Daily life in Kaifeng dormitory

Ni Yexin turned his back to Murong Changqing, and Xu Ershao put his head on his shoulder again, so he couldn't see Xu Ershao's expression at all, and of course he couldn't see Murong Changqing's gloomy expression, he just felt that the weather It's getting colder...

At this time, Ding Sa suddenly said: "Okay."

Xu Ershao slipped out of Ni Ye's arms with a "whoosh", and ran to Ding Sa's side in a hurry.

Ni Yexin was also surprised for a while, did it get better so soon?

He was about to run over, but Murong Changqing grabbed his wrist.

Ni Yexin said: "Hero, hero, Ding Thirty has finished digging, let's go over and have a look."

"It's a lie." Murong said affectionately.

Ni Ye was stunned for a moment, unable to react in his head. Looking over at a glance, there was indeed only a little soil on Ding Sa's side, and it was impossible to dig out the coffin with such a thin layer, and it took too little time.

It really is a lie...

Over there, Xu Ershao ran over and found that Ding Sa hadn't dug well at all, only a few shovels.

When Xu Ershao found out that he had been cheated, he was so angry that he immediately exploded. He kicked and hit Ding Sao, seemingly out of order.

Ding Sa quickly left the shovel behind, hugged Xu Ershao, and pressed him tightly in his arms, ignoring his kicks.

Xu Ershao's hands were immobilized, so he couldn't raise his hand to hit him, so he could only kick him with his feet, turning to Ding Sa's face, and kicking there was very painful.

But Ding Sa did not complain of pain at all, as if he was unconscious.Xu Ershao was so angry that he opened his mouth and took a big bite on the side of Ding Sa's neck, bleeding from the bite, the smell of blood in his mouth.

Ding Sa said: "Master, I did lie to you, but I really did not betray you, please believe me."

"I don't believe it! You are a liar! Bad guy!" Xu Ershao finally let go and yelled.

Ding Sa said: "Young master, don't dig any more. Let me tell you...the tomb is indeed empty. There is a coffin inside, but it is empty, and there is nothing there."

Xu Ershao was taken aback for a moment, he stopped beating and biting, and was completely stunned.

But soon, Xu Ershao yelled again, saying: "I don't believe it, I don't believe you, I will dig it out, I will dig it out, if you don't help me, I will do it myself."

"Master! Calm down." Ding Sa said.

Xu Ershao was determined to dig it out, but he couldn't believe Ding Sao, he had to see if his mother was buried here.

Ding Sa had no choice but to let him go, picked up the shovel and continued digging.

The coffin was not buried shallowly, and it would take some time to dig the grave.

Ni Yexin stood by the side at first, but soon his legs straightened, and he sat under a big tree. After sitting for a while, although he felt quite cold, he felt very sleepy, and his eyes began to blur. Those who don't obey are going to close.

It was already late at night, and Ni Yexin had been a little sleepy for a long time. She was leaning against the tree drowsily, her head was a little dizzy.

Murong Changqing saw that Ni Ye's heart was silent, and when he turned his head to look, he couldn't help but the corners of his mouth curled up, and the man fell asleep.

Murong Changqing simply walked over and sat down beside Ni Yexin.

Perhaps because he felt the heat source, Ni Yexin leaned to the side, and then he couldn't hold on anymore, tilted his head, leaned on Murong Changqing's shoulder, and fell asleep.

Murong Chang gave him a sideways glance. Looking at it from this angle, it seemed that Ni Yexin's chin was particularly sharp, and the outline in the dark night was hazy and soft.

Murong looked at it affectionately, his eyes fell on Ni Yexin's lips unconsciously, and recalled the tactile sensation that night, he wanted to reach out to touch it, but he held back and didn't move.

Murong Changqing's eyes flickered, and he saw that the clothes on Ni Yexin's shoulders were wet, and the color was relatively heavy. It was caused by Xu Ershao's snot and tears on Ni Yexin just now, which was particularly annoying.

Murong Chang turned his gaze away in disgust, but held back and did not wake Ni Yexin up, letting him fall asleep on his shoulder.

Ni Yexin fell into a drowsy sleep, feeling quite warm, as if a stream of heat flowed up from his palm, directed at his body, limbs and bones, and he wanted to sigh softly because of the comfort.

Ni Yexin didn't know that when he was asleep, Murong Changqing quietly held his hand and sent him a wave of inner strength, otherwise he would definitely catch a cold if he was still sleeping in the wilderness in this cold weather .

"Bang" sound.

Ni Yexin was startled awake when she was still dreaming. She opened her eyes, unable to adapt to the dark light for a while, and waited for a few seconds before seeing that Ding Sa had already dug out the coffin.

Murong Changqing was no longer by his side now, Ding Sa and Murong Changqing stood in the pit and lifted a wooden coffin up.

The coffin was very heavy, and there was a "clang" sound, which stirred up a lot of dust on the ground.

Xu Ershao couldn't wait to run to the side of the coffin. Ni Yexin took a look, stood up quickly, and ran over.

The coffin has been lifted out and exposed to their eyes, because it has been buried in the soil for a long time, and it looks mottled and mottled.

The coffin has already been sealed, and it should have never been opened by anyone, and there is no trace of prying it open.

Xu Ershao reached out to touch the coffin, with a dazed expression on his face, and quickly said, "How do we open this? Let's open it, quickly!"

Ding Sa glanced at Xu Ershao, and seemed to be hesitant, but he didn't say anything.

Murong Changqing raised his hand, and there was a dagger in his palm.Ni Yexin knew it, it was a snake pattern dagger, left behind by Murong Changqing's master after his death.

The snake pattern dagger cuts iron like mud, and is extremely strong, it is no problem to pry the seal with force.Soon Murong Changqing opened all the seals of the coffin.

Xu Ershao stood beside him, he couldn't help, but he was very nervous at the moment, his hands were so cold that he seemed to have lost consciousness.

All the seals were pried open, and Murong Changqing pushed the coffin lid vigorously, and there was a sound of "Boom—" and the heavy coffin lid was pushed open, revealing the entire space inside the coffin.

"empty……"

Xu Ershao was stunned, and murmured, "It's empty...it's really... empty..."

This seemed to have been expected by him, but it was really hard for him to accept it.

He worshiped his mother for so many years, and it turned out to be an empty tomb. So where is his mother? After so many years, more than ten years have passed, his mother is alone, and she doesn't know where she is buried. People go to sacrifice.

Xu Ershao's body swayed and he almost fell to his knees.

Ding Thirty snatched it up one step at a time, stretched out his arms and hugged Xu Ershao, and said, "Young Master? Young Master?"

Xu Ershao was in a trance, he didn't break away from Ding Sao, but just looked at the empty grave.

Seeing Xu Ershao's appearance, Ding Sa couldn't bear it, so he stretched out his hand and gently pinched the back of Xu Ershao's neck.

Xu Ershao let out a "huh" in his throat, and then suddenly passed out, closing his eyes, as if falling asleep.

Ni Yexin was taken aback, and said, "What are you doing?"

Ding Sa said: "Let the young master sleep for a while, I'm afraid he will collapse if he continues like this."

Murong Chang looked at the empty coffin affectionately, and said, "Bury the coffin first, and then take him back to the city."

Ding Thirty nodded, and said, "Master Ni, please help me take care of the young master. I will bury the coffin."

Just as Ni Yexin was about to nod, Murong Changqing stopped him.

Ni Yexin looked back at him suspiciously, and said, "What's wrong, Hero Murong?"

Ding Sa wanted to hand over Xu Ershao to Ni Yexin, but Murong Changqing didn't want Ni Yexin to hug Xu Ershao at all, so of course he stopped him.

Ding Sayi saw that he had no choice but to take off his clothes, put them on the ground, let Xu Ershao lie on his clothes, and then went to carry the coffin back and rebury it with soil.

Although an empty coffin is meaningless whether it is buried or not.However, if someone passed by and suddenly saw an empty coffin in the cemetery, they might think it was a fake corpse, so they buried the coffin anyway.

After everyone finished the coffin, Ding Sa picked up Xu Ershao and followed Ni Yexin and Murong Changqing back to the city.

Ding Sa didn't take Xu Ershao to Xu's house, he knew that after the young master woke up and saw that he was back at Xu's house, he must be crying again, so he simply took Xu Ershao to the inn where Ni Yexin and the others stayed, Asked for an upper room and settled Xu Ershao in it.

After Ding San settled down with Xu Ershao, he looked back at Ni Yexin and Murong Changqing.

Murong Changqing crossed his arms, looked at him coldly, and said, "You don't have anything to say?"

Ding Sa sighed, and said: "I have kept it a secret for so many years, but I just don't want the young master to know. I know the young master's temper, and he will definitely not be able to bear it if he finds out."

Ding Sa had known for a long time that Xu Ershao's mother's coffin was empty, but he didn't say it. He had thought about it, maybe it would be better to let Xu Ershao never know, so that Xu Ershao would not be hurt, but he didn't. think……

Ni Yexin said: "Fire cannot be contained in paper, do you want him to worship an empty tomb for the rest of his life?"

Ding Sa said: "I've thought about it, but telling him it won't help at all, the young master can't do anything, and it will bring him death."

"So, what are you going to do?" Ni Yexin asked.

Ding Sa suddenly smiled, and said: "Master Ni is right, I am indeed wrong a lot. There are many things that the young master cannot do, but there are many things that I can do."

When Ding Sa smiled like that, Ni Ye felt chills all over his body instantly, and only then remembered that Ding Sa was a killer before.

Ni Yexin's eyes widened, and he said, "You couldn't have killed the widow Mrs. Zhu? But...it's not right..."

Ding Sa said: "Of course I didn't kill him. I have retired for many years, and I haven't seen blood for many years. The young master is still a child, he can't see blood. As I said, I don't want him to be afraid of me."

Ni Yexin frowned. Although Ding Sa said so, he felt that there was something in Ding Sa's words, so he couldn't help but said, "Kill someone with a knife?"

Ding Thirty looked at Ni Yexin in surprise, but did not deny it.

Ding Thirty was rescued by Xu Ershao when he failed in the mission and was hunted down. Xu Ershao was too innocent to know how he got his injuries, and thought that he slipped and fell off the cliff.

In the first half of Ding Sa's life, he had never seen such a simple person.He originally wanted to leave when he was healthy, not because he didn't know how to repay him, but because he didn't want to trouble Xu Ershao.

But after Ding Sa recovered from his injury, he didn't leave because he found that there were too many people with ulterior motives around Xu Ershao, and Xu Ershao didn't care about anything and didn't understand anything.

Ding Sa said, "I knew that secret by accident."

Ni Yexin said: "The secret that Xu Ershao's mother's coffin is empty?"

Ding Thirty nodded.

This is a secret, but many people know this secret. Ding Sa said: "The masters of the Xu family all know it, even Xu Ershao's father knows it. They all know it very well."

Ni Yexin showed a surprised expression, Xu Laoer also knew?Isn't Wan Shi the wife of Xu Lao Er?Xu Laoer knew that someone killed his wife, but Xu Laoer didn't say anything?

Murong Changqing frowned and said, "What's going on?"

Ding Sa said: "I overheard this incident, and it took me a long time to find out what happened."

That happened many years ago. That Wan family is a young and beautiful girl. Although she is not a lady from a rich family, she is first-class in appearance and talent. She married into the Xu family and became the second wife of the Xu family. How much is this? Women can't even envy them.

Wan's soon gave birth to a boy, Xu Ershao.But Wan Shi did not die in childbirth. She was healthy after giving birth, and her child was also healthy. Everything seemed peaceful and perfect.

But not long after, Wan Shi died, smothered to death in the coffin.

Ding Sa said: "The Xu family has a lot of secrets. The Xu family has a big business. They have a lot of business, and they also do some shady business. The widow Zhu's husband used to be an official. I don't know if you know, that person and The Xu family has a close relationship."

Ni Yexin showed an expression of sudden realization. It turns out that the relationship between the widow Zhu and the Xu family is based on the husband of the widow Zhu.

Ding Sa said: "The husband of the widow Zhu's family bought an official job, and then colluded with the Xu family to help clear the way, open the door for the Xu family, and let the Xu family do some shady business everywhere."

"It turned out to be like this..." Ni Yexin murmured.

He suddenly remembered the letter left by the mysterious man. It was a letter written by a businessman surnamed Xu to an official lord. Now that he thought about it, it was probably written by the Xu family to the widow Zhu's husband.

"But that's all." Ding Sa smiled and said, "Not only that, but gradually, they got a bigger vote. You have also seen the snake pattern."

Murong Changqing frowned and said, "Snake pattern totem?"

Ding San glanced at Murong Changqing and said, "Master Murong definitely knows this snake pattern totem, because this snake pattern totem was originally from your religion, it is a symbol of your religion, but it is different from the current snake pattern totem. You have also discovered that the current snake totem has dragon horns and dragon claws. It is no longer a simple snake, but an evolved dragon. The meaning of this is probably self-evident. The organization of this snake totem is planning to rebel , attracted many officials, and many businessmen from all over the world."

Ding Sa was a killer in the past, and he took on many missions, but only one mission about the snake totem.The employer was related to the snake pattern totem and asked them to kill a member of the court, but Ding Sa failed.

Ding Sa said, "I failed in that mission and had to escape."

Murong Chang said affectionately: "Who are they asking you to kill?"

Ding Thirty said lightly, "Respect King Zhao Yuanjing."

"Respect the lord?" Ni Ye was taken aback.

King Jing was surrounded by experts, and Ding Sao failed in his mission and had to leave.He remembered the snake pattern totem, and later found the same snake pattern totem in the Xu family.

The Xu family is actually working for that organization. They help that organization earn money, get a lot of benefits from it, and thus become more and more prosperous.

Ding Sa said: "The Wan family discovered this secret by accident, and discovered that they actually had the intention of rebelling."

Ni Yexin glanced at Ding San, and said, "The Wan family was murdered...?"

Ding Thirty nodded.

In Ni Yexin's mind, the widow Zhu's husband was related to the organization that wanted to rebel. Later, the man died, leaving only the widow Zhu, and then suddenly a letter was written to the widow Zhu, asking her to kill him. Wan's silence.

This meaning is actually self-evident. The person who wrote the letter can actually do it himself, but there is only one reason for letting the widow Zhu kill someone. That person wants to hold the widow Zhu's handle so that the widow Zhu You can't jump ship and become a grasshopper on the same line as them.

Ni Yexin said hesitantly: "So...the widow Zhu's son died, and she wanted to marry Shang for her son. It was all fake? The girl married to Shang was really Xu Ershao's mother? Is it Xu Ershao's wife Wan Shi? "

Ding Thirty nodded, and said with a sneer, "Master Ni is right, that's what happened. Marriage is just an excuse to kill someone."

"Then Xu's second child..." Ni Yexin couldn't believe it.

Ding Sa said: "Of course he knew. All the brothers in that family knew. They didn't stop anyone. They even helped the widow Zhu to deceive Wan. The widow Zhu caught Wan and had her tied up." Woke up, put on wedding clothes, stuffed into a coffin and suffocated to death, then took it to the outskirts with gongs and drums, and found a place to bury it."

Ni Yexin's hairs stood on end, she didn't know what to say anymore.

No wonder the Xu family has been in charge for so many years. After the death of the eldest brother Xu, he became the second head of the family.It turned out that they were all held accountable by Xu Laoer. Xu Laoer must have threatened them with what happened back then, and they dared not speak out at all.

Ni Yexin asked: "Where are the bones of the Wan family?"

Ding Sa shook his head and said, "I haven't found it yet."

"Then what did you do?" Ni Yexin asked.

Ding Sa just said indifferently: "Master Ni has already said, it's all about killing with a knife."
