Chapter 115 Prophecy!Sun Fujia is going to die? ([-]-in-[-])

after one day.

In the mountain road.

As the sun sets, dark clouds suddenly gather and heavy rain pours down.

The night road, which was already difficult to walk, became even more difficult as the heavy rain fell.

Inside the carriage.

Sun Fujia raised the car curtain and looked at the heavy rain outside. He frowned and said, "It's difficult to travel at night. It seems that we may not be able to reach Chang'an at noon tomorrow."

Lin Feng was holding a piece of paper in his hand. The letter on the paper was "passed by the police".

He found this certificate in Wang Pengcheng's baggage, and it was prepared by Wang Pengcheng in order to escape.

Lin Feng narrowed his eyes after looking at the marked places to pass and the place where Wang Pengcheng finally wanted to go.

"Cizhou..."

This name is somewhat familiar.

Lin Feng thought for a moment and then remembered it.

Cizhou, isn't this the place where Du Gou, the governor of Cizhou, who inherited the title of Du Ruhui, served?

He and Du Gou had already made friends with each other before, and they had a good impression on each other. Unexpectedly, he saw the word Cizhou here.

Wang Pengcheng's destination was Cizhou. Did he really want to go to Cizhou?Or is it just to increase the places you can pass along the way so that you can have more hiding places?
Lin Feng's fingertips gently caressed the piece of paper and shook his head slightly.

Wang Pengcheng didn't speak, so he really couldn't guess anything based on this incident.

It seems that after returning to Chang'an, we have to ask Xiao Yu and the others to help open Wang Pengcheng's mouth.

He put away what he had done, listened to Sun Fujia's words, glanced at the heavy rain outside, and said slowly: "Safety is important, no matter how urgent it is, don't rush for a while. If it is really difficult, just find a place to spend the night. Tomorrow morning Let’s go again.”

Sun Fujia nodded, he had the same idea.

It was originally difficult to walk on the mountain road at night, but now that it is raining, the risk factor is too great.

He was about to ask Zhao Shishi and others to find a place to take shelter from the rain, but suddenly, the carriage stopped without warning.

Then I heard Zhao Shiwu's voice: "Father, Dr. Sun, the road ahead is temporarily impassable."

"Impassable?"

Lin Feng raised his eyebrows and said, "What's wrong?"

Zhao Shiwu said: "The rocks on the mountain rolled down and blocked the road. The rocks must be moved away before we can continue to pass."

"But these stones are not small in size and there are a lot of them. They cannot be moved cleanly in a short time."

Lin Feng stepped out of the carriage and looked forward.

During the lightning and thunder, you can see that there are indeed many stones on the road.

He squinted his eyes and looked at the mountain wall on one side.

It's just that the mountain wall is pitch black and nothing can be seen at all.

Lin Feng thought for a moment and said, "On our way here just now, did we pass by any place where we could take shelter from the rain?"

Zhao Shishi nodded and said: "There is a villa not far from here. When we passed by just now, I found the lantern in the villa."

Lin Feng thought for a while and said: "Then let's go to the villa to stay overnight. It's raining so heavily now, and it's not convenient for you to carry these stones. Moreover, if there are still stones rolling down due to the heavy rain, we will all be in danger."

Mudslides and landslides are no joke.

Zhao Shishi nodded hurriedly: "Okay!"

With that said, everyone began to turn around.

Lin Feng returned to the carriage.

Sun Fujia glanced at the stones on the road and lowered his voice: "Could it be done by the Four Elephants Organization?"

Lin Feng shook his head and said, "Probably not."

"Only we know about the gold hairpin in Wang Pengcheng's hands. The people in the Zheng County Yamen know nothing about it."

"And our people are always on the road. No one has ever left alone. Even if there is a spy from the Four Elephants Organization, there is no chance to pass on the news."

"Besides, the way we go back is different from the way we came here. Even if the Four Elephants Organization knew about Jin Chai, they wouldn't have expected that we would take such a long circuit when we go back."

Lin Feng raised the car curtain, looked at the stones behind, and said: "Not to mention that there are really many stones and they are very big. If they were man-made, they would not be able to move here in a few hours. The Four Elephants Organization There is simply not enough time... And if it is really them, wouldn't it be better for them to attack and kill us directly? Why bother to do this troublesome thing? Their goal is Jin Chai, and they are not trying to capture us alive. Our life and death are not important to them. , it’s not important at all.”

After listening to Lin Feng's analysis, Sun Fujia thought for a while and nodded immediately.

He breathed a sigh of relief: "That's right, there is no need for the Four Elephants Organization to do such troublesome things."

He looked out of the car window and saw that Zhao Fifteen and others had turned to another road. As they entered this road, they could already see the lanterns swaying slightly in the heavy rain and emitting a faint light in front of them.

Sun Fujia said: "Fortunately, there is such a villa nearby. Otherwise, we really wouldn't be able to find a place to take shelter from the rain, which would be difficult."

Lin Feng smiled and nodded: "Yes, so we are really lucky."

During the conversation, the carriage arrived at the entrance of the villa.

Two lanterns hung on the door, swaying violently in the strong wind.

Zhao Shiwu quickly jumped out of the carriage and came to the door and knocked on the door.

While knocking on the door, Zhao Shiwu shouted: "Is there anyone there?"

His voice was loud and penetrating. Even the crackling rain could not cover up Zhao Shiwu's movements.

Not long after, a voice sounded from behind the door: "Coming, coming."

Soon, a creaking sound was heard, and the closed door was opened.

The figure of a middle-aged man appeared in the sight of Lin Feng and others.

He was wearing a raincoat and a bamboo hat. With the help of the faint light of the lantern, Lin Feng and others saw that his nose was a bit big and there was a black mole on the tip of his nose. The middle-aged man looked at Lin Feng and others with curiosity and said: "You are?"

Just as Zhao Shishi was about to speak, he heard Lin Feng cupping his hands and saying, "I'm sorry to bother you. We are travelers traveling overnight, but we didn't expect that the road ahead encountered falling rocks, making the road blocked. And now it's dark and it's raining heavily. It is difficult for us to clear the road, so we have to come here to disturb you. I want to stay here for one night and start our journey again at dawn tomorrow. Is it convenient?"

The middle-aged man glanced at Lin Feng and others and said, "How many of you are there?"

Lin Feng said: "22 people."

He seemed to be worried that the middle-aged man was afraid of crowds, so he hurriedly said: "We don't mind the accommodation, it can be crowded, and we can pay some fees, so we won't live and eat at your place for free."

Hearing this, the middle-aged man shook his head with a smile and said: "Don't worry, our manor is big enough for you people to live in, and our master is very charitable and has helped many business travelers staying overnight. He doesn't care about your food at all. thing."

"You guys wait a moment, I'll go ask the master for instructions."

Lin Feng cupped his hands and said, "Thank you."

Zhao Shiwu looked at the middle-aged man's leaving figure and said, "We are really lucky. I'm worried that the people in this manor are afraid of the large number of us and won't let us stay overnight."

Lin Feng smiled and said: "The master hasn't said yet whether he will let us stay overnight. It's too early to be happy now."

Zhao Shishi scratched his head and nodded honestly: "That's true."

Not long after, the middle-aged man came back.

He hurriedly said: "I have kept you waiting for a long time. The master said that it is cold in the night and it is raining heavily. Since the road is blocked, you can rest in our manor for the night. As for money and other things, our master is not short of this kind of money. You can rest assured and stay here.”

After listening to the man's words, Lin Feng smiled and said, "Then we'll be in trouble."

The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "I am the housekeeper here. You can just call me Housekeeper Han. Come on, I will take you to where you live."

After saying that, he turned around directly with a very enthusiastic attitude.

When Sun Fuga saw this, he couldn't help but sigh: "A house that has accumulated good deeds must be blessed. No wonder your master can own such a manor."

Butler Han smiled: "When our master was young, he received favors from many people, so after he became successful, he treated others in the same way, being kind to others and making things convenient for others."

Sun Fuga nodded, agreeing with Butler Han's words.

"Hehehe...wuwuwu..."

At this moment, a crying and laughing voice suddenly sounded from the side.

The sound sounded suddenly and without any warning, directly startling Sun Fuga and others.

During the lightning and thunder, with the help of the light of lightning, they discovered that there was a woman squatting on the rockery not far from the door.

This woman looked like she was twenty years old. Her hair was disheveled and her whole body was soaked by the rain. It was obviously the late autumn season in early October, but she was still wearing a thin underskirt, which looked very strange.

At this time, this woman was looking at Lin Feng and others with her dark eyes. She cried and laughed: "Hee hee, woo hoo, who are you?"

"Do you know that this is the underworld? You can't come here."

As she spoke, she suddenly raised her finger, put it to her mouth, tilted her head, and whispered: "Shh! Don't speak loudly, you will be heard."

"As soon as those ghosts hear this, they will take you away, take them all away, hee hee, woo hoo...take you away, take them all away!"

Seeing this woman's crazy look, listening to her words, and the lightning and thunder in the background, Zhao Shishi got goosebumps instantly.

Sun Fujia felt a little numb and couldn't help but said: "Butler Han, is this?"

Butler Han quickly said: "Everyone, I'm sorry, this is our young lady."

He quickly stepped forward and said, "Miss, why are you here? Your clothes are all wet."

He hurriedly called to the other servants: "Come here, why are you still standing there? Send the young lady back to her room quickly. If the young lady gets sick because of this, and the master gets angry, you will all be left with nothing to eat."

But when the woman heard this, her eyes suddenly widened with a look of horror on her face: "No, I don't want to go back. That's the underworld. Don't come near me. You are all ghosts. I don't want to go to the underworld. I don't want to go back." go!"

As she spoke, she turned around and jumped directly off the rockery.

But as soon as she took two steps, she was so panicked that her feet slipped and she sat directly on the ground.

She stood up, not caring about her muddy skirt. She turned back to look at Lin Feng and the others. She smiled first, then cried: "This is really hell, don't come, don't come..."

As he spoke, he rushed into the heavy rain and ran away.

When the servants of the manor saw this, they quickly chased after him and quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.

Butler Han looked away worriedly. He returned to Lin Feng and others and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I scared you."

Lin Feng's eyes narrowed slightly, and he asked curiously: "I wonder if this is the lady from your house?"

Butler Han sighed and said: "To be honest with you, our young lady was frightened when she was young. Since then, her mind has often been unclear. She is better during the day, but once it gets dark, she always screams. He said something like what he saw."

"Our master hired many doctors to treat the lady's head problem, but the doctors couldn't do anything, so the master had to ask his servants to watch the lady as soon as it got dark to prevent her from running around."

"I didn't expect..."

He shook his head and said, "My lady ran out of the room tonight and frightened you. I'm very sorry."

Lin Feng smiled and shook his head: "We are a group of grown men, how can we be easily frightened by a girl? Butler Han doesn't need to worry about it."

Seeing Lin Feng say this, Butler Han breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Please come this way."

As he walked, he said: "Our manor is relatively large. You'd better not run around at night, otherwise you will be in trouble if you get lost."

Lin Feng smiled and said: "Don't worry, Butler Han, we will stay here for one night and we won't wander around."

Under the leadership of the housekeeper, the group walked through the corridor and across the covered bridge. They stopped after almost a quarter of an hour.

The housekeeper led Lin Feng and others into a courtyard and said, "This is the wing where the guests live. You can rest here tonight."

Lin Feng looked at the courtyard in front of him. The courtyard was very large and surrounded by rooms. It was indeed enough to accommodate more than 20 of them.

At this time, amid the lightning and thunder, Lin Feng suddenly discovered that there were several donkeys tied to the fence on one side of the yard.

The donkey was carrying several boxes, which looked a little heavy.

Lin Feng asked curiously: "Is there anyone else staying here?"

The housekeeper glanced at the donkey and nodded with a smile: "Yes, about an hour before you, some people came to stay overnight because the road was blocked."

As he spoke, he pointed to the two rooms near the side: "Those are the two rooms, but the candles in their rooms have been extinguished. They must be resting, so we'd better not disturb them."

Lin Feng nodded and said with a smile: "This is natural. We can't disturb people's dreams for no reason."

While talking, Lin Feng and the others entered the yard. Zhao Shiwu led people to tie up the horses, while Lin Feng and Sun Fujia chose a room and walked in.

The room was very spacious and very clean. Lin Feng wiped his fingertips from the table and found no dust at all.

Lin Feng asked curiously: "Do you often have outsiders come to stay here?"

The housekeeper shook his head: "There are actually not many people walking on the road in front of us, and there are even fewer cases where the road is blocked and impassable, so in a month, at most one or two groups of people will come to stay."

Lin Feng nodded.

The housekeeper said: "Everyone, please clean up first. I'll tell the cooks to prepare some ginger soup for you to go away the cold."

Lin Feng said hurriedly: "No need, we are very satisfied with having a place to live, how dare we trouble you like this."

The housekeeper smiled and said, "It's cold in late autumn, and many of your clothes are wet, so don't refuse."

After saying that, without waiting for Lin Feng to speak again, he turned around and left.

Watching the butler leave, Sun Fujia sighed with emotion: "This butler Han is really warm and kind. It can be seen that, as he said, the owner of this villa is indeed philanthropic."

Lin Feng smiled and said, "That's true. I have never met such a hospitable person."

As he spoke, he took off his raincoat and wiped the rain off his face with a handkerchief.

Fortunately, he had been in the carriage and put on his raincoat before getting off, so his clothes were not soaked by the rain.

Lin Feng stretched out and felt that his bones were almost out of place. Every time he took a long-distance carriage, he felt like he was being tortured.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Feng lay down on the bed, just wanting to have a good sleep quickly.

But at this time, as soon as he lay down, he suddenly felt something padding his back.

Lin Feng casually reached under the bed sheet, dug around, and then took out a book from under the bed sheet.

"Book?"

Sun Fujia asked curiously, "Why is there a book under the sheets?"

"The last person who stayed here for the night accidentally ended up here?"

Lin Feng shook his head. He looked at the cover of the book and found that it was a very ordinary and common "The Analects of Confucius".

He opened "The Analects of Confucius" and looked up... Suddenly, his eyes suddenly narrowed.

He was sitting casually, but his back straightened quietly.

Seeing that Lin Feng's expression was wrong, Sun Fujia asked, "What's wrong?"

Lin Feng's eyes flashed slightly and he said slowly: "Mr. Sun, take a look at this book."

With that said, Lin Feng handed the book to Sun Fuga.

Sun Fuga took "The Analects of Confucius" and opened it curiously.

The next moment, Sun Fuga's expression suddenly changed slightly.

His pupils dilated slightly and he almost dropped the book in his hand.

Under the candlelight, I saw that there were four big bloody characters on the first page of the Analects of Confucius.

"There are ghosts."

"Run!"

Four words filled the entire page.

The visual impact is extremely strong.

Sun Fujia took a deep breath, looked at Lin Feng helplessly, and said, "Zide, can't you remind me?"

Lin Feng said with a smile: "I just wanted to see if Dr. Sun would be scared." "Congratulations on getting verified, I almost threw it away."

Sun Fujia was helpless at Lin Feng's bad taste, and his eyes fell on the book page again.

Looking at those four bloody words, Sun Fuga couldn't help but frown and said, "What does this mean?"

"Are you trying to be scary?"

"Or are you reminding us of something?"

Lin Feng shook his head. He pointed to the words on the book and said, "Dr. Sun, do you think this red color is blood?"

Sun Fujia brought the candle closer, looked at it carefully for a moment, and said, "It looks very much like blood, and you can see the thickness of the writing. It doesn't look like it was written with a brush. It doesn't have the rough edges and sharpness of writing with a brush."

"It feels like..." Sun Fujia frowned and thought.

At this time, he heard Lin Feng's voice: "Finger!"

Sun Fujia was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes suddenly lit up. He nodded heavily: "Yes, it was written with fingers."

As he spoke, Sun Fuga put his fingertips on the Analects, gestured, and said, "But the fingers of the person who wrote this character should be thinner than mine."

Lin Feng's eyes flashed slightly and he said slowly: "So, do you think this looks like someone bit off their finger and wrote it specifically on it with their own blood?"

Sun Fuga thought for a while, frowned and said, "This possibility is not low."

"But who would do this? And why write something about ghosts running away?"

"Is this manor haunted?"

As he spoke, Sun Fuga flipped back, but the contents of the other pages were normal. Only the first page had these four bloody words.

Lin Feng stood up, then turned around and looked at the bed.

The quilts on the bed were neatly stacked there, and the sheets were spread evenly.

This "The Analects of Confucius" is placed under the quilt. As long as someone lies here, they will definitely feel it.

He thought for a while and said: "If it was written by someone who stayed here before, and then hid it here... then after the overnight stayer left, it is impossible that the servants of this manor would not find this book when they were making the bed. Book."

"Once the servants find out and see the content on it, they will definitely take it away and will not leave it here to scare the guests behind."

"So it's unlikely that someone who stayed here before put it here."

After listening to Lin Feng's words, Sun Fujia frowned and said: "Indeed, the place where this book is hidden is not secret, and it cannot be hidden from the servants at all... But if it was not left by the person who stayed overnight, then there is only..."

He looked at Lin Feng, his eyes flashing slightly: "There are only people from this manor."

Lin Feng nodded, he and Sun Fujia had the same conclusion.

Sun Fuga was puzzled: "But who in the manor would hide this book here?"

"What's the purpose of putting it here?"

"Why do you write the words "Run away if there is a ghost" written on it?

"Are you reminding us of something? Or are you just trying to scare us?"

At this moment, Lin Feng's brain began to replay everything he encountered and all the pictures he saw after entering the manor.

Suddenly, he seemed to think of something.

He took back "The Analects of Confucius" from Sun Fuga, opened it, and looked back at the bloody and shocking four words on the first page, his eyes full of deep thought.

When Sun Fujia saw Lin Feng acting like this, he knew what Lin Feng might be thinking of, and he was about to ask out of curiosity.

But at this moment, the door was suddenly knocked.

"Guests, our master would like to invite you to have a bowl of tea. Is it convenient?"

The butler's voice came from outside the door.

Sun Fujia looked at Lin Feng, and Lin Feng's eyes flickered slightly. He put "The Analects of Confucius" in his arms, opened the door, looked as usual, and said to the housekeeper with a smile: "We came unexpectedly to disturb your noble master. We shouldn't. We should go visit your master, and now your master invites us to come and have tea, how can we refuse?"

The housekeeper smiled and said: "I am worried that you are too tired and will disturb your rest."

Lin Feng shook his head: "We still need a while to rest."

The butler nodded: "Please."

Lin Feng said: "Can I bring a brother with me? We have always been the three of us. If we don't bring him with us and let him know that we went to drink tea secretly, I'm afraid he will lose his temper with me when we come back."

The housekeeper smiled quickly; "Of course you can."

Lin Feng nodded slightly, went directly to the next room, and called out his patron saint Zhao Shiwu.

The housekeeper looked at Zhao Shiwu's muscular appearance and admired, "This guest is really tall and strong, so he must be quite skilled in martial arts, right?"

Before Zhao Shiwu could answer, Lin Feng smiled and said: "He doesn't know any martial arts. He has a lot of strength and usually only does farm work. He doesn't know how to fight with others."

Zhao Shiwu glanced at Lin Feng in surprise, but when he saw Lin Feng say this, he scratched his head and nodded honestly.

Sun Fujia narrowed his eyes and quickly understood what Lin Feng meant.

The shocking bloody words in "The Analects of Confucius" will always make people unable to feel completely at ease until they are clarified. Now it is safer to be more careful and not to expose all the details easily.

As Lin Feng walked, he said casually: "Steward Han, I wonder what your master's name is? This is our first time walking this road. We really don't know the identity of your master. We don't know how to call your master later."

The housekeeper smiled and said: "My surname is Gao and my name is Deshang. I read some books when I was young and took part in the imperial examination many times during the Wude years. However, I failed in the imperial examination many times. I also happened to know my life experience and inherited this manor, so I Stayed here forever.”

"Oh?"

Lin Feng raised his eyebrows slightly: "Master Gao didn't know his life experience before?"

The housekeeper sighed: "The master was separated from his parents when he was a child. Kind-hearted people adopted him and helped him study... It is for this reason that the master is grateful and willing to give."

"When the master failed in many tests and was depressed, he accidentally recognized his parents based on the birthmark and a jade pendant on his body."

"It's a pity that not long after, the master's parents passed away one after another, and the manor was inherited by the master."

Lin Feng nodded: "That's it."

While talking, everyone came to the back hall.

As soon as you arrive at the door, you can hear the sound of silk and bamboo coming from the back hall.

The butler said: "I usually like to watch maiko dance, I hope you can understand."

Lin Feng smiled and said: "This is not a bad habit, why don't you understand it?"

After all, he also likes to watch the little sister dance.

The butler nodded and opened the door.

Lin Feng saw the bright lights in the spacious back hall.

Sitting on the main seat was a man in his forties, dressed in fine clothes.

He is slightly chubby, has big ears, a flat nose, and is not that handsome.

At this time, he was shaking his head and looking ahead with a contented expression.

In front of him, there was a plush carpet on the ground.

At the four corners of the carpet, there are lion-shaped incense burners pressing on them. There are curls of incense rising from the incense burners. The four lions have different shapes. Some are showing their teeth and claws, some are grabbing balls, some are roaring in the mountains, and some are roaring in the mountains. Lazily lying down and taking a nap is so lifelike.

On the carpet, several graceful maikos were showing their waists and dancing to their heart's content.

Classical dance is full of aura and artistic conception. Even a rough guy like Lin Feng who doesn't know how to dance finds it very eye-catching.

At this moment, two lines of Qin Taoyu's poems couldn't help but appear in his mind.

"Lichen calms the horns of lions, and hooks and embroideries on the curtain and forehead ward off evil spirits.

According to the song of Che Qing, the sky is not yet dawn, and the drink is still leaking back to the deep courtyard. "

Now that I think about it, this poem is really realistic.

Seeing Lin Feng and others arriving, Gao Deshang sat upright, waved his hand, and turned away the dancers.

Soon, the spacious back hall was filled with the delicious scent of rouge from the maiko's body.

Lin Feng and the other three came to the front of the hall, raised their hands to Gao Deshang and said, "Thank you, Mr. Gao, for letting us stay overnight. We are very grateful."

Gao Deshang laughed heartily and said: "It is convenient for others and it is convenient for yourself. I have been helped by many people in the past, so now I also help others. I only hope that this kind of kindness can continue to spread." , so that more people are willing to show kindness to each other, in this case, I believe the world will be warmer."

Zhao Shiwu couldn't help but widen his eyes after listening to Gao Deshang's words, and looked at Gao Deshang with full respect.

He felt that he was so noble and a moral model.

Lin Feng also showed admiration, cupped his hands and said, "Master Gao is kind-hearted and broad-minded. We admire him."

Gao Deshang smiled and waved his hand, and said: "Guests, there is no need to be polite. Please take a seat quickly."

Lin Feng and others will naturally not be polite.

After taking their seats, Gao Deshang personally made tea for Lin Feng and others.

Tea in the Tang Dynasty was different from tea in later generations.

In the Tang Dynasty, tea cakes were used instead of tea leaves.

Before making tea, you need to bake the tea cakes on a charcoal stove. After baking, put the tea into a tea grinder and crush the tea leaves with a spindle.

Afterwards, a fine sieve is used to sift out the tea, which can then be boiled with water.

But boiling water doesn’t happen overnight.

It needs to go through three boils.

When it boils, the water will form fish-eye bubbles.

The second boil, the springs are flowing.

Three boils, soaring and making waves.

At the same time, between making tea, you also need to add salt, pepper and other seasonings to the tea according to your preference, so the tea at this time is more like a dish.

Lin Feng looked at Gao Deshang's smooth tea-making movements and said with a smile: "Does Mr. Gao often go to the temple?"

Gao Deshang paused slightly and asked in confusion: "Why did the guest say that?"

Lin Feng smiled and said: "I'm just talking casually... Because Master Gao's method of making tea is very similar to that of the masters in the Zen temple, that's why I made such a guess."

The Tang Dynasty was a watershed in tea culture.

Before the Tang Dynasty, tea was mainly consumed through boiling tea leaves or chewing tea leaves directly.

After the Tang Dynasty, there was a complete tea-making process, and tea culture was accumulated.

Gao Deshang's tea-making method became completely popular among the people in the middle and late Tang Dynasty.

However, in the early Tang Dynasty, this method of making tea was not fully popularized. Only monks in Zen monasteries and high-ranking officials and nobles had this method of making tea. Ordinary people and the rich still drank tea in a crude way. Even if you learn a little bit of the method, you won't get the essence, and you won't be able to practice it as fluently as Gao Deshang.

Gao Deshang is just a scholar who has failed many times. He still lives in this villa deep in the mountains and forests. He has few opportunities to interact with the high-ranking officials and nobles in Chang'an. Even if he can contact them, those high-ranking officials and nobles may not be willing to make tea for him in person, so He was able to learn this method of making tea, and Lin Feng felt that he learned it from the temple.

Gao Deshang nodded: "That's it."

"But I don't believe in Buddhism and I haven't been to temples very often. I learned how to make tea from other friends..."

As he spoke, he poured tea into cups for Lin Feng and others, and said with a smile: "Try the tea I have here, how does it taste?"

Lin Feng took the tea cup, smelled it gently, and praised: "The taste is very honest, and it looks like good tea at first glance."

Gao Deshang laughed.

He seemed to like being praised very much. Gao Deshang took a sip of tea, then looked at Lin Feng and asked curiously: "I wonder where all the guests are from? How come you are traveling all night in this heavy rain?"

Lin Feng sighed: "To be honest with Mr. Gao, we are originally from Zheng County. Our family ran some small businesses and barely made ends meet. This time we were going to Lantian County to pick up a batch of goods, so we temporarily found some people to help. I thought of hurrying on my way and receiving the goods."

"But who knew, I couldn't make it in a hurry, but encountered falling rocks blocking the road. I had no choice but to come and stay at Mr. Gao's place."

Gao Deshang nodded and said with emotion: "It's not easy for you to run back and forth for a few coins."

Lin Feng smiled bitterly and said, "Who has it easy?"

"That's true."

Gao Deshang put down his tea cup, glanced at the sky outside, and said: "Since you have been running all the way, I will not delay your rest time. You can rest assured and have a good rest. After the rain stops tomorrow, I will ask my servants to help you." Go deal with the falling rocks on the road so that you can leave early."

Putting down the tea cup means ending the conversation.

This point is the same in ancient and modern times.

Lin Feng and Sun Fujia also put down their teacups and were about to stand up to leave.

But right now.

A servant suddenly rushed in in panic.

As he ran, he hurriedly said: "Master, it's not good, someone committed suicide by jumping into the lake, and the others -"

Before he finished speaking, his eyes caught sight of Lin Feng and the other three, and his voice stopped abruptly.

Zhao Shiwu stood up quickly, with a surprised look on his face, and said, "What did you say? Someone committed suicide by jumping into the lake?"

Lin Feng and Sun Fujia looked at each other, their brows furrowed slightly, and they looked at Gao Deshang.

Gao Deshang frowned and asked quickly: "What's going on? Who committed suicide?"

The servant hesitated for a moment and said: "Not long ago, Zhang Jiu suddenly seemed to have gone crazy. He rushed out of the room for no reason, and then plunged into the lake opposite. We couldn't stop him."

"By the time we rescued him, he was already out of breath."

"Zhang Jiu?" Gao Deshang looked ugly. He stood up, looked at Lin Feng and Sun Fujia, and said, "Some accidents happened in our manor. I need to go take a look, so I won't accompany you."

Lin Feng heard this and said directly: "Master Gao, you don't have to worry about us. Life and death are important. Go and have a look."

Seeing this, Gao Deshang nodded directly and said, "Okay, you can do as you please."

After saying that, he followed the servant and left quickly.

Sun Fujia looked at Lin Feng and said, "Zide, what should I do?"

Lin Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Gao Deshang's leaving figure, and said: "As a prison officer, how can you ignore someone who is dead? Let's go and have a look."

Sun Fujia also meant this.

The two followed Gao Deshang and walked out.

They were walking from room to room, and just as they passed a door.

bang!
Suddenly, the door was opened.

Sun Fujia looked subconsciously.

A woman with disheveled hair rushed out, crying and laughing, and ran directly into Lin Feng's arms.

Lin Feng straightened her up, and Sun Fujia discovered at this moment that this woman was the woman with brain problems who was squatting on the rockery when she first entered the manor.

I saw this woman looking at Lin Feng with dark eyes. She clasped Lin Feng's arms tightly with both hands, tears streaming from her eyes, but the corners of her mouth raised a strange arc.

She cried and laughed: "The ghosts are here to arrest people. Someone has entered the underworld. Haha, the ghosts are here!"

"Next, you're next!"

She pointed at Lin Feng.

But suddenly, his eyes moved to Sun Fujia again, as if he saw something terrifying. He pointed at Sun Fujia and kept retreating, screaming violently: "No! It's you! The ghost's next target is you!"

"It's you, you're going to the underworld!"

Sun Fujia's pupils shrank, and his scalp immediately became numb.
