Yi Jixuan was also curious. Fu Mingrui suddenly came and gave Lian Youyou a painting. This was really strange. He remembered that Fu Mingrui came back last night with this painting in his hand. What was so strange about this painting that the Nine Gates had to investigate
Fu Mingrui nodded and looked at Yi Jixuan: "Please keep what I say from now on confidential, brother-in-law."
Yi Jixuan straightened his expression and said, "Don't worry, Mingrui, I won't tell anyone."
Fu Mingrui spoke out of trust for his in-laws and elder brother, "Yesterday, I received a report from Lord Lin Zhengying, the acting minister of the Ministry of Revenue, saying that one of his doctors, Wang Yi, had disappeared for five days. I then took people to Wang Yi's house, and his servants said that Wang Yi had been admiring this painting in the house before he disappeared, and had not left. I have ordered people to check whether Wang Yi has any enemies in the capital, or which brothel he lingers in, but there is no news yet. But my elder brother told me that this painting is strange and has always accompanied people's unexplained disappearances, so I gave this painting to Miss Lian to verify whether Wang Yi's disappearance is related to this painting."
Lian Youyou nodded and looked at Fu Mingsu: "Master Fu, how did you know these rumors about this painting?"
Fu Mingsu straightened his expression and frowned slightly: "This painting is called "Ao Mei Tu", which is the work of Huangshan Taoist's transformation. Later it disappeared among the people. I found it on the black market and then sold it to Wang Yi. It is said that this painting was always in Huang Ye's bedroom before his death, but later, Huang Ye disappeared mysteriously. It is said that he became a painting fairy."
"Tsk." Lian Youyou chuckled and supported her face with one hand: "Why don't I know a painting fairy named Huang Ye?"
Several men were also startled. What? This Lian Youyou also knows the gods.
The Fat Buddha smiled as if he was used to it. Not to mention that Lian Youyou knew the Painting Fairy, even if Lian Youyou said she knew Patriarch Bodhi, he would believe it without a doubt.
Fu Mingsu was stunned for a moment, then he spoke again: "Later, the painting changed hands several times, but there were rumors that the people who bought it would mysteriously disappear. Later, even the painting disappeared."
Lian Youyou nodded without much expression on her face, and looked at Yi Jixuan: "Now, tell me about this house so that Master Fu can know what happened."
"Okay." Yi Jixuan began to speak, "Our family has always bought tombs. I have already mentioned this to Ming Su and Ming Rui last night. At that time, I also said that the jade pendant on me can determine whether the house in front of me is a tomb. When I entered the house, my jade pendant did not ring, so I picked up a bargain. But today, a white shadow suddenly appeared in that maple forest..." Yi Jixuan pointed to the maple forest in the west.
Fu Mingsui and Fu Mingrui also stretched their necks to look over there. The undulating maple forest and the blue sky and white clouds were extremely beautiful.
"That white shadow didn't look like a human. It moved through the maple forest at a very fast speed. Then, a burst of light created a ghost fog that enveloped the maple forest and scared away today's craftsmen. So, I asked Miss Lian to come and catch ghosts." Yi Jixuan explained everything clearly.
"Catching ghosts... Then this case should belong to the Nine Gates. Why did Miss Lian hand it over to my second brother?" Fu Mingsu looked at Lian Youyou in confusion.
Lian Youyou supported her face with one hand and glanced at the three people: "Because, I am a professional. There is no ghost here, but someone is making trouble. Of course, this ghost must be caught by Master Fu."
When Fu Mingrui looked towards the maple forest, his eyes began to darken. If Lian Youyou said that the ghost was caused by someone, then it must be someone's doing.
"When I walked in, I smelled a smell of sulfur." Lian Youyou began to give Fu Mingrui a hint. Fu Mingrui immediately looked at Lian Youyou: "Sulfur?"
Lian Youyou nodded slowly.
"Why don't I smell it?" Yi Jixuan whispered, sniffing the air.
Fu Mingsu looked confused. "This house is haunted, which is a big legend in Beijing. Ever since Huang Ye disappeared and his family moved out, whenever someone bought this house, it would be haunted. Now, Miss Lian said that this ghost is someone's doing. Why would someone haunt this empty house for so long? This house should have been empty for more than 60 years."
Lian Youyou raised the corner of her mouth and looked at Fu Mingrui with a smile: "Master Fu, based on your professional opinion, why do you think there has been someone messing around in this house?"
Everyone's eyes then turned to Fu Mingrui.
Fu Mingrui frowned and thought deeply: "People are afraid of ghosts. If someone is playing tricks, it must be to prevent people from living in. Such an empty house, not allowing people to live in..." Fu Mingrui stood up and looked around the beautiful house in front of him, "There are many reasons, mainly two. First, there may be treasures buried here..."
"Treasure!" Fu Mingsui and Yi Jixuan's eyes lit up at the same time!
"Two." Fu Mingrui's expression suddenly became serious, his eyes tightened, and he looked back at everyone, "There is a corpse here."
"Corpse!" Immediately, Fu Mingsui and Yi Jixuan felt their scalps tingling and their backs felt cold.
After hearing this, Lian Youyou nodded and stood up: "I'll leave the case here to you, Master Fu. I'll go back and check your paintings."
Fu Mingrui turned around and bowed to Lian Youyou: "Thank you, Miss Lian, be careful."
Lian smiled leisurely, but suddenly leaned over and moved closer to Fu Mingsui. This action made Fu Mingrui and Yi Jixuan stunned.
Fu Mingsu saw Lian Youyou approaching suddenly. Just as he was wondering, Lian Youyou suddenly blew a breath towards him: "Hoo—"
Immediately, a refreshing fragrance with a hint of coolness blew on his face like a spring breeze, and he sat in a daze in this strange fragrance.
When Fu Mingrui saw Lian Youyou suddenly blow the flute to Fu Mingsu, he immediately felt an inexplicable bitterness in his heart. It was like a stone blocking his chest, neither going up nor down, making it difficult for him to breathe.
"Ah!" When Fu Mingsu came back to his senses, he was so frightened that he stood up and stepped back. The small stool behind him fell behind him because of his panic.
Fu Mingsu's huge reaction made Yi Jixuan, who was standing by, a little suspicious. Fu Mingsu and he were both businessmen, and Fu Mingsu was in the official circle, so he should have been in more romantic places than him. How could this woman blowing a fragrant breeze at him make him so flustered
Lian Youyou found Fu Mingsu's expression funny: "Hey, Master Fu, do you think I'm a monster? Why are you so scared?"
Fu Mingsuo's face was already pale, and his heart was still beating fast after he stood firm. He hurriedly bowed and said, "I'm sorry to make you all laugh. I was just a little surprised by Miss Lian's sudden action."
"Miss Lian, please respect yourself." Fu Mingrui said seriously, "Brother is already a married man."
"Tsk." Lian Youyou rolled her eyes at the men who were making a fuss, "You men all see the same thing in women, hum." She rolled her eyes at the men with disdain, took the painting back from Fat Buddha, turned it around, and looked up at Fu Mingsuo, "Fu Mingsuo, did you see this real painting?"
Fu Mingsui was stunned.
Yi Jixuan and Fu Mingrui were confused. (To be continued)
