Chapter 57 The Secret of the Bronze Key

The night is dark and the wind is high, and the forest is deep and the grass is dense.

A little bonfire faintly in the deep dense forest. From a distance, it looked like a ghost fire swaying and dancing.

A figure that looked like a ghost was sitting in a place facing the fire.

Suddenly, the fire swayed violently, and the thing that looked like a ghost and a human slowly opened its eyes. The sockets were pitch black without a single white.

"Since you are here, what are you doing?"

"It's an extraordinary time now, so it's better not to meet us." A ghost-like voice echoed in the ink-like night.

"Or long story short, what's the matter?"

"The death of Mr. Liang Qi, I will find a way to prevent the town department from investigating it."

"Do you think it's possible? If someone else wants to die, he will die. That's the only son of Liang Qihan, the leader of the Southern Region, and the Zhendi Department will give Liang Qihan an explanation no matter what."

"I'm just conveying the order from the top, not discussing with you."

"Then you can also reply to what I said. This matter is impossible!"

"Do you want to die?"

The mysterious man's cold voice sounded, and in an instant, the surrounding temperature dropped sharply.

After being silent for a long time, the person who never appeared sighed, "You have to tell me what's going on, right? Why did the Prayer of the Pure Land Pill appear? Why did you make such a big mistake?"

"We didn't make it."

"There is really another person who deserves life? But... haven't Liang Qi been your VIP always?"

"This batch of Pilgrimage Death Pill was sold to Bailang by a flying thief named Ma Wu. Bailang was greedy for hundreds of taels of silver, collected this batch of pills and mixed it into our Pilgrimage Death, and happened to be bought by Liang Qi's short-lived ghost."

"What's going on with the Pilgrimage Pill in Gui Huazi's hand?"

"Ghost Painting is not our guest."

"So the sellers behind the ghost paintings are... the group of people who are rushing to die?"

"Yes, but unfortunately Gui Huazi died, leaving no useful clues, and we did not find suspicious targets. Otherwise, I would make him regret living in the world."

"Since that's the case, it's better to let the town department change the investigation direction than to ask the town department to stop the investigation. Since the Jile of Bliss Death Pill is not yours, strip the White Wolf from the Boshui Gang and make evidence that the White Wolf secretly colluded with that force. The personal behavior of selling Jile Pill has nothing to do with the Boshui Gang.

No matter how the town department investigates or what it finds, you can say that this was a secret collusion between the White Wolf and the Boshui Gang without hiding it."

"I can help you reply to the above."

"Since that's the case, I'm leaving."

"Wait!" As he said that, the man gently took out a first-rate pill from his arms, "the antidote to Yijing Bone-Crafting Pill."

"Swoosh--"

A steel wire poked out from the dark night and instantly wrapped around the elixir and porcelain bottle.

The bottle of pill in the hands of the cold and mysterious man disappeared.

Entertainment in this era was extremely scarce. Su Mu traveled through time for three years and only knew three things: listening to opera, taking a bath and walking around the kiln.

Among them, taking a bath is the most economical and affordable. You can spend an hour comfortably in the bathhouse for only five cents. But this is a luxury for ordinary people.

I enjoy it twice every year during the Chinese New Year and during my birthday.

Hongyun Bathhouse is the only place where Gui Huazi's son would go out.

Su Mu changed into casual clothes and took Jiang Jiangping and Yu Jie to Hongyun Bathhouse.

"Three masters, are you taking a bath?" the waiter asked with a smile on his face.

"Barring, come here to take a bath, can you please come here?" Jiang Jiangping was already in the society and cursed skillfully.

"Yes, yes! Looking at the three masters, we are not just taking a bath here." The waiter raised his eyebrows, "I'll take the three masters in to change clothes."

"Waiter, I heard that there is a celebrity who is also a regular visitor to you? What's the name... Ghost or something..." Su Mu asked casually as he walked the eight-character steps.

"Is this guy talking about ghost paintings?"

“Yes!”

"That master is our old customer. I heard that he is older than the villain's when taking a bath here. What a pity..."

"What a pity?"

"Don't you know that Gui Huazi is dead?"

"I haven't heard of this."

"Hey, I'll never hit ghosts when I walk on the night road? He has painted monsters and monsters all his life, but in the end he was plagued by ghosts and died suddenly."

"That's a pity. I heard that this person is a weird person."

"No, I have never seen such a strange person in my life. Master, I told you that I have been here for five years. He will come to take a bath every few days, but I haven't seen him talk to others."

"Is he a mute?"

"I'm not this, I've talked to him. I'll learn it for you. Are you here?

Have you washed it?

My God, there are 50 quotas in total.

Give!"

"Hehe..." Looking at the vivid appearance of the second student, Su Mu laughed.

"If I said ten words to him, he would reply to me. If I hadn't known that he had such a temper, I would have wanted to kick him. I looked down on others too much."

While speaking, he took Su Mu to the locker room, and the waiter took out an iron key from his arms.

But in an instant, Su Mu's face changed drastically.

"Woman, your key is quite exquisite."

"Exquisite? Isn't this an ordinary key?" The waiter looked suspicious.

At this moment, Su Mu's mind was quickly surging.

When Ma Wu stole the Jile Pill that day, he also stole a copper key. He put it in a dark grid with the Jile Pill. For Gui Huazi, it should be something as secret and important as the Jile Pill.

But Su Mu never knew what the copper key was for, and even his two sons didn't know.

But now, the little key in Xiaoer's hand is very similar to the copper key.

"Waiter, I saw my friend had a copper key, which is very similar to yours. The key is small and exquisite, just like jewelry..."

"Hahaha..." The waiter smiled immediately, "Master, the copper key you mentioned may be mine."

"Oh? Can you bring your keys back?"

"Master, if you are interested, open a private wardrobe for me?" The waiter suddenly became excited, "Master, think about it, the staff in the bathhouse are noisy, and you use the wardrobe.

If someone has a lice on his body and keeps it in the wardrobe, and you will be able to pass it to you when you put the clothes in. If you set up a private cabinet, you can only use this cabinet. It’s clean and safe, how good?”

"You mean, is the key to a private cabinet a copper key?"

"yes!"

In an instant, Su Mu's pupils suddenly contracted, and a light suddenly appeared in his mind. He suddenly guessed how the Jile Pill was traded.

"Waiter, how many people are you using this kind of private cabinet?"

"There are more, so many people have gone! There are three mature customers who have handled it, and it only costs 500 cents a year. If you spend a balance, it will cost less than two cents a day, which is cost-effective."

"Let's go!" Su Mu said lightly.

"Okay!" As soon as the waiter heard this, his eyes immediately shone.

When he arrived at the front desk, the waiter took out a copper key and a license plate from the cabinet. Su Mu swept the copper key, and it was indeed the kind of key left by Gui Huazi. The difference is that Xiao Er's hand is brand new.

"Master, all of them are..."
