Glancing at Qi Chen with a slight difference, Tie Lingshuang looked up at the sluggish catchers, Tie Lance paused, and saw that everyone turned their heads to look at him,

"There is a withered peony in the main house, you go and find out where this withered peony comes from. ”

Tie Lingshuang looked at the lean catcher, it seemed that he was the only one who was reliable, and said solemnly,

"When did they enter the city, who sold them, how many plants there were, and who bought them, you have to find out. ”

After that, he looked up at the dazzling sun, and at about the middle of the hour,

"Before the end of the day, there must be results. ”

The lean catcher glanced at Qi Chen, Qi Chen nodded heavily at him, and said,

"Iron Monkey, take your brother to hurry up, find the information, and report back immediately. ”

The iron monkey nodded and was about to leave with his brothers, Qi Chen called out to him,

"Be careful, if someone is suspicious, don't do it yet, find a brother to keep an eye on, and we'll talk back first. ”

"Okay, big brother. ”

Watching a group of people run out of the gate, Qi Chen looked back at Tie Lingshuang,

"What are we going to do?"

Glancing at him, Tie Lingshuang looked sideways at Liu Yishui beside him,

"We went to track down the people who had been injured above the neck in the three months before and after Lao Li Tou's injury. We have seen through their whereabouts, and if we can't find them in the next two days, we won't need to look for them anymore. ”

Knowing that the matter was serious and there was no time to think about it more, Qi Chen and Liu Yishui both nodded.

A moment later, Qi Chen and Tie Lingshuang flashed out of the courtyard, only Liu Yishui stood under the big locust tree, frowning and looking at it for a long time, before he let out a long sigh, thinking of the wine companion in the mortuary, a trace of sadness crept up on his face.

The moon is gradually rising, and it has reached the middle of the sky.

In the Zheng family's compound, on the beam of the main house, there was a dark shadow lying on his stomach. It's really not the body type of a gentleman on the beam, most of it is exposed outside the beam, but fortunately, the tall family is big, and the beam is also old.

On the beams of the house, Qi Chen was sweating profusely. After watching the harmonious scenes in the world over and over again, the Heart Sutra and the Diamond Sutra were recited over and over again, and I couldn't help but curse secretly,

"Zheng Laoxi is really not a good thing, like a fat pig, he still has such good physical strength, it's a pity that this wife is a beautiful wife. ”

Zheng Laoxi, his ancestors started by selling illicit salt, it is said that his grandfather had a little friendship with Zhang Shicheng, the king of Cheng at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, but fortunately, he was not bold enough to rebel, but in the generation of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, he relied on selling smuggled salt, and accumulated a lot of family business.

Rich for only three generations, when he arrived at Zheng Laoxi, he ate, drank, prostituted and gambled, and was in high debt, and it seemed that it had declined, and only this set of big yards was the only family foundation.

A few years ago, Zheng Laoxi's original partner died of illness, and before he was out of seven, he ran to the pawnshop with a red face and took the purple jade head of the original marriage out, and then continued the strings of the big red sedan chair, and the onlookers in Hangzhou cursed more than once, but they couldn't stop the interest of the fat husband and wife, and threw his son in his early teens in the east wing, and the tent was warm every day.

Glancing at the table on the side of the wall, a pot of withered lotus peonies, slender and slender, the flowers were slightly tilted on their heads, as if Zhaojun was looking eastward, Qi Chen couldn't help but calm down and concentrate on guard.

At noon today, the two of them searched for the injured person on their head one by one, but there was no gain, Qi Chen couldn't help but scolded his uncle for missing two pounds and pounds in his brain, and when he went back, he opened it to see if he was also lying on his stomach with insects. Tie Lingshuang was also angry and frowned. Unexpectedly, in the end, the old man was pressed by Qi Chen and touched his head for a long time, and he was not angry.

There are hardships to eat together, scolding and scolding when he went to the south gate of the city when he broke his head, where a grumpy young man also had a wound on his head, saying that he was walking in the forest by the West Lake when he was picking medicine, and suddenly had a pain in the back of his head, and when he woke up and touched it, it was only blood, so he drank two pairs of decoction by himself.

As if they had found a treasure, the two hurriedly let go of the old man and went straight to the security hall.

Legend has it that in the Spring and Autumn Period, a shepherd boy herded cattle in Leifeng Mountain by the West Lake, and rescued a small white snake from a black eagle's beak, so he became attached to the white snake and had a grudge with the black eagle.

Time passes, the years in the mountains are easy to pass, and the world has been prosperous for thousands of years. The white snake cultivated the immortal and gained the way, and before ascending, he was guided by the South China Sea Guanyin, and there was still a cause in the world that had not yet ended.

The white lady incarnated by the white snake entered the West Lake to find the reincarnation of the shepherd boy Xu Xian to repay the kindness, but did not want to break the bridge for the first time, the Taoist heart was confused, and fell into the red dust.

How can there be an easy marriage in this world, the handsome Langjun and his charming wife opened a security hall to accumulate virtue and do good to save the world, but they didn't want to meet the black eagle reincarnated to seek revenge of the Fahai Zen master.

Xu Xian was deceived into Jinshan Temple by Fahai Zen Master, the White Lady was anxious to save her husband, incarnated as a prototype, attracted the waves of the river to come to the sky, Qiantang fell into an ocean, although Xu Xian was rescued, but committed the heavenly rule, was pressed under Lei Feng Mountain, the golden bowl in the hands of Fahai turned into a glass pagoda, suppressed forever. Leave a prophecy until the West Lake is dry and the Lei Feng Pagoda falls, so that the evil fate can be resolved.

The water of the West Lake is still the same, the Leifeng Pagoda is still the same, the security hall is still the same, only the white lady and Xu Xian have turned into a popular ladyboy love, which is endlessly spread among the people.

Tie Lingshuang squeezed everyone away from the noisy security hall, stepped out, carrying a pack of four gods soup that cleared the heat and removed the fire, he had been frowning too much recently, and he wanted to go to the fire more.

Turning into the alley on the side, he nodded to Qi Chen, who had been waiting for a long time, and said,

"Yes, the fellow in his early thirties, with a big tongue and a scent, white dust behind his ears, and another chrysalis on him. ”

Qi Chen couldn't help but be overjoyed, and was about to rush out of the alley when he pulled out his long sword, but was pulled by Tie Lingshuang.

"No, we don't have any sign of the spider, so we're going to use him as bait. ”

Looking at Tie Lingshuang with a frown, Qi Chen said questioningly,

"Can't you take out that chrysalis? It's only in your thirties, don't you save people?"

Shaking his head, Tie Lingshuang said with a cold face,

"If the chrysalis is put in, he will only have seven years to live, and if he forcibly takes it out, the chrysalis will perceive the danger and spit out the stinky glands, which is the smell of the old grandson's body, and people can't live. ”

glanced at Qi Chen, whose face was pale, and said to himself,

"The moment I smelled the withered lotus peony, I became a half-human and half-demon, and I was doomed to die. ”

After speaking, he ignored Qi Chen and turned to leave.

As soon as the two of them walked to the door of the mortuary courtyard, they happened to meet the lean iron monkey who came back from inquiring about the news, and the iron monkey hurriedly stepped forward and said respectfully,

"Big brother, Lord Tie, there is news. ”

Waving his hand, Qi Chen motioned to him not to talk nonsense, and said directly.

"We were in the most famous fragrant flower house in town, and just a little mention of it, an old gardener told us. ”

Looking up, the two of them were staring at themselves with frowns, and quickly got to the point,

"At the beginning of the spring, there was a dirty old man, full of beard, with five pots of flowers, said that it was five beauty flowers, placed at the door of the West Lake Peony Pharmacy, one thousand two and one plants, but only sold for destined people. A group of wealthy businessmen went to rob it, and the first four plants were bought by the four bitter masters, and the last one was snatched by Zheng Laoxi at the south gate. ”

Without waiting for Qi Chen to open his mouth to praise, Tie Lingshuang nodded and asked,

"Portrait of you?"

Nodding with a red face, the iron monkey hesitated slightly, took out a piece of yellow paper from his arms, unfolded it, and handed it to Tie Lingshuang. Reaching out to take it, Tie Lingshuang stared at it carefully, and couldn't help but sigh slightly.

The charcoal gray lines twisted and twisted, outlining a snake-like face that was wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, with eyes one large and one small, and the two large black holes below were considered noses.

I didn't bother to look at it any longer, and threw it to Qi Chen, who was flushed with a blushing face next to him, and said to the iron monkey who was about to stuff his head under his armpit,

"Take that person to the yamen, ask the master to draw it, draw a few more pictures, and put it on the notice wall of each door, and you and the others will go down the street to check on this person. ”

The iron monkey hurriedly nodded and left quickly, Tie Lingshuang pouted and glanced at Qi Chen,

"As a fast catcher, you can't do simple paintings, and your brothers are so unprofessional?"

This day has passed, although things are messy and strange, frightening, sad and joyful wave after wave, but Qi Chen has no anger at her, hearing this ridicule of his brother, straighten his face, and patiently explained,

"I haven't read any books, how can I paint, you are in the capital, all you see is prosperity, and people in corners like us can only make do with it. ”

Speaking gently enough, Qi Chen looked up and saw that Tie Lingshuang's face was suddenly cold, and the frost was about to fall.

Slightly strange, he caught a glimpse of the two hideous wounds on Na Bing's face, and his heart sank, and he secretly scolded himself for this stinky mouth, which really can't speak, and it is all led by an unreliable uncle. Just as he was about to open his mouth to apologize, Tie Lingshuang's voice came coldly.

"You go to that Zheng Laoxi's house and hide in the withered lotus peony room, and I'll follow that guy. ”

After speaking, he ignored Qi Chen, who opened his mouth to speak, and turned to leave. Liu Yishui staggered out of the mortuary, full of the smell of wine, his face was red like a flower, he reached out to drag his nephew, Qi Chen helplessly helped him, carried him to the bed in the house, sighed, closed the door and walked out.

As soon as the sun went down, Qi Chen, who was filling his stomach around Zheng's house, dodged over the wall and got into the main house, saw the peony flowers on the wall, put his mind at ease, and lightly touched the beam on his toes.

First, he watched this Zheng Lao Xishan delicacies and seafood, full of wine and food, waved his hand to drive away the fat son, glanced at the delicate new wife, and took out a brocade box from his sleeve.

Shaking his head and sighing, Qi Chen saw the dragon spirit and tiger fierce pills that were hot-selling in the security hall, and thought to himself, no wonder this mutated vampire monster is all flesh and blood for children, and only takes the brain that is still a little essence for this kind of wine and meat womanizer.

Finally waited until the battle subsided, pinched his fingers and calculated, it was already midnight, and I couldn't help but admire the efficacy of the strong pill, this old Chinese medicine skill in Baoantang is really authentic, if you are old in the future, you can also buy a few hundred for preparation.

Seeing the two of them lying on the bed in disheveled clothes, panting loudly, slowly getting lighter and lighter, after a while, the snoring sounded and Qi Chen's breath spread slightly, and a trace of his mind remained on the roof of the door and window, and he also began to close his eyes and breathe.

About an hour and a half later, the sound of snoring came and went, and a trace of landing sound came. Opening his eyes, Qi Chen turned over and fell, lightly touched the ground, swept to the head of the bed, stretched out his hand and clicked on the acupoints of the two people on the bed, dragged the quilt, and covered the mess.

Walked to the middle of the house, took out his twin swords and lay them in his hands, squinted a pair of tiger eyes, and stared coldly at the door with two cold lights.

"Bang"

There was a sound, and the hardwood door shattered in response, and a huge force collided, and the doors on both sides slammed into both sides, breaking most of them. The broken pieces of wood hit his body, Qi Chen didn't dodge, the long sword in his right hand was raised, and he pointed to the figure who bowed down to enter the door,

"Hey, next life, accumulate more virtue. ”
