Chapter 155: Return
Crawl out of the doorway and roll into the yard. In the courtyard, rain fell from the sky, ticking down on her face.
Yu Qi opened his eyes and shouted.
Every time she screamed, it happened that the sky was thundering, and the thunder covered her call.
When she was exhausted, the thunder stopped, and she could no longer scream. She was slumped in the rain, frightened. Turning his head to look at the door of the house, the candlelight was flickering, the white tent was fluttering, the shadows were moving, the green lid coffin was fixed there, the desk was horizontally arranged, and the three incense tripods were like a pair of big red eyes with a big black nose inserted in the middle, looking at her in a daze.
I still vaguely heard those voices just now: "Girl-mother, there is a wrong-revenge-wrong!" There is - revenge - revenge - revenge! ”
Yes, the jewel was unjustly killed, and she came to seek revenge, and she died blindly.
In front of me, I don't know if it was rain or tears, cold and hot slid down my eyes. Timidly looked inside, and those voices continued continuously, like the rain in the sky gurgling down, and it did not stop.
She wiped the water from her eyes, trying not to blur them. After wiping it a few times, it was clean and blurry again, and it vaguely seemed to see a black shadow behind the white flag, and looking up along the black shadow, a head with a cloak swaying there, cracking a bloody mouth, baring teeth and laughing.
The cold wind, inexplicably cold, penetrated her flesh and flesh, eroding her bones. She shuddered, closed her eyes and coughed.
She said, "It's not true! It's just an illusion. ”
Stop, open your eyes, and look into the room again.
Inside, it was pitch black, and the wind blew out the lights inside.
After relieving herself, she struggled to her feet, her legs still shaking unobediently. She stood still, leaned over to the door, and said, "Yes...... Is it Sister Baozhu? Sister Baozhu, are you back? Is it my sister? ”
Silently.
She thought: Maybe it's because of the fatigue of these days, and she is suspicious and blind.
Take a slight step, intending to walk towards the door. Just then, there was a "pop" on the coffin, and then something fell to the ground with a crisp crashing sound. It just so happened that the thunder was rolling in the sky, and the sky was shining, and by that light, I could see the scene inside.
inside.
The fiery red coffin was impressive, the green cloth cover that was draped over the head was lifted, and the weighing stone and scale rod that were pressed on the top fell to the ground!
Yu Qi immediately covered her mouth, gasped rapidly, gritted her teeth, and raised her feet hard, she told herself: "You have to run!" Gotta run now! ”
Running was the only way for her to escape, and it was also the way out of here.
She ran, ran lifelessly, turned around, and had no direction, and went to the door, crossed the path, crossed the corridor, and crossed the courtyard gate. Approaching the Phoenix Pavilion road, she stopped.
Looking at the Phoenix Pavilion from afar, there are lamps hanging under the pavilions, and now it is close to Shizhai, and it is really necessary to run back, but when she goes back, it is inevitable that people from Xifu will come to find her, and they will press her back to the front of the treasure coffin. It's hard to get out, of course you can't go back like this.
Immediately decided, she turned around and went outside the gate of Xifu.
On the way, I gradually saw the people of Xifu, either sheltering from the rain, walking, or getting up early to do business. Yu Qi hides every time he sees people.
At this moment, she thought: I want to go back to the mirror to thank you, I want to see Zisu, and I want to meet the old lady.
Dodging and dodging finally reached the gate outside the West Mansion, but the door was still closed and not opened. According to the daily life, it is time for the houses to get up and open the doors and clean at this time. It happened that it rained for a few days, and it was so heavy this night, that people were lazy, and they should still be asleep in the warm house and incense bed, where did anyone come out to do this drudgery.
Wet, shivering with cold and fear, she stood in the corner of her earroom, trying to keep the doorkeeper awake or beg for them to open the door and let her out.
Through the window, looking inside, the mother-in-law guarding the door was lying on the small kang and snoring, sleeping very hard.
After thinking for a while, he secretly said in his heart: "You can't call people, but if you call people, you will alarm them?" ”
So, quietly touched the door, moved the door rail, opened the door and went out.
Out of the door of Xifu, the world is vast in an instant, up and down the body, the strength is like a resurrection from the dead, the hands and feet are hot, and I can't wait to jump into the sky. She was excited, very excited.
Regardless of whether he would meet people on the road, he held his head and face high, collided with the rain in the sky, and ran along the avenue to Zhongfu.
After this toss, the eastern sky was white, and it was already early to wake up.
When I was about to arrive in Zhongfu, the rain in the sky was slightly lighter, and I looked at it from a distance, and saw that some people got up early and opened the door and came out, some came out with brooms to sweep the floor, some poured urine buckets, and some carried basins; In the middle of the hour, many people suddenly appeared on the avenue, and if they wanted to go to the street to do errands, there was an endless stream.
Seeing this, she became nervous, so she hid among the flowers on the side of the road, and when a group of people on the opposite side walked over, she reappeared, and then she appeared, and ushered in another wave. She looked at herself, she was embarrassed, it was okay to go back to Zhongfu like this, just to let the people see, it didn't hurt to lose her face, and if she lost the face of the old lady in Zhongfu, it would be a big sin, and she wanted to ask for the old lady's love, but she would have no face to beg at that time!
Thinking like this, she pondered: No! Come out quietly, then I have to go back quietly.
How's that way to do it quietly?
I remember that when she came to Kyoto, she and Sanxi went out to play, and they also quietly went out, stealing other people's clothes on the roadside to change into, and showing people with strange appearances. Now, the quiet method can be concocted as the practice of the old year, and then return to Zhongfu in a different appearance and sneak into the mirror.
In this way, you can protect your image and save the face of the old lady.
She walked around the back of the courtyard where the girls in the middle house lived. The fence of that courtyard is not high, and if you spend a little effort, you can climb it. Sure enough, she went over the wall. When they entered the courtyard, they hooked a random piece of their clothes under the porch, and put them on themselves, regardless of who they were.
I got dressed and wanted to walk, but suddenly, the door of the house where the girls lived opened, and two people came out of it, yawning with a wooden basin, and they didn't wake up.
I only heard Gao say in a daze: "Finally, God is beautiful, let us be lazy for a while, why do we have to stop raining." ”
The short one yawned and replied, "That's it! I can't come any day, but this day, blame the tossing people, so I assigned them to go, assigned us, they are comfortable by themselves, where is it fair, we will keep watch for the first night. ”
Gao said: "Dongfu is really good at pleasing the old lady, alas! What iniquity have we made? ”
As he spoke, the two of them swayed, looking at and listening to the scene of sleeping walking, so as not to make people laugh.
On weekdays, Yu Qi wanted to laugh when he saw and heard it, but now, he couldn't laugh at all, and he kept thinking about how to avoid people's ears and eyes and sneak back to the mirror. When the two of them were far away, she dodged from the corner, followed the corner aisle, hooked her head sideways, and walked forward in broken steps.
On the way, I saw a few groups of people, but fortunately, she changed her clothes, and no one recognized her.
Not far from Jinghua Xie, she was about to walk quickly to the door, when suddenly, a few people came from the outer door of the Zhongfu, holding umbrellas. Yu Qi thought that the wives from other mansions had come to Shouzhongju to greet the old lady, but she was afraid of being recognized, so she hurriedly turned her head and shrank and hid, not daring to show it.
It was only when she heard the girl's voice that she appeared when she heard the girl's voice disappear.
Immediately, she stood at the door of Jinghua Xie. I pushed the door a few times, but unexpectedly, the door was closed. Yu Qi thought to himself: Zisu is still sleeping! How do I get in when the gate is closed? From the outside, you have to go around the outer gate of the Zhongfu, the outer wall is so high, not to mention that you can't get in, even if you go out of the Zhongfu, you will already be recognized.
In the middle of hesitation, a girl from Shouzhongju came out, because she saw Yu Li's back, and asked, "What are you doing standing at the door of the girl's yard?" ”
Yu Qi's heart was stunned, her body trembled, she wanted to turn around but couldn't turn, and if she didn't turn around to respond, she was afraid that she would find her.
Embarrassed, someone on the steps of Shouzhongju beckoned: "Those in the kitchen are still quite dead, there should have been someone a long time ago, and there is not even a soul at this time." When Sister Ju'er comes, you have to talk to us again, don't stand there and talk to the door, hurry up and go to the kitchen to make a fire. ”
The girl standing behind Yu Qi responded, "What does this matter to us?" Didn't I call Zisu to help? What are you anxious about! ”
Then he heard footsteps coming this way.
Yu Qi panicked in his heart, and said secretly: It's broken! The man has come to him.
She stomped her foot ruthlessly, wanting to turn around and face the girl, but at that moment, the door opened.
It is the door that Zisu opened.
Yu Qi was unexpected, excited, and delighted. At the same time, when I suddenly opened the door, I was also frightened.
Zisu was even more shocked, so frightened that she took a step or two back, because she didn't recognize Yu Qi, she said coldly: "Genius Liang, scare people!" ”
The voice stopped, and a girl laughed and chanted behind her.
The girl said from afar: "Sister Zisu opened the door just right, I came to invite it first." Who is this? You want to take my credit. ”
The girl thought that Yu Qi was a girl and came to find Zisu.
Yu Qi took advantage of the fact that the people behind him did not arrive, and hurriedly said to Zisu: "Sister, it's me!" Pavilion! ”
Zisu heard the voice familiar, but looking at the person in front of him, it was so unfamiliar.
Yu Qi said hurriedly: "Sister! ”
At that time, the girl behind her approached.
Zisu was awakened by Yu Qi's call, and then looked at Yu Qi's face carefully, and then recognized it.
Zi Su was overjoyed, stepped out of the door, and took Yu Qi's hand.
Yu Qi took a step forward and said in a low voice: "Don't be publicized! And he flashed into the courtyard.
Zisu was afraid that the girl in Shouzhongju would catch up, so she hurriedly blocked the door and said with a smile: "Yo! I'm about to come out! What are you panicking about! I'm afraid I won't be able to escape. ”
The girl smiled, looked into the door, and said, "Who is it that went in?" Call her and she won't be me. ”
Zisu said: "Oh, last night it was raining heavily and there was a gust of wind, and the rack for drying clothes fell over, so I asked her to help me pick it up." You go and talk to grandma, and I'll come when I'm done tidying up the yard." ”
The girl said strangely: "Yesterday I said that you would help you, but those people didn't get up today." I went to the kitchen to see, and when I saw that there was no one, I wanted to inform you, so that you could go first, and don't wait for the mistake. After all, grandma is asking you for help. ”
Zi Su saluted and thanked him: "Thank you sister for coming to remind me early." Please go back first, I'll come when I go. ”
After that, he beware of the girl coming closer, lest she see the people inside, so she turned and entered the door, and quickly closed the courtyard door to death. When he heard the footsteps of the girl leaving outside the door, Zi Su turned around.
Turn around.
Seeing Yu Qi's nervous appearance sticking to the wall behind the door, his hair was wet, dressed in the clothes of a servant, covering his chest with his hands and swallowing saliva.
Zisu hugged her and said, "Why do you look like this?" Looking up and down, full of distress, he quickly pulled her into the house.
