Chapter 106 Di Bao
Early morning.
The slightly cold wind blew away the white mist, and the thin clouds floated in the frozen blue sky.
With the scattered sounds of roosters crowing at dawn, Yishui County gradually wakes up from its sleep.
As usual, Cui Tianyou came to the exorcism department office early to work.
Last night, because he was drunk and high, he annoyed the "tigress" at home, and he was kept outside the house to blow the cold wind all night.
Although as a practitioner, sleep is not necessary for Cui Tianyou, but at this moment, he was yawning constantly because of mental and physical exhaustion.
“Hmph, when I become a successful person one day, I must divorce that damn bitch!” He cursed secretly in his heart, “First go to the Jiaofangsi in Luojing City to have fun for three days and three nights, and then I’ll take a job. The beautiful concubine in the seventh and eighth bedrooms, let’s have a good time as an official!”
As the official in charge of documents, money and food, the first thing Cui Tianyou does after arriving at the Yamen every day is Read the latest Di Bao to learn about the important events that have happened in the Da Qi court recently, and synchronize these news to other officials.
The imperial court of Da Qi used a special magic circle to deliver reports to various prefectures and counties.
Therefore, local officials can almost always be informed of important national events as soon as possible.
“I wonder if there has been any new progress recently in the case of the Lu family’s murderous house that has been hotly debated across the country,” he thought in his mind while flipping through the house newspaper, “The reward of five thousand meritorious services, and the The top-grade spells look really eye-catching!
“Oh, it would be great if all these rewards were mine.
"With these meritorious deeds, maybe I can improve my cultivation to a greater level - wait until then, let's see if that damn tigress still dares to be arrogant."
That's it. At this moment, he saw at a glance a clear line of large characters written on the front page of the Di newspaper:
"The case of Lu's haunted house has been solved."
Cui Tianyou suddenly opened his eyes wide.
He knew that the case of Lu's haunted house was not an ordinary haunting incident.
According to rumors, the ghost in the abandoned old house is powerful and cunning - it is good at hiding its true identity with illusions, and can make people fall into traps silently and lose their way.
If Cui Tianyou remembers correctly, yesterday's newspaper still wrote that "the case is confusing and there is no progress."
How could it be solved so easily in just one night?
This sounds too incredible!
"Who is the person who solved this case? How could it be so amazingly efficient?" Cui Tianyou silently guessed in his heart, "Could it be a saint who took action?"
However, just In the next second, Cui Tianyou knew the answer to this question.
I saw him looking at the very familiar name in the newspaper, dumbfounded, feeling as if he was dreaming.
"Gu Xu from the Yishui Exorcism Department... Damn it, is this report fake? How could it be this guy?"
Cui Tianyou clearly remembered that not long ago, Gu Xu was In front of him, I mentioned more than once that "it is important for people to have self-awareness", "don't have unrealistic thoughts", "desires that do not match your own abilities will only make people feel painful", "we are all weak and helpless" "Second-level monks, the case of Lu's Haunted House is too deep, we can't control it, so we better not get involved"...
Thinking of this, Cui Tianyou pinched himself hard and confirmed. I have sobered up.
Then he took a serious look at the Di newspaper and saw that it was stamped with the seal of the Qi court, and the seal also exuded a special aura of true energy - this meant that the Di newspaper was indeed genuine. rather than fake.
"That little bastard Gu Xu is just making a fortune silently!" Cui Tianyou shook his head and couldn't help but sneered, "On the surface, he said no, no, no, but privately he kept silent Make some earth-shattering news!
"Hmph, when he comes back, I must ask him to treat me to dinner at Piaoxianglou! Damn it, how dare you deceive me about my feelings! Let me see if I don't make you poor!"
......
At the same time.
Shi Xiaohan walked briskly towards the small courtyard where Gu Xu lived. She walked with a little bounce, like a little sparrow with fluffy feathers.
The morning sun gently caressed her pretty oval face, making her skin look as smooth and translucent as white porcelain.
The purpose of her trip is simple.
She was going to find Gu Xu for breakfast.
Although the health meals made by Gu Xu were too bland and did not suit her taste, she liked the feeling of sitting face to face with Gu Xu on both sides of the dining table and chatting with him freely.
Soon, she arrived at No. 17, Ping'an Lane, where Gu Xu lived.
Seeing the solemn black door and the steps at the door, she felt a sense of pride in her heart. She couldn't help but think to herself: "Gu Xu's house finally looks a little like what an official of the Qi court should look like." "
She climbed up the steps and knocked lightly on the door.
"Gu Xu, I come to you for dinner again!" She said with a smile.
But Gu Xu did not respond to her, nor did he open the door for her like before.
A moment later, she heard an emotionless voice coming from the door: "My young master is out on business, please leave a message if you have anything."
Shi Xiaohan recognized that the voice belonged to the little book boy that Gu Xu had drawn on the screen using the technique of talisman and seal script.
"Going out to do errands! Going out to do errands again!" The smile on Shi Xiaohan's face suddenly disappeared without a trace, and he stamped his feet depressedly, "That guy really only knows how to do tasks all day long!
“Hey, if you are short of elixirs, just tell me no? Why go to such lengths? ”
Come full of expectations and return full of disappointment.
Shi Xiaohan finally turned around and left, and went back to work in the Exorcism Department unhappy.
However, at this moment, a dark-skinned, short boy holding a newspaper in his hand ran towards Shi Xiaohan happily.
It is Wang Yang, the exorcist department clerk and Gu Xu’s die-hard fan.
I saw him waving the newspaper and saying in a high-spirited manner: "Master Shi, come and read the latest Di newspaper! Brother Gu actually did a big thing outside without telling us! "
"Gu Xu? What is he doing outside?"
When he heard the word "Brother Gu", Shi Xiaohan immediately stepped forward and took two steps at a time. Grabbed the Di newspaper from Wang Yang's hand.
When she saw the contents of the newspaper clearly, she took a deep breath and stood there blankly, unable to believe her eyes.
"'Eradicating the evil spirits in the Lu family's haunted house overnight and solving a serious problem in the Qingzhou Prefecture'...Is this...did he really do this?"
"Of course!" Wang Yang chuckled and said, "This is the imperial newspaper. It is stamped with the imperial seal and cannot be faked."
"Master Shi, do you even doubt Brother Gu's ability?" I have always believed in him! "
"No, I don't doubt it. "Shi Xiaohan said without hesitation.
At the same time, there was something hidden in her heart: The ghosts in Lu's haunted house look so scary. Will he be hurt inside?
