Chapter 1743: Two Ghosts Calling the Door
Chapter 1743: Two Ghosts Calling the Door
Master Qiu stepped back in shock, his hind legs hitting the table with a loud clattering sound.
"Qiukeshi" walked slowly forward, and as he walked, he could smell a faint unpleasant smell on his body.
Mr. Qiu's face turned pale: "You, don't come over."
"You caused my death in vain, and you even wanted to dig up my body. You have such cruel hearts..."
Mr. Qiu didn't dare to look at him, he turned his face away and closed his eyes: "I just said that, I didn't really intend to do it. I won't dig, isn't it okay not to dig?"
"I died for your son. Where is he? Where is he..."
"He...he is not in Youcheng. He has already left. Don't look for him. Tell me what you wish for and I will do it."
"I will take good care of your mother and your sister."
Qiu Keshi's voice was angry: "Are you threatening me?"
Mr. Qiu waved his hands quickly: "No, absolutely not. How could I threaten you? You are our family's great benefactor. I can't thank you enough. How could I threaten you? I said this sincerely."
"You're talking nonsense! Where did you hide my relatives?"
As he spoke, he walked forward. Master Qiu was so frightened that he curled up into a corner.
"No, no, I just... I just put them in the shop. After a few days, I will follow the caravan to Shencheng and let them live a good life."
After he said that, he covered his head and face and stopped talking.
Not long after, the butler's voice was heard outside the door.
"Master, Master, are you okay?"
A glimmer of hope ignited in Master Qiu's heart: "Come, someone come!"
Soon, footsteps were heard and the butler came in quickly. He saw him huddled against the leg of the table and a lot of things on the table had fallen.
"Master, what's wrong with you?"
Mr. Qiu loosened his arms and looked around with caution and fear.
No one except the butler.
There was no "Qiuke Stone" that had frightened him just now.
"Master, come, I'll help you up."
Master Qiu swallowed his saliva and asked in a low voice: "When you came in, did you...see anyone else?"
The butler shook his head: "No, only you."
Mr. Qiu was terrified. Could it be that there really was a ghost?
The butler suddenly sniffed and frowned.
Mr. Qiu was very nervous just now and didn't notice it, but when he saw the butler sniffling, he also smelled it.
"What's that smell? Why..."
A bit smelly? Like the smell of a dead body!
Mr. Qiu was excited again.
……
Mrs. Qiu sat on the edge of the bed. She was very tired after a busy day.
After washing up and preparing to rest, I couldn't find my son's pillow.
Where did it go?
I asked several maids and servants, and they all said they hadn't seen him.
It’s weird.
She felt a little uneasy.
As soon as she blew out two lamps and the light dimmed, she asked the maids and servants to leave and prepare to rest.
Before I lay down, I felt someone lifting the curtain and walking into the inner room.
Through the bed curtain, she saw a vague outline. It was not a maid, but a man.
She was startled and quickly sat up. Just as she was about to ask who it was, she took a closer look and saw this figure...
Her mind exploded and she pulled back the bed curtain to take a closer look.
"son!"
She was surprised and happy. She had been begging Mr. Qiu to let her meet her son, but Mr. Qiu did not agree, saying that she had to wait until the New Year and that she would have to go to Shencheng or even outside the Great Wall.
I feel sad when I think about being separated from my son and the possibility that I won’t be able to see him even if he gets married and has children.
I'm so happy to see you suddenly now.
She quickly got out of bed, without even putting on her shoes, and ran over barefoot: "Son, why are you back at this time?"
"Didn't your father tell you not to come back?"
"Qiukeshi" doesn't speak.
Mrs. Qiu was surprised and nervous: "Why don't you say anything? What happened? Has anyone seen it?"
Qiu Keshi suddenly curled his lips and smiled: "Mother."
This smile seemed particularly strange in the dim light, and the voice was low and hoarse, not like Qiu Ke Shi's original voice.
Mrs. Qiu was startled.
There was a chill on the back of my neck.
"you……"
"Qiukeshi" took a step forward, and suddenly a large amount of blood gushed out from his chest, as if it would never stop flowing.
Mrs. Qiu's eyes widened, and without saying a word, she fell to the ground and fainted.
"Qiukeshi" took a look, hissed, and muttered: "Why did he faint? He hasn't said anything yet. He is too timid."
Suddenly he heard a whistle outside, and without further delay he left through the back window.
Go outside, and together with another "Qiukeshi", jump over the courtyard wall, go to the back alley, and meet up with Song Ping and Beibei.
"How is it?" Song Ping asked.
"Don't worry, I got some information," Qiu Keshi No. 1 said, "It turns out that the person who died in place of others really has evidence in the Qiu family's hands. He has a mother and a sister who work in the Qiu family's shop."
After saying that, several people looked at Qiu Ke Shi No. 2.
"I... I haven't asked anything yet, and Madam Qiu fainted. It's not my fault. Who knew she was so timid?"
Song Ping nodded: "Okay, this is important news, retreat!"
The silver ingots and gold ingots were all sent out of the palace, and Song Ping became the one who took the lead. The safety of the palace was of great importance, and he could not waste too much time here.
……
Yan Ruyu was not anxious in the cabin. She just treated it as a relaxing vacation. She entered the space with her consciousness, ate something, drank some water, read a book and took a nap.
Life is pretty good.
The abbot had originally planned to prepare a seafood dinner tonight, but he has to go back on his word.
Worried that Huo Changhe had nothing to eat outside, Yan Ruyu prepared some beef jerky, instant noodles, sausages and braised eggs, and asked the starling to fly back and forth several times.
At the same time, news was received from outside that Yinding and the secret guards were already in place.
It depends on whether we can catch a big fish tonight.
Yan Ruyu was talking to the abbot, asking whether Qiu Keshi and the mysterious man had made any moves.
The abbot said it was still the same as before and he hadn’t left.
As they were talking, the door of the room opened gently.
It was almost midnight, the moon was dark and the wind was strong. Yan Ruyu looked out from the space and saw two people coming.
The first move was very cautious, as if he was afraid of waking Yan Ruyu up, but his eyes and expression were resolute, as if he hated her to the core.
Yan Ruyu recognized her at first sight; it was Miss Su.
The person behind was wearing a mask and a black robe.
She whispered, "It's okay, don't worry. The abbot gave her a top-grade drug and added incense. It's a two-pronged approach. Without an antidote or twelve hours, she won't wake up."
Miss Su nodded: "That's great, this bitch, I..."
She rushed forward and tried to hit Yan Ruyu.
The mynah bird was resting beside Yan Ruyu's pillow with its little black eyes open.
It was really exhausted. It had flown several times to deliver things to Huo Changhe, and its claws were very sore.
Just after a short break, two more people came.
The guy in front even wants to hit Yan Ruyu. How can this be tolerated?
The starling stood up and flapped his shoulders: "Oh my!"
The sound came suddenly, like a human voice, yet very different from a human voice.
The shout frightened Miss Su.
