Chen Guogong's mansion, between the rockery, Ji Jun got up and thought of the bone he touched just now, and his heart was full of surprise.

She stood firm, squatted down slowly, and slowly groped for the bone that tripped her with her hands.

Ji Jun's fingers slowly moved along the bone. The whole bone was exposed to the ground, and it was nearly two feet long. When he touched it again, he slowly found the femoral head and femoral neck!
Ji Yun felt that this was an adult's femur, which was so thick that it was most likely a man's, so he couldn't help feeling a chill in his heart.

Li Zhan and Li Mi also stopped. After seeing Ji Jun's movements, they also lightly tested the surroundings with their feet. If there were some bumps under their feet, or some The two of them also tried to touch the places where the feet were broken, and without exception, they were almost all bones!
These bones are long and short, thick and thin.But because a few people were not born in the same family, it is impossible to tell what part of the bone it is.

In particular, there are some bones that are so short that it is even impossible to distinguish whether they are human bones or animal bones.

The cool breeze was blowing, and even with Li Zhan and Li Mi by their side, Ji Jun still felt a heavy cloudiness, which made people feel horrified.

Ji Jun didn't dare to stay too long, she told Li Zhan and Li Mi to pick up a few small pieces of bones, and it was best to touch the relatively complete bones that were not broken or damaged and bring them back.Ji Jun plans to ask Zhou Huan to find the master of Dali Temple to identify him.

After that, the three of them continued to walk towards the lake.

Along the way, Ji Junren walked more cautiously and slowly, and there were still places where there were footsteps from time to time, but they didn't stop any longer.

As he got closer to the lake, Ji Jun felt the Gu worms moving extremely violently.

About ten meters away from the lake, there are several rows of trees, forming a small forest.

Ji Yun wandered around in this small forest for a while, and felt that the movements of the Gu worms were violent and disturbing.

But when the three of them quietly walked to the lake, the Gu worm's movements slowed down again.

So Ji Jun went back into the woods again, and carefully inspected the grove.

The trees in the forest are very common. As far as the eye can see, they are willows, pine trees, locust trees, poplar trees, peach trees, apricot trees and other common tree species.As he shuttled through the trees, Ji Jun didn't find anything unusual.

Ji Jun moved slowly in the forest while feeling the message from the Gu worm.

Gradually, she found that within a range of about four or five meters in diameter, the throbbing of Gu worms was intense.

Walking, walking, Ji Jun feels like a gossip map!

However, she doesn't understand the connotation of this gossip!
However, from the flower garden to here is already the guide of gossip, so is it still gossip here?

Then, Ji Jun remembered the meaning of the five elements' mutual generation and mutual restraint:
Gold can produce water, water can produce wood, wood can produce fire, fire can produce earth, and earth can produce metal.

Wood can overcome earth, earth can overcome water, water can overcome fire, fire can overcome metal, and metal can overcome wood.

Li Mi and Li Zhan looked around warily, knowing that she was thinking about something, and did not dare to disturb her.

Ji Jun silently thought about the sequence of mutual generation and mutual restraint:
Native metal - gold water - water wood - gold overcomes wood
In the blink of an eye, Ji Jun carefully observed the arrangement of the trees in the forest, and she suddenly discovered that in the area where the Gu insects were active, the trees formed a "golden" character among each other!

One stroke and one stroke are poplar trees, the three horizontal lines are willow trees, and the vertical one in the middle is a pine tree!
And two points are locust trees!

Ji Jun's heart suddenly brightened!
She searched carefully between the two dots and one vertical point of the word "Jin", that is, the area between the locust tree and the pine tree, and felt the movements of the Gu insects.

Sure enough, here, the movements of Gu worms are very different from those in other places.

Gu worms seem to be desperately searching for something, searching for something!
Ji Jun stopped in front of the last pine tree and said to Li Mi,
"Big cousin, please help me dig this place!"

Li Mi took out a sharp dagger, and according to Ji Jun's guidance, dug up the soil under the tree on the side of the pine tree on the line connecting the pine tree and the locust tree.

I dug and dug, and sure enough, when I dug about two feet deep, I found a box.

And as the soil was gradually peeled off and removed, the Gu worm's movements became more and more violent!Very disturbed and excited!
The wooden box is about five inches long, three inches wide, and three inches high, and is made of heavy wood.

The moment he took the wooden box in his hand, Ji Jun felt the Gu worms in his body suddenly throbbing like crazy. This feeling made Ji Jun very uncomfortable and almost fainted!
Ji Jun hurriedly held his breath, calmed down secretly, and tried to communicate with the Gu worms with his own thoughts. The Gu worms might have adapted to the exposed wooden box and gradually calmed down.

Ji Jun asked Li Mi to pile up the excavated pit with soil as it was, and at the same time, did not forget to cover it with some branches and weeds.

The three of them did not dare to delay, and quickly left Chen Guogong's mansion.

In summer, at dawn, when Li Mi quietly sent Ji Jun back to Dangui Garden, it was still dark.

After Ji Jun tidied up a little, it became a little blurry.

Hearing the noise, Ji Min came to Ji Jun's room with his clothes on.

Seeing Ji Min's expression, Ji Jun knew that she must not have slept well last night, and thinking of the abnormal movements of the Gu insects on her body, it might also affect Ji Min's sleep.

The detoxified Gu worms on Ji Min's body are separated from Ji Jun's body. In this way, because the "Pu Lian" Gu poison in the body may be affected by the body's emotions, physical conditions, or external shocks, such as weather changes, sudden There are fluctuations due to shock and other reasons, so there will be a reaction between Gu and Gu.

But to a large extent, Ji Min was influenced by Ji Jun, and Ji Min's side is not easy to influence Ji Jun.

However, it seems that although Ji Min's complexion is not good, he still has energy, and his speech is not particularly weak, so he feels at ease.

Seeing Ji Min's worried expression, Ji Jun patted her hand with some pity, and comforted her,

"Don't worry, didn't my sister come back safely? The eldest cousin also went back to rest! This time we went smoothly unexpectedly, and the harvest was particularly great!"

Hearing this, Ji Min's brows relaxed a little.

Seeing that the sky was already bright, Ji Jun was not overly nervous and excited, so he wasn't very sleepy, so he simply chatted with Ji Min for a while, and when it was dawn, they had something to eat together, and then went to catch up on sleep.

Ji Yun suddenly remembered something, and asked Ji Min,

"Hey, how come there are two lakes in Chen Guogong's mansion?"

The aristocratic families in the capital, although some wealthy families do occupy relatively large courtyards, they usually just build a lake.It is rare that there are two lakes, one large and one small, like the Chen Guogong Mansion.

Even if there may be relatively large puddles in other places, they all fill up the puddles and expand the other lake.

It is said that in the cognition of Dazhou people, "water" represents "wealth"!
The lake water indicates that a place where wealth is gathered in a mansion is willing to "gather wealth in one place" rather than "divide wealth into two places".

"Wealth is divided into two places" means that the family is uneasy, and even the husband and wife are at odds, and brothers fight against each other.

In particular, this lake has no value for sightseeing and play, which is really strange.

Ji Min frowned and thought for a while, then said,

"I remember when I was young, I heard from my grandmother that the old Chen Guogong's mother is also the grandmother of the current Chen Guogong Chen Zhuoxin. When he was relatively old, he had a serious illness. After recovering from the illness, he was like a child. Especially He likes to play around, especially the water, and he loves fishing, and he has to catch big fish. Old Chen Guogong is very filial to his mother, so he can be regarded as entertaining relatives with colorful clothes! Old Chen Guogong often sends people to buy fish from the market, or They specially sent people to the larger rivers in the outskirts to catch larger fish and let them put them in the lake of Chen Guogong's mansion. The servants will accompany the old lady to fish."

Ji Yun thought, in his previous life, he read reports that some wealthy families rented out the entire theater, and the entire performance team only performed for one family.

Here, Chen Guogong gave the whole lake to his mother to play.

It seems that no matter what era, local tyrants can be willful!

But in this way, Chen Guogong's mansion will be full of fishy smell, and the fishy smell will be everywhere.

Over time, Mrs. Chen Guogong became a little dissatisfied.

Moreover, some noble ladies who came to Chen Guogong's mansion as guests also laughed at Chen Guogong's mansion, saying that it was like entering a fishing village.

Later, after Old Chen Guogong thought about it, he asked people to dig out another place, introduce water flow, build an artificial lake, and raise some fish for the old lady in it, and then his servants accompanied the old lady to spend time fishing here. .

Ji Yun thought for a while and said,
"It seems that old Chen Guogong is quite filial."

Ji Min nodded and said,

"Indeed! It is said that Old Chen Guogong is very kind to his mother. This old lady likes her eldest son Chen Jia very much. Chen Jia often accompanies the old lady to fish there. The grandfather and grandson are very close. But after Chen Jia left, The old lady fell ill and soon went with her grandson. Old Chen Guogong was very sad, and often went to the lake to mourn and remember his mother and son. Over time, the lake kept its original appearance. Even old Chen Guogong After leaving, the lake has not been taken care of too meticulously, so it has been preserved."

Ji Yun thought to himself, no wonder, even though it's just a mansion, when you get there, you feel very secluded and desolate.

Ji Jun asked again with some puzzlement,
"Who goes to that lake on weekdays?"

Anyway, they were invited to Chen Guogong's mansion for a banquet that day, but they never heard of anyone going there.

According to the arrangement of Chen Guogong's mansion, it is impossible to take guests there to play.

If they entered by mistake, those Jiaojiao ladies would have turned pale with fright and screamed again and again!Impossible not to know!
Ji Min shook his head, frowned slightly and said,
"Although this lake is also another landscape of Chen Guogong's mansion, no one else is allowed to step in. Even some embarrassing aunts and ladies in this mansion, or young masters are not allowed to go there to play and laugh wantonly. Noisy. It is said that I am worried about disturbing, the soul of the old lady."

Thinking of the bones found in the rockery last night, Ji Jun couldn't help thinking to himself, is he worried about disturbing the old lady, or there are other secrets that cannot be known?

According to Chen Guogong's influence, it should not be difficult to kill a lot of people secretly and destroy the corpses and traces.Why expose it in such a big way in the mansion?

Could it be that these exposed bones have other uses?
It can't be some kind of ceremony, can it?

Ji Yun thought of something for a moment, but he didn't catch it.

She thought about it and asked,
"You mean the old lady likes the eldest son Chen Jia very much?"

Ji Min nodded yes,
"It is said that Chen Jia is honest, honest, generous, generous, generous, and donates money. He has a good reputation in the circle of nobles in the capital. But I don't know about the others. You should ask your cousin."

"Miss!" Haitang saw that the two ladies were not sleepy, so she simply chatted with them, and if she was sleepy during the day, she would watch over them.

So Haitang said,
"I have heard some rumors about Duke Chen's mansion!"
