Faced with Zhang Qian's question, the Japanese patrol disappeared in an instant.

"Hey, I know you don't have the Book of Fate. Why don't you go back and ask the City God? After all, we're old acquaintances, right? Hello?"

Zhang Qian rolled his eyes: "The Yincha is so heartless~"

Su Chen: "..."

Wu Xiaohan tugged at his clothes, signaling him to stop talking.

The next moment, Japan Tour appeared again.

He held a scroll of bamboo slips in his hand and handed it to Su Chen respectfully.

"Hey, give it to me. Why would you give it to Fellow Daoist Su?" Zhang Qian said with disdain and immediately moved closer to Su Chen.

The bamboo slips slowly opened.

The above clearly shows the deeds of two people.

One is Pei Jun, born in 58. He lost his father at the age of three. His original life expectancy was 72, but it was crossed out and changed to 36, with a line of small notes next to it.

"Voluntarily sacrifice his life? No, what does he want? Let me look at this man... Wan Junguo, Old Wan?"

Su Chen glanced at him and asked, "Master Zhang, do you know him?"

"From what you said, I know almost all the wealthy people in southern Zhejiang. Lao Wan is over 70 years old this year, and he asked me to find a cemetery for him two years ago."

Zhang Qian frowned as he spoke, "Old Wan asked me before if I had any method to prolong my life, and I fooled him. I didn't expect..."

Su Chen continued to read.

The next person was Pei Yuancai, the grandfather of Pei Jun. He died in 43 AD. He was sentenced to years in the underworld for killing thousands of people. Note: He was killed by lightning after escaping from prison.

Zhang Qian curled his lips and said, "He killed thousands of people during a time of war. Isn't he a complete villain? How dare this guy help his grandfather escape from prison?"

"That's not right," Zhang Qian slapped his forehead. "This kid is unwilling to see his grandfather being tortured. He thinks it will affect his fortune. But what's the point of rescuing this old ghost? Will he get rich?"

Wu Xiaohan asked in a low voice: "Master Zhang, does this Pei Yuancai know of any treasure?"

"Treasure?" Zhang Qian nodded in agreement. "Don't mention it, it's really possible. Back in 43, there was still a war going on. Some wealthy families liked to dig holes and bury valuables. Maybe it's true, but..."

Zhang Qian looked at Pei Jun's body again: "How did this guy set up such a large formation?"

"Are you also self-taught like you?"

"No way? He doesn't look very smart."

Wu Xiaohan: “…”

"Master Zhang, didn't he say that he had this white jade thing? Did he have a master? Did his master teach him?"

As he spoke, he looked at Su Chen, who raised his eyebrows: "Aren't you curious why Pei Yuancai's soul power is so great..."

It takes seven heavenly thunders to break it apart.

This was after decades of torture in the underworld.

Zhang Qian and Wu Xiaohan suddenly realized.

The two looked at each other.

"So, in fact, this Pei Yuancai is also a Xuanshi? After his death, his master's people found Pei Jun for the treasure and asked him to rescue Pei Yuancai?"

After saying this, Zhang Qian nodded heavily: "Everything makes sense now."

He looked at Zhao Qi and said, "Hurry up and investigate. They've killed over sixty people for a few bucks. This sect is definitely a cult, and we must catch them all."

Zhao Qi nodded repeatedly: "Master Zhang, don't worry, we will definitely do our best to investigate."

"Pei Jun is dead, but these people are still alive. They will definitely leave some clues."

Zhang Qian nodded and reminded, "Next time, take better care of your guns. Getting shot really hurts!"

Zhao Qi laughed dryly: "But Master Zhang, this gun...is not ours."

He also picked up a bullet from the ground: "This bullet is not what we usually use."

Zhang Qian: “!!!”

Su Chen held his forehead.

Master Zhang is a bit too arbitrary.

However, this was evident from the fact that he insisted on taking Beibei away without any explanation on Chunming Street.

After thinking for a while, Su Chen took off the white jade bracelet from Pei Jun and weighed it: "Master Zhang, can you lend me this for a while?"

"Fellow Daoist Su, do you want to study that formation? No problem."

Zhang Qian was stunned as he spoke, only to realize that the Japanese patrol had disappeared again without him noticing.

"Hey, you're so disrespectful! You left without even telling me."

He muttered and waved at Zhao Qi, signaling him to clean up the mess, and then led Su Chen and Wu Xiaohan out of the school gate.

After turning a few corners, a courtyard covered with snow appeared in front of us, with bamboo forests on three sides.

"Friend Su, I live here. If you have some free time, come and drink tea with me. I have plenty of Longjing tea and some Dahongpao tea too..."

Su Chen nodded: "Okay."

There is a grape tree in Zhang Qian's yard. There is a stone table and stone bench under the grape trellis. There are flowers and plants in the corners of the wall. Some of them have dried up, while some are still lush in the snow.

Zhang Qian boiled some water and brewed some Dahongpao tea. Then he slapped his thigh and said, "Hey, we haven't eaten the dishes we ordered yet, have we?"

"Let's go, let's go! If we don't eat now, the food will get cold. Fellow Daoist Su, hurry up, let's go to the Ghost Path!"

Su Chen: "..."

What time is it?

I'd rather drink tea!

After returning from southern Zhejiang and appearing by the river, Su Chen couldn't help but burp twice.

From a distance, Su Chen saw someone pulling a rope to clear the garbage by the river. Then he remembered that a lantern festival would be held by the river during the Lantern Festival.

Maybe they are worried that there won't be enough manpower during the New Year period, so they are starting to prepare now.

He smiled, walked up the riverbank, crossed the street into Chunming Street, used the public phone at the newsstand to call Chang Yu, and briefly told him about the situation in southern Zhejiang.

"White jade? An object that can conceal Dao power? Made by a secret master?" Chang Yu hesitated for a moment, "Then, fellow Daoist Su, I'll have someone go to your place and retrieve it. My uncle-in-law is knowledgeable and should be able to figure out something.

"In the Cuicheng you mentioned, someone who can conceal his power has also been found. We can test him to see if he also has this white jade item..."

Su Chen was just nodding slowly when Chang Yu asked, "On February 2nd of next year, would you be free to come to my Chunyang Palace in Longhu Mountain?"

The topic changed a bit quickly.

"Is something wrong?"

Sanyu smiled and said, "I'm getting married."

Is it decided?

"Congratulations, I will definitely be there to celebrate."

After hanging up the phone, Su Chen paid the money and walked in holding the white jade bracelet.

Wang Haitao was still writing furiously, but the arc of the brush sliding was too slow, looking like a turtle crawling.

Seeing him, Lao Liao greeted him with a smile: "Xiao Su, where were you going just now? Xiao Wang said you were going to southern Zhejiang. Did you really go there?"

Su Chen glanced at Wang Haitao who was drawing talismans with his head down, and smiled at Lao Liao: "Just go out for a while."

He exchanged another pleasantry: "Uncle Liao, are you going to open this stall until the 29th?"

"No, no, I'll just wait until the 28th. I need to take a day to clean up the house."

"Then Chunming Street No. 29 will be much quieter."

"That's a specific one. Look at Lao Qin up ahead. He also said he won't be open on the 29th. He's going back to town for the New Year. I guess he'll close up shop in the afternoon of the 28th."

Lao Liao sighed, "I hope everyone will have a good New Year this year."

As soon as the voice fell, Aunt Li started to joke: "It's hard to say, A Biao's age is definitely right, look, he has brought his wife home!"

Su Chen turned around and saw A Biao walking in slowly with a smile on his face, carrying two sacks.

Behind, A Kui followed with a bamboo basket on his back.

After Aunt Li finished her joke, she shouted into the hardware store, "Ah Zhen, Ah Zhen, your Ah Biao is back with his daughter-in-law!"
