Sunglasses man gently knocked on the inner door, after a long time came a weak voice: "come in." The voice is hoarse, I can't tell who it is.

Sunglasses man nodded and stood at the door to invite Pockmarked Li and me in.

It was very dark in the room. The windows were covered with thick curtains. There was no light in the room. Only a thin figure could be seen on the bed. I hesitated to move forward, and suddenly the light came on, but the person on the bed reached out and turned on the antique table lamp placed at the head of the bed.

Li Mazi's eyes lit up and carefully pulled my arm: "look, little brother, that lamp seems to be from Empress Dowager Cixi's time. The colorful glass on it is not ordinary glass, but all genuine agate and jadeite. Such a thing can be used as a family heirloom, and Leng's house is placed on the bright side at will. Do you think it's possible for me to go to Leng's treasure house for a walk I'll live my life. "

I didn't care to answer Pockmarked Li's words at all. I couldn't help but stare at the beautiful shadow on the bed.

For a few months, it was as cold as frost, as if I were a teenager, with thin cheeks and dull eyes, as if I had a great pain. I stared and walked up to her, looking at her puzzledly, "what's the matter, you're hurt?"

Cold as frost reluctantly propped up, his body was crumbling, and his face was white like a piece of paper: "it's a long story. Let him tell you later..." After that, I glanced at the man in sunglasses not far behind me. It seemed that I suddenly thought that this man was not good at words. It was better not to say it when he conveyed it. Cold as frost could not help laughing at himself.

Although she is ill, but this smile is charming to this day, as if snow lotus Sheng - open, cold fragrance pouring. Every word she said was very laborious. After a while, she said to the man in sunglasses, "go and call wuyigur."

The sunglasses man nodded in silence, turned around to call for help, and closed the door carefully.

Leng rufrost glanced at Pockmarked Li anxiously, and there seemed to be some hesitation in his eyes. I hastily explained, "this is a good friend who lives and dies with me. If you have anything to say, just say it without carrying him on your back."

Cold as frost listened to me. His face was a little slow. After a long time of breathing, he said: "brother Jiulin, please come here this time. It's really necessary. Cold home Something big happened. "

Cold home?

I and Pockmarked Li looked at each other, puzzled.

Leng Rushan continued: "brother Jiulin, do you know why Leng family lived in Tianshan?"

I shook my head, and Pockmarked Li interposed: "it must be a lot of valuable Yin things here. You Leng family occupy this place and won't move it."

I stared at Pockmarked Li: "don't talk nonsense if you don't know! You don't talk. No one thinks you're dumb. "

When Pockmarked Li saw my fierce voice, he shut up.

Leng Rushuang's face was also angry. Listen to me, and Pockmarked Li's face was full of remorse, which made her look better: "you don't know, it's not surprising. This is the secret news of Leng's family. If it wasn't because I knew you well and asked for your help, I would never mention it to you..." At this point, cold as frost coughs a few times and gasps heavily. After a long time of recovery, she continues: "everyone in the Leng family has to swear since they are sensible. If they disclose family secrets, they will suffer the curse of death."

Listen to her say, I kicked the interested Pockmarked Li: "you go out and wait."

"Ah?" Pockmarked Li said, "didn't you just say that I was a good brother who lived and died with you? Why are we in a hurry now? "

"At one time, at another time, you are not reliable, and your mouth is loose like a cotton trousers waist. I can't believe you."

Pockmarked Li gave me a vicious look and opened the door to go out. Cold as frost saw me do this, relieved: "brother Jiulin, it's not that I don't believe your friend, it's really related to the family, so I have to be careful."

I just want to say that it doesn't matter, but listen to Leng Rushuang continue: "although I haven't witnessed it with my own eyes, I heard from the elders of the family that there was an aunt in the family many years ago who trusted her husband too much, so I told him all the family secrets. It turned out that this man had ulterior motives. Even marrying my aunt was part of the plan. The purpose was to find out the secret! This aunt was deceived by his fancy words, so she let out the secret that she didn't tell. Then the curse came true, and she died miserably. "

When I listened, I suddenly felt something in my heart: "then do you know who this uncle is?"

Leng Rushuang listened to me, and a satisfied smile came out of his mouth: "I didn't find the wrong person, brother Jiulin, you are smart and bold, just heard me and guessed it, right It's from Longquan Mountain Villa. "

Sure enough! Longquan Mountain Villa wants to have a unique family. In addition to targeting our Zhangjia family, it has also been against Leng family.

Leng Rushuang didn't care about the past, but continued: "speaking of Leng's family history, what I know is not detailed. Apart from reading a part of the family tree, the rest is learned through my grandmother's oral statement. According to her old man, Leng's family has been engaged in Yin business since ancient times. There were many outstanding figures in the family before, and even worked for several emperors. In the period of the Tang Dynasty, the heaven platform specially selected for the emperor's Mausoleum Fengshui was created by the people of our family. It was not until the Qing Dynasty that Lengjia settled down in Tianshan, and there was a great reason for this... "I couldn't turn my eyes to cold frost, but listened to her voice hoarse and continued: "in the Qianlong period, the general Zhaohui led a million soldiers, aiming to subdue the Hui ministry that was occupied here at that time. Huibu, also known as Huijiang, is mainly composed of Uighurs, Hui and Uighurs, also known as Houtou Hui. At that time, the Qing government set up the Minister of enlightenment in Xinjiang, put heavy pressure on the Hui people, who could not bear heavy taxes, and finally rose up to revolt. At that time, Emperor Qianlong sent the General Zhao Hui to pacify the rebellion! "

"However, although the number of returnees is small, they are all of one mind and are very familiar with the terrain here, so at first, Zhaohui didn't get much benefit. However, Zhao Hui used his weapons like a God, lured him with a lot of money, and bought a lot of people's insides. At last, he met the outside and settled the chaos with Zhuo! It is said that at that time, Hui people were hurt one after another, knowing that they were invincible, so they transferred the whole treasure of Hui and women and children to Yeerqiang City, with the intention that they would be able to rise again one day. Unexpectedly, it was betrayed by the inside, and Zhaohui set fire to Yeerqiang City, cutting off the way back to the people. The war was extremely tragic, with countless deaths and injuries. Zhao Hui has been involved in many battles all her life. In this way, she kills unarmed women and children and destroys countless treasures. Naturally, she has no face to report to Emperor Qianlong what happened. "

"Since then, Yeerqiang has become a ghost city, with the wind blowing. Passers-by merchants can often hear the cries and screams of women and children from the ruins..."
