After Lin You watched for a while, she confirmed that there was no one in the main hall, so she opened the door and prepared to leave. There's nothing to gain from staying any longer, so don't waste your time.
Not long after it got dark, Lin You was sure that the eldest young master would not move for a while. Therefore, Lin You planned to deal with another matter.
This is about her mission. Her mission is: Who can Madam Xu be sorry for
When getting this task, Lin You initially wanted to contact the eldest lady, but no one from the eldest house except the eldest young master showed up on the first day.
After learning that the old lady died, Lin You subconsciously wondered if the old lady might be related to this mission. After all, hasn’t the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law been a big problem since ancient times
Unfortunately, no clues were obtained from the old woman. Thinking of this, the dressing table without a mirror suddenly flashed in Lin You's mind. After hesitating for a while between the eldest young master and the old lady, they finally decided
If you meet a player on the road, go to the young master's side together; if not, go to the old lady's side. However, along the way, Lin You didn't even see a servant watching the night.
Soon, the small courtyard with white lanterns arrived. Lin You still didn't dare to be careless. After waiting for a while, there was no movement before quietly opening the door.
This small gesture made Lin You extremely happy. Because the door was only opened a crack, I saw the waker who had been lying on the ground stumbled up, and his body slowly became more flexible as time went by. Lin You was sure that this was the paper man who attacked him last night.
The paper man moved for a while and then stood there confused for a while, then turned around and walked towards the back of the yard. Lin You saw the paper man turning the corner and followed him without hesitation. The paper man was now empty in his hands, but Lin You felt that he could give it a try.
After all, I couldn't get through the door yesterday. The strength can be seen as average.
Lin You quietly followed the paper man to the backyard. Behind the old lady's yard are some utility rooms and places where maids and wives live. There is no one there anymore, and it looks very lonely. The paper man turned a few corners with ease and stopped at the door of the small kitchen in the old lady's backyard. He opened the door and walked in.
Lin You didn't dare to follow him in, so he could only walk to the door and try to observe the movements of the paper man and estimate the time when he would take action.
The paper man came to the kitchen, casually picked up a kitchen knife, and chopped it on the chopping board a few times. As if he felt uncomfortable, he dropped the kitchen knife and continued to try the food hidden in the cabinet. There are several kitchen knives, and you must find one that suits your taste. The knives were arranged very regularly, so Lin You could tell at a glance that the missing one was the knife hanging on his waist.
It seems that the knife that was left behind by Lin You yesterday is the favorite of the paperless man, so it tried here for a long time before having to settle for one of the kitchen knives with a long and narrow blade. . Seeing that it had chosen the knife, Lin You quickly turned around and pressed against the wall next to the kitchen door. Holding her breath, she tightened her grip on the knife that the paper man had dropped yesterday.
The paper man walks very lightly and makes almost no sound. But its body is made of paper and wears human clothes, so it makes a "swirling" sound when walking.
5, 4, 3, 2, 1!
Silver light cut through the silent night, and Lin You jumped up. She could almost feel the paper man's confusion when he saw her. But Lin You gritted his teeth and slashed the paper man's right shoulder with the knife. Using his greatest strength, the knife split the paper man in half like a flowing motion. The knife in the paper man's hand fell with a sound.
Lin You knew that the paper man's body was fragile, but she couldn't believe that she could so easily kill the paper man who was still arrogant at the door of her room yesterday. Seeing the paper man lying on the ground and being split into two halves, Lin You frantically slashed it a few more times until the paper man could no longer see its original state.
The ground was covered with shredded paper and bamboo strips.
Lin You covered her face and smiled silently.
See, actually, it's actually quite easy.
Lin You comforted herself, so don't be so afraid.
Lin You was stunned for a few moments and looked at the kitchen stove. The fire inside had long been extinguished. Somehow, Lin You used the ball of clothes to clean up the remains of the paper figure on the ground and brought it to the mourning hall where the old woman was.
I don’t know what happened to the candles on the incense table in the mourning hall, but they were always burning like this. Lin You used the fire to wrap the remains of the paper man in clothes and burned them together.
The fire light jumped up and down, and Lin You felt that she had changed in some way, but it seemed that she had not. But at least she could sleep peacefully in the middle of the night, and Lin You felt that there was nothing wrong with it. Soon, the faceless man was burned completely, leaving only a handful of ashes. Lin You finally regained consciousness, but as soon as she recovered, she felt something was wrong.
There seems to be something wrong with the paper figures on the left and right sides of the coffin? ?
Lin You looked over one by one and found that these paper figures actually avoided her inspection. Lin You remembered that when they inspected the coffin yesterday, these paper figures were all staring at them.
The position can be moved, but how can the painted eyes be moved
There must be a ghost!
Lin You held the candle taken from the incense table, and the flames flickered, illuminating Lin You's expression clearly clearly. After a stalemate for a while, these paper figures did not attack Lin You. They stood in place one by one, as if they were just ordinary paper figures.
Lin You suddenly saw the blood on the corner of the mouth of the paper man pulling the carriage and horse. His heart skipped a beat, but he quickly calmed down again. There were six people on the opposite side who had an absolute numerical advantage in front of me, but they didn't take action. What did this prove
They can't take action.
Lin You came to this conclusion after thinking that the faceless paper man he met last night was also after midnight. Although it was a little earlier today, his strength was not good. So the ones hurt by these paper figures will definitely not be old players, but newcomers
No matter what she guessed in her heart, Lin You had slowly approached the paper man with the candle, and sure enough, a flash of fear flashed in the eyes of the paper man closest to her.
"Oh? Are you scared?" Lin You looked at the paper man who rolled his eyes guiltily and smiled.
In the past, she was frightened and even passively accepted the move, but now...
"Ahhhh..."
The screams came one after another, but Lin You didn't sympathize with these paper figures. What the faceless paper man did to him yesterday, as well as the blood on the corner of the mouth of one of the six paper men, proved that these guys were no fun.
Sure enough, after burning, Lin You found flesh and blood among the ashes of several of the paper figures.
Fresh and blood-red, Lin You avoided it at a glance and stopped looking. It wasn't that she was scared, she just felt sick. After doing all this, Lin You put the candle back, looked at the incense next to it, and inexplicably gave the old lady another stick.
"You, don't blame me." Lin You said while lighting the incense, "I burned the paper figurines for you so that you can use them underground. Otherwise, if they were just displayed, you would suffer a lot, wouldn't you?"
I don't know if Lin You's darkened aura was too obvious, but the incense I put on this time was actually very good, and it didn't burn out like yesterday. When Lin You saw this, she sneered in her heart.
Oh haha, ghosts are really afraid of evil people.
"Who are you?" The voice from behind made Lin You, who was still pretending to be sexy in the mourning hall, tremble all over and turned around subconsciously.
A teenage girl wearing a blue dress looked at her strangely. Her eyes could not be clearly seen in such a dark night, but her skin was snow-white, and she had an aura that made me feel pity for her.
The little girl looked around the mourning hall, and then slowly walked towards the mourning hall. Lin You's muscles all tensed up. But the little girl crossed the threshold and walked indoors. Under the light of the candlelight, Lin You discovered that she had a shadow. This discovery made Lin You relieved, as long as it was not a ghost.
"Oh my God, here..." the little girl looked over, "Did you do this?"
Lin You was stunned for a moment, then shook her head as if nothing had happened, indicating that it was not her.
"I, I don't know either." Lin You looked innocent. "It was like this when I came here."
"This..." The little girl looked a little suspicious, "Why haven't I seen you before? Did you come to Xu Mansion just recently?"
Lin You began to explain his origins. After hearing Lin You's identity, the alert look on the little girl's face disappeared. I don't know if it's because of Miss Lin Youbiao's identity, or because she's hiding her emotions.
"I am the second daughter of the Xu family. Sister Lin's sister can just call me Le Qi." The second daughter of the Xu family introduced herself.
Lin You knew that there was a second girl in the Xu family, but she was from the third family. She was weak. She showed up on the first day but was hiding in a corner. Lin You was patronizing several important people in the Xu family. For I don’t have much memory of this girl, and I don’t remember her face clearly. But I didn't expect him to have such a gentle and gentle temperament.
"Le, cousin Le Qi." Lin You could only call her like this. Anyway, the women she met called her the sister of the Lin family, although in fact Lin You was much older than them.
"Why is the Lin family's cousin here?" Miss Xu Er glanced at the incense stick in the incense burner. "I remember that the guest room is separated from here..."
Lin You blinked her eyes, and then shed hypocritical tears.
"I, I don't know either, the Xu family seems to have..." After saying this, Lin You looked at Miss Xu with a look of fear on her face.
"Ah, you know." Miss Xu Er's face was very calm. "Yes, there is a ghost in the Xu family."
Lin You: ... You don't want to try to cover it up with me
After saying that, Miss Xu Er showed a sarcastic smile.
"This ghost from the Xu family is the old lady."
"Old, old lady?" Lin You glanced at Miss Xu Er suspiciously, then looked at the red paint coffin, "But, the old lady is not a good person..."
"No, it's the old lady. She not only wants to kill the second master of the Xu family, but also the eldest uncle, the eldest lady of the Xu family, and everyone in the Xu family!" At this moment, the second son of the Xu family The girl's face showed a ferocious look, "It's her, she's going to make things difficult for the Xu family!"
Lin You thought this girl was quite normal at first, but now, let's put a question mark. It looked like he had a mental problem. Lin You was silent for a while, and after seeing her expression calm down, she pretended to be scared and asked for information:
"Why does the old lady do this?"
Miss Xu Er took out three incense sticks with bare hands, lit them on the nearby candle, and then inserted them into the incense burner. Looking at the slowly rising smoke, she spoke:
"Of course, it's for revenge."
"Revenge for her two dead men and one woman."
The author has something to say: Lin You: Today I will show you a paper man making a bayonet with his bare hands!
Paperman: We agreed to one-on-one, but you actually ransacked the house one-on-one! unfair!
You may think there will be bugs in this chapter, but it is actually foreshadowing, so... calm down.
