The uncle borrowed some merits, and the princess drew the talisman fiercely

"Miss, is there a dead person hiding here?"

Qing Bao subconsciously took a step forward, trying to block Lu Zhaoling behind him.

Qingyin also stretched out her hand to block Lu Zhaoling, and the two maids made gestures to protect her.

Lu Zhaoling found it both funny and heartwarming.

In fact, all her fellow apprentices knew that she was the most capable, so whenever something happened, they would hide behind her.

She felt quite fresh to be protected like a weak woman.

But no matter how new it was, Lu Zhaoling was not prepared to let the two maids stand in front of her.

She pulled gently, took a step forward, and protected them behind her.

"Have you forgotten what those two officers looked like just now? Let me handle this kind of thing."

Qingyin and Qingbao really felt that Lu Zhaoling was the best master in the world.

There was obviously danger. Even if she had the ability, most people would ask their subordinates to check it out first just in case. But Lu Zhaoling wanted to protect them.

How could a master protect his slave? But this is what happened to them!

"Miss, be careful."

"Ah."

Lu Zhaoling walked forward and put his hand against the door.

Qingyin and Qingbao were both nervous.

They thought Lu Zhaoling would push the door open directly, but Lu Zhaoling just put his hand on the door, as if he was feeling something.

For a moment, Qingyin and Qingbao didn't dare to ask.

Suddenly, there was a "squeak".

They didn't see Lu Zhaoling push the door, but the door suddenly opened a crack.

Qingyin and Qingbao were startled and saw that the talisman stuck on the crack of the door was gently peeled off as if by an invisible hand.

The old, faded talisman fluttered lightly to the ground.

The door opened a little further inward, until there was enough space for an arm to fit through. It was pitch dark inside and nothing could be seen.

Qingyin and Qingbao held their breath. For some reason, they were afraid that a bony claw would suddenly stretch out from the crack in the door and grab the young lady.

They were even ready to rush over and hug Lu Zhaoling at any time.

But at this moment, Lu Zhaoling pushed the door open with force.

The door is wide open.

When the light shone in, I could see a bed opposite the door at a glance.

The bed was hung with red gauze and was lowered. On the wooden couch beside the bed were three pairs of shoes neatly arranged. They were satin embroidered shoes, one pair of red, one pair of brocade blue, and one pair of white with purple flowers.

As soon as the door opened, they saw this scene and Qingyin and Qingbao's hair stood on end.

This house has become dilapidated, and there was a talisman pasted on the door, so why are there three pairs of shoes neatly placed next to the bed?

The room was quiet. There was a dressing table next to the bed, made of rosewood with flowers carved on it. In the middle was a bronze mirror, which was obviously covered with a layer of dust.

There is a copper candlestick on each side, with a half-burned red candle dripping with candle tears.

There was also a hairpin, a comb, and a plum vase on the table with two dried branches in it.

Everything was neatly arranged, and there was a Luohan bed next to it.

On the other side, there was a locked low cabinet, a copper washbasin on the washstand, and a three-legged charcoal stove.

The windows were shut and bolted from the inside.

There is a curtain hanging next to the charcoal stove, which should lead to the small room.

Some people's small inner rooms are used to place bathtubs and chamber pots.

Some small inner rooms are larger and contain sundries, clothing racks, and the like.

There is a curtain hanging here now, so you can't really see it.

At least it's clear from the outside.

No matter how you look at it, I don't think such a room needs to be covered with talisman paper.

Lu Zhaoling was just about to step in when Lin Rong came over with a few people.

"Miss Lu Er."

Lu Zhaoling stopped and looked back.

"Did you find anything?"

"No, there's nothing wrong with the front hall, the kitchen, and the servants' quarters. If there's anything strange, it's that they're not empty. They have everything they need. It doesn't look like they've just moved."

This is what Lin Rong found strange.

"Even the kitchen cabinets still have a lot of food and dry goods stored, and the firewood room is also stacked with a lot of firewood. The water room next to the front hall has tea leaves, tea sets, charcoal stoves, everything, and even some sealed jars. I've seen them, and they look like stored snow water."

Those are the ones that the sophisticated people stay behind to prepare tea.

"In the servants' room, the mattress and pillows were still on the bed. Everything hadn't been put away, as if it was about to be moved or thrown away."

A servant of the Sun family also said, "We found a cellar, which also contains a lot of fruits and grains."

So, if we really want to move, shouldn’t we move these things too?

Lu Zhaoling also found it very strange.

"Nothing else?"

"No."

Lin Rong's gaze has also fallen on the room in front of him.

He also saw the three pairs of shoes and narrowed his eyes slightly. "The room that Miss Lu Er found is a bit strange."

As soon as he finished saying this, he saw the old talisman on the ground and immediately tensed up.

If there is a talisman, then something is obviously wrong.

"I was just about to go in and take a look." Lu Zhaoling said.

Lin Rong came over and said, "Let me go in with you."

Although Lu Zhaoling was very capable, he always felt that with so many people here, it was somewhat inappropriate to let a weak woman like her take the lead.

Lu Zhaoling glanced at him but did not refuse.

"I see that Lord Lin has a rosy complexion and is not unlucky. It's OK."

Lin Rong looks good now.

I don't know if it's because he held this official position that his aura has improved, but evil spirits are gradually gathering around him. When there's more evil spirits, evil spirits will be afraid of him wherever he goes.

This is also the ability of a high-ranking official, like Lin Rong, who is in charge of punishment and is upright and incorruptible, so he will have some ability.

But even so, Lu Zhaoling entered the door first.

The others were outside watching nervously.

Lin Rong hurriedly followed.

As soon as he entered the door, Lu Zhaoling smelled a strong rotten smell.

She walked straight towards the big bed.

Lin Rong followed immediately.

He couldn't help but marvel at Lu Zhaoling's courage. Most girls would not dare to lift the red curtain of the bed after seeing such a situation.

But Lu Zhaoling's face remained calm. She walked to the bed and reached out to draw open the curtains.

Lin Rong took a look and his pupils shrank.

He almost cried out in surprise, and his heart stopped for a moment.

The smell of decay becomes stronger.

There were three people lying side by side on the bed.

Three women in red.

Shriveled, with dry skin and staring eyes.

When Lin Rong took a quick look, he even felt that he was making eye contact with the three of them.

His entire scalp was tingling.

Lu Zhaoling had taken out a purification talisman in his other hand at some point, and waved it on the bed, and it began to burn.

Then she drew the bed curtain to the hook beside her.
