The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion
Chapter 335: The Key to a Formation
Chapter 335: The Key to a Formation
| April 17th |
The heavens probably didn't like Jia Zhen very much, so it started to drizzle in the second half of the night. By dawn, the rain had not subsided but had become even denser.
It was not advantageous to be tall. Sun Shaozong carried an oil-paper umbrella to the front yard, and the skirt and hem of his clothes were already wet.
Zhang Cheng, dressed in a coir raincoat, was waiting under the corridor. As soon as he saw Sun Shaozong coming, he quickly rushed to the front of the carriage, spread a leather cushion on the ground, and lifted the carriage curtain with a waterproof cover.
Sun Shaozong rubbed the soles of his shoes on the leather mat first, and then casually hung his umbrella on the barb at the top of the carriage. He quickly jumped onto the carriage and was about to instruct Zhang Cheng to get up on the road, but he heard someone outside shouting, "Second Brother, Second Brother, wait for me.
Looking through the sound, Xue Pan rushed in from the side door without even using an umbrella, holding his head, and then ran to the carriage with splashes of water. He smiled heartlessly and said, "I just ran into Jia Yucun and heard that you are also going to Ningguo Mansion to celebrate Jia Zhens birthday today. Let's go together, and it's easy to chat and relax on the way.
As he spoke, he crawled into the car with a big grin.
Your shoe
Sun Shaozong glared before he got out of the car and rubbed the soles of his shoes.
When this guy crawled back into the carriage, thick-skinned, Sun Shaozong had to shrink back and make some space for him.
Xue Pan was impolite. After sitting steadily in the car, he raised his voice and ordered, "Lao Zhang, let's go.
The two of them weighed over four hundred pounds, and it took a lot of effort just to get the carriage moving.
When the wheels rolled and left the side door of Sun Mansion, Xue Pan's golden carriage was parked outside the door without anyone greeting him, so it quietly followed behind.
I heard you caught a cold a few days ago.
In the carriage, Sun Shaozong looked up and down at Xue Pan a few times and saw that he looked rosy. He then said, "Now, it seems that you have recovered.
Don't mention it
Speaking of the word cold, Xue Pan looked depressed and said, I fell ill as soon as I returned from Rongguo Mansion. My mother thought it was some kind of evil, and she stirred up the crowd for several days, suffocating me to death!
As he spoke, he pretended to be mysterious and said, "Do you know, Brother Zhen asked someone to invite you over, exactly for what?"
This was exactly what Sun Shaozong was puzzled about, so he sat up slightly straight and put on a respectful posture.
Xue Pan saw that he was interested in this topic and was immediately able to get into it. With a beaming expression, he gestured, "I heard an old Taoist privately say that Brother Zhen has always been longing for his daughter-in-law, Qin
A few days ago, Aunt Xue made a mountain out of a molehill and invited many experts to exorcize Xue Pan. But he just felt cold occasionally. What could the exorcize do?
He drove away several mischievous fraudsters in a row, and seeing that this would continue indefinitely, she decided to discuss with the new old Taoist that the well water in the house wouldnt pollute the river, and when he recovered from his illness, the reward would be given without delay.
Of course, in fact, Xue Pan was pondering, waiting for his body to become healthier, to blow out this immortal old scammer.
But the two of them stared at each other in the room like this, especially since the old Taoist was not a beautiful man. After a while, it was inevitable that they felt a bit embarrassed, so they didn't know who was the first to pick their heads. The old and young began to chat together.
Although, the old Taoist was a scammer, there were many strange stories in his stomach. Even those who spoke with gestures and colors were not repeated after listening for two or three days.
In the end, Xue Pan reluctantly escorted the Taoist priest out of his house, not only paying for the speech therapy, but also agreeing to have time to continue listening to the Taoist priest's stories.
And Jia Zhen's story was also heard from the old Taoist.
It was said that this Master of the Ningguo Mansion values love and righteousness the most. After the death of his daughter-in-law Qin-Shi the year before, she was buried using all his money, and he still occasionally dreamt of her to this day.
At first, Jia Zhen didn't care either. He only thought that he had thoughts and dreams every day and night, but as he did so many times, he couldn't help but mutter.
Several experts were invited, and they all said that Qin's soul was reluctant to leave. Over time, it was feared that it would turn into a fierce ghost. Therefore, it was necessary to have a good reincarnation so that she could be reincarnated as soon as possible. However, Jia Zhen's dream had never been broken, and his body and bones were getting worse.
Recently, some experts have pointed out that the Yin spirits in this mansion were too strong, and it must attract a large amount of Yang spirits to break this Yin spirit pattern and return to its original position.
This large amount of Yang spirit naturally referred to the aura of a masculine man.
Coincidentally, Jia Zhen was about to celebrate his 40th birthday, so he invited many middle and lower-level generals from the four battalions and one guard to take the opportunity to break this Yin spirit pattern.
Among them, it was necessary to find a person with an extremely strong Yang spirit to serve as the most important member of the formation!
Upon hearing this, Sun Shaozong felt a sense of relief, but he couldn't help feeling a bit depressed. How could each one of them use himself as a Yang tool... Hmm, as a weapon?
In the end, it was still because people these days always associate cases with gods, ghosts, and evils. Therefore, experts like Sun Shaozong in solving cases naturally became experts in exorcism and ghost hunting in the eyes of the general public.
At this moment, Xue Pan suggested, "In my opinion, you might as well take the opportunity to strike him hard. You can't just help him with these tactics in vain, can you?
Sun Shaozong rolled his eyes without hesitation and pulled the topic aside.
Near Ningguo Mansion, two young servants dressed in bamboo hats greeted Zhang Cheng and had a few questions and answers before allowing the carriage inside. Not everyone was qualified to ride in, and most carriages and sedan chairs could only park outside the wall.
Hahaha.
The carriage had just stopped at the designated location, and without waiting for Sun Shaozong and Xue Pan to come down, they saw Jia Zhen hurriedly coming out of the hall. From afar, he smiled and arched his hand, saying, "Brother Sun, thanks for coming. Our family is shining with a bright appearance.
Sure enough, he had to ask for help; otherwise, he didnt need to be polite to Sun Shaozong as he held a second-class title.
But
Wasnt this bright from Ningguo Mansion already stripped away by him?
With such thoughts in mind, Sun Shaozong also got off the carriage with Xue Pan and politely courted him.
Jia Zhen was obviously hesitant when he saw Xue Pan around, but when he remembered something, he smiled again and said, "To be honest, since I saw your case-solving method in the Yihong Courtyard that day, I have wanted to make friends with you. Theres still some time before the birthday banquet. Can you accompany me to the backyard for a chat?
As he spoke, he smiled at Xue Pan and said, "Brother Xue, come with me too. I heard that you and my son, Ronger, have done some great things recently, and I am just thinking of listening.
Upon hearing this, Xue Pan had a hint of conversation on his face, and it was clear that this so-called great thing was not a good thing.
