I am born with insufficiency

Chapter 15: Serial Killing Needles ([-])
Zhu Yuanbao's bluff attracted several groups of people who were confronting each other over there, and Zhu Ding ran over to protect Master Taichang's body with a "wow" and cried with snot and tears.

"How can you be so disrespectful to the master, you will be struck by thunder!"

"Requiem is half, the master will not be able to cross the Naihe Bridge."

Mrs. Taichang rushed over with eight young ladies, complaining and scolding, crying loudly.

"Yuan Bao, stop messing around and kowtow to your father to apologize."

Zhu Yuanbao said aggrievedly: "Miss Qiao'er has such a long poisonous needle in her throat, she was stabbed to death by the poisonous needle. My father also died inexplicably, why don't you look for it? Don't pull out the poisonous needle Come out, can my father rest his soul?"

Zhu Ding stopped crying when he heard the words, rolled his eyes, and groped around on Master Taichang, "What kind of poisonous needle, I've looked for it, and there is no poisonous needle on the master. This matter still falls on the magistrate of the county. He was poisoned to death by the wine toasted by the magistrate."

Then he told the servants: "Let me watch him closely, don't let him slip away, we have to tie him up to the government office to seek justice for the master."

Zhu Ding has been an official in the capital for many years with Master Taichang, and has seen many ostentations. He behaves more like a master than a master. The faces of these slaves are even more serious. How can they put a small county magistrate in their eyes?Hulachao surrounded the county magistrate Lu.

County magistrate Lu complained so much that he almost wanted to die.

However, County Magistrate Lu is a person who has been in the officialdom after all, so he calmed down and thought about it in a panic. Although his official rank is low, he is in office, and Mr. Taichang has not yet taken office. What are these slaves afraid of?
"I think I have figured it out. Today's matter was originally aimed at me."

The noisy Zhu Mansion compound suddenly fell silent.

County magistrate Lu coughed, shook his authority, looked around the crowd, and focused on Zhu Ding.

"Butler Yizhu is so angry and eager to accuse me of crimes. Could it be that this cup of poisoned wine was originally intended to poison me, but it was just a mistake that poisoned Master Taichang? I want to ask you about the crime of intentionally harming an official appointed by the court! Lu Yang, cheer up this official, whoever dares to do it again, will not be soft!"

The originally quiet corner was disturbed again, and the entourage of the county magistrate of Lu and the family members of Zhu's house changed places and got involved again.

Qi Liuhai was afraid that he would not be outdone if he could not get the silver, so he led Ge Gen and others to boldly step forward to stir up trouble.

Poor Mr. Taichang could no longer live in peace, he was trampled on and kicked a few times by someone, and his clothes were torn, he was in a terrible state of distress.

Coupled with the wind blowing at dusk, yellow talismans were flying all over the sky, and the scene was miserable, as if the road to the underworld was near.

"Father, father." Zhu Yuanbao wanted to cry, but his nine mothers could not help at all, and they cried louder than each other, which made him very upset, and he slumped on the ground.

However, Ling An only cared about being in the crowd, looking around for Master Taichang's body, and was squeezed out by chaotic footsteps from time to time.

Gu Buquan looked left and right, grabbed the gong from Ge Gen's hand and slammed it loudly.

"Master Taichang said that he is crossing the bridge, and he feels a little lonely. You guys like to be so lively, so you can accompany him to cross the bridge. Flower rattles the bell, don't you?"

Gu Bu was engrossed in talking, pulling flowers and ringing bells to testify.

"Yes, yes, Master Taichang said just now, crossing the bridge alone is too lonely, and I want to find some old friends to have fun together."

Hua Yaoling faltered, even though she was annoyed that Gu Buquan dragged her off the stage, she had to follow her and nod, otherwise she would sing and dance for a long time, and she hadn't talked to Mr. Taichang until now. Through the spiritual connection, do you still want to do business in the future, and can you still earn money?

"No, no, no, we don't like excitement, we don't."

"We are not old friends of Mr. Taichang. We are not familiar with each other. It is better for Mr. Taichang to cross the bridge by himself."

Everyone was so frightened that they shook their heads and waved their hands, not daring to show their anger, for fear that they would be picked by Master Taichang to cross the Naihe Bridge together.

The noisy scene has just settled down.

"Actually, it's not difficult for Mr. Taichang to cross the Naihe Bridge with peace of mind. As long as the truth of his death is found out and the murderer is punished, his soul will be restored and no one will be wronged. Everyone agrees?"

Gu Buquan was born small and dainty, and he looked even smaller when standing among the crowd, but at this moment when everyone looked at this coffin girl who had never paid much attention to her, she was so charming.

"Ahem..." Under the gazes of the crowd, Gu Buquan felt shy and coughed a few times, "Don't look at me, let's see how the idiot finds out the evil."

Under everyone's silent gaze, Ling An stepped forward again, leaned over to inspect for a long time, and finally his eyes clearly fell on Master Taichang's forehead.

All that remains of Master Taichang is a yellow talisman stuck on his forehead.

The deceased is very big, his face cannot see the light of day after death, usually covered with a white cloth, because Master Taichang died violently, he used the biggest yellow talisman, covering most of his face.

Gu Buquan gently lifted the yellow talisman to have a look, but there was nothing unusual about it.

Seeing the confusion on Ling An's face, Gu Buquan was completely disappointed.

She turned around, thinking about how to deal with the difficult crowd, but the moment she turned around, the yellow talisman flew up along with it, revealing Master Taichang's forehead and entire face.

Ling An didn't care about anything anymore, forced her head back, and pointed it straight at Master Taichang's forehead—a tiny dimple that had been overlooked before suddenly appeared.

Ling An stretched out her hand, and Gu Buquan immediately handed over her tweezers made of chopsticks as if she had a tacit understanding.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, an iron needle as thin as a hair was pinched out bit by bit from between Master Taichang's eyebrows.

At this moment, the afternoon sun was shining on the poisonous needle, refracting a dazzling light, which made the cloaked man on the opposite roof dizzy.

The man in the cloak collected himself and wanted to take a closer look. Out of the corner of his eye, two figures, one black and one white, fell behind him.

But it is black and white.

He immediately pulled Bai Wuchang back, and because of too much force, he pulled her into his arms and pressed her against his chest, and was just wrapped by his cloak.

And Heiwuchang rolled down from the ridge of the roof until he grabbed the corner of the eaves before he settled down.

Wrapped in a black cloak, Bai Wuchang turned his back up, just saw his looming face, did not dare to breathe out, only felt that his face was burning like fire.

The man in the cloak felt something was wrong, and hurriedly pushed Bai Wuchang away, her feet were unsteady and she staggered a few times, and he had to hold her arm again to stabilize herself.

"Black and white are impermanent, you guys are so courageous."

The hoarse voice of the man in the cloak was like thunder, which made Hei Wuchang tremble in fright, almost falling off the eaves.

"Your Majesty, we did not accept this transaction."

Bai Wuchang tried his best to calm down, only to hear his own voice trembling, but it was not because of fear, but a feeling she had never had before, flustered and flustered, thankful that she had a thick smear on her face A layer of white paint, otherwise it must be red.

Heiwuchang managed to climb up from the corner of the room, and bowed his head in front of the cloaked man.

"Your Majesty, we keep in mind the tenet of 'casting your life is risky, and you must be cautious in ordering your life'. This is true for life managers, and we also take risks for our bank. We will never dare to go against your will to manage the orders of officials. .It’s just because the matter in the Zhu Mansion looks too strange this time, and I’m afraid there is another reason.”

This black and white impermanence was originally a matter of nothing to do with oneself, and people slapped their asses and left, but when they approached the bank, the more they thought about it, the more wrong it became. Although they ignored the fate of Master Taichang, could Lord Yan have misunderstood it?
Once Lord Yan decides that the two of them have broken the rules of the bank, they will die without a place to die.

So I turned back to investigate, but saw the cloaked man standing on the ridge of the roof.

"Is he the king of Hades or the judge?" Hei Wuchang couldn't make up his mind.

"It doesn't matter, just call your lord."

Together, the two were about to go forward to say hello, but just happened to be pierced by the light from the sun and the poisonous needle, and before they could open their mouths, they were sent flying with a palm.

"You two really didn't care about Zhu Gui's life?" the cloaked man asked suspiciously.

"The conscience of heaven and earth." Hei Wuchang swears, pointing to the sky and the earth, "From the master Taichang down to the maidservant, his family's life is ignored, and no one places an order."

"My lord, I wonder if there will be other banks stealing our business?" Bai Wuchang said.

Hei Wuchang blinked, and tentatively said, "Perhaps, it may not be the semicolon opened by Lord Yan."

"Only this one-acre land with a semicolon? Lord Yan, is the old man in a daze?"

Bai Wuchang sneered, and at the same time quietly raised his eyes to take a peek at the man in the cloak. The pair of sharp eyes hidden behind the cloak happened to pass her eyes, and he immediately bowed his head silently.

"Your Majesty, since the opening of our bank account, the business has been one after another, and all of them are good. It is not impossible for little devils to envy us." Hei Wuchang pulled Bai Wuchang, muttering in a low voice.

"Hmm..." The cloaked man fell silent.

As Hei Wuchang said, their fortune-telling business is booming now, and there is an endless stream of people who surrender their lives and place orders. Even people from the county seat and several nearby counties have heard about it, and this naturally includes officials in the officialdom. Misunderstood.

Although their bank does not accept business from officials, if there are other like-minded people, they may not be willing to abide by their rules.

Therefore, the death of Taichang Temple Minister Zhu Gui became more and more confusing.

In particular, there was a girl Qiao'er who died at a young age, which made him very puzzled.

"It's either a natural disaster or a man-made disaster. I want to see who dares to block my way of making money behind my back, and I will make him understand that only the king of hell can manage the fate of the world."

"Your Majesty, I don't understand, since King Yan can manage the world's fate, why should he be afraid of officials?"

"It's not about being afraid, it's about avoiding trouble." The man in the cloak said quietly, "If you want to do any business for a long time, you must know how to avoid all troubles. With the Jade Emperor, the Jade Emperor has to give the Tathagata Buddha seven points of face. Only when the face is given enough can we live in peace."

Black and white impermanence nodded frequently.

"Then, could the murderer be the county magistrate?" Hei Wuchang asked again.

Bai Wuchang retorted: "Improbable, how can there be such a stupid county magistrate who kills himself, and is caught and unable to escape after killing someone."

"He's not stupid, why is he still a little sesame official after all these years?"

"In my opinion, that butler is even more suspicious. He is the most active in the audience. Since you and I have been trying to figure out our fortunes for a long time, which one is the most active, isn't it the person who placed the order?"

Unable to argue over black and white, Qiqi asked the cloaked man for advice: "What do you think, my lord?"

The cloaked man shook his head: "I don't know."

He stared down at the Zhu Mansion compound, and said to himself, "This idiot doesn't look stupid, if he can really find the culprit behind it from a needle, I will reward him with ten years of life."

Hei Wuchang leaned forward and said: "I don't know if the idiot is stupid or not, but the coffin girl looks very shrewd, and the ten-year lifespan is..." He glanced at the cloaked man quietly, and secretly complained that he was a little bit partiality.

Ten years of life, what Black and White Impermanence dreamed of, was a wealth that the two of them could never spend in their lifetime.

Bai Wuchang pursed his lips and snorted: "Smart? It's just half a catty. How long have they been staring at the needle? If it weren't for the distance, they would have seen their cross-eyed eyes. Just the two of them, want to win the honor of your majesty." Ten years?"

The man in the cloak said in a low voice, "Not convinced? If the two of you can find out the ugly Yinmao, I will give you ten years of life as well."

"It's settled, it's ten years for each person." Black and white impermanence is very joyful.

"Don't be too perfect, don't need to be too perfect, keep a corner of the sky, and be a person forever." The man in the cloak is not sure whether he is talking about the impermanence of black and white or talking to himself.

Bai Wuchang asked: "Is what your lord said incomplete?"

The cloaked man did not answer for a long time.
