In this strange small town, he just got rid of the surveillance, and in the blink of an eye, he bumped into a person who was suspected of having a spell, and Li Changan had to have doubts.

Where is there such a coincidence?

But things in the world are not written without coincidence.

"Don't you tell me that your house lives here?"

When the Taoist priest sent Liu Weidong, the middle-aged man he had rescued earlier, to the downstairs of his house, he couldn't help but smile.

Unexpectedly, I went around and returned to the starting point. The two of them were at the barbecue stand where the orange cat had fallen from the sky before.

At present, the diners on the barbecue stall have changed a few times, but the quarrel upstairs has not subsided, but has become more and more intense. Listening to the gossiping and daily calls, it seems that there are a few more people who participated in this scolding battle, but helplessly, they are not the opponents of Zou who is paralyzed with one mouth.

No, an old man was.

The Taoist priest could hear the bellows-like inhalation in his chest downstairs, and the old man's voice trembled.

"Huh! You shrew! I can't tell you, you house Liu Weidong? Call him out, I'll tell him. ”

The woman laughed, snarled and proud.

"I know, maybe I'll die outside. What are you looking for him to do, and go to accompany him?"

"You, why are you so vicious?"

"I'm vicious? so many of you bullied me into being paralyzed, it's called vicious!"

Then, I listened to the sound of ping-pong, and Yuan Xiaochuan's angry scolding, and a series of deafening dog barks.

"Oops. ”

Liu Weidong slapped his thigh, didn't care about Li Changan, quickly thanked him, held on to the staircase railing, and limped upstairs.

As for Li Changan, he said in his heart: It's all here. So, he kept up slowly.

And it was at this moment, at the moment when both of them stepped on the corridor.

In the endless crowd on the street behind him, the owner of the barbecue stall, the diners in the rice noodle shop, and the lady walking the dog on the opposite street all kinds of people took out their mobile phones and silently aimed at the backs of the two.

Liu Weidong's house is on the fifth floor.

His legs and feet were inconvenient, so he hurriedly took the first step, but pulled behind Li Changan unhurriedly, but took the lead to go upstairs.

When he arrived at the ground, he saw an anti-theft door wide open at first glance, and a group of men, women, and children were blocking the door, but they didn't dare to take a step beyond the thunder pool, only pointing fingers and making noise at a distance of three or four steps.

When the Taoist priest got closer, he saw a woman lying in a wheelchair covered with a sheet inside the door.

Speaking of excitement, he waved his hands together, used them as the chamber of the gun, made the edge of the knife, and even poked and pointed, spraying out filthy words and machine guns one by one, and "hitting" the opponent with thick necks and red eyes.

Li Changan felt his scalp tingle and sweat on his forehead just by listening to the excitement.

But her opponents are "civilized" tightly, although they were so angry that one Buddha ascended to heaven and two Buddhas were born, but none of them broke into the door and reasoned with their fists. The reason for this is probably that a yellow dog that can't see any category, but is the size of an adult man, is squatting on the threshold and standing guard.

There is such a "door god", and there is some humble gentleman's style of "moving your mouth but not your hands" in this scene full of gunpowder.

As for Captain Yuan, he was still there, just sitting on the stairs above, smoking a cigarette and looking at the bottom with a sneer, seeing that Li Changan was coming, he only signaled for him to go up and watch the play with him.

"Aren't you leaving?"

Li Changan told the truth about what he met Liu Weidong.

At this time, Liu Weidong was late.

As soon as he came up, he planned to complete Yuan Xiaochuan's uncompetitive career persuasion. But unfortunately, this side hates the house and Wu, and the other side thinks that his arm is going out. A big man nodded and shuffled, dragging a lame leg around like a ball of spit on both sides. But neither the indignant neighbor nor the sharp-tongued wife stopped to ask where the wound on his face came from.

Only the big yellow dog wagged his tail and affectionately added to the bruises on his face.

All in all, Liu Weidong's efforts were in vain, but he became a sandwich bag.

A man with glasses pointed at his nose and scolded: "Does your Liu family have a tutor, and you don't have any public morality!"

"No, no, my mother-in-law has been in her mood lately"

Liu Weidong just explained in a low voice, but Zou paralysis behind him responded with a sneer at the first time.

"Morality? Some people are embarrassed to talk about morality?"

"Which do you say?"

"I'm talking about you. ”

"What do you say about me?"

"I said you secretly threw a cigarette butt on my balcony the other day. ”

"You fart. ”

probably felt that he had finally caught the other party's flaws, and the man with glasses snorted proudly.

"Lao Tzu is a non-smoker, and secondly, he was on a business trip last week, and he only returned to the house today, how could he throw a cigarette butt at the balcony of your house a few days ago. ”

As soon as these words came out, the noise in the field suddenly stopped.

"High paraplegia?"

On the stairs, Li Changan, who had watched the play for a long time, asked Yuan Xiaochuan in a low voice. He found that this Zou was paralyzed from beginning to end, with only one head and two arms moving.

Yuan Xiaochuan nodded.

"Below the chest. ”

As soon as the words fell, Zou was paralyzed and suddenly laughed insolently while patting the wheelchair.

The eyed man doesn't feel good.

"What are you laughing at?"

"What am I laughing at?"

She wiped away her tears.

"Then I'll have to ask your wife. ”

The bespectacled boy can't get up again.

An aunt next to her hurriedly took over the battle, but she changed her strategy and attacked in a roundabout way to set up the facts and reason.

She caught Liu Weidong.

"Xiao Liu, we have to be reasonable about this matter. Zou Ping threw the cat downstairs, we persuaded her twice, and she scolded us for no reason. Hey, don't say it, even if our neighbors don't look up and look down to see your eyes, but other passers-by don't provoke you, why do you throw the cat down and smash the other?"

Liu Weidong was so anxious that he was sweating all over, and before he could say anything, his wife behind him screamed again.

"What if you hit it?"

She seemed a little hysterical.

"They are all accomplices! lackeys! Accomplices! Stuncing one to death counts as one, it's a big deal that I will be paralyzed and pay for your life, Lao Tzu earned it!"

This scolding war is over after all.

It's not that Liu Weidong's words and achievements have been achieved, but purely because the two sides are tired of scolding, and they will fight again in the future.

Both sides went home, but Yuan Xiaochuan beckoned the Taoist priest and entered Liu Weidong's house.

The layout of his home is quite old-fashioned, some crowded and cramped and full of the taste of life, ordinary, the only feature is that there are many pet cages in the living room, and as soon as a few people enter the door, there is a group of cats and dogs surrounding them.

And Liu Weidong himself, like a non-stop spinning top, beckoned the guests to sit down, pushed Zou Ping into the bedroom over there, and went into the kitchen again in a blink of an eye.

But just put on an apron.

Zou Ping came to say:

"What are you going to do?"

"I'll give you a bowl of noodles. ”

"Not hungry. You come over to me first. ”

He lowered his eyebrows in response and trotted to the bedroom door.

"Are you stupid?"

Zou Ping opened her mouth again.

"Bring up the medicinal wine. ”

"Hey!"

He replied happily and called, "Huang'er, medicinal wine." ”

"Wang. ”

The big yellow dog barked, turned his head and came to the master's side with a bottle of bone-setting medicine, and then

"Lang Kai is old again, doesn't he tell you to be careful?"

"Pay attention next time, pay attention next time. ”

"Shhh ”

"Don't move. ”

This side of the living room.

Yuan Xiaochuan turned out the tea leaves, teacups, melon seeds and peanuts familiarly, brought a kettle from the kitchen, and brewed two cups of hot tea by himself.

"You're welcome. ”

"What's the politeness? I've been in Qishui for four or five months, and the place where I've spent the longest time is a rented house, a traffic police brigade, and a house. ”

Li Changan took the teacup, and the tea was a little hot when the fragrance was thorough.

"Say. ”

He put the teacup down.

"Is it related to this family that you called me to help?"

"It's related, but not quite. ”

Yuan Xiaochuan, the smoker, lit a cigarette again, and sipped hot tea while smoking.

"It was more than four months ago, on my first night at work in Qishui, and I rode around to familiarize myself with the road conditions. Unexpectedly, I bumped into my first case on the spot. A Lamborghini drunk drag racing car crashed over a family of three walking on the side of the road. ”

"A family of three?"

"A couple, and a five-month-old fetus in the woman's belly. Yuan Xiaochuan continued, "I was the first to arrive, and I called an ambulance at that time, after rescue, the man was better, one leg was lame, and the next day he woke up and the woman was much more serious, although he was out of danger of life, but the baby was gone, he was a high paraplegia, and he was in a coma." ”

"As for the driver who caused the accident, the turtle son didn't have any trouble, he just fell asleep on the airbag, and put it back that night, and the next day someone went to the man to ask for privacy. ”

"Can this situation be private?"

Yuan Xiaochuan sneered, but continued:

"First, the party responsible for the accident gave a lot of money, and secondly, this man's personality is soft, and his relatives and friends are persuading him, so he agreed to be private. But by this time the woman woke up. ”

"The baby has a miscarriage, she is a high paraplegic, and the woman's personality is fierce, even if she doesn't want money, she is determined to let the perpetrator go to jail. ”

"It should. ”

"But when I was preparing to prosecute, I found out that the perpetrator had changed a person, the records of the file had changed, and all the key evidence, including the surveillance video, was gone. ”

Yuan Xiaochuan took a big breath and pressed the cigarette butt into the ashtray hard, word by word.

"It's not right under my nose. ”

"I looked for the people below, but I didn't admit that I found the people above, and I didn't care, and advised me not to meddle in my affairs. ”

"Sounds like this guy is full of energy. ”

"Of course there is energy, this person's name is Hong Daihai, the chairman of the Hongmao Group. ”

"The chairman is still drunk and racing?"

"The chairman can't drag racing? Ma Xiaoyun also makes movies, Li Zongrui is still a fan of women, and if you have money, you are not a scumbag?"

"You know my temper, and I can't see this kind of thing, so I try my best to find out the details of this person. ”

"How?"

"This Hong Daihai is a native of Qishui, regarded as the book of the village, has been a representative of the people, and has been elected as an outstanding entrepreneur. Judging from the archives alone, he is a typical self-made businessman from the bottom. In the early days, he relied on collecting river sand, stones, and contracting land to get start-up capital, and later followed the demonic wind of the prosperity of the health care product market, and started this red grass medicinal wine, and since then he has made a fortune and become the richest man in the province. Don't look outside, this Hong Daihai only buys wine, but in Qishui, the companies under his name are involved in real estate, education, transportation, security, and even food, vegetables, takeaways, Internet cafes, and all walks of life. ”

"Sounds like a landlord. ”

"yes. But the strange thing is that this snake has never bitten anyone on the file. All the businesses under his name, including those that made a fortune in the early days, did not get any bad information. ”

At this point, he changed his mind.

"You and I grew up in the country. The situation in the countryside is all too clear. It can be said that the temple is a small demon and the wind is big, and the pool is shallow and the king is eight. In the countryside, especially more than ten years ago, who made a fortune from the bottom, did not have a little feces and urine on his buttocks. ”

"This Hong Daihai is too clean. ”

He lit another cigarette.

"I don't believe in this evil, I can't find it openly, I will check it secretly. But I don't know the place well, so I have to go to the locals who are willing to help me."

Li Changan pointed to the bedroom.

"The two of them?"

"Yes. ”

"Liu Weidong and Zou Ping are both locals, and through them I know some of the glorious deeds of Hong Daihai and his men. It's unbelievable, gathering crowds to fight, extortion, bullying and dominating the market, and manipulating elections, and they are all like a bunch of bandits and bullies!"

"He, the chairman of a group and the richest man in the province, also earns this little money?"

"Who knows him? It may be that the shit on the butt of the wealthy man in his early years cannot be wiped clean, and it is more likely that the thief is difficult to change. ”

Li Changan was still a little puzzled.

"That's not right. It stands to reason that such an arrogant person, even if the official is not taken care of, why hasn't Lang Kai reported any news from the people?"

Li Chang'an's hometown is not far from Qishui, but this Hongmao Group, except for the medicinal wine itself, does not have many negative rumors.

In this regard, Yuan Xiaochuan did not answer positively, but just said something that seemed to be unrelated.

"You take the car to the station to pass by a bridge, called Hongmao Bridge, you get off, the square next to the station, called Hongmao Square, you look up in a random place in the city, the tallest building you see, called Hongmao Building, including everyone you meet on the street, nine out of ten have relatives who are employees of Hongmao Group, even if you go out of the city, most of the surrounding fields are Hongmao medicinal herb growers. ”

Yuan Xiaochuan pointed to his feet.

"This place is called Red Grass. ”

The Taoist priest nodded thoughtfully and motioned for Yuan Xiaochuan to continue, he took over the words of the previous paragraph and said:

"I've also been in contact with people from various sources, some of whom are engaged in conflicts of interest, and some of whom are actually victims. But whenever I contact this part of the people, within a few days, they suddenly change their words, some are resolute, and even lose contact for several days, and then they either move, or they change their words in the same way. Until a few days ago, I found a person named Bao Zhiyun, who was also suddenly lost for a few days, waiting for him to reappear."

"Did he change his tune?"

"He didn't change his mind, but he became mentally ill. ”

Yuan Xiaochuan finished smoking another cigarette and pressed the butt of the cigarette into the ashtray.

"I called you to come over and help this time, because I couldn't do it alone. Two, I feel like I'm being watched!"

When Li Changan heard this, he smiled and shook his head.

"Then have you ever thought that since the two of us met today, because of you, I have also been watched?"

Hearing this, Yuan Xiaochuan was stunned for a while, and his face became more and more ugly.

"I'm afraid I don't have to be so powerful. ”

Li Changan spread his hands.

"Which one knows?"

He scratched his head and said hesitantly:

"Orn"

"Just kidding, what kind of age are they, it's the underworld, and it's not a spy, where is it so powerful?!"

The Taoist priest grinned.

"I've got you covered!"

The living room of Liu Weidong's home.

Li Changan looked at a shrine in the corner, which enshrined a statue of a god, with a very strange appearance, like a person but not a person, like a cat but not a cat, like a dog but not a dog, the color is old, but the expression is vivid.

Just now, Yuan Xiaochuan had something urgent to leave, leaving only Li Changan with some doubts to ask Liu Weidong. But the family is happy in the bedroom. The Taoist priest was so bored that he had to look around, but unfortunately in the corner of the living room, he found such a shrine. I didn't think about it, but I saw something strange at a glance, this statue is not an ordinary clay wooden tire, it seems to be here

"This is Grandma Wuzhu. ”

I don't know when, Liu Weidong finally came out of the bedroom and introduced Li Changan to the side.

"This is the patriarch of our line of worship. ”

"Patriarch?"

The gods of the Chinese folk are like carp crossing the river, and Li Changan is really clumsy.

Liu Weidong smiled, put a stick of incense on the shrine, and then said:

"I'm in the pet business, but I'm different from most of my peers, I'm an ancestral craft, and the trained cats and dogs are well-known and much smarter than ordinary pets, all thanks to the blessing of the ancestors. ”

Maybe there are too many people who question it on weekdays, and before Li Changan could express his position, Liu Weidong rushed to say:

"Don't believe it. ”

"Huang'er. ”

He called, and the big yellow dog ran to him with his tail wagged.

"Stand upright. ”

The big yellow dog man stood up and put one of his front paws on his head.

"Shake hands. ”

The big yellow dog "walked" over and handed a paw to Li Changan. The Taoist priest smiled and shook its hand.

It's all a normal action, nothing to praise, but then, it's a little bit interesting.

Liu Weidong lay down on the sofa.

"A bit bored and wanted to watch TV. ”

The big yellow dog actually took out the remote control and turned on the TV.

"I'm a little thirsty. ”

The big yellow dog picked up the kettle again and poured a cup of hot water.

"My shoulders are a little sore. ”

The big yellow dog barked, jumped on the sofa, and slammed Liu Weidong's shoulders with his front legs.

"How?"

Liu Weidong smiled proudly at Li Changan, this man who had only promised all day actually had some confidence at this moment.

But there was something inexplicable in Li Changan's eyes. What kind of ancestral craft is this, when Liu Weidong and the big yellow dog interacted, Li Changan clearly heard that the smell of the spell on Liu Weidong's body became more and more obvious.

But looking at Liu Weidong's calm and non-fake demeanor, Li Changan's hesitation about him has been eliminated a lot.

The Taoist priest wondered if it would be such a situation: in today's depleted spiritual energy, many spells and magical powers are useless. "Clairvoyance" is also a little better eye, "downwind ear" is also a little more ear, and spells that can manipulate animals may only make pets more well-behaved.

In this way, there must be people who have spells and don't know it.

Li Changan casually echoed a few words, still to be asked.

But suddenly, there was a "knock" upstairs.

Followed by.

"Are you dead in the house?

Liu Weidong's confident smile suddenly changed back to a bitter gourd face.

Get!

Li Changan got up.

It's time to say goodbye and go back and wash your ears.
