Chapter 55 There are so many people
If it were in the past, Zhan Beiyuan would definitely not believe what Jiang Yunxi said, but after following her recently and seeing how much she has done, he believes that she is capable.
Since she felt that Dong's husband was not dead, it was possible that he was not dead, but why did Dong say that he was dead?
The three of them returned to Prince Han's Mansion first.
After all, it's just digging a grave, and they don't know how long it will take to finish digging.
Zhan Beiyuan ordered Qi Yan to take his men and tools with him.
Outside the capital.
Based on the information he had obtained, Jiang Jingyan led everyone into the mountains.
"Sister, you said you would give me a gift when you succeed. What do you plan to give me?" Jiang Jingyan asked as they walked, feeling particularly excited.
"I'll tell you after we dig the grave." Jiang Yunxi kept the secret on purpose.
"Okay." Jiang Jingyan looked very happy. Once he got the gift, he would show off at home tomorrow.
Although it was not yet midnight, the mountains were unusually quiet.
Qi Yan led his men and walked in front with torches. Apart from the sound of their footsteps, there was no other sound.
Sudden.
A cold wind blew by.
Jiang Jingyan only felt a chill on his back, and his eyes scanned around vigilantly. Then he remembered that his sister was a member of the Xuanmen, and immediately the fear disappeared.
As everyone walked into the mountains, they soon saw a mountain of graves.
Jiang Jingyan thought he was very brave, but when he looked at the tombstones, he was still quite scared and hid directly behind Jiang Yunxi.
"What are you doing?" Jiang Yunxi looked at him in confusion.
"This place looks a bit creepy." Jiang Jingyan spoke the truth. He didn't dare to show off at all at this time. It was his first time to come to the cemetery late at night.
Jiang Yunxi looked at him with a smile, "Afraid?"
Jiang Jingyan looked embarrassed, "A little bit."
"Then I'll give you a gift now so you won't be scared." Jiang Yunxi said with a smile.
"Okay, okay, please give it to him soon." Jiang Jingyan's face was full of anticipation. Was she going to give him a magical weapon to protect himself?
Jiang Yunxi bit her finger and pressed it between his eyebrows.
Jiang Jingyan was confused. What was she doing?
Zhan Beiyuan: "..."
Is this the gift she gave?
He was looking forward to Jiang Jingyan's next reaction.
"Okay." Jiang Yunxi withdrew her finger. The blood she pressed on his brow had already seeped in.
"Ah, what did you send... So many people, why are there so many people suddenly, and walking around in the cemetery, aren't they scared?"
Jiang Jingyan looked at the scene not far away, confused and bewildered.
etc.
Something seems wrong.
They are not human.
"Ahhh, ghosts, so many of them..." Jiang Jingyan was so scared that he was shaking. He immediately hid behind Jiang Yunxi, grabbing her clothes tightly with both hands.
Zhan Beiyuan looked at his reaction and inexplicably wanted to laugh.
She is quite good at playing tricks on people, and she even doesn't let her own brother go.
Jiang Yunxi smiled harmlessly and said, "If you're not afraid, then fight poison with poison. Look at them more and you won't be afraid anymore. This is my gift to you."
"Can I change it?" Jiang Jingyan was about to cry.
"It can't be changed." Jiang Yunxi refused mercilessly.
Jiang Jingyan said with a sad face, "Can I not have the gift?"
"There's no reason to take back a gift once it's given away." Jiang Yunxi refused again.
Jiang Jingyan: “…”
Oh, oh, oh, he wants to cry!
"Look at them carefully. They are not looking at us at all. As long as you don't provoke them, they won't provoke us." Jiang Yunxi hopes he can overcome it.
Jiang Jingyan looked up and it seemed like they really didn't look at them.
Some were eating offerings in front of the grave, some were exercising, some were playing chess together, some were gambling, and some were chatting together. It was very lively.
"Looking at it this way, it really doesn't seem that scary."
"Sometimes human hearts are scarier than them. Of course, they also have scary things. If you carry this talisman with you, they won't be able to get close to you." Jiang Yunxi took out a golden talisman from his sleeve pocket and gave it to him.
Jiang Jingyan quickly took it and held it tightly, as if he had taken a reassurance pill.
Jiang Yunxi continued to walk forward.
Soon, they found the tomb of Dong's husband. There was a tombstone with her husband's name on it - Cheng Zimo.
"Do we really want to dig it? What if her husband is buried here? Wouldn't that be too offensive?" Jiang Jingyan looked at the tombstone and said hesitantly. After all, they were digging someone else's grave.
"How about we make a bet? I bet it's empty." Jiang Yunxi said confidently.
"I also bet that the loss will be in vain." Zhan Beiyuan said without hesitation. Perhaps it was because he had been with her for some time and had some understanding of her character.
She would never dig up someone else's grave for no reason, as that would be immoral.
Her character wouldn't allow her to do that.
So the coffin must be empty.
Jiang Jingyan's eyes widened and he screamed, "I won't gamble anymore! If I lose, I'll have to pay two stakes. I won't gamble anymore! I absolutely won't gamble!"
He doesn't want to be taken advantage of!
I can lose to my sister, but I can’t lose to Zhan Beiyuan!
Jiang Yunxi: “…”
Zhan Beiyuan: "..."
"You guys do it." Zhan Beiyuan looked at Qi Yan and said.
Qi Yan immediately took several guards and started digging the grave.
"Sister, they are moving, they are all looking at us." After meeting so many pairs of eyes, Jiang Jingyan was still a little scared and hid behind Jiang Yunxi again.
Jiang Yunxi glanced at them calmly and said, "Don't worry about them, they won't come."
"Oh." Jiang Jingyan's tense body slowly relaxed, but he couldn't help but look at them. He looked for a moment, then looked away, and then looked again.
Jiang Yunxi: “…”
This is a typical case of being cowardly but loving to watch.
A moment later.
Qi Yan and others dug up Cheng Zimo's grave and opened the coffin directly, which was stuffed full of clothes and quilts.
"Ah, is there someone down there? Otherwise, why would there be so many things?" Jiang Jingyan didn't dare to get too close, always afraid of seeing something he shouldn't see.
"Take those things out." Zhan Beiyuan said.
Qi Yan took the guards and quickly got it done.
After taking out all the things, there was nothing inside, no body at all.
Jiang Jingyan's eyes widened in shock. "No one, no one! I've asked around, and the people around here say Dong's husband is dead. Where's the body?"
Zhan Beiyuan's face gradually darkened. "Even if Cheng Zimo died half a year ago, it's impossible for him to decay so quickly. Even if he did, it doesn't look like he's decayed inside."
"There is no corpse here at all." Jiang Yunxi said very confidently.
"Mrs. Dong said the other day that her husband passed away half a year ago. What's the situation now? Could it be that someone is trying to steal the body?" Jiang Jingyan's mouth twitched violently.
Jiang Yunxi didn't say anything, but walked closer to the coffin, looked at it carefully, and then said: "No one stole the body. There was no one in the coffin when it was buried."
That's right.
She had just checked and saw that the coffin had been nailed shut and there was no sign of it being opened.
Where is Dong’s husband?
