Chapter 100 The Case of the Missing Bride

Hua Jianli thought, anyway, he would stay here for a few more days, refine more elixirs, and sell them at an auction in seven days, so that he could repay the money borrowed from Wen Sizhu.

By the way, let's take a look at what's going on with the bride's frequent disappearances. I heard about it yesterday and thought it was just a case of disappearance. If it was a demon causing trouble, as a member of the Immortal Sect, I should help.

After some discussion, they saw that it was already getting late and decided to go to the Yamen together early tomorrow morning to inquire about the situation.

In order to ensure Jin Huan's safety, Hua Jianli negotiated with Hou Yueming to let him and Jin Huan live in the same room.

That night, Hua Jianli returned to his room and took out the elixir that he had been refining all night in the Longyin Mingji Furnace. He still felt full of energy and not tired at all.

This is also due to the power of the fused spiritual root. While the spiritual power is rapidly increased, the mental power is also enhanced.

When the first ray of dawn in the morning entered the window of the room, there was a "dong dong dong" knock on the door outside.

Hua Jianli looked at Qin Sizhu, who was sleeping soundly, and got up to open the door.

Who would knock on the door so early?The time they agreed on yesterday was at three quarters past midnight, and now it's just past nine o'clock.

Hua Jianli opened the door and saw that Jin Huan was standing outside the door holding a copper basin. He handed the handkerchief to Hua Jianli and said, "The face wash has been prepared."

"For me?" Hua Jianli took the veil and pointed at himself in confusion.

"Well, last night I asked Hou Yueming how to be a servant in the human world. I didn't expect it to be similar to our Shark people. The main thing is to take care of the master's daily life, complete the tasks assigned by the master, and protect the safety of the master." Jin Huan said with a look on his face. Said seriously.

Hua Jianli was dumbfounded. It turned out that Jin Huan didn't just talk about being a servant. She actually asked Hou Yueming for advice.

The book says that sharks are simple-minded and will repay kindness, and this is true.

Look at Jin Huan, what a simple and upright young man!

"Jin Huan, actually you don't have to be like this..." Hua Jianli took the copper basin and showed a kind smile.

She was not an evil master who exploited his servants. Moreover, she was used to being self-reliant and had never thought of letting Jin Huan do these things.

"Since I promised to be your servant, I will keep my promise. I will deliver the face wash. If you need anything, call me anytime." Jin Huan interrupted Hua Jianli's words, closed the door, and left.

Hua Jianli inside the door was holding a basin with a helpless look on his face. Jin Huan said it sounded innocent, but in fact he was just a stick!

At that time, she was indeed very interested in buying a shark as a servant, but looking at Jin Huan's face and demeanor, and considering the mysterious and powerful magic power of the sharks, a good knife should be used on the edge. Asking the third prince of the Sharman tribe to serve her tea and water, she felt that it was overkill and underutilized.

Forget it, let him go.

After Hua Jianli finished washing, he meditated for a while, and when it was almost two quarters to the hour, he woke up Qin Sizhu.

After they finished cleaning up, they went downstairs and saw Bai Yusheng and Hou Yueming already sitting downstairs, staring dumbfoundedly at Jin Huan serving dishes to Huajianli.

Before Hua Jianli sat down, the bowl was already full of vegetables.

After Jin Huan finished serving the dishes, he sat aside obediently.

"Junior sister Li, which market did you buy this servant from? You are so conscientious. I will try my luck tomorrow to see if I can find a foreign servant who is as good-looking and hard-working as Huan." Bai Yusheng sighed. He said, with a look of envy on his face.Hou Yueming yawned loudly, "Senior Brother Bai, don't even think about it. A servant like Huan is not someone you can pick up if you want."

Last night, Jin Huanfei took him to ask for advice on how to be a servant in the human world. He asked about everything until midnight, but Yinshi got up again.

If he had known that Shark's sleep time was so short, he would never have agreed to share a room with Jin Huan.

After Fang Juexia and Luoying came down and had breakfast, they set off to the Yamen.

Huining City Yamen is magnificent. The tall vermilion door is inlaid with golden copper rings, symbolizing authority and majesty. The stone lions in front of the Yamen are lifelike.

Walking into the gate, there are three rooms in front. The bright room is the corridor of the [-]-meter corridor. There is a "screaming drum" in the first half of the east room.

"I have contacted the Yamen people in advance. We can go directly to the lobby." Fang Juexia led five people and one shark up the stone steps, walked through the corridor, and went straight to the Yamen lobby.

Hua Jianli raised his head and saw a plaque with the word "Gong Lian" hanging high in the lobby of the government office, and a couplet with yellow characters on a black background engraved on the door: "Restrain corruption in government, greed for profit, greed for fame, don't forget about political affairs. "To cultivate integrity is to be frugal, to be frugal yourself, to be frugal and to be frugal, and to be lenient in order to maintain integrity."

The entire lobby is made of green bricks and gray tiles, dark pillars, and painted beams and beams, all blue and green.

There is a koan in the middle of the lobby. Behind the koan Taishi's chair, there is a screen. The screen is full of pictures of sea water, rivers, cliffs, clouds and wild geese.

Above the lobby, a middle-aged man is sitting on the Grand Master's chair. He wears a black gauze official hat and a black court dress. He has a thin face, a dark complexion, and a pair of charitable eyes under his light eyebrows.

Seeing Hua Jianli and his party walking in, the man stood up quickly and greeted them with a smile on his face.

"Chief Immortal, I received your message yesterday. I have been waiting here early today. You have worked hard all the way. Please sit down and have a cup of tea first."

Fang Juexia smiled and said, "Prefect Li, there is no need to be so polite. We are here mainly to understand the specific circumstances of the bride's disappearance."

"The case ten years ago was thanks to the help of the immortal elders. Now I have to trouble you again, so you should be polite. The immortal elders will sit down first, and I will tell you the details of this case."

The magistrate ordered his servants to add more tea, and after a few people sat down, he spoke.

"The disappearance of brides in Huining City started fifteen days ago, one every three days. After investigation by the yamen, it was found that the missing brides were all under 16 years old, and they were all born in a yin year with a yin time and a yin month. They were all born after worshiping. After the wedding ceremony, the bride was accompanied by her bride-to-be and her maids, but she disappeared during the time when the groom went out to entertain the guests. The auspicious time was set, and the wedding became customary. Some families were unwilling to cancel the wedding, so the yamen could only send people to protect it. But something strange Yes, there were people surrounding the new house, but the bride still disappeared without a sound, and there were no signs of struggle in the house. We suspect that this matter was not man-made."

"The time is regular and the candidate is specific. It seems that the person who kidnapped the bride has a premeditated plan." Bai Yusheng touched his chin.

"Prefect Li, have there been any newlyweds getting married in recent days?" Fang Juexia asked.

"Yes, according to the pattern of crimes committed by thieves, they will start tomorrow. There are exactly three girls under the age of 16 who were born in the Yin time, Yin month, Yin year in Huining City. Two of them have already been dissuaded from getting married, and one insists on marrying. One day we will get married." Magistrate Li nodded.

"In this case, we will stay near the new house in advance and take action immediately if there is any trouble." Fang Juexia's eyes narrowed slightly and a deep voice sounded.

"Senior brother, I have an idea." Hua Jianli, who had been listening carefully, suddenly spoke.

Everyone in the hall turned to look at her.
