Chapter 45
Under the moonlight, a graceful female figure danced gracefully in the courtyard of Wuliuzhuang. At first, the figure of the woman danced in accordance with the movements of the puppet pulled by the white-haired old man's ten fingers. Later, the figure began to slowly change.
Taking the initiative, he began to hold the white-haired old man's hand and dance until the white-haired old man stopped completely. The originally petite puppet suddenly turned into the size of a normal person and appeared in the courtyard.
She was dressed in pure white clothing, exactly like the puppet, with well-proportioned skirts and belts, which seemed to indicate that this woman must have been a well-educated and courteous person during her lifetime. And against the backdrop of the clothes, the woman's beautiful face became even more beautiful.
She looks extremely youthful and cannot tolerate the slightest blasphemy. The willow eyebrows are curved and slender, decorating the bright eyes like bright moonlight and autumn water under the eyebrows. The nose is warm and straight, standing on the face, and connected with the thin red lips below, which makes people look at it.
He couldn't help but feel the urge to protect her throughout his life.
"Yingxue! My good daughter, let me see if you have lost weight." As soon as the woman next to her saw this woman appearing, she hurriedly stepped forward to greet her. It seemed that the six dead souls in the yard were actually a family.
, and the woman turned into a puppet brought back by the white-haired old man turned out to be a member of this family.
"Dad, Mom, I'm back, are you okay?" After greeting her parents, the woman named Yingxue said to the young man next to her: "Brother, you didn't quarrel with your sister-in-law, did you?"
"Little sister, what are you talking about? Why did I quarrel with Xin'er? It's just that Xiaoguo has been too naughty recently, which made her a little upset!" The young man said, pulling the child beside him and saying: "Xiaoguo, come here!
This is your aunt, please say hello to your aunt."
"Auntie, please kowtow to you!" The child said in a sweet voice, and then he bent his knees and knelt down to worship.
"Hey! Okay, we are all members of our family. What are you saying bye? Get up!" Yingxue hurriedly stepped forward to hold Xiao Guo, but as soon as she stretched out her hand to hold Xiao Guo, a child next to her who was not much older than Xiao Guo immediately came up and hugged her.
Her legs said: "Sister, sister, where have you been? Did you bring me anything interesting when you came back this time?"
"Qinghao, be good. My sister just went out for a while and didn't bring anything back." Yingxue said this. Seeing that Qinghao still had no intention of letting go, she had to coax softly: "Be good! Sister will teach you how to write later.
Can you please let go first? It will hurt my sister very much if you hold her like this!"
"Oh! Qinghao didn't mean it. My sister didn't bring me anything." Qinghao pouted and lowered his head to complain.
"My sister is still in trouble, right? Then let me ask you, did you bully Guo'er when I asked you to take care of him when I left?" When Yingxue asked this question, Qinghao lowered his head even further,
But he still muttered: "Well... no!" However, just after he finished speaking, he asked a little uncertainly, "Sister, does it count if you snatched Guoer's pastries?"
"You should know that this is a robbery! Are you looking for a fight?" Yingxue said, raising her hand to hit Qinghao, but Qinghao quickly ran behind Yingxue, shouting: "Dad! Mommy" as he ran.
! Look, my sister hit me again!" By the time he finished speaking, he was already hiding behind his parents.
"Yingxue, okay, Qinghao is still young. He will be sensible when he gets older, so please let him go!" Yingxue's mother came out in time and protected Qinghao behind her, so Yingxue gave up.
Another woman walked towards him and said, "Sister-in-law, Qinghao is still young, so sometimes he can be a little naughty. Don't blame him!"
"Sister-in-law, what you said is unreasonable. Fortunately, Qinghao is still young and can play with Guo'er. If it were me, I might not be able to catch up with Guo'er. Besides, even if he bullies Guo'er
Damn it, when the troublemaker in my belly comes out again, the two of them will bully Qinghao, and they will bully him back." After Xiner finished speaking, she couldn't hold back herself, she took the lead in laughing, and she followed with Yingxue.
Laughed.
"Xue'er!" At this time, the middle-aged man who had been silent called out. Yingxue looked back and looked back, as if ready to listen to the teachings, and stood respectfully beside her brother. It looked like this
The middle-aged man should be Yingxue's father.
"Have you been nice to your parents-in-law for the past three months since you've been gone? If not, just come back. We, the daughter of the Jiang family, won't tolerate such cowardice!" Yingxue's father kept his eyes open as he spoke.
He never left Yingxue for even a moment, and he seemed to love Yingxue extremely much.
"Dad! My daughter is okay." Yingxue said this, glanced at the white-haired old man who was still standing aside, and then turned back and continued: "My husband and his family are all very kind. You see, my daughter has been here for so long, and she has not been there yet."
She's so thin!" After Yingxue finished speaking, she raised her arms and let her family look at her carefully. When everyone had seen enough, she turned to speak.
"Father! Mother! Big brother! Sister-in-law! Guo'er! Little brother! I'm a little tired just after I came back. If we have something to say, we can talk about it tomorrow, okay? You go to bed first!"
As soon as Yingxue said this, six figures in the courtyard greeted her and left, heading towards their familiar residences. The entire courtyard slowly became quiet as the family left.
Xiao Zhuo looked at Yingxue and the white-haired old man who were still standing in the yard on the roof. He reached out and stroked the ancient sword behind him, and found that the ancient sword no longer moved at this time, but Wang Junke and Xu Shiji were beside him.
, but at this time, he was already sitting there blankly, not knowing where his soul had flown to!
She is so beautiful! Xiao Zhuo also has to admit that Yingxue is so beautiful that when people take one look at it, there is no room for anything else in their eyes, and their mind follows her involuntarily. Xiao Zhuo believes that if Yingxue lets Wang
Jun Ke and Xu Shiji died without any hesitation, and it had nothing to do with magic, it was entirely because of Yingxue's appearance! However, it was Yingxue's appearance that made Xiao Zhuo start from the moment he saw it.
She was constantly on guard in her heart, so that he was never confused.
Because Yingxue’s appearance is exactly the same as that of her aunt Xiao Meiniang!
From this, Xiao Zhuo also remembered an incident before he went to the Yan family. It was in the first year of Daye, not long after the emperor had just ascended the throne. According to the old practice, the Ministry of Rites needed to receive a portrait of the queen, but the emperor invited all the painters in the capital.
, but no one could paint the beauty of the queen. Later, it was Yuwen CD who recommended Xiao Zhuo to the emperor, and the emperor called Xiao Zhuo to the palace to paint. At that time, Xiao Zhuo had some reputation in the capital, and he also considered himself to have advanced painting skills.
An extraordinary person even laughed at many painters for seeking fame, but when he painted by himself, although he could clearly see how beautiful his aunt was, once he started painting, he never knew where to start, as if no matter where he started,
If you start painting anywhere, it will stain that beauty. In the end, Xiao Zhuo had to admit that his painting skills were not good, and before leaving the capital, he went to the Yan family to continue to relieve his depressed mood.
Xiao Zhuo now recalled what happened that year and looked at Yingxue's appearance in the courtyard. Various doubts kept emerging in his heart. The first was why Yingxue's face was exactly the same as his aunt? If it were him in the past, he would have seen this most often
He felt a little surprised and didn't think much about it, but now he couldn't believe that this was really just a coincidence. Secondly, he thought that Yingxue was also a ghost, because when Yingxue's family just showed up,
, there was movement in the ancient sword, so after Yingxue arrived, Xiao Zhuo naturally included Yingxue in the group of ghosts. But when Yingxue’s family hid again, Xiao Zhuo found that there was no movement in the ancient sword again.
, doesn’t that mean that Yingxue is not a ghost or evil spirit? Furthermore, if Yingxue really has any relationship with his aunt, or Yingxue is the real owner of this face, then he is far away in Luoyang
What's going on with the aunt? They have the same appearance and are involved in ghosts. Xiao Zhuo can't convince himself to admit that this is a coincidence, and he can't ruthlessly eradicate this family under heavy doubts!
But at this moment, Yingxue, who was watching her family leave in the courtyard, glanced in the direction of Xiao Zhuo and the others, and then waved to the white-haired old man. The white-haired old man then made some movement, and Yingxue's
The figure also transformed into the puppet again. This time, Xiao Zhuo finally confirmed that Yingxue was indeed not a ghost and evil spirit, because the location where he, Xu Shiji and Wang Junke were now was the one with the heaviest Yin Qi among the eight places in Wuliuzhuang.
In the mountains, Yingxue's family are ghosts and Yin spirits. Due to the cover of Yin Qi, they are naturally not aware of them in the mountains. However, Yingxue discovered their behavior, which means that Yingxue is definitely not Yin spirits.
Ghostly.
However, when Xiao Zhuo just wanted to go down to the white-haired old man to ask what happened, Xu Shiji and Wang Junke beside him saw Yingxue's figure disappearing and acted even more eagerly than him. They were about to jump down and grab the white-haired old man. Xiao
Zhuo had no choice but to stretch out his hand to stop the two of them, and then placed a spot between their eyebrows to seal their spiritual eyes, which would prevent the two of them from being fascinated by any beautiful ghost in the future. And in this short period of time, the white-haired
The old man also took one step out of the courtyard.
"Brother Xu Dao, Mr. Wangzhuang, I believe you have a sense of proportion in what happens tonight, so I won't go into details. All the weird things tonight are caused by these five willow trees. Please start moving the willow trees immediately."
, I still have some things that need to be clarified, so I’ll take my leave now!”
After Xiao Zhuo finished speaking, he was about to leave, but after thinking about it, he still felt a little worried. If Xu Shiji and Wang Junke alarmed Yingxue's family after he left, it would be difficult for them to escape. Xiao Zhuo remembered Yingxue
When the family members first appeared, their faces were still a little ferocious. Fortunately, the white-haired old man appeared in time with Yingxue, which resolved the resentment of Yingxue's family and made Xiao Zhuo stop his behavior of removing the demon guardian.
If Yingxue's family is awakened again at this time, the only thing waiting for them may be Xiao Zhuo's sword!
Thinking of this, Xiao Zhuo had to give Xu Shiji and Wang Junke instructions on how to leave Wuliuzhuang, and then went to find the white-haired old man. Fortunately, Xu Shiji and Wang Junke were also awakened by his words, and they realized that,
The woman they had seen before, who made them feel relaxed and happy, turned out to be not a normal person. The two of them immediately gathered their minds and immediately set off to follow Xiao Zhuo and leave Wuliuzhuang.
