Liaozhai: A scholar should draw a sword

Chapter 35 Painted Skin
After that, Wang Sheng quietly brought the woman who called herself Xin'er back to the study.

The two of them are happy together.

Wang Sheng did not dare to let his wife know about this matter.

His wife, Lou Shi, is a well-known jealousy. If she knew that her husband brought back a woman of unknown origin, it would be a wonder if she didn't fall out.

Therefore, Wang Sheng could only hide his beauty in his study, and if he could hide it for a day, he would find another way if he couldn't.

"Brother Zhou, you must keep this matter a secret..."

After talking about this romance, Wang Sheng urged him again and again.

Zhou Yu sighed, and persuaded with earnestness and earnestness: "Brother, although a beautiful woman is good, don't be blindly greedy for pleasure, your body is important."

"Well, thank you Brother Zhou for the reminder."

He said it quickly, and as soon as he got home, Wang Sheng couldn't wait to find an excuse that he was going to study in the study, and then hurried towards the backyard.

The study is in the plum grove behind the courtyard, some distance away from the courtyard, and the environment is very quiet.

As soon as Wang Sheng entered the study, an enchanting woman came up to him...

There is no need to say a lot of joy.

On the other side, Lou Shi had already laid down, but he didn't feel sleepy.

My husband has changed a lot recently. He stays in the study day and night, saying that he wants to study hard to get a good grade in the next year's exam.

Of course Lou is happy and supportive of this.

But seeing her husband lose weight day by day, it is inevitable that she feels distressed.

Since I couldn't sleep, I got up and put on my clothes, and went to the kitchen to cook a bowl of porridge. I added minced chicken and shrimp to the porridge, so as to nourish my husband's body.

Afterwards, she carried the food box and walked to the study, preparing to surprise her husband.

From a distance, Lou Shi saw that the lights were still on in the study, so she couldn't help slowing down, wanting to secretly see her husband studying hard.

When he came to the window, Lou quietly peeped out from the window lattice...

I was so shocked that the food in my hand almost fell to the ground.

Because, the person sitting at the desk was not her husband, but a woman, who was drawing something with her head down.

But her husband was sleeping soundly on the bamboo couch by the wall.

After seeing the situation in the house, Lou finally realized that her husband had been lying to her.

It's all a lie to study hard, the difference is to find an excuse to stay in the study with the vixen.

Lou Shi is a jealous vat, how can he swallow this breath, immediately put down the food box and prepare to rush in to catch a double.

At this moment, the woman sitting at the desk suddenly raised her head...

Luckily, Lou stretched out his hand to cover his mouth in time, his eyes were wide open, his heartbeat almost stopped, accompanied by a strong urge to urinate.

Although what she saw was only the profile of the woman, that half of her face was really terrifying, as if it had been scalded with boiling oil.

How could a husband like such a woman?I'm afraid it will cause nightmares for several nights just by looking at it.

Just when Lou was in a daze, the woman picked up a soft dough-like thing from the desk.

Vaguely, Lou saw that it was a human face mask.

I saw the woman put the mask on her face, arranged up, down, left, and right, and suddenly became a beautiful woman like a flower...

Even though Lou Shi was a little bolder than ordinary women, she broke into a cold sweat from fright at this moment.

She knew in her heart that the woman in the house was either a ghost or a demon. If the other party found out, she and her husband would probably die.

So, suppressing the fear and panic in my heart, I lowered my body and crawled to the corner quietly.

It's a pity that there was still a little movement inadvertently, which immediately alarmed Xin'er in the room.

"Who?"

Xin'er gave a cold drink and rushed out quickly.

"Meow~"

Fortunately, a stray cat sprang out of nowhere and ran towards the fence.

"Hmph, come back to me!"

Xin'er snorted coldly, and when Void grabbed it, the cat flew upside down and hovered in front of her eyes.

Then, a ray of green light shrouded the wild cat in her eyes, and she raised her hand and bit her finger, dripping a drop of blood on the wild cat's forehead.

A strange thing happened: the wild cat suddenly became several times bigger, and its eyes became blood red.

Poor Lou was so frightened that she huddled into a ball and hid at the base of the wall, covering her mouth and nose with her hands, for fear that she would not be able to control her voice...

"Go and find a fresh heart for me..."

Xin'er gave orders to the wild cat that had been turned into a cat demon by her spell.

"Meow~"

The cat demon responded, leaped forward, and quickly disappeared into the vast darkness.

Seeing Xin'er entered the study again, Lou waited for a while, then quietly climbed to the fence, and then carefully climbed to the door...

"Bang bang bang~"

"Open the door, open the door, please open the door quickly..."

Lou didn't know where the strength came from, and rushed to the door of the Zhou Mansion in one breath and knocked on the door desperately.

"Who? This big night..."

Zhang boldly rubbed his sleepy eyes, and asked dissatisfiedly as he walked.

"My concubine is from the Lou family, and my husband is Mr. Zhou's classmate Wang Sheng..."

Hearing this, Zhang Bold didn't dare to be negligent, and hastened to open the door to welcome Lou Shi in, and then led Lou Shi to the outside of the South Courtyard.

After all, if a woman came to see the master at night, it must not be for a private meeting, it must be something serious at home.

Not long after, Zhou Yu came out with his clothes on.

"Master Zhou, please save my husband..."

Lou couldn't help kneeling on the ground and weeping bitterly.

At first, she wanted to go to the government, but then she thought that the case of the cat demon was solved by Master Zhou and the people from the government, so she might as well go to Master Zhou directly.

Besides, Xianggong and Mr. Zhou are classmates after all, so we can't just leave them alone, right?

"Brothers and sisters, aren't you a foolish brother Zhesha? Hurry up and get up!"

Zhou Yu hurried forward and helped Lou up.

As a result, Lou's body went limp, and he fell into a faint in his arms.

Fortunately, Ying Ning stepped forward to support Lou Shi in time, and the servant girls Qiu Xiang and Chun Lan also ran over when they heard the movement.

After a while, Lou woke up and told the story with a weeping voice, which made several maidservants tremble and huddle together.

"Master Zhou, please save my husband, please..."

"Ah!" Zhou Yu couldn't help but sighed: "Brothers and sisters, to tell you the truth, I noticed it during the party at night, and I also advised Wang Sheng."

"what?"

Lou was a little surprised.

"As far as the current situation is concerned, Wang Sheng's life is not in danger for the time being.

However, according to what you said, it was not an ordinary female ghost who haunted Wang Sheng, and the previous cat demon murder should be controlled by that witch secretly. "

Lou asked pitifully, "Then...then what should we do now?"

"In this way, you go home first, and you must pretend that nothing happened.

If it is really impossible, I will lie in bed and pretend to be sick, and tomorrow I will go to the study in person to meet that witch for a while. "

Having said that, Lou finally felt a little more at ease, and thanked Zhou Yu again and again.

"Brothers and sisters, you're welcome, I'll send someone to take you home right now."
