Tianshi picked up a mouth

When approaching the top of the mountain, there was a platform pushed along the mountain wall. There were three halls inside, and the plaque said Guanyin Temple. Inside, a young layman was sweeping the yard when he heard footsteps and looked towards the door.

Zhang Jingcheng stopped when he saw the Guanyin Temple. He remembered that a security guard said that all the locals came to the Guanyin Temple for matching cards. It seems that there are also peach blossom jade tablets of Yin jade here, but they are made of marriage cards.

Zhong Fang walked up a few steps and saw that Zhang Jingcheng didn't follow, but went to find the little layman, so he hurriedly followed.

Now Zhang Jingcheng has been invited in by the little layman, Zhong Fang quickly asked in a low voice 'what's the matter', Zhang Jingcheng said: "Look at what the marriage card looks like here", Zhong Fang immediately understood when he heard him say this Without asking any more questions, the two of them followed the little layman into a side hall next to them.

The little layman stood behind the counter and said, "Here are all marriage cards, which one do you think you want?"

The marriage cards here are much more colorful and textured than the old monk's just now.Not only agate, but also sapphire, crystal and carnelian. Of course, there are also Yang jade peach blossom jade from the old monk and the Yin jade peach blossom jade mentioned by Baoan.

Zhang Jingcheng asked the prices one by one calmly. The price of the Yang jade peach blossom jade was the same as that of the old monk.

Zhang Jingcheng pretended to be hesitant and asked, "Could it be a fake stone if it's so cheap?"

"How is it possible? It must be true. Our stones are exclusively supplied by the manufacturer. It's just the quarry at the foot of the mountain. Did you see that? Our peach blossoms and jade stones are all imported from there, so it's cheaper to be close!" The little layman said confidently.

Zhang Jingcheng and Zhong Fang secretly exchanged glances, and said that those quarry workers could not be so disciplined, and the hard-earned stones were cut open to see that they were Yin jade and then put back?Also smashed?Who would be so stupid, it must be smuggled out and sold for money, but whether this Guanyin Temple is considered an ancient pagoda temple or a separate scenic spot has to be asked clearly.

So Zhang Jingcheng began to talk again, "So it's like this. I didn't see so many pairs of cards when I went to the goods circulation department just now, and the colors don't seem to be as beautiful as yours!"

The little layman smiled and said: "They are the old department, and the purchase channel is fixed. How can we be flexible? Let me tell you, little benefactor, anyone who invites the right cards in Seoul will come to our Guanyin Temple. There are many styles, and there is a lot of room for choice! And if you order more than two sets, we can give you a [-]% discount on the total price."

Zhang Jingcheng said: "Then can I ask for a sign for others?"

Little layman: "Yes, who do you want to help?"

"Help my brother and sister-in-law get a pair of gifts."

The little layman walked around to the other side of the counter, "The gift card is over here, what kind do you want?"

Zhang Jingcheng and Zhong Fang walked up to have a look. There was no gift card of Yinyu Peach Blossom, whether it was intentionally left undisplayed, or it was not there, so they asked: "Is there no gift card with that kind of stone? I think it looks good and is cheap. "

The little layman said: "That stone is not suitable for gift cards, we don't have any."

Zhang Jingcheng was disappointed, and said: "I just think that's good, forget it if you don't have it, I won't buy it." After speaking, he pulled the bell and left.

"Eh? Wait," the little layman chased them out, saw Zhang Jingcheng and the others turned their heads, and hurriedly said, "I know where the brand you want is sold, but why don't you buy a pair from our place first?"

Zhang Jingcheng smiled and asked, "Can you give me a [-]% discount?"

"Fight, you can fight!" The little layman also fought hard to bill.

The Peach Blossom Yin Jade is unlucky, but it is still okay to buy it back and throw it away in the evidence department, so Zhang Jingcheng picked a pair of Peach Blossom Yin Jade marriage cards, and Zhong Fang paid 80 yuan on WeChat.It also earned the little layman's fingerprints for nothing, plus a more direct and useful information.It is estimated that this is the first order made by the little layman since the epidemic. After receiving the payment, he was very enthusiastic to add Zhong Fang and Zhang Jingcheng on WeChat. He also introduced them to Chenjia Village to find Uncle Luo. He said that this person is very good at carving cards. I enthusiastically tweeted Uncle Luo's WeChat.

There must be a commission for introducing customers to others. This is an unwritten rule in various industries, and everyone knows it well.Zhang Jingcheng and the others weren't really looking for the right card, but the little layman didn't know, probably all he was thinking about was his commission.

If you can meet this Uncle Luo, then the purpose of coming to Guta Temple this time will be considered a complete success, so the little layman pushed Uncle Luo’s WeChat to Zhang Jingcheng and added it immediately, and the pass there seems to be very fast. It seems that no verification is required .

The little layman looked at Zhang Jingcheng's cell phone and pointed out: "You told him that it was introduced by Xiaozhu from Guanyin Temple. I just greeted him. You ask him to send you a location. You can go there today."

Zhang Jingcheng did as he was told, and the reply over there was just a matter of positioning.After clicking on the positioning, Chenjia Village is just behind the mountain peak in the quarry, which happened to be on the way to survey the quarry together, so there is no need to detour.

The two left the Guanyin Temple to go to the summit to find Ge Shuyun and Xiao Li, but they had already come down as soon as they left.

Zhang Jingcheng hurriedly gestured to the two men to go on, Zhong Fang turned around and glanced at the little layman who was still standing at the gate of the Guanyin Temple to see them off, thinking that Zhang Jingcheng was on guard against the Master, why is this guy so wicked? much.

After walking down for a while, Zhang Jingcheng and Zhong Fang stopped and waited for them. Zhong Fang couldn't help asking: "Why are you guarding against that layman? Are you still afraid that he will tell you?"

Zhang Jingcheng: "It's always right to be careful before seeing Uncle Luo!"

"Okay, be careful sailing for thousands of years, but I don't think it's necessary," Zhong Fang muttered.

While the two were talking, Xiao Li and Ge Shuyun also came down, and they exchanged information as soon as they met.After Ge Shuyun and the others went up to the top of the mountain, according to his deduction, there should be a formation there, but when they actually went up, apart from a few blue bricks left by some dynasty, there was only a tower base sealed by a glass cover. The pagoda has been eroded badly by the wind, and now only the base stands abruptly on the ground, and the highest point is less than a foot above the ground.

There is a stone tablet next to it, on which the word "Guta" is simply written, and there are only two lines of explanation. It is about 1000 years ago and belongs to the first-class national protected cultural relics, hence the name of Guta Temple.Nothing else.

The magnetic field on the top of the mountain was particularly chaotic, and Ge Shuyun's compass would not work there, and he would not listen to his orders at all.Regarding this point, Ge Shuyun said helplessly: "...I have deduced that I will come to Seoul for almost half my life, and I almost smashed the signboard here."

Everyone laughed, and Zhang Jingcheng said, "Then let's hurry up and find Uncle Luo, he is probably the one who sculpted those peach-blossom-yin-jade cards. I just happened to take the quarry along the way."

……

The quarry in Seoul is not far from the ancient pagoda temple, and it takes nearly half an hour to drive, especially the road near the quarry, which can be called a tire test.There are many flat and round stones on the ground, and the car bumps continuously between the stones when it rolls over it. The road bumps for a short period of time, making several people want to vomit.

After finally getting to the entrance of the quarry, several people got out of the car and retched for a long time while holding on to the door. It looked like a group of drunks who had drunk too much during the day came to make trouble.

Because of this, they almost immediately attracted the attention of the janitor.The aunt immediately picked up the phone and called the quarry office, speaking a local dialect, chattering a lot, probably meaning 'Director, there are some drunk men at the door, I look like they are here to make trouble, Come on, I'm so scared' or something.

Not long after, a few men in work clothes came out of the quarry sideways. Judging by the big and round figure, they probably really rushed to fight.

Seeing those people walking towards the car with fierce faces, Zhang Jingcheng immediately waved at them, meaning don't get me wrong.

The leader of a man glanced at these people, and immediately judged that they were a group of young men with poor military strength. People tend to relax when they have a sense of superiority. The same is true for this man. It is much rarer to ask: "What are you doing?"

Zhang Jingcheng hurriedly said: "Order, order, vomit, goods!"

The expression on the man's face loosened a little, and he asked, "Did you smash it? Have you been drinking?"

Zhang Jingcheng: "No, no! Car sickness! Vomit!"

At this moment, the man finally understood, and he laughed loudly, and the people behind him also laughed, and one of them said: "Hey, it's another group of people who were knocked down by the stone road, haha, I said that the one in front of our door This road should have been cleared up long ago, so who can bear to make trouble like this every time a customer comes here. Let's go, I have to go back to work!"

Those guys went back big and big, and the leader was left. He said, "I am the director here, and my name is Chen Gui. What do you call me?"

"Just call me Xiao Zhang," Zhang Jingcheng said, pointing at Ge Shuyun, "This is our boss, surnamed Ge."

"Oh, Mr. Ge." Director Chen immediately walked around to Ge Shuyun and shook hands with him, "Next time you come to choose another road, isn't there three roads on the navigation? Choose the one that is farther away, that is Newly built. This old road is full of rocks cleared from mining, and it is the most difficult to walk on.”

When Zhang Jingcheng heard the stone, he asked what the two words were. Director Chen patiently explained: "It is too many to be written. This peach blossom jade is usually buried in places with many stones in the Qilian Mountains. We built the quarry. This is the place where the most stones have been inspected, and the stone layer is also the thickest. The amount of buried jade must be astonishing. As expected, this business has been in operation for many years, and it seems that there are endless stones. Hehe!"

Zhang Jingcheng nodded, thinking that he had seen a place full of stones in the Babaohe scenic spot before, and the amount of peach blossom jade buried there must be amazing, but unfortunately it is also in other scenic spots.

As Director Chen spoke, he let several people in, and Ge Shuyun immediately got into the mood and walked in the front, looking like a boss.

Those three young men followed Uncle Ge, and whispered together, Zhang Jingcheng said: "Yesterday when I was chasing Xiaotian in the Babao River Scenic Area, I also went to a place full of rocks. Where it took me the first time, the beast hides behind the mountain."

Xiao Li was surprised and said: "So there may be a huge peach blossom and jade mine hidden in the Babao River scenic spot. The management of the scenic spot is probably crazy."

Zhong Fang said: "I guess the scenic area is not enough for mining, right?"

Zhang Jingcheng looked at the two guys whose focus was obviously off, and shook his head secretly, not wanting to talk nonsense with them.

Director Chen quickly took them to the product showroom, where all the peach blossoms and Yang jades were displayed. After several people looked around, Ge Shuyun asked, "Can we have a look at the Yin jades you mentioned just now?"

Director Chen's expression was a bit unnatural, but he didn't say anything and led them to a warehouse in the back. On the way, he said, "Yin jade is not very good. If you want more, we can sell it to you by the catty."

"Can you still sell it like this? How much is it per catty?" Ge Shuyun asked.

"It's usually 300 a catty, but we have accumulated a lot of goods during the epidemic. Let me give you a half discount. How about 150?" Director Chen said as he opened the door of the warehouse. There are two 4S shop repair workshops in this warehouse So big, it's full of half-cut stones.

"Why are these two kinds of stones so different?"

Director Chen rubbed his hands. He certainly couldn't say that these yin jades were evil, so he made up an excuse and said: "This jade is not transparent, and the things that have been transferred can't be sold at a high price." '

At this moment, Zhang Jingcheng leaned into Ge Shuyun's ear and pretended to tell the truth, and said, "Mr. Ge, I've heard that the local people say that this Yin jade is an evil thing. Let's stop looking at other houses and compare and compare."

He intentionally let Director Chen hear this, and sure enough, Director Chen's expression turned ugly immediately, and he smiled embarrassingly, "That's all superstition, what age is it now, who cares about it?"

Ge Shuyun smiled, and asked Director Chen for a business card, saying that he would go back and think about it again, and would contact him when it was settled.Director Chen sent them out, emphasizing that the price is negotiable all the way.After going out of the gate, he showed them the way, and this time the few people finally avoided the pain of bumps.

Chenjia Village is just behind Panshan Road, and several people on the road are still saying, "Look at this, this quarry is not as formal as the old monk in the temple said, and the peach blossom Yinyu may have been secretly sold out."

"This matter has to be reported to Director Zhao. It is best to get the transaction list over the years to see where these Yin jades have been circulated. I always feel that the deaths of Zhang Xiaoyang's parents and Wang Gang are inseparable from this jade. " Zhang Jingcheng said, and picked up his mobile phone to send a message to Director Zhao.

Xiao Li was holding the jade token that Zhong Fang had bought in his hand at this moment, and when he heard this, he was so frightened that he immediately put the token back to Zhong Fang, making Zhong Fang laugh out loud.

Ge Shuyun also smiled when he saw Xiao Li's reaction in the rearview mirror, and said, "There's no need to be so ignorant, this pair of cards is available in the Evidence Department. If there is a problem, it will show up early, and you have to wait until you get it." ? I think this brand is evil even if it can kill people, and it seems to be able to choose targets. What are you afraid of when the police are upright?"

A few words made Xiao Li very embarrassed, and Xiao Li told him that he wanted to ask for leave to burn incense. This time, several people were amused by him, and even Xiao Li himself was infected by the atmosphere and laughed.

Bypassing this jade mountain, a village appeared in front of you soon.Panshan Road began to go down, and the car drove into the village entrance after a while.At this time, the doors of every household are closed, and they are obviously quarantined at home.Ge Shuyun turned a few corners according to the navigation on Zhang Jingcheng's WeChat and arrived in front of a house.The yard of this family is very large, covering an area of ​​two or three acres by visual inspection. The house is a new type of two-story villa. There are colored steel sheds on both sides of the entire front yard. It seems that it should be a place for jade carving.

Zhang Jingcheng made a voice call on WeChat, and soon a middle-aged man's voice came from the phone, "The password is 123456, please open the door and come in."

The four of them entered the code as they said, and the door popped open by itself. As expected, the colored steel sheds on both sides of the yard were filled with jade carving tools, consoles and a pile of jade stones of various colors.Of course, there are also peach blossom Yin jade, but there is also a talisman array, a compass and three pointers drawn on the wall where the Yin jade is piled up.

Seeing this formation clearly, Zhang Jingcheng suddenly had a bad premonition. He reached out and grabbed Ge Shuyun and Xiao Li almost instinctively, trying to drag them back, but the electronic gate behind him seemed to have eyes. It shut itself with a click.

"Not good." Before Ge Shuyun could finish speaking, a voice appeared in the ears of several people at the same time, and said with a low smile: "Young people are not young, so they can find here, but I'm afraid you have never given them any advice. Have you ever calculated your fate to go back? Hahaha!"

"Xiao Li!" Zhong Fang yelled and rushed towards Xiao Li.

Xiao Li was walking behind the crowd, Zhong Fang yelled, and several people found that Xiao Li was being dragged on the ground by an invisible force. The thing seemed to be wrapped around his neck, and Xiao Li's hands were constantly waving in front of him. Scratching on the neck, the neck has been scratched out several bloodstains! !

Zhong Fang was afraid that it would be too late to throw the Demon Slayer Knife over. The blade was spinning in the air, and the spiritual power attached to the blade brought up a gear-like airflow to instantly repel the invisible force, and Xiao Li was thrown on the ground with a plop. , Zhang Jingcheng hurried over to help him up, while observing his surroundings vigilantly.

The gears of Ge Shuyun's abacus rattled, and the pointer and several small compasses rotated erratically, which seemed to be disturbed by some kind of magnetic field.But after all, Ge Shuyun has practiced magic for many years, and he seemed much calmer in dealing with emergencies. He immediately opened several magic circles around the four of them. After recovering, the small compass turned normally, but Ge Shuyun's brows became more and more tightly wrinkled. After a while, he said: "The man has already run away, and he ran over the wall from behind."

At this time, Xiao Li wiped the blood on his neck, and said fiercely: "Let's chase!!"

Zhang Jingcheng said, "Wait a minute," he took out a qi-sticking talisman and stuck it on Xiao Li's neck, and the qi-sticking talisman immediately changed its color—red and black, red and black, "It's weird! sharp."

"It's daytime now," Zhong Fang said, "Is it really the zombie king?"

Zhang Jingcheng shook his head, and Ge Shuyun said, "It's impossible for the Zombie King to come out in the daytime. There must be some special conditions to help this monster complete this behavior against the laws of nature. What could it be?"

Zhang Jingcheng suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and his eyes swept over the pile of peach blossoms and jade. Everyone followed his gaze and immediately reacted.

Zhong Fang scolded: "It's peach blossom and jade essence. Now the case finally makes sense!!"

Ge Shuyun also said: "If it is the jade of peach blossom and yin jade that becomes essence, it can explain why those who wear these jades are sucked blood and die one after another, and regardless of time, because this Yushi is like the main body of this spirit, he can even shuttle between various pairs of cards at any time, and switch back and forth freely without leaving any traces."

"Yes," Zhang Jingcheng said, "I suspected at the time that the suspect seemed to know everything about us, including the timing he chose to kill Wang Gang, as if he had installed a camera or monitor on the scene. I was observing the scene through the jade, and when my qi-sticking talisman was affixed with a jade card, he ran away ahead of time, so the qi-sticking talisman did not respond to the brand. But just now Xiao Li scratched his neck, and the blood stains locked his body Qi, I tested it out."

"Let's chase him, we must catch him!" Xiao Li was not afraid anymore, got up in a rage and walked outside, but before he took two steps, there was a bang outside, as if it was an explosion .

"Not good," Zhang Jingcheng was the first to react, and rushed to the gate, "That car still has a pair of brands, I bought the pair from the Guanyin Temple!"

Zhong Fang couldn't help cursing in a low voice, the password of the electronic lock of the gate was changed in just a few minutes, and 123456 was entered dozens of times and it was wrong, this must be a good thing done by that monster.

There was no way for the old men to climb up the iron gate and turn out.The explosion just now turned out to be the engine of the car they drove over.There is no need to guess, it must be a good thing that the jade spirit did through the pair of peach blossom and jade signs on the car.

Now, they only had to call Director Zhao and ask someone to come over.Zhang Jingcheng couldn't help but sigh this monster or this Uncle Luo's meticulous layout ability.

When Director Zhao heard that Xiao Li was attacked by the ghost, he was so shocked that he didn't speak for two seconds. Then he heard that the ghost had blown up their camouflage car, so he shook his hand in anger and pressed the hang up button, and hurriedly Give them a call and tell them to wait and send someone to help immediately, no, he took someone to help him himself.

Ge Shuyun was on the go, and Zhang Jingcheng saw that director Zhao was about to hang up again, so he hurriedly said, "Director Zhao, we are in the village of Chen Qun's natal family now, let's go visit Chen Qun's parents first. We have to inform the village committee of Chenjia Village about this matter, our documents are all in the car, and now the car is on fire, we may need you to make a video call with the village committee to verify our identities."

Just as Zhang Jingcheng finished speaking, the village committee cadres who heard the explosion had already arrived.They probably thought that the explosion of the gas pipeline here brought two firefighters with them. When they saw that it was a car that was on fire, the leading village committee cadre was stunned for a while, and asked again to find out what happened. The foreheads of the village cadres have begun to sweat inexplicably.

Just blowing up the car, attacking the police and attempting to kill him, the reputation of the whole Chenjia Village will be ruined.

"Uncle Luo?" The village cadre was puzzled, pointing to the door behind the four of them, and said, "The people living in this house are not named Luo, but most of us are named Chen. This family is the home of Chen Gui, the director of the quarry."

Hey, Director Chen Gui, I just met him just now.The four of them thought at the same time.

"Then how do we get to Chen Qun's house?" Zhang Jingcheng immediately added after speaking, "It's the pregnant woman who had an accident on the way back to her mother's house five years ago. Her husband is Ma Hao."

The village cadres looked at Zhang Jingcheng several times with the eyes of a fool, "Chen Qun is Chen Gui's daughter, are you really the police?"

Finally, it was time to show his strength to prove his identity in the public security system. Zhang Jingcheng did not explain, and directly made a video call to Director Zhao. After the call was connected, he handed it directly to the village cadre and said, "Our director, you can ask him .”

The village cadre answered the phone in a daze, and returned the phone to Zhang Jingcheng 5 minutes later. The smile on his face became more 'real', and his cooperative attitude became more active. He even took the initiative to mention Uncle Luo, "What you just said That Uncle Luo may be the sculptor hired by Brother Gui. Old Chen’s temperament has changed drastically since his daughter and son-in-law passed away. He hasn’t been around the village for four or five years. He is obviously the most diligent one in Zhang Luode."

The village cadre sighed as he said, "Later, he got involved in this jade business somehow, shut himself up at home all day, mixed with that jade carving master, and didn't even take a look at his daughter-in-law when she was hospitalized. , Just throw it in the hospital and hire a nurse."

"Where is his wife hospitalized?" Zhang Jingcheng asked.

"Just the Women's and Children's Hospital. Where do you live all the year round? You said that although this person's hospitalization is not as miserable as being in prison, it's not much better. There is no relative around him. Who knows that the nurse is not dedicated?!"

The village cadre's words must have been heard by the rest of the people. Ge Shuyun was already calling to inform Director Zhao of the situation, who immediately arranged for Zhang Qizheng to take Liu Hong to the Women's and Children's Hospital to visit Chen Gui's wife.Director Zhao also divided his troops into two groups. On the one hand, Xiao Chu drove to pick up Zhang Jingcheng and the others. On the other hand, Director Zhao took a few small policemen directly to the quarry to arrest Chen Gui.
