Dongsheng Building.

"Money shopkeeper, the county magistrate wants to entertain guests here tonight!"

"That's good! The county magistrate is here, my little shop is very honored! The money shopkeeper grinned.

"However, my lord told you to stay and tell the guests about the dishes!" The little official said, "Because these guests are all from Beijing, they don't know much about our dishes here, and the status of the guests is noble, so you can't go wrong, so you have to come in person!" ”

"Don't worry! I will definitely satisfy the prefectural magistrate! ”

The money shopkeeper patted his chest and promised.

……

Night falls.

The group went to Dongsheng Building under the leadership of the county order.

After waiting for the various dishes to be served, the county magistrate pulled the money shopkeeper over and asked him to accompany him to drink.

"I don't know what these nobles are called?"

The county magistrate hurriedly said, "These people are noble, and it is inconvenient to reveal their identities!" ”

Listening to the county order's rhetoric, the money shopkeeper felt that these people must be more powerful than the county officials.

When the banquet ended very late, Zhang Muzhi quietly broke off a piece of syrup made of syrup while people were not paying attention, and then found an excuse to leave first.

And the lamp of the Guo family was also brought by him.

Because it was too late, the money shopkeeper simply stayed in the restaurant.

But when he returned to the house and lay down, he noticed a ghost on the wall.

The money shopkeeper immediately broke out in a cold sweat, he understood that someone had seen through his ghost trick!

"No, I've got to go and destroy that oil lamp right now!"

He immediately put on his clothes and went out, not noticing that the oil lamp he was looking for was in this room.

He tiptoed over the wall from his house to Guo's house.

At this time, the officials hiding in the house had already laid an ambush.

Just as he walked into the room, the fire was lit up.

Soon the candles in the house were lit and the whole house was lit.

"Money shopkeeper, what are you doing at the Guo family?"

"I ......," the money shopkeeper was speechless.

"When death is coming, it's not as truthful as it gets!"

"Say, did you kill Guo Xu and his wife Du Liniang?"

"Yes!"

The money shopkeeper also admitted it.

"Then you tell the official the truth, why ......?"

The county official was halfway through his words when he was interrupted by Zhang Muzhi.

"My lord, did I solve the problem for you?"

"Yes! Dao Chang Shenwei, sure enough, the name is well deserved! ”

"You have to get it, don't talk about these vain, hurry up and offer three hundred taels of silver!" Zhang Muzhi said, "In addition, arrange a place for us to live and come according to the highest standards!" ”

"It's good, it's better to ...... after the trial"

"Stop, it's your business how you interrogate, we're not interested in knowing!" Zhang Muzhi said, "So hurry up and arrange it, it's not too early!" ”

"Okay, it's the official who is abrupt!" The county official said, "You take a few people to Dingfu Building to open three good guest rooms!" The silver will be sent to the inn for the three of them early tomorrow morning! ”

"Good!" Zhang Muzhi said, "I'm not a greedy person for money, this talisman to keep you safe!" ”

As he spoke, he handed a talisman to the county magistrate.

"Thank you Daochang Zhang! Oh no, Zhang Shenxian! ”

"Let's go!"

Zhou Ji looked at Zhang Muzhi, "You really only recognize money and don't recognize people, why don't you wait for others to finish the trial and leave together?" ”

……

After interrogation, the money shopkeeper also explained the matter as it was.

The money shopkeeper has a personal relationship with Du Liniang, and the two quietly communicate behind their backs, but Guo Xu has been kept in the dark.

In order to have a tryst with Du Liniang, he secretly bought a yard across the wall from Du Liniang's house, and the two often went over the wall to date when Guo Xu was not at home. There is no impermeable wall in the world, and the private relationship between the two of them was discovered by Guo Xu.

Guo Xu claimed to report to the official to threaten to extort money from the shopkeeper.

Guo Xu is a scoundrel, he asks for more and more money, and often goes to Dongsheng Building to eat and drink for nothing, and makes trouble in the restaurant when he gets drunk. The money shopkeeper couldn't bear it anymore and decided to kill him.

The money shopkeeper first found a Jianghu Langzhong, bought him a slow-onset poison, and then deceived Du Liniang, telling her that he would marry Du Liniang after killing Guo Xu.

Du Liniang was overjoyed, thinking that she could become a rich wife from now on, so she really poisoned Guo Xu.

Guo Xu drank the poisoned wine and left the house, but he came to Dongsheng Tower by mistake, and at this time, it happened that the poison attacked, and Guo Xu died on the spot.

The money shopkeeper was ruthless, knowing that Lin County's order would find out about him sooner or later, and he recently had a new love, and he wanted to kick Du Liniang away.

So he used Guo Xu's ghost to frighten Du Liniang, and when Lin Xianling and others investigated at Du Liniang's house, the money shopkeeper hid in the dark to observe. When Lin Xianling and the others left, the money shopkeeper quietly entered Du Li's house.

The money shopkeeper brought a bottle of wine, which had already been drugged.

Du Liniang did not find that the wine was poisonous, after she drank the poisoned wine and was poisoned, the money shopkeeper who took the antidote returned to Du Liniang's house, took away the extra wine glass and bottle, and pretended to be the scene of Du Liniang's suicide by drinking.

……

The next day, early in the morning.

When Zhang Muyi went out, he saw that the two officials were already standing at the door.

It's the two who clashed with them yesterday.

"Daochang Zhang, these three hundred taels of silver are ready. Adults are afraid that it is inconvenient for you to carry, so I changed it to Daming treasure banknotes! ”

Zhang Muzhi took the Daming treasure banknote and said, "Okay, you go back!" ”

"Zhang Daochang, which one ...... We ......"

The two of them were a little embarrassed.

"What? You want my money? Zhang Muzhi felt a little incredible, no one had ever been able to ask for money from him.

"No, no!"

"We saw Daochang Zhang's supernatural powers yesterday, and we also want to ask for a peace charm, just one!"

"That's it! But I can't give it for nothing! ”

"We know, we know!"

The two of them immediately took out a silver ingot, "Daochang Zhang, don't be too little, we don't have much silver......"

"You don't have to sell badly, that's all!"

Zhang Muzhi went into the house and found some rune paper from his luggage, and wrote one for the two of them personally.

"Take it!"

"Thank you, Daochang Zhang!"

"Thank you, Daochang Zhang!"

……

The three of them set off again and finally arrived at Longhu Mountain five days later.

At the foot of the mountain, there were already more than a dozen Taoist priests waiting for Zhang Muzhi at the foot of the mountain.

"Uncle Shepherd's morning!"

"Uncle Shepherd's morning!"

Liu Dong and Zhou Ji were a little confused, these people looked the same age as Zhang Muzhi, and some were even older than him, how could they call him uncle?

Zhang Muzhi nodded and looked at the crowd, "The old man has made it clear to you!" ”

"The Heavenly Master has already made it clear to us!"

"That's good, let's get started!"

Zhang Muzhi said to Liu Dong, "Let's go up the mountain first!" ”

"What about me?" Zhou Ji was puzzled.

At this time, I saw that more than a dozen Taoist priests were walking towards Zhou Ji one by one, and they surrounded him at once.
