Chapter 275

Just when I was still thinking about how orthodox demon cultivators can be, Nangong Fancong pulled my arm and motioned for me to say hello to the Red Devil.

Only then did I come back to my senses and Nangong Fang and Nangong Fan raised their hands to the Red Devil and said, "Hello, Senior Red Devil!"

Red Devil smiled at us and said, "You should call me Fairy Red Devil. I feel a little awkward when I only use the word Red Devil!"

Red Fairy?

This name does sound a bit benign. Before, the word "Red Devil" always made people feel a bit sinister.

In addition, the smile on the Red Devil Fairy's face is also much gentler, and it doesn't match the evil energy in her body at all.

After saying hello, Long Wanshan led us into the villa on the edge of Taihu Lake.

We didn't stop on the first floor. He led us directly to the study on the second floor. When we got to the study, the Red Devil Fairy brought us a pot of tea. After pouring it for each of us, she turned to us.

He smiled slightly and said, "You can tell them what's next. I'll go back to Dragon Palace City first. When you're done, go to Dragon Palace City to find me!"

After saying that, the Red Devil Fairy turned and left.

Ryugu Castle!? This is not the first time I have heard of this name, but I am still very curious about it. I really want to know where Ryugu Castle is.

Long Wanshan seemed to see through my mind. After the Red Devil Fairy left, he said: "Dragon Palace City is under Taihu Lake. When there is a chance in the future, I will take you to go there. It is a very good underwater city."

!”

Underwater city!?

How do people live underwater? I asked Long Wanshan directly.

He didn't explain it to me, he just said that I would find out later when I go there by myself. Then he took a leather bag from the bookshelf behind him and handed it to me and said, "This is your twenty-fifth case!"

After taking the cowhide bag, I saw a few big characters on the bag - "White Pelvis, Old Crow Persimmon".

When I saw these words, I couldn't help but think that the white bone pelvis may literally mean a basin made of bones. As for Laoya persimmon, I have actually heard of this name. It is a kind of persimmon from East China.

The tree blooms in April and May and bears fruit in September and October.

The reason why I know this is because when I was a freshman, there was a classmate in my class who came from Fujian and Zhejiang. He once brought us those kind of persimmons to eat, and he also briefly told us about the situation of Laoya persimmons.

I looked at the cover in a daze, and Nangong Fanzong said to me: "Hurry up and read what's written inside. You can't read a name for a long time, but you can't read!"

I smiled awkwardly and quickly opened the cowhide bag.

Long Wanshan took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "It seems that little brother Chen Yu has a very strict tutor!"

Tutor!? I'm afraid Long Wanshan misunderstood my relationship with Nangong Fan. I was just about to explain when Long Wanshan's cell phone suddenly rang. He stood up and said to us: "You guys look at the information first, I'll go out and pick it up."

If you don’t understand anything later, please wait until I call back and ask me again!”

With that said, Long Wanshan got up and left the study with his mobile phone.

I opened the leather bag, took out the information and read it. It was a few photos and a few pieces of paper.

The photo shows a huge bonsai taken from various angles. The pot is made of white porcelain. As for the plant in the bonsai, it should be Lao Crow Persimmon.

The diameter of the white porcelain basin must be at least two or three meters. The persimmon in the basin is about as thick as a person's arms. The branches and leaves of the persimmon in the photo have been cut off, but the shape is very strange. The two trunks at the top look like

It looked like two pythons were wrestling together.

Looking at the photos, it makes people feel a little eerie.

There is also a photo of a panoramic view of the old crow persimmon, and there is a sign in front of the huge white porcelain basin. The price marked on the sign is: 660,000.

When I saw the price, I couldn't help but be surprised. Is this bonsai made of crow persimmon so expensive?

In the photo, there is a sign next to the price sign with the four words "Double Dragons Playing with Pearls" written on it. I guess that is the name of the old crow persimmon bonsai.

After looking at those photos, I looked at the information again and found out that the person involved in this case was Bai Linhao, a wealthy businessman from Fujian and Zhejiang. He had collected this old crow persimmon from the countryside of Fujian and Zhejiang, and then arranged it in his house.

In a villa near the mountains in the south of Jinhua City.

The white porcelain basin was custom-made by him. There was a special porcelain kiln to bake it for him. It also cost hundreds of thousands. It is said that in order to bake the white porcelain basin, he even built a porcelain kiln. However, after the porcelain kiln finished firing,

The huge white porcelain basin was later dismantled.

After bringing the white porcelain pot to the villa and finding a bonsai expert to plant the old crow persimmon, strange things started to happen in Bai Linhao's house.

First, the expensive cat and dog raised by his family died strangely after hanging on the old crow persimmon bonsai, and then his youngest son climbed up the bonsai to play and broke his leg.

Also, after the Lao Crow persimmon is planted, it does not grow any branches and leaves, but blooms directly on the trunk. When the Lao Crow persimmon flowers first bloom, they are green and resemble a small trumpet.

But the flowers of his old crow persimmon are all blood red, and a drop of blood drips out of the stamens every day, dyeing the entire soil in the white porcelain basin blood red.

Seeing this, I was a little curious. If there is such a situation, there should be a photo. Why is there not this photo in the photo we just looked at, but a text description?

I looked through all the photos to make sure there was no such photo.

At this time, Long Wanshan came back from answering the phone, and I happened to ask Long Wanshan this question.

He put all the photos in front of me and said: "These were taken by the victim, Bai Linhao, after discovering the strange situation of Lao Yashi. It's just that Bai Linhao said that he could see the flowers and blood, but they couldn't be captured in the photos."

I said directly: "Is this a ghost covering your eyes?"

Long Wanshan said: "Maybe, we didn't send special personnel to investigate, so all the information was recorded through the narration of the victim Bai Linhao."

I nodded.

The following information is not important. It mainly tells that Bai Linhao felt the strangeness of the old crow persimmon bonsai, so he gave it a name, and then marked the price to sell it.

So the photo with the price on it is not the photo when Bai Linhao bought Laoya Shi, but the photo when he sold it to others.

It's just that many people have heard about the strange things in his family, so his bonsai cannot be sold.

And he was not willing to destroy the bonsai, so he asked someone to help solve this strange thing.

Next is Bai Linhao's contact number and the address of the villa in Jinhua Shinan.

This is all the information.

After reading this information, Long Wanshan asked us: "Do you have any questions?"

I shook my head and said, "No more for now, we can set out to handle this case now!"

Long Wanshan said: "Okay, but before you go to file this case, I want to introduce you to another person. This person is called Hu Jiashu. He is the leader among the new generation of monks in our East China Branch. This time, the Hundred Stars List, ranking

Sixth, he loves bonsais, especially bonsais made from the old crow persimmon material. Let him go with you, maybe he can be of great help!"

Hu Jiashu!? Number six on the 100-star list. He should be a master, too. It would be best if he comes to help us.

I asked Long Wanshan where that Hu Jiashu was.

Long Wanshan said: "You guys wait at the villa first. He is already on his way here. He is driving the car. When he comes, you will set off together."

Nangong Fan and I nodded.

After drinking tea in the study for a while and chatting casually for more than ten minutes, Hu Jiashu arrived. He parked the car in front of the villa and went directly upstairs to the study to salute Long Wanshan.

I also saw this man named Hu Jiashu. He looked about 26 or 27 years old. He was not too handsome, but he had an excellent temperament. If that kind of temperament could be described in two words, then

That is: elegance.

Everything he did and everything he said was courteous.

This elegant temperament makes him look a bit mature, which always makes me think he has a heart of forty or fifty years old and an appearance of more than 20 years old.

However, Hu Jiashu is a kind-hearted person, and I have a pretty good impression of him for the time being.

After saluting Long Wanshan, Hu Jiashu smiled at us and said: "You two are friendly Taoists. In this case, we are temporarily companions. I hope you will take care of us!"

I said: "Look out for each other!"

At this time, Hu Jiashu said again: "Let's set off now. I now have some new information. I will tell you in detail about this case on the way to Jinhua!"

I asked Hu Jiashu what new information he had, and he said: "There is a dead person in the Bai family villa, just under the bonsai of the old crow and persimmon. Okay, let's go first. I will tell you slowly about the specific situation of this dead person on the way.

!”

Nangong Fan and I also nodded.

This death means that the person involved in the case is very fierce. And since Long Wanshan has arranged for a master to follow us on this case, it means that this case may be very difficult, so from now on, we must take it seriously.

.

After leaving the villa, we got into Hu Jiashu's car.

His car is a relatively spacious business SUV, which is the type I like. It seems that he and I have some common interests. Maybe he and I can become good friends.

When I saw this car, I couldn't help but want to drive it myself. Hu Jiashu was also very generous and directly asked me to sit in the driving seat and said, "It's okay. You can drive if you want. I'll show you the way."

After setting off, Hu Jiashu told us: "I just got the news that the person who died under the old crow persimmon bonsai this time was Bai Linhao's wife. Her death was captured on their home's surveillance video. The scene was very strange.

, I’ll show it to you right now!”

As he spoke, Hu Jiashu took out his mobile phone and clicked on a video... (To be continued)
