The rich man Ma paused and continued, "I was afraid that he would not agree, so I didn't even mention the money. Unexpectedly, the Heavenly Master was really unique. I didn't offer a penny, but she agreed happily after hearing what I said. In this way, he rushed over early this morning and has arrived at my Chunhua Tower. He said that there was only one night and he would return to the capital early tomorrow morning, so that the emperor would not be able to summon him to be not in Juxian Tower. Therefore, the courtesan competition was scheduled to be held tonight. I would like to invite the governor Feng, Master Lu, and Master Randeng to participate. This time it was different from the previous vote. This time, it was the final decision of the three of you. As for the rituals, it was all up to the Lord."

Lu Jinping nodded and said, "It's great. You've already succeeded more than half of the rest. I'll leave the rest to me. Of course, I heard that this celestial master has a weird personality. It's really hard to say whether he can get the clues I need from him and help you convince him to do rituals. But planning is based on people and things are based on heaven. How can you know if you don't try?"

"The Lord is very capable, and it will definitely work. Tonight, the villain will welcome the Lord in Chunhua Tower."

The last time I chose the courtesan, I went with me. This time Lu Jinping certainly wanted to ask her to go with me. Moreover, there was something very important tonight. Such a clever little girl was helping out for ideas, which might be necessary at the critical moment. So Lu Jinping immediately sent someone to invite Yunzi to tell the matter. Of course, Yunzi nodded happily and agreed, immediately changed into men's clothes, and in the evening, he followed Lu Jinping and Ye Qingqing to Chunhua Tower.

In order to regain the momentum and dilute people's bad impression of the strange and strange case of Chunhualou these days, Ma Qianzhu has invested in this time and made some preparations. He put on lights and drew the golden bricks on the ground again with water. The washing was shining brightly and looked even more magnificent.

However, the shadows gathered in people's hearts by the strange cases of Chunhualou have not yet dissipated, so not many guests agreed to come. The rich man Ma was very anxious and came to invite him one by one in person. These people heard that the Tianshi from the capital was coming, and that the governor Feng and the lord Lu were both going to participate. Then they agreed to come and support him.

The rich man Ma did not mention the matter of doing rituals with Ran Dengtian. He was afraid that if he talked about these things first, Master Zhang would not come, so he first asked him to choose a courtesan. When this matter is over, he would mention the matter of doing rituals while he is happy. If this matter can be accomplished, it will not have much impact, because he asked Master Ran Dengtian to come. In fact, the most important thing was to help Lu Jinping find out the strangeness of this case. He also felt that the case was more like a human being, not a ghost.

After Lu Jinping and Governor Feng arrived at Chunhua Tower, they arrived at the backyard and met the Landeng Tianshi first.

Governor Feng had met the Tianshi. He was familiar with him. When he met, he greeted him intimately. This was the first time Lu Jinping met.

Lu Jinping saw that the teacher and student of Lan Dengtian were white and fat, and it seemed that the food in Chunhualou was very good, and he was full of oil. He was wearing a Taoist robe and holding a whisk in his hand. Lu Jinping stepped forward and bowed to salute, but he just nodded slightly, and even looked at him.

The governor Feng next to him kept praising Lu Jinping's outstanding talent in solving cases, but before the governor Feng finished speaking, Master Randeng snorted softly and turned to the rich man Ma beside him, saying, "Didn't you say you want to choose a courtesan? When will it start? This master is not here to chat. Just do the important business as soon as possible. After finishing my work, I will rush back to Juxianlou, otherwise the emperor will summon me. If you don't see me, you will be anxious. Besides, I can't delay my practice of Taoism for a moment. In order to come to your Chunhualou Tower to support you, it has delayed a lot of my practice time."

The rich man Ma agreed one after another, saying that this was the beginning, and at the same time he looked at Lu Jinping to see if he had anything else he needed to tell the Tianshi alone.

Lu Jinping could not have imagined that the Heavenly Master was so arrogant, and even didn't take people seriously, so he frowned unconsciously. If this was the case, it would be a matter of time to find clues from him.

So, Lu Jinping just smiled at the rich man Ma, nodded slightly and indicated that he could start. The rich man Ma then smiled apologetically and quickly went out to make arrangements.

Then Master Randeng Tian looked at the governor Feng and said slowly: "I won't leave two of you for now. Before starting, there is still some time. I need to practice Taoism, so let's do it."

When Governor Feng heard that he issued the order to expel guests directly, he was a little embarrassed and quickly laughed and nodded in agreement. Although this kind of celestial master had no official rank, he was a noble person in the eyes of the emperor. He was more awesome than a person with official rank, so he had no choice but to treat him with courtesy. So Governor Feng said goodbye to Lu Jinping and left the luxurious courtyard.

When he arrived outside the courtyard, Governor Feng smiled with a self-deprecating smile and said, "All those who are capable have weird personalities. But this celestial master is a bit weird. Sir, don't care. In my eyes, your ability is better than him."

"The governor has been awarded too much. She is a celestial master, so she naturally has the capital to be proud of." Speaking of this, Lu Jinping looked back at the courtyard where the door was closed, with a smile on his lips, and raised the volume intentionally or unintentionally and said, "I know some Taoism. If I have the chance, I really want to discuss with this celestial master."

The governor Feng just now just comforted Lu Jinping a few words so that he would not be too frustrated. Unexpectedly, he said such a sentence like a challenge. The courtyard is not big, and I am afraid that people inside can hear what they say outside, so I quickly winked at him. I thought he was young and energetic and couldn't help but challenge him. It would be better to stay away from the Heavenly Master of Juxianlou.

There was no movement in the courtyard, as if no one heard it. Seeing that the governor Feng winked at him, Lu Jinping smiled and followed the governor Feng and the rich man Ma to the front yard with his hands behind his back.

With the sound of gongs and drums, the second courtesan competition in Chunhualou finally began.

In order to attract more people to watch, the main thing is to let Master Lan Deng show his face. The rich man Ma arranged this event in the front yard hall, and it was open to the public for free, so anyone could go in and watch. In this way, many idle men in the city came to watch the fun, and many poor people never had the money to enter such high-end Qin Buildings. Now that they finally had a rare opportunity, they all came to see it. So, the front yard hall was full.

Of course, in order to ensure the safety of the Tianshi, Governor Feng had mobilized the yamen to send out all his troops and set up a cordon to separate the courtesan constituency from the VIPs from other bystanders. These ordinary spectators could only watch from a distance and could not cross the cordon.

The Heavenly Master really likes to show off. He is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is most willing to do in front of so many people. Therefore, after coming in, he waved to the audience with a smile on his face. Those people had long known that a Heavenly Master with a profound Taoism had been invited from the capital, and they all looked at him with respect and were talking quarrels.

When Master Randeng went to the main seat in front of the stage, he sat down. When Master Feng sat down, Master Randeng nodded. When Lu Jinping sat down, he seemed not to see it. He just turned his head and said to the rich man Ma who was sitting behind him: "How many women do you have in total participating in tonight's courtesan competition?"

“Thirty in total.”

The governor Feng, who was standing beside him, was stunned for a moment, turned his head and looked at the rich man Ma and said, "Aren't there twenty-five people before? One died and one crazy, and there should be twenty-three people."

The rich man Ma hurriedly smiled and said, "I bought seven girls from the capital with a lot of money, each of which is beautiful and beautiful..."

Master Randeng was a little dissatisfied and turned his head to look at the rich man Ma and said, "Die? Crazy? What's going on?"

Governor Feng hurriedly said: "Judge Lu is responsible for the investigation of the case, and he also said that he would like to ask Jury Lu to talk about it."

Lu Jinping said slowly: "The Chunhua Tower held a selection of a courtesan deity half a month ago. The selected courtesan deity was burned into coke by a bizarre fire that night. The entire process of burning was only one meal. The murderer was able to burn the body to ashes in such a short time. It was really amazing. Strangely, there were flammable materials such as wood at the scene where the two people were burned, but they did not burn in the fire, which was really weird."

Master Randeng raised his thick eyebrows and snorted coldly: "Nonsense! Who in this world has better fire control skills than me?"

Feng was afraid that Lu Jinping would say something that angered the Heavenly Master, so he quickly snatched the conversation and said, "That's right, that's right, the Lantern Heavenly Master is famous in the world and no one can surpass it. The murderer in this case must have used the evil ways. Mr. Lu was responsible for the case to solve the case and has been arresting the real murderer, and he will be arrested soon."

Master Randeng looked at Lu Jinping with a squinted look and said, "It seems that you still have some means to solve the case?"

Lu Jinping smiled faintly and said, "It's okay."

"I heard that you can do the Taoist Dharma, so let me show you my Tianshi look at it."

"My Taoism is used to solve cases, not to be a wise man."

The fat face of the Lan Deng Tianshi suddenly became cold. Just as he was about to speak, the ** on the stage had already pulled the duck's voice and announced the start of the courtesan match, and then he shut up.

As always, it is a talent show. Each person is limited to select one of the most proud talents to show on stage. The first one is the original twenty-three, and the rich man Ma deliberately interspersed the seven newly bought women among them.

Yufeng was arranged to appear in the last three-last appearance as Tanhua in the last session, which was her privilege. However, the two who appeared in the last two were the finale beauty in the eyes of the rich man Ma.

The second-to-last girl who appeared has very good skin, white and red, and is as sensual as a peach.

The Lan Deng Tianshi in the audience had seen the women's acting career before, but he just smiled and nodded. When the last two women came out, his eyes began to shine. He couldn't help but breathe.

Lu Jinping was also very impressed. He didn't expect that this rich man could find such beautiful colors. He was really capable.
