Chapter 54: Two More Skeletons
The time has passed, and a bright moon hangs high in the night sky. But there was still no movement on Shi Baoyu's side.
Ji Xia yawned long and slowly, and her eyelids were already fighting.
Really! In modern times, at this point, the nightlife of urban beauty has just begun. I didn't expect to come to ancient times without mobile phones and entertainment activities, and I was sleepy so early.
"Why don't you go back to sleep first, here, with the three of us guarding, it's enough." The cold moonlight reflected the cold and gentle eyes like water.
Ji Xia shook his head and cheered up.
"Brother Gao, Master, you see, Shi Baoyu's lights in his house have been extinguished, looking at it this way, he should be going to sleep, right? Then he's probably not going to do anything tonight, right? Xue Dabao reminded in a low voice.
Kanazesen agreed, echoing: "I think so too. It seems that it has been in vain again. ”
"Wait a little longer." Gao Han said firmly. Judging from Shi Baoyu's reaction during the day, he should have taken action immediately.
"Is it not deep enough at night?" Ji Xia raised his head and looked around, and said faintly. She gradually lost her confidence in her heart.
"That's it, Brother Jin, you and Ji Xia go back to rest first, if Shi Baoyu doesn't act tonight, then tomorrow night, I will replace you to squat." Gao Han suggested.
He was a little worried, "In case he doesn't act all the time, we will stay up all night every day, and I'm afraid that my body won't be able to bear it." ”
After speaking, he looked at Ji Xia with concern.
found that Ji Xia was only wearing a thin short shirt, shrunk up, with her hands clasped around her chest, a little distressed: it was so cold at night, and she didn't know how to put on more clothes. hurriedly draped his coat on Ji Xia's body, "You go back to rest with Brother Jin first." ”
Ji Xia shook his head stubbornly and refused on the spot, "Let Dabao go and rest." I'm going to have to crouch down on him today! Ji Xia decided in his heart that there would be a harvest today.
As he was talking, there seemed to be movement on Shi Baoyu's side.
From a distance, it seemed that the door of his house had opened a crevice, and then a head poked out of it, looking vigilantly.
It's him! Shi Baoyu.
Xue Dabao was anxious to get up, but Gao Han pressed his shoulder, shook his head, and signaled him not to act rashly.
I saw Shi Baoyu holding a candle in one hand and a shovel in the other, and tiptoed out of the door with a cat. His movements were extremely light, but his body was fast, like a ghost.
It was late at night.
The four of them cautiously followed behind Shi Baoyu.
After a while, they came to the back mountain.
The wild cat, which came from nowhere, seemed to be frightened by something, and began to call, which made people feel furious, and its terrible cry pierced the boundless night, adding a treacherous atmosphere.
Rao has always asked himself the bold Ji Xia, who has ever seen such a scene.
Ji Xia was carrying a heart, fine beads of sweat had appeared in her palms, she tugged at the corners of her clothes tightly, gritted her teeth, and didn't dare to make a sound.
Everyone watched quietly in front of them by the moonlight.
Shi Baoyu stood in front of a mound of graves, hunched over, and turned over the mound of earth with a shovel.
When Shi Baoyu's movements slowed down and guessed that the grave had been dug up, the four of them rushed up and surrounded him.
"Shi Baoyu, in the middle of the night, did you come to the back mountain for a walk?" Xue Dabao flipped his lips and teased Shi Baoyu.
When Shi Baoyu saw these four people who appeared out of nowhere, he was so frightened that he didn't know what to say.
"Ahem, you see he has a shovel in his hand, how can it be a walk? I guess it's here to plant flowers, right? Jin Zesen and Xue Dabao sang and harmonized, causing Shi Baoyu's face to suddenly change from blue to white.
Which of these four people are singing? Did they come with themselves? Do they already know?
Shi Baoyu was up and down in his heart, and hesitated to speak: "Yes, yes, I'll plant flowers?" ”
What does it mean to open your eyes and tell nonsense, but now you can be regarded as having seen it.
"Oh? That's really good. Ji Xia snorted coldly and mocked.
"Why, who said that you can't plant flowers in the middle of the night!" Shi Baoyu suddenly became angry, straightened his waist, and said loudly.
Ji Xia turned his head away, with a posture of "Do you think I want to take care of you".
"What about the flowers?" Gao Han only said a word, and Shi Baoyu was speechless.
"This ......" Shi Baoyu was terrified, hesitating and not knowing how to explain it.
Jin Zesen took the lead in stepping in front of Shi Baoyu, he didn't want to talk nonsense with Shi Baoyu anymore, and said bluntly: "Tell me, what's going on in this tomb?" ”
"I didn't ...... Nothing! ”
Angry, Jin Zesen grabbed his collar, gritted his teeth and said, "Are you sure? ”
Shi Baoyu himself has a big waist and a round waist, plus he is a butcher, although he is fat, he can be regarded as powerful. At this time, he was struggling.
"Shi Baoyu, I advise you to be smarter, you must know that since we can follow you here in the middle of the night, we are naturally very sure." Gao Han said coldly.
Shi Baoyu moved his body, obviously trying to cover up something, Xue Dabao took the first step, pulled him away, and leaned into the tomb, "Look, there are three corpses buried here!" ”
The sky was slightly bright, and Shi Baoyu was already kneeling in front of Lord Lin in the capital.
Wang Genhua was also invited to the capital by Xue Dabao overnight. Although along the way, Xue Dabao had roughly explained the matter, but looking at her expression, she was still ignorant.
