“What’s the matter? Chen Luo hurriedly asked.

Chen Ping squinted slightly, as if he was reminiscing, and said: “Two years ago, during the autumn harvest, Wang Xigui, a tenant farmer in Xiaoxi Village in the east of the city, came to Fushang and said that a tiger ran out of Xixiu Mountain and took his mother-in-law away. At that time, the young lady went out to run an errand, and I told you about it, young master. ”

After speaking, Chen Ping glanced at Chen Luo with slanted eyes, and Chen Luoleng took a moment, this kind of thing should not be taken seriously by the personality of the previous body, so there is no memory.

“What did I say then? Chen Luo asked.

“You let the old slave look at it…” Chen Ping continued, “The old slave made a good idea, found Zhou Yong, a hunter from Xiaoxi Village, gave him twenty taels of silver, and sent a dozen Zhuangding as helpers, ran to Xixiu Mountain to catch the tiger, and killed it. ”

“And then what? ”

“At that time, Zhou Yong probed the tiger’s den, saying that there should be two tigers nearby, a male and a female, how did they kill the head mother, but they did not see the public. Just in case, I asked people to search the vicinity for a few more days, but when they couldn’t find the male tiger, they withdrew the man. Young Master, do you say that the male tiger has cultivated into essence and returned for revenge? ”

Chen Luo groaned slightly, in this world, it is not unusual for a beast to become a spirit. Let’s not talk about what heavenly materials and earth treasures were taken by the good fate, just talking about the three doors of Confucian Buddhism, Daomen preaching, Buddha Pudu, and Confucianism, there is a chance that the beast will open its spiritual wisdom and turn into a monster. It is difficult to guarantee that there will be a master who opened his golden mouth, so that the escaped male tiger could get the way and turn into a tiger demon.

“Zhou Yongke is still there? Chen Luo asked.

Chen Ping suddenly realized and said; “Young Master, when you say that, I remembered it. Before my Chen family’s accident, Zhou Yong entered the mountain and never returned, and it has been about a month now. ”

Chen Luo frowned again and drank lightly: “Zhong Kui!” ”

I saw that Zhong Kui’s figure slowly emerging behind Chen Luo. Chen Luo had already explained Zhong Kui’s affairs to Chen Ping before, but Chen Ping did not expect that the other party was so ugly, his heart was horrified, his legs were soft, but he held the face of the housekeeper of Chen Mansion hard, but he just turned his face sideways and did not look at Zhong Kui.

Chen Luo did not pay attention to Chen Ping’s expression, but asked Zhong Kui, “You ate that ghost, but what did you find?” ”

Zhong Kui nodded and said: “That ghost has not been formed for a long time, at most for more than a month, there are still some memory pictures of the deepest part of the soul, although it is chaotic, but it can be vaguely recognized that it should be hunting for a living…”

“So that ghost eight achievements were transformed by Zhou Yong…” Chen Luo muttered, “Then the tiger demon that harmed my Chen Mansion should be the disappearing male tiger.” ”

“That… Now what? Chen Ping regarded Chen Luo as if he were his own, and he had always had a “genius” filter for Chen Luo, and he was not surprised by Chen Luo’s performance at this time, but gave birth to the feeling that this was the son of the master, and subconsciously asked.

Chen Luo thought for a moment and said, “That tiger demon has killed so many people, and his body must be full of blood and qi, and he does not dare to approach the county seat. Since it was originally a fierce beast of Xixiu Mountain, it must also be hiding in Xixiu Mountain. ”

“I remember my father once said that the officials of the Great Xuan Dynasty can stimulate the official seal and consume the dynasty’s luck to detect the demon qi of one side. The entire Wan’an County is too big, it is not a critical moment, and Cai Zhi County will definitely not explore the whole city with luck. But if it is only one Xixiu Mountain, my Chen family can still afford the starting price. ”

“Uncle Ping, you go to the account and pay two thousand taels of silver! ”

“Two thousand taels? Chen Ping was shocked in his heart, Chen Mansion relied on Chen Xuan as the head of the household, doing some rice grain and silkworm business, and his annual income was about 4,000 taels, and after cutting out the daily expenses, the silver taels that could be stored every year were about 2,500 taels. Chen Luo was about to withdraw nearly a year’s worth of incoming silver in one breath, which made Chen Ping start to wonder if Chen Luo was possessed by someone else.

“Young Master, do you want to ask the young lady? Chen Ping hesitated for a moment, but still said tentatively.

Chen Luo frowned slightly, to be honest, he didn’t pay much attention to money before, and although he himself was a poor social animal in his previous life, he didn’t have any concept of silver, the reason why he said the number of “two thousand taels” was that he probably remembered that the county was a family that could mobilize the fortune of the dynasty to bless the rich, and the price was clearly marked, and the price of the county town was one thousand taels of silver.

Of course, the county magistrate took this silver, and then used it to build bridges and pave roads, support widows and widows, and subsidize official education, but made the dynasty’s luck stronger.

Seeing Chen Ping’s reaction, Chen Luo also realized that two thousand taels was not a small amount for the Chen family, and was about to promise him to ask Chen Xuan’s opinion, but after thinking about it, he was not the waste rice worm he used to be, but it was better to take advantage of the fact that he was now dead and resurrected to establish a personal design. Besides, this silver money is related to the safety of the Chen Mansion, and it is an expense that cannot be saved, so his face turned pale and said: “I am in charge of this matter, let Chen Xuan rest well, don’t disturb her!” ”

Chen Ping was stunned when he heard this, the young master actually had a responsibility! It seems that the old man is right, men are mature in an instant, so he quickly nodded: “I… I’ll go to the account and withdraw the silver ticket. ”

“Well, then you go, I’ll wait for you at the door. The others don’t need to be alarmed first, the tiger demon should not dare to storm the county. ”

Chen Ping quickly answered and turned to leave. Chen Luo then turned his head to look at Zhong Kui, when Zhong Kui appeared before, as the Lord of the Book Spirit, he sensed the weakening of the aura on Zhong Kui’s body.

“What’s wrong with you? But was injured in a fight with a ghost before? ”

Zhong Kui was stunned, and waved at Chen Luo: “Annoying the lord and father, there is nothing wrong with a certain family.” It’s just that the underworld here is a little strange, and when the lord settles the matter of the tiger demon, it is not too late for a certain family to make a reward. ”

When Chen Luo heard this, he nodded. Zhong Kui was originally a great judgment in the netherworld, and it is not unusual for the “Zhong Kui” book spirit condensed by himself to enter the underworld. However, at this time, the disposal of the tiger demon is the highest priority, so I will no longer ask questions.

Out of the gate of Chen Mansion, it is Xi’an Avenue, one of the three main streets of Wan’an County, which is full of the houses of rich families and powerful people in the county, mixed with some schools and medical halls. At this time, it was the third hour, there were no pedestrians on the road, Chen Ping drove out a carriage from the house, Chen Luo stepped on the car, got into the carriage, and then rushed by Chen Ping, and began to ponder in his heart how to face the number one person in the county – Cai Tongchen of Cai Zhi County!

At three o’clock, it was between 11 p.m. and 1 a.m., and with Chen Luo’s experience in his previous life, he would not knock on the leader’s door during this time period. After all, this time is too private, and whatever the other party can do.

But at this time, Chen Luo could not be allowed to choose, according to Zhong Kui, the tiger demon needed the ghost to return before he could understand what the ghost did, so the tiger demon did not know that the ghost was eaten by Zhong Kui for the time being. However, if the ghost does not return to the tiger demon after dawn, the tiger demon must know that something happened to the ghost, and things will be difficult to predict.

Second, there is another reason why Chen Luo dares to do this, that is, Cai Tongchen has a good relationship with his dead cheap father, and it is said that he was also guided by Father Chen. Chen Xuan A woman can support the Chen Mansion family business and develop, which is also indispensable to Cai Tongchen’s help.

The moon was rare, and the county office was not far from Chen Mansion, and after walking for about twenty minutes, Chen Ping drove the carriage behind the county office. This county official residence is behind the Yamen, and naturally there is also a grand main gate behind the county office. Chen Ping stepped forward and knocked on the door, and in less than a moment the door opened the door with a sleepy eye, and before he spoke, he saw a piece of snowflake silver handed over, quickly swallowed the scolding, smiled and took the silver with his left hand, took the post with his right hand, said “wait first”, and closed the door.

At this time, Chen Ping wanted to understand why Chen Xuandu would definitely be Master Li to lead the way. At this time, that disciple definitely did not dare to go directly to Cai Tongchen, so he could only find his uncle Master Li first. As a staff member, Master Li naturally had his own residence in the official residence.

It’s just that what Chen Luo didn’t expect was that Master Li didn’t wait, but waited for a sharp qi machine to shoot out from the back and hit Chen Luo’s carriage, and the entire carriage suddenly fell apart. Chen Luo only saw a good-looking middle-aged scribe flying out of the back in a long robe, holding a long sword, pointing at himself, and shouting——

“What a demon dares to steal my nephew’s flesh. You deceived my niece, you deceived all the servants, but you couldn’t deceive me Cai Tongchen-”
