Chapter 10 The Entrustment of 20,000
Because Qiu Yuesheng's young apprentice was jealous of him, he secretly found a warlock to harm him.
The warlock saw Qiu Yuesheng's identity and cast a life-threatening curse to kill the evil spirits.
When Qiu Yuesheng was thrown out of the city by Commander He, he waited for an opportunity to break his illusion, preventing him from transforming into a human being for a short period of time.
As a result, Qiu Yuesheng, who was famous for a while, disappeared.
Looking at Qiu Yuesheng's leaving figure, Zhu Xiaozhou remembered the last question she asked Qiu Yuesheng, and Qiu Yuesheng's answer was still ringing in his ears.
Zhu Xiaozhou asked him, "You are already a cultivated vixen. Why can't you maintain your beauty and now you look like you are about to die?"
Qiu Yuesheng said that he narrowly escaped death in the subsequent battle and lost his vitality. Now his vitality has been scattered, leaving only a few days left to survive.
Zhu Xiaozhou sighed deeply.
A piece of jewelry, a piece of the past.
A woman's obsession in two lives, a fox that became a spirit - two lives of karma.
"Let me ask you a question." She looked at Boyuan, "If you were here at that time, would you be like him and become a human being to protect the land of China?"
"Do you know why it is so hard to see spirits, immortals and demons who have cultivated for more than a hundred years now?" Bai Yuan said lightly, "The gods in ancient times were all born to cope with disasters. When disasters come, they should stand in the way.
The defense between disaster and mortals. And those spirits, immortals and demons have their own cultivation to protect themselves. When the entire land of China fell, they transformed into countless ordinary warriors and used their mortal bodies to block disasters, even if they were destroyed in ashes."
He added, "Just like Qiu Yuesheng, who has thousands of years of cultivation protection, but after the war, his energy is scattered and he cannot protect himself. There are not so many spirits in this world."
If he were here, there should be no exception.
"...Zhu Xiaozhou! Zhu Xiaozhou!" Ding Manman rushed in frantically.
For the first time, he appeared in front of Zhu Xiaozhou with an unkempt appearance, completely leaving his past image behind.
"Ding Manman?"
Zhu Xiaozhou's mood quickly recovered in a short period of time. How could he not welcome the "God of Wealth" who came to his door?!
He conveniently put away the key left by Qiu Yuesheng.
The sadness just now is real, and the excitement at this moment is also real.
"Ouch, what are you doing-"
"It's too late, it's too late, I'm looking for your help!" Ding Manman was overly frightened and extremely nervous.
She clutched one of Zhu Xiaozhou's arms and looked around in horror, as if something was following her.
"What's wrong with you?" Zhu Xiaozhou wondered.
Ding Manman is usually a very arrogant person, why is she so scared?
"There is a ghost! There is a ghost... She is coming, she is going to, she is going to kill us -" Ding Manman shouted.
She pinched Zhu Xiaozhou's arm and it really hurt.
Bai Yuan saw Zhu Xiaozhou grimacing in pain but unable to escape, and was about to take action.
"No need!"
Zhu Xiaozhou quickly shouted to stop. If he killed the "God of Wealth", she wouldn't know where she would cry.
"You, who are you talking to?" Ding Manman didn't believe Zhu Xiaozhou's story before. She always felt that Zhu Xiaozhou was just pretending to be a fool - cheating money. But now, she was also frightened, "Here, is
Isn’t there something?”
She couldn't see Bai Yuan, so she thought the ghost chasing her had also followed her to Zhu Xiaozhou's pawn shop.
"No! What can this mean?" Zhu Xiaozhou waved her hand towards Bai Yuan, signaling him not to come over, lest she frighten her "God of Wealth".
Bai Yuan glared at her with great disgust, clearly seeing through her little thoughts, and turned around and disappeared into the pawn shop.
Zhu Xiaozhou had no time to ask him where he was going and how to find him next time.
He was pinched by Ding Manman in front of him and came back to his senses, "Come on, come on, there is nothing here - can you still not believe me? Tell me what is going on, I will definitely have a solution. That's it.
..."
He rubbed his fingers and asked for money.
Ding Manman had just been coaxed to sit down by her, and held her finger, "As long as you can solve it, I will give you another two thousand!"
two thousand......
This was last time, when they said the construction site was haunted and it was Lu Jing's ghost who set a trap to cause Zhu Xiaozhou to fall from the fourth floor - the price they offered.
Later, another two hundred was added, and there was a red envelope of twenty.
Zhu Xiaozhou naturally guessed that it was Lu Jing who had entangled them.
"Two thousand, that's the price last time, this time - twenty thousand!"
"Twenty thousand?!"
No matter how scared Ding Manman was, she never lost her mind. When she heard the price offered by Zhu Xiaozhou, she almost jumped up.
She said, "You are too dark."
"I said 20,000 is 20,000. If it's less than 20,000, you can hire someone else." Zhu Xiaozhou gestured with two fingers.
This was the price they paid for causing her to fall from the fourth floor and lose her life.
Although her life is far more than 20,000, she only needs 20,000.
"......good!!!"
After hesitation, Ding Manman gritted her teeth and agreed.
As long as the problem can be solved, twenty thousand is twenty thousand, but she proposed to let Zhu Xiaozhou return to the scene with her before transferring the money.
Who knows how they survived the three days when Zhu Xiaozhou disappeared!
Zhao Yan was the first to find something wrong.
After returning from the construction site, I stayed behind closed doors.
According to his family, he locked himself in his room, turned on the air conditioner to 30 degrees Celsius, wore clothes, and was wrapped in several layers of quilts - he was still cold from the cold and his face turned blue.
After Zhao Yan, Gao Yang also frequently "bumped into ghosts".
The front foot was still laughing at Zhao Yan for being timid, and the back foot finished playing ball with his friends. When he looked up in the bathroom, he saw the ghost behind him.
After that, wherever there was a mirror, he could see the ghost standing behind him!
Not just mirrors, but anything that can reflect light is the same——
At first I was angry, then I was too scared to go out.
He also locked himself in the room and blocked all reflective objects.
Later, when his mother came into the room to bring him food, he saw the ghost behind him in his mother's pupils, and he actually wanted to stab his mother's eyeballs with a fork.
He was so crazy that he frightened his family members, who rushed him to the hospital for treatment.
Then there is Ding Manman.
Ding Manman said that she could always hear Lu Jing's voice in her ears, as if Lu Jing was standing next to her.
But she couldn't see anything.
All she could hear was Lu Jing calling her again and again...
She's going crazy too.
Sometimes when she just fell asleep, she heard Lu Jing say in her ear - why do you do this to me.
She was so scared that she didn't dare to sleep.
Zhu Xiaozhou was not surprised. Before she fell that day, she turned around and saw "Lu Jing" standing behind them.
But at that moment, she also saw something scarier than ghosts——
human heart.
Zhu Xiaozhou has always known that Ding Manman and others hate her.
But when Ding Manman and the others came to her and said they needed her help to confirm whether there was really Lu Jing's ghost at the construction site, she agreed.
Zhu Xiaozhou is not a silly person, she just follows the principle of "taking people's money and eliminating disasters with them".
She could imagine how miserable they had been tortured by "Lu Jing" these past few days.
But their misfortune could not heal the hurt she had suffered.
