Seeing Xue Cheng's current appearance with his own eyes, Yuan Chu was greatly stimulated.

She handed over all her remaining savings to Xia Jingsheng: "Mr. Xia, although Ah Cheng's crime is unforgivable, I still hope that he can be buried in peace. Now that his corpse is being abused by others, I really can't sleep or eat. Sir help me."

Xia Jingsheng looked at the money in his hand, remained silent for a long time, and said, "You earned it so hard. Xue Cheng is dead, and even if the body is found, it won't help. Are you sure?"

Yuan Chu nodded firmly.

Xia Jingsheng took over the business. At night, while he was packing his bags, Sun Wenxi suddenly hugged him from behind.

"Really going to Guicheng, why don't you go to Haicheng with me?" Sun Wenxi asked.

The time when Xia Jingsheng went to Guicheng coincided with the day when Sun Wenxi went to Haicheng for business, and the two had to separate for a while.

"Collecting people's money and doing my best, I also want to go to Guicheng to see if I can find out about my mother." Xia Jingsheng held Sun Wenxi's hand and said softly.

"But I can't bear you, what should I do?" Sun Wenxi put his arms around Xia Jingsheng forcefully, making him turn around and look at him.

"Just half a month away..." Xia Jingsheng muttered.

Sun Wenxi glared sharply: "One week!"

Xia Jingsheng: "Ten days."

Sun Wenxi: "Five days!"

Xia Jingsheng watched the time limit being shortened by Sun Wenxi, he laughed and said, "Stop making trouble. I'm going to work, so don't be so nervous."

Sun Wenxi said anxiously: "The young master is so handsome, if some wild man takes a fancy to him and snatches him to be Mrs. Yazhai, where am I going to cry?"

"You're talking nonsense again!" Xia Jingsheng complained, but his body was very honest.

During the time the two were together, Sun Wenxi found out Xia Jingsheng's preferences.

Whenever Sun Wenxi kissed Xia Jingsheng's earlobe lightly, Xia Jingsheng would tremble uncontrollably, and immediately let go of all his defenses.

Sun Wenxi looked at Xia Jingsheng with flushed cheeks, and the possessive desire in his heart became stronger.

He didn't allow anyone to see Xia Jingsheng's weak appearance, and he branded a kiss on Xia Jingsheng's earlobe like a seal.

"Come back soon, I miss you very much."

With Sun Wenxi's sincere words of love, Xia Jingsheng set off.

Different from the prosperous Jiangcheng, Guicheng is a traditional small border town, where most Miao people live, and the economy is a little behind than Jiangcheng.

After Xia Jingsheng went ashore by boat, he first settled in the town, rested and inquired about the address on the envelope.

The inns in Guicheng are run by locals as well as foreigners. Most of the residents are Han Chinese, so the shopkeepers can also speak some Chinese.

Hearing Xia Jingsheng mention the address on the envelope, the shopkeeper stopped pouring water, frowned and said, "Young man from a foreign country, why are you asking about this?"

Xia Jingsheng noticed that the shopkeeper's face was not right, and asked doubtfully, "What's wrong with this address?"

"It's nothing." The shopkeeper looked at Xia Jingsheng with a smile on his face, "We have a new pot of rice cakes baked in the shop, do you want to try it?"

Xia Jingsheng followed the shopkeeper to the back kitchen, and as soon as he lifted the curtain, he saw the shopkeeper heaving a sigh of relief: "Young man, you are really courageous, you can talk about Baotalian as you like?"

"Baota Company?" The name was novel, Xia Jingsheng had never heard of it before.

"The address you just said is in Baota Company." The shopkeeper glanced at the hall and lowered his voice.

Xia Jingsheng was puzzled and said, "But the envelope said Longtan of Life and Death."

"That's right, the Dragon Pool of Life and Death is known as the Ghost Gate Pool. It is said that every member who joins the Pagoda Company has to swim through the Dragon Pool of Life and Death, so that he can be regarded as a brother by the head."

Xia Jingsheng: "But there is something weird in that pool?"

The shopkeeper: "That's not true, but the moment you enter the Longtan of Life and Death, the head of the family will shoot, a total of five bullets. After the head of the house finishes shooting, if the people in the pool are still alive, you can join the pagoda company."

In Xia Jingsheng's view, this system can be described as absurd.

The aim of the bullet is not fixed, nor is the time when the shot is fired. The master with the earthen gun in his hand can kill people in an instant.

Xia Jingsheng: "Since it's so scary, is there anyone going to join the Pagoda Company?"

The shopkeeper looked at Xia Jingsheng carefully, and there were two old wrinkles in his eyebrows and eyes: "outsider, you are wearing good materials, so you don't know the hardships here. We have many mountains and little land, and we can only rely on farming. There is not enough to eat. The land of the peasant households has been taken by the rich. If the strong men do not want to work for the landlords, they can only become bandits. Under the leadership of Shi Lianchang, the pagoda company has food, drink and money , It’s been a fairy day.”

Xia Jingsheng: "Company Commander Shi, has he been a soldier?"

The shopkeeper: "I have never been a soldier. Company Commander Shi's real name is Shi Mazi. He is born to be a bandit. He has big ideas. He once said that if he was given a company, he would definitely be a company commander. If he was given a battalion, he would definitely be a company commander." If you want to be a battalion commander, this title will stay like this."

Seeing Xia Jingsheng nodding his head, the shopkeeper had a good impression of this handsome young man, and kindly persuaded him: "The world is very chaotic, young man, I advise you, don't go too deep. Guicheng is full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. You can't keep everything on the road." Beggars are all "snake ghosts", and once they catch you, they will be in trouble."

Xia Jingsheng thanked the shopkeeper, and was about to go outside, but was grabbed by the shopkeeper: "Be careful, just now in the lobby, a group of people have been watching you. There are too many disputes among the gangsters here, you may It was being watched."

Xia Jingsheng nodded at the shopkeeper, and after a closer look, he discovered the melancholy hidden under the shopkeeper's smile.

Xia Jingsheng: "Is there something bothering the store owner?"

The shopkeeper was startled when he heard the words, and blurted out: "How do you know...?"

Xia Jingsheng looked closely at the shopkeeper's face, saw that the child palace in front of him was calm and gloomy, and said firmly: "The worry is also related to the children."

The shopkeeper was really surprised. Xia Jingsheng, a passing stranger, was able to say so many things correctly, so he must not be an ordinary person.

At this moment, the kitchen curtain was raised again, and a woman in a tie-dyed shirt walked in.

With just one glance, Xia Jingsheng knew that the woman was seriously ill, her eyes were dull, her complexion was sallow, and she was haggard.

When the shopkeeper saw him, he hurriedly said, "You're still sick, what are you doing?"

The woman smiled lightly and said, "Father, I'm much better now, I want to make some rice cakes..." Before she finished speaking, there was a heart-piercing cough.

The shopkeeper hurriedly helped her to sit down, and while helping her calm down, he said angrily: "You, you like to be brave. If you are sick, you will recover quickly."

The woman shook her head: "Abba, I know my own body."

She has been ill for a long time, invited all the doctors in the town and the highly respected Miao doctors in the village, and took several doses of heavy medicine, but her body became weaker and weaker, with no sign of improvement at all.

The woman couldn't bear to see her father running around with her illness all day long, so she came down to the field and wanted to help her father with some work.

He never thought that his body would not be able to withstand the toss at all, and he coughed badly after only saying a few words.

Seeing this, Xia Jingsheng rushed to the shopkeeper and said, "If you don't mind, I can take a look at Qianyuan's illness."

The shopkeeper was taken aback, and his first reaction was incredible.

So many experienced doctors failed to take care of their daughter's illness, so why should this young man in front of him boast so much.

While the shopkeeper was hesitating, the woman looked at Xia Jingsheng.

She had noticed this handsome young man for a long time, and seeing her father's face as if he was facing a formidable enemy, she couldn't help laughing and said, "Let this gentleman try, after all, it won't be worse than it is now."

Xia Jingsheng took a step forward and said softly, "I've offended you."

He lifted the woman's eyelids and knocked on them, then took her pulse carefully, frowned and said: "This is the sign of cold air entering the body."

Xia Jingsheng took out the needle case from his luggage and administered the needle to the woman.

At first, the woman only felt sore and swollen where the needle was pricked, and then there was a chill in her body, which made her almost unbearable.

Seeing his daughter clenched her teeth, cold sweat dripped from her forehead, the shopkeeper was anxious, but he didn't dare to disturb Xia Jingsheng.

After the initial discomfort passed, the woman gradually relaxed. At this moment, a warm current gathered from her limbs to her chest, neutralizing the biting chill.

After Xia Jingsheng applied the needles, the woman's complexion became slightly better.

This was enough to make the shopkeeper happy. He was about to thank him when Xia Jingsheng asked, "Your house has a high front and a low back?"

It can be said that the front is high and the rear is low, that is, there are tall buildings blocking the front, but the back is empty without any backing.As a result, people living in the house will have difficulty breathing, Yang Qi will be blocked, and the elderly, weak, women and children at home will easily get sick.

The shopkeeper had no doubts about Xia Jingsheng's ability at this moment, and said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, there is a two-story earthen building in front of my house, and it is indeed higher than my house."

"If you want to completely cure your girl's illness, you need to move." Xia Jingsheng raised his hand to write down the prescription, "According to this prescription, take the medicine."

The shopkeeper was overwhelmed with surprise, and thanked Xia Jingsheng repeatedly.

Xia Jingsheng shook his head and said, "Since you took the trouble to tell me, I will repay you. To be honest, I still have something to ask."

"Sir, please tell me." The shopkeeper cut the freshly steamed rice cake into pieces and handed it to Xia Jingsheng.

The rice cake tasted sweet, but Xia Jingsheng's question was not appropriate.

He whispered: "I heard that Guicheng has a technique of expelling corpses."

Hearing this, the shopkeeper's face changed, and the eager tone just now also became cold: "I don't know what the master said about expelling corpses."

"I don't know?" Xia Jingsheng frowned, "I can't see it. If I really don't know, what happened to your girl's eyes?"

Rumor has it that the exorcist's appearance is no different from that of ordinary people, the only feature is a thin brown line on the white of his eyes, which is hard to spot unless you look carefully.

But just now when Xia Jingsheng was examining the woman, he accidentally saw the thin brown line in her eyes.

It is indeed very hidden, even Xia Jingsheng would have difficulty finding it if he didn't look carefully.

The shopkeeper was cornered and had no way out.He sighed and confessed helplessly: "I am a corpse exorcist, and so is my daughter."

Originally, the work of expelling corpses was done for men. The older generation believed that men were full of yang energy and could suppress the evil spirit of corpses.

But the shopkeeper only had such a daughter, and she didn't want the skills to be lost, so she also taught the skills to her daughter.
