Chapter 241 The Haunted Mansion

? "ah"

Late at night, a harsh scream suddenly sounded in the garden behind the Raoan Hou Mansion without any warning, awakening countless sleeping people.

Jiang Yu raised half of his body from the bed and frowned and said, "What happened?"

Yan Lingji stretched out a slender and fair arm from the quilt, and lighted his fingers, and a flame lit up at his fingertips, igniting all the candlelight in the room.

"It seems to be a sound from the backyard." Yan Lingji said in confusion.

Jiang Yu pulled the quilt away, walked out of bed, and said in a deep voice: "I'll go out and see, you're waiting for me in the house."

"ah!!!"

Yan Lingji walked to the clothes hanger and was about to pick up her clothes to change Jiang Yu, but suddenly screamed and covered her mouth and exclaimed: "Mr. Marquis, come here quickly!"

"What's wrong?" Jiang Qi quickly walked to Yan Lingji's side and looked in the direction of Yan Lingji's gaze. He saw that behind a purple brocade robe, a bright red blood mark was clearly visible.

Jiang Qi frowned slightly and said coldly: "Who is the one who is making trouble? How dare you make trouble in my house?"

Yan Lingji gave Jiang Xi a blank look, without any fear in her expression, and said coquettishly: "Okay, there are no outsiders here."

Jiang Xi shrugged, gently hugged Yan Lingji's shoulders, and said softly: "Wait for me for a while!"

"Yeah!" Yan Lingji nodded.

When he pushed open the door, a large number of soldiers had gathered outside. Jiang Xu looked around for a while, and finally stopped on Wang Hu and asked in a deep voice: "What happened outside? Who actually screamed late at night?"

Wang Hu stepped forward and bowed, "Mr. Marquis, are you okay?"

Jiang Xi waved his hand and said, "I'm fine!"

Wang Huhui reported: "The last generation has sent someone to the backyard to investigate, and I believe someone will report the situation soon."

"Backyard?" Jiang Xu's eyes were slightly deeper and he said coldly: "Let's go! Come and take a look!"

"Yes!" Wang Hu received the order.

When he walked to the back garden, Jiang Yu found a large group of people gathered around and were talking, with a look of horror on his face and a deep fear of speaking.

"What's going on? Wang Hu, come and ask." Jiang Xu said.

"yes!"

Wang Hu walked to the crowd and lined up everyone. He looked up and didn't know what he saw. His whole body suddenly shook, pointed to the front and said tremblingly: "What is that?"

"General Wang Wang, there are ghosts!" A soldier saw Wang Hu and quickly reported.

Jiang Yu walked forward and saw a bloody handprint on a wall in the back garden, and around the blood handprints, green ghost fires burned.

Jiang Yu shouted coldly: "Who was screaming just now?"

Upon hearing this, a soldier hurriedly reported: "When the Marquis returned to the Marquis, the man was the maid of Tonight's Ye. He had fainted. Just now, Bei Zhi saw a figure under the wall. After a few flashes, he suddenly disappeared. Marquis, you said, is that figure a ghost?"

"Nonsense! There are no ghosts in this world?" Jiang Xu shouted in dissatisfaction.

Wang Hu asked after hearing this, "Where did you see the figure?"

The soldier pointed at a place and reported: "It's right there."

Wang Hu waved his hand and said, "Come on, dig up there!"

Several soldiers took tools and went forward to dig the ground. Just as they dug it to half a meter deep, a human skeleton was clearly visible.

"Ghost is a ghost!"

"Hazed!"

"Whose bone is this? It's actually buried in the backyard of the Hou Mansion?"

"Wang Hu!" Jiang Xu shouted.

"The last one is here!" Wang Hu said with his fists.

Jiang Xi ordered: "I ordered everyone to go back to sleep, keep the scene intact, and do not move randomly. If you pass the order, you will not be spread today. Those who violate the order will be severely punished!"

Wang Hu took the order and said, "Yes!"

"By the way!" Jiang Xi continued: "Let your personal guards strictly guard the Marquis' Mansion. Before dawn, no one is allowed to act without my order."

"Tomorrow morning, call everyone in the mansion to the front yard, and I want to ask myself!"

"yes!"

In Yan Lingji's boudoir, Jiang Yu sat behind the desk and was burying his head to write something.

Yan Lingji walked behind Jiang Xi and said in confusion: "Do you think those people will be fooled?"

Jiang Xi thought for a while and said, "It probably won't be!"

Yan Lingji laughed at him and said, "Then you will arrange a haunted drama, and no one will be fooled. What's the use of this farce tonight?"

Jiang Qi smiled and said, "Some people will still jump in even if they know there is a trap ahead. Do you know why this is?"

Yan Lingji smiled with her lips and wrapped her hands around her body, "There must be things that attract prey in the trap set by the hunter. What you mean is that there is something that the other party wants in the marquis' mansion, so even if they know that this is a trap you set, they will definitely be fooled?"

Jiang Xi nodded and said, "Maybe!"

Since we have guessed that the group of people during the day today is not the craftsman camp, but Jiang Yu or the Marquis' Mansion, then using these two as bait will definitely attract the other party.

The biggest characteristic of some smart people is that they often think that they are the smartest people in the world.

Jiang Yu himself has this little problem, so he understands the hearts of such people better.

But unlike others, Jiang Yan cares more about his life, so Jiang Yan is more cautious than anyone else.

And this time the opponent may be a desperate person.

A little clever outlaw is actually no different from Linglong's group of people. He looks great on the outside, but it is actually easy to deal with.

Yan Lingji raised her eyebrows, leaned close to Jiang Xi, and whispered: "Do you need my help?"

Jiang Qi smiled and said, "No, it's just a group of young thieves. They just hide their heads and tails, and they can't catch them now. But as long as they grasp the other party's flaws, it's easy to deal with them."

Yan Lingji smiled slightly and said, "I just think it's very interesting. How many viewers will this haunted scene attract?"

Jiang Yu closed the bamboo slips written on it and smiled and said, "Ha! Let's wait and see tomorrow!"

Yan Lingji said: "Then do you agree to my help?"

Jiang Yu shook his head gently, turned around and hugged Yan Lingji, and smiled and said, "If you find it interesting, just watch it from the side, just think it's a big show."

Yan Lingji fell into Jiang Xi's arms and whispered: "Okay then!"

Jiang Yu gently stroked Yan Lingji's hair and said, "I know you have martial arts skills and want to help me. If you really feel that you are doing nothing in the mansion, you can read more books on strategy and help me with advice in the future."

Jiang Xu is not the kind of pedantic person who insists that women stay at the gate of the mansion and never go out. Since Yan Lingji is willing to help her, Jiang Xu will naturally not refuse.

But just leave it to the people below to do something like fighting with others. Unless necessary, Jiang Yu would not let Yan Lingji take action easily.
