019: Vanishing bones
The carriage traveled for a long time, and Nan Zhao heard the sound of wind and snow outside the car, so he opened half of the curtain and found that they had arrived outside Qingzhou City.
She cautiously asked, "Husband...... Where are we going? ”
"You'll know when you get there!" Shen Rugu was cold, Nan Zhao didn't dare to ask again, and went all the way to the foot of the mountain nervously.
The curtain of the car opened, Shen Ru went down, and called her back: "Put the cloak on the car, and get out of the car." ”
Nan Zhao groped around and found the cloak he said, red suede, with a pattern embroidered on the collar, which was a woman's cloak.
She obediently wrapped her cloak around her body and got out of the carriage.
Outside, in the wilderness, the cold wind was raging, she tightened the cloak on her body, yawned fiercely, and then looked at Shen Rugu, the clothes on her body were much thinner than herself, as if she couldn't feel a trace of coldness.
"Let's go!" Shen ordered as such.
"Husband...... We're here ......."
Before he finished asking, the young master Shen carried the lantern, turned his head lightly, and with just one look, Nan Zhao took the sound and obediently followed.
However, although she was well-behaved on the surface, the hand under her cloak was groping for Master's rune paper in her sleeve, as well as those silver ornaments and red thread scissors to ward off evil spirits.
In this way, Shen Rugu took her to climb up the mountain, her hands and feet were so cold that she lost consciousness, and she still had to continue walking.
She looked at the man in front of her from behind, this mountain road covered by ice and snow was not easy to walk, she, who was used to walking mountain roads since she was a child, walked crookedly, but Shen Rusu's pace was light and steady, without any effort, and if she looked closely, his feet were covered in his robe, as if he was floating......
It's over, it's over!
This night, Shen Ru was afraid that she would reveal her original form, so he took her to this wilderness and ate her, unknowingly!
Thinking of this, Nan Zhao vigilantly paid attention to Shen Rugu's movements.
I saw him floating, and suddenly stopped, and Nan Zhao also followed and stopped a few feet away from the other party.
"Husband, why can't you leave?" She asked, clutching the scissors tightly in her hands.
"It's here!"
"Arrived?" She looked left and right, and it was dark everywhere, and she couldn't see anything clearly.
At this time, Shen Rugu lightly raised the lantern in his hand, and the candle flame illuminated his side face like an immortal, Nan Zhao followed the place where his lantern pointed, only to see a stone tablet in front of him, and the words engraved on the stone tablet had been covered by snow, but she could still vaguely recognize the word 'nine'.
She wasn't sure, so she asked, "Husband, what is engraved on that tablet?" ”
"Nine ditch slope!"
She was shocked, "Lishan Jiugou Slope? ”
Isn't it in the daytime, before Yang Sanfu died, told the place where Wan'er's body was buried?
She breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Shen Rugu had taken her to the mountains to commit murder, and there must be other reasons for coming here.
Thinking that at that time, he specially asked Yang Sanfu where to bury the body, and Nan Zhao's brain turned quickly, "Husband, are you here to dig up Wan'er's body?" ”
Shen Ru was silent, that is, he admitted it!
However, Nan Zhao was suspicious, "But before Yang Sanfu died, he only said that there is such a place as Jiugou Slope, I see that this mountain and forest are very big, where can I find Wan'er's body?" ”
And it's been more than ten years, and the corpse should have become a pile of bones!
Shen Ru didn't answer, just looked up at the sky.
Nan Zhao followed and looked up, the top of his head was covered by cedars, and he couldn't see anything, what was he looking at?
Then, Shen Rugu squatted down, spread his slender five fingers, put them on the snow for a while, got up and said to her, "This way!" ”
Just touch the ground, and you know the direction?
It's amazing!
Nan Zhao was afraid that some wild ghosts in the deep mountains would chase after her, so she followed closely behind Shen Ru, entered the forest without a road, and walked west for about half a pillar of incense.
"This is it!" Shen Rugu pointed to a snow pit in front of him and ordered: "Go and cut the snow away!" ”
Although it was an unfortunate job, Nan Zhao was not afraid of eliminating the disaster for the Yang family, so she immediately rolled up her sleeves and threw herself into the snow pit.
And her husband Shen Rugu stood aside leisurely and instructed: "Go deeper, use a little force......"
Nan Zhao's hands were frozen in snow, but his face was full of hot sweat, and he was red from exhaustion.
She was so tired that she discussed: "Husband, you see, I haven't eaten dinner, I really don't have the strength, can you come and help me?" ”
Shen Rugu replied indifferently: "It was you who emphasized that you were full twice, and now you say that you didn't eat, why, marry me and treat you badly?" ”
She hurriedly waved her hand and denied: "No, marrying her husband is really a blessing that Nan Zhao has cultivated for several lifetimes, and I ...... I keep digging! ”
After saying that, she continued to dig with her bare hands for a long time.
"That's it!"
Hearing this, Nan Zhao slumped aside and said, "Husband, I still have strength, I will be able to dig up the bones of that Wan'er immediately!" ”
"No need, I'm not here to dig up her bones!" Shen Rusu understated and emphasized.
When Nan Zhao heard this, he immediately sat up from the snow and asked angrily, "What?" I'm not here to dig up her bones, so why are you asking me to dig up for half a day? ”
He replied: "Confirm one thing! ”
"What?"
"Wan'er's bones have already been dug up!"
Nan Zhao looked at the snow pit under him, and clearly realized that this snow pit was there before they came, and she had been digging for a long time, and it was all snow, which was also the pit left by the person who dug up Wan'er's bones.
But that Wan'er died tragically for more than ten years, and the people who knew about it were probably the Yang family's mother and son, so who would dig up the bones?
