Shi Ying walked back along the way she came. The little beauty's coffin was placed in the southwest corner of the mansion. Master Xue's room must be the farthest place from here. It's hard to guess the thoughts of the two elders of the Xue family.
Now she has no idea how to take the little beauty away from the Xue Mansion, but she can go to the male protagonist to see if he is dead or alive, and if he is alive, whether he is prosperous or not.
It makes no sense for the female protagonist to be imprisoned even after she dies, and she still wants to live as the male protagonist. Shouldn't such a male protagonist just let him die? Shi Ying's secret thoughts of killing Mr. Xue resurfaced, and her eyes were everywhere.
Qu Xun wanted to find a handy tool.
Of course, she was just thinking about it. She didn't say whether the Xue family, which had many servants, would let her bring a murder weapon close to Mr. Xue. She just said that considering the relationship between colleagues in the next few days, she couldn't do it.
Mr. Xue's room was really easy to find. If Shi Ying hadn't been tricked by the two maids into going to the southwest, she would have been able to find someone close to her by walking around and seeing where there were many people.
The courtyard was decorated very festively, with red cloths hanging on the branches and flower stems, red paper on the windows and doors, and the servants coming in and out all had stiff smiles on their faces, which was a bit eerie and joyful.
When Shi Ying entered the courtyard, she was not chased away. She did not dare to ask anyone for questioning, but directly entered the only open door in the small courtyard.
She must have gone to the wrong place. Shi Ying saw the chicken coop on the table. Inside was the substitute chicken that worshiped in the front hall not long ago. Even the rope that bound its mouth was not removed.
There was a room on the left and right of the hall, and the doors were closed. Shi Ying looked at the door and found nothing. He returned to the table, knocked on the table, and asked, "Where is the groom?"
The stand-in chicken jumped twice in the cage, with its head pointed to the left.
Shi Ying thanked him, walked to the door on the left, raised his hand and pushed the door open.
When pushing the door open, Shi Ying suddenly remembered the saying that all things have animism. Based on her own experience, isn't it true that all things have animism?
The room was filled with the unique smell of incense and herbs, which seemed to be mixed with the smell of burning. It made Ying Ying squint her eyes when she first came in.
When Shi Ying came in, she didn't step or move lightly. Logically speaking, if there was someone in the room, she would hear the movement immediately. But now Shi Ying is standing in the room, and no one has jumped out to ask who you are.
.
Shi Ying observed the environment. Although it was filled with smoke, she could clearly see that it was a bedroom. It had a wardrobe, table, and bed frame, but no one could be seen at first glance.
There was a curtain covering the bed. Shi Ying took a candlestick from the table, waved it twice to extinguish the candle, pulled out the red candle, pointed the spike of the candlestick at the bed with one hand, and suddenly opened the curtain with the other hand.
The young man opened his eyes quietly and looked at Shi Ying. He didn't speak or move, and his eyelashes didn't even tremble.
Shi Ying: Brother, please stay awake. It will be easier if you stay awake.
“Mr.
After waiting for a while, the young man blinked slowly, as if he had just heard the sound, coughed twice, and answered in a dry voice as if he had not drank water for a day: "Cough, cough, it's me, you?"
Shi Ying hung the bed curtain on the hook with one hand, turned around and inserted the red candle that had just been removed, lit it on the candle of another candlestick, put the candlestick that had been used as a self-defense prop back in its original position, and let it
Return to its original duties.
Shi Ying didn't look back, picked up the teapot, poured a glass of water, and asked the person on the bed, "Would you like some water?"
The young man did not answer, but was very persistent in asking his question: "Ahem, who are you?"
Shi Ying raised her hand and drank the glass of water herself, stood back by the bed, pulled up a chair and sat down, then said, "I am a person who enjoys helping others."
The young man stopped talking, pursed his lips tightly, and looked a little angry.
Shi Ying looked at him and continued: "This is your wedding bridal chamber, right? Why are you the only one, and where is the bride?"
The boy still didn't speak and stared at Shi Ying, seeming to be even more angry.
"I didn't see you when I first watched the ceremony. I thought you were dead like the bride."
The young man was angry and wanted to scold Shiying, but he was so angry that he couldn't speak. He wanted to throw something at her, but he couldn't move his body.
Seeing his handsome face turning red, Shi Ying stopped bullying him and got down to business.
"Do you know where I came from? I'll give you a hint. It's the southwest corner of the house."
The man frowned at first and didn't want to pay attention to Shi Ying. After hearing the second half of the sentence, his face showed confusion and questioning.
Shi Ying smiled: "Do you have anything to ask me?"
"I...I...I don't know..." The young man tried to speak several times, but in the end he only said these four words with frustration.
"You don't know? Then let me ask you a few things to see if you know." Shi Ying sarcastically spit out several questions: "Do you know that she became a ghost and was trapped there by your parents and couldn't come out?
?Did you know that when she went to church today, she wanted to see you but she only saw a rooster? Your parents didn't even let her see you, for fear that she would become a ghost and kill you, right? In that case, why did you let her
She is not free even after she dies. You Jiang family didn’t want her when she was alive, but why do you want to imprison her after she dies?”
The young man was stunned by her series of words. His face showed expressions of shock, disbelief, regret, pain, and finally confusion.
"How, how could it be... I didn't know it would be like this... That's not what my parents said..." He murmured with his eyes closed.
Shi Ying shook his head. He was just a young boy. He was just a little stupid and had no bad intentions. He wanted to be independent when his wings were not strong enough. However, the autonomy given by others was not true independence. Instead, it dragged the girl into the abyss.
Call him bad, he is just the stupid eldest son of the Chiang family, call him good, but he can't find any good points, and let the girl die without being free.
The young man took out a bright red concentric knot from under the pillow with difficulty, pushed it to the bedside, and said: "This was given by the Taoist priest. He said that after we worship, her soul will go inside to recuperate, and she will be reincarnated twenty years later to recuperate."
The better it is, the better it will be for people to invest in it.”
"I thought that even though the yin and yang are separated, she is always by my side. After she is cultivated, she can find a good family, which is my compensation for her."
"But from what you said, it seems that my parents and the Taoist priests deceived me."
The man sighed, as if he was not used to speaking for such a long period of time. He took a few deep breaths and calmed down for a while before saying: "I don't know if the effect of the Tongxinknot is as good as what the Taoist said. They are doing this in this matter."
Didn’t you lie to me? But it’s useless for me to keep it. You can take it and give it a try.”
"If possible, can you please use this knot of unity to take her out of the house? This is also my small compensation to her. If this knot of unity is of no use, I will only ask you to bring my heart to her. I will think about it again.
