In the sky, large dark clouds rushed over, quickly obscuring the sun, and the wind blew whirring, blowing the branches and leaves to shake incessantly. The birds are gone, the insects are gone, the sky and the earth are getting darker and darker, a heavy rain is about to appear, and the creatures are all panicking.

Zhang Yunyan was rushing to Yulongzhuang to visit Yunxia's sister, she was anxious, she didn't want to delay, and she had to rush home before the rain. However, there is still a long way to go in Yulongzhuang, and although she is as light as flying, there are no dark clouds that drift fast, and it is not easy to avoid this heavy rain.

As expected, Yunyan was rushing, and with the rumbling thunder, the raindrops the size of beans fell. She was a little flustered, and she also regretted that she was not reunited with her relatives at this time, so why rush to leave, she was really asking for her own hardship.

When she was anxious, she saw a house not far away, and immediately flew up and jumped over, avoiding it for a while. When she saw that the door was open, she hurried in to take shelter, but her clothes were not soaked.

She entered the house and looked around, only to realize that it was a small temple and incense.

The temple is small and houses a statue of Buddha. Yun Yan looked at it, she didn't know the god and Buddha, and shook her head gently.

Zhang Yunyan turned around and came to the door, looked out, was shocked, and felt lucky, if he was still on the road, it would be miserable.

Outside, thunder rolled, the wind howled, and the torrential rain fell like a torrent, and soon there was water on the ground. The raindrops have been connected and are constantly falling, stirring up countless splashes.

Yun Yan sighed silently, this rain is really heavy, thanks to the place to shelter from the rain, otherwise it would have been poured into a soup chicken in the blink of an eye.

She looked into the distance, and the sky and the earth were gray, with houses, trees, houses, mountains...... Everything has become blurry, and some have become invisible.

Suddenly, Zhang Yunyan was stunned for a moment, and it turned out that there was a voice. She listened carefully, and the voice was behind the Buddha statue.

I just listened, and one person said: "Brother, the matter has been done, it's time to cash in full, right?"

Another person responded: "No problem, I'll cash it out now, it's fifty taels, you can take it." ”

"Well, that's right, but for this matter, I'm frightened, restless, and tortured, it's not easy, I have to give a little more, right? I don't want more, let's give another five taels." ”

The man was a little dissatisfied, and said, "This kind of thing is extraordinary, of course it is not easy, if it is so easy to do, do I still need to pay for you? We have agreed in advance, and everything will be done according to the agreement." Whether you are frightened or frightened, or you have trouble sleeping and eating, it is all included in these fifty taels. ”

"Brother, you're too stingy, can't you reward me if I did such a big thing for you?"

"Alas, big brother, I'll tell you nothing, I took out all the money from the family, and borrowed some from others, so I can get enough fifty taels, how can I have any silver for you. ”

The man pursed his lips and snorted: "Don't cry poor, I don't know you yet, your family is not a mere fifty taels." Forget it, I don't want you to reward me, these days I run around, eat and drink, and hire a car to buy medicine, spending a few taels of silver. Not only am I tired, but I also spend more, so let's give some more, which can be regarded as a little compensation. ”

The other person sighed, a little helpless: "Okay, I'll give you two more taels to take advantage of you." ”

"Hmph, I made a loss-making deal, and it was you who got the cheapest, and it was a big bargain. Forget it, I don't care about you, if I do it again in the future

There is such a deal, just look for me, and I promise to do it to your satisfaction. ”

The man was dissatisfied again: "Big brother, don't curse me, this is not a good deal, and there will be no more in the future." ”

Zhang Yunyan was a little curious, what kind of deal is this, and she is so frightened that she will not be able to sleep and eat? This transaction can earn fifty taels of silver, which is indeed not ordinary, and it must be a big deal. What deal did the two of them have, and what did they do?

Yun Yan really wanted to go over and take a look, but she didn't want to alarm the two people, so as not to be suspicious.

In the hesitation, she still wanted to solve the mystery, so she came to the back of the Buddha statue to check, and sure enough, there were two people sitting on the ground, just as you and I were talking.

Among them, a man was in his thirties, with a large shoulder, a round waist, a full beard, and two large sparkling eyes.

The other man was quite different, thin and small, with a long face and no beard, and two small eyes that were struggling to open as if they hadn't woken up. However, those two eyes were very flexible, and they kept turning around, and the expression they showed was hard to peck at.

The two men were taken aback when they saw someone suddenly appear in front of them, still a young woman with a weapon, and showed nervous expressions.

The bearded man was wary and asked, "Who are you and what are you doing here?"

Zhang Yunyan replied while looking: "I passed by here, come in to take shelter from the rain." ”

The two people got up and looked at Yunyan, wanting to leave here, and then looked at the heavy rain outside, then frowned and stood helplessly. The two of them stopped talking, and from time to time they looked at the young woman who suddenly appeared, and became vigilant.

Zhang Yunyan didn't take the two of them to heart, and she was still a little puzzled by Fang Cai's words, and she couldn't help but be suspicious. What did the two of them do, and this transaction actually cost fifty taels of silver?

Yunyan couldn't guess clearly, and she couldn't ask, and even if she asked, she wouldn't tell her, so she no longer thought about these things that had nothing to do with her.

After a while, the two people realized that Zhang Yunyan had no bad intentions, and their nervous expressions relaxed, and they were chatting about the short things in the parents.

The thin man asked, "Big brother, where are you going?"

The bearded man replied: "Alas, I will go to Baohua Temple to offer incense, and worship the gods and Buddhas there, so as to bless me with peace and sound." I don't know that it is raining heavily, and it is a little inconvenient, so I can only talk about it tomorrow. ”

The thin man smiled and shook his head: "I can't imagine that the eldest brother is so religious, it's useless, why bother tossing." In these years, if you don't have the help of relatives and friends, you have to rely on money to do everything, otherwise you won't be able to achieve anything. As the saying goes, money can make ghosts grind, and it's true. Whether it is a rich and powerful person, a wicked person or a bandit, or those gods and devils, as long as they are bribed, anything can be done. ”

"Brother, what you said is not unreasonable, but it is not easy to buy them out, how much silver it will cost, and I can't afford it. ”

The thin man also sighed with emotion when he heard this: "Yes, if you want to buy off corrupt officials and bandits, the common people have no ability to go bankrupt, and this kind of power-for-money transaction is done by rich people." ”

"Brother still understands people, this road doesn't work, you can take another way. It's simple to burn incense and worship the Buddha, you don't need to spend so much silver, and it's very effective, you can't believe it. If you do......" He immediately stopped his words and looked at Zhang Yunyan.

Yunyan was watching the Buddha statue, and she was very emotional after listening to the conversation between the two, and what she said was true. It's all said that Ya

The door is open to the south, and there is no reason to come in, many places are like this, and the people have nowhere to apply for it.

The bearded man saw that Yunyan was looking at the Buddha statue, but he didn't pay attention to the two of them and ignored them anymore. He added: "Brother, you can't disbelieve, if you do a deal like this, you can't treat it as child's play, but you have to pray to the gods and Buddhas to bless you with peace and well." ”

"Hehe, go burn incense and worship the Buddha yourself, I don't believe it. In this life, I believe in money, and I only worship the God of Wealth. With that, he laughed.

The bearded man laughed too, then shook his head and stopped persuading.

The two of them were talking and laughing casually, and sometimes looked at Zhang Yunyan, and seemed a little uneasy.

Yunyan ignored them, still looking at the Buddha statue, guessing which god it was.

The thin man looked at the Buddha statue and said, "Big brother, why do you have to go near and far, you don't need to go to Baohua Temple, this is a small temple, there are ready-made Buddha statues, isn't it more convenient to worship here." ”

The bearded man shook his head and said, "This small temple is not good, the gods and Buddhas of Baohua Temple are only effective, and I have to go there to pray for help when I have a big event." This time was no exception, I had already prayed there beforehand, and I should have gone to pay my vows afterwards. ”

The rain outside had lightened, and the two men had fled in the rain.

Zhang Yunyan glanced at their backs, looked at the drizzle, and did not leave, wanting to wait for the rain to stop before leaving.

The dark clouds are drifting rapidly, the trees and flowers are swaying with the wind, the thin rain is gradually leaving, and the vast land has been baptized by the rain and shown vitality.

Zhang Yunyan left the small temple and hurried away again, breathing in the fresh air and feeling refreshed.

When she saw the tender green shoots, she remembered her childhood, when those buds that wanted to bloom were like her sister when she was a child, and she had warm family affection and love in her heart.

She was about to see Sister Yunxia, she was anxious and happy, and hummed a little song casually:

"The wind is light, the wind is light,

Don't let Bao'er wake up.

Please bring sweat,

Leave tenderness,

Babies have sweet dreams.

......”

Zhang Yunyan sang this children's song left by her mother, her heart was extremely warm, and she missed her father and mother endlessly.

Yunyan hummed while walking, and unconsciously came to a market town, and after inquiry, she learned that this place was called Luming Town. He wanted to buy some food to take home, and he patrolled the shops on both sides, occasionally going in to have a look.

After the heavy rains, the streets were waterlogged and muddy, and people were walking cautiously, coming and going, and they were still bustling.

When Zhang Yunyan came to the crossroads, she couldn't help but feel suspicious when she saw that there were many people surrounded by the roadside at the turn, and there were people from the government guarding there. She immediately walked over to see what was going on.

Yunyan looked at the plaque and realized that it was a restaurant. She looked into the hotel, which was large and had ten tables. Someone from the government is inspecting the house, and it seems that something is really wrong.

Zhang Yunyan asked the people around her to know that there were dead people here, and people from the government were inspecting the scene to find out the cause of death. She wanted to know more about it, but the onlookers couldn't understand, they were discussing, and they were suspicious.

At this moment, an official came out of the hotel, looking nearly forty years old, dignified, calm and capable, and upright.
