Chapter 120: The Fat Man of the Pharmacy King
At this moment, a few people ordered by Old Man Lu had already walked out, and at the signal of Old Man Ge, several people quickly lifted the body into the courtyard, and a few others ran outside the door to evacuate the crowd and closed the gate. In this way, after a long while, the situation can be controlled, and now the reputation of the Ge family in Nancheng is only mixed, and the only thing that makes the Ge family stand tall is the little bit of heritage accumulated over a hundred years.
The corpse was placed in the courtyard, and Old Man Ge immediately rolled up his sleeves, took out a silver needle and probed the corpse, and then said to the middle-aged woman, "Can you untie the corpse's shirt?" ”
When the middle-aged woman heard this, she immediately nodded and reached out to untie the corpse's shirt. When we saw the stomach of the corpse, we couldn't help but be shocked...... The belly of the corpse was deeply sunken, as if everything in it had been hollowed out, and the old man Ge immediately pinched his two fingers and probed into the stomach of the corpse, and then put away his hand, only to see that the places he pressed with his fingers were all showing blue and black marks.
Seeing this, Old Man Ge was no longer ready to continue the inspection, but waved his hand to the middle-aged woman and the master, and motioned for us to go to the living room to talk.
When she came to the living room, the middle-aged woman choked up and asked, "Master Ge, ...... the man in my family?"
"Don't be in a hurry." Old Man Ge comforted: "Tell me first, has anything strange happened in your family recently?" For example, some strange things, cattle and sheep suddenly died, chickens and ducks are similar, but can these evil things happen? ”
The middle-aged woman was suddenly stopped by the old man Ge, hesitated, the middle-aged woman immediately shook her head, and said: "This situation is really no, our livestock are all fine, and my old man is in good health on weekdays, but he accidentally cut his foot a few days ago, and he didn't treat it well, and the wound was a little swollen at the end, and the body also caused fever, so I thought about buying some antipyretic medicine and eating it." How do you know that you can eat dead people with two pills......"
When Old Man Ge heard this, he immediately explained: "Your man didn't die by taking medicine, because all the internal organs in his stomach were emptied!" ”
"Huh?" It wasn't just the middle-aged woman who was shocked to hear this, but even I was surprised to open my mouth wide. The middle-aged woman was completely dumbfounded, she looked at Old Man Ge blankly, and asked, "Ge ...... Master Ge, you, what you said is true? My old man's internal organs are gone? W-how is this possible? How can a person live without internal organs? But he talked to me well last night, why did he lose his internal organs today, could it be that there was something goblin in my house?! ”
Master suddenly spoke: "The internal organs of the corpse have been hollowed out, but there is no trace to be seen from the outside, and there is no place where the skin has been bitten or cut. At least something like a human or a beast can't do, and it doesn't make sense to take the internal organs from the body, unless you ...... Unless it's something else! ”
"Hmm." Old Man Ge nodded slightly, and said with a cautious face: "But if it is said that demonic things are evil...... Distant mountains, it seems that there are no evil things in the world that specialize in eating human internal organs? Have you ever encountered this situation after so many years? ”
Master frowned, pondered for a moment, and then said, "I haven't encountered it, but I've heard of several similar evils, but I have to see the true body of that evil to be sure. Another point worth noting is that the Ge family's pharmacy has had frequent accidents recently, and everyone who comes to the Ge family to buy medicine, almost without exception, there are accidents, the clue seems to be broken, in fact, 'broken' is the clue, whether it is evil or not, the problem is definitely not in these people's homes, but in the pharmacy, so let's go, Brother Ge let me go to the pharmacy to have a look, I hope to find something! ”
"Good!" Old Man Ge agreed, and then said to the middle-aged woman: "The death of your man, in the final analysis, is also because of my Ge family, so let's do it, you first take your man's body home, and the cost of burying everything will be paid by my Ge family, and I will ask Uncle Lu to take you 500 yuan as a settlement fee, do you think it is appropriate to arrange this for the time being?" ”
When the middle-aged woman heard this, she immediately nodded gratefully: "Master Ge is really kind-hearted, as long as I can bury the men in my family with dignity, as for the five hundred yuan settlement fee, it is too much, as long as there is a little enough for us to supplement the family, besides, our family still has a few acres of land, and there is always something to eat." ”
Old Man Ge sighed lightly: "You are old and young, and there is no man, it must be difficult for the family to live, five hundred yuan is not much, it can be regarded as a little bit of the Ge family." ”
After being polite, Old Man Ge instructed Old Man Lu to handle the matter well, and told the middle-aged woman that once the cause of her husband's death was found, he would definitely inform her. In this way, the middle-aged woman thanked her, and followed the old man Lu and a few men out of Gefu with the corpse. Although this matter is dealt with like this, the things that cruelly took the lives of the dead still have to be found. When I examined the corpse just now, I also saw that there was indeed no wound on the top and bottom of the corpse, even if there were insects entering his body, I am afraid that these few hours of work would not be able to endure to eat all the internal organs of a person, this matter is very strange!
But speaking of which, Old Man Ge is really kind-hearted, and five hundred yuan is a lot of money nowadays. Even if it is to build an ordinary house, I am afraid it will not cost two or three hundred yuan, five hundred yuan, enough for the middle-aged woman's family to spend a few years.
I thought about it for a moment and asked Master, "Master, why don't we go to the deceased's house first to see what is going on?" ”
The master shook his head and said with a serious face: "There are no two causes of this matter, it can only be the Ge family's pharmacy, judging from the repeated disasters of the Ge family, I am afraid that behind this series of disasters, there is a person behind the scenes, and its intention is very obvious." It is nothing more than the collapse of the Ge family, first letting Ge Tianqi do evil outside, damaging the reputation of the Ge family, and then confusing the only son of the Ge family with evil methods, intending to cut off the incense inheritance of the Ge family, and finally attacking the Ge family's pharmacy, which can not only corrupt the business of the Ge family, but also let the golden sign of the Ge family's Ge divine doctor be crushed step by step in the hearts of the people. This can be called an ambush on all sides, endlessly......"
Old Man Ge said angrily: "Could it be the Ai family?" Everyone knows that our Ge family and the Ai family have checked and balanced each other over the years, and their family influence is comparable, if our Ge family is destroyed, the biggest beneficiary is nothing more than the Ai family! ”
The master thought for a while and asked Old Man Ge, "Brother Ge, what do you think?" ”
Old Man Ge hesitated for a moment and sighed lightly: "But although the Ai family has been fighting with our Ge family in all aspects, it is all done on the bright side, and the old man Ai of the Ai family is also a bright and upright person, with his proud character, he should disdain to do this kind of thing." But if it weren't for the Ai family...... Could it be Gu Tan, who recently lived in Ai's house to help him? Yuanshan, Gu Tan is also a member of your Maoshan faction after all, I don't dare to say more about this......"
"Although these tricks are powerful and interlocking, I don't think it will be Gu Tan's doing." The master walked slowly to the door of the living room with his hands behind his back, and then said lightly: "Gu Tan has an arrogant temperament, and he has always ignored mundane things, for these things, he should not be able to do them, and if Gu Tan does it, his method is not this kind of hidden needle, but wide open and closed, which is frightening." But if Gu Tan is excluded, these things are difficult to explain clearly, because Ge Tianqi is very powerful in evil arts, Ergou has almost no power to parry, and he is deeply trapped in the spirit void dream, plus the medicinal materials sold by the pharmacy have the strange thing of eating human internal organs. These things are not something that ordinary warlocks and the like can do, and the spirit dream realm alone shows that the person behind the scenes is extraordinary! ”
Old Man Ge was stunned, and then said, "Who do you think it will be in the distant mountains?" ”
The master also shook his head at a loss, and after a long time, he spoke: "There are a lot of talented people in the world, but most of them don't like to show their heads, or live in seclusion in the downtown area, or hide in the mountains. But according to Brother Ge's words just now, the Ai family doesn't need such help, so ...... That can only mean that the person behind the scenes has other plans! ”
"Something else?" Old Man Ge frowned, and hurriedly asked, "Yuanshan, you go on." ”
Master sighed lightly: "It's useless to say anything now, the only key person is gone, and this person who has something to do with everything is Ge Tianqi, plus he has a strange evil art, it can be seen that if you find him, you can find the person behind the scenes." Brother Ge, you must take precautions against Ge Tianqi recently, once he appears, it means that the person behind the scenes will inevitably show his feet! ”
Old Man Ge lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and then said, "I will not be negligent about this, so do you still want to go to the pharmacy now?" ”
"Not bad." The master nodded and said, "The pharmacy must be visited, who is in charge of the major pharmacy stores of the Ge family now?" ”
When the old man Ge heard this, he immediately said: "Now our Ge family has a total of six pharmacies in Nancheng, at first Tianqi was in charge of three along the river, and the other three in the city were the old buddy of the Ge family, Wang Fatzi, who was in charge, but now that Tianqi beast is missing, all the affairs of the pharmacy are also supported by Wang Fatzi." When are you going to go to the distant mountains? I will ask Uncle Lu to take you there, and then pass on my words, and let Wang Fatzi fully cooperate with you to find out the cause of the disaster in the pharmacy! ”
After listening to Old Man Ge's words, the master left and walked out of the living room, and said, "Let's go now, Ergou, let's go!" ”
