"Brother, there is no one here." The dead branches and leaves at the entrance of the cave were pushed aside, and the leading young man turned his head and said loudly.

"Neither here."

"Look carefully for me. The elder said that Wu Yan should be around here. Look carefully for me. Don't let him go."

"Yes."

The huge forest was swept several times by different spiritual senses, and the ground several feet deep was not spared.

After the crowd dispersed, Sanwei walked out of the cave, looked down at Ji Yu who was a little too quiet in the water, "Do you know them?"

I saw the small fish in the water wagging its tail and swimming straight ahead. The fish's kiss directly touched the glass bottle, and its eyes looked straight ahead.

Sanwei raised his head and looked forward, "East?"

The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the earth, outlining deep and shallow shadows. The mountain city hidden in the shadows stands silently outside the mountains, clearly separated from the vast wilderness. With the roar of the wilderness, the darkness deep in the mountain city is unfolding. ready to move.

"Miss Li, have you embroidered the handkerchief I asked for a few days ago?" A sharp voice sounded outside the low courtyard gate.

"Oh, I'm here. I've already embroidered more than half of what you ordered earlier. Look, it's not early today. Why don't I give it to you tomorrow." The low courtyard door was pushed open, and a cheeky man walked out. A skinny woman with tall bones.

"Why is it still not good? It's been five days." There was a bit of dissatisfaction in the sharp voice.

"Hey, you don't know. I'm an embroiderer in this mansion. I've been very busy recently. This mansion..." The words were like a chicken whose throat was pinched. Frightened, he covered it up in an instant.

"This big family just has a lot of things to do. No, I'm a little busy these days." As he spoke, he glanced at the expression of the woman in front of the courtyard, and the dark clouds overwhelmed the city. With a smile, "plus you as a regular customer, I definitely can't be perfunctory, it must be done carefully, so the time may be a bit slow, but the embroidery skills and patterns are definitely unique in our mountain city .”

The woman's complexion softened when she heard the words, "Forget it, let's do it this way, next time you can't be so slow, I don't know how many girls in the building are unhappy with the time wasted, if next time the girls..." The woman As he spoke, his plump and wrinkled face trembled slightly, and a hint of greed flashed in his cloudy eyes.

"Then I have to trouble Mom to say a few more words in front of the girls." The lady of the Li family took out a bunch of copper plates from her bosom and stuffed them in the woman's hands.

The woman had a smile on her face, "Okay, we have such a good relationship, of course we have to mention it more in front of the girls." As she spoke, she weighed the weight of the copper plate in her arms calmly, with a smile on her face Relent a little, "Okay, I'll get it tomorrow." Said and left with twisted hips.

"Bah, what the hell, I really think I'm someone!" Li's wife said bitterly, she reached out to collect the dustpan on the shelf, turned around and walked into the house.

Pushing open the door, there was a smell of medicine, followed by intermittent coughing.

"Cough, cough, cough, cough, why don't you die sooner? Just like the Zhang family's daughter, it's a disaster to keep it!" With a serious face, he threw the dustpan in his hand on the table, and opened his mouth. Face.

"The work in Zhang's mansion can't stop, and the crops in the field will be harvested in two days. How can you let me live!" After speaking, he threw himself on the bed and beat the bed board several times.

"Miss, thank you for your hard work." The thin, skinny hand was attached to the woman's hand, and the sickly man lying on the bed whispered.

The woman turned her face sideways, "It's not hard work, I went to Zhang's to work, and I may not be able to come back tonight. The medicine is on the table, remember to drink it later." As she spoke, her throat choked a few times, and she wiped Wiping the teardrops from the corners of her eyes, she stood up and turned her back to the man, and shouted in a low voice, "Did you hear that!"

"Wife, I wouldn't listen to my husband." There was a slight smile in the low voice.

"Just know the sloppy mouth!"

The woman let out a low drink, and hurriedly walked towards the door without turning her head. The tears on her face had already dried up, and there was an unfinished smile on the corner of her mouth.

"It's this woman?" Sanwei nodded Ji Yu's head, seeing Ji Yu shaking her head, a smile flashed across her eyes, "Shall we follow?"

The moon hangs high, and the long shadows in the sun drag on the ground.

"Oh, Li Xiuniang, you're finally here." The young man outside the door saw the Li family's lady actively coming up, looked around and whispered, "You don't know, since you left this three Miss is going crazy again, no one can stop her, I'm just waiting for you to come to my rescue!"

The lady of the Li family's complexion changed slightly, and she hid it in a blink of an eye, "I also know that I can't leave here, so I came here immediately without giving the family a medicine. How is the situation inside now?"

"This……"

"What are you talking about!" A stern voice sounded, and the housekeeper Zhang glanced at the two people who had been silent, his eyes stayed on Li's wife, and said coldly, "Li Xiuniang, the third lady has been waiting for you for a long time, and you don't know what to say." Hurry over!"

"Yes." He replied in a low voice, put his hands in his abdomen, lowered his head and disappeared into the corridor behind the servant.

The unruly man who was walking fish at the corner turned his head and glanced at the high courtyard wall of the Zhang Mansion, with a slight arc of his mouth, "There is an enchantment."

Looking down at little Ji Yu in the glass bottle, he raised his eyebrows, "What should I do?"

Ji Yu, who was motionless in the water, had no expression on her face, and silently vomited a bubble.

"..."

Suddenly a gust of wind blew past, and the wind and sand filled the sky, confusing people's eyes, the boy guarding the door rubbed his eyes, and sneezed, "What's the matter recently, the wind is always blowing, is it going to change the sky? "

Zhangfu Duanhuiyuan.

"Miss San, come down, it's dangerous up there, come down quickly!"

"Miss San, Miss San, I beg you, come down quickly."

"Third sister, mother and father are very worried, come down quickly!"

The woman standing on the roof swayed on tiptoes, turning a deaf ear to the calls from under the eaves, with a psychedelic smile on her face, "Wait for me to take a look, wait for me to take a look." It was kind of sweet, "He's coming soon." As he spoke, he leaned forward fiercely, and his feet slipped. Everyone in the room was startled and couldn't help but hold their breath.

A piece of red tile fell to the ground and fell to pieces, but the woman steadied herself amidst everyone's panic, and smiled innocently, "Do you think I will fall? No way." Her slender fingers rested on the On his lips, "Shh, let me tell you a secret, you will all die, and none of you will stay."

"Miss!" The lady of the Li family rushed over, and the third young lady's complexion changed, and she looked like a child who had done something wrong in an instant.

"Miss, it's time for you to rest." The lady of the Li family looked at the woman and said respectfully.

"Yeah." Obediently following behind the woman, the third lady lowered her head obediently, and when she walked to the door, she turned her head abruptly, looked at the relieved crowd, and grinned, with deep malice in her eyes, " All sinners die, and not one escapes."

The night was thick, and the entire Zhang Mansion fell into a deep sleep.

"Is that so?"

A few ripples swayed on the shimmering water under the moonlight, and Sanwei nodded Ji Yu's wagging tail, "Let's go in."

A gust of wind blew by, and the window in the wing room was pushed open with a creak.

Awakened by the noise, the night watch maid rubbed her eyes and yawned, "Well, why is this window open?" She stretched out her hand to cover the window and yawned again, "Why are you so sleepy today?" Walked to the table, sat for a while and even yawned a few times, teardrops squeezed out from the corners of his eyes, he lay down on the table involuntarily, rubbed his hands and muttered, "Let's just squint for a while, just squint for a while, just... ..."

After a while, there was a shallow breathing sound in the room. The woman lying on the bed slowly opened her eyes, glanced at the sleeping maid, got out of bed numbly, grabbed the bundle under the bed, and walked out the door. go.

Sanwei flashed out from the shadows, fell far behind the woman, looked at the muddy path in the garden without trace, looked up at the woman in front, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "It's interesting."

Barefooted, the woman walked through the garden, Duanhui Garden, and around the main hall to the backyard of Zishu Pavilion. The big red door with peeling paint creaked and was slowly pushed open. Cobwebs, the stone table in the courtyard was covered with dust, the pond beside it was covered with green branches and leaves, the moonlight shone lightly on the ground, and the backyard that had not been taken care of for a long time was overgrown with weeds.

The woman kept walking to the corner of the backyard, where a tall locust tree stood, and the shadow of the whirling tree revealed a little bit of moonlight on the woman's pale face, making it a little more gloomy for no reason. The woman squatted down and picked up the fallen leaves on the ground, A bluestone slab appeared in front of the eyes, lifted the bluestone slab on the ground, and the woman disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this, Sanwei who was hiding on one side caressed Ji Yu's tail, narrowing his eyes slightly.

Ji Yu, who was bald and spitting bubbles expressionlessly.

After a stick of incense, a person's head emerged from the ground followed by his body. Finally, the third lady of the Zhang family got out, covered the bluestone slab and covered the fallen leaves, and disappeared in place after a while.

When the person walked away completely, Sanwei jumped down from the locust tree, but the water bowl in his hand was not affected at all, and waved away the stone slab on the ground, revealing a dry well. A trace of cold air emerged from it, carrying a bit of bone-piercing coolness.

"Shall we go in and have a look?" Sanwei looked down at the little fish in his arms.

Ji Yu spat out a string of bubbles expressionlessly, and slowly wagged her tail.

The two disappeared in place, a gust of wind blew by, the shadows of the trees whirled, and the fallen leaves piled up, burying the traces of their arrival.
