Chapter 475 Conditions
They didn't necessarily want Qi Yao to die, but their grave was dug up and the coffin lid was pried open. They were really angry and wanted Qi Yao to pay the price.
Qi Yao had been harassed by them for so many days, and he had suffered all the hardships and looked haggard. Seeing this, they felt a little relieved.
In addition, there is such a powerful Taoist priest helping Qi Yao, and they cannot defeat the Taoist priest, so they might as well state their conditions wisely, so that they can gain some advantage.
If they wait until the Heavenly Master takes action, they won't even have the chance to propose conditions.
Fu Yang listened to their words and nodded.
"Okay, if you have any requests, tell me."
The ghost on the left thought for a moment and said:
"Before I was buried, my wife placed a jade pendant in the coffin for me as a burial companion. The jade pendant was my wife's most beloved possession. With it, it felt like my wife was with me."
"This tomb robber not only robbed my tomb, he also stole my wife's jade pendant. This jade pendant has been with me for hundreds of years. With it, it's like my wife is still by my side. If I want to let him go, he must restore my tomb, repair my coffin, return everything he stole, and most importantly, give me my wife's jade pendant."
He didn't know how many years he had been dead. He only knew that he was in his prime when he died and had a very good relationship with his wife.
When he was about to die, his wife was heartbroken and wished she could go with him.
But at that time, their son had just been born and needed careful care.
His wife told him to wait for her and that she would come to find him when their son grew up. Before that, the jade pendant would stay with him on her behalf.
So, he has been waiting.
Fu Yang conveyed his words to Qi Yao.
Upon hearing this, Qi Yao agreed without thinking.
"Okay, I can do everything. Whether it's the tomb or the coffin, I will definitely repair them. As for the jade pendant, although I have already sold it, I will redeem it no matter how much it costs."
During these days, Qi Yao has realized that apart from life and death, everything else is trivial.
For the sake of health, he is willing to spend all his wealth.
As he said that, he made a phone call.
"Old friend, there's something I have to trouble you with. I asked you to help sell the jade pendant a few days ago. Can you buy it back for me? You can spend a little more money."
I was a little surprised to hear his voice on the other end of the phone.
"Hey, it's Lao Qi. You're still alive. No, you can still speak."
Qi Yao laughed.
"Thanks to you, I'm still here. Please take what I just said to heart and help me get my things back as soon as possible."
There were two awkward laughs from the other end of the phone.
"Hahaha okay, don't worry, I'll help you contact them now."
After hanging up the phone, Qi Yao couldn't help laughing.
It seems that many of his old friends thought he was dying, so they were so surprised when they received his call.
Fu Yang then looked at the ghost on Qi Yao's right and asked:
"What are your requests?"
The ghost on the right looks skinny and gloomy.
"Our family's requirements are not high."
"I spent most of my life in the palace. Before leaving, I redeemed the two ounces of precious flesh that was cut off from me and took it into my coffin before I died."
Qi Yao suddenly thought of something and looked a little embarrassed.
The ghost on the right continued:
"But, when this man dug a hole, he not only stole my treasured antiques, but he also stole the wooden box I used to store my treasures. Without those two ounces of flesh, I would be a crippled person, and I will die with regrets!"
The biggest regret in his life was that he was sold into the palace by his parents while he was alive, was castrated and became a eunuch, and died with an unhealthy body.
After he finished speaking, the ghost on his left looked at him sympathetically.
How pitiful, much more pitiful than myself.
The ghost on the right looked at Fu Yang and said:
"Master Tianshi, I only have one request. Ask him to return my treasure! Return it to me in the same condition as he took it away. If he can't do that, I will never let him go!"
He was a pitiful man when he was alive, and he was still a pitiful ghost after his death. He had never expected that after so many years of death, he would still suffer such a great disaster, his grave was dug up, and his treasures were stolen.
Fu Yang relayed his words to Qi Yao verbatim, and then added, "You dare to steal anything."
Qi Yao felt embarrassed at this moment, and then apologetic.
He clasped his hands together and bowed.
"I'm so sorry, I really am. I will definitely return the wooden box to you."
When he stole it, he really didn't know what was in the box. After all, a hundred years had passed, and it was no longer possible to tell what was in the box.
If he knew, he might not have stolen it.
Qi Yao thought for a moment and asked his son.
"Think about it, the other day I brought back a wooden box with hibiscus flowers. Look where I put it. I'm old now and I can't remember it right away."
Qi Xiao thought about it.
"I seem to have some impression."
"Is this the box you wanted to sell but couldn't find a suitable buyer?"
Qi Yao nodded.
"Yes, that one."
He remembered that because the price was not right, he did not sell it and took it home and kept it there.
Qi Xiao: "It seems to be in the warehouse, I'll go take a look."
After a while, Qi Xiao came out with a wooden box.
"Is this it?"
Qi Yao took the wooden box and was about to nod when he suddenly frowned.
"No, no, something is wrong."
He has been tomb raiding for half his life, and he can tell about 70% of the quality of something once he touches it.
Upon hearing this, Qi Xiao immediately leaned over to take a few glances.
He has been studying with Qi Yao since he was a child, and he also has some good eyesight.
"Dad, this thing seems fake."
Qi Yao nodded solemnly.
"You can see it, it's indeed a fake."
Seeing this, the ghost on Qi Yao's right immediately became anxious.
"You lost the wooden box that contained my treasure! I'm going to fight you!"
That is his dignity as a male ghost!
Qi Yao felt a piercing chill running down his right shoulder, and his face turned pale.
Fu Yang stretched out his hand and pointed at his right shoulder in the air.
"Don't get excited. Even if your wooden box is really lost, I can find it for you."
The ghost on the right, for Fu Yang's sake, said nothing and stopped moving.
Qi Yao also hurriedly said:
"Senior, please don't get excited. I will definitely be able to get the things back to you in their original condition."
Then, he said to Qi Xiao:
"During the time I was away seeing a doctor, who else besides you went into our storeroom?"
Someone must have sneaked into their house and replaced the original with something else.
This wooden box now concerns his life, and nothing must happen to it.
