September is full of flowers

Shen Man sneaked to Tang Jiuyue's side, and said in a low voice, "The cauldron in Zhou Gai's house...why is it exactly the same as the one dug out from the ground?" She frowned, touched her chin and continued, "But it's not exactly the same, The characters on the tripod seem to be different."

Although she is not as photogenic as Tang Jiuyue, her memory is not bad.The shape, size, and degree of deterioration of the giant tripod are almost the same as those dug out of the mud.The land turned out to be Zhou Gai's, and a similar tripod was swaggeringly in his home, which made people more and more suspicious that Zhou Gai was the real culprit in the corpse tripod case.

Xie Fan also said, "It really is exactly the same as the cauldron dug out of the ground! This is not good..."

Tang Jiuyue glanced at the cauldron, "The Zhou family is prominent, do you think it's inappropriate to put this cauldron here?"

After thinking carefully, Shen Man said, "There must be an Onmyoji in the Zhou family, but judging from the layout of the courtyard, this tripod should not be placed here."

"How should it be arranged according to what you see?"

Recalling the books he read in Tianwen Pavilion, Shen Man said, "There is a lot of wood and little gold here, and there is a small lake dug by hand in the back. It is because of the lack of metal products to build the house. It is correct to have a tripod in the courtyard, but there is only one Ding, this will form a situation of lonely gold... If it were me, the tripod would still have to be released, but it would be appropriate to release two pieces, one on the left and one on the right of this road."

"That's right," Tang Jiuyue said with satisfaction as she walked forward with her hands behind her back, "Now your ability to read Feng Shui has improved again. If the fortune in the Zhou Mansion is to improve, it must be as you said. But now there is only one tripod, and the other one should have been buried in the soil."

"So it's really Zhou Gai?"

Mr. Xie almost sat on the ground softly, and the wishes he made on weekdays were never flexible, but at this moment, he was really afraid of something, and he could already think of how he would be in a difficult position among these big men in the future.

Tang Jiuyue stepped up the stairs and entered the lobby.Hearing this, he shook his head, "Although Zhou Gai is arrogant and arrogant, he is not killing innocent people indiscriminately. Let's go and meet Mr. Zhou first, and then make a judgment."

Shen Man smiled and said, "I made the decision."

Xie Fan hurriedly said, "Yes, what Miss Tang said is right, we can discuss it after we meet Master Zhou."

Several people had already entered the lobby while talking, Zhou Gai and Zhou Shangshuling were not in the lobby.A man with the appearance of a servant hunched over his back and said that he would lead them to see Zhou Gai. After inquiring deeply, he found out that Zhou Gai, who was born as a general, was practicing martial arts in the martial arts hall at the moment.

So several people followed the young man to the martial arts hall.

The martial arts hall is surrounded by a lot of weapons, all of which are shining with gold, which shows that they are commonly used on weekdays.There are a few human-shaped targets in the middle, as well as polished and smooth wooden stakes. It can be seen that Master Zhou is in a high position, but he is not tired of practicing martial arts.

The boy said, "My lord should go to take a bath and change clothes now, the three of you just sit down here."

Xie Fan stood up and looked at the layout here, the more he looked at it, the more frightened he was, and he said to the two girls, "You two girls, when you talk to Mr. Zhou later, you must be careful with your words. It is said that this lord can kill you with a single palm." A cow can wring the head of a grown man alive with a slight movement of its fingers, we can't afford to offend it."

Shen Man smiled and said, "If it's as you said, it is really possible that the corpse in this corpse cauldron was caused by his manslaughter. In order to cover people's eyes and ears, they were buried in the field given to the Weather Sect?"

Xie Fan was so nervous that he almost jumped up when he heard Shen Man's words, and hurriedly scolded, "I didn't say that! Please be careful, girl!"

Shen Man just wanted to make fun of him, as a parent and official, he is so timid, he bullies the weak and fears the hard, even if he often bullies the good, if he has the opportunity, he must teach him a lesson.

Shen Man's smile froze on her face before it disappeared, because she felt a sudden gust of cool wind blowing from the back of her head, the wind speed was extremely fast, and it carried a kind of ruthlessness.Shen Man was afraid, but she didn't know martial arts, so she could only stand in a daze at the moment.But I saw another gust of wind blowing up by my ear, a white shadow quickly swept behind me like a thunderbolt, and then several gusts of wind rose, each gust of wind was like a knife that wanted to scratch Shen Man's cheek , but each hit was actually unharmed.

Someone is attacking her, and someone is protecting her.

I don't know who attacked her, but it must be Tang Jiuyue who protected her.

As if a very long time had passed, the movement behind Shen Man stopped inadvertently.She looked back, but saw Tang Jiuyue standing behind her like a tree, with one hand grabbing another person's arm, making a blocking posture.And the other person, dressed in black and robes, with a long crown and tied hair, thick eyebrows and small eyes, dark skin, good looking, and a certain age, about forty or so.

This person is undoubtedly the rumored "black-faced butcher" Zhou Gai.

Zhou Gai's bushy beard twitched, and he smiled fiercely, "Little girl, who are you, you can catch the old man's trick?"

Shen Man wanted to laugh when he heard the words, it was obvious that Tang Jiuyue had completely suppressed him in this posture, yet he wanted to save face and say that Tang Jiuyue could catch his trick?It seems that Zhou Shangshuling still wants to save face!

Tang Jiuyue said lightly, "I'm sorry, I'm really a nobody." She looked relaxed.

Zhou Gai was taken aback for a moment, completely unexpected that the young woman opposite would be so shameless. "What's your name anyway?"

Tang Jiuyue said, "Tang Baiyi." He was still staring at the other person's face as he spoke, and seeing that he was really confused, he couldn't help but smile mischievously, "How about it, you really haven't heard of it, have you?"

There seems to be some pride in the words.

Shen blushed.What is Tang Damenjian so proud of at the moment?Didn't he just want to say that her alias is better than his own, and he just keeps talking nonsense at any time.

Zhou Gai was confused, "Tang Baiyi? What's this name?"

Tang Jiuyue was taken aback, and exerted a little force on her hand, but seeing Zhou Gai suffering from pain, his black face turned purple.A pair of small eyeballs stared at Tang Jiuyue, gritted their teeth and said, "Who is your master?"

It turned out that he still didn't give up, and he still refused to admit that he was defeated by a young and beautiful girl like Tang Jiuyue, and he wanted to use her master's name to find a way to go down.

But Tang Jiuyue said, "I have many masters, but I learned martial arts by myself."

"..." Zhou Gai finally gave up, seeing a man in official robes sitting here, he said, "What are you doing in my house today?"

Xie Fan was scared out of his wits, but at this moment he knew to come to rescue him, he looked at this side and then there, bowed his head and said, "Master Shang Shuling, these two Miss Tang were invited by Supervisor Zou Damen to assist the lower officials in investigating the case. Xie Fan, the next official, is the county magistrate of the capital. Yesterday a corpse tripod was dug out in the field outside the weather gate. According to the supervisor of the Tang gate, this place was given to him by you, Shang Shuling, so I came here to ask. "

After hearing this, Zhou Gai said to Tang Jiuyue, "Since you are from Taige, I won't embarrass you, let go."

Not afraid of his deception, Tang Jiuyue readily let go.Leisurely walked to Shen Man's side, picked up a cup of tea in her hand and drank it by herself.Shen Man stared at her opening her mouth, her thin lips pressed against the edge of the cup, and then took a sip of tea.The hand she raised just now dropped down because the tea was hers.And Tang Jiuyue was drinking tea next to the place where she had just drank.

Zhou Gai flicked his numb wrist and put it behind his back so that no one could see it.He said seriously, "I did give Tang Huiyuan that piece of land, but I don't know about the corpse in the cauldron."

Tang Huiyuan...

Zhou Gai suddenly had a flash of inspiration, staring at Tang Jiuyue and asked, "What is your relationship with Tang Huiyuan? Are you from the Tang Sect in Central Sichuan?"

Tang Jiuyue didn't pause and turned back without raising her head, "I have nothing to do with them."

Shen Man has learned her ability to tell lies with her eyes open, but this is not the point at the moment, so ignore it.

Xie Fan said, "Master Zhou, what is the tripod in the middle of your front yard?"

Zhou Gai thought for a while and said, "Some people say that my house is short of gold, and the emperor just gave me two tripods, and I put them in the front yard to suppress evil spirits."

"Since there are two cauldrons, why is there only one now?"

Zhou Gai explained, "I lost one later, and the old man thought it was an eyesore, so I ordered someone to put it in the middle."

Shen Man was speechless, Zhou Gai claimed to know a little bit of yin and yang, how dare he treat the Feng Shui of his house like this?But looking at him, he was honest, he didn't look like he was lying.

But how could such a big tripod be lost?How did the thief transport the tripod out and bury it in the field?Did anyone die when they were shipped out?Will the dead person be related to Shangshufu?

Shen Man interjected and asked, "Master Zhou, has anyone disappeared from your family in recent years?"

Zhou Gai looked at her and shook his head, "It's normal for a few girls to leave, but no one is missing."

While they were talking, a person rushed in suddenly. This person was a girl about 16 years old with an oval face and curvy bangs on her forehead. She looked very good-looking.

"Little bird, what do you want to tell me? Oh, it's not clean here, even the water is black."

Zhou Gai stood up, with concern in his eyes, "Tinger, what are you doing here?"

Shen Man and Tang Jiuyue looked at each other.

Presumably this girl is Zhou Gai's daughter Zhou Ting, but why does she look a little weird?Could it be a fool?

Zhou Ting has a pair of big eyes, she looked around blinking and blinking, walked up to Shen Man with a smile, stretched out her hand to pinch Shen Man's nose, and said innocently, "Sister, you look so good-looking, the little bird said You don't know, but I think you're cute!"

Shen Man's nose was pinched for no reason, but he was not angry, and replied, "Where is the little bird you mentioned, why didn't I see it?"

Zhou Ting smiled sweetly, and suddenly took out a small bag from her tight hand. This bag was very delicate, and there was indeed a red bird embroidered on it.Zhou Ting put the bag to her ear, listened carefully and said with a smile, "The little bird told me not to approach you, anyone who approaches you will be in bad luck!"

She moved too much, the opening of the small bag came loose, and the contents slipped out and fell to the ground.Shen Man bent down to pick it up, but was suddenly taken aback after looking carefully.

The thing in her palm was a phalanx!

"This..." Shen Man looked up at Zhou Ting, trying to see something from her innocent eyes, "What is this?"

"This is a little bird," Zhou Ting smiled without any scruples, "He is the one who has been talking with me all the time!"
