I originally thought that I had been idle recently, and I was slowly playing with this profiteer Zhao. The first thing I did was play with him, which made him miserable and desperate...
But listening to the conversation between the two people, he really couldn't stand it.
Such a cover-up behavior is completely caused by myself treating everyone as fools.
…
The paper figure with the beauty's face, after completing the murder, quickly jumped into the river, swam like a mermaid, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
It was only then that deafening shouts broke out from the crowd on the shore.
"Oh my God!"
"What was that just now?"
"She is a person, a great beauty."
The people in the melon field were in a commotion again, and some of them were not afraid of death. They came to the shore and looked down, hoping to see the beautiful face again.
Xu Ping was happy to guide public opinion and said, "It should be Boss Zhao and the director who have done some unethical things and received retribution."
"Eh?"
All of a sudden, the crowd reacted immediately.
Judging from the cover-up behavior just now, this Zhao and the unscrupulous director must have done some shameful things secretly.
"After doing all the bad things, God is trying to punish them."
"Uh...God, is she actually a beauty?"
"Hey, that beauty just now appeared from the water and then disappeared from the water... she couldn't be Mazu!"
"Well, it's possible."
The imagination of the people who eat melons is always so rich. They are already imagining the story of Mazu punishing evildoers and benefiting the common people.
Xu Ping was stunned on the spot, "I didn't say anything. If you hear this, Mazu, you can't blame me."
If there was another person on the shore, he was stunned for a long time, and suddenly wanted to laugh again, but the atmosphere was not right, so he pinched his thigh and held back.
The director dies. As the captain of the police station, am I automatically promoted?
Ah Wei felt happy when he thought of this.
"Captain, what should we do now?"
The attendant was asking questions next to Ah Wei. Looking at the angry crowd, he felt a little frightened in his heart.
After all, Awei had been around before. Hearing everyone's discussion, he rolled his eyes and felt reassured.
"Everyone, I am Ah Wei from the police station, your good captain. The two bastards surnamed Zhao and Zhang...Zhang Tiancheng, what on earth did these two bastards do that is so unreasonable? This captain will definitely get to the bottom of it and bring the deceased to justice.
rest in peace."
As he spoke, he took off his hat, bowed his head in silence towards the body on the ground.
No matter what the situation is, since there is no evidence to prove it, pour dirty water on them and the White Lotus Sect, solve the problem perfectly, and your promotion will be just around the corner.
…
Some people are happy and some are sad.
More and more people in the town came after hearing the news. Some of them had husbands working at the dock, and some, like the grandmother, had sons working at the dock.
Those who survived cried with joy, and those who found the body shed tears.
Xu Ping believed that he was not a god, but he had tried his best. Looking at the crying crowd in front of him, he pondered for a long time and left.
I hope Awei will investigate clearly. It's probably impossible. People can't die for no reason.
There were so many corpses at the Longchuanjiang Pier that the clean-up work took a full day.
When Uncle Jiu came, Xu Ping had already gone back and just missed him.
Several truckloads of corpses were delivered to Yizhuang, but Uncle Jiu was very worried. Why were there not so many coffins?
Therefore, Xu Ping received the largest order since the establishment of Xu Ji's coffin shop.
Ah Wei took the lead and Ren Tingting provided the money.
As for the Zhao family...
That night.
A dozen paper figures filed out of the coffin shop.
A nest of hundreds of mice dispersed and ran toward the lights of hundreds of houses in the town.
The paper man went to Zhao's house to collect evidence. He wanted to make the matter public and warn Ah Wei, a wealthy man in the town, who might become the director.
Doing this kind of business will cost you your life.
As for the rats, they were scattered everywhere, especially the inns in the town, to investigate how many White Lotus cultists there were in the town.
No matter what they came for, they must be driven out.
Xu Ping can learn about the happenings in the entire town through the paper-man mice without leaving home.
Zhao Mansion.
The young master and the young mistress died first, leaving no heirs. The master and the housekeeper died later, and there was no one to take care of things. The concubines and concubines in the room felt that something was wrong, and they ran away with Xinruan a long time ago.
Newcomers can only cry and lament their bad fate, not knowing what the future holds.
Shopkeepers from various business interests of the Zhao family gathered together and sat in the living room of the Zhao family. Some smoked, some drank tea, and some snickered.
"hiss……"
The cigarette butt burned his hand. Only then did shopkeeper Li, who looked a bit wealthy, reacted, threw away the cigarette butt in his hand and stepped on it: "Everyone, now that Boss Zhao is gone, what should we do next? We need to get a charter."
He ran a business, and his words had a lot of weight, but he was also paid. In later generations, there was also a professional term, professional manager.
Besides him, there were four other people in the living room, all of whom were in charge of the Zhao family's business.
The person in charge of the freight business was a distant cousin of the Zhao family. At this young age, he had no idea what kind of business was being done on the dock.
He looked left and right, with a stern look on his face, and when he saw that no one said anything, he became a little impatient and said, "Ahem, since no one of you is talking, I have some ideas."
Everyone's eyes immediately turned to him.
"Originally, I had no say in the ranking based on seniority, but among the people here, I am the only one from the Zhao family, so why not..."
Before he finished speaking, someone knew what he was about to fart.
The person in charge of the lumber factory was also a middle-aged man with lumps all over his body. He slammed the table: "You fart, you still want to climb on our heads and dream."
"Then what do you think we should do?"
"I..." The muscular man didn't know how to speak, and turned to shopkeeper Li who was still smoking, "Old Li, you have been following Boss Zhao for the longest time and you are the most capable. Tell me what to do.
?”
Shopkeeper Li looked at the shopkeepers who had worked together for many years. How could he not know what they were thinking? They must be thinking of doing their own thing and being their own boss.
The Zhao family has no other relatives and is basically dead. It is just a cousin who is separated by who knows how many generations and has no say in it.
"Huh..." He blew out a puff of smoke, put out the cigarette butt, and said, "Since the Zhao family is down, why not let's break up!"
Everyone's breath tightened and they all sat up straight. They used to work for others, but now, they can be their own boss.
"Okay!" The Zhao family cousin had a face full of indignation, as if he was dissatisfied. He stood up and started shouting: "You people are secretly dividing up my Zhao family's property. I'm going to the police station to sue you."
"I am also opposed to disbandment."
A man stood up and stood next to him. He was the manager of the freight business and had participated in the construction of the terminal.
Shopkeeper Li raised his eyes and looked at the two of them with a sarcastic look on his face: "You haven't seen clearly the attitude of the people who come to the police station during the day. If you don't break away from the Zhao family quickly, everyone may not be able to get anything, and they will all be arrested."
Seized by the police station.”
The cousin of the Zhao family concealed the excitement in his eyes, looked at each other with the steward next to him, and then said his request: "Well, this house belongs to our Zhao family, no one can touch it, and the things inside can't be touched.
It’s all mine.”
"snort!"
"If you want to take it, it will belong to the official family immediately."
Seeing no one objected, the cousin couldn't help but smile from ear to ear. He was mainly thinking about the contract with the foreigners. With that thing, he could still find another place to earn money if he had money and people.
According to his speculation, it should be placed in the safe of the Zhao Mansion. The safe was embedded in the wall and it was impossible for anyone to move it away.
The two of them just clicked and rushed directly to the room where Boss Zhao lived. The people who stayed behind were still discussing the details of the cooperation. After all, everyone's business was inextricably intertwined and they had to be explained clearly.
As soon as he opened the door, he was stunned.
What about the safe? Where about such a big safe?
There was a hole directly in the wall, and the safe, which was as tall as a person, was completely ripped out of the wall and disappeared.
Who is this quick-witted person? But the other shopkeepers don't know the existence of the contract. After all, not everyone has a conscience.
The cousins of the Zhao family began to analyze on the spot. The aunts and wives couldn't do it, and the servants and maids couldn't do it. Could it be those old men?
Okay, thanks to my acting for a long time, I turned out to be a clown.
As soon as the two of them rushed out of the house, they felt a chill on their necks. Hey, why are there two headless corpses standing in the house? Hey, why are these clothes the same as mine?
I saw two corpses with their necks flattened by sharp blades and vomiting blood, which looked like fountains, not to mention quite pretty.
Hmm? It seems to be me?
The two lost consciousness and fell into endless darkness.
at the same time.
In the living room of the Zhao Mansion, several shopkeepers discussed the direction of future development and all felt that they had a bright future.
"Da da da……"
At this moment, there was a crisp sound of footsteps coming from outside the living room, from far to near, and everyone's hearts tightened.
A beautiful woman with a slim figure wearing a cheongsam and high heels walked in.
Snap!
Two human heads were thrown on the coffee table, causing everyone to tremble in fear. Even the muscular man turned into a chicken and murmured uncontrollably.
"Mother……"
"Um?!"
The beauty's starry eyes were turned sideways, and the cold light shone in her eyes, like a blanket of ice.
He finally trembled and finished his sentence: "Mom... Mazu Empress?"
Looking through the eyes of the paper man, Xu Ping was speechless. What a boy, I almost wanted to be a father. I didn't get such an old son for nothing.
Shopkeeper Li, who was relatively calm-tempered, stood up in shock and didn't notice the cigarette butt burning on his hand.
"You, who are you?"
Xu Ping pinched his throat, looked around at everyone and said, "You don't need to know who I am. From now on, I will take over the Zhao family's business. You will still be the shopkeeper, and you will definitely get more money than before..."
Using Qi to control the throat, the sound produced is both charming and artificial, but from what I heard from rumors, this is not a good thing.
Everyone's eyes froze, their expressions changed drastically, they looked at the dead head on the table and did not dare to speak.
Seeing that no one spoke, Xu Ping was surprised: "You...who agrees and who opposes?"
…
Yizhuang.
Uncle Jiu was leading his three apprentices to collect the corpse.
Mr. Lin was in the side hall, holding three sticks of incense in his hand. After the incense burned steadily, he began to sew the bodies of Boss Zhao and Director Zhang.
After the head exploded, all the debris sank into the sea. All we could do was fill it with pig head meat and dog bones. At least we had to make do with removing the head and facial features first.
"Master, are these people in white clothes from the White Lotus Sect?" Qiu Sheng asked Uncle Jiu, who was holding a Suppression Talisman next to him, while carrying the body.
Gu Nianhua was burning incense aside. When she heard this, she smiled sweetly: "No, senior brother, the same goes for those in red clothes."
Qiu Sheng's mind was spinning quickly, he took one look and said, "Oh, it turns out that in the White Lotus Sect, women wear red clothes and men wear white clothes."
Gu Nianhua further explained: "Actually, it wasn't like this before. Later, after incorporating the red light photos, it became what it is now."
Wencai was wiping the blood on someone's body and raised his head: "How do you understand so well?"
Gu Nianhua laughed: "Because I almost became their saint."
Her identity is not a secret. Both Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai know it. After all, the Da Jing Dynasty has long been dead, as long as they don't talk nonsense outside.
The people of the White Lotus Sect believed that she had residual dragon energy in her body, so they insisted on helping him to ascend to the throne.
And this kind of situation didn't just happen to her, basically all the royal children who survived the Great Jing Dynasty were targeted.
It’s quite funny to say that it used to be reverse scene, but now it’s Lian Jing. It’s ridiculous even when I think about it.
But just after saying this, she felt uneasy again, remembering the feeling of being watched inexplicably during the funeral at the Ren family.
"Master, do you think these people from the White Lotus Sect are here to find me?"
Uncle Jiu thought for a while and said, "I don't understand why they raided the pier at night. Let's go check it out tomorrow."
"Maybe it has something to do with that vampire..."
As he spoke, Uncle Jiu couldn't help but fall into memories. He recalled that he had once dealt with a vampire. It was just a small episode in his life, which was why he remembered it so deeply.
The first kiss is gone... I don’t know where that nun is now?
"Xiao Hua, don't go out these days to avoid being watched by the White Lotus Sect. When... Xiao Xu releases the news, the truth will naturally come out."
"ah?!"
Several disciples looked surprised, Qiu Sheng said in horror: "Master, do you mean that these people were killed by shopkeeper Xu?"
Uncle Jiu shook his head and pointed at the body of the White Lotus Cult: "It must be the White Lotus Cult, not the dock workers. According to the information I heard, a paper man appeared on the dock that night. It should be the paper man controlled by Xiao Xu, protecting the body."
The remaining workers lived there.”
Gu Nianhua couldn't help but wonder, could it be because I have a grudge against the White Lotus Sect?
Wen Cai had a look of admiration on his face. If I have this ability, am I still afraid that Miss Ren won't marry me?
Qiu Sheng was equally envious, I wish I were so powerful.
Ignoring the three apprentices, Uncle Jiu added an evil-suppressing talisman to the corpses in red to enhance the effect.
Women who die in red clothes are prone to gathering evil spirits, not to mention that most of them died in the water.
Water is Yin.
Without this evil-suppressing talisman to suppress the gathering evil energy and dissipate it before being buried, the female corpse would easily turn into a vicious ghost.
The four people in Yi Zhuang were each busy with their own things. Suddenly there was a noise outside the house. Uncle Jiu's expression changed and he looked towards the door.
"Who is coming?"
There was silence outside the house for a moment, and then a shout hovered in the sky.
"Old Mother Wusheng, White Lotus comes to the world!"
"Ask the young dragon to come out of the mountain and enter my white lotus to save people and solve disasters. The world is big..."
The chanting stopped abruptly, and a strange sound came: "Pfft!"
A dead head spiraled into the air, flew in from outside the courtyard wall, landed on the ground, faced the three of them, and spat out the last word.
"same!"
Uncle Jiu was shocked and held the peach wood sword.
Qiu Sheng touched the dung fork next to him.
Wencai ran into the kitchen, carrying a kitchen knife.
A hurricane blew open the gate of Yizhuang, and three colorful paper figures stood there, with more than a dozen corpses lying at their feet, all dressed in white.
The paper man raised his hand to Uncle Jiu. Uncle Jiu was stunned and returned the greeting. Then he saw the paper man jump out and slowly disappear into the night.
"It turns out that Xiao Xu has done everything." Uncle Jiu suddenly looked depressed and felt inexplicably abandoned. They used to play together.
