The Guide to Capturing a Black Lotus Chapter 10

Chapter 10

Ling Miaomiao walked into the hall in a hurry.
The official sent by the palace to hand over things has just left. The air is mixed with the aroma of tea and soothing spice. A wisp of white smoke comes out of the censer and rises in the air. Behind is the sheriff who is sitting on the chair. Just after finishing his work, he wipes the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve.
"Daddy."
"Oh, here comes my son?" The prefect's face was full of vitality. It seemed that he was suddenly strengthened. He jumped up from his chair happily and dragged a chair to the opposite side of the case. "Come here, Dad. Are you tired?"
He's white and full of sweat on his forehead and nose. He keeps rubbing it with his handkerchief. He's really a sweating man.
Ling Miaomiao closed the door with his backhand, and closed the window with his sharp hands and feet. Then he sat in front of the sheriff with a serious face and said, "Dad, was that man sent by the palace to relieve the disaster just now?"
Sheriff Leng Leng, "Hey." Funny way, "good girl, do you know him?"
"I don't know." Ling Miaomiao looked directly into his eyes, "the money this time, Dad hasn't moved, has he?"
The sheriff's smiling face froze for a moment, and the embarrassment spread.
After a while, he broke the silence, with an expression similar to panic and flattery on his face. "My son, when did you start to take care of these things?"
Seeing no smile on Miaomiao's face, he was patient and relieved, "you don't have to worry about these things. Dad will deal with them. Dear, you don't have to worry about anything..."
"Can you ignore it?" Ling Miaomiao interrupted, "Dad, are you really stupid or fake? Can you touch the silver for disaster relief?"
“……” The sheriff's expression sank, and then showed a strange smile.
This smile is like a lion looking at the cub with open teeth and claws, full of love and tolerance, "yes, my son taught me that dad should fight, fight."
He laughed for a while, then said, "how much relief needs, dad knows - by the way, listen to the girl said, this year's yarn has pimples? Dad, I'll take a new batch of them... "
Ling Miaomiao looked at his face and felt powerless.
The officials used to take it for granted that Taicang was rich, and the palace attached great importance to it, so they got more money. Of course, the sheriff didn't think it was important.
Ling Yu's mother died early. As a father, the sheriff wanted the moon instead of the stars for his daughter. However, his attitude towards questioning revealed a trace of humor. What did he laugh at? Laugh at her, a young lady who is not in charge of the family and doesn't know how expensive firewood and rice are. She doesn't understand the officialdom ecology, and is still childish in telling her what to do?
"No need." She sighed and looked more and more depressed. "I can't hear anything. I won't say anything."
"Don't be angry?" He came around to her and made a funny face to amuse her, "darling, smile?"
"I can't laugh." Miaomiao didn't turn her head. Her voice trembled on purpose. "Dad, do you know, I had a dream --" she bit her lips and her eyes were full of tears. "I dreamed that because of this incident, we had to make house raids in the palace!"
There are more than 200 people in the sheriff's mansion. They are either captured alive or buried in the fire with their father. She is the only one in the whole mansion who is entrusted to Fu Yi and Mu Yao. From then on, they are reduced to the end of the world, so they have the right and wrong behind them.
Of course someone's going to die for her.
It was the 14-year-old maid, wearing her clothes and shoes, whose face was like rotten apples, and whose clothes were untidy, who died in the wet and cold mud.
Ling Yu's father is not her father, she could have ignored these things. But she couldn't see it.
In addition to the fact that she couldn't see it, she thought it was strange.
"Dad, no matter whether you sneer at the word" clean and honest ", the only thing I know is that it's better to die poor than to die recklessly, and the timid live longer than the blinking one!"
The sheriff's face changed, and a little uneasiness came to his brow. He wiped his sweat again and said with a strong smile: "Miaomiao is just having a nightmare..." His face hesitated for a moment, but he still loosened and pondered for a long time, "in that case, my baby won't often have a new skirt to wear in the future."
"No new skirts." Her nose a sour, "as long as dad is good."
“……” The sheriff's eyes were also suffused with a glimmer of water, and he fell into meditation. After a while, he asked tentatively, "you What else did you dream about? "
"I dreamed that Gide betrayed you and took the account book to the palace."
Gide is the deputy of the sheriff. He has been around for 20 years before he was a sheriff.
Today, Gide has white hair on his temples. His son has four children. His wife and daughter have been living next to the sheriff's house. The two families share the same fate.
He has always been honest, cowardly and easygoing. The plot of the original book arranges him to betray suddenly, which is somewhat of a conspiracy.
What's more, in that fiery night, he took people all the way to the hall, trying to capture the sheriff alive. The voice with ecstasy and violence sounded strange, just like living in evil."Oh! How can a man who can't make a fart with three sticks do such a thing? " The sheriff couldn't laugh or cry.
"I don't care. My dream is real. My father has to guard against it." She didn't wait for the sheriff to respond and said, "come on!"
"Miss?" Gray cloth clothes of a Yi hang hands close, this person is the governor's confidant, Lingyu cicada shell that night, according to the governor's instructions, he knocked out the maid, put on the young lady's silk for her, arranged a Li daitaojiang.
"You go and invite Mr. gidge here, now."
"Miaomiao..."
"Daddy Ling Miaomiao frowned, "when he comes, I can't help but shut him up in the Chaifang until the eighth day of April."
On the eighth day of April, Ling Yu has arrived in Xingzi town with the leading group, which is the latest time that Ling Miaomiao can remember.
"You child..." The sheriff was dumbfounded and laughed, but she let her go and took the teacup to moisten her throat.
"Master, miss! Mr. Ji is not in the room. " A Yi hastily returns, tone is hasty, "in the garden also looked for, have not. Mrs. Ji doesn't know where he has gone
Miaomiao and the sheriff looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
"He said
The eaves split the darkness and light, the rugged ground reflected the scattered light, and the dark green moss was exposed in the stone crevice.
The man on the ground was dressed in a washed white gown. His legs were sitting apart, his temples were white, and his forehead was wet with cold sweat. He looked frightened and at a loss.
The man in front of him was a young man in a snow-white jacket. He handed out the edge of his scarlet coat. The white and red color collided like a plum in the snow. It was very fresh.
He looked down at him, his hair swaying slightly, his skin so white that he could almost see the cyan blood vessels in his jaw.
The boy looked at him with a pair of dark and bright eyes and an uncertain smile.
"No I don't know what this little brother wants me to say... "
Before he finished speaking, he saw the young man stretch out his finger and pull the white hair band on his head. The hair band is long and thin and tied with a loose knot. He pulled it slightly and the hair band loosens.
"I I... "
The young man's eyes were like a reflection of the whirlpool in an instant. The vivid face was quickly transformed in the heavy light and shadow, and the whole body was filled with halo. In an instant, it was beautiful, which was a kind of gorgeous running to madness and death.
His voice was like a string in the sky, soft and bewitching, "do you want to be a sheriff?"
"I I want to be a sheriff. " His eyes are straight.
"Unfortunately, Taicang county already has a sheriff. What should you do?"
"I I... " He can't say, sweat drops down the temples and into the collar. But when he saw the young man's eyes, he immediately lost himself in the boundless whirlpool of stars, "I should It should be replaced. "
"How to replace it?" He is good at persuasion.
"I I denounce him His eyes suddenly brightened, and his eyes were red, flashing with crazy light, "I have evidence, I have evidence of his embezzlement of relief funds It's a big crime, and he'll be dismissed Then, then... "
"But officials protect each other. How can you tell on him to win?"
"I'll go I'll go to find Chen Taishou He and the sheriff are enemies Just, just give him the account book He will, he will revenge... "
"Well." Mu Sheng straightened up, put his hands behind his back, tied the hair band on his head, and casually lifted his eyelids, "go."
The people on the ground got up and ran away, with a trace of paranoid ecstasy between their eyebrows.
"Wait a minute."
When the figure in the white robe was about to stagger to the junction of light and darkness, the boy suddenly raised his eyes and stopped him. He hesitated in situ for a moment, his eyes flashed, "come back."
The man stood still, like a puppet caught in a rope, but hesitated, with a paranoid and greedy look like a hungry wolf on his face.
Mu Sheng's eyes flashed a trace of disgust, stretched out his right hand to grasp the void, and the man suddenly seemed to be dragged by an invisible rope. In an instant, he was pulled down and dragged back to the young man's eyes.
He squatted down, raised his hand and slapped him in the face: "wake up."
The man was blindfolded, and the next second, he showed a crazy look, his eyes were red. Murmur frowned, "wake up!"
It's obviously futile.
The annoyance in the young man's eyes turned to evil. His hand suddenly clasped the neck of the man on the ground. The man was strangled and coughed. His eyes suddenly protruded and he breathed hoarsely.
He hesitated for a moment.
"Mr. Ji? Mr. Ji? Are you in there? " A voice came from afar. Mu Sheng was startled. He knocked Gide unconscious with one palm and pushed him into the narrow gap under the collapse of the bed. He reached out and quickly put down the sheet.
Ling Miaomiao pushes the door in. The door of the west chamber is not locked, because the location is not good and the location is remote. The room is always damp and cool, which seems to isolate the whole room from the sun.Gide didn't bring his account book. He didn't go to complain. He couldn't just disappear in the sheriff's mansion. There must be a place to go.
All the places in the house have been searched, only this room is left.
Coincidentally, the Black Lotus is sitting on the hexagonal stool, a person in a daze at the gloomy empty room.
If this is also a coincidence, we really think that Ling Miaomiao is a fool!
Ling Miaomiao made a gesture to her back, indicating that ah Yi in grey clothes would retreat. She went into the room alone and closed the door with her backhand: "I'm very happy."
"What are you doing here?" The voice of Mu Sheng is steady, and you can't hear the emotion.
Miaomiao raised her eyebrows: "I'm in my own home. It's you who love to go How can you go to the West Wing room to think about life? "
"The last time sister slept here, she left a hairpin. I'll look for it for her." Mu Sheng lowered his eyes and couldn't see clearly.
