The news of the death of the old man of the Ning family spread throughout Duxiu Village in less than a quarter of an hour.

The entrance to Ningfu was crowded with people in an instant. Xia Lian's curse seemed to have come true, and there was actually another life in this Ning Mansion.

Before there were so many people that it was impossible to get through, An Qing and Ning Dantong were quickly pulled back to the Ning Mansion by Xu Changyan, and then he firmly closed the door.

The noise outside the door grew louder. In this perennial village, which is almost unchanged, it is indeed a tense thing for someone to suddenly die violently.

This incident happened in the Ning family, which made people more and more excited, speculating about the secrecy.

And Ning Dantong, who had just returned home for less than an hour, was pale, and let Xu Chang support him and sit back in the hall.

An Qing also followed behind tremblingly. She had seen a lot of murders, but she didn't know how the master of the Ning family died, and An Qing felt uncomfortable at the thought that she was very likely to be in the same room with the deceased.

Xu Chang poured a cup of tea for Ning Dantong, but the latter couldn't take it with trembling hands. After sitting in place for a long time, Ning Dantong suddenly stood up, startling An Qing and Xu Chang.

Unexpectedly, Ning Dantong just untied the piano on his back and put it on his lap, sat on the ground, hung his head and plucked the strings, and the sound was difficult to hear.

Xu Chang glanced at An Qing helplessly, turned around and went to the curtain of the side room, knocked on the door frame, and said respectfully: "Madam, there are a lot of people crowded outside the door, and they all want to come in and take a look." Young Master, he was also a little uneasy because of this......"

The ear chamber didn't look small, and there was a fragrant smell coming from within, and the pink curtain was embroidered with a golden phoenix, and it was lifelike.

At this time, a fresh breeze blew outside the door, and the pink gauze curtain was half lifted, and An Qing could vaguely catch a glimpse of the woman lying on her side on the bed, her sideburns were scattered, and she was holding a scroll of scripts, but her eyes were staring at the top blankly.

"Hmm, that's a hassle. The woman's eyes narrowed, and her voice was languid, "I don't want to get up......"

Xu Chang looked embarrassed: "However, the old man's corpse still needs to be stored......"

"If you die, you die, what is there to reap. The woman wrapped the quilt, spread out the notebook, and said lazily: "Go and call me first, and then call me." ”

"Yes. ”

Xu Chang looked helpless, and An Qing listened to it in the back. It was her husband who had an accident, but this lady didn't even have the heart to see what was going on, so she just lay on the bed and flipped through the book.

Xu Chang just retreated silently, and Ning Dantong in the hall was also fiddling with the strings, and An Qing felt that this family was strange and almost terrifying for no reason.

Xu Chang turned his head and looked at An Qing helplessly: "Can you please wait a moment in the Ning Mansion?" The county government is far away from here, and the hall is also located in the north of the village, so I have to go from the back door." ”

The so-called hall is a small yamen set up in a county such as Duxiu Village, which is far away from the county, and there are usually only three to five people, including the village chief, and it is enough to hear all kinds of trivial matters in the village.

An Qing nodded: "Okay." ”

Xu Chang smiled bitterly: "By the way, the door must be crowded...... I've got to get out of the backyard. ”

An Qing vaguely felt that something was wrong: "The lord of the Ning Mansion...... What's going on?"

"Jumped down from the top of the Guanyuan Pavilion. Xu Chang twisted his head, "Anyway, the lady and the young master don't take it seriously, if you want to go and see, just follow behind me." Just don't mess with the scene. ”

An Qing's heart moved, and she followed.

When it comes to the investigation of clues at the scene of the crime, An Qing is naturally far inferior to Zhao Wu'an, but when she heard Xu Chang talk about the cause of Master Ning's death, and then looked at the performance of these people in Ning Mansion, she inexplicably felt a strange feeling in her heart.

Ningfu is not big, and it can be said to be a drop in the bucket compared to Liuye Villa.

Xu Chang led the way in front, and after a while, he arrived at the backyard, and the Guanyuan Pavilion mentioned before should be a study building that divides the front and back yards, which is three stories high, and is the commanding height of the entire mansion.

Although she had been prepared in her heart, when she saw the scene of the murder with her own eyes, An Qing still couldn't help but feel sick to her stomach, and hurriedly held on to the wall to suppress the vomit in her heart.

The corpse that fell in the courtyard seemed to weigh more than 300 catties at first glance, and it was incredibly fat, and even the blood stains on the ground that had not dried up were a little shiny.

Ning Longhai, the head of the Ning Mansion, fell in the middle of his own backyard like this. In front of him was a candle-lit mourning hall, and there were two white silk sticks several feet long hanging on the pillar in front of the hall, but only one was still fluttering in the wind, and the other fell in the courtyard, stained with scarlet blood.

Looking up, the three-story study building standing in front of this courtyard is called Guanyuan Pavilion, and there is a platform on the third floor that pokes out, which should be used for elegant style.

At the bottom of the outermost parapet of the observation deck, there is a copper pillar on the ground with a diameter of seven inches wide and a height of about one foot seven, engraved with sinuous stripes, the top of which is as sharp as a spire, and it is still stained with a little blood.

An Qing stared at the blood-stained bronze pillar for a long time, only to realize that the engravings on it were all famous works of major calligraphers since the Wei and Jin dynasties.

"The lord has always liked calligraphy, and his favorite thing in his life is to drink and eat while lifting the pen on the top of the Guanyuan Pavilion. Xu Chang explained, "That bronze pillar was also set up according to the master's wishes. ”

An Qing looked up at the platform on the top of the Guanyuan Pavilion, and then stared at the copper pillar for a long time.

Ning Longhai's body fell next to the copper pillar, less than a foot away.

"So, did he fall from the roof of the building and just hit this pillar......" Looking at the scene in front of him, An Qing seemed to be able to only come to this conclusion.

Xu Chang closed his eyes helplessly: "Girl, forgive me...... I've got to get out of here and find someone. ”

He pointed to the wall, which was slightly shorter than the front yard, and said, "Xu Chang apologizes for involving the girl." ”

An Qing shook her head and said, "It's okay, compared to this, I think that the people in your Ning Mansion are all too calm......"

If she is calm, it is because she has already experienced a lot of life and death situations with Zhao Wu'an, and she has heard about Master Ning's accident before seeing the corpse, so at most she is a little resistant, not frightened.

However, these people in the Ning Mansion seem to be a little too calm about the death of the head of the family. Regardless of the creepy lady, even Xu Chang could hardly detect the sadness in her eyes at this time.

Xu Chang was stunned for a moment, and hesitated: "This ......"

"The death of the master is originally a matter recognized by everyone. ”

In the silent courtyard, where the two of them looked at each other, a third voice suddenly sounded. Jiao Ruoying's cry, but it was close to her ears, so frightened that An Qing trembled, and almost shouted in horror.

Then, a pair of arms slammed around her waist, and a pair of bouncy objects pressed against her back.

"Hehe, little girl, it's not so easy to get away when you come to our Ning Mansion?" The warbler's crying voice was close to her ears, and she breathed like an orchid.

An Qing was almost frightened.

Xu Chang frowned: "Guixi, don't be like this, Miss An is a guest." ”

And his gaze fell behind the woman.

The woman known as Guixi smiled, but still obediently let go of her hand. An Qing was so frightened that she bounced out, turned her head to look behind her in horror, only to find that a slender woman was standing behind her, smiling maliciously at her.

"Guest, our Ning Mansion, when have we ever had a guest?" Guixi bared his teeth and laughed, revealing a large piece of pink gums, "Anyone who arrives in Ning Mansion will not become the food of the master?

As she spoke, she turned her head and glanced at the girl in green standing behind her.

The man standing behind Guixi was slightly shorter than her, but his figure was just as graceful. She and Xu Chang glanced at each other slightly, and then heard her sister's answer, and said in a panic: "No, it's not like this......"

The scene in front of her became more and more chaotic, An Qing was already stunned and didn't know what to do, Xu Chang hurriedly explained: "These are the two maids in our house, this is Guixi, and the one in the back is her sister, Jinlan." ”

An Qing sighed: "It turned out to be the maid in the house." Ning Mansion is so small, there are actually two maids......"

"Isn't it weird?" Guixi smiled and hugged Jinlan, his hands roaming back and forth on her, "What big family wouldn't have a few maids with a good figure and a good face like Jinlan." If there is a surplus of financial resources, how can one or two be enough, and there must be a few more. ”

An Qing couldn't help but suddenly realize: after all, not every mansion is like Willow Leaf Villa, where all the domestic servants have been dismissed when they have a premonition that the enemy is approaching.

However, thinking of what Guixi said before, An Qing couldn't help but take a few steps back, and said with a palpitating face: "However, what do you mean by what you said before......?"

That's what it means. Why are we not surprised at all by the death of the master? Why is this Ning Mansion you have seen so quiet and so strange?"

Guixi laughed more and more crazy, even if Xu Chang scolded him on the side, he was still the same.

A gust of wind blew, and the fire candles in the mourning hall were extinguished two or three, startling a pile of yellow paper, sprinkled across the long sky, and the white silk was rolled.

"Sister, don't be like this......" While pulling Guixi's sleeve, Jin Lan looked at Xu Chang helplessly and aggrievedly, while the latter roared in a low voice with a thick neck: "Guixi!"

"Son, let's go, this is not the place for you. Guixi whispered.

Guixi suddenly shook off Jinlan and took a step back, his eyes blurred, as if a golden flame had flashed out.

"This Ning Mansion has long been cursed!Hahahahahahaha

Xu Chang quickly pounced and pushed Guixi to the ground, and Jin Lan took a step back in fright.

"Let go of me, you bastard! brute that stained my sister's innocent body!" Guixi struggled frantically under him, his expression hideous.

And Xu Chang always frowned tightly, and spared no effort to suppress Guixi in his hands, Guixi was helpless, and bit Xu Chang's shoulder fiercely, took the opportunity to push him away, turned around and slipped out.

Xu Chang pressed his shoulders and sat on the spot grinning, Jin Lan squatted beside him worriedly. An Qing, who was standing behind, was stunned.

What's going on?

"Makes you laugh. Xu Chang gritted his teeth and said, "Guixi has always been like this, a little crazy." ”

An Qing was stunned, and just wanted to wave her hand and say that it was okay, but at a glance, she saw Jinlan half-kneeling beside Xu Chang, with a look of longing in her eyes, and half-removed the profane clothes on her body.

An Qing was so frightened that she took another step back, and an extremely ominous feeling rose in her heart.

Guixi said that the entire Ning Mansion was cursed.

Maybe she's right. The people of the entire Ning Mansion seem to have some terrifying illness.
