Hearing the sound, we turned our heads and saw a middle-aged man with a big belly walked in with the help of someone.

The man was really fatter, the flesh on his face almost squeezed his facial features so that he couldn't see clearly, he really didn't look good, he had two small mustaches, and between his grins, he could faintly see the golden color of the back molars , Even the dentures are all gold.

A complete profiteer.

Seeing us, mung bean-sized eyes scanned each of us, and finally settled on Lin Feng who was wearing Taoist robes.

"This must be the celestial master!" Shopkeeper Jia took two quick steps, his whole body trembling, he grasped Lin Feng's hand, with a mournful face:

"Tianshi, you have to save my life!"

Lin Feng was a little at a loss by his sudden enthusiasm, and looked at Lu Chen and me in a panic while twitching his hands.

Duan Kai coughed and coughed, Song Bai stood up and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Jia, right? Our Celestial Master passed by here and found that there is a strong ghost here, so we want to come in and find out what's going on."

Hearing Song Bai's words, the shopkeeper Jia turned his head to look at him, trying to open his eyes wide: "The Heavenly Master really saw that I was haunted?"

Song Bai stepped forward to help Lin Feng break free from Shopkeeper Jia's palm, and said with a smile, "Of course we can see that, and wanting to help you is a good thing. Could it be that Shopkeeper Jia sees us as liars? "

Shopkeeper Jia waved his hands hastily, and said with a smile: "Everyone can see that they are not ordinary people, and there will be no people like you in the world."

I curled my lips, this shopkeeper Jia is considered smart, our group, not to mention others, just Duan Kai sitting there, the whole body's aura can't be concealed, shopkeeper Jia just came to take a look, and he knew that we were not liars Otherwise, there would be no scene where he would hold Lin Feng and not let go.

I glanced at him lazily, and said deliberately: "I said shopkeeper Jia, we are here, but we haven't had any hot tea yet."

Shopkeeper Jia smiled brightly when he heard the words, rubbed his nose, pleaded guilty, and hurriedly called his servants to replace us with new tea. I took a sip, tsk tsk, authentic Longjing.

After sitting down again, Song Bai asked him to tell the story again.

Shopkeeper Jia told me what happened again, but it didn't differ from what Song Bai told us before, it was all about haunting and murder.

"Can you report to the official?" Duan Kai said slowly from the side.

Shopkeeper Jia poured garlic over his head: "Why don't you dare to report to the police? It's a human life." After that, his face darkened, and his tone changed a few times: "Yuhan had a good relationship with me before, she lost her life for no reason, we It’s also very uncomfortable.” As she spoke, she wiped his eyes with her sleeve.

Song Bai said a few words of comfort, and Duan Kai then asked, "Did you do an autopsy? What do you say?"

Shopkeeper Jia shook his head, put his left hand on his right arm, and said, "The concubine was murdered by an evil ghost, and the circumstances of her death were tragic and extremely unknown, so she was cremated hastily without waiting for the autopsy."

"Oh?" Duan Kai raised his eyebrows: "The magistrate agrees?"

Shopkeeper Jia chuckled dryly: "Although the magistrate is not very happy, it was indeed killed by an evil spirit. All my servants saw it. In order to avoid more troubles, I ordered it to be burned."

Holding the teacup, I exchanged a glance with Duan Kai, there is something wrong with Shopkeeper Jia.

Lu Chen and Wenyun didn't listen or ask, they sat quietly and counted the tea leaves in the teacup, Lin Feng dragged his cheeks and didn't know what he was thinking.

The fat lying on my knees dozed quietly, and the scene was a little deserted.

Fortunately, Song Bai was very good at winking, and said, "If you say that, it's no wonder, but shopkeeper Jia, can you show us that haunted dagger.

Shopkeeper Jia smiled and said: "It was possible, but unfortunately, the day before yesterday I sent the dagger to Bao'an Temple outside the city. It has been several days since I wanted to suppress it with the Buddhist spirit there, and it is too late to get it now. .”

After a pause, he continued: "Why don't you stay here, everyone, I will send someone to pick it up tomorrow, and the Heavenly Master will take a look at it for me, what do you think?"

Duan Kai smiled: "That's really a coincidence, that's fine, but we don't live here, so we'll visit tomorrow."

After saying that, I got up, and I stood up holding the fat meat, and the fat meat suddenly jumped onto the face of shopkeeper Jia with a meow, and shopkeeper Jia let out a hiccup, his fat body was inconvenient to move, and he fell backwards, Duan Kai With quick eyes and quick hands, he grabbed his right arm.

"oops!"

Shopkeeper Jia shouted even more cheerfully.

I hurried up to lift the fat off, Duan Kai frowned: "Is shopkeeper Jia okay?"

Shopkeeper Jia took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the sweat off his face: "It's okay,...it's okay."

Duan Kai patted him on the shoulder and led us out.

Watching Jia's mansion close the gate behind him, Duan Kai curled his mouth and said, "Little magic stick, you did a good job."

The fat in his arms was unhappy: "Obviously it's my credit."

Duan Kai laughed: "I'll give you some fat tonight!"

Just now Duan Kai, taking advantage of Shopkeeper Jia's inattention, gestured for me, asking me to throw the fat in the face of Shopkeeper Jia, although I didn't quite understand it, but I did it anyway.

Lin Feng's eyes widened: "Just now the prince asked Brother Li to do this?"

Song Bai sighed, touched Lin Feng's head and said, "Do you think your head is made of elm?"

Lin Feng pouted.

Duan Kai sneered and said, "Not to mention anything else, shopkeeper Jia still has something to hide from us. He has an injury on his right arm, and it is definitely related to his Yuhan."

"Why?" Lin Feng asked.

"Just now I asked him if he had done an autopsy. He subconsciously covered his injured right arm with his left palm. It's not a guilty conscience or something."

After finishing speaking, he said to Song Bai: "Go to Bao'an Temple outside the city and ask if he really sent the dagger to be saved."

Song Bai nodded, turned around and ran away without a trace.

The few of us returned to the inn in a carriage, and after a short wait, Song Bai came back and brought us news:

"It is true that the dagger was placed in Bao'an Temple a few days ago. It is said that it cost a lot of money. It is said that the monk who was watching the night was paid off, and the dagger was placed in front of the golden Buddha case in the Daxiong Hall day and night. Dharma baptism. It’s strange to say that those monks took over the haunted dagger, and they were all prepared to be haunted. I didn’t expect it to be haunted once. Now Bao’an Temple is famous, and everyone outside says it’s true. The Buddha appeared and suppressed the evil spirits. In recent days, the money for sesame oil in Bao’an Temple has increased a lot, and the meals of the young monks have improved. They used to be cabbage and tofu, but now they have eaten vegetarian meals several times. By the way, It seems that there is fruit to eat after dinner..."

Tsk tsk, I finally know why Song Bai can become the number one dog in front of Duan Kai. This ability to inquire about news is not something everyone can have.

Duan Kai nodded after hearing this, grabbed my hand and put it in his palm, played with his fingers, and smiled at me:

"Little magic stick, rest early today, and tomorrow we will meet that shopkeeper Jia."
