"Come, Lord Lu, let's have a drink." An old man in black smiled and toasted a middle-aged Confucian scholar.

was toasted by him, and the middle-aged Confucian man's face was flat, and he did not mean to drink.

"I'm going to have to proctor the exam, you, what's the matter, you have to come to me." He looked at the old man in black and said lightly.

Hearing the middle-aged Confucian like this, the old man in black was not embarrassed, put the wine glass aside, and said with a smile: "Isn't this for my sister?" Your sister should know that every fifty years or so. ”

As soon as he heard that it was the other sister's business, the middle-aged Confucian suddenly became serious, and after thinking for a while, he said: "I have heard a little, could it be that it is the day of your sister's catastrophe in the near future?" ”

"Yes, this catastrophe is a candidate for the township exam, and I also ask Brother Lu to make it convenient." The old man in black arched his hand.

Although this calamity is a calamity, it is actually just a process of transformation, which is related to the events of his lifetime, and is not a real calamity, so there is nothing to come out.

Hearing the old man in black like this, the middle-aged Confucian man groaned slightly, and turned his head to look at the old man in black: "Have you reported this matter to the old man Chenghuang?" ”

"Naturally, there is." When the old man in black heard this, he took out a red fold from his sleeve and handed it to the middle-aged Confucian scholar.

Taking the red fold, the middle-aged Confucian opened it and looked at it carefully, then nodded, closed the fold and handed it to the old man in black, and said, "In this case, you will invigilate him from tomorrow, and he will also be handed over to you after the exam." ”

"Then thank you, Lord Lu." The old man in black smiled and took the red fold and put it into his sleeve

At this time, the middle-aged Confucian scholar showed a hesitant look on his face and asked, "I heard that your sister is about to become a ghost?" ”

Hearing the words of the middle-aged Confucian scholar, the old man in black was slightly stunned, and then nodded and said, "Just survive this tribulation." ”

"That's great! Your sister will become a ghost and god, and she will be able to enter the Yin Division, and she will not have to be as mediocre as us ghosts. The middle-aged Confucian man sighed, lifted the jug, poured a glass of wine, and drank it all.

"Lord Lu doesn't have to be like this, aren't you also on an errand in the Yin Division now? Achievements are not to be counted. Hearing the middle-aged Confucian like this, the old man in black immediately complimented.

Hearing him like this, the middle-aged Confucian scholar's face improved a little, and he shook his head and said, "I'm just a Yin priest, where can I compare to your sister." ”

At this point, he paused and said, "Don't worry, this time Lord Chenghuang greets him, and I will definitely take good care of it." ”

With a wave of his hand, he got up and walked away, his body disappearing in the mist of the night.

Seeing him walk away, the old man in black's smile gradually retracted, and his body gradually disappeared, leaving only a table of wine and food here.

On the other side, Li Si and Zhang Yuan also finished eating.

"The two of them are honest and 586 Wen, but our shopkeeper is exempt from them." The second smiled and said to Li Si and the two.

Hearing this, Li Si smiled and said, "Then thank you for the shopkeeper." ”

He also understands the meaning of this shopkeeper, and he wants to make a good relationship.

He didn't have the idea of being polite, otherwise he would embarrass the shopkeeper.

"Then let's go." Zhang Yuan laughed, and was invited by the shopkeeper without spending money, which also made him feel very embarrassed.

Li Si nodded, and prepared to go downstairs.

It's just that at this time, he was slightly stunned and turned his head to look downstairs.

He immediately saw Yan Ling passing by, but Yan Ling's face was a little unsightly at this time.

Then, after a few breaths, Yan Ling disappeared.

"Brother Li, what's wrong?" Zhang Yuan on the side was a little strange, how could he feel that his friend was a little weird today.

"Ah...... Nothing, just meeting an old man. Li Si frowned slightly, he was a little surprised in his heart, why hadn't he seen him for a while, this Brother Yan had grown so much at once, like an iron tower.

"Maybe it's because his martial arts have improved." He thought to himself.

After all, he had already given the dragon scales to Yan Ling before, and he was in the city, so he didn't believe that Yan Ling would encounter any accidents.

"Let's go." Li Si smiled apologetically at Zhang Yuan and walked downstairs.

Seeing him like this, Zhang Yuan didn't want to ask too much, so he also followed Li Si downstairs.

It didn't take long for the two of them to walk out of the restaurant and towards Hu's mansion.

"Brother Zhang, do you know that a Nie family in this Zefu was wiped out a long time ago?" Walking on the road, Li Si suddenly asked Zhang Yuan.

Hearing Li Si ask, Zhang Yuan pondered slightly, shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of it, if there is such a thing, it is estimated that it was a long time ago, and I need to go to the Yamen to check the archives before I go to school."

At this point, he asked with some hesitation: "Brother Li, I don't know what you are asking about this?" ”

"It's nothing, it's just that I heard about a murder case here before, and the one who was destroyed was a family surnamed Nie. I'm more interested in this kind of thing, so I'll ask you. Li Si shook his head and said.

He had some regrets in his heart, but he didn't expect Zhang Yuan to know.

At the same time, he also knew that it was difficult to obtain information about the Nie family, after all, the government was not able to break in.

"I've heard of the destruction of the door, but I don't know if it's Brother Li's Nie family." At this time, Zhang Yuan thought about it for a while, and seemed to think of something, and said.

"Oh? You see. Hearing Zhang Yuan's words, Li Si immediately cheered up.

Seeing that Li Si was so interested, Zhang Yuan said: "Actually, it's not a secret, more than three hundred years ago, when the Twelve Kingdoms were still there, there was a tragic case of extermination at that time, and more than 100 people in that family plus domestic servants were killed, and even the young son was drowned in the pond. ”

"Moreover, the murderers poured fire oil on their homes, and the fire burned for three or three nights before it was extinguished, and some of the people they tied up were also burned alive, and the scene was horrific."

At this point, Zhang Yuan licked his lips, and there was a faint look of excitement in his eyes.

He was extremely curious about this time, so he knew about it and specifically checked it.

Hearing Zhang Yuan's words, Li Si immediately knew that this was the Nie family, and the drowning young child was the water ghost.

Then he held back the joy in his heart and asked, "Then do you know where this old site is?" ”

Zhang Yuan shook his head: "I don't know about this, I experienced the war at that time, and this kind of thing will not be recorded, and now even if I go to the government, I can't find it." ”

When Li Si heard this, he immediately calmed down, it was true, he thought too seriously.

"Forget it, if you don't know, you don't know." He smiled, as if not taking the matter to heart.

Then, the two walked out of No Man's Alley.

Li Si asked Zhang Yuan before, naturally he wouldn't ask in a crowded place, so he specially found a Wurao Alley to ask.

After all, he can't recognize the mid-level ghosts on the street, and only in the no-man's alley can there be a trace of safety
