After seeing off the guests, Li Mingshan and his parents sat in the room and opened the red envelopes, keeping accounts while opening, complaining that so-and-so was too stingy, but so-and-so was very generous.

Suddenly, Li Mingshan's hands shook!

"This red envelope... this red envelope..."

He looked as if he had a mouthful of phlegm stuck in his throat, unable to speak or swallow.

Li's mother came over and said, "What's the matter? Is there something wrong with this red envelope?"

"It's not right..."

Li Mingshan handed the red envelope to his mother.

The mother took the red envelope suspiciously, but the moment she took it, her hands and feet trembled in fright!

"Ah! How could this be! This is..."

The person fell to the ground, and the red envelope also fell to the ground.

The Li family's father came over and said, "What's the situation! A single red envelope can scare you into such a ghostly state!"

He bent down to pick up the red envelope, and—

"This, this, this... Hurry up and send it to the police station! It's okay, it will be fine!"

……

……

Xu Guangcheng's request to Li Mingshan and others to cut down trees made Zhong Wuchuan very puzzled, always feeling that Old Xu had something to hide from him.

While Xu Guangcheng was taking a bath, he ran to knock on the glass door: "Old Xu, you have many choices to punish them. Why do you have to cut down trees or peach trees? There are not many peach trees on Zhongshan Mountain. This The condition is too difficult, change it!"

"Who told you that there are no peach trees in Zhongshan?" Xu Guangcheng said through the glass door, "Since I want them to cut down 49 peach trees each, I must let them cut down enough peach trees!"

"Old Xu, why are you so persistent all of a sudden?"

Zhong Wuchuan was full of confusion. He felt that Xu Guangcheng's condition was probably to retaliate against these guys for forcing them to drink.

"Small eighteenth-tier cities have a lot of bad habits that outsiders find unacceptable. It's polite to persuade people to drink at the wine table. When they make a bridal chamber, they almost..."

bang——

The glass door was pushed open suddenly, and Xu Guangcheng walked out while wiping the water, and asked, "What happened?"

Zhong Wuchuan suddenly didn't know where to put his eyes, turned his head and said: "This happened several years ago. My mother told me that she said that someone in the town took advantage of the opportunity of the bridal chamber to hang firecrackers on the bridegroom and set them on fire. By the time everyone rescued the groom, he was completely crippled, with multiple burns all over his body, and his face was also ruined..."

"Have the troublemakers been punished accordingly?"

"How to punish? They are all relatives of the groom's parents, and they didn't mean it. In the end, this matter was private. Several families shared the medical expenses, and promised each family how much money they would give the groom's family every month, paying 20 Year!"

When mentioning this matter, Zhong Wuchuan was also very angry, saying: "A good happy event has just become a hurdle in the hearts of the whole family. If there is trouble with the people, then they will not know..."

Xu Guangcheng's focus was on another point.

He started to get dressed and asked Zhong Wuchuan: "What's the name of that unlucky groom? How are you doing now?"

"The name of the unlucky ghost is Chen Yuhang, and his father, Chen Jinfa, is the owner of Afa Snacks." Zhong Wuchuan said, "After this incident, although the bride didn't ask for a divorce right away, she didn't stay for long... It is said that it was because of Chen Yuhang's second marriage. My brother was accidentally caught by the firecrackers hung up by his good brothers when he was building a new house...you know!"

"That's really a double whammy!"

While speaking, Xu Guangcheng had already put on his clothes, and smoothed his hair casually, all the drops of water on the ends of his hair disappeared.

He turned around and said to Zhong Wuchuan: "Did Chen Yuhang's wife leave when Cui Mingzhu came to Afa Snack to serve as a waiter?"

"It's been half a year," Zhong Wuchuan said. "When recruiting, none of the girls in the town came to interview. Everyone knows that Afa Snack's recruitment of waiters is just a cover, and the real purpose is to choose the right one for his son." A capable daughter-in-law. The people in the town naturally sympathize with what happened to Chen Yuhang, but who would want to marry a useless person?!"

"Is Cui Mingzhu willing?" Xu Guangcheng asked.

Zhong Wuchuan said: "My mother told me that Chen Yuhang was disfigured and then lost his wife by his brothers using firecrackers. I haven't even met anyone on Cui Mingzhu's side, so how can I know what she thinks?" Maybe it’s because I have to suffer in silence to keep my job, or maybe it’s because we’ve been working together for a long time, and we see each other...Anyway, Cui Mingzhu is dead now..."

"It's true, everyone is dead."

Xu Guangcheng seemed to be talking meaningfully when the phone rang suddenly.

The phone number of the police station.

After Xu Guangcheng answered the phone, he said to Zhong Wuchuan: "There is a new situation."

"Dead? Or..."

"The death red envelope game has started a new round!"

When he said this, Xu Guangcheng's complexion was extremely serious.

……

……

When Xu Guangcheng brought Zhong Wuchuan into the office, the police handling the case had just stabilized the three members of the Li family who came to report the case.

When they saw Xu Guangcheng, they were surprised: "Old Xu, you are not..."

"I'm a special investigator."

Xu Guangcheng didn't explain much, sat across from the three of them, and said, "What's going on?"

"Red envelope...red envelope..."

Li Mingshan repeated tremblingly, pointing to a red envelope on the tea table.

"Is there anything wrong with this red envelope?"

Zhong Wuchuan picked up the red envelope, looked around, and found it very ordinary.

Li Mingshan was so frightened that he lost his soul, and said repeatedly: "This red envelope was sent by Cui Mingzhu! Look carefully at the name on the red envelope!"

"name?!"

Zhong Wuchuan looked at the corner of the red envelope, and sure enough, he saw the three pencil words "Cui Mingzhu" crooked like a primary school student, and his back immediately felt cold!

"Isn't Cui Mingzhu already... How can I still... This red envelope must be deliberately messing with me! Trying to scare me!"

"We thought so too, so we came to report the crime immediately! We also brought the list of all the people who came to accompany the gang tonight."

Li Mingshan's mother took out the name list and handed it to the police station.

"Checked everything?"

The three members of the Li family nodded together: "I have checked many times, and I am sure there is no problem."

"Thank you for your great assistance," said the director, "this list and this red envelope are left here for the time being."

"Eh!"

The Li family hurriedly put down their things, and then asked, "Are you all right? Can we go?"

"If there is nothing else, you can go."

The police did not retain the three members of the Li family.

Li Mingshan had ghosts in his heart. After standing up, he glanced at Xu Guangcheng and said, "Can we really go?"

"Is there any miracle you can do if you stay?"

Li Mingshan was relieved by Xu Guangcheng's harsh words, and moved away.

Zhong Wuchuan asked Xu Guangcheng: "Why let them go? Don't you think it's weird that they received Cui Mingzhu's followers?"

"It's because of the weirdness that we have to let them go back."

Xu Guangcheng picked up the red envelope on the table, opened it, shook out the hundred yuan bill inside, and carefully put it into a sealed bag.

"Make sure, who's fingerprints are on the money, and when was the money withdrawn from which bank and which teller machine?"

"We're going right away!"

The police officers took the hundred-dollar bill cautiously.

Cui Mingzhu's case has made them feel heavy recently. The new death red envelope makes the case develop in a weirder direction, but it also allows them to see the dawn of solving the case.

But Xu Guangcheng's expression was not relaxed.

He shook the red card that had already taken the cash, and shook out a note.

The note landed lightly, but the police who had already walked away immediately surrounded it when they saw it!

"what is this?!"

Everyone is around the note, with piercing eyes.

Xu Guangcheng picked up the note with his gloved hand and said, "The paper is very special, maybe it can be used as a breakthrough."

"really?"

Everyone showed joyful expressions.

One of them asked: "What is written on the note? Why can't I understand a single word?"

Hearing this, Xu Guangcheng observed intently, and said, "It's so strange, this kind of writing has not been used for a long time!"

"You know these words?"

Everyone was shocked.

Zhong Wuchuan urged even more: "Old Xu, what is written on it?"

Xu Guangcheng said: "This is the earliest oracle bone inscription, and I can't read it all. I can barely read half of the text. It seems to be a prayer. The object of the prayer is... the dragon... the dragon?!"

His eyes became serious again.

"I didn't expect this matter to have such a twist!" He said, "It turns out that we have been in the wrong direction from the beginning to the end! No wonder we haven't gained anything until now! That's how it is!"

"What is so so? Which one is so so?!"

Not only Zhong Wuchuan was confused, but other people in the office also felt that Xu Guangcheng's words were very weird.

Everyone looked at Xu Guangcheng with curious eyes.

Xu Guangcheng saw that everyone was staring at him curiously, so he smiled and said, "The time is not yet ripe. I will give you a detailed answer when it is mature."

"but……"

Zhong Wuchuan wanted to ask again, but Xu Guangcheng said: "It's getting late, we have to go back to rest! Ah Chuan, didn't you say that you will take me to climb Zhongshan to worship the tomb of the gods tomorrow!"

"When do I..."

Zhong Wuchuan was about to say "no", but received a hint from Xu Guangcheng, so he could only change his words and said, "Look at my poor memory, I can even forget such a thing! I'm sorry, we have to climb Zhongshan Mountain tomorrow, but today we have to Rest early! Go back first! Let's talk about something after tomorrow! Goodbye!"
