Chapter 1440 Copper Coin
The fat man’s face turned ugly. He understood. This was asking people like them to steal things from ghosts, or resentful ghosts like the First Lady. You can imagine the difficulty.
The most deceptive thing is that they have to dress up as the Marquis of Zhennan. It would be fine if they were a loving couple, but judging from the clues integrated now, I am afraid that General Guo still has the first The death of his wife is inseparable from the Marquis of Zhennan.
"Of course, my lady's hydrangeas are not that easy to get." The woman changed the subject, "You need to pay attention, you are stealing the hydrangeas, not taking them, let alone robbing them. You must not be beaten by the lady in the process. I found that you can only approach the lady from behind.”
“And please remember that you must not expose your back to the lady, otherwise the consequences will be dire.”
When the woman said these words, she looked at Jiang Cheng and the others with an indescribable feeling, as if in the woman's eyes, Jiang Cheng and the others were already dead, and it was completely unnecessary to talk to dead people.
"Where is the hydrangea? Will your lady always stay near the hydrangea?"
Jiang Cheng took advantage of the situation and raised his own question, but like Yao, Shunyu and Yao, Shunyu's treatment, women were completely There was no response, or to be precise, it was like he didn't hear it at all.
Seeing this, Li Bai gently patted Jiang Cheng's leg and shook his head slightly, "You don't need to ask, she is the disaster-preventing girl raised by the first lady's family since she was a child. She is born with a bad destiny. , I don’t think she could hear what you said.”
Sure enough, even if Li Bai didn’t lower his voice too much, the woman close at hand still didn’t react at all.
Later, the woman seemed to have thought of something and lifted up the thick hair on her head. At this moment, Zhang Qizheng, who was closest to her, was obviously stunned. He saw that there were no ears at all under the hair on both sides of the woman.
The woman did not do this to show off anything. There was a red rope under the woman's neck, and the red rope jingled with some copper coins hanging underneath.
Tear off the red rope and carefully distribute the copper coins to everyone's hands one by one, and the woman happens to have one left in her hand at the moment.
Looking at the copper coin in his hand, Jiang Cheng found that there was a very thin groove on the copper coin, which almost divided the copper coin into two. This was obviously man-made. If he applied force along the groove, it should be able to Break the copper coin.
The woman picked up the copper coin in her hand, "This copper coin can help you sense the location of the lady. As for how to use it, you will know after trying it. What I want to say is that you must protect this copper coin carefully. It can be lost, but it must not be damaged. It represents your destiny tonight.”
Next, under the arrangement of the woman, everyone pricked their fingers and dripped blood on their own copper coins. Later, the woman used a small awl-like tool to carefully carve a few times on each copper coin. .
Everyone didn't notice anything in the first two. After all, the woman moved very quickly, the copper coins were not big, and the lines engraved on them were not obvious. But as the number of times increased, Jiang Cheng felt more and more that the lines on them were not obvious. The lines were familiar, and finally, he thought that the strange lines were very similar to the ghostly symbol on the map.
It was the map brought by Yao, Shun and Yu.
As Jiang Cheng raised his head and looked at Yao Shunyu, Yao Shunyu naturally discovered the mystery at this moment, and then calmly nodded to Jiang Cheng, indicating that there was nothing wrong with his guess.
The originally complicated clues began to intersect at this moment. If you can survive tonight, then after you get the hydrangea, you can completely uncover the mystery of the late lady's identity.
After the woman finished carving the last copper coin, she carefully put the copper coin back into her hand. This action really attracted Jiang Cheng's attention, because the last copper coin did not belong to any of them, but was left in the woman's hand. That one.
The woman didn’t need to carry out the mission tonight. She left a copper coin and drew ghostly symbols on the copper coin. What did she want to do?
Before Jiang Cheng could think about it, the woman seemed to have suddenly changed. After twitching a few times, her face turned gray at a speed visible to the naked eye. Then she stood up and hurried away unceremoniously. They go.
He drove them out of the mourning hall all the way, and then slammed the door with a loud bang.
Through the door, the woman screamed in a painful and angry voice: "The only scope of your activities tonight is within the Marquis' Mansion. Once you leave the Marquis' Mansion, you will definitely die. And remember, don't even think about going to the backyard of the Yin Mansion, where There is not only a lady, but something more terrifying exists!”
"Before dawn, you must steal the hydrangea before dawn. I want to remind you that tomorrow will dawn very early, so you must hurry up."
After these roars, there was no one in the mourning hall. Any sound, and what's even weirder is that all the candles in the mourning hall have been extinguished, not one by one, and in a short period of time, almost all of them were extinguished in an instant. This strange scene really made everyone feel sad. Chills.
Looking at the silent and dark mourning hall, everything just seemed to be an illusion, as if the so-called woman had never appeared at all, but Jiang Cheng reached into his pocket, and the copper coin in his pocket actually existed. He spoke, telling that everything just now was definitely not an illusion.
Lu Qin and Shao Tong spoke at the same time, but Jiangcheng and others quickly walked out, not giving them a chance to speak, in case their thoughts were already revealed.
As the door opened, most of the people outside had left, leaving only a young man standing outside who was freezing or scared.
Seeing a few people from Jiangcheng coming out, the waiter seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and immediately came forward, "Everyone. Masters, you have finally come out. General Yuwen asked me to tell you that I will have to work hard for you tonight. Tonight, Lord Hou read As for my relationship with the late madam, I am waiting for the good news from all the masters outside the house built for the late madam."
"By the way, General Yuwen also told me that the master of Tianshi Mansion said, Dear masters tonight The range of activities is within the Madam's mansion. Do not go out. There may be important clues in the backyard of the mansion, which you can focus on exploring."
"Also, there is still some time before the masters can use their magical powers. Time, please go back to Madam's residence and rest by yourself."
After saying that, without giving Jiang Cheng a chance to ask questions, the man turned around and ran away, but Yao and Shunyu caught him with quick eyes and hands. Lived.
Yao and Shun Yu's hands were so strong that the man grinned in pain. Yao and Shun Yu stretched out his hand and said to the man: "Your left hand has been in the cuff and refused to be taken out. What are you hiding?"
"No, no"
Seeing that the waiter was not honest, Yao Shunyu didn't hesitate. He took the waiter's left hand and took out a lightning strike wooden sign with beautiful thunder cloud patterns carved on it. (End of this chapter)
