Chapter 413: Ancestral Hall
Yu Rang has been dead for many years, and Old Man Cheng still sheds tears when he mentions him. It can be seen that he is really righteous towards his brothers.
Old man Cheng heard me praise him, smiled at me, he wiped away his tears, and said: "We men who run the rivers and lakes, our fists must be hard, and if your fists are not hard, others will bully you." But our fists are hard, but our hearts are soft, and we recognize a brother who is eager to give him our lives. ”
Mr. Lu interrupted him and asked, "How did Yu Rang die?" What did he do? ”
Old Man Cheng sighed. He stood up, walked around the room, and said, "He killed a man by mistake." ”
I asked curiously, "Who did you kill?" ”
Old Man Cheng said: "He mistakenly killed Cheng Wen and Cheng Wu's father. ”
I was stunned for a moment, and my brain turned in a circle before I reacted: "Killed your brother by mistake?" ”
Old Man Cheng hummed lightly: "Yes, he killed my brother by mistake." Although it was out of inadvertentness, but we were mixed up in the rivers and lakes, and everything had to be explained, so Yu Rang committed suicide in front of everyone and apologized. ”
I thought for a moment and said, "Last night, the one lying on the bed couldn't be your brother, right?" ”
Old Man Cheng sighed and said, "I can't think of anyone else." It should be him. ”
Mr. Lu asked curiously, "Why did he kill your brother by mistake?" What was the situation at that time? ”
Old Man Cheng smiled bitterly: "This matter has been hidden in my heart for more than 30 years. I don't want to take him out. You don't have to ask any more questions. ”
I saw that although his tone was calm, his expression was a little painful, so I couldn't force him anymore.
And Mr. Lu still looked like he wanted to get to the bottom of it: "Then I can't figure it out." Who wants to take your head? You don't seem to have any grudges with others. ”
Old Man Cheng looked at us and said, "How do I know this?" I'm asking a few of you to come over, isn't that just to help me look it up? ”
The tone of this speech was very bad, and I wanted to leave when I got up. But Old Man Cheng changed his face, he took out a paper bag from the drawer, handed it to me, and said, "A few masters will take this money first." When those demons are eradicated, I will give them to you again. ”
I looked at Mr. Lu, and Mr. Lu nodded.
Old Man Cheng was also a little happy when he saw us nodding in agreement, and he said, "Those powerful ghosts are here, and a few masters just kill them." Come one, kill one, come two, kill a pair. When the ghost is cleaned, how can you make dirty things again? This method is neat, so why look for any past grievances? ”
I sat back on the sofa in silence, thinking: Old Man Cheng has finally revealed his true face.
At noon, we had lunch at Mr. Cheng's house. Cheng Wen and Cheng Wu were still invisible at the dinner table. Mr. Lu and Xue Qian gobbled up and ate very happily, but I always felt that the vegetarian dishes were light and tasteless, and the meat dishes were too greasy. I can't eat it at all.
In the afternoon, Mr. Lu was holding a compass. Walked around the house in a pretend.
Old Man Cheng asked, "How is it?" I shouldn't have any problems with this house, right? Master Zhao had already helped me see it two days ago. ”
I'm afraid that Mr. Lu will say something wrong, in that case, my brand will be smashed.
Fortunately, Mr. Lu was quite sensible, and he said: "There is no problem in the yard. It's just that the house is a bit old. When you are old, you look old. It's not good if anything is old. In the twilight of his life, he was contaminated with death. Living in this kind of place all the time is detrimental to longevity. ”
Old Man Cheng is not a member of the Daomen, but Mr. Lu's words are very simple, and he can understand them. So he asked, "What about my house?" This is a real old house, every brick and tile can be regarded as an antique, I can't tear it down and rebuild it. ”
Mr. Lu said: "Popularity. Gather more people and live in it. When there are more people, the yang energy will naturally be prosperous, and the dead energy will naturally be suppressed when the time comes. ”
Old Man Cheng nodded and wrote it down.
Throughout the afternoon, Mr. Lu took us to see the fish and flowers, and we played all over the house.
After dinner, Mr. Cheng asked us, "Two masters, what should we do?" Is it a practice of ascending to the altar? ”
Mr. Lu shook his head, he looked at me, and said, "Come as Zhao Mang ordered yesterday." You're still sleeping in bed, and we're watching over you. ”
Old Man Cheng hesitated a little: "Master Zhao did rescue me yesterday, but those powerful ghosts don't seem to have been eliminated." ”
"That's because I didn't plan to exterminate them yesterday," Mr. Lu said. You don't have to worry about it. Tonight, I promise to do it for you. ”
Mr. Cheng agreed and led us into the bedroom. Then he honestly lay down on the bed.
Mr. Lu was simply imitating my behavior yesterday, and he began to light candles one by one on the ground.
Old Man Cheng was lying on the bed, and suddenly asked, "Mr. Lu, will you call me again after ten minutes?" ”
Mr. Lu pressed the candle to the ground and said, "This time I won't call it." None of us made a sound, and we surprised those little ghosts. ”
Old Man Cheng agreed, and then closed his eyes.
Xue Qian took out some pills from her pocket, stuffed them in her mouth, and asked the two of us in a low voice, "What should we do now?" Do you want to stay on the sidelines? ”
Mr. Lu whispered: "What are you keeping?" Let's go now. ”
Xue Qian was surprised: "Go? Right now? ”
Mr. Lu said in a low voice: "Be quiet, don't alarm Old Man Cheng." ”
Then he pulled the two of us and slipped out of the room quietly. As we passed through the gate, the bodyguards looked at us in amazement. And I said, "Don't bother us, or you can't afford to take it if something happens." Those bodyguards really didn't dare to speak. ”
After the three of us walked out of the gate, Xue Qian looked at Mr. Lu excitedly, and then gave a thumbs up: "High, really high." ”
I looked at him in amazement: "What's wrong?" How tall is Mr. Lu? ”
Xue Qian patted the paper bag I was carrying inside my clothes: "Old man Cheng gave us the money." Mr. Lu didn't want to catch ghosts, so he ran away with the money. Come without a trace, go without a trace. Isn't it clever? Anyway, Old Man Cheng is haunted by evil spirits, and it is estimated that he will not live long, so he should not embarrass us. ”
Mr. Lu waved his hand and said, "Who said I was going to run away with the money?" I came out to catch the ghosts. ”
He asked me, "Zhao Mang, where was that little temple yesterday, do you remember?" ”
I looked at the road outside and said, "Follow me, let's look for it together." ”
I took Mr. Lu and Xue Qian to search all the way, and after walking for more than ten minutes, I finally found the small temple.
I saw that the temple gate was closed, but there were two lanterns hanging at the temple gate, and by the light of the lanterns, I saw a plaque hanging on the gate, which read: Cheng's ancestral hall.
Xue Qian frowned and said, "Ancestral Hall? What did those ghosts do when they brought Old Man Chai's head to the ancestral hall? Is it someone to be sacrificed? ”
Mr. Lu suddenly took out the compass, he looked down at the compass, and then slowly walked back.
We followed him for some reason, and when we were halfway there, Mr. Lu suddenly shouted: "Come out." ”
The sudden sound of this voice made me tremble. Immediately after, I saw a face peeking out from behind the streetlights. It's the one who carries the knife.
Mr. Lu picked up the compass and asked, "Are you Yu Rang?" ”
The man with the knife looked at Mr. Lu in surprise: "You know me?" "He doesn't have that bloody murderous aura at all now, just like an ordinary lonely ghost.
Mr. Lu nodded: "It was Old Man Cheng who sued me." Brother Yu, the events of the past few days are inseparable from you, presumably you are an insider, can you tell us about it? ”
Yu Rang said hesitantly: "I don't know anything. ”
I couldn't help but say, "You saved Old Man Cheng again and again, I don't believe you don't know anything." If you are willing to tell us the truth, we will do our best to save Old Man Cheng. Otherwise, even if a few of us have the ability to reach the sky, it will be difficult to start. ”
As if moved by what I said, Yu Rang was silent for a while, and then said, "Then let's make a long story short." ”
