"It's just... that man is dead."
"Dead?" Lin Yi was surprised and asked, "When did it happen?"
"Just a few days ago."
Could this song really be related to Guan Cai?
To be precise, it is related to Guan Cai’s death.
It seems that the time and the singing are right.
At this time Liu Yuanwai spoke.
"Warlock Lin, I guess it was that person who had plans for my daughter. After she died, she turned into a ghost and came to haunt her. You must make the decision for us!"
Liu Yuanwai seemed to be in a hurry to drive away ghosts.
Is there a hidden secret behind this?
Lin Yi asked: "In addition to Mr. Liu, Mrs. Liu, could you please tell me how the long-term worker named Guan Cai died?"
"This... ." Liu Yuanwai pondered for a moment and said, "Warlock Lin, since we trust you and ask you to come over to handle my daughter's affairs, we shouldn't treat you as an outsider. Let me tell you the truth. This is just because I met my little girl. , and then he became lovesick, and then he became ill and died. I just sent someone to bury him on the back mountain a few days ago."
The sixth sense of a man, let him die. Lin Yi felt that Liu Yuanwai was not telling the truth.
Looks like I need to take a trip to the back mountain.
It was getting late now, so Lin Yi discussed with Liu Yuanwai to go to the Tomb of Cai in Houshanguan tomorrow, maybe they would find something.
Stayed at Liu Yuan’s wife’s house that night.
As soon as the gong rang at the third watch, Lin Yi heard faint singing coming from somewhere in the house.
The singing voice is not clear, but the melody is cold and sad.
Lin Yi closed his eyes and listened carefully.
"One look at you... heartbreaking... sigh... afterlife..."
That didn't sound real.
After a while, the singing stopped.
It seems that the Liu family did not lie.
It is impossible to understand the true cause of the midnight singing until we visit Guancai’s grave tomorrow.
If Guan Cai is really sneaky, then the peach wood sword he just got should be useful.
Lin Yi took it with him when he came out.
It is difficult to find a protective treasure, which must be hidden close to the body.
Being so disturbed, Lin Yi couldn't sleep.
I sat up from the bed, lit the kerosene lamp, poured a glass of water to drink, and prepared to go back to bed to rest.
As soon as the kerosene lamp was blown out, Lin Yi saw a shadow on the paper window at the door!
Whoosh!
Lin Yi took out the peach wood sword.
This speed...
Lin Yi has never been so fast.
"Who's there!"
Lin Yi asked sternly, his left hand already forming the Tiangang Beidou Seal to wish for subduing demons and exterminating demons as recorded in the catalog. Once the opponent If you dare to plot evil, you will be punished.No reply!
"Master Lin, don't worry. I am the cook in this house, my name is Zhou Bin. I have something to tell you privately."
Lin Yi felt relieved when he heard that it was a human being. Come on, let go, sheath your sword, stand up and open the door.
But this meeting frightened Lin Yi.
Isn’t the person in front of him exactly the person Lin Yi saw in Liu Xuer’s experience with his heavenly eyes?
Is this a ghost or possession?
Why is he called Zhou Bin when he is clearly Guan Cai?
Lin Yi glanced at the ground. The moonlight was bright at the moment, and the shadow of the man at the door stretched long on the stone road in front of the hall.
"Are you Guan Cai or Zhou Bin?"
The person at the door was stunned, and then whispered back: "Master Lin, don't be loud, my name is Zhou Bin. It’s not Guan Cai. Like me, Guan Cai is a long-term worker in the dining hall of the house.”
As expected, something is fishy.
"I have something to tell you."
"Come in and talk."
Lin Yi introduced Zhou Bin into the room, closed the door, and clicked Put on the kerosene lamp.
The man in front of him was short in stature and had dark skin. He was exactly the "Guan Cai" in Liu Xuer's memory.
Zhou Bin said: "Master Lin, did you hear the singing just now?"
Lin Yi nodded.
"Ever since...since Guan Cai's death, the singing began to appear in the house. I was so frightened when I heard it that I couldn't sleep all night long."
As the saying goes Well said, don't do bad things and don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door.
The Zhou Bin in front of him must have a guilty conscience.
After a pause, Zhou Bin continued: "Actually... I am also responsible for Guan Cai's death."
Lin Yi knew from the first moment he saw Zhou Bin He must have been involved in this matter, and he had already been mentally prepared for it. He was not surprised at all when he heard his opening remarks.
"That day... Madam asked someone to call Guan Cai to see the young lady, but she happened to be caught by the master. After the master heard that the young lady wanted to see Guan Cai, he thought for a moment and asked me to pretend to be her. I look like this , and Guan Cai are very different, I don’t know what the master thought. But the fate was difficult, so I went to see the lady on Guan Cai’s behalf. Later... alas... Guan Cai suddenly fell ill and passed away a few days ago. If I hadn't taken my place, but he had gone to see the lady, maybe this wouldn't have happened..."
As Lin Yi listened, his heart gradually became brighter.
Some things that were a little confusing at first have been figured out.
"Master Lin, I told you this secret. Don't tell anyone else. I won't let it out, but I'm afraid! I always feel that the singing in the middle of the night is not only for the young lady." , and also for me, I am afraid that one day, something like the lady will suddenly happen..."
People really can't hide things in their hearts.
Look at Zhou Bin, he has already started to scare himself.
Judging from the experience of seeing Liu Xuer with the Sky Eye,Zhou Bin just acted as a pawn with no ability to resist in this matter.
Every injustice has its owner, and every debt has its owner.
Even if Guan Cai really wanted to come back to seek revenge, he would not be able to find him.
First of all, it should be Liu Yuanwai.
So you see, people must not do anything wrong, otherwise they will be frightened whenever there is a slight disturbance.
Zhou Bin’s words were very important and made Lin Yi think about many things.
After comforting Zhou Bin, he gave him a piece of Xie character seal and told him to put it under his pillow and sleep peacefully. He also told him that tomorrow he would go to Guancai’s tomb with Liu Yuanwai. Let’s see what happens.
Zhou Bin thanked him, carefully put the talisman close to his body, and went back quietly.
......
Early the next morning, Liu Yuanwai prepared his sedan chair, took two or three servants with him, and went to the back mountain with Lin Yi.
Arrived at Guancai’s grave.
There is a simple tombstone erected on the grave.
Suddenly someone asked in surprise: "What's the sound?"
Following that someone responded: "I heard it too."
"Dong dong... .Dong dong..."
Like the sound of a beating heart, it passes through the eardrums and hits the bottom of the heart.
Lin Yi also heard it. Following the sound, he found that the heartbeat was coming from the tomb.
Liu Yuanwai naturally heard it and asked Lin Yi: "Warlock Lin, what do you mean..."
"Open the coffin."
When he heard that the coffin was about to be opened, Mr. Liu looked embarrassed.
After all, according to Zhou Bin, there is a story in it.
"Liu Yuanwai, please think carefully, this may be related to your daughter's life."
"Hey." Liu Yuanwai lowered his head and waved his hand as if he had made a sudden decision. , "Open!"
......
This time I came here with a shovel in advance.
When several servants saw Liu Yuanwai's signal, they started working together.
As the soil was dug up, the sound of the heartbeat became louder and louder.
Liu Yuanwai’s face was ashen.
After a while, the coffin was dug out.
As soon as the coffin board was opened, everyone went up to take a look. They were all shocked when they saw the scene inside the coffin!
