Chapter 1177 A Black Cat

The Chen Family Ancestral Hall outside the city.

Torches were lit one after another, and the soldiers covered their faces with cloths covering their noses and mouths.

Ye Zheng ran to check one by one, and came back to report: "Master, it's done."

The silk handkerchief in Shen Lie's arms was also wrapped around his face at the moment, and the high bridge of the nose pushed up the silk handkerchief, showing a more profound outline.

He stepped down the stone path first, and said lightly: "Let's go."

Before the sky was completely dark, the team of hundreds of people, with a hundred torches, gradually disappeared into the dark passage and the discussions of nearby villagers.

Xia Zhaoyi's mount stopped at the side door of Qingyue Pavilion.

The cart that came to deliver the ice cubes was parked outside the side door, and the servants came out to carry it, bumped into Xia Zhaoyi, and greeted Xia Zhaoyi one after another.

Xia Zhaoyi went in with the servants, and just passed through the corridor, when he saw a person squatting on the ground secretly wiping tears.

The servants could not disturb her, Xia Zhaoyi got close and recognized that it was Dai Yu.

The tall man propped his forehead, shrugged his shoulders, and suppressed his sobs.

Xia Zhaoyi frowned, not knowing whether to make a sound.

She knew how difficult it was for this group of dark people to walk along the way. In many cases, the friendship between comrades who have lived and died together is even stronger than brotherhood.

"Here comes the coffin!" A servant rushed from the direction of the gate and shouted, "The coffin is here!"

Many people ran out and ran to the front yard.

Dai Yu wiped his face with his hands and got up from the corner.

Looking back to see the girl standing on the small stone steps, Dai Yu was taken aback, wiped his face again, stepped forward and said, "Ali."

Looking at Dai Yu's red eyes, Xia Zhaoyi said in a low voice, "Brother Dai, my condolences."

"No," Dai Yu squeezed out a smile, "I'm fine. What's sad is Du Xuan. Zhu Chang and the others were all sent by him. The young master asked me to accompany Du Xuan. I'm a waste. ran out..."

"Is Shen Lie back?"

"No, the young master needs to stay outside the city to host."

Xia Zhaoyi nodded lightly: "Mmm..."

The movement in the front yard became louder and louder, and a coffin was carried in by a group of men.

Thinking of Mrs. Qu's words, especially the scene of Zhu Chang's tragic death mentioned, Xia Zhaoyi whispered: "He hasn't been encoffined yet."

"Well, but it's already been picked out." Dai Yu said.

Picking up this word made Xia Zhaoyi sigh in her heart, thinking that there was another seriously injured person, she said, "How is Wei Dongyou, I'll go and see him."

"In Yuexi Courtyard," Dai Yu said, looked around, and called to a passing servant, "Come here!"

When the servant put down his things and ran over, Dai Yu looked back at Xia Zhaoyi, and said sadly: "A Li, I have to help Zhu Chang to be buried, Du Xuan also needs me to watch, so let him take you to find Wei Dongyou. "

"Well," Xia Zhaoyi said, "Brother Dai, take care."

"I'm fine!" Dai Yu forced a smile.

Dai Yu left with the coffin carried in the front yard, and Xia Zhaoyi followed the servants to Yuexi courtyard.

With a sound of "meow", a skinny black cat suddenly ran across the garden.

Xia Zhaoyi paused for a while, looking in the direction the wild cat left.

The flowers and trees along the road were driven by it, and the branches swayed wildly.

"It's it again! This dead cat!" The servant who led the way cursed, and then hurriedly mumbled. Xia Zhaoyi couldn't understand, but he could guess the content from his expression and language.

The house servant is about forty years old, with a stooped back, and he is a native of Hengxiang.

After Li Sanding's incident, Du Xuan recruited another group of people, and he had a better understanding of the details of this group of people.

In addition to Du Xuan himself, Wang Fengnian and Ning Anlou also secretly checked these servants, and they all confirmed that there was no problem.

"Meow!" The black cat went back and forth, sitting on the porch and shouting at them who approached.

The servants went to pick up the stone to drive it away.

The black cat was very sensitive and fled away at once.

"It's too unlucky!" The servant said angrily, and began to mutter again, similar to praying for the safety of the house.

Xia Zhaoyi had a little impression of this cat, and had seen it many times nearby, so he asked, "Has it been to the mansion before?"

"No, it's only wandering around on weekdays," said the servant, who had goosebumps all over his body. "This stinky cat, it came in today for a funeral. I saw it several times just now, and it came and went in the mansion..."

Xia Zhaoyi looked thoughtfully at the direction in which the wild cat left: "If people don't recruit wild cats, wild cats won't invite people. It barked at us just now."

The servant didn't understand what she wanted to say, so he said respectfully, "Miss Xia?"

"It may be starving," Xia Zhaoyi said, "but when I came here just now, I saw that the rotten bucket outside the back alley was still there."

Those buckets of rotten water were put by the pig farmers in Hengxiang, and the leftover soup of neighbors and neighbors would be dumped there. Every day, people would carry the buckets home to feed the pigs, and wild cats would often go to eat.

"That's right, I also saw that rotten bucket," said the servant, "then it has no reason to come in."

"I'll go to Yuexi Courtyard by myself," Xia Zhaoyi looked at the servant, "Please prepare some food to find the cat, and by the way, look for anything strange in the mansion."

"Something strange?" The servant swallowed, but still nodded, "Yes, Miss Xia, I'll go right away."

Yuexi Courtyard is remote and deserted, in the westernmost corner of Qingyue Pavilion.

When Wu Shaoning came back, he deliberately arranged for Wei Dongyou to be far away from the main hall, so as to prevent him from hearing the sound of the funeral and being even more irritated.

Wu Shaoning is also here at this time.

Wei Dongyou's mind is still unclear, and many people are taking care of him inside.

Wu Shaoning sat blankly in the yard, with a cup of white tea on the stone table in front of him, the slanted sunset shone on his face, his eyes and brows were expressionless.

Hearing the movement at the door, Wu Shaoning stared blankly, saw the girl's face clearly, got up quickly and said, "Miss Ali."

Xia Zhaoyi smiled lightly: "I'll come and see Wei Dongyou."

After traveling around the state for many months, Wu Shaoning had already experienced the girl's medical skills, but his eyes were filled with mist, and he choked up, "Miss Ali, this way please."

There were a lot of people sitting or standing in the room, and Zhan Jiuye and Zeng Jishi, who were busy with the challenge of going to the world to study, were also there.

Seeing Xia Zhaoyi, everyone hurriedly gathered around.

Xia Zhaoyi briefly asked them, and walked to the bed, Wei Dongyou closed his eyes and fell asleep, his body was only covered with a thin blanket, his limbs were not naked, his legs were tied with wooden boards, and covered with bandages.

Xia Zhaoyi stretched out his hand and pressed gently on his leg, while two doctors were beside him describing his injury.

Finally, a doctor sighed: "From now on, I'm afraid I can only be with the bed as a companion."

Xia Zhaoyi didn't say a word, but put more weight on several parts with his fingers, and pressed down hard.

Wei Dongyou in his sleep reacted strongly, frowning in pain, almost waking up.

Wu Shaoning and the others were startled.

"Miss Ali!" Wu Shaoning whispered.

"Don't worry," Xia Zhaoyi looked at Wu Shaoning, "Let me try it, he may not really be paralyzed."

Wu Shaoning was overjoyed: "Miss Ali, do you have a solution?"

"You guys go out first," Xia Zhaoyi said, looking towards Zhan Jiuye, "I have Lao Jiuye and Zeng Jishi to stay as my helpers."

"Okay!" Zhan Jiuye hurriedly said, "Miss Ali, tell me, we will listen to whatever you want!"
