Chapter 715 Decided to take action
We waited outside for a while.
The master's uncle walked out of the back room wearing a Chinese tunic suit.
When I saw my uncle, I stood up and shouted respectfully:
"Uncle Master!"
When Wu Jing saw it, he quickly stood up and shouted tremblingly:
"Taoist Priest!"
The uncle said "hmm" and looked at Wu Jing:
"Playing cards with a ghost?"
Wu Jing nodded:
"Well, fight, fight, lose, lose thirty years of life."
At the same time, I handed over the IOU.
"Uncle Master, look at this!"
Uncle Master's expression was originally calm, but when he saw the IOU handed over to him, his expression changed obviously.
His brows furrowed slightly:
"IOU for life and longevity!"
"Life and longevity IOU?
Master, what else does this IOU say?"
Lao Mo opened his mouth.
I also looked at my uncle curiously.
Uncle Master frowned after reading the contents of the IOU:
"Life and longevity IOU, also called life and death lot.
A contract signed between the living and the dead.
Pay debts and pay them back, written in black and white.
Difficult to handle..."
When the uncle said this, Wu Jing panicked:
"Taoist, Taoist, you must save me, save me!"
After saying that, Wu Jing was anxious and wanted to kneel down again.
But he was supported by Lao Mo and me.
Lao Mo even opened his mouth and said:
"Master, what's so difficult about this!
Isn't it just a gambling debt owed to a few ghosts?
Let’s burn some more paper money and go there, won’t it be done?”
Without waiting for my uncle's reply, I said:
"Old Mo, that ghost lent him real money, rmb.
It’s not a ghost coin.”
"Ah? Borrowing real money? Playing cards with a ghost and using real money?"
Lao Mo was surprised and looked at Wu Jing.
Wu Jing nodded:
"Well, I can use all the money I won in that mahjong parlor before.
I bought clothes and pants, a computer and a mobile phone, and recharged money for games.
By the way, my 20,000 yuan watch was bought with the money won from that mahjong parlor."
The reason why I came here to find my uncle is because the money Wu Jing got was all real money.
If it is a ghost coin, there is no need to worry about whether it is an IOU or not.
We living people have no use for ghost coins.
But the ghost used real money and issued an IOU, so the situation became difficult.
That's why I came here to ask the teacher.
Lao Mo was shocked and asked:
"So, how much have you won before?"
Wu Jing answered honestly:
"There should be around 200,000!
In addition to what I used, I later borrowed another three hundred thousand.
But if we all lose, we will lose thirty years of our lives."
After hearing this, Lao Mo frowned and said:
"Then your life has been hacked too much.
Thirty years is only worth three hundred thousand.
I didn't bring back a penny.
Now people are asking for their lives with IOUs.
Damn it, it’s a dead end!”
Uncle Master also sighed:
"How can I get money back from a ghost?
If you win money, he will live longer.
The money you brought out before was all exchanged for your life, and that's what you won.
Mr. Wu's body has already shortened his lifespan by at least ten years.
Moreover, those ghosts will not bear any karmic debt because of this."
"Ten, ten years?"
Several of us looked at Wu Jing in surprise.
An inch of time is worth an inch of gold, but an inch of gold cannot buy an inch of time.
Thirty years old, I still have the IOU, and I still have a chance to get it back.
But the ten years that he was given in exchange for life in the first place were gone as soon as he said goodbye...
Uncle Master, on the other hand, continued:
“The question now is how to get the IOU back.
Moreover, this IOU is a life-saving loan.
If you can't get it back, your life will be gone in thirty years."
Seeing that my uncle and his master had such a troubled expression, I also darkened my face slightly:
"Uncle Master, what should we do about this matter?
Is it this kind of thing where ghosts borrow money and people sell their lives?
Is it really out of control?
Or, if you really raise 300,000 yuan, why don’t you go in?”
For a moment, all of us looked at Uncle Master.
Wu Jing was so frightened that he cried on the spot:
"I, I don't have 300,000, my family is from the countryside.
House, even if the house is sold, it still can’t be repaid!
Even if, even if I sell my kidney now, it’s too late!”
The uncle waved his hand to signal him not to get excited.
Then I heard my uncle say coldly:
"Of course I can manage it.
It is definitely impossible to pay back 300,000 yuan.
Moreover, when playing cards with ghosts, they win whenever they want and lose whenever they want. There is no fairness at all.
Out of the left pocket, in in the right pocket.
The borrowed money has already been returned to them.
Speaking more broadly, the country is now vigorously cracking down on illegal loan sharking and illegal gambling establishments.
This kind of thing where wild ghosts borrow money to sell their lives.
Although there are life-span arrears blocking cause and effect, there are loopholes.
But if they do this, won't they disrupt the order of yin and yang?
Then why do we, the maintainers of the yin and yang order, need to come?
And after all, those ghosts probably don’t want money, they just want his life.”
After hearing from his uncle that he could manage it, Wu Jing also saw hope.
Lao Mo and I also concentrated our attention.
I would like to hear how to deal with life-span IOUs.
When Uncle Master saw us all looking at him, he continued:
"This matter is actually not difficult.
It's just troublesome and a waste of time.
When you go to deal with it, bring more coins with you.
When I saw the ghost shopkeeper, I said something first.
Let's see if we can get the Mingshou IOU back.
It is also feasible to pay some incense price.
After all, the IOU is just a reminder for Mr. Wu, a karmic debt.
If you can't get it back, Mr. Wu will always be carrying it.
Even if you die, you will still be in debt.
I will pay it back in my next life.
Of course, don't be groveling.
We are Taoist priests of the Bai sect and we cannot lose face.
It is best to settle things peacefully.
No more, just act according to the situation.
It should be killed, it should be destroyed.
If you can't figure it out, bring Mr. Wu back.
I'll take action when the time comes.
Our territory cannot be allowed to be messed up by these sneaky people..."
