Chapter 488: The Past of the Old House

Zhao Wan'er sent a request to be added as a friend according to Li Chuan's QQ number printed on the business card. The other party quickly passed the request, and Zhao Wan'er saw that Li Chuan's screen name turned out to be his own real name, and it was also a mobile phone online.

After Zhao Wan'er said hello to the other party, she directly identified herself. Li Chuan posted a friendly expression on QQ, and then asked, "Is Daochang Zhang by your side?" ”

Zhao Wan'er replied 'yes', and a line of words immediately appeared on the computer: "Mr. Night Terror destroyed the land in a dream, and when he woke up, although he seemed scared, he couldn't hide his excitement, because that dream gave him a lot of inspiration." ”

Li Chuan told Zhao Wan'er on QQ that the night terror was very interested in Zhang Yuanshan's ritual of pouring chicken blood to exorcise evil spirits, so he had a strange dream. Who knows, after waking up from the night's terror dream, the three of them were surprised to find that in the center of the hall, the place where Zhang Yuanshan splashed chicken blood, was indeed dug up in a mess.

Zhao Wan'er asked what was going on in surprise, and Li Chuan sent a message: "You must have read the plot of the new novel that Mr. Night Terror just coded, right?" That episode was made up by Mr. Night Terror's rich associations. However, you will probably see his latest chapter tomorrow, which is about his night digging up that bloody piece of ground. This story is not made up out of thin air by Mr. Night Terror, but a portrayal of his real dreams. It's not early, I'm sleepy, you can contact me tomorrow after reading the new chapter! Good night! ”

Before Zhao Wan'er could say a good night, Li Chuan's avatar had already dimmed.

Li Bing raised his wrist and looked at his watch: "Ah! It's really not early, Wan'er, you and Sister Shi should go back to the room early to rest. Today is June 18th, tomorrow is the 19th, and let's see what the new chapter code of Night Terror is. ”

The night was uneventful, and the next night, Zhao Wan'er inadvertently refreshed the webpage and was surprised to find that Night Terror had sent out the latest chapter of the novel two hours earlier than usual.

In the novel, it is described that after eating instant noodles at Yingzi's house, the drowsiness and fatigue are swept away. He looked at Yingzi who was smiling like a flower in front of him, and couldn't help but start showing off the glorious history of his writing.

The two talked happily, and before they knew it, it was already late at night. Yingzi yawned again and again, and the night terror said embarrassedly: "Yingzi, if you are sleepy, go to sleep first!" I can't sleep yet, and it seems like I'm going to have a burst of inspiration today, and I'm going to think about the storyline. ”

Yingzi said with concern: "Night Terror, I have already cleaned your room. Once you've conceived your story, you should also rest early, don't get tired! ”

Night Terror looked at Yingzi's affectionate eyes, his heart was full of warmth and excitement, and he got up and sent Yingzi to the door of the room where she was resting.

After the two say goodnight to each other, the Night Terror returns to his room and opens his laptop. As soon as he typed out a line, he suddenly felt that his eyelids were heavy, and he couldn't support them anymore, and he suddenly fell on the table.

In a daze, the night terror suddenly heard a burst of ethereal screams in his ears. Listening to the sound of the screams from far and near, it seemed that he was almost at his side, and the night terrors were very surprised, and at the same time he felt faintly frightened in his heart.

He knew in his heart that if he could hear the sound of a cry in the middle of the night, it must be someone who has a family doing a funeral.

Night Terror slowly stands up, and he is surprised to find that he is not in the old house of the Yingzi family (of course, this is actually the Wang family's house, and the night terror virtualizes it as the old house of the Yingzi family in the novel).

He vaguely felt that he was in the same place, but the appearance of the room had changed too much.

Blue bricks, white walls and black tiles, the whole house is a typical rich family in the Ming and Qing dynasties. He was amazed to find that there were so many people walking around the room that they didn't take him seriously, as if he didn't exist.

An old man dressed as a wealthy man at the end of the Qing Dynasty was sitting at a mahogany table, wearing a pair of expensive tortoiseshell glasses, and was flipping through an account book under an oil lamp.

The rich old man frowned from time to time, and sighed from time to time. After a while, he dismissed the others, took off his glasses, and called out slowly, "Call Steward Ding!" ”

Not long after, a middle-aged man wearing a melon skin hat and a long horse jacket with an obscene image came to the study respectfully, standing solemnly on the edge of the desk, and did not dare to say a word.

The rich old man blushed his face, threw a book of accounts in front of Steward Ding, and seemed to suppress a strong anger and said, "Steward Ding, you explain to me, where did the five hundred taels of silver on this account go?" ”

Steward Ding was extremely embarrassed, and he stood for a while, and under the pressure of the rich man, he said in a hurry: "Master, this account has not been made up for the time being." The five hundred taels of silver are because my aunt wants to buy some rouge pollen or something, so don't tell the old man first, she will use it first. ”

The rich man looked quite angry and shouted, "Steward Ding, you go and call your aunt and wife now, and explain this matter clearly in person." ”

Steward Ding said embarrassedly: "Master, it's late at night now, and my aunt is afraid that she has already fallen asleep, at this time, it doesn't seem appropriate for the little one to call her, right?" The eldest lady has also returned to her parents' house, how about waiting for the eldest lady to come home tomorrow to discuss this matter? ”

The rich man slapped the table and scolded: "Bastard thing, let you go, how can you be so noisy?" ”

Steward Ding had no choice but to leave, and in a flash of thought, the night terror had already followed Steward Ding to the wing where his aunt's wife lived.

I saw that Steward Ding gently opened the door of his aunt's room, flashed in, and said nervously, "Xiaohong, what should I do?" The old immortal has already discovered the money I secretly gave you. ”

Mrs. Aunt's face turned white with fright, and she muttered, "How should this be?" If the old immortal traces the silver and discovers our affair, I am afraid that we will all be immersed in the pig cage according to the clan rules. Steward Ding, you have an idea. Why don't we elope now? ”

Steward Ding said with a wry smile: "Xiaohong, if we run away now, not only will we not be able to get that money, but the private relationship between the two of us will be revealed immediately." I'm afraid that before we have run thirty miles, let the old immortal send someone to chase him back, and then we will both be dead. ”

Seeing this, Mrs. Xiaohong was so frightened that she sobbed softly.

Steward Ding paced anxiously a few times, rolled his eyes, gritted his teeth and said to Xiaohong: "Xiaohong, don't be afraid, I already have an idea." You just have to go and deal with the old immortal, I have my own opinion. After tonight, the two of us will go away and fly high, take the silver, and from then on stay and fly, and be a loving couple! ”

Xiaohong glanced at Steward Ding suspiciously, and didn't dare to say more, because at this time, there was already a roar of the rich lord's almost rage.

She hesitated for a moment, and slowly walked towards the rich man's study.

Steward Ding turned back to his residence, took out a boning knife from the cabinet, hid it under his armpit, and followed his aunt to the rich man's study.
