Diqiu asked Chapter 206 Pretending to be a ghost
Compared with the inconvenience of his right foot, it seems that the prince's internal injury is more serious, so Lu Anran can go out to move, but Zi Sangjin can only be bedridden.
When Lu Anran and Yun were up, Zi Sangjin happened to be drinking the medicine, and drank a bowl of black medicine in one go without changing his face, and wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, so as to avoid the two of them from saluting.
"Since the legs and feet are inconvenient, the false courtesy is waived."
Yun Qi happily sat down, helped Lu Anran put the crutches aside, and pretended to be concerned, "Your Highness is okay, right?" ”
Zi Sangjin handed the medicine bowl to Hua Marriage, waved his hand and asked the people in the house to wait for them to retreat, before turning his head to look at the two of them, "I still need to recuperate for a while." ”
Lu Anran noticed that Zi Sangjin's brows were furrowed before drinking the medicine, and remembered that he had said that the juvenile medicine was adulterated, and Zi Sangjin's eyes had a little more meaning.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, Miss Meng asked me to bring a message to thank you for saving your life."
Yesterday, Lu Anran had asked someone to see Meng Shizhao, she let the prince's subordinates be saved after Lu Anran left, and when she learned that Meng Shizhao was fine, Lu Anran finally put her mind at ease.
Zi Sangjin thought about it carefully before she remembered this, and put Meng Shizhao on the face of a woman with bright red lips and a lonely and proud face in her mind, "You have a good relationship with Miss Meng?" ”
Lu Anran pondered: "There are several sides. ”
A touch of regret slipped in Zi Sangjin's eyes, and sure enough, when the two of them left the barren forest and deep valley and returned to their own status, they could no longer speak as they wanted.
He couldn't help but be a little amused when he looked at Lu Anran's cautious tone, he really asked casually just now, not with any tentative thoughts, but once his name was put in front of the title of prince, any words and actions seemed to imply another deep meaning.
However, Zi Sangjin's feelings flashed, after all, he was not an ordinary person with a warm heart and emotional feelings, and then raised his eyes, his eyes were ordinary, but he still had an unparalleled and noble aura of peace, "Let you come today, it is because this palace thought of one thing and forgot to say." ”
Yun Qi's eyes rolled, originally he thought that Zi Sangjin's summons at this time was related to the matter of the county lord of Ding'an, maybe he would ask first, after all, no matter what the relationship between the two usually is, the two are real brother and sister blood relatives, even if they can't say it on the surface, they have to pretend.
But now, judging from Zi Sangjin's attitude, it doesn't seem to be?
Yun Qi smacked his feet and asked, "What Your Highness wants to say, could it be related to the murder that happened in Emperor Qiu?" ”
Redbeard has been ambushed, but apart from this, it is nothing more than the Yaksha killing that makes everyone have a headache and a clue.
"Hmm." Zi Sangjin affirmed, "When I checked the Zhou family before, the people in this palace found that there were a few people who had worked for the Zhou family for a short time, and then disappeared inexplicably, and they were supposed to investigate in depth, because the matter of the Diqiu Dojo was put on hold, and when I wanted to investigate again, there was another Yaksha murder case." ”
Later, the Zhou family had accidents one after another, Yunqi took over the Yaksha murder case, and Zi Sangjin was even more busy fighting wits and courage with Redbeard, so this matter was ignored for the time being.
"The first person to go missing was named Zhu Afu, who was an ordinary farmer who worked part-time jobs in various places during his spare time." Zi Sangjin said, coughed, couldn't stop for a while, waved her hand at Hua Yu, and motioned for her to continue.
Hua Marrying nodded, smiled at Yunqi and Lu Anran, and walked out and said: "Zhu Afu has no father or mother, he is alone, and no one paid attention to his disappearance at first, until the other two people in the village also disappeared. ”
Yunqi guessed: "Could it be that the other two also worked as helpers in the Zhou family?" ”
"Yes, not only that, but they all behaved anomalously before they disappeared."
"What is an anomaly?"
Hua Dang gave an example, "A poor village family spent a hundred taels of silver at a party overnight. ”
Yun raised his eyebrows, "Are the Zhou family's helpers very profitable?" ”
Hua Jury gestured, "Three hundred wen a day." ”
"It's a little bit more than outside, but it's far from the cost of the party."
Lu Anran asked, "The others are too?" ”
Hua Marry shook her head: "The other two are brothers, one of them bought a set of jewelry, and the other set up a shop." ”
Yun Qi smiled meaninglessly, "If they usually have the ability to make money, won't they be able to do anything in their lifetime?" ”
"Yes, I asked people to check, that set of jewelry is worth nearly 1,000 taels, and the transaction price of the shop is 3,200 taels."
"You mean, after these three people went to the Zhou family to work as helpers, they all made a fortune overnight?" Yun Qi clasped the jade bone fan and knocked on his palm, and sighed: "I have to suspect that the Zhou family is an invisible good wealth boy." ”
The Zhou family is naturally not a charity home, so it is full of strangeness.
Yunqi: "Does the prince have made any other discoveries?" ”
Zi Sangjin eased up and leaned back on the pillow, "This palace noticed this matter, and originally suspected that the Zhou family was secretly still trading in human trafficking, but after checking for a while, there were no clues. ”
Yun Qi touched his chin: "If you get rich overnight, it is definitely not a serious business path, could it be that these three people caught the Zhou family and then let the Zhou family die?" ”
"This palace only knows these, and the others still need Yun Shizi to work hard, and this palace has a hunch that this matter is related to the Zhou family."
—
After coming out, Yun Qi spread his hands to Lu Anran and said, "Have you seen it, the royal people are the most shrewd, and they have found a difficult thing for this son in just a few words." ”
"The son of the world can work harder." When I heard it, I couldn't talk about it.
It was inconvenient for Lu Anran to go down the steps, Yun Qi pulled her shoulders and helped her down, "My legs are lame and I don't stop, I have to come out with what to do." ”
Lu Anran got into the carriage, carried his right leg flat, and corrected first: "Broken bones, not lame." Then he said, "I'm a little anxious." ”
Yun Qi snorted lightly: "I fell off the cliff, and my heart has changed?" ”
"I always feel that if I can't find out the truth as soon as possible, I'm afraid the truth will be annihilated."
Yunqi understood Lu Anran's concerns, Gu Laifan was involved in ghosts and killings, and in the end, it was over, otherwise what could he do, where would he go to catch a ghost and come out.
"It's useless to be in a hurry, the case still has to be investigated slowly." Yun Qi pointed to the low table a little, his eyebrows narrowed, and his eyes were a little sharp, "Let's start with this Zhu Afu." ”
—
In the ancestral hall of Zhoufu, Master Ma was still playing chess with Zhou Gong, and suddenly there was a dull pain in his forehead, and he woke up immediately.
When he got out of bed, his eyes opened, and he suddenly met a pale and blue face, his tongue was bright red, and his eyes were faintly green.
"Ahh ”
"Hahahaha-" Lu Taotao laughed so hard that his stomach hurt, he threw himself on the table and rolled around, rubbed his face, took off a piece of painting skin, and looked left and right, "Hehe, the painting is quite good." ”
Master Ma had nothing to love, spread it on the ground and said: "Little girl Lu, people are scared to death." ”
"Aren't you a high-ranking monk, specializing in ghost hunting?"
Master Ma emphasized: "I am a Taoist priest, not a monk. ”
"Hey, almost." Lu Taotao waved his hand impatiently, "Ma Dan, if you don't recite your scriptures, hide in the room and sleep, I'm going to tell Old Man Zhou that you pretend to cheat him out of money." ”
Master Ma got up, "Leave people on the line, and it will be good to share the spoils in the future, phew, it's easy to discuss." ”
Lu Taotao's big eyes rolled around, "Eighty-two points, I want that eight." ”
"Little Deer Girl......"
"That's okay, I'll talk to Old Man Zhou now."
"Deal."
Lu Taotao jumped on the table and crossed his legs, only then did he show a satisfied look, "What are you sleeping, why don't you go to sit in meditation and chant the scriptures, and work hard later, and strive to make Old Man Zhou bleed again, you know?" ”
Master Ma just regretted it, he just took a fancy to Yunqi and Lu Anran as if they were extraordinary, and looked at whether they could make some benefits by following him, who would want to meet this difficult and difficult ancestor.
After Master Ma went out, Lu Taotao wandered around the room boredly, and decided to put the dough on and then scare Xiao Xunqing.
The ancestral hall of the Zhou family is built high, there are not many courtyards, except for the middle main courtyard, two rows of wings for resting are built on both sides.
Lu Taotao never walks through the main entrance, always flies the eaves and walks the wall, flies over the big trees in the courtyard, and rushes in through a window, which happens to be the lobby.
Lu Taotao is no stranger here, more than 100 heads of the Zhou family were stacked in the open space outside not long ago, and now the corpses are cleaned up, but it seems that there is still a smell of blood that cannot be removed.
If you change someone, you don't dare to run in at will, so the Zhou family ancestral hall doesn't need to be closed, this is a murderous mansion that thieves don't dare to break into casually.
In a way, Master Ma and Xunqing are also bold people.
It's just that he has a pure mind and wants to eliminate the evil karma for the undead, as for Master Ma, the people who didn't dare to break into the ghost village at the beginning, but they ran to the murderous house to recite the scriptures without hesitation, to put it bluntly, the temptation of money is too great, and the courage is fat.
Lu Taotao is different from the two of them, she is not afraid of heaven and earth, but when the Yaksha comes, she still wants to catch it as a pet.
The lobby was empty, Xun Qing didn't know where to go, Lu Taotao walked around with his hands behind his back, and he didn't necessarily show respect for the tablet placed on it, but felt that the fragrance was choking, and he waved his hand and wiped it out with his fingers.
When she heard the movement outside the door, she listened to the brisk footsteps, thought it was clear, and immediately flew to the upper beam to hide, intending to scare and scare the child.
An old man came in.
Lu Taotao lay on the beam, looked down for a long time, hesitated to scare the old man, thinking that the old man at the door of the ancestral hall cried and fainted several times that day, what if he was scared to death?
Steward Zhou naturally didn't know that Lu Taotao was at war with heaven and man in his heart, and he saw that there was still half of the incense left, but it was all extinguished for no reason, and his footsteps were stagnant halfway through.
"You're here?" Steward Zhou suddenly spoke.
Lu Taotao blinked, how did the old man know that she was hiding here, could he also do kung fu?
Come to think of it again, no, he's talking about you.
She looked left and right, and made sure that she was the only one left in the ancestral hall except for the old man, where did this 'we' come from?
Steward Zhou was already close to the incense case, his hand was on the half-cut incense in the middle, and when Lu Taotao thought he was going to rekindle it, he moved his two fingers and cut it off directly.
Lu Taotao opened his mouth in surprise, but saw Steward Zhou turn sideways, and his expression fell into Lu Taotao's eyes, his face was cold and his eyes were gloomy.
He said viciously: "Even if you come back, it's too late." ”
