the first lady

Chapter 121

"Ling'er, I'm not that pedantic about how to treat someone." Zong Zhengyi said with a smile.

"But you let Qingye and Yueying do it, it really doesn't look like your style." Qiao Ling'er said seriously, and suddenly frowned again, "Could it be because I don't know you well enough?"

"You want to get to know me, there will be plenty of time in the future." Zong Zhengyi whispered in her ear.

The back of Qiao Linger's ears turned red, and she pushed him slightly, "There are still people here!"

As a result, when they looked at Qingye Yueying and Lanfeng chasing their lives, the four of them simply turned their faces away and didn't look at them at all. Maybe this was Zong Zhengyi's order at the beginning—do not look at evil!
Thinking of "see no evil", Qiao Ling'er felt a little embarrassed. Zong Zhengyi's gentle face always made people's heart flutter inadvertently, but it made her more embarrassed, even though she liked him with that personality.

But she didn't spend too long in embarrassment. After walking for a while, she suddenly noticed the gaze from behind, stood still and turned around, but only saw the empty street.

"What's wrong?" Zong Zhengyi followed her gaze and asked.

Qiao Linger frowned, "I don't know what's going on, I always feel like someone is peeping, but I can't see anyone." After a pause, he said: "Maybe I'm too sensitive, let's go!"

Zong Zhengyi's expression was flat, and he couldn't tell what he was thinking, but walked with her to the depths of Ouyang Town.

Qingye and Yueying looked at each other, but finally said nothing.

On a remote roof, a person dressed in white is like the wind, flashing past, as fast as green smoke, leaving only a faint smell in the air.

Most of the people in Diyang Town have been dispersed, leaving only a few women and children to guard their homes, and this is where the plague broke out.

"Miss, uncle, eat this pill." Lan Feng handed over two black pills when Zong Zhengyi was about to enter a courtyard, "The taste here is similar to the plague, but it is not a plague. "

Qiao Ling'er and Zongzheng Yi didn't refuse after hearing what Lanfeng said, Lanfeng would not harm them, especially the sentence "It's similar to the plague, but it's not the plague" made people feel confident.

The small siheyuan is somewhat similar to the siheyuan in Beijing. It is made of gray bricks, simple but with a unique style.

"Knock, kow..." Aoba stepped forward, and knocked the door lock that was wide open, making a dull and clumsy sound.

In the yard, an old lady with gray hair who was sweeping the ground bent her body and turned her head slowly after hearing the sound.

"Who are you?" asked the old lady, about six or seventy years old, when she saw Qiao Ling'er and Lan Feng when she walked in, she immediately looked terrified: "Girl, how can you walk on the street? Hurry up, go home, if those cannibals see you, you won't be able to leave!"

From the old lady's tone, her panic and worry could be clearly heard, and the urging voice was narrating her sadness.

Qiao Ling'er held the old hands that were about to drive her away, and said with a slight smile, "Mother-in-law, I'm already married, and this is my husband-in-law." As he spoke, he also introduced Zong Zheng next to him. Yi.

"Hi, mother-in-law." Zong Zhengyi greeted politely.

"I'm married, it's good to be married, it's good to be married." The old lady patted Qiao Ling'er's hand, and the smile on her face was so sad, "Are you from the town? "

"No mother-in-law, we..."

"Mother-in-law, we are here to see relatives, but in the town..." Zong Zhengyi continued Qiao Linger's words without giving her any hints.

"Alas, a group of evil spirits came to the town, a group of evil spirits that eat people!" The old lady resented, and then asked: "Have you not found your relatives?"

Qiao Ling'er nodded, "Yes, mother-in-law, we traveled many places, but we couldn't find it."

"Come on, let's sit in the house first!" The old lady welcomed them into the house, "There was a plague in the town, many people died, some of them died, and some of them left, only us are left The old woman and the group of evil spirits..."

After hearing what the old lady said, Qiao Ling'er and Zong Zhengyi looked at each other. Needless to say, those evil spirits were naturally a group like Zhao Tianshi.

The house was not very simple, there were chairs in the yard, and the group of them sat on the chairs in the yard and basked in the sun.

"Mother-in-law, don't pour tea." Qiao Ling'er saw that the old lady took the teapot out of the house to boil water and pour tea, so she immediately stopped her.

Lan Feng also stepped forward and said, "Grandma, you just sit down, and I'll boil water and make tea for you."

"Then, that's going to embarrass the girl." The old lady sat down on a stool with a sigh.

"Grandma, did you hear that there was a plague in the city when we came from the city?" Zong Zhengyi asked straightforwardly.

The old lady nodded, "Yes, a plague happened in our small town, and many people died. My husband, son, and daughter-in-law all died, and I am the only old woman left..."

"Mother-in-law, don't be sad, people can't be resurrected after death..." Qiao Ling'er comforted her, but she felt like an idiot to comfort her like this.

Qing Ye stepped forward and asked, "Mother-in-law, don't you have any grandchildren?"

grandchildren?

"I have a granddaughter, but she was killed by those evil spirits..." The old lady's expression suddenly changed, and her voice also changed, full of deep hatred, tears streaming down her face .Even an old man, at this time, has the hatred to crush people to ashes.

Under the old lady's narration, Qiao Ling'er and Zong Zhengyi realized that the old lady's granddaughter was one of the girls who were sacrificed back then.The government took action, and a group of people forcibly took away the old lady's 14-year-old granddaughter without any explanation.And most of the people also use this method to take it by force, just because Zhao Tianshi "casts a spell" to cure the people who have spread the plague outside.

Declining the old lady's request to keep them for dinner, they continued walking to another place.As for this place, it is daunting - Yizhuang.

"Ling'er, are you waiting for me outside?" Zong Zhengyi asked.

"No, I'll go in with you." Qiao Ling'er resolutely vetoed it. Although he knew that he was worried that she would be afraid of seeing him inside, but let her stay outside, she would rather go with him, at worst she would close her eyes.

Zong Zhengyi knew her character, she didn't want to stay outside, so he had to let her in together.

Walking into the slightly dilapidated place, the air is filled with unpleasant paint and a disgusting smell, and the wind is blowing, which is worthy of Yizhuang.

Inside the Yizhuang, there are some coffins, some are painted black coffins, and some are made of original wood that has never had time to paint.Those who died from the plague did not have time to make coffins.

Later, it was discovered that it was a "plague", and the more people were infected, all the corpses were cremated. The nearly thirty coffins here were all from the previous ones.

"Moon Shadow." Zong Zhengyi called out.

Moon Shadow nodded knowingly, and quickly searched the coffin of the corpse sent over the approximate time of the plague, and stood in front of the coffin together with Aoba.

"Aren't you going to..." Qiao Ling'er's words stuck in her throat. Although she knew what their intentions were, it was unbearable to do it so suddenly.

"Miss, don't look." Lan Feng lit the candle to the side, and said worriedly.

"...No, you guys misunderstood, I'm not afraid of seeing corpses." Qiao Ling'er suddenly realized what they were worried about, "I just don't like the smell." She has seen corpses before. You won't feel horrible anymore, people's potential is infinitely developed.

But I really don't like the smell of corpses!

This time, Zongzheng Yi took out a small pill from his arms and handed it to her. Before she could ask, he said, "If you take it, you won't be able to smell it for a while."

"Is there such a good thing?" Qiao Ling'er's eyes sparkled when she heard it, and she took it and was about to eat it, but when she saw the coffin, she had to turn in a different direction, the target direction - Zong Zhengyi's arms .

Quickly swallowed the small pill, tested it a bit, his nose was a bit blocked, as if he really couldn't smell anything.

Zong Zhengyi looked at her really cute, then looked at Qingye and the other two and said, "Open it!" while hugging Qiao Linger to his side.

Qiao Ling'er was a little curious about Zong Zhengyi's movements, she had already said that she was not afraid of corpses, why did she have such intimate movements?

I thought so, but then she knew why...

The lid of the coffin was opened, and it was covered with a layer of disgusting dust, with the smell of rotting corpses. Of course, this is not the main reason why people want to look away.

The real reason why people want to look away is the disgusting maggots crawling on the corpse, and the corpse water seems to be extremely corrosive, sliding to the side along with the flesh.

A feeling of nausea surged into my heart again, and it was even more disgusting than seeing Shi Jinyuan do that kind of thing to the corpse before.

The next moment, her gaze shifted to another direction, and Zong Zhengyi quickly moved her body over, letting her face stick to his arms.

In such a scene, even Lan Feng, who was already mentally prepared, and the well-informed Qingye, Yueying, Zhuiming and others would still feel disgusted, let alone Qiao Linger, who rarely touched dead bodies?

Zong Zhengyi also regretted a little, he shouldn't have let her see it at all, but he really didn't expect such a disgusting scene under the coffin lid.

"Uncle, leave this place to us, you go out with your wife first." Lan Feng glanced at the things in the coffin, and then said to Zong Zhengyi.
