"What did you say?" The violence on the shop manager's face disappeared in an instant, and he became dazed and helpless, "The person he wants to marry is me? How is it possible? Doesn't he... want me to die? …”

Yu Sen felt that something went wrong: "Why do you think he killed you? Did he do it himself? Did you see it with your own eyes?"

The store manager was stunned for a few seconds by his question, staring blankly at the ground, muttering to himself: "He bought the one that murdered me...the murderer told me..."

Yu Sen and Si Xuanyang looked at each other for a second, sighed, and said slowly: "Last night we went to Li Mansion to eavesdrop on the conversation between Mr. Li and... that girl Zhao Yue. We think, Mr. Li really wanted to marry you, and he did it, didn’t he? Look at you, since you love him, why did you ask Zhao Yue to marry him for you? You asked Zhao Yue to replace him Bar?"

"It's me..." She looked bewildered, "At that time, I was traveling in the south of the Yangtze River, and when I saw him from the boat, I made a decision at the first sight. I said I must marry this person in the future, but I I didn't know his identity, and I didn't have time to investigate. Later, something happened at home, and I hurried back to Huai'an City, only to learn that Li Xiao, the newly-promoted No. ...."

Yu Sen lowered his eyes: "You don't know that Li Xiao is the person who made you fall in love at first sight in Jiangnan, so you don't want to marry."

He saw the nameplate pinned to the store manager's chest slowly showing his name—Song Ningxiu.

"Yes," there was a circle of gray-black gas around her body, making her look gloomy and terrifying, but the expression on her face was bitter and sad, "The only way I can think of is to escape."

Song Ningxiu smiled bitterly: "Zhao Yue is my maid. She has always wanted to marry into a wealthy family. I am also worried that escaping marriage will implicate the parents at home. I think that the big wedding will cover the red hijab, and I usually raise it in my boudoir. People, probably won't be seen, even if they are discovered by parents later and learned the truth, but for the safety of the Song family, they will not expose it, so..."

"So Zhao Yue married Li Xiao, and you ran away. Then when did you know Li Xiao's identity?" Yu Sen asked.

"On the day of the big wedding," recalling the past, the blackness around her became more and more intense, "I saw the portrait of Zhuangyuan Lang, and I was ecstatic, and even wondered if he fell in love with me even in Jiangnan. Knowing my identity from the Jiangnan Salt Factory, I will propose marriage to the Song Mansion as soon as I return to Huai'an City."

"Where were you at that time?" Yu Sen asked softly.

"I'm already outside the city, but I haven't gone far," Song Ningxiu said, "I'm so happy, I want to go back immediately, but... I was stopped by a man in black before I entered the city. He cut his throat, and before he cut his throat, he told me that it was Li Xiao, and he didn't want me to go back, and he didn't want me to take back Zhao Yue's identity as the daughter of a salt merchant!"

Yu Sen was speechless: "So for hundreds of thousands of years, you thought that Li Xiao paid to kill you in order to be with Zhao Yue?"

As for?How did this young lady's brain grow?Just torturing each other for so many years?

Song Ningxiu lowered her head: "I misunderstood him. When I woke up in the wilderness, because of my grievances, I had already turned into a grieving ghost. Later, Li Xiao's father committed a crime, and Li's house was ransacked. I stole their heads one by one and sealed them with tricks, and my resentment became a curse, trapping their souls forever, unable to enter reincarnation."

"It's really cruel," Yu Sen was no longer afraid of her, and complained in a low voice, "Li Xiao was tortured to the point of going crazy, throwing things every night, like a maniac."

After speaking, he glanced at Si Xuanyang with connotation: Well, the same style is violent.

Song Ningxiu's lips trembled slightly.

Si Xuanyang, who had been silent all this time, said: "The person who bought you to kill you must be Zhao Yue. She is the only one who has this motive, and on the day of the wedding, there are probably not many people who know that she will replace you."

"I underestimated her," Song Ningxiu said, suppressing strong resentment, "She was sold to my Song family since she was a child, and I treated her well, but I can tell that she is small-minded, jealous, and scheming. Serious, but I didn't expect that she would be so courageous and vicious that she would pay to kill me!"

Yu Sen looked at the resentment around her, tilted his head and asked, "Then what do you want to do now? We can help you achieve your wish."

Their task was to relieve the grievances of Song Ningxiu who was the daughter of a salt merchant, and the most direct way was to help her achieve what she wanted.

Song Ningxiu's eyes trembled: "It's very simple, you just need to bring my body back to the Li Mansion, and I will take care of the rest by myself."

Yu Sen was a little surprised: "You still have to dig up the corpse?"

"Because of some restrictions imposed by the Li Mansion's curse, I cannot see them. The only way is to bring my corpse inside, then my soul may be able to break through this restriction."

"Okay..." Yu Sen sighed, after all these years, is this corpse still found?In other words, was it a dead body or a few gray bones that were found?

"Then where is your body?"

Song Ningxiu glanced at Lin Jianchuan with a half-smile, and said, "Your companion found it before, the mass grave."

-------------------------------------

Coming out of the storage room, Yu Sen looked a little depressed: "I never thought I would go to the mass grave to find the corpse one day, it's so disgusting, I'm going to throw up just thinking about it, and I just don't have to eat dinner."

"Then why don't you just stay in the room and sleep, anyway, we have enough people, we can do without you." Si Xuanyang's tone was sincere, and Yu Sen didn't seem to be mocking him from left to right.

"How can I do that?" He walked slowly, walking behind, guessing that Si Nan and the others wouldn't be able to hear what he said, so he shook his head and curled his lips listlessly.

"If I don't go, both of you will be robbed, Luo Yu robbed Si Nan, Lin Jianchuan robbed you, then I'm alone, how pitiful."

"..." Si Xuanyang was so angry that he was so angry that he couldn't help but sneered.

"Yu Sen, there must be something really wrong with your brain circuit! I only talked with Lin Jianchuan for a few minutes, and I have a fucking affair!?"

"What are you talking about? People with legs and no legs, so many people are not ashamed," Yu Sen widened his innocent eyes, "I'm talking about a good friend being robbed, and it's okay if a good friend is robbed." Angry, where did you go?"

"Hehe, just pretend!" Si Xuanyang rolled his eyes to the sky.

Feeling upset, he finally blurted out in a bad tone: "Since you can see that Luo Yu and my brother have problems, and you haven't taken any action, what are you doing here leisurely?"

But after I finished speaking, I regretted a little.

For him, if Yu Sen himself is unwilling to face his boyfriend having an affair with other men, he is even less willing to remind him directly in such a blunt way.

He thinks, just pretend to be stupid, there is nothing wrong with being happy.

Sure enough, Yu Sen showed him a big smiling face, but his eyes were full of unhappiness: "I want you to take care of it!"

***

Although they hadn't used it a few times, they had always thought that the hoe given by Wall Clock was a tool for self-defense, but they didn't expect it to be used to dig up corpses for them.

Before leaving, Yu Sen took the opportunity to push Si Xuanyang into the room while Si Nan and Luo Yu were looking for things in the utility room of the hotel.

"What are you doing?" Si Xuanyang sat by the bed and looked at him warily.

"Hmph, this sentence again, can you have something new?"

Yu Sen sighed and knelt down in front of him.

"Fuck! What the hell are you trying to do!?" Si Xuanyang panicked and almost jumped up.

Yu Sen couldn't bear it anymore, he took out a roll of bandages and put them in front of him: "I just want to replace the wound on your foot with a clean bandage! Si Xuanyang, can you fucking stop thinking of a lot of yellow things every time you look at me?" Waste?"

"...I didn't!" Si Xuanyang choked out three words dryly, his face flushed red.

"All right, all right, I believe you, just don't describe YY's yellow waste to me." Yu Sen calmly untied the thin bed sheet around his ankles.

"...Why do you talk like this——ah!" Si Xuanyang sighed weakly, feeling his ankles getting cold, and quickly bowed his head: "I'll do it myself!"

"Move it! It's all untied just now, don't move!" Yu Sen angrily scolded.

"Also, what's wrong with my talking? Have you ever talked to a male classmate like this in school? Are you men?"

Si Xuanyang moved slightly uncomfortably, his eyes fell on the top of Yu Sen's soft black hair.

He thought about it, there are quite a lot of jokes between boys like this, but the problem is...he and Si Nan are in a relationship.

Yu Sen wrapped the bandage very lightly, and sprayed a little medicine before wrapping it up, and now it was cool and painless at all, and Si Xuanyang suddenly felt the feeling of powerlessness getting heavier, mixed with a trace of sourness, like the tide Swept over his whole body, he didn't even have the strength to raise his head, he just stared at the top of Yu Sen's head in a daze.

"OK, perfect!" Yu Sen snapped his fingers, raised his head, and met the somewhat dazed eyes of his boss, Xuan Yang.

Those eyes were so clean and clear that his heart trembled.

"...What's wrong with you? Stupid?"

"Ah? No." Si Xuanyang's eyes fell on the bandage tied with a bow tie around his ankle, and he smiled. The smile was so light that it was almost invisible.

"Girl-like dressing, I won't charge you this time." Yu Sen patted him on the shoulder and stood up.

Si Nan's urging voice came from outside the house: "Are you two alright? We've packed all our things, it's time to go, it won't be safe if it's late."

"Damn it, come here!"
