Chapter 2 The Big Deal
Mei Daochang, your dishes are ready, please use them slowly!"
"Daojia, eat, eat well to have strength, and work well tomorrow!" Mei Daojia glanced at Mei Zhengdao, who was looking at him with a kind face, and said in his heart: "I really treat me as a coolie, fat man, I am a great god of crossing!"
Thinking about it, don't get along with your stomach, Mei Daojia picked up a bowl of rice, sandwiched a chopstick dish, and buried her head in white rice.
Mei Zhengdao picked up a piece of beef and put it in his mouth, chewed it slowly, picked up the bull's-eye cup, drank the wine in the cup, and savored it carefully with squinted eyes.
"How about it, big brother, have you decided? This is a big deal, although it is a little more dangerous, but it has been done, and the money earned is enough for us to last for a while. A voice came from the table next to him.
Mei Daojia, who was chopping rice, stopped her chopsticks, approached Mei Zhengdao mysteriously without squinting, and whispered expressionlessly next to him: "Master, big deal!"
Mei Zhengdao signaled Mei Daojia not to speak, turned his head slightly and glanced at it with his spare eyes, it turned out to be Dangyang Sanxiong Wu Yuanding, Huang Chengfeng, Wu Yuanhao;
At the next table, Dangyang Sanxiong was drinking spirits with two side dishes, and was discussing something loudly, as if this business was above board and did not shy away from it.
Wu Yuanding picked up the big bowl and drank it all, wiped the corners of his mouth casually, and said: "The reward is a lot, but it also has to be a life flower." Zuofu's ghostly ghost is famous, in the past three months, how many heroes have thrown their lives inside. “
After a pause, he glanced at the faces of the two sworn brothers, and then said, "Of course, it should be okay for us to deal with one hundred and eighty people, but to deal with these invisible and untouchable ghosts, isn't that fat meat sent to other people's mouths?"
Wu Yuanhao looked at the boss with the intention of prevaricating, and anxiously glanced at the second brother Huang Chengfeng, and was about to speak.
Huang Chengfeng waved his hand to signal him not to worry, and explained to Wu Yuanding.
"The Zuofu ghost is indeed powerful, but this time the Zuofu offered a heavy reward, and invited the immortal cultivation disciples from the Immortal Cultivation Alliance as the main force, supplemented by us people from the rivers and lakes as help, but if you can hit it with one blow. “
"The people of Zuofu said that no matter whether they can exorcise ghosts or not, as long as they participate in this operation, they can get 1,000 taels of silver. The main owner who kills the ghost can also get 20,000 taels of silver, and those who participate can get another 1,000 taels of silver. “
"Boss, the three of us are going to beat the side drums, cheer and coax, let the immortal disciples do the big thing of subduing demons and eliminating demons, it's done, two thousand taels per person, no, we don't still have one thousand taels per person, and then we don't find some way to make money, we will sit and eat the mountain, and we are ready to become the three beggars of Dangyang!"
Wu Yuanding stared at the wine bowl in front of him silently, his fingers lightly tapped on the tabletop, and he was calculating the pros and cons in his heart.
"Zuofu, master, isn't this your strong point? You can get all the coffins back in one go! We don't have to go to the countryside every day to earn one, two, or three points!"
Mei Daojia lowered her voice and jokingly interjected, but Mei Zhengdao glared at him angrily and ignored him.
Hearing what Dangyang Sanxiong said, Mei Zhengdao understood; Zuofu is a well-known nouveau riche in Dangyang City, which started by gambling and lending usury, and half of the casinos in the city are owned by Zuofu, and Zuofu also has the title of Dangyang Zuo Bancheng.
Money can be channeled, and relying on the dredging of money, local officials will turn a blind eye to Zuofu's actions in Dangyang City.
Money can also be ruined, and the Zuo family is powerful in Dangyang City, which makes people angry and resentful, but the common people dare to be angry and dare not speak when they see that the Zuo family is rich and powerful, and they have the protection of the government.
Three months ago, Zuo Fugui, the second son of Zuofu, met a flower-like vegetable girl when he was shopping, and he was shocked at that time, and forced the vegetable girl into the house, preparing to do good things at night with candles in the cave room.
Who knew that the girl had a strong temperament and committed suicide that night, Zuo Fugui looked at the meat in his mouth and flew again, and he was probably confused, thinking that even if he couldn't get you, he would want you to be the ghost of the Zuo family when he died. Then he ordered his subordinates to throw the girl into the dry well of the other courtyard, and sealed the well with stones.
As the saying goes, good is not bad, and it really fulfilled the wish of the second son of Zuo, and on the seventh day after the girl committed suicide, strange things began to happen in Zuofu.
At first, it was some vegetables left in the kitchen for the next day's breakfast, and I don't know who placed them on the grass on both sides of the road in Zuofu.
Zuofu is a big family, and things have always been done in an orderly manner, with strict rules, and the fruits and vegetables used for cooking are discarded on the grass in the house at will.
Master Zuo was furious at that time, and ordered the housekeeper to investigate the matter strictly, and the housekeeper brought in the subordinate and slowly investigated, but no one admitted that he had done it, and the housekeeper could not find evidence, and there was nothing he could do, so he could only put down the cruel words, and if such a thing happened again, he would be severely punished.
That night, the housekeeper instructed the nursing home who patrolled the vigil to strictly check and pay attention to any abnormalities, and secretly arranged two henchmen to keep an eye on the kitchen area to see who was so bold and dared to make trouble in Zuofu.
Guarding in horror all night, nothing strange happened, just when Zuofu breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this matter had passed, a family member ran to report in a panic: "Dead man, dead man, Tianding, and Tianfu are dead!"
Tianding, Tianfu is the henchman who arranged the housekeeper to keep an eye on the kitchen area, at this time he was lying outside the kitchen door, with his eyes open, his face was pale, with a frightened expression, holding a large number of vegetables such as green vegetables and radishes in his arms, and he had no breath.
The Zuo family was so frightened that they were at a loss, and Master Zuo hurriedly ordered people to collect the corpse and strictly forbid his subordinates to discuss the matter.
The second son of the Zuo family was greedy for beauty and killed an innocent vegetable girl, and now people have turned into ghosts and come back to ask for their lives, which is no longer something that can be solved by the official, and the old man Zuo instructed the housekeeper to quietly find an exorcist to solve this matter.
It may be that the ghosts are too powerful, or the ability of the people invited is too poor, whether it is a Taoist priest or a martial arts master on the rivers and lakes, no one can survive, let alone exorcise ghosts.
The Zuo family had no choice, they thought of moving, who knew that as soon as they got out of the gate, Zuo's second son's eyes widened, he pinched his neck with his hand, foamed at the mouth and stretched out his tongue and fell to the ground convulsions, the people of Zuofu hurriedly carried him back to the house, and as soon as he was carried home, he immediately returned to normal again.
The Zuo family may have done too many bad things, the eldest son died early, and only the second child was left, and the ghost pinched the key point of the Zuo family, forcing the Zuo family not to move, trapping them in the Zuo Mansion, and slowly torturing them. The people of Zuofu were miserable, so they promised a heavy reward and invited people from the rivers and lakes to exorcise evil spirits to solve this big problem.
Mei Zhengdao had known about this for a long time, but seeing that the masters invited by the Zuo family had become the souls of the ghosts, he was undoubtedly a fat sheep to be slaughtered with this half-hung evil spirit, so he didn't dare to act rashly.
Now listening to Dangyang Sanxiong say this, it seems that he can fish in the muddy waters peacefully and make a big profit, but he has just returned from the countryside, and the specific situation has not yet been figured out.
So Mei Zhengdao got up and walked to the table of Dangyang Sanxiong, arched his hand and said: "Three, polite, poor Dao's surname is Mei, his name is Zhengdao, just now I heard the three of them talking about the matter of Zuofu's powerful ghosts and trapping people, Poor Dao still has some experience in exorcism and exorcism, I don't know if I can let Poor Dao also listen to this?"
Wu Yuan was hesitant to think about whether to participate in the exorcism of ghosts in Zuofu, and after listening to Mei Zhengdao's words, he was a professional exorcist, thinking that someone handed a pillow as soon as he was sleepy, and he could refer to the opinion of this exorcist Taoist.
Immediately stood up and clenched his fists, and said with a smile: "Long admiration, long admiration, the Taoist chief has profound mana and extensive knowledge, if this matter is guided by the Taoist chief, it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort, and the hand will be captured! Please sit down, Xiao Er!"
Wu Yuanding politely beckoned Mei Zhengdao to sit down, and at the same time instructed the shopkeeper to add some more drinks and dishes.
Mei Daojia saw that the master was talking to Dangyang Sanxiong about Zuofu in the past, and hurriedly picked up some dishes in the bowl, stood behind Mei Zhengdao with the bowl, and listened to their discussions while eating.
Mei Zhengdao and Sanxiong drank a glass of wine, put down the glass and said: "I heard from the three of them, Zuofu paid a lot of money to invite immortal cultivators to deal with powerful ghosts, I don't know what sect this immortal cultivator comes from?"
Wu Yuanding said to Huang Chengfeng: "Second brother, tell Daoist Mei about the news you heard." “
Huang Chengfeng nodded and said, "Okay, the news from Zuofu is that the whole Zuofu is trapped in the mansion by that powerful ghost, tormented night and night, and can't run again, and it's miserable." “
"In desperation, I had to ask someone to spend a lot of money to invite a disciple of the fifth layer of qi refining from the alliance academy jointly organized by the Immortal Cultivation Sect to deal with the powerful ghosts, this disciple has a friendship with the eldest prince of Zuofu, and the immortal cultivators have a great demand for wealth, so they will take this single hanging red. “
Mei Zhengdao was a little surprised: "Isn't the eldest prince of Zuofu already dead? How can he have a friendship with an immortal cultivator?"
Huang Chengfeng said a little proudly: "I spent some silver taels to hear this news from my relatives in Zuofu. In the early years, Zuofu started by gambling and lending, and did countless evils, causing many people to be ruined and killed, and countless enemies. “
"Although Zuofu has accumulated a lot of people in the rivers and lakes for Zuofu to do the matter of guarding and protecting the family and the house, these people are just taking money to work, and there is no loyalty at all. “
"So Master Zuo spent money to send the eldest son of the Zuo family to the Alliance Academy to practice Taoism, even if he can't attain Taoism and ascend to immortals, and learn one or two spells, he can also protect his life in this secular world and protect the continuation of the family. “
"You can cultivate immortals by spending money, don't you need spiritual roots?" Mei Daojia heard that he could cultivate immortals by spending money, how could it be the same as Luxiang Vocational and Technical College, and the cultivation of immortals he saw in his book were fundamentally different things, so he interjected.
