"Why are these mirrors so strange?"

Gongsun, who followed behind, frowned, and the shadow guards behind him lit the lights. After the room was lit, the strange feeling was reduced a little.

Zhan Zhao took a step back and took a few steps forward, and couldn't help but complain, "Oh, how did Wang Linchun make this dressing mirror? What material is the mirror, it's crooked."

At this time, a yamen runner who came to Changzhou Prefecture said, "Mr. Zhan, this is the best mirror sold recently."

The yamen runner said, bringing a stool in front of the dressing mirror, "Sit down and take a look."

Zhan Zhao walked to the table and sat down, looking in front of the mirror, and was startled, "Wow! It's so clear!"

"Is that right?" Gongsun stood behind him, "I don't know, my face is twisted a little scary, it's true."

"Sit down and watch." Zhan Zhao stood up and asked him to stand up.

Gongsun sat down and looked at it, and sighed, "It's so clear!"

Others also came to try it. It turned out that the mirror must be taken nearby, and it is best to sit directly opposite the mirror, so it is so clear that even the hair on the face can be seen.

"Well... So I look like this." Zhao Pu held his chin and looked at his eyes carefully, looking at his two eyes with different colors, "Wow, is it still quite obvious?"

At this time, Xiaoye also walked in. Although he had injuries on his body, it was not serious, but only scratches. Gongsun applied ointment to him and waited for a while, Lord Bao asked him in detail about his passing.

Zhan Zhao asked Xiao Ye, "Why is this mirror so clear?"

Ye Quan walked over and looked at it, nodded, and said, "Oh, this is a grey bone mirror."

"Bone Mirror?"

At this moment, Pang Yu and Bao Yan also ran in.

"What is a slap mirror?" Pang Yu walked to the front of the mirror and sat down and looked at it, exclaiming, "Oh, it's so clear! Get some back for my aunt, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, and sister."

Everyone couldn't help but twitch the corners of their mouths. How many mothers are there...

"How is this mirror made?" Bao Yan was curious.

Xiao Ye sighed and said, "My master has developed two types of research, one is cheap and the other is particularly expensive. This one is cheaper. The one is particularly expensive upstairs, which is clearer than this."

Everyone was surprised.

"How exactly is it made?" Bai Yutang was puzzled.

"This kind of glass mirror is made into a mirror with transparent white glass first, and then a layer of silver powder is painted on the back. The most important thing is that the silver powder is sealed with my master's special gray bone powder, and then it can be made." Ye Quan pointed to the upstairs, "There are a few particularly expensive ones that are customized by others. The mirrors are not glass, but water jade, and some are simply ice jade. They are ordered by girls from wealthy families, or those courtesans are customized by those."

"What is gray bone powder?" Bai Yutang was quite knowledgeable, but he had never heard of it, and Gongsun and others couldn't understand it.

"This is my master's unique secret recipe." Ye Quan said, "I only know that he and his master's wife would go to Laoya Valley to pick up things every once in a while, saying that it was the raw material for making bone powder. After returning home, they would grind it into powder and stir it into a paste and brush it into a mirror."

Zhan Zhao was curious, "You don't know what raw material it is?"

Ye Quan shook his head, "Master said I am still young. When I inherit his legacy in the future, he will tell me again and say..."

"What are you saying?" Zhan Zhao saw that he was hesitant and seemed to be scruples, "Your master's wife is dead, what are you afraid of?"

Ye Quan gritted his teeth, as if he was cruel and said, "Once I was hungry at night, I ran to the kitchen to get some food. When I passed by the yard, my master's wife was making bone powder, and I heard them talking. My master asked when he taught me how to make bone powder. My master said that this was a bad thing after all, and they would do it, so don't ask me to do it."

"It hurts the world?" Zhan Zhao and others were a little curious.

Ye Quan nodded, "I glanced in. Under the moonlight, I saw the master's wife smashing a skeleton with a wooden hammer. The skeleton looked gray... It was scary. I was scared away, and I didn't dare to speak or ask. I felt that I was probably sleeping in a daze."

When everyone heard this, they looked at each other silently - the gray bones? They couldn't help but think of the gray fingers that hit the roof of the carriage when they passed by Laoya Valley.

Now that I think about it, those bones are a bit petrified and feel very crunchy, but what makes the bones like that?

In addition... If these couples really use human bone pounding powder to brush the mirror, how many people will die? Did they kill them or is there a mass grave in Laoya Valley?

Zhan Zhao frowned.

Bai Yutang asked him, "Is there a mass grave in Laoya Valley?"

Zhan Zhao shook his head, "No, I haven't heard it."

Zhao Pu wanted to call two shadow guards to go to Laoya Valley to explore, but was stopped by Zhan Zhao. "Wait a minute, if Laoya Valley is not familiar with the road, don't go in, it's very dangerous."

Zhao Pu then stopped a few shadow guards, Ouyang Shaozheng asked, "Isn't it just a valley? How dangerous is it?"

"In fact, there are many forks inside, and there are a lot of gravel on the mountain, so there may be rocks falling down at any time. If you are not familiar with the road, you will easily get lost. Especially at night, there are still many crows. It is safer to find a few familiar guides when it dawns, and then lead two dogs to explore."

Everyone had to wait until dawn before talking.

At this time, Bai Yutang suddenly asked Ye Quan, "Your master and wife have been to Laoya Valley. Has he been hit by bird shit?"

Yuan was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Yes! Master's wife has."

Zhan Zhao frowned and subconsciously looked for Xiao Sizi.

"My teacher's wife asked the bird's shit to pat the neck. She came back and washed several buckets of water. I don't know how much fragrant powder I took and said it smelled like bird's shit." Ye Quan said this and started crying again, "Master and Master's wife are all good people."

Everyone looked at Xiaoye who was crying with sympathy.

Gongsun suddenly asked Xiaoye, "Did your master's wife let the bird shit be on the neck?"

"Yeah." Ye Quan nodded.

Gongsun thought for a while and asked Zhan Zhao, "Where are the clothes you just got touched by bird shit?"

Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yutang.

Bai Yutang answered with confidence, "Give it aside."

Zhan Zhao twitched the corner of his mouth, "You can wear it even if you wash it!"

Bai Yutang looked at Zhan Zhao with disapproval, "Absolutely not possible!"

Gongsun was quite helpless, and the one Lin Yehuo was also called Zou Liang to throw away.

"Do you think there is something wrong with that bird shit?" Zhao Pu asked Gongsun.

Gongsun thought for a while and nodded, "There is no reason that it is so coincidental...whether the insider in the yamen is in charge? I still want to ask."

So Zhan Zhao found all the insiders from the yamen. Gongsun asked in detail the crazy master and the wife Liu who committed suicide. Where did the two of them get photographed by bird shit?

After everyone recalled, Mrs. Liu was photographed on her head, and the master was even more miserable, and she was photographed on her face.

Everyone's mouth twitched, and they imagined the situation of being covered in bird shit, but they were speechless.

Gongsun said to Zhao Pu, "Can you help me get some bird shit tomorrow?"

Zhao Pu nodded and ordered the shadow guards to pay attention.

Gongsun felt that it was unsafe, so he asked the shadow guards to remember to protect themselves tomorrow and never get any bird shit. In addition... if possible, catch a crow and remind everyone not to be pecked by crows.

After everyone went back, they told Lord Bao about the incident.

Lord Bao frowned and sent someone to the entrance of Laoya Valley to send an umbrella. Any traveler passing by would have to hold an umbrella and would never be photographed by the bird shit again.

That night, everyone lay in a daze for a while, and it was soon dawn.

When Gongsun got up, he heard a "rattle" sound from outside. He hugged Xiao Sizi and looked out. He saw a big bird cage on the stone table in the yard, and there was a black crow in the cage.

It turned out that early in the morning, Ziying and Zheying ran to Lao Crow Valley first and came back with a crow in the net.

Everyone was watching by the cage now.

Zhan Zhao frowned, "Is the crow so big?"

Bai Yutang also stood aside and shook his head, "This is not a crow, it's bigger than a chicken."

"I don't think it's in the distance." Ouyang Shaozheng also found it strange, "Oh, it's a bit too big when you look close. No wonder the bird shit is so big."

With crows, there will naturally be bird shit. At this moment, there is already a lump at the bottom of the cage, which is almost yellow.

Gongsun picked out a little with a bamboo stick and put it in a porcelain jar, preparing to study it.

The crow was still flapping in the cage, and kept shouting "haha" in his mouth.

However, everyone looked up and down, and looked left and right, but they could not see anything wrong with the crow, except that it was a little bigger.

At this time, Wu Tou Baoyan and Pang Yu came in, each of whom was holding a pair of fried dough sticks and oil cakes.

"What is this?" Zhao Pu was curious and looked at the red and white piece of cake.

"It's rice cake, and people in the south eat more." Zhan Zhao hadn't eaten it for a long time, so he wanted to go out and buy it.

"I bought it." Pang Yu took out a large paper bag and put it on another table. Everyone washed their hands and prepared for breakfast.

The shadow guards found a curtain to cover the crows and hung them on a tree in the corner of the yard.

The crow first tossed for a while, but later it was covered by the curtain and could not be seen outside, so it became quiet.

While chewing the snacks, Pang Yu said, "Oh, let me tell you a gossip and a ghost story. Which one do you want to listen to first?"

Everyone looked at each other, and the little fourth son stretched out his hand and said, "Goggle."

Xiao Liang smiled and took a veil to wipe the powdered sugar on the corner of Xiao Sizi's mouth.

Pang Yu smiled and said, "I just went out and found out that there were many fun things. I heard that the Chopstick Master was going to kill Shen, but the magistrate found out that he was secretly collecting money and helped him do a lot of bad things. Before the incident, he quarreled with him for a while, and later he said he wanted to do the trick. However, some people advised him that the master was so old that he would not beat him or scold him without being beaten or scolded him. He could send him away. Shen's heart was soft and spared his life. Unexpectedly, he was killed by the murderer."

Bao Zheng was surprised, "Then the master has murdered someone premeditatedly? Is there any evidence?"

Pang Yu shrugged, "That's probably right, I just heard from the aunts and wives on the road."

Everyone nodded and signaled Pang Yu to continue.
To be continued...
