    "In this case, that's finebut don't spread this matter to the outside world. Otherwise, I will be punished by God." Seeing that Fu Chengzhou was so generous, the man who had spoken before said it after thinking about it.  "Anyway, it's not a secret. This is the story of Liuye Town a long time ago. It can be regarded as my wife and grandpa's generation. At that time, Liuye Town came to a theater troupe. It is said that the opera was very good.  At that time, people of all ages liked to watch them, and even the officials in this town would invite them to go to the celebrations. There was an actor in that troupe, who sang well and was beautiful. She was called Wan Qiu. She was very kind-hearted.  When there was a famine in the village, she took the whole theater troupe to give porridge to the people in the village, so many people in the town liked her."

    The man stopped to take a sip of water, and then continued: "But it's useless if so many people like her. There are people who like her, and they are the sons of the Liu family in the west of the city. But the Liu family is a big family. Although they like to listen to operas, it is absolutely impossible  Let an actor marry into my family, so, these two people are entangled together, but there is no result."

    "Then what then? Why did the troupe sink into the lake?" Hearing this, Fu Chengzhou probably had some outline of the story in his mind.

    "That's the problem. At that time, Mr. Liu made an appointment with Wanqiu to elope together, but the two disappeared immediately. Later, the Liu family was naturally furious and went to the troupe to make trouble, but at least the troupe had officials to help.  It was a bit thin, so I made a small fuss. As a result, half a month later, the body of Mr. Liu was actually hung on the willow tree by the river. His death was extremely tragic. One leg seemed to be bitten off by some animal.  gone."

    "What about Late Autumn? Just Mr. Liu Family?" Fu Yebai asked, "Didn't they go together?"

    "I don't know, so at that time, the town began to spread rumors about whether this late autumn was changed by monsters. Even the troupe with them began to be suspected. The officials no longer protected them. After that, there was no one in the troupe's performances.  I went to see it."

    "What about the Liu family?"

    "The Liu family was originally hostile to the theater troupe because of their elopement, but now the only son died so badly, and finally disappeared in late autumn. It is even more important to target the theater troupe. After all, the officials will not  If they are protecting the theater troupe again, the Liu family will betray the official family. While they are asleep at night, they will be tricked into the basement of the official house, and then the door will be closed from the outside, oil will be poured inside, and cigarettes will be smoked outside.  Blowing it in, the whole troupe was suffocated inside. After being suffocated, the Liu family still couldn't let go of their hatred, thinking that there might be one or two survivors left, they put the troupe's corpses in two big bags and sank directly into the lake  .It is also declared to the outside world that except for monsters, there will be peace from now on.¡±

    "Then what? Then?" At this time, the man sitting at the other table also listened and came over to make a conversation.

    "Brother, may I ask who you are?"

    "Hey hey hey, I'm next door."

    Sure enough, gossip is everyone's favorite.  These words flashed in Fu Chengzhou's mind.

    "Then strange things started to happen in Liuye Town. Every time someone passed by the official's house, they would hear screams. There was a night when they passed by in the middle of the night, they were frightened crazy, and then people began to die in the town. The first  The one who died was the Liu family. From the master to the servant girl, all 70 members of the Liu family had their eyes gouged out and were strangled to death by willow branches. Then came the official Chen family at that time.  It¡¯s miserable. It¡¯s rumored by everyone that the ghost has possessed the willow branch and came out to claim his life.¡±

    After hearing this, Fu Chengzhou always felt that something was missing. After thinking for a while, he suddenly remembered: "Where is the clock? What's the matter with the clock?"

    "The opera troupe used to ring the big bell three times every time it opened, and they also listened to it when the Liu family and the Chen family were destroyed. After that, after about a hundred years, that is, when my wife and grandfather were there, the village went to  At the beginning, people died inexplicably, but this time all the dead were women. The way of death was exactly the same as before. The villagers had no choice but to invite Taoist priests. Taoist priests said that this was a man-made "scourge", and there was no way but to suppress it.  It happens once in a hundred years, he can suppress the souls of the dead at the bottom of the lake for two hundred years, and the time of not two hundred years has come."

    After hearing this story, Fu Yebai's scalp tingled: "What about late autumn? It didn't appear again after that?"

    "No, no one has seen her since then. However, some people said that when the troupe sank into the lake, they seemed to see a person who looked like her standing on the bridge, but they were not sure if it was true. Some people also said that she might have been killed together with Mr. Liu's family.  I don¡¯t know which wilderness it was thrown into.¡±

    After the story was finished, the big guy said a few idle words and then left.  Only Fu Chengzhou and Fu Yebai were left.

    "Eldest brother, where did you say Wanqiu went this time? Could it be that she is really a monster?"

    Fu Chengzhou YaoShaking his head, he also had doubts in his heart, and he couldn't get any answer based on this story that was circulated.

    "Go." Fu Chengzhou got up and walked out.

    "Where are we going? When are we going back to the mountain!"

    Fu Chengzhou took Fu Yebai into the place where the crime happened yesterday, and the body had already been carried away.  Only mottled bloodstains and an unpleasant bloody smell remained.

    There was no sunlight in the room, it was completely dark, and it looked a little gloomy. Suddenly, a strange-looking man with no blood color suddenly appeared from beside him, and he slapped Fu Yebai directly. Fortunately, Fu Chengzhou had sharp eyesight and quickly pushed him away.  Fu Yebai beside him turned around and drew his sword and stabbed the man opposite him in the heart, but the man didn't seem to respond, and continued to kick in a daze, almost hurting Fu Chengzhou.  Fu Chengzhou seemed to have seen something, and he didn't want to fight. He only knocked the man to the ground, but missed the vital part.

    "Second Master Huo, we are old friends, why bother?" As soon as the words were finished, the man opposite suddenly fell to the ground, and Huo Lianxiu came from the dark.

    "Huo just wants to see what the Fu family who said they want to be my backer are capable of."

    "Naturally, there is ability, but it would be too unkind for you to attack me with a puppet." Fu Chengzhou resisted the urge to curse, and perfectly interpreted what it means to smile on the face and mmp in his heart.

    "It's a bit strange that the word "honesty" came out of Brother Fu's mouth."

    "The surname is Huo, you are justified in attacking us?" Fu Yebai saw that his elder brother was probably being bullied and had nothing to say, so he decided to help Fu Chengzhou out of his voice, at least to help him save a little face, even if he went back to the mountain  treat yourself better.

    As a result, Huo Lianxiu ignored Fu Yebai at all, and asked directly: "What are you doing here? It seems that you have already heard the story about that troupe?"

    "You know?" Fu Chengzhou was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Huo Lianxiu knew it earlier than himself.  Before, he always thought that he was the first person to hear the gossip.

    "I don't know, just tell me."

    ?¡­¡­ Fu Chengzhou looked at Huo Lianxiu with a look of lovelessness.  Suddenly thinking about the matter of Huang Feng, he said: "The story will be told when there are more people at night, but don't you think it's strange that Huang Feng has also come. Isn't Huang Feng always in charge of the affairs of the royal court? You just  I'm not curious, why did they come to intervene in Liuye Town's case?"

    Huo Lianxiu turned around and replied blankly: "Liuye Town is the hometown of the Emperor's birth mother, the Empress Dowager Xiang. The Empress Dowager Xiang has a deep affection for Liuye Town, so the emperor sent Huang Feng here, but this thing is too weird.  However, the emperor was afraid of causing unnecessary commotion, so he only asked Grand Master He to select a team, under the name of the He family, to pretend to be a general cultivator sect to investigate the case."
