Chapter 31: The First Hearing of the City God

The water of the river was very fast, and the wind by the river was naturally very strong, and when Li Si arrived at the river, the wind blew his robe with a loud sound.

After opening the jar, he grabbed a handful of white powder from it, and then slowly opened his fingers in the air, and the powder drifted away in the wind and fell on the river.

The white powder that fell on the river was soon swept down by the waves and disappeared.

The powder was the bones of the critters under his bed, which he had the Guillotine crack with his tongue last night.

After being powdered, there were about 80 catties of bone powder, of which about 40 catties were sprinkled into the manure tank by the roadside. Now only these two jars remain. As for the feathers and furs, he burned them in the stove.

As for why he didn't throw all the bone meal into the manure tank, he was afraid that there would be too much bone meal in the manure tank, and the people who came to collect the night incense would find out and be in trouble.

That's why he took Cao Meng to the river to raise the remaining ashes.

Li Si didn't plan to fall directly into the river, he just wanted to lift it up, mainly because if he poured it out, he might be blown by the wind. And this kind of scattering of ashes will make him feel very comfortable, he just hopes that all the troubles will disappear like this scattered ashes.

"What is this, sir?" Cao Meng was a little curious to open it and touch the other jar, wanting to open it and take a look.

"Cao Meng, do you believe Mr.?" Li Si did not answer Cao Meng's question and continued to sprinkle white powder. While watching the powder float away, he turned back to Cao Meng and asked.

Cao Meng's eyes showed a hint of hesitation, but his expression immediately became firm, and he said seriously: "I naturally believe in Mr. ”

Li Si laughed, and then said lightly: "These powders are ashes. ”

Hearing him say this, Cao Meng's hand suddenly retracted as if it had been bitten by a snake, and he took a few steps back in horror.

Seeing Cao Meng's actions, Li Si showed a prank-prone smile, and laughed: "Don't be afraid, it's just some bone powder like chickens and ducks, not people." ”

Hearing Li Si say this, Cao Meng suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a panic that had not yet dissipated: "How can Mr. have so many chicken and duck bone meals?" ”

"That's a long story, you'll find out later." Li Si sprinkled bone meal quietly, as if he had thought of something again, so he turned his head and asked Cao Meng, "By the way, how long will your father go this time?" ”

Hearing Li Si ask about his father, Cao Meng hesitated a little, and then said: "My father usually returns on the same day of hunting, but occasionally it takes ten days and half a month to return." I think it will take him half a month at most to come back this time. ”

"It's time to trouble Mr. Trouble." Cao Meng had a look of shame on his face.

Li Si shook his head and laughed, and then said with a gentle look on his face: "Actually, it's not much trouble, I feel a lot more comfortable with you, and it's good to have someone to accompany me at home." ”

"It's like this jar, I can't carry it alone." Li Si pointed to the two jars, with a helpless look on his face.

Seeing Li Si answer like this, Cao Meng scratched his head, and a smirk appeared on his face.

After a while, Li Si sprinkled the bone meal here, and then washed the two empty jars in the river and brought them back.

Then the two of them walked to the county seat, and after arriving in Fengmen County, Li Si first went to the ready-to-wear store to order a few clothes, and bought a few short clothes and a few strong clothes.

He doesn't like his long shirt very much, it's not easy to run, how can he have this short clothes and strong clothes. So he's going to buy some stub and strength equipment to use.

While buying clothes, he naturally brought a few pieces to Cao Meng, which made Cao Meng a little flattered and kept saying that he didn't want it. But he couldn't stand it, so Li Si bought it for him.

Cao Meng, who got the clothes, was a little embarrassed, but there was a look of joy in his eyes, and at the same time, there was a look of gratitude in his eyes when he looked at Li Si.

After taking the clothes, Li Si went to the blacksmith shop where the dagger had been ordered before and got the dagger, gave him three taels of silver, and told the blacksmith that the strange knife was gone.

He has a black sword, so naturally he can't look down on other weapons, as for this dagger, there is a reason that has been set before, and it also has the meaning of keeping the dagger close to his body.

Because the black sword is almost a meter long, it is not concealed enough, and this dagger can just make up for this shortcoming, which can play a role in case of emergency.

After getting the dagger, Li Si took Cao Meng home, and at this time, a middle-aged man was already waiting for him at the door of his house.

This man, whom Li Si knew, was Liu Qin, the master of this Fengmen County.

"Lee Sang-ko." When Li Si saw this Liu Qin, Liu Qin also saw him and immediately greeted him with a smile.

"Oh, it's Master Liu, what's wrong with me?" Li Si didn't feel much cold when he saw this Liu Qin coming, although this Liu Qin said that he was a good person, he looked very decent.

But this Liu Qin is not a good person, Li Si's predecessor was cheated by this Liu Qin, and once told his predecessor that he had a lone good book, which was bought from a dealer, and the price was 50 taels.

The predecessor thought that Liu Qin was the master of Fengmen County and would not lie to him, and at the same time read a few pages, and the essentials of the scriptures in it made the original owner feel pleasantly surprised, and felt that it was indeed a good book, so he bought it.

However, after the book was sold, the original owner found that the scriptures in the book were one piece east and one piece west, incomplete, and it did not look like a manuscript at all, but like a draft.

At that time, the original owner went to find this Master Liu theory, but he refused to admit it.

The original owner saw that Master Liu was powerful, so he felt helpless, so he could only consider himself unlucky.

This is also the reason why Li Si doesn't have a lot of interest in Liu Qin, this person's character is problematic.

"Haha, can't I look for you if it's okay?" Liu Qin snorted, but then said with a smile: "But this time there is indeed something to tell Li Xianggong." ”

"It's the county order, if someone asks you about the matter of the Zhang Mansion this time, you will say that there are robbers who broke into the house and killed the Zhang Mansion."

"Don't say it's a ghost." Liu Qin looked left and right, lowered his voice and said.

"yes, I see." Li Si nodded, indicating that he understood, he naturally knew that this kind of thing was best to turn the big into the small, and the small to reduce the nothing.

Otherwise, it will cause panic among the people in the county, and the trouble will be even greater.

"Well, you know the best." Liu Qin grinned, obviously appreciating Li Si's knowledge.

"That's right." Li thought about the matter of the original owner, with a worried look on his face, and said: "Recently, the county town has often been haunted by demons and ghosts, so it is better to let the people be more careful." ”

Hearing Li Si say this, Liu Qin laughed, and then lowered his voice and whispered: "Don't worry about Xianggong Li, Master Chenghuang will be back tonight." ”
