Chapter 238 Repaying kindness with hatred
Chapter 238 Repaying kindness with hatred
The moment the ghost head flew out of the broken tile, Shang Lu reacted.
The blood and energy wrapped around the broken tiles immediately turned into shackles that locked the ghost's head tightly.
At the same time, he clenched his left fist and attacked the ghost head.
"boom--"
Powerful blood energy whizzed out from the fist, instantly hitting the ghost's head and tearing it apart violently.
The next moment, blood flowed from the broken tiles and broken saws, like two bloody snakes opening their bloody mouths to swallow the Smilax glabra.
But Shang Lu's right hand was faster than the two streaks of blood!
A handful of cinnabar powder was thrown from his hand.
When the fishy blood hit the cinnabar powder, it began to boil, not only emitting a pungent stench, but also turning into a blood scab in an instant.
While stopping the bloody mess, Shang Lu activated his blood energy and pulled the broken tiles and broken saw directly in front of him.
Sanniang and Shang Lu cooperated well. With a wave of her hand, two iron nails tempered with black dog blood flew out of the bag and fell into Shang Lu's hands.
Shang Lu grabbed the iron nail and hammered it directly into the strange spell on the broken tiles and broken saw.
The blood that was gushing out stopped flowing immediately, as if it was blocked by the two iron nails.
Although the broken tiles and broken saw no longer had any strange reactions, Shang Lu still did not touch them directly. He just dragged them with his blood and energy and sent them to Qin.
At this moment, Shang Lu jumped down from the main beam and said to Qin: "Look at the birth date and time above. Is it yours?"
Qin took a look and immediately shouted, "Yes, it's ours."
"It's really a curse."
Shang Lu nodded, turned around and shouted outside the house.
"Uncle Huai, light a fire."
The leaves and branches of the old locust tree trembled, as if responding to the rhubarb. At the same time, a flame burst out from the weeds, igniting the dry weeds.
Inside the house, Shang Lu pointed at the broken tiles and the broken saw and said in a deep voice:
“This is a curse in the art of curse.
If these two things are hidden on the main beam, anyone living here will have their energy and essence stolen.
And if your birth date and time were written on the broken saw, it would cause your family to be broken up and you would not have peace even after death.
It is good that you two are imprisoned in this house. Your husband and father cannot go to the netherworld either, and I am afraid they have become wandering ghosts.
Fortunately, it is still wandering in the mountains and forests.
If you are unlucky, you will either be burned to death by the scorching sun, eaten by demons, or captured by wizards and alchemists to be refined into a magical weapon for demons. "
Qin and Daya's eyes once again shed tears of blood, and they begged in sorrowful voices:
"Sir, please make the decision for us, please give us justice..."
Shang Lu said, "I am a thief official. Since I have encountered this matter, I will naturally take care of it. Let me ask you, do you know who hid these two things between the main beam and the pillar?"
"It's Zhao Qi! It must be Zhao Qi!"
Qin screamed, her whole face becoming ferocious with anger.
"Who is Zhao Qi?" Shang Lu asked.
"He is my husband's nephew. He once helped us repair the roof. Yes, ever since he repaired the roof, our family's luck has not been very good. Not long after, my husband was killed by thieves while on his way out for business!"
Qin gritted her teeth, causing the negative energy to become even stronger.
"Do you have a grudge against Zhao Qi?" Shang Lu asked again. "Not only do we not have a grudge, we are also grateful to him." Qin said angrily, "When my husband was alive, he took good care of Zhao Qi and even took him to do business. But later he became addicted to gambling and became addicted to it. My husband talked to him several times but it was useless, so he cut off all contact with him.
Before my husband got into trouble, he came to our house, helped us repair the roof, and then borrowed money from my husband.
My husband knew that he was borrowing money for gambling, so he didn't give it to him, and he then threatened to destroy our family.
But at that time, we didn't take it seriously. Not long after, my husband was killed by thieves while he was out on business.
After my husband died, Zhao Qi came to my house with a will, saying that it was written by my husband and that the family property would be left to him as inheritance.
Naturally I refused, so he tried to take me away by force, and my family members beat him out.
When he left, he scolded us for being ungrateful and told us not to regret it.
A few days later, Daya and I contracted a serious illness and passed away.”
After listening to this, Shang Lu frowned and asked, "Have you ever suspected before that the curse in your home was cast by Zhao Qi? Were you harmed by him?"
Qin shook her head: "I dare not lie to you, sir, but we really didn't think of Zhao Qi before. It's like something covered up this memory. It wasn't until the ghost head was destroyed just now that I recalled these things."
Shang Lu thought thoughtfully: "It seems that this is also the effect of the magic of exorcism."
After asking about Zhao Qi, Shang Lu said, "These are just your one-sided statements. I need to investigate whether the murderer is Zhao Qi or someone else. But don't worry, I have taken your case and will give you a result!"
Qin was overjoyed when she heard this. She pulled Daya to kneel down again and kowtowed repeatedly: "Thank you, sir. Thank you, Lord Qingtian."
Shang Lu accepted their greetings, turned around and walked outside the house, threw the broken tiles and broken saw in his hands into the burning fire, took out a porcelain bottle, poured some powder from it, and the flames immediately turned green.
Shang Lu did not stay at home, but went out directly, on the one hand to purchase furniture, and on the other hand to find Zhao Qi to inquire about the situation.
With Uncle Huai and Heiyun at home, there was no need to worry even if Qin and Daya were acting strangely. Moreover, Shang Lu felt that they did not seem to be faking it.
After walking out of the door and taking a few steps, Shang Lu felt that several people from the nearby families were leaning against the cracks in the door, secretly looking at him.
Shang Lu knew that the cold wind and the howling of ghosts and wolves in the house just now must have alarmed the neighbors.
They were both scared and curious. If they were not afraid of attracting evil spirits, they would have come out to watch the fun instead of peeking through the crack of the door.
Shang Lu immediately bowed to the people around him and said loudly: "I am Shang Lu. From today on, I will be your neighbor. Please take care of me in the future."
Afterwards, without caring whether the neighbors around him were surprised or astonished, he quickly walked out of Mingyue Lane and chased after the two runners he had just sent away.
The two officers did not return to the thief Cao's office, but went to the brothel together to listen to music.
As a result, as soon as they arrived at the brothel, they were caught up by Shang Lu, and they were so scared that they hurried to explain.
"Don't get me wrong, sir. We didn't skip work to listen to the music. We came here to get information."
"Yes, yes, please find out the news, sir, please don't misunderstand me."
Shang Lu thought to himself that it would be strange if I believed you, but he said:
"Do you know Zhao Qi? His nickname is Zhizunbao. He used to be in the rice business and was addicted to gambling."
Zhizunbao is the super star that gamblers dream of. Zhao Qi uses this as a nickname, which shows that his winnings from gambling are really big.
But to Shang Lu, this guy dared to call himself Supreme Treasure, which was simply a blasphemy to the name!
When the two officers heard Zhao Qi, they didn't react much, but when they heard Zhizunbao's nickname, they immediately nodded.
"I know. Sir, you are looking for this man? He is probably gambling at the moment. Strangely enough, this man has been very lucky recently and always wins."
Shang Lu nodded and pointed at one of the officers: "Take me to find him."
Then he took out a list and handed it to another officer.
"Please help me buy all the furniture on the list and have the store deliver it to Mingyue Lane. Someone will be there to receive the payment."
