The windows were covered with new paper, clean and bright, as if nothing happened last night.
Lin Zhu didn't believe that he had a dream last night. His forehead still hurt. When he got up, he looked at the bronze mirror and saw that the redness and swelling had subsided and turned into a more frightening purple color.
Since it was not a dream, there was only one possibility: someone or something came in while they were sleeping and repaired the broken window.
When he thought that there might be a female ghost or flower demon in the same room with him while he was sleeping last night, she might even bend down and put the face covered with black hair in front of him...
Thinking about this, even if Lin Zhu was not afraid of ghosts, he was so scared that he broke into a cold sweat.
Cheng Miao got up and went to the front hall to take a look. The window paper had indeed been replaced. The flower demon was quite thoughtful, so they didn't have any evidence to prove what happened last night.
"Okay, this also shows that the flower demon in the dungeon is very restricted by the rules when attacking people, otherwise he would have stabbed us to death with a tree trunk." Cheng Miao let out a long breath and signaled Lin Zhu not to think too much.
Lin Zhu is a big-hearted kid. Hearing Cheng Miao's words, he felt that this was the truth and he felt relieved.
Cheng Miao did not ask his servants to help him. He dressed and washed himself neatly. It was not until the two of them were sitting together drinking porridge that he expressed his doubts, "I think this is not the first time this happened last night."
Lin Zhu was eating a steamed bun. Hearing what Cheng Miao said, he quickly swallowed what was in his mouth. He didn't want to be too anxious to swallow it too quickly and choked and his face turned red. He took a few mouthfuls of porridge before suppressing it. "Why?"
"You think, when Chang Dayong came to see me, many servants saw him. My master found a family friend to join him during his lunch break. No one even talked about this kind of thing."
"Even though the government is strict, I have observed specifically that when I asked the maid to come and take away Chang Da's used cup, the maid's expression was indifferent or even resistant."
"In addition, Chang Dayong seems to be greedy and lustful now. This will definitely not be the first time. So where are the people who were harassed by him before? Chang's servants change every half a year. Do those people know something? ?”
Cheng Miao had almost eaten, and the chopsticks in his hand poked at the buns in the drawer. Lin Zhu looked at the pockmarks on the buns, "If this servant knows what will happen, he doesn't want to have anything to do with us. , then it is possible to avoid it. But the servants all know that something is not right with Mrs. Chang, wouldn’t Master Chang know? "
Cheng Miao's eyes flashed, recalling a detail from yesterday, "No, when I mentioned Ge Jin's beauty, Chang Dayong's first reaction was fear, which means Chang Dayong definitely knew that there was something wrong with Ge Jin, but he didn't dare to say anything to her. What’s the reaction to this?”
"In other words, in the dungeon, Mrs. Chang will never throw her child away because Mr. Chang doubted her, because Mr. Chang has doubted her a long time ago." Lin Zhu's mind was spinning quickly, and as time went by, he became more and more angry. Enter state.
Cheng Miao looked at Lin Zhu with appreciation and nodded, "It's time to go out for a walk."
Neither Mr. Chang nor Mrs. Chang were seen today. Cheng Miao greeted the housekeeper and took Lin Zhu out.
"Sister Miaomiao, do you think the butler's eyes are a little weird?" Lin Zhu crossed his arms and rubbed them. Cheng Miao took his hand and put it down, "You are a young master now, don't do such a thing."
Lin Zhu blushed and put down his hand, but always felt that his pocket was empty, so he took out the fan from his waist and held it in his hand.
As he walked among the crowd, his discomfort finally subsided a little. Next to him was a Taoist temple, and the crowds of people coming and going were very popular, which dissipated some of his uneasiness.
Cheng Miao narrowed his eyes and recalled the scene when he went out. The housekeeper looked at him with a half-smile but not a smile. He said that the master stayed outside yesterday and the madam had something to do today. Please help yourself with his meaningful eyes...
What does the butler know?
"The housekeeper may be from Ge Jin, so be careful." Lin Zhu also figured out the connection and nodded obediently. Suddenly he saw something, he stretched his neck slightly, pulled Cheng Miao's sleeve with his hand, and lowered his voice, "Sister Miaomiao, look, that seems to be Li Cheng."
Cheng Miao looked over calmly. It was indeed Li Cheng and his partner. The two were guarding a fortune-telling stall on the roadside of the Taoist temple. They were dressed as Taoist priests. Li Cheng's shrewd eyes were scanning the crowd attentively. Next to him was the thin man. The man's face was covered with gauze, and there was faint blood seeping out.
Li Cheng also saw Cheng Miao looking at him indifferently in the crowd. He nodded slightly, and Cheng Miao led Lin Zhu to the alley next to him.
There were some red papers left after firecrackers were set off on the ground in the alley, and the air was filled with a smell of sulfur. Cheng Miao smelled the choking air, glanced at the fireworks shop next to him, and whispered something to Lin Zhu.
Lin Zhu nodded while listening, and soon he hurried to the fireworks shop with his fan in hand.
When Li Cheng came with his partner, he saw Cheng Miao standing quietly next to a locust tree in the alley, looking over with a calm expression.
"This is my team member, Jiang Qi." The thin man Cheng Miao nodded, grinning and revealing a row of white teeth.
Cheng Miao looked at the gauze on Jiang Qi's face and asked, "How did you do this?"
"Don't mention it," Jiang Qi looked annoyed, "There are monsters in the copy."
Li Cheng looked at Cheng Miao. He had noticed that Cheng Miao was calm when he was in the library, but he didn't expect that one day after coming to the dungeon, their group was more or less injured. She and the high school student were completely fine. , it seems that not only his mental quality is good, but his strength is also strong.
"Cooperate?"
Seeing that Cheng Miao did not object, Li Cheng added tentatively, "You look like an old player at first glance. You should know that although the tasks are different, exchanging information will not hurt anyone."
Seeing that Cheng Miao didn't say anything, Li Cheng, who first proposed the intention of cooperation, took the lead in sharing, "You should have figured out that we are Taoist priests. We found that there are monsters in the copy, which should be plants. A Chinese Ghost Story Have you seen it, the old demon from Montenegro?"
Seeing that Cheng Miao didn't seem to be surprised, Li Cheng couldn't tell for a moment whether Cheng Miao had known the news for a long time, or whether she was too deep in the city to show any reaction from her expression.
"I met my other two teammates before. They are charlatans. Now they are helping Mr. Chang to see a doctor in Changfu. Together with our tasks, I guess your target is also Changfu." Li Cheng is worthy of being an experienced player leading the team. In just a blink of an eye, the target mission was determined.
Cheng Miao didn't test too much. There should be no opposing camps in this mission. "Yes, we are going to join our old friends in the Chang Mansion."
It's a good thing that Cheng Miao is willing to speak. Li Cheng breathed a sigh of relief. Jiang Qi next to him glared, "Then did you find anything wrong with Chang Mansion?"
