Chapter 86: It Doesn’t Have to Be So Rich
Teng An's face was filled with sadness. This time, it was really his fault. He had not listened to Qin Qinsen's advice and had been slow to deal with the vase. Now that he had been caught, he could only blame himself for his bad luck.
"Isn't this the thin-bodied long-necked vase I bought?" Guo Jianjun used his extraordinary eyesight to recognize the porcelain that was broken into eight pieces on the ground.
"Yes, do you have a box with a tight lid?" Qin Qinsen looked around, trying to find a container to put the resentful woman in his hand.
"Yes, yes, yes. Do you think this is okay?"
The box is made of silver and engraved with gilded auspicious cloud patterns. It comes with an exquisite padlock, and the key is very small, only half the size of a fingernail.
Qin Qinsen was a little speechless, "No need to be so rich, an ordinary fresh-keeping box will do."
"No." Guo Xiaojun touched his nose and hesitated, "Is the takeout box of soy milk and fried dough sticks from this morning... okay?"
"Okay, okay, bring it here quickly."
"Okay."
After Guo Xiaojun walked away, Guo Jianjun approached calmly, his eyes fixed on the resentful woman.
This was his first close encounter with a monster, so he had to take a closer look.
Guo Jianjun has always known that some things in the world cannot be explained by science, but after serving in the army for many years, perhaps because he has enough righteousness in him, he has never encountered anything like this.
On the contrary, the Teng family was wealthy and powerful, with much more experience than him. He had even helped find many so-called orthodox Xuanmen families, but unfortunately, nothing came of it.
So much so that he felt regretful in his heart - when he knew that there was another side to the world, those mysterious things avoided him one after another, and refused to leave any clues.
Until he witnessed his son's abnormal behavior just now, the woman floating in the air, and the master who directed the yellow talisman to rotate in the air, the door to a new world opened for him.
"Master, what's with that vase?"
Qin Qinsen also felt strange at this point. Judging by Teng Su's behavior, this Uncle Guo must be a trustworthy acquaintance. Furthermore, he exuded a righteous and majestic aura that would frighten ghosts, and it was obvious at a glance that he was closely related to the military and police.
It stands to reason that insignificant monsters like the Wrathful Woman would consciously avoid people like them, but not only did she not avoid them, she even subtly influenced the thinking and actions of ordinary people because she stayed around them for too long.
Qin Qinsen tried to explain it in plain language. "It can be understood that... the vase was in the dormitory of the resentful woman, and she had a crush on Guo Xiaojun. Unfortunately, you didn't know there was something wrong with the vase and gave it to Teng An. As a result, the resentful woman, separated from her lover, became even more resentful, which affected Teng An."
And Teng Su. I won’t say the rest, lest someone get angry and embarrassed.
Guo Jianjun suddenly understood, "Oh—so the Teng family asked you, Master, to help slay the demons."
As he said this, he made a gesture of chopping someone with a knife.
Hearing this, Qin Qinsen felt terrible. Sure enough, a hand came over his shoulder, and Teng Su's eyes showed off without any disguise, "Uncle Guo, let me introduce you, this is my boyfriend, Qin Qinsen."
Qin Qinsen laughed dryly twice, and broke free from Teng Su's hand under the pretext of dealing with the resentful woman.
"Teng Su, have you informed your family?" Guo Jianjun asked the smug Teng Su as he watched the end of the master's monster-catching stunt. "Even though two men can get married these days, let's not talk about Xiao Qin for now. Just your family..."
The Teng and Guo families were old friends and knew each other well. Therefore, Teng Su didn't act like a boss in front of Guo Jianjun, but treated himself as a junior. "Don't worry, Uncle Guo. My parents gave me the opportunity to pursue someone during my recent vacation."
Otherwise, considering his workload at Teng Corporation, he would probably be alone for the rest of his life.
"No wonder." Guo Jianjun laughed out loud, not knowing what he was thinking. "Now we've caught up with him, and he's quite capable. You'd better hurry up and deal with those rumors out there, especially those about the Luo family."
Qin Qinsen, who was squeezing the resentful woman into a ball and stuffing it into his lunch box, immediately looked up when he heard the key words, "Luo?"
"Yes, my people noticed that the Luo family has been making small moves. It is said that the cooperation with the Teng family is about to fall through. Teng Su made a wrong decision and caused losses to the group, so he was dismissed. I don't know about your Teng family, but the grandsons of the Luo family are taking sides. They say that Old Teng is going to re-elect his successor. Now is a good time to make arrangements in advance."
Hearing this, not only Teng Su and Teng An, but even Guo Xiaojun laughed, "Everyone with a brain in the Luo family must be dead. How dare they frame Big Brother Teng?"
Qin Qinsen sealed the lunch box with talisman paper, walked to the broken porcelain pieces and squatted down.
"careful."
Seeing someone trying to pick up the porcelain piece with his bare hands, Teng Su hurriedly handed him a tissue.
"Oh, it's okay." Qin Qinsen said indifferently, but still took the tissue and wrapped it in his hand. He raised a slightly larger piece of debris and looked at it carefully, "There is something in the porcelain bottle."
Qin Qinsen brought the porcelain piece to the balcony and held it high towards the sun, "Look."
The vase was already thin and light, and now it was broken into pieces. Under the sunlight, strange patterns appeared on the inner wall.
Qin Qinsen took all the larger pieces of porcelain to the balcony and examined them carefully one by one. His face gradually darkened. "Gathering Yin Formation."
There was no need for further explanation. Everyone present knew from his expression that he was not a good person.
"Damn it! I knew the Luo family had bad intentions!" Guo Jianjun cursed angrily, "I bought this vase at the Luo family's charity auction. They said the proceeds were going to be donated to the elderly and lonely. Otherwise, how could I spend eight million on a leaky bottle!"
"water leakage?"
Qin Qinsen was so focused on exorcising demons and evil spirits that he didn't appreciate what the long-necked flask actually looked like, and therefore missed the detail of the water leakage.
"Yes, there is a small hollow circle at the bottom of the vase, with cloud patterns carved on it, which is very delicate." Guo Xiaojun gestured with regret on his face, obviously feeling very sad about the demise of the long-necked vase.
"Hmph, what a good plan." Qin Qinsen sneered, "The Yin Gathering Formation combined with the Flowing Wind Acupoint can not only increase the speed of Yin Qi gathering but also help the Resentful Woman cultivate. This time, Teng An was lucky. If he leaves it alone, within a year, the Resentful Woman will become a demon. Then it will not be as simple as love."
Teng An felt like he was praising himself, but he also felt something was wrong. After thinking for a long time, he could only utter, "What will happen if I become a demon?"
"A resentful woman becomes a demon. Maybe she takes a fancy to someone and kidnaps him to be her husband? She gets married in the day and eats the groom at night. It's like a physics exercise, chewing and eating."
Qin Qinsen's description was so vivid that it made everyone's hair stand on end.
"Damn Luo family, how dare they plot against me." Guo Jianjun was so angry that his eyes were bloodshot and he looked very scary.
Guo Xiaojun calmed down and said, "Dad, don't get excited. Be careful of high blood pressure. How can you be sure that you are the only one infected?"
After saying this, Guo Jianjun calmed down a bit. After a moment's thought, he said, "There were only fifteen items up for auction, all so-called antiques and collectibles. The other items, like the Four Treasures of the Study and jade ornaments, only had starting prices of 500,000 or 600,000 yuan. I figured our Guo family couldn't be that shabby, so I kept waiting until only two vases were left."
One is a blue and white thin-bodied long-necked vase that is broken into pieces in front of you, and the other is a white-glazed plum vase.
He failed to win the bid for the white-glazed plum vase from the old man of the Fang family. Seeing that only the long-necked vase was left, Guo Jianjun slapped his head and threw out eight million.
