I have an eternal eye

Chapter 52 Something strange happened to the shop

"Stubborn..."

Seeing Monk Dharma Shan closing his eyes and chanting sutras, the prison head Black Hell King frowned slightly and felt a little angry in his heart.

His kung fu at Six Gates was only average, and he didn't make a name for himself when he studied medicine when he was young. The only thing he was proud of was this method of torture.

You can't be embarrassed in front of a few adults.

Thinking of this, Black Hell King picked up another iron brush, which was stained with poisonous powder and fell off.

Swish, swish, swish a few times,

The monk's body was covered with bloodstains.

This torture device is called "tiger bow". The poisonous powder is the hair of some kind of leaves. Once it pierces the wound, it will be extremely itchy and even the tiger will go crazy.

"ah--!"

"The five turbidities come to the world, the ten evils are born, all living beings are filthy, greedy and jealous..."

Fashan's face was almost distorted, but he continued to recite Buddhist scriptures, his eyes were dull, with some weird fanaticism.

"Stop it."

Zhuge Shenping frowned slightly and said thoughtfully: "Fa Shan is a shrewd businessman who can face severe punishment without resorting to punishment. The Lianhua Sect is indeed an evil sect."

"I heard about the five turbidities and the ten evils in the Buddhist scriptures. When I heard what he meant, it seemed a little different..."

Chief Catcher Guo An snorted coldly: "It's nothing more than deceiving people. I've seen it all too often!"

"Fashan was arrested, and the two monks committed suicide. The rest of the party will definitely run away after hearing the news. Is there any other way to get him to confess as soon as possible?"

"I am ashamed of myself."

The Black King of Hell quickly lowered his head, cupped his hands and said, "I heard that Qiu Chenyi, the young minister of Dali Temple, has a wonderful method that can induce hallucinations with drugs. The prisoners are all talking about it."

"Qiu Shaoqing?"

Zhuge Shenhua nodded and said: "Master Qiu often cooperates with my six sects, I will ask him to take action right now."

After that, he left in a hurry.

In less than half an hour, he rushed back, shook his head and said, "Qiu Shaoqing went to the outskirts of Beijing to handle a case and won't be back until evening."

Guo An said in a deep voice: "This matter cannot be delayed. Send someone to wait at the city gate. When Lord Qiu arrives, we will invite him over."

"Yes, sir!"

…………

At the end of Chen Dynasty, Jixianfang.

As the Autumn Zao Festival approaches, every square is decorated with lanterns and colors in preparation for the temple fair.

Jixianfang is no exception. Although there is no Taoist temple here, there is a Shrine of the Three Saints.

In this Sansheng Temple, three Confucian saints are enshrined. Every year when scholars from all over the world come to Beijing to take exams, they must come here to pay homage to the sages.

Therefore, the Jixianfang Temple Fair is different.

Lantern riddle guessing and poetry contests are quite interesting, and there are even more cultural and entertainment stalls on the streets.

Zhang Biao was holding the box and looking around.

He brought some tonics to Wang Captou. His eldest son had wasted a lot of effort and was sent to the Imperial Academy to study arithmetic. It would be most appropriate to give him some pens, ink, paper and inkstones.

Seeing antiques all over the street, Zhang Biao's addiction to picking up missing items came back to him.

With his current level of cultivation, he could identify ordinary objects more than a dozen times without getting tired. Unfortunately, he looked at a few items and they were all fakes.

"Captain Zhang is here again?"

Familiar voices came from behind.

Zhang Biao turned around and saw that it was Yu Ziqing, the vendor selling his erotic wood carvings.

"I have resigned from six jobs."

Zhang Biao shook his head and said with a smile: "Now that I am an idler, there is no need to call me a head-hunter."

"oh?"

A trace of disappointment flashed in Yu Ziqing's eyes, but he still held up his hands with a smile on his face and said: "There are many things in public life, and only the lucky ones have leisure. What are you here to buy?"

Zhang Biao smiled and said, "You came just in time. I want to get some of the four treasures of the study to give away, but unfortunately I don't know anything about them."

Yu Ziqing said quickly: "Why don't you come to the shop and have a look?"

This kid has become so prosperous in such a short period of time?

Zhang Biao was a little surprised, but he didn't ask any more questions. He followed Yu Ziqing to a tomb shop called "Tiandi Zhai" on the street.

It turns out to be the property of Tiandimen...

Zhang Biao saw it and understood instantly.

This boy joined the Register Sect. The Heaven and Earth Sect could not just rely on a bunch of crooks to gain a foothold in the capital. It must have its own industry to support it.

"Cangzhou bamboo ink, Yuntai stone inkstone, Youzhou langhao, Chenzhou rice paper...not only are the prices moderate, but no matter who you give them to, you won't lose face."

Yu Ziqing moved quickly and picked out a set of Four Treasures of the Study in a short time, and he was also very smooth-talking.

But Zhang Biao's eyes were completely attracted by a bookshelf.

The other books on the shelf are all newly printed and exude a light fragrance of ink.

But this bookshelf is full of various ancient books, which are yellowed and mottled, and some have traces of insect erosion.

When Yu Ziqing saw this, he smiled and said: "Brother Zhang, don't look at those. They are all ancient books found by the officials in the capital. They were forged and used to get some famous people's seals to fool foreign scholars."

Zhang Biao nodded, thinking about the ancient books of the Chongyang Temple. When he asked people to rebuild the Taoist temple, he happened to take the time to check them out one by one.

"Thief, where can I escape!"

Just as he was talking, a muffled sound suddenly came from the back room.

I saw a waiter running out in disgrace and said to Yu Ziqing: "Second shopkeeper, that thief cat ran out again, this time I saw it with my own eyes!"

Yu Ziqing said helplessly: "Chen Er, if you are tired, why not go home and rest for a few days?"

The waiter's face turned red when he heard this, "Second shopkeeper, I'm not crazy... I really saw it!"

Seeing Zhang Biao's gaze, Yu Ziqing smiled bitterly and said, "Our guys always say there is a cat in the warehouse, but no one else has noticed it."

"cat?"

Zhang Biao's heart moved, and he remembered the rat monster Yuanbao he saw in Chongsheng Temple. He smiled and said, "I just happened to be addicted to handling cases. Why don't you let me go and take a look?"

Chicken monsters and rat monsters are out.

Could it be that there are also monster cats?

"this…"

Yu Ziqing deliberately refused, but thinking that there was nothing valuable in the warehouse, he might as well sell it to save face, so he smiled and said, "I just want to ask Brother Zhang to help me take a look."

The warehouse is not big, just a side room, with boxes containing pens, inks, paper and inkstones neatly stacked.

It can be seen that the store that Yu Ziqing took over is a bit poor. Not to mention the treasures in the store, even the ordinary goods are very few.

"Right over there!"

The guy said, "I personally saw a black cat with green eyes wandering around in the warehouse."

Yu Ziqing shook his head speechlessly and said, "The ground is covered with loess and there are no cat paw prints. You must be dazzled?"

"Ah...this?"

The guy looked at the ground, also suspicious.

Zhang Biao narrowed his eyes slightly, looked towards the corner, and said, "Is there a canal nearby?"

Yu Ziqing shook his head and said: "The ditch is still far away."

Zhang Biao approached the corner, wiped it gently, and looked at the water stains on his hands, "The moisture here is a little abnormal."

"oh?"

Yu Ziqingye frowned, hurriedly stepped forward and wiped it, then tapped it a few times with his fingers. When he heard the sound, his eyes suddenly lit up, "Quick, get the pickaxe!"

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Earth and rocks are scattered everywhere, and there is a dark room hidden in the wall.

The area is not large, only one foot square.

There was a wooden box inside. I don’t know how many years it had gone through, the wood had rotted away, and the iron lock was stained with rust.

"So heavy!"

Yu Ziqing and his assistant dragged the wooden box out and smashed the iron ropes. The three of them suddenly widened their eyes.

The wooden box was filled with silver ingots.

The guy was breathing heavily.

Yu Ziqing's eyes were frightened, and he secretly looked at Zhang Biao, and when he saw his eyes gleaming, he even complained in his heart.

Money moves people's hearts.

Zhang Biao is a highly skilled martial artist. He and his waiter are the only ones in the store. If someone is malicious, they may not even be able to save their lives.

Thinking of this, Yu Ziqing's voice trembled and said: "Zhang...Zhang Captou, what should I do?"

He deliberately made a mistake and mentioned the name of "head arrest" again to remind Zhang Biao not to kill people indiscriminately.

Zhang Biao was happy, "Of course I have a share in seeing it. Are you planning to hand it over to the Heaven and Earth Gate?"

The waiter became anxious upon hearing this and quickly looked at Yu Ziqing, his eyes full of pleading.

Yu Ziqing felt much relieved, "Well, since Brother Zhang discovered this thing, you can distribute it."

The waiter next to him felt as if cold water had been poured on his head, but he calmed down and lowered his head without daring to speak.

This guy is pretty smart...

Zhang Biao was happy and said righteously: "This is your opportunity. How can Zhang take it hard? Just take this thing."

As he said that, he pulled out a black jade pendant from the gap in the wooden box. It looked very weird, and it actually carved a cat.

It’s Western style…

Yu Zi cleared his eyes and saw the shape of the jade pendant at once. It was also psychic and was absolutely extraordinary.

But he still burst into tears of gratitude and said, "Brother Zhang is so righteous!"

"Hahaha, thank you!"

Zhang Biao picked up the jade pendant, turned around and left.

When he came to the door, he suddenly turned around and said, "Brother Yu, you are really a noble man from Zhang. Please do more with me when you have time."

After that, he quickly left the store.

Looking at the retreating figure, the waiter said unwillingly: "Second shopkeeper, that is definitely a treasure!"

"madness!"

Yu Ziqing scolded: "If you dare to touch something of unknown origin and something that can reveal supernatural powers, I don't dare to take it."

As he spoke, he said in a deep voice: "Chen Er, both parents in your family are probably sick. It's time for us to turn over."

"It depends on you, whether you can grasp it..."

The waiter was also a smart man, and he quickly bent down and handed over his hand, "I'm stupid and I only obey Brother Yu's orders!"

…………

After leaving Jixianfang and arriving at a quiet and deserted place, Zhang Biao took out the black cat jade pendant in his hand.

Jade Essence (Yellow Level 1)
