The ancient town of the Qingfang series
。
When Harukata and Childe Yin'er came here, it was the height of summer.
What they didn't expect was that there was such an ancient town in such a rough north.
The ancient town is surrounded by mountains, the stream is gurgling, and the lotus pavilions in the stream are slim and elegant, with white and red lotus flowers.
Knowing that the shouting day and night shows the tranquility of this ancient town.
"But what did the woman in black do when she brought us here?" asked Childe Yin'er anyway.
She didn't have any doubts in her heart, she had to say it.
Ten days ago, Jiangnan, Water Pavilion.
Qingfang and Gongzi Yin'er admired the lotus flowers in the lake and drank grape wine.
"I've been so bored these days, I don't even have anything to do, I'm almost sick. Childe Yin'er started her grumbling again.
She is tired of doing things, and boring people who have nothing to do.
"Oh, there's nothing wrong with that! it's hard to be idle, and it's easy to be idle, so why not?" Harukata smiled and persuaded.
"What's so good! It's better to walk around. Childe argued.
"As you walk around, you wonder when you'll be as relaxed as you are now. ”
"No, I definitely won't this time, if you can take me out. Childe Yin'er said busily, and even the wine glass that was about to reach her lips was put down by her.
"That's good, but where are we going?" said Harukata with a shrug.
"yes!
Childe said and suddenly stopped.
Because she saw something, a person.
She saw Harukata's nearby sword, in the hand of a woman in black.
Naturally, Haruka also saw it.
Childe Yin'er suddenly felt very interesting, someone dared to steal Qingfang's close sword.
The nearby sword was a treasure of the sunny side, and now, it was stolen by a woman in black. Now it's sunny and there is something to do.
The woman in black flashed her sword in front of the sunny, and then disappeared into the crowd like a gust of wind.
"Hahaha, this person is so funny, so bold!" Childe Yin'er laughed a little angrily.
Haruka sat there quietly and asked, "Oh, how can this person be interesting and bold?"
"Of course she was funny, because it was said to me, and I finally had something to do. Childe Yin'er ran to Qingfang's side, pulled his sleeve and said.
"That audacity must be aimed at me?" said Harukata with a funny smile.
"She's so bold, she's going to steal anything from you. Don't you think she's bold?" Childe sat down angrily.
"Well, it's bold. Harukata echoed.
"So what are we going to do now?" asked Childe Yin'er, her face full of excitement.
"Of course I went to chase it. After saying that, Qing Fang pulled Gongzi Yin'er and chased after him.
The woman in black's light skills seemed to be very good, and Qing Fang could still catch up with him alone, but with Gongzi Yin'er, he had to slow down a little.
However, the woman in black didn't seem to want to get rid of them, and always slowed down when they were about to lose them.
So they can still chase all the time, all the way to such a beautiful northern ancient town.
Now, Qingfang and Gongzi Yin'er are drinking in that antique attic, so comfortable.
Childe Yin'er was going to continue chasing, but Haruka said they didn't need it anymore.
They really don't need it anymore.
Because the woman in black appeared in this attic and took the initiative to hand over the sword.
Harugata took the sword and drank the wine on the table.
"What did you bring me here for?" Harugata asked relaxedly, not angry at all.
"It's really a sunny side. The woman smiled, all kinds of amorous.
The woman continued: "My name is Yi Zhuxian, and I live in this ancient town. ”
Harukata didn't answer, he knew she would continue.
But Gongzi Yin'er said, "Then what is this town called, and why did you bring us here?"
"This ancient town is called Juexiu Town, and the largest ancient house here is me...... Yi Zhuxian hesitated a little, paused for a moment and said, "My future husband's home." ”
"Then you must have something to do with your husband when you came to me. Harukata said.
"My husband's name is Gu Jueyi, and his family is the most prestigious family here. Originally, the Gu family was also a family of rivers and lakes, but since coming to this ancient town, the Gu family has abandoned martial arts and engaged in business. ”
Yi Zhuxian's face suddenly turned red when she said this, and said, "I'm going to marry Jueyi next month." ”
"You didn't come here to ask me to attend your wedding, did you?" said Harukata jokingly.
"It's a good thing to get married!" Childe interjected.
"Of course not!" Yi Zhuxian continued, "It happened half a year ago, when everyone woke up early that morning and found the housekeeper dead in front of the desperate door. ”
"Oh?"
Yi Zhuxian continued: "Later, some people said that they saw Jue Yi suddenly come out of the house, ran to the housekeeper's room like crazy and killed him, and then moved his body to his own door. ”
Harukata stroked his bearded chin, paused for a moment and said, "And then?"
Then there were rumors that Absolute Reliance had inherited their family's mental illness. Yi Zhuxian's eyes turned rosy as she spoke.
"You're worried he's really mentally ill?"
Yi Zhuxian was silent.
Harukata didn't speak.
Gongzi Yin'er suddenly said: "Since you have a genetic disease, then his father may also have this disease!"
Yi Zhuxian seemed to be suddenly eye-catching, and said to himself: "Yes, yes...... , but I don't seem to have heard rumors about the old man having this disease. ”
"Then check it out. Harukata said.
Yi Zhuxian said happily: "So you promised to help me!"
Childe Yin'er snapped: "Of course, we have nothing to do now anyway." ”
So Yi Zhuxian led Qingfang and Gongzi Yin'er to the ancient mansion.
As soon as Qingfang entered the ancient mansion, he felt a deep feeling.
It felt like there was sin here.
Is there really sin here?
"Where is Gu Gongzi now?" asked Harukata.
Yi Zhuxian was a little speechless: "Since the death of the housekeeper, some people said that he was killed, and he was locked up by the old man and not allowed to leave the room for half a step." ”
"It also makes sense. ”
"Can I take you to see Old Man Gu?"
"Of course, it doesn't seem good to come to his house and not see the master. ”
When they came to the hinterland of the ancient mansion, the old man was drinking in the water pavilion.
The sound of the water was clear, and it fell from a high place, and flowed down the stream to the lake.
The old man was already fifty years away, but he still looked strong, and his bright eyes shone from time to time, which made people feel intimidating.
Yi Zhuxian seems to be very afraid of the old man.
"Shibo, this is a tired world, I want him to help Jueyi find out the truth. ”
After hearing this, the old man immediately stood up: "Qingfang is here, welcome, and the matter of the dog will be handed over to Qingfang hero." ”
"He's very kind. Childe Yin'er thinks.
"I wonder if you can let me meet Gu Gongzi?"
"Oh, of course. Bamboo fiber, take the Qingfang hero to the room where he leans. ”
Yi Zhuxian took them to the ancient house.
There is a quaint lock on the outside, and you can see that it is a good lock by looking at the lock mouth, and there is only one key.
"Is there only one key to this lock?" Harukata asked.
"Yes, this is what the old man gave me just now. Yi Zhuxian said and opened the door.
Gu Jue leaned on the corner of the bed, his body kept shaking, Yi Zhu Xian walked over and tried to calm him down; Gu Jue leaned on to see that it was Yi Zhu Xian, his expression calmed down a lot, but when he saw Qing Fang and Gongzi Yin'er, he immediately became nervous again.
"Jueyi, these two are Qingfang and Gongzi Yin'er that you asked me to invite. ”
Gu Jueyi suddenly stepped out of bed, came to the door, and then closed the door.
"You may be seated. Gu Jueyi spoke for the first time.
Qing Fang felt that Gu Jueyi had suddenly become gentle and elegant.
"You must wonder why I'm doing this!"
Qing Fang didn't answer, he knew that Gu Jueyi would definitely continue.
"I noticed that someone was watching me all the time. ”
"I understand. Harukata said. "What do you think was wrong the night the butler died?"
Gu Jueyi's eyes suddenly turned red: "I don't know,...... He's always been so kind to me......" Gu Jueyi couldn't cry anymore.
"Growing up, the housekeeper took care of everything, like half of his father. Yi Zhuxian pulled Jue Yi to the edge of the bed and sat down.
After a moment, Gu Jueyi's mood calmed down a little, and then said: "I went to bed early that night, but at midnight, I suddenly had a fluttering feeling, which made me very excited, but I wanted to sleep, and then I didn't know what happened after that, even I didn't know if I killed the butler. ”
Harugata touched his chin and fell into deep thought.
After leaving Gu Jueyi's room, Qing Fang suddenly asked Yi Zhuxian: "Where is Gu Gongzi's mother? Where is he? Why haven't you heard of it?" ”
"My mother died three years ago. Yi Zhuxian's face was sad.
"How did you die?"
Yi Zhu thought for a while and said: "I remember that the weather was very good that day, and the summer breeze blew from time to time, so the old man took his wife to the lake for a boat, but for some reason, the lady suddenly fell into the water in the middle of the lake, and the lady died because she was not saved in time." ”
"Did the old man say how the lady fell into the water?"
He said. ”
"Got it?"
"Well, he said he pushed her down. ”
"Old Master Gu admitted that he pushed his wife into the water?" asked Gongzi Yin'er in surprise.
"Yes. ”
"Why?" asked Childe Yin'er.
The old man said that he suddenly went insane and pushed his wife into the water. ”
The water pavilion is quiet and the stream is murmuring.
The old man was still sitting in the water pavilion.
"Yes, I pushed my wife into the water back then. Then he added, "I'm mentally ill, I know." ”
"Then what do you think about Gu Gongzi's killing of the housekeeper?" asked Qing Fang tightly.
"I ...... I don't think it's going to be a kill, because ...... Because he is not my son, he will not inherit my disease. ”
As soon as the old man's words came out, he really shocked Qingfang.
Gu Jueyi is not the son of the old man.
"At that time, I knew that I was mentally ill, so I did not have children with my wife, but passed on the housekeeper's son. ”
The night was deep, and the summer sky was so bright that the sunny side had already decided to go.
He is no longer needed here.
Gu Jueyi's room was still locked, and suddenly the door opened naturally, and a wisp of purple smoke drifted into the room, Gu Jueyi suddenly sat up, and then fell down.
A knife slowly approached the bed where Gu Jue leaned, and the moonlight outside the window reflected the blade of the knife, illuminating the man's face.
Gu Jueyi sat up suddenly and snatched the knife.
The one on the bed is not Gu Jueyi, it is Qingfang.
"Old man!" said Harukata.
"That person turned out to be an old man. ”
"Why?" Gu Jueyi suddenly collapsed, and his father was going to kill him.
Qingfang and Gongzi Yin'er were walking leisurely on the road, they were going to meet Jiangnan.
"How do you know that the murderer is an old man?
"He didn't. ”
"Why?"
"Because he suddenly discovered a secret. And I discovered this secret. ”
"You've discovered it, too, what's the secret?"
"Gu Jueyi is indeed the son of the housekeeper, but he is also the biological son of the lady. ”
"You mean to say that the old man found out that his wife was unfaithful to him and had a son with the housekeeper. ”
"That's right. ”
"But, how could he not know that his wife had a child?"
"At that time he was still young, busy with business all day, and that year, he had been out of town, and when he came back, the child was already half a year old. ”
"How did you find out?"
"I went to the housekeeper's room and found this. Harukata said and handed it to Childe Yin'er.
That's all the housekeeper's records.
"What about three years ago?" Childe Yin'er suddenly stopped talking, and she suddenly felt a chill.
"Yes, the old man discovered this secret three years ago, and he murdered his wife during that boating trip. ”
"Then why did he kill Gu Jueyi until now?"
"If two people suddenly die in the family, it is easy to arouse suspicion. ”
