At this moment, she mentioned Xiao Qing's name in the conversation, which made Murong Bai's heart skip a beat again.
Although it is very clear that Bai Suzhen is not an unreasonable person, but what she said at this time should be mostly a joke.
But how dare Murong Bai bet on this?
He hurriedly organized the words in his mind, and explained to Bai Suzhen, "I remember that time, I was boating alone in the East China Sea, and suddenly I met Penglai's treasure ship..."
Chapter 1339
Chapter 1339
The industries that Zhu Yun manages are actually not too many.
Because Murong Bai never intended to rely on these things to make money, Zhu Yun was in charge of only one bookstore, two restaurants, and three silk and satin houses.
However, Zhu Yun really likes the feeling of being busy, and in the process of handling business affairs, Zhu Yun also has a lot of understanding of the world's principles, which makes his originally slightly impetuous mood gradually A lot of peace.
It is conceivable that after Zhu Yun finished his experience in the human world and returned to Yunxi Mountain with Murong Bai, his cultivation base and Taoism will surely win a breakthrough like leaps and bounds.
Of course, these are still things to come.
Just for now, ever since Murong Bai was worried that the Buddhist sect might make another arrangement against Zhu Yun, he specially called Zhu Yun back, and after giving him careful instructions, when Zhu Yun went out again, he brought more people with him than before. Cautious and careful.
However, because Zhu Yun's here was originally a loophole deliberately set aside by Murong Bai, so Zhu Yun's prudence and carefulness are not completely invulnerable.
However, on this day, after Zhu Yun got Murong Bai's instruction, a few Wulin people dressed in bunts came to the restaurant he opened in the south of the city.
Listening to the accents of these people, it is obvious that they are not local people in Hangzhou. Listening carefully, they have some characteristics of Lingnan.
The waiter who waited on their table was just a young boy newly recruited in the shop, and he couldn't understand the foreign accent, so when ordering, he asked repeatedly.
But he didn't expect to offend one of the burly men, who was so unhappy that he grabbed the waiter by the neck to ask for an explanation. Even if the shopkeeper came out to apologize, he still didn't want to let go of the matter.
In the end, he almost dropped the table, but the shopkeeper saw that the situation was not right, and guessed that these people might not be kind, so he sent someone to the yamen to invite a few arresters to come over quickly.
With the face of Murong Bai and the Li family's father and son, the arresters of the yamen arrived very quickly, and because of the arrival of these arresters, the sudden disturbance in the store was avoided.
Of course, because this restaurant is not an ordinary restaurant after all, with Murong Bai as the owner behind the scene, Xie Yuangong, in terms of taste and grade, even if it can't compare with the most famous Louwailou in the city, it is It is also favored by many cultural people, so it is rare to see such a scene today.
So this matter quickly became a hot topic in the restaurant today. While chatting, there was the master who had traveled all over the world and had a lot of experience. The more you think about these strong men, the more familiar they look.
After thinking about it carefully, it suddenly occurred to me that one of those strong men seemed to be a famous bandit somewhere in the south of the Five Ridges.
After he said this, it immediately caused an uproar in the audience.
But at this time those strong men have already left, and the few police officers who just came to the restaurant have gone elsewhere, so no one is thinking of reporting to the police again, just sighing with emotion on such a topic After a while, he moved his words to other places.
However, no one expected that on that night, these rough men who seemed to have martial arts skills were discovered and all died in an inn not far from the restaurant. Moreover, Still, the heart and lungs in his body were directly taken out by bloody means.
The death conditions of these people are no different from those who died in the heart-piercing case before. It is obvious that after only a few days of silence, the mysterious demon who committed many bloody cases in Hangzhou city has been reborn. He started his hunting again.
Because Jinshan Temple distributed exorcisms on a large scale, the people in the city just relaxed a little bit, and thus hung up again.
However, one wave is not smooth, and another wave rises again.
In the past, heart-pounding cases only happened at night, and the people who died were mostly gamblers and beggars.
As for the few strong men from other lands who died this time, even though they did not carry identification documents on them, the government can only treat them as nameless corpses and stop them in Yizhuang.
But if what the drinker in the restaurant said that day is true, then these people, as bandits in a certain place in the south of the Five Ridges, are obviously not good people.
That is to say, as far as these few strong men are concerned, the people who died in the heart-extracting case before, although their deaths were miserable, their deaths would not cause too much turmoil among the people in the city after all.
But only on the second day after this new heart-piercing case happened, another case happened in the daytime.
The method of committing the crime is exactly the same, not only Li Gongfu, the arrester in the yamen who is in charge of this serial heart-piercing case, but even the children on the street say that the person who committed this bloody case must also be that mysterious demon.
Even though this time the opponent chose to kill in the daytime, even though this time, what he killed were a few innocent people walking on the road.
Such a change made all the people in the city feel insecure. They were afraid that they would be the next to suffer, so they chose to reduce the number of times they went out.
So much so that in the city of Hangzhou, the bustling scene that had just appeared briefly during the Dragon Boat Festival disappeared again because of the threat of the heart-preaching case.
The atmosphere lingering all over the city has become stagnant and depressed, so that the prefect of Hangzhou and the king of Liang, who hadn't paid much attention to the case of digging out their hearts, actually took action at this time, ordering Li Gongfu to seize the time to find the murderer's whereabouts In addition, they also sent their capable people to participate in the investigation of this serial case of digging out their hearts.
But it's a pity that even if the magistrate's yamen had the treasured sword "presented" by Murong Bai, even if there were some master worshipers in Liang Wang's mansion, even Murong Bai himself couldn't find too many useful clues at the beginning. Finding an answer in a short period of time is obviously not an easy task.
As a result, the people in the city gradually lost confidence in the Yamen during the whole day of panic.
Many people pinned their hopes on the Jinshan Temple outside the city, and on the well-known Zen Master Fahai of Jinshan Temple.
Many people went to Jinshan Temple to pray for amulets to exorcise evil spirits, and many people even went to Jinshan Temple to petition, hoping to ask Zen Master Fahai to come forward to kill demons in Hangzhou City.
Fa Hai did not choose to show up at the first time.
It wasn't until more than a dozen old men who were nearly a hundred years old personally led the team and led people to Jinshan Temple to beg, that Fa Hai with a face of compassion finally appeared in front of everyone.
Chapter 1340 King Liang's Little Joy
Chapter 1340
"Amitabha."
Facing the group of leading elders, Fa Hai first uttered the Buddha's call, and then, with a face full of compassion, he said to the crowd, "The poor monk already knows the reason for your visit."
"The poor monk has also investigated the demons that ravaged Hangzhou, but..."
Speaking of this, Fa Hai's words paused slightly, and one of the leading elders immediately stood up and asked Fa Hai anxiously, "But what?"
