Help! I just woke up and was stabbed by a big kid

Chapter 30 Ghost knocks on the door

Late at night, dark clouds covered the crescent moon and the whole village fell into dark silence.

Gu Erhua and the men in the family respectfully burned incense to the Buddha and kowtowed three times. Only when the sandalwood scent filled the room did they go to bed peacefully.

"That bear cub dares to scare me!" Gu Erhua said hatefully.

Her husband looked much more depressed and quickly covered her mouth: "Stop talking! What did I say wrong? Did you do that right?"

"What did I do? You're pushing it all onto me again, aren't you?" Gu Erhua was so angry that she twisted him, "You weren't there to help, were you?!"

"Hiss—you crazy woman, you're so cruel!" Her husband cursed in a low voice, "If you have the energy, just give birth to a baby quickly, that's better than anything else!"

"Okay, you dare to bring it up again, don't you? You are disgusted with me! You are so heartless, if it wasn't for my family paying for it, how could you have such a good life today?!"

The two started swearing at each other in the house.

"Boom, boom, boom."

Something tapped softly on the window frame.

"You... shut up, shut up! Who knocked on our window?" Gu Erhua slapped her man hard.

"You must have heard it wrong!" Her man suddenly became obedient, lying stiffly and not daring to move.

"Boom, boom, boom."

The two of them fell completely silent.

The knocking on the window stopped.

"It's the wind. Let's go to bed." Gu Erhua said in a trembling voice. She pulled the quilt to her neck and covered herself tightly.

"Go to sleep." Her man's voice was as soft as a mosquito's and he wrapped himself tightly in the quilt.

"Boom, boom, boom."

The two people wrapped in the quilt shuddered at the same time.

"Hurry up, open the window and take a look!" Gu Erhua was extremely anxious. "…It must be that bastard Gu Dashi who is scaring people in the middle of the night. Let's go out and beat him up!"

Gu Erhua cursed softly but did not move.

Her man didn't move either.

The two people were lying straight on the bed, and at first glance they looked like dead.

"Go quickly!" Gu Erhua urged, gritting her teeth and holding her throat.

"You, you, you, why don't you go!" said the man trembling.

"You ask a woman like me to go out in the middle of the night?!" Gu Erhua felt that she had found an excuse.

"I'm asleep!" The man covered his head.

"Useless thing!" Gu Erhua cursed angrily and crawled to the window tremblingly wrapped in a quilt.

"Boom, boom, boom."

Gu Erhua encouraged herself. The one who was playing tricks must be that bastard Gu Dashi!

She flung open the window!

It was a silent night, with gusts of cold wind and pitch black outside the window, so dark that you couldn't see your hand in front of you.

No one! Gu Erhua's pupils shrank. She was sure that she opened the window immediately after hearing the knock, but it was so quiet outside that there was not even a ghost!

"Boom boom boom!"

A knocking sound suddenly rang out in the room!

“OMG!!!!”

"Ah!!!!!! Ghost!!!!"

After two screams, the man hiding in the quilt fainted from fear. Gu Erhua was so frightened that she danced and screamed desperately, throwing the quilt, pillow, clothes and basket on the kang onto the square table where the sound came from. The candlesticks and tea bowls on the table fell to the ground.

After the earth-shaking chaos, the house finally calmed down.

Gu Erhua's eyes were bloodshot, her hair was disheveled, and she sat on the kang panting. She looked around and screamed, "Who is it?! Come out to me!!!"

As if responding to her, an old and hoarse voice sounded in Gu Erhua's ears. The cold wind blew against her neck, as if it was directly against her ears.

"Gu... Er... Hua..."

"Ahhhh!!!!!!"

Gu Erhua could no longer suppress the fear in her heart. Her eyes rolled back and she fainted.

Wu Feng, who was squatting on the kang, reached out and touched the carotid arteries of the two people who had fainted, then cleared his throat.

"So easy?" Wu Yun poked his head out of the window.

"Listening to their previous conversation, it seems like they really did something to the Gu family." Wu Feng's voice still sounded a little strange, and he coughed twice.

"The poorer and less educated a place is, the more likely it is to breed evil people." Wu Yun entered the house.

The two men searched the house in the dark without lighting a candle.

"I heard that the Gu family was quite wealthy five or six years ago." Wu Feng, wearing gloves, gently pulled out a dark box from the kang hole. He opened the lid and found small silver and jewelry inside.

"It seems that after the master was picked up by Gu Mengliu, his family fell into ruin. Therefore, Gu Dashi thinks that the master is a jinx." Wu Yun said in a low voice as he looked at the things in the drawer of the square table.

"...That's not right." Wu Feng wanted to put the box back into the kang, but after trying to lift it up, he couldn't.

"Hmm?" Wu Yun leaned over.

"What kind of box is this? Is it made of iron? It's so heavy." Wu Feng lit the tinder.

As soon as there was light, they immediately realized that there was something wrong with the box.

The box was a palm deep, but when the lid was opened, there was only a few inches of space for small change and jewelry.

"There is a mezzanine." Wu Feng said.

He carefully lifted a corner of the silk cloth covering the bottom, taking care not to disturb the valuables on top. After pressing and shaking it for a while, Wu Feng pulled out two thin daggers, inserted them into the gaps between the bottom boards, and took out the entire upper layer of valuables along with the bottom board.

The two people were startled.

There were two neatly arranged layers of gold ingots in the interlayer of the box.

The specification is ten taels, and there are six pieces in a layer, which adds up to one hundred and twenty taels of gold.

"...Can they produce 120 taels of gold by farming?" Wu Feng said blankly.

Wu Yun didn't say anything. He carefully took out one and turned over the seal on the bottom. There were six small characters on it: Made by imperial decree of Luofu, Beiqin.

"This is something from the capital." Wu Yun said.

"What do you mean?" Wu Feng also saw the line of words.

"The currency of Northern Qin is managed by the Qin Currency Bureau, which has several currency offices under its jurisdiction, responsible for the minting of gold, silver and copper coins of different specifications. The gold ingots produced by the Luo Mansion Gold Mint are all rewards from the palace. Although there is no palace seal, there is no other way to obtain them." Wu Yun said.

"Could this Gu Erhua be the descendant of some noble family?" Wu Feng touched his chin, "Could it be that there are relatives of Gu Daxueshi in this Gujia Village?"

"I think it was given to them by someone in the capital." Wuyun signaled Wufeng to put the things back.

"It is also possible that they were stolen from the original Gu family. I just heard them say that they did something sorry to the Gu family." Wu Feng did as he was told and put all the items back in their original state and pushed them back into the kang.

"Report to the master." Wu Yun searched other objects again, but found nothing suspicious for the time being.

"Well. What about these two people?" Wu Feng looked at the two people who had fainted.

"...We'll continue tomorrow. The master didn't say that we would only retaliate once." Wu Yun said indifferently.

"How cruel! What should we do tomorrow?" Wu Feng floated out of the window.

Wu Yun followed behind him and closed the window carefully.

A turtle dove flew staggeringly across the night sky, and after a while, it flew away staggeringly.
