As the saying goes, people's hearts turn into ghosts. Whenever people encounter these things that cannot be explained scientifically, they will panic. They will either go to the temple to ask for blessings from Bodhisattva, or they will find Feng Shui masters like us to help resolve it. In this way
, the business in our shop has gradually increased, but in fact most of them did not really encounter anything evil, they just did it for
It’s just for peace of mind. This is actually very easy to do. As long as we perform a pretentious ritual and then give the other person a few amulets and other small things, we can basically collect money. But I always feel that this is a kind of deception.
It smells bad, so I generally don’t bother to take on this kind of work. If such a person comes to my door, I usually give him an amulet for free.
At first, Jianjian strongly opposed my doing this. He felt that although the amulets cost nothing, they could still be sold for some money. Besides, if customers can get free amulets, who would be willing to spend more money. So he felt
, not only is there no benefit to me doing this, but it may actually affect the operation of the store.
However, not long after, we found that the store's turnover increased instead of decreasing, and it increased almost geometrically. This was beyond my expectation. After a period of observation, I discovered the clues. It turned out that,
Because of my line of giving away amulets for free
Because we have won the favor of most customers, they will not only buy some other lucky items themselves, but also introduce their relatives and friends to come. Even many people who have not experienced anything evil will come to our store to buy some lucky items to seek wealth.
Or a lucky object for peace.
It was really unintentional. Qibaozhai's business suddenly improved a lot. Jianjian and I were very excited. Although compared to helping others perform rituals to exorcise evil spirits, these small businesses are not very profitable, and they are also quite busy.
But it feels quite fulfilling. The most important thing is that Qibaozhai’s reputation in the provincial capital is getting better and better.
However, as the business became more and more prosperous, it also caused trouble. On this day, Jianjian and I were receiving a few regular customers in the store, and four or five young people suddenly came to the store. When I saw a customer coming to the door, I immediately came forward.
I said hello, but these guys were lukewarm and didn't pay attention to me. They just looked left and right. Judging from their posture, it seemed that they were coming with bad intentions.
After all, our Qibao Zhai is open for business. Since they are here, there is no reason to drive them away. I forced a smile and asked: "What do you want to buy?"
One of the guys who seemed to be the leader said coldly: "Are you the owner of this store?"
I nodded.
Unexpectedly, the other party's expression immediately changed, he rushed over and grabbed me by the collar, shouting: "You charlatan! How dare you use dead people's things to fool me!" After saying that, he took out a wrinkled knife from his pocket.
A ball of yellow form paper was thrown into my face.
I immediately realized that I was in trouble, but since there were other customers in the store, I suppressed the anger in my heart, picked up the rune and took a look, and saw that there was actually a ghost-calling charm drawn on it!
The ghost summoning talisman is an evil talisman that can be used to summon lonely ghosts. In ancient times, it was often used to harm people, but it is rarely seen now.
Before I could speak, the other party said: "My old man came to you sincerely to ask for a fortune charm, but you gave him such a charm to attract ghosts, causing him to be possessed by ghosts! He only had half a life left, if not
I found an expert in this field, but my old man may be hopeless, so what do you think of this matter?"
I calmed down and said as calmly as possible: "This talisman is not from Qibao Zhai. The talisman made by Qibao Zhai has our Qibao Zhai's seal on every talisman."
"Damn it, my old man asked for the talisman from you, do you still want to admit it!? Brothers, help me smash this store..." He just finished speaking, before the guys behind him rushed up.
Coming forward, I grabbed his wrist that was holding my collar and twisted it violently. I heard a "click" and one of his arms was twisted behind his back by me. He immediately screamed in pain.
A guy standing next to him immediately took out a steel pipe from his waist and struck it towards my head. I flew up and kicked him out of the store before the steel pipe came down.
Outside, he fell onto his back.
When the other three guys saw this, they all pulled out the steel pipes and rushed over together. I was not afraid of these little gangsters. I shouted loudly and fought with them with my bare hands. When I saw this, I also immediately
He picked up a mahogany sword and rushed out from the counter to help.
After all, we both have a solid foundation in kung fu, and I have improved a lot in terms of speed and strength, which is more than enough to deal with a few gangsters. With just a few strokes, I knocked all these guys to the ground.
However, the glass counter in the store was also damaged and several pieces of glass were smashed. One of the customers even scratched his hand on the broken glass because he was unable to dodge.
Across the way, Wen Qingshan heard the commotion and led Fatty Niu over. Seeing the chaotic situation, he quickly asked: "What's going on?"
Jianjian kicked a guy who was lying on the ground and cursed: "These guys actually dare to come to our store to cause trouble!"
Wen Qingshan frowned, looked up and glanced at the store again, and found that a customer was injured. He immediately turned to Fatty Niu and said, "Junior, take these customers to the nearby clinic to get some medicine."
Fatty Niu agreed, then stepped forward to greet the frightened customers to leave the shop.
After several customers had gone out, I grabbed the leader by the collar, picked him up, and asked coldly: "Who instigated you to do this?"
However, the guy just kept moaning and moaning and didn't answer me.
I was a little annoyed and was about to beat him up when Wen Qingshan came over, patted my shoulder lightly and said, "Let me ask him."
I immediately thought of the scene when Wen Qingshan interrogated Scar Qiang. At that time, Scar Qiang was much tougher than this guy, but as soon as Wen Qingshan tapped his smile point, he couldn't bear it anymore, and in the end he had to confess obediently.
It seems that Wen Qingshan is planning to repeat his old tricks now.
I loosened the guy's collar and stood aside. Wen Qingshan walked up to him. As expected, he raised his hand and quickly tapped the guy's waist. The guy immediately fell to the ground and laughed loudly.
After laughing for a while, he gave up. His facial muscles were completely distorted, his expression was extremely painful, and his body began to twitch. His appearance was almost the same as the scar face from back then.
Seeing that it was almost done, Wen Qingshan raised his hand and tapped his waist twice more. Only then did he regain his breath and lay on the ground, breathing heavily.
Wen Qingshan squatted in front of him and said coldly: "If you don't tell me the truth, believe it or not, I will laugh until your face collapses!"
When the guy heard this, he quickly waved his hand and said: "I... I said, it was... Boss Lu from Yufeng Pavilion asked... to let us come."
Wen Qingshan was slightly startled: "Yufeng Pavilion? Yufeng Pavilion is in the south of the city, Qibao Zhai is in the north of the city, everyone is doing their own business, why does he let you come here to cause trouble?"
The guy said: "I...I don't know, he gives us money, I...we are only responsible for doing things..."
Wen Qingshan turned to look at me and asked, "Do you have anything to do with Yufeng Pavilion?"
I shook my head: "I didn't say anything about Yufeng Pavilion, do you know that?"
"How do I know! What does Yufeng Pavilion do?"
Wen Qingshan said: "Yufeng Pavilion is a famous Feng Shui shop in the south of the city. The owner is named Lu Yufeng. It is said that his ancestor was a Feng Shui master appointed by Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty."
"Since you are a famous Feng Shui master, why do you use this evil trick? He actually drew a ghost charm to frame us!" I said angrily.
Wen Qingshan smiled slightly and said: "As the saying goes, fellow travelers are like enemies. You two both run Feng Shui shops, and your shop's business has been getting more and more prosperous recently, which will inevitably make your peers jealous."
"Damn it, since he's already here, brother! Let's go! Let's smash up his shop!" Jianjian looked even more angry.
Wen Qingshan waved his hand and said: "After all, you have just established yourself in the provincial capital. In my opinion, it is better to turn the hostility into friendship. Making too many enemies will do you no good."
I glanced at the gangsters lying on the ground and asked Wen Qingshan: "Boss Wen, what should we do with these guys?"
Wen Qingshan lowered his head and said coldly to the leader: "Go away! If you dare to come here again to cause trouble, don't blame me for being rude."
When the guy heard this, he immediately struggled to get up, without saying a word, and limped away with a few of his men.
Looking at their retreating figures, Jianjian sighed: "I just let them run away, I haven't beaten them enough yet!"
Wen Qingshan said with a smile: "I'll show mercy to others if I have to, but they're just a few gangsters who use their money to eliminate disasters for others!"
"Is this the case?" Jianjian asked.
"No!" Wen Qingshan turned to me and said, "Shi Yu, please come with me."
"Where to go?"
"Go to Yufeng Pavilion and ask Lu Yufeng for clarification!"
When Jianjian heard this, he immediately said: "I'll go too!" As he said this, he bent down and picked up a steel pipe that the gangsters had just dropped.
Seeing his posture, Wen Qingshan laughed and said: "Haha, you thought you were going to fight! We are going to judge, not because there are many people! And even if it is a fight, Shi Yu and I will not suffer."
"What if he tries another dirty trick!?"
"Don't worry, he doesn't dare to play tricks in front of Mr. Wen! Let's go!" After Wen Qingshan finished speaking, he walked towards the Toyota SUV parked in front of Guyuan Pavilion.
I turned around and said to Jianjian: "Please tidy up the shop first. If those guys come to your door again later, don't fight with them!" After saying that, I quickly followed him.
