196. The old monk in the reed(2/2)
This is a kind of promotion, which is comparable to recreation in the officialdom.
Wang Qilin said: "Well, what case are you going to handle?"
Xiang Wei said, "There was something wrong in the morning when something happened between Yin and Mao, and their wife suddenly fell to the ground and died. Then the dog barked wildly, and all the ancestral tablets offered by the family fell. They found something was wrong and came to report the case. I went to see that there was a ghost hidden in his house. This ghost was on his wife's body."
Wang Qilin asked, "What's the matter?"
Xiang Wei said, "I followed the Qi Master's instructions. There may be hidden information behind every strange thing, so I let the ghost regain her wife's body and asked her what was going on."
"It turns out that the wife of this family has died of illness, and her husband died early in life. There are also fathers, mothers and young boys in the family and teach her a spell that can continue to possess Liuyang to take care of the elderly and children in the family."
"So I did not kill her, but registered her information and interrogated it frequently. As long as she stayed in Yangshi to take care of her family, that humble job felt that it was understandable."
Wang Qilin nodded and said, "You did a good job, but you have to follow up on her situation in the future, be careful that it is talking nonsense."
Speaking of this, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind and asked again: "Then why did the ghost leave her body today?"
The time point of the intersection of Yin and Mao is very important, and he also fell into a coma at this time.
"Oh, just as Bei Zhi was about to report this, she said that she heard a particularly loud bell, and then she was so scared that the dead souls left their bodies."
After hearing this, Wang Qilin subconsciously touched the little clock hanging on his waist: Is this the function of the Heavenly King Reincarnation Bell? After ringing, the sound can be conveyed far away, and then shocked the demons and ghosts?
He could only guess that it could not be practiced. He fell into a coma after playing the clock once in the morning. This was a bit terrible and he dared not test it at will.
Dong Jihu went to order food and drinks, and the group gathered together, drinking tea and eating vegetables in big mouthfuls, much like a group of rogues gathered together.
After they finished their meal, the real thug came. When they saw Xu Da, their eyes were wet: "Uncle, you are happy to go to the county town yourself. Abandon your brothers in this rural area. As the saying goes, your wife must not be abandoned..."
"What's the matter?" Xu Da was anxious.
The ruffian Hou Jun said aggrievedly: "Uncle, San'er means you can't use it and we'll leave!"
Xu Da was convinced: "If you can't speak, stop talking. Then you also want to go to the county town?"
"The turtle grandson doesn't want to go to the county town." A rascal said with a straightforward attitude.
Xu Dadao: "Then you said it earlier, okay, you go back to pack your luggage and go to the county town. Then I will find you a job to see if you can take root in the county town."
This is also what Wang Qilin meant. They wanted to bring their own people to the county town early in the morning. Listen to Tianjian’s case handling, and it is necessary to have their own people to solve the case easily.
But they had just gone to the county town before and didn't understand the situation in the city, so they couldn't bring people rashly. Now that Wang Qilin broke the Qin Jin calamity, he has gained a firm foothold in Tingtianjian and can develop his own power.
After hearing Xu Da's words, a group of ruffians were very excited and knelt down and raised their butts to call the uncle.
When Ba Miao saw it, she shook her head. She walked over and demonstrated to them how to kneel down.
The butt needs to be raised!
Seeing this, the Youxinglishis were jealous and asked Wang Qilin and others if they could go back to the county town.
Wang Qilin said, "If you catch Hou Decai, you can go back. Oh, don't get me wrong. I didn't mean to insult the pig just now."
When everyone heard this, they were immediately depressed: "Hou Decai, an old man who is inferior to pigs and dogs, is very good at hiding and can't find it."
"Yes, he was like a mouse, as if he had crawled underground and had nowhere to find."
Wang Qilin said: "Let's investigate first. He is hiding very deeply now, but this does not mean there are no clues to be found."
That being said, he actually had no confidence. They talked about this last time Li Changge arrived. The Yin general Taiba of Yunzhou Prefecture had personally rushed to Jixiang County to investigate Hou Decai and Yin Zhuo's prison, but he has found nothing to this day.
This Silver General is a master. Like Wang Qilin, he raised spirit beasts as pets. He raised dark crows, who feed on death energy and ghost energy. However, there are hundreds of ghosts trapped in Yinzhuo, and they have a scattered ghost energy, so it should be easy to find.
But Taiba has not gained anything for a long time, which is strange.
He told the matter and shouted Xiang Wei: "It turns out that the weird old turtle was raised by Lord Yin General? Alas, the flood washed away the Dragon King Temple."
"What's wrong?" Wang Qilin asked.
Xiang Wei said frustratedly: "We found out that Hou De had a lover named Shui Gu. This old lady would drive birds and animals. That day, we caught up with her and saw that a strange black turtle appeared. We thought it was the help of this old lady, so we started to fuck it..."
"Can you be the opponent of the Crow?" Xie Hama was surprised.
Xiang Wei smiled dryly and said, "We were almost killed by the Nether Crow, so Shui Gu ran away."
Baihu touched his forehead and said, "No wonder the black turtle didn't kill us. It turned out that it was Lord Yin General's personal spiritual pet."
Wang Qilin couldn't help but shake his head. Unlucky, he actually took over such a bunch of idiot subordinates.
The village is fine for the time being, so he left a Youxing and a Lishi guarding the door, and everyone else went to the water where Shui Gu disappeared last time.
This is the upper reaches of the Fulong River. The section of the river is called Tie Niu Chong. This section of the river has the strongest water flow. If you put down an iron bull, you can rush away.
Wang Qilin stood on the river bank and looked around. The widest part of this river section was forty or fifty steps. The water flowed rapidly, bringing mud and sand a little mud. Standing on the shore, looking down, you only saw yellow and gray mud rolling, and you couldn't see what was under the water.
Lush reeds grow on both sides of the river. The reeds grow particularly lushly here, and the narrowest part of the river is even covered with reeds.
Xu Da rolled up his trousers and wanted to go into the river. Wang Qilin stopped him and shook his head: "If their ship can really dive into the water, it will be impossible to touch it by relying on people to wading in the water."
As a result, Xu Da said: "I don't want to touch the boat when I go down, but to touch the snails and step on the river clams. In the evening, we will get a fried snails and then a pot of wine. Wouldn't that be happy?"
Xiang Wei pointed to a poplar tree behind and said, "At that time, the crow was on the tree, and then Shui Gu ran to this side. A boat emerged from the reed marsh. The tiger smelled the fishy smell of Hou Decai's body, so we knew that he must be on the boat, but the boat could sink into the water, which was very strange."
Wang Qilin sniffed. He had been awakening the nasal god and rushing to the dragon jade for a short time. He was not very good at using it and did not smell any abnormal smell.
The river was too fast and there were no boats ferrying around, but someone set up fishing nets here to catch fish.
When the person who went offline arrived, Wang Qilin asked, "Brother-in-law, I am polite, I want to ask you for information."
The old fisherman grinned and said, "It's okay if you have something to say, but you can ask, but the old man will speak out."
Wang Qilin said: "Did you come to fish every day in recent days?"
The old fisherman nodded.
"Then has the number of fishing you caught changed during this period?"
"There are changes, there are fewer fish."
Wang Qilin asked again: "Then have you ever seen something strange? something unusual?"
The old fisherman thought for a while and said, "I once saw an old monk appearing in the reeds. He was carrying a few bass and carp in his hand. We met. He released the fish and said that he was here to release the animals."
"But there are no temples nearby. Where did the old monk come from? Why did he release fish here? I think it's strange."
"Besides, the old man has been fishing for a lifetime, but he still can't tell whether the fish was just caught? I saw that the fish in his hand was clearly caught!"
Wang Qilin asked, "Do you still have an impression of what he looks like?"
As he said that, he waved his hand and immediately took out a picture of Wei. It was a frontal portrait and side-face painting of Hou Decai.
The old fisherman nodded quickly and said, "It's a bit like it, but the old monk has no hair or beard."
After receiving this news, Wang Qilin was immediately excited. He found out the news about Hou Decai?
Although the information found was not related to Hou Decai's exact location, it was gained in the end, which was a great boost to morale.
Wang Qilin thanked him like an old fisherman and gave him ten copper baht rewards. The old fisherman was very happy and gave him a big catfish he had called and said that it was delicious to make iron pot catfish.
Then he said, "Sir, the old man is old and has a bad brain, so he doesn't remember things very clearly. The person in the portrait just now looks a bit like the old monk I saw, but I don't feel exactly the same. I wonder if I remembered it wrong? Maybe my words won't help you."
Wang Qilin said: "I have helped me a lot."
He took the catfish back and handed it to Xu Da, and asked, "How far is the nearest temple around him? No wonder he has never found any news about Hou Decai. He is likely to have hid in the temple and become a fake monk."
Xiang Wei said: "There are only two temples in the entire county, one is Duowen Temple and the other is Wukong Temple. The two temples are not close to each other here, so it should be relatively closer to Duowen Temple."
Wang Qilin said: "You go back to your hometown first, then continue to stare at Shui Gu's family and continue to investigate related matters. But if you find something in the future, don't rush to alert the snake. Come to me first and report it, and I will arrange it."
