Chapter 106: Peeling the Cocoon(1/2)

The old man usually rented out this thing once, at most it costs twenty or thirty cents. Now it costs about eight or nine hundred yuan to exchange for one or two taels of silver, so Fang Linyan's price was completely beyond his expectations. He nodded and said excitedly:

"It's enough. This little old man in Yinwa only took it to the Dragon King Temple to worship him at the beginning of the month. This man will earn as long as he wants to use it."

Fang Linyan looked at the tile and found that it was less than half a palm-sized size. The complete tile was like a big sesame cake, and only about one-third of the tile was left.

Perhaps because it has been used to cook medicine for a long time, it has a clear brown color on it, which looks like tea stains. Of course, this is not the point. You can see that the word "Le" is vaguely written on it, and the rest is nothing special.

Then Fang Linyan called out a group of people to leave. When he was far away from the village and there were no outsiders around, Fang Linyan handed the thing to an old man next to him:

"Lao Jiaqing's eyes were taken."

The old man's name is Qingbo. He is taciturn. He has no other hobbies along the way except for his favorite tobacco. He is a core member of the incense sect.

The purpose of Li Ju brought him here was to think that the young master Hu in front of him was stupid, generous, and liked to do strange things. The key was that Li San, a smart character who was as smart as a monkey, did he kneel down and lick him? So Li San must have gained a lot of benefits from Mr. Hu.

Therefore, Li Ju also had the intention of doing this mission properly and tried every means to bring this "expert" over.

Qing Bo is an expert in the incense sect who encounters ghosts and gods, and he is really a kind of person who is known as a god. In the past few decades, he has solved the troubles of at least thousands of people.

Facing the things handed over by Fang Linyan, Qing Bo did not take them directly, but waved his hand and signaled Fang Linyan to put them on the stone next to him.

Then Uncle Qing took a few more puffs of cigarettes, then stuttered the pipe pot on the stone next to him twice, and did not enter the belt inside. After squatting down, he would dig the soil next to him with his hands.

The rest of the people felt a little confused when they saw this scene, but Fang Linyan was still waiting patiently.

Soon, Uncle Qing opened a dirt pit the size of a bowl on the ground, then straightened up and beat his waist, and began to roar twice at the top of his throat.

The sound was very strange, a bit like a donkey's croaking, or a bit like a dog's croaking. Cough, it's not like a human sound.

As a result, after he yelled, a yellow-skinned man crawled out of the grass beside him. The yellow-skinned man was not afraid of people, so he came to Qing Bo and stood up.

Uncle Qing took out a piece of cake, broke a small piece for the yellow skin to eat. After eating the yellow skin, he came to the pit and peed inside with his legs sticking out.

It's strange that the yellow skin only peed for a small bubble, and the soil pit was filled with a lot of water. It seemed that there was a spring underneath, which soon filled the water. The people around were also amazed at it and thought it was incredible.

Then Uncle Qing reached into the pit to wash, but there was no reaction when washing. After more than ten seconds, he wiped his clothes with his hands, and then he went to get the broken tiles placed on the stone next to him.

Who knew that when Qing Bo picked up the tile, he saw strands of white gas coming out where his fingers touched the tile, and an unpleasant smell appeared in the air, as if he had touched a piece of red-burned iron directly!

Uncle Qing squinted his eyes and stared at the tiles for a while, then slowly put them down, and then washed his hands in the yellow-skinned urine pit. At this time, when the people next to him saw such a strange situation, they were all a little stunned, and they were far away from the tiles, even Zhang Fei was no exception.

After Qing Bo washed his hands again, it was wrong. To be precise, it should have been washed properly. Then he came to Fang Linyan and said slowly:

"Young Master is here, the old man has made a vow in front of the statue of the Sanxiao Empress in his life. He will never say anything false, so he can only say something that can be confirmed."

Fang Linyan nodded and said:

"Okay, you said, "

Uncle Qing pondered for a while and said:

"The evil energy on this tiles is very strong. As far as the old man knows, using it to decoct medicine will be harmful to the body."

Then he thought about it again:

"The old man respects the family god (yellow skin, fox fairy, etc.), but the way above the tiles is made by ghosts. From this point of view, it makes sense."

After saying that, Uncle Qing closed his mouth and continued smoking dry cigarettes.

After Fang Linyan received these two messages, he pondered for a while and then went to Xu Dahu's house next to him. This was the destination for Li San's contact. Xu Dahu was a relative of his brother before, and he had a good relationship with Li San.

Before, Li San discovered that Li Ju was very concerned about Mr. Hu's affairs, so this guy started to feel in his heart. Could it be that the other party also fell in love with the butler? Therefore, he felt a great threat, so he looked at Li Ju twice as disliked. The two of them were so angry that they could be called a serious internal circulation.

In order not to fall behind, Li San was also very active at this time. After Fang Linyan settled down and decided to settle down, he immediately came to ask for credit:

"Young Master, the boat here is ready. It is the big Wupeng boat nearby. The weather is pretty good today. The fishermen said it would be fine to go around the waters of the Underwater City."

Fang Linyan waved his hand and said:

"This matter is not urgent."

Li San said in surprise:

"Is this matter not urgent?"

Fang Linyan Road:

"Well, no hurry. The most urgent thing now is to investigate the subsequent status of people who have used the broken tiles of Old Man Liu as decoction, especially those who have been cured after drinking them."

"What are the specific situations to collect? The diseases, gender, age of the person who drinks the medicine, and the physical condition that occurs within half a year after taking the medicine, please collect at least ten people."

Then Fang Linyan took out 100 taels to Li San:

"You go find Mr. Xu and let him get this done as soon as possible."

Li San did not accept the money and said readily:

"I'll do it for you right away if you want such a small matter."

Looking at Li San's back as he left, Fang Linyan smiled slightly, then went to find Li Ju and said:

"Senior Brother, your incense sect has a branch here, right?"

Li Ju nodded:

“Yeah, right.”

Fang Linyan Road:

"I need local brothers to help me find out what happened, just how many people are surrounded by Mata Lake and have the same Yinwa as Old Man Liu?"

"By the way, let me ask, how effective is the Yinwa of those people?"

Li Ju nodded, then took out a waist card and threw it to a man next to him:

"Did you hear the young master's words? Go and do it quickly."

This man's surname is Huang, and he is Li Ju's second disciple. He is usually responsible for handling a series of trivial matters for him. He immediately beat Li Ju and a thousand-year-old:

"Yes! I'll go now!"

***

When it was dark, all information from all aspects was summarized one by one. First, news came from Huang Er:

There are six people like Old Man Liu who possess Yinwa near Matahu, and they are called Yin medicine shops. Because the legend of Yinwa has been widely circulated, and under the various opinions, it is not just a medicine introduction, but everything that can cure all diseases has been spread.

In this case, villagers like to make a yin tile as a guide when decoding medicine. Usually, they give money, but if they really don’t have money, they can also get this thing to decoct medicine with a fish and a few eggs.

As for the efficacy? There are really.

The most typical example is that I have taken five or six doses of medicine from the doctor before but have not improved. After asking Yinwa as a medicine guide, the same medicine can often take effect quickly and have significant therapeutic effects.

Then came the information obtained by Li San - this kind of investigation is definitely the most convenient thing for locals to do, so Li San actually did it through local incense sects. The country people have a shallow vision and only spent about two taels of silver to get it done.

Among the information Li San obtained, there were a list of seventeen people, including ten men and seven women, with age spans ranging from seven to sixty-eight years old. The diseases they suffered were all kinds of, including those who broke their legs, those who had wind and cold, those who had diarrhea, and those who had smallpox.

Because Fang Linyan had instructed to focus on collecting the list of people who take the medicine and take effect after taking the medicine, there are fifteen people here who are effective after taking the medicine and can get out of bed and work after they resume their actions within a week.

The two invalid Fang Linyan looked at it and were both dead.

First of all, Fang Linyan found that among the fifteen people included in the statistics, eight of them had died, with the death rate exceeding 50%. In terms of age, it is obviously a tendency to aging, and those who die are over forty years old.

Then among the seven remaining people who survived, the current situation was not very good. Four people were lingering in the sickbed again, and only three were still acceptable.

Among these three people, one is the seven-year-old child, and the other two are not over fifteen years old.

After seeing such information, Fang Lin Yanxin basically had a number.

It was already late at night, so I went to bed directly.

After getting up early the next morning, both Li Ju and Li San thought Fang Linyan should go to the lake to take a look?

After all, before coming here, it can be said that Fang Linyan was conducting an investigation around the Shencheng at the bottom of the lake. Unexpectedly, after Fang Linyan arrived at the place, he actually started to investigate some strange things.

But what they never expected was that Fang Linyan's request was to investigate the other five other Yin medicine shops, and the content of the investigation was also very simple, exactly the same as what Li San investigated yesterday.

Fortunately, Fang Linyan is a big financial backer and is quite generous in his actions. There are not many people asking for investigation, just a dozen of them are enough.

So under Fang Linyan's silver bullet attack, information was quickly summarized.

Fang Linyan looked at the information and his eyebrows gradually stretched out, then pondered for a while and said:

"We are getting closer and closer to that secret, and maybe we can unlock it today!"

Before Fang Linyan came here, he told Li Ju and Li San all his purpose. The purpose of doing this was to focus on the favorability of the two, and to rely on the strength and wisdom of the two.

Therefore, when Li Ju and Li San heard Fang Linyan say this, they were both surprised. They were still confused now, so why were they going to unlock the secret?

At this time, a servant suddenly ran in outside, who was a servant from Xu Dahu's house, and then said to Fang Linyan:

"This young man, Mr. Deng came back with someone and said you wanted him to find him."

Mr. Deng is actually just like Zhang Fei. Why did he get this nickname because he is strong and because he is terrified of his skin. When Li Ju and Li San were working on things in the morning, Fang Linyan also took 50 taels of silver for him to help him do his job.

At this time, Fang Linyan smiled and said:

"Please quickly."

Soon, Sai Zhang Fei brought an old woman in. The old woman was used to walking around the streets and alleys. Her eyes were swaying. After entering, she did not find any patient or see any medicine jars. So she smelled something wrong and directly sued her for a crime and said with a dry smile:

"Oh, my old woman seemed to have a stomachache today, so I'm going to give me a first!"

Fang Linyan smiled and said:
To be continued...
