I was just solving crimes, how could I become an immortal?

Chapter 66 Burning Leg Hair

Qiwen Building, the largest trading house in the ghost market.

The owner behind it is none other than the famous merchants in Shangjing City: the Feng family.

His son was the minister of the Ministry of War, and the Feng family also used this relationship to obtain a lot of illegal goods that could not be circulated in the market, and they were operating in a prosperous business in the ghost market.

Of course, the Feng family themselves would not live in a ghost market.

They are not stupid. After making money in that gloomy ghost market, they naturally want to live in the sunny city. At this moment, they are located in a villa on the outskirts of the city.

A large family lived neatly in another courtyard, and then they were all poisoned together.

"I'll arrange for a carriage to come over and pick you up."

"No, let's take Ma Lao's car. His car is smooth and comfortable. I also want to stop by a teahouse."

Cao An had ridden in many carriages, and the bumps on the wooden wheels were unbearable. Only Ma Lao's carriage could make him feel comfortable.

According to what Ying Huorong said, Mr. Ma used to drive a chariot. He went into battle to kill the enemy as if there were no one around, so a small chariot was no problem.

As the only Shui Xiu working in the Tsing Yi Department, Cao An naturally transferred Mr. Ma away without ceremony and made him his driver and bodyguard.

As for the teahouse that Cao An is going to, it is naturally the only property of their Tsing Yi Department.

After a few days of renovation, the teahouse finally looks more upscale. Although it is still deserted, the price of 10 taels of silver per bowl of tea can always attract some curiosity seekers.

For example, Pang Duzhi had no intention of drinking tea, but when he saw that a bowl of tea cost ten taels of silver, was there anything strange about it?
  "Boss, try two bowls of tea."

Look, this business just comes to you.

Qi Yi, who had changed his career to be a storyteller, saw this person's dress and guessed Pang Shi's identity, so he quickly went back to the house to ask Mr. Zhuang for relevant stories.

Soon, a piece of "Imperial City Division Battles Wuming Tower" that doubled the number of enemies appeared in front of him, and Pang Shi was fascinated by it.

As for Cao An, he was not in the mood to listen.

After taking a sip of tea, he put the tea money on Pang Shi's head, turned around and sent the herbs Tinder had picked in the past few days to the counter, and then went to the kitchen alone.

From a distance, I saw Xiaojiu squatting next to the bucket.

For those who are not familiar with it, they might think that this little cutie is watching the fish swim and is obedient and obedient.

Familiar, she knew very well in her heart that she was waiting for the fish to turn her belly.

"Xiaojiu, are you good today?" Cao An called softly.

The answer she got was naturally Xiaojiu's cold words: "What a boring question. Do you think I'm a child?"

Cao An smiled slightly and took out a bunch of candied haws from behind.

"Well, I'm very good today." Xiaojiu gave up watching the fish, took the candied haws and started to chew on it.

But then, doubt appeared in his calm eyes for the first time: "You seem to have a chance to survive?"

The crisis has eased!
  Cao An unconsciously clenched his fists and gave himself an encouragement.

When you are a police officer, you will encounter crises all the time, and there are only two ways to resolve the crisis: see through the enemy's plot and work hard to improve your strength.

Regarding the enemy's plan, Cao An doesn't have a clue yet, but he has systematic help in improving his strength.

Solving the case will reward [Tian Yuan Yi Qi], which is completely beyond the scope of destiny, allowing Cao An to complete a rapid improvement. This is the confidence to change his destiny against the will of heaven.

Of course, in Xiaojiu's eyes, Cao An just went from black to purple, then to black and green. Anyway, it's all black. The crisis is still not resolved, and he still needs to work hard.

"Thank you. That's it for today. Xiaojiu, come and play with me when you have time!"

"Well, remember to tell me before you die."

After bidding farewell to the friendly Xiao Jiu, Cao An returned to the teahouse and pulled up Pang Shi who was fascinated by the story.

"Let's go, let's go investigate the case." "Wait a moment, we haven't finished hearing the story yet, it's the most critical moment."

oh? Yeah? Is it the most critical moment?

Cao An raised his eyebrows slightly at Qi Yi on the storytelling table. Qi Yi understood, picked up the paper fan and tapped the table gently: "If you want to know what happened next, please listen to the explanation next time."

Pangshi:......

……

Passing through the bluestone road in the city, the wheels turned gracefully on the gravel dirt road in the suburbs.

Several heavy rains in recent days made the jungle hills beside the road look full of life. From time to time, two long-tailed sparrows would land on the car window, chirping and making noise with the tinder.

There was still some distance to go from the Feng family's villa, and Cao An was not idle. He lowered his head and thought for a while, and decided to let the talented Pang Duzhi opposite him give him some advice.

"Man Pangda, I want to ask you a very profound question."

"You said."

"If you were asked to choose: leg hair, foot wraps, or smelly cloth shoes, which one would you choose?"

"...This question is indeed very profound."

Pang Shi prides himself on being able to think quickly and debate quickly, but when faced with this problem, his eyes darkened.

After all, none of these things sounds good.

"Do you have to choose one?"

"Yes, I have to choose one."

"Then, how about just leg hair? At least it doesn't smell that strong."

"Yeah, I think so too."

Cao An finally got out of the tangle. It was not easy to choose one of three rewards this time!
  Detective rewards are evaluated based on the strength of the case.

A man with a wretched face was falsely accused of molesting a widow. The case sounded ordinary at first glance, and the reward was naturally pitiful, so he put off choosing it until now.

"Congratulations on solving the South Street Widow Case, the detective rewards have begun to be distributed."

"Please choose one of the following three rewards:"

"1. Burning leg hair (ninth-grade treasure): It can replace the fire fold, and every leg hair can make fire."

"2. Widow Wang's foot-binding cloth (collection): It has a unique look and feel, and a long-lasting fragrance. The longer it is stored, the stronger the smell. If you find a collector who likes it, it may be sold at a high price."

"3. Stinky cloth shoes (ninth grade treasure): A must-have treasure for traveling monks. They are of the right size, comfortable to wear, and will not wear out even after traveling thousands of miles."

……

There is no detective talent, and there is no reward for [Tian Yuan Yi Qi]. There are only three things that look a bit stupid.

Regarding foot-binding cloths, Cao An definitely has no interest in it. Moreover, collectors who like this item don't know where to find it. Even if they choose it, it may be difficult to sell it.

The smelly cloth shoes look good, are absolutely comfortable and never wear out, which are very good features.

The downside is that it's ugly and smells bad.

If the shoes are broken, you can replace them, but being handsome is a lifelong thing, and Cao An really can't bear these two shortcomings.

It is better to choose the burning leg hair. If you encounter the wild survival in the future, you can still pluck out some of them and light a fire.

Jingle bell~~
  The ringing of the brass bells on the carriage stopped, and Mr. Ma’s cigarette ended.

When the car stopped, Cao An opened the car curtain and saw the smoky Feng Family Courtyard.
