When they arrived at Zhewei Qiu, Shen Yi didn't look for too long. He soon saw a tomb bag. In front of the tomb bag, there was a very simple wooden sign with four words written on it.
Lu Zhen's tomb.
The sky was overcast and it began to rain lightly.
Grass sprouted from the soil on the tomb. This tomb had been there for some time.
Hejian Chuyun looked up and opened the light yellow oil-paper umbrella. She thought Shen Yi would stay here for a while, but she didn't expect that Shen Yi just glanced at it, then turned around and left.
"Take me to see the Cao family and where the Chu family is."
When he said this, a real murderous intention flashed in Shen Yi's eyes!
She didn't say anything, and walked with him towards the town at the foot of the mountain under an umbrella, passing through alleys. The streets were bustling with people, smoke was rising from the kitchens, and the sound of children playing made people just want to indulge in the fireworks of this world.
He didn't speak and she was silent.
They just walked through this long street, leaving everything to Shen Yi to see.
Bang!
The small door was suddenly kicked open, and a person flew out, slamming to the ground, wailing loudly.
"Master, I didn't mean it..."
"You little slave, get out of here right now, Master. If you don't do it right, I'll kill you!"
A young man wearing fine grosgrain quickly walked out from behind the door, holding a jade stick with blood on one end.
The servant who was thrown out ignored the pain on his body and climbed up from the ground like a bereaved dog.
"Yes, yes, little one, get it done right away!"
"roll!"
The servant staggered away while covering the fracture caused by the jade stick. The young man holding the jade stick couldn't help but snorted coldly when he saw this. Someone next to him said: "Young Master, let's go back quickly, otherwise I will scold you again." ”
Snapped!
This person's kind reminder did not earn the other party a good look, and he slapped him in the face with a very clear sound.
"What's the matter with you? Shut your mouth!" The young man scolded angrily, and then walked back. As he walked, he muttered dissatisfiedly: "Isn't it just a maid who died? There is something in this young master's yard. There are hundreds of them, why not give a hundred to the Tsurumi clan?"
"Master..."
"shut up!"
"My father has really become an old fool in recent years. We have so many shops and we give to people as they are told!"
"Let me tell you, my monthly payment next month is not even enough to fill the gap between my teeth! Isn't it?"
"Yes Yes Yes……"
"No wonder people say that Lu Zhen is a disaster star, bringing bad luck to my Chu family. I *you* are a thief..."
boom!
The small door was slammed shut, and the young man left cursing, and his voice gradually disappeared on the other side of the wall. What he didn't notice was that a cold gaze kept watching his figure until he disappeared without a trace. Just took it back.
Tonight, he will have nothing!
"Do you know where Qiu Yu's home is?"
Shen Yi in the distance raised his head and asked He Jian Chuyun.
She said nothing and turned to leave. Shen Yi followed silently, watching her holding an umbrella and walking in the light rain.
When he reached a dark alley, he made sure that there was no one around and said, "You care so much about your maid. You investigated so clearly."
"No."
"Um?"
"I just lived in Renxi Town when I was a child, so I am familiar with it."
"Qiu Yu is the maid you personally selected?"
"no."
"Then how do you know where she lives?"
"I can talk." After saying these four words, Tsurumi Chuyun, who was walking in front, just walked out of the alleyway and immediately called out to an old man who was passing by.
"My dear, stay here."
The old man who was stopped turned around and looked at her with his wrinkled face for a while. After noticing her white clothes with extremely exquisite materials, he almost kneeled down instinctively, but she was caught in time. Pulled.
"No need for this, I just want to ask you something."
"Aunt... girl... what do you want to ask about?"
When He saw Chuyun didn't say anything immediately, a silver dollar appeared out of thin air in his hand and placed it in the old man's hand.
When the other party saw this, his face turned red with excitement.
"This...this is impossible!"
"Take it."
"Okay... okay, just ask that girl. As long as I know something, I will definitely tell you."
"Is there a family named Lu around here?"
"The person named Lu..." The old man immediately recalled something after hearing this. His eyes quickly lit up and he said: "There are not many people named Lu around here. The one I am most familiar with is a person named Lu Wei. I owe Hongtailou a hundred taels of silver. Some time ago, Hongtailou sent people to collect the debt, but several lives were lost."
"Repaying debts is a matter of course. If you say that Lu Wei deserves it, wouldn't he be fine if he has repaid the money already? I heard that Lu Wei has a younger sister who works as a maid in a wealthy family in Yunqiu City. She can do it all year round. I sent seven or eight taels of silver, and now it’s better. Originally, only two of the family members died, and I still had to trouble the host’s family to solve the problem. If you ask me, this Lu Wei is a disaster!”
"It's far away...I wonder if this is the person the girl is looking for?"
He Jian Chuyun listened quietly. After finishing, he nodded and asked, "This is Lu Wei I'm looking for. Do you know where this person lives?"
"Of course I know!" The old man turned around and faced back, pointing with his finger, "Go forward, go to the third intersection and then go right. There is a stone slope. There is a noodle stall at the end of the stone slope. Next to the stall is a road. After passing the alley, go right and within sixty steps, you will find Lu Wei's residence. There is a broken stone mill at the door of his yard."
"Thank you." Tsurumi Chuyun nodded and walked along the route mentioned by the other party.
Shen Yi kept quiet. When he passed by the old man, he also looked over and couldn't help but murmured: "It's really strange that there is such a small contracted beast."
Just as the old man said, after walking through the alley next to the noodle stall and walking no more than sixty steps, I saw a broken stone mill in front of the door.
He Jian Chuyun lowered his head and glanced at Shen Yi, then stretched out his hand and pushed the door open with a click.
What came into view was an empty yard. In front of the main house was a white silk stained with dust, and there was a sense of sadness all around.
There was a child squatting in a corner of the wall not far away. He must be about six years old. He was wearing rough dark brown clothes. He was holding a thin stick in his hand and was tapping a pile of dead grass in front of him out of boredom.
Seeing someone coming in, he turned around and asked, "Who are you?"
When He saw that Chu Yun was silent, Shen Yi took the first step forward and asked, "Is your aunt's name Lu Zhen?"
"Wow! You can actually talk?"
"Who is this big sister?"
The child was very innocent. His face showed no defense against Shen Yi and He Jian Chuyun. Instead, he was full of curiosity, especially for Shen Yi, a "little beast" who could only talk. He quickly answered.
Shen Yi glanced at the old witch next to her. She didn't answer the child, but just looked at everything around her.
He didn't bother to explain to the other party why he could speak, and said: "We are your aunt's friends."
"My aunt's friends, are you here to see my aunt?"
"Um."
"My aunt has gone back to a far away place. Daddy said she will not come back."
"Then where is your daddy?"
"He is in the backyard. You can talk. Are you the legendary monster? I heard that only monsters can speak like us. And this big sister, you are so beautiful. You are from heaven. Fairy? Do you know where my mother, aunt, mother-in-law and father-in-law have gone? "
"I also want to go to that fun place with them."
The innocent words made Tsurumi Chuyun's eyes tremble twice. Just when he opened his mouth to say something, the door of the main room was suddenly opened, and a man with a cane hurriedly moved out. As soon as he saw Tsurumi Chuyun , and immediately staggered over.
When she got off the steps, she lost her grip on the crutch and rolled in front of her.
Ignoring the pain in his body, he quickly knelt down on the ground.
The man's right leg was empty, and the pants on one side were tied in a knot. When he knelt down, his body was tilted, and one hand supported the other side of his body.
Shen Yi observed the other person carefully. This person should be Qiu Yu's second brother Lu Wei. He was estimated to be no more than thirty years old, but his hair on the temples was white and there was a trace of sadness between his eyebrows.
Shen Yi said nothing and looked at Lu Wei.
As soon as he knelt down, he raised his other hand and slapped himself again and again, each time harder.
Snapped!
Snapped!
Snapped!
…
"Princess! It's all my fault! I shouldn't have gone to Hongtai Tower. If I hadn't gone, Qiu Yu wouldn't have died, our Lu family wouldn't have ended up like this, and we wouldn't have troubled my little sister's family... Blame me...it's my fault..."
The young Lu Qi was a little confused when he saw his father suddenly acting like this. He subconsciously moved forward to help Lu Wei up, but as soon as he touched him, he was pushed to the ground.
"Now Xiaoqi and I are the only ones left in this big family, the Chu family, the Cao family..."
"The matter is over. If I remember correctly, you all saw it when Manager Wang took out the deed of betrayal. The moment the deed of betrayal was signed, Qiu Yu no longer belonged to your Lu family. What happened after her death, It's all up to me, Tsurumi, and I won't help you get revenge, so don't take any chances."
As if he had seen what Lu Wei was thinking, Tsurumi Chuyun interrupted him coldly before she could finish her words. Her words also made Lu Wei's body soften, and the expression in his eyes turned pale as he looked at her. dim down.
"Princess Princess."
He wanted to say something more, but when He saw Chuyun turned around and left, Shen Yi didn't stay either. He sighed inwardly and turned around to follow.
Looking at her back, Lu Wei's eyes showed despair.
After despair, he propped up his body with his hands.
"Xiao Qi, help dad pass the crutches."
"good……"
Lu Qi obediently picked up the crutch and handed it to Lu Wei. Watching him stand up, Lu Qi said, "Daddy, that was a monster just now, a monster that can talk."
"A talking monster..." Lu Wei repeated, but how could he be curious about a talking monster now? He turned around and walked away in despair.
Everything around him completely lost its color in his eyes.
…
"So, have you remembered the residences of the Cao and Chu families?" He Jian Chuyun asked not long after leaving Lu Wei's house.
Shen Yi didn't say a word. Seeing that he didn't speak, He Jian Chuyun also fell into silence.
And what he has been thinking about is Qiu Yu's death.
Why?
Why? Why did he die so plainly?
It was like a burst of dust falling into the sea, calm and calm.
It's like killing a chicken yesterday. Everyone knows about it, but no one will mention it the next day.
There was no sadness in his heart, and he couldn't understand that the person who died was none other than Qiu Yu, a person who was good to him.
Why is this happening?
…
At night, there was a loud thunder, and silver-white lightning pierced the sky. The rain gradually became heavier, and the hazy rain curtain obscured people's sight.
In front of the Cao family's mansion, two servants on vigil were awakened by the thunder. They suddenly raised their heads and looked around. When they saw nothing, they narrowed their eyes and continued to take a nap.
But the next moment, one of them saw something, rubbed his eyes and looked forward.
"what is that?"
"What?"
"Look ahead."
After waking up the servant who was keeping vigil with him, both of them looked forward. In the darkness with the patter of rain, a figure slowly appeared.
It was a strange creature about the size of a dog, but with a pair of wings.
The two servants looked at each other and quickly pointed the long sticks in their hands.
"What? Stop!"
"Contract beast?"
"Whose life god is your master? Didn't your master tell you that this is the Cao Mansion?"
"Go quickly!"
The two men held the long stick tightly, and then pushed it forward. In the darkness, Shen Yi's eyes emitted a dim yellow light. As if he couldn't hear the two people talking, he came straight to them.
The two of them looked at each other again, and one of them turned to the back and took out a bell from the door. This was an item specially designed to drive away contracted beasts. But as soon as his hand got the bell, Shen Yi spoke.
"Are all the people from your Cao Mansion here?"
"Who is speaking?"
"I."
"Huh? Are you talking?"
"Are you a monster?"
"Answer me first, are everyone in the Cao Mansion here?"
Shen Yi's deep voice continued to sound, and the two of them were stunned for a while without answering.
"Quickly, go and invite Uncle Deng. A monster is coming to your door."
Seeing that they were ignoring him, Shen Yi took a deep breath and shook his head, "Okay, I'm too lazy to wait. I'll treat you to a barbecue tonight." The servant didn't hear clearly and asked doubtfully: "What did you say?"
But what responded to them was no longer Shen Yi's words, but the scarlet dragon's breath that instantly filled the entire field of vision!
Wow!
At the moment they were wrapped in the dragon's breath, their bodies immediately vaporized, and the terrifying heat wave lifted the high wall into the air!
All kinds of smoke and dust instantly filled half of the mansion!
The various potted plants in the back shrank, turned black and turned into ashes! Mixed with the rain!
The courtyard wall was blown away by the dragon's breath, and soon someone in the mansion noticed something strange at the door, and immediately shouted: "Monster! There is a monster!"
"All the servants go to the warehouse to get things done and kill this monster for me!"
"Hurry up!"
"People over there, go inform the master!"
"..."
Late at night, the originally quiet Cao family mansion suddenly became noisy. People who had turned off their lights and were sleeping around heard the noise and lit their lights one after another and went out to check the situation.
But Shen Yi had already rushed in. His body returned to normal size and he completely ran over the building!
When Ye Yu comes into contact with the dragon's breath, the black smoke billows, making the dragon flame look like a pillar of blood sweeping back and forth, razing everything in its path to the ground!
One building after another was turned into ashes by the burning dragon flames. Even under the heavy rain, the fire still reached the sky!
People screamed one after another. At this moment, Shen Yi seemed to be a murderous god, killing everyone he met!
As more and more people died under his dragon's breath or claws, Shen Yi's eyes slowly turned red.
The rain was getting heavier, but it couldn't extinguish the surging dragon's breath, nor wash away the strong smell of burning.
Someone finally arrived, but they arrived too late, and what was left to them was the charred ruins in front of them.
