"To be honest, Master Wu," Xiaotao's father respectfully handed me a flower, "yesterday afternoon, a shabby Taoist priest came to the village. He saw the wreaths at our house and came in. I thought
It was a beggar, so he took two hundred yuan and sent it away. The Taoist priest said that I was kind-hearted and wanted to repay me by finding a cemetery with excellent Feng Shui for Xiaotao."
"Oh...then what?" I asked suspiciously.
"Then I said, I have already invited Master Wu to show Xiaotao the cemetery. Master Wu is one of the best masters in the city's funeral parlor, so I don't need to worry about it, right?"
I nodded. Although Xiao Tao's father is stingy, he is quite talkative. I hope Xiao Tao can inherit this trait from her father. Will the daughter follow her father?
"But the Taoist priest insisted on choosing a place for Xiaotao. He also said that my little Tao was destined to be wealthy. Even if he went to the underworld, he would still be a person who needs royal food. Being able to choose a burial place for Xiaotao is a blessing he has cultivated in his life.
, and also said that it doesn’t matter even if the choice is not good, Master Wu’s method should prevail.”
"Then what?" I asked again. This Taoist priest is very powerful. He can actually calculate what happened after Li Xiaotao's death. Xie Xin'an made it clear before that he wanted to take Li Xiaotao as his subordinate, which meant becoming an underworld agent.
, which is roughly equivalent to patrolling in the Yang Realm, isn’t it just like “eating the emperor’s food”!
"Let me think about it, it doesn't hurt to let it have a look. Of course, in the end I will definitely listen to Master Wu, so I will bring it here. Guess what -" Li Xiaotao's father drew a circle nearby with his hand, "
The place chosen by the Taoist priest is also here!"
"Really?" I said happily, but I didn't expect that I was wrong. I was a fake master, but that Taoist priest might be a genuine master of finding gold-fixed acupoints.
"Second brother, didn't the Taoist priest bury a copper coin here yesterday? He said it was going to be the center point of the coffin pit. Let's dig it out and have a look to see how far it is from the point set by Master Wu?" a fellow villager next to him asked.
Dao, I guess he has never encountered such a strange thing in his life.
Before Li Xiaotao's father agreed, the villagers started looking for the copper coin with the picks and shovels they brought with them (for digging grave pits). After rummaging for a long time, they found the copper coin next to the branch where I stood.
The soil was rummaged through, but nothing was found.
The noisy villager scratched his head: "I clearly remember this is here, but why can't I find it? Could it be that the big money (copper coins) ran away on its own?"
A nearby villager was timid and timidly said: "Fourth, don't scare me. This is a cemetery. Don't talk nonsense."
"I don't remember it being here. Did Master Wu calculate it and deviate too much?" One villager expressed doubts about my Feng Shui technique. This is called preconception, because it was the Taoist priest who came to position it first... Of course, from a professional point of view
In other words, I am definitely not as good as others.
Li Xiaotao's father looked embarrassed and waved his hand to signal them to stop talking.
"Um... Master Wu, deviations are inevitable. Besides, the Taoist's decision may not be accurate. We'd better dig a hole according to the location you gave! Brothers, let's get started and dig a small hole first.
Pit, make a mark!" Xiao Tao's father ordered.
A strong villager spit in the palm of his hand, picked up the pickaxe, and dug into the branch where I inserted it.
There was a crisp sound of "clang", and the sturdy villager was puzzled. He lay on the ground, dug up the soil with his hands, and pulled out my branch. Seeing the scene in front of me, even I was shocked - my
That branch actually passed directly through the square hole in the middle of a copper coin!
No wonder they searched around the branches for a long time and couldn't find the copper coin. It was dark under the lamp!
"Master is really a god!" The strong villager was the first to bow in admiration, and actually knelt on the ground with a thud and kowtowed to me. Seeing this, several other villagers, including Li Xiaotao's father, also knelt down and five people surrounded me.
The center kowtowed to me in unison, which made me a little scared. I was afraid that a few of them would inadvertently form some kind of formation and trap me in it!
"Brothers, please get up quickly!" I helped them up respectively.
"So, the Taoist priest yesterday was also a god! His position was exactly the same as Master Wu's!" The meddlesome villager also said in surprise.
"It's just a coincidence, it's just a coincidence." I said with a smile, but my heart was full of doubts. The area of the hill was quite large, with nearly two hundred graves and a large area of open space between the graves. How could such a coincidence happen?
I inserted it randomly and got it right. Even if I came here yesterday and deliberately buried a copper coin, I might not be able to insert it so accurately with a branch today!
There must be something fishy about this matter. That Taoist priest is obviously helping me establish my prestige to facilitate my subsequent plans - could he be sent by Xie Xin'an?
Just ask her later and you will know.
After I had decided on a seat and marked my seat, Li Xiaotao's relatives happily sent me down the mountain. They asked me many questions about Feng Shui along the way, but I tried to explain them away in a pretentious way. When I arrived at the entrance of the village, Xiaotao's father wanted to keep me for dinner, but he couldn't.
Well, I feel that I have already lied a few times, and some of the "doctrine" even contradicts itself. If I drink two more drinks, I will be talking too much, and the truth will definitely be revealed.
"I still have a lot of work at the funeral parlor, so I have to go back. Let's see you tomorrow when Xiaotao's funeral is held." I shook hands with Xiaotao's father and said goodbye. He didn't forget his "mission" and gave me two pieces of money.
He was not polite and threw it into the back seat of the A6.
After leaving the village, I immediately called Xie Xin'an and told her about the Taoist priest and asked if she was the one sent to help me.
"No, I don't know any Taoist priests," Xie Xin'an whispered, "I'm helping you get out of the car. You fell down. We'll talk later."
If it's not Xie Xin'an, who could it be?
She doesn't know a Taoist priest, and neither do I. It seems that I have never seen a living Taoist priest since I was a child.
Just as I was puzzled, Liu Feng's call came in.
"Have you caught the girl?" I asked.
"No..." Liu Feng smiled bitterly, "That guy was too cunning. He slipped us around, broke through several layers of obstacles, and finally ran into the mountains."
"In the mountains? Where are there mountains here?" I asked doubtfully.
"Qipanshan."
Damn it, I actually chased him that far!
Qipan Mountain belongs to this city. It is located in the northwest, more than a hundred kilometers away from the city. My classmates and I have hiked up that mountain. The top of the mountain is a large flat stone, like a Go board. It has a good name.
.
"Didn't you find any other information about the murderer?" I asked again.
"Nothing was found. There is no information about her in the population database. There is no one who even looks like her - the surveillance clearly captured her face, which is really strange." Liu Feng said a little frustrated.
explain.
I recalled the appearance of that woman. Indeed, she looked a bit strange. I can't say what was strange about it - the distance between her eyes seemed to be larger than that of a normal person. Anyway, she was not good-looking, nor was she ugly. Her face was quite charming.
Photographic memory.
"No matter what, thank you for last night." Liu Feng said politely.
"It's all what I should do." I smiled. My main purpose last night was to save Feng Jiajia. Fortunately, I succeeded.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Liu Feng hung up the phone.
Twenty minutes later, I returned to the city. I was a little tired. Anyway, Xie Xin'an helped me cover the shift. Is it okay if I rest for half a day?
The first thing is to pay off my mortgage first. There should be more than 700,000 left!
When I arrived at the provident fund center, I went through the formalities. Because I paid it off in one go, the procedure was not complicated. It only took ten minutes. I paid back a total of 758,000 yuan including principal and interest. This time, the house was completely owned by me.
After paying off the mortgage, I still have more than 2 million left. Let’s put aside the matter of changing the car. Anyway, now I have a hearse to travel around, and I enjoy special treatment. It is more convenient than a private car. Let’s buy a watch first. There is a Blancpain.
I have been thinking about this brand of watch for a long time. The public price is more than 140,000. For me before, it was simply an unattainable dream (even if I have hundreds of thousands in my hand, I can't spend it all to buy a watch.
).
I had only researched that watch online and didn’t dare to go to a physical store to look at it for fear of being poisoned. Now that I have money, I finally dared to go.
When I arrived at the Blancpain flagship store in this city, I was about to ask the shopping guide if he had that kind of watch. Suddenly, I saw a Taoist priest wearing a blue robe sitting on the sofa in the corner of the store!?
Could it be that it was someone who went to Li Xiaotao's house yesterday?
No way, do Taoist priests have women? Moreover, they are quite beautiful...
