Chapter 509: Dreaming of Flowers Blooming
Seeing that the corpse was clearly floating on the water, but I could not pull it back, I suspected that something was holding the corpse under the water, and I would not be able to pull him up.
Sure enough, just as I was thinking this, a tremendous force came from the corpse's body. Trying to pull me down from the boiling water, I quickly let go of the rope.
"Smack!" The rope sank into the water in an instant. The withered lotus leaves in the lake began to swing violently, and a deep layer of yin qi shrouded in the surface of the lake.
The next second, I saw a pair of pale hands reach out of the lake and rest on the corpse floating on the lake. In the pale moonlight, the hands were extremely white, very beautiful. The commander is dead.
The pale hands appeared, and then, long black hair floated out of the lake. In the darkness, a woman propped up the corpse and emerged from the bottom of the water. Although the woman floated up from the surface of the lake, she did not have a drop of water on her body.
"Yes...... It's her! "When I saw the woman clearly, I took a deep breath, and the woman in the center of the lake looked exactly like the corpse floating in the water. She was the ghost of the female corpse.
The female ghost in the lake quietly looked at me, her eyes were full of coldness, and the slightest glance made people shudder.
And at this moment I found that the female ghost in the water was wearing a red brocade silk, and in the dim moonlight, she seemed to be wearing a blood-red dress.
There are also many types of ghosts, including water ghosts, charming ghosts, and decapitated ghosts...... Among them, the water ghost is a powerful ghost, and this ghost is still wearing a red dress, and I am afraid that it will be a little troublesome for me to deal with this ghost.
The female ghost looked up at me quietly, and I was wary of her attacking me when suddenly she opened her mouth wide open. He bit his corpse in the lake with a single bite, and tore off a piece of human flesh with a brush.
I was taken aback by the ghost's move, and I didn't know what she was doing.
"Ghosts eat corpses!" It was at this moment that the voice of promise sounded behind me.
I turned my head to look behind me, only to see Huairou who was wrapped in a blanket and walked over, looking closely at the female ghost in the lake.
"What is a ghost eating a corpse?" I asked.
Xu Yue turned his head to look at me and said, "Some good people choose to swallow their own corpses after they die, fearing that their corpses will hurt their families. And some ghosts with great resentment, because they died unexpectedly, in order to enhance their mana. will choose to devour corpses! ”
As we spoke, the female ghost had already gnawed off the head of the female corpse. The entire lake was covered with disgusting blood and the contents of the brain.
In less than half a moment, the female ghost had already gnawed off most of her corpse, and bursts of blood floated on the lake. After the female ghost swallowed the whole corpse, she raised her head and looked at me, she stretched out her hand and gently wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, and said to me, "Mr. Ye, come ......"
I was stunned for a moment, and I was about to walk forward. Xu Yu grabbed me and said, "Senior brother, don't go over, this female ghost is not something we can provoke." ”
"Mr. Ye, the Yongle Mansion is about to be destroyed, do you want to leave alive?" The female ghost looked at me quietly and said.
"What happened to the Yongle Mansion?" I signaled to my senior sister that I would be fine, took a step forward, looked at the female ghost and asked.
It was only at this moment that the female ghost suddenly disappeared from the surface of the lake, without saying a word, leaving only the ripples in the center of the lake.
"What's going on? Why did the female ghost suddenly disappear again? "I'm so weird.
"Amma, someone's coming!" At this time, I only heard Huairou speak.
After hearing Huairou's words, I turned around and looked behind me, only to see that in the stone path in front of me, Le Qing walked towards this side.
Le Qing, why did he suddenly come here?
"Huh? Mr. Ye, Miss Xu, why are you two still in the lotus pond so late? After Le Qing saw me and Xu Yue, he also showed an extremely surprised expression on his face, and asked.
"We couldn't sleep, we happened to be closer to the lotus, so we went out for a walk! Master, you live in the back garden, why did you come so far? I asked.
Le Qing said: "I just had a dream, I dreamed that the lotus pond was blooming, and I woke up from the dream, so I came to take a look. ”
When the lotus pond blooms, Lejia will suffer a catastrophe, these are what Le Hao told me during the day.
"I think about it day and night, I am afraid that it is because of Ye's arrival that the eldest young master feels panicked, so I feel that the lotus flower has bloomed at this time!" I said.
Le Qing hurriedly said, "Mr. Ye, where did you say?" Mr. Ye specially brought my little sister here, and used the seven-vein acupuncture method to save my little life, how could I feel panicked. After speaking, Le Qing walked to the edge of the lotus pond, looked at the lotus pond quietly and said, "Mr. Ye, children are easy to catch a cold at night, you better not take the child out of the outside at night!" ”
"Thank you for the reminder, I'll take the child back." After speaking, I walked to my sister's side, stretched out my hand and took my sister's hand, and walked back.
Halfway through, I pulled my senior sister to hide in a quiet place and looked in the direction of Le Qing.
Under the bright moonlight, Le Qing looked at the lotus pond like this, and there was no longer the smell of decay in the air. After a long time, I only heard Le Qing breathe a long sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately, it's just a dream!" ”
After speaking, Le Qing turned around and left.
"Senior sister, do you think there will be a connection between Le Qing and that female ghost?" I asked, turning my head to look at Promise.
Xu Promise shook his head and said, "I don't know, that female ghost is very strange, I don't know if it's a good ghost or a bad ghost!" ”
I said, "I don't know, but I do know that the female ghost can't help us for no reason...... This Lejia mansion is very strange and strange, let's take a look tomorrow! ”
"That old man in Lejia is obviously avoiding us, we can't take one step at a time, wait to find a way to force that old man out!" Senior sister said.
"Forcing the old man out?" I was stunned for a moment, if you want to force the old man out, you have to do something out of the ordinary, but if you do something out of line at Lejia, you will inevitably fall into a bigger dispute.
Senior sister said: "Senior brother, I don't know if your eyes are better, you can't drag on like this, you have to let the old man of the Lejia come out and show you those eyes!" ”
Hearing my sister's words, my heart was extremely moved, it turned out that my sister had been worried about my eyes that had been poisoned by Tongyu, just like I was worried that my sister had been poisoned by thousands of Gu poisons.
"Let's go, I'm going back and figuring out a way!" I saw that Huairou was a little sleepy, so I spoke.
Just as we were about to leave, there was a sound of footsteps from the trail in front of us, and I crouched down again, who had just stood up.
Then, in the moonlight, I saw two figures, one fat and one thin, and walked out. The fat man was wearing gold and silver, and it was Le Qing's daughter-in-law Wang Jinfeng. And the other person turned out to be happy.
Seeing Le Xin and Wang Jinfeng walking out together, I felt extremely strange in my heart, what do these two people want to do together?
"Sister-in-law, didn't you let Ye Cheng die today? Why are you so slow to do it? Lexin said.
"Little brother, you are also too anxious, there are so many people around him every day, how can I start?" Wang Jinfeng said.
Hearing the conversation between the two people, my brows furrowed, these two people actually conspired to kill me?
Le Xin took a deep breath and said, "After dawn is the last chance, I have a way to ensure that Ye Cheng will die without a place to be buried!" ”
Wang Jinfeng said: "What way? ”
Le Xin turned his head and looked at the lotus pond, the corners of his mouth curled up with a sneer, and said: "Tomorrow is the last day for Ye Cheng to save Ping'er, and it is also the most important day...... Don't want to be thin in his life! ”
"You...... You...... Are you talking about framing Ye Cheng and causing Ye Cheng to deliberately kill Le Ping'er? After Wang Jinfeng heard Le Xin's words, his voice began to tremble, and he said, "But...... But Le Ping'er, after all, she is a member of our Le family, how can we kill her? ”
"Sister-in-law, during the day today, the second sister-in-law went to find Ye Cheng, do you know?" Le Xin said suddenly.
"I know, what's wrong?" Wang Jinfeng asked.
Le Xin smiled lightly and said: "Sister-in-law, you also know that the second sister-in-law is quite scheming, maybe the second sister-in-law has already won over Ye Cheng, and after saving Ping'er, Ye Cheng will let Ping'er say good things about the second brother in front of the old man, you also know that the old man has always listened to Ping'er's words very much, and ...... when the time comes."
"No, no, it won't!" Wang Jinfeng was obviously a little nervous, and said: "Mr. Ye promised me that he would not help anyone, and he would not participate in the competition for the head of the Le family." ”
"Promise?" Lexin looked at Wang Jinfeng with a sneer and said, "Can the promise count?" Sister-in-law, think about it, even if the old man is blind and chooses the second brother to be the head of the family, I will stand on the side of the eldest with my cronies, what can the second brother do with us? But if Ping'er is involved, it will be different, so only by killing Ping'er can we win! ”
"Do you want to kill Le Ping'er so much?" Wang Jinfeng looked at Le Xin in front of him with a puzzled face, and asked.
Le Xin shook his head and said, "I don't want to kill Le Ping'er, I want Ye Cheng to die!" ”
"Is it any good for you that Ye Cheng is dead?" Wang Jinfeng asked.
Le Xin said: "Of course there are benefits, because I have taken a fancy to his senior sister Promise, as long as Ye Cheng is in danger, I am promising to help her rescue her junior brother and trick Promise into my room...... When the time comes, the raw rice is cooked and the rice is ripe, hehe! Speaking of this, a lewd smile flowed from Lexin's face.
When I heard this, I was so angry that I wanted to rush out and beat Le Xin hard, but in the end I held back.
I grabbed my fist and said coldly, "You will regret the idea of daring to beat my senior sister." ”
"Senior brother...... Let's go back, this Lexin dares to frame his junior brother, and I will definitely not let him have a good life. Xu Promise said.
It was another morning, Steward Shao called us to the "Lingxiangtang" to eat as usual, and in the process of eating, Wang Jinfeng looked at me with a complicated face, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Sister-in-law......" At this time, Le Xin suddenly called Wang Jinfeng.
Wang Jinfeng turned his head to look at Le Xin and said, "What's wrong with my little brother?" ”
Le Xin said: "I heard that my sister-in-law had some gold and silver jewelry and money stolen from her house yesterday, right?" ”
"Hmm!" Wang Jinfeng said "um".
Le Xin said: "It's not an ordinary small thing that there is a thief in this Lejia, so in the past two days, I specially sent someone to check everywhere and caught the thief!" ”
"Oh? Third brother, you actually caught the thief? After Le Qing heard Le Xin's words, he also looked over with interest.
When the other servants of the Le family mansion heard Le Xin's words, they all turned their heads to look at Le Xin.
What the hell is this happy person trying to do? I stared at Le Xin tightly, waiting for his next words.
