Chapter 011 Chapter 11

The security guard came very quickly. The man got frightened and stood up and ran in the opposite direction, throwing away the dagger in panic.

Yuan Jiaxuan was left alone at the scene, lying on the ground and crying.

The dagger fell not far away, and there was no blood on it, but the two people did not dare to neglect it. One called the emergency number and the other called the police.

The ambulance arrived first. After hearing the security guard's description on the phone, they thought that the victim was seriously injured and in danger. After they arrived, they found that the victim was not injured except for being frightened, which was really surprising.

The paramedics gave Yuan Jiaxuan a simple examination. She had no external injuries, but there were two large holes in her clothes. Judging from the marks, it was caused by the dagger.

The doctor who examined her was amazed, but still suggested that she go to the hospital for a detailed and comprehensive examination.

There are surveillance cameras in the underground garage. The police checked the surveillance and found that the murderer had been wandering in the garage before leaving work.

"Ms. Yuan, do you suspect anyone?"

Yuan Jiaxuan nodded: "Although he was wearing a mask, I saw the upper half of his face clearly. It was a colleague who just resigned from our company, Tong Xiaofeng."

The two policemen said they would pay special attention to this person.

After getting in the taxi, Yuan Jiaxuan opened her mobile phone with trembling hands. She originally wanted to tell her parents, but thought about it and gave up. She was safe now, and telling them would make them worry.

She planned to go to Gu Yanyi's super talk plaza to take a look.

Opening the comments, someone was already discussing it in full swing.

[I am a college student. Today, I happened to run into two classmates who were fighting. During the fight, they knocked me down the stairs. I thought I was going to die, but I was totally unharmed when I rolled down to the bottom. By the way, that staircase is in front of the main building, with more than a hundred steps. We have already called the police and reported the incident to the school. [Smile]]

[I am a doctor. A patient was diagnosed with cancer. He was so emotional that he wanted to die with anyone passing by. I happened to be that poor bug. But the pen in his hand broke after it pierced my neck, and he was immediately restrained by someone. It was really magical. I sincerely recommend that doctors carry a talisman.]

[I was in a car accident this morning when I went out...]

[I was hit by a falling object from more than 20 floors...]

[...After the accident, one corner of my talisman became black. 】

【Mine is completely blackened, I don't know if it can still be used. I was twisted under the wheel of a cement mixer truck today...]

[I just want to ask him when the next batch of talismans will be delivered. I want to buy one for my family. ]

Yuan Jiaxuan rubbed the blackened talisman on the edge of her hand and felt deeply grateful.

Fortunately, I bought Gu Yanyi's talisman impulsively.

Or maybe, the impulse at that time was not an impulse, but a mysterious force that stimulated my desire to survive, allowing me to take pictures of the talisman representing feudal superstition that I usually disdain?

When I went to work on the third day, my colleagues informed me of Tong Xiaofeng’s arrest.

The team members all knew about Yuan Jiaxuan's experience and came forward to care about her. The topic also started around Tong Xiaofeng.

Everyone then realized that Tong Xiaofeng was not only inexplicably confident in his work ability, but also liked to flirt with female colleagues, whether they were married or unmarried, single or in love.

Whenever he met a female colleague, he always liked to speak greasy and confident words.

"Well, you should just be patient with him. He borrowed 5,000 yuan from me." A male colleague said, "He said that his mother was sick at home and needed money urgently, so he wanted to borrow money to make ends meet."

"Ah? But he told me that his mother died a few years ago?"

"Yes, yes, and his father also passed away when he was in high school."

"But he told me that his father was doing business, and it was quite big, and he was always on business trips."

Everyone realized something was wrong.

No, why did he say different things to each person?

Did he believe that they would not gossip about him behind his back?

Thank you so much for his trust!

Yuan Jiaxuan smiled and shook her head, interrupting the gossip of the team members: "Okay, let's not talk about him. Have you changed the plan? Let's work harder. I am confident that we can get this order."

...

Time goes back to Gu Yanyi.

After he delivered the goods, he just felt tired.

This body has no cultivation and cannot be stored, so it can only be used in time.

This results in his body being hollowed out every time he casts a spell.

It seems that he has to find a suitable place for cultivation.

After pausing for a while, Gu Yanyi looked at the time. It was eleven o'clock in the evening, and it was almost time to set off.

He asked the ghost children to enter the Buddha amulet, and Black and White Impermanence and Yuan Cuilan followed him.

When they arrived at the intersection, Gu Yanyi stopped a taxi and reported the address.

The ghost market is not too far from here, and it didn't take long to get there.

There are many people coming to cool off in the summer evenings. Even at eleven o'clock, there are still many people walking around the market.

Fortunately, he put the ghost children into the Buddha amulets, otherwise the weaker souls would be directly scattered by the impact of so much yang energy.

Gu Yanyi walked along the way. Most of the items on the stalls were old, including picture books of dolls from thirty years ago, wooden furniture that his grandmother didn't want, and some old but ordinary workmanship ornaments.

Looking along the way, there was nothing special.

However, Yuan Cuilan showed a very nostalgic expression after seeing some small objects, and said to Gu Yanyi that maybe those ghost children would be willing to possess them.

Gu Yanyi looked at the pile of glass beads she pointed to.

...Well, this is the purpose of coming here anyway.

Finally, he bought the pile of glass beads for five yuan, estimated to be fifty in total.

Although there are not so many ghost children, maybe there will be more in the future?

The man and three ghosts continued to stroll around, passing by a stall surrounded by people, passers-by couldn't even see the things on the stall.

Gu Yan stopped and looked inside.

In the crowd, a middle-aged man was setting up a stall, all the things were placed in a snakeskin bag, squeezed into a pile, and not spread out.

Looking at the things inside, they were all copper products, and some pottery products.

Gu Yanyi could see the thin air of evil hanging over it.

It turned out to be funerary objects.

Maybe he could really find something here that would be suitable for the three ghosts to possess.

He was still looking, and the people around him had already automatically made way for Gu Yanyi, so that he could have a closer look.

Yuan Cuilan reminded him, "Mr. Gu, be careful, they might be agents."

Gu Yanyi squatted down in front of the stall and looked through the funerary objects in the snakeskin bag.

Bai Wuchang said, "These should be the ones that have been picked out. Generally, a cemetery with burial objects of this size must belong to a wealthy family. There must be gold and silver utensils in it. Those will be sold first. The remaining ones that cannot be sold at a high price will be sold on the market to see if one or two suckers can take them."

This method of cheating people is not much different from what he had seen in the world of cultivation.

Sure enough, although the world is different, human nature is the same.

He searched and found two small bronze figures at the bottom of the snakeskin bag.

The copper was already rusted and the workmanship of the small bronze figures was not good. It was estimated that it would cost a few hundred yuan at most.

Gu Yan asked, "Are these bronze figures for 500 yuan?"

The boss didn't look at him, but glanced behind Gu Yan.

A man squeezed into the crowd at the right time.

The man said to the stall owner happily, "Hey, boss, you're here again today! I've been waiting for you for many days! The handicrafts I bought from you last time, I sold them to a big boss who knows the goods, and he gave me this amount!"

The man slapped his hand and said proudly in a low voice, "Five, ten thousand."

The people around him took a breath of cold air and asked questions one after another.

"What did you buy? I want to buy one too!"

"Any big boss you know, introduce him to me. We can make money together."

"I met you last time and thought you were cheated. I didn't expect you to be an expert."

As they spoke, they glanced at Gu Yanyi, as if observing his reaction and adjusting their words.

Gu Yanyi just looked at them.

Seeing that Gu Yanyi didn't say anything, the man also started to look for something in the snakeskin bag. After searching for a while, he didn't seem to see anything satisfactory, so his eyes turned to the thing in Gu Yanyi's hand.

His eyes suddenly lit up, and after he got closer and carefully observed the bronze statues, he said, "Little brother, can you give me the pair of bronze statues in your hand?"

"Oh? Here."

The man took it happily, and seemed to reveal casually, "You don't know, I know a big boss, his favorite thing is to collect these vintage handicrafts, and he is generous, and can give at least ten thousand at a time.

"I can offer him at least twenty-five thousand for the pair of bronze statues in your hand!"

The man said complacently.

Before Gu Yanyi could say anything, the people around who were watching the excitement started to make a fuss.

"Then I'll pay one thousand for this pair of bronze statues!"

"I'll pay two thousand!"

"Three thousand! "

The man quickly raised his hand: "Hey, hey, hey, what are you guys making a fuss about? I'm familiar with the boss, and I can't forget the boss even if I make money! Boss, let's put it this way, I won't haggle with you, let's just give a flat price, two for five thousand!"

The boss waved his hand: "Go away, buying things should be based on first come first served, this guy was here first, you can't snatch him away, and why do I need five thousand? I'm also an honest businessman. Two bronze statues only cost three thousand. "

Everyone looked at Gu Yanyi, putting pressure on him intentionally or unintentionally.

If it were someone else who was a little more gullible, they might have really believed their lies and paid under pressure.

Some people saw how lively it was and gathered around to watch the show.

When a group of agents saw that Gu Yanyi didn't react, that person changed his tactics.

He took out his mobile phone and was about to scan the code, while saying to Gu Yanyi: "Little brother, I see that you really want this thing, so how about this: one for you and one for me, fifteen hundred each? If the big boss wants it, I'll help you sell it, and we'll split the money in half?"

Gu Yanyi: "You mean, I buy one, you help resell it, and you give me half of the money? "

The man chuckled and said, "Little brother, I know you and I are strangers, so it's understandable that you don't trust me, but I see that you have good vision, and I'm willing to help you make this money. Let's just consider it a good relationship."

"Of course, if you are worried, we can exchange phone numbers. My home is nearby, too. I'll take you to see the address later. You won't be afraid that I'll run away, right?"

Seeing that Gu Yanyi was still hesitating, the other party added fuel to the fire and said, "Think about it, 1,500 yuan for 10,000 yuan, and you'll make a net profit of 8,500 yuan. Isn't this faster than your work?"

Seeing that Gu Yanyi hesitated for a long time, he hardened his heart and said, "How about this, I'll pay 500 yuan for you, and you only need to pay 1,000 yuan. Even if I'm your brother, I'll recognize you as my younger brother. What do you think?"

Someone in the crowd made a noise: "They are so sincere, why don't you just agree?"

"Yes."

"Yes."

"It's not easy to make money. There are kind people who can help you make money. If you feel uneasy, just let me do it." Although the man said this, Gu Yan looked around and saw no one stood up to give the two thousand yuan.

Everyone was looking at Gu Yan.

Gu Yan sighed, shook his head slowly, and said, "I bought the bronze statue not to resell it, but for other uses."

The man raised his eyebrows and asked, "Little brother, do you like to collect it too?"

"Not to collect it, but to raise something."

The man frowned: "Raise what? Raise fish, as a fish tank decoration?"

Gu Yan said faintly: "Raise ghosts."
