Chapter Twenty-Four: It Moves!

Wan Li stopped talking, he felt that some clues had surfaced, and he had to straighten it out in his mind. Although the middle-aged eldest sister still talked about trivial matters in the town, his years of experience as a psychiatrist gave him the ability to talk to her and think about things at the same time, not to mention that he only needed to react slightly, this kind and talkative eldest sister just wanted to talk and didn't care about his answer.

From the beginning, they thought it might be related to the kiln. Although there is no direct evidence of a connection to the kiln, it does confirm that there is indeed an inextricable connection between those who are trapped in the empty town—they are all officials, they are promoted together, they are close, they have worked together for the benefit of the town, and they have secretly done some experiments on porcelain together.

Could it be that they did something unreasonable together, and then invited a man with magic power to suppress the resentful spirit, and all this was learned by Sima Nan either unintentionally or intentionally, and as a result, he released the resentful spirit and helped the resentful spirit set up this bureau to take revenge? Of course, he also wants to achieve some of his own goals, and he is not profitable not to get up early!

It seems that we should contact Ruan Zhan immediately, inform each other of the situation, and then determine what to do next. Now the mystery is about to be solved, but the more this time comes, the more cautious it becomes, because the critical moment is the most likely to cause accidents.

"Oops, it's so late!" The middle-aged eldest sister was talking happily when she suddenly shouted, "The children and adults are going home, and I have to cook." She turned around and left in a hurry, but after only a few steps, she turned her head and said to Wanli like she remembered something, "I also want to prepare a copy for Feng Niang, why don't I take some more, this gentleman will eat and then leave!" ”

Wanli wanted to refuse, but probably no one chatted so happily with this eldest sister for a long time, so she was particularly enthusiastic to keep Wanli, saying that the local specialties she made were much stronger than those in the restaurant, and Wanli was not good to refuse again, so she had to agree to stay.

Taking advantage of the time when the eldest sister went to cook, Wan Li tried to talk to Feng Niang, because since he entered the courtyard gate, she hadn't said a word, just while gently wiping the four pieces of porcelain repeatedly, she smiled quietly, watching Wan Li talk to the eldest sister, with a happy face. Thinking of her poor background, Wanli only felt sad and wanted to help her with something.

But no matter what he said, Feng Niang just smiled with him and stroked his face, and finally he had to give up and communicate with her silently in the way she liked. He knew that Feng Niang wanted him to feel like he was in his own home, so he was not polite and took a tour of this small courtyard.

There are two simple small sheds in the place where you enter this small courtyard, which are the kitchen and utility room at first glance, but the smoke and fire are very cold, and it is obviously idle for a long time. On the opposite side is a row of three rooms, and in the middle is Feng Niang's room, simple and unpretentious, even shabby; The room on the left is the Buddha Hall, which is small but quite clean, and there is a small incense burner burning quietly; The room on the right is not large, the furniture is simple, and although it is also very clean, when the door is opened, there is an indescribable cold rushing to the face.

"This is Yuko's room." Feng Niang suddenly spoke, startled.

When he turned his head, he saw Feng Niang standing behind him carrying the wooden box with porcelain. He hurriedly stretched out his hand to help, but Feng Niang dodged away and didn't let him touch the wooden box, and put the wooden box on the bed upright, and then stroked it for a long time, muttering to himself as if the wooden box had life.

Wanli stood there stunned for a while, and suddenly had a strange feeling, as if he had disturbed something, so he withdrew from the room. Fortunately, it didn't take long for the fast-talking eldest sister to walk into the yard with a large aluminum plate, and there were two large bowls of vegetables and a few steamed buns on the plate.

"Try my craft, you have a meal and want to eat the next meal!" She greeted warmly, and then called Feng Niang out as well.

It was summer, and the small table for eating was placed in the courtyard, and the fast-mouthed eldest sister was going to help Wanli after helping Feng Niang pack the meal, but Feng Niang stopped her. Wanli and Sister Kuaizui were a little surprised, and they didn't understand what was going on, so they wanted to ask, but they saw the old man walk into the room on the right, and when he came out, he was holding the pair of snow-white dishes in his hands.

"Here's for you!" Feng Niang said with a smile.

Wanli heard the eldest sister beside her gasp and glanced back suspiciously.

"OMG!" The eldest sister of Kuaizui looked incredulous, "That's Feng Niang's baby, usually when others touch it, she has to work hard with others, and today she actually used it for you to eat?!" ”

Wanli didn't know what to say, so he saw Feng Niang diligently helping him pack rice and vegetables, and then stuffed it in his hand, staring at him and letting him eat. He was born very bold, he was not afraid of heaven and earth, he was never overly nervous, and he died several times without blinking, but at this moment, holding the exquisite rice bowl, his hands kept trembling.

It doesn't matter if it's worth it or not, it's Feng Niang who cares about it so much, if she breaks this bowl, isn't it a great crime?

"Eat!" The old man urged again, and Wan Li trembled and took a mouthful of rice in his mouth, chewed it casually and swallowed it twice.

The fast-mouthed eldest sister on the side looked at it in a daze for a while, and hurriedly ran home to break the news and gossip, leaving Wanli alone here and sitting still. And the more nervous he was, the more he felt that the bowl in his hand was particularly heavy, and he felt that the bowl was shaking while eating, so frightened that he immediately held the bowl tightly, for fear that it would break.

However, when he held the bowl tightly in the palm of his hand, a strange feeling suddenly struck, why did the bowl start to heat up, and finally it began to get hot, making his palm feel like it had been bitten! Did you hold it for too long, or did you hallucinate?

He hurriedly put the bowl on the small wooden table and glanced at Feng Niang, but the old man didn't say anything, just slowly ate his own food, in his opinion, there was no fraud at all, and he didn't seem to find anything abnormal in the bowl.

He calmed down and looked at the sky. It was dusk at this time, and the light was very weak, and they were sitting in a shady place, with no direct sunlight on it, and even if they were exposed to the sun, it should be warm, and it could not have the hot feeling just now.

He tentatively reached out and touched the edge of the bowl again—it was indeed hot, not to the point of burning, but at least above seventy degrees.

"What's going on?" He muttered under his breath.

As if in response to him, right under his nose, the beautiful white bowl suddenly moved.

Wanli's heart tightened, and he looked up at Feng Niang, and found that the old man was calm and constant, as if nothing had happened. Could it be that I am too tired and dizzy these days? He rubbed his eyes and stared at the bowl, hoping that he had seen it wrong, but for the next few seconds, what he saw made him almost scream like in the advertisement: it will move!

He hesitated, touched the edge of the bowl with his hand, felt it tremble, and slowly approached the plate until they collided with each other and made a 'ding' sound.

Wan Li frowned, and another question popped up in his heart.

Do these porcelains have spirit attachments? The old man always said to people that his son Feng Yongzi did not die, and he came to see her, wouldn't it be Feng Yongzi's soul who couldn't rest assured that his mother couldn't wander for many years, right?

It seems that it is necessary to investigate the origin of these four pieces of porcelain! Also, if everyone is silent about what happened back then, then asking about the cause of Feng Yongzi's death may be able to deduce the truth of the matter.

"Feng Niang, who sold you this baby?" Wanli saw that the old man had finished eating, and was looking at him kindly, trying to ask for some clues.

"Baby, it's mine." The old man turned the bowl upside down, and he didn't care if he spilled the rice on the table, but just touched the lines of the bowl lovingly, "Mine, it was originally mine!" ”

"Feng Niang, I know it's yours, but how did it come about?"

"My son calls me mother." The old man smiled happily, "He is a filial child, and he will not leave his mother alone." ”

Wanli opened his mouth, he wanted to continue to ask in the same way he usually treats patients, but for some reason in the face of this old man, he just couldn't ask, unwilling to uncover the scars in her heart, even if it was beneficial to the cure. Although he loved his job, he now felt that he might not be suitable for this profession, he was too soft-hearted, and he had lost his cool judgment and medical rigor.

He stayed for a while, patiently listening to the old man's repeated words of praise for his son, and waited for the eldest sister to clean up the dishes before leaving. Before leaving, he praised the eldest sister of Kuaizui's cooking skills a few words, and asked the eldest sister to happily make an appointment with him to come back the next day to taste other dishes. In fact, the eldest sister's food may be really good, but he couldn't eat it at all just now, and of course he didn't feel anything delicious, he did this to let this outspoken and kind sister change shifts with other neighbors who take turns to take care of Feng Niang, so that he can further investigate the hidden truth from her tomorrow.

Things are urgent, Ruan Zhan needs help! But he can't mess around, chasing too quickly may not have an effect. Therefore, he first had to go back to the inn to stimulate the yin and yang shopkeeper, and then exchange information with Ruan Zhan before making the next step.

Thinking so, he walked slowly around the main streets of the town, and let the men who were anxious to find him like ants on a hot pot because they couldn't find him 'surprised' before returning to the inn.

As soon as he returned to the room, he called the front desk and was furious, clamoring for the owner to come over, putting on a menacing appearance, and the waiter on the other side of the phone was so frightened that the waiter on the other side of the phone hurriedly found the boss.

"Boss Sun, your service is too bad!" He seemed to be very angry, "I just ordered dinner and still don't bring it to me, the food I cook is unpalatable, the bath water is not hot, you see, the hygiene is not clean, are you really embarrassed to ask for so much money for a night?" ”

Boss Sun got along with him for a few days, and felt that he was a very gentle person, and he didn't understand why he suddenly became mad, so he didn't answer for a while.

In fact, although it is not a five-star hotel, it is also the best one in the town, and the conditions and services are very good, but Wan Li is deliberately finding fault, just to let this vexatious trouble be heard by Sima Nan, who is spying on him. That person thinks of himself as elegant, and he will definitely be bored by listening to it. When he doesn't bother to eavesdrop on the dispute, he doesn't pay attention to him. By then, his little trick would have been more than enough to fool the other bales who were spying on him.

Of course, he must remember not to overdo it, otherwise he will be suspicious.

"This—"

"Don't do this or that." Wanli still spoke in a hard tone, but he maintained his demeanor, otherwise it would be like his usual appearance. He was very worried about arguing with Boss Sun, after all, he was not very good at arguing. This reminded him of Xiao Xia, although she is not a very good lawyer, her ability to catch loopholes in other people's words is first-class, and she always has the upper hand when she argues.

However, Boss Sun is a smart man, and although he saw Wanli's expression, his eyes were very vigilant, and he always looked around, knowing that he might have other things, so he just argued a few words. He spoke smoothly and seemed to be very cooperative, so the two of them had been arguing for more than half an hour about a trivial matter, although it was very annoying, but they didn't quarrel at all, and it seemed to outsiders that they were just barking alone.

"Okay, you said that your service is good, you can come and see the bathroom with me." Wanli kicked open the bathroom door.

It should be almost, which will make Sima Nan mistakenly think that he lost control of his emotions under anxiety because he couldn't find a clue about the matter! He was really tired of arguing, and then he realized that quarreling was also very physical, and it was estimated that the effect should have been achieved, so he hurriedly moved on to the next step.

As soon as Boss Sun came in, he immediately closed the door of the bathroom and pasted a charm on the door with a 'snap'.

It was one of the spells left by Ruan Zhan, and although it could not form an enchantment, it could keep a relatively closed environment from being spied on by outsiders. The reason why he wanted to act in the last scene so troublesomely, instead of using the spell directly, was to make Sima Nan think that he and Boss Sun were talking about the hotel, and he would not be suspicious of him from Wanli's behavior, so that Boss Sun would not be implicated.

The most advantageous thing is that the bathrooms here are secret guards and have no windows, so unless Sima Nan hides in the toilet, they are safe.

His behavior of pasting charms startled Boss Sun, and his face turned white.

"Don't be afraid, this is an isolation charm, and if you stick this one, the outside world won't be able to hear us." "Please forgive me for yelling at you, but trust me, there's a person in this shop that you and I have to guard against." ”

"What do you mean?" Boss Sun came to his senses, "I opened my shop, and everyone who came was a guest, so it has nothing to do with me!" ”

"Do less tai chi. You're a smart person, you should know how you would have come to you recklessly if I hadn't had a little clue? Wan Li made it clear to him and said, "You asked me to go to Zhenxi openly and secretly, didn't you just show me a way?" Why, still not admitted? I'll tell you, I've found Feng Niang, and I've got those moving porcelain. ”

Boss Sun didn't speak, but his face was cloudy.

"Your father is the official surnamed Sun back then, right?" Wanli continued, "Let's be honest, the people who did that intolerable thing back then were all trapped in the new town, life and death are unknown, I believe you understand what it is for." ”

"You don't have to lie to me." Boss Sun said, "Let's talk about it, I don't know anything." ”

"You don't know? So why hint at me? It's paradoxical, but I can understand that maybe you have a last resort. But whether you do it out of good intentions or out of atonement, no one can get rid of it. ”

"I really don't know."

"Okay, then you bring the lamp and vase that scared Miss Yue last time, and I'll ask in person." What happened to Xiao Xia in this hotel, Ruan Zhan has already told Wanli. At this point, Wan Li is a little disgusted with this Boss Sun. Just say anything, why bother pretending to scare women, even if there is something unspeakable, as a man, you can make your own choice. His behavior is actually a psychological persecution desire, he can't do what he can't decide, and subconsciously asks others to force him, so that he can passively let the result choose him.

It's escapism! It's a pity that things are too urgent now, and he doesn't have time for him to escape!

"Why-" Boss Sun suddenly stopped talking, but his face changed, which showed that this sentence just spoke to his heart.

"How do I know yes? Because that Miss Yue and I were in the same group, and there was also a mage with very high mana power, and now they were dealing with the resentful spirits in the new town, and I was cooperating outside. You must have seen it, otherwise you wouldn't have led me to Feng Niang in the west of the town! ”

When Boss Sun heard this, he didn't speak for a long time, and then asked softly, "How are those people?" ”

"A few are still alive, and the rest are all dead, and they are dying miserably." In order to hit his psychological defense, Wan Li told the truth, "These resentful spirits are too resentful, and they won't be finished until the last one is killed." ”

Boss Sun trembled visibly, "My father has been dead for many years. ”

"The spirits don't care about that. People in town don't know about it, but you probably will. Some of those people are the descendants of those who were responsible back then, although they have not done anything wrong with their own hands, but they still have to pay for their lives! Miss Yue had nothing to do with this matter at all, but she was also involved. So, you can't do it if you want to protect yourself. ”

"But I've been helping—" Boss Sun rushed out, but stopped in time.

Wanli was irritable, and he didn't understand why he was always halfway through his words, it seemed that his unspeakable concealment did put a lot of psychological pressure on him. He hadn't actually talked a lot about Ruan Zhan through the news, and many of them were just deceiving him, but now it was certain that he must know about it, at least a little bit of it.

"Who have you been helping?" Seeing that Boss Sun was still hesitating, Wan Li said mercilessly, "It doesn't matter if you don't say it, when the time comes, there will be no resentful spirits trapped in that city, so you just wait to die." Master Long may have profound mana, but it has been destroyed by someone! ”

"No, I don't want to die, I've had enough. My father is dead, I have been helping Feng Yongzi's family, and I also hinted that you and Miss Yue went to clear the grievances of the year, I should not be punished! ”

Really!

Wan Li let out a long breath, "Did you send the porcelain to Feng Niang?" Your father was one of the people involved in the first kiln, and he brought out the only remaining porcelain, right? But why is it spiritual? ”

"I don't know, I really don't." Boss Sun said, "My father just told me before he died, told me that they had done something hurtful, asked me to send the porcelain out, asked me to help Feng Yongzi's family, and asked me to find a way to find someone to clear my grievances before moving into a new town." He really didn't tell me anything, I just thought that Miss Yue came from a big city to popularize the law, and I also felt that you were looking for her, so I-"

"At least you're going to tell me that the porcelain is attached to Feng Yongzi?"

...
