Chapter 731: No Progress
Jiang Guosheng actually held the boss's questions in his stomach, but Fang Shi didn't speak, and he was embarrassed to ask, so he just talked some gossip and stuffed the questions in his stomach.
After lunch, the village chief and the good people in the village couldn't help but come to the door.
After some greetings, everyone sat on a small stool or sat on a low courtyard wall in Jiang Guosheng's small courtyard, and some people squatted under the eaves, Jiang Xiaoxian stuffed a tea bowl in her hand, and then poured tea one by one with a teapot, Qingyan didn't dare to sit down, so she had to stand honestly behind Fang Shi, and only the village chief, the village party secretary, Mr. Jiang and Fang Shi sat around the small table.
The village chief and the branch secretary exchanged glances with each other, and finally the village chief spoke: "Master Xiaofang, have you also seen and understood the situation in the village?" β
"Well, I probably looked at it, and I basically understood."
"Did Master Xiao Fang find the crux of the problem?"
Fang Shi shook his head: "No." β
"Huh?!"
Fang Shi's simply made the village chief stunned, and then the people around him began to discuss, Qing Yan was also a little stupid, what's going on? Why can't even the ashlar be helpless? If this matter is not good, it will lose the face of Qingcheng Mountain, I knew that this was the case, it was better not to let Fang Shi come over.
Jiang Guosheng was also a little stunned, but he immediately lowered his face and shouted: "Shut up, Fang Shi has only been here for a long time, if this matter is so easy to solve, it would have been solved a long time ago, why wait until today." β
"Cut, this guy is so young, he won't be a liar, don't be deceived."
Then. A very discordant voice came from behind him. Jiang Guosheng raised his eyebrows and was about to scold. Fang Shi raised his hand to stop him, and then under the surprised gaze of the village chief and the branch secretary, Fang Shi said without replying: "The person who spoke came to the front." β
Everyone knows that only fools will come to the front, wouldn't that make Taigong scolded to death, but to everyone's surprise, the guy who was hiding behind the gossip really walked in front of Fang Shi, what is even more strange. The guy who was still weird just now, but now it is quiet and a little scary, and the careful Jiang Xiaoxian also noticed that the guy who usually talks the most strange things in the village has straight eyes, as if he has lost his mind, her heart tightened suddenly, and she looked at Fang Shi in horror, but unfortunately she stood behind Fang Shi and couldn't see Fang Shi's expression.
In fact, several people sitting at the table had already noticed the situation. Jiang Guosheng looked at Fang Shi in shock, he was well-informed. He was born in Qingcheng again, so he naturally knew what the situation was with this guy in front of him, he just couldn't imagine that Fang Shi didn't do anything, that is, he said a word and successfully performed the soul transfer technique, which definitely subverted his understanding of warlocks.
The village chief and branch secretary also looked at Fang Shi in shock: "Master Fang, this, what do you think is going on with him?" Could it be?"
"Don't be afraid, he's just been banned by me."
"Why? I mean that although the mad dog usually likes to say strange things, he should not be malicious, the people in the village are not knowledgeable and ignorant, and they have offended Master Xiao Fang, so please let Master Fang let him go. β
The village chief immediately realized something, and quickly apologized to Fang Shi, and at the same time, his attitude became extremely respectful, Jiang Guosheng suddenly understood Fang Shi's intentions, he snorted coldly and didn't make a sound, and decided to leave the matter completely to Fang Shi to deal with.
Qing Yan also looked at Fang Shi's back thoughtfully, Fang Shi was really bold, if he and his master chose to do the same, would it be easier to solve the matter?
"I didn't mean to embarrass him, but he seemed to want to embarrass me, and he also wanted to block Jiang Lao, Jiang Lao was old, and he ran to Qingcheng Mountain, hundreds of miles away, what did he work hard for? He asked you if you wanted to live a penny? Our Qingcheng Mountain asked you again for the benefit of a penny? β
"This is mainly because the villagers are tossed by this matter, and the people who spent money to invite and the people found by the government have not solved the problem, and even the masters of Qingcheng Mountain were a little excited last time, and it is inevitable that things are not well thought out, and the villagers in the mountains and fields do not know the etiquette, please don't blame Master Fang."
"Humph! I have already said, I don't want to hold you accountable, I came here for the sake of Jiang Lao's face, neither for money nor for fame, what you think actually has nothing to do with me, but I want to ask this villager who questioned me, why are you hostile to me, answer now. β
After Fang Shi finished speaking, he looked at the mad dog who was standing in front of him with dull eyes, and when the mad dog heard this, he immediately replied obediently:
"I took the money from the princess in the town, promised her to help drive away the people who came to do the business, and then gave her the opportunity to introduce the people who did the business to the village."
The mad dog's tone did not fluctuate at all, and his reply like an emotionless machine made the villagers' eyes burn when they heard it, and some people had already scolded in the local dialect.
The village chief raised his hand, but his eyes looked at Fang Shi with great jealousy, if he wanted to say that he had not done something wrong, in fact, who didn't have something disgusting in his heart? Seeing the fate of the mad dog now, in fact, everyone was full of awe of Fang Shi in their hearts, of course, more fear, Fang Shi still has nothing worthy of their respect.
The surrounding voices gradually quieted down, and everyone's eyes looking at Fang Shi changed, and even when Fang Shi's eyes swept over, they would subconsciously avoid it, only Jiang Xiaoxian looked at Fang Shi in surprise.
Fang Shi chuckled: "I see, everyone has selfish intentions, maybe this is one of the reasons why things are difficult to solve, okay, you can wake up." β
Fang Shi's voice fell, and the mad dog's eyes gradually became clear, and he looked at the people in front of him inexplicably, when did these people come to his eyes? No, it was me who came to them, and why did everyone look at them a little wrong?
"Mad dog!"
"Ahh Too, too duke, what, what's the matter? β
"Did you take the benefits of the princess in the town and help her become a broker to earn money from the people in our village!"
"How do you know not! Taigong, who are you listening to nonsense, I call him an immortal. I sue sΓΉ that I am the one who spread rumors. I'm going to tear his mouth! β
"Okay. If you don't go, you're a turtle son! β
"You say, you see if I go or not, my mad dog talks and counts, and spit is a nail!"
"Okay, you are the one who told me these things just now, everyone here heard it, do you still want to deny it?!"
"Me, myself? How could I. I'm not stupid, how can I sue you for all this nonsense? Yes, someone must have framed me, yes, it's you! It's you! β
Mad Dog stretched out his hand and pointed at Fang Shi, Fang Shi looked at Mad Dog with a smile: "If I were you, just shut up and get out, what, are you sure that I framed you?" β
Jiang Guosheng slapped the small table with a slap, and the mad dog shook in fright: "Enough, don't be embarrassed here." I'll settle accounts with you later, and you get out of here now. Immediately! β
Jiang Guosheng didn't count killing when he was young, once the murderous aura in his body broke out, it was not something that a ruffian like a mad dog could withstand, the mad dog was so frightened that he was covered in a cold sweat, his face was pale and his lips trembled, he couldn't say a word, and he walked away in a gray manner under the angry eyes of everyone for a while.
Jiang Guosheng sighed and said, "I'm sorry to make you laugh." β
"Hehe, who doesn't have a bad thing, let's not talk about it, let's talk about the strange things in the village."
"Okay, you say, aren't all here for this?"
Fang Shi glanced at everyone, and saw that everyone was looking at him with awe, and then said with satisfaction: "After my preliminary survey, there is no problem with the feng shui in Bali Village, although the feng shui is not very good, but if you give a rating, it is still barely passing, so this strange thing is not caused by feng shui." β
"Isn't it caused by Feng Shui? Is it really magnetic fields and radiation or something? β
Fang Shi shook his head: "That kind of thing can be measured by an instrument casually, right?" In fact, there are many ways to cause these weird things, such as spells, such as magic weapons, just like what happened just now, if I hide in the shadows and don't come out to explain the cause and effect of things, will you also feel weird? β
"That's right! It makes sense, if someone deliberately makes trouble, isn't it difficult to check! β
"Master Fang is right, I said it a long time ago, someone must be making trouble!"
"You say a hammer! Hindsight! β
Everyone listened to Fang Shi's words and began to talk about it, but the situation was much more relaxed, knowing that it was not a mysterious event beyond common sense, but if someone made trouble, everyone was not so afraid, in fact, what people were most afraid of was the unknown.
The village chief waited for everyone to discuss for a while, and then said loudly: "Quiet, listen to Master Fang." β
Everyone quieted down, their eyes focused on Fang Shi, Fang Shi said with a smile: "This thing should not be done by outsiders, otherwise a stranger will not be able to hide it in the village, but the purpose of this village is really difficult to understand, so I don't think this thing is necessarily man-made." β
"It's not man-made, is it some kind of mountain spirit ghost?"
"No, it won't, there's no such thing."
Fang Shi coughed lightly, quieted everyone down, and said unhurriedly: "I really haven't seen mountain spirits and ghosts or anything, if there is, I will be very happy, don't you think that kind of thing is very rare and existing?" Aren't you curious about them? β
Fang Shi's words made everyone laugh, and the inexplicable fear just now suddenly disappeared cleanly.
Qing Yan looked at Fang Shi's back with admiration, Fang Shi had completely grasped the initiative of the scene at this moment, this is the control of the scene, it is a necessary preparation for the warlock to act, but it seems that neither he nor the master have done a good job in this matter, is he really a monk halfway?
"I'm afraid I can't meet mountain spirits and ghosts, but it's possible that there are magic weapons hidden in the village, or something else, and you may not know about it, so it may be stored under everyone's noses, or it may be hidden somewhere unknown, and in a specific situation, it will affect the people and animals around you. In order to figure out the root cause of the matter, Qingyan and I will carefully count and investigate to see if there is anything in common in these strange incidents that have occurred, and this matter still needs everyone's cooperation, but you can rest assured that the matter will be resolved soon.
