Martial Cultivator Chapter 124: Invitation
Opposite the government office, the gate of Shenhua Mansion is open.
Under the steps, Chen Liu led a shiny and strong horse and walked from time to time, but he did not dare to set foot in the Shenhua Mansion, which was clearly unguarded.
He looked cautious and lowered his head, not daring to look at the majestic and towering government office opposite. He only occasionally poked his head to look at both ends of the street.
Obviously waiting for Wang An to come back.
At this time, Uncle Zheng went to buy groceries and prepare lunch.
There were also several guards in the mansion, who asked Chen Liu to hand over the horse to them and then leave.
Chen Liu refused.
Insisted on waiting for Wang An to come back.
I said I have something important to tell you.
In this way, the doorman will no longer insist.
At this time, a sound of trumpets and suonas came from far away from the other side of the street. A group of people dressed in red and green walked towards this end happily, spreading wedding candies along the way.
The procession for picking up the bride stretched across the middle of the long street.
A lot of wedding candy was sprinkled up and down the steps.
A disciple happily congratulated the team, picked up the wedding candies on the ground and distributed them to several companions.
Chen Liu also bent down to pick up a few candies around him and put them into his arms.
At this moment, a woman who was surrounded by a sedan chair in the middle of the queue suddenly rushed out of the queue, ran to Chen Liu as if being chased by a ghost, and directly stuffed a volume of red paper into his arms.
When the servants saw this scene, they were all surprised.
The woman opened her mouth again and seemed to say something to Chen Liu.
It's just that the sound of banging and percussion instruments was too loud. The servants were not beside Chen Liu, so naturally they couldn't hear clearly what the mother-in-law said.
Before the mother-in-law could finish speaking, several more people rushed out of the wedding reception team and dragged the mother-in-law back.
A servant noticed that the woman looked anxious and her face was full of tears.
I suddenly became suspicious.
The wedding team left slowly.
The doorman turned around and saw that Chen Liu looked a little strange. He immediately knew that there might be something fishy about this matter and couldn't help but ask: "Master, what did the mother-in-law say to you?"
Chen Liu was wearing a police officer's uniform, with the word "capture" prominently written on the back.
The identity is self-explanatory.
The servants naturally knew how to call him.
Chen Liu held the red note that his mother-in-law gave him and was about to reply when he heard a servant shout: "Master Xiao Wang is back!"
Lord Xiao Wang!
Chen Liu turned his head quickly.
Sure enough, Wang An brought Mo Yun, who had transformed into a human form, and grabbed a handful of wedding candies and sprinkled them over: "This family is so proud to get married. I picked up a lot of wedding candies and ate one of them, which made me feel happy."
"Hey, thank you Mr. Xiao Wang!"
"I picked up a few just now, but I haven't had time to eat them yet..."
Mending responded with a smile and picked up the wedding candy.
The White Donkey Immortal is responsible for most of the internal affairs of the Shenhua Mansion, and these guards are all hired by him.
Wang An has a peaceful personality and is friendly, so he naturally gets along well with the servants.
"Here you go, the last one." He took out another candy from his arms and handed it to Chen Liu, who looked cautious and at a loss. "Thank you for helping me bring the horse.
The Shenhua Mansion and the Mansion Government are not under each other.
But you led the way to Shenhua Mansion yesterday and fought bravely to capture the demons and ghosts. I will never treat you badly. ”
With that said, Wang An took out an ingot of ten taels of silver from his storage bag and handed it to Chen Liu: "This is the reward from Shenhua Mansion!"
The government knows that Chen Liu has done things for Shenhua Mansion, so there is probably no reward.
Chen Liu never thought that he was just running errands. He wanted to chase Mr. Xiao Wang and others in the middle of the night, but he was entangled by the demon. In fact, he was suspected of holding them back, and he was rewarded with such a heavy reward of ten taels of silver. !
He felt warm in his heart, and gritted his teeth to resist the urge to take the money.
He bowed to Wang An and said, "Sir, someone from the government office just now came to me to ask questions, but I, I didn't come over!"
What does this mean?
Wang An was stunned when he heard the words, and then he understood.
He smiled and still slapped a piece of silver into Chen Liu's hand: "It is common for Shenhua Mansion to handle cases involving demons and ghosts.
What's more, most of the time, the government office doesn't like me handling the case and will obstruct it.
He even personally participated in killing people.
Just like today's case.
It seems like evil ghosts are causing trouble, but in fact there is evil hidden behind the evil ghosts.
It is said that evil spirits harm human lives, but it is because the government officials support them.
If you enter the Shenhua Mansion, you will not only have to face all kinds of weird and terrifying things, but also secular powers will put pressure on your parents and relatives. A practitioner can even kill your whole family with a spell!
Go back.
Just be your best detective. ”
"I, I have no father or mother!" After hearing what Wang An said, Chen Liu's face turned red suddenly, and he held back a sentence for a long time.
Wang An frowned: "How can you be a police officer without a father and a mother?"
Most of the yamen agents inherited their father's business from their sons, and there was almost no agent whose father had not done the same job.
“I bumped up against fellow countryman Chen Yong’s spot as a police officer.
At that time, a haunting case had just occurred in our area. Chen Yong was not admitted to the government office as a police officer, but instead became an inspection policeman.
He was afraid of running into these things, so I used the money I saved to trade this job with him! "Chen Liu handed another twelve taels of silver to Wang An, but refused to accept it.
What he wants is not ten taels of silver.
Rather, he was doing business in Shenhua Mansion.
Wang An was silent for a long time after hearing this.
After that.
He looked Chen Liu up and down and said with a smile: "In this case, you have no worries or fears, and you only want to work in Shenhua Mansion, so I will allow it!
You go back and pack your things, and then move into the house!
These ten taels of silver are still left to you. Is there any reason to take back the reward I gave you? ”
"Hey, yes!"
Chen Liu was overjoyed when he heard this, thanked him repeatedly, handed the horse's reins and a red note into Wang An's arms, happily said goodbye to Wang An, and turned around to go home to pack his things.
"Wait!" At this time, Wang An called him.
Passing the reins of the strong horse into his hand again, he said with a smile: "You are going to move, do you have to walk back and come here again?
What a waste of time.
Ride back and use it to help you pull things over. ”
"Thank you, sir, thank you, sir!" Chen Liu responded quickly, feeling even more moved in his heart.
Although Mr. Xiao Wang is younger than me, in front of him, I feel as if I have met an elder in the family.
I have never felt this way before.
"Yeah."
Wang An nodded and saw that there was still a piece of red paper in his hand.
The word 'invitation' is written on the red paper.
When I opened it, I found it was an invitation.
The names and surnames of the invitees are not written, but are left blank. Only the names of the inviters-the newlyweds and their parents are written.
Look at the date, it’s the wedding banquet at noon today.
"This invitation..."
Wang An suddenly felt a little weird when he saw the wedding reception team that had just walked across the street.
When Chen Liu saw the red note, his expression changed, and he immediately remembered what the woman said in tears when she rushed out of the team and came to him.
He quickly said: "In the wedding reception team just now, a woman beside the bride's sedan rushed over and gave me this invitation. There were tears on her face and she seemed to be frightened. She said something to me. , let me save her daughter.
Said that after tonight, her daughter would be dead! ”
