Chapter 044: Bai Suzhen settled in Qiantang County
"Hahaha......" Li Gongfu came back to his senses, looked up to the sky and laughed, and said proudly, "This is thanks to my family's Chinese ......."
At this time, Xu Xian, who had already taken the carriage to Muyang Academy, couldn't help but sneer.
"Thanks to Gongzi Xu?" Zhong Zhukuai looked puzzled, and secretly thought in disbelief, I only heard that Xu Gongzi was a talented scholar and his poems were famous all over the world, would he still investigate the case?
Li Gongfu replied loudly: "That's right! β
"At first, I didn't believe it, but I didn't expect him to throw three copper plates casually, bow his head and calculate, and tell me that the lost treasury silver is in the Qingbomen Qiu Wang's Mansion."
When the crowd heard this, their eyes widened and they were unbelievable.
After a while, the crowd came back to their senses quickly, and exclaimed with admiration: "Xu Gongzi is really a god!" β
"Hahaha......" Li Gongfu couldn't help laughing, his face flushed.
When the lost treasury silver was found, Yang Zheng, Chen Rui, Xuezheng Lu and the county lieutenant were all alarmed to confirm whether it was treasury silver and the number of counts.
Yang Zheng and others immediately inquired about the process, and Li Gongfu told the truth, which made Yang Zheng and the others stunned for a long time.
"Really?" Yang Zheng and the others asked in disbelief.
Li Gongfu said: "That's it. What does the Chinese say about metaphysics from the Book of Changes, saying that he has read the Book of Changes and can help me ask hexagrams. β
The next moment, he found that Yang Zheng and the others had a suspicious look on their faces, and suddenly reacted, and hurriedly said with a change of color: "My lord, you don't suspect that Hanwen is involved in stealing treasury silver, right?" The great wrong, his whereabouts are very clear, everyone knows, when he lost the treasury silver for the first time, he was taking the county test, how could he be distracted to steal the treasury silver? After that, the treasury silver was stolen again, and he had already prepared for the government exam in Muyang Academy...... Heβhe's motive......"
"Hehe, father-in-law doesn't have to be nervous." Yang Zheng waved his hand, gave Li Gongfu a relieved smile, and said, "We can completely trust Xu Xian's personality and character, and it is impossible for him to participate in the theft of treasury silver." We just think it's a little weird. β
In fact, in addition to the martial arts county lieutenant, Yang Zheng and others were skeptical, and there were more elements of faith.
They are all people who have read the Book of Changes, and even studied it, and they usually have nothing to do with it, but they occasionally follow the Book of Changes for divination as a pastime. For the "Book of Changes" can divinate the good fortune and evil, they subconsciously believe that they just don't study deep enough to find the way, so it doesn't work.
Although Yang Zheng and the others felt a little strange, the news of Xu Xian's divination and detection of the whereabouts of the treasury silver spread throughout the Yamen, and then within three days, the entire Qiantang County knew about it.
In the eyes of ordinary people, there is only admiration and admiration: "Xu Gongzi is worthy of being the reincarnation of Wenqu Xing, not only can he compose poems to alarm Chang'e, but he is also the head of the county high school case, and even the whereabouts of the lost treasury silver can be calculated with three copper plates!" β
β¦β¦
However, it was said that after Xiaoqing and the five ghosts left the Qiu Wang's Mansion, they found a broken temple in the suburbs and hid it temporarily.
Xiaoqing was worried that Bai Suzhen didn't know that they had temporarily evacuated the Qiu Wangfu, so she went to the West Lake to find Bai Suzhen.
When she went to the West Lake to find Bai Suzhen, and saw that Bai Suzhen was still eagerly looking for her benefactor, Xiaoqing couldn't help but persuade: "Sister, are you still looking for a benefactor?" Didn't Guanyin say it? On the day of Qingming on March 3, now that Qingming has passed, the benefactor is definitely not in the West Lake. β
"How could I not know?" Bai Suzhen sighed lightly, frowned slightly, and the faint sorrow between her eyebrows was heart-wrenching and pitying, "But I haven't found a benefactor yet, how should this be?" If I can't find a benefactor to repay my kindness, I can't truly complete my merits and transcend the mortal world as an immortal class. β
Xiaoqing could only sigh, her Taoism was much lower than Bai Suzhen's, and she really couldn't help.
"Xiaoqing, what is the matter with you coming to me?" Bai Suzhen asked.
Xiaoqing said: "Qiu Wangfu was approached by a group of officials......
Before she finished speaking, Bai Suzhen asked a little anxiously, "You didn't hurt anyone, did you?" β
"Don't worry, I keep in mind my sister's teachings and don't hurt people easily, so I left directly with the five ghosts." Xiaoqing smiled admittingly.
Bai Suzhen smiled comfortingly: "That's right." β
"It's just that those officials are entrenched in the Qiu Wang's Mansion and refuse to leave, and we have no place to stay." Xiaoqing said depressedly, "By the way, those officials don't know where to get the news, and they found that the official treasury silver we stole was hidden in the Qiu Wang's Mansion. β
Bai Suzhen thought for a moment and said, "It's not a long-term solution for us to hide in the Qiu Wang's Mansion, so it's better to buy a house to live in." Xiaoqing, what do you think? β
She couldn't find a benefactor, she was unwilling, so she planned to stay for a long time and find it slowly. It's just that she is worried that Xiaoqing is unwilling, after all, demons don't like to live in crowded places.
Unexpectedly, Xiaoqing immediately clapped her hands and shouted in agreement: "Okay, okay, let's go buy a house now, it should be spacious and magnificent!" β
As she spoke, she took Bai Suzhen's jade hand and walked.
"Xiaoqing!" Bai Suzhen grabbed Xiaoqing and criticized, "When will your frizzy personality change?" Is it so easy to buy a house? First of all, we have to find a suitable house that is convenient for us, and then we must have silver taels. β
"The treasury of the government is a big trouble, and we can no longer take money from the government in the future. You have to find a way to earn your own money, and you can use the money you earn to feel at ease. Bai Suzhen said again.
"Huh? And so much trouble?! Xiao Qingtou screamed loudly, she thought that she would find a house that caught her eye and break in directly to drive the people inside, and they could live in it.
Bai Suzhen chuckled and said, "Otherwise, what do you say?" Isn't it a kind of cultivation for us to live in the human world, and to experience and experience ordinary life? β
Xiaoqing was afraid of trouble, and suddenly didn't want to buy a house, but thinking of the elegant and upright figure in her heart, she immediately put down her patience and nodded vigorously: "Okay, let's make money!" β
Next, Xiaoqing accompanied Bai Suzhen to continue looking for a benefactor in the West Lake, and left only when it was dark.
At night, in a ruined temple on the outskirts of the city, Bai Suzhen, Xiaoqing and the five ghosts sat together to discuss how to make money.
The five ghosts scrambled to come up with ideas, saying that since the government treasury silver could not be stolen, they would steal from large households, or open casinos, use mana to make money, and so on.
Xiaoqing thought that the five ghosts were too noisy, and found out that Bai Suzhen didn't like the idea, and knocked the five ghosts out of the broken temple with one palm.
"I was fortunate enough to go to the South China Sea to listen to Guanyin Master open the altar and learn some Qihuang techniques, it is better for us to open a medical hall to help the world, which can not only earn silver taels, but also increase our merits." Bai Suzhen said.
Xiaoqing asked, "Is it fast to open a medical hall?" β
"How can you think of making money by opening a medical center?" Bai Suzhen scolded slightly.
Xiaoqing immediately shook her head, her eyes rolled a few times, and she suddenly clapped her hands and laughed.
"Sister, why don't we go to the deep mountains and old forests to find a few precious medicinal materials such as ginseng, Polygonum multiflorum or Ganoderma lucidum that are one or two hundred years old and sell them in mortal pharmacies? Hundreds of taels and thousands of silver were available at once. β
Bai Suzhen listened, was slightly stunned, and said, "Your idea is good." However, I still want to open a medical hall to help the living, cultivate in the mortal world, and accumulate merit. When Master Guanyin walked and practiced in the world, he helped countless people, cultivated compassion, and accumulated countless merits, so that he is now respected by people and has great magic power. β
"Okay, sister, you open a medical center, and I'll go find precious medicinal materials to sell for money."
After Xiaoqing finished speaking, he flew out of the broken temple, called the five ghosts, and couldn't wait to fly to the deep mountains and old forests.
