Chapter 297 Haunted

As soon as Qin Xiao came out of the palace gate, he saw his bodyguard Jiang Tao guarding beside the Wuzhima, and he was shocked.Knowing that Haitang died unexpectedly, Jin Xi asked him to go back immediately, Qin Xiao jumped on his horse and ran towards Changping uncle's mansion without saying a word.

No one knew more about the shady scenes in the Changping uncle's mansion than he did. Without any evidence, he could conclude that Haitang was killed by someone.At this moment, Qin Xiao's heart is full of self-blame, he shouldn't leave Xi'er alone in the tiger's den.

Fortunately, Xi'er was clever, if something happened to Xi'er, wouldn't he regret it to death.

Although it was already dusk, small businesses and hawkers closed their stalls, and there were not many pedestrians on the street.But he galloped wildly, and made all the fuss along the way, even he himself didn't know, how could he come back in less than a stick of incense for the journey that usually takes three quarters of an hour at the fastest?
When he arrived at Changping uncle's mansion, Qin Xiao jumped off his horse and rushed in.Seeing his posture, the gatekeeper was startled, thinking that the mansion was on fire!No, even if the mansion is on fire, Shizi would move a chair and sit by the door to watch the excitement, and he would not rush in so eagerly.

Jin Xi was sitting at the table, writing down what happened today in detail.While taking notes, sort out the doubts and abnormalities in my heart.

Seeing Qin Xiao rushing in with sweat profusely, her clothes were soaked, she was startled, and hurriedly stood up to meet her, "Are you alright?"

Unexpectedly, Qin Xiao opened his mouth to say the same thing, the two of them spoke in unison, and suddenly they both laughed after asking.Can still care about each other, obviously all right.

Jin Xi hurriedly wiped his sweat with a cloth towel, and then ordered his servants to boil hot water, "How did Jiang Tao spread the word? Look at your sweaty body, what should you do if you catch a cold?"

"How can I be so useless!" Qin Xiao curled his lips, although he didn't like Jinxi's coaxing tone, he sat there without moving.With his eyes slightly closed, even though Jin Xi helped him wipe the sweat off his brow, there was still some enjoyment in his expression.

After wiping off Qin Xiao's sweat, Jin Xi poured him another cup of tea, and then said, "I think Haitang was killed by someone!"

"Don't worry, I will definitely avenge you!" Qin Xiao took the tea and drank it with his neck up, then put down the tea bowl and went out.

The green-glazed orchid tea bowl with gentleman pattern was not stacked firmly, and fell to the ground along the edge of the table, and there was a crisp 'bang' sound, which scared Jin Xi into a spirit.Looking at the broken porcelain pieces all over the floor, I had a bad premonition for no reason.

She grabbed Qin Xiao's sleeve, "What are you doing?"

"I'm going to take a look at Haitang's corpse!" Qin Xiao knew what she was worried about, so he patted the back of her hand lightly and comforted him, "Don't worry, I'll be fine!"

That's right, Qin Xiao is not a vegetarian, and he is in the house, so nothing will happen to him!Jin Xi let go of his hand hesitantly, looked at Qin Xiao's back and comforted himself.Even though she thought so, she was still in a panic, always feeling that something was about to happen.

Qin Xiao didn't lie to Jin Xi, he went out of Hebei Hall and went to see Haitang's dead body.Zhou Qingniu was standing by the door, when he saw Qin Xiao approaching, he immediately went up to meet him, "My lord, there is something strange about this..."

Qin Xiao frowned, "What's wrong?"

"Haitang learned that Mrs. Uncle went to the back garden to pick flowers every day before dawn, so she went to the back garden. The woman guarding the garden also said that she heard a man's footsteps, but the villain just checked, and the uncle didn't leave last night. In the mansion. Look..." Zhou Qingniu lowered his voice as he spoke, subconsciously raised his eyes to see Qin Xiao's expression.

Anyway, Mrs. Changping is also Qin Xiao's adoptive mother, what he said is a bit poignant!

"It's not what you think!" Of course, Qin Xiao heard the meaning behind Zhou Qingniu's words, sneered and shook his head in denial.In the seemingly empty and deserted Changping House, there are countless dark eyes.Even if Mrs. Chang Ping had the heart, she didn't have the guts.There is no chance!

Zhou Qingniu scratched his head, not daring to continue.Shi Ziye said no, definitely not.What is he thinking here?
Qin Xiao didn't explain to him too much, and carefully checked the seal on the door, it was intact, it seems that since Jinxi sealed it, no one has touched it again.He tore off the seal and pushed the door open.Zhou Qingniu stretched his neck, glanced over his shoulder, and suddenly exclaimed, "Haitang is gone?"

His voice was so loud that several women guarding the garden in the distance could hear it.It happened that a gust of autumn wind blew by at this time, and in the gradually dark night, the half-withered leaves of the sycamore tree were blown by the wind and rattled.Several people were horrified, screamed 'haunted' and ran out regardless of their lives.

"What are you yelling about?" Qin Xiao kicked Zhou Qingniu's butt angrily.

Zhou Qingniu's face turned pale, he rubbed his eyes twice and looked inside again, "Shi... Shizi... Haitang's corpse... really... really disappeared."

"I'm not blind!" Qin Xiao roared viciously. Although the empty room was dark, his eyesight was extraordinary.

It was clear earlier that the two long tables in the middle of the room where Haitang's corpse was temporarily placed were empty, let alone a corpse, not even a single hair.

"This... this..." Zhou Qingniu stammered immediately.He was ordered to stay outside, and he did not leave a single step from the beginning to the end. It is impossible for someone to steal Haitang's body under his nose.Then there is only one possibility...

Thinking of that possibility, Zhou Qingniu shivered involuntarily, and posted a sticker in front of Qin Xiao.

Qin Xiao just turned around and was almost hit by him.Qin Xiao was angry and hated at once, the big men who are as strong as bears are afraid of ghosts?He actually has such an idiot under his command?
Although he is angry, he can understand that Zhou Qingniu was born as a water thief, and ghosts and gods are the most taboo of people in the water.It is human nature for him to be afraid of ghosts!

Qin Xiao originally wanted to say that there are no ghosts in the world, and he was just trying to scare himself, but when the words came to his mouth, he suddenly changed his tone, "You didn't feel sorry for Haitang, even if she was a ghost, she wouldn't seek your life!"

Only then did Zhou Qingniu heave a sigh of relief. In fact, he also knew that there were no ghosts in the world, but he had been obsessed with it since he was a child, and he had heard too many ghost stories. It was inevitable that when something strange happened, he would think about it.

But no matter what, the disappearance of Haitang's body was a major event in itself.Zhou Qingniu was afraid that Jinxi would blame him, so he quickly took out the fire pocket from his pocket, and went into the room to check around.

The seals of the doors and windows are intact, since it didn't come out through the doors and windows, then there is a secret passage in the house!
Zhou Qingniu rummaged around, and sure enough, he found a secret door in the corner of the wall, and after pushing it open, a dark hole was revealed.

Without saying a word, he was about to go in, but Qin Xiao grabbed him from behind.

Zhou Qingniu looked back suspiciously, "The thief must have stolen Haitang's body from here!"

"I know!" Qin Xiao suddenly smiled strangely, "Do you want to find out the real culprit?"

Do you need to ask?
Zhou Qingniu nodded immediately, Haitang is Qingxing's good sister, and Qingxing's tears have never been shed since something happened to her.Just to keep Qing Xing from being sad, he also wanted to find out who killed Hai Tang.

Qin Xiao patted him on the shoulder, "That's good! Set fire to the house!"
