"Then why did Qingxing come to the third lady's yard to dig dirt?" Wu Liuyun asked with a smile on his face.
Hearing what she said, the expressions of everyone around her were either panic, anger, or suspicion. But only Wu Sheyue still looked calm.
Bai Lian cried at a loss: "I, I really don't know. She suddenly rushed in, and she was a little crazy. She grabbed the shovel in the flower garden and jumped in and started digging... I don't know why! She just As if she was possessed by a demon, she ignored me when I called her. She just kept digging, but she died suddenly without even digging her twice... "
Meng Ruxue let go of Bai Lian, pointed at Wu Sheyue's nose and cried: "Taoist Priest! I have told you that she is a goblin! You should believe it now! How could a born fool suddenly get better? She He must be possessed by the third lady! How could Qingxing die so inexplicably!"
Wu Sheyue nodded with sudden realization. No wonder Meng Ruxue had to go to Xiangshan to pray for blessings and invite people in person. She probably wanted to bribe a Taoist priest with money, but the real Taoist monk in Xiangshan didn't appreciate it. So she told people about the "odd things" about the Prime Minister's Mansion on the road. She said she wanted to let people know about the Prime Minister's Mansion, but in fact she was still demonizing herself.
Meng Ruxue must have truly believed that Wu Sheyue was a demon, and her reaction was exciting and real.
The Taoist priest didn't seem to know how to respond to Meng Ruxue, he frowned with hesitation on his face.
Meng Ruxue turned around and knelt in the flower bed, grabbing Qingxing's lapel and crying: "Qingxing! You, why did you get into the hands of the bad guy! If she kills you today, she may not know who she will kill tomorrow! This The demon is really too powerful, and after the Taoist priest leaves, the Prime Minister’s Mansion will be doomed!”
Sure enough, the old lady's face changed drastically after hearing this. She nervously grabbed the Taoist priest and asked, "Taoist priest! Is there really a demon in my granddaughter?! Yes, that's right! She once carved a wooden bird for me, and the wooden bird turned out to be... It can fly! Is that a witchcraft? I've been playing with it every day for the past few days, so nothing will happen if I keep that thing next to me!"
The other people naturally gloated after hearing this, but Wu Sheyue shouted "Grandma!" in shock and anger, her eyes filled with disbelief.
Although the relationship between Wu Sheyue and the old lady is not pure, Wu Sheyue at least respects her as an elder! The old lady has indeed been helpful to her, so she is willing to work hard to make something good to make the old lady happy.
As a result... Wu Sheyue now really sees through this group of people. When she was happy to be praised, she said that it was a supernatural being. Although something had happened but nothing had been found out yet, she first suspected that it was a monster. This contrast is really ironic. It was a waste of her efforts.
The Taoist priest was a little embarrassed, "I really can't find the evil ghost. Maybe my ability is limited. Why don't you hire someone else, Madam?"
"Can-"
Jiang Qingxue stepped forward to comfort the old lady and said: "Mom, don't worry, we don't know what is under this flower bed! It turned out that Qingxing was so troubled that he had to dig it out and even lost his life. Let's lift up the soil and take a look. ! With so many people here, nothing will happen again."
Aunt Liu quickly agreed, "Yes, the Taoist priest is here, and the sky is bright and clear, what kind of monster dares to brave the wind!"
The old lady nodded repeatedly as she listened, "That's fine. I don't think you have any objection to that, Yue'er."
Wu Sheyue's face was expressionless. These people must have wanted to dig up her land for a long time. What other opinions could she have? "Of course I listen to my grandmother, but it's a pity that these flowers have to be plowed if they bloom well." ”
—
Wu Hantian immediately called three young men who knew how to do farm work to dig up the ground. At this stall, everyone sat on the stone chairs in the courtyard to rest and wait.
In such a palm-sized place, the crabapples were quickly eradicated, and the air was filled with the scent of crushed flowers.
One of the boys ran over and knelt on the ground and said, "Master, the ground has been plowed."
After hearing this, everyone looked over excitedly, especially Bai Lian who almost stood up. Aunt Meng couldn't help but took two steps over there, but Wu Jinghua was the only one who lowered his head and didn't dare to look. Wu Sheyue had a panoramic view of everything.
The old lady immediately asked: "Is there anything in it?"
"Go back to the old lady, there's nothing in it."
Wu Jinghua's face was full of surprise. She didn't dare to raise her eyes before, but now she immediately ran over to take a look.
The old lady was relieved when she heard it, but Jiang Qingxue didn't believe it, "Have you read it carefully?"
The young man pointed his fingers to the ground and assured, "Madam, we have plowed this land twice. We can grow crops here. There really is nothing buried."
Jiang Qingxue frowned and glared at Bai Lian.
"How is this possible?" Bai Lian also looked incredulous, no, that's not right... There are at least four dead bodies buried in this ground! She would watch regularly every night. There was no way Wu Sheyue could move away without her noticing!
Wu Sheyue suddenly asked her: "What are you talking about that is impossible?"
"I..." Bai Lian panicked. She stuttered for a long time and then defended as if she remembered: "I just saw, after Qingxing fell, there was something underneath... like it was pulling someone... Her hands were all... He was dragged down... As soon as I shouted, he was gone."
Meng Ruxue felt sorry for Qing Xing. She took a few steps back, knelt down in front of the old lady and cried, "Old lady, you have to make the decision for Qing Xing! Qing Xing is looking for something in the ground. Could it be that it’s hidden too deeply?”
Wu Jinghua also quickly said: "Then why not dig deeper and take a look?"
The boy tried his best to hide his dissatisfaction with Wu Jinghua, "We can't go down any further. We have climbed almost three feet, and the top is covered with soft red mud for planting flowers. We dug too deep, and below are the original stones in the yard. , how can it be dug?"
Wu Jinghua suddenly cried loudly in excitement: "How is this possible? Look carefully! It's not clear why Qingxing can't die!"
Seeing Wu Jinghua so excited, Wu Lixiang, who had been silent all the time, couldn't help pouring some oil on her, and said frivolously: "Yes, why else would Qingxing come here and die in this flower bed? Isn't this too weird?"
"Shut up, all of you!" Wu Hantian's head hurt from the noise from these people.
"Everyone." Everyone was shouting, and Wu Sheyue, who had been silent, finally spoke. Everyone's eyes fell on her quietly.
She pondered for a moment, and then said suspiciously: "This man died suddenly... Shouldn't we report it to the official first, ask the widower to do an autopsy, and then arrest the culprit?"
"..." Wu Hantian was stunned, his expression seemed as if someone had slapped him in the face.
Everyone looked at each other and seemed to suddenly realize in their hearts why they seemed to be collectively stupid just now, why they had to find a "ghost" to take the blame, and who was leading them by the nose!
At this time, Sisi led the doctor into the door and said: "Master, the doctor is here." (To be continued)
