I subconsciously raised my hand to rub my eyes, but the surrounding environment didn't change much when I opened my eyes.

Looking at the familiar environment in front of me, I couldn't recover for a while.

The scene in front of me is still my home. I am lying on the sofa at home, with the game interface displayed on the mobile phone in my hand.

Thinking back on what happened to me just now, I couldn't tell whether it was a dream or reality.

"I can't afford it during the day, and I don't sleep at night! All I have to do is play with that broken mobile phone for one day!"

I turned around and saw my mother. She was cursing and standing in front of the dining table, wearing a floral apron and holding a plate of dishes in her hand.

"Why don't you come over for dinner?! You want me to feed you, right?"

My mother yelled at me again, with an expression as if she was going to rush over and smash my phone if I didn’t go over for dinner!

I immediately stood up and walked to the dining table. Just as I was about to tell my mother about the dream I had just had, she put a piece of braised pork in my bowl.

She never picks up food for me. What happened today?

I looked up at her doubtfully.

She sat opposite me, looking at me with undisguised anticipation in her eyes.

What is she expecting?

When I was confused, my mother's face changed, and her tone was full of warning.

"Eat quickly!"

Recalling the time when I was beaten by my mother when I was a child, I immediately raised the bowl and started to put rice into my mouth!

But after swallowing a mouthful of rice, something choked my throat!

Just as I was about to spit out everything in my mouth, I felt a biting chill on my neck.

It was my mother's hand. She didn't know when she came to my side and strangled my neck with both hands!

At this time, my mother was staring at me ferociously. She looked at me as if she were seeing her enemy.

She wants to strangle me to death!

Although I didn’t understand the situation clearly, I still struggled hard!

But no matter how hard I struggled, she still held me tightly.

Just when I thought I was about to die, a harsh sound suddenly came from my ears!

"Dingle bell!"

It's my alarm, but I don't have my phone with me right now. Why can I hear it in my ears?!

"Dingle bell!"

When the alarm rang for the second time, my mother's face began to peel off bit by bit like old wall covering.

What also changed like her face was the ripples in the background.

The familiar home gradually turned into the furnishings of an old pawn shop!

I should be in the pawn shop!

That alarm clock sound was clearly set by me after I finished soaking the mahogany chapter. I was afraid of missing the time to dress up!

When I woke up, I found that I was pinching my neck.

I hurriedly let go of my hand, but the suffocation feeling was not relieved, and there was an obvious feeling of being choked in my throat!

Take it out!

I don't know why, but this idea suddenly popped into my mind.

Like a drowning man grabbing the last life-saving rope, I hurriedly grabbed my throat with my hands.

"vomit!"

After retching, air rushed back into my lungs. Before I could take a few deep breaths, I started coughing violently.

And the thing I coughed up bounced a few times after falling to the ground.

Seeing that the thing was about to roll away, I endured the discomfort in my throat and lungs and pressed down on the thing.

Because of the physiological reaction caused by the feeling of near-death, my eyes were full of tears at this time, and I was busy coughing, so I couldn't really see what the thing was.

But after touching it with my hand, I was absolutely sure it was a pearl!

I knelt on the ground and calmed down for a while, thinking about the time the old man told me, and felt uneasy.

After being delayed for so long just now, it must have passed twelve o'clock. I don't know now whether Taomu Zhang's method of suppressing evil will still work?

But no matter what, this chapter is ready, I have to give it a try!

I quickly got up and ran to the incense burner, fished out the peach wood seal from the black dog's blood with my hands, and ran to the counter with the wooden seal.

The old man told me something before he left:

"Dirty things tend to bully the weak and fear the strong. The more you are afraid of it, the more it will look for you."

This sounds reasonable, but I have a hard time pretending to do it, let alone doing it.

But there was no other way. This Taomu Zhang suppressed evil spirits was the final solution. I could only bite the bullet and push open the door of the counter.

Before opening the door, I thought of many horrific scenes, and even thought of plans to fight and escape.

But when the door opened, I only saw the same costumes scattered on the ground as before.

I walked quickly towards the costume, then picked up the collar of the costume and threw it on the counter.

I don't know why, but at this moment I just feel that the costume is not as heavy as before.

After laying out the costume on the counter, I followed the method taught by the old man before: folding the hem of the costume inwards, and overlapping the two sleeves at the neckline of the costume.

The old man said this is called pressing shape with shape.

The method he taught me to fold clothes is to press the legs, feet, and wrists of the costume, just like prisoners in ancient times wore shackles and shackles.

After folding the costumes, I raised my head and shouted outside the counter:

"Pawning has dirty hands! Don't pawn alive! Don't pawn dead!"

The reason why I shout this is not because it is a curse, but in the old days, the pawnshop business was done by at least three people.

The main purpose of shouting like this is to tell other people in the pawn shop that there is something wrong with this thing.

If it is a live loan, when the current period is approaching, you should remind the owner to redeem the loan on time to avoid problems and conflicts in the future.

If it is a dead ploy, the purpose is to tell the other two people not to resell the things.

Although there is no one in my store now, I still want to make a show.

As soon as I finished speaking, I picked up the wooden seal on the side and covered it heavily on the costume.

In an instant, the blood stains on the costume looked like ink spreading in water!

The entire costume changed from the previous bright red to a maroon color similar to bloodstains, and the bloodstains gradually turned into black.

Looking at the old, rough, and stained costumes in front of me, I was inexplicably convinced that this was the original look of the costumes.

As for why I regarded such a costume, which was not worth even 20,000 yuan, as an intact antique, I can't explain the reason.

Oh, by the way, I thought this costume was valuable because of the pearls on it!

Thinking of pearls, I looked intently at the cloud shoulders of the costume, only to find that those pearls were still shining brightly.

Comparing it with the old costumes, I just feel that this shabby costume lowers the value of the pearls.

After confirming that there was nothing wrong with these pearls, I took out the pearls I had just coughed up from my throat.

There is no doubt that the pearl in my hand is one of the vacancies on Yun Jian.

After all, pearls of this color and 90% similar size cannot be found everywhere.

It seems that the cause of Liu Caixia's death is closely related to this pearl!

For a moment, the words I heard while taking notes at the police station echoed in my mind.

"I don't know what kind of evil that man has done. It looks like he was strangled to death!"

I immediately picked up my phone, and sure enough I saw two marks on my neck from the black screen!

In the dream just now, I saw my mother squeezing my neck, but when I woke up, I clearly remembered that there was no one around me!

And the person grabbing my neck was not my mother, and it couldn’t be the costume, it was me!

"It turns out that Liu Caixia fell into a dream and swallowed the pearl by mistake. It's strange that she couldn't die from pinching and choking!"

I muttered to myself in shock.

But why do you fall into a dream?

If there hadn't been that dream, I would have definitely tried to save myself after being choked. It would have been impossible for me to choke myself and hasten my death!

And if I don't find out the reason, as long as this costume is in the pawn shop for a day, I will be afraid for a day.

After carefully thinking about the experience just now, I put the reason on the fishy smell of the costume.

Probably because the costume was suppressed, the smell of blood has faded a lot now.

No matter what the problem with this costume is, as long as this thing is not left in a pawn shop, it will be fine!
Chapter completed!
