Chapter 124: The Silver Cross
Rong
The bearded Bill Emerson hugged Zhang Wen and said:
"Zhang, my project has been successfully completed, and in the past half a month, I have found that you are a very good helper with a very good spirit of exploration!"
"Your research is good, too." Zhang Wen said: "I look forward to hearing from you, Bill, when you win the award, remember to write to me, maybe I will go to cheer for you." ”
"Of course!" The bearded man smiled: "By the way, there is one more thing I want to give you." ”
The bearded man took off the silver cross necklace around his neck and flipped over the cross, with the letters "Bill" written on the back.
"Identification"
"Silver Cross (Inferior Ritual Weapon), Cost: 1, Evaluation: A cross worn by the faithful, capable of dispelling evil and darkness."
Zhang Wen looked at the bearded man in surprise, but the bearded man said: "The courtesy is still exchanged, I will take your peace charm." ”
"I'll keep it."
Someone behind him said, "Teacher, let's take a group photo." ”
It was the bearded man's helper, but when he started researching, Zhang Wen did not allow people other than the bearded man to participate, one more person, one more danger.
Zhang Wen shook hands with the bearded man while looking at the camera.
Syllable!
The flash lights on.
"I also left some things in Huangshan Village, maybe you will need them." The bearded man waved his hand at Zhang Wen and got into the car.
The car started, and Zhang Wen stood at the intersection to watch it leave.
The bearded man will return home first, and may study mummies or vampires next, but more likely to publish an article first.
Zhang Wen put away the silver cross, and as soon as he walked to the post station to get the carriage, he found that Uncle Nine was also here.
There are three more people beside Uncle Nine.
One master, two apprentices.
The mustache master's fingers were stuffed into his nostrils and spun around twice.
"Uncle Nine." Zhang Wen stepped forward to say hello.
"Arwen, what a coincidence?"
"yes, I just sent a friend away." Zhang Wen looked at the three people beside Uncle Jiu: "Who are these people?" ”
"Nothing."
Uncle Nine had a cold face: "I don't know." ”
"Hey! You don't know me! The mustache flicked its fingers, and the boogers flew out.
He opened his mouth and spittled wildly: "I don't know you yet, if you don't mess around this time, will my customers be lost?" ”
"If you don't have the ability, don't learn to be a master! Mistaken children. Uncle Nine also lost his temper: "The first time you drove out the corpse, you made such a big mess, I see how you end." ”
Seeing Zhang Wen standing beside him, Uncle Nine sighed: "The first time this guy drove the corpse, he lost the customer, what do you say!" ”
Zhang Wen understood what Uncle Nine meant, just now they were still harmonious, but as soon as he came, Uncle Nine was furious.
There is only one reason, deliberately acting for himself.
Zhang Wen didn't let Uncle Jiu get off the stage, he said: "If it's just looking for a corpse, I can also help, why don't you go back to Renjia Town with me?" ”
"I can't go." Uncle Nine said: "He lost his father, how to go?" ”
"I wonder whose corpse it is?"
"Rong County, Ren Mansion."
Only then did Zhang Wen understand that Uncle Nine wanted to use his own face to plead for mercy.
"I still have some contacts with Renfu, maybe I can go and say a few words, Uncle Nine, it just so happens that I want to ask you for help with something, and I will talk about it when I return to Renjia Town."
Since everyone has something to ask for each other, there is no need to hide it.
Uncle Nine's face softened, and let him pull down his face and owe favors, but he was still not very comfortable, so that everyone was much more comfortable.
Several people went to Ren's mansion together,
As soon as Uncle Jiu and the others were about to enter the door, they were driven out by the guards at the door.
After a while, I heard a rough panting roar: "I have already reported to the county magistrate, if I can't find my father's body within two days, none of you can escape!" ”
"Mr. Zhang?" Boss Ren walked to the door, found Zhang Wen, and immediately put on a smiling face.
"How's Jingjing doing?" Zhang Wen asked.
"Reciting the scriptures every day, it's much better." Boss Ren said, "Mr. Zhang, please come inside." ”
"Don't hide it from the boss, I'm here for another thing." Zhang Wen turned sideways, revealing the embarrassed Uncle Nine and the others.
Uncle Jiu's name is still good in Renjia Town, but in Rong County, no one really knows him.
"Humph!"
Boss Ren snorted coldly:
"Mr. Zhang, you also know that my father died in a foreign land, these people collected the money and were responsible for sending my father's body back, Xin'er said yesterday, but when they arrived, my father lost it! How do you think that's calculated? ”
Zhang Wen nodded: "It really shouldn't, and I'm not here to be a peacemaker." ”
Seeing that Boss Ren's face softened a little, Zhang Wencai said: "I want to sell my face and give them a day and a night to find Old Lady Ren." ”
"Boss Zhang wants this face, of course Ren wants to give it." Boss Ren asked rhetorically: "I can find everything to say, but what if I can't find it?" ”
"Can't find it?" Zhang Wen turned his head and looked at the eight-character beard and his two apprentices who were no longer picking their noses and trembling.
Uncle Nine stepped forward and said, "If you can't find it, you will be locked in the yamen and wait for disposal!" ”
"Good!"
Boss Ren nodded: "Today, Ren will sell Mr. Zhang's face!" I don't send it! ”
The door was closed, and Zhang Wen was not even invited into Ren's mansion for a cup of tea.
Uncle Nine walked over, a little embarrassed: "Awen, I'm bothering you about this matter." ”
"It's not troublesome, it's just that Boss Ren's attitude has changed a little bit before and after." Zhang Wen turned his head strangely and glanced at the Ren Mansion with the door closed.
Uncle Nine said: "You have to help these three masters and apprentices who are not angry, and it is normal for people to be angry." ”
"What help us, we had two more days, and as soon as this kid opened his mouth, there was still one day and one night left!" Bazihu's reluctant defense.
"Shut up!" Uncle Nine was also angry by the unangry eight-character beard: "If the three of you could find it, you would have found it a long time ago, but do you have to wait until now?" ”
Uncle Nine hates iron and steel, since Zhang Wen promised to help, he dared to say that he would find it in one day and one night, so naturally it could not be a lie.
But as soon as the eight-character Hu opened his mouth, he relied on Zhang Wen, and he was really not afraid that Zhang Wen would pat his ass and leave, regardless of them?!
At worst, it is a loss of body and loss of money, and at a large level, there is a disaster of imprisonment, and it is normal to be locked up for a few years.
As soon as you enter the prison cell, life and death are unpredictable.
"Uncle Nine rest assured, send the Buddha to the west."
Zhang Wen said: "When I go back, I will ask the police department to help me find it, and at night I will find some friends in the woods to help, it is not a big problem." ”
Uncle Nine roughly understood who Zhang Wen's "friend in the woods" was, and nodded.
He wanted to persuade Zhang Wen not to get too close to the ghost, but the current situation needed the ghost's help.
"What I really wonder about is the change in Boss Ren's attitude towards me, when he saw me before, he was not so eager to find an excuse to clear up the relationship now."
Zhang Wen couldn't figure it out, so he shook his head: "Forget it, let's go back to Renjia Town first." ”
