Chapter 148: Liuyunzhuang Strange News
Shangguan Ruoling glanced at Yuwen Chenyi thoughtfully, with a hint of worry on his face, and said, "Do you remember what I told you that I have something to do with Taihao City?"
When Yuwen Chenyi saw her expression, a bad thought suddenly flashed in his mind, and blurted out: "Liuyunzhuang!"
Shangguan Ruoling nodded and said, "Exactly, I was born there. ”
When Yu Wenchen heard this, he was quite surprised and asked, "How did my sister be born there?"
Shangguan Ruoling sighed softly and said, "This matter is a long story, let's catch up with Cuilian first." ”
Yuwen Chenyi snorted and said, "I heard her say that she seems to be going to Qingxuguan and find a Taoist priest to exorcise ghosts in her home." ”
Shangguan Ruoling said: "I know where that Taoist temple is, let's go, let's go after her." ”
The master and apprentice paid for the wine and dinner at the moment, went out of Jufu Building, and chased after them in the direction of Cuilian's travel.
At this time, the sky was still snowing heavily, Cuilian was a weak woman with no power to restrain the chicken, and she was still holding a three-year-old child in her hand, walking very slowly, and the master and apprentice caught up with her in just a moment.
Cuilian was quite surprised to see the two of them chasing after them in the heavy snow, and asked, "Childe, do you have anything else?"
Yuwen Chenyi snorted and said, "Cuilian, are you from Liuyun Village?"
Cuilian nodded and responded, "The little girl is from Liuyunzhuang. ”
Shangguan Ruoling saw that she admitted it, and said straight to the point: "Cuilian, what is the relationship between you and Meng Fei, the owner of Liuyun Village, Old Man Meng?"
Cui Lian replied, "That's my father-in-law." ”
When Shangguan Ruoling heard this, his eyes lit up slightly, and he said, "In this way, you are Meng Yang's wife." ”
When Cuilian heard this, she knew that the two of them must be people who were familiar with the situation in the village, so she nodded and said, "Exactly, how does Gongzi know the name of his husband, and ...... are you?"
Shangguan Ruoling said: "We are friends of the old owner of Meng Lao, and we also have a relationship with Lingfu on several sides, by the way, Cuilian, what happened in the village, why did you let a weak woman come out and show up, and the rest of the people in the village?"
When Cuilian heard this, tears flowed down, and her voice whimpered: "There have been terrible ghosts in the village recently, and they come out to harm people every night, and dozens of villagers have died, and now there are less than twenty people left in the entire Liuyun Village." ”
"What, so many people died!"
The master and apprentice originally heard these rumors from the mouths of those onlookers, but they were skeptical, but at this moment, they were all taken aback when they heard Cuilian say it herself.
Shangguan Ruoling asked, "How long has this incident happened?"
Cuilian choked up and said, "It's been more than half a month!"
Yuwen Chen Yiqi said: "This evil ghost is so ferocious, why don't you leave Zhuangzi, you have to stay inside, and let the evil ghost run amok?"
When Cuilian heard this, the sadness on her face became heavier, and she cried out in a loud voice: "When Zhuangzi first started to haunt the ghosts, his father-in-law, his old man, went to the nearby Taoist temple and invited a few Taoist priests to come and set up an altar. ”
"Helplessly, the ghost is extremely vicious, not only killed these Taoist priests, but also used their blood stains to write "the person who leaves the village is dead" four big characters, but as long as the people in the village leave the manor half a step, they will be killed, and within a moment or three, the corpse will appear in the lobby of the village. ”
When Yuwen Chenyi heard her words, his sword eyebrows furrowed slightly, and asked, "Then how did you escape?"
As soon as Cuilian heard this question, her whole body couldn't help but tremble, as if she was glad that she was able to escape alive, and she was afraid, and after a while, she spoke: "I, I escaped from the tunnel under the desperate cover of Zhuang Ke." ”
Shangguan Ruoling nodded, and said softly: "In this way, my sister is indeed a person from Liuyunzhuang, looking at the wound on your clothes, she must have escaped from the stone cave in the back mountain along the tunnel." ”
Cuilian heard the words, "Ah", her voice couldn't hide her surprise, and said: "This tunnel is not known to outsiders except Cuilian, her father-in-law, and her husband, how did Gongzi know?"
Shangguan Ruoling glanced at her softly, and gently spit out four words in his mouth: "My surname is Shangguan." ”
As soon as these four words came out, Cuilian suddenly let out an exclamation as if she had met a savior, and an unusually surprised look appeared on her face, and she said again and again: "It turns out that the fairy lord has arrived, this time Zhuangzi is saved, this time Zhuangzi is saved!"
As he spoke, he put down the baby in his arms and bowed to the master and apprentice: "Ask the fairy lord to save the lives of our family!"
Shangguan Ruoling helped her up and said, "If you don't ask for help, we will definitely save you, you tell me first, how did you escape from the tunnel." ”
Cuilian stood up and said tremblingly: "Since the evil ghost wrote the death of the villager, nine people have died in the village every night, first the villager, the servant, then the courtyard, the doorman, and then the personal maid and the little maid. ”
"My father-in-law and my husband knew that if we continued like this, it would be our whole family in the end, so they let four good personal servants break through from the four directions of southeast, north, and west to the outside of the village.
They mobilized all the people in the village to guard the small courtyard where the entrance of the cave was located, and let me take the children to secretly escape from the back mountain, one to preserve the bloodline of the Meng family, and the other to ask the master of Qingxu to come and hunt ghosts and exorcise demons. ”
Yuwen Chenyi heard that there was a big flaw in this, and said secretly in his heart: "Since there is a tunnel to escape, why don't you escape together, but only let you escape alone, a weak woman?"
The words were still in my heart, and I immediately woke up: Yes, the evil ghost was staring at every move in the village, so many people disappeared suddenly, how could it not know, and since the father and son of the Meng family are related to their sister, they must be people with martial arts, and it must be staring at it.
This also happens to explain that in order to let their mother and daughter escape, the father and son of the Meng family had to use the lives of four loyal servants to cover for her.
Thinking of this, his eyes glanced at Cuilian and her child, and thought to himself, their mother and daughter escaped safely, and they finally lived up to the hard work of the Meng family's father and son, and it can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune.
Shangguan Ruoling exhaled lightly and said to Cuilian: "Cuilian, you first take the child to find a safe place to live, don't go back for the time being, Liuyunzhuang will leave it to us to find a way." ”
When Cuilian heard this, she said happily: "Okay, I'll take the child back to my parents' house first, and my father-in-law and husband will ask the fairy master." ”
As he spoke, he bowed to the two of them again.
