Bureau of Anomalous Biological Countermeasures Chapter 26: Sleep
Wu Mian left quietly, but it did not affect Xi Yingzhen's mood. The great warlock brought Gui Bugui, Zhang Song and others to the door of a grain store in Bingzhou City. He said to Xiao Ren San in his arms: "This is the position in the center of the formation, and the formation is motivated here."
This grain store is also the business of the Surabaya, and the guys who followed them have come to report in advance. The guys in charge of the grain store welcomed these people inside, but Xi Yingzhen and the others had no intention of entering the house to drink tea. Under the leadership of Xi Yingzhen, these people went directly into the warehouse where the grain was stored.
After entering the warehouse, Xi Yingzhen frowned. It was different from what he had imagined, and there was no sign that the formation had been placed. This is obviously the center of the four directions. If it is not activated here, the formation will not be able to hypnotize the people of a city until they wake up in the morning.
Just when Xi Ying really didn't understand what was wrong, Zhang Song smiled and called over to the cashier of the grain store and asked him if something unusual happened last night. What I didn't expect was that the accountant hadn't spoken yet, and the coolie who was carrying the bag in the grain store said: "Master, do you know what happened here last night? Is it a ghost or a fox fairy? Don't hide it from you, sir Said, our group of brothers may have been fascinated by ghosts last night..."
This coolie is a loud voice, attracting everyone around him when he speaks. Then I heard him talk about what happened last night when he was bewitched by ghosts.
Last night their group of coolies were the same as the common people in Bingzhou City, and they fell asleep after dark. They are people who make great efforts, and they have no problems with insomnia. However, after being woken up by the accountant after the sky was bright, all of them had backaches, and two of them were unconscious.
After I got a doctor to look at it, they said that they have all made great efforts recently. It's not worth it if you lose your body. The doctor didn't prescribe any medicine, but the two of them had to sleep for a day or two. If it doesn't work after two days, get him back for needles.
Except for these two coolies, most of the rest were too tired to lift their arms. After waking up for a long time, the muscles of the whole body were still fighting non-stop. This happened a few years ago when they moved the grain store and moved 100,000 stone of grain overnight. However, it is the off-season of the grain store recently, and they have not done much. They went to bed early last night. How could such a thing happen?
Just before Xi Yingzhen brought people, these coolies said something strange. They all had the same dream last night. These people went back to the warehouse to carry the food inside. First moved tens of thousands of catties of grain to the yard, and then carried the grain back again. Their dreams were exactly the same, and the coolies were all in cold sweat. It was determined that they were either haunted or haunted by a fox fairy last night.
After hearing what the coolies said, Zhang Song went to the backyard where they said temporarily storing food. Sure enough, they found traces of carrying grain on this road, but Zhang Song continued to ask who asked them to carry grain back and forth in the dream, and the coolies couldn't tell. There was such a person vaguely in their dreams, but who was it, and what this person looked like, they couldn't tell how.
"Great Warlock, it seems that the Warlock last night was doing something secretive, there must be some plan." After Zhang Song told Xi Yingzhen what he had inquired about, he continued: "If the disciple guesses correctly, the courage will be buried. In the underground of the warehouse. The warlock stunned the coolies and made a space for them. After he casts the spell, he will reset the place, but the formation is not easy to move, so the warlock should have buried the formation underground."
Hearing this, Xiao Ren San asked Ying automatically. After dispersing the irrelevant people, the little guy plunged into the ground in a savage way. After a while, he showed his head at Xi Yingzhen's feet and said to the great warlock: "Old man, there is really a pill furnace buried under this, and it is still a large piece of burnt paper ashes. We found a piece of ginseng that has not been burned yet. clean..."
When he was speaking, Xiao Ren San had already taken out a piece of yellow watch paper that had not yet arrived and had been burnt out. There was a strange rune painted on it. After Xi Yingzhen picked up the ginseng doll, he took half a piece of rune paper. After just a glance, he handed it over to Zhang Song and said, "It's a spell from a warlock. Help Grandpa Warlock to think about it. This is what the warlock did? What does this person want to do in Bingzhou City?"
While Xi Yingzhen was speaking, Zhang Song had already handed over the talisman to Gui Bugui's hand. Then he said with a smile: "You can't get rid of your relationship with the great warlock. It should have been rumored that Fang Xuan was taken away in Bingzhou before. I guess which warlock thought you hid some treasure in Bingzhou city, Let Fang Xuan stay here to guard the treasure. Later, Fang Xuan was taken away, and the treasure may still be in the city. Only then did he activate the formation, and he wanted to find the treasure that could not be found at all when the people were sleeping."
Listening to what Zhang Song said makes some sense, Xi Yingzhen nodded and said to Gui Bugui, "What do you think, old guy? What is the purpose of the warlock in the formation?"
"Warlock Zhang Song is right." Gui Bugui smiled and continued: "If you want to know what that warlock wants to do, you have to use the power of the government. Let them find out who was last night. Has there been anything unusual at home, like the guy here. Since the warlock made such a big noise, it is impossible for him to leave no trace."
In terms of mind, none of the people present could compare to the two of them. Now that I don't return, I ask the Sishui ship to invite the Jiedushi of Bingzhou to check the situation in the city last night, and then take out the money as a reward, and ask those coolies to dig out the elixir furnace under the warehouse and send it to the shop of the Sishui ship.
After everything was arranged, they returned to the shop on the Surabaya again. After returning, it was almost noon, and Taotie had already prepared a table of dishes. Wu Mian hid in the back room prepared for them and continued to read his Mingren Zhi, while Fang Xuan, who was supposed to fight the dragon seed, didn't know where he went.
Just when Xi Yingzhen was about to get angry, he saw Fang Xuan returning here with a woman. This woman looked familiar, it was the prostitute Yuelan who hid him in the brothel. When he left Bingzhou City, Fang Xuan had always been obsessed with this woman. After returning here, he returned to the prostitute that had been turned into ruins again. They found Yuelan who was about to be sold by Li Banshan.
Fang Xuan said nothing, took out all the money on his body and redeemed Yuelan. Originally, he wanted to rent a house in Bingzhou to temporarily hold this woman, and then he remembered that all the money on his body had been used to redeem Yuelan. I had no choice but to bite the bullet and bring the woman back...
Originally, Fang Xuan was ready to be beaten and scolded by Master Dafang, but what he didn't expect was that he saw his descendants come back with a prostitute. The anger on the Great Warlock's face disappeared without a trace, and he just said: "Grandpa Warlock, there are so many good things about me, why don't you learn it? Sit down, so many people are waiting for you... "
Seeing that Xi Yingzhen didn't get angry, everyone present felt incredible. After Fang Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, he went to Zhang Song and Gui Bugui to borrow money. After preparing the meal, he went to find a house to resettle Yuelan. Unexpectedly, Xi Yingzhen seemed to have changed a person, and said to Fang Xuan: "What's the point of going out and resettling well? Since you are here, you two can live together. If you have the ability, you can make her a male and half female, and I will also be the warlock grandfather. I have nothing to say."
Xi Yingzhen has been lingering in the land of smoke and powder all year round, and he has no contempt for prostitutes in his mind. He even sneered at the etiquette of Confucius and Mencius, and because Fang Xuan redeemed a prostitute, he was somewhat impressed. When scolding him again, it was not like before, and it gave him a little face.
About the evening, Jiedushi's yamen came to pass a message that a family of seven people died in their sleep last night in a family in the south of the city. This family lives in a somewhat secluded place. If it wasn't for the Sishui ship, the government would have to investigate it. I'm afraid it will take a few days before the body stinks...
