Chapter Ninety-Four: Revenge
"My grandfather always adhered to the way of doing things without revealing his wealth, and there were some heirlooms that he hid in the dark room of the family, and only the eldest sons and grandchildren of the family could know about it.
Over the years, a lot of wealth has been accumulated that is not known to outsiders, and I only learned about it after the weak crown.
So when I found it again, I went to the dark room and found that the thieves really didn't know about the dark room and the treasure, and the things were intact.
So I devised a plan to hide some gold and silver in a cellar somewhere in my house, and wrapped them in layers of silk.
In that satin, I put a kind of poisonous weed prepared for me by the patriarch father to grind into a fine powder in order to defend myself.
The powder can enter the body in one breath and one breath, and then if you don't drink alcohol, you will be safe, as long as you drink alcohol, the poison in the body will be stimulated.
After that, I deliberately spread the news around the shops that were sold, saying that there were actually some gold and silver treasures hidden in the Zong's mansion, and no one had found them. ”
"Aren't you afraid that after others hear about it, they will run in to find treasure and accidentally be injured or even killed by you?" Du Ruo asked him.
Zong Youlin shook his head very frankly: "I didn't think about it that much, I just thought that the Zong family's ghost house was already famous, and the people outside were convinced of the haunted things in it."
Those who can be so unbelievable and dare to come for treasure must be people who don't believe that the Zong family is a murderous house and that it is haunted.
Who would be so sure? It can only be the gang of thieves who ganged up to harm my family in the first place! ”
"Aren't you afraid that they will be thieves and dare not come at all?" Ye Yuanzhou felt that Zong Youlin's plan sounded a little incomplete.
A hint of fierceness flashed in Zong Youlin's dim and cloudy eyes: "I'm not afraid!" If you are really afraid of the unjust ghost asking for your life, then eighty percent still has a little conscience left, and if it is like this, you will not be able to do such an evil deed that loses your conscience!
I thought that it would be best if I could take revenge on those villains who conspired to kill my family back then, and if it was an unrelated bystander who was recruited, then I could only blame him for his lack of greed and self-inflicted blame! ”
"Then your plan should have gone relatively smoothly, right?" Du Ruo asked.
Zong Youlin nodded: "I hid in the dark room, waiting for someone to come, and then there were really a few people coming, I didn't dare to show up, I just hid in the dark room and eavesdropped on their movements."
Those people didn't speak with emphasis from the Tonghe side, but it sounded like they were from my father-in-law's house.
A few days later, I heard the news that the people who bought my sect's shop at a low price and then sold it at a high price suddenly died at home, and I knew that I had succeeded. ”
"What about the drunkard who made a bet and spent the night in your clan's house? He also moved the treasure that you hid? Ye Yuanzhou asked.
Zong Youlin was stunned for a moment, and seemed to be a little unable to remember the person Ye Yuanzhou mentioned, and he realized who Ye Yuanzhou was talking about after thinking about it.
"That man died before those men." He hurriedly explained, and lifted the scattered hair in front of him, so that his face was completely exposed, "When I first came back, I would tie up my hair in the house, and I didn't expect someone to come to the house that day, and I met that person head-on.
When the man saw me, he cried out, 'Oh ghost,' and then his face changed and he collapsed to the ground, out of breath.
I was also frightened and frightened, fearing that someone else would come in and bump into me, so I hurried to hide in the dark room, and the next day his friend came to look for him, and found him dead in the house, and with another shouting, he carried the body away.
It was only after this that I thought of using my family's murderous reputation to take revenge. ”
"Then before we came, you were hiding in this house alone?" Du Ruo didn't feel anything unusual at all when he looked at Zong Youlin's face at this time, but he felt that he had been lurking in this house alone for so long, which was a little incredible.
"People outside said that I had fallen into an evil spirit, and I didn't know what I had collided with, and I came back and killed a family, and then disappeared." Zong Youlin gritted his teeth, "The person who pretended to be me must have known me, and the person who met the poisonous woman was most likely her cousin, as I guessed!"
This thief does not know where to hide, and the gold and silver treasures that I have exchanged for my family's property are rich and free, and I cannot tolerate this, so I can only stay, guard my family's old house, and see if there is a way to find out what can be found.
Unexpectedly, before I could find out anything, I waited for you.
At first, I was afraid that you heard the rumors of the murderous house, and wanted to run to join in the fun, and wanted to scare you away, but I didn't expect it to be two adults! ”
Obviously, Zong Youlin didn't know what the final result of the vicious battle between Ye Yuanzhou and the man in black was at night, but when he was talking at this time, he also quietly looked at Du Ruo and Ye Yuanzhou, and found that Du Ruo looked fine, and Ye Yuanzhou seemed to have a scar on his cheek, but he didn't know when it was left.
He glanced at Ye Yuanzhou a few times, as if he wanted to say something, but because of some concerns, he didn't speak directly.
"How did you find the man in black last night?" Du Ruo saw Zong Youlin's behavior, but it was not good to ask him directly, for fear that if it scared him, he would keep his mouth shut, so he had to ask about something else.
Unexpectedly, she really got to the point, Zong Youlin hurriedly said: "At first, I didn't see the man in black sneaking in, I just smelled a familiar aroma. ”
"Aroma?" When Du Ruo heard these two words, he felt his heart tighten inexplicably, and he had a bad premonition.
"Yes, the aroma is very faint, and if you are not familiar with the smell, you may not notice it all of a sudden.
But I did recognize it, because after I was rescued, the village where I was taken in was located in Nantui, and the locals often deal with strangers outside the border on weekdays.
Those aliens are accustomed to learning and using various herbs since childhood, and they will also use herbs to refine poison, so for fear of accidentally poisoning, they often carry a kind of detoxification and awakening sachet with them, which is that kind of fragrance.
The people in the village who took me in, because they often interacted with strangers, also learned to wear that sachet, and over time I became familiar with the smell.
So as soon as I smelled the smell, I knew that there must be outsiders in my house, thinking that you suddenly ran here to live, and there was something important on me, and I was afraid that the aliens were coming for you, so I hurried to give you a wake-up. ”
