Chapter 208 Baldy Chen, the missing jade cicada
This is a big problem!
If Zhao Laowu had not been cremated in time and had been invaded by the corpse poison and turned into a zombie, who knows how much trouble it would have caused.
Qin Yinchuan frowned and pursed his lips and said:
"It was my mistake. I should have thought of it earlier."
Fu Yang glanced at him.
"Be careful next time."
After all, he is still too young and lacks experience.
Qin Yinchuan:
"I'll contact the police to see where Chen Laowu is and have them send him for cremation immediately."
Fu Yang nodded.
"Are you the only one coming to the Dao Association?"
There is indeed a shortage of manpower.
Qin Yinchuan sighed when he heard this.
"No, we originally sent three people, but there was a problem somewhere else, so the other two fellow Taoists had to go deal with it first, so I'm the only one here."
Fu Yang understood clearly.
So that's how it is.
Qin Yinchuan hurried out to do some work. Fu Yang watched him talking on the phone while rushing to the east end of the village.
Fu Yang himself prepared what he needed.
Pure glutinous rice, rooster blood, talisman...
In order not to damage the bodies of the three uncles, I have to be more careful.
After Qin Yinchuan finished the call and repeatedly instructed that Chen Laowu's body must be cremated as soon as possible, he followed Fu Yang's calculations and took the village chief to find the last house at the east end of the village.
He squinted his eyes, looked at the well-decorated courtyard in front of him, walked up and knocked on the door.
An impatient middle-aged male voice came from the yard.
“Who is it?”
Village chief Chen Changfu said in a cold voice:
"It's me, your uncle!"
Soon, there was a rustling sound from inside, and the courtyard door was opened from the inside.
Baldy Chen leaned forward, half-closed his eyes, and grinned:
"Village chief, why did you come to my house? I've been very well behaved recently and never caused any trouble."
Chen Changfu didn't listen to his excuses and walked in.
"Hand over what you stole from the zombies in the archaeology team."
This baldy Chen likes to steal and cheat on a daily basis, and he never changes his ways despite repeated warnings.
But he happened to have some skills and could steal other people's things without anyone noticing. I heard that this skill was passed down from his ancestors.
Sometimes, when someone loses something, you know clearly in your heart that he stole it, but you have no evidence and can only suffer in silence.
This is how he stole this beautifully decorated yard.
But it was precisely because of his dirty hands that the villagers didn't like to associate with him.
But in recent years, Chen Tuzi seems to have retired from this business. I don't know why he couldn't help himself this time.
Upon hearing this, Baldy Chen continued to play dumb.
"Village chief, what are you talking about? I haven't done anything for a long time. I quit a long time ago."
Seeing that he still refused to admit it, Chen Changfu's face darkened and he said coldly:
"Do you think I would come to your house without evidence? This is a Taoist priest. He calculated it and the thing is right here at your house!"
Then he frowned and warned:
"You know Chen Laowu, he stole the zombies' things, and now his body is already stiff. Do you think you can be more powerful than the zombies?"
Baldy Chen was silent for a moment after hearing this, then pretended to be nonchalant and said:
"Village Chief, I really didn't take it. Otherwise, look at how my yard is still in good condition. If I stole something, would the zombies let me go?"
As he spoke, he opened the door and said to Chen Changfu and Qin Yinchuan:
"Look, the chickens and ducks I raise in my yard are all doing well."
Chen Changfu frowned.
I really don't know why this is.
After all, the chickens and ducks of those families whose things were stolen last night all suffered.
Qin Yinchuan walked into the yard and explored for a while, but found nothing unusual.
There were no traces of zombie nails on the gate.
He said coldly:
"Did you sell the Jade Cicada?"
Baldy Chen pretended to be stupid.
"What is a jade cicada? I don't know. I've never seen one."
Qin Yinchuan cast a hexagram on the spot, and the hexagram showed that the jade cicada was in Chen Tuzi's house.
But the strange thing is, he couldn't find it!
When Baldy Chen saw this, a hint of pride flashed across his eyes, but then it was covered by worry.
"What do you think, Taoist Priest? I told you there's no such thing as a jade cicada in my yard. You must have found the wrong one."
Qin Yinchuan looked grim. He couldn't stay there since he couldn't find anything.
Chen Changfu followed him out.
"Master, are you sure the things are in Baldy's house? Otherwise, I'll try to persuade him again."
Although the bald man is not clean, he cannot be said to be a bad person. What's more, he is also a pitiful person.
I heard that his son fell ill not long ago and has been staying in the hospital and has not returned yet.
Qin Yinchuan:
"Excuse me, village chief."
But he knew that Baldy Chen would probably not be willing to hand over the things.
He didn't get the jade cicada, and for a moment he felt embarrassed to go back to see Fu Yang. He felt ashamed.
But Qin Yinchuan still returned to the archaeological team.
Fu Yang saw that he looked unhappy and asked:
"What's wrong? Are things not going well?"
Qin Yinchuan nodded.
"I did as you said and found the last house at the east end of the village. The man there was called Baldy Chen, and he refused to admit that he had stolen the jade cicada. I read his fortune, and it showed that the jade cicada was in his house, but I found nothing."
"Friend Yan, there are no signs of zombies in Baldy Chen's house. Why do you think that is?"
Fu Yang thought this was a bit strange.
"If it's true as you said, then this Baldy Chen is probably not an ordinary person. He might have hidden Yu Chan by some means."
Qin Yinchuan thought of Chen Tuzi's unkempt and sloppy appearance, and wondered how powerful he could be.
Fu Yang thought for a moment and said:
"Just because the zombies didn't come looking for him last night doesn't mean they won't come today. Is he the only one home?"
Qin Yinchuan nodded.
"Yes, he's the only one."
Fu Yang:
"It's getting dark. I'm going to his house to check on him."
Qin Yinchuan thought, could it be that Fellow Daoist Yan is confident that he can find the Jade Cicada?
He was curious and wanted to see what she could do, so he said:
"I'll go with you again."
Fu Yang nodded.
"OK."
When Fu Yang arrived, Chen Changfu had already left and the door of Chen Tuzi's house was closed.
Qin Yinchuan walked up and knocked on the door.
Baldy Chen started cursing.
“Who is it again!”
Opening the door and looking at Qin Yinchuan in front of him, Chen Tuzi had a strange smile on his face.
"Master, why are you here again? I already told you, I didn't steal any jade cicada."
Qin Yinchuan had a cold face and said nothing.
Fu Yang stepped forward and walked into the yard of Chen Tuzi's house.
Baldy Chen frowned.
"Who are you? Did I agree to let you into my house?"
Fu Yang quickly took a look at the situation in the yard, turned around, and looked at Chen Tuzi's face again.
"Your son is dying, and Yuchan is with your son."
