After solving Xiao Jiuhe, a big stone in my heart finally landed.

Last night's action can be said to be thrilling, which really confirmed Granny Qin's previous prophecy of "surviving in danger". Her hunch has always been accurate, and although she can't predict it accurately, the general situation will always be wrong.

But hey, hey! In addition to solving a ** annoyance, I also gained a lot from this adventure!

All of Xiao Jiuhe's "ill-gotten gains" were looted away by me, and more than 1,000 Yin Yuan was equivalent to my salary in the Longevity Hotel for a year. What's more, I also brought back two snuff bottles and a small vase, which I can ask the mustache to help me when I return to the sun next time I go on vacation, which is a lot of income.

That bottle of ghost exorcism incense can definitely be called a "windfall". Practice has proved that this thing is still quite effective, at least for ghosts below the level has a strong "nausea effect", next time if you need to go out in the middle of the night, you can take it out and use it again. There is also a bottle of anti-autopsy potion, although it has not been tested yet, but since Xiao Jiuhe often takes it for himself, it must not be fake!

As for the loss, in addition to the round shield, it is Tian Laolu's cloak. The situation was so critical when the black boss stormed the ghost refining shop that I didn't even bother to take the cloak and hurriedly fled through the back door.

My old roommate found his cloak missing the next day, and searched everywhere to no avail. I couldn't bear to see him worried, so I told him that I had accidentally soiled the cloak and lost it, and promised to buy him a new one. But Tian Laolu still nagged me for a long time because of this. Alas, the old man is nostalgic!

For this reason, I had to buy him three more luminous fish as compensation.

After that, the days went relatively smoothly. I worked at the Changshou Hotel for another three months, and every day I either tossed all kinds of strange ingredients in the kitchen, or followed Wei Dahu to practice long and short stick techniques and sword and shield techniques, and practiced Yin Gong in my spare time.

My Yin Gong cultivation is now on the verge of breaking through to the third upper level. Speaking of which, in the Longevity Hotel, except for Wei Dahu, my Yin Gong cultivation is actually the highest. The others, including several nurses, were mostly at the third level of the first and middle levels. Even an older guy like Tian Laolu has been stagnant at the second level, and he has never been able to break through to a higher level.

Wei Dahu said that the cultivation of Yin Gong to the third level is a watershed. The first and second layers are only the stage of laying the foundation and getting started, and from the third stage, it is particularly dependent on the innate physical talent and the acquired external force supplement.

Master said that I belong to the Yin body, and I am a good material for cultivating Yin Gong by nature. As for the acquired supplement, it is to rely on various medicines and cultivation exercises to speed up the progress of cultivation. To put it bluntly, it is to forcibly elevate and cultivate with foreign objects piled up by Yin Yuan.

There are many shops in Yin City that sell auxiliary drugs for growth and cultivation, and the prices are very expensive. I don't lack Yin Yuan at the moment, but Master is not around, I don't dare to eat any elixir or golden pill, if I take the wrong medicine, I will be in trouble!

I didn't have much to do at the Longevity Hotel, but Cao Zhe wasn't very lucky. He was finally transferred to a convoy to carry out an expatriate mission, saying that he was going to another small Yin City called "Ghost Farm" to transport a batch of military supplies back, and the rest could not be revealed.

I asked him how long it would take to return, and he said it would take about two months. However, when he left, he seemed very relaxed, and advised me not to worry too much, not to make it seem like life and death, but only that I promised to come back and invite him to the Lotus Bar for a drink.

Because Cao Zhe is not in the Yin City, I have been more cautious not to go out alone recently. Ghost knows...... No, God knows if the Yin Division will launch an investigation into his death, or if Xiao Jiuhe is still in the same party or the same door in the Yin City. Anyway, I'd better stay out of the limelight for the time being, and it's always good to be careful.

I just solved my own troubles, but the longevity hotel has recently been approached by someone, causing a big trouble.

At noon that day, it was the peak season for dining, and the business in the restaurant was quite lively, and Yu Lazi and I and several other chefs were busy in the kitchen. Suddenly, we heard someone making noise outside, so we all stretched out our ears to listen, but it was so noisy outside that no one could hear why.

At this time, Xiao Jian ran into the kitchen in a panic, his little face turned pale, and shouted at us: "There are people from the ghost department outside who have come to check the store, and they are all fierce!" ”

Yu Lazi frowned and said suspiciously: "What right do the people from the Ghost Affairs Division have to check the restaurant?" Our accounts and taxes are under the control of the Yin Division. I'll go out and take a look, don't all of you stand in a daze, this has nothing to do with you, keep working! ”

He said a few words and went to the lobby. When the rest of the people heard him say this, they also thought it should not be a big deal, so they continued to be busy stir-frying.

I'm busy picking up a mireur. This thing used to make me embarrassed, and although I'm now proficient after a few more times, it really doesn't smell good. I had to take a clip to get my nose in and then go and flip over its large intestine.

Xiao Ji didn't avoid the stench, ran over next to me, and secretly said to me: "Brother Xiaosheng, help me!" ”

"What can I do for you?" I asked casually.

"Hide me!"

I looked back at it in amazement: "Why?" ”

But the little illness began to hesitate, so he begged me vigorously.

I asked it again, "What are you afraid of?" Are you afraid that someone from the Ghost Division will come to you? ”

When I heard this, I was even more afraid. It grabbed my clothes at once and begged, "Brother Xiaosheng, don't hand me over to them, I'll be gone!" ”

I looked at it with some surprise. Xiao Ji usually follows Wei Dahu the most, and he is one of his little followers. But Xiaoxiao is still close to me, because when I see it, I always think of it.

Seeing that it was really frightened, and I refused to say the specific reason, I sighed, took out the small porcelain vase that Master had given me from my bosom, and put it in the vase for the time being. Then I thought about it, and stuffed the porcelain bottle into one of the miremon's large intestines.

As soon as the minor illness was hidden, the noise outside became even worse. I also vaguely heard Wei Dahu scolding loudly with someone, and provoking each other, as if he was about to start his hands every minute. I wasn't stir-frying in my hands, so I left the mire behind, washed my hands and ran out to see what was going on.

Sure enough, Wei Dahu was fighting with another big guy. Both of them are tiger-backed figures, and their chests are high together, looking at each other angrily, and they are still bickering.

There were a few strangers standing next to him, but one of them I had seen: the shopkeeper of Fugui Building, Qiu Fugui!

Qiu Fuguipi didn't smile, beckoned to the big guy, and said, "Leizi, don't be in a hurry to quarrel with them first, just let Fu Cao of the Ghost Affairs Division come forward to deal with it!" ”

The Fu Catcher Cao that Qiu Fugui was talking about should be the short guy standing beside him.

Cao Hunting is an official position in the Yin City, which is responsible for catching evil ghosts that hurt people and ghost slaves who escaped. He was wearing the official uniform of the ghost secretary and was holding a dog in his hand. The dog had a longer nose and slender limbs, like a toy dog pinched out of a balloon.

Fu Zhucao coughed twice with some seriousness, and said, "You two stop first, listen to me!" The Qiu family came to report a few months ago that a ghost slave stole the master's key without permission, opened the collar and ran out. As for this, our Ghost Affairs Division has been investigating, but we don't have a clue. ”

"Until yesterday, someone from the Qiu family saw the ghost slave who escaped on the seventh street of Zuoshi appear, so he came to report it again. As for me, I brought this proboscis dog, sniffed the collar left by the ghost slave at that time, and led a team to Seventh Street to find it. The proboscis dog's nose is sensitive to the peculiar smell of each ghost, and it tracked it all the way to your longevity hotel, making sure that the ghost slave had just been in your hotel. ”

"So, hehe, where I accuse, I have to come in and search. I also hope for the cooperation of the shopkeeper! After Fu Zhucao finished his last sentence, he clenched his fists and looked at Teng Shuli.

Teng Shuli's expression looked helpless. It's the meal, the peak of business, and if they are allowed to search the store like this, it will definitely have a big impact on business. But I don't agree, the people in the ghost department have said so conclusively that they want to come to the office, and the longevity hotel doesn't dare not cooperate. Otherwise, a big hat will be buttoned up, and even the Teng family will be implicated.

"Our longevity hotel has never raised ghost slaves, so how can your ghost slaves come here?" Uncle Teng stretched out his hands and tried to explain again.

"Shopkeeper Teng, I don't know if you raise ghost slaves. However, my proboscis dog did smell the ghost slave in the shop. You can't go wrong! The Fu Catcher Cao insisted again.

"Do you have to search it?"

"Must be searched!"

"Can you search later? You see I have so many guests here now......"

"No, I can't wait!"

Teng Shuli had no choice but to wave his hand at Wei Dahu and said, "Dahu, get out of the way and search for them!" ”

Wei Dahu glared at the other party's big man fiercely again, and then reluctantly took a step back and let go of the door.

"Let's go, go in and search!" The big guy named Lei Zi waved his hand, and several big men behind him followed him into the store.

Fu Zhucao also led the proboscis dog into the lobby, and the long-nosed dog still sniffed around, barking twice from time to time, excited, and seemed to really smell the smell of the escaped ghost slave.

Qiu Fugui didn't come in, just stood outside the door and kept touching his mustache, quite gloating.
