Xiao Er served wine and food.
The food tasted good, and the four chatted while eating.
Halfway through the meal, the conversation on the second floor was much quieter, and there was a noise from the stairs. Zhu Sui knocked on the table and whispered, "A player is here."
Chen Caixing looked over, three men and two women, still dressed in modern clothes, picked a table to sit down, and greeted Xiao Er to order food. The female player was very excited, she was curious about everything she read, and her voice was not too loud, not a novel: "I didn't expect to really wear ancient times, it's just like reading a novel, it's quite fun. Xiaodan, don't think about it, you'll be safe when you come here. , let's just travel, we will definitely go back."
The girl named Xiaodan turned pale and panicked, and did not answer.
"Don't think about it too much. I guess you were wrong last night. Even if there are really dirty things, they are not afraid of Brother Hao." The girl said crisply, and when she looked up, she saw that Xiao Er had been staring at her. Jiaoqiao and Cuisheng said: "What are you looking at, I haven't seen it before."
Little Er hurriedly lowered his head, and the male player who ordered the food said, "That's all, I'm hungry if I serve it early."
"Good guest officer." Xiao Er's attitude was very respectful.
The pretty girl player smiled and said, "Brother Hao, where are we going this afternoon? It's pretty fun here, but everyone sees us as annoying."
"Check the clues again, go back early in the afternoon, I want to go to the mourning hall to see." Brother Hao said.
The female player named Xiaodan heard that she was in poor condition, shook her head and said, "I'm not going, I'm afraid I don't want to go."
"I'm not going either. What is there to worship in the hall of the dead? It's gloomy," said the pretty girl.
"Okay, then you can go back and take a rest. Let's go and have a look."
The five of them chatted and didn't notice other people sitting in the store. After a while, the dishes came up, and the pretty female players commented one by one, "The taste is okay, but it's not as rich in seasonings as ours. I think it's a bit bad like this."
Xiao Er nodded and said, "The guest officer is from the capital and has a lot of knowledge. Please forgive me for the poor reception in the shop."
"It's okay, it's okay, I just said, you go down."
A table by the window.
Zhu Sui whispered, "The one named Xiaodan ran into the ghost at night."
"I see." Chen Caixing nodded, touched Xiaojiu's head, and said, "No hurry, eat slowly."
Why isn't Zhu Sui in a hurry? They were almost done eating, but they didn't ask much. The four of them ate their meals slowly and didn't chat much. They kept listening to the five-player player's table talking. From the chat, they could tell that two men were experienced, and the other three, two women and one man were both. For novice players, the ones who talk the most are the pretty girl and the experienced brother Hao.
A total of seven people lived in Ningshenyuan. In addition to five people, there were two other people. They listened to the chatter of the charming girl. The other two were also newcomers, but they did not form a team with them, and locked themselves in the room and did not go out.
Thirteen players, five newcomers.
"There are so many veterans." Zhu Sui said with a frown.
Chen Caixing looked at Zhu Sui and said faintly, "No one told you, don't say the word "old" in front of girls, I'm still a cute newbie."
Zhu Sui:…
I believe in you.
But he didn't dare to complain.
The meal was fast over there, and the veteran brother Hao had to check out the bill and leave. The pretty girl said that she was in a hurry and didn't eat well. Brother Hao reluctantly smiled and said, "You go back to the house to eat, and you didn't find out anything in the morning, so you can't delay. time."
"Okay, listen to Brother Hao." The pretty girl agreed quickly.
The five people went downstairs, and as the footsteps went away, the guests on the second floor who had been chatting in a low voice were boiling.
"The five people just came from the capital? The masters from the Holy Master are really different. I heard it yesterday and didn't believe it. You see, the women have short hair."
"What kind of style! What kind of style!"
"Master, unlike us, don't be angry, don't be angry."
"Mrs. Zhu is still deeply favored by the Holy One. My filial piety has been away for more than a month, and there is an imperial decree as a gift."
"This is a happy event, a big happy event."
Different high-level people from all over the capital aroused the interest of the diners to talk, without asking questions, they discussed the affairs of the Zhu family at will. The most talked about thing in the Zhu family recently is that the sage issued an imperial decree to honor the filial nanny, and the Zhu family opened the mourning hall to hold happy funerals. By the way, Mrs. Zhu praised Mrs. Zhu's strictness in running the family and being charitable, or praising the filial nanny who was kind and virtuous.
Zhu Sui listened to the gossip of the Zhu family, and said with admiration, "Sister Yuan is a bull."
"Basic."
However, most of what they said was heard. There are only two points. Zhu Caiwen, the prodigy of the Zhu family, was seriously ill and was afflicted by the wind and cold. When Xiao Niang was buried a month ago, Zhu Caiwen was thin and withered. The second is the location of the filial piety's grave. Because of the imperial decree, a chastity archway was being built at the ancestral burial site of the Zhu family. A visitor happened to know someone who was rushing to build the archway and said something strange.
"This archway was originally built, but it suddenly collapsed when the plaque was hung. The Niu family's leg was almost crushed. You can't blame it."
"It is estimated that the feng shui day was not chosen well."
I heard almost the same, settled the bill, it was still early, but if I went back and forth to the ancestral tomb of the Zhu family for two hours, it would be too late to come back. Also rent a carriage. He could only go back to Zhu Mansion first. Chen Caixing planned to go to the Houzhai and find the yard where Xiao Niang once lived to see the situation.
The four entered the Zhu Mansion, and just saw the two veterans of Brother Hao coming out from the direction of the mourning hall.
Chen Caixing and Xiao Jiu went around to the door leading to the inner house. When Wang's mother saw Chen Caixing, she immediately said, "Lock and lock!"
"Youth time has passed?" Chen Caixing asked, blocking the door.
The maids looked at Mama Wang in embarrassment, and Mama Wang said with a smile, "It's not over yet, but the sun is coming soon."
"Then I can go in."
"But the lord is in. If the door is locked, you can't get out."
Chen Caixing said with a smile: "It's good to be in a relationship, the old lady and I hit it off, and we can just chat for one night."
Mother Wang's face twitched, but she couldn't stop it. She was hesitating to say something, but Chen Caixing let go, "Forget it, then I'll come back tomorrow morning."
"Thank you for your understanding, you should go back earlier, it's getting late."
In fact, the sky was still bright, because it was February and March, it was dark early, and it was five o'clock in the afternoon just after the unitary time.
The two walked no more than two steps, and the door slammed shut, and through the door, Mama Wang could be heard urging the lock to be locked.
"Sister, why don't you go in?"
"Go in now, there are too many eyeliners, so go in tomorrow when no one is there." Chen Caixing didn't say, he wanted to know whether Xiaomei's petrochemical sight had any effect on women.
I have a bad feeling in my heart.
As soon as I walked to the stone path in the bamboo forest, I heard screams, calling Xiaodan Xiaodan.
"Go and have a look."
Chen Caixing took Xiao Jiu to Jingshen Garden. As soon as he entered, he smelled a bloody smell. A group of people surrounded the entrance of the main room, and all the players in the courtyard came out.
"I-I didn't touch her, really, she fell to the ground suddenly."
"Save people, Brother Hao save Xiaodan, she, she's not dead yet." The pretty girl said with a pale face.
not dead
Chen Caixing walked through the crowd to the door of the main room. The female player named Xiaodan was indeed not dead, but no one dared to come forward to save her.
Xiaodan fell to the ground and kept vomiting blood, a lot of blood, and there was a pool of bright red blood on the ground. Xiaodan was still vomiting, clutching her stomach with both hands, her face struggling with pain. There was blood oozing from his abdomen while he was wearing clothes, and his flesh was blurred after a while.
Chen Caixing never knew that ordinary humans could tear open their clothes with their bare hands and tear their stomachs to pieces.
But this scene did happen.
None of the players spoke, and the entire yard was silent and filled with the smell of blood. Chen Caixing was close, pressing the discomfort in his stomach, and smelled a faint damp smell in the strong bloody smell.
The dizzy blood spread on the ground, mixed with water, and Xiaodan could vaguely see something in his rotten stomach.
"It's a stone."
Zhu Sui didn't know when he came over, so he stood at the door and said.
In fact, there are aquatic plants, a very short green one. Chen Caixing didn't say anything when he saw it. What he was thinking about, he took Xiaojiu to leave the door first, sat on the stone bench in the yard, and asked, "Are you afraid?"
"I'm a little scared, sister, hug me." Yuan Jiuwan's little head plunged into Chen Caixing's arms.
Xiao Jiu's body has always been full of firepower, and Chen Caixing hugged Xiao Jiu's small body, it was hot, and the coldness of the strange scene just now dispelled a lot.
It didn't take long for the housekeeper to arrive with his servants, and when he saw the corpses, they all turned pale with fright and swayed their bodies. The housekeeper dared to shout loudly: "What are you still doing, the monthly money will add one or two silver to each of you, so don't hurry up."
The servants stepped forward to clean up tremblingly, and quickly lifted the corpse on the ground and wiped the blood, but there was too much blood, and the cracks in the floor penetrated.
When passing the yard, there was a sudden grunt and something fell out of Xiaodan's body.
It is a sharp and uneven stone, large and small, packed with a belly.
"Dad, yes, it's filial piety—"
"What is small, hurry up and go out, don't dirty the eyes of adults." The housekeeper kicked his son, bent over and said: "This adult is not accustomed to the soil and water, everyone, don't worry, the villain will bury her. of."
Players are still stuck in the eerie death of newcomers, with no one to speak.
"Wait." Chen Caixing stopped and asked, "How did Xiao Niang seek death?"
The housekeeper said quickly: "Our second wife has a deep love for the deceased second young master, and she hanged herself in the room. Ladies and gentlemen, the villain is busy first." After that, he left in a hurry with the little servant.
As soon as the outsiders left, the charming new girl at noon was already looking like she was about to collapse, and she said tremblingly: "Hao, Hao, you are not just talking about games, how can people die, why do people die, Xiao, Xiaodan, she just Sitting right next to me to eat, why did it suddenly disappear."
"Of course ghost games will kill people." Brother Hao said impatiently with a calm face.
The pretty girl suddenly looks like a delicate flower that has been beaten by frost. She has seen a terrifying and bloody scene, and she will never show off with the little pride of modern people like today's noon.
It got dark.
Chen Caixing and the four returned to Ningxiangyuan. On the way, Zhu Sui said, "I think the housekeeper is lying?"
"It's too fast, like an excuse to practice." Lin Xin replied.
Zhu Sui said happily, "You can see it too, but how did Xiao Niang die? Go ask someone outside tomorrow."
"It's useless." Chen Caixing said: "The people of Zhu's residence are tight, and there are not many people who know the secret. They claim to have hanged themselves and buried the coffin. Except for the Zhu residence, no outsiders will know the truth."
When Zhu Sui thought it was true, he couldn't help but have a headache, "Then what should I do? The servants in this mansion are too strict, and I can't even put money in."
"The rough servants and girls outside won't know that it's too secretive, and we can't get in in the inner courtyard." Lin Xinxin.
Chen Caixing listened to the conversation between the two, "It's easy to do, just find a place where there is no one else and give Butler Zhu a sack and a meal."
"Is it really like this? It's not good to hit the NPC." Zhu Sui's face burst.
Chen Caixing smiled: "What do you think?" He led Xiao Jiu back to the room.
The maids had already learned that someone had died in the yard next door, and they were about to go out after serving the food quietly and swiftly.
"Wait a minute, go and call the housekeeper over." Chen Caixing called the maid, "Just say I have something to do."
"Yes."
The food tasted good, but he just died, Chen Caixing had no appetite, and when he recovered, he found that he had eaten two bowls of rice and two bowls of soup, and most of the dishes had gone into his stomach.
…
Is he a pig! So edible!
"Sister, you two are eating now, it's not much at all, it's fine." Yuan Jiuwan said with big eyes.
Chen Caixing: …
Nine, you really don't have to be so real in the movie, there's no Oscar.
"Where did you hear this, what two people—" He heard footsteps outside, and said calmly, "Sister and the baby in your belly are connected to you, a total of three people."
'Dong dong' the door knocked.
The butler's voice: "Sir, I heard that you are looking for me?"
"Come in." Chen Caixing looked at the butler in front of him, who was stocky in his forties or fifty years old. He didn't expect that the first user of his Mary Sue props would be this one. The debut show also wants to give it to a handsome man with big breasts, alas, it's a pity."
90,000 yuan: …
The housekeeper was horrified and stumbled: "Big, lord?"
"I know I'm very big, so I don't need to stress." Chen Caixing waved his hand, and used the Mary Sue props without waiting for the housekeeper to say anything.
In the room with the warm light of the oil lamp, the old butler who was trembling one second ago, the next second his eyes burst into hot light, looking at Chen Caixing with love and affection.
Eyes are going blind.
Chen Caixing: … The two bowls of rice I just ate are a bit too much.
"How did Xiao Niang die? Who killed it?"
The old housekeeper looked at Chen Caixing with numb eyes, and said with sincerity, "Xiao Niang died in the lake. When she found it, she was in Suxin Lake in the backyard. I don't know who killed it."
"Who in the manor knows?"
"The batch of maids and old ladies who were found were sold with their tongues pulled out. Only me, my son, the old lady and Wang's mother know."
"Zhu Wencai doesn't know?"
The housekeeper thought for a while and said, "I don't know, the young master probably didn't know that he didn't come out."
"Since he died by throwing himself into the lake, why does the manor say he committed suicide?" Since it was all suicide, why make up a lie
The housekeeper hesitantly said: "There is a dead baby in the lake with blood and flesh already formed. The filial mother's body was salvaged and her stomach was empty. The old lady thought it was not good, so she said that the filial mother hanged herself and died with the second young master."
Chen Caixing thought of the stones and water plants in Xiaodan's stomach, and now it has been confirmed.
In mythology, Medusa died and became two children in her blood.
In today's world, filial piety is not a demon, and it is impossible for two children to jump out of her blood, but it is normal to have children when you have a relationship with people.
"Is the baby salvaged and buried?" Chen Caixing asked with a frown.
The housekeeper shook his head, his face full of fear, but his eyes were fascinated with affection, and said: "I didn't catch it, and it clearly surfaced. The old lady asked it to be picked up, but as soon as someone went, the thing sank, and I couldn't find it no matter how I looked for it. arrive."
"No one in the house saw that Xiao Niang was pregnant?" Since the child has already formed, it is not a short time.
"Xiao Niang's personal maid is hiding it. In winter, Xiao Niang doesn't dare to eat too much because she wears thick clothes... Hey, why am I here." The housekeeper's eyes came out from the hot state, with confusion, and when he remembered it, he politely said: "Sir, you are looking for me. What's up?"
Three minutes have passed, and it seems that after the props are used, the other party has lost that memory.
Chen Caixing said casually: "I didn't bring a change of clothes when I came here. You can help me prepare a few sets of skirts and jewelry. They should be finer and more beautiful, and the colors should not be old-fashioned. The embroidery style is best and fashionable. Delicate and unbearable. Remember?"
The corner of the butler's mouth twitched, "Remember."
"Go ahead."
Chen Caixing waved his hand, and the housekeeper stepped back and closed the door.
Chen Caixing, who had no nightlife, planned to go to bed early with Xiaojiu, lying on the bed and muttering: "Three minutes is too short, if I meet the big chest muscles, how can it be enough." Sigh.
Yuan Jiuwan was complacent, with a dazed expression on his face, he brought private goods to himself and said, "What's wrong with my sister?"
"Pectoral muscles, not jiji." Chen Caixing touched his chest and gave Xiaojiu a popular science, "Here, it is the pectoral muscles that have been trained."
Yuan Jiuwan touched Chen Caixing's chest with his little hand, smiled cutely and said, "Sister's chest muscles."
"Haha, elder sister doesn't have pectoral muscles." Chen Caixing corrected Xiaojiu, "This is the chest. My elder sister hasn't practiced it yet." Speaking of this, thinking of his four-pack abs, he looked down at his bulging belly and came here. gas!
I don't know if I ate too much dinner, and my stomach is a little bigger than the first time I entered the game world.
"Xiao Jiu, is my sister's belly getting bigger?"
Yuan Jiuwan thought that it would not only be big, but also move, but he didn't dare to say anything. Chen Caixing didn't hear the answer and didn't care. It was just a small talk. When the sleepiness came up, he blew the oil lamp and fell asleep with Xiao Jiu in his arms.
The night is quiet and mysterious.
A black head was lying on the edge of the white paper-pasted window, clinging to the window paper, the silver moonlight shone through the edge, rustling, and the paper-paste window pierced two small holes , two scarlet lights stared at the sleeping back on the bed.
In the middle of the night, Chen Caixing slept colder and colder, especially behind his back, he pulled the quilt up and down with one hand, and his arms were also cold as if he was holding a stone, cold, and he slept in a daze without opening his eyes and muttered: "Xiao Jiu, you Why don't you cover the quilt, it's not cold—"
The brain was instantly awake, and the tentacles in his arms were greasy and wet, like water but not the texture, not Xiao Jiu at all.
Chen Caixing thought of the bloody dead baby disappearing in the lake, when a gust of wind blew past his back.
Xiao Niang is here.
Standing right behind him, he held the dead baby in his arms.
Chen Caixing's body was stiff, his hands and feet were cold, and his eyes were tightly closed.
A faint female voice sounded from behind: "Don't look at how cute my baby is, look at him, he likes you so much, he is still laughing in your arms."
The room was so quiet that Chen Caixing's breathing could be heard.
"Baby, you kiss her, you let her see you." The female voice got closer and closer, and seemed to stick to the base of his ear.
Goosebumps rose, Chen Caixing noticed that the little thing in his arms was crawling along his face, the cold and slippery traces dragged all the way, and two cold and sticky little hands were touching his cheeks, Nose breathing is a thick stench.
"Baby is doing well, you kiss her and let her see you." The female voice encouraged the baby with a smile.
The bloody baby slowly approached, Chen Caixing's hand in the quilt touched the close-fitting talisman paper, it was clean without any burning sensation, he thought of something and said slowly: "It's not a monkey, the child is so young, don't be a mother. Toss, don't you feel bad?"
There was a female voice in the ear, and then there was a negative sound of grinding teeth: "Then open your eyes and look at me, look at me, look at me."
"Sister, I'm really not interested in women, so I won't watch it." Chen Caixing closed his eyes tightly and said, "Xiao Niang, we are both women and mothers, you have to bear with my child without a mother - of course you bear with me I can't bear it either. If you don't want to leave, then we can just chat. Let me tell you first, I've recently fallen in love with a handsome guy with a great body, but I can't find anyone, alas. What about you? What kind of man do you like? "
The female voice suddenly became furious and shouted sharply: "Men are all beasts, he killed me, why did he do this to me, why!"
Chen Caixing noticed that the neck was cold and sharp. It was Xiao Niang who made a move. The talisman paper in her hand was slightly hot, but it calmed down in an instant. The room was quiet for a while, and there was no sound at all.
"Sister? Xiao Niang? Are you gone?"
No one answered. Chen Caixing didn't dare to open his eyes. After a while, there was an unwilling voice in the room, and it became quiet again.
Chen Caixing: …
There is no sincerity, you have to go and say something, and you want to deceive him.
The quilt was as cold as an ice cellar. Chen Caixing forced himself to think about it and wanted to vomit. The feeling of fear gradually disappeared, and the enthusiasm came up. It was Xiao Jiu who was warm and soft in his arms. Chen Caixing couldn't help but squeeze it gently.
"elder sister?"
Xiao Jiu's drowsy voice.
Chen Caixing breathed a sigh of relief, smiled and said, "It's okay to sleep."
Early the next morning, the room was lit, and Chen Caixing took out the talisman paper he was holding.
The corner of the talisman paper has turned black, only a little bit.
It should have been burned when Xiao Niang touched his neck. Why didn't the dead baby burn in his arms
In the end, Chen Caixing attributed this to the evil spirits of ghosts.
After a while there was a knock on the door, Chen Caixing put away the talisman and called in, four maids came in, one carrying hot water for washing. The two at the back were carrying a small box, next to a big maid dressed up and said, "Sir, here are the clothes and jewelry you want, they are all new."
"You take a set and I'll try it. Can you comb your hair?"
Chen Caixing sat up, and Xiao Jiu also woke up in a daze. After the two washed up, the eldest maid simply combed Chen Caixing's hair into a bun, put on the jewelry, and then went down.
After such a delay, when Chen Caixing and Xiao Jiu arrived in the main room, the couple in the yard, a man and a woman, had already used up. Only Zhu Sui and Lin Xin were left to say hello. Chen Caixing took a mouthful of porridge and suddenly said, "Xiao Niang was pregnant and died in the lake, and her stomach burst open and the child sank into the lake."
Zhu Sui was still eating eggs, but she didn't choke, and said in shock, "Sister Yuan, how did you know?"
"Butler Zhu said it."
"Yuan, Sister Yuan, are you really going to put a sack for Butler Zhu?!"
Chen Caixing had a big smile on his face, "Yeah, those who are disobedient have to be put in sacks, and they have to be thrown into the lake to sink..." He looked at Zhu Sui with a faint look of malice, "Are you obedient?"
"..." Zhu Sui was about to cry, hugging Lin Xin's arm, "Is Sister Yuan being overtaken by a ghost?" Then she nodded hurriedly: "Listen, I'm all obedient."
