Chapter 41 Concealment Talisman

"1000 taels of silver?" the woman exclaimed.

"Are there any conditions?" Mrs. Hu exclaimed.

Sun Xueyao pursed her lips, with an imperceptible sarcasm in her eyes.

Xiao Luoyi seemed unaware and didn't even look at Sun Xueyao. He only focused his gaze on Mrs. Hu's face: "After I find that thing for you, I don't care about anything that follows, and you don't want to come to me again."

"Sure!" Mrs. Hu gritted her teeth and agreed.

For a daughter from a merchant's family to marry the legitimate son of a prefect, it was considered a high achievement. Madam Hu knew that behind this marriage was not just a matter of the juniors living together, but also the influence of the prefect.

This can directly benefit your own business!
If you can save this marriage, even if you save your big umbrella, what is 1000 taels of silver?
Xiao Luoyi stretched out his hand.

Mrs. Hu was stunned for a moment before she realized: Xiao Luoyi wanted to get the money first.

But thinking about asking Taoist Master Xing, Mrs. Hu gritted her teeth and glared at the old lady beside her.

The woman felt distressed and heartbroken and went to get the banknote.

Not long after, the banknote arrived. Xiao Luoyi took the banknote with one hand, got up and walked out.

"Oh! Why did you run away?" the mother-in-law shouted, reaching out to pinch Xiao Luoyi's arm.

Xiao Luoyi took a step forward, but the mother-in-law did not catch him. Just when she was about to call the servants to catch Xiao Luoyi, she heard Xiao Luoyi say in a cold voice: "Follow me."

The group of people followed Xiao Luoyi out, making three turns and two turns. Everyone was shocked: this place was actually the lakeside at home.

Xiao Luoyi walked along the lake for a while and came to the foot of a remote willow tree. He pointed at the big stone under the tree and said, "Open this stone and be careful."

Everyone looked at the table-sized stone in shock: "You mean, that Geng Tie was pressed underneath?"

Xiao Luoyi's tone was still calm: "If it's pressed underneath, you'll know if you open it and take a look."

At this time, no one noticed that a flash of panic flashed in the eyes of the eldest lady Sun Xueyao.

Two strong servants came over and worked together to lift the big stone slab. The bottom was... full of broken sand.

"No!" The mother-in-law almost screamed and was about to open her mouth to ask someone to arrest Xiao Luoyi.

Xiao Luoyi sneered, picked up a small wooden stick from the side, and started pulling it in the mud.

Everyone held their breath and concentrated, but there was a look of contempt in their eyes: This beautiful little woman failed to pretend to be a ghost, and she wants to make up for it?
Doesn't she know that if it's not there, it's not there? No matter how hard it is, it won't come out.

Mrs. Hu was disappointed, but she was still thinking about the backstage of Wenxing Taoist Priest, and said: "It's normal that she can't find it. After all, everyone has looked for it... Madam Xiao only needs to return the money and promise not to tell anyone about this in the future. It’s done.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Xiao Luoyi pulling over with a stick, and a purse wrapped in talisman paper was revealed in the sand.

This……

Everyone was immediately stunned: Could it really be Geng Tie?

The mother-in-law immediately dismissed everyone: "You all stand down!"

The maids and servants left one after another, and the mother-in-law stepped forward in person to clear away the mud and sand, opened her purse, and revealed a crumpled Geng Tie.

"This...this..." I really found it!
For a moment, Mrs. Hu felt that her mind could not spin anymore. She was happy and in a daze at the same time.

Sun Xueyao's face turned pale.

Xiao Luoyi glanced at the concealment talisman, and then looked at Madam Hu: "Madam, is this what you are looking for?"

Mrs. Hu looked at the wrinkled Geng Tie and nodded hastily: "Yes! Yes..."

Fortunately, the stone was large and blocked the rain. Although the Geng Tie was wrinkled, there was no sign of being soaked. I think it can be restored... "Then I'll say goodbye." Xiao Luoyi walked away.

Only then did Mrs. Hu react and quickly kept up with Xiao Luoyi: "Mrs. Xiao, walk slowly! I'll see you off."

What to give?Are you afraid that you will speak out and want to block your mouth?

Sure enough, Mrs. Hu asked her mother-in-law to hand a purse to Xiao Luoyi: "We were so flustered just now that we spoke inappropriately. Please don't take offense, Mrs. Xiao..."

"It's okay."

"This matter has not been investigated clearly. It concerns my little daughter's reputation. After leaving this door, I asked Madam Xiao to keep the secret of my Sun Mansion."

"Don't worry, I'm not a talkative person." Xiao Luoyi nodded, took his wallet and went to the front yard to meet Chen Huaijin and Wenxing Taoist Priest.

Chen Huaijin wanted to make purchases in Yongzhou Fucheng, so he simply didn't ask for their carriage to deliver them. The three of them left the Sun Mansion and wandered around.

Wen Xingdao was full of doubts. Chen Huaijin, who did not follow him to the backyard, also felt strange: Xiao Luoyi came out less than half an hour after entering. Did he find it or not?
So Master Wenxing looked around, pointed at a teahouse and said, "Shall we go in and have a rest?"

Xiao Luoyi looked at Chen Huaijin, his voice was delicate and soft, his eyes were watery: "Mr., are you going?"

When Chen Huaijin looked at her like this, the back of his head felt numb, and he nodded subconsciously: "Go."

The three of them entered the teahouse and found a remote corner where no one was sitting. After the tea was served, they asked Taoist Master Xing in a low voice, "How was it? Did you find it?"

Xiao Luoyi nodded lightly.

Taoist Master Wen Xing's eyes widened immediately: "How did you find it? Why can't you find it in the divination?"

Xiao Luoyi pursed his lips: "Concealing Talisman."

Wenxing Taoist Priest: "!!!"

Concealment charm?
It turned out to be the legendary concealment talisman?

It is said that this kind of talisman is difficult to draw, much more difficult than the spirit-seeking talisman he drew!

And the bigger the talisman is, the more difficult it is to draw... But once it is successful, the object wrapped by the concealment talisman will be like a secret being obscured. It is almost impossible to find it through the magic of finding objects!
"Where did you find it?"

Xiao Luoyi said it was under a big rock by the lake and explained the process.

The little Taoist priest Wenxing suffered a critical hit of [-] points: This means that the hiding place cannot be easily verified by digging out, but Mrs. Xiao can find it accurately and firmly let people move the big stone. …

She is really confident in her abilities!

But how did Madam Xiao do it?
She is actually so powerful... that she can break through the hidden secrets covered by the concealment talisman? !

She doesn't look much older than me...is the gap so big?

Worthy of being an expert.

Chen Huaijin glanced at the new purse hanging on Xiao Luoyi's waist: "It's not safe for you to hang it like this. Let me hold it first."

"Okay." Xiao Luoyi obediently handed the purse to his tall, secure husband.

The young Taoist Wenxing then turned his attention to his purse and asked curiously: "You helped them find such an important thing. How much Gua Yin did they give you?"

Xiao Luoyi didn't even see how much was in the purse he was given later, so he immediately looked at Chen Huaijin.

Chen Huaijin took out his wallet, which contained a stack of banknotes, 100 taels each, ten of them, and a separate one that was given to him before leaving, also worth 100 taels...

Xiao Luoyi was surprised: This hush fee is high enough!
The young Taoist priest Wen Xing was even more shocked: One thousand or one hundred taels? !
This... is this too generous?

Chen Huaijin was also stunned: One thousand and one hundred taels? !
It took less than half a day for the lady to go back and forth, but she made a thousand or one hundred taels? !
