Chapter 42: The Girl in the Red Jacket
When the troops of Chief Li surrounded the girl in the red jacket, the chief manager did not rush to do anything. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
In the short silence, Mr. Li, a powerful man in the Qing Palace, miraculously maintained a respectful smile at the little girl, and even ...... And with a little bit of humility.
However, this situation did not last long, and was soon interrupted by a little eunuch who came in a hurry.
That little eunuch, Da Grober knew very well, and he was the one who spoke for Lafayette just now.
After the little eunuch hurried through the encirclement of the armed guards, he came to the front of Chief Manager Li again, and then attached himself to the ear of Chief Manager Li, muttering something to him quickly.
What did the little eunuch and Chief Manager Li say? Mr. Big Radish certainly has no way of knowing, but according to his records, this Chief Manager Li frowned tightly after learning the meaning conveyed by the little eunuch, and when the eunuch who gave the order finished his last sentence, he nodded slightly.
After the little eunuch finished narrating everything, Manager Li waved his hand to push the little eunuch down, and then he raised his head and made a frightened gesture at the girl in red.
After extremely humble etiquette, Chief Manager Li opened his mouth and asked the girl, "The Nineteenth Master is here for those bowls this time, right? ”
To this, the girl in red simply replied, "Seven...... No one is missing. ”
In this regard, Manager Li immediately nodded, and resolutely and solemnly responded: "Definitely!
While speaking, the number one eunuch of the Qing Palace, who had never served Lafayette alone, and even Emperor Guangxu did not dare to use it, actually made a stunned move by the ministers of other countries.
He actually groveled, walked up to the little woman in the Han red jacket and red clothes, bent down at ninety degrees, stretched out his hand, and ...... for her Caused by the road.
This used to be the exclusive treatment of the Queen Mother!
Listening to Mr. Li's words, and watching Mr. Li's extremely humble movements, all the people present were blinded, but the girl did not have the slightest surprise and discomfort.
After nodding her head with a smile, she accepted the humility and guidance of General Manager Li very calmly.
After that, under the guidance and service of Chief Administrator Lee, the girl slowly left the whole hall under the escort of heavily armed soldiers, and finally left only Mr. Dagrob with a deep, blood-red back.
For that back, the memory of the big radish was so deep that he wrote in particular: "...... With a high head and a slender and white neck, like a crane unique to China, with the grace and majesty that surpasses the ladies of the court, this girl who makes the chief steward grovel is more like the master of this royal garden than the empress dowager who fled in embarrassment......"
After that, the whole church broke up, but before the church ended, our big turnip observed a strange and puzzling imagination......
It turned out that at this moment, he found that just before those attendants escorted the girl in red to leave, they had specially packed up the little monkey brought by the girl in the red jacket.
The soldier was not a mechanic and had no mercy for the delicate work of art, so he was dragged along by only two soldiers.
During the whole process, the monkey, which had already been dismantled from its protective shell, could not withstand the destruction of the soldiers, so every time it touched the uneven ground and steps, some exquisite parts and decorations were scattered.
But after two or three bumps, the most unbelievable scene happened.
The Mr. Robert was stunned to see that in the core of the little monkey...... Bright red blood flowed out.
The blood seeped out of the puppeteer's body as the soldiers dragged it, and finally dyed a crimson "blood silk" out.
The people who saw all this were terrified and sorry for the disintegration of the puppet, and the man beside Rob had a complicated expression, and he had the courage to reach out and touch some blood and sniff it between his nostrils.
In the end, the doorman who styled Thunder only said four words, "Walking Corpse Puppet......
...... At this point, Shopkeeper Tong sighed and repeated the words "walking corpse puppet" again.
He looked at me with a frown, and explained: "Later, I checked, this kind of walking corpse puppet, that was in the former Qing Dynasty, spread in the east of Shandong, Zhejiang and Jiangxi, the origin is unknown, only known to be able to charm people's hearts, and Xiangxi to drive out the corpse has a little relationship, when the Boxers were reckless, they were also used by red lights to deal with foreigners!"
After hearing this, I was silent for a long time, feeling that my worldview had been greatly impacted again.
Listening to the chat of the shopkeeper, I found that I could get some important news intentionally or unintentionally after a while, and this time I heard two familiar words through his words.
The Nineteenth Master and a wooden box filled with the sand and soil of the dolls.
The doll box, judging by all indications, was undoubtedly similar to what my landlord, Mrs. Gao, had dug up. I can even say that the thing that Mrs. Gao released is similar to the "walking corpse puppet" I saw on Cixi's birthday. Moreover, in addition to the mechanism, this puppet has something that modern science cannot explain, and acts as a "brake device" in it.
I have a lot of questions about this, and the attack of the big colored dragon I met this morning is obviously something similar to a puppet.
I feel that some of my actions have hindered the interests of someone who will use the trick of "walking corpse puppet", and furthermore, this person is probably the "old friend" I know well...... Yin nineteen!
And the story of this Yin Nineteen reached a climax with the record of this big Mr. Radish.
I knew that she had appeared in the former Qing Dynasty, it was in a hallucination presented by a sword spirit, and it was not a real historical fact, although I heard Zhao Haipeng tell the story of this person again, and saw his back in the surveillance data given to me by Ge Fugui, but it was all scratching things from boots, and they could not be counted as evidence.
And this time, when I heard the name "Nineteen Masters", it was a real record of an Italian historian, who recorded a collision between the Nineteen Masters and the supreme ruler at that time, the Empress Dowager West, more than a hundred years ago.
Obviously, the Nineteenth Master wanted to use the special habits of the Empress Dowager of the West to get close to the empress, but at the last moment, it fell short because of the discovery of Chief Manager Li, as for the reason why she wanted to get close to the Empress Dowager...... It's because of the seven bowls.
What are the uses of those seven bowls, I don't know, and I guess no one will know, but judging from the various performances of this nineteenth master, she does have some kind of continuous relationship with the Manchu royal family.
Moreover, as a woman, why did Chief Manager Li insist on calling her the Nineteenth Master? And if this Nineteenth Master was really just a woman, why did he appear as a man several times?
For this person, I found that I was so desperate to know the secrets and answers about him, but no matter what the answer was, I felt that this person was ...... It has become a terrifying, eternal mystery in my heart!
