I am your natural enemy

The small black bead flew away, fell into the black smoke and disappeared. The black smoke gradually dispersed, and the small temple gradually returned to normal. It still looked a bit cramped. Only a rigid clay statue with very ordinary workmanship still stood on the altar. superior.

No one knows what's going on here, and probably no one cares.

The only people who care about that Ah Piao are the other Ah Piao, who are creditors.

Just a few hours later, the creditor appeared in the small town. He found Ah Piao, who was worshiping at the small temple together, and confirmed that the gambling dog Ah Piao was indeed in this small town.

The creditor came to the small temple but couldn't find it. He searched again in the small town and asked other Ah Piao, but there was no trace of him.

In the end, it can only be concluded that the gambling dog ran away.

If there is no news about a gambling dog who has run away, everyone will think this is normal.

…

The people from Lieyang Department are still pursuing it, and the people from Wudang are also pursuing it in their own way.

Unfortunately, there has been no result. There are no clues about the follow-up to the Dry Well case, and there is no follow-up to the Paper Money Workshop case.

After Wudang Headmaster returned, he personally inspected various classics and began to feel that Wen Yanshuo's ideas were worth investing more resources to try.

He hadn't thought of this before because he felt that the two cases were related. Maybe the new monster that appeared was released after being sealed.

As for the paper money workshop case, it does look like it was the work of a newly resurrected antique.

Therefore, the monsters in the workshop have always been considered as monsters from at least two or three thousand years ago.

But if we consider it as a monster after Jiazi Dangmo, the previous considerations are indeed useless.

For monsters, before and after that time period, there are two completely different eras.

The monsters before and after them are completely different types.

If you use money-related things to track down, even if you are wrong, it won't take too much time.

In human society, money is needed for everything, but among aliens, there really aren't that many things related to money.

The headmaster of Wudang contacted the people from the Lieyang Department and began to investigate through elimination methods. It is estimated that the results will be available within a week.

…

Wen Yan is still practicing. He wants to know what the power of the Five Constant Beings is, but he doesn't feel anything during his daily practice.

Logically speaking, he should have already started, at least he must have some feeling.

It's weird, I can't feel any difference.

He can only continue his daily practice and continue to live his own small life first.

He actually wanted to go to work, but unfortunately the director had given him a holiday after the Chinese New Year on the pretext that he needed to recuperate.

It was very rare that he was unanimously recognized by all his colleagues in the entire unit.

After knowing that he wanted to go to work, within one day, he received calls from three or four colleagues to persuade him.

Sister Ye was obviously still recovering from her injuries, so she came to his home in a wheelchair to visit him, the "injured", and advised him to take a good rest at home and stop thinking about going to work.

It was quite refreshing to take a vacation, but after taking more than ten days of vacation, he felt like there were ants crawling all over his body, always looking for something to do.

He was now practicing for fifteen hours a day, and the gray cloth no longer stayed on his arm. He started playing hide-and-seek again, forcibly lowering his daily practice time to 12 hours.

Although the practice of his torso does not actually require the assistance of gray cloth, the gray cloth is only used as a shield, so that when he starts practicing, the yang energy will be like an explosion, and the impact will not be good.

Now some people are beginning to guess that Tuoba Martial God lives in Decheng.

At Decheng Funeral Home, the director called Feng Yao.

"Feng Yao, hurry up and find something for Wen Yan to do."

"What happened?"

"He is used to being busy, and now he actually wants to come to work!"

"..." Feng Yao took the phone away and looked at it. He was talking to the curator.

"As you know, I'm getting older, I'm about to retire, and I just want to live in peace.

Don't you know it was very peaceful in the library when Wen Yan was on vacation?

Every time he comes, something happens. I'm not just saying this. There are statistics.

You should know best.

You should quickly find something for him to do, and don't let him have any thoughts about coming to work anymore.

How could this young man love working so much? It was so abnormal. "

"..." Feng Yao held the phone and listened to the curator's ramblings. Later, the misfortune began again, and Cai Heizi was involved again. Feng Yao couldn't help but sigh.

"Okay, don't worry, I promise to find something for him to do right away, and I will never let him have the evil idea of ​​going to work again!"

After hanging up the phone, Feng Yao thought about it, he had never heard of such an outrageous thing in his life.

He searched on the computer to find something for Wen Yan to do. It was very simple.

If you want to give Wen Yan a case, that's easy.

There isn't much else in the Lieyang Department, but there are a lot of cases, and there are also a lot of difficult cases.

He can be pulled out casually, with eight hundred cases revealed and one thousand cases accumulated.

Feng Yao looked through the existing cases that were suitable for Wen Yan to do. Either someone was doing it, or the difficulty was not high. It would be a waste of resources for Wen Yan to do it.

Finally, I thought about the case in the neighboring county a few days ago. No one invited Wen Yan, so Wen Yan went there by himself.

He rummaged through the backlog and found an arson case.

At the time, this case was said to be caused by a strange fire, so it was brought to the Lieyang Department.

The results of the investigation by the Lieyang Department are indeed abnormal, but it is difficult to preserve the things that the Lieyang Department wants to find in the fire.

For example, traces of alien species, Yin Qi and other things have been swept away long ago by a fire.

And the most important thing is that in this case, the only person who died was the person who set the fire. No one else was injured, only property was damaged. In the end, it became a backlog of cases.

No matter what, it is impossible for the Lieyang Department to solve all related cases in the world.

And if there are no casualties, it is destined that the priority of the case will not be particularly high.

After digging out the case and seeing that it was in Guanzhong County, Feng Yao looked for another piece of information related to Guanzhong County.

This is the course of action of the Five Desires Demon based on the time when the patient with apathy got sick.

In this route, there are records of the demon's recent activities in Guanzhong County.

Wen Yan said that the person he asked them to help find might overlap with the route the demon had taken.

The people found now and the people on the list are all people who were possessed by the demon and had contact with them in Guanzhong County during the period of possession.

It just so happened that they were all given to Wen Yan together.

Feng Yao called Wen Yan and first talked about looking for someone. After he finished speaking, he mentioned that there was a backlog of fire cases in Guanzhong County. It was somewhat similar to the fire cases a few days ago. Would Wen Yan want to do it? Go check it out.

After hanging up the phone, Feng Yao showed a smile and found something to do, which was not easy.

On the other side, Wen Yan saw the file pushed by Feng Yao.

It's a case in Guanzhong County, and it's a case last year. The similarities are that they both caught fire in the middle of the night, and the arsonist died inside. There is no other similarity.

Moreover, it was a case last year. According to the previous thinking of linking the case with the Dry Well case, this case will indeed not be referred to.

Now based on Wen Yan's thinking, there are many similarities.

In addition to arson in the middle of the night and the arsonist dying in the fire, according to Wen Yan's previous thinking, there is another similarity, which is related to money.

The place where the fire broke out in this case was a small shop that processed jewelry.

There are a lot of gold, silver, gems and other valuable things inside.

Approximately equal to money.

It's just that the priority of this case is not particularly high, because after cleaning up bit by bit, there was almost no loss in the precious metals and other things found, which ruled out the possibility of robbery and arson.

Wen Yan took a look and saw that he had nothing to do anyway. Gray Bu had started playing hide and seek now, so let's go out for a walk.

After making an appointment with Prince Zhu for tea and asking Feng Wei to open the way, Wen Yan took Xiao Huo Miao to Guanzhong County.

Prince Zhu was as enthusiastic as ever and pulled Wen Yan into the tea room.

"What mission are you here for again?"

"I have nothing to do and am on vacation. I have been practicing for too long. Come out and do some activities."

"If you need any help, just ask. If there is a place that needs manpower, just ask. I have enough manpower."

Speaking of this, Prince Zhu burst into laughter.

The last time there was such a big battle, all of them were extras. He didn't know the details, but he heard later that the effect was outstanding.

Even though there are a lot of Ah Piaos to look at, every one of them has been registered.

Moreover, the Lieyang Department really recruited dozens of them from those A Piao.

Those who were not selected were as happy as if they had eaten pigeon farts, because whenever there was a need, they were candidates.

With filing and records, even if we have started, at least we won’t be able to find the temple gate while carrying the pig’s head.

"I came here to look around, find someone, and stop by somewhere. There was a fire last year, has the prince heard about it?"

Wen Yan gave an overview of the case, and Prince Zhu shook his head.

"I don't know. Someone must know. Just wait and I'll ask you."

Prince Zhu picked up his cell phone, sent a message, and continued drinking tea with Wen Yan.

At the same time, the news that Wen Yan had arrived and asked about a case quickly spread among some local Ah Piao groups.

Within ten minutes, news came back that there was a Piao who was considered an eyewitness.

For the sake of convenience, Prince Zhu directly arranged a car to take Wen Yan to where he wanted to go, so that it would be more convenient for him to say it on the spot.

When Wen Yan arrived, a paper-wrapped taxi was parked there. In addition to the driver, an old acquaintance, there was also A Piao, who looked to be at most eighteen or nineteen years old, standing there waiting.

"What do you call it?"

"Sir, just call me Mao Dan." Mao Dan saw that Wen Yan didn't seem to be able to say it out easily, so he immediately said, "My name is Zhang Mao Dan. When I was a child, my family was uneducated, so I always called me Mao Dan. Later, until my death, I didn’t change my name either.”

"Okay, let me take a look first."

Wen Yan looked at the house in front of him. It had been a year and it was still dark. The neighbors seemed to have moved away long ago.

Wen Yan has some impressions of this kind of place. In the early years, there were self-built houses like this next to the national highway. They were basically restaurants and car repair shops.

Later, roads were rebuilt in some places, some highways were built, and some national highways were relocated. The original roadside shops were either relocated or closed.

The rent in this place is very cheap, and it is also very cheap to buy. Moreover, there is little supervision, so it is quite suitable for a jewelry workshop that requires the use of fire.

Wen Yan entered it from the side. Everything that should be moved here was moved away. The only things that could be seen were the traces of the original place. He didn't feel any yin energy. Everything was normal.

After Wen Yan walked around inside, the small flame that had been hidden in his collar came out.

When he inhaled on one of the places, he saw some black ash floating there quickly condensing into a small piece of ashes in Wen Yan's palm.

It's obviously ashes, but it looks like it was before it was burned. It won't break apart when touched.

"Is it the same as last time?"

The little flames expressed the same thing again and again.

Wen Yan frowned slightly, always feeling that something was strange. If the same type of incident happened more than a year ago, and he seemed to be very cautious, then why was that guy so rampant this time?

Wen Yan walked out of it.

"Maodan, tell me what you know."

“That night, I happened to be passing by nearby and saw that guy, who seemed to have picked up something, like gold.

Then he came right back here, and I watched him pick up his musket and light the fire.

He ordered the entire store and shouted something, but I didn’t hear it clearly. "

"Have you told the Lie Yang Department about this?"

"I haven't told anyone." Speaking of this, Mao Dan felt a little embarrassed: "I thought he had picked up gold. I also walked around to see if I could pick up anything. "

Wen Yan didn't say anything. Mao Dan seemed to think this was too ridiculous. He hesitated and sighed.

"To tell you the truth, I actually wanted to come to this store to steal something.

My daughter was hospitalized at the time. The conditions at home were not very good, and her children were not filial.

I saw that she was suffering there because she was worried about the cost of the surgery.

I don't have any skills. I remember that this place is quite remote and there is a workshop, so I wanted to steal some.

Who would have thought that he would meet that guy setting fire to him.

How dare I say anything to the Lieyang Department? When I was young, my daughter was implicated because of her composition.

If I am implicated again now and let the Lieyang Department go to question my daughter, I...hey..."

It was only then that Wen Yan realized that the guy in front of him was actually an old man, but he only maintained the appearance of the age when he died.

"What's your daughter's name?"

Mao Dan directly reported his ID number.

Wen Yan checked and found out, my dear, Mao Dan's daughter is eighty years old and has many basic diseases. She has been hospitalized two or three times this year due to two or three diseases. Because she is older, she has been receiving conservative treatment.

"I will ask someone to help me check it out later, but this guy has a lot of underlying diseases..."

When Mao Dan heard this, he said quickly.

"I understand, I understand, birth, old age, illness and death are normal human affairs.

My family has never been uneducated. Starting from me, I have always suffered the disadvantage of being uneducated.

Among my grandchildren, the highest level of education is high school graduation.

However, among the great-grandchildren, there is a great-granddaughter who is very good at studying and will take the college entrance examination in half a year.

My daughter's only wish now is to close her eyes and see a real college student in her family.

If I can delay it until then, I...I..."

Mao Dan said that he was going to kneel down to Wen Yan.

Wen Yan quickly grabbed him and looked at the information again. Although he had many basic diseases and was still worried, according to the current situation, if nothing unexpected happened, surviving for a year would definitely not be a big problem.

"I'll find someone to ask later. I'm not a doctor, so I can't be sure what I say."

Hearing Wen Yan's words, Mao Dan felt more at ease.

He believed in Wen Yan's credibility, otherwise, he would not have come forward proactively this time, and he also believed that Wen Yan would definitely not send him to the Lieyang Department.

It's just that he is currently helping something that can't be considered a help at all. Wen Yan is very happy to help him, and Mao Dan's last worry has disappeared.

He gritted his teeth and took the initiative to talk about the topic he wanted to talk about this time.

"Actually, I came here this time to tell you something else.

I heard that sir wanted to ask about something here, so I came here.

Recently, I needed money, but I couldn't steal or rob it, so someone else told me a way.

More than a hundred kilometers north of the county, there is a small town with a God of Wealth Temple.

Go worship the God of Wealth, and as long as you are pious enough, you can get the Zhenming Coin.

I helped a gambler before, and he told me the news.

I also went to worship once, and on the way back, I saw a gold ingot on the side of the road.

It's the kind of gold ingot that is a ghost coin. It is a real ghost coin and can be exchanged for money.

When I saw that thing, I remembered that the light was exactly the same as what the person I saw picked up.

Only then did I understand that serious gold would not shine so brightly if it was dropped in the soil at night.

It’s a gold ingot made from gold paper!

I held back and didn't dare to pick it up.

Later, I secretly paid attention to Ah Piao who went to the Temple of Wealth.

Some just got some benefits, and some suddenly disappeared.

Today there was another gambler who disappeared and no creditors could find him. "

Mao Dan said this in one breath, as if he was exhausted.

Wen Yan took one look and knew that Mao Dan was ready to die.

I don't know what's involved behind this. If it's revenge, I probably wouldn't dare to involve a living person, but if I want to retaliate against Ah Piao's idiot, I'd definitely dare to do so.

Wen Yan looked at the ashes in his hand and pondered for a moment.

Paper money, the God of Wealth, is really related to money.

Just hearing this, the only one who kept disappearing was Ah Piao, so he never received any attention.

After all, it's normal for Ah Piao to disappear.

If the obsession is gone, it will dissipate. If it is too weak, it will dissipate in the sun. There are very few A Piao who dissipate after fighting.

Wen Yan thought about it and was thinking about taking Mao Dan to Prince Zhu first, when he saw wisps of black smoke starting to come out of Mao Dan's body. The black smoke seemed to be dismantling Mao Dan's ghost body. Dan gritted his teeth.

"Mr. Wen, I leave my daughter's affairs to you."

Wen Yan, with quick eyesight and quick hands, first blessed Maodan with a burst of yang energy, and the speed at which Maodan's ghost body disintegrated suddenly slowed down a bit.

Wen Yan grabbed it in his pocket, took out a piece of snack, and stuffed it directly into Mao Dan's mouth.

Now Wen Yan knew why Mao Dan looked so determined. It turned out that he had known for a long time that if he leaked the secret, he would die.

Wen Yan stretched out his hand and patted Mao Dan, and the fierce Yang Qi was suppressed. He looked at the black smoke that was slowly being suppressed on Mao Dan and laughed angrily.

He thought he was somewhat famous in Guanzhong County, but he didn't expect that someone actually dared to kill him in front of him.
