Chapter 116: Humiliation

The daylight was very strong, and the flowing water under the small bridge was a little sparkling, Su Yan nodded and said, "Go and have a look." Le-wen-"

Although I don't know if Yuqing is friend or foe, there should be some danger!

Yuqing smiled and walked to Su Yan's side, and the two followed the source of the sound to behind a fan-shaped stone door.

"God, the dumb slave died a miserable death. A man on the lookout shook his head.

There were some subordinates everywhere, and the women were too timid to go in and look around, so they had to stand far away and talk about it.

"Is it really a dumb slave?" said one of the men in a blue shirt, frowning.

"Why not?" said the man who said that the dumb slave had died miserably, "Why not, don't you see that the dumb slave has a black birthmark on his hand, you see, isn't it." ”

There were still a lot of onlookers, Su Yan and Yuqing could only see a corpse lying there, but the rest couldn't see anything.

"Second lady. Suddenly, a maid in the crowd turned around, her expression slightly surprised, and then she saluted.

When the rest of the people heard this, they all bent down and said, "Second lady." ”

Su Yan noticed that there was a woman wearing a purple double butterfly waist dress, a wisp of the same color streamer fluttering between her wrists, and her green silk was embellished with some tassels, which looked extravagant.

The second lady looked around a little arrogantly, but at this time, she saw a corpse lying there, she frowned, reached out and took off a silk handkerchief embroidered with butterflies from her waist and covered it on the tip of her nose, and said with a little disdain, "It's really unlucky." ”

Everyone in the house knew that the second lady was the most unfortunate thing, and everyone hurriedly gathered in front of the second lady and completely blocked the corpse.

As soon as the person left, Su Yan noticed the corpse at this time.

The man was already unrecognizable, his face seemed to be burned by fire, no wonder those people just now didn't know who this person was, and only the black birthmark on his hand was still there, and the rest of the place was scorched!

But it's also strange why it's the only one that hasn't burned down.

As soon as the people around him dispersed, the air was filled with the smell of burnt meat.

The taste is disgusting!

Although the servants could block the second lady's gaze, they could not stop the smell of burnt and fleshy in the air.

"Gross. The second lady reached out to cover her chest, and quickly covered her lips again, almost not vomiting, and it was much better after a while of retching.

"Second lady, be careful. Cuixiang, the personal maid standing in the second lady, hurriedly took out a fan and fanned it beside the second lady, wanting to fan away the disgusting smell, but she didn't want the smell to gather between the second lady's snorts faster.

The second lady's face changed, and she pushed away the fan in Cuixiang's hand and said, "Stand down." ”

Two simple words made Cuixiang dare not say any more.

Su Yan watched from the sidelines, but felt the arrogance of the two ladies.

The second lady didn't want to stay here, so she turned around and was about to leave, but she heard a person with a small eye, "Second lady, do you want to report the death of this dumb slave to the master?"

"Dumb slave?" The second lady's originally disgusted expression changed the moment she heard this name, and the corners of her lips hooked up a slight smile and said, "Report what? Just throw it out and feed the dog." ”

After the second lady finished speaking, she raised the silk handkerchief in her hand, glanced at the courtyard with disgust, and left.

Although the subordinates whispered after the second lady left, they did not dare to discuss it loudly.

None of the people dared to touch the corpse of the dumb slave, and right now, Su Yan and Yuqing were close to the dumb slave.

Su Yan took a closer look, looking at the miserable state of the dumb slave's corpse, but she didn't feel any demonic energy, I'm afraid it should have been done by humans!

"Come on, Miss Su, there's nothing wrong here, let's go back first. Yuqing looked at the dumb slave lying on the ground.

Yuqing also nodded, and as soon as he turned around, he felt a strong hand tugging on the corner of his skirt.

When I turned around, I saw that it was a dumb slave!

The dumb slave's scorched eyes also opened, and he looked at Su Yan in horror and hideousness.

For a moment, Su Yan only felt that her internal organs were rolling!

"Go where you need to go!" Yuqing scolded, and pointed lightly at the dumb slave, and a faint red light came out of her fingertips and entered the dumb slave's head.

He was quiet in an instant, closed his scorched eyes and let go of the hand that grabbed the corner of Su Yan's skirt, and then lay on the ground, motionless.

"What just happened. Su Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and at this time, the people around came over one after another, and with the courage to lift the dumb slave on the ground, covered it with a simple white cloth and carried it out.

And everything just now, it seems that only Su Yan and Yuqing can see it.

Is it their hallucination?

Su Yan looked at Yuqing, Yuqing smiled and said, "It's okay, it's just an ordinary corpse." "Some of the corpses are aimed at Taoists, and once Taoists get close to the corpse, the corpse will be cheated, but ordinary people who are not Taoists cannot see it.

This kind of corpse can only be an unfinished wish before death.

Seeing that Yuqing had helped herself just now, Su Yan also felt a little more in her heart, and said with a smile, "Thank you girl for helping." ”

"You're welcome. Yuqing continued, "There is one more thing to ask for before. ”

"What's the matter? "Since Yuqing helped herself, she shouldn't be a bad person, and Su Yan doesn't have any doubts about her in her heart, presumably she is a friend rather than an enemy.

Yuqing approached Su Yan's white earlobe and said, "What is the name of the man who followed you that day?" ”

When Su Yan heard this, she glanced up at Yuqing, but found a trace of blush on Yu's white face, but it quickly disappeared, Su Yan said, "Ye Zhan." ”

I don't know what Ji Chenyuan said to the adult Zhang in the afternoon, when they had dinner in the evening, they didn't leave the room, two maids sent some meals, Ji Chenyuan sat on the round table next to him and played with a wolf pen, and Su Yan was using the meal next to him.

"A-Yuan. Su Yan suddenly put the spoon down and said.

The pen paused after a week of rotation on his fingertips.

Ji Chenyuan looked at Su Yan and seemed to be waiting for her to speak.

"What did you talk to Master Zhang today?" she was still a little curious about what they had talked about this afternoon.

Ji Chenyuan put the pen on the pen pillow on the side and said, "Just a pleasantry." ”

A bowl of rice bottomed out quickly, but Su Yan didn't know why, her appetite was always bigger recently, she thought about it and served herself another bowl of soup.

The stewed chicken soup is filled with the smell of medicinal food, which dilutes the fat of the chicken a lot.

I don't know if it's because I've eaten too much recently or what, Su Yan always feels that she seems to have gained some weight.

I touched my cheek, and it seemed that I had a little more flesh than when I entered the General's Mansion.

After drinking the last of the stewed chicken soup in the porcelain bowl, a cup of tea appeared on the table in front of Su Yan.

Su Yan looked at Ji Chenyuan and found that he looked at the moonlight outside and didn't speak, so she was also overjoyed, picked up the tea and drank it, and said, "We can go to find Gu worms tonight!"

Outside, the moon also came out, but the moon was a little thin and not round enough.

The moonlight is in full bloom, and it is suitable for zombies to travel.

Ji Chenyuan got up and said, "Let's go." ”

After finishing speaking, he walked out of the house, and Su Yan followed him.

According to the clues of the Gu worm this morning, Ji Chenyuan walked in the Zhang Mansion.

Zhang's mansion is still relatively large, there are no lanterns hanging in some places, it is pitch black, and it is so cold that there are no people under the maid, but for zombies, this is just right.

They don't like humans, no one, on the contrary, they are at ease, and it is better for them to be at night than day, and zombies also have a name, called hunters in the night.

A few dark clouds drifted by, as if to obscure the bright moon.

The moonlight that was originally sprinkled on the ground was gone, and the ground was pitch black, Su Yan followed Ji Chenyuan's footsteps, but she always felt that there was someone behind her, and kept looking back.

Ji Chenyuan felt the fear in her heart, slowed down and took her hand and said, "Follow me." ”

"Hmm. Su Yan nodded.

After the dark clouds covered the moonlight, the wind suddenly rose, blowing Su Yan's dress like a fairy, and Ji Chenyuan's dark clothes were blown up a little.

The fierce momentum on his body added a little more.

"Coo-goo. A strange cry came to mind in the shadows.

Su Yan was frightened and hurriedly turned around, but found that there were just a few partridges flying up, but the cries were a little terrible.

Ji Chenyuan didn't move forward, he said, "It's here." ”

Is this it?

Su Yan was very curious, because of the reason why she and Ji Chenyuan became yin and yang after marrying her, her eyes were as bright as the day.

In front of them was a small courtyard, which seemed to be carefully tended, with vines growing and intertwining, climbing up the bamboo poles, forming a natural green umbrella.

If it's summer, standing in this courtyard must be very cool!

And the yard under this vine is full of flowers and plants.

The fragrance of flowers permeates the air, and it smells very good.

Ji Chenyuan suddenly walked in front of a flower, his eyes sank, and he saw a dead insect in the soil next to the flower.

This insect is full of colors, it is the Gu worm he raised.

"The Gu worm died here, who would the assassin be?" asked Su Yan.

The flower is bright red and has the ultimate charm, but the most important part of the stamen is black.

"That person shouldn't know that there are Gu worms. "The Gu worm was killed unintentionally, this Gu worm is just an ordinary Gu worm, following the human body, if its owner urges, it can torture its host master, that is, the person who follows, and the master can also follow the message it gives to find it.

It couldn't compare to Ji Chenyuan's previous Sound Gu, naturally, the weakness was also great.

Ji Chenyuan stretched out his hand and slowly stroked the extremely bewitching flower and said, "This is called a poppy, when the army is marching and fighting, the military doctor comes to anesthetize, and ordinary Gu worms can only die when they smell the smell of this poppy." ”

"Could it be that the assassin didn't know that he had Gu worms on his body at all, and he happened to touch poppies again?" Su Yan suddenly remembered.

If that person knew that he had Gu worms on his body, he probably wouldn't have thrown them next to the poppy so casually after killing the Gu worms, and the best explanation was that the person didn't know it, and just approached the poppy flower.

Ji Chenyuan nodded, and then said, "This should be the flower cultivation room of Zhang's Mansion, I heard that a person called a dumb slave was serving. ”

Dumb slave.

Su Yan suddenly remembered what happened during the day before, and hurriedly said, "The dumb slave is dead." ”

"Dead?" Ji Chenyuan asked nonchalantly.

"Hmm. Su Yan nodded, "Besides, it was very strange when the dumb slave died, his whole body was burned by fire, but the strange thing is that there was no fire in Zhang's mansion, and all the places on his body were burned, only the birthmark on his right hand was not burned." ”

"Wow. "Not far away there was a small water tank, on top of which were a few small stones, and for some reason, the small stones suddenly fell into the water tank, causing a ripple.

On the top of the ripples, a thin woman in a black shirt gently lifted the bamboo leaves floating on the water with a wooden water scoop, and then scooped a spoonful of water.

There was a bit of indifference in her eyes, like the indifference of a monk.

Very few people come to the North Garden of Zhang's Mansion, so naturally few people will know that it is the owner of Zhang's Mansion, Mrs. Zhang's family.

A gust of wind blew, and the black veil that covered her face was blown off, and a face full of scars was reflected in the water tank.

Horrific and disgusting scars crisscross each other.

It looked extremely terrifying, but in this regard, the woman just glanced indifferently at the face reflected in the water tank, as if the person was not her, her expression was unwavering, and she reached out to put the black veil that had been blown off again.

With the spoonful full of water in his hand, he walked to the flowers and plants on the side, and carefully watered the flowers and plants.

And just when Beiyuan was calm, an abrupt insult suddenly sounded, "You get out of here, I know you're in there." ”

There was a gust of wind and dust, and the second lady in purple clothes walked in front of the eldest lady with two maids.

This thin woman in black clothes is the eldest lady of this mansion.

Every month, she always comes to see herself a few times, but she is just a dying person, what is there to humiliate?

The eldest lady calmly poured the last drop of water from the ladle on the stamens.

Yingying water is shiny, and it is very good-looking.

Seeing the eldest lady's indifferent appearance, it made her angry!

She couldn't see the arrogant look of this so-called eldest lady, did she still think that she was the little daughter-in-law who had just entered the door at the beginning? Who didn't know that her second lady was in charge of the inner courtyard of the Zhang family today!

The second lady's chest rose and fell slightly, I am afraid that she will not be angry, and when Cui Xiang next to her saw this, she stepped forward and kicked the eldest lady's ankle.

The sudden pain made the eldest lady frown, and the whole person was kicked to the ground.

"Ah Hong, you just let me go, can't you?" The eldest lady's lips moved, and she slowly called out the second lady's previous nickname.

Hearing this name, the second lady's face was even more cloudy, and she almost crushed that silver tooth, "Cuixiang, press her to the ground!"

The eldest lady's face still did not emit a strange color, and she had long been accustomed to such torture.

When Cuixiang held her arm, she moved her body slightly and tried to stand up, but was kicked hard from behind by Cuixiang, so that she couldn't get up at all.

The two maids pressed the eldest lady on the left and the right, and made her kneel in front of the second lady.

Seeing this, the second lady covered her lips with her hand and said with a laugh, "Sister, oh, no, I should call you Miss." ”

The second lady twisted her slender waist to the water tank, took a spoonful of water with another wooden water scoop, and then walked to the eldest lady.

The past jumped one by one, and she finally got rid of the identity of a maid, and she wore a red wedding dress to her young lady, and the future eldest sister served tea.

That used to be her most regretful past!

"Sister, how does that tea taste?" the second lady smiled lightly, but her smile was full of resentment, "I must have not drunk tea for a long time, in this remote Beiyuan?"

In the blink of an eye, the second lady had already walked in front of the eldest lady, she slowly raised her hand, as if she was watering flowers on weekdays, her wrist moved slightly, the water scoop tilted, and the bright cold water slowly flowed down, washing and washing on the eldest lady's head.

"Does my sister like my sister's tea this time?" Looking at the cold water slowly rushing above the eldest lady's head, the second lady's anger calmed down a little.

"Bang!" the wooden ladle was mercilessly thrown to the ground in the distance by the second lady after the water had finished flowing, making a screeching sound.

"Cuixiang, let go. The second lady said coldly.

When the two maids heard this, they let go of their hands.

The eldest lady, who was not shackled, fell directly on the wet ground, her hair and clothes were wet with the cold water, and she looked so embarrassed.

The second lady squatted down and looked at the eldest lady at eye level, she reached out and touched the soaked black veil on the eldest lady's face, a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes, and then the black veil was torn off by her.

The scar, which was as terrifying as martial arts, appeared in front of them, but the second lady seemed to be gone.

It's just that her face can't hide her disgust and a hint of ridicule, "You like this, you will never be able to turn over." ”

Just as the second lady continued to taunt, the eldest lady's lips suddenly moved, and the only thing that could still be seen on her broken face was the pair of watery eyes.

It can be guessed that before her appearance was destroyed, she was once a beauty.

"Ah Hong, there are things that are yours and yours, and they can't run away. "On the contrary, if it is robbed, it will not belong to you if it is not yours.

The eldest lady said indifferently.

But it was this indifference that made the second lady's eyes red, she threw the black veil that was removed from the eldest lady's face to the ground, turned around and said, "Do you know that I hate you the most arrogant and cold, you are no longer my master, few people in the Zhang Mansion know about your existence, do you know, do you know you!"

The second lady's hysteria made people's hearts palpitate, but the eldest lady was half-sitting on the wetland next to her and didn't say anything.

The second lady turned her head, looking at the indifference on the eldest lady's face but smiled, she said slowly, "I hope you won't be surprised after hearing the news." ”

The smile on her lips grew, "Your dumb slave, dead." ”

Your dumb slave, dead, dead, dead!

A different look finally appeared on the eldest lady's face, a little annoyed, but this was exactly what the second lady wanted, she turned around and said, "Sister, enjoy the news of your concubine's death, hahaha." ”

Watching the woman in front of her suffer is her greatest pleasure!

The second lady left with the two maids.

The door was ajar and ajar.

The eldest lady sat on the ground, letting the cold water erode her thin body, she looked at the flowers and plants on the side with some frustration, and said to herself, "Dumb slave, don't you know that I will be sad like this?"

She seemed to have known that the dumb slave was going to die, but when she learned the news, she couldn't help but blame him.

The dumb slave is the only friend in her life.

The astringency in her heart continued to expand, and finally turned into a woman's low sobs, echoing in this empty North Garden, sounding a little inexplicably creepy
