Chapter 2 What are you really afraid of?

"Girl, are we going back now?"

When we were first at the pastry shop, the girl obviously wanted to go to the ferry to see the excitement.

"Go back."

Wen Jiu waved his hand, she could no longer be interested at all.

Just after I came out, I got a headache job for myself.

She looked around and saw ghosts everywhere. She really didn't know how many ghosts wanted to ask her for help.

She is a ghost hunter, not a Bodhisattva enshrined in Daxing Temple.

With a "bang" sound, large fireworks exploded in mid-air, and the dark night sky was illuminated by the fireworks as if it were daytime.
  Wen Jiu's face changed into various colors against the backdrop of fireworks.

She couldn't remember the last time she saw the sky filled with fiery trees and silver flowers.

Amidst the sound of fireworks and explosions, people cheered and screamed, seeming to have temporarily forgotten all their troubles and sorrows.

Wen Jiu has never felt the joy and hope in people's hearts so strongly.

She travels between humans and ghosts all year round, and what she sees mostly is regret and resentment.

If you can be an ordinary person, you should be extremely happy and lucky.

It's a pity that I am not.

She looked back with some disappointment.

"Zisu, who is that person?"

Wen Jiu suddenly caught a glimpse of a group of people standing in the attic not far away.

The man at the head was dressed in a splendid flying fish suit, and the embroidered spring knife at his waist was very murderous.

Zisu glanced in the direction Wen Jiu said and gasped in shock.

"Girl! That's your fiancé! Lord Jin Yiwei Zhenfu Lu Xulu!"

Zisu never expected that her girl would not even know what her future husband looked like.

"Fiancé? You said he is...that heir apparent?"

Only then did Wen Jiu react.

It turned out to be him, no wonder dad favored him.

I saw that man's sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, a straight nose and thin lips. Although he is good-looking, his face is cold and his expression is cold.

Indeed, Lu Xu, even among tens of millions of people, would be seen as ruthless and cruel at a glance.

Lu Xu seemed to have noticed that while everyone was enjoying the fireworks, there was a line of sight in the crowd looking at him up and down.

He turned his head sharply and instantly locked onto Wen Jiu, who was wearing a red cloak in the crowd.

I saw his eyes were dark and full of inquiry.

Wen Jiu's expression changed immediately. Did Lu Xu notice him?

She quickly lowered the hood of her cloak, not knowing what she was feeling guilty about.

"Who is the woman in red?"

In the hot summer, a woman goes out wearing a cloak?

Lu Xu narrowed his eyes slightly.

"His Majesty, the maid next to me looks like she belongs to an official's family, but this girl looks very unfamiliar."

"check."

Lu Xu's face was solemn, and he could not recognize other emotions.

His current responsibility is not only to try difficult cases, but also to keep an eye on all changes in the city and protect the stability of the capital.

Jinyiwei will never let go of a suspicious person, let alone any clues.

On the other side, Wen Jiu hurriedly entered the Taifu Mansion with Zisu, without even noticing that he was being followed.

Prince's Mansion

"Sir, the identity of the woman in the market has been found out."

"Say." Lu Xu said coldly.

"It's Wen Jiu, the daughter of Taifu Wen."

Lou Wu always felt that he heard this girl's name, but he really couldn't remember it.

"It turned out to be her."

Isn't she just his fiancée who is born with a lot of flaws?

Lu Xu's eyes were dark. Why did she have that expression when she saw herself?
  It was like seeing a ghost. Could it be that he really looked so scary?

After returning to the house, Zisu brought the freshly prepared medicine and prepared it for Wen Jiu to take.

As soon as she entered the door, she was staring at the candlelight in a daze. She didn't even notice that she had entered, and there seemed to be a look of sadness on her face.

"What's on your mind, girl?"

Zi Su speculated in her mind that she probably saw everyone in the mainland being the best today, and the girl herself really didn't look like she could live for too long.

Thinking of this, Zisu felt sad.

"I must have something on my mind, such as going out tomorrow."

Wen Jiu sighed, why did he have to help that kid?

"Why does the girl have to go out? The doctor said, the girl should stay out of the air and see people."

Zisu couldn't help but frown.

The girl was very weird today. First she bought walnut cakes, which she disliked eating the most, and then she was thinking about going out as she disliked going out the most.

"Tomorrow will be different than the past."

Wen Jiu glanced at the maid who was making the bed, "Zisu, where are you from?"

"Girl, this servant is from Yunhe Zhenren clan."

"What a coincidence! We happen to be going to Liujia Village tomorrow!"

Wen Jiu said incredulously.

"Girl, I don't know anything about Liujia Village."

Zisu was really puzzled. What does going to Liujia Village have to do with the people of Yunhe Town?

"It doesn't matter, you can come with me tomorrow."

The people there are not important, but the destination is the most important.

The next morning.

Banxia changed Wen Jiu into a white smoke cage and azalea hundred water skirt.

Her girl already has red lips and white teeth, and this dress makes her face even fairer and more delicate.

Zi Su had already taken out the red cloak from the closet and was preparing to put it on Wen Jiu.

Before going out, Wen Jiu said to Ban Xia: "Tell your parents later that I will take Zi Su out to get some fresh air."

Pinellia ternata should be busy.

The rumble of carriages sounded on this little road rarely passed by.
  Zi Su suddenly covered her nose with a handkerchief, "Girl, did you smell a fishy smell?"    "A fishy smell?"

Wen Jiu stretched out his hand to lift the curtains of the car, and it turned out that he had passed the place where he had conquered the hanged ghosts that day.

The fishy smell that Zi Su smelled may be the smell left after the evil ghost flew away, but it has not dissipated yet.
  "Maybe the wild cat stole someone's fish and came here to eat it."

Wen Jiu randomly found a reason.

Suddenly, the sound of galloping horse hooves came from far away. Wen Jiu quickly lowered the curtain. She was not the one who made public appearances in the capital.

Especially today, it is impossible to be recognized.

Soon the master and servant arrived at Liujia Village.

However, the roads in this village were narrow and carriages could not pass through. Wen Jiu had no choice but to walk in with Zisu.

Zisu followed Wen Jiu less than a foot away, and was very surprised. Why did the girl seem to know the terrain of Liujia Village better than the Taifu Mansion.

Wen Jiu followed Anan around and finally stopped in front of a house.

She looked inside at the door. It was just a courtyard made up of three or five thatched houses, and there was indeed a well inside.

But at least from the outside, there doesn't seem to be anything unusual about the well.

In the yard, there was a five or six-year-old boy sitting on the swing having fun.

"That's my brother, Abei."

Anan stood next to Wen Jiu and said obediently.

"Zisu, my throat feels a little uncomfortable. Go get the water bag from the carriage."

Wen Jiu pushed Zi Su away. She had something to ask Anan alone.

"Yes, girl."

Hearing this, Zi Su hurriedly went to get water.

"You only have one younger brother in your family? Do you have other sisters?"

Wen Jiu looked into the room thoughtfully.

"me."

Anan lowered his head and hesitated, speechless, as if he had something to hide.

Wen Jiu stared at the kid in front of him coldly, and warned in a deep voice: "Since I asked you, you must tell the truth, otherwise I can't help you."

"Sister, no!"

Anan's eyes were filled with sadness, but there were no tears to shed. "I still have a twin sister, but she is probably gone too."

"What do you mean?"

"My sister disappeared a few months ago and no one has been found yet."

Anan finished speaking in one breath, "Grandma said you can't tell others about this."

"Why didn't you report someone missing at home? Why didn't your grandma let you tell others?"

If Wen Jiu's guess is correct, Anan's sister may not be missing, but may be no longer alive.

"I talked to Ling Hua'er from my second uncle's house, but it didn't take long for Ling Hua'er to disappear too."

Anan looked horrified, "This is like a curse. Whoever knows about it will die."

Wen Jiu narrowed his eyes, was he cursing? I'm afraid it's a man-made accident.

By this time the boy on the swing had entered the house.

Wen Jiu slowly walked to the well in the yard. The kid said he washed his clothes here, so in this well.
  "Who are you!"

Suddenly a fierce-looking old woman rushed out of the room. Wen Jiu subconsciously took two steps back, and happened to turn around and see the bottom of the well.

Nothing at all?

Wen Jiu frowned, it seemed that this was not the well.

"who the hell are you?"

The old woman grabbed Wen Jiu's wrist and she grimaced in pain.

The mentality of people who work all year round is different!
  "girl!"

As soon as Zisu walked to the courtyard gate with the water bag in hand, he saw that his girl was being manipulated and was unable to fight back.

"Bold! Let our girl go!"

Zisu quickly threw away the water bag in her hand and rushed forward to push the old woman away.

Wen Jiu was really in trouble at this time. If Zi Su hadn't come, her martial arts skills would have been average but she would have been able to overthrow the old woman.

It was only when Zi Su came that she, who was weak and unable to take care of herself in front of others, was captured by this old woman like a chicken.

"Someone stole something! Someone stole something!"

When the old woman saw that Wen Jiu was being helped, she shouted at the top of her lungs. Her voice was much shriller than that of a ghost who died in vain.

"Stop!" shouted angrily.

Wen Jiu turned his back to the door and couldn't see clearly who was coming. He only felt that the person's voice was strong and powerful, and he should be someone who practiced martial arts all year round.

"Don't let me go yet!"

Wen Jiu suddenly felt his wrists twisted behind his back loosen, and he couldn't help but let out a breath.

She immediately changed her expression to a soft and weak one, ready to turn around and gain sympathy.

But when she saw clearly that the group of people at the door were wearing flying fish uniforms, she would rather continue to be held down by the old woman.

"Why is Miss Wen here?"

Lu Xu, who was tall and tall, walked in from the door with an embroidered spring knife in his hand, looking half-smiling but not smiling.

Ga? Is Lu Xu here?
  Wen Jiu's heart tightened, he was really afraid of something!

It's okay, don't be anxious when something happens, just cough a few times and perform the show.

"Ahem, who is this sir? Ahem, cough."

Wen Jiu stroked his chest and coughed until he was out of breath. Most of his weight was almost resting on Zi Su.

"Our lord is Jinyiwei Zhenfu, the son of the current eldest princess."

The guard beside him raised his eyebrows and said loudly.

"It turns out it's Mr. Lu, but the little girl is blind and didn't recognize the prince."

I really don’t know each other, if Chinese Valentine’s Day is not counted.

Wen Jiu half-bent his body and saluted Lu Xu Yingying, just about to say a few more words.
  No, it stands to reason that Lu Xu has never seen herself, so how does he know that she is Miss Wen?
  "Master Lu, have you seen me?"

Wen Jiu frowned in confusion.

"During the Chinese Valentine's Day, a surprising glimpse."

Lu Xu cherished his words like gold and refused to say a word.

"Oh yeah, that's quite a coincidence."

Wen Jiu thought to himself that he was indeed seen that day.
