I want to be a good minister

Chapter 167

"It's nothing serious, just take some medicine." The doctor continued to write the prescription, "This month, there are seven or eight patients who were struck by lightning, but it's really rare for Tian's family to be struck by lightning for two days in a row."

The doctor shook his head, and Cen Xi glanced at the middle-aged man who was still lying on the door panel. The color of his brocade was no longer visible, but it was obvious that the lightning should have struck the house, and the man suffered accordingly.

"Hey——" The boy was still in shock, "Seeing a fireball wiped down, two houses were burned down. Fortunately, the rain was heavy, and the other houses were safe."

"Doctor, the Tian's family just now was the Dahu Tian's family in the outskirts of Lin Town?" Cen Xi saw that the medicine was prescribed, and the Tian family's servant walked back with the door panel, and asked this time.

"That's right, it's the Tian family, what can be done about this natural disaster." The doctor packed his things without raising his head.

"But the Tian family on the high hillside?" When Cen Xi moved, Cen Zhidu was in Sitian College, and his good buddy was from the Tian family, and he was related to the one on the high hillside.

"You know each other?" The doctor finally raised his head, "That's right, the Tian family is a big family, so it's not surprising that we know each other. However, this lightning strike is not a good thing, so the Tian family should find a grandma who is a witch to take a look."

Cen Xi's heart skipped a beat, Grandma Shenwu, she knew that Father Cen, as a wizard, had maintained a long-term friendly and non-cooperative relationship with wizards and grandma Shenwu in several surrounding towns.

In this line of work, the man is honored as a wizard, and the woman is called a witch grandma.The doctor's words reminded Cen Xi that he couldn't recommend himself, and needed a partner.

Cen Xi asked the uncle next door to send Sha Niang and Cen Qing back first. Seeing this, the uncle next door knew that Cen Xi was worried about money, so he readily agreed, and took Cen Qing and Sha Niang back first.

Cen Xi sold all the remaining hares and pheasants in the package, hired a donkey, asked the residence of the most famous grandma witch in Lin Town, and rushed over.

The road was not far away, after turning around the post house, it took only a quarter of an hour for Cen Xi to arrive.But he didn't want to be told that Grandma Shenwu had gone out to the altar, but anyone who came to the door for business would refuse. The young disciple who guarded the door immediately said that Grandma Shenwu had been away for half a day now, and she should be back now.

So Cen Xi and the other two waited in the pergola set up in front of the house. Cen Xi was bored, so he looked at the two waiting people outside, and then found that the two were foreigners, and they were dressed in fine clothes The quality of the clothes is not only the material, but also the corners of the stitches are smooth, which is not like what ordinary country girls can make.

So Cen Xi was puzzled, what Grandma Shenwu knew was at best a harmless deception to fool the people, and the two people in front of her didn't seem to be able to be fooled by such a deception.

When Cen Xi was wondering, the witch grandma had already returned, her half-haired hair was combed neatly, she walked vigorously, and her fat body was wrapped in a patterned cloth shirt. Cen Xi immediately rated this image—— — Not as good as Cen's father, only Cen's father's Taoist-like robes, square ears, and his image alone can take up a lot of light.

However, when Cen Xi recalled it carefully, Father Cen's appearance was pretty good, but Cen Xi didn't quite resemble him, but Father Cen said that Cen Xi looked like a dead mother.

"Grandma Shenwu—" On the contrary, the two of them took a step forward with a respectful attitude. When Grandma Shenwu saw the two of them, she had the same intuition as Cen Xi, that this was not her type.

Grandma Shenwu had seen the world, coughed, and then made a gesture of please, and the two followed Grandma Shenwu into the house very politely. Normally, Cen Xi could go in together in such a situation. But as soon as Cen Xi arrived at the door, one of the two blocked the door and politely asked Cen Xi to wait for a while.

It means to keep Cen Xi from going in.

Cen Xi didn't force it, and took a step back, still sitting in the awning.

But this room is not soundproof, this is obviously not unexpected by the mysterious two people, so Cen Xi can clearly hear the sound coming from the room.

"Grandma Shenwu, we want to find someone." Cen Xi was taken aback for a moment. He didn't expect that Grandma Shenwu's business had expanded so widely, and she even took care of finding people?

"Two big brothers, you have found the wrong person. You cannot take over the job if you are looking for someone." Grandma Shenwu said immediately. , It is to be able to control the consequences. These two people can see that they are either rich or expensive. This is something that can be done after receiving money. It is better to do two more businesses of praying for rain, praying for blessings, and asking ghosts.

"Grandma Shenwu, don't rush to refuse. Our master's reward is 100 taels of silver. As long as you find someone, you can send news to Fenglai Inn in Lin Town. This is a deposit of five taels of silver. As long as Grandma Shenwu Pay attention to see if there is such a woman in Lin Town." Cen Xi didn't pay attention to the sound of paper rustling in the room.

The two left quickly without delay, and Cen Xi followed in, and the grandma, the witch, had already put away the portrait.

"Young master, what are you asking for?" Grandma Shenwu was a little puzzled, why are the people here today a little strange?
"Send a note to Grandma Shenwu." This is jargon, and it is the beginning of Father Cen's cooperation with other town wizards and unfriendly business partners.

The grandma witch was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Cen Xi up and down.

"Unexpectedly, at such a young age——"

"Grandma Shenwu misunderstood, my father is a wizard, and I'm just running errands." Cen Xi said with a very humble and polite manner.

"Okay, what's your note?" Seeing this, Grandma Shenwu didn't want to do business when she came to her door, and if the other party came to visit, it meant that the business was profitable.

"Does Grandma Shenwu know about the Tian family in the suburbs?"

"The Tian family that was struck by lightning?" Grandma Shenwu froze for a moment, then shook her head again.

"Why, young master, is he going to compete with the sky for business?" Grandma Shenwu continued to ask, she naturally knew about this, and she naturally had her own channel to become a grandma wizard in this area.

"I have a way to prevent the Tian family from being struck by lightning again." Cen Xi said.

"Young master, what a loud tone." Grandma Shenwu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly wanted to laugh, then shook her head.

"Young master, this is not how we do business. I might as well go find someone for your business—" As she spoke, Grandma Shenwu took out a portrait, which was made of precious rice paper, and pointed to It looked like a very abstract portrait in the past, "Look, it's 100 taels of silver."

"Grandma Shenwu, I have my own way to prevent the Tian family from being struck by lightning. If you believe me, you will get half of the income. This trip is at least 80 taels. You only recommend, and I will do it. You're fine—" Seeing this, Cen Xi said again.

"Success, since you know the way, I'll accompany you for a walk—" Grandma Shenwu heard the 40 taels, so she threw it away where she was willing, and she agreed.

Cen Xi heaved a sigh of relief, bid farewell to Grandma Shenwu, and went out of the yard. Two figures slowly emerged from the roof, they were the two strange people from before.

As soon as the two of them left the room, they realized that Cen Xi had heard their conversation clearly from outside.

The two glanced at each other, the meaning was very clear, Cen Xi heard their conversation, and even looked at the portrait, it seemed that they couldn't stay, so he chased after Cen Xi's figure.
