27,27 Ghost Fire(1/3)
Although Chen Tianyu is the owner of Tianyuxuan and has been doing salt business for several generations, he knows nothing about his salt lake.
"I only know that something happened to my grandfather's generation, and it was also a haunted family. What does it have to do with the salt lake?"
Chen Tianyu asked Chen Tong.
Chen Tong smiled and asked, "You are a recipe for salt drying in Tianyuxuan?"
Chen Tianyu nodded, "That's right, there is indeed a strict method for drying Yuxuan salt."
"Have you tried to fish the salt lake water directly and dry it instead of following the recipe?"
Chen Tianyu was stunned and confused, "What?"
"The most important thing in your Yuxuan salt drying recipe is to dry it with water, right?" Chen Tong asked.
Chen Tianyu looked at Chen Tong in surprise, "Senior... how do you know?"
"What's the point of drying over water?" Zhan Zhao asked.
Chen Tianyu thought for a while and told everyone, "That's right. My Tianyuxuan's salt is different from ordinary salt lake salt. It is not just drying the water from the salt lake, but first go to the shallows beside the salt lake to dig salt blocks. There is a circle of white stone beaches around the shallows of the salt lake. The salt dug out is large pieces of milky white crystals. These crystals are dissolved in water and then spread on the white stone beach to dry. The ones that are exposed are Yuxuan salt."
"So what? What's the point?" Zhao Pu didn't quite understand why he was talking about salting.
"I may know..." Shen Mao suddenly raised his hand.
Everyone looked at him, and Chen Tianyu looked at his son in discomfort.
"I have tried to put the salt lake water directly on the windowsill before..." Shen Mao scratched his head, "After the salt water is dry, the salt is transparent."
"Is salt transparent?" Xiao Sizi asked Xiao Liangzi, "Isn't it white?"
Xiaoliangzi scratched his head, "It's white..."
"But melt the transparent salt into the water and then dry it..." Shen Mao clapped his hands, "It's the white salt."
Chen Tianyu stared at his son for a while and asked, "What age did you study these when you were?"
Shen Mao pointed at Xiao Liangzi, and that meaning was about the same age as him.
"No wonder the technique of salt escape can only be used with Yuxuan salt..." Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang spoke at the same time.
Zhao Pu also nodded, "This will make the explanation clear."
Chen Tianyu didn't understand yet, so he went to see his son again.
Shen Mao was even more puzzled, so he held the tea cup and thought that the tea from Kaifeng Mansion was quite delicious.
"Young Master Chen."
At this time, Lord Bao spoke and asked Shen Mao, "Does anyone else know about this in your Shen Mansion?"
Shen Mao thought for a while, "Yes, the old housekeeper, and the mother-in-law who took care of me when she was a child... the maid and servant who played with me."
Chen Tianyu had no choice but to hold his forehead. It was not good to raise his son so cheerful...
"So, Tian Yuxuan's haunted explanation is understandable, right?" Zhan Zhao asked.
Everyone else nodded.
Chen Tianyu frowned and asked, "Do you think it's the people inside me who are doing it?"
The Grand Master nodded with the cup, "President Chen, you really have a ghost in Tianyuxuan, you are an insider."
"Can you think of who it is?" Zhao Pu asked Chen Tianyu and Shen Mao.
The father and son looked at each other and began to scratch their heads.
"The old butler passed away a few years ago."
"My mother-in-law also went home to pick up her grandson."
"Cui'er?"
"Already married."
"Where are those servants?"
"We've all left, we haven't seen each other for a long time."
After some research by Shen’s father and son, everyone found that those who knew about this were all very "ordinary" ordinary people, and it seemed that no one could and did not have the ability to do these things.
Everyone discussed it and thought they could try to start from Kong Yue.
Chen Tong first went to the house to see Mei silently, and the Shen family and his son were also arranged to go to the backyard to rest.
Lord Bao was about to discuss with Zhan Zhao whether to interrogate Kong Yue or ask Zhan Zhao Baiyutang to ask privately.
Before he could speak, the dynasty Ma Han outside ran in.
"Sir, a large number of people from the Jianghu outside Kaifeng Prefecture gathered."
Lord Bao was puzzled, "Gather?"
Zhan Zhao stood up and said, "I'll go and have a look."
Bai Yutang also wanted to go out to see it, but Zhan Zhao waved his hand and signaled him to go by himself to see the situation first.
Bai Yutang looked back at Tianzun. Tianzun nodded, and the fifth master still followed Zhan Zhao out.
Zhan Zhao asked him after leaving the yard, "Is it okay for you to follow me? Later, those gangs of gangs of gangs were looking for trouble and said that you were the Tianshan faction to help the government."
Bai Yutang shook his head, "No, my Tianshan Sect helps the Demon Palace."
Zhan Zhao made him amused. He was chatting, and Lin Yehuo ran up behind him.
Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao both saw him, that's what it means - do you want to get into it too?
Lin Yehuo patted his chest, "I bought a house in Kaifeng! From then on, my Huofeng Hall will also have a name in the Central Plains martial arts world!"
The three of them walked to the door, and Zhao Pu ran behind them.
The three of them looked at him speechlessly - are you here too?
Zhao Pu spread his hands - no one stopped the uncle!
Behind Zhao Pu, the curious Gongsun also ran over with Xiao Sizi and Xiao Liangzi's hands... To be precise, Mr. Gongsun was pulled out by two children.
Ziying and Zheying had just arrived at the door to see the situation and came back to tell everyone, "It was mainly brought by the people from Sanyuezhai, and the ancestor Zheyue."
"Picking the Moon?" Lin Yehuo was surprised, "The old man is here to the Central Plains? Is this here to ask Kong Yue?"
Zhan Zhao was not very familiar with Zhaiyue, but seeing that Bai Yutang and Zhao Pu both frowned at the same time. In addition, Zhaiyue's fame, no matter what Kong Yue is doing, but this old man is definitely not easy to deal with.
"The ancestor Zhaiyue is so famous, he is loyal and treacherous?" Zhan Zhao asked.
"The key is not his loyal and treacherous." Zhao Pu whispered, "Zaiyue Ancestor Zhaiyue is good at illusion and has deep internal strength. Kaifeng Prefecture is located in the downtown city of the imperial city. They are rushing to the door one by one, and there will definitely be many people watching."
"Can he still hurt innocent people?" Zhan Zhao was dissatisfied, "Don't want to live?"
"Zaiyue's martial arts are not easy to control. If you accidentally, you may really hurt innocent people." Bai Yutang also felt that it was inappropriate, "Do you know why he is called Zaiyue?"
Zhan Zhao shook his head.
"Zheyue can influence a person through illusion and internal force. If the person is hit, he will not feel it. However, when he falls asleep at night, he will get confused and climb to a high place, feeling that he can pick the moon, but he usually falls from a high place and dies."
Zhan Zhao thought he hadn't been in the world for too long, "I haven't heard of it at all..."
"Not surprising, Zhaiyue is very low-key and rarely appears in the Central Plains martial arts world." Huo Feng added, "The monk told me that there is a reason why he dared not come to Central Plains."
"What's the reason?" Bai Yutang also asked, "My master has never told me the details."
Lin Yehuo opened his mouth and sighed, "The monk didn't mention the details either."
When Gongsun saw that several people had started discussing, he asked, "Aren't half of the people around the yamen very noisy? Why is there no sound?"
Zhan Zhao also felt that it seemed very quiet.
"Don't worry about these guys, go out and have a look first." After that, Zhan Zhao went out.
Bai Yutang, Lin Yehuo and Zhao Pu all went out.
Gongsun Zheng hesitated whether to take Xiao Sizi out to see him. Xiao Sizi suddenly raised his face and called him, "Dad."
"Hmm?" Gongsun squatted down to look at him.
Xiao Liangzi had already run to the door, but when he heard Xiao Sizi talking, he stopped and looked back.
The little fourth son held Gongsun's hand and said, "Dad, I just saw a picture."
Gongsun held his son's face and asked, "Is it scary?"
The little Sizi nodded.
"Tell Dad? Or go in and ask the Demon King?"
Xiao Sizi thought for a while, "Dad, I just said that I had picked the moon and fell down..."
Gongsun nodded.
Xiao Liangzi also ran back.
"I saw many people climbing up the mountain, then stretching out their hands as if they wanted to get something, but they all fell off the cliff." Xiao Sizi recalled, "Many people are crazy about losing their hearts."
"Did all those people fall to death?" Xiao Liang asked.
