Xiaoqing heard Xiao Laodao say this, no longer angry with the grandfather, walked to the window, and muttered to the window, the grandfather looked at her, but couldn't hear what she was muttering.

After a while, Xiaoqing turned around from the window, her face was not much better, and said to Xiao Laodao: "The female ghost recognizes the beads, as for the negative man......" Xiaoqing looked at my grandfather and said coldly: "The female ghost said...... Maybe it's him, because he's got beads! ”

When the master heard this, the nameless fire suddenly came up again, and just wanted to argue with Xiaoqing, Xiao Laodao hurriedly stopped him, Xiao Laodao asked Xiaoqing, "Maybe it's it?" In other words, female ghosts can't be sure if it's true or not, right? ”

Xiaoqing didn't say anything, Xiao Laodao continued: "According to the female ghost, whoever carries the beads will be happy, right?" ”

Xiaoqing licked her lips, she didn't seem to find the words to refute Xiao Laodao, Xiao Laodao turned his head to look at the grandfather, and asked, "Brother, tell my brother, where were you three years ago?" ”

The grandfather thought about it for a moment and said, "Three years ago...... In the first half of the year, I was chased and killed by the monkey, and later, I took it to Shandong, playing tricks, but I have never been to Qufu, and I eloped with the daughter of the eldest lady, and in the second half of the year, I took the monkey home, and met your master and apprentice on the way, and then what happened later, Brother Xiao, you also know. ”

Xiao Laodao nodded, and said to Xiaoqing: "Xiaoqing girl, you have heard it, I believe what my brother said, I believe in his personality even more, he will not do such a kind of unkind, murderous and oversold thing." ”

Xiaoqing looked at the grandfather and said lightly: "I also believe in my brother's personality, but now that there are human and material evidence, how can he explain it?" ”

"Do I need an explanation?" The grandfather said coldly: "I will admit everything I have done, but what I have not done, if you want me to admit it, don't even think about it!" ”

"What did you just say!" Xiaoqing shouted: "As long as you find physical evidence, you will give the female ghost your life, how can you go back on your word now!" ”

"Don't be forceful!"

Xiao Laodao waved his hand again and again, "Okay, okay, why are you arguing again!" Xiao Laodao picked up the beads from the table and said to Xiaoqing: "You tell the female ghost, don't let her leave yet, I'll go down there and ask the shopkeeper." With that, Xiao Laodao took the beads and left.

At this time, the master was so angry that Xiaoqing's mouth was dry, he sat back on the chair, picked up the teapot on the table, poured himself a glass of water, and poured it down.

After waiting for the time to have a stick of incense, Xiao Laodao came back, and behind Xiao Laodao, he also followed the shopkeeper in the inn, and the shopkeeper looked vigilant, as if there was something in his heart.

After beckoning Xiao Er into the house, Xiao Laodao smiled faintly at the grandfather and Xiaoqing, ignored the grandfather, walked up to Xiaoqing, and muttered in Xiaoqing's ear, the grandfather didn't know what Xiao Laodao was muttering, and soon, Xiaoqing muttered outside the window, and the grandfather couldn't hear what she was muttering.

After a while, Xiaoqing turned around and glanced at the master apologetically, and then, Xiaoqing said to Xiao Laodao: "The female ghost said that the shopkeeper is the negative man!" ”

"What?"

Before the grandfather and Xiao Laodao could react, the shopkeeper heard this, his face changed after a "brush", his face was like ashes, and the shopkeeper looked at Xiao Laodao with trepidation, "Dao Ye, Dao Ye...... Didn't you, you say, 'You want me to come with you to the house to receive the money?' ”

Xiao Laodao suddenly laughed, "In the middle of the night, you haven't thought about it, how can I give you a reward, but I really gave you an object, you can understand it by touching it in the belt yourself." ”

The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly touched his belt, and when he touched the left side of his belt, he was stunned, his hand reached into the belt, and he pulled it out, and suddenly "ah" screamed, the bead was touched out of the belt, and the shopkeeper immediately threw away the bead as if he had been stepped on by someone, and turned around and ran.

The master was already on guard at this time, and before the shopkeeper ran out of the room, he rushed over with an arrow, grabbed the back of his neck, and walked backwards, and the shopkeeper was thrown back into the guest room.

Xiao Laodao turned his head to look at Xiaoqing, and said with a smile: "Xiaoqing girl, this time you understand, whoever carries this bead is a negative man." Xiaoqing suddenly showed a look of shame.

Xiao Laodao said, and said to the shopkeeper on the ground with a smile: "Little Er, don't be in a hurry to leave first, it's not too late to leave after you explain things clearly." ”

Immediately, Xiao Laodao gave the master a look, and the master understood, plugged in the door, leaned his back on the door, and put on a posture of being aggressive and asking the teacher.

Seeing this, the shopkeeper had a ghost in his heart, so he didn't dare to get up from the ground, and kowtowed to Xiao Laodao on the ground, "Dao Ye Kai Grace, Dao Ye Kai Grace, the matter of female ghosts has nothing to do with me, it has nothing to do with me!" ”

"Looks like you know something." Xiao Laodao walked up to the beads, bent down and picked them up from the ground, "Say, did you kill the female ghost when she was alive, are you the negative man?" ”

The shopkeeper's face changed suddenly, "It's not me, it's not me, I didn't kill anyone, I just picked up a bead, look at the Taoist master, look at the Taoist master......"

When the master heard this, he raised his leg and kicked the second shopkeeper's buttocks, but he didn't dare to make any effort, but the second shopkeeper was suddenly kicked to the ground, and his lips hit blood, and the master shouted impatiently: "Don't talk nonsense, what's going on, tell me honestly, otherwise the master will kill your dog now!" ”

The shopkeeper was drunk, "The young master spares his life, the young master spares his life, I said I said ......" Then, the shopkeeper stabilized his mind and stumbled and said:

"Three years ago...... There was a couple of men and women in our inn, the male scholar was dressed as a scholar and a talent, the female was like a flower and jade, and the daughter was dressed up, and she didn't look like a girl from an ordinary family, and the two of them only needed a guest room, I thought they might be a young couple at that time, so I didn't ask much......

"That night, I didn't hear any movement downstairs, but the next morning, I called them downstairs to eat, and shouted at the door of the guest room for a long time, but no one answered me, so I thought that the little couple must be restless and tired at night. When it was time for lunch, I went to call them again, but no one answered, so I told the shopkeeper, who told me to pry the door open and go inside. ”

"When I pried open the door and went in, the two people were gone, and the luggage was gone, I should have run in the middle of the night, and the account had not yet been settled, and I was scolded by the shopkeeper. Later, I went to clean up my room and found this bead on the side of my pillow......"

Speaking of this, the shopkeeper gave Xiao Lao Dao a look, "Master Dao, it's all blame for the little greed for money, no one said anything, put away the beads by himself, and later, when I waited until there was no one, I took out the beads and looked at them, and found that there was blood on them, I felt that something was wrong, but I still didn't dare to make a noise, wiped off the blood on it, and put it away again." ”

"Two days later, the government came, saying that behind our inn, found a female corpse, let us go to recognize, whether it has been in our inn, I went to the back of the inn with the shopkeeper to see, it was the woman who did not settle the bill, has been dead for a long time, only the woman's body, the whereabouts of the man are unknown, later, the woman was done an autopsy, said that she was strangled to death, there were no external injuries on the body, only the little finger had a needle eye on it, like a ...... that was pricked after death"

"Pierced after death?" When the master heard the shopkeeper say this, he frowned slightly.

The shopkeeper hurriedly nodded yes and said, "At that time, I was with the shopkeeper, and I heard it say so with my own ears." ”

The master seemed to think of something at this time, and hurriedly asked the shopkeeper again: "Are you sure that after you get the beads, there is blood on them?" ”

"Sure, it's true, it's not too much blood, I spit and wiped it off." The shopkeeper thought about it again, and then said: "At that time, the official also asked me if I heard any movement at night, I said no, and then asked me if they had left anything in the guest room, I was afraid that the official would suspect me and get me into a lawsuit again, so I didn't dare to say anything about the beads." Speaking of this, the shopkeeper actually asked the master, "Young master, does the blood on the bead have anything to do with the woman's death?" ”

The master replied to him, "You go on! ”

"Hey!" The shopkeeper continued: "Later, I heard from the people in the city that the woman who died was the daughter of a large family in another county, and eloped with a Xiucai in their county and came here. ”

The master looked at the beads in Xiao Laodao's hand and said, "If this matter is really what that Xiucai is called, then he is not an ordinary Xiucai." As he spoke, the master asked the shopkeeper, "Did you often see that dead woman later?" ”

Hearing this, the shopkeeper knelt down and turned to the master, and asked tremblingly, "Young master, how do you know?" ”

The master still didn't answer, "Go on!" ”

The shopkeeper wiped a handful of blood from his lips, and then said: "I don't see it often, just recently, I ...... I often be pressed by the ghost in the middle of the night, after waking up, on, I saw a black shadow walking back and forth in the house, I only knew at the time, this is the inn haunted, I went to the shopkeeper said, I want the shopkeeper to invite a master to come over to exorcise the ghost, the shopkeeper is afraid that the inn haunted things will go out to affect the business, not only did not invite the master, but also told me not to make a noise, because the other rooms are fine, the small house I live in is not clean, a few days ago, I carried the shopkeeper's, changed a house, who knows, changed the house and it was ......"

"Especially two nights ago, the black shadow also talked to me, saying that I should give it back, I was really scared to death by it, so I dared to ask it what it wanted, and it said, a bead, that is its token of love...... I was scared, I didn't know what it was talking about, but the next day, I figured out that it was the woman who died three years ago, and she wanted to ask me for the beads......"

When the shopkeeper said this, the master asked coldly: "Then how did this bead end up in my baggage?" ”

The shopkeeper made his face bitter, and kowtowed to the master again and again, "Young master forgive sins, young master forgive sins, if I say it, you can't beat me again." ”

"Less nonsense, talk fast!" At this time, the master didn't need to say it himself, he basically understood, and he couldn't beat the shopkeeper hard.

The shopkeeper was resigned, and then said: "Later, I took out the beads and put them in the room, who knows, after the female ghost saw the beads, she said that I was a negative man and wanted my life, I ran out of the room in fright, I wanted to wait until dawn, find a place to throw the beads away, who knows, you guys came, I ...... I'll just ......"

"Say!" The master was furious and kicked the shopkeeper on the ass again.

The shopkeeper suddenly howled like a pig: "The young master spares his life, the young master spares his life, it is my little mistake, and the little one will never dare to do it again in the future." ”

The grandfather asked, "You quietly put the beads into my baggage while I was not in the guest room, right?" ”

"Yes, yes, yes......" The shopkeeper didn't dare to look at the master, nodded again and again, and the master was furious, "There are so many people in the inn, why do you want to put me in the baggage!" ”

The shopkeeper took a few breaths, and replied tremblingly: "Because, because I see that the young master has a dignified appearance, and he is also dressed as a scholar, he is a little similar to the show in the past......"
