The thing didn't move at all, it seemed to be just an ornament, quiet. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Shen Xingyue stood aside and watched for a while, then suddenly stretched out her hand and grabbed the corner of the black cloth, as if she wanted to tear off the black cloth to see what was inside.

There should be no one in the house, but as soon as Shen Xingyue stretched out her hand, suddenly a voice beside her said, "Young grandma, please don't do it." ”

As soon as she turned her head, she didn't know when a girl was standing in the corner, and it was she who stopped Shen Xingyue by speaking out.

That girl is also green, according to her clothes, she should be one of the four big girls next to Old Madam Xiao, but the strange thing is that Shen Xingyue didn't see her when she came in just now, even if she was standing behind a bonsai in green, she wouldn't be so nonexistent.

Shen Xingyue looked her up and down and said, "Who are you?" ”

"The slave is Cui Yu." The girl was also respectful: "Young grandmother, this is the old lady's favorite pet, and no one is allowed to touch it." Even the slaves and maids can't see it, please forgive the young grandmother, otherwise the old lady will come back and scold. ”

"Oh, I see." Shen Xingyue withdrew her hand, but her gaze remained on Cui Yu: "You just now, have been standing here?" ”

Old Mrs. Xiao is naturally indispensable to her side, but the girls in Xiao's mansion are all plain dresses with bright colors, and only a few around Mrs. Xiao are around. And the seat she was standing in was next to the old lady, and she shouldn't have seen it anyway, wasn't she blind?

"Yes." Cui Yu lowered her head and said: "The slave maid has always been here, she has never left, and her voice is abrupt, which scares the young grandmother." ”

"Well, I'm not scared, it's just a little weird." Shen Xingyue touched her chin, looking thoughtful, looking at Cui Yu for a long time, and the Cui Yu head was almost low to her chest, so she said: "Okay, the old lady doesn't like people to move, so naturally I can't move." I'll go back first. If the old lady has something, call me again. ”

Cui Yu blessed Shen Xingyue, and stepped back again, standing behind the green bonsai, not to mention that it was really not easy to find if you didn't look carefully, it really seemed to be invisible.

Shen Xingyue smiled, seemingly intentionally and unintentionally: "The weather in Windy City has been really good these days, the sun is shining brightly, if you are okay, persuade the old lady to go out for a walk often, and people should bask in the sun more." I always hide in a dark room, and after a long time, I become a bloodless shadow, am I right? ”

The leaves shook slightly, and then everything fell silent again. Shen Xingyue walked out of the door, and outside the door, the sun was indeed shining, which made the people bathed in the sun feel extremely comfortable.

The door closed again, and with a snap, the two worlds were separated, and the shadow was locked in darkness again, and it was impossible to escape.

When Shen Xingyue returned to the courtyard, it was already noon, Xiao Mo naturally hadn't come back yet, and the girls saw her enter the door unscathed, and they all showed a sigh of relief. Although it was not so obvious, Shen Xingyue immediately felt it.

"What's wrong?" Shen Xingyue said a little strangely: "What's wrong?" ”

She just went to Mrs. Xiao's yard, why did they all have the expression of entering the wolf's den and tiger's den, although that weird garden was not much better than the wolf's den and tiger's den, but that shouldn't be something that everyone knows.

"It's okay, it's okay." Most of the girls didn't dare to speak, only the girl who came over to marry was bolder in front of her, and after following into the house, while pouring tea for Shen Xingyue, she added: "I just heard from them, there has been some unrest in the Xiao Mansion recently, and there are always people who have accidents, and there are ...... accidents."

Su'er lowered her voice: "The people who had the accident, in recent times, have more or less been to the old lady, or have had contact with the girl next to the old lady. Or, Steward Lin has looked for ...... Young grandma, I think there is something strange in the Xiao Mansion, you better be careful. Especially when the young master is not there. ”

"En......" Shen Xingyue pondered for a while, and said: "I know, the people in our courtyard also say hello, nothing special, don't run around in the house, if someone from the old lady's side comes to look for it, when I or the young master is at home, you must tell us first." If we're not there, it's best to find some reason to prevaricate. ”

Old Madam Xiao's place, it is better for ordinary people not to go, after all, in that garden, in that well, she did see a lot of corpses and bones and the souls of ordinary people. However, the Xiao Mansion is huge, and the Windy City is not a place with strict security, whether it is a homeless man or a beggar, or a girl who is sold into the mansion, as long as it is not too much, no one really cares about the missing few.

Su'er listened to what Shen Xingyue said seriously, and nodded again and again in agreement. She was originally timid, but she has heard a lot of rumors of this kind and that in the past few days, she even dare not sleep.

Shen Xingyue turned the turquoise bracelet on her wrist and said, "By the way, you go to the kitchen and get me a bowl of black dog blood." ”

"Black dog blood?" Su'er was a little strange and said: "Why do you want black dog blood, will there be that in the kitchen?" ”

In the kitchen of a large family, there are many kinds of materials, meat and vegetarian, and there must be a lot of preparation. Chicken blood, duck blood, pig blood, maybe there are all there, but dog blood, but black dog blood may not be, how does it sound, that thing is used to drive away evil spirits, not to eat.

"Just get it, you don't care what you do." Shen Xingyue waved her hand: "Don't ask when you see someone, quietly go to the deputy steward or something, give him money, it's okay, it's better to have a shortage than to overuse." ”

Su'er is still young, and she is married over, in Xiao's mansion, naturally Shen Xingyue is her only backer, whatever she says, it is what she is, although she was puzzled, she still took the money and went.

Shen Xingyue waited quietly in the house, the things in the garden were not small, Lin He and they wanted to demonstrate to themselves, but they didn't expect that stealing chickens would not make a loss of rice, and they must be jumping like thunder. And at the same time as the thunderstorm, doubts, panic, and resentment must be the same.

Shen Xingyue sat on the bed, her legs dangling in the air, she kind of hoped that Xiao Mo would not come back tonight, Old Madam Xiao and Lin He would definitely not give up, so tonight, it will definitely be very lively.

Su'er came back not long after she went, although she was empty-handed, but she brought the news that Shen Xingyue was satisfied.

"Miss, the kitchen said that there is no ready-made black dog blood, but you can go find it." Su'er said: "I looked for the aunt who bought it, she said that there is no problem, she can find it in the afternoon, and after finding it, no one will say anything, and I will send it to you directly." ”
