hell in disguise

Yan Fei strolled around, then returned to the West Wing.As soon as he opened the door, he was surprised to see Tan Yangzi sitting on the tree with a black cat in his arms.Yan Fei couldn't help laughing, "Master! What are you doing!"

Tan Yangzi was busy petting the cat just now, only to find that Yan Fei had come back, feeling a little embarrassed for a while, and hurriedly jumped down from the tree, "I just saw it was trapped on the tree..."

Yan Fei leaned over with great interest, and stretched out his hand to scratch the black cat's jaw.The black cat is not afraid of people. It makes a charming meow, closes its eyes and purrs to enjoy it.The lines on Tan Yangzi's face also softened, and his eyes were filled with warmth and love from the bottom of his heart.Yan Fei didn't expect Master to like small animals, but at this moment, this kind of gentle expression almost made him crazy.

"I don't know whose cat is naughty." Tan Yangzi rubbed the black cat's head.

Yan Fei noticed a bell hanging around the cat's neck, picked it up and looked carefully, but found that it was a silver and gold bell with the word "Xi" engraved on it.Yan Fei thought, but such a precious material is used on cats, it is probably impossible for servants to afford it, but it is very likely that it was in the room of the lady I saw today.Yan Fei raised the corner of his mouth, this is an opportunity.

So he told Tan Yangzi the story of meeting Ms. Zhao in the garden. He thought the master would praise him for his ability, but he didn't expect Tan Yangzi to put the black cat in his arms with a sullen face, and said lightly, " That being the case, you can take this cat in your arms."

As soon as Yan Fei saw Master's face pretending to be calm, he knew that someone was jealous again.He sniggered in his heart, but still pretended to be apologetic, "But tell me, Master, what if that little girl falls in love with me?"

"...Don't play with other people's emotions! Master never taught you this!"

"Of course I won't, I will clearly tell her that I already have my heart~" Yan Fei looked at Tan Yangzi affectionately, and blinked his right eye at him.

Tan Yangzi rolled his eyes at him, but there was a faint sweetness in his heart, and the sourness just now was diluted.He shook his head and said, "If you want to go, go quickly, figure it out as soon as possible, so that you and I can finish the matter as soon as possible."

"Okay! I'll be back when I go!"

Holding the cat in his arms, Yan Fei came to the hanging flower door of the third entrance courtyard, and knocked on the door with his hand.Not long after, a maid came to open the door, and when she saw the cat in Yan Fei's arms, she cried out, "Oh! So she is here!"

Yan Fei smiled and said, "It really is from your courtyard?"

"That's right! Miss has been looking for her for a whole day, and even went to the garden before!" Seeing Yan Fei's beautiful smile, the maid blushed a little, "Then... I'll take the cat there!"

At this time, a questioning voice suddenly came from the yard, "Ying'er, who is it?"

The maid known as Ying'er hurriedly turned her head and said, "Miss! Tan'er was found! It was sent by this young master!"

Not long after, footsteps were heard, and the beautiful face of the young lady whom I had just met appeared under the verandah.When Zhao Xijun saw the young man in red standing at the door that she could not forget for a long time, she suddenly felt her heart beat faster, and seeing him hugging her precious lump made her feel even more fond of him.Her personality was originally different from that of other ladies, and she was ridiculously generous even when facing men, so she greeted Yan Feiying, "Thank you, my lord, Tan'er is extraordinary to me, I must repay you well today." .”

Yan Fei also smiled politely, and put the cat into Yinger's arms, "It's a little effort, Miss doesn't have to worry about it, as long as Miss doesn't mind being rude."

"If you don't mind the young master, come to my yard for a cup of tea, and treat it as a little girl to reward the young master." After she finished speaking, she did not give Yan Fei a chance to refuse, and asked the maid named Xiangwen behind her to prepare tea.Yan Fei cupped his hands and said, "Then I'd rather be respectful than obedient."

There is a pomegranate tree in the yard, which is filled with bright red flowers among the green leaves.There is an exquisite stone table under the tree, and there is a handicap on the table.Yan Fei sat across from Zhao Xijun, drinking tea absently, while pretending to look around, observing everyone in the yard.

I can't feel any ghost...

Zhao Xijun asked at this time, "I heard that your master and my father are old acquaintances?"

Yan Fei nodded, "My master originally came to Bianliang this time to meet old friends, who knows..."

Zhao Xijun lowered his eyes, showing a ray of sadness.But this sadness seems a bit complicated, "Everything happened too fast."

Taking the opportunity of drinking tea, Yan Fei secretly used his charm, raised a pair of haunting eyes to look at her, and asked, "I heard that your father died suddenly? But I don't know exactly what happened? Is it a sudden illness?" Is it?"

Zhao Xijun felt that pair of black eyes were like an abyss, and once he met, he was inexplicably attracted to them, as if he wanted to express the resentment and sadness that were stagnant in his heart.She said sadly, "That night he slept in his aunt's room, and he died when he was found the next day."

"Auntie?"

Xiangwen next to her said with disdain, "Hmph, if it wasn't for that woman, the master wouldn't..."

"Xiangwen!" Zhao Xijun scolded in a low voice.

Yan Fei frowned and said, "Could it be murder for money?"

"That's not true. Caizhu herself was almost scared to death, and she is still bedridden. The doctor said that father died of fright. His face..." As he spoke, Zhao Xijun suddenly choked up With a sound, he quickly turned his head and tried the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, "Do you know why they don't allow them to pay homage to the remains? Because of the expression on my father's face when he died... I've never seen him with such a frightened and terrified expression. I almost want to I couldn’t recognize that it was his face. And when I found it, it was already stiff, and I couldn’t recover it anyway... I think every day, what did he see in the end..."

Yan Fei asked again if there was anything unusual about the family, but Zhao Xijun couldn't figure it out either.Yan Fei drank a few more sips of tea, then found an excuse to go back.

After Tan Yangzi listened, he said, "It seems necessary to visit the little concubine named Caizhu, but she is sick in bed as a concubine, so we can't go to see her in a grand manner. After nightfall we will Light the corpse candle, and then go to investigate in secret."

After nightfall, the whole Zhao Mansion gradually quieted down, except for a few servants and daughters-in-law who were on duty in various courtyards, most of the people were asleep.Tan Yangzi set up a corpse candle array and asked Yan Fei to stay in the side room in case someone on duty came to inquire, while he lightly jumped onto the roof and leaped towards the inner courtyard where the female relatives lived under the cover of the dark night .There is a main room in the inner courtyard, a side room, and a small courtyard separated from it.Yan Fei mentioned that Zhao Xijun probably lived in the side room, so the main room should be lived by his wife.As a result, most of the concubines were placed in that small courtyard.

In a well-cleaned and exquisite hut, a few bushes of evening primrose were planted in front of the window, and the soul-stirring fragrance was diffused in the night.However, in the eyes of Tan Yangzi, who was affected by the corpse candle, those flowers were another kind of half-rotten dark red, with many dirty things like pieces of meat hanging on them, and many karmic insects lazily knelt on the ground and on the eaves.The scent of evening primrose also turned into a rancid smell, especially the closer to the house, the stronger the smell.

He was almost certain that the ghost was on this little concubine, but when he sneaked into the house with the ghost-exorcism talisman ready in his hand, what he saw was a mass of meat paste spread out on the bed.It was almost a liquid-like gel-like thing, which contained many strange things that resembled human organs and excrement, and it was completely impossible to tell where the head and hands were.

Although such a deformation is serious, it is obviously still the soul of a human being, not the appearance of a ghost...

Tan Yangzi frowned, and checked carefully again, but he still didn't see anything unusual... Could it be that he miscalculated?

For fear of being discovered, he didn't dare to stay for too long, and returned to the west wing full of doubts.Seeing his expression, Yan Fei knew that the trip was not going well, so he comforted, "Master, don't worry, we still have two days to investigate."

But Tan Yangzi shook his head and said, "When I came back, I observed the distribution of karmic insects, and there were already the most in that small courtyard. What I am worried about now is that the ghosts are not in this mansion, but from came in from outside."

"Zhao Yuanwai died in the concubine's bedroom. The ghost always has to be attached to someone to get close to him. That is to say, only those who can enter the concubine's bedroom can scare him to death. Could it be some servant or maid?"

"I have kept an eye on the guards and servant girls, and I haven't seen anything suspicious."

"If that's the case, I'll use the sentimental technique to look for it. Maybe it's hidden in the string of love like Shui Langjun."

Yan Fei immediately raised the soul-inducing bell, and chanted the incantation, the familiar feeling of falling down came over him, passing through the endlessly spiraling terrifying abyss, and soon entered the abyss composed of countless spiraling and entangled strings. world of love strings.Master's love strings are a bit messy, probably a little irritable, maybe because he thinks this is a small job, but he didn't expect there to be so many troubles.Yan Fei left the room and walked around casually.Most people's love strings are a few simple parallel lines, because they are still in a deep sleep, and they don't even have dreams, so they don't cause any emotional fluctuations.He looked around, and finally saw something different when he walked around to Mrs. Zhao's room.

Some lines with ominous red light, turning at weird and abrupt angles, are chaotic and irritable, but they are full of yellow disturbances.When Yan Fei was studying in Hell, he simply recited the readings of the love strings distributed to all the red impermanence. Such love strings seemed more like hatred and anger, but the disturbing yellow color seemed to be panic.

It seems that Mrs. Zhao knows something?If you can inquire from her, you can probably know a thing or two.

It's just that Mrs. Zhao is very wary, and she is indifferent to people. I'm afraid she is not as easy to approach as Miss Zhao... Seeing this, Yan Fei secretly thought that if she could change her feelings a little and make her relax her guard up.

While thinking this way, he felt a disturbance in his body.He lowered his head to look at himself, who had also lost his entity and turned into a mass of ever-changing light strings.

At this time, he suddenly discovered that there were two Shui Langjun crawling among his complicated light strings? !

Could it be that the last time he agreed to be possessed by Shui Langjun in the cabin, he was not cleaned up? !

No wonder the master said that once Shui Langjun is separated, it will be difficult to catch... These two have been lurking in his love string for so long, and he only discovered it now.

Just as he was about to pull the two worms out, a consciousness suddenly came to his mind, "We can help you!"

Yan Fei was taken aback.

Is this the voice of Mr. Shui Lang?

He couldn't help but sneered, "Are you begging me?"

"Your spiritual power is very strong, and we only have two, which will not affect you! Don't hand us over! We are willing to be at your disposal!"

"Send? What can you do for me?"

"Didn't you just say that you want to modify that human's love string?" Shui Langjun asked urgently.
