Twin Brocade

Chapter 817 Well

Quan Moxian waved his hand, and a state government servant stepped forward and slammed the copper ring on the red lacquered gate with a "bang bang bang".

"what's up?"

The side door next to it was opened, and a boy's head poked out. Seeing such a big battle outside, he shrank back in fright.

The yamen servant grabbed his wrist and dragged him out, shouting: "Why are you running? Open the door quickly and welcome Lord Quan!"

The young servant doesn't have much experience, but he always recognizes that the clothes on the yamen servants represent the government of Bozhou.While he was inside, he heard the commotion outside.Unexpectedly, it was the official who came to the door.

The government represents supreme authority in front of the common people and cannot be rejected.

He was so frightened that his face was ashen, he quickly retracted, opened the door, and crawled into the mansion to report.

Inside the gate, facing you is a white screen wall with three big characters "Fu Lu Shou" written on it.Quan Moxian paused in front of the screen wall, and waited for all the officials behind to arrive before signaling Chen San to continue leading the way.

This is already a private house, the government can enter, but the common people who followed cannot.

But they didn't intend to leave, they surrounded the door tightly, looked at the house in front of them and began to discuss.

"Isn't this the mansion of Mr. Wu? It's the one where Chen San saw the ghost."

"Isn't it?" Someone answered, "That day was very lively, and I even ate at the entrance of the alley."

In order to be lively, big families will set up banquets in the alleys outside when they are doing business.Even if you are not invited by the host, you can eat and drink freely on the flowing water banquet.

"Why did this ghost come to Mr. Wu's house? No wonder Chen San went crazy here. This really hit a ghost."

It is a rare event in a hundred years for a wronged ghost to file a complaint.

All the people waiting outside stretched their necks, scratching their ears and wishing they could have clairvoyance and see what was going on inside the house.

Inside, Quan Moxian, led by Chen San, walked towards the back garden.

Just after passing through the Chuihua Gate, a middle-aged man was surrounded by several servants and rushed to greet him.

His skin was thick and dark, and there was a terrible scar from his left ear to his neck.The knuckles of the fingers are thick, the temples are high and protruding, and the eyes are radiant. It looks like a practicing family.

But what was incongruous was that he was wearing silk and satin, with a few huge gemstone rings on his fingers, which dazzled the eyes.

He is the official Wu in the people's mouth, and he clasped his fists and asked: "If you dare to ask which lord is coming to the humble house, I will be far away from welcoming you, it is really offending."

Quan Moxian stopped in his tracks, Haifeng said: "Our young master is the doctor of the Ministry of Punishment, ordered to investigate the case."

"It turned out to be Mr. Quan." He saw the ceremony, and said, "I don't know why my lord investigated the case, and why I found it in the lower mansion. I am really terrified and inexplicable."

"There was a murder case in your house." Quan Moxian sized him up for a moment, then spoke slowly.

This sentence is not a question, but an affirmation.

Officer Wu's face changed slightly, he clasped his fists and said, "My lord, what do you mean by that?"

Quan Moxian stopped talking and motioned for Chen San to continue leading the way.

Chen San raised his steps and walked towards the inner house.

"My lord!" Officer Wu blocked Chen San's way, and said angrily, "My lord, this is the lower mansion! Even if you are an official, if you want to search the lower mansion, you have to show your order!"

Quan Moxian's eyes narrowed, and he took out a command arrow from Mu Chuan who was holding the lottery tube, waved it slowly in front of his eyes, and then put it back into the lottery tube.

He didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, but his eyes were full of undisguised contempt, as if saying: "I am the order."

Daguan Wu was so angry that his face turned into a pig's liver, but he couldn't help it.

The official sent off following Quan Moxian, and the official Wu snorted resentfully, so he had no choice but to follow behind.

The women and maidservants in the inner house have long avoided in the wing rooms, and all the salutes along the way are daughters-in-law and mother-in-law.Fortunately, Chen San did not lead the way to the wing, but walked around the garden to a more remote corner.

Wu Daguan's face changed slightly, and he glanced at his follower who was following him.

The long follower nodded quietly at him, and he finally calmed down.

"My lord, he's gone down." Chen San stopped beside a well, pointing to the well.

well?

All the arresting yamen servants immediately realized that there must be something wrong with the well, so they stood in a circle around the well.

Quan Moxian paced a few steps in the well, and said calmly, "Move away."

Yes, move away.

A large bluestone slab was built on top of the well, and several stones were pressed on it.There are no wheels and ropes on the derrick, and there are no buckets that should appear here.

Everyone agreed, and was about to go forward, Mr. Wu quickly walked a few steps to stop him, and said in a deep voice, "Wait a minute!"

"To tell you the truth, my lord, this well has been abandoned at home for many years." He said, "I can't say much about the reason because it involves family matters."

"Since it is discarded, opening it again will not disturb the dragon god in the well."

Quan Moxian glanced at him, and gestured for the yamen servant to continue.

"No way!" Daguan Wu, sweating all over his face, walked up to Quan Moxian, and said in a low voice, "My lord, please take the time to elaborate."

The previous irritation was gone from his voice, full of pleading.

"Okay, I'll give you some time to burn an incense stick."

Quan Moxian walked a few steps to the side, Wu Daguan hurriedly followed, bowed and said: "A few years ago, the dog was ignorant and fell in love with a maid. I thought it would be just a housekeeper, but I didn't expect that maid With high spirits, I just threw myself into the well."

Pointing to the well, he said: "You have someone to seal the well and perform religious rituals."

"The maid, do you have a contract of prostitution?"

"Yes, yes." Officer Wu nodded again and again, and said, "It's the son of our Wu family. I'll let my wife find it out and show it to your lord."

Since the family has a child, it is the property of the Wu family, and life and death are at the disposal of the Wu family.At this point, even the government has no right to intervene.

"Isn't that just right?" Quan Moxian said: "It's not a problem for you to keep sealing this well. You might as well take advantage of today to pick up her body and put it in the ground for peace."

"Your Excellency..." Officer Wu rubbed his hands together, and said, "Well, when the well was sealed off, a Taoist priest was invited to do it. To prevent the ghost from threatening his life, the Taoist priest drew a spell on the bluestone."

"The Taoist said that his talisman cannot be destroyed. Otherwise, even if the ghost comes out of the well, he won't be able to suppress it."

Ghost?

If it is really as simple as Wu Daguan said, how could the maid who threw herself into the well become a ghost.Among them, I don't know what else is unspeakable.That maid, I don't know what kind of torture she has suffered.

"It's about the safety of the house, and I hope that the adults will be more accommodating." After speaking, Mr. Wu took out a purse from his sleeve and stuffed it into Quan Moxian's hand.

Quan Moxian gave him a cold look, then flipped his purse to the state government servant who led the team, and said, "Move well, Mr. Wu invites you to drink tea!"
