A Guide to the Favorite Wife of the Royal Treasure Reborn

Chapter 559

"An accident happened in the capital? What happened?"

"It's not an accident, and it's a major event. You don't know that since the 28th year ago, it has been snowing in the capital, and it hasn't stopped for dozens of days. It is extremely rare, but there is no such thing in the surrounding areas. The situation, every day on the street you can see firefighters organizing professionals to clear the snow, but the clearing there is timely, the traffic is paralyzed, and it happens to be the Chinese New Year season, you don't know that the capital is called chaos, this It is not the worst, the worst is New Year's Eve, there were dozens of homicides in the whole night, the dead have two things in common, one is that they died at midnight In the corner of the city, the second is that all the dead have no heads.

Although the above-mentioned matter is trying to hide it, there are too many cases, and it is still going on. Every time at midnight, this kind of thing will happen, which makes people hard to guard against. Before I came to report, there have been enough There have been hundreds of cases. Before I came to report, a small group of people in the capital began to evacuate to other areas. Whether it was going back to their hometown or seeking refuge with relatives and friends, it was better than staying in the capital to make people feel safer. It’s just that the snow is still falling and they want to come out. It also takes a lot of effort, the car can't drive at all, and it's not as fast as those ordinary people on foot.

With such a large-scale natural disaster coupled with such a large-scale homicide, the whole city is in panic, and our family's situation is not much better. The heavy snow is unstoppable, there are not enough servants at all, my family members are all in battle, I am just giving a lecture in a journal, so I am ashamed to ask my family members for help. "

It is rare for Miss Qin to have a suspicious expression on her face. From this, it can be seen that she is not lying, but the truth is true, and the real situation may even be more serious than what she said.

"How could such a serious thing happen? If something really happened in the capital, why didn't we receive any news? You should know that the Internet and telephone are very convenient now, so there should be some news."

"A lot of communication equipment of Daxue Envoy is damaged, and there is no signal. What is the transmission? Moreover, this matter is too weird. In order to avoid causing greater panic, the higher-ups will definitely not let this information spread, whether it is TV or It is strictly forbidden to broadcast news in this area on the Internet, for fear of causing panic among ordinary people. Although a small group of people are running out now, there are still a large number of people staying in the capital. The spread will not be so fast, maybe they may hear that there are murders, but they will never know how many cases there are, and I can only get this information because of the convenience of my family."

Shen Wuyou sucked in a breath of air. He really didn't expect such a bad incident to happen in the capital. Thinking of Jiang Duxiu's going to the capital now, and thinking of the unknown 'murderer' for some reason, Shen Wuyou's heart ached. Unable to calm down, she pondered for a moment, then suddenly thought of something and asked Miss Qin, "Now, is it still snowing in the capital?"

"Yes, it's still under the sun. It's relatively smaller during the day, and when it's big at night, you can't even get out the door, and the plane can't take off. You don't know, I came by train, and the train is also difficult, but it can be cleaned manually. The most important thing is that the road conditions returned to normal after exiting the capital city, which is a blessing among misfortunes. However, there are not many trains, and the trains are full of people. I have brought so many things. I almost couldn't squeeze in, and missed the day of the report."

Although various incidents are happening in the capital, Miss Qin has not yet reached the point of worrying about it. Most of the ordinary residents who evacuated from the capital were hit by snowstorms, and their houses were damaged to varying degrees. A small number of people who can't live a normal life are due to homicides, so she believes that if the snow can stop, everyone will go back soon.

Shen Wuyou found it strange that the capital city has been the residence of the emperor since ancient times, and it has its own spirituality, even guarded by dragon veins, so that all evils cannot invade, and there is a practice management bureau in the formation, logically speaking, there should be no evil things It's right to dare to make trouble there, so what's going on now...

"Has the murderer of those murders not been found yet? Are there any clues or suspects?"

Huang Jing didn't know much about the world of practice. After listening to Miss Qin's words, she only focused on the murder case. She never thought that this snow was also unusual. She regarded it as a normal natural disaster, and only kept asking Qin about it. The details and progress of the young lady's murder case.

Miss Qin's focus was also on the murder case, and she excitedly said to Huang Jing, "Don't tell me, although the murderer has not been identified, but progress has been made, my uncle told me that it was Nian Beast."

"Zodiac?"

This word is very familiar, but seriously, I don't understand it at all. Huang Jing scratched her head, "Why does the Nian beast come out to eat people?"

"The Nian beast is a cannibal, you are so weak and ignorant, let me tell you a good story. It is said that in ancient times, every midnight at the end of the year, the Nian beast would attack the village. The villages occupied by the beasts suffered brutal massacres, and the horns on their heads were the slaughter weapons. After the massacre, the Nian beasts would eat everyone’s heads. In order to prevent people from feigning death or escaping by chance, the Nian beasts pretended to leave the village and folded Came back to massacre the survivors, and even caused the village to shake violently. Even babies and children were not spared."

"Then doesn't it have any weaknesses?" Huang Jing has never paid attention to these other than the sea god empress. This is the first time she has paid attention to other mythical species. She was shocked when she heard that the Nian beast was so ferocious. Miss Qin didn't do anything when she saw Huang Jing. I don't understand, how could I miss this opportunity for her to show off her knowledge, so she boasted, "How can there be no weaknesses, everything has weaknesses, and the Nian beast is naturally included.

It is said that in ancient times, there was a beast with four corners and four legs - Nian, who was short of food due to the heavy snow in winter and often went to the nearby villages to find food; a great disaster.At the end of the twelfth lunar month, people tidy up their clothes, help the old and the young, and go to the nearby bamboo forest to escape for the new year.

This year, people in the village met a child about seven or eight years old on the way to pack up and escape, and died of hunger by the roadside.A kind old lady rescued the child and asked the child to go up the mountain together to avoid the evil beast. In [-], the clever child and the old woman followed the villagers to the bamboo forest behind the village.Due to the severe cold in the bamboo forest in winter, everyone cut down bamboo to build houses and lit fires to keep warm.The child who was rescued by the old woman asked everyone curiously: "Our bamboo forest is so close to the village, isn't it afraid that the New Year will come here?"

An old man replied to him: "When I was young, I came here to escape with the villagers. In the years when the snow was heavy, I chased it because it was very hungry, but every time it saw the villagers here. After cutting bamboo in the bamboo forest, he left in a hurry. "The child thought about it and told everyone: "I have a way to get rid of 'Nian' so that everyone doesn't have to come out every twelfth lunar month to escape from disaster." Everyone was very happy after hearing this. I was happy, and asked what should I do?This clever boy told everyone: Cut more bamboo knots and take them with you, so that the whole village can go home tonight!Hang a piece of red cloth outside the door of each of your houses, and that’s enough, and the eve will never come again after dawn tomorrow.The villagers listened to the child's words with suspicion, and the old man in the village led them back to their homes.

It was getting dark soon, and the villagers were afraid that "Nian" would come and no one dared to sleep. Apart from hanging red cloth strips outside their own doors, they came to the open space in the middle of the village and guarded some bamboo trees brought back from the bamboo forest. Some broken bamboo knots.The weather was cold and everyone lit a fire to keep warm, and brought out some food when they were hungry... In the middle of the night, they heard a loud roar that shook the sky, and everyone huddled together in fear.At this time, the clever child suddenly stood up and told everyone, "I'll go and attract him, and then everyone will throw the broken bamboo festivals that we have guarded all night into the fire."

Before the kind old woman reached out to grab her, the child had already arrived at the entrance of the village. The child saw that Nian was rushing into the village and destroyed a lot of things, so he yelled loudly: "You come every year, so that the people can't afford it." Live and work in peace and contentment, today I must give you some power!"

When "Nian" heard the child's cry, he chased after the sound, but he didn't dare to enter when he saw the red cloth strips hanging on the walls of every house, so he followed the child's voice and endured the hungry belly to come To the open space in the middle of the village here.At this time, the child said loudly: "Folks, throw broken bamboo knots into the fire!", but everyone was already standing there because they were afraid. At this moment, "Nian" picked up the child heavily with his horns. dropped to the ground.The villagers reacted to the sound of the child falling to the ground, and threw bamboo knots into the fire one after another.Since it was felled not long ago, the wet bamboo joints burst and crackled when they encountered a high fire! "Nian" turned around and ran away when he heard the sound, and did not damage anything in the village.

At dawn, "Nian" was scared away by the sound of cracking bamboo joints thrown into the fire. The resident's house was saved because the red strip hanging in front of the door said that Nian had not entered. Although the child was seriously injured, But he had an amazing healing ability, and he came back to life on the verge of death. People were overjoyed. Later, people realized that the child was the reincarnation of the gods in the sky.And this day is the first day of the first month.

Because "Nian" is not dead, so every year in the twelfth lunar month, everyone waits at the broken bamboo festival to get rid of this monster at night, and New Year's Eve comes from this.But year after year has passed, and no one has seen "Nian" again. There are only firecrackers set off by everyone to prevent the coming of "Nian" and red cloth strips hanging in front of the door, but they have left us this legend and the New Year. A traditional custom: On the night of the twelfth lunar month, everyone gathers together to have a New Year's Eve dinner, watch the year together and wait for the bell to ring on New Year's Eve.Set off firecrackers and post door couplets.Wait until dawn to visit each other's neighbors to give greetings and blessings.On the morning of the first day of the new year, the villagers visited each other to see if the neighbors were injured and said some auspicious and polite words, hoping that the twelfth lunar month of the coming year would never come again. "

After listening to Miss Qin, Huang Jing felt that she had gained a lot of knowledge, but she still didn't understand, "Oh, this is wrong, if Nian Beast is really afraid of firecrackers and red things, then why is it that the capital city is so afraid of firecrackers and red things?" Will something happen during the Chinese New Year?"

Miss Qin's face turned red immediately. Don't look at Huang Jing's question so dumb, but she really got to the point. If she was asked to answer, she really didn't have an answer, so she could only say bluntly, "What about me? I know, anyway, my uncle said it was the Nian Beast, so it must be the Nian Beast."

At this time, Shen Wuyou suddenly asked Miss Qin, "Who is your uncle?"

"My uncle is now in the research institute of the Administration, so the information he got must be first-hand. His name is Qin Tao!"

"Qin Tao..."

Shen Wuyou nodded, old acquaintance, most of the equipment on her body was robbed from the other party, she dared to say that she was definitely on Qin Tao's blacklist, but she didn't expect that Qin Shou was actually Qin Tao's blacklist. The young lady's uncle just didn't know if he was relative, thinking so in his heart, Shen Wuyou asked.

After hearing the words, Miss Qin explained, "Although they are not relatives, the relationship is not far away. They are all in the same line. My father and uncle are uncles and cousins, and they are relatives."

"Oh, if that's the case, then the news may really be true."

Qin Tao stands in an important position in the administration, and the news he got from him cannot be false. Shen Wuyou still believes in this very much, so facing Huang Jing's doubts, he helped Miss Qin to affirm the truth. a handful.

However, the question raised by Huang Jing is also a key point. Although many legends are unreliable, they are not unfounded. They appear frequently this year, which is obviously abnormal. The most important thing is, are all the people in the capital dead?

So many aristocratic families in the practice world are almost all concentrated there. Don't they know how to do their part to arrest the 'murderer' who caused chaos in the dark? I don't believe that so many of them really blame the murderer. There is no way, no matter how I think about it, I don’t think it’s right. Looking at the sky, Jiang Duxiu must have already arrived at the management office by this time, and he should have some understanding of the affairs there. Shen Wuyou decided to ask the Lord directly. I don't believe that Jiang Duxiu, the dark person in charge of the administration, would not know the truth of the matter.

But what she didn't expect was that Jiang Duxiu's call came just after she got the phone and before she dialed it out, she blinked her eyes, although she was a little puzzled in her heart, she pressed the connection directly with her finger one step earlier, Soon Jiang Duxiu's voice broke into her ears, "Wuyou, if you have nothing to do, come to the capital, we need you here."

Shen Wuyou was startled: "...What's going on? Nian Beast is really so difficult to deal with, even you can't do anything about it?"

Although she is very concerned about the affairs of the capital, Shen Wuyou, like Miss Qin, felt that there was a tall man above them who could not use them. As a result, in the blink of an eye, she got the opposite news, so it is strange if it is not unexpected. That.

"...It seems that you already know some of the facts."

"One part? Another part?"

"It's the Snow Maiden!"
