All the ancestors in the capital begged me to be a substitute

Chapter 60
"After death", "There is knowledge under the spring".

The words uttered from the mouth of the woman in the wedding dress were enough to shock everyone by her identity.

"Isn't this the younger brother of Xuan Ping Hou who was just removed from the genealogy?"

Suddenly, someone in the crowd recognized Shen Liang's identity, and everyone started talking:
"It must be a big mistake to be expelled. The master of the Longevity Temple actually took in such a person and recommended him to Wei Guogong. I think the master of the temple is not a good person."

"The woman's face doesn't look right, it's black and blue...it doesn't look like a living person."

"Could it be another bride who cheated on the corpse...Last month, Li Tanhua got married. He originally married the prostitute of Xuanping Hou, but when the hijab was uncovered, it turned out to be a female corpse..."

"Ah... Look quickly, the woman's face and hands are covered in patches, are they corpse spots..."

"Ghost...it's a fierce ghost. When the yang energy is at its peak at noon, there is a red-clothed ghost appearing. This... how wronged it is."

In the crowd, exclamations gradually came one after another.

Even Wei Guogong, who was closest to Shen Liang, sensed that something was wrong, took the concubine beside him, and took a few steps back.

Shen Liang was shocked, never thought that the magpie, which had been dead for so long, would appear in front of his eyes.

"Hi, magpie, listen to me..."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he realized something was wrong, and looked at the Taoist nun's hand on the magpie's arm. Sure enough, he saw the nun's fingertips twirling a few filaments.

"Shen Lingxi, you are playing tricks again!"

Shen Liang hurriedly shouted to the viewer, "Quick! Grab this Tao quickly..."

However, before he finished speaking, he saw the magpie's black and blue stiff face suddenly approaching him.

"Hush..." Magpie blew at him.

A cold, corpse-like smell rushed straight into Shen Liang's mouth.

It made him choke his throat.

The magpie's hollow, cold eyes were so close to him.

Even though, Shen Liang clearly realized that the corpse was controlled by Shen Lingxi.

But it is indeed a long-dead magpie.

He could even smell the stench coming from the corpse.

Shen Liang was shocked to the extreme, and still felt nauseous, his stomach was overwhelmed, and he retched loudly.

"vomit……"

"Second master, you said that no matter what I become, you will love me." Magpie sighed disappointedly, "It seems that you are not happy to see me at all."

Seeing her sigh, Shen Liang subconsciously held his breath.

His fingers gripped the handle of the wooden wheelchair tightly, and he stretched his body backward desperately.

"Forget it, I can't get your heart, I want to get your person..." Magpie said coldly: "Today I will help you eradicate your evil, so that you will not be able to harm other women in this Taoist temple in the future. For the rest of your life, guard your body like a jade for me."

There was a sudden exclamation in the crowd.

Shen Liangshang still didn't understand what she meant by saying this, he just felt a sharp pain from under his body——
"what……"

He screamed, and when he lowered his head, he saw a sharp dagger in Magpie's hand... The blood instantly stained the robe under his waist.

The Duke of Wei, who was at the side, was startled when he saw the battle. He took the concubine in his arms and fled outside the hall, shouting at the guards outside, "Protect me! Protect me!"

The little concubine in his arms screamed out in fright.

In such a bloody scene, all the men in the hall were not afraid, and ran for their lives in a hurry.

"Oh my god...it's the ghost...the ghost is here to kill the heartless man!"

"Run! Run!"

In just a few breaths of time, everyone in the hall ran cleanly, and they all surrounded the outside far away, looking inside.

The severe pain on Shen Liang's body was far less than the severe pain in his heart.

These days, he fell from the clouds to the bottom of the mud, and finally rekindled his hope, but at this moment, it once again disappeared.

"Shen Lingxi, I'm going to kill you!"

He wants to strangle Shen Lingxi to death!Choke this dead girl who pretends to be a ghost!Today, even if he dies, he will die with her!

Shen Liang's eyes were scarlet, and he tried his best to push away the magpie's body and seek revenge from Shen Lingxi——
"Crack, click."

There were only two crisp sounds from the joints, and a sudden sharp pain in the shoulder.

Shen Liang screamed out, his half-stretched hand fell down weakly.

The shoulder joints were removed by Shen Lingxi.

However, this is just the beginning.

As Shen Lingxi removed the thread from his fingertips, the body of the magpie collapsed on Shen Liang like a kite with a broken string.

The stiff, black face of the corpse was stuck to the side of his neck, cold and sticky, with the wet and sticky touch of the skin after melting ice.

Fear, anger, hatred, and the nausea brought about by the strong body odor impacted every inch of Shen Liang's nerves.

He wanted to push the magpie's body away, but his shoulders were removed, and his legs were broken long ago. He was imprisoned by the body in this wooden wheelchair. There was nowhere to retreat, and he couldn't do anything. !

"Ah!" he screamed. "Get away! Get away! Get her away!"

Shen Lingxi made a "shut up" gesture to him, "This is your favorite magpie, how can you bear to be separated from her."

"Slut! Slut! Come here, come here, get her away, get her away!" Shen Liang was furious and hated, shouting desperately.

But the people outside, who dare to come forward.

Shen Lingxi leaned close to Shen Liang's ear, and said softly: "Magpie asked me to tell you that she fell in love with you once, and this corpse will be left as a souvenir for you. I wish you good health and a long life from now on." ..."

After saying this, she smiled at Shen Liang, left behind the corpse of the magpie, turned around and walked back to the secret passage, and left in a hurry.

In the main hall, only the screaming Shen Liang was left, and that rotten corpse at noon in the hot summer...

After a long time, when everyone outside the hall realized that the female ghost had left, the guards of the Duke's Mansion boldly entered the hall under the order of Duke Wei.

Just at this time, a woman with injuries all over her body crawled out of the secret passage under the eyes of everyone.

She stretched out her hand to the guards of the Duke's Mansion, "Help, help...help me..."

*
Overnight, the story of "the strong woman in red cheating on the corpse and punishing the heartless man in anger" was widely circulated in restaurants and teahouses in the capital.

The Temple of Longevity was surrounded by people sent by Wei Guogong because a secret way was discovered in full view, and a seriously injured woman called for help.

On the day when the incident happened, Duke Wei entered the palace overnight and reported the matter to the emperor face to face.

The emperor ordered the embroidered clothing commander to personally supervise the case, and Dali Temple and the new prefect thoroughly investigated the case.

In the past few days, Mu Huai'an has rarely been distracted by official business, and has been busy making dowry gifts in person.Reluctantly, she was dragged to the scene, and when she saw the magpie's body, she knew it must be Shen Lingxi's handwriting.

He was about to go to Fu'an Hall to find Shen Lingxi, but he first received the news that she asked him to meet at Heming Tower...
