From the strange scene I saw through the window last night, plus the few coffins that had just been carried by the funeral team, Chen Jin knew that something must have happened in this small town last night.

Because in a small town like this, it is normal that five people die together on the same day.

After passing by the donkey cart carrying the Taoist priests outside his home gate, after about half an hour, the setting sun in the sky began to set westward, and the light between heaven and earth gradually became dim.

Just as Chen Jin was about to enter the house, he saw two people walking towards their own direction to the west of the town.

One of these two people is the middle-aged Taoist priest wearing a yellow Taoist robe, and the other one, in Chen Jin's memory, should be named Liao Ji.

Soon, the two of them walked to the road in front of Chen Jin's house. Then, Liao Ji took out a key from his arms, opened the gate of the ancestral hall, and led the Taoist priest in.

Seeing this, Chen Jin, who was curious, walked to the half-closed door of the ancestral hall after the two of them entered the ancestral hall, and looked inside.

"Master Wu, after we dug up the sarcophagus yesterday, we parked it in it all night. Because we thought the sarcophagus was too weird, we carried the sarcophagus to the mountain east of the town and buried it this afternoon."

"What a serious evil spirit."

Under the leadership of Liao Ji, the Taoist priest surnamed Wu walked into the front yard of the ancestral hall and stopped before he could enter the incense room.

"Ah? Master Wu, what should you do?"

"I originally thought that you were just a little evil monster here, but now it seems that it is not simple. It seems that I can't do anything about your affairs."

The Taoist priest named Wu said this in a helpless tone, and then turned around and walked out of the ancestral hall.

After seeing Taoist Wu’s actions, Liao Ji hurriedly followed him and said as he walked, "Don’t, Master Wu, all the people in our town are pointing at you."

"It's useless to count on me. I can't care about your little things. This evil spirit is really too heavy. With my Taoist practice, if I really want to intervene, I will only end up spending my life in vain."

The two of them walked out of the ancestral hall one by one, and this scene was seen by Chen Jinquan, who was standing by the wall of the outer courtyard of the ancestral hall.

After chasing Taoist Wu, Liao Ji, who ran out of the ancestral hall, stepped out of the gate and rushed to the other party, reaching out and holding the Taoist's arm.

"Don't say that, Master Wu, within a radius of hundreds of miles, no one knows that you have boundless magic power. If you can't even control you, what should the people in our town do? You can do it and save us."

"I really don't care if I can do it."

Taoist Wu shook his head, pulled his hand out of Liao Ji's arm, then reached into the Qiankun bag beside him and touched it, taking out a small gray cloth bag.

"This is a part of the remuneration you asked me to pay. I can't settle the matter here now, so I'll give you the remuneration."

After taking out the gray cloth bag, Taoist Wu's face was full of reluctance. He held the wallet tightly, sighed softly, and handed it back to Liao Ji.

Chen Jin, who was standing aside, burst out laughing unconsciously when he saw this scene. It turned out that he still thought that this Taoist priest had a few tricks, but according to the current situation, he was probably just a charlatan who was greedy for money and feared trouble.

"Go and go, you little crazy guy is just laughing. Are you looking for a thirsty? Get away from me quickly."

Liao Ji, who was rejected by Taoist Wu, was angry at this time, so when Chen Jin laughed, he sent all the fire in his stomach to Chen Jin.

Chen Jin could only admit defeat for Liao Ji's curse. What can he do with his current small body? Besides, the current situation is to keep Taoist Wu.

Although he looked like a greedy charlatan, if you think about it carefully, from his reaction after entering the ancestral hall just now, he must be a little worthy of it when he can become famous within a radius of 100 miles of Guobei County.

Only by letting this person stay, there will be no big trouble in Weinan Town tonight. In this way, if the situation takes a turn for the worse, then he will have to leave this broken place in order to survive.

Thinking of these reasons, Chen Jin was not annoyed by Liao Ji's scolding but laughed.

"Uncle Liao, why are you so stingy? You invited the Taoist priest from all over the world and gave them a little bit of money. If it were you, would you be willing?"

From the look of Taoist Wu looking at Yinzi just now, Chen Jin concluded that he was a financial fanatic, so he said this now.

As soon as he said this, the other two looked at him one after another.

Among them, Wu Taoist Madam's face showed complex expressions of resentment and darkness. This is because the affairs in the town are really unfair, and if the people in the town really add a digit of reward, even if he can't deal with it, he will give it a try.

Liao Ji's face was filled with joy and confusion. The joy was because Liao Ji had just discovered that Taoist Wu had paid silver when he was rewarded, and the reluctance on his face showed on his face, so Taoist Wu did not take on this job, probably because he thought the reward was too low. The doubt was because Chen Jin was a little madman in his perception, but now the little madman's reaction was faster than himself.

After Chen Jin finished saying what he had just said, Liao Ji was stunned for a few moments, then he immediately showed an apologetic smile at Chen Jin, and then quickly handed the money bag Wu Daoshi back to him and stuffed it back into the other party's Qiankun bag.

"Master Wu, that child is right. I have no consideration for the remuneration. You can collect these remuneration first. After the matter is completed, how about adding twenty taels to the original thirty taels?"

When Liao Ji was giving up money, Taoist Wu also reported it, and he quickly reached out to refuse.

But after hearing that on the basis of thirty taels and adding twenty taels of reward, his movements stopped, fifty taels of silver, which was much greater than his expectations, so he hesitated.

Seeing the stopping movement of Taoist Wu and the hesitant expression on his face, Chen Jin waved to Liao Ji.

"Uncle Liao, it's time. Is money or life important? I'm adding more, add him to sixty taels.

If you don’t have 60 taels, just 70 taels. Anyway, you don’t pay the money alone. Why do you feel heartbroken? As long as you survive, will you always make money back in the future?"

Although Chen Jin's bad idea made Liao Ji feel very painful, the current situation is the only way.

It was almost dark. If Taoist Wu left at this time, after nightfall, something might happen to the town.

Thinking of this, Liao Ji walked to Taoist Wu and said, "Master Wu, we are all poor families, and we really don't have much spare money. You can pay you 60 taels of remuneration after the matter is done. Can you take over the matter in our town?"

Sixty taels, the reward was doubled directly from the original one. Taoist Wu, who had already been shaken by fifty taels of silver, now no longer cared about whether the matter in the town was big or small, and whether he had the ability to settle it.

"Give people money and eliminate disasters with others. Since you serve me so sincerely, I will use my best efforts to eliminate this disaster for you."
