The old man nodded vigorously, "Yes, many people have seen it, they said that a whole team of paper horses ran over from the place where the moon rose, and rushed to the Han house, silently rushing into the wall, and the golden light emitted lit up the entire house, but in an instant, it was dark, not only that, but the lights of the entire house were all extinguished, I said, the Han house has always been brightly lit, but that day, it was as dark as a deserted tomb. ” "Wait, you said someone saw it, who was that person?"
Yan Niang asked with a frowning willow eyebrow.
"People?
Who is that," the old man turned his head and looked at his companion behind him, "is that what you said?"
” "No, no," the other old man waved his hand desperately, "it seems that the daughter-in-law of the Wang family said it." ” "No, I remember I heard about it from my brother-in-law."
Several people discussed for a while, and then they turned around, "My lord, it has been so long, and a few of us are old, who saw the paper horse is really not clear, please forgive me." ” "It's okay, I'll send someone to inquire again, old man, I've worked hard for you, we'll leave first."
After Cheng Muyou finished speaking, he was about to lead the horse, but Yan Niang stood still and didn't move, but took a step forward, "Old man, I want to ask one more question, before the Han family's accident, who had dealings with Han Zhiyuan?"
” Cheng Muyou's heart moved, and his footsteps also stagnated, he stood and listened carefully to the old man's answer.
But he only laughed, "Too close?
Han Zhiyuan likes to make friends, and he sings and dances every night, but he interacts with some dignitaries, and it will definitely not be us. ” Shi Jin and Shi Fei went into the village to inquire about the situation before the Han Zhai case, Cheng Muyou and Yan Niang sat by a well at the entrance of the village, looking at the clear well water inside, thinking about their own thoughts.
Yan Niang's shadow is also reflected in the well, she is wearing a crescent white dress today, and the whole person is about to be integrated with the well water, and the haze is a little unreal.
Suddenly, she touched her earlobe, on the thin white ear, the small petal-shaped pendant actually fell, Cheng Muyou reached out to take it, but the pendant had fallen into the water, stirring up layers of ripples.
The ripples gradually flattened, but the figure of another woman was reflected on the water, she was still wearing the ruby green clothes, sitting alone in the glazed pavilion in the garden of the Han House, playing with the braids on her shoulders, leisurely.
Suddenly, she turned her head towards Cheng Muyou, her eyes became as frightened as last time, she lifted her skirt and was about to leave, but her body moved a few times, but she found that her arm was grabbed by someone, so she could only turn her head around, and the fear in her eyes deepened.
"Your Excellency, Your Excellency, what are you doing?"
Yan Niang's voice seemed to come from the sky, Cheng Muyou moved, and found that he was rushing into the well water and stretched out an arm, as if the madman who grabbed the woman just now was himself.
"My lord, the pendant has been scooped up, this well is very shallow, and Lord Lao is worried."
She said as she put the pendant on.
"Miss Yan, I saw it."
Cheng Muyou said word by word, but his eyes drifted elsewhere.
"What did you see?"
"Kang Yun, don't hide it, I've seen two illusions today, it should be that Kang Yun girl, she seems to be avoiding me everywhere, as if I am the tiger in the mountains and can eat her."
Yan Niang lowered her head and thought for a while, "Adults don't know her, her behavior like this should just come from some kind of memory before her death, don't worry about it." ” As he was talking, the Shi brothers had already walked out of the village, and the two saluted, "My lord, no witnesses have been found." ” "No?"
Cheng Muyou stood up, his eyebrows locked into a Sichuan character, "How is it possible, only nine years have passed since this incident, even if that person is gone, there are always relatives who are still alive, how can it not be found." ” Shi Fei Shi Jin looked at each other, "The whole village has asked, but there is indeed no." ” Cheng Muyou glared at Jiuqu Village, which was already surrounded by twilight, "No one has seen it, but everyone knows that the Han Mansion was bloodied by something brought by the paper horse, which is also too absurd." ” "The first person to say that paper horses kill people, what if they are not from Jiuqu Village at all?"
Yan Niang said casually.
"Not a villager?
But you can see the situation of the Han house clearly?
If there is such a person, I would be suspicious of him. ” Yan Niang smiled, "I'm just guessing, don't take it to heart, maybe the paper horse killing is just a rumor, but one spread ten, ten spread hundreds, and there are many people, and everyone believes it." ” Thousands of paper horses stood on the wasteland, and the wind blew their gold leaf rattling, like a sea of gold, waiting to rush into the abyss of the dark night.
Cheng Muyou stood in the middle of these countless paper horses, his robes and these gold foils were densely attached, and his body seemed to be able to feel the slight coolness brought by them, and a wisp of throbbing that did not belong to the yang world.
Suddenly there was a long howl in his ears, which was deafening.
As if the paper horse had received an order, they opened their hooves and ran towards the dark night in the distance, their bodies turning into a blazing light.
The horses disappeared, and Cheng Muyou was thrown back into the inky night, he felt his heart beating hard, his throat was also burning, and his blood was all congealed in his two eyes.
He looked at the direction in which the paper horse disappeared, and his heart was surging with fear that he had never felt before, he really felt afraid, even on the battlefield back then, in the face of the enemy's armor and long knives, he had never been so afraid.
But now, nervousness and fear were like countless ants, burrowing into every corner of his body, gnawing at his internal organs and skin to the point of soreness and pain.
He stared anxiously into the distance, as if he was waiting for something, what was it?
It's so dark, it's a long night that can't be dissolved, it's a place where no living soul has set foot, what will come back from there?
Suddenly, with a long hiss, he saw a little golden light, the light became bigger and bigger, and in the dark night, it was particularly dazzling.
They're back.
Cheng Muyou clenched his fists, and the sound of horses' hooves sounded in his ears, from far to near, from small to large, like rolling thunder falling from the sky.
They stepped over his head, and tens of thousands of horsetails set off a hurricane that knocked him down like a dead leaf and threw him to the ground.
Then the horses ran to the other side, leaving him alone in the wilderness.
Is it a person?
Cheng Muyou got up from the ground, the fear in his heart reached the extreme, he knew that there was something beside him, it was brought from hell by a paper horse.
There was a "squirping" sound from behind, and he held his breath and turned his head sharply.
