Chapter Fifty, The Living Dead

The three of them had breakfast, and not long after, a few grown men outside carried a ready-made coffin to the grocery store. The coffin was made of ordinary materials and should be old goods from the coffin shop, but there was nothing to choose from for emergencies.

Zhou Qiao was afraid of scaring Uncle Zhi Guo, so he didn't use the method of driving away the corpse. Instead, he asked Yang Gan and Fat Brother to carry the corpse into the coffin. Zhou Qiao cleaned up Xiaoxiao's body and let Uncle Zhi Guo take a look at Xiao Xiao. Xiao took one last look and immediately sealed the coffin door, affixing a dead body amulet in the center of the coffin to ensure that the body would not be disturbed by evil spirits;

"Ashes return to dust, earth returns to earth, all things are yin and yang, life and death are impermanent, the body returns to floating earth, the soul returns to ghosts, return here~ return..."

Zhou Qiao silently recited the requiem spell, and Uncle Zhiguo stared blankly at the coffin. Until this moment, he clearly realized that his daughter was separated from him and would never come back. It was as if his energy and energy had been drained out in an instant. The person seems to have aged a lot in an instant;

After finishing these trivial matters, Zhou Qiao and others walked out of the grocery store and prepared to go to Yingdu City, which Uncle Zhiguo had mentioned. There were many pedestrians along the way, and there were many Feng Shui shops on the street. Yang Gan pulled the two of them and rushed in. , not many people visited the Feng Shui shop in the early morning.

"Boss, why don't you say hello to the guests?"

When the boss heard the sound of the store door, he looked up and saw Zhou Qiao and three others walking in. He felt happy. These were the first batch of customers today. He said smoothly: "Welcome, do you need any Feng Shui supplies?"

Yang Gan looked around and found at a glance that the furnishings in the store were very simple and there was nothing worth buying at all. He was a little disappointed, but seeing the boss's enthusiasm, he still smiled and said: "Boss, take out the treasure of your store and take a look. Look, don’t fool people with these low-grade products outside.”

The boss hesitated for a moment, then looked up at Zhou Qiao and Fat Brother, and then at Yang Qian's clothes. Seeing that Yang Qian looked like a typical rich man, knowing that the God of Wealth was coming, his heart was filled with joy, and his mouth was full of joy. He said calmly: "I have some food, but I'm afraid some of you won't be able to eat it..."

The implication is that things are very expensive. After all, no matter how small a Feng Shui item is, from a compass to a town object, there is no such thing as cheap!

"Hmph~ Boss, just take it out smoothly. As long as you guys are interested in it, money is not a problem~"

While speaking, Yang Qian cleared his throat and looked at the shop owner angrily;

"Okay, everyone, please wait a moment. I'll go to the warehouse at the back to pick up some good products and bring them to you guys."

As soon as the boss finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the backyard. After a while, he carefully came over with a nanmu box, and solemnly took out three items from it and opened them one by one.

Yang Gan's eyes lit up, and his two big eyes were fixed on one of the magic weapons, looking at it constantly. Although Zhou Qiao didn't know Feng Shui as well as Yang Qian, he could see the extraordinary quality from the aura of the object in the middle. Although Fat Brother had robbed a lot of tombs and seen a lot of good things in the early years, asking him to tell you what good things are and how valuable they are is like catching a blind eye. He graduated from the second grade of elementary school and can distinguish things. It's hard to do good or bad for him.

"Haha~ How about you guys take a look at these three things of mine?"

The boss looked at Yang Qian proudly;

Yang Gan pointed to the object in the middle, "If I read it correctly, this is a dragon tortoise that suppresses evil spirits."

When the boss heard this, he showed an expression of surprise on his face, "You are really a knowledgeable person. This is indeed a dragon tortoise that suppresses evil spirits."

Yang Gan smiled and looked at the Dragon Turtle. This is a magic weapon made from the shell of a century-old turtle and ancient bronze coins. The Dragon Turtle is contained in it. It is said that it can suppress evil spirits and bring good health to people. Good luck. Yang Qian sighed in his heart, "What a good thing! It's really a good thing! It would be great to buy this thing and bring it back to your house!"

"Boss, how much does this evil-suppressing dragon turtle cost?" Yang Gan asked.

The boss weighed the walnuts in his hand and made an eight-digit gesture: "Eight hundred thousand! This is a thing worth a good price."

Hearing the price, Yang Qian gritted his teeth in his heart. He knew that the price was much higher than the market price, but he still wanted this magic weapon. When he was about to take out his wallet and swipe his card to pay, Zhou Qiao stopped him. He pointed to another item next to him, "How can I buy this Yin Stone Jade?"

After hearing this, the boss's face changed. He didn't expect Zhou Qiao to tell the story of the origin of this thing at such a young age. A trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes:

"Five million?"

Zhou Qiao looked at the boss with a smile and said, "Boss, where did you get this thing? Yin stone jade is also called yin and yang jade. It is said that it can reverse the yin and yang qi. If yang qi does not arise, yin qi will not be destroyed. This thing is not Like something that should be in the world of the sun."

Suddenly, a cold wind blew in from outside, and the surrounding atmosphere became weird!

The boss pretended to be calm and said: "I don't know what you are talking about."

Zhou Qiao knocked on the table, "Let's not pretend to be confused because we understand, right? It's boring to talk too plainly."

"this……"

"Okay, I'll tell you secretly, but you have to promise me not to tell anyone else."

"Don't worry, boss, we are just curious - we will never reveal anything!"

The boss nodded, invited the three of them to sit down and slowly talked about the origin of this Yin Stone Jade, "This is a possession from the home of an old man named Jiang in our town. This old man has a weird temper and withdrawn personality. He has lived in the town for dozens of years." I have never interacted with the outside world for many years. Over time, I don’t know when I started to turn white and look like a human being. It was so pale that I looked intimidating. A few days ago, I didn’t know why I came to my place and took out this piece of Yinshi jade and sold it to me. Got me!"

The boss took a sip of water and continued, "I also know that most people can't touch this thing, but it's so rare that I got itchy and kept it as a store treasure!"

Zhou Qiao frowned, "Yin stone jade, as the name suggests, is a thing from the underworld. If a living person comes into contact with it for a long time, the balance of yin and yang will be imbalanced, and his lifespan may be shortened..."

After asking the boss about the address of old man Jiang’s home, Zhou Qiao planned to go over and take a look. Yang Qian was holding the black turtle that he just bought for 800,000 yuan silly and happily.

Unexpectedly, after all the nonsense between Zhou Qiao and the shop owner, he actually got the boss to use the Yin Stone Jade as a supplement. It was a free bargain. However, it may be that the boss saw that several people were somewhat knowledgeable and did not dare to risk his life.

Zhou Qiao and the others came to the door of Old Jiang's house. Yang Gan saw something was wrong at first sight and found that this place was indeed a very gloomy place. Although it was broad daylight, the two large locust trees in front of the door blocked the sunlight, which made people feel uncomfortable. It feels very depressing. There is a string of bells hanging at the door, which make a "ding-dang-dang" sound when blown by the wind, which makes people shudder.

He has studied Feng Shui with his grandfather since he was a child, and is very knowledgeable about these metaphysical things. He pointed to the bell at the door and said to Zhou Qiao and Fat Brother: "Look at this bell, the bell is used to control the house, but this string of bells The quantity is wrong and does not comply with the laws of Feng Shui. There must be something wrong here."

Neither Zhou Qiao nor Fat Brother knew Feng Shui, but they instinctively felt that this place was weird. They walked to the door and knocked, but no one responded. Zhou Qiao tried to push the door and found that it was locked. I tried calling a few times: "Is anyone there?... Is anyone home?"

There was no response. Zhou Qiao suddenly remembered that the store owner mentioned that Old Jiang had a weird temper and might not like to deal with the outside world, so they had to retreat outside and wait.

They waited for a long time, but still no one responded, and the surrounding atmosphere became more and more depressing and suffocating.

Zhou Qiao decided to go in to find Old Man Jiang. He tried to unlock the door, but the door lock was very complicated and could not be opened. They had to go around to the backyard to see if they could get in from another place.

The backyard is also a very gloomy place, overgrown with weeds, and half of the dilapidated house collapsed, which makes people feel very desolate. Zhou Qiao, Fat Brother, and Yang Gan carefully walked around the dilapidated house and walked to the other side. They found One of the windows was ajar and they tried to climb in.

It was dark inside the window and they couldn't see clearly, so they could only walk by feeling. Suddenly, a hand stretched out from the darkness and grabbed Yang Gan's wrist, which made him feel very frightened.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?" An old voice came from the darkness.

"We are here to find Mr. Jiang and want to know the origin of Yinshi Jade." Yang Qian replied cautiously.

"Yinshi Jade? Who are you? How do you know this thing?" the old man asked.

"We learned about it from a Feng Shui shop in town. Are you Mr. Jiang? I wonder how you got this thing?" Zhou Qiao asked.
