Skilled in managing a house

Zhang Yu couldn't help but frowned when he smelled the smell of talisman ashes and ashes. I came here with Master Lu this time mainly because I wanted to ask about Yuxu Sheng and the tomb in Tangniu Mountain.

For Zhang Yu, the matter of the jade rope was secondary, and the matter of the entrance to the tomb was the main thing. It's good now that something like this happened. Zhou Laodao didn't see anyone dead or alive.

But Zhang Yu didn't say anything. He knew that Zhenren Lu was more anxious than him. Just look at Zhenren Lu's formation. Therefore, Zhang Yu just turned to look at Master Lu.

Master Lu also frowned. It seemed that he smelled the same smell as Zhang Yu.

He carefully examined the room, the bed, the floor, the opened cabinets, and the things that were rummaged through. Zhang Yu also observed carefully and soon discovered that there was a black mark on the ground. Zhenren Lu obviously also noticed it. The two of them squatted down and smelled it.

Gao Laodao on the side said: "The smell here is very strong, with a very obvious smell of talisman ashes and ashes. We suspect that the abbot's nephew may have been poisoned."

Zhang Yu looked at Master Lu, who stood up and said, "Do you have any enemies, fellow Daoist Zhou?"

"I haven't heard of any enemies. We at Lu Zuge have always behaved well, and Senior Nephew Zhou has followed the rules. How can we make enemies with others? Even if we have some trouble with someone, we probably won't be so vicious." It was Di who spoke this time. Sophisticated.

"Zhang Daoyou, what do you think?" Lu Zhenren looked at Zhang Yu.

Zhang Yu didn't see any clue, but thought it was too coincidental. He said directly: "I can't tell clearly, but looking at the scene, the other party's goal seems to be to find something. I don't know, something was also thrown into Daoyou Zhou's room."

This sentence reminded Lu Zhenren at once, and Lu Zhenren immediately followed up and said: "Last time I borrowed the Yuxu rope from Taoist Zhou to have a look, and he told me that the Yuxu rope was lost, so I thought it was a coincidence. Could it be This jade Xu rope is in Zhou Daoyou’s room.”

Gao Laodao, Di Laodao, and Hai Laodao immediately looked at each other and said nothing for a long time.

Master Lu followed and said, "What's going on with you three? Could it be that this is true?"

His tone seemed polite, but it was actually questioning. Look at what that means. He doesn't take Lu Zuge seriously at all, it's no different than in his own back garden.

This is a manifestation of strength. Naturally, Gao Laodao and the others dare not offend him. Gao Laodao hurriedly said: "Zhenren Lu, to be honest, after discussion that day, we decided to lend the Yuxu Rope to Zhenren Lu for a look. The Yuxu Rope is on the beam of the main hall, and there is a mechanism, but When I went up to get it, I found that the rope was gone. I think the abbot's nephew must have explained this to Zhenren Lu. Also, didn't someone from Yangchun Temple come to see it at that time..."

"That's true...but..." Lu Zhenren paused and then said: "I'm very curious now, who knows the mechanism on the beam, and who knows the spell to activate the Yuxu rope? "

"This...it seems that the only one left is the abbot's nephew..." Gao Laodao said.

"I have no other intention of coming here today. The reason is that my uncle was killed last night. He was tied up with a rope and given poison. There is no rope in the world that can bind my uncle without making a sound. , Pindao really can’t think of it... It seems that there is nothing else except the rumored Yuxu Rope of Lu Zuge... Pindao originally wanted to confront fellow Taoist Zhou, but unexpectedly he disappeared. Isn’t this a coincidence? ..." Master Lu said in a deep voice.

"There are, there are such things..." Gao Laodao was shocked.

Di Laodao and Haidao were also startled. The three of them looked at each other. After a while, Haidao said: "Master Lu... It can't be said that being tied up with a rope is related to the Yuxu rope in our Lu Zuge... …Furthermore…we have never seen how powerful this Yuxu Rope is…and now…it’s lost…”

"Don't be so nervous..." Master Lu said in a deep voice: "I don't think this matter has anything to do with you, but the important thing is... the Yuxu rope is gone, and fellow Daoist Zhou is also missing. What is the mystery in this... …”

"Yes, that's right..." Di Laodao said quickly: "We, Lu Zuge and Yangchun Guan, have always been on the same page, and there is no dispute between us at all. We all met Lu Zhenren's senior uncles back then, and we have good friendships. Very good. Over the years, I have been retired and rarely moved around... It is said that our Lu Zuge has harmed fellow Taoists in Yangchunguan... This is simply impossible..."

"That's right."

"That's right, it's simply impossible..."

Both Gao Laodao and Haidaoren nodded one after another.

Zhenren Lu said calmly: "I also believe what you said, but my uncle left without any reason, so I have to explain it to the door."

"This..." Gao Laodao hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Zhenren Lu, this is my analysis... It may be that someone stole the Yuxu rope, but didn't know how to use it... He sneaked into Master Zhou last night bedroom, asking him for a spell, the result...will it be like this..."

After hearing this, Lu Zhenren's heart moved and he immediately asked: "When did Fellow Daoist Zhou return to his room yesterday?"

"We have already asked his disciples about this. Senior Nephew Zhou did not attend evening classes last night and went back to his room at six o'clock."

"He went back to his room at six o'clock. Has no one been to his room during this time?" Lu Zhenren asked.

"No one, he said at that time, if there is nothing important at night, don't disturb him..." Gao Laodao said.

"I don't even have evening classes. Isn't there a reason?" Lu Zhenren asked.

"Even if it means something, if he doesn't tell me, his disciples won't dare to ask him..." Haidaoren said.

"That's true." Lu Zhenren nodded.

"Senior brother..." Lu Daoren said suddenly.

"What did you find?" Lu Zhenren looked over.

"Although it is impossible to determine the time when Uncle Master was killed, it is estimated that it was probably around ten o'clock in the evening. Fellow Daoist Zhou returned to his room at six o'clock in the evening. It is not very far from Hua's house. The fastest, only two people can come. An hour's drive..." Lu Daoren said.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, what do you mean by this? You don't think that... my senior brother will harm Uncle Ling..." Haidaoren said in a hurry.

If it is confirmed that it was Zhou Laodao who killed Lu Zhenren's uncle, then the discord between the two families will be great, and this matter will never be let go. Therefore, Haidao people are very anxious and must not let Lu Zuge be charged with such a crime for no reason.

"Fellow Daoist Hai, you misunderstood. I'm not saying that it must be senior brother Ling who harmed my uncle. Firstly, there is no reason. Secondly, just relying on the jade virtual rope may not make it silent." Lu Daoren said.

"What do you mean, fellow Daoist Lu?" Daoist Haida asked doubtfully.

Zhang Yu on the side couldn't help but his eyes lit up after listening to Lu Daoren's words, and he instantly realized what the problem was. It seemed that Mr. Lu was observing carefully, and it was absolutely true. Even if Zhou Laodao had the Yuxu rope, it would be in vain. If he wanted to enter and exit the dead old Tao's room silently, it would be in vain for a normal person. If anyone can do it, I'm afraid it's just that one person.
