Peerless Sword Technique System - C31
What Ye Zhifa needed to do was to send Miss Yao back to the new house, where she had encountered the first ghost, and try to recover her consciousness there.
When Old Master Yao bought this mansion at all costs to serve as Miss Yao’s new house, he must have hoped for his daughter to be happy in the future. He never thought that this day of marriage would actually become Miss Yao’s worst nightmare.
While he was lamenting, Chu Qianwei, who was beside him, was having a different thought.
“Wow, when Miss Yao gets married, it must be very lively.”
“What, you’re so young yet you miss your family?”
“Ye Zhifa! “You’re younger than me, how can you call me a girl?”
Ye Zhifa laughed, and did not continue speaking with Chu Qianwei, and walked straight up to the door and opened it.
Behind the door was a courtyard that had been abandoned for a long time. A thin layer of dust had already accumulated on the unattended flagstones.
Ye Zhifa stepped inside and discovered that the wedding arrangements were still there. The two big red lanterns hanging from the ceiling looked unspeakably sarcastic.
Out of the two people who were married at the time, one of them had already returned to the Kingdom of Heaven, and didn’t even leave behind a complete corpse. The other one was securely tied up and sent in by a palanquin.
However, after the servants carrying the palanquin entered the courtyard, no matter what, they didn’t dare to take even half a step further. They were only willing to stop here and not move.
When Ye Zhifa asked them about it, they were also submissive and did not dare to answer.
“Lord Ye, please don’t make things difficult for them.” Ever since this matter had happened, this place had become a haunted house. Everyone said that the soul of the young master of the Zhang family was still wandering around here, waiting to find someone to take his life! ”
At this time, the woman who followed them explained the difficulties of the servants. After she finished speaking, she even vividly described the details of how this place was haunted.
Ye Zhifa himself was also afraid of ghosts, so he naturally understood the fear in their hearts, and said: “Since that’s the case, you guys can just wait here, the two of us can go in. Junior Sister, carry Miss Yao in … Junior Sister? Junior Sister? Chu Qianwei! ”
It was only when Ye Zhifa shouted out Chu Qianwei’s name that the little girl came back to her senses. With tears in her eyes, she said to Ye Zhifa: “Senior Brother, there’s a ghost inside, why don’t we go in?”
Facing the threat of ghosts, Chu Qianwei actually shouted out the word Senior Brother. Unfortunately, even so, she could not shake Ye Zhifa’s mind.
“Junior Chu, you have to think carefully. If you stop here, you won’t be able to take Sister Huang Xi as your master, and you won’t be able to stay in the Sword Palace.”
Chu Qianwei was at a loss for a long time before she finally steeled her heart and carried the unconscious Miss Yao out from the palanquin.
Ye Zhifa also quickly followed, and saw that the inside of the house was just like the outside, covered with dust. It seemed that after the investigation had no results, Ran Maoxue and Duan Deyi did not send anyone here anymore.
The two walked around the house for a while before they reached the door of the new room where the murder occurred.
By this time, the courage that Chu Qianwei had mustered with great difficulty was used up, and she looked pitifully at Ye Zhifa.
Ye Zhifa could only shake his head and take a deep breath before he pushed the door and walked in.
“Why is the ground here black?”
“It’s not black. It’s the blood of that young master Zhang that was left on the ground. After it dried up, it became this color.”
Hearing Ye Zhifa’s answer, Chu Qianwei was immediately shocked to the point of screaming, and at the same time, she woke up Miss Yao who was in her arms.
When Miss Yao woke up, she found that she was tightly tied up. Just as she was about to struggle to stand up, her eyes caught a glimpse of the wedding chamber where the tragic case had occurred.
With this glance, it was as if the initial excitement had returned to the mind of Miss Yao, causing her to be unable to refrain from screaming.
Seeing Miss Yao’s extremely terrified look, Ye Zhifa said: “Junior Chu, if you really do not dare to enter, why not try to go outside the door and see if you can recover Miss Yao’s consciousness. I think the stimulus she’s getting now is strong enough not to have to come in the house. ”
Hearing that he was not required to enter, Chu Qianwei immediately took out the Pure Heart Pendant and placed it on Miss Yao’s forehead. After a while, Miss Yao returned to her senses, as if she was in a small courtyard.
“You are… “Ahhh!”
Just as Miss Yao wanted to ask Ye Zhifa who they were, she saw the scene in the marriage chamber once again and exclaimed out loud.
Chu Qianwei immediately kowtowed to Miss Yao and consoled him, allowing him to gradually calm down.
“Big Sister Yao, we are not bad people, don’t be afraid. “You were delirious before, and we only tied you up to prevent you from hurting others.”
“Is that so? Now, can you release it for me? ”
Only then did Ye Zhifa realise that this Miss Yao was trembling when she spoke, looking rather timid and completely different from when she was mad.
Following that, Ye Zhifa and Chu Qianwei exchanged glances, and after confirming that the both of them felt that Miss Yao had fully recovered her consciousness, Chu Qianwei untied the ropes.
After being untied from the ropes, Miss Yao slowly stood up with Chu Qianwei’s support. However, her line of sight had never left the bridal chamber.
Ye Zhifa coughed lightly, attracting the attention of the Miss Yao. Then, he said: “Miss Yao, the two of us are disciples of the Bend Flower Sword Palace, and we have been ordered to come to the Return of Spring to City to assist City Lord Lan in investigating the murder of ghosts.”
The Miss Yao asked in puzzlement: “Monsters kill people?”
“That’s right. You might not know this, but you’ve already lost your sanity for as long as a month, and in this month, several more people were killed by ghosts. Looking back at where it came from, the first strange case in Return of Spring to City was when your husband died on the night of his wedding. So we wanted to ask if you know anything? ”
Miss Yao’s reaction exceeded Ye Zhifa’s expectations. After hearing Ye Zhifa’s explanation, she hurriedly took a step back and shook her head: “Young Master Zhang, he … He wasn’t killed by ghosts. No, he was killed by ghosts. Yes, he was killed by ghosts! ”
She repeated the last sentence several times, then suddenly burst into tears again. She leaned against the wall and slowly slid to the ground.
“I am an ominous person and Young Master Zhang died because of me. It wasn’t some ghost that killed him, it was me that killed him …”
Ye Zhifa walked to Miss Yao’s side and was about to ask further, but was suddenly covered by his mouth and gave him a sharp look.
“Don’t talk at a time like this, girls will naturally talk if they want to.”
Although he didn’t know if what Chu Qianwei said in his ears made sense, Ye Zhifa still obediently gave up on the idea of asking.
Sure enough, after Miss Yao lamented for a while, she suddenly told a story.
