If it's normal, Qin Xiao wouldn't care too much.
But it’s already midnight. According to reason, Mapo should have fallen asleep long ago. At this hour, young and strong young people should also rest, let alone this half-foot. The old woman in the coffin.
The windows were tightly sealed with linen cloth, but Qin Xiao saw the light from the cracks. He was not sleeping at this time, and he didn't know what the old woman was doing in the house.
Qin Xiao walked past the oil shop and was about to go to his courtyard, but suddenly stopped.
He turned his head, looked at the window, thoughtfully.
Since the mysterious old woman appeared a few days ago, Qin Xiao's doubts have deepened, and it is strange to say that every time she thinks of the old woman, the shadow of Mapo can't help but surface in his mind.
The lights in Ma Po's room were still on in the middle of the night. Although strange, it had nothing to do with Qin Xiao.
But I don't know why, at this moment Qin Xiao has a curiosity in his heart.
Looking up at the moon in the night sky, Qin Xiao took a deep breath, and then swiftly got into a narrow alley opposite.
He is so familiar with this street, brick by brick, he can touch it with his eyes closed.
Passing through this gap is the back alley. This back alley is not a place for pedestrians. On weekdays, no one will come here, but you can get to the back of the oil shop.
Qin Xiao's footsteps were very light, and he was short. He walked to the oil shop. A window was opened on the back wall. The front window was sealed so tightly that Qin Xiao could not see what was happening in the house. He wondered about this. The rear window was never as dense as the front window, but after a glance, I found that the rear window was also sealed with linen, and he was speechless.
But compared to the front window, there is indeed a gap between the linen cloth of the rear window. Although it is not large, it can really peek inside.
The front window was so tightly sealed that Qin Xiao already thought it strange, and the rear window was also sealed, which made Qin Xiao wonder if there was anything invisible in the old woman's house.
But what secret can such a dim-eyed old lady have?
He held his breath, leaning one eye into the tiny gap, looking into the room.
When he saw the scene in the room, his face suddenly changed and he almost made a sound.
There was a lone lamp lit in the room, and the furnishings were very simple. There was a bed in the corner, and in the room, there was a big bathtub.
The big bathtub is made of bamboo. There is hot water in it. A gust of heat diffuses from the big bathtub like entanglement, but Qin Xiao clearly saw that there was a person lying in the bathtub. A woman with her head resting on the edge of the bathtub, her black hair spread out, although most of her body is covered under the water, she can't see her face clearly for a while, but the whiteness of her neck is as dazzling as snow The skin is unforgettable.
Qin Xiao gave a startled glance and immediately shrank back.
Although it was just a glimpse, the sight shocked him.
No matter how dull he was, he could see that the person bathing in the room could never be an old woman, and how could the white, greasy skin belong to an old woman who was more than ancient.
Don’t Mapo live alone?
But the moment he retracted his gaze, he saw a chair beside the bathtub. The linen robe that Mapo wore was clearly stacked on the chair. In addition, he even saw There are a bunch of other things stacked on the chair.
He has a small heart pounding and pounding.
Hold your breath, close your eyes, and try to calm yourself down, before moving in again.
Looking into the house again, the bathtub was still lingering, but what surprised Qin Xiao was that the woman who was still lying in the bathtub the moment before, there was no trace at this moment. If it weren’t for the hot tub, there was still steam. Qin Xiao even suspected that he was dazzled.
He hurried to look at the chair next to the bathtub, and the clothes that had been piled on it were nowhere to be seen.
He frowned, thinking that there was a short interval before and after him, no matter where people and clothes were gone, the speed of that person was simply appalling.
The room has a clear view, and there is indeed no one. Qin Xiao wondered if he was really dazzled just now?
He also knows in his heart that if the other party finds him and evades quickly, then he is afraid that he is already very dangerous now, and he dare not stay here for a long time. With full of doubts, he cats back to the alley and is about to When I entered the alley, I felt a flower in front of me. Before I could see clearly what was going on, I felt like I was hit hard by something in the back of my head. I was dizzy and dizzy. I had to turn my head to see what was going on. There was a shadow, but before he could see it clearly, he fainted with a flower in front of him.
I don’t know how long it took before Qin Xiao woke up from a coma, and his eyes suddenly brightened. After looking around, he found that he was actually in the room of Mapo, and the bathtub in the middle of the room was still there. However, there was no heat, and the water inside was already cold.
But there was no one else in the room. He wanted to stand up. Only then did he realize that his legs were tied with tendon rope, and his arms were tied behind his back. The most terrible one was himself. His mouth was also covered with burlap, stuffed in his mouth, he didn't know what it was, he couldn't even speak.
He murmured secretly in his heart, knowing that he must have been spotted when he was peeping, and the man arrested himself.
He tried his best to calm himself down, wondering if it was Ma Po who shot?
But Ma Po is very old, and a gust of wind can blow that woman down, where does she have the ability to start with herself?
He still vaguely remembered that before he fell into a coma, he was hit in the back of the head by someone. The man moved sharply and had a ghostly body. How could Mapo have such an ability?
Could it be someone who took Ma Po's house?
The turtle city is a mixture of fish and dragons, and there are a lot of splashes in the market, but the rangers are not uncommon, and some of them are indispensable.
When I was joking with officials in the Yamen, some people also said that this turtle city seems peaceful, but in fact, there are undercurrents in the dark. In this city, there are spies from various forces, including Datang spies, There were also spies from the various ministries of Wu Tuo and Tusun in the north, and even Murong in southern Xinjiang sent spies to hide in the city.
Although Qin Xiao was dubious, he believed that there must be masters lurking in this city, and the mysterious old lady who had rescued at least several times lurked in the city.
If what I saw tonight was a spy of a certain force, but was discovered by her, then I was really bad luck now.
He was thinking about himself. He heard a "crunch" and the door was pushed open. Then he saw a Ma Po wrapped in a linen robe and walked in slowly. The old woman had gray hair and wrinkles on her face. The yellowing age spots are also clearly visible, but the way she walks is obviously not staggering like before.
Ma Po walked in front of Qin Xiao, her eyes were cold, and she untied the linen cloth covering Qin Xiao’s mouth, and took out a black cloth towel from his mouth. It was a bit greasy. Qin Xiao glanced at it and almost vomited. When he came out, he suspected that it must be a rag for wiping.
"Ma...Ma Po...!" Qin Xiao forced a smile, thinking that since Ma Po appeared, things shouldn't be too bad.
After all, I and Ma Po have been neighbors for so long, and I'm polite to her on weekdays, so I shouldn't be cruel to myself.
"Choke!"
Ma Po actually held a dagger in his hand and took it out of the scabbard. Under the light, there was a cold light. Qin Xiao saw that Ma Po’s originally cloudy eyes were unexpectedly sharp at this moment, just like in the night sky. Stars.
"That night, a shadow entered your yard." Ma Po's voice was slightly hoarse: "Do you know who that person is?"
Qin Xiao was stunned. Some Zhang Er monks were confused and embarrassed: "Ma Po, I don't understand what you are saying...!" As soon as his voice fell, the blade flashed. Qin Xiao felt his throat cool in an instant, and Mapo had already held the blade of the dagger against his throat.
"If I ask you what, you just answer honestly." Ma Po said coldly: "Kill you and bury you in the alley behind the house. I promise that no one can find out who did it for ten years. Of."
Qin Xiao thought that what the old woman said was right.
If she really died in her hands, she would bury herself behind the house, I'm afraid no one really knows.
I am missing, of course the Captain Mansion will look for it, but who would have thought that I was harmed by an old woman who had no power to restrain the chicken?
Although Han Yunong is great, I am afraid he would only think of it being related to the Zhenhou Mansion.
Qin Xiao was only frustrated in his heart.
"I really don't know who you are talking about." Qin Xiao said bitterly: "You remind me."
"The night in Zhenhou Mansion called the Three Deaths of Ghosts." Ma Po said coldly, "Do you know who the man came out of your house that night?"
Qin Xiao was embarrassed and thought to himself that this mapo was not easy.
The three ghosts were killed, it can be said that the corpse capital of that guy was completely cleaned by the mysterious old woman, which made his body completely disappear from this world.
Mapo actually knew about that.
It seems that the old woman had been watching the night of the incident.
"I don't know." Qin Xiao said: "That night Guishou San wanted to kill me, and then someone suddenly appeared and killed Guishou San, and then she disappeared."
"Gone?" Ma Po was very cold: "You don't know who he is, how can he save you? You are lying."
"I didn't lie." Qin Xiao said: "Since you know that Guishou died three times, don't you know who that person is?"
Ma Po sneered: "Is it me asking you, or you asking me?" The blade was even tighter. Qin Xiao only felt that the blade was about to pierce his throat half an inch forward, and a cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
"Ma Po, I really don't know who she is." Qin Xiao sighed: "It's no use for you to force me to death. I don't know whether he is a man or a woman." I thought that the mysterious old lady ordered If you live by yourself, you must never reveal her identity to the outside world. She has a life-saving grace for herself. Of course, she can't betray her immediately just because Ma Po put a dagger on her neck.
Seeing Qin Xiao's dishonesty, Ma Po sneered, retracted the dagger, and took out a small bamboo tube from his arms.
Qin Xiao saw that the bamboo tube turned yellow, and saw that Ma Po carefully opened one end of the bamboo tube and put one hand on the mouth of the bamboo tube. He didn't know what medicine the old woman was selling in the gourd, but she was shocked and finally reacted. Coming here, although Ma Po was wearing the linen and brown robe that she used to be, with silver hair and wrinkles on her face, her hands were not gloved. Her exposed hands were as white as jade, and her fingers were like orchids. , Completely mismatched her appearance, and instantly understood that the woman lying in the bathtub that she had seen from the back window was really Mapo.
