When Minghui arrived, Cui Niangzi was making sausages in the yard of the fat aunt, and two rows of sausages had been hung on the bamboo poles used to dry clothes and sausages in the yard.

"Aunt Cui, do you want to sell it if you do so much?"

Minghui couldn't help swallowing her saliva, when she was in the mountains before, every winter, Cui Niangzi would make sausages, but she didn't do much every year, half of them were brought by Wang Haiquan to her two sons, and the other half were Minghui's.

Because of the climate, the sausage in the north is different from the south, and the method is simple, but the taste is also excellent.

Minghui hasn't eaten Cui Niangzi's sausage for more than 20 years, she sniffs, and now she wants to eat it, what should I do?

Cui Niangzi saw that she had already smiled and narrowed her eyes: "Don't sell, these are all made for you to eat, it was inconvenient to live in the Taoist temple before, but now with this courtyard, you can do as much as you want, and it won't affect the real person, haha, it's good." ”

Seeing Minghui's little greedy cat, Cui Niangzi said with a smile: "After it is dried, I will ask Wang An to send it to you, I heard from a real person that your yard is not next to the place where the Taoist chiefs live, so good, it is convenient to eat anything." I also pickled spiced salted eggs, pickled after the delivery of the past, but unfortunately Baoding City can not buy duck eggs, and so on, the spring flowers, let Wang An go to Dianzi to buy, Aunt Cui pickled duck eggs for you to eat. ”

"Okay, then I'll wait." Minghui said with a grin.

A small head poked out from behind the cotton curtain, and his hair was thin, but he stubbornly combed two small tugging, which was interesting and cute.

Minghui walked over, the little girl didn't dodge as usual, stared at Minghui's face with a pair of big black and white eyes, Minghui smiled and asked, "Do you remember my sister?" ”

The little girl still didn't speak, but stretched out her white little finger and pointed to the corner of her mouth on the left side of the finger.

Minghui's gaze condensed on the little girl's hand, and then she burst into a big smile: "You, see it?" ”

The place where the little girl fingers is the place where the mole at the corner of her mouth is when she is disguised into a flower.

The little girl didn't speak, her eyes moved from Minghui's face, and she looked at the person who was helping Cui Niangzi in the yard to work, she looked at it not too late, looked at Minghui again, and then lowered her eyelids.

Minghui smiled and touched the little girl's head, the little girl had already seen her true face, but she was too frightened at that time and didn't react, although she still refused to speak, but life is stable, and children are by nature, so they will express their emotions.

This little thing not only recognized her as Hua Qianchang, but also recognized her as not too late last time.

It is worthy of the blood of ten thousand families.

Wan Cangnan's mother, Xue Bingxian, is the top disguise master in the rivers and lakes.

Xue Bingxian knew the past of the Liu family, Wan Cangnan and Liu Sanniang's family affairs, Xue Bingxian resolutely disagreed, Wan Cangnan was not Liu Sanniang did not marry, for this reason the relationship between the mother and son was very tense, many years later, Wan Cangnan and Liu Sanniang had a lover and eventually became a family, Xue Bingxian returned to the mountains and forests in anger.

Minghui's disguise technique was taught by Wan Cangnan, after Xue Bingxian left, Wan Cangnan never used the disguise technique again, he taught Minghui everything he knew.

And this little girl is obviously talented, Minghui smiled at her, and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "Sister will definitely help you find Daddy, Auntie and brother." ”

There is another sentence that she didn't say, that is, if she can't find them, then she will teach all the things she learned from Wan Cangnan and Liu Sanniang in her previous life to the little girl in front of her.

Greeted Cui Niangzi, Minghui asked Cui Niangzi to help not late, she went to Wang Zhenren's yard next door, Cui Niangzi looked at her back, smiled and bent her eyes, the girl came back, and even the air in this wax moon became warm.

Minghui entered the yard, Wang An was chopping firewood in the yard, usually these rough jobs were done in the yard next door, today Cui Niangzi made sausages, worried that the sawdust splashed everywhere was not clean, so he came here to chop firewood, this sizzling sound of chopping firewood, but made this clean yard more fireworks.

Wang Zhenren was meditating, Minghui didn't bother, and returned to the courtyard to chat with Wang An.

"Wang An, have you found anything over there in Feng'er Lane?" Minghui asked.

Wang An put down the axe in his hand, thought about it, and said: "Aunt Liu has not been out of the stall, at the beginning there were many people looking for it, saying that the ten-day period has arrived, but the door of her house is closed, no matter how she knocks on the door, there is no response, worried that something will happen, someone invited Li Zheng to come over, Li Zheng said to let people go over the wall to see, but it is interesting, the person who climbed over the wall just stood on the wall, and Aunt Liu's little apprentice came out of the hall, muttering, the boss was not happy.

After the door was opened, the little apprentice said that her master was still in retreat and could not be disturbed, and that if anyone jumped over the wall again, she would go to report to the official.

Li Zheng was quite faceless, brushed his sleeves away, but those guests still refused to leave, especially a wife, who took out the boss and stuffed a silver ingot to the little apprentice, asking her to be accommodating, and said that she only wanted to ask Aunt Liu a word, just a sentence......

Minghui frowned slightly, and she remembered someone: "Mrs? Is it a very delicate and elegant wife, with a mother-in-law by her side, and the two have a southern accent? ”

"Yes, it is the wife with a southern accent, the little apprentice refused to accept the cash, the wife must give, and then a housekeeper-like person came to persuade the wife, they lowered their voices to speak, I was a little far away, I couldn't hear what they were saying, and then the lady followed the housekeeper, walked to the mouth of the alley, and turned to look at Aunt Liu's house, reluctantly.

I guess this lady must have encountered something big, otherwise she wouldn't be in such a hurry to ask Aunt Liu for divination. ”

After Wang An finished speaking in one breath, Minghui asked, "Later, did that lady appear again?" ”

Wang An shook his head: "No, not only did this lady not appear, but from that day on, no one came to find Aunt Liu, of course, the little apprentice said that he was going to report to the official, who would be bored by himself."

I will go to Feng'er Lane every day to have a look, at the beginning, the little apprentice will come out every day to buy food, sometimes buy donkey meat fire, sometimes buy chicken soup wontons, but since five days ago, the little apprentice has never come out, today I haven't go, when I finish chopping these firewood, I will go to ask the wonton stall and donkey meat stall, if the little apprentice goes out, he will definitely go to them. ”

Minghui nodded and said, "You wait for me, I'll go with you." ”

Wang An was stunned, Minghui had already walked into the hall, and after about a stick of incense, a strange girl walked out of the house.

The girl's appearance is ordinary, but the black mole at the corner of her mouth is particularly obvious.

"Who are you? Why are you ......" Wang An suddenly became alert, and his hand holding the axe tightened.

"I told you to wait for me, now we can go." Minghui said with a smile.

Wang An was stunned, looking at Minghui stupidly: "You, you, you ......"

Minghui strode towards the door: "It's me, let's go." ”

......

Some days I haven't been to Feng'er Lane, the leaves of the two big trees at the mouth of the alley have all fallen off, and the bare branches are shaking in the cold wind, which is extremely depressed.

When Minghui used to come to this alley, there would be people waiting at the mouth of the alley to ask for divination, but now, as Wang An said, there is not even a shadow of a person.

Since there was no one around, Minghui didn't want to waste time, so she said to Wang An: "You wait here, I'll go in and have a look." ”

Wang An was still wondering what Minghui said "go in and see", Minghui had already jumped onto the wall, and then jumped into the courtyard.

Wang An looked at the empty wall in surprise, rubbed his eyes, he was not familiar with the eldest lady, he used to just hear from the people in the audience that the eldest lady had a lively temperament, but he didn't expect to climb the wall, and she was so agile.

The courtyard is still the same as when Minghui left last time, and the deep pit has not yet been filled, but it can be seen that the formation has been withdrawn, probably to facilitate the little apprentice Adu to go out to buy food.

Minghui walked towards the hall, she knew that at this time, Aunt Liu was waiting for her news.

The door of the hall was hidden, Minghui just walked to the door, she smelled a bloody smell, she frowned, could it be that she was late, someone took a step ahead of her and slaughtered Aunt Liu?

Minghui stepped back, walked under the window, poked a hole in the window paper and looked inside.

She deliberately made some noise, only to see Aunt Liu sitting on the kang with her back to the window, hearing the sound, she turned around violently, and her eyes were heavily tied with black cloth.

Minghui smiled: "I'll still be dead to you, ha, just live." ”

Through the window, Aunt Liu smiled coldly; "Aren't you alive too?"

"yes, I'm sorry to disappoint you, I'm still alive, by the way, the black cat is alive too, it's alive and well." Minghui smiled.

"Hmph, this useless beast." Aunt Liu snorted coldly.

Minghui had already left the window and walked into the second room from the hall, and as soon as she entered the door, she knew where the bloody breath came from.

And there was a man on the earth in the second room, a man covered with blood.

Adu, the little apprentice who has been missing for five days!

The blood had dried up, there were corpse spots on his face, and I don't know how long he had been dead, but it was winter, and there was no fire in the house, so I couldn't smell it from the outside.

"What did you do?" Minghui asked.

"Eat what is inside and out, just like that animal, all deserve to die." Aunt Liu gritted her teeth.

Minghui looked at her legs, and Aunt Liu's legs were curled up in a strange position, obviously as Minghui expected, they were already useless.

Aunt Liu's eyes were covered with black cloth, and Minghui knew that Aunt Liu still had one eye at this time that could see things.

"Aren't you God? Why can't I live or die? Minghui asked.

She understands the mind of people like Aunt Liu too well, for Aunt Liu, saying that she can't figure it out means that she is not worthy of being Aunt Liu, which makes her more uncomfortable than abolishing her two legs.

So she defiantly raised her veil and shook it in front of Aunt Liu's eyes, as if to test whether Aunt Liu could see things.

"Nonsense, who said I can't figure it out, how can I not figure it out, I ......"

Aunt Liu suddenly opened her mouth in surprise, she couldn't make any sound in her throat, she understood, it was a handkerchief with a thousand changes, and there was a dumb medicine in the handkerchief, which was the same as the medicine in Adu's last time.

Thinking of Ah Du, Aunt Liu breathed a sigh of relief, the effect of the dumb medicine could only last one day, and the next day, Ah Du was able to speak.

But what's going on with this feeling of dizziness?

Aunt Liu only felt dizzy and drowsy.

She wanted to speak, but she couldn't speak, she wanted to use her only remaining eye to peep through the black cloth to see the flowers, but if her eyelids were heavy, the next moment, she fell.

Minghui sighed, dragged Aunt Liu off the kang, and threw her into the secret room under the kang along with the dead Adu.

At the beginning, Aunt Liu used to imprison her niece there, and now let her taste the taste of captivity before she dies.

However, Aunt Liu is lucky, she has her apprentice as a companion, if her apprentice is not killed by her, she may be able to save her from the secret room, but now, she can only guard the cold corpse, waiting for death in the dark.

Let Aunt Liu die here, it can be regarded as a well-deserved death.

Before Minghui left, she used the green bricks in the courtyard to completely seal the entrance to the secret room, and cleaned up the blood stains left by Aduke on the ground, so as not to frighten the next resident.

She rummaged carefully in the house, and finally found a silver lock wrapped in red cloth in Aunt Liu's pillow, a longevity lock.

The front of the longevity lock is engraved with flowers and wealth, which is used by little girls at first glance, and a small "such as" is engraved on the back.

Minghui narrowed her eyes, there was a girl with the word "Ru" in her name.

She locked the longevity in her hand and checked it, hollow, she shook it, there seemed to be something inside.

Minghui slashed hard along the gap in the longevity lock, and the longevity lock cracked, revealing a yellowed note inside.

There are only eight words on the note, which should be a person's birthday.

Minghui put the note back again, stuffed the longevity lock into her arms, and then walked out.

When Minghui jumped off the wall, Wang An was so excited that he almost cried: "Miss, you can figure it out." I'm scared to death. ”

Minghui smiled at him: "It's okay, you will get used to it next time." ”

Wang An: Next time?

However, Minghui still has two doubts in her heart, one is that she doesn't know where Aunt Liu's daughter is, and the other is that Aunt Liu said that Ah Du eats inside and out, what is going on? Could it be Aunt Liu's enemy, in addition to Hua Qianchang, there are other people?

But Minghui no longer has the patience to spend it with Aunt Liu, and these can be checked later, but Aunt Liu can't stay.

Minghui turned around and looked in the northwest direction, the enemy of the godfather and godmother finally died in her hands.
