Chapter 73 Uninvited guests

Xiuyuan walked into his mother's room and before he could enter the door, he heard his mother humming a small song. The song was melodious and gentle. The door was covered with vagueness. Xiuyuan saw his mother sitting upright in front of the dressing table, smearing her face with a pink makeup in her hand. The mother in the bronze mirror was smiling. Xiuyuan couldn't help but be stunned. His mother was well-educated and well-reasoned in front of others and behind. Xiuyuan had never seen her mother like this.

"Mother, I am Xiuyuan. Can I come in?" Xiuyuan lightly buckled the door panel.

Mrs. Wang turned around and answered, "Come in."

Xiuyuan then pushed the door open and went in, and she was the only one in the room. "Why is my father not here?"

Wang still applied makeup in front of the mirror, "Your Uncle Fang recently investigated the case. Your father went to the government office with him. He was very curious about the murder case."

Xiuyuan nodded, and there was another strange fragrance in his mother's room.

"Did you use any spices?" Xiu Yuan stood behind Wang. Wang turned around and looked at his son in surprise, "No, why do you ask this? You don't know if I can't smell the fragrance."

Xiuyuan was even more surprised. Could it be that neither mother nor Mochou could smell this?

"Why are you here? Is there anything you need to ask me for?" Wang stood up and Xiuyuan noticed that she changed into another piece of clothes, this time in a more gorgeous color. She also dressed up specially, which was completely different from the image of her mother on weekdays.

"I want to see what clothes my mother has chosen in the embroidery workshop?"

As soon as he said this, Wang seemed to be interested immediately. She smiled, "You kid, how beautiful the long robe that Boss Xue brought, you don't want it. Now you have to see the clothes I chose." Although he said that, Wang was still very happy to show off her clothes. She took out the robes, shook them in the air and put them on her body and asked Xiuyuan with a smile, "Is it good?"

The moment when the clothes were shaken, the fragrance became strong. Xiuyuan couldn't help frowning. The faint fragrance made him feel a little uncomfortable, but strangely they couldn't even smell it.

Xiuyuan nodded, "It looks good, but I remember my mother didn't like such gorgeous colors before."

Wang carefully put away his clothes, "I really like these colors now. When I put them on, I look younger."

Judging from his mother's appearance, Xiuyuan didn't know what to say. He picked up a piece of clothing casually. It had a silky texture and was embroidered with a charming white bird, which was vividly embroidered, as if he was about to spread his wings out of the clothes.

However, the white bird embroidered a pair of blood-red eyes, and Xiuyuan was close but there was no clue. In the end, he had to leave his mother's room.

On autumn nights, the night wind blowing was already very cold. When I remembered the meaningful smile of Yunque, Xiuyuan felt cold on her back, and the whole house was shrouded in a strange atmosphere that could not be described.

Buyu and Luo Yan entered the embroidery building through the back door, and there was no one in the embroidery building, and even the female workers who worked were unable to see it. All they had were the beautiful lights and the fragrance.

"What does it taste?" Luo Yan covered his nose in disgust.

"It is a fragrance," said unswervingly, "It cannot be seen by ordinary people, but this fragrance can influence people's will."

"Will we be swayed?"

"This depends on practice," Buyu walked in front of him, and the two went upstairs. The embroidery building, which looked small, actually had a long corridor and many closed doors.

"Why are there so many rooms?" Luo Yan also felt strange. All the doors were the same, and the golden and red door panels were neatly arranged in the corridor. "What are you going to explore?"

"I want to see the owner of this embroidery workshop." Buyu heard a bloody smell coming from a room beside her. She pushed the door and found that the door was locked.

Luo Yan came over tacitly and gently bolted the door, and the door opened. He nodded to him without hesitation, and the two walked in.

As soon as he came in, he covered his nose with Luo Yan at the same time.

The room was empty, with only a container similar to a tank. The two of them were stunned when they approached. A bloody thing swimming in the tank, and the red liquid like blood nourished the thing.

Buyu felt a little disgusted. This thing had no skin, only flesh and blood, swimming constantly in the tank.

"So disgusting," Luo Yan turned his head, "What the hell is this?"

Next to the tank is a screen-like thing hanging a long gown with an unfinished pattern embroidered on it, and a long snake skin floats on it.

Unswervingly walked over to see the strange thing, she felt cold on her back, and the snakeskin was shaking in front of her eyes, and the skinless thing in the tank was still swimming.

"This pattern was embroidered with snake skin." Luo Yan also noticed this. He touched the clothes, "It felt pretty good."

The clothes of this texture were as shocked as the purple gray and white dragon gown seen in Xiuyuan Room.

Xue Yunque got off the Li family's sedan chair, and she turned around and thanked the coachman politely. As soon as she was about to enter the embroidery workshop, she suddenly felt something was wrong.

There was an uninvited guest, Yun Que frowned and walked in quickly.

Luo Yan also felt a strong demonic aura at the same time. He patted him unswervingly, "Someone is back."

Yun Que walked into the embroidery building and looked around. The air seemed to contain other smells. She felt it sensitively. She touched her hair and still strolled upstairs in the courtyard. The footsteps echoed clearly in the pavilion. When she walked up to the second floor, all the doors were still neatly closed. She glanced at her eyes and looked at her, with a strange smile on her lips.

"It seems that there is a big man coming to my small embroidery workshop. Uninvited guests, welcome to come here." Her voice was conveyed in the quiet pavilion.

Buyu and Luo Yan hid in one of the rooms. The two of them looked out through the crack in the door. Although they could not see Yun Que's face, the bright colors of her body were already dazzling enough.

"This woman is really arrogant," Luo Yan whispered on Buyu's head, "I have used something that hides the smell and she can still feel our existence. It seems that she is very good at it."

She tried hard to look through the crack in the door. She wanted to see Xue Yunque's face because she wanted to identify who this woman was.

Yun Que clapped his hands, and suddenly, wisps of colorful things flew over from all directions. Monsters of various colors, like smoke, flew out from the room and surrounded by Yun Que.

Buyu and Luo Yan turned their heads, and the things swimming in the tank also popped up, with their eyes closed and their mouths open, looking very disgusting.

"I feel like I'm going to vomit," Luo Yan shook his head and pointed at the thing in the tank and said unswervingly.

"She wants to summon these things." Buyu's hand was sweating, "We were exposed as soon as this thing came out."

"Then don't let him go out," the monster who was eager to try rushed out of the tank, with his bloody mouth opened and flew towards Buyu and Luo Yan.

Buyu and Luo Yan cast spells at the same time, forming a barrier in the air, which immediately blocked the attack of the bloody monster.

And these monsters of unknown origin were pouring out, surrounding Yun Que, who looked at these things like counting, "Oh, Xiao Si hasn't come out yet, it seems that our guests are in his room."

Yun Que smiled strangely, her laughter was very sharp, and she walked towards the room of Buyu and theirs step by step.

Li's family

A carriage was stopped at the door, and Maochun, who was tired, got off from it, and a head was poked out from the carriage. It was Fang Linxian.

"Brother Maochun has worked hard today. I'll take a rest when I go back." After that, I immediately went back to the car and started to leave.

Maochun passed by the main hall and was about to return to the room when he heard Xiuyuan calling him.

"Father," Xiuyuan ran up in a small step, and Maochun turned around, "Are you not asleep yet?"

"I'm waiting for you, where are you going today?" Xiuyuan helped his father sit down, Maochun was covered in dust and his face was full of fatigue.

"I have investigated the case with your Uncle Fang. I finally found out who the deceased's surname is named after a while."

"Oh?" Xiu Yuan suddenly became interested, "Who is the deceased?"

"I am a famous gangster in the town, and I have no relatives, so no one goes to the government to report missing."

"Have there any progress in the case?" Xiu Yuan saw that his father's lips were chapped and thought that he must have been running around for a day without having to drink water, so he poured a cup of tea for his father.

Maochun shook his head, "Not yet, not only has there been no progress, but today the government also received a report that the family had lost someone."

"Someone is missing?" Xiu Yuan was stunned.

Maochun nodded, "Yes, within a day, several families reported that they had lost their son and husband, and they were all young and middle-aged men."

For some reason, Xue Yunque's seductive eyes suddenly flashed in Xiuyuan's mind. His intuition was actually related to the embroidery workshop.

"Cultivate fate," Maochun called him as he looked thoughtful.

"What's wrong with Father?" Xiu Yuan came to his senses.

"It's not peaceful recently, you'd better not go out." Maochun felt creepy when he remembered the way of death of the deceased.

Xiuyuan nodded, "I know my father."

Maochun stood up and said, "I'm tired for a day and I'm going to go back to bed. I might have to go out early tomorrow morning. You should also take a break early." He said that.

Xiuyuan suddenly remembered something, "Father, have you smelled any fragrance?"

Maochun turned around and looked at him strangely, "What's the fragrance?"

The fragrance of Xiuyuan in the yard can still be smelled, "What spices have my mother used recently? It smells so good."

Maochun frowned, "I haven't smelled anything. Did she use spices?"

Xiuyuan suddenly felt like she was hit by something, and that strong bad premonition, Xue Yunque's eyes, her whispering voice, and finally her meaningful smile, Xiuyuan felt a chill again.

Will it become so cold when autumn begins? Or is it the mysterious owner of the embroidery workshop? Xiuyuan smiled at his father, "It's okay, maybe it's useless, you should go back and rest quickly."
