Chapter 14

"I was worried that something would happen, so I stood at the window and watched. Sun Zhan and Deng Xiucai fought in a group..."

Chi Shi was quite surprised when he heard this. There were witness confessions in the file, and Tuo Niang was among them, but at that time, she did not say this.

"Why didn't this mention in the hall back then?"

Tuo Niang blushed and sighed, "It was midnight, and the wild lake was pitch black. I was afraid that I would take it wrong. I would cause unnecessary trouble at that time, so I didn't say it. The county master at that time didn't ask about this either."

Chi Shi could understand that it was normal for Tuo Niang to be reborn at that time and was unwilling to let Zuihualou get involved in the murder.

"If you think of something, I'll send someone to tell me, don't make a sound," Chi Shi said, stood up, walked to the window, and stood far away from the railing.

Although the view in this room is not as good as the next door, you can also see the weeds by the wild lake. Now it is winter, the grass is withered and yellow, and it looks particularly bleak.

She turned around, looked at the teacup in Tuo Niang's hand, and looked over inquiring, "The tea is cold."

Tuo Niang shook her hand and almost poured out the tea.

Chi Shi shook his head and opened the door. Zhou Xian's handsome face came into view.

I have to say that he was born very well, even standing there in a hurry, revealing a sense of elegance. He had a wide dress and big sleeves, and his waist was slender and fragile, as if he could become an immortal after a sneeze.

It’s not a big deal for Jiule to say that he is like this.

When he saw Chi, he smiled slightly, and his heart was filled with joy as if it was about to overflow.

Chi Shi glanced at her after a glance, and he had been following her Jiule. At this time, his face was as red as a pig's liver, and he would drip bleeding whenever he moved.

"Ah sneeze!" Chi Shi sneezed, rubbed Zhou Xian's nose, and walked downstairs as if no one was around.

Zhou Xian's body stiffened. When she went downstairs, she raised her sleeve suspiciously, "I'm incense today, have I smoked too much?"

The guard Chang Kang shook his head, "It's no different from usual. The fragrance on the young master's body is vague."

Just as Zhou Xian was about to speak, he saw Tuo Niang rushing out in the room, holding the cup of tea that she poured for her when she was holding the pool. She shouted to the waiter, "Hurry up, get an empty wine bottle... No, bring my little jade bottle..."

"I don't dare to drink the tea that Master Jiu poured me, nor can I bear to drink it. I have to put it in a jade bottle and offer it."

When I had already reached the pond at the entrance of Zuihua Tower, I paused slightly.

No, I haven’t walked far away, and I can still hear it! It’s not that the world has misunderstood me, but that’s because you have a huge misunderstanding of me, Tuo Niang!

When Zhou Xian and his servant came to their senses from the shock, Tuo Niang had already filled tea with jade bottles and held it happily.

"I think the shopkeeper uses jade bottles to make tea, but it's not short of money. Why not buy this Zuihua Building to save rent every year? Could it be that Chi Shi is not allowed?" Zhou Xian raised his eyebrows and said softly.

Then Tuo Niang gently stroked the jade bottle, "Young Master is a foreigner, I don't understand. The world is hard, I am a helpless and weak woman. Even if I give this Zuihua Tower, how many days can I keep?"

"People say that my Madam is powerful, but I am just protected by others. There are many people like me who live on the Ninth Master and the Fifth Lady in this Youhai."

She said, nodded to Zhou Xian, and went downstairs to the backyard.

Zhou Xian drank the last sip of wine in the cup, shook the dust that did not exist on his body, and followed quickly.

...

Outside Youhai City, there are two land temples.

Originally, the Land Temple was on the west side, but eight years ago, a flood occurred in Tianyouhai, flooding half of the temple and silt accumulated. The county magistrate at that time decided to build a Land Temple in the east.

The land god in the old temple was invited to the new temple. Now the new temple is in full bloom and full of prosperity. However, the old temple is in disrepair and rarely visited.

Weeds grew in the cracks of the bluestone slabs leading to the old temple. The sunlight shone through the roof that broke a big hole and fell down, looking full of dust. The statues of the gods on the platform were gone.

Only a black mark was left on the countertop. The incense burner used to insert incense was broken into two halves and fell to the ground miserably. There were spider webs everywhere at the eaves and feet. When people moved forward, the gecko on the wall whizzed up.

"Young master, are we really going in? I saw that the roof might collapse at any time. Fortunately, it is winter now, and if summer comes, the grass will be deep, so I am afraid I will step on the snake's nest."

"It's just a legend ten years ago. Once this day changes, if there is a female ghost, she will be lonely. Besides, what does this land temple have to do with the case we are going to investigate?"

"There are always something to say at the table. If there were such a strange thing at that time, it wouldn't be surprising for them to say it."

Chi Shi narrowed his eyes and looked at the weeds in front of him, "Someone has come. You talk a lot today."

Chi Shi said, bent down, reached out and gently snatched it out of the grass, and took out a line. She looked at it and saw it. It was a rose-red line.

The skillful girl used this thread to wove a ribbon, and put on a jade pendant pressing the corner of her skirt. When she walked, her tassels were light and elegant, elegant and lively.

"This place can be considered a wilderness, how could every girl come?"

Jiule, who was originally opening the road ahead, suddenly froze when he heard it, "Mr....Young Master... Could it be that legend be true. There is really a female ghost here... I heard that she was abandoned by her husband's family and hung on the beam."

"I always cry and want to attract my husband to marry again! I heard from people that she would ask, "Is it good to me?" If you say it's good to me, she will immediately spit out her long tongue, her eyes suddenly rise up, and she insists on getting married to you!"

Chi Shi passed him and walked ahead first, "I have never seen anyone who is afraid of ghosts and likes to listen to ghost stories."

"I didn't say this before."

Jiule rubbed the back of his hand, and looked at the dilapidated temple in front of him, and felt even more gloomy. He took a step on his left, pressed against the little donkey in the pond, and rubbed it with a pleasing touch.

The little donkey squirted, shook his tail, and ran towards Chi Shi.

Jiule was shocked, looked back, and ran up, "Young master walked slowly. I heard from the old man that she was wearing white mourning clothes, and more than one person saw it. A escort was caught and became a groom. After returning, he died!"

He said, his voice trembling.

Chi Shi was quite speechless. This person was really good at calculating. It was obvious that Tuo Niang had said before that Ma's subordinates had been scared to heal for more than a month, so they were scared to death!

"Young master, why don't you go in?" Jiule said, looking at Chi Shi's gaze and screaming immediately, "Ah!"

I saw a person hanging on the beam of the room. She was wearing white mourning clothes. When the wind passed by, the corners of her skirt swayed. The crow living on her was alarmed by Jiule's cry, flapping its wings, and the figure swayed even more violently.
