Meanwhile, on the other side.
After leaving Ji's house, Li Shu took a taxi to the agreed place with Chen Bin.
Chen Bin spotted the girl walking in the crowd and raised his arm to wave, "Here!"
Hearing the voice, Li Shu raised her eyes and glanced at him. When she got closer, she said, "Xiao Chen, I'm bothering you again."
Chen Bin quickly shook his hand and said with a smile, "It's not a big deal. There's an ancient street nearby. I asked around and they have the yellow talisman paper and cinnabar you want. It only takes a few minutes to walk there."
Li Shu nodded, "Okay, let's go."
Soon the two of them walked to the ancient street.
There were quaint shops on both sides of the bluestone road, and many people set up stalls in the open space and started selling their goods.
But they are all antiques and some strange things.
Of course, there are also fortune-telling stalls in such places.
To be honest, this was Chen Bin's first time to come to this ancient street. Although he shuttled through the streets and alleys delivering takeout, it seemed that he had never received a takeout order from this ancient street.
Moreover, the stall owners on the roadside are either sleeping or squatting in groups of three or two, smoking. They don't seem to worry at all about whether their goods can be sold. It's really strange.
Li Shu walked to the door of a shop and stopped, looking inside. She saw at a glance that the shelves inside were filled with things that Taoists needed.
Chen Bin followed behind, looking around like a curious baby, and almost bumped into Li Shu who suddenly stopped. "Master Li?"
Li Shu raised her chin slightly and said, "Let's go in and take a look."
Chen Bin nodded, "Ah, okay."
After Li Shu entered the shop, she casually glanced around and said to the owner at the counter, "I want yellow paper and cinnabar."
The boss said wait a moment, and quickly took out a stack of yellow paper and cinnabar from the cabinet and placed it on the counter.
Li Shu took a look and said, "Okay, help me put them all together."
After paying, he left the store directly.
"Master Li, where are we going now?" Chen Bin asked.
Li Shu was about to say she wanted to go home when she heard a fierce voice, "It's him! Beat him to death!"
She looked in the direction of the sound and saw a group of bodyguards in black suddenly appear in front of the fortune-telling stall in front of her.
The person who spoke was a young man surrounded by bodyguards, with unconcealable anger on his handsome face.
The next second, the stall owner was held on the left and right by two of the bodyguards, unable to move.
The stall owner suppressed his fear, coughed dryly, his eyes flickered slightly, and said with a guilty conscience: "Master Qin, if you have something to say, please talk it over. We gentlemen use words, not fists."
"You f*cking cheated me out of a hundred thousand dollars, and you still want me to hold back?" Qin Can kicked over his stall, waved his hand, and ordered the bodyguard, "Hit him!"
Bodyguards: "Yes, Master."
Soon, the entire ancient street was filled with the wailing cries of the fortune-telling vendors.
The other stall owners and shop owners around were watching the fun, and no one stood up to stop it, as if they were used to this kind of thing.
Li Shu's eyes fell on Qin Can, she raised her eyebrows slightly, and then walked towards him.
"Master Li, don't go over there, it's very dangerous!" Chen Bin was shocked when he saw this, and quickly followed with a bag full of yellow paper and cinnabar in his hand.
Li Shu walked to Qin Can and stopped, tilting her head. "Handsome boy, would you like to buy a talisman?"
When Qin Can heard the words "buy talismans", his temples throbbed. He turned around with his hands on his hips and was about to rant, but when he saw Li Shu's face, his brain got stuck for a moment. He held it in for a long time, but couldn't utter a single word of the harsh words he wanted to curse.
Seeing him standing there speechless, Li Shu asked again, "Handsome boy, would you like to buy a talisman?"
Qin Can came back to his senses, his face showing an impatient expression, "Buy a talisman? I bought his talisman and was cheated out of 100,000!"
Li Shu raised her eyebrows and said, "My talisman is not only authentic but also cheap."
Qin Can waved his hands irritably, his eyes bloodshot, "I don't care if your talisman is real or fake, just get out of here quickly, or I won't be responsible if I accidentally hurt you."
Li Shu looked at his obviously sleep-deprived face and said slowly, "Have you been having the same dream lately? In your dream, you're also sleeping, but you can see a dark shadow staring at you. First it was outside the door, and now it's almost at your bedside."
Qin Can was stunned for a moment, then reacted and was horrified. His situation was exactly the same as what she said!
He just followed his friend's advice and came to this ancient street to see a master for what was going on. He happened to meet the fortune teller, who charged him 100,000 yuan for a talisman, but it turned out to be of no use at all.
Qin Can hesitated, "Is your talisman...really useful?"
Seeing that he didn't believe it, Chen Bin told him his experience, "It worked! Master Li's talisman saved my life!"
Qin Can only noticed him at this time. He looked him up and down, then looked at Li Shu, "Is this person a hired assassin?"
The corner of Li Shu's mouth twitched imperceptibly. She turned her head to look at Chen Bin beside her and asked, "Do you have the talisman with you?"
Chen Bin nodded, "Yes, I have them all with me."
"Give me one."
"Okay." Chen Bin immediately took out a talisman from his pocket and handed it to her.
Qin Can frowned as he looked at the white talisman paper that Li Shu took. He had been skeptical about Li Shu at first, but now he completely disbelieved her. "I say, can you, a swindler, have some professional ethics? Whose talisman paper is white?"
"Alright, stop wasting my time and get out of here, or I'll beat you up too!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Li Shu threw the talisman paper directly at his face.
Qin Can was stunned for a moment, his brows full of disbelief. The fatigue caused by lack of sleep and long-term mental tension disappeared in an instant, and he could feel that his whole body became refreshed.
Li Shu crossed her arms and raised her chin slightly. "How about it? Do you want to buy it?"
"Master, I'll buy it! I'll buy it no matter how much it costs!" Qin Can woke up as if from a dream, and was really convinced this time.
Li Shu reached out and took off the talisman paper on his face, quickly folded it into a triangle and placed it in his palm, "Carry this talisman with you, don't leave it."
She paused, then added, "I'll sell it to you for 10,000. Just transfer it to me via WeChat."
Chen Bin, who was standing by, suddenly looked a little strange when he heard this, and couldn't help sighing in his heart: I didn't expect Master Li to be so good to him, selling a talisman for ten thousand to others, but only one thousand to himself.
Qin Can clenched the amulet in his palm. Somehow, he suddenly felt a sense of security. "Okay, Master, let's add WeChat. I'll transfer it to you now!"
Li Shu hummed, took out her phone from her pocket, and opened the WeChat QR code. "Scan me."
