The fat ghost walked towards the golden light in a daze, and then the ghost shadow twisted and fell into the soul-inducing lamp.

When Zhao Xing saw this, he didn't stop him. This ghost fortune was too far away, and if he wanted to ask about the whereabouts of the wealth, he would have to help the fat ghost fulfill his wish.

It's too troublesome. Zhao Xinglai is trying to make some side money, and his main focus is to get rich instantly. If there are too many twists and turns, then he might as well go back to farming.

In addition, this also involves the assessment of temple personnel. Thinking from his perspective, he is not willing to have outsiders interfere. There is no need to offend others for a small amount of money.

"There's no rush, there are plenty of opportunities." Zhao Xing quickly returned to the stall without even looking at it.

When Xu Laoba saw Zhao Xing coming back, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. He was really worried that Zhao Xing would never come back and gossip about him, ruining the reputation of Laohe Man.

"Young Master told me to wait, and in a flash he was gone."

"Oh, I saw an acquaintance. Let's go to Nanhu District to have a look."

With this perfunctory remark again, Xu Laoba didn't hesitate to ask more questions. Seeing that he was finally getting down to business, he immediately became energetic and picked up the guy to follow.

Walking to the Nanhu District, the lights are still bright, but the lights come more from the lake than from the ground.

The atmosphere also became quieter, without so many noisy sounds.

"Huh?" While walking along the covered bridge by the lake, Xu Laoba suddenly stopped and looked in a certain direction.

"What's wrong?" Zhao Xing asked.

"Oh, I saw an acquaintance." Xu Laoba waved his hand.

"..." Zhao Xing looked at him with a faint smile, now it's up to you to deal with me, right?

But this is really wrong to blame Xu Laoba.

"Don't get me wrong, sir. I really saw an acquaintance. Did you see the woman in linen in front of me? Yes, it's the pair with the girl in white next to them." Xu Laoba pointed in one direction.

"I saw it." Zhao Xing nodded. There was a small boat on the shore not far away, with a mother and daughter on it. Several fishing fires were lit on the boat, and they seemed to be busy with something.

"Lin Sanniang from Pingsiwantou lives in the same place as me. Her husband used to do this, but then her husband had an accident, so she took over her husband's place and became the new river fisherman."

"But since her son got married and started a business, he stopped doing it. He hasn't done it for some years. I don't know why he returned to his old business today." Xu Laoba was a little confused.

Zhao Xing took a closer look. Under the Bright Eyes spell, he saw that Xu Laoba was not telling lies. The middle-aged woman's clothing and tools were similar to Xu Laoba's.

As for the young girl, she was neatly dressed, and her plain clothes still had a bit of brilliance.

"Huh? First-order robe?" Zhao Xing turned to look at Xu Laoba, "Her daughter is the Weaver Girl of the Weaving Supervisor?"

Xu Laoba shook his head: "She has no daughter. That is her niece Lin Baiwei, but she is half a daughter. She was brought up by Lin Sanniang since she was a child. It seems that she was indeed admitted to the Gucheng Weaving Prison."

The Weaving Girl is an official in the Weaving Supervisory Department. The atmosphere in the Great Zhou Dynasty has always been open, and it is common for women to go out to work and serve as officials.

The profession of the Weaver Girl is mainly about "weaving robes", and the Weaver Girl is even a relatively important magic profession.

Zhao Xing nodded slightly: "It seems that Lin Sanniang returned to her old career for her niece."

Xu Laoba asked: "How do you know, Master?"

Zhao Xing pointed and said: "It's not like Lin Sanniang is going to catch some treasure, but she is going to prepare to collect lake silk."

"Most of the assessments of weaver supervisors are related to weaving cassocks."

"It is now the summer season in August, and the common first silkworms, second silkworms, and last silkworms are all gone."

“Only water silkworm lake silk can still be harvested, and the quality is even better.”

Seeing the adoring look on Xu Laoba's face, Zhao Xingxing came and said a few more words: "Weaver Girl has not yet been made into products, so most of them can only use this as material. Those whose silk is white, thin and tough are called combined

Luo robe."

"Wearing it warm in winter and cool in summer can drive away rheumatism and cold syndrome, and can also help weak children grow up healthily."

"The slightly worse ones are the five-stringed robes, and the worse ones are the fat robes."

"Most of the silk made from lake silk is Heluo robes, but the conditions for collecting silk are harsh. You can basically only find it around the River Lantern Festival, and it must be at night. During the day, the lake silkworms are huddled, so you can't catch them at all."

"So I said that Lin Sanniang returned to her old business for her niece. On the contrary, you Laohe people will do it more efficiently."

When Xu Laoba heard this, he couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Young Master knows so much."

Zhao Xing smiled and said, "Since we are acquaintances, do you want to go say hello? I'm not in a hurry."

Xu Laoba shook his head repeatedly: "Lin Sanniang has to take off her clothes when entering the water. If she bumps into her... am I, Xu Laoba, that kind of person? I won't go if I don't."

Zhao Xing smiled softly, feeling relieved about Xu Laoba.

Since there was a temple on the shore organizing the assessment, Zhao Xing rented a small boat and launched it into the water.

At this time, there were very few people putting out river lanterns, but there were still a few large boats and a dozen small boats on the water. The water was dotted with candles, and the surroundings were quiet.

Zhao Xing didn't say anything, just listened and watched quietly.

I didn’t see any human beings, but I saw a lot of wandering souls.

Either lying by the river lantern, or swimming underneath, smoking yellow paper incense.

These wandering souls may not all be human beings, some may be the souls of aquatic creatures, or they may be put together in strange shapes.

For example, when Zhao Xing's boat passed by a place, he saw a wandering soul with a fish head and human body.

Even those who live a long time will be cleaned out regularly by the clergy.

He can also hear:

"What are you doing?"

"I want to go there."

"What are you doing?"

"I want to go there."

There is a big river lantern not far away, and two strange-looking wandering souls are having a mechanical conversation. They keep saying these two sentences back and forth. One wants to go over, and the other asks what are you doing. Without the soul of wisdom, only the soul is left.

That's it.

Again, these wandering spirits have no attack power. They are purely a natural phenomenon and most of them will dissipate within seven days.

"Stop here." Zhao Xing suddenly pointed somewhere.

Xu Laoba immediately rowed over and his eyes lit up: "Sir, the surface of this lake is clear, but there are many fish swimming around. I'm afraid it's not attracted by the treasures. I'll try it in the water."

"Yeah." Zhao Xing's bright eye spell easily saw the bottom of the lake clearly. There were two first-class East Lake beads below.

The price is average, the market price is only one tael of silver. If it is in good condition, it can be sold for more, but it will never exceed two taels.

The main reason is that there is no shortage of such things in East Lake. If they can reach the second or third level, they can be sold at a good price.

Sure enough, Xu Laoba soon surfaced on the water, holding a shiny egg-sized bead in his hand: "Sir, I caught two lake beads!"

"Thank you, come up quickly." Zhao Xing took the beads. Both of them were first-grade high-quality beads, which almost paid off.

Before I had time to appreciate it too much, there were waves of tiny crackling sounds in the wind.

"The light, it's such a big light, it's so dazzling."

"Turtle, turtle, it's so cold there. It's freezing to death. I want to stay away from it."
