Chapter 17 Xiangshi, Magic

Li Gongfu was a little confused when he heard this, so he asked the rest of the Qian family to retreat for the time being, and then let the little guy speak slowly. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

There were fewer people around, and the little guy was not as nervous as before, so he recounted in detail what he knew.

It turned out that three days ago, this little guy had followed Qian Gui out to run errands. When the two of them reached West Street, they were stopped by a gentleman who was setting up a stall on the side of the road. That Xiangshi claimed to be surnamed Ji Ming'an, a disciple of the King of Maoshan Tianshi, and was the best at judging people's good fortune and misfortune in his life. He also said that he saw the dark clouds of Qian Gui from afar, and the sign of the Lord's great evil, and when he looked closely, he concluded that he would have a bloody disaster and a worry about his life within three days. In the end, he told Qian Gui that if he was willing to give out ten taels of silver, he was willing to consume his own longevity and dispel the evil for Qian Gui.

Qian Gui was so dignified how could he believe such nonsense, and he was stingy by nature and hard to give up money, so he scolded Na Ji'an and walked away.

Although the people around who watched the excitement felt that the Xiangshi was talking about it, and they persuaded Qian Gui to spend money to eliminate the disaster, Qian Gui still disdained it.

Speaking of this, the little guy said: "Now that the words of the scholar have been fulfilled, it can be seen that he really has a way and is not a person who deceives the world and steals his name." If Li Zhutou wants to know who the murderer is, why not go to the Xiangshi and ask him for a divination to find out. ”

Li Gongfu groaned a little after hearing this, first ordered the little servant to retreat, and then summoned two messengers, and instructed them to take the minister Ji'an back to the yamen for questioning, and then led the servant and the other two servants to return to the yamen first to report the case to the county order.

After going to the Yamen to meet Yang Xingzhi, Li Gongfu and Qi Zuo successively stated the situation obtained from the investigation of the scene.

Yang Xingzhi said with a sad face: "Gongfu, according to what you said, this is actually a 'closed room murder case'?"

Li Gongfu nodded and said, "Back to my lordship, I can confirm that before I waited to enter, the room where the deceased was located was indeed sealed, and there was no trace of others entering or leaving." ”

"According to what you said, is it ......" Yang Xingzhi's face turned a little pale, "The one who committed the crime is not a person?"

Li Gongfu smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, don't worry, what the case is, we need to do further investigation to find out." Taking a step back, even if there are some kind of demons and ghosts, isn't there still the adults of the 'Heavenly Punishment Division' to deal with?"

Yang Xingzhi's expression calmed down a little: "Gongfu, this case is fully entrusted to you by the official, you must solve the case as soon as possible and arrest the real culprit!"

Li Gongfu arched his hand and said: "The next battle will live up to the trust of the adults!"

After coming out of the back hall, Li Gongfu happened to see the two messengers sent to summon Xiangshi Ji'an returning, but they were empty-handed.

"What's the matter with you, what about the Xiangshi?"

Hearing the questioning of the superior, the two servants bowed forward with a bitter face and a shy and ashamed face, and replied: "Li Tou'er, the brothers have lost people to you, and they have not been able to bring the minister. ”

Li Gongfu's face sank and asked, "What's going on?"

One of the officers said: "Li Tou'er, the two of us went to West Street, and sure enough, we found that Xiangshi Ji'an, explained the situation to him at that time, and asked him to immediately return to the yamen with us to cooperate in the investigation of the case." How do you know that the minister was not ashamed, saying that the yamen could come to him if he wanted to ask questions, but he didn't have time to come to the yamen. We were so angry that we were about to take the chains and bring them to him, but when we took out the chains, the priest disappeared out of thin air in front of the two of us. When the two of us took the chains and walked back, he appeared out of thin air. We knew that this Xiangshi was afraid of some origins, so he didn't dare to make a mistake for a while, so he came back first to report to Li Tou'er. ”

"It's a bit weird. Li Gongfu sneered slightly, "The two brothers will work hard again, how about leading me to summon the Xiangshi in person?"

The two errand officers naturally had no reason to refuse, and hurriedly led the way to West Street in front, and as soon as they entered the street, they pointed to the front and said: "Li Tou'er, you see a group of people surrounded in front, that is the fortune-telling stall of Xiangshi Ji'an." ”

Li Gongfu looked in the direction of his finger, and sure enough, he saw dozens of people on the side of the street, surrounded by three layers inside and outside, and people were all tiptoeing and stretching their necks to look inward, and from time to time there were bursts of exclamations, I don't know what rare scene they were looking at.

When the three of them came to the outside of the crowd, they heard a person inside say loudly: "Boss Jiang, the mountain people have cut off your recent fortune, now you only need to invite this spirit talisman home to *offer*, and the mountain people will ensure that you are lucky and avoid evil, and you will be lucky in trouble......"

Li Gongfu frowned when he heard this, and glanced at the two people around him, and the two errand servants immediately understood, stepped forward together and pushed the crowd hard, and shouted viciously in his mouth: "The government is doing business, hurry up and disperse!"

The people who were pushed in front of them turned around angrily, and when they saw that the two of them were indeed people in the palace gate wearing official clothes, they dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, so they had to swallow their anger and flash on both sides.

Li Gongfu followed a passage that split out like waves in the crowd to get inside, but saw that there was a table in it, and one person sat in front and one of them. Sitting outside was a middle-aged man who looked like a businessman, but inside was a short and fat man with a short stature. On both sides of the table, a pair of couplets are held with bamboo poles, and the couplet reads: "Six coins of money will determine blessing and misfortune." "The next linkage:" An iron mouth is broken. ”

He walked forward, came to the middle-aged man and said with a smile: "This old man, I have something to ask this gentleman for the next moment, how about I let me go?"

The middle-aged man should have known Li Gongfu, and when he heard this, he hurriedly got up and said with a smile: "Since Li Zhutou has something to do, the villain should let him go." With that, he obediently got up and flashed aside, but he was still staring at a yellow paper talisman in the hand of the short and fat man.

Li Gongfu sat opposite the short and fat man, and asked with a smile, "This must be Mr. Ji'an?"

The man's face remained unchanged, and he casually put the talisman into his sleeve, and said indifferently: "It turned out to be Li Zhutou in person, and the mountain man was Ji'an." ”

The smile on Li Gongfu's face suddenly fell, and his voice became cold: "The Fangcai County Government sent someone to send you to the court for questioning, why didn't you delay?"

Ji An laughed, and his face showed some contempt: "Shanren is originally a person from outside the world, how can he be bound by the secular government. If you ask for a courtesy, the mountain people may be able to guide you and others, and if you summon the mountain people as suspects, please forgive the mountain people for not being able to accompany them!"

Hearing such wild words from Ji An, everyone around them showed reverence, obviously regarding him as a real "master of the world".

Li Gongfu sneered: "Mr. is a good mouth, but I want to see whether you are a real master of the world, or a liar who deceives the world and steals your name." Wang Long, Zhao Xiang, this person's words are flickering, and he must be inseparable from the case, so quickly take him down and take him back to the county government for interrogation!"

The two servants agreed, unchained from their waists, and came to lock Nagian.

Ji An chuckled and said, "I'm only afraid that Li Zhutou is a worldly method, and I can't take the mountain man, a person outside the world!" Before the words fell, the body sitting on the chair suddenly disappeared out of thin air.

"Sure enough, it's a living immortal!"

Everyone around them exclaimed in unison, and the middle-aged man beat his chest even more, regretting that he had missed the spirit rune that was about to arrive.

The two messengers looked at the empty chair behind the table, holding the chains for a while, and they didn't know what to do, so they had to cast a distressed look at Li Gongfu.

Li Gongfu only snorted slightly: "It's just a trick, and you dare to take it out to show your ugliness!" As he spoke, he picked up the inkstone on the table, turned around and splashed the puddle of ink inside.

Everyone only heard an exclamation from the void, and most of the faces stained with ink appeared out of thin air.
