Outside Renshui Yizhuang, the wind and rain are still there.
And at this moment... a group of red-clothed servants carried the red coffin high up. At least fifteen servants in red surrounded the coffin, and Xiahou Tailan sat in the front sedan chair.
Most of the servants did not hold umbrellas. However, in this wind and rain, no one complained, and everyone was calm.
"You, follow Miss Tailan's sedan chair and follow her instructions. Remember... Be sure to follow closely."
This is Xiahou Jiaoyan's instruction to Xuanyin.
And Xuanyin is also very clear that she must not easily disobey this order.
Following behind the red sedan chair, a maid held an umbrella for her. A team, start marching.
And in the process... there were servants in red, playing dirges and music in front, and someone beside them shouted: "It's a good journey... It's a good journey... Don't be nostalgic, go back early..."
Then... the red-clothed servants began to sway a lot of ghost money into the sky!
Dark money!
One of them flew on the umbrella in front, and Xuanyin saw... These ghost bills are completely different from the types that are very common in the funeral industry nowadays. They are all ghost bills similar to ancient bank notes, and There is also the exact name of the bank account that can be exchanged.
Made... so exquisite!
"Miss," said the girl who was holding an umbrella behind her, but who had already been drenched, "Don't go pick up those banknotes from the underworld."
"A bank note from hell?"
"Yes."
Ordinary people... would they say that? Listening to her, it seems that it is... a coin that can really be used in the underworld!
"Hell... Is there really... a hell?"
The girl said: "I don't know... but, there should be..."
The team still marches on.
Ayane began to realize something. This team is completely directed by Xiahou Tailan. Once reaching some fork in the road, Xiahou Tailan stretched out a hand from the sedan chair, and then indicated the route. Then, the person carrying the sedan chair will follow her instructions.
Isn't that weird
Since the task of transporting this coffin is so important, how could they not know the route at all in advance? It's fine if the people who separated the family didn't know about it, but these people carrying the sedan chairs are all servants of the Zong family! Could it be that only the Zong family allowed to know the route? But, even so, as long as you walk once, won't you remember the route? It is impossible to walk once and forget how to walk...
At this moment, Xuanyin's heart suddenly trembled.
Walked once... but still can't remember the route...
She realized one thing. Before, she came to Renshui Yizhuang according to the instructions on that map. But... now she can't remember at all what route she took to arrive at Renshui Yizhuang.
Now... as well...
Looking at the sedan chair, she suddenly had an association.
At this time, Xiahou Tailan who was sitting there, could it be... that he also had a map? Is she now... pointing the route on the map
In this way, she suddenly realized that she herself no longer remembered! I don't remember what route I took to get here from Renshui Yizhuang!
"That... what do you call it?" She asked the girl holding the umbrella for her.
"Ninety-nine."
"Ninety-nine... Do you still remember the route just now?"
Jiujiu was silent for a few seconds, as if he felt very abrupt about this question, and then replied: "How can we servants have the right to know the route to Xiahou's family's tomb?"
"No... that's not what it means, you, don't you remember what route you took just now?"
"I don't know... about Xiahou's family, we don't need to ask anything, that's all."
These servants who don't have their own names and are no different from puppets make Xuanyin feel creepy. They seem to have no ego at all, but puppets at the mercy of the Xiahou family.
map…
She's determined. There is a map in Xiahou Tailan's hand!
As time went by, she began to realize that the surroundings became more and more desolate. Originally, some weeds could still be seen on the ground, but now even the weeds are gone. On the ground, there is not even a single stone, it seems that everything has been weathered into sand.
At this moment, suddenly...
"boom"!
A servant in red fell to the ground!
Xuanyin looked at him in surprise, and just about to stop, Jiujiu immediately said: "Miss Xuanyin, don't look back. From now on, no matter what you see, don't stop and look back."
"That person... fainted on the ground?"
"If you can't move on, we don't need to worry about him."
"But... obviously someone fell down?"
"Miss Xuanyin... If you go to see him now, the team will never stop. Once you leave the team... you will be 'lost' forever."
"get lost?"
"Yes." Ninety-Nine explained very conscientiously: "I heard that there are some roads in Minshan, if there is no 'map', one will be completely 'lost' and never find the correct road. "
"Even if you really get lost, if you spend some time, you will always..."
"It's useless. There were some red-clothed servants who did similar things before, but... they all got lost without exception. Then... I never saw them again. It seems... they are no longer in Minshan, or the world anywhere."
This immediately made Xuanyin feel terrified.
"So... we must follow the Xiahou family who has a map... Otherwise, we will be completely lost."
"Map"... what kind of weird thing is it? Without a map, you can't take the right route and get lost forever
And at this moment, a servant in red who was carrying the coffin suddenly fell down too! However, a red-clothed servant next to him rushed up to pick up the coffin at a fast speed, and the servant immediately fell to the ground, and his identity was unknown. And no one paid attention to that servant in red, as if he didn't exist!
It was only then that Xuanyin realized...there were so many servants around the coffin, not only to protect the coffin, but also to replace the servants who would fall down at any time!
For Xiahou's family, the lives of these servants are even worse than dogs! Feel free to throw it away!
But what's more frightening than this is... the other servants also take it for granted, and take it for granted! Why on earth do they have such deep servility towards the Xiahou family? Even the most obedient slaves would not be able to reach their level!
"Ninety-nine...you...won't you hold an umbrella with me?"
"Miss Xuanyin... I'm just a servant, how can I share the same umbrella with you?"
That robot-like expression made Xuanyin shudder when he said these words woodenly.
As the team moved forward, more and more people fell down.
Right now...
"Plop"!
Ninety-nine, fall from Xuanyin's side! Umbrella fell to the ground weakly, and Jiujiu's eyes became lifeless and dull, as if his soul had been sucked away!
But at this time, another girl in red behind her quickly ran over, picked up the umbrella again, and because she moved so fast, her foot actually stepped on Jiujiu's jaw!
"Sorry, miss, I will hold the umbrella for you instead of her."
The process... the transition was so natural. Jiujiu, who fell on the ground, was completely discarded like garbage, and no one gave her a second look!
Xuanyin pushed the girl in front of her away, and roared at her: "She is alone! What are you doing!"
Then she quickly lifted Jiujiu up on the ground, shook her and said, "Ninety-nine! Ninety-nine!"
The girl had been holding an umbrella for her all the way, and she was drenched by the rain at this moment, and she had already caught a bad cold if she was not in good health. How could she watch her fall to the ground and ignore her
However, Jiujiu didn't respond at all, her eyes were extremely blank, and she didn't respond to Xuanyin's call!
"Stop! Miss Tailan!" She shouted to the red sedan chair in front of her: "Stop!"
However, everyone along the way seemed to have become deaf, walking straight like this, without any stagnation. And a red-clothed servant in front came, and was about to step on Jiujiu!
"Go around for me! Don't you see anyone here? Miss Tailan, please stop! It's okay to stop for a while!"
But... it's useless.
The red sedan chair in front... didn't even respond at all!
At this time, Jiao Yan quickly ran over and pulled Xuanyin up!
"Are you crazy? If you fall behind... you'll be completely 'lost' and I won't be able to save you!"
"Stop!" Xuanyin yelled hysterically, "Stop quickly!"
A bolt of lightning flashed across the sky, as if the sky... was completely split in half!
