Song Wuya looked left and right, and saw a vegetable vendor not far away, so he walked over.
"Boss, I want to ask you something." Song Wuya asked: "There used to be a big family named Chen in this city, do you know how they got there?"
"The Chen family? Which Chen family are you talking about?" The man looked at Song Wuya in confusion after hearing this, and after a slight pause, he suddenly said, "You are not looking for that Chen family whose family has been ransacked." home?"
"The whole family was copied and killed?" Song Wuya pretended to be surprised after hearing this: "How could the whole family be copied and killed?"
"Collaborating with traitors, that's why they were all executed!" the vendor said indifferently.
"Please show me the way." Song Wuya asked the man with sadness on his face.
Seeing Song Wuya's expression, the vendor also frowned and said, "Could it be that the young master is a member of the Chen family?"
"My acquaintance with Chen Weimin, son of the Chen family, happened to be passing by here, so I came to visit. I never thought that such a thing would happen to the Chen family." Song Wuya explained.
Chapter 22 Chen Family Old Courtyard
?Chapter 22 Chen Family Old Courtyard
The vendor seemed suspicious of Song Wuya at first, but after Song Wuya said that, regret appeared on his face.
"The courtyard of the Chen family is in the west of the city. Walking all the way to the west, there is a separate courtyard that has been vacant for many years." The vendor told Song Wuya the location of the Chen family, but after he finished speaking, he added: "They are Slashing all over the house! Now that everyone is gone, what are you going to do, don't get into trouble!"
"Hey!" Song Wuya sighed when he heard this: "After all, he is an old friend, and it is still necessary to offer incense."
After saying this, Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo didn't stop, and went directly towards the west of the city.
"Brother Wu Ya, this Chen family has been ransacked and killed for colluding with the Wuliang Sect. Maybe the government is still watching there. We are afraid that we will be targeted by them in this way." Bai Zhuo said worriedly.
After more than a year, it is hard to know whether the government has such patience.
After all, it was Guanshan Restaurant that destroyed the Chen family, and Guanshan Restaurant knew very well that the Chen family was backed by Wuliangjiao.If they want to deal with Wuliangjiao, they will inevitably continue to stare at Wuliangjiao.
However, Song Wuya felt that they did not have such patience, and doing so might not be able to find traces of Wuliangjiao.
"Brother Bai, I don't think so. This Guanshan restaurant has already wiped out the Chen family. Do you still think that Wuliangjiao will have contact with the Chen family again? What's the use of them staring at the old courtyard of the Chen family?"
"Well, no matter what, it doesn't matter if you are targeted by the government. When the time comes, let's see who the magistrate is." Hearing Song Wuya's words, Bai Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief.
The two walked along the street and soon came to the west of the city.
Sure enough, I saw a single courtyard in the west of the city.The courtyard is very grand, but it is no longer prosperous.There is only a shelf left of the lantern hanging at the door.Even the vermilion gate has become mottled, and no one has painted the vermilion paint on it.
Looking at the Chen family's yard from a distance, Song Wuya took a deep breath.
"The Chen family has indeed been brilliant for a while in the past, so it seems that it is really comparable to the Chu family in Huai'an Mansion." Song Wuya looked at the yard and said, "It's just that it's been more than a year. The yard is still in a panic, and the government has not said that it will be sold."
"Brother Wu Ya, aren't you joking?" Bai Zhuo was amused when he heard this. "The people in this yard are all dead. It's bad luck to just kill everyone. No one would buy this kind of yard. I'm afraid it will continue to be abandoned in the future."
This is true, Song Wuya didn't take this into consideration.Even in his original era, there were feudal superstitions, let alone in this ancient time.
He didn't say anything else, and walked towards the front of Chen's house.
When they came to the front of Chen's house, the eyes of the people around them all turned to the two of them.
"Brother Wu Ya, we suddenly became the focus." Bai Zhuo noticed this and reminded Song Wu Ya.
Song Wuya ignored this, but went directly to the gate.He stretched out his hand and pushed towards the door. The heavy door creaked, but there was a seal on it, and there was no change except for the dust on his hands.
"Brother Wu Ya, I think we should leave quickly! Look at the eyes of the people around here."
Bai Zhuo said something again, and Song Wuya turned around.Turning his head, he found that the eyes of the people all around were focused on the two of them.Looking at the two of them one by one, they were still pointing and discussing something.
The fate of the Chen family is very clear to the people of Yingtian Mansion. At this moment, they suddenly saw that two years clearly came to the door of the Chen family. It is hard not to be curious.After all, in their view, the old Chen family courtyard was like a ghost house, and it was too late for others to avoid it, so how could anyone approach it on their own initiative.
Being watched by so many people is really not a good thing.Song Wuya left the main entrance of Chen's house and continued walking along the wall.
Not long after, the two came to the back door, which, like the front door, was also sealed and covered with dust.
Without staying too much, the two continued to walk, circled around the Chen's house, and returned to the main entrance.
The people gathered around did not disperse, they were still discussing something, seeing the two people coming back again, they looked at them again.
"Hey! Boys over there, what are you doing here!"
Just as he was about to avoid these people, he suddenly heard an old man shouting from his side.
Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo immediately turned their heads and looked in the direction of the voice.
An old man with a stooped back was frowning at them.
"Oh, old man, it's nothing. We are going to buy a yard in the city. I heard that there is a big yard here, so come and have a look." Naturally, Song Wuya wanted to find a suitable excuse, or else the words would not Unreasonable.
When the old man heard this, he anxiously dissuaded him: "If you want to buy a house, go elsewhere! Why did you choose this ghost house?"
"Haunted house?" Song Wuya pretended to be surprised, looked at the old man and asked doubtfully, "Old man, could it be that this yard is haunted by ghosts?"
"It's not just haunted! Do you know why this yard is empty?" the old man said, looking at them seriously.
Song Wuya naturally knew this, but at this time, when it came to this point, he naturally had to pretend that he didn't know.
"I've never heard of this, and I haven't asked in detail."
Hearing this, the old man sighed heavily: "Hey! You brats, you are really rough in doing things. If you want to buy a house, you don't even ask what kind of house it is. The family name is Chen. It was originally one of the most wealthy families in Yingtian Mansion. Unexpectedly, just over a year ago, the government found out that the Chen family had colluded with the traitor Wuliangjiao, and directly arrested the entire Chen family, and sentenced a whole family to be executed. The courtyard of the Chen family also suddenly became vacant. Who would call for such an extinct house to move in? No one inquired about the government’s suspension. Not only that, but I heard from the police that this house is haunted.”
"What's the matter with this haunting?" Song Wuya felt that there must be something wrong when he heard this, so he asked immediately.
The old man didn't hide it from them, and said directly: "Da Geng once saw ghosts flashing on the wall of this courtyard, and there were very scary voices coming from inside."
It turns out that the haunting that the old man said is this.Hearing this, Song Wuya felt that there must be something wrong in the yard.
His expression became serious all of a sudden, it was obviously not an easy task to find traces of Wuliangjiao in Yingtian Mansion.But what the old man said just now made him guess that maybe the killers of the Wuliang Sect Dark Night Hall are hiding in this yard.
After all, this yard is already idle, and no one dares to ask, and no one even dares to approach it. It is definitely an excellent place to hide.
"Where is the man?"
While thinking about this matter in his heart, there was a sudden burst of chaotic footsteps not far behind him.Song Wuya just reacted and looked up when he heard a shout.
Looking up, there was a team of yamen servants in front of him.
The words just now were yelled out by the chief yamen servant, and a thin man followed beside him, pointing at Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo.
The team of yamen servants came directly towards the two of them, Bai Zhuo became anxious all of a sudden.
"Brother Wu Ya, we are being targeted."
"Don't worry, brother Bai, we still have guards, so don't worry." Song Wuya said calmly without any panic.
