Just as the head of the Zhang family was pondering, a man in white pushed open the door and walked in, dressed in a scholar's uniform, with a sparse beard under his jaw, and a sly smile on his face.
"I happened to be passing by the door, and I listened to it. I wonder if you two are interested in listening to me?"
Seeing this person, the master of the Zhang family was overjoyed, asked the scribe in white to sit down, and cupped his hands: "I wonder what Mr. Fan taught me?"
This white-clothed scribe, called Fan Ji, repeatedly missed the mark, so he went out to relax. Currently living in the Zhang family temporarily, he is one of the disciples supported by the Zhang family.
Fan Ji stroked his beard and said with a smile: "This matter is not complicated, just a little bit of combing will make it clear. That Lingfengzi is holding onto the Ye family's situation, and has a posture of asking for guilt. We have something to do with it, so we also got into trouble and got framed. There are two things we need to do now. One is to clean up our relationship with this Taoist woman, claiming that we were only deceived and didn’t know her past origins. It's just that this person took a fancy to me Zhang Jiakang and took the initiative to come to the door to get help, and the second is to show that my Zhang family has never harmed anyone, so that other aristocratic families believe."
"Not bad." The Zhang family head nodded.
Fan Ji said slowly: "There are only a few ways to do it, one is to watch over this woman and let her fight in public three days later, the other is to directly tie her up and hand over her, the third is to kill her to silence her, and the fourth is to let her escape. The only concern is the consequences of these four practices."
"That's right." The Zhang family's patriarch nodded.
Fan Ji smiled and stretched out a finger: "I'll tell the owner... If we take the first approach and let her fight on the stage, her victory or defeat is meaningless to me, and the most important thing is whether she is not. She really knows sorcery. It's good if she doesn't know, and I don't have to do anything, but if she is not wronged and exposed in public, the Zhang family will even be devastated. Apologies, that's also limited.
The common people may be able to believe it, but who will not play in the scene with powerful families, dignitaries and dignitaries? If an apology can clear up suspicion, then things in this world are too simple. And that Lingfengzi has the right to walk in the body, and will not let it go, so I don't need to bet on whether this female Taoist is wronged, I guess what people say is true. "
The head of the Zhang family nodded again and again: "I think so too."
Fan Ji didn't talk to himself, he said to himself: "If you use the second method, you will be strong first, tying the female Taoist to the official, claiming that we have been deceived, it seems to be clear, but it seems deliberate. After she finished talking, we grabbed her on the back. It seemed like we knew it for a long time. It made people think whether they wanted to break their tails to survive... This is just a small matter. The most fearful thing is that the Taoist woman holds grudges and slanders me that the Zhang family is indeed colluding with her. Man, that is really unclear, so we are not suitable to start with that female Taoist.
The same is true for the third method. Although we are not afraid of being slandered, others will only kill us because we are guilty of our conscience. On the contrary, it seems that the harmful things are real and cause jealousy. "
Zhang Wentao's eyes lit up next to him: "So, Mr. Fan agrees to let the Taoist woman leave?"
"Not all of them." Fan Ji said with a half-smiling smile, "You are in the game, and you only think about the Zhang family's relationship, but you forget that the woman who is most worried now... If she is really a demon, she will never sit still, even if If we don't let her escape, she will definitely do it in the next three days."
The Zhang family's patriarch asked, "But that Lingfengzi asked me, the Zhang family, to strictly watch over that person... I wonder what the master's plan is?"
"There is no strategy, just some simple methods."
Fan Ji waved his hand and said with a smile:
"Patriarch doesn't need to worry about Lingfengzi's accountability, because we don't play the role of letting go of the female Taoist. In my opinion, as long as we don't send people to look after the female Taoist, she will find an opportunity to escape on her own, and we will relax on the outside and tighten on the inside. Forcing this female Taoist into danger, letting her hurt people, causing people to lose their lives, doing fake dramas, and making the matter bigger. In this way, it seems that the Zhang family has not neglected their protection, but they did not expect this female Taoist. It was so amazing that when she broke through and fled, the Zhang family immediately sent people to the Ye family to ask Lingfengzi to apologize. We lost a few lives, and Lingfengzi couldn't be more aggressive, and at the same time, he used a few lives to clean up. Our relationship with the Taoist woman shows that we are not the same."
Hearing this, the two looked at each other.
"But... if people are killed, my Zhang family..." The Zhang family's patriarch hesitated.
"Haha, the head of the family is thinking too much. It's not the Zhang family, but the servants and nurses. It's better to kill one or two stewards who have given surnames to win the trust of others." Fan Jiyu smiled.
Zhang Wentao couldn't help but said, "Sir, it sounds good at first, but it's just a bit taken for granted. How can we ensure that this female Taoist kills people's lives? What if the female Taoist doesn't escape?"
"It's enough to make some simple arrangements... If that female Taoist really failed to escape in the end, then it would appear that the Zhang family had done a good job in taking care of her. With this incident, even if she showed her sorcerer methods, my Zhang family would have their own way of saying it. With the qualifications to win the trust of others, you are no longer passive like you are now... Remember, as long as this female Taoist takes the initiative and causes death, the Zhang family will be able to get rid of most of the relationship."
Fan Ji's tone was not in a hurry.
The head of the Zhang family and Zhang Wentao looked at each other, saw the movement in each other's eyes, and lowered their heads to discuss.
In a place that no one could see, a ghostly creature in the shape of a baby girl followed Zhang Wentao's feet and listened to the words of the few people.
After listening for a while, the ghost quietly left through the wall, wandered all the way, and returned to the bamboo hut.
Mei Zhanqing opened her eyes and took out a sachet from her arms.
This sachet is black and red, with a bunch of weird tadpole pictures drawn on it, and a bunch of ghost-like talisman paper attached to it, but it is a spiritual bag used to raise ghosts.
She opened the spirit bag and sucked the ghost back, while rubbing the bag, her eyes flashed:
"It turned out to be the plan... Hmph, it's good for me, I can take the opportunity to act cheaply."
…
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
The fact that Wei Zifu and lay Buddhist Xuanxin are about to take the stage to fight the law has spread all over the market, arousing the interest of the people of Ningtian Prefecture, and everyone is talking about it in the streets and alleys.
In the city, workers rushed to build a high wooden platform, which was used as a place for fighting, and countless people were waiting to watch the fun tomorrow.
However, just the day before the fight, something happened.
The family members of the Zhang Family Nursing Academy came out in full force and searched the streets for layman Xuanxin, and the people on the street were stunned to know that the female Taoist had escaped from the battle, killing and injuring many servants of the Zhang family who were besieged and blocked, and was fleeing in the city at the moment.
The Zhang family sued the official, and the government immediately dispatched officers all over the city to arrest him.
This change caused an uproar in the market, and many people were in danger, and quickly closed their doors, for fear of being called to the door.
At the same time, Zhang Wentao came to visit Zhou Jing with a group of servants, carrying more than a dozen corpses covered by straw mats, and immediately alarmed the Ye family.
In the hall, Zhou Jing, Wei Zifu, Ye Taigong, Ye Shunzhong and others gathered together to watch the Zhang family move in with a dozen or so horrified and black-faced corpses.
"Zhenzhen! You have to decide for us! I will follow Zhenren's instructions and strictly take care of the lay Buddhist Xuanxin, but I never imagined that she would actually hurt people and use evil methods to kill several nursing homes in my Zhang family. I was chased and intercepted, but she was finally able to break through. I waited until I found out that layman Xuanxin was really a demon, and he was deceived by her for a while, thinking that she was a master of the Tao, otherwise how could she be allowed to live in my Zhang's house mansion?"
Zhang Wentao's expression was agitated, tears streaming down his face, a tone of remorse.
Wei Zifu went forward with a frown, looked over a dozen corpses, and said solemnly:
"These people have been attacked by ghosts and ghosts, and they have been planted with corpse poison. Quickly burn them, or else they will turn into corpses... Damn, that demon actually dares to harm people!"
As he said that, he took out a stack of talisman papers from his arms and stuck them on the foreheads of the corpses one by one, reciting the mantra, and his business was quite proficient.
Zhou Jing looked at the corpses, and then at Zhang Wentao, who was expressing his grief, with a subtle look in his eyes.
But in the end, he still didn't say anything else, nodded and said: "You don't believe what I said earlier, you have this catastrophe, and it really hurts the poor."
"I regret not listening to the real person! The real person is so piercing, I am so ashamed that I have come here to plead guilty and ask the real person to punish!" Zhang Wentao beat his chest and paused.
tsxsw.la
"Your Zhang family has done your best, and there are many casualties, so how can you punish me?" Zhou Jing shook his head, then looked at Grandpa Ye and asked, "What do you think of the old lady?"
Ye Taigong sighed: "Alas... It seems that the Zhang family has also been deceived. The most urgent task is to find this demon first and then talk about it."
When Zhang Wentao heard the words, he hurriedly said, "That's right, I also wanted to ask Master Yufeng to help me capture the Yaodao for the Zhang and Ye families!"
Wei Zifu, who was beside him, raised his head and suggested eagerly: "This demon is running around in the city. In order to escape, I don't know what will happen. We must catch it as soon as possible, and ask the real person to help."
Hearing the words, Zhou Jing stood up, nodded and said: "The words are reasonable, and the poor can't just sit back and watch, I originally thought that the two of you would fight in public, so that the people of Ningtian Mansion could see that this person is really a demon, I didn't expect that she is now Unable to hold her breath, she discovered a sorcerer, and she has already established her origins, so the poor Daoist will arrest her."
"It is a blessing for Ning Tianfu to have a real person, and to have a real person in charge."
Zhang Wentao quickly sent a flattery.
Zhou Jing's expression did not change, but his heart was turning.
Most of the inside story is tricky, but after thinking about it, he decided to turn a blind eye, not to investigate further, and just take it as it is.
The Zhang family took the initiative to present the evidence of the sorcery he wanted, and at the same time, he threw his life away, and even went to the door to plead guilty in public.
His move was not to deal with the Zhang family, it was just a reason to take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble. Now that the goal has been achieved, if he continues to be aggressive as an outsider, he will simply add to his block. After all, he had only been in Ningtian Mansion for less than a month, and he was not qualified to use the local rich and powerful family to kill chickens and set an example.
Bill's current route still needs to follow some rules... Unlike Chen Feng, who is lawless, if he flips the table, he flips the table, and everyone doesn't eat.
Zhou Jing thought about this, no longer delayed, and left the Ye family with everyone.
Wei Zifu started the Qi watching technique, but found that there were many traces of yin and evil qi, which were difficult to distinguish. He gritted his teeth and said angrily:
"This Mei Zhanqing has a vicious heart, and must be using evil methods on ordinary people to confuse people. The streets and alleys in the city are intricate, so that Pindao can't track her for a while! She has walked away from Pindao many times before. Use this trick!"
"How about that?" Zhang Wentao hurriedly spoke up whether he understood it or not.
"The poor road can only be checked one by one..."
Wei Zifu had nothing to do.
Zhou Jing shook his head:
"Don't be so troublesome."
After all, he rose from the wind, swayed up, flew higher and higher, overlooked in the sky, and activated element vision.
The dark evil spirits appeared everywhere, and the location was unobstructed.
Like a kite, Zhou Jing flew over Ningtian Mansion. After a simple screening, he ruled out most of the options, and saw Mei Zhanqing's whereabouts.
This demonic path is taking care of the road, and naturally wants to leave the city. It is unlikely that it will delay time in a large circle, so most of these confusing sorcery breaths are done by the way, so that the trace of Mei Zhanqing can be seen.
I saw that these traces looked like an arrow, pointing directly to Ximen Ferry outside Ningtian Mansion, which was the ferry where Zhou Jing stepped on the river and entered Ningtian.
- Most of this demonic path wants to take the waterway and go down the river by boat, which is difficult to track.
'Got you… '
Zhou Jing's eyes flickered, locking on one of the evil spirits, and the whole person flew into the air.
Wei Zifu and others below quickly chased Zhou Jing on the ground.
