Nightmare Apostle

Instead of going directly back to the room where Yang Xiao and others were staying, the old housekeeper took Tong Hanmi Shu back to the Buddhist hall. At this time, two women were kneeling in the Buddhist hall.

The patriarch’s wife and the young girl she had met before, before the housekeeper’s old woman could report the situation, the young girl jumped up from the futon, stumbled over, and snatched the tattered clothes from the housekeeper’s hand, which was Liu Haiping. The one I replaced.

Placing the tattered clothes on her body, the patriarch's daughter smiled like a maniac, with exaggerated cracks at the corners of her mouth, revealing a set of dark white teeth.

However, the patriarch's wife knew the rules and came to Tong Hanmi Shu. She said some kind words, which were nothing more than words of gratitude, and then asked the housekeeper to take them back to rest.

"Madam, do you need to hide for a while tonight?" Tong Han asked.

This sentence seemed to hit the pain point of the patriarch's wife. After a while, the wife sighed, "As long as you are targeted by that monster, there is no use hiding anywhere. I told Ning'er not to go anywhere tonight. I pray to the Buddha quietly in this Buddhist hall. I hope that the Buddha will give my daughter a way to live for the sake of being kind to people in our Dujia Village. "

As soon as she finished speaking, the patriarch's wife seemed to suddenly remember something, and immediately added: "Of course, I also pray for Miss Liu. Your generosity and righteousness will never be forgotten by our Dujia Village!"

It was already half dark, and Tong Han Mi Shu left. When he returned to the room where Yang Xiao and others were, he immediately recounted what he had seen and heard. As expected, the wardrobe hidden behind the screen aroused everyone's suspicion.

After hearing that there were peach blossoms in the four seasons pictures on the screen, Cheng Cha couldn't help but frowned, "Peach blossoms? Are you sure you read that right?"

"No." Tong Han was very confident in his eyesight.

"That's strange. How come there are so many peach blossoms in the boudoir of a girl who hasn't left the palace?" Cheng Cha asked and answered: "The ancients valued integrity and integrity the most, especially in wealthy families, who valued integrity more than their lives. , Peach blossoms are overflowing with passion, and many flowers can bloom on one branch. This is contrary to the ancient theory of chastity and will never appear in a woman's boudoir. "

"What you said is too absolute." Lu Youcheng suddenly spoke, looking at Cheng Cha with doubt in his eyes, "My boss used to be in the antique business, and there were peach blossoms in the bedrooms of women from wealthy families. Screens or objects are common.”

"You are right, but I only know one but not the other. Women are divided into those who have left the court and those who have not left the court, that is, married and unmarried. Women who have not left the court should avoid peach blossoms, but once they get married, the reverse will happen. Well, peach blossoms also have the meaning of having many children and grandchildren. After a woman gets married and leaves home, her family will place some peach blossom branches or decorations with peach blossoms in the woman’s former boudoir, which means that the married woman will bear fruit as soon as possible. , After all, if you want to establish yourself in your husband's family, you can't do it without having heirs."

After Cheng Cha said these words, the atmosphere at the scene became weird. Yang Xiao thought for a moment and then suddenly said: "In other words, if this screen is not placed randomly, it proves that the daughter of the patriarch of the Du family has been married before."

Quan Doufeng was stunned when he heard this and blurted out: "What about her husband?"

Everyone at Yang Xiaotong Hancheng's coffee table looked at him as if he were an idiot. The next second, Quan Doufeng shuddered violently when he reacted, "It's...in the closet! Her husband is dead, and the body is there." Hidden in that closet!"

Thinking along this line of thinking, Sui Chengguo asked whether the monster mentioned by the head of the Du family could be his son-in-law, the husband of the head's daughter. This man was killed by people from the Du family village, and his ghost lingered before turning into a fierce ghost. Come for revenge.

The logic barely made sense, but Yang Xiao felt something was wrong. First of all, he couldn't figure out why the head of the Du family dared to put the body in his daughter's boudoir. Also, it was inconvenient for him to say this clearly. After all, he had seen the ghost. Yeah, that thing didn't feel like a human being to him.

"Where are the gold bars you mentioned?" Yang Xiao asked, "Take it out and show it to me."

Taking the gold bar from Tong Han's hand, the gold bar was not big, but very weighty and quite heavy on his hand. Naturally, he noticed the strange raised circles on the gold bar.

But after looking at it for a while, he couldn't see anything. There were polished marks inside the circle. He guessed that this might be some kind of mark, similar to an ancient seal, which was used to identify one's identity. Nowadays, it has been polished. Those were the clues that had been lost, and there would be no results if they continued the discussion. Yang Xiao asked Tong Han Mi Shu to go to dinner first. Not long ago,

Someone brought food to them, but after Tong Hanmi Shu saw the food on the table, she had no appetite at all.

"What is this?" Tong Han used chopsticks to rummage through a pile of dark vegetable leaves. "The people in Dujia Village don't take us seriously. It's just that the meal in the morning was a bit hasty. Why is there no oil or water at night?”

We can’t blame everyone for being unhappy. It’s really the food that’s so bad. After so many missions, the food this time is almost the worst. There’s not even a shred of meat to be seen. It’s fair to say that this is a poor village suffering from famine. , but there are clearly chickens and cows in the village.

Wu Ma Haoming, who had an empty face at first, leaned back in his chair and cursed in a low voice, saying that the people in Dujia Village were too stingy. This was a life-threatening job, and it might be their last meal. Even this little food. You have to save money, you deserve to be haunted by ghosts.

Sui Chengguo raised his eyebrows and cursed at Wu Ma Haoming: "Damn it, can you speak? This is your last meal!"

No one tried to persuade them. After all, everyone wanted to be lucky. To survive in the nightmare world, skills and means were important, and a little bit of luck was indispensable.

"Eat something. It's better than being hungry." Yang Xiao brought a plate of porridge that he could barely swallow and handed it to Tong Han and Mi Shu.

The people sitting around the table were worried and had their own thoughts, but Hu Yanming, who was sitting alone in the corner, quietly raised his hand, "I... I have something to say."

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Hu Yanming was obviously a little nervous. He swallowed his saliva and looked at Tong Han and Mi Shu, "The people of the Du family said that the crowing of the cock is the morning and the crowing of the cow is the evening. Is that right?"

"That's right." Tong Han nodded.

"It shouldn't be. When I was a child, my family raised cows. Cows are very patient and rarely call. Even if they call, it should be in the morning, in the early morning... at 4 or 5 o'clock in the morning, because they are hungry and want to eat." Hu Yanming explained.

"Only call in the morning?" Cheng Cha obviously didn't understand this very well.

"No, I can't say for sure. From my experience, apart from the estrus period, there are generally two reasons why cows make noises. First, they are hungry, and second...::

Yang Xiao hates people who keep things in suspense, "Second what?"

"Because they are frightened." Hu Yanming said.
