When Tan Baoan entered the courtyard, he was stunned when he saw Uncle Jiu and Li Chengyu in the yard. He didn't expect that someone would come to Old Chen so early in the morning.
As the host, Li Chengyu took a step forward and was about to introduce Uncle Jiu to Tan Baoan when he saw Tan Baoan suddenly realize something and he clasped his hands.
"This must be Master Jiu, right? I often hear people mention Master Jiu's name. Everyone praises him for his sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and his upright character. Today I see that he is indeed worthy of his reputation!"
Ninth Master
Russell's expression was particularly strange. He should just be Uncle Nine, but why did he call him Master Jiu? Why did it feel weird
As for how Tan Baoan recognized Uncle Jiu, was it really because he had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes and was full of righteousness
That's bullshit.
There was a murder in the Li Mansion, and there was only one person in the entire Renjia Town who could have the owner of the Li Mansion accompany him and who was wearing a Taoist robe.
Uncle Nine!
Just flatter him, he will definitely be a good person!
Although Uncle Jiu remained calm on the surface, he was actually a little happy in his heart. What is this called? Even though the person is not in the world, there are rumors about him in that world.
"Overrated, overrated."
Uncle Jiu bowed in return, "I see that your age is not much different from mine, so just call me Uncle Jiu."
"Okay, Master Jiu!"
Tan Baoan was not shy at all. He came over directly and said mysteriously, "Master Jiu, I know who the murderer is. It's Erxianqiao. He must have become a spirit."
“Puff!”
Uncle Nine was so embarrassed that Russell couldn't help but burst out laughing. His reasoning ability is definitely on par with that of Kogoro Mouri.
He is simply a complete layman.
Whether in mythology, strange stories, or novels, Russell had never heard of a bridge becoming a spirit and wanting to harm people.
A bridge is built there, and thousands of people walk over it, and tens of thousands of people walk over it. It stands firm in wind and rain, and it is a great merit in itself.
Although it is not easy to give birth to intelligence, once it is there, it is basically good and will naturally not do anything that is harmful to others.
Erxianqiao harms people
It's like a beggar watching out for a billionaire stealing his meal scraps.
I wonder how much resentment Tan Baoan has towards Erxian Bridge when he thinks this way.
Is it because of the last time he fell into the water
Russell couldn't help but think of the last time he met Tan Baoan. It was obvious that the ball-kicking ghost was doing whatever he wanted and wanted to hurt people, but Tan Baoan wanted to beg for mercy, which made Russell a little angry.
He let the opera ghost wipe out his memory and threw him into the small river under Erxian Bridge to sober him up.
Not only was he unharmed, but he turned a disaster into a blessing as he pulled out a big fish from his crotch, which turned out to be delicious fish soup!
Is there such a big resentment
Russell couldn't figure it out for a moment.
"cough!"
Uncle Jiu coughed dryly. He was most afraid of these amateurs who seemed to understand something but didn't. What they said could make people laugh to death.
"I have to see Lao Chen to make a decision on this matter. Everything has a basis. Don't speak carelessly. There will be retribution."
Tan Baoan was so scared that he immediately covered his mouth. He had a grudge against Erxianqiao, mainly because he fell into the water that day. For some reason, his sex skills were no longer as good as before.
This made his wife very angry, and she suspected that he was making an excuse to go to Yihongyuan.
Officer Tan was speechless. Let alone women, he had never even encountered a female ghost. What puzzled him even more was that he didn't know why he felt so weak.
Fortunately, after two days of rest, I recovered.
Otherwise, there will be some noise at home.
"Chengyu!" Uncle Jiu looked at Li Chengyu who was standing beside him, "Open the door, let me see how Old Chen is doing."
He no longer wanted to talk to Tan Baoan, for fear that Tan Baoan would say something shocking again.
Li Chengyu was also quick and nimble. He took out the key and poked it in. With a click, the door opened.
Uncle Jiu just walked in.
Tan Baoan instantly forgot what he wanted to say and could only follow him in. If the case was not solved, he would really have to go home and sell sweet potatoes.
As soon as he entered the room, he saw that the night watchman, Old Chen, who used to be full of energy, was now acting crazy, with cloudy eyes, as if he had suffered a great blow.
Tan Baoan swallowed his saliva. He had heard that Old Chen had hit a ghost car and his soul was taken away by the car.
He was considered lucky. The cook from the Li family was so shocked that he lost his soul and died on the spot. Even the coroner with many years of experience shook his head and could not find any wound.
Although Tan Baoan considered himself to be highly skilled in martial arts and could easily keep three or five people away from him, he still felt a little scared when he encountered such a strange thing.
Uncle Jiu didn't shy away from it. Instead, he felt that the ghosts would possess him faster and everything would be more auspicious!
Just put up a talisman, pull it and the problem will be solved.
But now it’s not much more troublesome than being possessed by ghosts!
Uncle Jiu looked quietly at the somewhat crazy Old Chen, his brows beginning to frown. Old Chen spoke clearly and logically, and he did not seem to be demented. Instead, it seemed as if he had seen something he should not have seen.
Really
Uncle Jiu reached out and grabbed Old Chen's wrist, but he was like a dead body, allowing himself to be manipulated without any reaction.
As soon as he took the pulse with his fingers, Uncle Jiu's face changed immediately and he had the answer in his mind.
Man-made disaster!
"Master Jiu! What's the explanation?" Tan Baoan was extremely nervous. This was not just a simple matter of selling sweet potatoes.
He lost his job and couldn’t even climb into his wife’s bed at night.
Uncle Jiu didn't say anything. He stretched out his thumb. His long nail seemed quite sharp. He scratched the middle finger and a line of blood flowed out.
He placed his finger to Old Chen's mouth.
Everyone held their breath, not daring to make a single breath.
Although they didn't understand what was going on, they felt it was very serious.
Russell's eyes widened. This familiar scene seemed so familiar. This was clearly the witchcraft in urban novels!
According to legend, this technique originated from Miaojiang, and is mostly used to punish scumbag men.
Really
Russell made up a lot of plots in his mind. Xiaohong from Yihongyuan was a Miao. Old Chen fell in love with her and they agreed to elope together.
As a result, Old Chen saved enough money and went to find other girls. Xiaohong was so angry that she cast a witchcraft on him.
Eeyore!
Old Chen, I thought you looked honest, but I didn't expect you to be such a dishonest person.
Ugh!
Scumbag!
On the other side, Uncle Jiu also reacted. He moved his fingers quickly and pinched Old Chen's nose. He then put his little finger into his mouth, and a blood-red worm came out.
It really is witchcraft!
Everyone looked at the blood-red color, which seemed particularly weird, and were so scared that they dared not say a word.
"Russell, go!"
Uncle Jiu held the bug in one hand, waved his other hand, and took Russell away. Tan Baoan, who was standing by, became anxious.
"Master Jiu, please take me with you. I am also a martial arts expert. Three or five people cannot get close to me."
Uncle Jiu was a little hesitant.
Another person at the side spoke up. He came with Tan Baoan.
"Uncle Jiu, just take him with you. The man named Tan is a well-known thug in the martial arts world!"
The dark force in the martial arts world
The man chuckled, "The man with the surname Tan is called Tan Black Hand and Tan Three Moves, because he likes to use dirty tricks when fighting, and he only knows those three moves."
"The monkey steals peaches, the black tiger digs out hearts and pokes out eyes!"
"When fighting, he only attacks the other person's lower body, even more scoundrel than those hooligans!"
Everyone couldn't help laughing and looked at Tan Baoan with strange eyes. They didn't expect that such a handsome and honest man could be so cruel.
Tan Baoan's face turned red. "Don't talk nonsense and slander others' innocence, Eunuch Ma!"
Eunuch Ma is a master of martial arts. If he doesn't take action, it's fine. But once he takes action, it's as fast as lightning and everyone will lose everything, and the man will kneel down and become a eunuch.
Therefore, people called him Eunuch Ma.
