Later, I learned that this old man in a tunic was the master of the Zhang family, and he took care of the affairs of the Zhang family.

But now that he says that he can't help us, doesn't that mean that Jiang Li has been closed this time.

Jiang Li stepped forward and said to the master of the Zhang family, "It's not that you haven't dealt with this kind of lesion, this kind of technique is done by the Miao people at first glance, and of course only your Zhang family can solve it." ”

Master Zhang's face changed greatly, "Which one said it!" The disease on this female doll is not what our Zhang family is capable of, when the ancestors were the door to drive away the corpse, and the ancestors were trained to do it, and they were not allowed to touch things related to black witchcraft, although we were doing the corpse, but some things were clearly distinguished. ”

Jiang Li looked at Master Zhang and didn't mean to help. In desperation, he continued to ask him, "Okay, we won't be difficult." ”

We were about to leave, but Master Zhang called us again, "Slow, I see you coming all the way, and there are no acquaintances nearby, so let's come to me to rest first, Zhangjiafu lacks everything, except for rooms." ”

I thought Jiang Li would refuse him, but I didn't expect Jiang Li to agree. Probably because the grievances were thousands of years ago, it is obvious that the Zhang family's attitude towards Jiang Li is not what it used to be.

Jiang Li told me that there must be a reason behind the Zhang family's reluctance to help, it stands to reason that only the Zhang family knows best what the Miao people do, and they have long studied and understood this kind of thing in order to prevent being killed, but Master Zhang does not agree, either he is oppressed and can't help, or he really can't.

Since Master Zhang took the initiative to invite us to stay, we can check it out. What's going on with the whole thing, the matter of Liu's illness can't be delayed again and again, and we must hurry up.

Mr. Zhang's family is more wealthy than I imagined, I thought their house is better decorated, there is a housekeeper, and when we went in, we found that there are seven or eight servants before and after, the yard is very large, and there is a lotus pond, and the rich are somewhat unreasonable.

I asked Jiang Li, there are still servants in these years, isn't that something that only happened in the feudal era?

Jiang Li smiled and told me that if you have money, you can make ghosts grind, and if you have a lot of money, you can buy ghosts to come back as errand messengers!

How can the Zhang family be so rich, this is probably the richest person I have ever seen, I used to think that Lin Yongye's father was the mayor of the town, and he must be the richest person I have ever seen, but I didn't expect that there are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the sky, having said that, I haven't seen Lin Yongye for so long, I still miss him.

Jiang Li told me. The Zhang family has been doing the work of corpse chasers for generations, this is originally to make money from the dead, and making a single order is very large, no one wants to do this business, so it naturally becomes a fragrant glutton. Coupled with the thousand-year-old family business, the place where the Zhang family has money is not just this superficial thing.

The Zhang family basically doesn't do the work of driving out the corpses by themselves now, they have recruited some apprentices in their hands, squeezed their money, and can monopolize the entire industry, naturally, the money will continue to flow into the Zhang family's pockets.

Listen to Jiang Li say this. I think it's understandable that the Zhang family is rich, and now most people are taboo about these things and don't want to touch them.

Jiang and I live in one room, and the Wandering Corpse King and Liu Ai live in one room, just two rooms next to each other.

Master Zhang took care of the house, and two subordinates came to clean up the room for us, but Jiang Li politely refused, Jiang Li said, "We have trouble staying here with you." There is no need to let these people take care of them anymore, we are all Taoist people, not expensive, self-reliance is a matter of course, we understand the kindness, but these people should go back. ”

Jiang Li politely declined, and then Jiang Li asked me to clean up the bed and put things away by myself.

I asked Jiang Li, why don't you let those people help clean up, we were originally in a hurry, we have been running for so many days, so tired.

Jiang Li told me seriously, "Once you enjoy comfort, you won't be able to endure the suffering." ”

Jiang Li saw that I was at a loss, touched my head and said, "Weimingguan is cleaned by himself, will it be more comfortable to live?" ”

I nodded, it really felt that way.

Jiang Li told me. In this world, only laziness will harm people, and you must not choose comfort when it is time to accept difficulties, otherwise you will be miserable in the future.

Jiang Li's words are firmly remembered in my heart.

After the sun went down, Master Zhang asked the housekeeper to come and ask us to go down to eat, I glanced at Jiang Li, and he nodded in agreement. The four of us followed behind the housekeeper and walked towards the dining table, which can be called a full banquet of the Manchurian and Han people, and the food was extremely good, chicken, duck and fish. There are also dishes that I have never seen before.

Jiang Li looked at these dishes and didn't speak, just ate them in a bowl with green vegetables and tofu in a muffled voice, and resolutely didn't touch those meat dishes. I've been following Jiang Li for so long, and I know that he doesn't eat meat, but I think it's a pity, and the food in the world is not touched.

Eating at the table, there are also Mrs. Zhang, and the eldest son of the Zhang family, it is said that there are other people in the other Zhang family, who have gone abroad to play, so they are not at home, such a big mansion, but there are only so many people in it, it seems a little lonely.

Master Zhang told us, "Xiangxi is not much different from your Sichuan and Chongqing, Jiang Shizu should know that it is night." After dinner, you can't go out, and after washing, you have to go back to the house to rest, and don't go out of the room. ”

What Master Zhang said was mysterious, but my interest was aroused by him.

The eldest son of the Zhang family on the side didn't say a word, and when he ate, he sat upright and chewed the food in small bites, like a girl.

I asked Mr. Zhang why he did this.

Mr. Zhang was silent, and Mrs. Zhang told us with a serious face, "Young man, you don't go to Xiangxi, although our Zhang family here is in the business of chasing corpses, but many people don't need to return to their hometowns, they die here and become zombies, and if their grievances do not disperse, they will always stay, you see that the threshold at the gate of our Zhangjiamen Mansion is so high." Just to prevent zombies from jumping in. ”

I nodded.

Mrs. Zhang seemed to be unable to stop as soon as she spoke, and continued to chatter with us cracklingly, "This Xiangxi is the world of Miao people, the resort of Gu, and there may be some unclean things walking outside." Now Xiangxi is not peaceful, although my Zhang family has a place here, but we must also be careful to take precautions. ”

I asked Mrs. Zhang what was the problem with unclean things.

Mrs. Zhang was very enthusiastic and told us, "Go down to the dead." Helping to do things, there are others, we don't know the specific things, after all, it's not a business, don't interfere with each other, I've heard ......"

At this time, Master Zhang suddenly coughed. Mrs. Zhang glanced at him awkwardly and quickly closed her mouth.

Jiang Li and I looked at each other, and always felt that these two old men were a little strange.

Master Zhang must know something, and he hides it very deeply, for fear that the old lady will say that he will leak his mouth, and Master Zhang's eyes will not be cut off from Liu's sick body, and I will begin to wonder if he really can't help us, or can't help us if he is fake.

In the evening, Jiang Li asked me to go to bed early.

He sat alone at the round table, lit the lamp, and flipped through the ancient books with a serious face.

"Master, what are you doing?" I sat up. A look of curiosity.

Jiang Li said flatly, "It's been too long, look at the records about Xiangxi." ”

I happened to see a shadow outside the papier-mâché window, swaying from side to side, I pointed to the window, and Jiang Li looked along my fingertips. His face was gloomy.

"Something's coming." Jiang Li said.

Looking at Jiang Li's serious face, there must be something wrong with this thing.

I quickly jumped up from the bed, put my robe on my hand three times and two times, grabbed my magic sword in one hand, and walked straight towards Jiang Li's side.

The shadow outside the papier-mâché window was getting closer and closer, and there was a "bang-" sound. Directly pushed the door open, a pair of embroidered shoes fell on the door, and slowly walked into the room.

I was about to go up to take it in, when I realized that the person who came in turned out to be a beautiful girl.

She was wearing a big red cotton jacket, with red lips and white teeth, and she looked very delicate.

She looked back at me in surprise, "What are you doing in my room?" ”

My Jiang Li looked at each other, and Jiang Li motioned for me not to speak.

Seeing that we ignored her, the girl raised her chin proudly, and said with a noble and calm expression, "Do you Taoist priests do this when you enter other people's rooms without permission?" ”

"Who are you?" Jiang Li asked.

"I am Zhang Wanjun, the second lady of the Zhang family, the richest businessman in Xiangxi." She said proudly.

Why didn't I see this girl when I was eating today, and Jiang Li clearly said just now that something was coming, which proved that this second young lady was definitely not a living person.

But looking at her appearance, she doesn't seem to know, and she still thinks she is alive, with a pampered expression, and she still thinks that she is the young lady of the Zhang family's mansion.

Jiang Li stood up and saluted, "Excuse me, you stay first, and we'll leave immediately." ”

Jiang Li glanced at me, motioned for me to take my backpack and leave quickly, we trotted all the way to the courtyard hall, I asked Jiang Li, why did you leave, it was clearly where we slept.

Jiang Li asked me, "Haven't you seen this matter?" ”
