Chapter 480: Mourning Hall

On the neatly trimmed trees, long ribbons were hung everywhere, half red and half white.

The yard is very small and very narrow. It looks like an alley left by neighbors.

Chi Shi stepped in and was stunned. She stood in the middle of the "allery" and looked forward. On the left side, she was coaxed out of the gap, and there was a whole row of characters "Xi". The characters "Xi" were the same as the ribbon hanging, half white and half red.

About ten meters ahead, there is a bungalow with the door closed. On the door frame, there is also a red and white curtain hanging on it, making it difficult to tell whether this family is holding a wedding or a funeral.

Xu Qiu and others also followed him in at this time, and the small yard was quiet and there was no noise at all.

"What's going on? Duke of England, didn't you say that this is the empty house of Zuo's Censor? I looked like someone lived in it. Is the house of Zuo's Censor's house so narrow and long?"

Zhou Xian looked at it, walked to Chi Shi and pulled out the long sword from his waist.

The atmosphere here is very strange. Even though he was used to watching the murder scene with Chi Shi, Zhou Xian still wanted to say that it is very strange here.

The dim lanterns swayed in the night wind, and the hanging curtains and the word "Happy" seemed to have become shady, making people feel cold all over their bodies.

Xu Qiu, who had been whining before, didn't dare to speak randomly now. He quietly walked to Liu Ming and held his arm. Liu Ming was startled and screamed out.

Seeing everyone looking at him, he stammered, "This is someone else's house, let's break in private... It's not bad, I'll go out first."

He said, turning around and running towards the gap in the wall that Chi Shi had just hit with violence, but as soon as he ran there, his figure swayed and fell to the ground.

Chi Shi and Zhou Xian hurriedly took the lantern and saw a raised door bolt on the pile of wall fragments. Liu Ming, the unlucky guy, was just blinded by the door bolt and was tripped by the door bolt.

Chi Shi raised his eyebrows, walked over, and pulled Liu Ming up.

Liu Ming sucked his mouth, spit out a mouthful of blood, and brought a tooth.

"It seems that this is not the courtyard wall, but the courtyard gate of this house. Xu Wuniang has been sitting here, wanting to wait for the people here to come and open the door. Instead of choosing a quiet place and staring blankly there."

Chi Shi said, and looked at the house again. At some point, the door that had been closed before was opened, and a crack was opened, and a little candlelight came out... The candlelight jumped and was far less bright, as if it was about to go out at any time.

Chi Shi thought about it and looked at Zhou Xian. Zhou Xian nodded at Chi Shi, holding the long sword in his hand, and walked in front.

"Ah Shi, I'll walk in front and you follow behind. There is something wrong here. There may be people in the room, so everyone should be careful."

Zhou Xian said, and walked to the door of the house together. A gust of wind blew. A small gap had been opened before, and it was suddenly blown open by the wind.

Chi Shi plied the broken hair that was blown to the front. She turned her head and found that the people from the Duke of England were standing far away and did not step forward. Half of the Duke of England's face was hidden in the shadow, dark and unclear.

She snorted, turned her head, followed Zhou Xian, and walked into the room.

This is a very strange house. The ordinary house has a main house and a left and right wing room. This house is as narrow and lengthy as this alley.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw a wedding hall. On the candlesticks on the left and right, there were red dragon and phoenix candles. On the two chairs opposite, there was a paper man and a woman wearing luxurious clothes and smiling sinisterly, as if they were waiting to see the newlyweds' parents.

In front of the paper man, I did not see the groom and the bride, but only a bamboo bed that occupied almost one-third of the width of the house.

On the bamboo bed, there were bed sheets and quilts with mandarin ducks playing in the water, and on top, there was half a terrifying looking corpse...

Chi Shi sighed lightly and patted Zhou Xian who was already stunned. "There is no upper part. This should be the foot of a man whose name is unknown, as well as Xu Wuniang's foot and the man's pelvis."

"They were sewn together with needles and threads. It seems that the murderer is probably here."

Chi Shi said, his eyes turned and looked at the door on the wall.

Like the outside door, this door is also hidden.

The house is very narrow and cannot hide anyone at all. If the murderer still hasn't left here, he should be in the room that is walking backwards.

Chi Shi thought, and pulled out his usual long whip from his waist. At this moment, she took a step ahead of Zhou Xian, walked in front, and pushed open the door.

Seeing this, Zhou Xian followed in, turned sideways, blocking the front of Chi Shi. When he saw the situation in the room, Zhou Xian breathed a sigh of relief.

Compared with the thrilling joy hall in front of it, this place is simply so ordinary that it is comfortable.

It looks like an ordinary woman's boudoir. A stepping bed with a white tent embroidered with lotus flowers hanging on it. Next to the bed is a dressing table with a bronze mirror on it, as well as some rouge and powder, hair combed jewelry.

The house was clean and neatly tidy, and on the table, there was even a book that was opened and not too late to close. Chi Shi could see at a glance that it was a medicine scripture.

She thought, her eyes looking at the door leading to the next room again.

Zhou Xian patted her shoulder, pointed at himself, and signaled that he would come first this time.

Chi Shi spread his hands and whispered in a funny way, "You go, maybe there is nothing special about the next room."

She said, touching her chin, "Miss Zhou, can you tell me that this is a bad luck? Or is it a bad luck for me?"

After all, the first room that Zhou Xian entered was like a book of strange stories, such as the days when I married xx in those years, and the second room she entered was just a record of Daliang’s little lady’s boudoir.

Zhou Xian smiled embarrassedly and cleared his throat, "Just coincidence."

He said, pushing towards the door, but as soon as his hand touched the door, he heard a strange singing sound.

The sound was sometimes far and sometimes near, as if someone was humming some strange little song.

Zhou Xian thought about Chi Shi's words and couldn't smile bitterly.

Damn, he didn't look at the almanac when he went out today. Was he possessed by some bad god? Even if the door was not opened, he could guess that behind this door must be even more terrifying than the first room.

Feeling the sight behind him, Zhou Xian took a deep breath. In front of Master Chi Jiu, he must not be afraid! After all, he is the man Chi Shi relies on.

He thought, and reached out and pushed it hard, and the palm wind blew up the inner room with the opened door.

Blow up the white cloth strips hanging on the beams one by one. Here it was like a dyed cloth workshop. The ones hanging on the head were washed clean and the white cloth that had not yet been printed and dyed.

At the end of the white cloth, a beautiful woman was sitting, humming a little song, smiling at the corners of her mouth and eyes.

On her knee was a head, and she was flying needles and threading.

As soon as the palm wind passed, the white cloth was put down. Zhou Xian and the same-chip wanted to see clearly, but the woman's face was invisible.
