After Butler Liu said what he had to say, he left. After returning to the room, Su Tingting was still confused. According to Butler Liu, she needed to put on Xi Yao's costume and headdress at night, and also Put on makeup, dress up and stand on the stage to imitate Xi Yao's singing.
He said that this way he could attract Xiyao's soul and let her possess him, but... would he still have a way to survive?
"Brother Kuang, Mr. Chu, please think of a way!" Su Tingting was almost crying. Now only these two people can save herself.
Yang Xiao motioned for Su Tingting to sit down first, and then said earnestly: "Miss Su, I know you are anxious, but don't be anxious yet. Think about it from another angle. This matter may not be a bad thing."
Su Tingting stared at him suspiciously. She had already experienced how good Yang Xiao's play was just now, but now she didn't believe a single punctuation mark of Yang Xiao's words.
Seeing that Yang Xiao could not scare her alone, Kuang Hongyi also joined the battle, "Miss Su, Brother Chu's words are true. Think about it, if you don't sing, what will you be sent to do?"
Yang Xiao shrugged and made a motion like diving to retrieve something. The next second, Su Tingting shivered violently in fright.
"They...they'll make me go get the bodies!"
"It's not fishing." Yang Xiao corrected, "It's helping Xi Yao close those eyes that never look back. Oh, let me tell you, that body has been soaked in the water for 10 years, tsk tsk... It's probably soaked to death a long time ago, can you? It’s hard to even find the eyes.”
Horrible memories came to mind uncontrollably. Su Tingting remembered the ghost he saw in the reflection of the lake. Its whole body was swollen and rotten. The moment the ghost's face turned to look at him, Su Tingting's heart stopped.
It's the lesser of two evils, and if you have to choose between singing and getting into the water, it's better to sing.
Seeing that Su Tingting had accepted his fate, Yang Xiao and Kuang Hongyi finally felt relieved. After all, they were operating as a team. If Su Tingting refused to go to the opera, then the three of them would have to go into the water to retrieve the corpse together. Oh no, it was a gang. Happy eyes.
But it was impossible for Su Tingting to disagree. Yang Xiao had at least five ways to convince her. If she was too soft, there would be the hard one. If she was too hard, there would be Kuang Hongyi holding a candlestick.
After settling Su Tingting, Kuang Hongyi and Yang Xiao got together and studied the clues they got from Master Feng, "Brother Chu, have you noticed that when we mentioned the unborn child of the Second Young Mistress, Master Feng's attitude Very strange."
"There is indeed something wrong." Recalling the scene at that time, confusion appeared on Yang Xiao's face, "Master Feng seemed to be very sure that it would be a boy, and he was worried that we would continue to ask questions, so he ended the conversation in a hurry, citing physical reasons."
Kuang Hongyi poured a cup of tea for Yang Xiao, and then poured another cup for himself. He slowly tightened his grip on the tea cup, "It seems that the water in the Feng family is very deep. Master Feng still has something to hide from us."
Now that things have come to this, there are still things being hidden from them. Yang Xiao really can't imagine how many evil things the Feng family has done.
As for what Mr. Feng, the steward Liu, said, it was all Mr. Feng’s arrangement. They couldn’t persuade him even if they wanted to. These were all nonsense. When the old man died, this matter had not started yet. Xiyao was still alive and well. If he had the intention Stop it and it won't happen.
What kind of ancient fragments he got by chance? Yang Xiao suspected that this evil magic was found by Mr. Feng with all his efforts. Mr. Feng might not know about it at all, and his corpse was just a tool for Mr. Feng to cultivate happiness.
Three ancient sayings that have been passed down, now the last two have their origins, leaving only the first sentence, about the first girl not marrying outside, still unclear.
Yang Xiao and Kuang Hongyi put forward many hypotheses, but none of them fit perfectly, so they simply stopped guessing and took turns to rest before it was night.
The original plan today was to go out of the house to search for clues. Yang Xiao still had the address of the Yi son-in-law in his hand. He also wanted to visit the theater where the Bai family opera troupe used to perform, but the body of the third young master was still floating on the lake. What a terrible weather. It was so scary, so Butler Liu naturally refused to let them leave.
The sky outside was a bit gloomier again, it was still raining, and the dark clouds were getting lower. It was a scene before the end of the world, as if something terrible would happen soon.
The sorcery used by the Feng family was completely wrong. They were losing people one after another in the so-called prosperous year. According to Butler Liu, the business also plummeted. As for what the problem was, Yang Xiao didn't know.
In another room, Shi Guanming gently closed the window and turned around with a trace of panic on his face, "Brother Shi, the weather outside is getting more and more scary."
Shi Dali sat at the table, frowning slightly, "That thing in the lake is about to become a evil. It's so resentful that it even attracted the zombies in the water."
"Then... what should we do tonight?" Shi Guanming was really scared. His calves twisted when he thought of that scene. "Is it possible that we really have to go into the water and close the female ghost's eyes?"
Shi Dali glanced at him with some boredom, "Otherwise, do you think Kuang Hongyi and the others will go for us? Would they be so kind?"
"No, what I mean is, doesn't it also depend on Su Tingting's intention? Let her dress up as a ghost and sing in an opera. She will definitely not dare to go because she looks so cowardly."
"If she doesn't dare to sing a ghost play, then she dares to go into the water to look for corpses?" Shi Dali couldn't understand Shi Guanming's brain circuit at all. If he didn't need to be used, he would have been thrown out by him long ago. After a while, Shi Dali calmed down his anxiety. My mood and attitude have also become much gentler.
"Brother Shi, think about it. With the personalities of Kuang Hongyi and Chu Xi, even if Su Tingting doesn't go, they have many ways to force her to go. By the way, you have to be careful about Chu Xi, he is definitely not a newcomer. It must be an old player pretending to be someone else, just to make others relax their vigilance."
After a pause, Shi Dali lowered his voice with some warning: "I suspect that Kuang Hongyi and Chu Xi are in the same group. They knew each other before they came in. The two of them were in the dark and in the dark. Xu Su was the one who suffered from them. The poisonous hand of man.”
"They are the same as Ke Long. I'm afraid... I'm afraid they will attack us soon."
Hearing this, Shi Guanming became more and more nervous, "What should we do? Also, Brother Shi, how did you figure it out?"
Shi Dali sneered in his heart. Shi Guanming was not that stupid yet, but he had already thought of his words. Simple lies would not deceive anyone. Only nine truths and one lie would be hard to guard against. "Brother Shi, think about it carefully, did Kuang Hongyi ask Does Mr. Feng have a daughter?"
"Yes, that's right." Shi Guanming didn't know why.
"Then, what did Chu Xi say next? He joked that Mr. Feng was a prodigal in love. Maybe he had a child outside but Butler Liu didn't know about it." Shi Dali smiled mysteriously, "Dare you risk offending Butler Liu?" Don’t you think it’s strange to risk making such an inappropriate joke?”
