Chapter 482: The Dead Body in Aang
Xiao Man said: "Cheng Feng, I think it must be your grandfather." ”
"He? Hum...... I wish I had died sooner, right? Forget it, let's not talk about that, you guys go back first. I'll take care of that here. "Chang Xiaoman was frightened by the Nine Lives Cat just now.
"I'm fine, I'm not at ease when you're alone."
He Qiumin asked, what are you two doing in the middle of the night without sleeping and running to someone's backyard?
"Don't mention it, this is the first time I've been 'forced' to do something bad, and this time it's really bad. This kind of deed, don't get involved, I tell you, I don't have the bottom myself, the first time I do this kind of thing, maybe I've overplayed, and all the living people in the entire Qiaojiazhuang will have bad luck for a while. Ma Chengfeng said embarrassedly.
The two 'girl' children are good friends, and they usually chatter endlessly when they get together, and there are always endless topics to talk about when they meet in a foreign land, Ma Chengfeng is actually polite, but he didn't expect the two of them to leave with sunspot bricks on their shoulders......
"Huh? Can you leave the sunspot for me? I...... I'm afraid ......"
After tossing for so long, the man in white dragged the plate just now and didn't know where to go. Ma Chengfeng was like a headless fly, holding the corpse of a dead cat in his arms. As for how to use the corpse of this dead cat, let's take a look at it slowly. Actually, this is a carpenter's 'door' evil art, which we have introduced before.
Qiaojiazhuang is too big, although it is not as good as the Forbidden City, but there are a large courtyard with five entrances and five exits inside and outside, and these five in and five out are not infernal rooms. Rather, there are five large courtyards, each of which is individually configured. It has its own mailroom, its own parking lot, and a separate two-story building and a circle building where people live.
What's more, almost all of the five sets of courtyards are exactly the same, and it is impossible to tell where the front house is and where the back house is.
The housewarming is the head of the family, and he must live in the front house, but the houses without suites are almost all parallel and do not know the direction.
"Kuroko, where do you say the housewarming will live?" Ma Chengfeng was dizzy in Qiaojiazhuang, just like visiting the Forbidden City without a guide, and finally had no choice but to ask for help from sunspots.
Heizi tilted his head and looked sideways at Ma Chengfeng, and his little ears waved twice, as if he understood what he meant.
"Aren't you a blind cat? Can you not look at me with such ambiguous eyes? ”
Kuroko meowed at him gently, wagged his big tail and turned around and jumped onto the roof of a nearby house. Ma Chengfeng jumped and followed.
The black cat led him through the old houses, and there was no figure on either side of the old house. I don't know if the people of the Qiao family have no entertainment at night. It seems that housewarming is extremely strict with its subordinates. This is in the Dong family compound, those old thieves have nothing to do at night, and the quasi-security gets together to drink a lot of wine and push pai gow.
Meow ...... The black cat walked through an old house and stopped on the eaves, in front of which was the westernmost courtyard, which was quiet, and there was no movement at all, but there was a crack in the front 'door' and it was not locked.
Is this it? Ma Chengfeng jumped down lightly, and opened his ghost pupils in front of the crack of the 'door', the main hall of the house was pitch black, and a man in white was looking around sneakily, that is, Ma Chengfeng had made a light effort, and the others had already been discovered.
Isn't this the same man who dragged the plate through the verandah? This person should be a subordinate of the Qiao family, a subordinate person, in the middle of the night, sneakily running here without sleeping, what are you doing? This is already an inner house, and the people must live in the tube building, without the call of the master, it is impossible to come to the inner house in the middle of the night.
The first floor is the main hall, the main hall is full of antiques from all dynasties, Ma Chengfeng thought this guy was a thief, but this guy glanced left and right, and didn't even look at those precious antiques. Among them, the most valuable one is a holy decree written by Kangxi himself, which was framed and hung directly above his head, which is extremely eye-catching.
He dragged the tray in his hand, and the white gas was still bubbling out under the tray, and seeing that there was nothing unusual in the room, he sneakily walked towards the west wing. There was no 'door' in the west wing, but a curtain of 'door' was hung, and it was very dim inside, and a dim 'colored' candle was lit. Judging from the direction, it should be the ancestral shrine of the Qiao family.
Thinking of these big families, the ancestral shrines are all in the rooms west of the inner house. There is no ancestral hall in the north, and when it comes to the ancestral hall, the northerners must think that it is an ancestral hall, but in fact, it is not. The ancestral hall is an ancestral hall, which is very different from this, the ancestral hall ** is dedicated to the remains of the ancestors of the past dynasties of this family, and the remains are also exquisite, and they must be hand-painted.
The first thing the main family does when they get up every morning is to kowtow to their ancestors. On the fifteenth day of the first month of every month, the family also has to come to worship the ancestors, and what major events happen in the family during the month, birth, old age, sickness and death, marrying and new, must be reported to the ancestors.
The ancestral portrait of the ancestral shrine is from west to east, the westernmost is the first generation, and the farthest right is the head of the family who just died in the previous generation. There can only be one head of a family, that is, although there are countless men in each generation, only the portrait of the head of the family can be hung in the ancestral shrine alongside the ancestors.
The ancestral hall is the most 'private' place for large families, even if there is a distinguished guest, people will not say to visit our ancestral ancestral hall, which is not in line with etiquette. In addition, the ancestral shrine must be taken care of by the head of the family himself, and the descendants are not allowed to enter.
The man in white secretly 'touched' and 'touched' into the ancestral shrine of the Qiao family, Ma Chengfeng followed closely behind, lying behind the curtain of the 'door' to peep, and found that this person put the tray on the offering table, and then knelt in front of the futon in a regular manner, kowtowed a few times to the ancestors of the Qiao family, and put on three sticks of incense.
Hiss...... Isn't he a descendant of the Qiao family? In these years, it is impossible for the subordinates to be so loyal, and it is impossible to kneel before the master. Judging that he is only in his forties, he is definitely not a housewarming's own brother.
After kowtowing a few times, he stepped forward and patted lightly three times under the offering table, only to see that there seemed to be some mechanism under the offering table that had been touched by her, and immediately 'revealed' a gap in the dark grid.
Ma Chengfeng's eyes widened, and he was dumbfounded, and he saw that there was a corpse in the dark compartment, the corpse was wearing luxurious clothes, and it seemed that the clothes were dressed as people of the Republic of China, but the 'meat' on the body had long been rotten, and only such a cold white skeleton remained. The corpse was half-leaning and half-leaning in the dark compartment, with its face facing outward, as if it was looking at the scene outside the darkness.
The man walked over to the compartment, bowed to the bones a few times, then placed the tray in front of the compartment and lifted the lid.
I went to it, and there was a bunch of white 'flowers' and 'flowers' under the tray, and the outside of that thing was wrapped with a layer of silk net, which was very thin, like a spider web, and the inside kept bubbling white gas, and I didn't know what it was.
