Chapter [-] Pink Skull

Chen Mengsheng strolled out of the guest room, but the sound of the pipa and singing stopped abruptly.When Chen Mengsheng re-entered the timing, the melody of Yiyi Yaya and the sound of the pipa came like a tide again, and repeated three or four times. Chen Mengsheng was irritated by the singer.Standing up and flying away from the window, the sound of the pipa can be clearly heard from the garden in the northwest corner of Su's house amidst the sound of rain.Chen Mengsheng became curious. Someone was playing the pipa in the middle of the night?Who has such a great leisure and elegance?

After a few flashes, Chen Mengsheng arrived in front of a two-story embroidery building in the northwest corner of the garden, but the embroidery building was locked by a general, which made Chen Mengsheng even more strange.Why did you lock the door when someone was singing and playing the pipa inside? What kind of rule is this?Now that he was here, he wanted to figure this out. Chen Mengsheng twisted his body and got up from the ground, jumped over the wall and entered the other courtyard of Xiulou...

The other courtyard was cleaned very clean, and a few willows were sparsely planted like monsters with teeth and claws in the wind and rain.Going further is a narrow path paved with cobblestones. After walking along the path, it didn't take long to reach the gate of Xiulou.Chen Mengsheng opened his eyes and looked at the embroidered building carefully. In the dark night, he saw a woman in green clothes standing at the window of the embroidered building with a blank expression.Seeing that she is only fifteen or sixteen years old, her long hair is blown by the wind and her eyes are blurred, so she faces north and looks far away...

Just as Chen Mengsheng was about to fly up, the woman suddenly disappeared from the window.Chen Mengsheng tiptoed to the window and leaned over to look into the embroidery room, and saw a woman in red veil with her back playing and singing the pipa, but the woman in green was not in the room.Chen Mengsheng coughed lightly on purpose, the singing of the woman's soul in Huansha suddenly stopped, and the pipa made a buzzing sound of broken strings...

"Bold ghost, who are you? Why do you want to hang around here after death? What are your intentions?" Chen Mengsheng was not sure what the connection between the female ghost in the room and the Su family was, and he said that the girl he saw just now was the same. The effort is gone in a blink of an eye.It seems that this female ghost is not an ordinary lonely ghost, so she restrained her temper before asking.

The female ghost didn't turn around but asked instead: "Who are you? You are not from the Su family, what are you doing here? Are you a Taoist priest invited by the Su family? You go, I don't want to kill you!"

Hey, Chen Mengsheng thought to himself: "What do you call this? Have I become the one you pity and don't kill? I have never seen a ghost as arrogant as you. Don't blame me for treating you if you don't act honestly." You're welcome!" Chen Mengsheng was depressed, he had never seen any kind of evil ghost before, and he never expected to meet such an arrogant female ghost today.

"Hahaha, all men in the world deserve to die. If you refuse to listen to your persuasion, go to hell!"

The female ghost turned her head sharply and took Chen Mengsheng outside the window back a big step in shock. Under the female ghost's long hair was a bloody skull, flesh and bones were glued together, and her whole face was slanted on her shoulders.Opening his mouth wide, he spit out a black corpse breath at Chen Mengsheng.Chen Mengsheng hurriedly dodged, and the corpse's breath passed by Chen Mengsheng's face.When Chen Mengsheng jumped into the embroidery building but didn't see the female ghost, it was rare for a soul to slip away under his nose.Obviously, someone often comes to tidy up the embroidered building. The ivory-white embroidered bed is covered with a pink silk quilt, and the bed rest is spotless after touching it with hands.Chen Mengsheng was walking around in the embroidery building strangely, and he didn't think there was anything wrong when he looked around.The boudoir of the girl’s house has everything from rouge and gouache to needles and threads. On the spring stool is a picture of hundreds of flowers that has not yet been embroidered. Pick up the embroidery board and take a closer look. The embroidery needles are already stained with rust. No one has touched this picture for half a year.

In the center of the embroidery building, where the ghost played the pipa just now, there was no trace of the pipa falling. Chen Mengsheng looked at it on the ground and couldn't help being very surprised. If it was just the ghost, it would be understandable.Gods have gods, ghosts have ghosts, if the skeleton female ghost just took advantage of the chaos and escaped, it would be fine, but there is another girl who disappeared together, this is unreasonable, right?After searching upstairs and downstairs, Chen Mengsheng suddenly felt chills. The door of the embroidery building was closed, and only the window through which Chen Mengsheng entered the room was open.It was windy and rainy outside the house. If someone came in and out, it would inevitably leave some footprints and mud prints, but Chen Mengsheng kept finding nothing when the sky was twilight...

Back in the guest room, Xiang Xiaotian, Shangguan Yanran and Qi Ying had already gotten up, seeing Chen Mengsheng's drenched face, they were puzzled and didn't know what happened.Xiang Xiaotian walked up to Chen Mengsheng, waving his hands over his eyelids a few times and asked, "Brother, why did you go all night? Look at your unlucky face, could it be that you really went to see Mrs. Wen?" ?”

Qi Ying spat: "You don't come here to make trouble, Brother Chen must have encountered something difficult again?"

"Mengsheng, what's the matter with you? My eldest brother found you missing before dawn, and everyone was in a hurry. We have already asked the maid in the guest room to call Su Zhongfan!" Shangguan Yanran said anxiously.

Chen Mengsheng looked up at the three people in the room, and sighed: "Last night, did you hear someone playing a pipa and singing?"

Shangguan Yanran said disapprovingly: "Of course I heard it, isn't that Mrs. Wen can sing well? Wasn't the pipa piece that she played last night the "Yulin Bell" by Liu Sanbian."

Xiang Xiaotian looked at the heavy rain outside the house and asked, "What's raining? Whose is it?"

Shangguan Yanran glared at Xiang Xiaotian and said viciously: "Is it alright to shower you, such a good word and phrase let you be buried alive!"

Chen Mengsheng patted the table and said, "Yanran, so you know what that pipa is singing. This matter is no small matter. Can you sing, Yanran?"

"I... I... I heard the senior sisters sing in the Danding School, but I learned it secretly, because most of those songs are sung by women in brothels. Dad will scold him when he hears it. Since Mengsheng If you want me to sing, I will sing for you."

Shangguan Yanran cleared her throat, and sang softly: "The chilling cicadas are miserable. It's late at the Changting Pavilion, and the rain has just stopped. The tents in the capital have nothing to drink, and they are nostalgic for the boat. He held his hands and looked at his tearful eyes, but he was speechless. Misty waves, twilight is deep and the sky is wide. Amorous feelings have hurt parting since ancient times, and it is even more desolate for the Qingqiu Festival. Where is the drunkenness tonight? The willow bank is dawning and the moon is waning. After many years, it should be a good time for a good time. Even if there are thousands of styles, Who else should I talk to?" Shangguan Yanran sang sadly and tenderly, and Chen Mengsheng couldn't help being stunned when he heard it...

"Yes, that's the song. That's the song that the skeleton female ghost sang last night..." Chen Mengsheng suddenly realized.

"Ah..., female skeleton ghost... what kind of female skeleton ghost..." Shangguan Yanran's face paled in shock.

Xiang Xiaotian also responded: "Brother, what did you see?"

"Don't be afraid of Yan Ran. I heard someone singing "Yu Lin Ling" in the garden in the northwest corner last night. I went out out of good intentions to see who was playing the pipa in the middle of the night. Unexpectedly, when I got there, it was locked with iron locks. It made me even more surprised when I went over the wall and found an embroidery building. At the window of the embroidery building, I saw a girl in Tsing Yi flashing away, and when I flew up to the window, I saw a skeleton female ghost with long hair inside..."

"Ah...Mengsheng, stop talking, I'm afraid...Let's get out of here quickly..." The two girls, Shangguan Yanran and Qi Ying, were so frightened that their faces turned pale. At this juncture, the servant girl led Su Zhongfan forward into the guest room.

When Su Zhongfan saw Chen Mengsheng, he laughed and said, "I thought something serious happened. Isn't Brother Chen here well? It's all because the servants can't speak, and they came to report that you were missing before dawn. Hahaha ..."

Chen Mengsheng said seriously: "Uncle Su, who is that girl in Tsing Yi in the garden in the northwest corner?"

"What?" Su Zhongfan rolled his eyes when he heard Chen Mengsheng's head-to-head question, and passed out on the spot.The two little maids were frightened, and ran out of the guest room yelling.

Xiang Xiaotian and Chen Mengsheng quickly lifted Su Zhongfan up and placed him on the bed.Xiang Xiaotian wondered, "What's going on here? Mr. Su, you passed out after just one sentence?"

Chen Mengsheng waved his hands and said, "It's Mr. Su who is in a hurry, so it's okay." Chen Mengsheng took the orchid formula in his hand, and poured pure Buddhist and Taoist energy from the Baihui acupoint on Su Zhongfan's head.Su Zhongfan gradually woke up, grabbed Chen Mengsheng's hand and was so excited that he couldn't speak.

"Uncle Su, if you have something to say, speak slowly, drink your saliva first." Shangguan Yanran poured a cup of tea and put it on the bedside.

Su Zhongfan shook his head repeatedly and stammered, "Chen...Brother Chen...you really...are in the garden...and saw a girl in Tsing Yi...Tsing Yi?"

Xiang Xiaotian said embarrassingly: "This old man is really crazy. If my brother didn't see it, he wouldn't ask you for no reason. Why don't you find him a doctor to take a look."

Qi Ying slapped the back of Xiang Xiaotian's hand and said, "Don't interrupt, listen to Brother Chen."

Chen Mengsheng nodded and said to Su Zhongfan: "Yes, I did see a girl in Tsing Yi, about fifteen or sixteen years old."

"Ah, that's my little girl Su Zhaoqing. She usually likes to wear a Tsing Yi. Where is she now? Brother Chen, hurry up, take me to see her." Su Zhongfan turned over from the bed and crawled. to go out.

Chen Mengsheng shouted: "Uncle Su, there is something strange about this matter. I don't know where your daughter is now?" Chen Mengsheng told Su Zhongfan everything about hearing the song and entering the Xiulou, and Su Zhongfan cried after hearing it. old tears...

"My miserable Qing'er, what's wrong with you? Mom and Dad are by your side, but they can't see you anymore. Do you know that every day, Dad will ask someone to clean the embroidery building for you? Thinking that one day you will come back..."

Chen Mengsheng persuaded: "Uncle Su, if you want to kill your daughter, you should tell us what happened in the Su manor? Who is that skeleton female ghost? It will be useless if you cry again, if you don't get rid of that female ghost Clearly, if I want to save your daughter, I will not be able to use my strength."

When Su Zhongfan heard that Chen Mengsheng was able to save his daughter, he immediately stopped crying and said, "Our Su family has lived in Anqing Mansion for decades, and we have never harmed anyone. I don't know about the skeleton female ghost you are talking about." Who is it?" Su Zhongfan's words did not seem to be lying.

Chen Mengsheng breathed a sigh of relief: "Then Uncle Su, when did your daughter have an accident? If you tell the whole story of the matter truthfully, maybe I can think of a way..."
