I was silent for only three seconds: "Hanged man, you take care of him outside, I'll go in and take a look first."
The hanged man released his arms and quietly stepped back, and I also stepped into the cellar.
I only took two steps forward when I was surrounded by eight fierce ghosts. The leading female ghost said, "You can ask whatever you want! It's best not to play tricks."
I looked straight into his resentful eyes: "Is the housekeeper an accomplice in killing you? The enemy is right in front of you, why don't you kill him?"
"Are you talking too much nonsense?" The female ghost responded coldly, with anger rising from her body.
My heart couldn't help but sink.
I've already guessed the reason why the female ghost didn't kill the housekeeper. When Mr. Yin Yang dragged the butler's body into the cellar, he must have banned it. Otherwise, the butler would have been torn to pieces by the female ghost long ago.
I deliberately asked more questions, just to test whether these eight female ghosts can still be reasonable?
Li Gui, in a sense, is similar to a psychologically distorted person. It's not that they can't understand, nor that they have no brains, it's just that they don't want to reason.
It was just a test to know that things were going to be bad.
I'm afraid that after asking for the answer, I won't be able to get out of this cellar.
All I could do was stall for time.
I pretended to be calm and walked up to the housekeeper: "You should know what I am here to do, right? Tell me everything you know about Master Mu!"
The housekeeper curled up and said, "Take me out and I will tell you, otherwise, I will die without telling you!"
Just as I was about to speak, the female ghost shouted sternly: "No, he must die."
I turned to look at the female ghost, and then said to the housekeeper again: "You have no other choice but to cooperate with me now. You tell me the truth, and I can discuss with them to let you go."
The female ghost said coldly: "If we can't let him go, he will definitely die!"
The housekeeper became angry at this time: "I will die if I tell you, and you will die if I don't tell you. Why should I tell you?"
"If you don't say..." As soon as the female ghost said three words, I said angrily: "If you don't speak, no one will treat you as a mute!"
The female ghost's body surged with rage: "You dare to scold me?"
I stood up and pointed at the other person's nose and said, "You don't want to take revenge. Don't delay others' revenge."
"I now suspect that you are deliberately protecting Master Mu. Otherwise, why did you repeatedly scare the housekeeper and prevent him from speaking?"
At this time, the remaining seven female ghosts also became angry, but their target was the companion who kept talking too much.
The female ghost said: "Okay, I won't say anything, you can ask! If you can't ask, I will tear you alive."
I squatted in front of the housekeeper and said: "Let me tell you again, you have no other choice but to cooperate with me now. Although I may not be able to take you out, I can definitely let them go. They When you go to kill Master Mu, if you're lucky, you can escape. If you're not lucky, you'll end up squatting here like this."
The housekeeper said sternly: "Fart, why should I give you the last chance to save my life in exchange for a chance to gamble my life? If you don't take me out, I won't say anything. I don't believe it, don't worry."
"I'm really not in a hurry!" As I spoke, I dug my fingers into the cracks in the bricks not far from the housekeeper: "Don't think, I don't know why they can't kill you."
"As long as I lift this brick, they can drag you out of the magic circle. They have held back the hatred and anger for so many years. If they vent it all on you, it will be easy to cut you into pieces." . Think about it carefully!"
The housekeeper sneered: "I don't believe it, you dare to let me die."
I didn't even say a word. I lifted up my finger and opened a crack in the brick. The butler's face changed drastically and he still said harshly: "Boy, don't scare me with the trick of killing everything, I'm not afraid of you..." "
The housekeeper is stern and weak, and I am also lacking in confidence. However, when no one is confident, the competition is who can persevere to the end.
The housekeeper watched me put the brick on the ground. I raised my hand and said, "If I slap it down, you must be done with it. I can still give you the chance to let him go in exchange for your own life. Do you still want to gamble?"
If the housekeeper is also a Jianghu person, he will definitely be able to tell that I am no longer confident, otherwise I would not talk nonsense to him at this time. If he persists any longer, I will be the loser.
But when I was about to chop the bricks, the housekeeper couldn't hold himself any longer: "Stop, stop, I say!"
I pressed the brick back smoothly: "Say!"
The housekeeper composed himself and said, "Everything must start with the young master."
"Master, although I wholeheartedly want the young master to obtain fame, the young master is a person who likes to travel around the mountains and rivers, seek immortality and ask questions. He sneaks out whenever he has the opportunity. The longest time he did not come back was half a year. The master had no choice but to We sent people to watch him, but after a year of inactivity, the young master found an opportunity to run away again. This time, he ran away for two years. "
"Just when the whole family thought that the young master was missing, he came back fine. The master was happy and angry at the same time. After scolding him, he asked him to kneel down to the ancestor. Let the young master swear in front of the ancestor. , you must study hard."
"But the young master said: Let me study and take the merit test, but you must agree to marry me a wife."
"Actually, the master and the wife have already made arrangements for the young master to get married. As long as he does not marry the wife of the wife and the young master wants to have a few concubines, the master and the wife are happy to see it happen."
"I just didn't expect that the young master would marry a woman from Yanghuagou. This frightened the master and his wife. Yanghuagou is a notoriously dangerous place!"
"Master and Madam thought at that time that the young master must have been fascinated by the fox fairy."
From their point of view, the suspicions of the Mu family couple are correct. There are countless charming legends about fox fairies. Many of them involve young scholars who accidentally met a beautiful woman and were left to sleep together. It was not until a few years later that they discovered that the person sleeping with him was actually a fox.
Master Mu disappeared mysteriously for two years. When he came back, he insisted on marrying a woman from Yanghuagou. Everyone would be suspicious of him.
The housekeeper continued: "The master ordered the young master to be tied up at that time, and asked someone to come over to exorcise him. At first, the master invited several immortal families to come forward, and those immortal families said that nothing happened to the young master."
"The Master thought that the Immortal Family did not want to offend the Fox Fairy, so he asked the Taoist priests again. The Taoist priests also said the same thing. The Young Master did not hit the evil spirits at all."
"But the master was very worried and refused to believe what those people said. He kept the young master locked up and refused to let him have contact with others. During that time, the only person the young master could come into contact with was me."
