Chapter 173 He robbed you of your wealth, and he also robbed you of your suffering.
When Yun Shu examined Wang Hui's face, she not only saw that he was in danger of bloodshed and death, but also that his karma had dissipated.
According to the rules of the underworld, how a person fares in their next life after death is closely related to their current life; this is what is known as cause and effect.
If you commit evil deeds in this life, even if you don't receive immediate retribution, the consequences will carry over to your next life. If the evil deeds are too severe, you will be directly cast into hell to be punished.
The fact that Wang Hui's karma has dissipated means that he will not be sent to hell, nor will he have a next life, and he will not even have the chance to be reborn as an animal.
There is basically only one situation that can cause cause and effect to dissipate: the soul is scattered.
In other words, Wang Hui's impending doom will not only lead to his violent death, but will also cause his soul to be scattered and never be able to reincarnate again!
"If someone is born on a Yin year, Yin month, or Yin day, and encounters a ghost that comes to their door, they will suffer a fatal calamity and their soul will be scattered. Could it be that an evil ghost has eaten their soul?"
Yun Shu said thoughtfully.
Her guess was not without reason. Although boys have more yang energy than girls, boys born in yin years, yin months, and yin days will not attract the attention of ghosts and monsters, but there may be some unexpected situations.
Just as Yun Shu was thinking this, she heard Wang Hui's voice coming from the live broadcast room.
“Brothers, recently someone online claimed that my ancestral jade Buddha was lost by him, and even said that he had a purchase record and demanded that I return the jade Buddha pendant. I have never seen such a shameless person. This jade Buddha even has the Wang family's inscription on it, and he dares to impersonate me.”
Yun Shu looked at the comments in the live stream and saw that a netizen had sent a long string of comments.
"It was originally mine. I had the carving done by a craftsman specifically for me because my surname is Wang. The jade Buddha is made from top-quality jadeite that I found while gambling on rough stones overseas."
The raw stone alone costs two million. You, a country bumpkin, can't even afford two million to buy a raw stone, and you have the nerve to say this thing is yours?
Wang Hui was furious when he saw this comment. "I've worn this jade Buddha pendant since I was a child. Before it was passed down to me, my dad wore it. How did it become yours?"
"You can even make up lies like 'jade gambling abroad'? Who would spend two million to buy a worthless stone to open? I think you're the bumpkin. You think you can rip me off just because my ancestral pendant is a good piece?"
Although I don't know how you stole my collection, I have a lot of evidence to prove that this jade Buddha pendant is mine. I have the raw stone purchase record and the authorization contract for the carving by the master craftsman. I have already posted them on my homepage. You can check them yourselves.
Furthermore, the sculptor I found is a renowned master sculptor in China. Those with connections can personally inquire with Master Li Guofang.
Yun Shu's interest in gossip was piqued, so she clicked into this netizen's profile and found pictures of raw stone purchase records and authorization contracts, as well as a photo of himself holding a jade Buddha pendant. The jade Buddha pendant in his hand was exactly the same as Wang Hui's.
It seems this is the true owner of the jade Buddha pendant, and a wealthy man at that. It's likely that many of his family's collections were stolen by the Ghost Eye.
As expected.
When Yun Shu returned to the live stream, she saw that the netizen was sending comments again, asking Wang Hui to return all his collection, including the jade Buddha pendant.
Yun Shu had seen all of the items he listed in the old woman's grave, which should still be near the local police station.
The most impressive thing is that not long after this netizen questioned Wang Hui, the domestic carving master Li Guofang had his studio release a video of the carving process, and in the video, he revealed the customer's name, which was this netizen's real name.
Wang Hui's live stream chat exploded instantly.
[Wang Hui, tell me honestly, is this really your family heirloom? The original owner is the founder of one of the top 100 companies in China, with assets worth tens of billions. Spending two million to buy a rough stone to open is nothing to him! Even Master Li Guofang has come forward to vouch for him!]
[I remember when Yun Shu and Wang Hui made their bet, she said that if Wang Hui took something he shouldn't have, it would attract something evil!]
[Before the evil spirits arrived, the real culprit showed up! This guy even dared to make a bet with Yun Shu, now I ask you, aren't you embarrassed!]
[Wang Hui has been slandering Yun Shu and Lu Shijing as tomb raiders. Could it be that he himself is a tomb raider, and he's crying wolf?]
[Of course! Otherwise, how could a tycoon with assets worth tens of billions end up in Wang Hui's hands?]
[Li Guofang said the carving fee for this jade Buddha pendant alone was 20 million yuan. Wang Hui has probably never seen so much money in his life!]
After seeing the comments, Wang Hui also watched the video posted by Master Li Guofang. After watching it, his face turned extremely ugly.
When he returned to the live stream, he found everyone mocking him, and some even said they would call the police to arrest him. His mind raced as he tried to figure out how to defend himself.
He stole the things from the tomb because he thought they were burial objects belonging to the dead. He never expected the rightful owner to come looking for him!
Wang Hui was silent for a while before he said, "Anyway, this jade Buddha pendant of mine was passed down from my father. I don't know why you have the exact same one. Maybe that Master Li Guofang saw my family's ancestral jade pendant by chance and then imitated the shape of my family's jade Buddha when he was carving it."
Upon seeing his reply, Yun Shu's lips twitched, speechless once again.
Does this guy think everyone's an idiot?
That jade Buddha pendant not only has the exact same jade material and texture, but also the same material for the accessories and the cord.
Besides, Li Guofang is a master; even if he were to imitate someone, how could he possibly make a perfect copy? Wouldn't that be blatantly ruining his own reputation?
Not only Yun Shu thought so, but netizens also thought so, and the barrage of comments directly cursed Wang Hui like a dog.
Do you know why Li Guofang is a master? Because of his sculpting skills and design aesthetics! He disdains imitating others; these days, it's others imitating him!
[I'm speechless. This is the first time I've seen Wang Hui like this; he can come up with such an absurd excuse.]
Wang Hui then said, "So what if he's a master? You don't even know him. Who knows if he's plagiarized others behind the scenes? This pendant is unique to our family. Maybe he copied it because nobody recognizes it!"
Besides, if you insist on accusing me of stealing, then release evidence of my theft, such as CCTV footage or something. Don't make baseless accusations if you don't have proof!
The true owner of the jade Buddha was named Wang Jianye. When he saw Wang Hui say this, he frowned slightly.
This is exactly what's troubling him.
He checked the surveillance cameras at his home and on the nearby streets, but he didn't see Wang Hui appear at all, nor did he see any suspicious people enter his house.
However, the safe in the house was empty; all the collectibles inside were gone, and the total value of those collectibles was several hundred million!
He had already reported it to the police, but because the police found nothing in the surveillance footage, they were unable to find the thief until he accidentally saw Wang Hui's live stream.
No matter how Wang Hui tried to deny it, he could confirm that it was indeed the jade Buddha pendant from his collection. The character "王" (Wang) engraved on the back of the pendant was exactly the same as the one he had carved!
Seeing Wang Hui's arrogant attitude, Wang Jianye was about to send a comment saying that he would bring the police to find him and make him wait to go to jail.
Before he could finish typing, he received a private message from a popular streamer.
Wang Jianye clicked on it and found that the person with the streamer's tag was named Yun Shu. He remembered that this woman was a celebrity and he would occasionally see her making paper offerings on live stream.
Yun Shu: [Mr. Wang, your other lost items are at the Chunyang Road Police Station. You can go there with the evidence to retrieve them. But don't take back the jade Buddha pendant that Wang Hui has. It's better to lose money to avoid disaster. He robbed you of your money, but he also brought you misfortune; his death is imminent.]
If Yun Shu hadn't had a previous conflict with Wang Hui and hadn't revealed the location of other lost items, Wang Jianye would have thought she was Wang Hui's accomplice.
After a moment's thought, Wang Jianye asked, "Why did Miss Yun say that?"
Yun Shu countered with a question: "Before you lost those things, did you buy a pair of walnuts?"
He replied, "Yes, is there a problem?"
Yun Shu continued typing, "[You bought those walnuts from an old lady when you passed by Chunyang Road last night. But after you brought them home, the walnuts suddenly disappeared.]"
Wang Jianye stared in shock at Yun Shu's reply.
How could she know so much?
Wang Jianye was so shocked he didn't know how to reply to Yun Shu, but Yun Shu sent another message: "You're probably wondering how I knew. It's because my friend also bought walnuts when he passed by Chunyang Road."
Not long after he bought the walnuts, things started disappearing from his house; valuables were all gone. Recently, he and his daughter have even been haunted by ghosts.
Wang Jianye's expression turned somewhat strange. "Miss Yun, do you mean the ghost stole something and is now trying to harm people? That's outrageous; I really find it hard to believe."
Although I am quite wealthy and can afford to disregard the tens of millions spent on the jade Buddha pendant, I really like that little trinket, and its symbolism is auspicious; I must get it back. Besides, Wang Hui is a terrible person; I will never give it to him.
Clearly, he doesn't believe in ghosts stealing things.
When Yun Shu saw his reply, she couldn't help but sigh, but she understood his perspective.
Wang Hui's actions would make anyone feel indignant, and they would definitely try every means to get their things back.
But that thing is too unlucky!
Yun Shu glanced at Wang Hui's live stream and suddenly noticed that wisps of yin energy were slowly seeping out from the crack in the door behind Wang Hui.
She paused slightly, then sent Wang Jianye another message: "Look at that door in Wang Hui's livestream room. The reaper has arrived. That jade Buddha pendant is unlucky; it'll soon become a cursed object."
When Wang Jianye received the news, he felt that Yun Shu was acting strangely, as if she had mental problems.
Driven by curiosity, he still went to Wang Hui's live stream room and glanced at the door of his room.
Knock knock knock.
Before he could figure out what was wrong, he heard a knock on Wang Hui's live stream door. Wang Hui got up to open the door.
