Chapter 30: Mrs. He
"Thank you, village chief!"
I thought the village chief was telling us to be careful of the monsters, so I didn't think much about it, and after saying goodbye to the village chief, I walked to the east of the village.
After a while, Lonnie and I were in front of a large mansion.
This house looks antique, magnificent, there are two big stone lions standing at the door, at a glance it is the old mansion left by the ancestors of the generous family.
In this Wangjiazhuang, which is full of low-rise houses, it seems quite abrupt.
Only now, like other houses, the door is closed, and there is no one in sight.
"Isn't this the house we saw when we first entered the village?"
Lonnie looked at the stone lion at the door and said curiously.
"Well, let's go check it out first."
As I spoke, I stepped up the stone steps and knocked twice on the door.
Bang bang!
Soon, a crack opened on the door, revealing a pair of vigilant eyes.
"Who are you?"
"We are Mr. Ma from out of town, and we are here to receive the bounty of the He family."
Next, I have to solve the evil of Wangjiazhuang, and naturally there is no need to hide my identity.
Hearing that we were Mr. Izuma, the people in the door let down a little guard and opened the door carefully.
The man, dressed in a black cardigan and dressed as a subordinate, looked at Lonnie and me before waving his hand.
"Come with me, two of you."
The man made a gesture of invitation and led Lonnie and me into the compound.
The yard was full of flowers and plants, and several large open houses came into view.
The man led the way, and in a short time led us to a room.
"Wait a minute, you two, I'll report to the eldest lady."
Lonnie and I stood outside the door, watching the man push the door open and enter the room.
After a while, he came out and said to us, "The eldest lady said to invite you two in." ”
I nodded, and with Lonnie, I walked in.
The interior of the room is large, with one-color mahogany furniture, leather seats, and interior decoration, which is full of luxury.
A middle-aged woman in her forties, dressed in jewels, was sitting on a mahogany chair with a teacup in her hand and a pair of piercing eyes sweeping over me and Lonnie.
"You're the Mr. Horse who unveiled the list?"
The woman glanced at me and asked coldly, still sitting firmly in her chair, without the slightest intention of moving.
"It can't be a liar, right?"
I was about to defend myself when the woman was so suspicious of her, but Lonnie got up and walked up to the woman with a smile on her face.
"Madame, have you been having nightmares lately about a snake always walking under your feet, causing you to be restless every day?"
"How do you know?"
The woman was stunned for a moment, and looked at Lonnie in amazement and asked.
Lonnie smiled and said, "Didn't I tell you, we are Mr. Izuma, and it is our specialty to see incense and judge things." ”
"And I'm just a second-in-command, and the one who is really good at it is my husband, Master Cheng."
Lonnie said, gesturing to me standing behind me.
The noble lady looked at me suspiciously, and asked softly, "Dare to ask the master, how do I solve this situation?" ”
Of course, I knew that this was Lonnie's opportunity to show me, so I stood up and glanced at the lady faintly.
"You are overthinking, your yang energy is weak, and the nightmare takes advantage of the opportunity, just put a pair of scissors under the pillow at night when you sleep, and immediately scare away the nightmare."
The lady was slightly stunned, "It's that simple?" ”
I smiled faintly, "The real means of exorcism have always been concise and clear, if you don't believe it, you will know if you try it tonight." ”
Seeing me swear so much, the noble lady finally stopped doubting that the disdain she had on her face when she looked at us before had long since disappeared.
"I didn't know Taishan just now, please sit down!"
The host and guest sat down, and soon someone stepped forward and poured a cup of hot tea for Lonnie and me
"Dare to ask Master Cheng, how do you plan to solve the monsters in our village?"
After a few pleasantries, the eldest lady began to get to the point.
"We've investigated the village before, and as far as I can tell, those monsters are just a bunch of manipulative zombies."
I said lightly: "Just find out the person who is hiding behind the scenes, so that this matter can be completely resolved." ”
The eldest lady nodded, and then asked, "Then how do we find the person behind the scenes?" ”
I thought for a few seconds, and then said, "In this way, you first find a way to install a monitor outside the door, and I will check it myself tonight, and then you can arrange some more people, and once those zombies come knocking on the door again, just look at my eyes and act." ”
The eldest lady is obedient to me now, and quickly nodded and said, "Okay, just do what Master Cheng says!" ”
Immediately, she waved her hand and summoned two subordinates, "Ah Liang, wait for you to take a few people to the county seat, buy the best monitoring device, and be sure to install it before it gets dark today." ”
"Yes, ma'am!"
Ah Liang answered, turned and left.
"Apu, you go find the most spacious room and arrange a place for Master Cheng and them."
The eldest lady instructed another subordinate.
"Yes!"
Apu replied, then turned around and waved to Lonnie and me, "Please come with me, both of you." ”
Lonnie and I said goodbye to the eldest lady and followed Apu out of the house and into the backyard.
This He family seems to be a big family, how can a wife preside over family affairs, where have all the men in this family gone?
On the way, I couldn't contain my curiosity, so I asked Apu.
"Master Cheng, do you know, the eldest master and the second master passed away a few years ago, and now it is the eldest wife who is in charge of the housework."
Listening to Apu's narration, I realized that this He family was a famous rich family in ten miles and eight towns in the early years, and Mrs. He and the Zhang couple had a total of two sons.
The eldest son, He Guosheng, and his wife Sun Xiuxiu, gave birth to a grandson named He Jiafu.
The second son He Zhiqiang, his wife Lian Qingqing, and the He family also gave birth to a grandson, He Jialu.
Speaking of which, this He family can also be regarded as a prosperous person, but the good times did not last long, a few years ago, Mrs. He died of illness, and later He Guosheng and He Zhiqiang brothers, and they were in a car accident while traveling abroad, and both died, leaving only their own wives and children.
Mrs. He is very old and seriously ill, so the burden of presiding over the affairs of the He family naturally falls on the head of the eldest lady Sun Xiuxiu.
As Apu spoke, Lonnie and I were walking down a long corridor when suddenly, I faintly heard what seemed to be a heavy breathing sound coming from the left, and a strange smell penetrating my nose.
I turned my head and saw a side room on my left.
The strange smell and wheezing sound came from inside!
