Rivals don't play cards according to routine

Chapter 103: Traveling to the Folk

Ye Hanqi and Xiao Junyue didn't plan a route for this trip.They walked aimlessly along the way, stopping and going.Occasionally ask if there are any strange things happening near the town, and if so, go and have a look.

Their style of acting is free and easy, and they soon left a lot of fame among the people.Cause them to go to the next place, as long as this place is well-informed, they will recognize them.Soon the people who came to them for work were not limited to ordinary people, and some monks also began to come to them.Xiao Junyue and Xiao Junyue did not refuse anyone who came, and they were not afraid of trouble. The right was to practice.

"This house was originally the residence of our second master. Since our second master's sudden death a few months ago, strange things have happened one after another."

The attendants who bowed to lead the way bypassed many rockeries, the scenery in front of them suddenly opened up, and what Xiao Junyue saw was a magnificent house.The scenery in the house changes every ten steps, and the colorful flowers are tightly clustered, which dazzles the beholders.Xiao Junyue thought it was hurting his eyes, so he took a rough look at the house and stopped looking around, and couldn't help doubting the taste of this so-called second master.

The attendant felt sorry, and could see from his words that he respected the second master very much.Ye Hanqi listened patiently to him about the strange things that happened here, but Xiao Junyue was absent-minded.Such incidents, he and Ye Hanqi dealt with no less than ten cases along the way, and each time it was groundless.

The reason for agreeing this time was also because the Zhu family who entrusted them had great prestige here, they followed the Romans and did not want to cause trouble for themselves.

"In the beginning, it was the parrot raised by our second master. The servant found it dead in the cage, and its tongue disappeared, which caused quite a panic. The elder blamed the servants for making a fuss, saying that the parrot valued love and affection, so follow our second master. Leave. After a few days of peace, a pair of maids who took care of the second master died naked on the bed, with no external injuries on their bodies, except that the tongue in their mouths also disappeared."

When the attendant mentioned these strange things, even though he was determined, he couldn't help shivering.Once they can say it was a coincidence, twice they can say it was a coincidence, but three times, four times, they have to panic.

After the servant girl, several people died one after another. For the safety of the house, the elder had no choice but to have the house sealed up.So now the house still retains its original appearance. The attendants led them all the way, and the ground is covered with a lot of dust, and it is easy to leave footprints when they step on it.Some places were densely covered with spider webs, and when Xiao Junyue looked up, a long-legged spider was spinning silk enthusiastically to bind the prey it had caught in the web.

Ye Hanqi wanted to take a look at the place where the second master died suddenly, but the attendants hesitated for a moment before taking them there.

Xiao Junyue thought that the house in front was enough to hurt his eyes, but when he entered the Second Master's residence, he realized that there were even more eyes-hurting arrangements.

"The second master of your family belongs to the dragon, right? The colorful stones in this room don't bother your eyes." Xiao Junyue looked at the gemstones thrown everywhere in the room with disgust, which are very common in the cultivation world. It is a kind of stone with full color and luster, which can be used as accessories, and is usually resold to merchants and dignitaries in the world.

It was the first time for Xiao Junyue to see someone pile up unpolished rough stones in the house. These things have a very good gloss. If there is light outside in the middle of the night, the room where the pile of stones are piled up must be brightly lit, just like daytime.

The attendant didn't enter the house, he stared at the things in the house stiffly, his scalp was numb and said: "This... when we closed the house, we didn't see these things."

Now it was Xiao Junyue's turn to be surprised, he was already standing in the room, the sun was shining brightly outside, but the room was facing the sun but could not feel any warmth, instead it felt cool.

"There are people living here." Ye Hanxi looked at the layout of the house, and wiped his fingers on the clean table without any dust.Compared with the dusty and rotting yard outside, this room is too clean.The tables and chairs were arranged neatly, and even the bedding on the bed was neatly folded, as if someone had just left after cleaning.

Ye Hanqi's words made the attendant break out in a cold sweat on a scorching hot day. He looked at the room in fear, and the two trembled.The calmness at the beginning has already disappeared. If there are not two big living people in front of him, he must be scared to death.

After getting mixed up in seven or eight ordinary people's trivial matters, Xiao Junyue finally came across a decent and strange incident. Xiao Junyue was immediately refreshed, bypassed the erected screen, and went to the inner room at the back to check.

Ye Hanqi glanced at the terrified attendant, knowing that he couldn't bring any more useful news, he mercifully said: "It's none of your business here, you go back first, we're looking."

The attendant was ordered, and he was not polite, turned around and ran away.

Ye Hanqi shook his head, went into the inner room to find Xiao Junyue.

Xiao Junyue just stood behind the screen and did not go far. As soon as Ye Hanqi came in, he pulled him into his arms and couldn't wait to exchange a long-breathing kiss with him. open.Ye Hanqi pushed his chest and said, "What are you crazy about?"

"I couldn't help it when I saw the seriousness of my senior brother. Fortunately, that kid is smart." Xiao Junyue stretched his hand into Ye Hanqi's skirt with a smirk, and Ye Hanqi grabbed it, and Ye Hanqi gave him a reproachful look. , withdrew his hand and turned to look at the layout of the inner room.

The outer chamber is full of precious stones, but the inner chamber is very simple.The bed is placed in the outer room, and the inner room is a simple study.A piece of rice paper was spread on the desk, the ink on it was still wet, and the just used wolf hair rested on the inkstone, it seemed that the owner left in a hurry and didn't have time to clean it and return it to its place.

Xiao Junyue was still looking around, but Ye Hanqi had already walked to the desk to look at the paintings on the rice paper.It was a painting, a few simple strokes outlined two people standing under the peach blossom tree, one holding an umbrella to cover the other from the rain of flowers.Both of them are handsome young men. I don't know if the painter didn't grasp the strength well or the person in the painting has problems. Ye Hanqi only thinks that the person holding the umbrella has an evil face and dark pupils.

Xiao Junyue wandered around and found nothing of value. Seeing Ye Hanqi standing still on the desk, he came over curiously and glanced at him, "Could the person in this painting be the second master of this family?" Bar?"

Ye Hanqi shook his head. Just as he was about to roll up the scroll and take it out to ask Master Zhu, Xiao Junyue held his hand.

"No." Xiao Junyue glanced at the painting in front of him again, and his finger landed on the umbrella holder's clothes: "There is something wrong with the clothes worn by the person in this painting."

Ye Hanqi didn't know, so he didn't notice that there was something wrong with the clothes, but the evil spirit of this person's painting was real.

"Brother may not be aware that when folks make mourning clothes, they will make the clothes into a left lapel, indicating the difference between yin and yang."

The clothes of the person in the painting are obviously left lapel, so it is impossible for the person in the painting to be careless.It is very likely that the person was dead when he drew it, and he made minor changes to the clothes only when he knew it in his heart.

"If this person is really Zhu Erye, this matter will be interesting." Xiao Junyue moved his hand away, becoming interested.

The second master of the Zhu family, who was extremely expensive, suddenly died suddenly, and then the Zhu family died one after another.And the dead people all have one thing in common, no tongue.People can speak only when they have a tongue, and cutting off people's tongues when they kill people means that people can't complain of injustice even after they die.If these are just revenge by others, then Zhu Erye's room is full of stones, someone cleaned it, and there is Zhu Erye's painting on the desk, which is intriguing.

What's more, this Danqing is not a single person, but a double person.

"We need to go back to Zhu's house and ask Second Master Zhu's cause of death again." Ye Hanqi finally took the scroll and took it away. Master Zhu was white and fat, and he didn't look like the two brothers in the painting.

"I think there's something wrong with the Zhu family. They probably won't tell us the truth. Senior brother asks them, why don't I go to the town and ask about it." Xiao Junyue held Ye Hanqi back and didn't let him go to Zhu Instead, take him for a stroll around town.

When the Zhu family approached them before, they spoke vaguely. When Master Zhu mentioned his brother who had passed away, although he had a sad expression on his face, deep fear was hidden in his eyes.The matter of the old house is indeed scary, but it should not be to the point where the head of the Zhu family can panic, unless there is something tricky about it.

"You mean the second master of the Zhu family? He was a romantic and unrestrained character, but unfortunately he died suddenly at a young age."

In the tavern on Linjiang, Xiao Junyue ordered a pot of wine and a plate of side dishes, and sat chatting with Ye Hanqi in the private room on the second floor.The waiter who came to serve the food heard them talking about the Zhu family, and answered a few sentences with a broken mouth.

Xiao Junyue knew that there were people coming and going in places like taverns, and his eyes and eyes were better than others, so he took out a piece of broken silver and gave it to the waiter, asking him to talk more.

The waiter in the shop took the money, and said all the things he knew with a smile.

This Zhu Erye is also considered a celebrity here, he is handsome, gentle, and a kind person who is willing to do good.The people in the city had a good impression of him, and anyone could chat with him, but since a year ago, Second Master Zhu didn't go out much.

"I remember that year because Zhu Erye rescued a young man from a human trafficker, and he took the young man with him to teach him, so he showed up less often outside." The waiter carefully recalled: "Later, I heard that Master Zhu and this young man got on good terms, but Master Zhu was not happy and argued with his younger brother. The young man left our town overnight in order not to embarrass Master Zhu. After Master Zhu found out, he went out to look for it by himself. After a few days and nights, he came back seriously ill, and died suddenly not long after."

The waiter put the rag on his shoulders with some regret, and said, "Actually, to be honest, this Second Master Zhu and that boy are also very suitable, but I don't know why Master Zhu disagrees."

"What happened to that young man?" Xiao Junyue asked curiously.

"I haven't seen it before." The waiter shook his head, that's all he knew, and he was about to leave after telling everything.It's just that he came back half way, and said with a teasing smile: "You may not believe it, but his parrot was responsible for Erye Zhu's matter. It is said that it was the voice of Erye Zhu and that young man doing things. I was learned by the parrot, and when the bird was fed the next day, the parrot learned everything."

Xiao Junyue's expression froze, he and Ye Hanqi looked at each other, and they both thought of one thing in their hearts.

Both the parrot and the servants had their tongues pulled out. Is it related to Zhu Erye's death?
