Originally, the abbot was in charge of logistics in the supernatural power department. Apart from logistics, all other people had supernatural powers and were gifted.

The abbot dared not offend anyone, so he developed a good ability to observe people's words and expressions.

As soon as he glanced at Butler Zhao, he knew that this guy was a flatterer, who loved to take advantage of small opportunities and hear nice words. He would flatter him if he was given a little benefit.

The Yuan Mansion was not very big. The abbot knew that their family was in the business of medicinal materials and grains, which mainly came from their own estate outside the city. Judging from the family's situation, the business should be average.

Of course, it is much better than that of ordinary people.

"Master, please come this way," Butler Zhao pointed to the Moon Gate.

The abbot looked at him. At this time, his eyes had basically recovered, but there were still some bloodshot in the whites of his eyes.

The abbot clasped his hands together and said, "I haven't thanked you yet."

Butler Zhao was confused: "Thank me for what?"

"I observed the stars last night and sensed that there was an evil spirit here. However, this is a secret of heaven and cannot be easily disclosed. As a result, my eyes were injured. At that time, I thought my eyes were in danger!"

"At this time, two white lights dissipated the evil spirit and saved me. Therefore, I came to your house today, firstly to dispel the evil spirit, and secondly to find someone to save my life."

"Now that I see you, I can conclude that you are one of the benefactors who saved me."

The abbot scratched in his purse and took out an old copper coin. He handed it to Butler Zhao and said, "This is a protective copper coin. It has been blessed by my master and offered in front of dozens of great gods. I am giving it to you today."

Butler Zhao was overjoyed and smiled with joy. Firstly, because it turned out to be a body of white light, and secondly, because he got this protective copper coin.

He quickly took it with both hands: "Thank you, Master, you are so polite."

The abbot changed the subject: "From the look of your face, you should be more than just a housekeeper in this mansion, right?"

Butler Zhao opened his eyes wide: "You are amazing. You can see this? Yes, I am more than just a butler."

He straightened his back and said, "I am still the uncle of the master of this mansion."

The abbot laughed secretly. You just called the old lady "sister", who wouldn't know that?

"Then I'm sure you can tell nothing about the affairs of this mansion," the abbot said, walking to a rockery, "Are there any improper people or things in this mansion? Please tell me in detail."

Butler Zhao looked around and said, "You've asked the right person!"

"The most wrong person in this mansion is the woman who was divorced by my nephew! I was the one who went to inquire about her in the beginning. The young lady of the Mu family lost her mother when she was a teenager. How could she have a good temper?"

Butler Zhao curled his lips and said, "He doesn't look that good, and he doesn't look like a little bird at all. But my sister said that the Mu family has an official position, and he is the descendant of Duke Dingguo, so he will be able to turn things around soon in the future. She has always wanted my nephew to pursue a career in the government and get a job as an official."

"She was determined and didn't listen to me. What happened? After I married her, everything was in chaos. The woman had a gloomy face all day long, as if someone owed her a lot of money."

The abbot thought, your nephew is a eunuch, and he is also a domestic abuser. Who can give you a good face? Do you still expect others to welcome you with a smile? You are just dreaming.

"That's not all. She didn't even lay an egg. That would have been fine, but she also caused the concubine's child to miscarry. This is intentional to make my nephew childless!"

Butler Zhao was heartbroken: "Tell me, is there such a vicious woman?"

The abbot didn't say anything. He just had a momentary illusion and felt dizzy.

His feet stumbled and he unconsciously took a step forward.

There was a rockery in front of him, and it was next to the water. He almost stepped into the water.

Butler Zhao quickly pulled him back: "Slow down, it's a bit slippery here."

The abbot's heart skipped a beat. He knew that he had not slipped.

Not long after the magnetic boulder was added to the space, he had the same situation as well, as if he was being sucked by something and couldn't help but move towards that side.

But this situation hasn't happened for some time. What happened today?

The abbot held onto the rockery and asked, "Is there anything inside this rockery?"

Butler Zhao opened his eyes wide and looked at the abbot with utmost admiration.

"You know all this? You are truly a god!"

"Most servants in the mansion don't know that this rockery is indeed half empty. There is a warehouse inside, which is used to store things produced by the manor outside the city."

"Sometimes I'm not satisfied with the price, so I pick out some good quality items and put them here, and then sell them when the price goes up a bit."

"Take this poor monk in to have a look."

"Okay, this way please."

Butler Zhao took the abbot around to the other side of the rockery, found a switch on the wall, pressed it and turned it on.

The abbot saw it clearly, took note of it in his mind, and followed Butler Zhao into the rockery.

The abbot guessed that there must be something else in here that even Butler Zhao didn't know about.

Butler Zhao was in front and he was behind, and his feet staggered a few steps involuntarily.

I was a little nervous, holding onto the rock wall, muttering to myself, "Don't make trouble at this time, just finish your work quietly and go back to talk about it later."

"Master, this is it."

Butler Zhao pushed open a stone door and lit a tinderbox.

The abbot looked closely and saw some sacks neatly stacked together.

Butler Zhao was standing nearby, so the abbot had no way of taking a closer look.

"You go outside to watch the wind and ward off evil spirits. I will stay here to watch and recite some sutras."

"Okay, okay, don't worry, I promise I can keep it under control." Butler Zhao patted his chest and turned to go out.

The abbot heard his footsteps fading away and quickly took out a small flashlight to check one by one.

See whether what is stored here is food and medicinal materials.

There was nothing unusual with the food, but as soon as the abbot got close to the medicinal materials, he felt a suction force pulling him towards that direction.

Although it was not small, it was very faint, but he could feel it.

This feeling is amazing.

He gave up resisting and followed the suction until he came to a small pile of sacks.

He opened one of them and saw that it indeed contained medicinal herbs, but he didn't know what they were.

But it is not poisonous, and it looks like a medicinal herb. It is also covered with soil, so it must have been dug out from the ground.

Look at the other sacks on this small pile, they are all filled with this.

Strange, how could these herbs absorb him?

The abbot couldn't figure it out, so he simply put the bag into the space and took it back to show Yan Ruyu.

As soon as it was put in, the sack seemed to have grown legs and rushed towards the rock.

With a "pop" sound, it was sucked onto the boulder.

Abbot: "..."

At this moment, he heard footsteps and hurriedly left the space. He clasped his hands together, muttered something, and actually listened to the noise of approaching outside.

The abbot quickly realized that the person coming was not alone.

Who did this idiot housekeeper Zhao bring here?
