The man flicked his arms, and the bamboo umbrella in his hand flew diagonally behind him, whirling in the rain and drifting far away, falling to the ground.

"Bang!"

This suddenly, Chang Sihao couldn't help but be stunned, after all, he came to move Qin Yi's body without permission, and he always felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

Qin Juexiang's foothold was still a step away from the entrance of the spirit shed, the heavy rain was like a pour, drenching his body in an instant, and the water line converged into a stream from his jaw, but he didn't care, his two eyes stared at Chen Shengyi fiercely. Behind him, Ma Mingshao flashed out in time and covered him with an umbrella.

For a moment, it was as if the air had frozen, and the four of them stood still, and the sound of the rain was loud, like each other's beating hearts.

Qin Juexiang had already seen the uncle's body, originally when he had just returned to the mansion, Ma Mingshao asked him if he wanted to take a final look at the uncle's remains, he knew that it must be extremely miserable, and he couldn't bear to see it, so he didn't let the coffin open, and now when he saw the corpse's clothes faded, the scars on it rolled vertically and horizontally, and the knife cut during the dissection just now, it was really ten times worse than he imagined, thinking of the suffering that the uncle suffered before he died, he mourned in his heart, and shouted: "The surname is Chen, you did a good thing!"

Chen Sheng was about to argue, when he suddenly heard a "snap", an object fell from his hand, fell to the ground, and rolled forward, in this dark spiritual shed, suddenly shining.

The four of them looked at it and saw that the thing was round and round, about the size of a duck egg yolk, and it was a high-grade pearl.

Chang Sihao was very curious in his heart, and when he looked up, he saw that the roof of the shed was dark and faint, and there was nothing else, only the sound of falling raindrops.

As soon as Chen Sheng looked down, Qin Yi's face was sideways, his mouth was slightly open, and he immediately understood: It turned out that the jewel was originally contained in his mouth, and when he moved the corpse, he focused on his neck, and as soon as his head was crooked, the bead rolled out.

It was the custom of the time to place the pearl in the mouth of the deceased, called the burial, originally only the emperor died, the pearl could be put in the mouth, the nobles put the jade, and the unofficial and powerful people could only put some copper coins. However, many of the rich and noble families of the people have a lot of wealth, and there are some encroachments. The people in various places are different, and the name of this bead is also different, some call this bead "prison bead", and some call it "soul bead", the latter is the meaning of requiem. The former is to say that when the deceased goes to the underworld, he will be interrogated by the king of Hades, confess the crimes committed in the yang world, what he wears when he dies, and what he has on the body of the ghost, this is something that the gods can't change, and he has beads in his mouth, and when he arrives in the palace of the king of Hades, he can't speak, confess, and he can't be sentenced, so he can avoid being sent to the eighteenth layer of hell to suffer. Therefore, once this bead is placed in the entrance, it must not be out, otherwise it will be very unlucky.

As soon as he saw the prison escape bead landing, Qin Juexiang's face was even more ugly, Chang Sihao hurriedly called Chen Shengyi, who was still stunned, turned Qin Yi's body over, put it in the coffin, and turned back to speak, Qin Juexiang opened his hand to stop it: "Big brother, I heard it, this matter has nothing to do with you." Chen Sheng's face was gloomy, and he continued: "Yes, it has nothing to do with him, it's all my idea." Young master, how do you want to punish me, come at me. ”

Qin Juexiang's eyes were like knives, he scraped a few times on his face, and suddenly smiled angrily: "Uncle Chen's words are out of sight, you are the elder of the Qin family, you have followed your grandfather for many years, and you are still my uncle's generation, how dare your nephew punish you? Not to mention that you also want to find out the murderer, you are kind, there is nothing wrong." ”

Chen Sheng was stunned when he heard this, with his own understanding of him, what he said was really unexpected.

Chang Sihao also knew that with his temperament, his attitude could not change so quickly, most of it was deliberate, and there must be a trick in the next sentence, so he wanted to use the words to suppress it, and said: "Jue Xiang, it's good if you understand." It's a pity that I didn't find out anything this time, so I was busy in vain. Alas, look at you drenched all over, let's not stay here, hurry into the house to change clothes and bake the fire!" he said as he took two steps forward, picked up the prison bead and wiped it.

Qin Juexiang walked into the spirit shed with his hands in his hands, and Shi Shiran said, "That's not busy. Uncle Chen, the little nephew has always respected the elders, and you are naturally no exception, but this time you avoided us and went to the spirit shed to dissect the uncle's body without authorization, and even the little nephew didn't know it, it was inevitably a little inappropriate. Hey, Chen Dajian was a capable officer under the old man Qin Langchuan Qin back then, he knew the courtesy and affection, and he was a great hero, why did he open the coffin for an autopsy and do it without consulting with the people of the Qin family? Could it be that he secretly had some wolf ambitions, and after the death of the old lady Qin, he didn't take others seriously?'At that time, although the little nephew knew in his heart what kind of loyalty and benefits you had to the Qin family, uncle, he couldn't argue with it. ”

Chang Sihao sighed in his heart, knowing that although he was sarcastic by twisting his heart and saying the opposite, the truth was not bad. Chen Sheng was about to open his mouth, but Qin Juexiang turned to one side, and said with his hands behind his back: "Of course, words like this are just some young people chewing their tongues, the eldest husband is not afraid of people's words, and the uncle will not take these things to heart." Besides, the second manager of the Golden Dao Chen has traveled extensively in the rivers and lakes, and the name of loyalty and righteousness has spread all over the world. Those who don't know are about to ask: 'What is the reason for that?' The people of insight said: "It's not Chen Dajian's problem, it's naturally the problem of the young master of the Qin family. "Look, Uncle Chen, you are doing this with good intentions, but in this way, the nephew will be notorious. Good things don't go out, bad words spread thousands of miles, the Qin family up and down, are all brothers who observe festivals and value righteousness, know etiquette and law, and know the general situation, as soon as I hear that the little nephew is such a person, who else can afford me? Maybe they will roll up the covers one by one, and go elsewhere, grandpa has just died, and the nephew is in charge of the door for the first time, I wanted to make great efforts, invigorate Zhongxing, and comfort his old man's spirit in the sky, how could he think that he would be disturbed by this and scatter the clouds in the sky, and the big trees would be scattered, how could he have the face to face the ancestors of the Qin family under the nine springs?

He spoke idly, sarcastic and sarcastic in his words, how could Chen Shengyi not understand, but he didn't mention the autopsy, he only emphasized that it was unreasonable to discuss it with the Qin family, but there was nothing wrong with it, at this point, he was ultimately indebted to him, and he had nothing to say at the moment, only to listen silently.

Ma Mingshao said: "Young master, Mr. Chen did not do this out of bad intentions, his subordinates guessed, he probably had doubts in his heart, so he couldn't wait to check and verify, and forgot to show the young master for a while, since there are no clues, and only a few of us know, if it is not spread, there will be no problems, people in the rivers and lakes, do big things without formality, what do we have to say from our own family?"

"Really?" Qin Juexiang smiled sideways, thinking that you feel very good, but just now who said that they left the table one after another, as if they had planned it a long time ago? You know my attitude towards him in your heart, but you also understand the weight of this beard in the Qin family, with his popularity, this little thing cannot be broken. But now there is a shortage of people, and he is not busy cleaning him up for the time being, and today the deity occupies the word, knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger to make him, make a prestige, give a step, and let him call himself a senior in front of me. On the other hand, he prides himself on being a veteran, if he knows that I am promoting a new talent, he can't help but be unconvinced, since I helped you become the chief manager, I might as well take this opportunity to sing a red and white face again, and let you do this favor, so as not to make him noisy. said: "Well, I think so, Uncle Chen has always been polite and never overstepped, this is recognized by my grandfather, my uncle, my fourth aunt, and even the Qin family, etc., this time I am a little anxious, and it is understandable, not to mention that Brother Ma has spoken, this face is not thin, let it pass today's matter!"

Ma Mingshao smiled: "Young Master Xie!"

Chen Shengyi's temperament has always been one to say one, two to say two, he would rather be beaten and punished, but he is not willing to take this step to settle the matter, but when he mentions Qin Menghuan in his words, and what he says that he never oversteps, although it is a mockery, but her shadow flashed in front of him, and he was depressed, and his heart softened, thinking that he was just a child, and the young heart was victorious, so why bother with him too much.

Ma Mingshao handed over the bamboo umbrella in his hand: "Young master, you are soaked, it is better to go back to the house and change your clothes earlier, I am afraid that if the time is delayed, you will catch a cold and get sick." ”

Qin Juexiang nodded and took it, and smiled at Chang Sihao: "Big brother, I see that you are still in good spirits, how about a few more drinks for our brothers?" ”

Chang Sihao knew that this crash was broken, as if he had already planned to retire, and it was useless to explain, but he also had something to say to him, so he agreed, Ma Mingshao said with a smile: "So Chang Ye and the young master will go together, and I will take care of the spirit shed." As he spoke, he came to pick up the release bead from his hand.

Chang Sihao's face was slightly red, and he said, "How to work, I made a mess, I'll clean it up." ”

As he spoke, he reached into the coffin, pressed Qin Yi's jaw, and pinched the beads with three fingers with his other hand and put them in his mouth.

Qin Juexiang smiled on his face: "Brother Ma is his own person, what are you polite to him?" Let's go, I'll leave it to him here." ”

He opened the bamboo umbrella and looked out at the rain, only to see a vein-like lightning in the distance illuminating the sky.

Chang Sihao pinched the prison bead, his body froze, and his face had changed color.

Immediately followed by a series of loud "Kara-" thunder cracked in my ears.
