Chapter 410 You Dare to Hide! You Evil Creature!
Chapter 410 You Dare to Hide! You Evil Creature!
Si He said nothing more and went back to her room to pack her things. Although she only had a few sets of clothes, when she came out, she heard him say, "Something has happened in the Guo family these days. If you don't have anyone around you, you can take these two maids with you. They are quite good at martial arts."
He seemed to be simply offering her help and directly told her the details of the two maids.
Si He glanced at the maid beside her, then a smile appeared on the corner of her lips, and she looked at Yue Fuqi, "Okay."
She didn't thank him again and just considered that they were even.
No matter what his intention was in keeping someone around, he was indeed useful. At least he could deal with the Guo family's troubles, so she didn't have to worry about it anymore.
Upon hearing this, the two maids hurriedly packed their things and followed their master's instructions.
Si He stood at the door and waited for a while.
He then asked, "Aren't you curious about what happened to the Guo family?"
She casually asked, "What happened to the Guo family?"
Seeing her nonchalant expression, he became even more certain that she was involved in the Guo family's affairs. However, he still replied, "The night you left the Guo family, an evil spirit arose, causing unrest in the family. It's said that many servants died that night. A sorcerer was later hired to exorcise the evil spirit, but over the past few days, many people have continued to be possessed and go mad."
As he spoke, he paid attention to her expression, as if trying to find a clue from her face. Unfortunately, she also seemed a little surprised by the development of the matter.
Indeed, when she heard him say this, she raised her eyebrows. She didn't expect that the remnant soul had actually killed so many people and caused such a big commotion.
Moreover, with the help of the wizard, it can continue to cause trouble. It is much more capable than before. I don’t know whether it has listened to her advice before and killed innocent people indiscriminately.
Now that many days have passed, I still don’t know what its condition is.
The reason why she helped it one after another was not simply because she felt pity for it, nor was it just because she wanted to solve the problem of Hongdou, but more because she wanted to use it to divert the attention of the Guo family so that they would not focus their attention on her.
Suddenly, she found herself becoming more and more cold-blooded. When doing many things, she would first consider whether they were useful. Advising it might just be a little comfort to her conscience.
She lowered her eyes and thought for a while, until the two maids came over with the bundles on their backs. She collected her thoughts and looked at him again and said, "Also, the concubine of the Guo family who 'disappeared' with you has returned to the Guo family today."
Guo Jiayu?
Si Heduo asked, "Did she reply on her own initiative?"
Since he knew about the Guo family's feelings, it meant that they had sent people to keep an eye on them, and he should be able to know more details.
Sure enough, he said, "Yes."
"Thanks for letting me know."
"You're welcome."
She smiled lightly and said nothing more, then walked out, followed closely by her two maids.
Outside the courtyard, a carriage had been arranged, and Yue Fuqi asked the driver to take her to the Guo family.
Watching the carriage leave, the smile on Yue Fuqi's face gradually faded, and his eyes deepened slightly.
He didn't look away until the carriage disappeared into the alley. He said to the two servants behind him, "Keep an eye on the Guo family. Report any movement immediately."
"Yes." The two servants responded in unison and walked out.
In the future, her identity might change, so naturally we have to send two more people to keep an eye on her.
……
The carriage slowly passed through the long street. People were coming and going on the street, and the voices were noisy and lively. Some of them were still talking about what had happened in the city in the past few days.
Si He sat quietly in the carriage, as if she didn't hear anything.
When we arrived at the gate of the Guo family, we saw some passers-by, occasionally looking at the gate of the Guo family, whispering to each other as they walked.
At this time, everything seemed normal in the Guo family.
After the coachman stopped the car, he went to the door to inform the gatekeeper. The gatekeeper was very surprised to hear that the missing Ninth Miss had returned, but he quickly opened the side door, invited her in, and asked other servants to inform the mistress.
Si He got off the carriage with the help of her maid Gao You, while another maid Gao Zi followed behind with a bundle.
The two maids were sisters, originally surnamed Gao. It was said that when Yue Fuqi was giving names to them, there was a pomelo in the hall, so he casually gave them simple and easy-to-remember names, Gao You and Gao Zi.
The elder sister Gao Youfang is seventeen years old and the younger sister Gao Zi is sixteen. They have ordinary looks and are not very old, but they are good at kung fu.
When Si He got off the carriage and touched Gao You's arm, she had some understanding of her. Her hands were strong and her lower body was very stable. When she supported him, she didn't move at all, which gave people a sense of security. To have such a foundation, one must at least be trained since childhood.
Moreover, she has a lot of calluses on her hands. From all the details, it can be seen that both of them have a good foundation in martial arts.
If Si He had not taken advantage of her lightness skills and fought with her bare hands, she might not have been able to defeat the two of them.
She was able to easily kill Wei Xiaohu's men before. Firstly, those people might not be as good as these two girls. Secondly, she also took advantage of the convenience of darkness.
Si He lowered her eyes slightly and walked towards the Guo family thoughtfully.
After entering the Guo family's house, the housekeeper came out personally and took her to the front hall.
The servants along the way looked at her subtly with complicated expressions, but after they politely bowed to her, they retreated quietly.
The Guo family looked normal from the outside, but once you entered the front yard, you could see talismans pasted everywhere, though the locations were rather hidden.
Some are pasted on the pillars under the eaves, but they are blocked by lanterns. If the lanterns are not blown by the wind and shake gently, the talisman paper will not be revealed.
Some are posted in the dark places under the eaves, and can only be seen by standing below and looking up.
Perhaps there are even more places like this. The servants around still seem a little trembling with fear. They all have a red rope tied around their necks, and there seems to be something hanging on the red rope, but it is covered by clothes and cannot be seen. But it is not difficult to guess what it is.
Si He just glanced at him lightly and then looked away.
At this time, the front hall was already filled with many people, and the atmosphere was tense. Most of the female members of the Guo family were there, and the only male present was the eldest uncle of the main house, Guo Jiaqu's father, and several brothers, both legitimate and illegitimate.
In the hall, there was a girl kneeling. She was curled up with her head buried low, as if she was crying quietly.
Looking at the back and hearing the voice, Si He knew that the person was Guo Jiayu.
There were some broken cups and a puddle of water on the ground.
Judging from the scene, it seems that the time for returning to the lively atmosphere is right.
However, as soon as Si He stepped into the front hall, the old lady sitting on the main seat threw a cup at him and shouted angrily: "How dare you come back!"
Si He dodged the cup. Gao Zi behind her also reacted quickly and immediately stepped aside to avoid accidental injury.
"Snapped!"
The cup fell on the threshold with a loud noise and broke into several pieces, adding to the mess on the ground.
When the old lady saw that she dared to hide, she became even more furious, her chest heaving with anger. The nanny beside her hurried forward to comfort her.
"How dare you hide! You evil creature!"
