Chapter 28: Night Visit to Tan Mansion
Steward Deng looked at Song Qian and was silent for a while before speaking. Steward Deng took Song Qian to a remote courtyard. Along the way, Song Qian secretly observed the Tan Mansion. There were only a few people in the huge Tan Mansion.
"Your name is Song Qian, right? I will call you Xiao Qian from now on. This is where you live. There are no rules in the Tan Mansion, but there is one thing you must remember. Madam and the young master don't like people walking around at night, so don't go out if you have nothing to do. You should rest today, and I will take you to meet the young master tomorrow." After saying this, Butler Deng left.
"Come out." Song Qian said indifferently with a hint of helplessness.
"Hey, how did you know I was here?" Yun Fu said flatteringly as she lifted up her invisible cloak.
"I heard the noise just now. I'm afraid the only thing that can hide from my eyes is your invisible cloak." Song Qian continued helplessly: "Didn't I tell you to meet up at night? Why are you here now?"
"Hehe, it's because I'm worried about you~ And I want Mo Xuan and Xingyao to get to know each other better." Yun Fu said, touching her nose guiltily.
"I see you are just too curious about the bride of the Tan family. You can't wait until the evening, so you followed me here." Song Qian said with a doting smile.
"Okay, I'm indeed too curious, but it's also true that I care about you and want Mo Xuan and Xingyao to get along well." Yun Fu said with a pout.
"So what did you see?" Song Qian asked, gently touching Yun Fu's head.
"Everyone you met along the way in the Tan Mansion was unusually silent, as if they had some unspeakable secret." Yun Fu thought for a moment and said.
"Well, not only that, you noticed that Madam Tan had a string of Buddhist beads in her hand, which she never put down even when drinking tea. As for those maids and servants, something was sticking out of each of their sleeves. Although it was blocked and I couldn't see it clearly, I guess it was talisman paper, which should be for safety. Moreover, the houses we saw along the way all had Bagua mirrors hanging at the door, and the terrain here also looks like a formation." Song Qian said lightly while playing with Yun Fu's hand.
"Talisman paper Bagua mirror? Everyone in the Tan Mansion has a Talisman paper Bagua mirror, plus the brides who died, wow, this Tan Mansion is not simple." Yun Fu sighed and continued: "I have seen the formation here, it is used to exorcise ghosts, but the power is not great. Although there is resentment in the Tan Mansion, I haven't seen any ghosts."
"My lady, you even know this. You are worthy of being my lady." Song Qian teased. Yun Fu rolled her eyes silently when she heard Song Qian's words.
"Little Egg, did you detect anything abnormal during the scan? Like a ghost or something?" Yun Fu was worried that she had missed something.
"Host, the results show nothing unusual. However, the place where the Tan Mansion is located was originally an excellent Feng Shui site, but now it seems to be in decline." Little Egg said with some surprise.
"Song Qian, there's something wrong with the Tan Mansion. Why don't we check it out tonight?" Yun Fu suddenly said to Song Qian with a serious face.
"Yeah, that's exactly what I meant." Song Qian said lightly.
"Heh, is it useful for you to hang these now? It's ridiculous, take them all down, I don't need these." A man in white clothes said coldly while looking at the group of people in front of him.
"Lin'er, why don't you listen to your mother?" Mrs. Tan said heartbrokenly. Tan Lin looked at everything in front of him expressionlessly, turned around, tore down the Bagua mirror he had just hung up, threw it on the ground, and went back into the house.
"This Young Master Tan doesn't look like a sick person?" Yun Fu, who was hiding in the invisible cloak, looked in the direction of Tan Lin with some curiosity and said.
"What? Are you interested in him?" Song Qian narrowed his eyes and said dangerously to Yun Fu.
"Haha, how could that be~ I just think that Young Master Tan is not as sickly a young man as the outside world says. Besides, with you here, why would I look down on anyone else? Right, you have to have confidence in yourself." Yun Fu said quickly to please.
"Hmph, that's better." Song Qian snorted arrogantly.
the other side......
Seeing that Tan Lin was unwilling to hang up the Bagua mirror, Mrs. Tan had no choice but to order the servants to remove those ghost-exorcising items and return to her room.
"Xiao Qi, I'm tired. You should go and rest first." Mrs. Tan said to the maid who was serving her.
"Yes, ma'am." Xiao Qi glanced at her lady who said she was tired but was kneeling in front of the Buddha statue in the outer room, then closed the door and left.
"Buddha, I know that I have committed serious sins, but our Tan family has only one son. I hope Buddha will not punish Lin'er. I am willing to take all the responsibility for Lin'er." After Mrs. Tan finished speaking, she chanted in front of the Buddha statue and returned to the inner room to rest until very late.
"What do you think Mrs. Tan meant by saying this? Could it be that the murders in the Tan Mansion in recent years are related to this Young Master Tan?" Yun Fu said suspiciously.
"Let's go, we'll go back first." Song Qian glanced at Mrs. Tan's yard and said to Yun Fu.
"It seems that I have to stay for a while longer. My lady, you go back to find Mo Xuan first and check the bodies of the brides to see if there is anything unusual. I will stay in the Tan Mansion and observe for a while longer." Song Qian said to Yun Fu after they returned to the remote courtyard.
"Okay, then you just have to be careful." After saying that, Yun Fu put on an invisible cloak and left the Tan Mansion.
late at night......
"Give me back my life, give me back my life~"
"No, no, I didn't mean to hurt you, please let me go, please send it to me..."
A few days later...
"Madam, Madam..." Xiaoqi hurriedly ran to Mrs. Tan's door and shouted.
"What's the matter? Why are you shouting and yelling?" Mrs. Tan frowned.
"Madam, the missing Xiao Meng has been found." Xiao Qi continued hesitantly: "But she... is dead."
"What? How could he be dead?" Mrs. Tan suddenly opened the door and continued, "Let's go and take a look."
"Another one died. Can we still stay in the Tan Mansion?" Song Qian fell into deep thought as he listened to the whispers of several maids beside him. He silently observed the corpse and soon came to a conclusion.
"Madam is here, stop talking now, or you'll be punished by her." A maid suddenly said.
"Everyone go away, there's nothing to see, go away quickly." Xiao Qi got a signal from Mrs. Tan to disperse the crowd.
night......
"Madam, have you found any clues?" Song Qian looked at Yun Fu and asked calmly, completely ignoring Mo Xuan and Chen Xingyao who were standing by. My master really completely ignored me, Mo Xuan thought.
"Well, we found out that although the brides died in different ways, they all had one thing in common. They all had traces of being pierced by needles. Maybe because the traces were too small, the coroners didn't notice them and thought they died suddenly." Yun Fu frowned.
"Well, I also saw a corpse today. Although it was unrecognizable due to blisters, I still saw slight marks on her neck. But if these marks were caused by a rope, there shouldn't be only such slight marks left." Song Qian frowned.
"There won't be any deep marks..." Chen Xingyao murmured.
