Chapter 204 Balance(1/2)
The carriage was wandering around, mixing inconspicuously among the noisy crowds on the street, but countless sights were sticking to the carriage from all directions.
The carriage passed through the street, into the alley, over the Imperial College, and parked in front of the small courtyard. A young man jumped out of the car and complained loudly. The door opened and walked out of the inside. He was a teenager and an old man quarreled with the boy, and then helped a young man in the car. The young man staggered, and it seemed that he had drunk a lot. The young men went in and quieted in front of the door.
The dusk is dark, and the day has passed again.
The water in the copper basin is cool, and the hands covered with soil are soaked in it and shampoo it.
"Run to have a drink with Suo Shengxuan Qinmei?" Chen Sheng said, taking his hand out of the copper basin.
Kang Dai handed over the towel and responded: "I have a fight with the teenagers from Chang'an Mansion at Mr. Qingxia's house."
Chen Sheng wiped his hands and said, "Mr. Qingxia's affairs were too sudden, and young people couldn't accept it for a while, and they were anxious and had nowhere to vent..."
Kang Dai took the conversation and said, "I've vented all my anger on Xue Qing. When Mr. Qingxia had an accident, Xue Qing was in the brothel, so everyone misunderstood her. Now Xue Qing has a lot of things and is concerned about safety. She has been keeping her on the side of Mr. Qingxia for a short time, so the classmates are even more dissatisfied... I'm really wronged."
Chen Sheng smiled: "This is not a grievance, the truth will always be revealed in the future." He paused, "But why did she go to find Suo Shengxuan and Qin Mei to drink?"
.....
.....
"I actually went to find Suo Shengxuan?"
At the same time, Wang Lieyang also heard the news, and a little surprise appeared on the old man's face.
"It is not his purpose to find Suo Shengxuan." The person standing in front of him replied, "Suo Shengxuan invited Qin Mei. Xue Qing said goodbye and seemed to be drinking. He was picked up by Liu Ye, Chang'an Mansion." He paused again, "No one from other students came to pick him up. Previously, Xue Qing had a quarrel with them and left unhappily."
Why did it end in happiness? Now everyone in the capital knows that when Mr. Qingxia had an accident, his proud disciple, the gentleman, tried to be the top of the list, Xue Qing, drank flowers and wine in the brothel. The prodigy of poetry also made a small poem for the prostitute. This time the legend of the dead poem was fulfilled again and fulfilled by his husband.
Of course, everyone also knows that Xue Qing is innocent. After all, he doesn't know that Mr. Qingxia would die at that time. If he knew, it would definitely not be like this. But the rumors are like this. Exaggerated is more eye-catching. Then it is exaggerated again during the circulating. So now there are rumors in the local area that after Mr. Qingxia's death, the student Xue Qing lingers in the brothel.
"Xue Qing has rarely kept his mind these days and said he wanted to study at home. The classmates were dissatisfied with this and quarreled." The man continued.
Wang Lieyang smiled and said, "Young people are really, and this matter is taken seriously." He picked up the tea and drank it. "A person cannot be resurrected. Of course, living people must continue to live. You can't sleep to death because of this. You should eat and drink. When the old people go, they will make friends with new people. Although it is ruthless, this is the normal human nature."
As for young people, all the big things can collapse on the same day. When they really see the sky falling, they will know that it is just that. The man smiled and frowned, saying, "Then is Xue Qing going to make friends with Qin Mei? This is impossible. Mr. Qingxia was forced to death by Qin Tan Gong."
Wang Lieyang said: "You are wrong. There is no evidence that Qin Tan Gong forced him to death. Besides, he has not made friends with Qin Tan Gong. He is Qin Mei. Don't think too much about young people."
The man smiled and shook his head: "I really can't see through the young man's affairs, but Xue Qing lost his support because Mr. Qingxia died and lost his support, so he went to Qin Tan Gong. Even if he had a lot of talent, it was despised."
Wang Lieyang said: "I don't look down on him. If he really can do this, I admire him." Put down the teacup in his hand, "That's how people who can bend and stretch their breasts are also useful people. As long as they are useful people, anyone can use it. It's great."
The man understood and smiled and replied.
.....
.....
People all over the capital would guess like this, and of course Chen Sheng and others would not.
"She doesn't want to avenge Mr. Qingxia because she wants to be unfavorable to Qin Mei, right?" Kang Dai said worriedly.
This is the most reasonable guess for them.
Chen Sheng pondered for a moment and said, "Her move must be related to Mr. Qingxia, but it should not be bad for Qin Mei. I have already told her about Qin Mei, and she also said that it is meaningless to hurt Qin Mei."
Kang Dai was even more puzzled and said, "What do she want to do? Going to see Suo Shengxuan and Qinmei at this time will be a bad reputation for her."
Chen Sheng smiled and said, "Don't guess, what else can we guess in our own people? I'll ask her and everyone will understand."
Kang Dai also smiled and said, "Look at me, I'm confused."
Chen Sheng looked at the sky and said, "It's getting late, you've been busy for a day, go back and rest." He comforted again, "Don't worry, although there is not much time left, things still need to be done one by one."
Kang Dai responded respectfully and withdrew.
Walking out of Chen Sheng's mansion, the night market in the capital had begun. Kang Dai sat in the carriage and looked at the streets with bright lights and crowds, the restaurants and teahouses were noisy, and the brothel fireworks alleys were fragrant. He was so prosperous and wealthy that he tapped his knees with his fingers. He was sad and never belonged to this city.
Kang Dai returned home quickly without delaying the road. Under the servitude of his wives and concubines, he changed clothes and had lunch, so he came to the study to sort out his daily affairs.
This is his most private place. Apart from a personal servant, he cannot even get close to his wife and concubines. The night is getting darker, the candlelight jumps, and the study is quiet. Kang Dai closed the book, looking satisfied and a little tired. Mr. Qingxia's effect after his death was really good. As expected, death like this is the most suitable. I think Mr. Qingxia will be relieved.
A low laughter rang indoors.
Kang Dai raised his hand and pressed his mouth. His mouth was still closed. Why did the laughter sound in his heart sound? In a daze, the candle fire on the table twisted and jumped like a snake strangled by a tied neck. There was no wind. This strange scene made Kang Dai widen his eyes, and the next moment, the candle fire in the room was extinguished.
The previously stuffy room was also chilling in an instant, and goosebumps suddenly rushed straight from Kang Dai's feet to his head.
Is it windy? Is it going to rain? Doors and windows are closed, what's going on? Or is it because I thought of someone I shouldn't think of? For example, a dead person, Kang Dai swallowed his saliva, Zi said nothing but was insane. He wanted to take a deep breath, raise his hand to light the light, and the door opened at this moment...
"A Yu?" Kang Dai narrowed his eyes and looked at him, "Is the wind blowing outside?"
"There is no wind." A voice replied, and at the same time the door was closed, a little blue light lit up.
A human face suddenly appeared in front of Kang Dai's eyes... If it were still human, he would have a white hat, white shirt, white hair, white beard, and a white face, white eyes, scarlet tongue...
Kang Dai suddenly saw this scene and screamed in fear and fell on the chair.
What...ghost?
.....
.....
Scholars, regardless of ghosts and gods, Kang Dai simply said that he did not believe in ghosts and gods, but what is the situation now?
The doors and windows on all sides of the room were closed, the candle fire was extinguished, and the surroundings were like ice condensed, and a faint light shone in front of him shone on the figure.
"It's not a human, it's a ghost."
The dry, hoarse and weird sound was corrected, the flying hair and beard had already dropped, and the rolling eyes were also closed, but the blood-red tongues of the two black eyes in the faint light were even more scary.
"I'm a fool."
Yin Chai? Kang Dai looked at him and his mind was slightly restored. I believe you!
"Who? What do you want to do?" He trembled, but then he looked shocked again... His voice could not be made, he could not speak.
"You don't have to speak, you're a ghost. Just think about what you want to say and I'll hear it." A dry voice echoed in my ears.
Kang Dai noticed that the person who was talking did not move his tongue and lips.
What's going on? Impossible, Impossible! Who is it? What do you want to do? Whose person is it? Is Qin Tan Gong? Have you finally found yourself?
"I said I was a fool, I'm here to ask about the case." The dry voice continued to echo in my ears. This time, he raised his hand and pointed it aside, "This is Lin Yue."
Which Lin Yue? Kang Dai stared at him and looked at him as he pointed.
If it weren't for this... the ghost reminded him, he didn't notice that there was another figure. The figure squatted beside the table, as dark as a stone, without any human breath at all.
"Lin Yue, Lin Qingxia, the one who just jumped off the building and died." A dry voice continued to sound.
Ha? Kang Dai looked at the figure.
"He cried in the underworld about his death and sued you for harming him, so the King of Hell ordered me to bring him to confront him." A dry voice said, "Kang Dai, but did you kill him?"
What! Kang Dai sat upright and played this trick with him... Thinking he was a three-year-old child? The thought flashed through him, and his whole body suddenly felt like tens of thousands of needles were pierced, and it seemed like he was suddenly thrown onto the iron needle board. It hurts! It hurts!
Kang Dai felt himself screaming in an instant, but he just felt that because he still couldn't open his mouth, and he couldn't even speak, and he couldn't even make a cry of pain, and he couldn't move his body. He sat stiffly, just like his soul was out of his body, and his body was no longer his.
The dry sounds in my ears are still clearly lingering.
"I know everything you think after saying it. Why can't you understand nonsense? I'm very busy with errands and I'll take two more people away tonight. Don't waste my time. The King of Hell will let the third update die, and I can't keep anyone until the fifth update."
What, what, what, ten thousand needles were pulled away, and the severe pain instantly dissipated, and Kang Dai still felt his whole soul trembling.
"Did you kill Lin Yue?"
No, no, no, it was killed by Qin Tan Gong, Kang Dai shouted in his heart.
"That's something that everyone knows. Don't talk to ghosts. He fell into the hands of Duke Qin Tan, but he shouldn't have died at that time, if he hadn't seen Xue Qing."
It turned out that, actually, that Kang Dai's heart and soul trembled together. Those who knew this were either Qin Tan Gong or his own, so he was still caught by Qin Tan Gong's people... Is this day finally here? He won't tell what he shouldn't have revealed!
The thought flashed and ten thousand needles pierced into it again.
Kang Dai's soul screamed and trembled and tore up again. He felt that he was dead and unconscious, but the dry sound in his ears was still clear.
"If you answered me, don't think about anything else. Did you bring Xue Qing there just to force Lin Yue to death?"
No! No...that thought flashed, and a click in my ear. Kang Dai felt his arms fall off, and his soul trembled violently again, it hurts! It hurts!
The pain made his consciousness clear again. In the dim room, he clearly saw that there was no needle roller board on the chair he was still sitting upright, his arms were intact, and his body was not even sweating. In front of him, the white beard, white hair, black hole, and long tongue stood quietly opposite the table without moving.
All were still, but his pain was boiling and real.
What's going on, what's going on, what's going on? This is not a dream. It's a long time ago that it's painful. If it's not a dream, how did this person do this?
Is it really... a ghost?
"We can't hurt your body, but we can never stop punishing your soul, and you can taste the punishment of the eighteen levels of hell."
The dry sound is quiet.
"Kang Dai, I'll ask you again. Did you deliberately bring Xue Qing here just to force Lin Yue to death?"
No...Kang Dai's soul floated like a kite with broken strings, but as soon as the word "No" flashed, the soul suddenly became tightened by the thread. Although it was only twice, he was already familiar with it. It was the prelude to the piercing of ten thousand needles... Ah! Ah! Ah!
"Yes! Yes! Yes!" He finally shouted.
The tightened line did not break.
"Yes, that's you, come with us." said a dry voice.
To be continued...
