In the eyes of the people in the surrounding villages and towns, Wang Huan's house is a rare and extremely grand courtyard. But in the final analysis, such a house and courtyard is just a courtyard that can be entered into. It is different from what the rich and high-ranking officials in the city usually do.
The three-entry compound and the four-sided courtyard where you live are simply incomparable.
The two brothers Li Xiongbiao climbed over the wall and landed in the passage between the main room and the wall.
The two of them clung to the wall and poked their heads out.
In the courtyard as soon as you enter, there are two wing rooms in the east and west, a main room, and a reverse room.
At this time, candles were still burning in the window of the inverted room opposite to the main entrance, and the lights in the other two wing rooms were extinguished.
A wooden shed about half the height of a man was built in front of the house. A yellow dog was hiding in the wooden shed and had already fallen asleep. He had not noticed the sudden arrival of the Li Xiongbiao brothers in the yard.
Li Xiongbiao hid in the dark and carefully observed the big yellow dog in the wooden shed.
He took out a small piece of black corned cornmeal from the small pocket behind him, took some medicinal powder and sprinkled it on the black corned cornmeal, wrapped the piece of cornstarch sprinkled with bait with a thread, and threw it into the middle of the courtyard.
The nest made a slight sound when it fell to the ground. The big yellow dog sleeping in the wooden shed jumped up and got out of the wooden shed. With two cat ears erect, he observed the movement in the yard - Li Xiongbiao gently pulled the dog in the dark.
The thin line connected to the bait, the yellow dog's sharp eyes, immediately discovered the existence of the bait.
It whimpered lowly, sniffed lightly, and cautiously approached the piece of bait.
The medicinal powder sprinkled on the head of the nest exudes an aroma that makes the yellow dog salivate. Every time it takes a step forward, the bait moves back a little, until it is lured to the corner - Li Xiongzhen grasped the dog's mouth with one hand, and
The other hand struck the dog's neck sharply, knocking the yellow dog unconscious!
He bent down and tiptoed towards the inverted room with candlelight, pushed the window panel open a little, squinted at the situation inside, and then looked at the situation in several other rooms before turning back.
In the corridor, he said to Li Xiongbiao: "The reverse house is where several servants live, and it is also the woodshed of his family.
Wang Huan and his wife lived in the east wing.
His father and his mother live in the west wing, and no one lives in the main room."
"Go in later. You go and stun Wang Huan's Xixian. I'll tie him up." Li Xiongbiao took out a folded square scarf and handed it to Li Xiongzhen.
The latter nodded.
The two of them hunched over and walked to the door of the east wing.
Li Xiongbiao stood in front and pushed the door gently - there was no latch on the back of the door. He pushed the door open a crack. Li Xiongbiao was a little surprised and turned to look at Li Xiongzhen behind him.
At this time, the candlelight in the reverse room suddenly went out.
In the thick darkness, Li Xiongbiao couldn't even hear the breathing of Wang Huan and his wife in the room.
The night was extremely quiet.
Li Xiongbiao had some inexplicable feelings in his heart. He didn't pay attention to the 'feeling' that suddenly appeared in his heart, and slowly opened the door.
The cool moonlight pours into the east wing from outside the door. The shadows of the two brothers Li Xiongbiao flash across the pale moonlight on the ground. The moonlight spreads forward - it shows the wooden bed bent over, holding a rope to bind.
Wang Huan fell in love with the man in bed.
Wang Huan only wore his underwear, pulled on his shoes, grabbed his wife's feet on the bed with one hand, and held the end of the rope with the other hand, and tied the rope around his wife's ankles.
His wife's hands had been tied tightly by him, and her eyes were closed at this time, as if she was sleeping soundly.
The two Li Xiongbiao brothers who hid in the main room looked at Wang Huan's actions in shock. They didn't understand why he got up from the bed in the middle of the night and tied the hands and feet of his sleeping wife.
Wang Huan was sweating on his forehead and was busy with the matter in front of him.
He didn't notice someone pushing the door and walking into the house - but with a quick glance from the corner of his eye, he saw the moonlight spreading out into a strip of light under his feet. Looking at the moonlight pouring in from the crack in the door, Wang
Huan's expression froze, and there was more cold sweat on his forehead. He stopped moving his hands and froze in place, not daring to move!
The Li Xiongbiao brothers reacted at this moment!
The two of them pounced together and pushed Wang Huan to the ground!
Xiongzhen spread out the square scarf in his hand and covered Wang Huan's mouth and nose with it.
Wang Huan was pressed to the ground, and then he seemed to react suddenly and shouted twice: "Thieves! Aren't you afraid of death?!"
The trick is coming, the trick is knocking on the door!
Let me go quickly—"
The square scarf soaked in an unknown liquid was held between Wang Huan's mouth and nose for a while. Wang Huan's struggle became weaker and weaker, and he passed out completely within a short time.
Wang Huan Xuxian, who was tied up on the bed, still had his eyes closed tightly and was not awakened at all by the movement just now.
Li Xiongzhen, who had stunned Wang Huan, raised his head, looked at Li Xiongbiao next to him, and frowned: "He just said that a ghost was knocking on the door. What does that mean?"
"Maybe you think we two are the ones knocking on the door!"
"What should we do now? There's something wrong with this..."
"Take Wang Huan away first and get out of this place quickly!"
The two exchanged a few words and tied Wang Huan up tightly.
Li Xiongbiao picked up Wang Huan and walked out the door first. Li Xiongzhen followed him and turned to look at Wang Huan, who was sleeping soundly on the bed with his hands and feet tied.
She was wearing a moon-white undergarment, and the moonlight shone on her face from outside the door, making her charming face even whiter.
Looking at that lifeless face, for some reason, Li Xiongzhen felt a sudden shock in his heart. He hurriedly turned back and followed his brother Li Xiongbiao out of the door. Before he walked out, there was a knock on the door from the main courtyard door.
It rang——
Tuk-tuk-tuk!
Tuk! Tuk! Tuk!
The heavier moonlight tore through the dark clouds, illuminating the ground of the courtyard in white.
In the reverse room, the windows of the west wing were illuminated by the snow-white moonlight, reflecting several figures inside!
——The people in the two rooms that Li Xiongzhen inspected before were not sleeping and resting at all. They were standing in front of the window, eavesdropping on the movement outside the door through the window!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! What's going on outside the door - in the yard? Are they going to hide in the house and eavesdrop like this, not daring to go out?!
The figure in the window tiptoed and lowered his body, leaving only the silhouette of half of his head attached to the window edge. He was still eavesdropping on the noise outside the door. But at this moment, the knocking on the door suddenly stopped!
Li Xiongbiao and Li Xiongzhen looked at each other!
The look in their eyes clearly said: "The situation outside the yard is not right, we must find a place to take shelter first!"
The two brothers have been hunting together in the mountains for many years. They have a tacit understanding of each other's cooperation. When their eyes moved, they knew what they were thinking. Li Xiongzhen immediately wanted to retreat into the room behind him - before he took a step back, a sudden thought occurred in his mind.
The paper-white face flashed across his face, making his scalp numb and he turned around to look——
In the east wing, which is dimly illuminated by the moonlight.
Wang Huan's second wife was sitting upright on the wooden bed, with light yellow curtains hanging from above, making her figure hazy behind the curtains, making her look even more graceful.
Her feet without shoes and stockings were exposed under the curtain - but they were purple-red and exuded a strong smell of corpse!
The moment he saw those feet, Li Xiongzhen's hair stood up in fear!
He hurriedly pushed Li Xiongbiao and pushed his brother who was retreating into the house outside the threshold. The moment he was about to follow him away, it was as if a pair of cold hands were placed on his shoulders, and his body was covered by the coldness.
Li Xiongzhen, who was stiff with the cold, pulled him through the door.
The door slammed shut!
Li Xiongbiao was carrying Wang Huan on his shoulders, and the moment he steadied himself, he turned around and saw the door slamming shut. His expression changed a few times, and he realized that his brother was probably hit by something evil. At this time, he heard a voice coming from the courtyard door.
There is a short sound——
Bang!
He turned to look at the courtyard door.
In the dark doorway connected to the courtyard door, there was a sound like wooden blocks falling to the ground, and the two courtyard doors slowly opened.
The door shaft rotated, making a continuous sound that made Li Xiongbiao feel nervous.
squeak--
The pale moonlight shone into the doorway from outside the courtyard door, allowing Li Xiongbiao to see clearly that there was a doorbolt lying on the ground in the doorway - the thing that made a noise when it fell to the ground just now was the doorbolt!
The bolt that was clearly inserted into the door and locked it tightly fell off the door!
Both doors are opened as far as they will go.
The bright moonlight illuminated the floor of the doorway in white.
In the white moonlight, a 'person' walked into the doorway with stiff steps. This 'person' had no shadow - it was not a human being.
It was wearing a big felt hat, and a hood was covered under the felt hat.
The mouth and nose of this hood were replaced by a huge bird's beak.
With a huge bird's beak on its head and wearing a black robe, a terrifying figure like a crow quietly stood in the doorway. A very thin rat tail occasionally protruded from the hem of the leather robe!
Li Xiongbiao had never seen such attire in the local area. The moment he saw the terrifying black crow-like figure, those foreign Taoist priests from the Qin Dynasty who also wore black robes and swaggered everywhere suddenly appeared in his mind!
Except for the beak mask on the head of this 'black crow' and the tall felt hat on its head, it is not much different from the attire of those foreign Taoist priests!
The two huge, black tumor-like eye holes of the 'Black Crow' suddenly opened, and one eye 'squeezed' out of the eye hole. Those 'eyes' were obviously not grown on the same person, and they all stared at it.
Li Xiongbiao - it raised its rotten arm, covered with black spots and pus and blood, and struck a few times in the void.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Li Xiongbiao heard his heartbeat beating with the 'black crow' gesture.
His whole body was hot and his face was pale, but he felt extremely cold at this moment!
Dark spots sprouted from his skin.
His mind quickly became confused, and pain burst out from his internal organs!
"Foreign ghost -" Li Xiongbiao shouted, leaving Wang Huan, who also woke up from a coma and was covered in black spots, and ran straight into the diagonal main room!
The black spots on Wang Huan's body spread rapidly, forming tumors that oozed blood and pus.
He looked at the 'crow' walking by him, his mouth wide open and speechless!
