- Chen Huaixiu calmed down his emotions before turning back to the town. But instead of going home, he went straight to the Shen Family Ancestral Hall located in the north of the street.
It was already dark now, and the old servant of the Shen family who was guarding the ancestral hall lit a white lantern, picked up the lintel and hung it up.
Only then did he see the family appear at the gate. The old servant quickly saluted and said, "Madam, why are you here so late?"
"I want to stay with him here tonight." Chen Huaixiu said lightly and walked straight into the ancestral hall.
The girl with thick eyebrows stopped and said harshly to the old servant: "As long as I'm here, you can pack up and go home."
The old servant has almost no days off all year round, so when he takes a rare holiday, it feels like he has received an amnesty, and he has no time to say thank you to the girl with thick eyebrows.
He is not worried about the safety of the ancestral hall at all. Once he comes to Haisha Town, he is his own people, and he will not close his house at night unless he picks up things on the road. Secondly, a girl with thick eyebrows is so masculine that she can beat ten of him, so what is there to worry about?
In the main hall of the ancestral hall, the rankings of the ancestors of the Shen family are enshrined. There is a black velvet curtain behind the main hall. Behind the curtain is a golden nanmu coffin. In front of the coffin is a fruit incense burner. The cigarettes in the burner have been extinguished long ago and the fruits are all shriveled.
Chen Huaixiu took out the handkerchief, wiped the incense table clean, and lit the incense again. Then he walked around to the incense table, holding the coffin and weeping.
"If you know, don't blame me, just blame you for dying early and leaving me alone to hold the door of your Shen family." She looked at things and missed people, feeling sad and crying softly.
"If we can't figure out how you died, the Shen family will still have unknown dead people. I have no reason to avenge you."
As she spoke, her expression gradually became firmer, but her voice became more and more erratic as she said: "That's it, it's settled. You won't be allowed to make trouble later. You owe me everything you say." ,do you know?"

In that room, Guo Donglin was still anxiously waiting for the news.
¡°If Xu Liu hadn¡¯t warned him first, he would have gathered his hardcore men and prepared to rush into Chen Huaixiu¡¯s house at night to silence him.
Finally, Guo Qilin, who was sweating profusely, ran back and shouted with joy: "Let's go, let's go, Li Shizhen is gone!"
"Oh, is it true?" Guo Donglin grabbed his brother's wrist and asked, "Did you see it with your own eyes?"
"No, the woman personally put him on the boat and wiped her tears for a while on the dock."
"Wiping tears?"
"From what they said, that boy is hopeless." Guo Qilin said happily: "After sending Li Shizhen away, the woman went to the ancestral hall again, hugging her dead husband's coffin and crying."
"Oh, so she accepted her fate?" Guo Donglin looked happy.
"She doesn't accept her fate. Could it be that her dead husband comes out and speaks for her?" Guo Qilin sarcastically said, but also worried:
"The only question now is whether Li Shizhen told her that the boy was poisoned."
"Then it has nothing to do with me." Guo Donglin said with a relieved smile:
"That woman is smart and won't hold on to this matter anymore Once the child dies, it will be in her best interest for me, an outsider, to be the leader of the gang. If it were someone from a branch of the Shen family, who would take it? Does she, the widow of the previous gang leader, take her seriously?"
"Ah, this is really true." Guo Qilin suddenly realized it and couldn't help but said happily: "Now my brother's position as gang leader is completely secure!"
"Hahahaha, when has my position ever been unstable?! It's just that woman who refused to be appointed and has been struggling to her death." Guo Donglin laughed evilly, with a flash of passion in his eyes and said:
"As soon as that child dies, I will propose marriage to her and see if she will refuse this time!"
"Then she will definitely not refuse. Isn't it just to say goodbye to her dead husband today? I won't dare to do it again if she cuckolds him." Guo Qilin laughed loudly.
"I'm afraid the damn coffin board won't be able to hold it down tonight!"
"Don't tell me if you see through it!" Guo Donglin couldn't help but laugh.

In the middle of the night, a boat with a lantern from the Shachuan Gang docked.
The gangster who was on duty at the pier rubbed his sleepy eyes and came forward to check, and saw the thick-browed man next to the lady.
"Brother Xiaohu, have you just come back?"
"Madam ordered Dr. Li to be sent to Xisha. Do you dare to cheat on me?" Xiaohu, a man with thick eyebrows, threw a wine bag to the gang members.
"Just drink less to keep the cold away. Don't make any mistakes."
"Hey, thank you Mr. Hu, don't worry you won't drink too much." The eyes of several gang members were fixed on the wine bag and couldn't move away.
No one noticed and followed XiaohuThere were also a few new faces getting off the boat.
That was Li Shizhen, Zhao Hao, Gao Wu and others who switched to the blue short game of the Shachuan Gang.
After leaving the brightly lit pier, everyone¡¯s anxious hearts finally settled down.
Life for the Shachuan Gang was not easy. Except for the dock, there were not even a few lights on the road in the center of the town. They are so dark that they no longer have to worry about others recognizing them.
Along the way, they met two teams of night watchmen, but Xiaohu easily defeated them. Everyone came to the Shen family ancestral hall in the north of the town without any hindrance, and gently knocked on the door knocker.
"Who?" The thick-browed Huniu's voice immediately sounded from inside the door.
"Me." Xiaohu responded.
With the sound of the door bolt, the door opened a crack, and everyone filed in. Huniu stuck her head out and looked around. Seeing that no one was following her on the street, she drew back her neck and closed the door.
??~~
The thick-browed man stood guard at the door, and Huniu took Zhao Hao and Li Shizhen into the Shen family ancestral hall.
Looking at the gloomy ancestral hall, Mr. Zhao felt a chill. He quickly and respectfully lit incense on the tablets and muttered:
"Don't be surprised if there are ghosts. It's okay to accept strange things. They are all working for your family, so don't make the mistake of being a good person."
Li Shizhen was stunned for a moment as he watched, thinking to himself: Why is the master of this scientific sect more superstitious than me?
"You should sing whichever mountain you go to." Mr. Zhao smiled coquettishly. Science is not afraid of ghosts, but scientists are afraid of ghosts, which is reasonable.
Everyone turned behind the curtain. Chen Huaixiu had already calmed down. He put his hand on the coffin board and said: "The seven descendant nails have been removed. The rest will be bothered by you two."
Li Shizhen nodded, and Zhao Hao and he were fully armed again.
Chen Huaixiu came to the southeast corner of the mourning hall and burned paper money with a brazier, which was meant to appease the souls of the deceased.
Suddenly a gust of wind blew in through the gap in the curtains, almost blowing out the candles on the altar table.
He rolled up the burning paper money again and made a series of whirlwinds in the air before the ashes fell on the coffin board.
Zhao Hao and Li Shizhen were holding up their hands and putting on gloves. They were so frightened that they almost knelt on the ground together.
"This is too evil" Lao Li, who did not believe in evil, could not help but feel excited.
Mr. Zhao wanted to say that we should dodge, but he was so frightened that he could not speak.
But Chen Huaixiu stood up calmly and said to the two of them: "My late husband has agreed to open the coffin, so you can feel free to do it."
Mr. Zhao glanced at this woman in surprise, and his evaluation of her was even higher.
Seeing that such a weak woman was so bold, the two men could not be cowed, so they worked together to lift the coffin board and put it aside.
Fortunately, there were no zombies jumping out of the coffin, and there were no lifelike mummies, only a slightly black skeleton.
There are still bright black marks on the thoracic vertebrae of the skeleton
ps. The fourth update is asking for monthly votes. I would like to report that after these two days of active treatment, my eyes are basically no longer painful or itchy during the day, but they no longer hurt after dark. I finished writing the fourth update while resisting the itch. I didn't dare to write anymore, so I put on eye ointment and fell asleep.
