Chapter 246 Strange Old Man
Although I have captured the Ghost King's daughter and come back, I can't wake her up. Doesn't this mean that my work was in vain?
I quickly asked the nine-tailed fox if there was any other way. I couldn't win an empty jackpot, and everyone was fighting for the ghost king's daughter. I didn't know if she was strong or not, but she must be a treasure.
The nine-tailed fox shook her head and said that there was nothing she could do about it. The Ghost King's daughter had been sleeping, which was an unsolvable mystery in the ghost world. I'm afraid only the Ghost King knew about it.
Ghost King? This guy has already received his lunch box, and was trampled to pieces along with the sealed black gossip.
There was really no other way, so I found an umbrella and temporarily sealed her in it. I also posted two yellow talismans on the left and right sides of the door to prevent her Yin Qi from leaking out, because the ghost king's daughter had too much Yin Qi. , even if it is sealed into an umbrella, it cannot be completely concealed.
The nine-tailed fox didn't say anything, but looked at Shen Luoyi with confusion, not at me, with a strange look in his eyes.
Shen Luo felt embarrassed when she was seen, so she quickly lowered her head and hid behind me.
"What's wrong, master?" I quickly asked the nine-tailed fox, why are you looking at Shen Luoyi like this?
The nine-tailed fox sighed: "My calculation was wrong. I thought I asked you to take her up as a bait. I didn't expect that you are too kind. It's good now that you have recruited a love rival for yourself."
I was stunned, love rival? Who is it?
"What are you talking about, the daughter of the Ghost King? Isn't she also a woman? And one person and one ghost, what kind of love rival is this? What nonsense?"
I laughed bitterly. Apart from the Ghost King's daughter, I couldn't think of anyone the nine-tailed fox was hinting at.
But the words of the nine-tailed fox hit my heart directly and gave me a feeling of sudden enlightenment.
She said: "Regardless of men and women, there is no ghost who doesn't like the daughter of Nine Yins."
When I heard it, I immediately understood what the nine-tailed fox meant. It seemed to be true, but even so, so what, Shen Luoyi might not like ghosts!
The nine-tailed fox snorted coldly: "It's hard to say, what if?"
"If that happens, I'll be even more excited."
I'm afraid that they will get pregnant together. Can I not be excited?
Nine-tailed fox: “…………”
Shen Luo's face turned red and her ears turned red when she heard such talk of tigers and wolves, and she shyly hid behind me.
At this moment, someone suddenly knocked on the door, banging loudly, as if it was urgent.
I checked the time. It was after five o'clock in the morning and it was still dark. How could someone come to me at this time?
Shen Luo shrank his neck and finally said the first sentence: "It's not those people who came to the door, right?"
The nine-tailed fox shook his head: "No, hundreds of ghosts hunt at night. They all rely on their abilities. They won't come to the door. There is someone else outside the door. Open the door. As long as I'm here, no one dares to act arrogant here."
But after she finished saying this, she disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving only an afterimage in place.
This... was promised that you would be here? You should stay!
"Kekeke..."
The knock on the door rang again, getting louder and louder every time. This time I walked behind the door and looked outside through the peephole.
Standing outside the door was an old man, dressed in a Tang suit, about sixty-five years old, with white beard and hair. He was leaning on a cane in his right hand, holding a black leather box in his left hand, and wearing a pair of sunglasses.
He seemed to be in a hurry, knocking on the door again and again, and it was still dark today. Why are he wearing sunglasses? Is there something wrong with his brain? Or is he blind?
I opened the door and asked him, "Who is it? Why did you knock on the door this early in the morning?"
When the old man saw me, instead of taking off his sunglasses, he nervously pushed them up, as if he was afraid they would fall off.
"Excuse me, are you selling ghosts?" The old man was very direct and didn't even say a word of greeting.
I frowned: "I don't raise ghosts, why would you come to me to buy ghosts?"
In our line of work, those who eat the food of yin and yang are called yin people, or eat the food of the dead, and our line of work is also collectively called the yin line.
There are all kinds of yin people in the yin industry, but are there anyone who sell ghosts? Of course there are, ghost cultivators sell ghosts, and some businessmen in Thailand also sell ghosts, but most of them are little ghosts.
I don’t know this old man, and I’m not a ghost cultivator. You can come to me to tell fortunes, read Feng Shui, catch ghosts and exorcise evil spirits, but I really don’t have the skills to buy ghosts.
"I know you don't raise ghosts, but you just caught one and that's the one I want to buy!"
The old man's intention was already obvious, he wanted to buy the Ghost King's daughter.
I was a little shocked, how could he know this? When we were in the mountains, they were all young people, between the ages of eighteen and twenty-five. I can be sure that there were absolutely no old men.
After I came back, I was only delayed for about eight minutes, and then I sealed the ghost king's daughter in the umbrella to remove the yin energy, and put yellow talismans on both sides of the door.
In this case, no matter how high your Taoism is, you won't be able to detect it.
Even if you notice it, you just know that there is a ghost in this house.
I quickly asked the old man: "How...how did you know?"
The old man didn't answer. He picked up his box and opened it. He found a box full of money and all of it was American knives.
"This is half a million US dollars. If you are willing to sell it, how about I give you another one million US dollars?"
The old man directly gave an attractive price, but now money is just a blank piece of paper to me. I have no life left, so what should I use it for? The most I can spend is on the nine-tailed fox.
"Not for sale!"
I refused directly, and then I didn't bother to say anything more and closed the door behind my back.
But at this moment, there was a sudden bang, and the old man held the door with one hand to prevent it from closing. I saw the door immediately dented, and the force of his hand made my face change.
This old man is not simple, and the person who comes is not kind, and the kind person never comes!
"Huh? Do you have any other advice? Breaking down someone else's door is not only rude, but you also have to pay for it."
I said to the old man seriously, as if to warn him.
"Make a price, I really need this ghost." The old man persisted, as if he didn't want to give up, and he was determined to buy the ghost king's daughter.
"I said, I won't sell it!" I got a little angry, and then stared at him, what's wrong with this old man? Can't he understand people or something?
"Can you do something for me?"
Seeing that I seemed unwilling to compromise, the old man suddenly changed the subject. He no longer wanted me to do anything, but wanted me to do something.
"What's up?"
"Feng Shui!" the old man replied, and asked at the same time, "Can I go in and sit down and talk?"
"Of course, please."
I invited him in. Since he asked me to do business, I naturally welcomed him. Since those ten copper coins, I have not taken over any business.
The second uncle said that he wanted to pay tribute to the Su family. Anyway, I am poor, so I can give it to them temporarily if I make the money.
It's just that this old man's purpose seems to be more than this. I feel that he still hasn't given up on the Ghost King's daughter.
