"What about the bag of powder," Gongsun wondered.
Tan Shaoyan said, "I'll go back." ” Gongsun squinted, how can you be honest, so keep some for yourself Zhao Pu asked him, "You suspect that there is a case, it is because of Chen Sangua's words" Tan Shaoyan shook his head, "Of course what Old Chen Tou said made me a little concerned, but I couldn't jump to conclusions so rashly, and then I investigated it again." ” Everyone felt that this young man spoke in an orderly manner, and he should have looked like a brain, and he probably found something.
"After I drank with Lao Chen, I took the shop and went to the old house to find my master."
Tan Shaoyan said, "As soon as I told the master what happened, the master frowned when he heard it, and asked me to push this business." ” Zhan Zhao was curious, "Does your master know anything?"
"Master told me something about alchemy."
Tan Shaoyan said, "The craft of mixing gold originated from the ancient art of alchemy, and now alchemy is no longer popular, so many skills have been lost. ” Everyone nodded.
The fourth son raised his face and asked his grandson, "Daddy, is tofu also obtained from alchemy?"
Gongsun rubbed his head and nodded yes.
"Back then, those people did come up with a lot of strange things for the sake of immortality and alchemy."
Tan Shaoyan said, "According to legend, there is a skill that can be mixed with gold that is harder than iron and bronze, and this technique is called blood and bone gold. ” "Blood and Bone" Gongsun touched his chin, and the rest of the people also frowned, it didn't seem to be a good trick to hear the name "Master told me that this kind of blood and bone alchemy is to use a rare herb and bone powder to alchemize."
Tan Shaoyan continued, "But it's not just a matter of mixing herbs and bone meal with each other and mixing them with gold water, but first letting people take that highly poisonous herb, and after people eat this poisonous herb for seven days, they will die, and then cremating the body will become very flammable."
Originally, there could be a jar of adult ashes after cremation, but the ashes burned out after being poisoned were red, similar to iron powder, and the quantity was very small, only one penny, and the package of medicinal powder he gave me that day was three or two. ” Everyone was stunned when they heard this.
Xiao Sizi counted with his fingers, then opened his mouth wide, and looked up at his father, "Daddy, are there thirty people?"
Gongsun touched his chin and said to himself, "It's good that you didn't take this deal, otherwise you would have died."
Everyone looked at Gongsun.
"The powder he gave you should be similar in composition to the fire corpse, it is highly poisonous," Gongsun said.
Everyone grinned, what a rare poison Tan Shaoyan was also surprised, "My master only knows that this thing is highly poisonous, but he doesn't know what it's made of."
Gongsun waved his hand and explained to everyone, "The so-called highly poisonous herb should be fire corpse grass, this kind of grass can be used as medicine, if you eat too much, you will die, and if you eat less, you can cure diseases."
It is effective in treating symptoms such as brittle bones, and is also suitable for the elderly.
However, the amount must be less and eat more than seven days to die, after death, the bones of the whole body are fiery red, so it is named after this kind of poisoned corpse once the powder left by cremation, it becomes a kind of strange poison fire corpse scatter.
This is quite dangerous, if you take it, you will be poisoned if you see blood in your throat and contact with the skin, and you will be poisoned if you smell it for a long time, and the symptoms will vary depending on the measurement.
This poison is a dry poison, after poisoning, people will have red eyes, hot all over the body, hallucinations, manic death, and the bones of the corpse are still red after death.
But this poison has been extinct for a long time, because the fire corpse grass is almost extinct, and I have never seen a living one in all these years. ” Everyone nodded after hearing this, so that's it.
Tan Shaoyan frowned, gently touched his chin and seemed thoughtful, "Then I guess I can't be wrong."
"What can't be wrong," Zhanzhao asked him.
Tan Shaoyan frowned and said, "Three days after I took the deal, that person came again, I only told him that my master said that he was old and his eyes were not good, so he couldn't take this job, and my master also asked me to say one more word at that time." ” And all the people looked at him.
"Master asked me to tell him that no one in this world can do anything, so let him give up."
Tan Shaoyan said, "After he took the medicine bag, he weighed it, and found that he didn't lose a penny, so he took the bag and left, and never saw him again." ” Zhan Zhao was also a little concerned after hearing this, "Where did he get that pack of medicinal powder, and there are thirty lives involved here?"
"Not necessarily."
Bai Yutang said, "After all, it's hard to distinguish between truth and falsehood, only a packet of medicinal powder." ” Gongsun also nodded, "That's right, no one knows if that bag is really a fire corpse." ” Tan Shaoyan looked at everyone and said, "If you stop here, I won't come to you." ” Zhan Zhao was taken aback, "And the follow-up, didn't you say that you never saw him again?"
"Although I didn't see what he looked like, listening to the tone of his voice, it seemed to have a Suzhou accent."
Tan Shaoyan said, "It so happened that I was born in Suzhou Mansion, and I had a lot of friends there, so I sent a letter to Xiaoshu and talked about this matter." ” Tan Shaoyan saw that everyone was puzzled, so he said, "My home is by Yangcheng Lake" As soon as Tan Shaoyan spoke, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang reacted almost together, but the content of what the two said in unison was very different.
Zhan Zhao is talking about, "crab" What Bai Yutang said was, "Eryan Palace." ” After speaking, Zhan Zhao blinked.
Tan Shaoyan touched his chin, looked at Zhanzhao again, and felt that he had a new understanding of this legendary southern chivalrous guest, royal cat, and little palace master of the Demon Palace.
Zhan Zhao added, "Of course, there is also Eryan Palace. ” Bai Yutang supported his forehead.
Xiao Sizi thinks that Zhanzhao is right, when it comes to Yangcheng Lake, don't you think about what is the red oil hairy crab Eryan Palace Zhao Pu held a cup, "Although I am not from the rivers and lakes, I have heard of Eryan Palace." ” Gongsun also nodded, "It seems to be a big sect." ” Bai Yutang nodded, "There are many powerful Jianghu sects in the area of Taihu Lake and Zhejiang, and there are four of the largest, all of which are built by the mountains and lakes, with a large scale and a long history.
They are Eryan Palace, Shihutang, Donghuangmen and Luojiazhai. ” Zhao Pu nodded, these sects are indeed quite famous, so he asked Bai Yutang and Zhanzhao, "How much do you two know?"
Zhan Zhao shrugged, "I'm fine, I know a few but I don't have much gang contacts."
Saying that, looking at Bai Yutang, "You are different, these four are all famous and decent, and they should have a lot of dealings with the Tianshan faction." ” Bai Yutang thought for a while and said, "There should be dealings, but I don't care about the Tianshan faction, I only heard that the Tianshan faction has a good relationship with Eryan Palace and Shihutang, and then Luojiazhai has business dealings with Trap Island, and my second brother seems to have a good relationship with Luomanjin." ” "I grew up near Eryan Palace, and many of my friends went to Eryan Palace to learn martial arts, but I didn't go, and my father didn't allow me to worship other disciples."
Tan Shaoyan Road.
Zhan Zhao knew in his heart that after the Demon Palace, he didn't want his descendants to enter other sects to learn martial arts, first, he was afraid of trouble, and he might be excluded if his identity was exposed, and secondly, most of the people after the Demon Palace had ancestral good skills, and they would not be worse than those learned by other sects if they practiced casually.
"I have a brother who has played with me since I was a child, and he is from Eryan Palace."
Tan Shaoyan said, "After I wrote to him about this, he told me one thing. ” Everyone listened with their chins up.
"Recently, the area around Suzhou has not been very peaceful, and there have been several murders one after another."
Tan Shaoyan said, "The senior brother among the four disciples of Eryan Palace died half a month ago. ” Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were stunned.

"Big disciple" Bai Yutang thought for a while, "Yan Tiankai" Tan Shaoyan nodded.
Zhan Zhao felt incredible, "The status of the four major disciples of Eryan Palace is not low, why haven't you heard of such a big thing?"
"It's true that it hasn't come out, and the palace asks for secrecy."
Tan Shaoyan said, "I heard that the death is weird. ” "He was killed," Gongsun asked.
"I don't know."
Tan Shaoyan shook his head and said, "There are different theories about where he died, some say that he died in the forbidden place of Eryan Palace, some say that he died in his own room, and there is also the guest room of the inn, but the basic theory of death is unified It is said that the joints of his whole body are broken, which should be broken by internal force, and then his whole body is wrapped with gold threads, and he is hung on the beam like a puppet puppet. ” Zhan Zhao was stunned for a moment and looked at Bai Yutang.
Bai Yutang also frowned that he had been in the rivers and lakes for so long, and he had never seen any sect kill people like this, and he had such a lot of trouble and personal grudges."
"I've seen Yan Tiankai too."
Zhan Zhao touched his chin, "People are very easy-going, the most important thing is that he is so good at kung fu, and he actually dies like this" Tan Shaoyan spread his hands, "Yan Tiankai is the head of Eryan Palace, it's not a joke to die like this, Eryan Palace shouldn't give up." ” Gongsun asked, "Do you think that murderer has anything to do with the person who asked you to build those ten rings?"
"Hmm," Zhao Pu also thought it was possible, "It's such a coincidence, this kind of death and those rings have something to do with puppet shows." ” "How many murders did you just mention" Bai Yutang asked, "So it's not just Yan Tiankai who died."
"Hmm."
Tan Shaoyan nodded, "It is said that people have died in Shihutang and Donghuangmen, the situation in Luojiazhai is not clear, and the way of death is the same, there is already discord between these sects, and the relationship is even more tense at present." ” "It's a little weird, indeed."
Zhan Zhao shook his head, "It's been too long since I asked about the rivers and lakes, if those sects had any murders, wouldn't they all be publicized all over the world and then held a martial arts conference or something, it's been so low-key recently."
Tan Shaoyan smiled, "I used to hear my father say that the Gate Sect is somewhat secret, I think there may be something hidden that I don't want people to know." ” Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao also nodded, feeling that there might be some ulterior secrets within the sect involved.
"And one more thing."
Tan Shaoyan continued, "Recently, a very famous goldsmith passed away suddenly. ” And they all asked, "Who?"
"I only found out when I was making things for the gold shop, and I heard a few gold shop shopkeepers talk about it."
Tan Shaoyan said, "I don't know if it's a coincidence, the goldsmith is from Suzhou Mansion, called Jinbaoshan." ” "It's very famous."
Bai Yutang had obviously heard of it, "The gold and jade ware produced by Baoshan is famous for its luxury, and the phoenix crown when Concubine Pang got married was made by Jinbaoshan." ” Tan Shaoyan raised his eyebrows, "The fifth master knows how to do it, Jin Baoshan is over seventy years old this year, and he is one of the best goldsmiths in the world."
"How did he die?"
asked Gongsun.
"Legend has it that he was suddenly infected with a strange disease, or a fever disease, and his eyes were red and he died of fever."
Tan Shaoyan said, "It is close to what Mr.
Gongsun just described, the death method of the fire corpse is scattered." ” Gongsun frowned, "Did he take the deal?"
"I inquired in detail, and it is said that he did take over a business before he died, and then he worked intently for several days like a demon, so his family thought he was a strange disease caused by overwork."
Tan Shaoyan said, "I told the master about this matter, and the master only said a word of sin, asking me to be careful when I take over the business in the future, and don't accept unclear guests." ” Tan Shaoyan said this, and said to everyone, "That's all I know. ” Zhan Zhao and the others all nodded, how to say it Judging from their years of experience in handling cases, there is definitely a bit of a relationship here, and this is not a small case, it is a big case, and the trouble is that it involves grievances in the rivers and lakes.
"I always feel a little depressed when I think about it."
Tan Shaoyan said, "If it weren't for Old Man Chen who happened to come to drink that day and reminded me, or if my master didn't know the legend of the art of doping gold, in short, even if I accidentally took this job a little bit, I might have died today." ” Everyone nodded, and they were really scared when they thought about it.
"I have no grievances with that person, it's too much to hurt people like this" Tan Shaoyan said to Zhan Zhao, "Lord Zhan, if you go out on patrol after the year, you might as well go to Suzhou Mansion to have a look." ” Zhan Zhao nodded in agreement, and everyone was aroused After eating, Tan Shaoyan said goodbye and went back, and Zhanzhao and the others slowly walked back to Kaifeng Mansion.
Bai Yutang originally wanted to rush back to Baifu, but was dragged by Zhan Zhao and Xiao Sizi.
Xiao Sizi said to him very seriously, "It's not good for your health to run just after dinner in vain, so you must walk slowly."
So, Bai Yutang and Zhanzhao, who followed the doctor's instructions, walked side by side, and the speed was as slow as stepping on ants.
Zhan Zhao turned his head and winked at the little fourth son who was following behind.
The little fourth son also winked at him.
Zhao Pu looked at him with his arms behind him, "Son Ling" Gongsun laughed, "Don't you still say that he is stupid this morning?"
Gongsun didn't speak loudly, but the little fourth son seemed to hear it, and looked back to see who said I was stupid Zhao Pu hurriedly took two steps forward and picked up his own ball, "My son is good." ” The little fourth son smiled and smiled.
Zhan Bai Yutang actually didn't want to go back to Bai Mansion, it was all messy things.
The two walked through Kaifeng Mansion, and finally Zhanzhao simply accompanied him back to Baifu, saying that he had eaten too much and walked around to eliminate food.
As soon as the two arrived at the gate of Baifu, they saw several convoys just leaving, and Bai Fu ran out, happily, dusting off while running.
"Yo, young master, you're back."
Bai Fu grinned, "The work is done" Bai Yutang was slightly stunned, "Don't you say that you will be busy for a few days?"
"There are capable people to help you," Bai Fu said as he bowed his hand to Zhan Zhao, "Thank you for the good helper introduced by Lord Zhan."
Zhan Zhao was also a stunned helper Bai Yutang and Zhanzhao were stunned at the door, when they heard the sound of laughter coming from the Bai Mansion, as well as two sounds of "whoosh", which seemed to be the sound of the abacus beads shaking.
"Ah" Zhanzhao just jumped.
Looking again, I saw that in the gate of Baifu, three people walked out, and the two who walked in front were An Yunmo and her father-in-law Wu Tianming, who had not seen him for a while, and one behind them was an old man with a black beard, dressed like a bookkeeper, holding a gold abacus with white jade abacus in his hand.

"Zhao'er", the old man went out, and shouted when he saw Zhanzhao.
Zhan Zhao was excited, and pounced up, "Second Grandpa" Bai Yutang understood at a glance that this should be Xiao Jihan, who is known as the Golden Jade God, and is known as Xiao Erye.
His magic calculation is not a fortune telling, but an abacus, this old man is the world's number one bookkeeper, plus Wu Tianming is the best at trading, it is estimated that they helped to finish the work that could only be done in several days.
Zhan Zhao and this "second grandfather" obviously have a good relationship, and after being hot for a long time, he dragged Bai Yutang to introduce him, and sure enough, Xiao Er was a god Second Master Xiao should be very familiar with Tianzun, and he greeted Bai Yutang happily.
Zhan Zhao wanted to ask An Yunmo why they came, but after thinking about it, he also asked a little more, Wu Tianming is Wu Yicao's nephew, and An Yunmo is the closest to Jiuniang, when he heard that they were going to get married, where could they still sit still, it is estimated that they couldn't wait to come, and Aunt Cheng at home should be very happy.
Sure enough, An Yunmo told Zhanzhao that the Demon Palace celebrates every day with cannons and is more lively than the New Year.
The arrival of these people saved Bai Yutang from the sea of suffering, and the fifth master was finally able to easily return to Kaifeng Mansion to raise cats.
So everyone walked to Kaifeng Mansion together.
Zhan Zhao remembered that Wu Tianming and An Yunmo were doing business in the two Zhejiang areas, and there should be a lot of business in Suzhou Mansion, so he asked them if the four major sects in Suzhou Mansion had any recent life lawsuits.
Zhan Zhao asked, Wu Tianming was stunned, touched his chin and said, "Speaking of which, it is true that there was a murder in Donghuangmen a while ago, and it was quite a big trouble, and it is said that a disciple died in the inn, and he was hung on the beam of the house like a person." ” Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang glanced at each other, the same way as Yan Tiankai's death.
"Is Yan Tiankai also dead?"
asked Zhan Zhao.
An Yunmo squinted his eyes, "Oh, sure enough, the rumors are true."
"Then it's not just Yan Tiankai and the East Emperor Gate."
Second Master Xiao said, "I heard that Shihutang and Luojiazhai also died. ” Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang both frowned, regardless of whether the murderer was the one who used poison powder to make a ring, it was not easy to offend the four major sects at the same time with this breath
