011: It shouldn’t be possible for officials to catch ghosts, right?
The next day, news came out from the Zhenbei Hou Mansion that the second young master had died of a sudden illness.
When Chu Shuo learned the reason, he just sighed a few times.
He rarely became serious, and his face was gloomy: "The Marquis of Zhenbei only has two sons. I want the Marquis of Zhenbei to have no heirs."
Nan Li was sorting out the yellow paper, with a hint of surprise in her eyes: "Second brother, it turns out that you are not only good at spending money, but you also have a very bright mind sometimes."
Chu Shuo pouted, "Doing business also requires brains, Sixth Sister, don't underestimate me."
"Since you have this suspicion, you should inform Prince Xie and Marquis Zhenbei," Nan Li said, "so that they can take precautions."
"Don't worry, Beihan is as smart as me." Chu Shuo was not worried.
Now that the enemy has been alerted, that person will not resort to any dirty tricks in the short term.
I just don’t know who the Zhenbei Houfu has offended, so that that person is so cruel and wants Zhenbeihou to die without a child.
Chu Shuo went back to his yard to look at the account books, and Nan Li drew the talisman and seal script.
Drawing talismans requires meditation. Different patterns of talismans have different effects. The level of the person who draws the talismans will also affect the effect of the talismans.
So after an hour, small beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
As soon as she wiped off her sweat, Mrs. Shen came in with refreshments, "Li'er, come here and have some refreshments. You've gone home now, so you don't have to be so tired."
As she spoke, her eyes were a little moist.
My daughter suffered a lot in the Xu family, and when she arrived at Xuanyue Temple, she had to run around a lot.
"Mom, I'm not tired." Nan Li cleaned her hands, went over and took Shen to sit down together.
The refreshments are made by Shen herself and are sweet and delicious.
Nan Li ate several pieces in one bite.
Mrs. Shen was satisfied when she saw her daughter eating and drinking.
"You still like to eat red date cake as before."
Of the cakes on the plate, Nanli ate the red date cake the most.
Nan Li was slightly startled and said, "Did I also like to eat it when I was a child?"
Mrs. Shen nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, you didn't like to eat before, and you kept clamoring for red date cakes all day long."
Nan Li's memory of her childhood was already very vague, and before she thought much about it, she saw that Shen's face was a little haggard, and her eyes were seriously black and blue.
She couldn't help but ask: "Mom, are you prone to headaches and tinnitus recently, and you always have trouble sleeping at night?"
Mrs. Shen was a little surprised: "Yes, how do you know?"
"Look at your face." Nan Li casually felt Shen's pulse, "My mother has been depressed for many years and her energy and blood are blocked. I think it's because I was lost."
Mrs. Shen nodded with red eyes, "Yes, when I thought of you before, I couldn't sleep all night. Even now that you are back, I sometimes fear that this is just a sweet dream."
Nan Li grabbed Shen's hand and let her feel the temperature of her palm, "It's not a dream, my daughter is back. Let me make some elixirs for my mother to relieve depression. She will take it every day and she will get better soon."
"
Mrs. Shen only felt that God was kind to her. Not only did she get her daughter back, but she was also so sensible.
If you want to buy medicinal materials, of course you have to go to Aunt Qian's pharmacy.
Nan Li went to find Chu Shuo to go out with him, but he looked hurriedly and said, "Let Mrs. Zhang lead the way. Someone in Chunxi Tower has smashed the store. I have to go and take a look."
Chunxi Tower is also the property of Aunt Qian. It is one of the five major restaurants in Kyoto. It can be said that the money is made every day.
The store was suddenly smashed, and the business for the past few days was no longer possible. The loss was not small.
Nan Li thought it was someone making trouble and didn't pay attention.
Mrs. Zhang took her to Qian's Pharmacy to buy medicinal materials, but who knew that they were closed to no business.
Because Mrs. Zhang was Aunt Qian's dowry and was acquainted with the drug store owner, she went down to ask about it and found out that something had happened to the drug store as well.
"Sixth Miss, someone went into the medicine shop in the middle of the night and poured water on it. The medicinal materials were soaked in water and cannot be sold. Why don't we go to another store?" Mrs. Zhang said.
"The store in Chunxi Tower was smashed and water was poured here. Could it be the same group of people?" Nan Li asked.
Mrs. Zhang frowned and sighed: "My aunt has already reported to the police, but even if someone is caught, the loss will be heavy."
Nan Li lifted up the car curtain and took a look, only to see a faint ghost spirit floating out of the drug store. She smiled faintly: "The official is good at catching people, but he shouldn't be good at catching ghosts."
"What?" Mrs. Zhang trembled, "Is this haunted?"
"Well, let's go to Chunxi Tower and have a look." Nan Li already had a suspect in mind, but she still had to be sure.
The coachman heard the order and rushed to Chunxi Tower.
Mrs. Zhang looked at Nan Li and saw that she was young, wearing a light green skirt, her bun was still tied up with a wooden hairpin, and she had a small cloth bag slung across her body. She did not look like a wealthy lady at all.
Looking at it like this, he really looks like a ghost hunter.
"Can Miss Six also catch ghosts?" Mrs. Zhang asked cautiously.
Nan Li said modestly: "I understand a little bit."
After hearing this, Mrs. Zhang couldn't help but feel a little worried.
After all, Miss Six is too young. If she encounters an evil spirit, how can she survive it?
Soon we arrived at Chunxi Tower.
Aunt Qian and Chu Shuo are both here, so even if there are officials handling the case, Nan Li can go in.
As soon as she entered the restaurant, she felt the coldness.
Many tables, stools, bowls, chopsticks, and cups were smashed to pieces, and the ground was a mess.
Not just the first floor, but also the two floors above.
It will be renovated and some new tables, stools, bowls and chopsticks will be purchased, which will cost tens of thousands taels at least.
Not to mention that other stores also suffered heavy losses.
Aunt Qian's eyes turned red from crying and she asked the official to find the person.
The leading officer, whose surname was Chen, said: "The ones who smashed the store must be a few Qinggong masters. Only the window on the third floor was left open. That's where they came in."
The windows on the second floor and the door on the first floor were locked, and there was no sign of them being opened.
"No, they drifted in." Nan Li retorted.
The three of them were stunned.
float?
How to float?
Chu Shuo finally reacted and said, "You mean it's haunted?"
"Exactly." Nan Li nodded solemnly.
Capt. Chen held on to the hilt of the knife at his waist and laughed loudly: "It's haunted? Where does this little bastard dare to obstruct the work here!"
Chu Shuo immediately protected her and said: "Chen Captou, this is my sixth sister. She is not a magic stick, she is the famous Xuanyue Temple... Chu Tianshi!"
Chen Captou was stunned again. If it weren't for the fact that this was the young master of the Hou Mansion, he would have laughed at their brains.
How can a little girl be called a Heavenly Master?
He said to Aunt Qian: "We will try our best to investigate this case. Aunt Qian should take them back home."
Nan Li looked directly at him and said: "No matter how much you investigate, it will be in vain. I can lead you to find the real prisoner."
Chen Captou endured his anger and said coldly: "Sixth Miss, you should go home and embroider and play the piano instead of talking nonsense."
After that, he turned around and left.
"Since it's ghosts causing trouble, what should we do?"
Chen Captou didn't believe it, but Aunt Qian believed it 100%.
