Chapter 223: Funeral
The Zhou family at night naturally slept well, even if there were guards guarding the night to see the fire not far away, they just sent someone to the housekeeper, and then the housekeeper also sent a few housekeepers to help put out the fire in time. The people sent out have not yet returned, and no one thought that the family that caught fire was actually the Xu family.
Bai Yitian and the housekeeper of the Zhou family were naturally familiar, and they knew that Bai Yitian came in the middle of the night and came out to greet him. Bai Yitian didn't speak, and asked with a sad face: "Is the third young master here?" Quickly invited the third young master to come out and speak. ”
The housekeeper scratched his head, still thinking in his heart, he only knew that the son of the Bai family and the eldest young master were friends, but he didn't expect that the third watch was in the middle of the night, but he came to find the third young master, and he hurriedly called someone to invite, and then invited three people into the house, and asked someone to come in and serve tea.
When San Lang heard the letter, he didn't know why, but he knew that there must be something big, so he didn't dare to delay, followed his subordinates to the living room, and smiled at Bai Yitian: "Brother Yitian, I only heard that I haven't seen it for a day, such as every three autumns, I haven't heard that I don't see it for a while, and there are also those who are better than three autumns." ”
When Bai Yitian heard this, he didn't know how to answer, the corners of his mouth trembled, he sat down on the chair and muttered, "Something is wrong!" San Lang naturally guessed that it was a big deal, but he didn't know what it was, which made this county commander, who usually laughed and scolded, so sad.
Under the candlelight, Bai Yitian's face was pale, and his eyes were straight.
Buyan gently pulled the corner of San Lang's clothes, and whispered: "Third young master, you want to mourn." The eldest young master and the eldest young grandmother ......, they are all ......, and they all go to ......"
Saburo was taken aback and interrupted him: "What nonsense are you talking about?" The eldest brother and sister-in-law are obviously resting at home, you ...... You're talking here! ”
Without saying a word, he took a step back almost at the same time, and the two glanced at each other, at this time, everyone would be crazy, and he was in the way of his identity, so it was inconvenient to say more.
"Brother Yitian, why are you ......" San Lang put down his face, this master and two servants have always been used to messing around, how can anything be used to nonsense, seeing that he was silent and silent, he frowned and said to Bai Yitian: "It's really too much to joke about this kind of thing!" ”
"San Lang ......" Where is there a joke about this kind of thing? Bai Yitian was full of bitterness, and he didn't pay attention to what San Lang said just now, "The fire of the Xu family burned ......, and no one survived......"
"What? The Xu family? Whole...... What's going on here? "The more Saburo listens, the more confused he becomes, is this a script? An Ning has always had a night watchman, if there is really a fire, someone will find out, how can he obediently let the fire god swallow up the entire courtyard?
"I went to see it just now, it's all burned down, it's all gone...... Bai Yitian endured his grief and told everything he knew about the scene.
Bai Yitian's sad face and choked voice also attracted San Lang's attention, and he couldn't help but straighten up, and his whole ears were pricked up. "Although the weather is dry and dry, the Xu family has always had a lot of taboos about fire, how can it be a fire? This is one of them. Secondly, even if there is a fire, it is impossible for all the Xu family to sleep to death, and no one will find out, right? Finally, there is another point, so many people, the fire was extinguished in time, how could no one survive? ”
Bai Yitian listened and sighed softly, who said it wasn't? The obvious loopholes are placed there, and anyone with eyes can see it, and even think of the fire in Dongsheng Village before, Nima, this person has no other means than arson?
Thinking about it like this, Bai Yitian suddenly felt that Xue Jian had said that night was on fire before, and she heard someone plotting outside the window, and he and Zhou Bo always thought that Xue Jian had heard it wrong, after all, he was so frightened that night, and the sound of the fire was complicated, and there were also mistakes. Looking back now, maybe it's all true, the speculation about the fire, not even choosing the right direction, is a little too wrong.
It's just that who would have such a deep hatred with such an ordinary person? In the past, he was just rushing to Xuejian, but now it is Zhou Boxue who sees Xu Cong'an, and he doesn't let go of any of them. It can never be the lady of the Liu family!
"Who could it be? And for what? Bai Yitian looked hateful, "Is it because of Xue Jian that he has affected Brother Bo and Xu Weng, or is he going for the other two?" What is it? What can be worth such a reckless disregard for human life, and such a reckless setting of fire? ”
"It's not just that, Childe, the whole yard is said to be burned in such a short period of time, and it is clear that fire oil and other things have been poured before burning." Needless to say.
He nodded without saying anything, and said nervously: "Those people all died the same, all in the house, and it is suspicious that no one escaped, could it be that they used drugs in advance?" ”
"I said that I still need to check carefully before I can identify the body, so the corpses of the eldest young master and the eldest young grandmother will ...... be returned to the house in two days." Looking at Saburo's appearance, he said cautiously.
Saburo was stunned, wait, wait, what the hell was he missing? At first, he thought that the three of them were just analyzing the case, and they listened to it seriously, but although he didn't expect that the more he said it, the more outrageous it became, and later, why did he start talking nonsense again. After all, Bai Yitian has a bad relationship with his brother and sister-in-law, how can he still be unobtrusive when he jokes? In any case, this matter of human nature can be mixed up? What's more, my sister-in-law is still pregnant, so I have to be taboo.
"If Bai Gongzi wants to play, just wait for my brother and sister-in-law to get up tomorrow morning, and then you can continue to play, and see if my eldest brother can tolerate you making jokes about this kind of thing!" Saburo brushed his sleeves and wanted to leave.
He can no longer listen to such a low-level vulgar and tasteless performance, although the singing and speaking are good, but it is too disgusting.
When Bai Yitian heard this, he seemed to suddenly wake up and grabbed his sleeve, "Wait, San Lang, you say, what did you just say?" Said Zhou Bo and Xue Jian, they, they, they ......"
"Childe, the third young master means that the eldest young master and the eldest young grandmother will be with us when they get up early tomorrow. Why, let's be kind enough to report the news, and they are still with us......" Silent obviously tossed for half the night, his brain was a little unconscious, he said angrily, "I think we can only blame ourselves, kindness in exchange for donkey liver ......"
Before he finished speaking, he had already covered his mouth, and the following words were covered back.
San Lang listened to it ignorantly, but the ghost sent the god to know that the three masters and servants really didn't come to the door with nothing to do with the night owl, they really misunderstood something.
When you think about it, you understand. The eldest brother and sister-in-law came back to the Zhou family, and they were also temporary, and there was no prior plan. This kind of thing is an unexpected joy even for the Zhou family, let alone a person like Bai Yitian, it is impossible to guess it.
San Lang is a smart person in the end, he explained the situation in three sentences or two, Bai Yitian almost vomited blood, this oolong is making trouble. Even if he has a good relationship with Zhou Bo, and comes to report his funeral, it is estimated that Zhou Bo, the cold-blooded young master, will not have a good face, right? However, when he didn't see Zhou Bo himself, he was worried again, after all, he had just seen the charred yard with his own eyes, and he also smelled the unpleasant smell in the air.
Therefore, let Buyan go back in person to explain the situation to the county, but Bai Yitian stayed at Zhou's house to rest. However, neither he nor Saburo could sleep, and now they are more worried, what is the cause of this disaster? And the state of affairs, will it continue to develop because the damned person is not dead?
"Tomorrow, the eldest brother will get up early for morning exercises, and then I will notify the eldest brother to come." San Lang deliberately confessed to his subordinates and was not allowed to inform his brother in advance. My sister-in-law is pregnant, and I am most afraid of fright, so I will discuss it tomorrow if there is something.
Suddenly, he was a little envious of Zhou Bolai, such a big event happened, but he could still have a good night's sleep, he and San Lang were here, and the black's eye analyzed the black's eye, and he didn't feel sleepy at all.
Who knew that the next day, the rare Zhou Bo did not get up early, and the little lady had just returned home, although she could not resist the death, but moderate affection was also indispensable. Who would want to leave their wife on such a loving morning?
But at the door, Xiaomei's hurried and low voice came: "Young Master, Young Master, get up quickly......" It turned out that Xiaomei found that Zhou Bo did not get up at the scheduled time for morning exercise, but rarely slept lazily, and couldn't help but get anxious.
"Is there something important about this?" Zhou Bo thought in his heart, when he heard Xiaomei's voice was different, he knew that there must be something important to pass on from one to another, so Xiaomei came to call the door. Thinking of this, Zhou Bo is such a calm person, and he has lost three points of demeanor. Looking at the snow in his arms, he hurriedly let go of her lightly, then got out of bed and got dressed, sped up his feet, and hurried towards the door.
Xiaomei at the door was also embarrassed, and when she thought that the angry young master might turn into a cold-faced killer, her heart thumped suddenly, Duofu, are you hurting me.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Bo himself said: "Is there something to do?" ”
"Yes, young master." Xiaomei immediately reacted, "Duofu was waiting for you at the gate of the inner courtyard early in the morning, saying that there was something important, and Bai Gongzi and the third young master were waiting for you in the living room." ”
Zhou Bo nodded, "Got it, I'll go over right away." "Although I don't understand what big things can be, but this Bai Yitian has come to the door before dawn, and it is the first time, so let's go out and meet it. After a simple grooming, Zhou Bo told Xiaomei to pay attention to Xuejian, and then she was discharged from the hospital.
"The eldest young master is early." Out of the door, along the way, there were constantly people saluting Zhou Bo, Zhou Bo just nodded, and went straight to the gate of the outer courtyard.
At the gate of the outer courtyard, Duofu, who was sweating profusely, looked nervous. "Young Master, you can come out, Bai Gongzi has been waiting for you for half the night."
Zhou Bo walked up quickly, "...... this?" ”
