Chapter 192: According to the map, uninvited night guests
But let's be honest, it's also fairly normal.
After all, when the Fuding Chamber of Commerce recruited workers to leave, they said that they would go for about a year.
But the bad thing is that Zhou Dahai's third son originally sent a letter back every half a month, saying how he was doing, and the situation of his two elder brothers.
Since the end of last year, the letter has been broken.
Until the end of the Chinese New Year, Zhou Dahai did not receive any information from his three sons at home.
But that's about it.
Zhou Dahai's son is tall and big, and the other party is the Fuding Chamber of Commerce, the famous Chamber of Commerce in Jinling, so there is no need to worry about any accidents.
It's just that those three cubs are too tired to write letters.
Until the day after the New Year, Zhou Dahai went to the market to buy meat.
Suddenly, I caught a glimpse of a young deacon walking down a carriage of the Fuding Chamber of Commerce on the street.
- It was the one who took the three brothers of the Zhou family away.
He thought about going up and asking.
Nazhi said in advance that he had been working a lot lately, so he shouldn't worry.
Zhou Dahai also believed it, until the deacon got into the car, he saw three golden locks hanging on the other party's waist!
Immediately, my eyes widened!
In an instant, I recognized it!
That is the golden lock that I gave to my three children since childhood, and each golden lock is engraved with a word - Chen, Xiu, and Tsubaki.
It happens to be his daughter-in-law, that is, the name of the mother of the three brothers of the Zhou family.
Zhou Dahai immediately grabbed the deacon and asked him where the golden lock came from.
The deacon said it was his.
It wasn't until Zhou Dahai pointed to the words on it and asked sharply that the deacon changed his words and said that it was rewarded by the Chamber of Commerce.
Zhou Dahai naturally didn't believe it!
Not to mention that this deacon's preface does not match the afterword, only those three golden locks, the three of them cannot be sold!
He told the three brothers of the Zhou family since he was a child that this golden lock must be carried all the time, even if the head falls off, otherwise the golden lock will not be able to fall!
The three brothers of the Zhou family are also very obedient, and it is impossible to sell their mother's relics!
From that moment on, Zhou Dahai knew that something was wrong.
He went to the Fuding Chamber of Commerce again and again to make trouble, but he was all blown out.
He asked the Fuding Chamber of Commerce again, where the three brothers of the Zhou family were, and he wanted to visit by himself, but the Fuding Chamber of Commerce excused himself with commercial secrets.
Zhou Dahai, who was desperate, went to find the government, but after the government came, the Fuding Chamber of Commerce directly took out the deed they had signed before, which clearly stated that the three brothers of the Zhou family had been working for the Chamber of Commerce for a year, and the government could not interfere.
At this time, Zhou Dahai really had no choice.
The last time I went to the Fuding Chamber of Commerce to make trouble, I was beaten by a few miscellaneous servants and driven out.
In despair, he went to the Ghost City God's Temple.
In the folk customs of Jinling, the ghost city god is the patron saint of a series of out-of-the-way professions such as executioners and corpse collectors.
In the past, before each executioner joined the army, he would go to the ghost town god temple to kill a cow and sacrifice to the ghosts and gods, so as to ensure the safety of his own life in the future.
So Zhou Dahai, who was completely helpless, finally ran to the ghost city god temple where he killed cattle on a rainy night, and kowtowed!
Please, the heavens and gods, help him find his three sons!
Life to see people, death to see corpses!
An old man, resting in the gloomy temple, kowtowing vigorously!
In the end, he died alive!
Later, it was discovered by passers-by, so he reported to the official and asked the corpse collector to pull it up.
But this week the sea is dead.
Where can I look at it?
It's just the three of them that I've worked so hard to pull up, and it's gone, who is willing?
Endless obsession, turned into an attempted wish, and it will not be dispersed for a long time.
In addition, one by one the executioners were killing cattle and sacrificing in the Ghost City God's Temple, and over time, this place became a place surrounded by yin energy.
Zhou Dahai's ghost was nourished by this yin qi, turned into evil ghosts, and wandered the world.
- Again, if it weren't for the different paths of people and ghosts, those corpse collectors would have been gone long ago.
After watching the marquee, Yu Chen let out a long breath of turbidity.
He understood.
Zhou Dahai, who has been miserable all his life, just wants to find his son, to put it bluntly.
To live is to see people, and to die is to see corpses.
This is really desperate, and even to worship the ethereal ghosts.
Unfortunately, the ghosts and gods ignored him.
"I don't care about the ghosts and gods, I'll take care of them."
Yu Chen looked at the angry ghost on the bank of the Huangquan River, turned around and left.
After leaving the underworld, he packed up and prepared to go down the mountain.
- Because of the so-called trade secrets of the Fuding Chamber of Commerce, Zhou Dahai's third son's letter never mentioned where they worked.
Yu Chen couldn't find any traces of the three of them from Zhou Dahai's marquee.
But it doesn't matter.
- Aren't there those three golden locks?
The three golden locks that originally belonged to the three brothers of the Zhou family, or the deacon of the Fuding Chamber of Commerce who carried the three golden locks.
Speaking of this Fuding Chamber of Commerce, Yu Chen suddenly remembered two things.
First, when he first came to Jinling, Zhou Gongzi, who was angry and trampled to death by the people, seemed to be the patriarch of the Fuding Chamber of Commerce?
Second, in the information given by Wan Shenglou, there is a rumor that catches the wind and shadows, saying that the actual controller of this Fuding Chamber of Commerce seems to be the person of King Shenwu?
With that in mind, he packed up his things and went down the mountain.
It was late at night.
But under Yu Chentian's eyes, everything was like daylight.
And in Zhou Dahai's marquee, he also clearly remembered the appearance and address of the young deacon with the golden lock.
Naturally, it didn't take much effort to find a place.
Jinling Baishi City, an antique house.
At the door, the rain was majestic, and a black shadow stood in the rain, and the strange thing was that the raindrops the size of lychees could not fall on him.
Yu Chen jumped over, climbed over the fence, and landed in the courtyard.
As soon as the eyes of heaven were opened, the ears and eyes were clear, and in less than half an hour, they found the deacon.
At this moment, he was sleeping soundly, and there were three golden locks on the table.
Yu Chen didn't bother to engage in those mysteries anymore, so he directly covered his whole body with Senluo's face and pushed the door in.
Lift the sleeping deacon out of bed!
At this moment, the people opened their eyes in a daze, and were just about to get up a little angry, when they saw an angry-eyed judge's face lying in the darkness.
The deacon stared at Yu Chen for two blinks, and his head was stunned!
Ah!
Isn't this the Yin Judge who has been rumored to be in a lot of trouble lately?
After reacting, his scalp was numb, and he was directly scared to pee his pants and begged for mercy.
Yu Chen didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, so he took out the heart mirror and began to ask.
In less than a quarter of an hour, I got the answer I wanted.
According to the young deacon, the golden locks on his body were not his own.
But when Yu Chen asked him how he got this golden lock, he said that it was given to him by Elder Zhou Zigong.
Yu Chen asked him again, where are the three brothers of the Zhou family working, and are they still alive now? But he bluntly said that he was only responsible for recruiting workers at the beginning, and he really didn't know where the specific people who recruited had gone and what they were doing.
Later, the young deacon revealed another piece of news.
Zhou Zigong, one of the elders of the Fuding Chamber of Commerce, was personally responsible for this work, and he should know the situation.
Under the mirror of conscience, Yu Chen was sure that the young deacon did not lie, nor did he do anything hurtful, but was just an ordinary worker.
And under the eyes of the sky, Yu Chen didn't see the murderous blood on his head, so he slapped people and threw them on the bed and left.
After walking out of the house, Yu Chen found a tea and wine shop, drank a cup of tea, and then went to the Zhou Mansion in Fuze City without stopping.
According to the news that the young deacon said under the mirror of inquiry, Zhou Zigong, one of the veterans of the Fuding Chamber of Commerce, is over half a hundred years old, old and strong, vigorous and resolute, cruel and iron-blooded, and there are few people in the entire Fuding Chamber of Commerce who can face him head-on.
I heard that he used to be a gangster, and only after he got married did he join the Fuding Chamber of Commerce, and slowly laundered the money in his hand.
And he was responsible for the large-scale recruitment last year.
At the same time, Yu Chen remembered clearly that this person was also Zhou Xuyang's father.
Half an hour later, Fuze City, Zhou Mansion.
The two guards leaned against the goalpost, yawning and drowsy.
But suddenly, one of them seemed to catch a glimpse of a shadow flashing by.
But when he looked closely, there was nothing.
I only sighed that I was too tired and hallucinated.
I didn't feel at ease.
But what he didn't know was that in that moment of trance, someone had already entered the huge Zhou Mansion.
Inside the courtyard wall, the grass and trees are flourishing, the rockery is lined up, there are a few ponds, and there are a number of swimming fish.
There are also several pavilions, which are antique, elegant and quiet.
- I would enjoy it.
Yu Chen sighed and opened the eye of heaven.
I saw a brilliant blood qi hovering on the roof of a certain room.
Yu Chen followed the direction of the blood, jumped on the roof, uncovered the roof tiles, and looked inside.
But when the lights were bright, a sturdy old man was crouching in front of the desk, holding a stack of files in his hand, sometimes frowning, sometimes sighing.
The old man had gray hair, and he was not angry and arrogant, like a tiger who was pretending to sleep.
Between the eyebrows, there are seven or eight points similar to Zhou Xuyang, who trampled on a horse to death at the beginning.
- That's it.
At the same time, Zhou Zigong was unaware of the movement on the roof.
Just looked at the file in his hand and frowned.
At the beginning, after his son died, Zhou Zigong was grief-stricken and devoted himself to the care of the Chamber of Commerce.
It seems that only the endless work can paralyze him.
At this moment, a man who looked like a guard pushed the door in, whispered a few words, left a letter, and left.
Zhou Zigong opened the letter and looked at it, his brows furrowed even more!
"Finished at the end of the month? It's a dream! ”
But he can only say this by himself.
In the face of the mysterious and terrifying president, Zhou Zigong didn't dare to be a little disrespectful!
- He'd seen it with his own eyes, the Leader's terrible methods.
Even Zhou Zigong, who claimed to be a former underworld boss, felt his scalp tingle!
"Phew!"
Zhou Zigong took a sip, and then said to himself, "To put it bluntly, it's all to blame for the three bastards of the Zhou family!" All those coolies died! There are far from enough people! Otherwise, it would have been completed long ago! ”
But just when he had nowhere to vent, a hoarse voice suddenly sounded from behind.
"Elder Zhou, you are angry, don't be impatient."
At that moment, Zhou Zigong was full of excitement!
