Zhang Tian staggered out of Qiushuiyuan by himself, and walked down this bustling street. Naturally, he was looking for news in Desheng County. When he raised his eyes and saw a teahouse, he went in directly. I found a seat by the window, ordered a pot of tea and slowly sipped the tea...

This place is prosperous, and there are people of all kinds in the teahouse. Zhang Tian's spiritual consciousness enveloped the entire teahouse, and everyone's words rang clearly in his ears...

"I said Old Wang! What have you been up to lately?"

"It's not that my family asked me to go to the rouge shop in the city to buy some rouge..."

"Recently, the Li family is recruiting, are you going?"...

"How is your business recently?"...

……

The common people in the teahouse talked about everything, but one thing caught Zhang Tian's attention...

"I said, brother, you look bad when you look closely!" said a male duck voice.

"Hey, it's not that Wu Qingkuan who caused the trouble! By the way, what good way can you do to appease this kid's family?" Another voice whispered.

"Brother, is your Menniu Mansion involved in this matter?"

"Hush, this person was found by the elders of our clan, but his life and death are unknown, and he has disappeared! I have to wipe their ass! Sigh..."

"You! Just quit and quit..."

"How can it be so easy? Last time there was someone who was going to leave in the mansion, and the luggage was still in the house, but the person disappeared!..."

……

Hearing this, Zhang Tian narrowed his eyes, nodded his head and said, "It's really a coincidence, the Niu Mansion... is interesting!" He poked his head and took a look. The one with the slick face of the sharp-billed monkey cheeks, the other looks quite similar to him, he should be a cousin...

In the evening, several people upstairs from Qiushuiyuan sat together again and talked about their achievements...

Elder Lu Yao first said: "I went to the Yasi, and happened to meet a woman who was holding a pleading paper to file a complaint. This person was a mother named Wu Qingkuan. According to her, her son disappeared after going to the Niu Mansion. without a trace..." After taking a sip of tea, Elder Lu continued, "This Wu Qingkuan lives in the north of the city. In order to support his family, he often goes to the road in the south of the city to pretend to be a fortune teller to support his family. The neighbors don't even know about him. Knowing fortune-telling, a member of the Niu family called away Wu Qingkuan who was reading fortune-telling on a divination board on the side of the road! It was a coincidence that a neighbor happened to go to a nearby pharmacy to buy medicine and saw him. He also pretended not to know the neighbor, and said: "Benefactor, what hexagrams do you want to calculate? Is it asking for money, asking about a problem, or filing a lawsuit? Please tell me, and I will calculate it for you." The neighbor thought he had admitted his mistake She found out that her son had disappeared overnight, and she found out about it after inquiring everywhere, but the people in the Niu Mansion said that there was no such thing at all..."

"This matter is indeed a bit suspicious!" Elder Qiu said with a nod.

Song Huan, who is big and round, said: "When I was doing some manual labor in the secular place, some people found that this Niu family had hired a group of coolies without family members. According to the steward of the Niu Mansion, this group of coolies followed the Niu Mansion. The escort carts went to other towns to make a fortune, and these people stayed in other counties! Anyway, they never came back..."

Elder Qiu said: "Well, Zhang Yinuo and I went to check the place where corpses were abandoned in the wilderness, and found that there were some people buried in shallow pits with black bodies and no blood! This looks like a method of a cult! "

Zhang Tian also briefly recounted what happened today...

"It seems that this Niu Mansion should be the old lair of this cult in Desheng County. Tonight we will find the Niu Steward and find out!" Elder Qiu said firmly.

The elder who established the foundation found such a small worldly person, so naturally he could easily capture him. Soon, Steward Niu, who was drinking in the tavern, was captured by Song Huan. Ten said it...

Since three years ago, for some reason, the Niu Mansion recruited a group of coolies without relatives every year. It is said that they sent escorts to distant counties. However, people in the mansion who knew about this had some doubts.

One day, my uncle Niu Yuntian found me and asked me to quickly find someone who had no family to enter the house. Butler Niu, who had been drinking, was muttering in his heart, but happened to meet Wu Qingkuan, a fortune teller on the street, so I asked him if he had any relatives In this county, he said no.

I made things difficult for him on purpose and asked him to do the math, "Calculate for me which leg to walk first, and whether I go to the west or the east; and you also figure out whether I should blow the lamp or light it when I sleep!" Wu Qingkuan listened, Then he said with a smile: "Benefactor, I figured out that you walk on the front leg first; you can walk from east to west, north, south, wherever you want, and you can go wherever you want; if you don't want to blow the lamp when you sleep, you can light the lamp."

"Haha, hey! The hexagram you calculated is a double-ended! You are really eloquent!"

"My lord, you asked me to calculate the hexagram, so I have to calculate it like this! It's just for living!"

So I said: "It seems that you are good at fortune-telling, but you need too little money for this hexagram. One hexagram costs 20 taels of silver. Do you know the Niu Mansion? I am the steward of the Niu Mansion. I will take you into the Niu Mansion today. You Let the master in our mansion do the math, if the calculation is correct, everyone in the mansion will have to ask you to do the math, and then you will be rich!"

After hearing this, Wu Qingkuan's eyes lit up, and he quickly said, "That's great! If I earn taels of silver, I'm sure I won't treat you badly!"

"Hey, can you count on what you say?"

"Of course it counts."

"Okay, it's a deal! Come with me! But don't go in and talk too casually. I'm not trying to scare you. If I annoy the patriarch with a word, you'll have to suffer!"

There was still something Wu Qingkuan didn't understand, he had already thought about it, so he said, "Don't worry, I won't talk nonsense!"

In this way, I led Wu Qingkuan into the Niu Mansion in Desheng County City, and then found my uncle Niu Yuntian. Niu Yuntian took him outside the study of the patriarch Niu Yushan, and then asked Wu Qingkuan to go in...

I also wanted to step into the study at that time, but my uncle Niu Yuntian stopped me. After a quick glance, I found a person sitting on the grand teacher's chair behind the Eight Immortals table in the study. He was not the patriarch of my family. In his 30s, he looks oily and pink, with a frighteningly pale complexion, two brush eyebrows, a pair of peach blossom eyes, and a white scarf on his head. He glanced at himself with a smile. At that time, his whole body turned cold for no reason, and he was so frightened. I ran away rolling and crawling...
