170 A sinister smile
After hearing the sound, the maid Xiaohuan hurriedly put down the banana fan in her hand, got up and went to the flower road, across a clear stream, and saw the fire raging on the opposite side.
I was thinking that the fire was a big thing, and the medicine still needed to be boiled slowly, and I had to help fight the fire.
One turned sharply, his feet had not yet stepped out, his eyes were dark, and he wanted to raise his head, but he was suddenly grabbed by a strong hand on the shoulder.
After struggling a few times, to no avail, trying to raise his head was only to see the man's side face, and he hung his head silently, trembling and wishing that he would be safe.
Xiao Huan is not the exclusive maid of a certain master, what she usually does the most is to do chores, and where there is a shortage of people, she will go to help.
The maid knows and is familiar with the maid, and when a sudden situation occurs, all she can do is swallow her anger.
Enma led a group of people to the Flower Road, and at this time the fire had gradually decreased, and the firefighters and maids were still carrying buckets back and forth to fight the fire.
At a glance, if it weren't for the water to extinguish it, it really wouldn't be able to be solved by spells or witchcraft, which was clear to the Enma.
Xie Bi'an looked more carefully, but he looked at all the places that were passed by the fire, and suddenly felt abnormal.
"Don't you see the neighborhood where Hu Dayi lives?"
Enma ignored it and looked up again.
Sure enough, the Flower Road was mainly a path that led from the hut at the back.
Now that the flowers and plants around the path have been burned to the ground, what about the hut in the back?
Enma gave a look back, and strode down the scorched path to the front of the hut.
Not long ago, Chixin and I were still knocking on the door here and shouting Hu Dayi to come out quickly, and at this moment, this hut has been burned to the ground.
Stretch out a finger and it seems to be able to push it easily.
"How is it that this house burned down like this and no one came to put out the fire?" I said, expressing my doubts.
After finishing speaking, I couldn't help but gently push open the half-open door, and under my strong desire, it was only a little broken after opening.
No one answered my question, and Enma got ahead of me.
All the furnishings inside are basically unchanged from before, and if anything, they are dyed with a layer of coke.
I walked into the bed alone, thinking about what I could see outside the window.
There was no paper on the windows, only a frame, and although this was not visible at all.
"Come and see, this window is so weird?" I rubbed my eyes, wondering if I would be dazzled.
Xie Bi'an walked to Zou Zhou's side, his eyes were aimed at the window, and he reached out and pointed at the border with his index finger, and after that, the entire window frame was scattered.
The exposed side was pitch black, Xie Bi'an touched it, turned his head sideways and said, "This is a fake window. By the way, he turned his head and looked at the Enma, "Was it the same before?"
Enma didn't know much about this kind of thing, and couldn't answer it at first, but one thing was certain.
"All the decorations in the temple and in the rooms are genuine. You know, I like real things. 」
Xie Bi'an and Fan Wusu pinched their chins with one hand at the same time, looked at Enma and nodded.
"Let's not talk about the window, what about Hu Dayi?"
This is where he lives temporarily, and now that something has happened, no one is visible, and it makes no sense.
I was just puzzled, my body unconsciously fell back, and my feet took a step back.
Suddenly, it was as if he had kicked something with his left foot, and he looked down.
A hand clenched into a fist, moving a little closer to my left heel, I pointed at it and looked up, choked up, and shouted, "Look, this is a hand!"
Suddenly there was a scream, even if you didn't want to attract attention.
Xie Bi'an moved to Zou Zhou, looked at his hand carefully, and slowly,
A head poked out.
And that face is Hu Dayi, his nose is blue and his face is swollen, and there is some blood at the corner of his mouth.
"Help Me ......"
Xie Bi'an pulled up Hu Dayi, and when the Yama saw that he was scarred, he motioned to follow him to the main hall.
We all moved to the main hall, and by this time one of the guards who had come to report that the fire had been completely extinguished, and there were no casualties.
And now, we are all staring at Hu Dayi.
He was able to look at me with his eyes open, and when we were about to ask him about something, he squinted and fell unconscious.
I'm skeptical.
"Lang Zhong hasn't come yet, it's not a way for us to wait here, Zou Zhou and Chixin went to see the two maids, as for me, ......
The words have not yet been explained.
Outside the hall, a guard rushed in, and when he saw the Enma, he knelt on the ground:
"Your Highness, a strange man with a maid asked to see you. 」
"Be more specific!"
"I know the maid, it's Xiao Huan. I haven't seen that man once. 」
Hu Yi's ugly face suddenly appeared in my mind.
"Quick, get them in. 」
The guard looked up at the Enma at a loss.
"Zou Zhou, shut up! You let them in now. 」
The guard said, "Yes. He got up and quickly stepped back.
Enma didn't have time to teach Zou Zhou a lesson now, and he was only thinking about whether it would have something to do with the fire?
Just as he was thinking about it, Enma saw a man with an unappreciable appearance and a maid Xiao Huan walking in one after the other.
"Meet Your Highness, my name is Hu Yi, and I am Hu Dayi's apprentice. 」
"Your Highness asked you to introduce yourself?" Enma's tone was very unpleasant, and the style of painting was different from before.
"Yes, Your Highness, I know I was wrong. 」
Enma looked at Xiao Huan and found that she was trembling with her head buried in her body, and said softly, "Xiao Huan, what are you asking to see me?"
When his name was called, Xiao Huan suddenly trembled, and he didn't dare to raise his head at all: "Back to Your Highness, I am confessing my sins to you." 」
Enma looked to his left and right, exchanged glances with Xie Bi'an and Fan Wuxuan, and looked at Xiao Huan and continued to ask, "What crime do you confess?"
Although Xiao Huan couldn't see Hu Yi's face, when he saw his feet, he seemed to see that hideous face, and his back was cold.
"I set fire to Huajian Road and Hu Dayi's house behind. 」
"What? Xiao Huan, are you telling the truth? Aren't you boiling medicine for Xiao Xi?" I was so excited that I forgot that I didn't have a part in talking now.
Enma glanced at Zou Zhou coldly and warned for the second time.
"What is your motivation?"
「......」
Enma looked at Hu Yi with a stern gaze, "She confessed, why did you go along?"
Hu Yi cleared his throat, and there was no fear on his face: "If I go back to Your Highness, after I come out of Master's room, I will take a walk around. When I came back, I accidentally saw this maid, sneaking around the flower road, seeing the fire, I didn't think about it and caught her, I just wanted to know the truth, coerced and asked a few times, and she recruited herself. 」
"Then let me ask you, when did you come out of Hu Dayi's house?"
Yan Mo was already helpless about this, seeing that Zou Zhou's question was on point, he didn't warn him coldly, waiting for Hu Yi's answer.
"I don't know exactly when. I remember that you and the girl with a red heart came to my master and said that there was an urgent matter, and I wanted to go with him, but my master did not allow it, and then I went out for a walk. That's what I said before. 」
"You go out for a walk, who can prove it?" I gritted my teeth and stared at Hu Yi.
"Lord Zou Zhou, you have no grievances with me, how can you suspect me? If I want to harm my master, I can kill him when I am alone with him, and then flee quietly. 」
At this point, we all exchanged glances and I closed my mouth.
Enma shifted the conversation to Xiao Huan.
"Why didn't you speak?"
"I, I. 」
"Your Highness, listen to my master......
"You are presumptuous, you will say it when it is your turn to speak!"
As soon as Hu saw that Enma's face was angry, he immediately held his breath and didn't dare to speak.
"Xiao Huan, you go on. Don't make it clear, neither of you want to go back. 」
Xiao Huan gasped and raised his head slightly: "Your Highness, please allow me to explain. 」
"Yes. 」
"As you commanded, I've been in the kitchen watching the stove and boiling medicine. It was when I smelled the smoke that I went out to have a look. Before I got to Hanama Road, I found that it was on fire, so I thought about putting out the fire, but when I turned around, I was caught and unconscious."
Xiao Huan pointed at Hu Yi, looked sideways at Enma and continued, "Xiao Huan thinks, it should be him, I can't remember what happened later. 」
"Your Highness, she slandered me, and when I saw her, she was clearly sober. 」
"Who can prove it but you?"
Hu Yi said weakly, "No, Your Highness. 」
"Xiao Huan, what is the matter with your confession?"
"I, I had an unpleasant relationship with Hu Dayi before, he scolded me and beat me. Xiao Huan lowered his head and said.
"And then you turned the resentment in your heart into a fire and wanted to burn him?"
"Yes, Your Highness. 」
"Your Highness, I'm right, she also knew that a window in Master's room was fake, blocked the door, and attempted to murder my Master. Hu Yiyi looked proud.
"Hu Yi, shut up for me!"
"Yes. 」
"Do you know Hu Yi?"
"I don't know, and I've never heard Master Hu mention it. 」
"Do you know that Hu Dayi is a snail demon without a snail shell?"
The atmosphere suddenly became strange and impetuous.
"Back to Your Highness, I accidentally found out when Hu Dayi just checked in, and for this reason, the adults beat and scolded me. 」
"Okay, do you have a deal with each other?"
"No, my lord just warned me that if I said it, I would never be able to speak. 」
"You've never been to his room since, haven't you?"
"Yes, Your Highness. 」
"He didn't let any of the maids serve him, did he?"
"That's right. 」
Hu Yi's face changed suddenly, and he took out a knife from his cuff with a dark smile.
