When he said this, Jiang Nianjiao's eyes only looked at the woman. The woman was also embarrassed, "That... I mean, we really didn't hear any movement at that time. If it weren't for that, we would have It’s impossible to wait until that late to report it to the police.”
Then the woman just lowered her head and said, "But it's not necessarily true that the gambler was really unjust. After all, although the gambler likes to gamble, apart from petty theft, he has indeed never done any further evil deeds. What's more, he and his wife have always had a good relationship, and he shouldn't be the kind of pervert who likes to play with men."
Having said this, the woman then only said, "But the death of the couple was really tragic, so this case is quite a sensation in Leiyang. Even teahouse storytellers will often use this joke." Talk about something. And this house naturally became a veritable haunted house."
"Speaking of it, this house is also evil. A few years ago, some uninformed residents bought this house to live in. However, they all left for various reasons after living there for two or three days. This is really scary."
After hearing what the other party said, Jiang Nianjiao only nodded in cooperation.
In fact, after she heard about the haunted house, she didn't want to hear it anymore. She probably didn't want to hear anymore. It was estimated that there were just rumors about strange powers and chaos, and the facts were just as Jiang Nianjiao expected. They were indeed rumors about strange powers and chaos.
"The first couple who moved here had only lived in this house for three days, and the door of their house was splashed with fishy and smelly chicken blood. The chicken blood was all bloody. The handwriting of fate. Even their child once saw a male ghost in green passing by. After the couple encountered so many bad things, they came to us to inquire about the news, and it was only after we inquired that she Knowing that this place turned out to be a haunted house, we also found out that Mrs. Fangya had no good intentions and never told people that it was a haunted house every time she sold the house."
"That's why when we later meet such residents, in order to avoid them suffering a loss, we will secretly remind them of this before they pay. There are also some who do not believe in evil, but most of them leave after staying for two or three days."
Then the woman sighed again, "It's just for you. I went out to the stall today, but I didn't have time to tell you in advance. Otherwise, you can't be deceived by this Fang Ya Granny."
Jiang Nianjiao heard this but said nonchalantly, "This matter has nothing to do with it, but I still want to thank you for reminding me."
Seeing that Jiang Nianjiao didn't seem to care, the woman naturally just said, "It's good that the young master and madam are not afraid, but in this kind of house, madam should be careful not to live here."
Then the woman just said, "Of course, madam, if you are afraid, you can actually cancel the rent on the grounds that they did not tell you that this house is a haunted house. Then Mrs. Fang Ya knows that she is in the wrong and will not talk too much about it." You are entangled.”
After hearing what the woman said, Jiang Nianjiao naturally just thanked the woman. Then the woman just stayed here to chat with the two of them for a few words. After the greetings were over, the woman also left and returned. Went to his own home.
The night was already cold at this time, and after hearing the woman tell such a horrifying story, Jiang Nianjiao and Zhao Yanzhen only felt that the story seemed to be a bit chilly in addition to being horrifying.
However, although the two of them were not timid people, because they suspected that the murderer from three years ago might not be brought to justice, Zhao Yanzhen only let the secret guards guard them for one night.
However, the secret guards kept watch all night and saw nothing unusual in the room. For several days in a row, they did not see anything unusual in the room. Therefore, the couple did not take this matter seriously. . However, after staying here for a while, Jiang Nianjiao discovered that except for the couple next door, there seemed to be no other neighbors living here. Jiang Nianjiao almost had to go through three or four neighbors before he could see a single resident. , and the resident was just a deaf old woman.
However, there were many of them, so Jiang Nianjiao was not afraid of this.
After settling in Leiyang, the two began to visit the scenic spots near Leiyang.
Leiyang can be considered a city with many cultural sights, so if they really want to see these, they can only see them in half a month. @
So after discussing with Zhao Yanzhen, Jiang Nianjiao decided to go to Leiyang Old City to watch first.
Because the old city site is needed
They were going out of the city, and the distance was not too far, so they only planned to rest in Leiyang Old City for one night that day.
After making this decision, the group of people naturally went to Leiyang Old City.
Jiang Nianjiao always thought that the old city must be very desolate. However, when she arrived in the old city, Jiang Nianjiao discovered that although most of the addresses here had been burned down during the Soul King Rebellion, some buildings in the south of the city were still left. People who are willing to move only live in the south of the city, and there are not many people who come here to watch.
Therefore, it was quite lively here. Even when Jiang Nianjiao and Zhao Yanzhen climbed to the top of the old city of Leiyang, they were still at the top of the city. They saw a group of young men and women arguing at the top of the city about what happened to Leiyang during the Lingwang Rebellion. Should the magistrate of Yang County defend Leiyang and not retreat?
Some people think it shouldn't be. After all, the county magistrate of Leiyang refused to retreat. After cutting off the reinforcements, the city was captured by the Ling King. The county magistrate's persistence only indirectly led to the residents of Leiyang City being destroyed. The Spirit King was almost slaughtered.
The few residents who survived finally escaped by hiding in cellars.
If the county magistrate of Leiyang had pretended to surrender from the beginning, the people of Leiyang would not have been slaughtered, and the population of the surrounding Taizhou and Su'an would not have filled up Leiyang. And when the imperial reinforcements arrive half a month later, wouldn't it be nice for him to cooperate with the outside world?
Others fully affirmed the Leiyang County Magistrate. After all, the county magistrate of Leiyang refused to retreat. One of the reasons was to show their integrity. The other reason was that in the battle of Leiyang, the magistrate only led a group of old, weak, sick and disabled to defend Leiyang for a whole month. moon. Moreover, the county magistrate did not try to ask for help, but the surrounding counties refused to help. If the sergeants had not run out of ammunition and food in Leiyang later, and the politicians in the court were busy with internal fighting and various delays, the county magistrate would not have been able to help. Ling could actually wait for reinforcements.
When faced with this kind of old historical data, everyone naturally quotes scriptures and makes their own opinions.
While they were arguing, Jiang Nianjiao discovered two familiar figures among them.
The two people did not participate in the discussion of that group of people, but it could be seen that they came together with that group of people.
Jiang Nianjiao recognized the young man at a glance as her cousin Du Zechi, and besides Du Zechi, the girl seemed to be Cui Lingwei.
Jiang Nianjiao had long heard that Cui Lingwei had returned to her hometown, and Du Zechi was arranged to see her off.
But Jiang Nianjiao obviously didn't expect to see these two people here. After all, she had heard that Cui Lingwei's hometown seemed to be in Huatai Mountain City.
If she wanted to go home, she should still be in Huatai Mountain City at this moment.
Although the distance between Huaitai Mountain City and Leiyang is not too far, the distance between the two places is not too close either.
So Jiang Nianjiao just looked at them, but did not go up to say hello.
In the end, Cui Lingwei felt someone was watching her, so she couldn't help but turn around. As she turned around, she soon spotted Jiang Nianjiao.
When she saw Jiang Nianjiao, she couldn't help but pull Du Zechi's sleeve.
Du Zechi was pulled by his sleeves and couldn't help but look at Cui Lingwei, "What's wrong with Lingwei?"
Cui Lingwei just whispered, "Is that your cousin in front of me?"
Upon hearing this question, Du Zechi immediately put away the snack in his hand, and then looked forward.
When he saw Jiang Nianjiao, he could only walk to Jiang Nianjiao's side.
"Cousin, why are you here?" he asked in a low voice.
Jiang Nianjiao only said, "We decided to stay in Leiyang for a while, and when we had nothing to do, we decided to walk around."
After hearing this, Du Zechi whispered, "So that's it, brother-in-law doesn't have to go to court?"
Jiang Nianjiao whispered, "He asked for leave."
Then Jiang Nianjiao glanced at Du Zechi and Cui Lingwei with a smile and said, "Zechi, Miss Lingwei's hometown is not in Huaitai Mountain City, why are you in Leiyang now?"
Hearing this, Du Zechi didn't say anything, but Cui Lingwei took the initiative and said, "My sister-in-law's natal family left her here, so now my sister-in-law and I live in Leiyang."
"Is your sister-in-law from Leiyang?" Jiang Nianjiao asked in surprise.
Cui Lingwei shook her head, and then whispered, "Sister-in-law's mother-in-law's family also
Huaitai Mountain City, but after a landslide disaster the year before last, my sister-in-law moved to a place near my home with the help of my family. "
"Oh? Who is your sister-in-law's family?" Jiang Nianjiao asked curiously.
Cui Lingwei whispered, "Leiyang Luo family."
Hearing this, Jiang Nianjiao immediately had an idea in his mind.
The Luo family in Leiyang can be regarded as a medium-sized aristocratic family. Although there is no one in their family who is a public minister, the Luo family has always had a place in the court.
I didn't expect that Cui's natal family would actually be a branch of the Luo family in Leiyang.
"The head of the Luo family has now taken the initiative to keep Lingwei and only let her play in the family." When Du Zechi talked about this, he was obviously a little unhappy.
While he was gloomy, several young men and women who had been talking loudly just now noticed that Cui Lingwei seemed to be talking to someone, and they immediately took the initiative to greet him.
It must be said that these young men and women are all well-born, the men are handsome and the women are beautiful. The most rare thing is that these people can be seen as local celebrities at a glance.
After this group of people approached, one of them, a handsome young man wearing a crescent white round collar robe, took the initiative and said to Cui Lingwei, "Cousin Lingwei, who are these two?"
Du Zechi's face became even more embarrassed when he heard the other party calling Cui Lingwei cousin.
Cui Lingwei was obviously a little confused after hearing this, how to introduce Jiang Nianjiao and Zhao Yanzhen.
