Wu Nong stared blankly at the man in front of him with red eyes, and thought: Why are you crying again?
He silently mouthed to Qi Ling: don't move.
Qi Ling bit his lip and nodded, his forehead began to sweat.
Soon, Wu Nong knew why Qi Ling behaved like this.The two of them pressed close together, the mysterious fan in Qi Ling's arms was burning hot, and the warmth was faintly transmitted to Wu Nong against the clothes.
It was because of the evil thing in his hand.
Qi Ling frowned, his eyes were blurred by tears, he just wanted to quickly take the Xuanji Fan out of his arms.
On the other side, the housekeeper responded to Shen Wan's order and came in to see if anyone had broken into the secret room.The secret room was very dark, the butler didn't light the lamp, but just took a torch and turned it around, the fire gradually approached, Qi Ling grabbed Wu Nong's clothes, the pain was unbearable, and he bit his Adam's apple.
Wu Nong frowned suddenly, but didn't make a sound, and didn't push him away.
The housekeeper's shoes stayed by the bed for a while, and the Xuanji fan gave off a dark red light, Qi Ling and Wu Nong were standing next to each other, blocking all the light.
Blood oozes from the neck, and Wu Nong's eyes gradually turn cold.
The housekeeper found nothing unusual, turned around and went to the wall where the whip was originally placed, but only stared at the whip in front of it for a moment before leaving the secret room.
It seemed that the housekeeper didn't know that there was something evil behind the whip.
After the sound of the butler's footsteps faded away, Wu Nong breathed a sigh of relief, and turned to look at the man on his body.
Wu Nong opened his mouth, his throat was bitten by Qi Ling, and he said two words with difficulty through his teeth: "... let go."
The man in his arms let go, pulled out a thread of blood, and leaned limply on him.
Wu Nong: "...Qi Ling?"
Qi Ling didn't speak, and lay on his body panting.Xuanji fan stopped being hot, but his head still hurts.Immediately afterwards, he suddenly buried his head on Wu Nong's chest, his body trembling slightly.
Wu Nong has seen him in such a state, it was his reaction when he saw those ghosts in the soul tower.
There was still a faint taste of blood in Qi Ling's mouth: "Yang Lan..."
"what?"
"The person who died...is called Cui Yanglan. I saw Cui Yanglan...she was soaking wet, wearing a turquoise dress, smelling like tea...uh...she..."
Qi Ling crawled out of Wu Nong's body, retching beside him.
Wu Nong's eyes darkened, and he said in a deep voice, "...what does she want you to do for her?"
The situation that Qi Ling encountered was that after death, for some reason, the soul did not enter the place of death in the demon world, and chose to wander in the human world.
Such choices are mostly due to unfulfilled obsessions after death, and after finding a suitable person in the human world, entrust that person to help him continue to do things.
Those who are alive can only consider themselves unlucky to be chosen, but ghosts will pay a high price, so there are very few ghosts who actually do this.
After Cui Yanglan's death, her soul was suppressed by Shen Wan, and she had no chance to communicate with others.
But just now because of the mysterious fan, Cui Yanglan finally found someone she could communicate with, and regardless of whether this person is suitable or not, she entrusted her obsession with him during her lifetime.
If it is not completed, Cui Yanglan will keep pestering Qi Ling.
After the completion, Cui Yanglan's soul will also return to the land of death, and after being tortured there for thousands of years, her soul will be scattered.
"Did she want you to kill Shen Wan?" Wu Nong's eyes were cold, he transformed into chains to kill Shen Wan.
Qi Ling stopped him, saying: "She wants Shen Wan to die, but not now."
Wu Nong turned his head to look at him, his eyes were still red, Qi Ling didn't dare to look directly at him.
He turned his gaze to Wu Nong's neck, and whispered: "Your neck, I..."
"No problem." Wu Nong used spiritual power to stop the bleeding from the wound on his neck, and said, "Go out first."
The two came out of the secret room, and then returned to the front hall avoiding everyone's sight.
The expression on Yang Pingzhu's face was so dark that it couldn't be darker. When Shen Wan saw the two of them, his expression changed a little, and then he returned to normal. Do you want tea? Oh, how did this little fairy... get bitten on the neck?"
Yang Pingzhu also noticed the injury on Wu Nong's neck when he heard the words.
Wu Nong snorted and said, "There are too many teas in Shen's house, the two of us really can't choose. But Patriarch Shen, you didn't say that there are thorns growing on the tea in your Shen's house."
Shen Wan hesitated for a moment, faintly felt that there was something in his words, and smiled very reluctantly, saying: "Xian Jun is really joking, joking."
Several people chatted about some things, and they talked about Yang Pingzhu playing with Shen Changzhou in Shen's house before.
Yang Pingzhu didn't answer at all, only hummed a few words occasionally.
Shen Wan intentionally poked Yang Pingzhu's heart, he expressed concern, but in reality he was sarcastic everywhere, until finally Yang Pingzhu couldn't bear it anymore, and left Shen's house directly in front of Shen Wan.
Qi Ling and Wu Nong had no reason to stay here any longer, and bid farewell to Shen Wan.
The snow outside the house was getting heavier and heavier. When Qi Ling and the others came out of the secret room, a thin layer of snow had formed, and after a few more incense sticks, the snow was now thick enough to bury ankles.
Qi Ling shuddered, he was afraid of the cold, and now is the coldest season in the south of the Yangtze River.
There are a few wintersweet plants blooming brightly by the road, with snow on them, and they are quiet.
"It looks like Cui Yanglan died in the Xuntang River." Wu Nong chuckled, and said, "Shen Wan finds Taoist priests to do it every year, but he hasn't been able to suppress it for so many years. It seems that Cui Yanglan has a lot of hatred for Shen Wan. .”
A few children ran past them, holding a tent and branches in their hands, and stopped in front of them not far away.
This is to catch sparrows. When it snows in winter, the sparrows can't find food, so they will fall into the children's trap. As long as the thread connecting the branch is gently pulled, the sparrows will be covered.
Qi Ling murmured: "Catch sparrows..."
Wu Nong: "What?"
Qi Ling said: "Cui Yanglan has hated Shen Wan for so many years, if you want to lure her out, use Shen Wan."
After Qi Ling and the others left, Shen Wan immediately went to the secret room, but he didn't find any traces of being tampered with.
Ask the housekeeper, and the housekeeper also said that when he was ordered to go in and look, there was no one there.
Butler: "Master... Your secret room has been going on for so many years... What's the use of keeping it? If it weren't for that, Madam wouldn't be with you now..."
"Shut up!" Shen Wan hated people mentioning that matter the most, it would remind her of Cui Yanglan, "You go out."
The housekeeper hesitantly agreed and did not dare to persuade Shen Wan any more.
He did not understand why the master kept such a dreadful house.In recent years, the master has devoted himself to the tea business. Every time this secret room exists for one more day, the master's mood will never be relaxed.
It was as if something was imprisoning him there.
Shen Wan ordered his servants not to deliver meals, and after the housekeeper left, he lay on the bed alone, and accidentally fell asleep.
In the dream, Cui Yanglan came to seek revenge on him again.
The door was suddenly blown open by the wind, and the candles in the room were blown out. Shen Wan opened his eyes and sat up, only to realize that his whole body was wet.
Shen Wan started to get scared, and looked around the dark surroundings in a panic.
Suddenly, he saw a black shadow flashing from outside the house, and the next second, the door was blown shut with a "slap" by the wind.
Shen Wan tremblingly said: "Who is outside?!"
Although he has been in business for many years, he still keeps a sword by his pillow for self-defense.
He pulled out his sword without hesitation, got up and got out of bed and walked towards the door.
"Shen Wan..."
Just as Shen Wan was about to open the door, he was frightened by the sound and his back shivered.
This is not Cui Yanglan's voice.
Shen Wan clenched his sword tightly, and said: "Who?! Dare to sneak around my Shen residence!"
"Shen Wan... Shen Lang... I am Yang Lan..."
The cold wind blowing in from the window made Shen Wan alert, and then waved wildly in the room because of fear: "You are not Yang Lan! You are not! Yang Lan is already dead! Get lost!"
"...I'm dead? Hahahaha... Don't even think about it, who caused my death... Shen Lang... Do you know that I have been thinking about you every day for these years?"
"Go away!" Shen Wan yelled in the room, alarming the servants outside.
"My lord! What happened, lord, are you alright?" Several black shadows knocked on the door hastily, Shen Wan's eyes turned red with anger, and he yelled like crazy, "Go away! Get out of here !"
The servants trembled in fright, and did not dare to open the door to enter, and then left there.
Shen Wanda took a few breaths, rushed into the secret room, and took out the box behind the whip without hesitation, as soon as he opened it, beads fell out one after another, rolling to the ground.
"What on earth are you going to do?!" Shen Wan began to chop those beads, and the sword slashed fiercely. For a moment, the ground was covered with fragments of those multicolored beads, "You jumped into the river yourself! Why did you come to collect debts?! Ah!! There are so many women, only you... only you! Why are you holding on to me?! It's not my responsibility...it's not my responsibility...no!!"
Shen Wan was so angry that he lost his strength, looking at the messy beads and charms on the ground, his eyes were red as if they were about to bleed.
Suddenly, a red chain came in from the door of the secret room and tied him up.
Shen Wan came back to his senses and shouted: "Who pretends to be a ghost?!"
Wu Nong and Qi Ling came in from the entrance unhurriedly and stopped in front of him.
Shen Wan's eyes widened: "You——! As expected, you've discovered this place a long time ago!"
Qi Ling asked Wu Nong to light the lamp, and when he saw the beads on the ground, he thought, "Marbles?
Wu Nong tightened the chains that bound Shen Wan, picked up the sword on the ground, pointed at Shen Wan's neck and said, "Patriarch Shen, I have a question. With your brain... how do you become a tea merchant?"
Shen Wan glared at him angrily: "You——!"
Qi Ling picked up a whole marble and put it in front of his eyes, he saw the color inside and the candlelight in the secret room.
Qi Ling smiled and said: "Patriarch Shen, can you tell me why you use this thing to suppress Miss Cui's soul? I just heard from you that she... jumped into the river to die by herself?"
"...Despicable!" Shen Wan spat on the ground, and said angrily, "You cultivators broke into private houses and wronged people indiscriminately!"
Qi Ling restrained his smile: "Whether it is slander or not, you will find out after walking with us."
Shen Wan had a bad premonition in his heart: "What are you going to do? Where are you taking me?! Hey!"
Qi Ling and Wu Nong ignored him, tied him up and were about to go outside.
Shen Wan yelled and cursed all the way, "Loosen your sleeves, you two!"
Wu Nong was stunned for a moment: "..."
Qi Ling froze: "..."
Wu Nong tightened the chain, the chain was embedded in the flesh, Shen Wan cried out in pain.
Qi Ling picked a handful of snow from the side, stuffed it into his mouth, and said with a smile: "Before you meet Miss Cui, you can think about it, after all... where did you have the courage to say that?"
He silently mouthed to Qi Ling: don't move.
Qi Ling bit his lip and nodded, his forehead began to sweat.
Soon, Wu Nong knew why Qi Ling behaved like this.The two of them pressed close together, the mysterious fan in Qi Ling's arms was burning hot, and the warmth was faintly transmitted to Wu Nong against the clothes.
