The morning sun is like fire, gradually turning the dim sky into a pleasing blue. Birds draw beautiful arcs in this blue from time to time. Early in the morning, there are few people coming to the inn, and the surrounding environment is quite comfortable and quiet, so
The birds were chirping non-stop.
When Chu Huayu woke up, Bai Wuchen was already waiting in the living room. The breakfast in this inn looked very good. In addition to some nutritious grains, there were also various kinds of pasta.
"Morning, Bai Mo!"
"Morning! Xiaoyu'er."
"When did you wake up? You haven't been waiting here for a long time, have you?"
Bai Wuchen shook his head: "Not long ago, I communicated with Zifang this morning and learned that Head Su has something to do and the meeting will be postponed for one day."
"Okay, then today we can go back to the Xuanming Spiritual Realm and take a closer look at the corpses."
"good!"
The four corpses died from the hanging silk puppet technique. Head Su sent people to take the corpses of the deceased back to the Xuanming Spiritual Realm for inspection. At first, the relatives of the deceased did not agree, but Head Su did not force them.
He sent people to persuade and comfort him several times, and promised to protect the body from decay. After the murder caused by the suspense puppet technique was found out, the body of the deceased would be returned intact. The family members of the deceased also wanted to pay tribute to their deceased relatives.
Seeking justice and pinning their hopes on the Xuan Ming Spiritual Realm, they agreed. Even though there was no body, they still held a funeral for the deceased. They just replaced the deceased's body with clothes and crowns, set up a burial tomb, and added the name of the deceased.
All are engraved on the spirit tablet.
The boy cleaning the table next to him was shocked after listening to the conversation between the two. Who are these two immortals? Why are they talking about some corpse so early in the morning?
Four people died... The more the boy thought about it, the more frightened he became.
"Hiss!" The boy took a breath, and his men started working faster. He just wanted to clear the table and leave immediately, but he didn't want to be stopped by Chu Huayu at this moment.
"Little brother, your name is Afu, right?"
"Ah? Yes..."
"Afu, come here, we want to..."
"I don't know! I don't know! Wuwuwu..." This Ah Fu was still young after all, and he was cowardly by nature. He ran away before Chu Huayu could finish his words.
Chu Huayu looked helpless, put his face with his hands and put his elbows on the table: "Ah? Why is this like this! This is too disrespectful to me! Am I ugly?"
Bai Wuchen smiled and shook his head.
Chu Huayu had no choice but to put a spoonful of sweet porridge into his mouth. Bai Wuchen looked at Chu Huayu seriously and said seriously, "Little fish, you are so beautiful!"
"Ahem..." Chu Huayu was startled by what Bai Wuchen said and choked. Bai Wuchen immediately patted Chu Huayu's back with concern.
What happened to Bai Wuchen? In the past, let alone praising her, he would not even want to talk to her. Oh my god! Is this still the Bai Wuchen that Chu Huayu knew?
"Water..." Chu Huayu said with difficulty.
The waiter who greeted me at the door last night was very quick and quickly brought me a bowl of water.
Chu Huayu picked up the bowl and drank several gulps before he finally recovered, patted his chest and said, "I finally feel comfortable, thank you, thank you!"
The waiter in the shop continued: "My lord, just now I saw that the child Afu has offended you a lot, so I will first apologize to you for him. This child Afu is an orphan, very pitiful, and he is only a ten-year-old boy."
A child of three or four years old still invites two guests. The adults don't remember the faults of the villain!"
Chu Huayu quickly waved his hand and said, "No, no."
"Thank you sir!"
"Oh, by the way, we want to ask you something, is that okay?" After Chu Huayu said that, Bai Wuchen placed a gold leaf on the table.
The boy's eyes were shining. He stepped forward, picked up the gold leaf, looked at it, stuffed it into his arms like a treasure, and said with a smile: "My name is Axiang. If you want to ask anything, just ask me! I will tell you what I know."
I’ll tell you all!”
Chu Huayu smiled: "Axiang, it's refreshing!"
Bai Wuchen asked: "Axiang, do you know if there is a woman named Yaofang in Liquan Town?"
"Yao Fang, I know, you are asking the right person. Our inn used to be a restaurant. The number one pipa player in Jiangnan used to play pipa here, so I heard about Yao Fang from other people, and I feel that
Yaofang is also a poor person!"
Chu Huayu: "How do you say this?"
"Yao Fang actually died twenty years ago. I heard that she was originally a brothel prostitute in the south of the Yangtze River and a first-class pipa player. Her appearance was also stunning. Later, she was spotted by a rich man.
, redeemed her body. At first, the man cared very much about Yao Fang and even bought her a house. But later, Yao Fang became pregnant, and there was no news from that man again..."
"I hate heartless people the most!" Chu Huayu said angrily.
"Isn't it?" The boy also felt angry.
"What happened next?"
"Later, Yaofang gave birth to a son, so she sold her house and left Jiangnan to go to Lingzhou to find the betrayer, but it turned out that the man already had a family, so he turned Yaofang away. Then Yaofang came.
In Liquan Town, orphans and widowed mothers will inevitably be bullied by evil people, but we have to live our lives as usual, don’t you think so?"
Chu Huayu had strong empathy and felt the same, nodding his head repeatedly.
"Alas." Axiang sighed and continued: "Beauties are so miserable! Later, I heard some people say that it was Yaofang who first seduced Mr. Gu, and some said that Mr. Gu coveted Yaofang's beauty and wanted to kill her.
She took her as a concubine, but Mrs. Gu was an extremely jealous and vicious woman. She called a bunch of servants and beat Yao Fang to death. Alas! You can't put someone to death no matter what, alas."
"So it turns out that she is a miserable person." Chu Huayu asked: "What about her child?"
"I don't know about this anymore. I heard someone say that the child was also beaten to death..."
"Alas..." Chu Huayu shook his head regretfully and said thoughtfully: "No wonder Mrs. Gu's inner demon is her..."
Bai Wuchen: "He who sows the cause will eat the fruit."
"Then, sir, do you have anything else you want to ask?"
Chu Huayu waved his hand and said: "No, thank you!"
"Then I'll go get busy! You two can eat and drink slowly, just call me if you need anything!"
"OK!"
Ah Xiang put the tablecloth over his shoulders, touched the gold leaves in his arms, and walked away with a smile.
In this way, it makes sense that Mrs. Gu went crazy yesterday. If Mrs. Gu really had a clear conscience, how could she be so afraid of Yaofang after being cursed? She must have done something wrong to Yaofang.
"Shopkeeper Tang, it's the two of them, I heard... I heard what they were talking about about the corpse." Ah Fu pointed at Chu Huayu and Bai Wuchen and said to the people next to him.
Bai Wuchen and Chu Huayu looked in the direction of the voice. It turned out to be Ah Fu, but Ah Fu also came over with a woman with a fan. The woman was in late spring and had a kind face. She was one of the five blessings.
The owner of the inn is named Tang Li. Shopkeeper Tang looked at Bai Wuchen and Chu Huayu carefully and knew that they were unusual. They must be immortal cultivators. Immortal cultivators will inevitably deal with monsters and monsters. Ah Fu must have misunderstood
What.
Just when Chu Huayu and Bai Wuchen were confused, the boss spoke first.
"Two Immortals, this Ah Fu is still young, so he must have misunderstood something. Please don't take offense, Immortal!"
"Immortal chief?" It turned out to be two immortal chiefs. When Ah Fu heard shopkeeper Tang address Bai Wuchen and Chu Huayu in this way, his doubts dissipated.
Bai Wuchen and Chu Huayu suddenly realized that the conversation between them must have frightened the child Ah Fu.
Bai Wuchen said: "No problem."
Axiang also came over to smooth things over at this time: "Shopkeeper Tang, these two guests just want to inquire about Miss Yaofang."
"Yao Fang?" Shopkeeper Tang's face changed drastically: "Sister Yaofang passed away twenty years ago. Why do the two immortals ask about her now?"
Chu Huayu said: "It's because the matter in the Gu family compound last night was related to the hanging silk puppet technique. The matter is urgent, so I came to inquire."
"Gu family?" Shopkeeper Tang said disdainfully: "Ha! They are today too? I hope that this silk puppet technique was done by sister Yaofang. In this way... she can be regarded as avenging herself, and she can rest in peace under the underworld...
…”
After hearing what Shopkeeper Tang said, it seemed that the four people who died from the hanging silk puppet technique were related to Yao Fang. If so, it is not difficult to understand why Mrs. Gu was so sure that she was the next person to die last night.
Bai Wuchen: "Why do you say this?"
"That old lady Sun always said some slanderous words about Sister Yaofang, making her unable to behave as a human being. Sister Yaofang sold her house, but failed to find the unfaithful person. When she came, all the money she had left was snatched away by Wang Mazi.
Leading people to bully their orphans and widowed mothers; those people from the Gu family are the most hateful!"
Gossip can sometimes ruin a person's life;
Orphans and widowed mothers are most afraid of encountering bullies;
Since ancient times, beauties have had a bad life, and they are speechless to the east wind...
This Yaofang has a really rough fate...
Chu Huayu asked: "Are shopkeeper Tang and this girl Yaofang an old acquaintance?"
"That's right, actually... Yaofang and I were both prostitutes who made a living by selling laughter. Originally, the two sisters of us were living in Jiangnan, playing the pipa against each other every day, thinking of making money on our own to redeem ourselves. But who would have thought that sister Yaofang would
It was so painful to be harmed by that unfaithful person."
Chu Huayu asked: "Does Shopkeeper Tang know who the unfaithful person is?"
"I don't know the details. Sister Yaofang didn't tell me about this. I only know that the person should be a powerful person in Lingzhou. Sister Yaofang sold the house in Jiangnan and first redeemed it for me.
Then I went to look for the unfaithful person..."
Chu Huayu and Bai Wuchen already knew what happened later. Yaofang's money was robbed by Wang Mazi, and she could no longer return to Jiangnan and could only stay in Lingzhou.
Shopkeeper Tang continued: "Later I saved enough money to open a restaurant in Liquan Town. I thought that Sister Yaofang had found the man and could finally live a good life. But when we met again, she brought two
The child was making a living as a street performer and was in dire straits, so I quickly brought Sister Yaofang to my restaurant, only to realize that that person turned out to be a heartless person. We had already let go of the past, but there were always some people who refused to let go, especially the Gu family.
That group of beasts slandered Sister Yaofang and beat her to death in the end."
It seems that next time I will have a good chat with Mrs. Gu.
The Gu family used their power to do evil, and there were many people like Yao Fang who died unjustly, but the people of Liquan Town had no choice but to speak out their sufferings, and dared not express their anger.
Chu Huayu was confused: "Shopkeeper Tang, why did you say there were two children just now?"
"One is older and is sister Yaofang's son, named Yu'er, and the other is a younger girl named Awen. She is an orphan and has nowhere to go. Seeing that sister Yaofang is kind-hearted, she keeps following her. Yaofang sees her
He was so pitiful and innocent, so he took the child with him."
Bai Wuchen asked: "Where are those two children now?"
"After Sister Yaofang passed away, I had no intention of opening a restaurant again, so I converted the restaurant into an inn. Yuer went to look for his biological father, and there was no news from him again. After a few years, Awen also left quietly, and the child
Zaixin said he would come back to repay me in the future, but more than ten years have passed and I don’t know how they are doing now..."
Having almost understood everything, Bai Wuchen and Chu Huayu thanked Shopkeeper Tang and left to return to the Xuanming Spiritual Realm.
