flowing cloud world

Chapter 42 The clear and traceless jade hand

I looked at her and drank all the wine with my jade hands.

"Why, are you still in the mood to drink here?" Mingyue passed by, holding a sword in her hand with a sneer on her face.

"How can it not be? Green Wuchang himself wants to die in such a gentle hometown as Jingxianju, and he must be very happy to be a ghost. In addition, he is also very willing to give up and invite him like this. Why doesn't Miss Mingyue do it?

"I hope you think so too."

"Miss Mingyue, won't you come for a drink?"

"Isn't it what you, Su Yunliu, did to relieve your worries by drinking?" As she spoke, she had already walked far away. Hearing Youlan and Silan, they thought that the guards of Jingxianju were gone, so Mingyue was responsible for recruiting another group of people, and Red Fire was also helping.

Red fire? If she is asked to choose which one is handsome, she should choose which one, right?

During the conversation and laughter, I hugged the woman on my leg and kissed her gently.

Cangji once asked me if there were any requirements, and I said that the execution would be five days later. Cangji agreed, only because of the last time Lu Wuchang opened the chain by himself. This time, he specially ordered people to use the special black iron used when he was imprisoned in the snow to sweep the air, and even set up several door locks on the cell. These things were irrelevant and went with him. And I, in the eight days that have passed for four days, I just indulged in Yingge Liuting and didn't ask about the world.

"Don't Mr. Su Yun save your friend? The rules of Jingxianju have always been very harsh. According to the predecessors, it is really horrible. I don't know what kind of pain your friend will endure!" Youlan and Silan sat on my lap together. What is so delicate as a light willow? That's all.

"Why mention these disappointing things when you are happy? Youlan, like Lan, why don't you dance together?

The song is soft, dancing, near and far away. But I fell asleep in the open water.

——————————————————————————————————————————

The night of this day is still as usual, enjoying all the excitement about Jingxianju. Usually at this time, whether it is the kitchen or the halls, it will be very busy. In one day, the business has reached its peak at this time. All this income is also a source of money to maintain that Jingxianju has been expanding more and more pavilion buildings.

Red fire can't lie quietly ** until very late, because basically all trivial things, from the understanding arrangement of each maid to maintaining the gentle scene in the Jingxianju, every procedure is not what ordinary people can do.

"Sister Red Fire, please help me, help me, that person is going to kill me. Whoo..." There was a voice floating far and near her.

"Who, who are you?"

"The maidservant is a little maid in the Jingxianju, begging the red fire sister to save the slave maidservant's life. Please, sister."

"Who...who is so bold and dares to kill in the Jingxianju?

"It's the man who was locked up in the dark by the boss. He said it was called green impermanence, that's him. He ran out of it and said that he wanted to kill all the people in Jingxianju little by little. He said that he would return all the shame given to him by Jingxianju. Sister, I'm so scared... Come quickly. I won't be able to see my sister again if it's too late."

Where is he? What's your name? Tell me!"

The red fire sat up from ** and looked at the empty room. Even the candlelight had not been extinguished. Just now, I was sitting by the bed and taking a nap.

Is it just a dream?

She leaned sideways and was ready to get out of bed to drink water, only to find something falling from the edge of the bed. She picked it up curiously and put it in her hand to observe. This pair of goldpin was created by Jingxianju for the maids in a certain year. Basically all maids will have this type of goldpin.

She held the golden cover, and there were still some blood stains on it, half dry.

Isn't it a dream?

Be sure to tell the boss about this matter, close the door, and she has been holding the gold pin in her hand. Walking all the way through the path, she looked around for fear that the man would really suddenly come out from behind and kill her.

————————————————————————————————————————————

When Cangji took us to the dark prison, the doors of the dark prison were all open, and the chains on the hands and feet of Green Wuchang's hands and feet had also been opened. He still sat inside, looked at me, and then turned his eyes and stared at the rough stone top.

He still maintained his original attitude and did not admit or deny it.

However, Cangji and I noticed that there were some mud marks on his feet, which looked wet. If it hadn't been stained with the moisture outside this night, how could the shoes be wet?

"Green impermanence, you are so inhumane! You even want to kill a little maid. If you said that the person who claimed to be the snow sweeper was you, I would save you anyway. Jingxianju also has the rules of Jingxianju. They just follow their rules, and it is reasonable to lock you up in a dark prison. Are you going to hurt so many lives for such a small thing? Besides, you have killed so many people. Come on. If you admit your mistake now, I will plead with you, okay?"

He smiled, "Su Yun, you are so stupid."

Am I stupid? No matter how stupid I am, I am not as stupid as him.

"What the hell did you do to that little maid? Is she still alive now? I shook his body and asked eagerly.

He closed his eyes and stopped talking.

"If you don't say anything more, we will make your life worse than death. Come on, punish me." Mingyue frowned and couldn't help it.

Cangji coughed slightly and stopped in front of Mingyue. "Don't bother. Some people, no matter how you force him, he will never speak. Therefore, Mingyue, you don't have to waste your time. Let him wait here to die. In this way, maybe he will figure out something. It doesn't matter if you don't understand, does it, Su Yun?"

I was surprised* to ask him, but there were no words for a moment.

I know that although Cangji has always respected my opinions on the surface, he has been secretly sending people to monitor my every move. In fact, don't think about it, I also know that he is just afraid that I will rob Green Wuchang from prison and make him unable to make a reasonable explanation to others.

This time, how many chains will be added to the green impermanence? I really don't know, because these things seem to be done intentionally avoiding me.

Red Fire tried very hard to find the maid who appeared in the dream, but did not find any clues. Because there is no person's name or special mark on this goldpin, and there are probably thousands of identical goldpins in Jingxianju.

And thousands of people can't let them concentrate here at the same time, because Jingxianju still has to operate as usual, and no one can offend guests.

The whereabouts of the maid are life or death, and there is no way to find out.

I smiled faintly, but I just laughed at myself. Green impermanence, I won't save you like this.

——————————————————————————————————————————

The night of the fifth day, it was still the same time, and everything was developing in its original trajectory. No one found anything special about this night. In fact, there is really nothing special about this night.

However, Red Fire had another dream, a dream that could be connected to her the night before.

"The slave's death is so miserable, Sister Red Fire, why don't you come to save the slave maid?"

"Who...who...I didn't mean to, I really can't find you! I...I have notified the boss." The red fire shook his hand, hid in the corner of the wall, and curled up in one place.

......

She trembled for a moment, lifted a small piece of quilt corner and leaned out her head.

"Ah..."

A woman in white, with loose hair, just a small bun and a golden hairpin. She sat on the round stool and quietly stared at the red fire.

There is some white weak light scattered around her, which is not too bright to see her face clearly.

The red fire slowly removed the quilt and was about to come slowly.

"Sister, don't come over. My face will definitely scare my sister." While talking, the woman in white had turned her head around.

The red fire hesitated, and finally stopped crying and sat by the bedside.

"I also know that the green impermanence is too cunning. However, I don't blame my sister. I just ask my sister to let the murderer die early, so that I can rest in peace. Hey... It's just a pity that he is still sitting safely now. I can't wait for him to die today. When I arrived at the underworld, I had also sued the king of hell.

"Wait, I'll talk to the boss right away. This man really deserves to die. I'll be right there."

When she finished speaking, Chihuo had already dressed. When she went out, she took a special look at the woman in white who was still sitting on the round stool. It seemed that Chihuo did not see her feet at all.

"Su Yun? Why are you here?"

——————————————————————————

This is how we caught the woman dressed in white.

In order to hide people's eyes and ears, we still took her to the dark prison.

Just now, when I rushed into the door to compete with the woman, she didn't seem to have any martial arts at all, but blocked and struggled.

At that moment, I really saw that face, an extremely horrible and twisted face, on which I could hardly see the clear outline.

All this is caused by this woman. Originally, I really had no clue about the green impermanence thing. Until the green impermanence's mood suddenly changed, I knew what he had hidden from me. Although everything is pointed to him, I still firmly believe that the old green ghost will not do such a thing. Because he doesn't have to.

When I talked about these things with Cangji, although even I thought it was such a far-fetched thing, I didn't expect that Cangji would agree with me. He said, Su Yun, don't be surprised. I'm not giving you face. I just want to find the real murderer. Everyone takes what they need. You don't have to look at me with such grateful eyes.

He always doesn't like to accept other people's caring eyes.

I agreed, so we have been quietly waiting for the real murderer to appear automatically. Therefore, we specially released all the news and delayed the execution eight days later.

The real murderer seems to be aiming at green impermanence, and he wants him to die earlier. Sure enough, on the fourth day, the other party couldn't help it and attacked again. However, what we didn't expect was that the other party actually used the red fire to achieve her goal.

"Why did you find flaws? All my arrangements are seamless!" Although the woman in white was tied up, she was still struggling.
