Chapter 40: The Male Nine-Tails
"Don't quarrel anymore, if you keep arguing, I'm afraid I'm going to quarrel with my father and mother, and when the time comes, even I will be able to protect you!"
The second master of the Shen family blasted out all his subordinates, hugged the fourth grandmother in his arms, covered her mouth tightly, her forehead was oozing with a layer of fine and dense beads of sweat, and her eyes were full of anxiety.
However, the fourth grandmother didn't listen to it at all, and continued to struggle frantically, and soon tossed her hair that was already unfavorable, and a pair of slender hands scratched her husband's face mercilessly.
"Let go of me, let go of me, I'm looking for my Luo'er, you murderers, you killed my Luo'er, my Luo'er is back, she came to seek revenge on you!"
One by one, the granulation wounds appeared on the face and arms of the second master of the Shen family, and the blood gushed out and soaked the placket of his clothes, dripping down and staining the bedding.
At this time, others couldn't see the situation in the eyes of the fourth grandmother-
Shen Luo's hair was scattered, and her long black hair, which was as dry as grass, covered most of her face, and the cheeks and eyes that were exposed were like a blood-stained black hole embedded in the pale paper; a thick line of blood flowed down from the corner of her half-cracked mouth, and there was a strand of black in the thick red; the chest of a red wedding dress that was supposed to symbolize happiness was open, and the beautiful and delicate body inside seemed to have been cut open by a sharp blade, and there was nothing inside.
Where is this still a young girl who is marrying a woman, this is obviously a human skin floating in the air.
With a loud bang, the old lady of the Shen family slammed the door open, and several people dressed in dark purple robes and big black hats rushed in, and then closed the open door tightly.
"What's the point of being noisy?"
Sitting on the chair on the side, the old lady of the Shen family stomped the cane in her hand on the ground with a "clang" sound, her face was as dark as water, without a trace of pity.
Immediately let go of the fourth grandmother in his arms, and the second master of the Shen family knelt down on his mother with a "plop", kowtowing like pounding garlic.
"Mother, it'll be fine in a while, she, she's just, just ......"
Before he finished his words, the fourth grandmother rushed forward with a scream, ignoring the pull of those family members, rushed over and grabbed the sleeve of the old lady of the Shen family at once, and the expression on her face was extremely hideous.
"You give me back my Luo'er, you give me back Luo'er!"
The old lady of the Shen family, who didn't even frown, still looked majestic when Mount Tai collapsed on the top and his face did not change, and he gave a gesture to those who couldn't even see their faces.
When she landed, those family members didn't even care about the second master of the Shen family, and dragged the fourth grandmother and strangled a white handkerchief in her mouth.
"Mother!"
The second master of the Shen family also panicked when he saw this situation, and hurriedly knelt forward and climbed a few steps, but he only dared to call a "mother" and did not dare to say more.
"If you follow, you will follow, if you can't bear it, then you can rest and go!"
The old lady of the Shen family had been helped up by the family and walked to the door, the expression on her face was cruel, and there was no kindness at all.
bowed his head and was silent for a moment, and just as the group was about to leave the room, the second master of the Shen family's complexion also sank, and he stopped his trembling hands, took a cloak casually, and left the room with him.
Early in the morning of the second day——
"Ah!!h
An earth-shattering scream shattered the silence of the early morning, and the maid who went to feed the fish by the pond every day knocked over the porcelain jar full of fish food in her hand, and stumbled all the way through the house, screaming loudly and rampage through the house, running around like a ghost.
"Dead man, dead man, the fourth grandmother is drowning in the pond!"
Shen Hu, who got up early in the morning and was putting paper kites behind the rockery, was so frightened that he broke the fuse in his hand, and a beautiful emerald green lively dragonfly fell and fell to the rockery.
"Brother Tan!"
hurriedly dropped the crutches in his hand and hid in Shen Tan's arms, his whole body trembling.
Tightly protecting her in his arms, stepping on the smooth gravel path step by step, Shen Tan slowly approached the edge of the pond.
"Ah, Siniang!"
The sharp-eyed Shen Hu saw at a glance the duckweed floating in the pond, the four grandmothers who were sinking and floating, with a blue face and a dead eye.
It turned out that the fourth grandmother was secretly dealt with by the old lady of the Shen family last night, and then she was thrown into the pond like this, pretending that she had lost her heart and went crazy, and fell into the pond and drowned.
"Hu'er, Hu'er!"
When he was staring at the fourth grandmother who came to salvage him, Shen Tan suddenly felt a sinking in his arms, and when he looked down, he found that Shen Hu's lips were as white as paper, his whole face had lost his blood, and he passed out in his arms.
sent Shen Hu back to the room, and instructed the maid to make a pot of "Ningshen Soup".
"Hu'er, if Hao'er has three longs and two shorts, it's not like it's going to kill you!"
Distressedly, she carefully put her hand on her trembling eyes, feeling the long and soft eyelashes squirming in the palm of her hand, like a pair of small night moths gently stretching their soft wings in the night.
A touch of wetness spread, Shen Tan raised his hand, and found that Shen Hu in a coma had blurred tears, and his small nose twitched red and fluttered, like a little milk cat with a disgusting dream.
Shen Tan raised his hand to wipe away a few tears that had slid down, and took the quilt to cover her, feeling distressed as if she was being slaughtered by something.
"Young master, the master is ordering someone to find you!"
The maid with the "Ningshen Soup" in her hand pushed the door in, and when she saw that Shen Tan was still in the house, she hurriedly reported to him the words from the maid in the courtyard of the third master of the Shen family she had met just now.
He nodded and told her to be careful to serve the eldest lady, and after looking at the person lying on the bed, he turned and left.
Quickly returning to his father's room, Shen Tan's mind became inexplicably heavy, and the uncontrollable sense of foreboding increased with every step he took.
"Daddy!"
Turning around and closing the door, Shen Tan called out to the third master of the Shen family who was sitting in the room in a low voice.
"Is Hu'er okay?"
The third master of the Shen family held the bowl with low eyebrows and low eyes, blowing the floating tea leaves in the cup, and asked softly.
Shen Tan, who wanted to sit down, saw that his father did not ask him to sit down, and knew that there was something wrong, so he knelt down on the ground and replied carefully: "That kind of scene, I must be frightened, I have ordered someone to cook 'Ningshen Soup', and it is estimated that it will be fine!"
"That's good!" put down the teacup in his hand, the third master of the Shen family with a solemn face sighed heavily, "Tan'er, today is the day of the ceremony on August 15, grandparents have handed over this important task to you, and Hao'er will be handled by you personally at night!"
"What?me?!"
Shen Tan's heart hurt fiercely as if it had been pinched, and he felt that the hot blood in his whole body was about to freeze in an instant.
"What happened to Luo'er before was a test for you, but now that you have been tested, this fox slaughter will be fully handed over to you in the future!"
The third master of the Shen family didn't seem to understand what his son was worried about, so he didn't care at all, took out the slender dagger wrapped in red silk from his bosom, and handed it over.
"Dad, Hao'er Hu'er is the closest person to me among the many brothers and sisters, but can you let them go?"
Shen Tan knew that Shen Hao, who had received the rite of adulthood, was in danger, but he still refused to give up, and did not hesitate to be scolded with the mentality of giving it a try.
Sure enough, hearing him say this, the third master of the Shen family swept the teacup on the table to the ground, and threw the slender dagger wrapped in red silk into his arms.
"Bastard, you are about to be promoted to the position of the grandson of the Shen family, and you will lead the Shen family to soar in the future, this is your mission and your fate, you can't choose!"
Shen Tan, who was sitting on the ground, looked at the dagger that had killed Shen Luo when the package was scattered and rolled to the ground, as if he smelled a strong smell of blood still wrapped around it, and the scene of that night appeared in his mind again.
He wants to escape, he doesn't want Shen Hao and Shen Hu to end up like that, he's afraid, he's afraid!
The third master of the Shen family didn't pay attention to Shen Tan's appearance at this time, just coughed and walked away.
Gradually, in the night, because of the relationship of August 15, the moon hanging in the sky was like a jade plate, round, big, white and beautiful, just the moonlight sprinkled down, silver and silver shiny as if the snow was spread all over the ground, glowing with a slightly cold and cold light.
A group of people in dark purple robes suddenly broke into Shen Hao's room, and Shen Hao, who was awakened, didn't even have time to ask a question or resist, he was tied up firmly, and a long white silk strangled his mouth, teaching him to only hum but not say a word.
Shen Hao was frightened and instinctively wanted to resist, but found that his strength was infinite, dragging himself as easily as a child, and a large group of people quickly moved towards the courtyard.
After that, Shen Hao saw a large number of people wearing dark purple wide robes and hats with draped veils to cover their faces, and he was dragged into the circle formed by this group of people and thrown heavily to the ground.
Since he was a child, he has not been afraid of anything, but at this time, he was afraid in his heart, and the people next to him may not be able to see it, but the grandfather Shen family old lady and grandmother Shen family old lady hidden in the crowd, he recognized it at a glance.
Shaking the firelight, his fear gradually turned into worry, and he looked around and locked his eyes on a huge magic circle, isn't there a sacrifice ceremony to be held, today is himself, if one day it will be his sister Hu'er?
"Brother!" His heart suddenly hurt fiercely, and Shen Hu's whole body was soaked in cold sweat, "What's going on?"
The strong uneasiness drove her to jump out of bed, and she didn't even bother to put on her coat, so she went straight to the other courtyard with her feelings, and saw her brother Shen Hao tied up in the middle of a group of weirdos from a distance.
The firelight reflected an extreme cold, and a man in a dark purple robe and a hat with a draped veil covering his face was holding a slender dagger and trembling towards his brother Shen Hao.
"Brother!!
Shen Hu didn't care about how weird this scene was now, and rushed towards the crowd screaming like crazy.
