There was urgency in the elegance, and the tone was quite helpless. This voice was too familiar to them.
Lou Wenliang, the leader of Lou!
"Master, I...I really didn't kill anyone. I didn't kill them. I don't know anything."
They could hear that Lou Yunxian was on the verge of mental collapse, and even his speech became stumbling. He was completely different from the bright-eyed star on the news.
Lou Wenliang sighed:
"Master knows who you are, but it's too late. Once these eight apprentices and your crazy aunt died, all the dirty water was poured on you."
"Now, things are no longer under the control of our master and disciple."
"Yunxian, don't worry, Master will not let them take you away even if he risks his life."
As soon as these words came out, Lou Yunxian looked even more frightened and looked at him with disbelief:
"Master... do you really think I killed these people?"
Lou Wenliang knew that there was no need to conceal the conversation between their master and apprentice, so he decided to open the skylight and speak openly:
"Didn't you disappear for two or three hours to clean up the aftermath?"
"How can it be!"
Lou Yunxian was so angry that his voice trembled, and he wanted to explain but was unable to do so.
Lou Wenliang continued to ask:
"Yunxian, don't think that Master's words are unpleasant. Ever since your aunt harassed us, you have been disappearing every midnight. I don't even know where you have gone."
"Now that your aunt is dead and Caiping and the others are also dead, what do you want Master to think?"
"Just now, I heard your prayer to God. How dare you say that it has nothing to do with you!"
These words made the master and disciple silent.
Lou Yunxian seemed to be suffering from something he couldn't express, and his breathing was difficult to calm down:
"Master, I'm not going to kill anyone, I'm just going to worship God."
"Worship God?"
Lou Wenliang's tone returned to curiosity, and he finally lost the disappointment of facing the murderer.
"right!"
Lou Yunxian walked into the back makeup cabinet and moved the cabinet forward. Inside was a hidden compartment half a person's height.
Her hands were hanging in the air, and she seemed to be struggling and hesitating in her heart. Suddenly, she opened the hidden painting and took out the pagoda shrine inside.
"This thing is the Goddess of Joy!"
As soon as this object came out, Lou Wenliang stood up from the ground in shock.
Yue Guanchao looked at the so-called Goddess of Joy by the candlelight.
This Goddess of Joy is half as high as an arm, and is covered with a pagoda shrine the size of a food box.
Look carefully, the style of the pagoda shrine is close to that of an octagonal pavilion, with eight hollow sides, carved windows and pillars, and pointed eaves. It is made of golden nan, and the fine gold patterns are polished like gold and stone. The large eastern beads on the top shine out in the candlelight. Shining golden light.
The highlight is the Goddess of Joy in the pagoda shrine!
She wears an embroidered robe, an exquisite phoenix hairpin, and a colorful outer garment.
The jade-white face is covered with rouge, the lips are as crimson as a fruit, and two black jade eyes are embedded in them.
The face that should have been smiling like flowers looked like a frown, and the curve of the corner of the mouth was exactly like crying but not smiling, staring at the living person with a strange and twisted smile.
hiss!
Yue Guanchao had to take a breath.
Isn’t this the look on the murder case I saw this morning?
Could it be that those people were really killed by this thing?
Questions and questions filled Yue Guanchao's mind, and the eerie feeling lingered for a long time.
"Yunxian, how can you worship such evil things?"
Lou Wenliang was angry for the first time. Even when faced with Zheng Ke's questioning, he was only excited. It can be seen that he was really pissed off by his disciple:
"No matter how high-ranking our opera troupe is, the ancestors we worship are all human emperors like Li Silang. He is the ancestor of our troupe."
"Tell me what you did to worship such a wild priest and a strange god. Now that you have caused a big disaster, how will you end it?"
Lou Wenliang was really scared. He still wanted to protect his disciple. Now that strange forces and chaos were involved, how could he save his disciple who had gotten into trouble.
"No, no, this Goddess of Joy will not harm anyone without reason. What on earth did you wish for to cause such casualties?"
Lou Yunxian was also a little hesitant about the master's words, but after saying this, there was no turning back.
"I made a vow yesterday. If you can help me take my aunt's life, I can bear any price."
Lou Yunxian's light words made Lou Wenliang unable to stand and almost fell to the ground.
"You...you kid, you are so stupid."
"How can you make such a big wish? As the saying goes, saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. If you want to take away a villain's life, you will need seven or eight lives to fill it. How can Caiping and the others not get into trouble?"
This was so mysterious that Yue Guanchao didn't quite believe it, but with the strange laughing corpse in front of him, he couldn't figure out the situation.
When he was confused, he looked to his side, and with the flickering candlelight, he could see the shoe prints on his side at a glance.
Because the partition board is covered with dust, the shoe prints are clearly visible as if they were rubbed on the board.
The three of them haven't moved since they settled down, so this also means:
The footprints on the partition had been there at least before they arrived.
