And said you're not a fairy

Chapter 69 What a Big Mouse!

When Gongsun Yue came again, he had already changed into a green official uniform, and he was accompanied by thirteen government servants.

Gongsun Yue wears an official uniform, a crimson gauze singlet, a white gauze middle single, crimson gauze knees covered, white socks and black boots, a Jinxian crown on his head, a round collar and large sleeves.

In Chen Yuan's impression, it was a kind of court dress that he had never seen before.

The leader of the yacha is Hu Sifang who visited him before.

"Daoist, this man is called Hu Sifang, he is reliable in his work, and he is good at martial arts. Since he took the post of head arrester and retired, I intend to promote him to be the head of the team and let him temporarily manage the entire yamen in Pingliang County."

In the courtyard, Gongsun Yue, the county magistrate, introduced Hu Sifang to Chen Yuan.

"Then I'll trouble Team Leader Hu about this matter."

Hearing what Gongsun Yue said, Chen Yuan bowed to Hu Sifang.

"Where, how dare, it is Hu's honor to be able to work for the Taoist priest."

Hu Sifang waved his hands again and again.

He was also one of the government servants who were arranged by the magistrate Gongsun Yue to deliver the golden stool.

At the beginning, he thought the same as his magistrate, how could such a good thing make those bandits cheaper.

Even though the county magistrate relayed Chen Yuan's original words, he was still skeptical, and even had the desire to steal the golden stool away.

It is really a golden stool, it can be said to be priceless, if you steal the golden stool, you don't have to worry about food and drink for the rest of your life.

This has nothing to do with integrity or not, but the greed that people will have when facing precious things.

Fortunately, both he and the yamen who were sent to handle errands at that time stuck to their bottom line.

Ever since the golden stool was given to the gang of bandits, the clothes were flawless. The government yamen encircled and suppressed the robbers who were always able to escape several times, and died miserably for various reasons one after another.

He and the yamen who were sent to handle the matter at that time, after knowing this, were secretly glad in their hearts. If they were greedy for the golden stool, they would be the ones who died.

Seeing that Chen Yuan is so powerful, in his eyes, Chen Yuan is already a fairy-like figure.

"The bones are at the bottom of the ancient well, and Bantou Hu can send Yamen down to check."

Chen Yuan then said.

"Then Hu will go to work first."

Hu Sifang pleaded guilty.

So he asked his servants to pull the rope by the well, and took two servants himself, and slipped down the rope to the bottom of the well to find the bones.

When the yamen yamen went to the bottom of the well to find the corpse, Chen Yuan asked Gongsun Yue to sit down at the stone table under the pear tree.

This time, because of the crowds in the yard, Chen Yuan didn't order the white mouse Xueniang, but went to the kitchen to make a pot of high-quality tea from Gongsun Yue, the county magistrate last time.

Sitting at a stone table with Gongsun Yue, the county magistrate, drinking tea.

squeak~
After Chen Yuan and Gongsun Yue, the county magistrate, had a few cups of tea, the white mouse Xueniang ran out of the house and yelled around Chen Yuan.

"What a big mouse!"

Gongsun Yue, the county magistrate, changed his expression.

Seeing this scene, Gongsun Yue, the magistrate of the county, thought it was a white domestic cat raised by Chen Yuan at first.

After looking carefully at the head and tail, it turned out to be a white mouse as big as a house cat.

Gongsun Yue, the county magistrate, was so startled that he almost didn't jump up.

"Don't be nervous, magistrate, this mouse was raised by the poor, and it has some fate with the poor."

Chen Yuan comforted the magistrate Gongsun Yue.

"How did the Daoist raise the rat? This rat is bigger than a house cat. I'm afraid it's about to become a monster?"

Gongsun Yue, the magistrate, said in surprise.

Since the white mouse Xueniang didn't show up when he came last time, the sudden sight just now frightened him a lot.

"It's just bigger than ordinary mice."

Chen Yuan shook his head.

Although Xue Niang already possessed human-like intelligent intelligence and was indeed considered a demon, Chen Yuan definitely couldn't admit it.

"The Taoist priest is indeed an extraordinary person, even the pets he raises are so...unique."

In the end, Gongsun Yue only came up with a unique word to describe it.

Rats are one of the four pests in the home, and most people should keep raccoons or dogs as pets.

Who would have thought that Daoist Chen in front of him would actually raise a rat.

What's more important is that this mouse is very big, which is the only one he has ever seen in his life.

Gongsun Yue observed Xueniang carefully for a while, and he found that the white mouse running around Chen Yuan had slender hair and snow-white fur. Not only was it not as ugly as ordinary house mice, but it looked disgusting.

And the appearance is very cute. After seeing it, he couldn't help being a little moved, and even came up with the idea of ​​raising such a white mouse.

For a while, Gongsun understood Chen Yuan more.

Just when Gongsun Yue shook his head and threw this unbelievable thought out of his mind.

The news that Gongsun Yue, the county magistrate, was wearing an official uniform and came to the door with more than a dozen government servants, has spread throughout the alley.

When Hu Sifang went to the bottom of the well to search for the bones, the gate of Chen Yuan's house was gradually surrounded by neighbors who stood outside the gate and stretched their necks to watch the excitement.

Not only the neighbors in this alley, but even the residents in the next alley also came to watch the excitement after hearing the news.

Since this place is not far from Lihua Lane, Chen Yuan's brother and sister-in-law also received the news.

The husband and wife thought that Chen Yuan had suffered a lawsuit, so they quickly dropped their work and rushed over without stopping.

After pushing away the crowd watching the excitement at the door, the two walked into the yard. Chen Wenqing saw that the yard was really full of official servants as others said, and his expression changed immediately.

He hurriedly asked Chen Yuan who was drinking tea with the magistrate under the pear tree: "Erlang, what happened? Why are there so many officials in the yard?"

Chen Yuan got up to comfort the two: "It's okay, brother, brother and sister-in-law. It's just that when I was digging a well, I dug up six skeletons in this ancient well in the yard, so I informed the county magistrate and asked the people from the yamen to come and take a look." .”

Only now did Chen Wenqing and Wu Qingping notice that the county magistrate's parents were also there, so they didn't dare to be rude, so they quickly saluted the county magistrate Gongsun Yue.

But Gongsun Yue didn't dare to take it too seriously, he knew that the couple in front of him were Chen Yuan's brother and sister-in-law, so he hurriedly asked them to excuse themselves.

Chen Wenqing then asked Chen Yuan: "How did you find the bones in the well?"

Chen Yuan shook his head and said, "I don't know, but according to my speculation, the six skeletons at the bottom of the well are probably one of the previous owners of this house."

Chen Yuan glanced at the crowd again, and saw that they were all surprised, so he continued:

"Before this house, there were always strange things happening, which caused accidents for the next few owners, and it was even rumored that there were monsters in this house. This is actually the reason."

Gongsun Yue, the county magistrate, suddenly understood what Chen Yuan meant, and asked: "The Taoist chief means that there is no demon in this house, but the owner of the skeleton at the bottom of the well is haunted, right?"

Chen Yuan nodded and said: "To be honest, since I lived in this house, I have encountered several strange things. In the middle of the night, I saw a group of small people three or four inches tall crying in my room. I think they are ghosts. Not a monster."

The elder brother Chen Wenqing and brother-in-law Wu Qingping beside him couldn't help but feel moved.

Seeing that Chen Yuan has lived in this house for so long and is fine, they thought that what the shopkeeper said before was just a rumor.

Now it seems that everything is true.

It's just that Chen Yuan didn't tell them what happened to him before.

"As for whether these skeletons are not dissatisfied, I don't know. I still need you, the county magistrate, to find out the identities of those skeletons."

Chen Yuan then said again.

"I found it. As the Taoist priest said, the skeleton is in the cave at the bottom of the well. We will tie the skeleton to a rope, and you will pull the skeleton up."

At this moment, Hu Sifang's voice came from the bottom of the well.

After the yamen above agreed, one skeleton after another was pulled up to the mouth of the well.

After six skeletons were pulled up, they were neatly placed in the courtyard where Chen Yuan lived.

Because the picture was too scary, they were all covered with straw mats.

After finding the six skeletons and sending them up, Hu Sifang and the other three officials who went down the well also climbed up from the bottom of the well along the rope.

"My lord, I found out. The seventh owner of this house is a family of six. They disappeared together ten years ago. Later, this house was inherited by his nephew."

Not long after the bones were brought up, two yamen servants came to the courtyard to look for Gongsun Yue, the magistrate, with a copy of the document they had just found.

Yamen generally handles cases at the same time.

It is impossible to do it step by step, it would be too time consuming.
