The old magic stick began to recall.
"It must have been decades ago. At that time, the old Taoist was not the Chen Daxian loved by the old people in the countryside, but just a fledgling Chen Banxian."
Even when the old god stick recalled, he didn't forget to brag about himself.
"At that time, not long after the liberation of the whole country, the whole country was in full swing to overthrow all ghosts and snakes, so at that time, it was also the time when the most messy ghosts and snakes were making trouble..."
"Old Daoist, I still clearly remember that that year, there was a heavy snowstorm in the north, and the white snow particles kept flying for several months. The snow was pressed into the ground in a thick layer. Freezing, think about it, in this extreme weather, what kind of crops can be planted in the field, what is planted will die."
"Hey, that era was really difficult."
"Old Dao, I have been traveling all over the world since I was a child. That year, I happened to pass a small town. It was so cold that even dogs were disgusted. I couldn't even see a dog on the street. I was trying to get a bowl of hot food. Soup to drink, so fortune-telling for people."
Fangzheng glanced at the old magic stick in surprise.
It turns out that the old magic stick has been walking around the world since he was a child, deceiving people, and this is an old man with rich experience in deception.
I have been fat since I was a child.
No wonder he dared to compete with the wild monks and witches in the countryside for business.
The old god stick continued to recall: "But in that year of snow disaster, everyone was in danger, who would care about a fledgling Taoist priest, just when I was about to freeze to death on the street, there was a little face that was red from the cold. Thin from hunger, the skinny little baby, gave me a bowl of hot soup."
"Of course I can't take advantage of the child. I just want to calculate the fortune of the child's life. Even if the secret is leaked, I am willing to bear it alone. This is the blessing that the child deserves."
"But don't worry about the little boy's luck, I just hope that the old man can help him find his father who has gone out to borrow food for three or four days and hasn't returned... Sigh, I didn't know until that time that there are three more people in the little boy's house." The two younger siblings suffered from hunger and cold, and lost their mother since they were young. Only a father who was a carpenter raised the children. Seeing that there was no way to survive in the town, the father of these children decided to go to the children's mother's house in the countryside. , to lend some food to a few children, the countryside is surrounded by mountains, nature is rich in supplies, and maybe there is still a little food in reserve.”
Speaking of this, the old god stick sighed.
"I am an old man who hates suffering in life the most. In order to repay that kind little baby with a bowl of hot soup, I agreed on the spot."
The old magic stick's voice suddenly paused, and he sneered: "But little brother, guess what happened later?"
"The missing people in the town are not only the fathers of the little babies, but all the people in the town who went to the countryside to borrow food and find ways to survive, all of them disappeared, and no one came back. People say that those People have frozen to death in the snow halfway before reaching the village."
"But since I promised those little dolls, I will help them find their fathers. If they are born, they want to see people, and if they die, they want to see corpses. No matter what, I will go out and look for them."
"Then what happened afterwards? Old Daoist, have you found those missing townspeople?" At this time, Fangzheng and the old magic stick had already walked to the door of Room 502 following the guidance of Fortune Fragrance.
That is Chen Miaoqi's home.
Just at this time, the last embers of the fortune incense in his hand were burned out.
Just as the old magician was about to answer Fang Zheng, he probably heard voices in the corridor. The anti-theft door of the resident next to Room 502 opened a gap, and an aunt in her fifties poked her head out and looked carefully at the corridor.
When he saw Fangzheng and the old god stick standing at the door of room 502, especially when he saw the Taoist robe on the old god stick, the face of the aunt next door unexpectedly lit up with joy.
"Daoist, you, were you invited by Chen Jianbang?"
"Great, Daoist, there are really unclean things in that family's house..."
Unclean things
Fangzheng immediately knew there was something going on.
Chen Jianbang is the full name of Chen Miaoqi's father.
Fangzheng had already learned about Chen Miaoqi's family members from Captain Fei.
So I asked the aunt next door, how did she know there was something unclean? As a result, the other party didn't look at Fangzheng at all, but looked at the old magic stick.
Literati are lighter.
This principle applies no matter where.
In addition, only the old god stick was wearing Taoist robes, which gave people an even more false impression at first glance that the old god stick was the person in charge, and Fang Zheng was just an apprentice or assistant brought out by the master.
Faced with being misunderstood, the old god stick is now embarrassed.
After all, Fang Zheng is the one who decides his salary and year-end bonus.
But fortunately, the old god stick is an old man, and he has cooperated with Fangzheng a lot. Generally speaking, he will be responsible for handling matters that Fangzheng is inconvenient to deal with.
Just like the scene in front of you.
If he wanted to get information, the aunt next door obviously trusted the old magic stick more.
And as long as he can obtain useful information, Fangzheng is definitely not the kind of person who is petty about such small details.
That's why the old god stick, who had a somewhat wretched temperament, immediately transformed into a fairy-tale man. He became an expert, and then began to ask the neighbor's aunt who poked her head out from behind the door for useful information.
But who knows, not long after the aunt next door started talking, a young man's voice came from the room.
"Mom, who is outside the door, and who are you talking to outside the door? Didn't I tell you a long time ago that if you meet a liar who sells insurance or installs doorbells for free at home, just scold them away, there is no need Ink with these liars!"
"Oh, I see. Mom was chatting with your Aunt Lin." The aunt behind the door turned her head and shouted into the room, and then looked at the old magic stick and Fangzheng apologetically.
"Master Daoist, Master Daoist, I'm sorry, my son doesn't like my contact with strangers, I can't tell you too much, but I really didn't exaggerate to lie to you, Chen Jianbang's house...is really messing around !"
It seemed that she was very afraid that someone from Chen Miaoqi's family next door would hear her. The last sentence, the aunt said very softly and carefully, her eyes were a little flustered and scrupulous. Amidst the sound, the aunt slammed the anti-theft door shut.
"Little brother, what should we do now? Do you want me to knock on the door, call out the person, and ask about the matter? Or we just fuck the guy, go straight to Huanglong, and knock on the door of 502?" The old god standing at the door Stick, his nose was almost hit by the anti-theft door, he turned his head to look at Fangzheng a little depressed.
"There is no one on 502 during the day, and no one answers the door when I knock on it."
"Little brother, how do you know?"
"Chen Miaoqi is now at her grandma's house in the country. Chen Miaoqi's father is looking for his son outside during the day, and Chen Miaoqi's mother is missing her and has been hospitalized since she fell ill. Therefore, even at night, Chen Miaoqi's father seldom returns home. Taking care of his sick wife in the hospital. If I'm not mistaken, room 502 has not been popular for a while... "
"If there is no one in 502, tell me, little brother, how do we get in?"
