Chapter 1: The Feast of Return

Next Chapter

During the Guiyuan Festival, the ghost door is wide open, do not travel, and avoid frightening ghosts and gods.

July 15 is the annual Guiyuan Festival of the Celestial Empire, on this day, every house will burn paper money, incense and candles by the river to pay tribute to the deceased relatives.

It is rumored that on the day of the Guiyuan Festival, there will be lonely ghosts and wild ghosts after the end of the day, and if they are met by an unlucky person, that person will be sucked away by the ghost and die unjustly.

Although this is just nonsense, there are still many people who are afraid of this rumor, so those who burn paper money and incense by the river also go home one after another.

There was silence on the streets of Taoyuan Town, and a gust of wind blew, rolling up a piece of money paper on the ground, which fluttered and fell in front of the two men.

One of them, a handsome man of about eighteen or nineteen years old, shrunk his head and rubbed his sleeves with his hands, and he looked at the paper money that had just fallen in front of him, and poked the elbow of the man standing beside him.

"Hey, Li Shenlong, it's weird tonight, let's go back."

The man on the side was about twenty years old, dressed in gray cloth, although he was only wearing thin and coarse clothes, but it was difficult to hide his handsome appearance, this man looked a little ruffian, combined with his upright facial features and wheat-colored skin, he was also a handsome and handsome beautiful man.

Li Shenlong squinted at Su Hang, who was half a head shorter than him, and looked at his head and couldn't wait to shrink into his shoulders.

"Hey! Suzhou and Hangzhou, can you grow your ambition? Can this ghost be poor and terrible? You know, we don't have money to buy rice! If you don't work hard, you and I will have to eat dirt! ”

Li Shenlong didn't want to let go of any opportunity to make money, and his task tonight with Su Hang was to catch the adulterer for the mayor's wife!

It is said that the father of the mayor's wife is the former mayor, so the current mayor Wang Bingquan obeyed his wife in order to please his father-in-law.

It's a pity that a few years ago, since the death of the former mayor, this Wang Bingquan has become more and more presumptuous, not to mention a few concubines, and still has fun in Chunxiang Mansion every day, and does not even return home, so angry that Mrs. Wang jumped straight at home, and in desperation, she asked Li Shenlong and Su Hang to help catch the traitor and tie Wang Bingquan back from Chunxiang Building.

If you want to ask why they are doing this errand, it is because their level of catching rapists is well-known in Taoyuan Town!

Su Hang is right to think about it, what is more terrible than being poor? Although he was afraid of ghosts, for the sake of silver, he still followed Li Shenlong, and the two sneakily came to the outer wall of Chunxiang Building.

Although there is no one on the street, and there is only a sporadic candlelight of incense candles on the side of the road, this Chunxianglou is singing every night as always, and the sound of pleasure and music inside makes people red-faced.

Li Shenlong pointed with his finger, and Su Hang also understood instantly, and the two acted separately, turning over from the south and north walls of Chunxiang Building.

This Li Shenlong and Su Hanglai Chunxianglou have already caught rape for those ladies a few times, so they are quite familiar with the terrain here.

Li Shenlong turned over from the south and landed in the backyard of Chunxiang Building, where a few people came from time to time, and the people who came and went were all cooks in the backyard.

In Taoyuan Town, there are not many people who know Li Shenlong, in order to avoid encountering acquaintances who recognize him, he specially squatted down and wiped a handful of mud on his face.

When Li Shenlong was about to get up to look for Wang Bingquan, he didn't expect that it would take no effort to get it, and the pot-bellied man who was walking from the front yard in front of him was not Wang Bingquan, who was it?

It's just that Wang Bingquan is followed by two people, one is the old bustard Ruyan girl in Chunxiang Building, although it is the old bustard, but this Ruyan girl is only twenty-five years old, her appearance is charming and moving, and there are many dignitaries and nobles who come to admire her, but Ruyan disdains those men.

Look at the man standing between the two of them, tall and straight, imposing, although he is full of silver hair, but the man has a resolute face, he is no more than thirty years old, and the silver hair is even more manly.

Li Shenlong wondered, he had never seen that man before, and at a glance he knew that he was not from this town, Wang Bingquan bowed his head beside that person, which refreshed Li Shenlong's three views.

Wang Bingquan in his memory always bullied others, when the former mayor was alive, he was quite polite to Mrs. Wang, but since the death of the former mayor, even Mrs. Wang can't stop him. However, from this point of view, this Wang Bingquan should really be a person who bullies the weak and fears the strong.

The three of them entered a wing room in the backyard, and after they entered, Li Shenlong went around to the wing room and hid by the window behind him to eavesdrop on the movement in the house.

The silver-haired man flicked his sleeves lightly, sat on the chair, and made him a cup of tea, but he didn't expect that this pretentious and high-minded Ruyan on weekdays actually respected this man so much? This had to make Li Shenlong curious about the identity of the silver-haired man.

The silver-haired man put down the teacup in his hand, and his thin lips opened lightly: "Mayor Wang, can the matter be done?" ”

The man's voice was deep and magnetic, but it also concealed coldness.

Wang Bingquan arched his hand, he didn't even dare to raise his head, and the person in front of him was full of murderous anger, so that he even trembled when he spoke: "Go back...... Cool back adults...... It's all done, you can rest assured, it will be done properly for you. ”

Leng Fengjue raised his eyes to look at Wang Bingquan, his eyes full of disdain.

Ruyan on the side lowered his head sideways and said in Leng Fengjue's ear: "Lord Leng, now the investigation of the Protector Villa is tight, can those things be placed in Wang Bingquan's house?" ”

Leng Feng raised his eyebrows lightly: "Don't worry, it's not in the way." He looked at Wang Bingquan again, the person in front of him shrank his head, and was so frightened by his momentum that he couldn't speak, such a person, if he gave some benefits, he could be included in his command, he couldn't do smart things, and he could barely do chores.

"Mayor Wang, don't come to Chunxiang Mansion these days, take care of those boxes of things at home, don't be discovered by your greedy brother."

As soon as he heard that Leng Feng would let him go, Wang Bingquan was really relieved, and when he was with Leng Feng, there was always an invisible pressure that pressed him out of breath.

"The little one quits." Wang Bingquan strode out of the chamber, as if there was a flood beast chasing him behind him.

Li Shenlong was originally to catch Mrs. Wang, but now that Wang Bingquan is gone, Li Shenlong did not catch up, but was a little curious about the silver-haired man, just as Li Shenlong was going to continue eavesdropping, "meow", a big fat black cat ran over the roof, and Li Shenlong was so frightened that he immediately ran to the small bamboo forest on the side.

"Who?!" The cold wind slammed the table and flew to the door of the wing, but there was no suspicious person outside the door.

Ruyan also followed, looked around, and thought that Fang Cai's movement was just a cat scurrying by.

"Lord Leng, Fang is just a cat, no one else."
