Family cultivation: a psychic mirror at the beginning

Chapter 126 Investigating evil spirits

"Yes."

Wang Chongtian responded respectfully.

"The Liu family is trying to steal food from my Wang family's mouth!"

Wang Qingshan narrowed his eyes and looked slightly gloomy.

"So, the ancestor plans to..."

"The Liu family's Xiuxianfang City must not be built so easily."

"Now, my family's Xiuxianfang City has been maliciously destroyed by the three above. In a short period of time, Xiuxianfang City will no longer be able to operate.

For the subsequent repairs on the family's side, a large number of manpower will have to be dispatched to guard against the last three families secretly causing trouble. "

“Now, the Liu family is taking advantage of the opportunity to build a Xiuxianfang city that belongs to their family.

Once the Liu family becomes popular, he will definitely become another strong enemy of my Wang family. "

"But there are experts behind the Liu family. If we take action in private, once that senior knows about it."

"Won't you find some unimportant casual cultivators?"

Wang Qingshan glanced sideways at Wang Chongtian, his tone slightly indifferent.

"Disciple, I understand."

Lao Zhang is a well-known craftsman in Yuncang County, and his construction skills are superb.

This time, I learned that the Liu family was going to renovate a market.

He came to sign up and participate in the subsequent repairs, hoping to earn a generous reward so that his wife and children at home could live a better life.

As usual, Lao Zhang took some craftsmen to a corner of Fangshi and prepared to repair several shops here.

The people were ordered to move some wood and prepare the necessary tools.

Lao Zhang started to get people busy.

"Why don't you see Old Man Liu today? On weekdays, he is the first to come."

Holding the saw in his hand, Lao Zhang looked at the dozen craftsmen following him and found that Old Liu was not there, and couldn't help but be curious.

"Maybe I slept a little late."

"Isn't this like Old Liu Tou's style?"

"Old Liu Tou almost spent all his family wealth in order to treat his wife at home.

Times are tough these days, and carpenter jobs are hard to find.

Now, the Liu family wants to repair this market, and Old Liu Tou came to sign up early, just to earn enough for medical expenses.

The wages paid by the Liu family are quite good, and they also include food and accommodation for us craftsmen.

Lao Liutou was very grateful, so he would work late every day before going back to the workhouse to rest.

I came late today, maybe because I was busy until midnight yesterday before going back to the dormitory to sleep! "

The extremely burly middle-aged man with tiger eyes and beard said with a smile.

"I see, let's leave him alone for now. Wait until he wakes up and then arrange work for him.

It's not easy for Old Liu Tou either. The family is in urgent need of money, so we have to take more care of him. "

Hearing the words of his fellow craftsmen, Lao Zhang nodded suddenly, stopped asking about Lao Liu Tou's affairs, concentrated on sawing the wood, and started busy with the work in hand.

"Xiao Li, take the wood and newly repaired doors and windows to the back of the shop. We will deal with it later."

After Lao Zhang finished his work, he looked at the young man who was helping him and ordered with a smile.

"Okay! Uncle Zhang."

The young man's name is Li Yi and he is from Yuncang County.

I am sixteen years old this year, my parents died early, and I grew up eating hundreds of meals.

From the age of six, he lived alone and learned the craft of carpentry from his uncle Zhang.

Now, after ten years of studying, he has learned how to eat.

In a few days, he will be able to rely on the accumulated wealth to marry a daughter-in-law, so that his lineage can flourish.

I was able to come to Liu's house to work this time, thanks to his uncle Zhang's help in introducing him. The same is true, he is very grateful to his Uncle Zhang.

Li Yi worked diligently and was quick with his hands and feet. He and a few companions moved the wood requested by Uncle Zhang and others, as well as the newly built shutters, doors, etc., to the back of the shop.

"What does it smell like? Is it so smelly?"

The accompanying companion followed Li Yi to the back of the store. He smelled a stench coming from a distance, making him frown.

“This place is overgrown with weeds and has not been cleaned for many years. There are rotting branches, leaves, rat carcasses, etc. everywhere. This smell is normal.

Wait a minute, we have finished moving the things, and then we will use a shovel to clean up the grass and debris in the back, so as to leave a good impression on the owner. "

Li Yi responded with a smile.

He grew up in a slum, and such a stench was no stranger to him.

"Okay, if we can leave a good impression on our boss, maybe we can get some extra rewards.

I heard that the Yuncang Liu family is a family that cultivates immortals in our country of Yue!

The family has a strong foundation and is very wealthy.

Many dignitaries in Yuncang County are very fond of the Yuncang Liu family.

It is a blessing for us to be able to work under such an employer. "

"Haha! That's true. Our employer's wages are three times more than those outside. All food and accommodation are in the employer's name.

It is not easy for us to find such a good owner. "

Children from poor families have long been in charge of the family. Although Li Yi is young, he has long been accustomed to the warmth and coldness of human beings.

He has helped many employers, but none of them can compare with the reward given by Yuncang Liu.

In the past, some employers even maliciously defaulted on their wages.

In order to ask for wages, Li Yi and his uncle Zhang used to stay in front of the owner's house in the winter, just to ask for the wages they deserved, looking forward to a good year.

Unfortunately, not only did they not get paid, but they also attracted beatings and kicks from a group of vicious slaves.

Not to mention the New Year's money, even a lot of medical expenses are included in it.

He has also seen a lot of the ugly faces of other employers. Compared with the two, the treatment and remuneration given by the Liu family in Yuncang is much better.

If possible, Li Yi really wants to work under the Liu family for the rest of his life. As long as the Liu family needs it, he will work hard.

While chatting, Li Yi and his companions leaned the relevant wood, doors, windows, etc. against the wall behind the shop.

Immediately, the group of people brought shovels and cleared the weeds behind the shop.

Ah ~

Suddenly, a scream came out, attracting the attention of Li Yi and others.

"It's Zhang Li's voice."

"Let's go and take a look!"

Li Yi hurriedly urged and ran in the direction of the sound.

As soon as they arrived here, Li Yi and others smelled a strong stench. The stench was different from the smell of the sewage ditches in the slums, but an extremely strong corpse odor!

Looking closely, Li Yi and other young men were horrified to see a rotting corpse huddled in the weeds in the corner of the courtyard.

Apparently, Zhang Li accidentally discovered the body when he was cleaning up the weeds and debris here. He was so frightened that he let out a scream and collapsed on the ground helplessly, almost losing control of his urine.

vomit~

Seeing the rotting corpse filled with a strong stench, many teenagers vomited violently.

Each of their faces looked uglier than the last.

Even Li Yi couldn't help feeling nauseated. He quickly ran to a corner of the courtyard and vomited out all the overnight meals before feeling much relieved.

"Tong...inform Uncle Zhang and the others and ask them to come and take a look."

"Brother Yan Shui, I just said that the body should have died at midnight.

but......"

Liu Yandong, wearing patrol clothes, came to Liu Yanshui and truthfully told his brother Yan Shui about the investigation.

"But what?"

"Wu Zuo said that the decomposition of the body did not look like it had only been dead for one night. Moreover, Wu Zuo could not figure out the real cause of death. He suspected that it was the work of evil spirits."

"Evil?!"

Liu Yanshui murmured in a low voice.

The family market must be repaired and put into use as soon as possible. If there are evil spirits secretly causing trouble, it will greatly affect the family's plans.

"Old Zhang, do you know the deceased?"

Liu Yanshui glanced at Lao Zhang, who looked sad at the side.

"Yes, that's Lao Liutou..."

Lao Zhang first bowed respectfully to Liu Yanshui, and then nodded in response.

"Lao Liutou was not with you all last night?"

"We are together, but I have to get off work first. In order to earn more wages, Old Liu Tou is busy around here alone.

As for later, we don’t know whether he returned to the workhouse? "

"I haven't seen Old Liu Tou this morning. We thought he was too tired and overslept. We never thought..."

"Old Liu Tou was also a miserable man. Now that he has been killed, what can he do with his wife who has been bedridden all year round?"

As he spoke, Lao Zhang began to sigh again.

"Brother Yan Shui, now that a murder has occurred, do we need to stop work first?

If you can't think of a way, first deal with the evil spirits that are causing trouble secretly. Once there is another human life, it will definitely cause panic.

The craftsmen my family spent many days recruiting will definitely leave here and no longer dare to continue working! "

"I have informed Shuang'er and asked her to come and find out what the evil spirit was that killed Old Liu Tou."
