Mu Yunhan was extremely contemptuous. Du Lao Qi betrayed Water Ghost Lao Wu because he was jealous and wanted to take away his livelihood. He deliberately lured her to do it for him.
She did not reveal Du Laoqi's thoughts and said calmly: "What does this ancestral business mean specifically? Do you know?
Also, you said that the little girl had her head shaved and she looked crazy. How did you tell that?
You can tell so much just by looking at each other, are you afraid you are lying to me again?"
Mu Li made a gesture and drew his sword. Du Laoqi was so frightened that he protected his ears tightly and shouted: "Madam, you don't know something. In our line of work, there are some secret medicines passed down from our ancestors, which are very useful!
Do you know about Pat Hanako? It uses a special secret medicine, which is colorless and odorless. With a tap on the shoulder, you just need to turn around. No matter how smart you are, you will still fall victim to this trick!
The little girl's eyes were distracted, and she would do whatever she was told to do. Wasn't she just a trick to take advantage of her?
Believe me, I, Du Laoqi, have always had poisonous eyes, and I will never make a mistake again!
Also, the business of Lao Wu, the Water Ghost, seems to indicate that his ancestor was a servant of some noble person.
After getting this job, he helped transport people across the river every year. He earned so much that if anyone knew about it, he would be beheaded.
But I still asked a lot about it. The woman with the black dog was the one who crossed the river in his boat!
He has a backer on the other side of the river, and by sending people there, he can make them disappear into the world without anyone noticing, never to be found again!"
Mu Yunhan asked him to pick up the gold ingots on the ground: "It belongs to you. If I ask you to help me contact Water Ghost Lao Wu and ask him to send me across the river, can you do it?"
When Du Laoqi saw that he could survive, he immediately thought: "Of course! I didn't dare to tell my wife about this water ghost Lao Wu before because I was afraid that he would be harmful to you!"
Mu Yunhan twitched the corners of his lips: "Okay, that's it."
She stood up and walked out. Du Laoqi picked up two severed fingers and wanted to retreat, but Mu Li grabbed him by the collar: "Did I let you go?"
Du Laoqi dared not speak out in anger, and wailed with a mournful face: "My hand... is going to kill someone..."
"Why are you howling!" Xiaomi slapped him across the face and poured a pot of liquor on his head: "I'll handle it for you. It wouldn't be a pity for a bad person like you to die ten thousand times."
Mu Yunhan got up early the next morning and called people together to make arrangements.
She knew that Meng Jia would definitely send someone to keep an eye on her, but she was not afraid of being discovered by him, so she just took it as an extra layer of protection.
When everything was ready, under the guidance of Du Laoqi, Xiaomi walked to a wild pier on the riverside and found a lonely flagpole.
What was hung on the flagpole was not a flag, but a soul-calling flag. It had been washed away by the rain several times, and the colored paper had turned white and tattered. There was also a crow sitting on the top of the flagpole, making strange cries from time to time.
Looks weird.
Xiaomi got goosebumps on his arms just by looking at it. He hung up a wooden sign on the flagpole. After waiting for a while, when he saw that there was nothing around, he went back.
The wooden sign was also made under Du Laoqi's guidance. It was an ordinary peach wood sign with a dragon's head carved on one side and the birth date of the person he was looking for on the other.
Everything is ready, all we need is the east wind, the rest is waiting.
There was no talking all night. At noon the next day, Xiaomi and Mu Yunhan went to the bottom of the soul-calling pole on time. They saw that the wooden sign had disappeared, but they did not see the boat or the people.
Mu Yunhan sat down there and waited quietly. This was the relationship between fishermen and fish, and she could afford to wait.
