Chapter 75 Dance Ink Bookshop

Xue Wu gave Qin Lang and Gu Xiefei a wink and signaled them to come to the door together. They all knew something was wrong in the bookstore, but even the neighbors dared not get close to each other. After all, no one wanted to cause trouble.

Xue Wu said: "Mother-in-law is so pitiful, let's help her."

Gu Xiefei smiled bitterly and said, "How to help? There are too many pitiful people like her in the world. We can't help, and we have no ability to help." He was just a monk who caught monsters and ghosts, and asked him to fight against the county magistrate's mansion? Gu Xiefei had never thought about it.

Qin Lang saw someone beside him looking at this side. It should be the neighbors around him. After walking over, the man quickly turned around and left. Qin Lang caught up with him, grabbed his shoulder and said, "Brother, stay."

The man lowered his head and said, "I don't know you."

"Brother, do you live in this area? I have no other intentions, I just want to ask if Grandma He and the others have granddaughters?"

The man shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of it, but I have seen a woman in red enter her bookstore in the past few nights, maybe she is a relative of her family."

Qin Lang nodded, and the man left quickly without wanting to be troublesome.

Xue Wu and Gu Xiefei have not reached a consensus yet. Xue Wu believes that Grandma He should help, Gu Xiefei insists that they should leave. Xue Wu's dough-making technique is still in the valid period, so leave Jiangyuan Mansion as soon as possible.

He found out that Banyuemen Twelve Ponds were mobilizing all the forces in the city to find them. Once they were leaked, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Qin Lang looked at the bookstore and found that Grandma He who had just sat inside was missing. The three of them were worried that the old lady would have an accident and hurried inside to look for it.

There is a small courtyard inside the bookstore. There is a well in the corner of the yard. Grandma He stood at the wellhead, holding the wellhead with both hands, and heading straight to the wellhead.

Gu Xiefei saw that this was amazing and rushed over. Although his body was bloated, he was the fastest one among the three. Before Grandma He jumped into the well, she dragged her back.

Grandma He cried, "Let me die, just let me die, I can't save the old man, so I can only go to Huangquan Road first... wait for him..."

Xue Wu was kind-hearted. Seeing Grandma He crying so sadly, her eyes turned red: "Mother-in-law, don't look for a shortcoming, we will definitely help you."

Grandma He looked at them with tears in her eyes and said, "I appreciate your kindness, but... but my wife was taken away by the county magistrate's office... You go, don't worry about me... I don't want to implicate you."

Qin Lang asked Xuewu to accompany Grandma He to sit in the bookstore in case she was looking for a short sight. He and Gu Xiefei stood by the well and whispered: "Is there any way?"

Gu Xiefei scratched his head and said, "There is a big deal. It is clearly the bastard, the bastard, who framed and wanted to dominate other people's granddaughter."

Qin Lang whispered: "We killed all the eight people, and they have nothing to do with the old man."

"Murder is not the key. Do you think Ren Jiaguang cares about the life and death of those constables? What he cares about is only his beautiful granddaughter."

"But I've inquired, the old couple has no granddaughter at all."

Gu Xiefei said, "This is strange, who do they see?" He sniffed hard and whispered, "There is a demonic energy!"

Qin Lang glared at him. At this time, Gu Xiefei was so hostile to Xue Wu.

Gu Xiefei knew that he had misunderstood his meaning, and pointed at the wellhead and gave Qin Lang a wink.

Qin Lang immediately understood that Gu Xie was not referring to this well, and there was a demonic energy in it.

The two of them approached the well, with their heads leaning against the well, looking down. The well was not deep. Under the sky, the water surface reflected their faces. Qin Lang couldn't feel anything special. Gu Xiefei took a deep breath and said, "Strange, this demonic energy seems to be there and none, intermittent, and it should be gone now, no! Is it a ghost energy?"

Qin Lang saw his unpredictable look with his eyes closed, thinking that he was making a fool of himself again, so he endured it and did not interrupt him.

Gu Xiefei opened his eyes and said, "There must be a monster who has stayed here."

He stood up and came to Grandma He. Gu Xiefei tried his best to relax his tone and kind: "Grandma He, I want to ask you something, has anyone killed in the well in your yard?"

Grandma He was stunned by his question, and stopped crying and looked at Gu Xiefei: "You...how do you know?"

When Qin Lang heard Grandma He's answer, he knew that Gu Xiefei had really seen it.

"Who? How did she die?"

Grandma He sighed and said, "I don't know much about this. The well in the yard has existed for hundreds of years. In the past, this place was the General of Zhenguo. It was Yan Beihui, the general of Zhenguo who rebelled against Dayong a hundred years ago. This well also existed since the General's Mansion."

Qin Lang and Xue Wu didn't know who Yan Beihui was, but for Gu Xiefei, this person was well-known. A general who rebelled a hundred years ago almost subverted the Da Yong's regime. Although the rebellion failed in the end, it killed the emperor who was in charge of Da Yong at that time, which shook Da Yong's foundation. Until today, Da Yong's vitality has not recovered.

Grandma He said, "There is a name in this well called Ruyu. Later, the general was defeated and died in the battle of Baijiang. The imperial army rushed in. When they arrived at the general's mansion, Yan Ruyu, the general's youngest daughter, continued to fight hard with a hundred soldiers. In the end, she was left alone in the mansion. Yan Ruyu committed suicide and jumped into the well. The well water was stained with blood. Many people were sent to salvage the body. There was no gain in one day or one night. Later, there was a legend that there was a secret passage underground. She actually escaped through secret passages, but no one had seen it."

Xue Wu was fascinated by the sound of hearing and whispered: "What's next?"

Grandma He said: "Later, the imperial court launched a massacre in Jiangyuan Prefecture. At that time, Jiangyuan Prefecture was full of corpses. Because there were too many corpses and it was difficult to deal with, they simply threw them into the Bailong River to feed the fish. I heard that the bodies blocked the river at that time, and the river water of Bailong River was dyed red. It took half a month to clear it again."

Gu Xiefei said: "This well..."

Grandma He realized that she had off topic and sighed, "I heard that the water in this well turned red from the day the general's daughter committed suicide by jumping into the well. It lasted for eighteen years before it was clarified. Of course, I have heard that I have never seen it with my own eyes. The Jiangyuan Mansion you see is basically rebuilt. This Wumo Bookstore was founded by my father-in-law, and it has been sixty years since I married into the He family. Anyway, it has never changed. We old couple have no children in their lives and depend on each other for life... but they would have encountered this sudden disaster..."

Speaking of this, I felt sad again, and lowered my head and wiped my tears.

At this time, someone came to send a betrothal gift outside, but there were not many betrothal gifts. Grandma He was so angry that she almost stopped her anger. The gang of lords from the county magistrate's mansion didn't say much. After putting down the betrothal gift, she told her to come to welcome the bride at the Youth hour tonight.

In fact, Ren Jiaguang was not a wedding reception. He was simply a domineering woman under the banner of a formal marriage. He was full of evil deeds and countless women died at his hands.

The people of Jiangyuan Prefecture complained, but no one dared to confront the Ren family. In order to avoid the persecution of the Ren family, countless people have left their hometowns in recent years.

Grandma He looked at the bunch of betrothal gifts they sent, and sighed and said, "Thank you, kind people, you should go. We are over 60 years old and will die. It's no pity. If we implicate three of you, even if we are in the dark, I will feel uneasy."

Qin Lang hooked Gu Xiefei's fingers, and Gu Xiefei followed him helplessly. Qin Lang said, "Lao Gu, since we encounter this, we can't ignore it, let alone Mr. He was framed. You are good at passing through the wall. Can you find a way to rescue him? It's also a merit."

Gu Xiefei said: "It's not that I don't want to save it, but..."

Seeing Qin Lang's contemptuous eyes, he sighed and said, "Let's do it, I'll go and inquire and see if I can find an opportunity."

Qin Lang patted his shoulder. Although Gu Xiefei looked a little vulgar, he was full of justice in his bones. Although they had not been in contact for a long time, Qin Lang was still very confident in Gu Xiefei.

Gu Xie had to get up and go out to inquire about Mr. He first.

Grandma He promised that they would not commit suicide, but made up her mind. After the father and daughter left, she lit the Wumo Bookstore. She used the excuse of being tired and went back to her room to rest, and asked Qin Lang and Xuewu to help her close the door of the bookstore when they left.

After Grandma He left, Xue Wu said: "Brother, I have an idea. Why not pretend to be Grandma He's granddaughter and sneak into the county magistrate's mansion to kill that bad guy."

Qin Lang shook his head. Before Xue Wu finished speaking, he had guessed her idea. He did not agree to Xue Wu's adventure. Taoist Tongguan is one of the many accomplices of the County Magistrate's Mansion. There are still many powerful figures in the County Magistrate's Mansion. If they meet, wouldn't Xue Wu be dangerous?

Qin Lang said: "I will go there too. If you don't know how to make noodles and disguise, you will make me look beautiful."

"But!"

"It's nothing, but you don't even think about it. Let's talk about it when Mr. Gu comes back after finding out the news."

Xue Wu nodded and whispered: "I'll go see my mother-in-law."

Qin Lang nodded.

After Xue Wu left, Qin Lang suddenly felt the muscles on the fingertips of the middle finger of his left hand suddenly jumped, and he was stunned. He looked down at the fingertips without any abnormality. It should be that the White Bone Bi Shenming reacted.

Qin Lang slightly adjusted the direction of his middle finger and felt a faint beating again. This was a kind of inspiration. Qin Lang walked towards the messy pile of books on the ground, moved the books away, and found an old scroll of paintings from the ground below.

When Qin Lang touched the scroll with his left hand, blue light appeared faintly on his fingertips of his middle finger, and this scroll must be strange.

Qin Lang carefully unfolded the scroll. On the picture, there was a girl wearing a red dress dancing with her sword. The woman's eyebrows were picturesque and beautiful, but her eyes looked cold and arrogant, as if she was arrogant, and her eyebrows were full of murderous aura.

Qin Lang looked down at the signature.
