【162】Purple
When I rushed back to the scene, I discovered that Xu Jingyang had also arrived and was communicating with the "Master Dian". The "Master Dian" seemed very impatient. When he saw me coming back, his face lit up and he hurriedly greeted me.
Come up.
I quickly handed him the 20,000 yuan in my hand. "Master Dian" took it carefully. After counting, he took out 3,000 yuan and said, "Ten thousand and seventeen yuan is enough. I have a pocket."
There is still some change in it..."
After saying that, I saw him take out a lot of change from his pocket, the largest denomination of which was only twenty, and the rest were mostly ten or five yuan. He finally scraped together more than three hundred yuan, and then together we
Gave it to the breakfast shop owner.
The shop owner took it with a complicated expression. After hesitating for a long time, he only accepted 10,000 yuan, and refused to take the remaining 7,000 yuan. Probably, even he saw it, "Master Dian"
He didn't have much money, which could be seen from the more than 300 yuan in change that he scraped together.
But even so, "Master Dian" still insisted on borrowing money to compensate his shop.
To be honest, the main responsibility for this matter does not actually lie with "Master Dian", but more with that Sima Kong. After all, he was the original instigator of this matter.
Unfortunately, Sima Kong had already escaped, and "Master Dian" couldn't bear to let the shop owner suffer losses, so he lent money to me, a "passerby" who met by chance.
They are all good people...
After some evasion, when the shop owner insisted on not accepting the payment, Master Dian gave up and directly returned the remaining 7,000 yuan to me, saying, "Then just borrow 10,000 yuan and make up a round number..."
After much hesitation, Master Dian suddenly took out a piece of talisman paper from his pocket. When I looked at it carefully, I couldn't help but be shocked.
Holy shit! It’s actually a purple talisman!
Could this be the legendary purple talisman?
What I didn't expect was that "Master Dian" actually handed over the purple talisman directly, and said with some pain: "Let me tell you the truth, I don't think I can pay you back in a while."
, how about I mortgage this purple talisman to you?"
"ah?"
When I heard this, my expression suddenly changed. He actually wanted to mortgage this purple talisman to me for a mere ten thousand yuan?
Gold, silver, purple, blue, and yellow. You know, the blue talisman alone is already worth tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands, and the power of this purple talisman is far greater than that of the blue talisman. How much is it worth?
"What? You don't want to?"
Seeing my hesitation, "Master Dian" immediately frowned and said angrily: "Aren't you a practitioner? You should know that the value of this purple talisman is definitely more than 10,000!"
"No, no..."
As soon as I saw his "angry" look, I knew he must have misunderstood me, so I quickly waved my hand and said, "It is precisely because I am a practitioner that I understand the true value of this purple talisman.
! This is too expensive! It’s only 10,000 yuan. Even if Master doesn’t pay it back, it’s fine. How can I have the nerve to accept your purple talisman..."
"Hmph! But I, the monk, never like to owe anyone favors!"
With a cold snort, "Master Dian" handed me the purple talisman in his hand and said, "Take it if it's given to you! I can see that you will have a big disaster in the near future. This purple talisman will definitely
It can come in handy!"
After saying this, Master Dian ignored us and turned around to leave.
"senior!"
Xu Jingyang and I shouted almost at the same time, but Master Na Dian ignored us and disappeared into the crowd in an instant.
"Ah? This..."
Looking at the shining purple talisman in my hand, I couldn't help but be dumbfounded on the spot. This was a purple talisman! To be honest, it was my first time to see such a high-level talisman. To say that I wasn't tempted would be obviously false, but
The question is, is this too expensive?
"well……"
At the same time, Xu Jingyang couldn't help but sigh, then patted my shoulder and said with a smile: "Forget it, since the master gave it to you, just accept it! Maybe the master just wants to have a good relationship with you,
With his strength, a purple talisman might not be anything..."
"Oh? Really?"
After hearing what he said, I put away the purple talisman and asked, "Who is this Master Dian? Why is he acting so weird..."
"He used to be an eminent monk of Hongfu Temple, and he was also one of the elders of the Religious Bureau! Unfortunately, he was seriously injured in the Penglai Battle that year, and has not been heard from since. Unexpectedly, he suddenly appeared again today!"
"Is that so?"
I nodded, but I really didn't expect that this "Master Dian" had such an origin and was also one of the elders of the Religious Bureau. Wouldn't that mean that just like Mr. Deng, he was a master of the same generation as my grandfather?
Thinking of this, I suddenly thought of Sima Kong just now, and couldn't help but quickly asked: "Then where did the Sima Kong who fought against Master Dian just come from? I think his strength is almost as strong as Master Dian.
, and it seems that he also has a lot of grudges against Master Dian.”
"I came here just for this matter. Sima Kong is a very well-known person. According to the information I have learned, this person is probably one of the top ten 'Buddha generals' of Xichuan Red Lantern Sect. In addition, there are
With the support of the entire Sima family, its status in the Red Lantern Cult is almost second only to their 'Allah'!"
"Buddha general..."
Fortunately, I had heard Lao Zhangtou introduce the "Red Lantern Sect" before, and I knew what the word "Buddha General" actually represented. In the Red Lantern Sect, the highest status person is "Allah", also called the "Emperor".
Next are the ten "Buddha generals", all of whom are masters in their own right. As for other ordinary members of the sect, they are mostly called "brothers" or "Buddha soldiers".
"Then what is the relationship between this man and Sima Yin? I just deceived him, and judging from his reaction, this man definitely knows Sima Yin!"
"Then it's not clear..."
Xu Jingyang shook his head and then said with some uncertainty: "Judging from Sima Yin's methods, this person is probably also one of the core members of the Red Lantern Sect. In addition, they all have the same surname of Sima. Maybe this Sima
Yin is also from the Sima family, and judging from their age, it is possible that they are brothers, but not necessarily."
After a pause, Xu Jingyang said with a worried look on his face: "Unexpectedly, even Sima Kong, one of the top ten 'Buddha Generals', also came to Qianyang. It seems that something big is about to happen in Qianyang!
"
"event?"
I frowned slightly, and couldn't help but mutter: "What big thing is going to happen in Qianyang? Could it be related to the Provincial Hospital's 'Fourteenth Floor' and the Wulichong Crematorium?"
"Very possible!"
Xu Jingyang nodded and said: "I have gone to Wulichong Crematorium before, and the formation techniques there really seem to be the work of the Red Lantern Cult!"
"Okay! You guys go to class first! I'm almost ready here. While my master is also in Qianyang, I plan to resolve the matter on the 14th floor of the provincial hospital in the next two days! Just wait for my call.
…”
After saying this, Xu Jingyang left here in a hurry.
"Is something big going to happen again?"
I had been watching Xu Jingyang's car drive away, and then I took Xia Xiaoyi to the classroom with a worried look on my face. When there was no one around, I couldn't help but dial Lao Zhangtou's phone number. School had already started.
It's been several days and this guy hasn't come to school yet?
However, when I dialed his number, the voice prompt of "the other party is not in the service area" still came from the other side of the phone.
Where did he go? Why can't he even get through on the phone?
Could it be that he was worried that I had noticed something, so he ran away in advance? Or that he had already got what he wanted?
The call to Lao Zhangtou was unreachable, so I tentatively asked Xia Xiaoyi: "Have you contacted Lao Zhangtou recently? It has been several days since school started, and there is no trace of him. Now he doesn't even have a phone call."
Can’t get through.”
"How do I know!"
Xia Xiaoyi looked confused, and then muttered somewhat speechlessly: "It sounds like I know him very well..."
Well, isn't it?
I clearly remember that when Xia Xiaoyi encountered the "Ghost Mother Fierce" on the back mountain, that is, the "Little Carrot Head" who had not yet grown into a ghost, Lao Zhangtou looked very anxious! And the blue face on his body
The talisman also burned inexplicably.
I didn't notice it at the time, but now that I think about it, that blue talisman was definitely a contact or warning talisman. Could it be that Xia Xiaoyi was asking for help from Lao Zhangtou through the talisman?
However, since Xia Xiaoyi refused to admit it, I didn't say much. Because in my opinion, even if Xia Xiaoyi and Lao Zhangtou had some kind of connection before, she shouldn't be able to harm me, right?
