A few years later, the encounter between Du Rusong and Li Tong must be said to be a bad relationship.

More than ten years ago, Du Rusong, the son of Du's parents, was accidentally ambushed by a big monster while out hunting monsters. He was seriously injured and passed out on the side of the road.

When Du Rusong woke up again, he had lost all memory about the demon catcher.In desperation, Li Tong had no choice but to take him home. The two had been together for a year, and their love for each other was dark. When the Du family found Du Rusong, Li Tong was four months pregnant.

Du Rusong, who had recovered his memory, brought Li Tong back to Du's house. He probably really loved this woman and insisted on divorcing his beloved wife because of her, even ignoring his seven-year-old son.For this reason, Father Du, the patriarch of the Du family at that time, lost his temper several times and almost drove him out of the house.

The matter was finally settled, because Li Tong committed suicide a month later.

What mood Du Rusong was in when he witnessed her death, no one else knew, but after that, he, who was crazy about love for a while, became the dignified and polite son of Du's eldest son, Xue Shuya's good husband, and Du Hao'an's good father. --Until today.

"I remember that after Li Tong was brought back by my father, she hid in the room and didn't come out very often. My mother didn't even know her name at the time. I only heard about it by eavesdropping on the quarrel between my father and my grandfather."

Du Haoan said, "She only stayed at our house for a month, and then she just left."

In just one month, even the name was deliberately concealed.So when the name "Li Tong" reappeared more than ten years later, even Du He couldn't remember her.

Shen Qing said: "What about her body?"

"It seems that he was buried by Uncle Li. Speaking of which, it seems that he also came from our family that year. Is it from my mother's family? I can't remember..."

Du Haoan said, "What I remember most clearly is that after Li Tong's death, the child in her stomach also disappeared. This is what I heard when the servants were chatting, because this has been a nightmare for many days... Oh no, I have to run."

He muttered all the way and made Du Rusong in front of him turn his head several times, this time he walked directly towards him, scaring Du Haoan to run away.

It was nearly twelve noon when he came down from the mountain, Shen Qing rejected Du Rusong's invitation to invite him to lunch, and went back with Qin Mo.

In the villa, a hot hot pot was placed on the dining table.The fragrant red oil is rolled in the pot, and the mutton that has been rinsed is dipped in the delicious sauce. It is hot, smooth and tender, and it is extremely delicious.

While the hot aroma of the hot pot was transpiring, the black snake's pale skin was also stained a little rosy.He concentrated on picking up a chopstick of beef louver and dipped it in the spicy oil.

Qin Mo stared at the young man's lustrous lips, picked a shrimp for him, and filled a bowl of vegetable soup.

Shen Qing ate the shrimp and pushed the vegetable soup back.

"Don't like vegetables?"

Qin Mo picked up another chopstick of beef for him and said, "Then eat more meat, it's too thin."

"Well."

Shen Qing shared some of his mutton with him.

Lu Ge, who was smelling the hot pot next to him, flipped through the documents in his hand and said, "Li Tong, Li Furun, and Li Jianwei are distant relatives, but the two families rarely interact. When Li Tong rescued Du Rusong more than ten years ago, Li Furun happened to be there." Li Tong's family is a guest, and the two of them will get together later, and Li Furun's help should be indispensable."

"After Du Rusong returned to the Du family, Li Furun became the housekeeper of the Du family. He has a very good relationship with Li Jianwei's uncle and nephew. Over the years, he has used the resources in his hands to obtain a lot of benefits."

Shen Qing bit her chopsticks: "Where's Li Chengrui?" - Li Chengrui is the father of Cheng Jing's colleague, the deceased at yesterday's funeral.

"Although Li Chengrui is Li Jianwei's brother, they don't have much contact with each other. His car accident was an accident, and it has nothing to do with Li Furun and Li Jianwei's death."

Li Furun died in Du's house, and Li Jianwei died in the company's office—these are enclosed spaces, and just over ten years ago, their distant relative Li Tong also died in a seemingly airtight room.

"Tomorrow is Li Furun's funeral. The Li family doesn't seem to want to go to the Du family to ask for an explanation. Du Rusong probably stopped him."

Shen Qing said: "Then I will go to Du's house later."

Qin Mo said: "Don't go out and run around at night, little ink snake."

"I'll go in the afternoon."

Shen Qing said, "Du Rusong wants me to stay at Du's house but he doesn't do anything to me, it means he is afraid or waiting for something."

In the Du family, he did not perceive the existence of the magic circle, and the luck of the Du family was not exhausted like that of the Qin family, which meant that the problem lay with Du Rusong alone.

After finishing the hot pot meal, Shen Qing put down her chopsticks, said goodbye to Qin Mo, got up and left.

It's only one o'clock in the afternoon, Du Rusong and Xue Shuya went back to their room to rest just after lunch in the Du family, Du He went to the back mountain, and Du Haoan followed.

The servants have known Shen Qing for the past few days, and they thought he was coming back to rest, so they let him go upstairs without hesitation.

Shen Qing came to the room at the end of the third floor without hindrance. This room was originally Du Rusong's father's room, but it was inexplicably arranged as a mourning hall later.After Li Furun's death, no one came here.

The door was pushed open, and a portrait was placed in the center of the mourning hall.Shen Qing stepped over where Li Furun died, stared at the neither sad nor happy old man in the portrait for a few seconds, and looked away.

The white flag fluttered silently, and the room was very quiet, except for a low cry, there was no other sound.

Shen Qing: "..."

He listened intently, and indeed heard the woman's faint cry.

"Ugh..."

On the bed next to the wall, there was a figure of a woman in a white skirt at some point, her head was buried very low, her shoulders trembled slightly, leaving only a slender figure of Shen Qing's back.

Blood slid down her skirt little by little, spreading red patches on the floor.The woman touched the red with her bare feet, and slowly bent down.

"Wow--"

A baby's clear cry came from under her, a bloody thing crawled out from under the white skirt, its thin hands and feet supported its barely human-shaped body, it crawled all the way to the outside of the house, dragged out on the floor A bloodstain.

The crying faded away, and the bloodstains and the woman in the room disappeared.Shen Qing looked back at the portrait, the old man in the photo who was not sad or happy just now had his brows tightly furrowed, his expression full of sorrow.

Shen Qing didn't say anything, he didn't pay any attention to that side, and chased after the distant crying.

The cries twisted and turned, sometimes far and sometimes near, and finally disappeared in front of a room.

It is the master bedroom.

Shen Qing stopped in front of the door, frowning slightly.

There were footsteps on the other side of the stairs, and soon, Du Hao'an, whose head was still stained with grass leaves, turned from the corridor, and was taken aback when he saw Shen Qing: "Do you have anything to do with my parents?"

"No,"

Shen Qing withdrew her hand that was about to knock on the door, and said sideways, "I have a question for you."

"Okay, you can ask."

"Is the upstairs room your grandfather always lived in?"

Du Hao'an shook his head: "Not a few years ago. At that time, grandpa was the head of the house and lived in the master bedroom. Later, he gave the position of head of the house to my dad and moved upstairs by himself—what's wrong?"

Shen Qing said: "That room is the room where Li Tong lived."

Du Haoan was startled, apparently unaware.

"Go there and look for it, maybe you can find something."

Shen Qing said flatly, passing him by.

"Wait a moment,"

Du Haoan turned around, "Where are you going?"

"go to sleep."

"But your room is over there."

"I'm not sleeping with you anymore,"

Shen Qing said, "The Du family's bed is hard and cold, it's uncomfortable."

Du Hao'an: "?? Where is it? Everyone knows that you are afraid of the cold, okay? The bed we prepared for you is obviously the most comfortable bed—oh, I see, you must be looking for an excuse to go to Qin... ..."

Shen Qing glanced at him coolly.

Du Haoan: "..."

He said, "Goodbye, be careful on the road."

-

night.

There is a bathing pool in Qin Mo's villa. The huge pool is so hot that the black snake submerged itself in the hot water, and immediately didn't want to move its nest.

Temperature is the deadliest attraction for him in winter, and he feels that this place is... barely worth ten Qin Mos.

Shen Qing took a deep breath, and three thousand blue silks poured down like water, spreading a cloud of ink on the surface of the water.

The water flowed warmly across his body, and tiredness surged up along with the water vapor.Shen Qing lowered her long and slender eyelashes that were soaked in water, leaned against the pool wall and fell into a light sleep.

In a trance, he seemed to have traveled through thousands of years and came to the palace palace with the deepest memory.

The black silk and black robes were scattered, Shen Qing stepped barefoot on the cold stone steps, the majestic palace stretched in front of his eyes, red bricks and gold tiles, the sky was far away, the glazed red gold shone in the morning light with a cool luster, intertwined and fell into his black eyes eye.

Above the long steps, the emperor in the black dragon robe stood against the light, and his face was covered by twelve bars of white jade. Shen Qing could only see a pair of deep eyes in the distance. .

The high sky light hurt his eyes, and he raised his hand to cover his forehead.In the blurred vision, the emperor's robe sleeves fluttered, and he turned and left arrogantly and indifferently.

Shen Qing: "..."

Are you leaving me?

He opened his mouth, but what he said was silent.

[come over. ]

At this moment, someone whispered behind him.

[Little black snake, come to me. ]

In an instant, Shen Qing seemed to be stepping on the edge of the abyss again, the light and shadow fell on the edge of his ankles, the clothes and black silk intertwined, fluttering in the strong wind.

Above him is the bright sun and clear sky.Below is a dark abyss, bottomless.

The chill climbed up along the bare feet, like the cool and damp breath of a ghost.Shen Qing quietly looked down at the abyss below, then suddenly took a step forward and jumped down from the sky.

"Shen Qing."

Someone was calling his name, the abyss receded quickly, and the bright light wrapped him gently, Shen Qing opened his eyes.

wow-

He rose from the water, and the water droplets fell on the tips of his eyebrows, eyes and hair like scattered flowers, like a circle of crystal diamonds.

The hazy mist lingered, Shen Qing gasped for a moment, pulled the clothes by the pool and ran out directly.

On the big bed in the bedroom, Qin Mo put down his book, lifted the quilt and encircled a whole black snake in.

"what happened?"

Caressing the young man's thin back with his palm, Qin Mo frowned slightly, and wrapped his arms around Shen Qing's waist gently but forcefully, so that he could lean on him more comfortably.

"..."

Shen Qing lowered her head, hugged Qin Mo back very docilely, and let out a long sigh of relief after a while.

"I'm going to that funeral tomorrow."

He said, "Something might happen, can you wait for me outside?"

"Finally willing to let me accompany you?"

Qin Mo laughed, "Little Black Snake, you don't have to take care of everything by yourself."

The orange light on the bedside spread down softly, Qin Mo raised his hand to dim the light, and waited patiently for Shen Qing's second sentence.

He sat up and said in a low voice: "I killed a person many years ago, that person may have come back to look for me."

"do not be afraid,"

Qin Mo said, "Tell me who he is."

Shen Qing remained silent for a while, then said flatly: "A monster catcher named Song Xiao... I guess he might like me, probably."
