The old man usually rents this thing out for only twenty or thirty cents at most. Now it costs almost eight to nine hundred cents to exchange for one tael of silver, so Fang Linyan's price completely exceeded his expectations. He nodded hurriedly and said excitedly:
"That's enough, that's enough. This little Yinwa man just took it to the Dragon King Temple to worship at the beginning of the month. I can use it as long as I want."
Fang Linyan looked at the tile and found that it was less than half the size of a palm. The complete tile was like a big sesame seed cake, and only about one-third of the tile was left.
Probably because it has been used to cook medicine for a long time, there is an obvious brown color on it, which looks like tea stains. Of course, this is not the point. You can see that there is a vague word "乐" written on it, and the rest is nothing. Something special.
Then Fang Linyan greeted a group of people to leave. When they were far away from the village and there were no outsiders around, Fang Linyan handed this thing to an old man next to him:
"Uncle Qing, please give me some help."
This old man's name is Qing Bo. He is a man of few words. He has no other hobbies except bata dry tobacco along the way, but he is a core member of the incense sect.
Li Ju's purpose in bringing him here was that Mr. Hu was stupid, rich in money, generous, and liked to do strange things. The key was that Li San, a shrewd monkey-like character, was different. Did you kneel down and lick it? So Li San must have gained a lot of benefits from Mr. Hu.
Therefore, Li Ju also had the intention to handle this task properly, and tried every means to bring this "expert" over.
Qing Bo is an expert in the Xiang Sect who encounters ghosts and gods, and he is the kind of person who really has two brushes. He is commonly known as the magic man. He has solved the troubles of at least thousands of people in the past few decades.
Facing what Fang Linyan handed over, Qing Bo did not take it directly. Instead, he waved his hand and motioned for Fang Linyan to place it on the stone next to him.
Then Qingbo took two more puffs of cigarette, and then knocked the pipe pot twice on the stone next to him, tucked it into his waistband, squatted down, and dug the soil with his hands.
The rest of the people felt a little baffled when they saw this scene, but Fang Linyan still waited patiently.
Soon, Uncle Qing dug up a pit the size of a bowl on the ground, then straightened up, beat his waist, and began to roar twice at the top of his voice.
The sound was very strange, a bit like a donkey braying, and a bit like a dog barking. Ahem, it just didn't sound like a human being.
As a result, after he roared, not long after, a yellow-skinned man crawled out from the grass next to him. This yellow-skinned man was not afraid of people, and stood up in front of Qing Bo.
Qingbo took out a piece of cake and broke off a small piece for Huangpizi to eat. After Huangpizi ate, he came to the pit and peeed in it with his legs outstretched.
Strange to say, Huang Pizi only peed a small amount, but the pit was actually full. It seemed that there was a spring underneath, and it quickly overflowed with water. The people around him were also amazed to see it, and thought it was incredible. .
Then Qing Bo reached into the pit to wash, but nothing happened while washing. After washing for more than ten seconds, he wiped his hands on the clothes, and then went to pick up the broken tile that was placed on the stone next to it.
Who would have thought that when Qing Bo picked up the tile, he saw strands of white gas coming out from where his fingers came into contact with the tile, and there was also an unpleasant smell in the air, as if he had touched it directly. It's like it's on a piece of red-hot iron!
Qing Bo squinted his eyes and stared at the tile for a long time, then slowly put it down, and then went to wash his hands in Huangpizi's urine puddle. At this time, the people around him were stunned when they saw such a strange situation, and they all stayed away from the tile, even Sai Zhang Fei was no exception.
After Qing Bo washed his hands again, no, to be precise, he should have washed them properly, then he came to Fang Linyan and said slowly:
"My lord, I have sworn an oath in front of the statue of Empress Sanxiao in my life.
I will never tell lies, so I can only tell what I can confirm. "
Fang Linyan nodded and said:
"Okay, Uncle Qing, please tell me."
Qingbo pondered for a while and said:
"The evil spirit on this tile is very strong. As far as I know, if you use it to cook medicine and drink it, it will be harmful to the body."
Then he thought again and said:
"The little old man here worships the family gods (Huang Pizi, fox fairy, etc.), but the path on this tile is the path of ghosts. From this point of view, it makes sense."
After finishing speaking, Qingbo closed his mouth and continued to smoke.
After Fang Linyan got these two pieces of information, he pondered for a while and then went to stay at Xu Dahu's house nearby. This was the place where Li San contacted him. Xu Dahu was a relative of one of his former brothers, and he also had a good relationship with Li San. of.
Li San had noticed before that Li Ju was very interested in Master Hu's affairs, so this guy started to wonder in his mind whether the other party was also interested in the position of housekeeper? Therefore, he felt a big threat, so he disliked Li Ju even more. The two of them were at odds with each other, which can be said to be a serious involution.
In order not to fall behind others, Li San was also very active at this time. After he settled down with Fang Linyan, he immediately came to claim credit and said:
"Sir, the boat here is ready. It is the big Wupeng boat nearby. The weather is not bad today. The fishermen said it is no problem to go around the waters of the underwater city."
Fang Linyan waved his hand and said:
"There's no rush in this matter."
Li San said in astonishment:
"Isn't this matter urgent?"
Fang Linyan said:
"Well, there's no rush. The most urgent task now is to investigate the subsequent status of people who used Old Man Liu's piece of broken tile as decoction, especially those who recovered after drinking it."
"What specific information should be collected? The diseases, gender, age, and physical conditions of the people who drank the medicine within six months of taking the medicine should be collected from at least ten people."
Then Fang Linyan took out one hundred taels and gave it to Li San:
"You go to Xu Dahu and ask him to complete this matter as soon as possible."
Li San did not accept the money, but said cheerfully:
"How much does it cost for such a small thing? I'll do it for you right away."
Looking at Li San's leaving figure, Fang Linyan smiled slightly, then went to find Li Ju and said:
"Elder brother, your Xiang Cult also has branches here, right?"
Li Ju nodded:
"Well, yes."
Fang Linyan said:
"I need help from local brothers to find out something. How many people around this Ma Tiao Lake have shady tiles like Old Man Liu?"
"By the way, let me ask again, what is the curative effect of those people's Yin Wa?"
Li Ju nodded, then took out a waist card and threw it to a man next to him:
"Did you hear what the young master said? Go and do it quickly."
This man's surname was Huang, and he was Li Ju's second disciple. He was usually responsible for handling a series of trivial matters for him. He immediately gave Li Ju a slap in the face:
"Yes! I'm going right now!"
***
When it got dark, all the information came back one by one. First of all, the news came from Huang Er:
There are six people like Old Man Liu who own yin tiles near Mata Lake, and they are called yin medicine shops. Because now the legend of Yin Tile has been widely circulated, and there are different opinions. It is not just a simple medicine introduction, but also words that can cure all diseases have been spread.
In this case, when the villagers are boiling medicine, they like to get a piece of shady tile as a primer. Usually, they give money, but if they really don’t have money, they can get it by just bringing a fish and a few eggs. This thing is a decoction.
As for the efficacy? There really are some.
The most typical thing is that I have taken five or six patches of medicine from the doctor before but no improvement, so I asked Yinwa for medicine. Drinking the same medicine often takes effect quickly, and the effect is remarkable.
Then there is the information obtained by Li San - this kind of investigation is definitely the most convenient for local people to do, so Li San actually does it through the local Xiangjiao people, country people My horizons were shallow, so I only spent about two taels of silver to get this done.
Among the information obtained by Li San, there was a list of seventeen people in total, including ten men and seven women, ranging in age from seven to sixty-eight. They suffered from various diseases, including broken legs and colds. Some have diarrhea and some have smallpox.
Because Fang Linyan had told him to focus on collecting the list of people who took the medicine and became effective after taking the medicine, so there were fifteen people who took the medicine and became effective after taking the medicine. They returned to action within a week and could get out of bed to work.
The two ineffective Fang Linyan looked at each other and found that they were both dead.
First of all, Fang Linyan discovered that among the fifteen people included in the statistics, eight people had died, and the death rate exceeded 50%. In terms of age, there was an obvious trend of aging, and all four died. Over ten years old.
Then among the remaining seven people who survived, the current situation was not very good. Four people were lingering on the bed again, and only three people were doing well.
Among these three people, one was the seven-year-old child, and the other two were no more than fifteen years old.
After seeing such information, Fang Linyan basically knew something in his heart.
It was already late at night, so I went to sleep directly.
After getting up early the next morning, both Li Ju and Li San thought that Fang Linyan should go to the lake to have a look, right?
After all, before coming here, it can be said that Fang Linyan was completely investigating the sinking city at the bottom of the lake. Unexpectedly, after Fang Linyan arrived, he actually started investigating some strange things.
But what they never expected was that Fang Linyan's request was to investigate five other Yin medicine shops, and the content of the investigation was also very simple, exactly the same as what Li San investigated yesterday.
Fortunately, Fang Linyan is a big benefactor, and he is quite generous, so there are not many people asking for investigation, only a dozen or so.
So under Fang Linyan's silver bullet offensive, the information was quickly compiled.
Fang Linyan looked at these materials, his brows gradually relaxed, and then he pondered for a while and said:
"We are getting closer to that secret, maybe we can solve it today!"
Before Fang Linyan came here, he told Li Ju and Li San exactly what he wanted to do. The purpose of this was to increase the favorability of the two by confiding in them, and secondly, to borrow from them. Human strength and wisdom.
Therefore, Li Ju and Li San were very surprised when they heard what Fang Linyan said. They both felt that they were still confused as to why the secret was about to be solved.
At this time, a servant suddenly rushed in from outside. He was a servant from Xu Dahu's house, and then he said to Fang Linyan:
"This young master, Master Deng came back with a man, saying that you asked him to find him."
Master Deng is actually Sai Zhangfei. Why he got this nickname is firstly because of his great strength, and secondly because of his extremely dark skin. When Li Ju and Li San were busy doing business in the morning, Fang Linyan also took fifty taels of silver. Let him go and do things for himself.
At this time, when he heard the servant say this, Fang Linyan smiled slightly and said:
"Please quickly."
Soon, Sai Zhangfei came in with an old woman. At first glance, the old woman looked like someone who was used to walking around in the streets. Her eyes were darting around. When she came in, she found neither the patient nor the patient. He didn't see any medicine jars or anything like that, so he smelled something fishy, so he immediately complained and said with a smile:
"Oh, my old lady seems to have a bad stomach today. Let me go and pay my respects first!"
Fang Linyan smiled and said:
"No, just pull your pants down and I'll pay you ten pairs of pants when the work is done."
After he finished speaking, he simply threw a piece of silver in front of her.
Looking at such a large piece of snowflake silver, the old woman swallowed her saliva, but did not dare to reach out to take it, and said with a smile:
"These are all rich and powerful gentlemen, why do you need to tease a poor and old woman like me?"
Fang Linyan stood up, looked at her and said kindly:
"Thank you, Madam Wang. Since I came to you, I definitely didn't want to amuse you. If you answer a few questions carefully, I will let you go and give you another hundred taels of silver."
"But if you're talking nonsense, don't blame me for giving you a hard time."
Xie Wang showed a smile that was uglier than crying, and then said hurriedly:
"Okay, okay, Sir, please feel free to say hello."
Fang Linyan said:
"Have you brought your piece of Yin Wa?"
Xie Wang did not dare to neglect, and directly took out a cloth bag from her arms, and then handed it over with both hands. Fang Linyan took it and looked at it, and then compared it with Uncle Zhang Fei's piece, and found that there was not much difference. Whether it’s the pattern around the tile or the material, it’s obvious that it comes from the same place.
Then Fang Linyan looked at Xie Wang and said:
"First question, where did your shady tiles come from?"
When Xie Wang opened her mouth and planned to come, Fang Linyan stretched out a finger and said to her:
"I advise you to think clearly before speaking. I just said that if you talk nonsense, I will give you a hard time. Under normal circumstances, there are still many people who don't take my words seriously, but, In the end these people regretted it.”
