Chapter 11: The Ghost of Luzhou (I)


In this way, Gan Feihong recognized Sun Yihong as his eldest brother in a daze.Of course, Sun Yihong is well versed in human feelings and sophistication, and he also knows how to stabilize people's hearts, so he promised Gan Feihong some benefits at that time - Sun Yihuan said to Gan Feihong, as long as I see our eldest brother Hao Jingyu, I will definitely give Brother Gan a few good words in front of him, and when the time comes, you will not only be able to enter the Tao, but no matter how you do, you will have to rank into the "Universe" in the "Universe Wilderness".This cake painting made Gan Feihong so happy that he almost knelt down and kowtowed to Brother Sun.He didn't think about it......

Even if Sun Yihuan is really Hao Jingyu's brother, he may not see Hao Jingyu for the next year and a half, and what will happen after a year and a half?

Maybe they were all wiped out by the imperial court at that time.But in front of him, Sun Yihuan really enjoyed the treatment of a big brother.After worshipping the eldest brother, not only did they not rob Sun Yihe, but they also didn't move a single bit to the other passengers on the boat, and went directly back to their own small boat, escorting their big boat all the way to the ferry on the other side, and then dispersed.And after Sun Yihe and Huang Donglai came ashore, Gan Feihong also sent a few brothers who were in charge of keeping an eye (water thieves usually put some sharp-eyed and fast-legged minions on the shore to find targets in advance, and Sun Yixiang and Huang Donglai were targeted because they looked like two second ancestors), and specially sent two brown brocades to "Brother Sun"; This kind of brocade is the mark agreed between the water 6 thieves on both sides of the Yangtze River, as long as you tie this to your body, it means that it is your own person, and your peers along the road will not start when they see you.With this protection, Sun Yihe and Huang Donglai's next journey was also a lot smoother, and the two drove their horses around Chaohu Lake in the north, and after two more days, they arrived at Luzhou City.This place, belonging to Nanjing Zhili Luzhou Mansion, a thousand-year-old city, has many scenic spots.After staying at the inn, Huang Donglai proposed that it was rare to come and wanted to take a look at Xiaoyaojin by the way, but Sun Yihuan didn't want to go, and said that he wanted to go to you.Huang Donglai asked him: "Is it because your old Sun family was messed up here by Zhang Wenyuan before, so you refused to go?"

”Sun Yihuan replied to him: "Yes, I don't want to go to this sad place. ”But in fact, with Brother Sun's understanding of the half bucket of water in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", as well as his perception of China's geographical reversal, he can neither remember the allusion of "Zhang Wenyuan's powerful shock Xiaoyaojin", nor does he know that Xiaoyaojin is in Hefei (that is, Luzhou), he just doesn't want to go.So Huang Donglai decided to go over alone, and asked the "high-speed rail gang" here if there was a suitable ticket for them to buy.After Huang Donglai left, Sun Yihuan waited for a while, then locked the door, came to the bronze mirror in the room, and quietly took out a bottle of bone-setting medicine.Huang Donglai didn't know that the place where Sun Yihuan's back was slashed by Ma Si before was not completely healed today, and there was still a bruise that had not yet faded.Ma Si's ten-year sword technique was indeed not practiced in vain, if it weren't for the fact that he had lived too comfortably in the cottage over the years and had been slack in practice, he would have had to break a few bones if he went down with the knife at that time.Fortunately, Sun Yihuan's injury is not serious at the moment, and when he used to "sword and sword" with people in the fish market, he often organized or participated in large-scale fights, so he has long been accustomed to this kind of injury.In the past few days, Sun Yihuan has quietly medicated himself in his room; This is also his old problem, sometimes a little dead to save face, in fact, if he talks to Huang Dong, let Huang Donglai take out the secret healing medicine made by the Yellow Gate and apply it to him, he can be cured in three days at most, but he feels that he is a bit embarrassed to be injured by a bandit leader wearing a talisman armor, so he has not mentioned it.But then again, the battle of Zomazhai was, to a certain extent, also a lesson for Sun Yihe and Huang Donglai, who were just starting out of the rivers and lakes.The two of them had almost zero previous experience in the rivers and lakes, needless to say, Sun Yihuan needless to say, Huang Donglai also traveled all the way from Shuzhong to Jiangnan by high-speed rail gang, and it was not until he met Shen Youran outside Hangzhou that he did it for the first time, and he only dealt with miscellaneous fish.In their impressions, an existence like the "bandit leader" is not an opponent worth paying attention to......

However, Ma Si used his actions to tell them that you can't be careless when facing any seemingly bad opponent on the rivers and lakes.After all, there are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the people – you never know if you'll be beaten to death one day by a sweeping monk or a brothel runner.………… The words are divided into two ends, and it is said that Huang Donglai is coming.After leaving the inn, the first place he went to was the pharmacy.A few days ago, when he was teaching the villagers in Nanyuan Village to concoct "poison bombs", although most of the materials were from the village pharmacy, he still used some of his own inventory, otherwise he would not be able to make effective poisons with only the materials in a small village.Later, because his stay in Xuancheng was too short, he didn't have time to replenish.Right now, when he arrived in this Luzhou City, he wanted to prepare more medicinal materials, and then go back to the inn at night to prepare more pills for emergencies.After going to the pharmacy to place an order and leaving some money, he greeted the shopkeeper and asked them to prepare the things and pick them up in a few hours; Then, Huang Donglai walked leisurely.This Xiaoyaojin, more than 100 years ago was a bureaucratic tyrant surnamed Dou for private ownership, renamed "Dou Jiachi", and later passed down for several generations, the power of the Dou family is not good, and then changed a few masters, to this Yongtai years, fell into the hands of a rich man surnamed Zeng, his mansion is also next to Xiaoyaojin, built by the forest and water.Of course, Huang Donglai didn't know about this, he thought that the area around Xiaoyaojin was a park like his previous world, but he turned out to be ......

It was blocked by the courtyard wall.Although he can enter casually by relying on light skills, in broad daylight, he doesn't know whose land is in the wall, and if he directly turns into it, it will become a private house; Helplessly, he walked along the courtyard wall for a while, wanting to see the situation.After a short time, Huang Donglai walked to the gate of Zeng's mansion.Coincidentally, in front of the Zeng Mansion at this time, a group of people were surrounding to watch the excitement, gossiping and discussing.Huang Donglai squeezed through the crowd to the front to take a look, and saw several officials carrying corpses wrapped in straw mats coming out of the gate.It stands to reason that this big family should not have come out like this because someone died......

If someone in a large family dies, they have to cry first, then mourn, and report to the government; As for the dead body, first put it in the ancestral hall at home, at least three days of mortuary (some embalming treatment will be done, especially in summer), waiting for relatives and friends to come to the funeral, and at the same time quickly find a coffin shop and a master who specializes in sewing shrouds to make a wrap, and wait for three days to confirm that the person is dead (in ancient times, people who were often in shock were regarded as having died, and woke up when they were buried), and then put the dead in a shroud, put it in the coffin, and go out of the back door to the funeral.Until after the burial, when the eldest son or grandson holds the tablet and leads the mourning procession back to eat tofu rice, he has to take a different road than when he goes, and at this time he must enter through the front door......

And so on, the rules are very big.In those years, especially large families, they paid great attention to these, and it was very bad luck and disrespect to make a mistake in etiquette.However, if a subordinate dies, it is not so particular, usually take the straw mat first, and go out of the back door on the same day.If you meet a benevolent and righteous owner, I will send you to the ancestral hall at the entrance of the village, so I can buy a cheap coffin and bury it, and simply set up a monument; And if you meet the kind of rich and unkind, you will directly order someone to wrap you in a straw mat and take it to the cemetery to bury it shallowly......

If you are unlucky enough to bury it like this, you will have to be picked up by wild dogs that night and gnaw on a dead body.But today's battle is unusual.First, the government came to collect the body, which showed that there was a homicide......

That's another story.Secondly, the officials moved the corpses and walked through the main gate, could it be that the local magistrate deliberately did not save face for Master Zeng?

Huang Donglai listened to the conversation of the villagers next to him for a while, and realized that this should be impossible.According to what these people said, Lord Wang, the magistrate of the county here, treated Master Zeng as his father, not to mention how much benefit he had to take from the Zeng family every year, just because Master Zeng's in-laws were the books of the court, it was enough to make Lord Wang grovel and obey.So what's going on here?

When Huang Donglai was puzzled, those messengers had already shouted to drive away the crowd of onlookers and draw a road, and then, I saw them carrying the corpse wrapped in straw mats, and went straight to the Mingjiao Temple (also known as Mingjiao Temple, Mingjiao Platform), which was only two streets away from Zeng's mansion."

This old man, dare to ask which one is this singing?"

Huang Donglai is a curious person, and besides, he was originally hanging out today, and as soon as he saw a play to watch, he casually stopped an old man and asked."

Young man, a foreigner, huh?"

This kind of uncle who stands here in broad daylight and has nothing to do to watch the excitement, in fact, he is looking forward to someone looking for him to chew the root of his tongue, as soon as Huang Donglai asked, he replied with a fluttering eyebrow, "Heh......

It's a thing, it's evil. ”"Oh?"

Huang Donglai also showed a more curious look as the other party wished, "What is the matter?"

”"I'll tell you......"

The uncle deliberately lowered his voice and said with a mysterious expression, "This is the third one to be carried out this month......"

He looked left and right, as if someone really wanted to eavesdrop on him, "......

It is said that there are unclean things in this Zeng Mansion. ”"Something unclean?"

Huang Donglai frowned slightly, and asked tentatively, "You mean ......?"

"Tsk, what else do you want me to say?"

”The uncle said in a deep voice, "It's haunted." ”
