Chapter 121 come to live

Early in the morning, Feng Xue came to the yard to transport blood and blood as usual. After a quarter of an hour, she was already sweating profusely.

Next to him, Xu Qin sat cross-legged on the cushion, quietly picking her breath.

After a while, the two of them finished their work, and Feng Xue then asked for a question:

"It's so boring. Are garrison monks doing this kind of thing?"

It has been three days since Feng Xue and Xu Qin came to Huainan. In the past three days, Feng Xue did all the work of the neighborhood aunt. Although it is a good thing to say that there is no danger, it always makes him feel that something is wrong with the style of painting.

"Well, I heard from the master that the newly developed cities on the border will have many problems, such as lewd sacrifices, demons, and even fishing to catch a fish. However, cities like Huainan that have been established for thousands of years have long been eliminated."

Xu Qin explained to Feng Xue the specific reason for the backlash of luck. Feng Xue then understood why Sheyang County had so many disasters and difficulties back then. But then, he remembered what the monks said before and asked immediately:

"What is that water ghost?"

"The water ghost is the ghost in the water." Xu Qin said naturally, "As one of the four rivers, there are many aquatic races living in the Huaihe River, and even dragon races. Although they will try to restrain their dragon energy and demonic energy, if they die in the river, a soul without physical protection will have a high probability of being infected and becoming a resentful soul. Especially those who commit suicide by jumping into the river will become particularly powerful and even become zombies. Although all countries prohibit jumping into the river, who will still care about your rules if you die."

"So after Qu Yuan threw the river, the people were worried that he would become a zombie?" Feng Xue rolled her eyes and thought that she did not respect the ancients very much. But if she thought about it carefully, compared with Qu Yuan, he was the ancients, right?

"Don't do this, uncle, please don't be like this. If you are really bored, I'll invite you to Jinfeng Pavilion tonight!" Xu Qin saw Feng Xue rolling her eyes, thinking that she was dissatisfied with this lifestyle, so she immediately spoke.

When Feng Xue heard this, she almost blew out the old blood on Xu Qin's face.

"Jinfeng Pavilion? Are you kidding?"

"Is there any problem? Jinfeng Pavilion is already the best brothel in Huainan. I want to invite you to Chunfeng Tower, but it is in the capital!" Xu Qin thought Feng Xue felt that the grade was not high enough, so she spread her hands helplessly. Feng Xue was even more devastated when she saw this-

"You are a girl who is sixteen or seventeen years old alone. Please ask me, a child who is still a few months away from thirteen years old, to visit the kiln?"

"Who asked you to visit the kiln! We are going to brothels! Uncle, you are a family member of aristocratic families at least. Could it be that you have never been to brothels?" Xu Qin's little face blushed, and then asked in surprise. Feng Xue also knew that she had been thinking about it, and scratched her face a little embarrassedly. Just as she was about to say a few words, she suddenly felt the token in her sleeves start to vibrate.

"Whose wife quarreled with the Taurus?" Feng Xue rolled her eyes and picked up the token, but when she looked at the words on it, she immediately became energetic-

"There is finally a case! The owner of the Li family's business has been stolen!"

"Oh." Xu Qin also felt energetic when she heard this. It seemed that she understood that this girl was quite helpless about the current life of a neighborhood aunt.

After calling out the map navigation from the token and confirming the location, Feng Xue asked someone to take a carriage and drive towards Boss Li's house. Speaking of which, in addition to the lack of games, this token is already very close to the smartphone. What map navigation, what search engine, what city communication, and what functions are, it is much better than the mobile phones in the Nokia era on Earth - whether it is performance or solidity.

Boss Li’s house is not far from the Zhang Mansion, the office of the two, now called Ye Mansion, but they still chose to travel by carriage. The neighborhood committee’s aunt naturally does not require any show of the show, but this kind of "criminal case" naturally requires more attention, and at least it is better to give the reporter some confidence.

After running for a few minutes, the carriage "Guo Degang, Guo Degang..." was already in front of the yard with the plaque of "Li Mansion". This yard is a typical three-entry house, which is the highest specification that businessmen can use today. It can be seen that Boss Li should be very rich.

Before Xu Qin could go out of the carriage, a man dressed in a yamen runs over and salutes very respectfully:

"Please come with me, two sirs, Fang Ling is asking about the case..."

"What's the matter? What's missing?" Feng Xue casually inquired about the focus of the case, and the yamen runner's face suddenly showed a strange expression-

"I lost it, I lost three hundred taels of silver, and a jewelry box from Mrs. Li, and a pig in the kitchen..."

"Ha?" Not to mention Feng Xue, even Xu Qin showed an incredible look, "Why do you want us to do such a small case?"

"Because Mrs. Li's jewelry box is placed at the head of the bedroom bed, the door of the master bedroom is locked, and there are no signs of prying the door. There are maids waiting for the two ear rooms, and there are no signs of overturning the courtyard wall. Fang Ling suspected that the prisoner used magic." The yamen runner seemed a little scared of Xu Qin's identity as a monk and said tremblingly.

"Who cultivator is so unprosperous? It's fine if he is short of money and steals jewelry and silver. What's the matter with half a piece of pork?" Xu Qin frowned, but Feng Xue smiled slightly:

"Maybe it was the monster's hand? It's normal for a monster that has just transformed into stealing some meat, right?"

"This is possible." Xu Qin nodded, but she was not sure. The two walked through the inner courtyard and headed towards the back house. Soon, they saw a middle-aged man in official uniform talking to a rich man.

Seeing Feng Xue and the other two arrive, the middle-aged man in the official uniform and the rich man stood up together, bowed to the two, and then the person in the official uniform introduced:

"Two Taoist priests, below is Liu Xin, the owner of the Li family shop. This is Li Rong, who will meet two today..."

"Tell me about the case." Feng Xue interrupted Fang Ling's polite words and went straight to the point. Fang Ling was not embarrassed when he was interrupted, and immediately nodded:

"Last night, the Li family was invaded. I thought it was an ordinary burglary, but I could not find any trace. I only found a piece of paper ashes outside the bedroom. I was worried that some monks would commit crimes and dare not neglect them, so I could only bother you..."

"It's easy to say, where is the paper ashes?" Xu Qin nodded, saying that Fang Ling did nothing wrong. Then she saw Fang Ling reach out to greet the yamen runners and handed over a handful of ashes placed in a white porcelain bowl.

"It does look like a yellow paper talisman, but it can't be distinguished if it is burned like this." Xu Qin frowned at the paper ash, but Feng Xue secretly activated the spiritual treasure in her mind. As the thoughts surged, the spiritual treasure seemed to have established some connection with the paper ash. Then, a line of text began to slowly emerge...

...

ps: Regarding why the big guys can’t figure out the skills, but they expect Feng Xue to do it. Let me tell you this. If you ask a professor in a university mathematics department to do Olympiad problems for primary school students, he may not be able to do it well. It’s not that he can’t do it, but that he can’t do it based on the ideas of primary school students.

The same is true for big guys. In their opinion, things that are very basic and can even be completed easily are difficult for those who are just getting started. It is more difficult for big guys to give up their usual "tools" than for newcomers to start from scratch.
Chapter completed!
