Miss Fortune: Is the regent ready for today?

Chapter 173 Burning Strange Fragrance
"Ahem..." Chi Linjing felt like he was choking on something. He coughed twice, raised his hand to cover his mouth and nose, and waited for a while before returning to normal.

Song Liuxiao sneered, "Ha, that's it." He touched the tip of his smooth, round and tall nose with some confusion.

There was still a long way to go to Wuzhou. Song Liuxiao was silent for half a stick of incense before starting a new conversation.

"I wonder where Mr. Ye... and Miss Lan are from?"

Yin Luo smiled and replied: "Go to Beijing."

"How old are Mr. Ye...and Miss Lan?"

Yin Luo still smiled: "I am eighteen and he is nineteen."

"It's only one year apart, but it's been a long time since I was pregnant in ten months. Your mother..." Song Liuxiao didn't know what to say in the second half of the sentence. Although she had no experience in this area, she had accumulated some experience after traveling all over the country for so long. She always felt that these experiences were not practical. She heard from a very powerful midwife in Wuzhou that the woman was very weak for a year after giving birth to her child. Pregnancy would consume a lot of her energy. I think no one would do this to her... Body.

"Ha," Yin Luo smiled frankly, "Miss Song wanted to say, 'Your mother is really amazing.' Thank you, Miss Song, for the compliment. The age difference between us is indeed not much, but we are exactly ten months apart. Besides, we are We don’t know who our mother is, so there’s no need to delve into it, haha, there’s no need to delve into it.”

Song Liuxiao swallowed, she really couldn't find a topic.

This noble and handsome young man in dark green robes was silent all the way. The girl in white clothes had a bit of a storyteller vibe when she spoke, making it difficult to tell the truth from the lies.

She thought it would be better for her to be quiet for a while.

I'm really afraid that this weirdo named A Lan will say something as terrible as a bolt from the blue.

For example...her brother was deceived by that woman and went bankrupt and still had to raise two children...

Song Liuxiao swallowed again and shook off the random speculations in her mind. She looked at the spacious forest road ahead and the vague outline of Wuzhou City, beckoning the truck to follow closely and not to fall behind.

As night fell, this group of people slowly entered Wuzhou City. Yin Luo and Chi Linjing said goodbye to the escort team of the Song Family Escort Bureau on the grounds that they still had something to do. After inquiring about the locations of several inns in the city, they exchanged pleasantries. They only said a few polite words that they would visit Song Liuxiao someday to thank Song Liuxiao for his help today, and then the two of them rode straight to the inn.

Wuzhou is the second largest commercial and tourist city in Daliang after Lincheng. It is the season when the sycamore leaves are flying, and the daily flow of people is always much higher than in other areas. The two of them followed Song Liuxiao. I checked all the inns provided, but unfortunately, the first few inns that were very prosperous were all full, and not even a lower-class wing could be vacated.

Only the last Jianghu Inn in the north of the city that looked very dilapidated still had vacancies, but it was the only one.

Yin Luo watched the innkeeper take the remaining white money from her with a smile, and then called the waiter with a loud voice to greet them to go back to the room to rest. She couldn't help but start to think about it. The scale of this Jianghu Inn has always been small. There is only one bed, and the room built for people to rest will not collapse. So who should sleep on the bed and who should sleep on the floor between her and Chi Linjing?
Yin Luo didn't dare to think of something as shocking as letting Chi Lin quietly sleep on the floor, and it was even more impossible for her to sleep on the floor by herself. Yin Luo rolled his eyes and thought: If it doesn't work, just throw the shopkeeper out in the middle of the night. The place where the shopkeeper lived was given to Chi Linjing.When the shopkeeper saw the silver and when he didn't see the silver, they were two different people. They had the same virtues as the four strong men on the Bafangtang bandit road. It seemed that the people around Wuzhou were indeed well-deserved, greedy for money, indeed greedy for money.

Pushing open the mahogany door, the waiter's mission came to an end. The two of them walked into the room and smelled a very strange smell, like the smell of charcoal ash left after a fire or something. The smell of incense fills the temple all year round.

Chi Linjing frowned and turned to look at the door behind her that was closed by the waiter.

Yin Luo glanced at him and turned to look over.

The oil paper on the door obviously has traces of being smoked, showing yellowish stains, but only the right half of the door has it, and the left half is intact. The furnishings in this room are quite exquisite, but the objects are old and not in use. It needs to be renovated, and if you look closely, you will find it a bit strange.

Chi Linjing slowly walked to the small incense burner, raised her hand and opened the lid. There was nothing inside, even the incense ashes had been cleaned up. Yin Luo came up and stretched out his fingers to twist the bottom of the burner. Looking at the fingertips, there are only two or three scattered bits of incense ash.

"Someone specially wiped the incense burner," Yin Luo rubbed the incense ashes twice, brought it to the tip of his nose and smelled it, but for a moment he frowned, where is the incense ashes?
This powder, which smelled a little bit of blood and burned human bones, was clearly... ashes.

A shiver ran down her back unconsciously, and she wiped it twice randomly on the huanghuali tablecloth, and then looked at the burning marks at the door. The marks were not in the shape of a human body.No other abnormalities were found around the room, but the candlelight lit by the waiter swayed slightly, and the light and shadow of the illumination were unstable, which made people feel frightened.

Although she had been following Ming Fanlan since she was a child and had seen horrifying things in the world, and her courage had gradually been frightened, but putting "people" into the incense burner would be too cruel, vicious and perverted, right?
Chi Linjing watched as she looked a little strange, then looked into the incense burner and said, "There's something terrible in there." His tone was still light, and he couldn't tell whether it was a question or a statement.

"It should be ashes." Yin Luo frowned. "There is a smell of blood. Maybe someone put a small amount of body parts into this incense burner and burned it. They tried to clean the incense burner but failed to clean it."

"Hey," Chi Linjing's tone rose. He crossed his chest and tilted his head, pointing to the incense burner. "That's not right. If the burned corpses were to fall on the wall of the Qingshan Porcelain incense burner, they would definitely be left behind. Something similar to grease. I heard from the servants in the royal court that human grease is a very strange thing. The smell after burning lasts for many years, and there will be black marks that are difficult to wipe off. This does not look like burning. It looked like there were corpses. Also, when we entered the house, we smelled it, like burning paper and incense sticks. It was not an unbearable stench." He looked around, his eyes scanning the objects placed in the house one by one, and then said : "There was no fight in this house, and no one died."

"How do you know?" Yin Luo also followed his line of sight and looked at the things in the house again, but she didn't understand the reason why he said this. Although the furnishings in the house were not messy, it did not mean that this place had been here before. There was no fight.

It is well known that many inns will put things back into their proper places after experiencing a fight.

"Because the people who once lived in this room did not live in this room well." He lazily stretched his sore shoulders from riding a horse twice, and said as he walked towards the bed: "Look Which one is cleaner, the tea table in the southwest corner or the cabinet behind the tea table?"
