I will gently remove the jade pendant, which is different from the imagination. Although it is a little cool to start with, it is not particularly different. Before I could observe carefully, old lady Lei had already told several people in black to deal with the body quickly, so as not to leave any future trouble

Her tone was a little anxious, as if leaving the body would cause more disaster.

I see that although she is old, she is not in a mess when she comes across an emergency. She is even more vigorous in handling it. I can't help admiring her. When she left the room with old lady Lei, she said with a sad face, "three lives have been killed in one month. I'm afraid it's hard to block the news. If it goes on like this, there must be a big mess." She looked at me and said seriously, "Mr. Zhang, it's up to you to solve this problem in the shortest time."

I handed the jade plate to her: "have you seen this?"

Old lady Lei is rich all her life. What treasure hasn't she seen? Naturally, I don't care about the things taken from the maid. I just glanced at them casually, but their eyes changed in a moment. Some people asked incredulously, "this How is it here? "

That look and appearance clearly recognize this jade pendant.

"What's the matter?" I asked in a hurry

It seems that old lady Lei hasn't calmed down: "this is the jade pendant that my second daughter-in-law liked very much before she died, but it has been broken. How can it..."

Is this the jade pendant that Lei's second youngest grandmother bought at the auction house?

I took the jade pendant and looked at it carefully by moonlight for a while, and found that there were indeed several fine marks on it, like something stuck together after it broke.

Old lady Lei was not relieved from her shock: "what's the matter? Is it as like as two peas or two pieces of jade? She seemed to respond slowly: "so many strange things happened at home, all related to this jade plate?"

It's obviously hard for her to imagine that there are so many lives in her family, and the founder is a jade pendant.

Because of the accident, old lady Lei had no idea, so I had to comfort her a few words and promise to solve it as soon as possible within my own ability. Old lady Lei left with a gloomy face. I took the jade pendant and went back to the room, only to find that there were many cell phones on the bedside table that had not been answered.

All the phone calls came from the first day of junior high school. It was a little late. When I was hesitant to call him back, he called again.

I picked it up in a hurry and listened to him coldly: "my business here has been cleaned up. I bought a ticket for tonight, and I will arrive in Xi'an early tomorrow morning to join you. How about your side?"

I told him the clues I found at Lei's house in the original. At the beginning of the day, I was silent for a moment: "don't worry. When I arrive, we will deal with them together."

I hum twice, the first time and uneasy to explain a few words to me, this just hung up the phone.

After this toss, I was not sleepy, simply holding the jade pendant in the light to study. The jade pendant is fan-shaped, without any pattern or pattern. Maybe it has been polished for a long time. In the quality of jade pendant, it is not a very rare precious jade, and it has clear lines and serious damage. When it is exposed to the light, it will be found that the cracks inside show a gorgeous red color.

Is it the thing that causes so much trouble in Lei's house?

But it's ordinary, not even a little Yin Qi fluctuation. According to my experience in dealing with Yin things for many years, it really can't be more ordinary.

After studying for a long time, I didn't get any results. I was really tired and finally fell into bed. The next day I was awakened by the sound of thunder and rain. The window was dark, thunder and lightning flashed, and huge raindrops were splashing on the glass windows. I rubbed my eyes, picked up my mobile phone and looked at the time. It was nine o'clock in the morning. On the first day of the new year, I also sent a text message to inform me that because of the weather, Xi'an airport was closed and his plane was late. At the moment, he was waiting for a notice at an airport thousands of miles away.

I threw my cell phone aside, but suddenly it felt like something was missing.

I think about it carefully, and suddenly I was surprised that the jade pendant I had been studying last night was missing? I jumped out of bed in a hurry and searched carefully, but I still couldn't find its shadow.

When I opened the door, Xiaomei heard the noise and hurriedly came over: "Mr. Zhang, you wake up."

"Xiaomei, did anyone come to my room last night?" I thought someone came into the room and took the jade pendant while I was asleep.

Xiaomei shakes her head in a daze: "no......"

So the jade pendant disappeared?

Xiaomei saw my face was ugly and asked in a panic, "Mr. Zhang, are you ok?"

I shook my head and tried to look normal: "it's OK."

Xiaomei then smiled: "the old lady called the family back, all in the living room. She also told me to ask you to come over when you wake up. "

It seems that what happened last night stimulated old lady Lei. She called the whole family to have something important to tell.

I changed my clothes and followed Xiaomei to the living room. There was no sound in the spacious living room. Several figures were shrouded in the dark. The lightning suddenly split. The white light suddenly reflected on everyone's uneasy face. It was like a curse coming, which made several people shiver.Seeing me coming in, old lady Lei got up to meet him and introduced him to the three people in the room: "this is Mr. Zhang, a friend of the Taoist priest of Jiugong Mountain."

With the introduction of old lady Lei, my eyes also fell on three people with different looks in the living room.

There was a middle-aged woman sitting on the sofa. She looked serious and reserved, looking very dull. And sitting opposite her was a young girl, her eyes wide open, as if she didn't understand what had happened to make the atmosphere so strange? By the fireplace stood a man in his twenties, frowning, his eyes full of suspicion.

According to the clues collected before, I have probably guessed the identity of these three people without the introduction of old lady Lei.

The middle-aged woman is Mrs. Lei's eldest daughter-in-law. After her husband died in a car accident, she lived to this day without sorrow or joy. The young man beside the fireplace is her son, who was sent abroad by Mrs. Lei when she was a child. The young girl is her grandson's girlfriend, because when she first arrived, she still had no idea about the situation.

Mrs. Lei's introduction soon confirmed my opinion, and she continued: "it's not peaceful at home recently. Zhe, I've asked someone to book today's air ticket. You can go back to England right away!"
