Chapter 5 Chapter 111 Solving Trivia
"Dad, Dad......" Zhang Chen felt that something seemed wrong with this family and was about to search for the source, but he didn't expect a three-year-old child to appear behind him and cry and shout.
"What's wrong, Xiaodong?" Zhang Chen obtained the information of this little boy from the mouth of the previous concubine, that is, the youngest son of Boss Zhao played by himself.
"Dad, sister, she doesn't play with me these days, she always soaks in the wooden basin all day long. And why doesn't Daddy call me Dongzi instead of Xiaodong?" This little chubby boy, with a small poke of braid on the top of his head, looks like he is crying but not crying, but it is very likable.
"Oh, is there one? How about Dongzi take her father to find her sister, and how about your father let her sister play with Dongzi?"
"Okay, Daddy is the best." The little chubby boy was very happy, ran over and pulled Zhang Chen's fat palm and walked towards the bath room at the back of the first floor. A woman in her forties, dressed plainly, was standing guard at the door of the bathhouse.
"Aunt Mei get out of the way, Daddy said he wanted my sister to play with me. Sister, sister...... "The little chubby boy didn't understand anything, and banged on the closed wooden door of the bathroom with his immature little hands.
"Master, this ......" Aunt Mei was halfway through speaking, and her eyes suddenly became sloppy.
"Tell me the details of the young lady, Aunt May."
"Yes, Mademoiselle, she was young and was taken by the eldest lady to the funeral of her father five days ago. You were also present at the time, who knew that Miss would leave and disappear without everyone inadvertently during the most important burial process."
"At that time, the burial was chosen to be Huiyang Mountain in the east. Although the local villagers have rumored that there are bad things in the mountain, this time, the bachelor of the Hanlin Academy and the leader of the fourth rank from Dujiang City have ancestors who have entered the soil in this mountain, which has brought such good luck to the family."
"Who knows. At the end of the burial, the eldest lady found out about the disappearance of the young lady, and immediately ordered everyone to search for it in Huiyang Mountain, and an hour later found the young lady floating in a small pool of water in the belly of the mountain, which was like a cold pool, and the water temperature was cold and biting. Several subordinates went into the water one after another to salvage, and finally salvaged the young lady. In everyone's opinion, the eldest lady who was still immersed in water did not notice that there was water choking in her lungs, and she was still breathing."
"Hurry up and wait in the city. According to the doctor's diagnosis, the young lady is fine. A few pairs of cold medicine were prescribed, and we bathed the young lady in a bath soaked in medicine according to the doctor's instructions. How do you know that after the young lady's body recovers to normal, she must not leave this bath every day, if she is forced to leave, the young lady's temperament will change greatly, and the young lady will be in addition to the family. No outsiders will see it."
"In desperation, the head of the family, you ordered the little one to wait here every day to avoid any accidents for the young lady, today is the fifth day."
This Aunt Mei's narration sounds extremely weird.
"Okay Aunt May, you stand guard outside the door, and don't let her enter the bathroom no matter how you come here. Fuyuko, shall we go in and play with my sister?"
Aunt Mei nodded slightly, then stood motionless by the door.
"Squeak~~" After the wooden door was pushed open by Zhang Chen with one hand, the room was filled with smoke, emitting from the wooden barrel bath blocked by the screen in front of him.
"Sister, sister. Get out of the barrel." The little chubby boy stumbled behind the screen.
The reason why Zhang Chen put this kid in is because this kid must have been in and out of this bathroom from time to time these days, but he has not been contaminated with the slightest ghost qi on his body, unlike Aunt Mei who is in charge at the door. If it drags on for another day or two, I am afraid that I will die suddenly without realizing it.
"This ghost has the patience to spend so much time so boldly trying to take away the young girl's body. Does an intermediate-level ghost creature even want to regain the fireworks of the world?"
Zhang Chen pretended to be a big man, and walked behind the screen with his hands behind his back and his stomach up. The little chubby boy grabbed the edge of the barrel with both hands, and looked at the fair-skinned girl who was soaked in the barrel with only one head exposed. He looks like he is about 11 years old.
"Pei'er, why don't you play with your brother?"
"Father. Pei'er wants to spend more time in this bath, and she has nothing to do." The tone of an 11-year-old girl's mouth is the same as that of a 30-year-old adult girl.
"Oh......" Zhang Chen covered the little fat boy with a layer of Yuanli film, and a large amount of bloody qi escaped from his body for a while, and even small red blood spots that were visible to the naked eye directly appeared in this small bathroom. When the woman in the bath saw this scene, her face, which was originally godless, instantly reflected a hideous and distorted face.
Zhang Chen quickly pointed into the girl's eyebrows, establishing a connection between his body and the girl's body.
"I'm afraid that after two days, this ghost will be able to completely occupy this body, and the little girl inside is very tenacious, and her soul is still awake." Zhang Chen mobilized the flesh and blood in the girl's body with his blood and qi, and forcibly dragged a white-clothed girl with a miserable white body out of the girl's body.
"Ahh A miserable white face sprang out of Zhao Pei's body, looking at Zhang Chen as if he had seen the end of the world, under the rich blood qi, the ghost body could not be completely condensed normally.
"Anyway, why doesn't this female ghost's hair ornament look like a dress in the late Qing Dynasty? The body has already made contact with the girl's soul, and it's too late to ask, and if you don't destroy this ghost, I'm afraid that the little girl's soul will be permanently traumatized."
"Don't ......" The woman's face under the cloak was full of pleading, and before the words of plea were finished, Zhang Chen's five fingers were pinched, and the female ghost in white turned into stars and disappeared, and at the same time, a trace of blood in the room soaked into her body from the pores of Zhao Pei's skin. Then the blood qi and the Yuan Force film wrapped around the fat boy's body were withdrawn together
[,! ]
Zhao Pei, who was sitting in the wooden barrel, looked dazed, but after Zhang Chen's blood qi regulated his body, he quickly regained his sanity and blood color.
When Zhang Chen, the son and daughter of Boss Zhao, left the bathroom, he didn't expect a beautiful woman who was nearly forty years old to be standing at the wooden door, looking at herself and Zhao Pei beside her with a strange expression, and cried with joy for a while.
"Pei'er is fine, let her go out with Dongzi." Zhang Chen patted the heads of the two children, although there was intrigue between his mother, but the sister and brother got along very well, and the relationship between the sister and brother was simple and strong. My sister took the little fat boy's hand and ran towards the outside of the silk shop.
"But Pei'er, she ......"
"Needless to say, it's not a good thing to have you and Qianxin working hard in this house, sweep the floor over there, come here."
Zhang Chen pointed to the twenty-seven or eighteen-year-old young man who was cleaning the flower platform on the side and said, the man was extremely surprised, he had worked as a laborer in the Zhao family for a year, not to mention that the head of the Zhao family greeted him, and he didn't even take a closer look at the front once.
"What's the name?"
"Small stones."
"The name is good, Shi Zhichang will be my Zhao family's housekeeper in the future, and you will be assigned in terms of personnel management and material distribution, and ask the eldest lady and the second lady more in the silk business, and give you three days to adapt."
"This ...... Okay, I wonder if I can hire a few more people?"
"It's up to you." Zhang Chen's perception of people is very sensitive, this young man has the potential to do great things, and when he is instantly burdened by himself, he can calmly take it and consider it.
"Xiao Miao, at this time I have made up my mind, my family's silk business has been stagnant for a long time, it's time to change it. You and Qianxin should stop and relax, I still have some things to go out, so I won't have lunch at home."
Zhang Chen's tone was extremely sharp, which made the eldest lady on the side stunned, standing in place and looking at the back of her husband, who was originally lazy and didn't think about her family business, and didn't know what to say.
…………
Without restricting the mind control, Zhang Chen is really at home here, and the information he wants can basically be obtained quickly.
First of all, my location is in the eastern center of Dujiang City, and it is still some distance from the Wangren Tower in the city center. In addition, Wangren Tower has been built two years ago, many foreign wealthy businessmen have come to visit, compared with two years ago Dujiang City is more than several times more prosperous.
Zhang Chen ate a meal of delicacies from the mountains and seas in a private room in a restaurant as the boss of Zhao, the food of the Qing Dynasty was no worse than now, and the oil used was made by himself, fresh and delicious.
After being full of wine and food, Zhang Chen paid for the meal and walked in the direction of the city center in a hurry.
"If you arrive here, you will inevitably go to the periphery of the watchtower, although it is said that it is not allowed to know the situation inside the tower before noon, but the people outside the tower and the surrounding area who know about the watchtower or have been to the watchtower have not made relevant restrictions."
"There is no need to hide, there are prescribed restrictions, and most people will swagger in the past, but now they are not afraid of anything, and the most important thing is to confirm the number of people. The most worried is Fangzi her, after all, Master Puhu's heart is needless to say, and Worm Firefly also has the help of Xiao Ni, I believe that there is a way to persist in walking for three days, but Fangzi's heart is difficult to say, after all, he still has a knot in his heart that has not yet been untied."
When Zhang Chen walked slowly on the side of the street with his stomach up, suddenly there was a festive noise of gongs and drums behind him, and a large group of people and horses walked through the road, and four wrestlers in the middle carried a big red sedan chair, and a plain and beautiful woman was looking at the scene outside through the small partition window on the sedan chair.
"Such a huge momentum, I'm afraid I don't know you're one of the players? It shouldn't be Worm Firefly who did this, and it must not be the greedy fat girl among the cultivators, but Fangzi, Gou Xin, and the transgender old man can't be sure."
When Zhang Chen turned his head to look at the small partition window of the sedan chair with his round belly, the beauty sitting inside also set her eyes on Zhang Chen, the two looked at each other, and then pulled their eyes away after a second.
"Interesting." Zhang Chen still maintained a slow pace, and the woman in the sedan chair went to the lookout tower first. (To be continued)
