In one of the rooms of the inn, as soon as I entered the door during the day and at night, I saw the female ghost in red squatting on the ground in front of the window, burying her head and long hair hanging down, and exuding a low and cold aura from her body.

"What's wrong with you?" Daytime walked up and asked softly.

The female ghost in red slowly raised her head, her dark eyes were empty and blank, "I don't know, in this place, I suddenly feel so uncomfortable in my heart." Pain, sadness, despair......"

Seeing blood and tears flowing from the eyes of the female ghost in red, she was a little panicked during the day, "Ling Ye, what is her situation?" ”

"It could be a touch of the scene." Ling Ye said, and with a wave of his hand, he sealed the spirit of the female ghost in red in his body.

The female ghost in red disappeared in an instant, leaving only a cold and mournful aura that gradually dissipated in the room.

The next morning, during the day and night, he got up very early, cleaned up and went out.

Yaogu Town is quite big, day and night yesterday I have inquired with the owner of the inn, and learned that there is a street in the west of Yaogu Town that sells silver products.

The silverware in each shop on that street is handmade, and there is a lot of silverware there, and the workmanship is so fine and exquisite that many people who come here for sightseeing will go there to pick up some of their favorite ones and buy them.

I walked along the street during the day and at night, and after half an hour, I came to this * silverware street, and sure enough, this street was very lively with people.

According to the innkeeper, one of the most famous shops on this street is called "Ho Kee Silverware Workshop", which has the longest history and first-class craftsmanship, and their business and reputation are the best in the past hundred years.

All the shops on this street are antique kind of buildings, which look antique and very meaningful, and I didn't waste time in other stores during the day and night, and I directly found this "He Ji Silverware Workshop" and walked in.

The lobby of the silversmith shop is two interconnected rooms, which look quite large, and on the right side of the lobby there is a reddish-brown wooden staircase leading to the second floor.

There were a lot of customers looking at the counters on both sides of the store, and when they saw the day and midnight walking in, a young girl hurriedly came over to entertain them, "What do the two gentlemen want to see?" ”

"We want a special piece of silverware, can you show us your boss?" Asked with a smile during the day.

"Just ask our craftsman to customize the silverware, and I'll take you there." The little girl smiled enthusiastically and said politely.

"No, no......" waved his hand during the day, "Actually, we have something to ask your boss about, and we ......"

I was a little anxious during the day, for fear that the girl would not agree, but I didn't expect that suddenly a strong male voice came from upstairs, "Let them come up!" ”

A flash of surprise flashed in the little girl's eyes, and then she smiled and said, "Our boss asked you to go up, please!"

"Thank you!" I thanked the girl during the day, but I was a little worried in my heart, I didn't expect to be able to meet the boss so easily.

Stepping on the thick wooden staircase, I walked up to the second floor during the day and at night.

The second floor is also a very spacious area, and the layout inside is very elegant, which looks more ancient and elegant.

I thought that there was only one boss on the second floor, but I didn't expect that the second floor was like a silver-making studio, and there were several masters working on it.

I couldn't figure out which boss was during the day, so I had to ask, "May I ask who is the boss who just let us up?" ”

"Inside." None of the masters raised their heads, just focused on polishing the silverware in their hands.

Looking around during the day and at night, I saw that there was also a carved wooden arch leading to another place in this huge space.

Walking into the archway during the day and night, he found a hallway, and in front of the hallway was a staircase leading to the upper level.

Walking up the stairs to the day and night, there is a large room, the decoration of the room is all in the simple Chinese style, and there are many green plants in it, and the whole look is very poetic.

"It's really a winding path leading to a secluded place!" I couldn't help but sigh during the day.

"Haha, the young man is quite discerning." A hearty laugh came from behind a tall shelf, and the next moment a white-bearded old man who was old but full of energy walked out of it.

"Come, sit down!" The old man beckoned the two of them to sit down in front of a pineapple tea table.

"Tell me, what are you looking for me to do?" The old man asked casually, fiddling with a chessboard on the tea table.

"I want you to take a look at something, can you tell if this silver lock is made by your family?" During the day, he took out a box from his backpack and opened it to present the silver lock inside to the old man.

Seeing that the style of the silver lock in the box was very special, it looked like the style of many years ago, and the old man took out the silver lock with some curiosity and looked at it carefully.

From front to back, the old man looked carefully, and from time to time he reached out to stroke his beard, and after a while, he looked a little excited: "This is a very old thing." That's right, this is something from our He family, look at this craft like my grandfather made, you see the lotus carving on the lock, fine and smart, this is my grandfather's mastery. ”

"That's great." During the day, he happily glanced at Ling Ye, looked at the old man and asked, "Do you have any records of the things produced in our store?" Can you help me find out who made this silver lock? ”

"Naturally, there are records, but the specific age of this silver lock is not clear, and I am afraid it is not easy to check." The old man pinched his beard and sighed a little.

"It's definitely from before 1944 anyway." This is the only thing that is certain during the day.

"Can you tell me why you're looking this up?" The old man asked.

"This ......" hesitated during the day, not knowing how to answer.

"Entrusted by a female ghost to help her fulfill her wish." The question of not knowing how to answer during the day was solved by Ling Ye in such a simple and unbelievable sounding word.

I thought that the old man would treat them as neurotics, but after the old man was stunned for a while, he shook his head with some sighs, and said, "Okay, I will definitely help you with this sentence."

With that, the old man led them to the back of the shelf.

Behind the shelves was a separate space enclosed by several shelves, which were full of books, and the old man walked to the top of the innermost shelf, and tiptoed down a thick stack of books.

"These are the accounts before the founding of the People's Republic of China, although the scope is a little wider, but there are words engraved on your silver lock, and these requirements of the general master will also be recorded in the book, and it can be regarded as a goal to find." As he spoke, the old man pulled up a chair and sat down, took out one of the ledgers and began to look through it.

During the day, he also followed the old man's example, sat in front of a chair and turned a page, pointing to the words on it line by line.

Ling Ye, on the other hand, stood still, his eyelids drooping as if he was thinking about something. During the day, he noticed Ling Ye's abnormality and hurriedly asked, "Ling Ye, what's wrong with you?" ”

Ling Ye's words were condensed: "It's too slow to look at each line like this, we have to change the method." ”

"What's the other way?" Curious during the day, the old man on the side heard Ling Ye say this, and directly closed the account book in his hand, looking at Ling Ye with a serious and expectant expression.

Ling Ye thought for a while, looked at the old man and said, "Are you sure that all the account books before the founding of the People's Republic of China are here?" ”

"That's right!" The old man nodded and looked at Ling Ye with interest.

"Okay, I got it!" As he spoke, Ling Ye turned his head to look at the day, "Daytime, give me a piece of your rune paper." ”

"Oh, good." During the day, he hurriedly got up, took the backpack he had put aside, took out a clean piece of yellow paper and handed it to Ling Ye.

Ling Ye saw the brush on the old man's table, dipped it in ink, and wrote the words "Girl: Xiujuan" on the rune paper.

Then Ling Ye put the rune paper in his hand, closed his eyes and silently recited the mantra, and the rune paper on his fingertips instantly burned.

Midnight lifted the rune paper in the air, and when the rune paper burned out, there seemed to be something left in the air during the day.

Staring wide-eyed and looking closely, during the day, he found that the remnants of the air had gathered together to form four handwriting words shining with golden starlight, "Girl: Xiujuan".

"Go!" Ling Ye stretched out his hand, and the four golden handwritings flew towards the tall stack of account books, hovering over them.

Soon, the tall stack of account books began to shake slightly, and the next moment one of the account books suddenly pulled out and flew out, slowly landing on the table next to it.

The same step continued for a long time, and finally after several books were withdrawn, the slightly shaky stack of books began to calm down, and then four glowing golden handwritings dissipated into the air.

"These books all contain those four words, and I'm not sure which one they are, but at least they can be faster." Ling Ye explained lightly.

The old man looked surprised, and sighed in shock: "I have lived for so long, and today I finally opened my eyes, I didn't expect that there really is a master like you in this world." ”

For the old man's admiration and compliment, Ling Ye just glanced at him lightly, and then said, "Let's start now, I'm sorry for you!" ”

"No trouble, no trouble!" The old man waved his hand, and his attitude towards day and night was much more cordial and respectful than before.

There were six account books that had been extracted from the table, and each of the three of them began to open them, and on the way to look through them, Bai Tian and the old man found that there were indeed many places in these account books that contained those four words, but none of them were what they were looking for.

Ling Ye was the first to finish reading one, and then started the second one, and then the old man also finished checking one and started the next one.

I was secretly anxious when I read it during the day, and I sped up my speed even more, and finally finished the book in my hand during the day, and I didn't gain anything.

Then, after picking up the last book and carefully examining a few pages, Daytime suddenly exclaimed in surprise: "There it is, it's this!" ”
