Those juniors suddenly became submissive.Then Father Wu turned around and said to Shen Yue: "Boy from the Shen family, I see that you have great supernatural powers, and you are backed by Master Lu. If you want to, can you help us find the gods and gods of Lingxu Palace to help us do a ritual ceremony?" .

These foreigners live not far away, but after all, they will be regarded as dead in other places. When the time comes, we will collect some money from the ancestral hall, collect the bones of these people, and send them back to their original place, so that they can be buried. How about you? "

Shen Yue didn't quite get used to the old man's questioning voice, but hearing that it wasn't a bad thing, he agreed.

Just at this time, a voice came from outside the alley, "Shen Jiazi, you are a kind master." Just then I saw a man wearing the clothes of a yamen servant, walking with a limp, and behind him was a strong man, standing upright. With a big belly and a fleshy face.

It was Li Zizi and Zhang Hengtuo.

"Master Li is really flattering you." Shen Yue was a little embarrassed by what was said, so she quickly said a few words politely.

"You should already know about Shen Yue's matter." Zhang Hengduo said, his voice sounded thick and simple, and it sounded unusually simple and honest.

"Well, I've already heard about Father Wu. It's a pity for these refugees, but if they don't be rectified, something may happen." Shen Yue said.

"We also think so, but there are other things in the city that are currently being detained, and the elder is unable to deal with it." Li Zizi said.

He sighed: "The former elder was only focused on talking, even with the inventory of this government office, he lost all of his money. There are many deficits in the government office. Now that he has caught rats, he can't get the food back.

I'm ashamed to say that we didn't bring food back for a long time, and the mother-in-law in this family has been arguing for more than a month. Li Zizi also had a distressed look on his face.

Father Wu also sighed at this time, and said: "If not, let the master go to Li Shanren to borrow some. This Li Shanren is kind and generous, and he will help out when he hears about it."

But Li Zizi suddenly said: "It is absolutely impossible." After finishing speaking, there was a somewhat unpredictable expression on his face, Shen vaguely seemed to feel that the mountain rain was coming, and Li Zizi and others might know it something.

The old man Wu was choked by Li Xizi, and he couldn't say anything immediately.

But Li Lizi changed his face and said: "Our master has always enforced the law impartially. Don't mention the matter of borrowing food from the merchant. I know that Li Yuanwai is a very good person, but , public and private.”

Father Wu was like waking up from a dream, nodding his head again and again.

Shen Yue saw that Li Zizi seemed to be having a good time chatting with them, and thinking that he still had work to do, he quickly said his goodbyes and left the place.

When we arrived at Daoxiang Building, Boss Liang was not there at the door. There was a boy sitting at the door, but he was Xiao Xie, who was a good friend with Shen Yue in the past. He was also an aborigine in Ganzhou City. These chickens, ducks and geese, [-]% of the live chickens and ducks that Shen Yue and Youde burned back then came from their homes.

Seeing Shen Yue approaching, Xiao Xie hurriedly greeted him and said, "You son of a bitch!" Shen Yue stepped forward and said, "Xiao Xie, why are you here, shopkeeper Liang?"

Xiao Xie scratched his head and stood up. This little Xie looks good, but he is a little bald at such a young age. Shen Yue hurriedly reached out and knocked off his dishonest hand, saying: "Don't grab it, Grab it again, I’m afraid you’ll be bald.”

Only then did Xiao Xie straighten his posture and said, "Isn't there a rumor in this city recently?" Xiao Xie looked around thoughtfully, and at the same time beckoned Shen Yue to come closer.

Shen Yue listened and asked curiously: "What rumors are there?" Xiao Xie said: "Isn't it just that Mr. Li used poisonous rice to relieve disasters? So shopkeeper Liang was quite nervous. You must know that in our store, the back chef The rice grains are all from the Li family's rice shop."

Shen Yue was thoughtful, all this was just too coincidental, but Xiao Xie saw that Shen Yue didn't respond and said: "This made shopkeeper Liang uneasy, and the butler of Li's family came to the store this afternoon.

Shopkeeper Liang just went to deal with it. "

"So I made an exception, and I won't be working today. It's just that those of us who are supposed to go to work can't leave. Boss Liang told us to give Daoxianglou a good cleaning." After finishing speaking, the young man shook his hand. rag.

There was a burst of dust in shock, and Shen Yue waved his hand.Xiao Xie said, "Why don't you help us clean up together since you're here."

Shen Yue hurriedly withdrew a long way, covered his nose, but felt a little strange in his heart, and said, "The butler of the Li family? You don't want to come here. Speaking of which, the matter of Mr. Li's delivery of poisonous food has been settled?"

Only then did Xiao Xie put away the rag, tilted his neck and said, "I think it's understandable that Mr. Li sells some poisonous food, but if this starving person has a bite to eat, it will be a disaster.

You must know that without this mouthful of food, these hungry people would have died long ago.This mouthful of food might save some people's lives.You say no?

As for whether it will be sold to our store, I don’t think so. Boss Liang is not a bun. If he really acts like this, Boss Liang may be the first to go up and smash Li’s rice shop. How can he talk about the price so calmly? .

Do you say yes or no? "Xiao Xie analyzed it for a while, but Shen Yue felt chills all over his body.

"It's reasonable for you to say that." Shen Yue reluctantly agreed.

Xiao Xie said: "You know, this fertile water does not flow into outsiders' fields, and good food naturally circulates in the cities near us. I know that some of the farms where our father bought goods sold those sick chickens and ducks to the countryside. people.

It's not necessarily that someone eats it to death, it's like this, so you don't have to be surprised.Anyone who wants to make money must have this kind of means. "

Shen Yue nodded, Xiao Xie wanted to say more, but Shen Yue waved his hand and walked out.

Shen Yue walked this way, but felt that the voices of the bustling people around him became abnormally noisy, and he didn't know how to judge such good and evil.

At this time, for some reason, the top of the head suddenly darkened, and a cloud of mist suddenly appeared in the originally cloudless sky. Everyone was discussing, and Shen Yue also raised his head and looked into the sky.

Shen Yue felt a little unusual when he saw it, he could only see that there was someone walking through the clouds, but before he could see clearly, there was a heavy rain pouring down.

He hurriedly covered his head and ran towards the charity place, but before he could go far, he bumped into a person.

He hurriedly raised his head, and was about to apologize, but he saw a face full of wrinkles, and now the upper left half of his body seemed to be wrapped in gauze, and he was holding an umbrella and smiling at the boy.

"Boy from the Shen family, why are you running so fast?" the old man said.

"Old Taoist, you..." The young man pointed to the wound on the old Taoist's chest, and was speechless for a while.

The old man didn't take it seriously, he laughed and said, "Come on, our grandpa and grandson will also have a drink."

He stretched out his hand to hold the young man, and strode towards a small wine shed by the road. I don't know when the wine shed opened here, but there were no customers around, only a shopkeeper wearing a small hat was busy inside.

Seeing someone coming in, the shopkeeper nodded and let them into the house.

"Shopkeeper, first serve two jugs of good wine, and a pot of peanuts." The old man didn't hesitate, he hurried in, put away the bamboo umbrella, and told the storekeeper.

The storekeeper didn't answer, and quickly took two jugs of wine from the stove, put them together on the wooden table, and put two small wine glasses in front of the two of them.

But Lu Xiu said: "Shopkeeper, bring two sea bowls, this small wine cup is too petty." As soon as the words finished, the shopkeeper quickly placed the two sea bowls in front of the two of them.

"I don't know why this wine shed is built here. It's really a pillow when you fall asleep. It's okay, drinking like this is the only way to enjoy yourself." Lu Xiu said to himself.

He looked at the shopkeeper busy in and out, thoughtfully, and finally said: "This shopkeeper seems to be dumb."

At this time, Shen Yue just asked, "I'm talking about the old Taoist priest. What's the matter with your chest wound?"

The old Taoist poured himself a glass of wine, and said, "It's just that I met a few cultists who didn't have eyesight on the road, and the old Taoist killed them with a single sword. It's not a serious injury, don't worry too much."

After all, he raised his wine and took a sip.Shen Yue poured himself half a bowl, and was not in a hurry to drink it, but said, "This heavy rain came at a strange time."

"That's right, the sun was shining brightly just now, and when I went out as an old man, it rained heavily. It's not unusual, but if there are ghosts and monsters, it's fine to kill them with a sword. Now it's time to drink."

I don't know where the old man's lofty spirit came from, but he drank the wine in the bowl in one gulp.

"Speaking of the old man, why did you come outside today because of your mood." Shen Yue took a sip, feeling that the wine was very strong, just one sip, it caused his throat to be cut like a knife on fire.

But it's strange that he didn't see the slightest drunkenness.

The old Taoist pondered for a moment and said, "Shen Yue, do you ever feel that the mountains and rains are coming in the city of Ganzhou in recent days. It's a bizarre scene." The old Taoist flicked the long sword that was left aside.

The blade hummed softly like a dragon, as if he had sensed something abnormal.The old man took a sip of the wine in his glass, and felt a cool air spread from his throat.It was a coincidence, and I don't know why, my mood is as calm as ice, and the alcohol smell is calm.

The taste of the wine is sweet, I don't know how much wine I drank when I traveled all over the world, but I have never heard of such fine nectar and jade dew.

The old Taoist shouted loudly: "Shopkeeper, your wine is really good! What's your name?"

The shopkeeper didn't answer, just pointed to the bracket on the side of the wine shed, on which was pasted a piece of yellowed paper with only three big characters written on it, called "Penglai View".

The old Taoist thought for a while, then couldn't help clapping his hands, and ignored the origin of the wine.

But Shen Yue who was at the side said: "You say so, but this city is full of unusualness." After finishing speaking, he revealed to the old Taoist what he saw and heard in the past few days.

When the old Taoist heard it for the first time, he thought it might be a coincidence. When he heard that the poisonous food was raging in the disaster area, he slapped the table and only knocked off a piece of the table.

The movement couldn't help but caused the shopkeeper to raise his head, Shen Yue hurriedly smoothed things over, but the shopkeeper slowly lowered his head again, not knowing what to do.

Lu Xiu took a sip of wine suddenly, only to feel that there were thousands of blades slashing back and forth in his throat, and his face turned red all of a sudden. Swallow the drink.

He seemed to have remembered something, and quickly glanced at the yellow paper again.

"Old man, tell me, is there really something wrong with Li Yuanwai's family? Otherwise, the rumors spread from all directions are more or less groundless. These black-hearted merchants have more or less done some business.

It's not surprising. "Shen Yue gulped down his drink sullenly.

And Lu Xiu said: "If Li Yuanwai just made this poisonous food, that's all. Naturally, there will be justice to punish him, it's just sooner or later.

Now the Lord Yamen of the Ganzhou City Government is one of the three fires for new officials to take office. Now that the bank is empty, he wished to catch such a fat sheep as a warning to others.It's just that from the current point of view, at least Li Yuanwai has not leaked his feet to the outside world.

You see, just take what you saw today, Mr. Wu, have you ever heard a little bad word about Mr. Li?When the time comes, Li Yuanwai will push the responsibility out, catch a few scapegoats from the store, and then he will be able to push the blame inside out.

He is still the kind-hearted Li Shanren, but he has lost a few helpers. "

Shen Yue's brows became more and more tense, he took a sip of the wine imitating the old way, but the taste of the wine also changed, only choking the young man to keep coughing.

"Then what should I do?" Shen Yue raised his eyes to look at the old man, but saw that the old man had gradually calmed down, and he was no longer filled with righteous indignation just now.

"But I know a little more than you. The Taoist priests I killed have an inexplicable relationship with Li Yuanwai. And do you remember the female ghost you and I captured together that day? "Lu Xiu put down the bowl in hand and said leisurely.
