Infinitely, I Have a Lady in Red
Chapter 122 Game 8
Asking Li Hongying to bring a chicken from a random family, Luo Mingjie tied the chicken and carried it as a door-to-door gift.
Wen Xianren's mansion is very obvious in the ancient town.It is one thing to occupy a large area, and the big backyard is actually full of locust trees.The locust tree grows tall and can be seen from outside, Jiang Xiaoli roughly counted, no more, no less, eight locust trees.They'd like to see what else is growing in the backyard if they get a chance.
There were no tall trees planted in the front yard, at least they didn't see them outside.Luo Mingjie carried the struggling old hen and knocked on the door politely. ——The door was slowly opened.
Luo Mingjie was stunned for a moment, and saw the middle-aged Taoist priest in gray robes watering the flowers and plants in the front yard. He had planted a lot of flowers in the front yard, but it might not be the season for flowering, so none of the flowers bloomed. "Wen Xianren." Luo Mingjie saluted politely, untied the old hen from the rope, and put it in the front yard.
"Is He Sheng right? Don't be cautious. I have a poor way to see your face, and I am a blessed person. Although there were many ups and downs in the past, but there are noble people in my destiny to help, in the future I can turn the danger into a breeze and everything will be smooth sailing." Wen Xianren threw the ladle into the water In the tank, looked at Luo Mingjie and smiled.He shifted his gaze to the two behind Luo Mingjie - Jiang Xiaoli and Wei Qianrong.
Jiang Xiaoli was afraid that this person would see what Li Hongying was up to, so he didn't ask Li Hongying to appear.Only let her go back to the heart and hide her breath.
Wen Xianren's eyes moved slightly, and he didn't say anything, but just looked at Luo Mingjie quietly: "I don't know what is the purpose of your visit today?"
"Wen Xianren, I was traveling abroad, and I was fortunate enough to have a famous teacher, and I also learned some ghost-hunting skills. I heard that the ancient town was cursed. Although I just returned yesterday, I still want to do my best." Luo Mingjie bowed solemnly, "Also Please, Immortal Wen, tell me the details."
"...That's why, you come with me." It's not polite to let guests stand in the front yard.Immortal Wen invited the three of them in sideways.
In such a big house, only Wen Xianren lives in it.Luo Mingjie and the others followed to the hall, and Wen Xianren talked about the origin of this ancient town.What he said was exactly the same as what the aunt said. Wei Qianrong and Jiang Xiaoli looked at each other, and they made excuses to go to the toilet. Wen Xianren pointed in the direction, and they left the hall.
Luo Mingjie understood that the two probably went to search the house. He didn't know if this Immortal Wen had supernatural powers to perceive it. Anyway, he still looked serious, listening to Immortal Wen's narration carefully, and asking a few questions along the lines from time to time.
The backyard was cleaned very clean, and the eight locust trees were also carefully planted, planted in eight directions in the backyard, which seemed a bit nondescript.There were no weeds in the backyard. At most, there were tools such as shovels placed by the wall, and a rope was tied between two locust trees, with bacon and sausages hanging from it. ...But there are no strange traces, not to mention blood stains.
As for the other rooms, this house is big, most of the rooms are empty, and the furnishings are very simple.They split up and turned around, but didn't find anything unusual for a while.Wei Qianrong even took out the compass to check carefully, but the compass also showed that there was nothing abnormal here.Until leaving Wen Xianren's house, Wei Qianrong still frowned: "It shouldn't be, isn't Wen Xianren..."
"Those eight pagoda trees look weird, and the house is located in the northwest." Jiang Xiaoli glanced back at the house, "And his place is very gloomy, and the whole house has a cold and shady air , it must be because of the location and the locust tree."
"Other than that, there are no other details... so many daughters died, where are the corpses? There is no smell of blood in his house, and the compass has no effect." Wei Qianrong said calmly, "Maybe we should visit the town Mayor? Luo Mingjie, what have you discovered?" This town seems to have a mayor, but they don't know which family it is for the time being. ... There are only a few luxury houses in this town, and it's not hard to find them.
"No, what he said is not different from what Aunt Ma said. And he has a gentle attitude... But the house is indeed uncomfortable, probably because of the Fengshui layout?"
"Fengshui?" Wei Qianrong was stunned for a moment. She recalled the location where the pagoda tree was planted, and couldn't help guessing: "The backyard... there shouldn't be a formation, right?" But the knowledge of formations and the understanding of formations... What Wei Qianrong knows is only superficial, and what she understands is only simple spirit-gathering formations and the like.After all, the game didn't give her such information as the Encyclopedia of Formation, all she knew so far was some knowledge about the introduction to Formation given to her by her master.
Since it was a beginner, it was naturally impossible for her to tell at a glance whether it was a formation or what it was.It's just a possibility. "But it's impossible to only have eight pagoda trees. The formation requires energy to operate, and there are no strange stones there." Wei Qianrong thought, if he had the chance again, he must go to the backyard to search carefully.
They went back to He Sheng's house for the time being.Although no one lived in the house for a long time, Aunt Ma cleaned it often, and there were vegetables and leaves to eat in the yard.They stayed here temporarily, and Aunt Ma also donated some food so that they could cook.
After dinner, Jiang Xiaoli began to think about visiting the mayor.This visit to the mayor... There is no reason for Mao to go up rashly, but it is abrupt.She glanced at Wei Qianrong, and Wei Qianrong didn't seem to have any good ideas.While struggling, Li Hongying said:
"Yang Yun and I will go first at night, and knock everyone into a coma. Come to the mayor's house together to see if there are any clues?"
Well, while it's a bit disgraceful, it seems to work.The main mayor's house is not a fairy's house, so it shouldn't be found abnormal? "If you and Yang Yun are found to be abnormal, run quickly and don't do anything. If those are ordinary people who don't notice the abnormality, we will go immediately."
"Yes." Li Hongying nodded in agreement.
So on the second night when they came to the ancient town, Li Hongying and Yang Yun touched the mayor's house. After sensing that there seemed to be ordinary people here, the two ghosts restrained their yin energy and acted secretly, taking the mayor, the mayor's wife and children, The old mother and servants were all knocked out, leaving no one behind.Then Li Hongying brought Jiang Xiaoli, Wei Qianrong and Luo Mingjie to the mayor's house. They carefully turned the mayor's house upside down, even carefully inspected the trees in the backyard, and never let go of the water tank.Li Hongying also sensed what was under the ground, but she sensed the cellar—but the cellar was filled with fruits, vegetables, and wine, and there was nothing suspicious about it.The only thing that made Jiang Xiaoli vigilant was the blood stains by the well in the backyard, but Li Hongying saw that it was chicken blood.
Failed.
The furnishings in the room are all restored, trying not to reveal any flaws.However, everyone was dizzy that night, so they must still have doubts. Luo Mingjie simply twisted the necks of two old hens, plucked the feathers and skins in the mayor's backyard, and left a field of chicken feathers and internal organs for them. He took the two old hens with him. His body is gone.The things that came along didn't stay for long, they caught fire at night, Jiang Xiaoli and Wei Qianrong ate one together, Luo Mingjie had one each, and the three ate directly.Even the chicken bones after eating were packed and asked Li Hongying to throw them back to the mayor's backyard, leaving no trace of them themselves.
As for the mayor, when he got up, he felt a pain in his neck, and he couldn't remember what happened last night. Chicken's, um, wreckage?
—— "Which shameless chicken thief!!! After eating chicken, you still spit out the bones in my backyard?"
At that time, there were no such things as fingerprints and DNA. The mayor was so angry that he didn't let this matter go out. Without him, it was too embarrassing.He suffered a great loss, so he asked a carpenter to make a strong wooden cage for his chickens in the afternoon, locked the cage door with a big iron lock, and carried the key with him - he didn't believe that the thief dared to come !
After talking about it, Jiang Xiaoli had the idea of Wen Xianren again.Without him, there are many residents in the ancient town, but there are only a few who are distinctive and suspicious, and Wen Xianren is obviously the most suspicious.Luo Mingjie visited the richest businessman in this ancient town during the day, but since the ancient town was cursed, their family just sit and eat.This one behaved like nothing out of the ordinary.Wei Qianrong went to the street in disguise, secretly using the compass to find clues, but the compass still didn't respond.She suspects that her dog's compass is malfunctioning...or is Guzhen really a different world?Back then during the incident on the Yutai Highway, her compass was disturbed and turned around, but this time... it has become completely unresponsive.
It's just that before they could discuss anything, they learned that another girl from another family had disappeared.It was before dinner that she disappeared. At that time, the parents went to ask her to have dinner, and the girl agreed, but it took a long time to come, and when she went to see her again, she disappeared.It was Aunt Ma who came to tell Luo Mingjie about this matter. Aunt Ma always glanced at Luo Mingjie's room when she was talking, and was quite jealous of the three girls in Luo Mingjie's family.Luo Mingjie dragged Aunt Ma into the house on the spot, and repeatedly clarified that they had done nothing and were completely innocent.
"Hey, Auntie knows you are a good boy. It's just that our ancient town...is cursed..."
curse?Luo Mingjie didn't believe that the conspiracy the game asked them to find was a curse, if so, the game would have already reminded them to find the key clue.After thinking about it, Luo Mingjie asked which family had the accident, and asked about the missing girl's information, and went to visit with Jiang Xiaoli and the others.He said he wanted to see if he could get some clues.
After all, the character that Luo Mingjie set up for himself is capable of catching ghosts!He insisted that this strange disappearance was caused by ghosts, and he brought Jiang Xiaoli and the others to the door with a mahogany sword in hand.
There is still no trace of Yin Qi, and no trace of ghosts fighting.Even the furnishings in the boudoir have not changed, as if people really disappeared out of thin air.
Until, Wei Qianrong found a mass of... burnt ashes in the corner under the bed.The ash is different from ordinary dust, and it is also different from the traces left by burning paper. Wei Qianrong picked up a little bit and put it under the tip of the pen to smell it.She is familiar with this smell, and Jiang Xiaoli is no stranger to it.
Ashes of yellow paper.It's a talisman...
Wen Xianren's mansion is very obvious in the ancient town.It is one thing to occupy a large area, and the big backyard is actually full of locust trees.The locust tree grows tall and can be seen from outside, Jiang Xiaoli roughly counted, no more, no less, eight locust trees.They'd like to see what else is growing in the backyard if they get a chance.
