Chapter 159
Bai Xiaoxi stood up, didn't respond to the woman's rejection, but frowned and looked at Gao Lingqiu who was walking away step by step, with worried eyes.

"Xiaoxi," Su Ze said, "I'm afraid the death energy on Xiaoqiu's body is not short-lived, it seems to be contaminated somewhere."

Bai Xiaoxi nodded, "Well, if it wasn't for the dead air emanating from her own breath, it would explain why Fanfan didn't resist her. It's just, how could she, a young girl, get such corrosive What about the death of sex?"

Bai Yun noticed that someone was watching them, so she walked up to Bai Xiaoxi and said, "Sister, let's go back to the bookstore and talk."

Bai Xiaoxi nodded, and walked back together with a few people, saying, "It turns out that this kind of corrosive death energy is more likely to be absorbed by the sick and weak, or women with heavier Yin energy. But Xiaoqiu doesn't care about it." Belonging to these two types of people, why exactly?"

Bai Lu looked at Bai Xiaoxi, and guessed, "Would someone want to harm her?"

Bai Yun said, "She's a little girl, who would want to harm her?"

Bai Lu nodded, "Yes."

Bai Xiaoxi looked at Su Ze again, "Su Ze, what do you think?"

Su Ze thought for a while and said, "It's really hard to guess, but I noticed another thing just now. I don't know if Xiaoxi has seen it."

Bai Xiaoxi asked, "What's the matter?"

Su Ze said, "The supermarket is near the inside. It seems to be a place to eat. There is a spiritual seat and incense. It doesn't look like someone who has passed away for a long time, but I can't see whose spiritual seat it is."

Bai Xiaoxi frowned, "Spiritual position?"

Bai Lu looked at Su Ze, "Handsome Su has such good eyes!"

Su Ze smiled. In fact, he saw the words on the spirit tablet, but because of his identity, he couldn't reveal so much, so he deliberately said that he didn't see clearly, and only provided Bai Xiaoxi with a clue.

Bai Xiaoxi thought for a while, and then said to the people around him, "Don't go back yet, let's go to Old Man Meng's shop on the next street and ask. If there is a funeral in this area, we will buy wreaths from his shop. , I guess he can know something."

Su Ze nodded naturally, and Bai Lu and Bai Yun agreed because nothing happened.

Afterwards, a few people walked to the next street. Old man Meng's store was located in the middle of this commercial street with few merchants. When they walked over, they saw old man Meng sitting with his legs crossed on several wreaths of different sizes. Next to him, holding a small kettle, drinking tea while looking at the book in his hand.

"Old man Meng." Bai Xiaoxi walked over and called him.

Old man Meng looked up, was taken aback for a moment, and then immediately smiled, "Oh, rare visitor, why did Xiaoxi come to my place?" He stood up while talking, and put the purple clay pot and book in his hand on the chair.

Bai Xiaoxi took a look and found that the book was borrowed by old man Meng from his shop two days ago.

"Come in and sit? Lulu Yunyun is here too? Have you eaten in the morning? I have snacks from my hometown here, do you want to eat?" Old man Meng warmly invited a few people to sit in the shop.

Bai Lu curled her lips and shook her head, "Sister, I don't want to go in, it's very eerie inside and looks scary."

Bai Yun laughed at her, "Are you still afraid of this? There are many more scary houses in our old house than this one, and you run with all your might every time."

The corner of old man Meng's mouth twitched, and he thought, you two girls, why don't you bury my wreath and shroud shop?

Bai Xiaoxi and Su Ze walked into Old Man Meng's shop. It was the first time for Su Ze to come here, and he was still a bit fresh. Looking around, he found those shrouds that he often saw ghosts passing through in the ghost world, so he went over Look carefully at the patterns.

Old man Meng smiled and poured water for a few people, and then took out the special products from his hometown that Sun Qingqing brought for them to eat, and asked with a smile, "Xiaoxi came here on purpose today, what's the matter?"

Bai Xiaoxi nodded, "Well, there is something I want to ask you."

Old man Meng sat down at the table and nodded, "Well, you can ask me what you want."

Bai Xiaoxi said, "On my street, there is a supermarket called Minsheng. Has someone passed away recently?"

Old man Meng frowned and thought for a while, "Minsheng Supermarket? Oh, are you talking about Gao Minsheng's house? Yes, but the funeral has been going on for a while, not the recent one. What happened to their house?"

Bai Xiaoxi exchanged glances with Su Ze who came back, and then said, "There is a girl in their family who looks like seven or eight years old, do you remember?"

Old man Meng nodded, "Xiaoqiu, remember, what a fun girl, something happened to her?"

Bai Xiaoxi said, "I saw her this morning and found that she had a dead breath."

"What?!" Old man Meng was startled, "No way, this girl is usually very lively, she doesn't seem to be..."

Bai Xiaoxi nodded, "Well, it's really not her own problem, it seems to be infected elsewhere."

Old man Meng frowned, "It was contaminated elsewhere... Xiaoxi, do you suspect that it has something to do with the death of someone in her family?"

Bai Xiaoxi nodded again.

Old man Meng thought for a while and said, "Her family was last month, and grandpa passed away. I personally helped his family organize the funeral, and there was nothing unusual at that time! If Xiaoqiu was infected at that time I'm so angry, it's not too early..."

After pondering for a while, Bai Xiaoxi said, "This matter is really strange, but Xiaoqiu's lifelessness has not lasted for a day or two, but I am also very surprised why he is still safe and sound."

Old man Meng looked at Bai Xiaoxi, "Xiaoxi, do you want to take care of this matter? Didn't your Bai family's family training say that you should not casually touch unentrusted matters?"

Bai Xiaoxi nodded, "Well, I'm just a little concerned. After all, Xiao Qiu appeared in front of me today, and I always feel that I can't ignore it. Old man Meng, can you help me go to Xiao Qiu's house?"

Old man Meng nodded, "Well, yes, but what are you going to do?"

Bai Xiaoxi said, "It would be the best if I could persuade Xiao Qiu's family to believe that Xiao Qiu is possessed by an evil spirit instead of being ill. In this way, if their family entrusts me to expel Xiao Qiu's dead energy, I can investigate this matter logically. It's over."

Old man Meng agreed without hesitation, "That's no problem, but if Xiao Qiu and his family don't believe me, then what will you do?"

Bai Xiaoxi looked at the books old man Meng put on the small chair outside, and said, "If you can't talk to their family, then don't borrow books from my store in the future."

"Huh?!" Old man Meng stared, then turned bitter, "It's alright, alright, little ancestor, I will try my best, okay?"

Bai Xiaoxi smiled.

Old man Meng rubbed his hands together again, and with a compensatory smile, he approached Bai Xiaoxi and said with a smile, "Well, Xiaoxi..."

Bai Xiaoxi glanced at him.

"If this matter is done, hehe," Old Man Meng laughed again, "Can you lend me the copy of "The Origin of Maoshan Mountain"?"

"The Origin of Maoshan"? !

Su Ze was shocked, and immediately looked at Bai Xiaoxi.

Bai Xiaoxi didn't notice Su Ze's expression, but gave old man Meng a sideways glance, "Why do you keep thinking about that book? You know that book is not easily borrowed."

Old Man Meng laughed, "Oh! I'll just take a look! I won't let others see it, will I? You see, your father and I are considered close friends. We've known each other for so long. Let me take a look. Nothing to lose, is there?"

Bai Xiaoxi thought for a while and said, "Okay, if this is done, I'll let you watch it for a day."

"Just one day?!" Old man Meng wanted to bargain, but before he opened his mouth, Bai Xiaoxi interrupted him.

"Only one day, if there is more, we can't discuss it, otherwise we won't borrow it."

"Okay, okay, one day at a time." Old man Meng compromised, "Then you just wait for my good news!"

Bai Xiaoxi nodded, stood up and wanted to leave, suddenly remembered something, then turned to old man Meng, "By the way, what happened after the ghost photo last time?"

Old man Meng also thought of it, and said, "Oh, after I handed over what I had to the police, there really was a policeman over there who had been paying attention to this matter, and immediately started investigating again. However, the efficiency of the police's work, you I know it, and there are few people, and the investigation is very slow now, and there is still a lack of strong evidence, so there is no progress yet."

Bai Xiaoxi nodded, "Yes, I see, come to me if you need my help."

Old man Meng got up with a smile, and sent Bai Xiaoxi and the others out.Before Bai Lu and Bai Yun left, they grabbed a lot of special products on the table and took them away. While eating, they complained that they were unpalatable, which made old man Meng look funny and angry.

On the way back, Su Ze asked Bai Xiaoxi seemingly unintentionally, "Xiaoxi, what book did old man Meng tell you just now? Is it very precious?"

Bai Xiaoxi smiled, "It's not that it's precious or not, it's just that this book is a book handed down by my Bai family ancestors, and it involves many family affairs, as well as the methods of ghost cultivation. Generally, outsiders are not allowed to read it casually." of."

Su Ze's eyes changed, and he said, "Then you promise to lend it to him, is it okay?"

Bai Xiaoxi shook his head, "It doesn't matter, those things can't be seen through just once or twice."

Su Ze looked at her, and beside her, Bai Lu was biting a piece of duck pancake, and handed a pack to Bai Xiaoxi while eating, "Sister, try it, it tastes pretty good."

Bai Xiaoxi reached out to take it, but didn't eat it. Her injured stomach can't digest these things now, "Didn't you say it tastes bad? Why do you say it tastes good?"

Bai Lu chuckled, "I deliberately made that old man angry."

Bai Yun also nodded, and what she held was a piece of cloud cake, "Hey, big sister, old man Meng has quite a lot of snacks! Let him make more next time, it's really delicious."

Bai Xiaoxi couldn't help but smile wryly at being teased by these two younger sisters, she shook her head and continued to walk back.

Su Ze looked back at old man Meng's wreath and shroud shop, and knew that the best time to get "The Origin of Maoshan Mountain" had come.

When they walked back to the bookstore again, they saw an old man in a suit and leather shoes standing in front of him. Bai Xiaoxi looked familiar. When he walked over to have a look, he found that it was Gao Weimin whom he hadn't seen for a while.
