in the sound of swallows

Chapter 77

Jiang Shi was very curious, seeing Qing Huan's determined face, she hesitated for a long time before nodding in agreement, after all, she didn't ask her to do something, she just watched from the sidelines.

Since the death of the first young lady, the north courtyard has been haunted by ghosts. Many people in the house commented that the first young lady had an enmity with the fourth young lady, so they died to seek revenge.Someone saw Shen Guiya's ghost with his own eyes, and was so frightened that he fell ill for a few days.

The only person in the mansion who does not believe in evil is Madam Fourth Young Master. Bao Shan is terrified when she is by her side, but she is not afraid, and dares to throw stones at Bai Ying, which makes the concubines terrified.

"Miss..." Baoshan shivered under the blanket, only showing a pair of eyes to look at Shen Guiyan.Shen Guiyan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and while giving her the medicine in a bowl, she said, "Look at you, you didn't hurt her, and you didn't owe her, why are you afraid of doing this?"

Bao Shan was trembling, and whispered: "Isn't she the most annoying to us? I'm afraid she really came to seek our bad luck."

"Ghosts can't harm people for no reason, there is order in the underworld." Shen Guiyan watched her drink the medicine, then got up and said, "You have a good rest tonight, I will let the maid come to sleep with you."

"Then who will serve you?" Baoshan frowned.

Shen Guiyan waved her hand: "I have hands and feet, and I can settle myself properly, so you can just rest."

After saying that, he went out, asked the maid outside the door to come in, and went back to the main house by himself.

"Young madam, today the master said he won't be coming back, so you don't have to wait for him." Zhuiyun came in from the outside and said respectfully.

Shen Guiyan was taken aback, then looked at him sideways: "Where did he go?"

Zhuiyun showed distress, hesitated for a while before saying: "It is said to be talking with General Yuwen at night by candlelight."

Slightly absent-minded, Shen Guiyan lowered her eyes: "Okay, I see."

Zhuiyun glanced at her with some guilt, and then went to look for Baoshan.Girl Baoshan has been trembling recently, and he looks a little distressed.

After staring at the candlestick in a daze for a while, Shen Guiyan inexplicably thought of Han Jiangxue.With a chuckle, she also thought too much.

Turned off the lights, turned to go to bed and prepared to sleep, but the window slammed lightly.

Again.Shen Guiyan was already used to it, thinking that whether she would tell Madam Ming to find a Taoist priest tomorrow, she would always be able to sleep better.

But this time the sound seemed a little unusual, not just a light knock, but someone trying to open the window.

"Who?" Shen Guiyan called out.

The window stopped ringing, and it was quiet for a while, as if nothing had happened, as if the noise just now was just her illusion.Shen Guiyan looked at the window suspiciously, then continued to lie down and sleep.

As the night deepened, the windows began to rattle again. She was already half asleep, and turned over and didn't want to care about it.

There was something strange in the air, and then the window plug made a "click", as if it had been knocked open.Shen Guiyan opened her eyes suddenly, and immediately shrank into the bed, stuffed the pillow outside, and bulged up.

There was a thin cry, and Shen Guiyan listened intently, only to hear a half-male voice whispering: "My good sister, why are you forcing me to death?"

Shen Guiya?
Shen Guiyan frowned, and said helplessly: "You come here every day, are you tired?"

The voice paused, as if choked, and then continued: "My sister won't be reconciled if I don't get entangled until my sister loses all her yang energy."

"You want me to die?" Shen Guiyan asked in a muffled voice, "Just to scare me every night? But I'm not afraid at all, how can I die?"

The voice was a little closer to the bed, and said in a low voice: "My sister won't be scared to death, then my sister will come and see you off in person!"

After speaking, the voice clearly changed to a man's, and he rushed towards the side of the bed.

"Come on! Help!" Shen Guiyan yelled, and immediately took advantage of the black shadow falling on the pillow to throw over the quilt to cover him, then ran out of bed and opened the door: "Come on!"

She was dripping with cold sweat, those white shadows had never touched her before, so she wasn't afraid.Unexpectedly, this shadow dared to come up to commit murder tonight!
The people in the yard were woken up, and Shen Guiyan stood in the middle of the yard, staring at the door of the main house.

After Chasing Cloud came out, Jiang Shi, Qing Huan and another girl named Qing Luo also came out slowly, came up to support her and asked, "What's wrong Ma'am?"

Shen Guiyan pointed to the inside of the room: "There are assassins!"

Zhuiyun quickly ran into the house to have a look, but gasped.

"An assassin?" Qing Huan asked in a low voice.

Zhuiyun didn't answer, Jiang squeezed Shen Guiyan's hand nervously.Qing Huan was more courageous, and went straight up to look, but just as she stepped through the door, she yelled loudly.

"Ghost!"

Everyone was taken aback, Shen Guiyan frowned and followed.

There was no longer the dark shadow in the room, and the lamp was lit, but there were a few large characters written in blood on the ground:

eye for eye.

Shen Guiyan raised her eyebrows, the few people who were supporting her had already thrown her away quickly, their faces turned pale with fright, and they all backed away.

"I'll tell Madam!" Qing Huan turned around and ran away.

Shen Guiyan didn't have time to stop her, so she lowered her body to wipe some blood and smelled it, it didn't look like human blood, but judging by the color, it looked more like dog blood.

Ghost writing with dog's blood?Who are you kidding?
Obviously the people behind him, including Zhuiyun, were teased. Mrs. Gu was woken up in the middle of the night, got up and went to the Buddhist hall to kneel for half an hour, and ordered Qing Huan to invite the Taoist priests after dawn.

The old house was a bit unclean, and it was right to do legal things, Shen Guiyan didn't stop him.

But that bull-nosed old Taoist didn't know what was going on. After dancing in the yard for a long time, he ran to sprinkle salt water in the main house. I like Yang Qi the most, and it will naturally come to inhale it in the middle of the night."

"Then what should be done according to the immortal's opinion?" Mrs. Gu asked.

The old Taoist stroked his beard and said: "It's very simple. The yang in this room is strong and the yin is weak. Let the man retreat to the next room and stay for a few days. When the yin and yang are neutralized, there will be no more ghosts knocking on the door."

Jiang's eyes lit up, and she looked at Qing Huan in surprise.

Qing Huan lowered her head, with no flaws on her face.

Originally, this strategy was very good, if Shen Guiyan could be afraid of ghosts, it would be fine to scare her crazy or simply kill her.How did she know that this woman is not afraid of anything, she is so courageous that she dares to smash the soul of a wronged person.Helpless, I had no choice but to come up with this last resort.It's okay to take it step by step.

"Isn't this just another way to make the young master soak up the rain and dew?" Baoshan frowned and said, "It's the first time I heard such a saying from a Taoist priest. Those who didn't know thought he was not a Taoist priest, but an aunt in our yard!"

"Bao Shan." Shen Guiyan stopped her, Bao Shan stuck out her tongue, and didn't say anything more.

"It's always right to listen to the immortals." Mrs. Gu said with a straight face: "It's not unreasonable for you to be the only pet all the time. Since you are the main wife, you should have the generosity of the main wife. When Bei'er comes back, let him go In Jiang's house."

Shen Guiyan lowered her eyes: "Yan'er understands."

After the Taoist priest finished the ritual, the main house was covered with chicken feathers and dog blood, and he didn't even want to go in after seeing the treasure fan: "This is too ridiculous, how can you sleep?"

"It's safer that way." Jiang shi supported Shen Guiyan and said, "Madam can finally sleep peacefully now."

Shen Guiyan didn't say a word, but just nodded.

When Gu Chaobei came back from outside, he heard about the haunting, so he hurried to the main house.

"Master." Qing Huan stopped him halfway, and said with a smile: "The immortal said, you are too yang to go to the main house."

"Why?" Gu Chaobei stopped and looked at her curiously.

Qing Huan told the story again, and said again: "If you don't believe what the fairy said, don't go to the main house today. If you don't go and haunted, then that Taoist is lying. But if it is really because of The master's yang energy has harmed the young lady, then the master has to make an apology to the young lady."

Gu Chaobei glanced at her, and put his arms around her slender waist: "Master, has it hurt you less lately?"

Qing Huan's face flushed, and she pushed him quickly, with such a light force that she couldn't push him away at all: "Master also knows, the slaves are only masters and have forgotten about us. Aunt Jiang was crying in the room and her eyes were red." , let alone those of us who have no name or distinction."

"Yes, yes." Gu Chaobei picked her up and said with a playful smile, "Then I will take you to Mrs. Jiang's room for a sit."

Qing Huan let out a low cry, and hugged Gu Chaobei's neck tightly, with a flash of pride in his eyes.

She just knew that the Lord is actually very tempting, but Shen Guiyan has the upper hand and they are not easy to grab. Now that there is an excuse of being haunted, naturally they can't let him go if they snatch it.

Shen Guiyan was reading a book in the main room, while Bao Fan stood at the door, watching Gu Chaobei carry Qing Huan to Jiang's room, stomping his feet angrily, "I really don't understand what the young master is thinking! "

"What's wrong?" Shen Guiyan turned a page of the book and asked softly.

Bao Shan turned around and sat beside her bed and said: "Miss, you see, the young master obviously likes you the most, but he looks like a loafer with everyone, and he never refuses anyone who comes, isn't it afraid that you will be sad, miss? "

Shen Guiyan smiled slightly: "Aren't all men like this?"

Which man with three wives and four concubines treats every woman very well?
"But..." Bao Fan whispered dejectedly: "I thought the young master was different..."

Shen Guiyan bent her lips, yes, she also thought he was different.

According to what the Taoist said, Gu Chaobei really stayed in each house for a few days, and he no longer favored Shen Guiyan alone. Miraculously, the haunting that had been happening all along really disappeared.

"That fairy is really a god." Jiang said: "We must go and thank him."

Qing Huan stood beside her and said, "The most thankful thing is Madam, I am no longer disturbed by ghosts so that I cannot sleep peacefully."

Shen Guiyan smiled when she heard the words: "Yes, I have to prepare some sesame oil to thank you. Which Taoist temple is that Taoist?"

Qing Huan was stunned for a moment, thought for a while and said, "It's Baiyun Taoist Temple, it's a little far away, young lady choose a good time, let's go early."

The Baiyun Taoist Temple is indeed far away outside the city, Shen Guiyan nodded: "I see."
