Su Chen did not avoid the topic.

He has clear eyes and a kind attitude.

"Oh, just now I saw Uncle An's daughter's forehead was black and her life was in danger, so I asked Brother Yu to call Uncle An. It turned out that his daughter was walking by the river and accidentally slipped and fell. Brother Yu and the others had to work hard to pull her out."

Su Chen asked seriously, "Has anyone died in the river before? It's not supposed to be slippery in the winter because there's no moss. I saw something when I passed by. I don't know if it was that thing that lured me in or what... Don't go there at night in the future. Be careful not to slip."

Everyone suddenly understood what was said.

"So Huanhuan was almost replaced by a water ghost? Why is this kid so unlucky?"

"That's right. I heard a while ago that Huanhuan was almost hit by a car while crossing the road. I thought it was just a lie."

"Ah? Then she must be unlucky. I'll ask Lao An to take her to the temple to pray."

"What are you praying for? The young man is not here. Just ask for a talisman later."

"Right, right, right, young man, what kind of talisman is good for someone with such bad luck?"

Su Chen smiled and said, "A peace talisman will do."

Back at the stall, Yueyue ran out and clung to his thigh with a look of grievance.

"Dad~"

Su Chen smiled and picked her up and sat her on his lap.

"Didn't Yueyue see that Daddy was scared?"

The little guy nodded repeatedly, his little hands tightly grasping his clothes.

"Dad was wrong. Next time, I'll take Yueyue with me wherever I go, okay?"

The little guy nodded again, as if he was shy. He buried his little head in Su Chen's arms and rubbed it for a few times before straightening his head again.

A Biao came out.

"Brother, it's time to eat!"

Su Chen looked at his watch and realized that it was already 12 o'clock.

I hurriedly carried Yueyue and A Biao to the noodle shop to eat noodles.

While eating, the customers in the noodle shop started chatting.

"Didn't I tell you this river was weird? I went there once before and it was chilly."

"Isn't it? Four children fell in the summer, and one hasn't been fished out yet. He's probably still in the mud."

"I think there were three last year? Anyway, this Qingjiang River is so weird, I don't even dare to go swimming in it in the summer."

"Is it because there's a lot of water plants under the water? Or maybe it's because there's too much silt. Sigh, the higher-ups only care about demolishing and selling off land, and they don't care about the river at all."

"Forget about the water plants and mud. Even the shit and urine are flowing in there. It stinks down there."

……

Su Chen listened and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

pretty good.

Everyone was scared and no longer dared to go to the river, so fewer accidents happened.

It is true that the water ghost is looking for a replacement. It must find a drowned ghost in order to escape from this river. As a heavenly master, Su Chen had seen a water ghost looking for a replacement before, and he would not stop it as long as it was not malicious.

Although Uncle An's daughter had one foot halfway into the mud this time, she was still strong enough so she wouldn't drown. The water ghost grabbed her leg and Su Chen took action.

Unfortunately, the water ghost is not only extremely powerful in the water, but also moves very fast. His current skills are not enough, so it is not appropriate to take action against it.

Of course, judging from the way the water ghost ran away immediately after being frightened by the talisman and the peace amulet, it is a timid one and would not do anything too evil.

Thinking of Su Chen, he saw Yueyue almost poking noodles into her nostrils, and he hurriedly stopped her: "Yueyue, can daddy feed you?"

The little guy shook his head: "No, I want to eat it myself."

"alright."

Su Chen was helpless. He quickly finished his noodles and watched Yueyue struggling alone.

The little guy loves food, but he doesn't know how to use chopsticks very well. He often picks up noodles halfway and then all the noodles slip away, and he has to start all over again. Or he pokes the chopsticks into his face and nose, and once he even almost poked them into his eyes, which scared Su Chen.

It took almost an hour to finish a bowl of noodles. During this time, Lao Xu smiled and added hot soup twice to prevent the noodles from getting cold.

When Su Chen, A Biao and the others returned, they saw Lin Jingyu with a sad face.

"What's going on?" A Biao asked suspiciously, then looked around and lowered his voice, "What's going on with Huanhuan?"

Although he looks rough, he is careful. While others were distracted by Su Chen's few words, he noticed that something was wrong with Lin Jingyu.

Lin Jingyu patted his forehead and said, "I just accompanied Uncle An to the hospital to get a tetanus shot. Huanhuan... I'll go to Uncle An's house and ask him later."

As he said that, he looked at Su Chen and said, "Brother, I asked about those two houses this morning. Both owners said they would think about it. I guess they lost a lot of money due to demolitions recently. I don't know how much they can sell their houses for. I said I would only give them one day, so I guess we won't be able to confirm until tomorrow."

"Brother Yu, I trust you to do the job."

Lin Jingyu said with a bitter face: "I am worried, I am worried now..."

He glanced at the location of Lao An's shoe repair stall and sighed deeply.

"I don't know if there will be a second time!"

He pushed A Biao and said, "Give me two more amulets."

After getting the talisman, Lin Jingyu threw the stack of papers in his hand to A Biao: "Here, I guess I don't have time, please help me stick it on!"

After saying that, he didn’t eat the meal and walked towards Lao An.

Ah Biao looked at him and shook his head: "Oh, Ah Yu is really a life of worry. When he was a teacher in school, he was always in charge of students. Now that he is back, the neighbors also help him."

Su Chen glanced at him.

Ah Biao looked at him warily: "Why are you looking at me? I'm not helping. I just watch the shop all day and don't care about anything else outside."

"Yeah, you're just aloof."

Su Chen smiled and shook his head. Seeing that Yueyue was bored, he took the child to buy colored pencils and paper. He watched the little guy lying on the table and drawing on the cover of the picture book, and continued to read "The Examination of Alchemy".

This book records all the divination techniques that have been popular from ancient times to the present, including astrology, tortoise divination, divination, dream interpretation... covering numerology, yin and yang, the five elements, astronomy and calendar, etc.

However, the explanations are very superficial, and divination using the methods recorded in the book cannot predict good or bad luck at all, let alone the divination techniques passed down in the Tianshi Mansion, which can glimpse into the past and predict the future.

Putting down "The Examination of Alchemy", Su Chen picked up "The Records of Miao Gu" again.

In the ghost-slaying team in his previous life, Su Chen had also seen Gu Poets, but they were all people who raised soul-eating Gu worms. The other Gu worms were useless against ghost energy.

However, according to the records in the sect's books, there are different types of Gu insects. Some Gu are poisonous and can cure all kinds of poisons, especially deadly snake venom. Some Gu are good at making sounds, which can disturb people's minds at the mildest and destroy their souls at the worst...

This book records the author's encounters with poisonous insects and poison masters in the form of travel notes. It is much more interesting than "A Study of Alchemy and Magic".

As Su Chen was looking, he saw a shadow falling in front of him. He looked up and saw a familiar face.

The people who came were Qin Ying and Liang Jianguo.

Qin Ying was wearing a yellow flower behind her ear. When she saw Su Chen looking up, she pulled Liang Jianguo and slowly bowed to him three times.

"Master, thank you for fulfilling my father's wish. Thank you."

Su Chen: "My condolences."

Qin Ying straightened up with a faint smile on her face: "Master, I'm not sad. My father has endured a lot of physical torture over the years. He can hold on until now because of his obsession."

"Sometimes, I wish he'd gone sooner." She said this with a bit of embarrassment. "I didn't really believe this before, but now I know it, and it's good. At least my dad won't be tormented by his illness anymore. Maybe he'll even be able to come home and see us on the seventh day. Don't you agree?"

Su Chen nodded: "Except for the seventh day, in fact, the old hero can go home as long as he wants. He has been running around killing enemies all his life, and his evil spirit is extremely heavy. After death, he will become a ghost, and his ghost spirit is also full. As long as he doesn't show up in the daytime, he can go out of the ghost world and wander at night without any problem."

"...Ah?" Qin Ying was surprised, then overjoyed: "Really? That's great!"

Then she took out two red envelopes and a silk banner from her purse.
