"No one in the coffin?"

"There is really no one," said Jiaotu, "I opened the coffin and saw that there was no clothing or burial in the coffin. Old Master Liu was not dead, maybe he was still in the Liu family compound at this time."

The Liu family courtyard is located on Longmen Mountain in the south of Luocheng, covering an area of ​​hundreds of acres. People often joke that if an ordinary woman marrys into the high walls and gray tiles of the Liu family, she may never be able to get out of it for the rest of her life and dies of old age.

Jiaotu pulled off Chen Ji's blindfold cloth, and the three of them sat on the ground on the top of the Zhuangyuan Mountain: "Tell me, what should I do now."

Yun Yang hesitated for a long time: "How dare the Liu family dare to take the big fuss about the world and put pressure on the secret spy department with the old man's fake death? Wouldn't that mean that the Liu family, like Liu Shiyu, all colluded with enemies?"

Jiaotu raised his arms and tied his hair bun: "The Liu family has been operating the Central Plains for a long time, and has controlled 80% of the land and officials. Even the imperial court's collection of grain and taxes depends on their faces. For example, families like Liu, Xu, Hu, Chen, Qi, and Yang have long regarded family interests higher than those of the country, and it is not uncommon for them to collude with enemies."

"But Your Majesty's Long Live Army is right next to Yuzhou, how dare they?" Yun Yang was surprised.

Jiaotu pondered for a moment: "What if the Prince Jing's Mansion connects the Liu family? I will send a letter later and pass the news to the inner minister. This matter is not something you and I can decide. We must mobilize troops here!"

"Yes, we will immediately mobilize troops to surround the Liu family!"

Chen Ji interrupted: "Two sirs..."

Yun Yang's eyes lit up: "Why, do you have new ideas? Tell me quickly, you have many ideas!"

Chen Ji said, "I'll both of you give me some rewards. Last time, Lord Jiaotu's fifty taels have not been given, totaling one hundred and fifty taels."

Jiaotu's face turned dark: "I just know the money."

Chen Ji is in a hurry to lack money, so he roughly estimated the ice flow in his body. This time he probably has to use more than ten ginseng to solve it. There are still many ice flows in the prison in Luocheng that have not been collected, so he may have to spend thousands of taels of silver to stop this time.

My own practice is too expensive!

He smiled and said, "Two sirs, it is already a great contribution to the fact that there is no one in the coffin. I believe the inner couple will be very happy. Compared with this, what is a hundred taels of silver?"

Jiaotu reluctantly took a red sandalwood bracelet from his wrist: "Give it to the Buddhist Tongbao, you can go to Dhara Temple to get a hundred taels of silver."

Chen Ji was stunned for a moment. He looked at the bracelet, but saw that each bead was filled with dense words, which made people dazzled.

"Can this withdraw money?" he asked curiously.

"Have you seen the Buddhist Tongbao?" Jiaotu explained: "The bead is their Buddhist code. If you take it to their Xiangjichu, you will naturally give it to them according to the code and they will understand it."

Chen Ji was even more curious: "If I carved a bracelet that was exactly the same, wouldn't I be able to exchange it for money?"

Jiaotu chuckled: "I persuaded you to stop this. Many people in the world made Buddhist ideas, but they were all saved in the end."

On the side, Yun Yang took out five small silver ingots and said, "Give it."

Chen Ji smiled sincerely: "I have been out today for too long. I'll send me back first. As for how to deal with the matters of the Liu family, I can't participate."

His savings were already 200 taels of silver, zero, and one hundred and seventy-three copper coins.

If it doesn't count the fifty taels of silver under the bed.

...

...

It was not until midnight that the carriage sent Chen Ji back to the entrance of Taiping Medical Center.

Yunyang and Jiaotu just lost a lot of money, and even the joy of getting credit was diluted. Without a word of greeting, they drove away.

The carriage went away, and dark clouds jumped into his arms from the roof of the car: "I have already remembered the location of the inner prison... Oh, you are so cold."

"There has been too many ice flows in the inner prison. Have you seen Jiaotu's practice path?" Chen Ji walked towards the clinic with a copper coin in his left hand and a dark cloud in his right hand.

"I saw it, a ghost came out of her eyebrows, fierce!" Wuyun said.

Chen Ji pushed open the door of the clinic, but at the moment he pushed the door open, the moment he was ugly, Bing Liu arrived as promised.

This seems to be a special moment, and the dormant ice flow will always surge at this time, never ending.

Chen Ji walked towards the medicine cabinet with difficulty. A medicine dealer came to his house this morning, and the master should have added new ginseng.

However, before he could reach the medicine cabinet, he could no longer move forward.

Chen Ji said hard: "Dark clouds... ginseng."

In the clinic, dark clouds jumped out of Chen Ji's arms, jumped onto the medicine cabinet with a familiarity, opened the drawer, and took the new ginseng back to touch Chen Ji.

Ding Ding Dangdang, the ginseng turned into ten transparent beads and fell on the ground and bounced up again. The dark clouds ran and chased the beads, swallowing them one by one into their mouths.

The molten flow feedback came back and instantly ignited the left Taiyi point outside the Dantian and the right Taiyi point!

Chen Ji leaned tiredly against the counter and touched Dark Cloud's head: "Thank you."

Wuyun raised his head: "Don't say thank you to me in the future... What if your master finds that ginseng is gone?"

Chen Ji was embarrassed: "You have to buy a new substitute when your master didn't find out."

Wuyun thought for a moment: "How about I go and beat the fat white cat again and settle the account for you?"

Chen Ji was solemnly respected: "...Good idea!"

At this moment, Old Man Yao's dull voice came from behind him: "I asked you to send me some medicine, but I actually delivered it from morning to evening."

Chen Ji subconsciously turned around and blocked the medicine cabinet drawer that had not been closed behind him: "Master? Why are you not having any sound when you walk?"

Not to mention Chen Ji, even the dark clouds didn’t notice the other party approaching!

Old man Yao stood in the main hall of the clinic with his hands on his back, with a sarcastic expression on his face: "Do you still know how to come back? Why don't you stand there and do it, come here!"

Chen Ji didn't dare to move because the drawer of the medicine cabinet behind him had not closed yet!

Just as he was thinking about a solution quickly, he saw Wuyun jumping out of his arms, running to Old Man Yao and jumping up.

Old Man Yao was stunned for a moment, subconsciously reached out to catch the dark clouds, and the furry little black cat meowed in his hands, blinking his golden vertical eyes.

But Old Man Yao was silent for a long time, and finally held Dark Cloud in his arms, touched its furry head, and sneered at Chen Ji: "It's much more sensible than you... Let's go, Dark Cloud, grandpa will take you to have snacks."

Chen Ji: Ah?

When Wuyun made a fuss, Old Man Yao forgot to scold himself.

While Old Man Yao turned around, Chen Ji hurriedly closed the medicine cabinet gently.

As soon as I closed it, I heard the light voice of Old Man Yao: "What else can I hide? I will buy one for me tomorrow and make up for it. I will pay attention to the account book. I must not lose a single tactile."

Chen Ji followed him to the backyard awkwardly and changed the topic: "Master, where are the two senior brothers?"

Old Man Yao said indifferently: "She Dengke's third brother held a church for wealthy families. She Dengke brought Liu Quxing to listen to the opera and came back tomorrow morning. She wanted to take you, but you didn't want to come back for a long time."

He re-recommended the purple wood box from the house. The first drawer was dessert and the second drawer was candied fruit.

Wuyun didn't eat for a day and stuffed her mouth very much.

Chen Ji just looked into the drawer and was stared at by Old Man Yao.

"If you want to eat, go to the kitchen to cook by yourself," Old Man Yao said coldly.

"oh."

Chen Ji took a cake of mixed grains from the kitchen and asked while chewing it: "Master, does this time of ugly time have any special meaning?"

While holding the snacks in your hand and feeding them to the dark clouds, Old Man Yao frowned and thought: "The ugly moment is three times... it is the time when you were born."

"Hmm?" Chen Ji was shocked. Is Bingliu always surging at this time? Is it because the ugly moment is his birthday?

Strangely, does the grand consciousness in the battlefield have to wait until the moment of birth if you want to take over yourself?

Chen Ji hesitated for a long time and finally asked frankly: "Master, what is an official?"

Old Man Yao glanced at him: "Why tell you? You can sell money with intelligence, but you want to get free information from me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wuyun stopped eating snacks, but just used its furry head to arch the palm of Old Man Yao's palm.

Seeing this, Old Man Yao said angrily: "You little guy looks well-behaved, but you are so kind."

He said slowly: "The official is the general term for those who practice. There are many ways to practice and everything."

Chen Ji was puzzled: "Why don't the people know their existence?"

Old man Yao touched Wuyun's head and said, "It's just that most people don't know that most officials have to hide their own practice skills, otherwise they will be coveted by fellow practitioners."

"Why?"

"Because the way every path of practice wants to seek is like a bowl of water. There is so much water in the bowl, and there are so many people, and there is less that everyone can drink. If you want to walk on the last road to heaven, you need to drink this bowl of water alone, and it is impossible to divide it by one person."

Chen Ji was stunned, conserving energy?

Only then did he realize why Yun Yang said that there are only life and death on the road of cultivation. Under such a way of heaven, those who practice the same path are natural enemies.

Chen Ji asked calmly: "Master, are you an official..."

Old man Yao smiled and waved to the sky, but saw the sound of wings shaking suddenly in the dark night, and a huge crow came!

Chen Ji suddenly stood up and it turned out that the crow belonged to his master!

When I was haunted by Bingliu, when I went to Liu Shiyu's house to investigate the case, the other party was there!

"Master, you know everything," Chen Ji hesitated.

"I know what, so what if I don't know," Old Man Yao gently stroked the crow's wings, and the crow looked at Chen Ji, opened his mouth and smiled silently, as if mocking his ignorance of the world.

Master, this crow, is as mean as Master.

At this time, the crow looked at the dark clouds that looked down at the food, then looked at Old Man Yao, and made a rattle sound in his mouth.

Old man Yao patiently said to it: "Meet it, this is a new friend."

The next second, the crow looked at Chen Ji and then at Old Man Yao.

Old man Yao continued to patiently say: "This is not yet."

Chen Ji: "..."
