Early morning.

The cold wind blew away the white mist, and thin clouds floated in the blue sky that seemed to freeze.

With the scattered roosters announcing the dawn, Yishui County gradually woke up from sleep.

As usual, Cui Tianyou came to work at the Yamen of the Exorcism Division early.

Last night, he annoyed the "tigress" at home because he was drunk, and he was locked outside the house all night to blow cold winds.

Although as a cultivator, sleep was not necessary for Cui Tianyou, but at this moment, he was yawning incessantly because of his mental exhaustion.

"Hmph, when the master soars one day, he must divorce that damn mother-in-law!" He secretly scolded in his heart, "First go to the teaching workshop in Luojing City for three days and three nights, and then take a concubine who is as beautiful as a flower in seven or eight rooms, and have a good addiction to the official master!" ”

As the official in charge of clerical work and money and food, the first thing Cui Tianyou does every day after arriving at the yamen is to read the latest palace newspapers, learn about the important things that have happened in the Daqi court recently, and synchronize these news to other officials.

The Great Qi Imperial Court transmitted the palace report to all prefectures and counties, using a special magic circle.

As a result, local officials are almost always the first to know about important national events.

"I don't know if there has been any new progress in the Lu family's murder house case, which is hotly discussed across the country," he thought to himself while flipping through the newspaper, "The reward of five thousand meritorious deeds, as well as the high-grade spells, look really eye-catching!"

"Alas, if only these rewards were mine.

"With these feats, maybe I can raise my cultivation to a big level - when that time comes, see if that damn tigress dares to be arrogant."

At this moment, he saw at a glance that there was a clear line of large characters written on the front page of the newspaper:

"The case of the Lu family's murder house has been solved."

Cui Tianyou's eyes widened suddenly.

He knew that the Lu murder case was not an ordinary haunted incident.

The ghost in the abandoned mansion is rumored to be powerful and cunning - it has a knack for hiding its true identity with illusions, and can silently trap and disorient people.

If Cui Tianyou remembers correctly, yesterday's newspaper still wrote that "the case is confusing and there is no progress."

How could it be so lightly unraveled overnight?

Sounds unbelievable!

"Who is the sanctity who solved this case? How can it be so amazingly efficient? Cui Tianyou silently guessed in his heart, "Could it be that the saint made a move?" ”

However, in the next second, Cui Tianyou knew the answer to this question.

I saw him look at the very familiar name on the newspaper, stunned, and felt as if he was dreaming.

"The Yishui Exorcism Division experienced Gu Xu...... Damn, this newspaper is fake, right? How could it be this kid? ”

Cui Tianyou clearly remembered that not long ago, Gu Xu mentioned more than once in front of him, "People are valuable in having self-knowledge", "Don't have unrealistic thoughts", "Desires that don't match your own abilities will only make people feel painful", "We are all weak and helpless Second Realm cultivators, and the water of a case of this level of the Lu Clan's murderous mansion is too deep, we can't control it, so let's not get involved"......

Thinking of this, Cui Tianyou pinched himself hard to confirm that he had sobered up.

Then he took a serious look at the Di Bao and saw that it was stamped with the seal of the Great Qi Imperial Court, and the seal also exuded a special Zhenyuan aura - this showed that this Di Bao was indeed real and not a forgery.

"Gu Xu, that little bastard, is simply making a fortune silently!" Cui Tianyou shook his head and couldn't help but sneer, "On the surface, I said don't want to, but in private, I made an earth-shattering news!"

"Hmph, when he comes back, I must let him go to Piaoxianglou to invite me to dinner! What's so special that you dare to deceive your feelings! Look at the master, don't eat you poor! ”

…………

Meanwhile.

Shi Xiaohan walked briskly towards the small courtyard where Gu Xu lived.

She walked and jumped like a little sparrow with fluffy feathers.

The morning sun gently caressed her pretty goose egg face, making her skin look as smooth and translucent as white porcelain.

The purpose of her trip is simple.

She was going to find Gu Xu for breakfast.

Although it is said that the taste of Gu Xu's health meal is too light and not quite in line with her taste; But she likes the feeling of sitting face-to-face with Gu Xu on both sides of the table, and likes to talk freely with him.

Soon, she arrived at No. 17 Ping'an Lane, where Gu Xu lived.

Seeing the solemn and solemn black lacquer gate, as well as the steps at the door, she actually felt a sense of pride in her heart, and couldn't help but think: "Gu Xu, this guy's house finally has a little bit of what an official of the Great Qi Imperial Court should look like." ”

She climbed the steps and knocked lightly on the door.

"Gu Xu, I'm coming to you for dinner again!" She said with a grin.

But Gu Xu didn't respond to her, nor did he open the door for her like before.

After a while, she heard a voice without any mood fluctuations coming from inside the door: "My young master is out on errands, please leave a message if you have something." ”

Shi Xiaohan recognized that this voice belonged to the little scholar that Gu Xu drew on the screen with the technique of talisman seals.

"Out on errands! I'm going out on errands again! The smile on Shi Xiaohan's face suddenly disappeared without a trace, and he stomped his feet depressedly, "That guy is really, he only knows how to do tasks all day long!"

"Alas, if you don't have any pills, just tell me no? Why bother so hard? ”

Come with anticipation and return with a sense of loss.

Shi Xiaohan finally turned around and left, and returned to work in the Exorcism Division sullenly.

However, at this moment, a dark-skinned, short-lived teenager grabbed a newspaper in his hand and ran towards Shi Xiaohan happily.

It is Wang Yang, a die-hard fan of the Exorcism Division and Gu Xu.

I saw him waving the newspaper and saying brightly: "Lord Shi, come and see the latest Di Bao!" Brother Gu actually did a big thing quietly outside without us knowing! ”

"Gu Xu? What did he do out there? ”

Hearing the word "Brother Gu", Shi Xiaohan immediately stepped forward in three steps and two steps, and snatched the newspaper from Wang Yang's hand.

When she read the contents of the newspaper clearly, she took a deep breath and stood there stunned, unable to believe her eyes.

"'Eliminate the evil ghosts in the Lu family's murderous mansion overnight and solve the big trouble of Qingzhou Mansion'...... This...... Did he really do this? ”

"Of course!" Wang Yang said with a smile, "This is the official newspaper of the imperial court, stamped with the seal of the imperial court, and it is impossible to fake it."

"Lord Shi, do you even doubt Brother Gu's ability? I've always believed in him! ”

"No, I don't doubt it." Shi Xiaohan said without thinking.

At the same time, she still had half an unfinished sentence in her heart: This ghost in the Lu family's murderous mansion looks so terrifying, I'm just afraid that he will be injured inside.
