Frost Snow Gu Chunchuang

Wei Zhenghang's right eyelid twitched without warning, and Master Liang said with a sad face, "There must be evil if the tiles are broken."

There were a few more light footsteps on the roof, and a fur ball was seen running away from afar.Wei Zhenghang laughed and said, "It's just a wild cat."

"Master, in this ancient house in the old city, even wild cats can become fine." Master Liang said with a glance at him.

Wei Zhenghang inexplicably remembered the little beggar he met that day at the temple fair, and couldn't help frowning even deeper.He also heard Mr. Liang say: "I heard that the Sanjie Mountain in Jiangzhou City is an ominous mountain. The mountain occupies a spiritual vein, and it is often heard that there are monsters haunting it."

"Three Realms Mountain..." Wei Zhenghang remembered that he and Su Gu went up the mountain twice, but he really didn't see anyone on the mountain.

And Su Gu is very familiar with this mountain...

He shook his head, not daring to think further.

For several days in a row, the same mummy was sent every day. Although they were not all found in the same place, they were all not far from the Three Realms Mountain.

The autopsy results were exactly the same. These people had no external injuries, and their flesh and blood seemed to have been sucked dry by some unorthodox method. Apart from the fact that they were all grown men in the city, there was no other connection.

The more Wei Zhenghang thought about it, the more frightened he became. The manpower in the yamen was limited, and they were all sent to guard the mountain, but the murderer seemed like a ghost, and he just created a corpse under the guard's nose.

At night, the dog barked three times, and Su Gu pushed open the door of the inn.

The candlelight was shining inside, one person turned his back to him, suddenly turned around, with a charming woman's face, ten fingers of cardamom, smiling frivolously at him——

"Su Gu, I knew you would come."

On the other side, at the foot of Sanjie Mountain, the night watchman dozed off when he saw that there was no movement around.Not far behind him, a figure staggered towards him like a man in a daze.The man walked under a tree, suddenly knocked his head against the tree trunk, and fell down immediately.

7. Expose flaws

There was a rumor about a monster in Jiangzhou City, and the ominous rumors about the Three Realms Mountain were once again brought out in detail.

Wei Zhenghang was so busy that he was dizzy for several days, and the yamen's servants were not free to work. After three or five days of tossing around like this, seeing that the news became more and more evil, eight corpses were placed in the morgue, but the murderer still had no clue.

After several days of busy visits to the family members of the deceased, they found nothing. It was as if the person walked to the foot of the Three Realms Mountain by himself, and then turned into a mummy inexplicably. Even Wei Zhenghang wondered whether the murder was committed by ordinary people.

During this period, when he remembered that Zeng and Su Gu had been to the Three Realms Mountain, he didn't dare to look for him again.It wasn't until Gongsunqiao's greeting card came to the door, with Shangweilou written in black on a red background, that Wei Zhenghang remembered the meal he had with Su Gu.

Master Liang explained from the side: "Master Gongsun invites the young master to go to Shangweilou tonight."

Wei Zhenghang wanted to refuse at first, but he just looked at the location on the invitation card, thought about it and put it away: "Gongsun's family is a big family, and it has been rooted in Jiangzhou for many years, so it is necessary to make friends."

Master Liang also agreed: "I'll go prepare the sedan chair."

Just as they were talking, there were several noises outside the door.The foreman of the yamen was named Zhao Liu, a few years older than Wei Zhenghang, unkempt all day long, with an unshaven face, and at this time he grabbed a young servant and came to complain: "My lord, this kid has embezzled the deceased's belongings. "

He presented a tourmaline ring: "I just saw this man sneaking around in front of the morgue, and after checking, I found that he took a ring from a corpse's hand."

Wei Zhenghang was annoyed by the quarrel, and said to Zhao Liu: "Keep the ring as evidence first, and return it to the family after the case is solved." He looked at the younger guard again, "He will teach you how to deal with it, and you will be fined for half a month. .”

Zhao Liu took the order and went out. The sedan chair was ready, and Wei Zhenghang lowered his head and got in.

The long street was already dimly lit, red lanterns hung outside the Shangwei Building, and the waiter stood outside the door to welcome customers.When Wei Zhenghang got off the sedan chair, Gongsun Qiao had already come to greet him.Wei Zhenghang saw that he was over fifty years old, with a thin body, wearing a gray silk coat, and his small eyes shone when he saw him.

"Thank you, Mr. Wei, for the honor, upstairs please!"

Wei Zhenghang dared not say anything, and went straight upstairs. Just as he reached the stairs, he heard a burst of laughter.The voice was charming, but it could be vaguely recognized as a man's voice.Wei Zhenghang paused for a moment, and when he looked up, he saw Su Gu sitting by the window. He was dressed in white and stood out among the crowd. He had a desolate expression on his face, and there was a half-smile on his lips.And opposite him was Lu Que who covered his mouth and laughed.

The two of them naturally saw him too. The expression on Su Gu's face froze for a moment, while Lu Que remained the same, without the slightest look of surprise, and only waved to him: "Oh my, Mr. Wei is so leisurely and interested. Go to the restaurant."

Wei Zhenghang's eyes were all on Su Gu, his expression was blank, and he didn't speak for a while.Although he had little contact with Su Gu, it could be seen that he was rarely close to others.Even the clerks in the shop rarely knew his whereabouts on weekdays, let alone any friends and confidants.However, at this time, Su Gu and Lu Que were sitting at the same table, and they seemed to have a good conversation...

At least before, Lu Que's smile was indeed very cheerful.

He blocked the stairs, and Gongsun Qiao behind him didn't see the situation above, so he asked, "What's the matter, my lord?"

"Ah..." Wei Zhenghang came back to his senses now, and quickly stepped forward a few steps sideways, saying, "It's all right."

Seeing this, Lu Que smiled even more unscrupulously: "What an idiot."

Wei Zhenghang blushed immediately when he heard that, he didn't dare to look at Su Gu, greeted him in a low voice, and turned around hastily.He didn't have time to hear whether Su Gu answered him, Gongsun Qiao had already prepared the box, Wei Zhenghang followed, and found that there was another person in the box, and when he saw him coming, he stood up and bowed gracefully.

"My little daughter Gongsun Ying pays a visit to Lord Wei."

Wei Zhenghang hurriedly returned the gift, only now did he realize that this person looked familiar, it was actually the second lady who threw the hydrangea ball at Shangweilou that day.

He paused, remembering that day when he and Su Gu were trapped in it, the crowd was crowded, and someone pushed him.

Blue clothes!Big man!

He remembered that when the hydrangea was thrown down, a hand with a tourmaline ring patted the hydrangea...

The mummy murders of the past few days are connected in my mind. If there is any relationship between these people, it seems that they all appeared when throwing hydrangeas!

The more Wei Zhenghang thought about it, the more frightened he became. This incident seemed to be inextricably related to the second lady of the Gongsun family.He looked Miss Gongsun up and down, she looks delicate, her body is boneless, she looks very weak, how could she trick someone into Three Realms Mountain and kill her?

Unless there's something else hiding under this skin...

He was taken aback by his own thoughts, but his expression remained calm.The shop waiter quickly brought up the dishes, braised pork knuckle, crystal shrimp, fish head with chopped pepper...

Wei Zhenghang frowned, he always liked vegetarian food rather than meat, it seems that it was not Shangweilou that suits his taste, but that Su Gu's order suits him that day.

Thinking of this, he thought of Su Gu who was sitting not far away.

When he first heard about the Sanjieshan murder case, he still thought about Su Gu, but now it seems that he has worried too much.

Although across the box, Lu Que's laughter still came from time to time, I don't know what they were talking about, Lu Que laughed so happily, what kind of expression did Su Gu have?

Wei Zhenghang imagined how Su Gu would look like when he smiled, his eyebrows and eyes were curved, like a spring breeze, it would definitely make people unable to look away.

While thinking about the case, he was also thinking about Su Gu, and he was absent-minded when eating.Wei Zhenghang bit his chopsticks until he heard a low laugh from the opposite side, and a pair of chopsticks held a piece of fish with a bone in it and handed it over.

Gongsun Ying looked at him with a smile, her eyes looked bright, although she had applied a little makeup, her cheeks seemed to be whiter than ordinary people, showing a little sickness.Wei Zhenghang thought for a while, and suddenly asked: "A few days ago, I saw Miss Gongsun throwing a hydrangea ball to recruit relatives. Who is lucky enough to get the hydrangea ball?"

Hearing this, Gongsun Qiao said, "To be honest, I invited you here this time for this purpose." He paused, glanced at Gongsun Ying, and said slowly, "The one who received the hydrangea was Li Xiucai, although his family background I am poor, but my ancestors are also from a scholarly family, so it can be regarded as a poor family."

Wei Zhenghang didn't know why, so he said, "Congratulations, Master Gongsun, it's really a beautiful thing."

"Yeah..." Gongsun Qiao sighed and explained the purpose of coming, "I found someone to reconcile the horoscope, only the [-]th of this month is an auspicious day, and the next good day will have to wait until a year later. Such a hurried marriage, everything The preparations are not ready yet, I have an unfeeling request, I want to invite Mrs. Wei to be their officiant."

Wei Zhenghang was worried that he didn't know how to continue the investigation, and nodded immediately: "It's not difficult, but I haven't seen such a scene before, I'm afraid if there is a mistake..."

"As long as your lord agrees!" Gongsun Qiao was very happy, "Of course someone will take care of the cumbersome things. As long as your lord shows up at the wedding, it will be fine for the Gongsun family to take care of you."

Outside the box, the window is quite conspicuous.

Lu Que smiled prettily, attracting the eyes of the guests around him.Su Gu sat as firmly as Mount Tai, and Lu Que held his chin with a dissatisfied expression on his face: "You really have changed. You would never eat at the same table as me before. If I make such a fuss, I will definitely get mad, but now my heart is as calm as water."

Su Gu took a sip of tea slowly, and said lightly, "You have changed too."

"Huh?" Lu Que's eyes lit up, "Did he become more handsome and unparalleled?"

"No." Su Gu put down the teacup and glanced at him, "You're out of your mind, you've been laughing at a table of food for half an hour, how long have you not eaten?"

"..." After hearing this, Lu Que was not only not angry, but instead squinted his eyes and smiled, pointing to the box in the corner intentionally or unintentionally, "Why, are you afraid of being heard by others?"

"Hmph." Su Gu sneered, "You laugh on purpose for others to hear,
