"Master!"

At night, when Uncle Jiu was about to fall asleep, he heard Wencai crying from outside.

Open the door and take a look.

Wencai was in front, and several people in security uniforms were behind, carrying a body covered with white cloth.

"what happened?"

Uncle Jiu came out and asked.

"Master, as soon as Brother Heng was happy today, he appointed me as the Rongcheng security captain."

"So I went on patrol at night, and as I was walking, I suddenly heard a family shouting for help again."

"I went over and saw that he was actually a flower-picking thief."

"Who am I? I am the security captain, so I kicked the door open and shouted: Stop."

"Whoever thought of shouting, he actually jumped out of the window and ran away."

"If he runs away, I will chase him. If I chase him, I will run away."

"Running away, I thought this was not going to work. I raised my hand and shot him a few times, killing him just like that."

Wencai pointed to the white cloth behind him: "That's what's lying on it."

Uncle Jiu breathed a sigh of relief: "What did you think it was? He was just a flower-picking thief. If he dies, he will die. It is not a pity for such a person to die."

When Wencai heard this, he nodded repeatedly, and then said: "Master, I thought so too, but after I beat him to death, I discovered that this flower-picking thief was none other than Shi Shaojian, the son of Uncle Shi!"

"ah!"

Uncle Jiu was stunned for a moment.

He took two steps forward, lifted up the white cloth on the body and took a look. He suddenly felt a tightness in his chest.

"Master, you just said that it is not a pity to die for the flower-picking thief. The princes who broke the law are guilty of the same crime as the common people."

Wencai quickly expressed his opinion.

Uncle Jiu looked at the corpse, then at Wencai, and stamped his foot: "That's what I said, but in reality, the princes broke the law, so how can they be guilty of the same crime as the common people, your uncle?"

At this point, Uncle Jiu stopped talking and said instead, "You go find Ah Heng, and I'll call your senior uncles. We'll carry the body to see your senior uncle later."

Half an hour later.

A group of people went straight to the inn.

Hearing the noise outside, Shi Jian came out of the room and frowned slightly when he saw everyone: "Hurry up, what happened?"

"Big brother."

Uncle Jiu waved his hand and asked someone to carry the body up, and said in a deep voice: "Shi Shaojian broke into the house to commit murder and had evil intentions. My apprentice Wen Cai saw him and accidentally beat him to death."

"Is there such a thing?"

Shi Jian squinted his eyes, and electric light pulsed on his fingertips.

"My condolences, Senior Brother."

The exorcist Taoist priest took a step forward: "We have already asked about this matter. Shaojian got interested. It is indeed his problem. Now the victim is also here. You have seen it too. She is the daughter of the shopkeeper of Yibin Building. If you don't believe it,

Just ask her."

"Grandmaster"

Just as the shopkeeper's daughter was about to speak, Shi Jian waved his hand and said with a smile: "How could I not believe it?"

Uncle Jiu said: "Elder brother"

"No need to say it."

Shi Jian's face was serious: "Shao Jian committed an adultery and committed a crime. There are all the witnesses and physical evidence, and he is more than innocent. If you kill him, it will save me the trouble of cleaning up the family."

Upon hearing this, Uncle Jiu breathed a sigh of relief: "Senior Brother, I didn't expect you to understand justice so well. I feel relieved when you say this."

"Um."

Shi Jian smiled and said: "It's very late. You should go back to sleep. Why would such a trivial matter disturb so many people?"

"Elder brother, you should also go to bed early."

Uncle Jiu turned around and looked at everyone: "Everyone, please go back and rest. I'm really sorry that everyone came here so late."

"It's okay, right? Let's go back first." He pressed his nose numbly and shouted to Aqiang and Ahao: "Let's go back to sleep. Are you still waiting for a midnight snack?"

As soon as Mamadi left, everyone else also scattered.

After everyone had left, Zhang Heng followed Uncle Jiu out and muttered as he walked: "Uncle Master, Master Master will not give up like this."

"I know, I've known him for decades, how could I not know what kind of person he is."

Uncle Jiu looked back at the small courtyard and whispered: "We have a lot of people today, so he can only endure it. If he endures it today, he may not be able to endure it tomorrow."

"Master, what should we do?"

Wen Cai asked from the side.

"Go back and get ready. We have a reason for this. If he wants to make a move, I will just accompany him."

After Uncle Jiu finished speaking, he looked at Wencai again: "Is this really an accident?"

Wen Cai answered the wrong question: "Master, Shi Shaojian has only been in Rongcheng for a few days. He will attack whenever he sees something sexual. I am afraid this is not the first time he has done this. How could it be an accident?"

"well!"

Uncle Jiu did not ask any more questions, but patted Wencai on the shoulder and said with a pun: "You have grown up."

After saying that, he added: "Don't rush back to Wuhua. Stay in the Taoist temple for a few days before leaving."

"Yes, Master."

Wencai responded immediately.

A night of silence.

the next day.

Ma Ma Di, No. 1 Mao, Mao Xiaofang, Qian Zhenren, and Yimei Taoist all came to say goodbye early in the morning.

Uncle Jiu enthusiastically sent everyone away and once again thanked everyone for their help.

noon.

Shi Jian also left. Before leaving, he came to say goodbye to Uncle Jiu, as if nothing had happened.

After sending Shi Jian away, Gu Gu and the exorcist approached Uncle Jiu and said, "If Senior Brother leaves in a rage, maybe nothing will happen, but if he comes to say goodbye to you with a smile, we are worried that something will happen."

."

"You are overthinking, senior brother is not that kind of person."

Uncle Jiu responded and said, "You guys should go back too, I'll take care of everything here."

Gu Gu wanted to stay for a few more days, but Uncle Jiu refused.

The two had no choice but to pack up their things and leave, along with Xu Zhenren and Zhang Heng.

"Master, uncle and the others are all gone?"

Looking at Uncle Jiu who was sitting in the yard, looking at the sky in trance, Wencai and Awei looked reluctant to leave.

"If they don't leave, how can your uncle come back to take revenge?"

Uncle Jiu looked calm: "You can only commit a thief in a thousand days, but there is no one who can prevent a thief in a thousand days. If it rains, it should rain quickly. It will always be cloudy and make people more anxious."

"Master, what you said today is so profound."

Awei took Wencai and left: "We went to fold gold ingots. During the Ghost Festival, all the gold ingots were sold."

Uncle Jiu didn't answer, he just sat in the yard looking at the sky and drinking tea.

The first night was uneventful.

The third night was peaceful and peaceful.

fifth night

Click!!

There was lightning and thunder in the sky, and it was raining lightly.

Uncle Jiu painted symbols in the Taoist temple. There were yellow symbols posted everywhere on the pillars, doors, walls, and floors.

"Master, why are you putting up so many yellow talismans on a rainy day? When I came in just now, I saw that all the yellow talismans you posted in the yard were washed away by the rain, and the cinnabar formations painted on the walls and on the ground were also washed away.

"

Awei, wearing a bamboo hat and carrying a roasted chicken wrapped in oil paper, had just come back: "It's better not to be busy yet, I bought you a roasted chicken."

"Wen Cai is sleeping in the house. Let's get him up and eat together."

Uncle Jiu said without raising his head.
