and died of a serious illness, I swore that I must not let the eldest brother suffer anymore, I gave all the money earned by the Qinglou to my eldest brother, although the eldest brother was unwilling, but he couldn't resist my temperament." ”

When Feng Tao said this, his face was already full of tears.

Later, the new emperor ascended the throne, the Wang family was unjustified, and the eldest brother was also re-hired and appointed as a Confucian teacher. But I can't go back, after so many years in Qinglou, I am no longer Miss Wang, my stigma will only affect my eldest brother's career, and I was already married to your father at that time, so I forced me to die and did not allow my eldest brother to tell our relationship. ”

Shen Xiuwen silently listened to her talk about the past, and his eyes unconsciously showed a little respect. If the second aunt hadn't told him personally, he probably wouldn't have believed that a woman from a dusty background had tenacity and faith that ordinary people couldn't match.

A woman, when there is a great change in the family, can still sacrifice everything she has in exchange for the safety of her family, just by virtue of this, this woman deserves everyone's respect.

Therefore, many things cannot be just looked at the surface, perhaps behind this, it is the truth that a person has hidden with his life.

Feng Taosheng burst into tears, and his face became more and more pale, "However, the eldest brother is no longer there, he is gone, he is ashamed of his father and mother under Jiuquan, and he is ashamed of the ancestors of the Wang family." ”

Shen Xiuwen sighed slightly and comforted her: "Second aunt, it's not your fault, you've done a good job." ”

Feng Tao shook his head while crying, "No, it's my fault, it's my fault, my eldest brother came to visit me when he returned to Huaixian this time, but I didn't see him, so he went to his classmate and friend Master He, if it weren't for my stubborn temperament, my eldest brother wouldn't have had an accident." ”

Shen Xiuwen didn't know how to persuade her, Wang Min had only had a few encounters with him, and he didn't have any friendship, so he wouldn't have much feeling about Wang Min's passing, but looking at Feng Tao's desperate appearance, he was touched in his heart, and couldn't help but feel a trace of pity and unbearable.

He couldn't interject, so he had to stand under the eaves with her for a while. Feng Tao stopped crying and stopped talking. Shen Xiuwen accompanied her quietly until the wind and snow stopped and dawn broke.

Everyone stayed up all night, preparing to leave for Yizhuang as soon as the morning dawned.

As soon as he walked out of the farmhouse, he saw a middle-aged man dressed as a subordinate running over in a hurry, and whispered something in Master Yang's ear.

I saw that Old Man Yang's expression was frightened, and his shriveled lips opened in surprise, and it took a long time to close them tremblingly.

Seeing that his expression was wrong, Master He frowned and asked, "Old Yang, what happened?" ”

Master Yang didn't understand for a long time, and finally he said "It's okay", but anyone can see that Master Yang has something to deliberately hide from everyone.

After a moment of silence, Master Xu, who had always been silent, asked, "Did you find the shadow?" ”

When Master Yang heard this, his whole person trembled violently, and the subordinates next to him hurriedly supported him.

"You're talking!" Master He looked at him in a trance, and he didn't reply for a long time, and couldn't help urging eagerly.

Master Yang closed his eyes, his fatigue was extremely heavy, and he finally stabilized an old bone before he said, "It's not that the shadow has been found, but it's gone." ”

"What!" When Liu Da'an heard this, he pushed aside the people who were in front of him and exclaimed, "How could the shadow disappear?" ”

Master Yang was silent, everyone was confused, only Master He and Master Xu understood the meaning of these words.

The sky was full of dark clouds, black gas was circling, Master He looked up, retracted his gaze and sighed, and shook his head: "Old Yang, why are you so confused!" ”

Old Man Yang had tears in his eyes, and his voice trembled: "My eldest brother died early, there is only one daughter like her, she can't die, she can't die, please, please save her!" ”

Master Yang was so excited that he almost knelt on the ground.

Master He said in a sad tone: "I don't feel sorry for my daughter, but she is already dead and can no longer stay in the world, and Ying'er is also dead, you lock her up in the house, this is against the way of heaven!" ”

"No, she's not dead, she's not dead, she can still talk, she can laugh, she didn't kill people, she doesn't remember anything."

Old Man Yang roared hysterically, and Old Man He shook his head with tears, "Old Yang, you are really confused!" You're going to kill more people. ”

It turned out that Master Yang didn't want his eldest brother's only daughter to be buried in the coffin, so he locked Miss Yang in the house, but told Master He and Master Xu that Miss Yang disappeared after killing her subordinates. In fact, Miss Yang has always been in the Yang Mansion.

And now that Miss Yang is really gone, Master Yang can't hide it and has to tell the truth.

Things have come to this point, and everyone's hearts are very heavy. The top priority is to find Yang Ying'er as soon as possible, and He Mansion and Xu Mansion also sent nursing homes to help find her.

And Yizhuang's side could not be delayed, everyone immediately set off, and after half a stick of incense, they arrived at the top of the mountain.

There are two red lanterns hanging on the two big red pillars in front of the gate of Yizhuang, which are blown by the wind, and the lanterns are shaking. Although the sky was already bright, the sky over Yizhuang was covered with dark clouds, cold and dark, and you could vaguely see the burning sparks in the lanterns, swaying and jumping.

The two dilapidated doors creaked and creaked in the wind, and the atmosphere was very eerie.

Seven or eight men were the first to go in to investigate, and after a while, suddenly one of the men ran out of it in a panic, shouting as he ran: "Oh no, no, the body is gone." ”

Master He was shocked, "You make it clear." ”

The man gasped and explained, "Miss He, Miss Xu, and the other five male corpses, a total of seven are all gone!" ”
