Return to the soul

Chapter 40

At around nine o'clock in the morning, Tang Yuan came.He went to the parking lot of Binjiang Park before, drove the car that You Qingwei left there back to You's house, and brought You Qingwei's mobile phone in the car to You Qingwei.

Tang Yuan told You Qingwei: "Xia Yuanzhong died. When he died, he was locked up in the detention room in the basement of the Association. Among the guards was the second apprentice of Daoist Qingshan, named Ye Zong, who was a lay disciple; Taoist Wuxin arranged for him. It was Ah Hui, and Brother Gan and I took turns to stay on duty. When I was there, Ye Zong, and Ah Hui were all there. Xia Yuanzhong’s hands were handcuffed, and the handcuffs were fastened to the wall beside the bed with iron chains. I heard him shouting loudly. He yelled 'Chang San', and he slammed his head against the wall at a 45-degree angle with his temples against the wall, with such force that his bones were shattered, and he died on the spot." After a pause, he said: "Before this, we didn't feel any abnormalities. The monitoring, the alarms and defenses arranged around were not touched. For the time being, we suspected that Chang San had tampered with Xia Yuanzhong's body."

You Qingwei said softly: "Looking for a tiger's skin, I lost my life, and took the whole family into it." Seeing Tang Yuan's serious expression, she asked again: "Is there anything else?"

Tang Yuan nodded, and said: "Xiao Ci was attacked last night, and Xiao Ci's right arm was slightly injured. Zhuang Fuqing's family is fine. Zhuang Xiaosheng couldn't get through to you and Lu Wugui... Later, he called me Here, let me tell you, when I come back, I will go to see her with no return." He added: "It seems quite angry."

You Qing nodded slightly, and said, "Xiao Medai and I have been unable to get away for the past two days." She dialed Zhuang Xiaosheng's mobile phone number, handed it to Lu Wugui, and said, "Zhuang Xiaosheng was attacked last night, we should A little scared."

Lu Wugui said "Oh", and heard her elder sister Xiaosheng's voice on the phone: "You Qingwei..." The voice was several points higher than usual, and Lu Wugui shivered in fright, shouting: "You Qingwei, Sister Xiaosheng is looking for you." She found that You Qingwei was so unfair that she actually asked her to bear sister Xiaosheng's anger.

You Qing said silently: "I'm afraid she will scold me."

Lu Wugui thought about it, yes, sister Xiaosheng should scold her if she wants to scold her.She pursed her lips into a smile, and called sweetly, "Sister Xiaosheng."

"Erya?" Zhuang Xiaosheng's voice sounded slightly surprised, and then asked with concern: "Are you okay? Did You Qingwei trick you into taking risks again?"

Lu Wugui said: "It's not dangerous, but it's fun. That is, you know, an old Taoist priest took a group of people out to find someone, but they got lost. You Qingwei and I took people to look for them, and then, We walked all the way back. They walked slowly, and I could run a long distance in three or four hours. They walked for two days and two nights, and I was so anxious that I wanted to leave them with You Qingwei and Xia Yanxi I just left. But if you want to do what you promised, you have to wait for them to walk back slowly together."

Zhuang Xiaosheng asked, "Where are you now?"

Lu Wugui said: "In the Taoist temple of Wuxin Daoist, Ying Yinyang is here to perform rituals, and we will not go back until Yingyinyang finishes performing rituals."

Zhuang Xiaosheng was relieved to hear that Ying Yinyang was also there, and said, "Grandpa Ying is also here."

Lu Wugui said: "Yes! His two apprentices are also there. Sister Xiaosheng, are you okay? I heard that you were attacked last night?"

Zhuang Xiaosheng rubbed his forehead and said: "Don't mention it! Zuo Xiaoci said there are ghosts and demons, and they started to make trouble at eleven o'clock in the evening, like crazy, and cut his elbow with a sword last night. Dad Mom was still thinking about whether to take Zuo Xiaoci to the doctor this morning, saying that it is not good for a good girl to have hysteria every night." She said helplessly: "We can't see ghosts, but we have seen Huangpizijing , she said that there are demons, so it’s good to catch a mouse spirit and show us. You said that ghosts can become ghosts and demons when they cultivate, but can those animals become invisible if they become spirits?”

Lu Wugui: "..." She was choked hard by Sister Xiaosheng, and it took a while to say: "I'm very good. Sister Xiaosheng, do you know? You Qingwei made us senior members of their association The consultant, the official is older than the vice president that old man You used to be, but I just took office and I look young, so they don't accept me."

Zhuang Xiaosheng: "..."

Lu Wugui: "Sister Xiaosheng, why don't you speak?"

You Qingwei and Tang Yuan were a little dazed as they watched Zhuang Xiaosheng talking on the phone with Zhuang Xiaosheng on the phone.

After a while, Tang Yuan said to You Qingwei: "I think you should call her another name." Is this still called "boring"?Don't talk too much!

Lu Wugui said: "Oh, by the way, our association has recently caught a female murderer on the wanted list. She is a charmer, she is so beautiful, and she is looking for you..." "Got it, Sui Zijun! "Before she finished speaking, she heard Zhuang Xiaosheng say something angrily.

She said "ah" and said, "You know?"

Zhuang Xiaosheng said: "I hear this name eighty times a day. Zuo Xiaoci is still sitting on the sofa in my office because of this person. I'm busy first, and I will drag Zuo Xiaoci to the hospital for a tetanus later."

Near noon, Ying Yinyang and his disciples finally finished the ceremony.The three of them were exhausted, so they ate something, took a shower, borrowed Daoist Wuxin's guest room, and fell asleep.

Tang Yuan wrapped Xia Yanxi in the incense talisman that You Qingwei had wrapped before, carried her back to the car, and took Xia Yanxi back to You's house.

You Qingwei took Lu Wugui to Tingyulou.

It was already past two o'clock in the afternoon when the two of them arrived at Tingyu Tower. You Qingwei went to the restaurant to have lunch first, and then moved to the teahouse behind.

The bamboo curtains of the teahouse were lowered, so that the inside could not be seen from the outside.

In the yard outside the door, many people gathered in twos and threes, and they seemed to be the attendants of those old men, as if they were holding a meeting.

She led Lu Wugui through the crowd, and saw that the door was guarded by several men in black tunic suits.She saw sharply that the word "Dao" in cursive script was embroidered with dark patterns on the left front of their clothes, and the word "Dao" was flying like a dragon and flying like a phoenix, and it was particularly strong.

Daozitang, the law enforcement team trained within the association, is led by Daoist Qingshan and Wuxin.

The association is a self-organized organization, and its discipline is not strong at ordinary times. If there is any problem, the big guys will always call together to solve it.For a long time, Daozitang's greatest role was to occasionally provide some news clues, and it was the first time that it appeared in front of people with such a big fanfare, at least as far as You Qingwei knew.She was very surprised when she saw the people from Dao Zitang appearing suddenly.

Seeing Lu Wugui and You Qingwei, the gatekeeper opened the door and made a "please" gesture.

Only then did You Qingwei slowly walk into the teahouse holding the folding fan.

After she entered, she saw that the atmosphere in the teahouse was very solemn, and two people were missing, Vice President Xia and Mr. Li.

Old Man Bai's face was ashen. He was holding the crutch tightly, and the muscles on the back of his hand were all bulging.

Old man Yan's face was not very good-looking either.

Mr. Dong Lai rested his chin, thoughtful, and when he saw You Qingwei and Lu Wugui approaching, he nodded towards the two reserved positions.

When President Yan saw You Qingwei coming, he said, "Qingwei is here." His expression softened a little.

You Qingwei greeted everyone, then pulled Lu Wugui and turned around and walked towards the reserved places for them.She saw that her seat was side by side with the homeless one, and several assistants were still sitting next to her.She didn't dare to sit down and asked, "Is this... a mistake?"

President Yan raised his hand to signal You Qingwei to sit down, and said, "That's right, sit down, I have something to tell you."

When You Qingwei saw that Mr. Yan said he was right, he sat down calmly, and said in his heart, "Did you get promoted for me this night?"

Chairman Yan said: "Mr. Xia has resigned from the position of vice-chairman and is currently being investigated by the association. It is inappropriate to have two vacancies for the position of vice-chairman right now. If you have the ability to assume the position of vice president, you are officially appointed as vice president to take over the previous position of vice president You. As for the election of vice president, it will be postponed for the time being."

There are three vice presidents, Daoist Qingshan is in charge of the association's law enforcement team, Mr. Xia is in charge of the association's funds and supplies, and her grandfather is in charge of personnel scheduling.

For example, if something happened and someone needs to be sent to deal with it, Daoist Qingshan or Mr. Donglai will notify her grandfather, and her grandfather will go to the contact person, and then get the relevant materials needed for the work from Mr. Xia.

If this incident didn't happen, You Qingwei would be happy to support her grandfather's class, after all, this is quite a huge network of contacts.

But recently, such a big event happened to the association, and she is not very familiar with her grandfather's connections, and she can't even recognize all the people in each family. Come out to pick up this stall at this time, in case she catches Sui Zijun, Ghost King Taisui or something , where does she go to find staff?

To be honest, she felt that there was a pit.

Then again, if there is no trick, they can let her take the position of vice president so easily?

If it was before the ghost city, everything would be easy to talk about.After the ghost city incident, she had to think carefully.The Xia family has been hollowed out, the Bai family and the Li family are suspected, and it's hard to say if there is anything else, maybe the current association has become a sieve.She was appointed in a critical situation, and she will have important tasks for her as soon as she takes office.

After the ghost market incident, the strength of each family has been greatly reduced.Her family's strength is the best preserved. Even if they stand on their own hills at this time, they still have capital.However, Chang San could even control Xia Yuanzhong's life and death, so far there is no trace of him. Maybe it is possible to hide in the association under the lights.She relies on the big tree of the association, so it is convenient for her to do things.Although it is quiet to set up your own family, it is much less convenient in case of trouble, and it is not very beneficial to find out the mastermind behind the scenes.Even if she is no longer in the association, the opponent is very likely to use the association to deal with her.

You Qing pondered for a while, choosing the lesser of two evils, even if he knew that picking up the vice president at this moment was a hot potato, he could only accept it with a smile.She smiled lightly and said: "Thanks to everyone's respect, then I'd rather be respectful than obedient." She didn't even bother to refuse.She guessed that the big guy didn't have the time to be polite to her now.Seeing the expressions on the faces of these people present, she almost lost her temper.
