Volume 53 Investigation

"Monster hunting?" all three of them were stunned for a moment.

"The little old man's family is doing silk business, has always been honest and kind, good quality and low price, so the business is okay, but just three months ago, when the morning was ready to open the door to do business, but found that the store door was broken a big hole at some point, and immediately frightened the little old man, and hurriedly ran into the store to investigate, but found that most of the things in the store are still there, just a few less silk, originally thought it was a thief who was not greedy, although it was painful, but there was nothing to be done, I had to keep more snacks and change the door to a stronger one, but a few days later, the same thing happened again, the door was broken again, and only a few pieces of silk were lost, this time the little old man was angry, and simply replaced a thick iron door, originally thought that this would be at ease, but a few days later, the iron door was broken again, but still only a few silks were lost!" Liu Pingfeng wiped his tears and said.

"Shopkeeper Liu, you better get up and talk!" Seeing that Liu Pingfeng was still kneeling on the ground, Ming Xuan helped him up.

"What's next?" Chen Yiling listened with interest.

"Since there is no way to change the iron door, the little old man had to change the method, let the family live directly in the store at night, but this still can't stop the loss of things, after asking the next person about the situation, he also knows nothing, said that it was originally guarded well, suddenly fell asleep, woke up in the store is already like that, the next person said that the little old man naturally did not believe, decided to keep vigil in person, because of the mind of the goods, the little old man really played up the spirit of twelve points to guard, but suddenly, the little old man also fell asleep somehow, and when he woke up, the store lost somethingAt this time, the little old man was also afraid, and all kinds of rumors began to rise in the city, saying that the little old man was punished by God for being rich and unkind, saying that the little old man had offended the gods and wanted to punish me, all kinds of rumors were not stopped, and the store also plummeted, and the door was full of birds, and it was impossible to make ends meet, but the situation of losing things still happened in a few days!" Speaking of this, Liu Pingfeng had a sad face.

"A few horses of silk are not worth a few dollars, and Xiao Lao'er can afford to pay for it, but if such rumors continue to spread, Xiao Lao'er will not be able to do business at all! A family of dozens of people is only afraid that they will drink the northwest wind! In order to find out the truth and clarify the rumors, Xiao Lao'er tried all methods, and asked Taoist priests to exorcise ghosts, worship gods, and worship ancestors. The temple offers incense, I tried everything I could, but it didn't work at all, no matter what I did, what kind of door I changed, every few days, the door was broken, and I had to throw a few pieces of silk, and other things would not move no matter how valuable they were, and things only happened at night, and there was nothing at all during the day, except for monsters, the little old man really couldn't think of anything else. Such a strange thing made Liu Pingfeng have to believe that it was a monster who was making trouble.

"Maybe it's the special fetish of a certain geek, right?" Ou Zhiyang said in thought, there are also a lot of weirdos in the rivers and lakes.

"This little old man also thought about it, so he invited He Kui and them to come back to the hospital, but the result was the same as what happened to the little old man, the day before yesterday, the little old man spent a lot of money to Feiyun Village to invite Guo Long and Guo Hu back, it was the two just now, but they ...... "I won't say much about the next thing, as soon as Guo Long and Guo Hu died, Liu Pingfeng's sustenance was gone, and his heart was naturally like ashes, but obviously Mingxuan's three people cultivated higher, and they were more able to help him, he naturally rekindled hope, and how could he let such a good opportunity slip away, so there was the previous scene."

"That's funny!" "It's hard to explain how many things are stolen without stealing silk, and only a few horses, every few days apart, and only at night, in exactly the same way."

"Little Lao'er really has no choice, it just so happens that the three young heroes are passing by, so that the little old man can rekindle hope, and I hope that the three young heroes can ignore the past suspicions, take a righteous shot, and the little old man's family will be in the water and fire!" After speaking, Liu Pingfeng knelt down again.

"It's a strange thing, so let's go to your store and see the situation first!"

"Okay, good, little old man will lead the way immediately!" Seeing that the three of them were willing to help, Liu Pingfeng was suddenly overjoyed, and hurriedly called He Kui and the others to lead the way.

Seeing that Mingxuan and the three of them came on foot, Liu Pingfeng hurriedly gave up his carriage and led the way in front, but after all, he was old, and his body was fat, which was not conducive to traveling, the three of them did not take the carriage, but divided a few horses from He Kui's hands, Liu Pingfeng sat in the carriage to lead the way, although Guo Long and Guo Hu had only been here for two days, but He Kui and others were obviously angry with them, just now they saw that Mingxuan punished them, and immediately had a good impression of Mingxuan and the three of them, and they also seemed very respectful, with Ou Zhiyang, the two sides quickly became acquainted。

"Brother He, looking at your horizontal practice of kung fu, it seems a bit like the golden bell jar of the Great Zen Temple. Ou Zhiyang looked at He Kui carefully and said, and their group is like this, although Ou Zhiyang respects the Buddhists, he still knows better.

"Ou Shaoxia is high-minded! It is the golden bell jar of the Great Chan Temple that is being practiced!" I didn't expect their martial arts to be so strong, their vision is so accurate, and they are well-informed, He Kui suddenly admired.

"Aren't all monks in the Great Zen Temple? How can you ......?" Chen Yiling wanted to say but stopped.

"Chen Nuxia doesn't know, we are not the official disciples of the Great Zen Temple, but live near the Great Zen Temple, because our family is poor, and when we were young, we were weak and sick, the monks of the Great Zen Temple saw that we were pitiful, so they sent us some rice noodles every month, and also asked us to learn the golden bell jar to strengthen the body, who knew that we practiced for thirty or forty years, and practiced and became what it is now. The golden bell jar is also a set of kung fu to strengthen the body, similar to the "mud fist" of Qingyangmen.

"It's quite far from the Great Zen Temple, so why are you running to the shopkeeper to do things?" Chen Yiling asked curiously.

"Relying on the gift of the Great Zen Temple, we finally grew up, and naturally we were embarrassed to continue like this, in order to make a living, we had to leave our hometown to do something to earn some money, and then we came here by chance. "Poor children are in charge of the family early, and they can only do this in order to live.

"It's all forced by life!" Ming Xuan said with emotion, Ou Zhiyang and Chen Yiling are both rich and noble children, so naturally they can't understand the hardships and hardships involved, but Ming Xuan empathizes.

"By the way, Brother He, what do you think about the theft of silk?" He Kui is also one of the parties involved, and from the perspective of a martial artist, it should feel different.

"I'm not afraid of the three jokes, we also feel inexplicable, no clue, Master Liu hired us with a high salary, and our seven brothers naturally have to repay him well, so they all have a twelve-point spirit during the vigil, and they also supervise each other, although it is not foolproof, but they will not fall asleep anyway, but the strange thing happened like this, our seven brothers still fell asleep for no reason, and they fell asleep at the same time, and after waking up the next day, they had no impression of what happened, it was really weirdHe Kui has also been puzzled.

"When did this happen?" Ming Xuan asked after pondering.

"It's after the ugly time, because we heard the husband beating the watch before. He Kui remembers the time clearly.

"Could it be that someone drugged you?" With the example of Guo Long and Guo Hu in front, Ming Xuan couldn't help but think about it.

"There was also such a suspicion in the next place, but the doors and windows of the store were closed, and we never went out since the moment the door closed, and even the Gong Gong we solved it in the store, there is really no possibility of drugged, if it is drugged in advance, it can't be done that seven people faint at the same time. He Kui obviously considered this matter, the physique between people is different, even if they are all poisoned, the attack will be fast and slow, and it is difficult to achieve the same attack.

As soon as He Kui said this, the three of them had no clue, and it seemed that they could only judge after arriving at the scene.

Liu Pingfeng's silk shop was not far from the cottage, and the conversation was there, and everyone walked into the store without saying a word.

Liu Pingfeng is also a wealthy merchant in Xinning City, the façade of the silk shop is very large, there are hundreds of silks in it, all kinds of styles are available, and the decoration is relatively gorgeous, but the door in this store is cast of fine iron, although it is strong and abnormal, but it does not match this gorgeous store at all, and the hinge is new, without any wear, it is obviously just installed.

"There are so many cloths in this store, how do you know if it's lost?" asked Chen Yiling, puzzled.

"The woman doesn't know, although there are many fabrics in this store, they are all classified in an orderly manner, and there is a detailed registration of every day's entry and exit, and there is no mistake. This is the usual way of bookkeeping for businessmen, but it is normal for Chen Yiling not to understand.

"In addition to the broken door and the stolen cloth, are there any other abnormalities in the store?" After carefully inspecting the surroundings, Ming Xuan found nothing.

"Other than that, there are no other anomalies. Liu Pingfeng thought for a while and said.

"Three young heroes, I will build yì you to take a look at the broken gate before, maybe you will gain something. He Kuiti said, looking like he wanted to speak and stopped.

He Kui's mention was naturally agreed by the three of them, although the incident had only happened for three months, but it had damaged a lot of gates, there were twenty or thirty gates, which was also a lot of expenses, which made Liu Pingfeng feel distressed, except for the first few doors that were damaged by him as firewood, the other doors were saved by him, after all, such a large piece of fine iron is not easy to deal with.

The broken gate was abandoned in the firewood room at will, placed horizontally and vertically, and looked relatively new, but there was a big hole in the door, which was enough to accommodate an adult through guò, because the gate was a double-leaf door, so every time the broken side was only removed, and then the other side was replaced, so the firewood room was only a half-leaf door.

Ming Xuan looked carefully at these broken gates, trying to find some clues, although the gates were heavy, they were still difficult for him.

"Hmm, this is!" Ming Xuan suddenly frowned, his eyes full of shock.

The edge of the hole in each door actually has neat tooth marks, and this hole has obviously been gnawed out!
