Chapter 116: A hundred secrets and a sparse(2/2)

Hearing this, he frowned slightly. During the day, Wen Gongyi had said that he would send Yu Yi over to check. The nun the waiter mentioned was undoubtedly Yu Yi, but why did Yu Yi come to the inn?

After pondering, he said to the waiter, "I'll get dressed right away. Please ask them to come up."

The waiter left in response and got up to get dressed. At the same time, he was thinking anxiously in his heart. If Yu Yi found out the clues, Dali Temple should have sent people to arrest him by now. The waiter would never be allowed to come up and pass the news. If nothing happens,

Yu Yi probably didn't have any conclusive evidence, but he found something suspicious. He probably came here to ask him for questioning.

Not long after, there was another knock on the door. I went to open the door. Standing outside the door were Yu Yi and a young woman in her early twenties. Yu Yi was wearing a cassock, and the young woman was wearing a Dali robe.

The official uniform of the temple.

The two of them had traveled a lot and were obviously returning from a long journey.

"Amitabha, Taoist Master, you are polite." Yu Yi put his hands together in greeting.

"Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, Master is polite, sir, you are polite." He returned the greeting.

"Taoist Priest, we are officials of Dali Temple, and we want to ask you something." Yu Yi said.

After nodding, he raised his hand sideways and invited the two of them to enter the room.

"No, we're right at the door." Yu Yi shook his head, "Excuse me, Chief Taoist, have you ever stayed in Yizhuang, Yulin Town, in the south?"

>

"I don't know if it belongs to Yulin Town, but I did live in a charity village for a while." He said.

"Is there a deep thatched grassland in the southwest of the Yizhuang you mentioned?" Yu Yi asked.

"There is indeed a thatched field near Yizhuang, but it is not in the southwest, but in the northeast." He said.

Yu nodded and asked again, "Do you use thatch to make a fire at night?"

Shaking his head, "It's not thatch, it's branches."

"Willow branches?" Yu Yi asked.

"It's not a willow branch, it's a locust tree branch," he said.

Yu Yi turned to look at the young woman beside him, who nodded slightly.

"What did the Taoist priest eat during his stay in Nayizhuang?" Yu Yi asked again.

"Dry food." replied.

"Besides dry food, what else is there?" Yu Yi asked again and again.

"There are some fruits." replied.

"What kind of fruit?" Yu Yi asked.

"Pumpkin, cassava." replied.

After saying that, Yu Yi looked at the young woman again. The latter nodded slightly, indicating that the answer was consistent with the results of his investigation.

"The Taoist priest had previously painted talismans to subdue demons in Yizhuang?" Yu Yi asked again.

Shaking his head, "It's not about subduing demons, it's about exorcising ghosts."

"What kind of spell was used?" Yu Yi asked.

"Qianyang Talisman and Zhenyin Talisman." replied.

"Can the Taoist Master please draw two more pictures?" Yu Yi asked.

"No, I'm very tired and my hands are weak." He said coldly.

Seeing that he was a little annoyed, Yu Yi turned to look at the woman who was traveling with him. The latter stepped forward and asked, "Hello, Taoist Priest, I am Dali Temple Detective Zhang Ziyan. Please give us the piece of yellow paper you used."

He raised his eyebrows and glanced at the woman, then turned back to the bedside, opened the bag, took out a piece of talisman, returned to the door and handed it to the other person.

Zhang Ziyan took the talisman and asked again, "Excuse me, Chief Taoist, apart from firewood, what else have you burned in the fire pit?"

"I don't remember." He tilted his head to the side.

"Taoist Priest, we are also following orders, please don't embarrass us." Zhang Ziyan was helpless.

Seeing her unkempt hair and face, he couldn't bear to continue to make things difficult for her, saying, "horse manure."

"Why are you burning horse manure?" Zhang Ziyan asked.

"Destroy the corpse and eliminate all traces." He said.

Seeing that you were not cooperating again, Zhang Ziyan sighed helplessly, "Taoist Priest, tell the truth. After verification, we have confirmed that what you told is the truth, but we will always go back to report your duties, so you can tell the truth."

"My horse is naturally poisonous, and the horse manure is also poisonous. If it is not burned, it may encounter rainwater and the poison will spread." He said.

"Thank you, Taoist Priest," Zhang Ziyan said after thanking her, "Taoist Priest, where is your horse now? Can we pick up its excrement?"

He said casually, "In the stable in the backyard, there have just been a lot of chickens. Go pick them up, but you'd better be careful. They not only kick people, but also bite them."

"Thank you, Taoist Priest, for reminding me." Zhang Ziyan raised her hand to thank her, then walked downstairs.

"There's so much trouble, Taoist priest, please take a rest early." Yu Yi put his hands together and said.

"No." He reached out and closed the door.

At this moment, Yu Yi quickly took action, stuffed something into his hand, and walked away quickly, "Zi Yan, wait for me."

Unexpectedly, Yu Yi stuffed something into his hand. It was a piece of yellow paper folded many times. After closing the door, he opened the folded yellow paper, which was no bigger than a fingernail.

When the yellow paper was completely unfolded, the souls of the deceased suddenly emerged. This yellow paper was not an ordinary yellow paper, but a talisman paper with words written in cinnabar, which turned out to be a prescription.

Among the three people living in Yizhuang that day, there was an old woman who was seriously ill. Before he sent the three people away as a gift of silver, he had written a prescription for the old woman. What Yu Yi gave him was written in his own handwriting.
