Gua Fei in the world

Chapter 189 You are lying

Ye Yaoguang smiled modestly: "Thank you, old lady."

She practiced the Qi of the Five Elements, and it lingered all over her body, so it was naturally clean and clear.

"Mother, Miss Ye..." Mrs. Zheng also whispered into Mrs. Zheng's ear.

Mrs. Zheng suddenly realized, and looked at Ye Yaoguang with some respect in her eyes: "No wonder, thank you for saving us from danger."

Ye Yaoguang shook her head, she now understands why so much yin energy has been leaked, and no one in the entire Zheng mansion died unexpectedly, or committed suicide due to hallucinations and nightmares, it should be because of the old lady's suppression, if not There is this old lady who visits Zheng Juxian diligently and contacts a lot, I am afraid that Zheng Juxian is already a cold corpse now.

"I've met the old lady, madam." At this time, the butler brought a person who was about his age over and saluted.

"You are here, I ask you where did you throw the bell that the old lady asked you to throw away yesterday?" This person must be the old lady's steward He.

"The little one gave it to He Gui and told him to throw it away." Steward He was followed by a young man.

Madam Zheng's eyes fell on He Gui: "Where did you throw the bell?"

He Gui hurried forward, he lowered his head: "Guan He asked the younger one to throw it farther away, and the younger one threw it into the river to the north."

"This..." Madam Zheng looked at Ye Yaoguang with embarrassment.

Ye Yaoguang's heart sank when he heard the words. It would be troublesome if he threw it into the river. He was already discouraged. The ghost inside should be able to control the rattle. If there is a water ghost in the water, it will encourage it. It uses the water to escape and hide It is very easy for herself, and it is too late for her to chase now.

"You raise your head." When everyone followed Ye Yaoguang in silence, Wen Tingzhan spoke suddenly.

When everyone looked up, they saw Wen Tingzhan's gaze fell on He Gui. He Gui lowered his head as if he didn't know, but it was Steward He who was beside him who elbowed him, and he raised his head in a daze.

"Look at me, and say it again, where did you throw that bell?" Wen Ting was pitch black with a pearl-like restrained brilliance, but was sharp enough to penetrate people's hearts.

Then He Gui's eyes moved: "The little one threw it into the river to the north."

"When did you throw it? Besides throwing the bell, did you do other things?" Wen Tingzhan asked again.

He Gui thought for a while before saying: "Last night, Manager He was handed over to the younger one. The old lady ordered the younger one to throw it away overnight. The younger one should go and return quickly in the middle of the night."

"Really?" Wen Tingzhan raised the corner of his lips slightly, "You also wore these shoes last night?"

"Yes..." He Gui replied in a weak voice.

"When I entered the town this morning, I saw a lot of barefoot fish sellers in Nanshi. I was quite curious, so I went up to inquire and found out that the Xinghua Lane restaurant spilled fish last night. Because of this, one road was impassable, so fishermen in the north had to detour this morning, and the other road was a dirt road. It rained all night last night, and it was full of mud. The fishermen wore straw sandals in summer, and they were all stained with mud. One foot, some straw sandals even got stuck in the mud and couldn’t be pulled out, that’s why fishermen are selling fish barefoot in Nanshi today.” Wen Tingzhan said leisurely, “Why are your shoes so clean?”

"I, I, I..." He Gui didn't think of this, because he didn't go to the north at all, so he didn't know that this happened, and his face turned pale for a while.

"Because you have never been to the north." Wen Tingzhan made a final decision, "You are lying."

"You bastard, why didn't you tell the truth, where did you throw the bell!" Mrs. Zheng was furious. The servants in her family lied in front of so many people, it was embarrassing to her.

"Small little..."

"Say it quickly." Guanshi He was also furious, but this was his distant nephew, who kicked him on the knee.

"The little one saw that the bell was delicate, so he took it to a pawn shop to pawn a tael of silver..." He Gui knelt on the ground with a plop, and cried, "The little one was confused for a moment, madam, please forgive me."

"What pawn shop?" Ye Yaoguang asked in a cold voice, she didn't ask whether it was dead or alive, the answer was clear at a glance.

"It's Donglu Pawnshop." He Gui said.

"Ma'am, this is a very important matter. You take everyone out of here quickly, and stick these three talismans on the gate. After I track down the bell, I will cast spells to drive away the Yin Qi in the mansion." Ye Yaoguang said from his arms He took out three talisman papers and handed them to Mrs. Zheng, then rushed out quickly.

Naturally, Wen Tingzhan also ran out.

The Donglu pawn shop is not far away, just one street away from the Zheng Mansion, Ye Yaoguang walked to the counter of the pawn shop and asked, "Did your pawn shop accept a purple-core iron bell?"

At this moment, it was a man in his early thirties who was making calculations. Hearing this, he raised his head to look at Ye Yaoguang, and then nodded: "Early this morning, a servant from Zheng's mansion came to be one."

"Where's the bell?"

"It was bought by someone in just an hour." The man replied.

Ye Yaoguang looked at him and knew that he was not lying, so he asked, "Who bought it?"

This era has very high requirements for pawnshops. Whether pawning or buying from a pawnshop, you must register with your account or guide files. It does not mean that you take it away when you are fancy, or sell it if you want to sell it at a suitable price.

"Girl, we have nothing to disclose." The man's tone was firm.

Ye Yaoguang also knows that in the pawnshop business, protecting the privacy of customers is a duty in this era.

Wen Tingzhan stepped forward and handed something to the man: "I want to know the person who bought the bell."

The man frowned first, and when he saw what Wen Tingzhan handed over, he hurriedly walked out: "Young master and girl sit down for a while, I'll go check it out."

Then he called the waiter to serve tea, Ye Yaoguang sat down, looked at the man who went back to quickly look through the files, and couldn't help approaching Wen Tingzhan: "What did you show him?"

Wen Tingzhan opened it for Ye Yaoguang to see. It turned out to be a seal. The design of the seal was very complicated, but there was a traditional character Yao in the middle. Wen Tingzhan took it back and explained: "This is the private seal of Marquis Yongfu. Lu’s pawnshop is the property of Zhong’s family, and it spreads across all provinces, counties and towns.”

"When did you two hook up?"

"Puff, cough, cough..." Wen Tingzhan took a sip of the tea brought by the waiter, and spit it out when he heard Ye Yaoguang's words. After coughing for a long time, he took out a handkerchief and wiped his mouth before looking helplessly. He glanced at Ye Yaoguang, and he had nothing to say about Ye Yaoguang's ability to use words.

Ye Yaoguang didn't feel what he said at all, and raised his eyebrows.

At this time, the man came over holding a booklet with one page turned: "Young master, look, this is the file left by the person who bought the bell."

"100 taels of gold!" What a bargain, Ye Yaoguang first looked at the transaction price, Ye Yaoguang felt that if he hadn't known the difference of this bell, it would never have been possible for such a large amount.
