Ah Hao glanced at Ah Cai speechlessly and said with a smile: "Master, Uncle Wu is from Maoshan whether he is alive or dead. It is related to the reputation of Maoshan. This matter must not be left alone."
Lin Jiu took a sip of tea, raised her eyes slightly to look at Ahao, and said calmly: "Then how do you think we should find Wu Hai?"
"Hahaha..." Ahao laughed awkwardly and scratched his head, "I don't know either."
Lin Jiu sighed inwardly. As a master, how can he not know his apprentice's abilities?
Ahao's mind is undoubtedly very smart. If he thinks carefully, he will definitely be able to figure out some clues. However, this child has stayed with him for too long and has become accustomed to relying on him. He is far behind in being able to stand alone.
"Wu Hai is dying."
Lin Jiu shook his head slightly and said calmly: "Looking at the current situation, he probably doesn't want to die, and he will do whatever it takes to survive."
Although his voice was calm, his words were precise.
These words were not groundless. After Deng Xiaoling's incident, he began to investigate Wu Hai. With Maoshan's strong relationship with him, Lin Jiu quickly obtained information from a ghost market. Wu Hai had begun to use the soul-creating method a few years ago.
Exchange materials in the ghost market.
Yinsha, Ghostface Flower, Corpse Rice, Dead Soul Water.
The first three were all evil things, but the last one made Lin Jiu almost certain that Wu Hai was about to die.
This thing is an extremely poisonous thing. Whether it is a living person or a ghost, drinking it will definitely lead to death.
Did Wu Hai use his life soul in exchange for this thing because he thought he didn't die quickly enough?
No!
Wu Hai's lineage is extremely skilled in capturing souls and capturing souls. The Dead Soul Water is useless to others, but for Wu Hai, the Dead Soul Water can fight poison with poison and forcibly hang a person's life. For Wu Hai, who has no relatives and no connections, this is
It is not difficult to guess who the gadget is for.
Here it is.
Thinking of the innocent souls imprisoned in Deng Xiaoling's quagmire, the intelligence gained half a dozen points of credibility.
the other side.
Ah Hao and Ah Cai looked at each other, not understanding what this meant, and then Ah Cai asked tentatively: "Master, you said that Uncle Wu faked his death and escaped because he was about to die?
"But what is the purpose of his fake death?"
Lin Jiu shook his head and said bluntly: "My teacher has not thought about this. If Wu Hai really has his own plan, it stands to reason that the less people pay attention to it, the better, instead of deliberately breaking the life tablet to attract Maoshan's attention."
"Unless he has to ask Maoshan to send someone over!"
This was said by Li Kui.
Lin Jiu suddenly raised his head and looked at Li Kui, then nodded thoughtfully, put aside the topic and said: "Ah Cai, Ah Hao, go prepare lunch first, I am hungry!"
"..."
"Okay!" the two responded.
Smoke rises from the sky above Xiaoyizhuang.

night.
Dark clouds cover the bright moon, and candles are lit in Yizhuang.
In the lobby, Lin Jiu sat on the Taishi chair, burned a strange yellow talisman, and then waited patiently.
Li Kui and the other three stood beside Lin Jiu.
After about a minute or two, Li Kui felt that the temperature around him seemed to have dropped a lot. He couldn't help but rub his exposed arm. The next second, his eyes blurred. There were already four ghost servants sitting in front of him, wearing long coats and expressions on their faces.
Pale, with a solemn expression.
The air seemed to become thicker.
After the four ghost messengers appeared, one of them with a majestic appearance spoke. However, when it fell into the ears of Ah Hao and Ah Cai, they couldn't understand it at all. Fortunately, they had already prepared the prepared pills.
Swallow the medicine.
Ah Hao bumped Li Kui's shoulder and was about to put the elixir into his hand, but was rejected by the latter. He thought Li Kui was trying to avoid suspicion, so he had no choice but to put it away, but he didn't know that Li Kui had the ability to communicate with the underworld.
, although it can only be mastered, it is not difficult to listen to nonsense.
The conversation on the other side has already begun.
"I didn't expect that Plum Blossom Town would be taken over by Taoist priest Lin. I have admired him for a long time."
"I invite you all to come up this time. In addition to meeting you all, I also have a few unkind invitations." Lin Jiu said with cupped fists.
"Just say whatever Taoist Lin has to say. If there is anything we know, we will tell you everything." A decent-looking ghost official said.
"There are two things. First, Gou Honglin, a resident of Meihua Town, has been dead for many days. Has he entered the underworld? Second, is Wu Hai from Yizhuang, Meihua Town, no longer alive?"
Lin Jiu got straight to the point.
"As for the second thing, I can directly tell Taoist Lin that Wu Hai is not dead yet. If he dies, we will know as soon as possible and arrange for him to enter the underworld."
The four ghosts looked at each other, and then the majestic-looking ghost spoke. The other three whispered to each other, flipped their wrists, took out three books, and began to read.
The cooperation between Maoshan and the Yin Division has been going on for a long time. Whenever a recorded disciple of Maoshan dies, the underworld will arrange ghost messengers to come and pick him up. From then on, he will either work in the Yin Division or rely on the Yin virtue saved before him to be reborn into a good child.
After receiving the exact information from Gui Cha, Lin Jiu nodded slightly, cupped his hands and thanked him.
About five minutes later, the other three ghosts looked at each other, and the upright-looking ghost said: "We looked through it and found that Gou Honglin died two years ago and has not yet entered the underworld."
Hearing this, Lin Jiu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and even the three people behind him murmured subconsciously.
"This is a little thought from my side. Please accept it, four of you."
Lin Jiu took out several dark coins with strange styles from his arms and handed them to the four ghost servants.
the other side.
Li Kui noticed that the dark pupils of the four ghosts seemed to light up. He first said a few polite words, then half-pushed them away, and the corners of his tightly pursed pale mouth also formed a smile.
‘Are a few Hades coins so valuable?’ he thought to himself.
"It's a ghost coin stained with evil virtues, just like gold. You think it's precious or not!"
Ah Hao seemed to notice Li Kui's confusion and explained in a low voice.
Li Kui twitched the corner of his mouth.
then.
As the four ghosts left, the temperature in the hall became warm again.
"Master."
Ah Cai's words were full of worry, and with his careless temperament, he could feel that a whirlpool was involving them. Whether it was a blessing or a disaster was yet to be determined.
"Uncle Jiu, it seems that Gou Honglin's matter must be related to Wu Hai." Li Kui said.
Gou Honglin was just an ordinary mortal, how could he stay in the Yang world for two years after his death? Without the help of outsiders, it would be almost impossible to do it. He happened to be born at this juncture, and Wu Hai faked his death and disappeared. It is hard not to think of him
to see if there is a relationship between the two.
Lin Jiu tapped on the table and said nothing.
Half a moment.
"You can't find Wu Hai, but you can find Gou Honglin, and you can fish for big fish with a long-term plan." Lin Jiu said slowly: "It's time to wait. The longer the delay, the more disadvantageous it may be to us. Ah Hao... You and Ah Kui are now
Go to Plum Blossom Town later in the evening, bring your magic weapon, and be careful."
Li Kui and Ah Hao looked at each other and responded in unison.
Soon the two turned around and left the lobby.
Lin Jiu waved her hand towards Ah Cai and whispered a few words. The latter nodded repeatedly, then turned and left. Lin Jiu was the only one left in the huge lobby.
"Wu Hai, you did something you shouldn't have done." Lin Jiu murmured softly.
He took out a yellow talisman from his arms and unfolded it in front of his eyes. There were densely written small characters on the talisman. The contents were mostly about the murders committed by Deng Xiaoling, and some of them were written by Wu Hai hidden in the dark.
A few crosses were the unjust deaths of hundreds of people.
There is a saying: If you don’t want others to know, don’t do it unless you do it yourself.
Wu Hai acted covertly, leaving almost no clues in Yizhuang, but Lin Jiu used Deng Xiaoling to catch what Wu Hai had been doing in the past few years.
Many things are not difficult to trace as long as you find a hole. What's more, Lin Jiu has Maoshan's back, and there are countless people who want to find out some things. Ghosts are willing to help in exchange for a favor.
This is also the real reason why Lin Jiu has been tracking down Wu Hai!
Suddenly.
Lin Jiu raised his head and saw a person walking in from the door. It was Li Kui, with a smile on his face:
"What's wrong, A Kui, is there something wrong?"
Li Kui looked at the middle-aged man with white hair and an upright appearance in front of him and said with the same smile:
"Uncle Jiu, I have something to tell you."
"Oh? You said..."
