Chapter 42: For a broken phone, he lost his entire underworld house.
"Waaaaah..."
When Yun Shu opened her eyes, she saw King Xuan of Zhou squatting by her bedside crying, his face now covered in bruises and swelling.
Yun Shu's forehead twitched, and she casually picked up a paper effigy from beside the bed and threw it at him.
She's sleeping!
This guy came over to her bedside and started howling like a banshee, who was he trying to scare to death!
"ah!"
King Xuan of Zhou stopped crying, and a loud shout came, "Girl, you have to help me! My white jade tablet is missing again! I can't even go back to the underworld now. If I go back and encounter those servants, they'll beat me up again, waaaaaah!"
Yun Shu rubbed her temples and asked, "Did you steal that phone from another ghost?"
King Xuan of Zhou was standing at the door of her room, about to knock, when he suddenly stopped. "How did you know?" he asked.
Yun Shu was speechless. "The moment I saw your phone, I knew you'd stolen it. You deserved to lose your jade tablet this time!"
That ghost was a thief in his past life. You brought him to ambush him and steal his phone, so naturally he'll steal your most valuable possession!
Upon hearing this, King Xuan of Zhou didn't bother knocking anymore. He simply floated in, grabbed Yun Shu's leg, and burst into tears.
"Waaaaah, it's not that I've never used a cell phone before. I saw him wandering alone on the road, holding the latest iPhone 99, so I... I asked him to lend it to me for a few days!"
As King Xuan of Zhou spoke, he felt Yun Shu's cold gaze and became increasingly guilty.
"open."
King Xuan of Zhou quickly released his grip and asked Yun Shu, feeling wronged, "What should we do now? At worst, I'll return the phone to him and make him return the white jade tablet!"
"..."
Yun Shu looked at him without saying a word, her eyes showing some impatience, clearly indicating that she didn't really want to help.
King Xuan of Zhou had no choice but to say, "I haven't even delivered a message to King Yama for you yet! If I can't find the white jade tablet, I won't be qualified to see King Yama, and I won't be able to live in that super big house in the underworld. If I go in, those servants will beat me up!"
Yun Shu glanced at him. "Haven't seen you for a few days, and you can speak English now?"
"No problem at all, no problem at all."
Zhou Xuan gave her an awkward smile, then pulled out a handful of ghost money from his pocket. "Please help me out, this money is for you!"
"All right."
For the sake of these ghost money coins, Yun Shu decided to help King Zhou Xuan. Although ghost money is for the dead, it was useful for a divination master like her, since she could also make deals with ghosts.
Yun Shu got up and drew a talisman. "The white jade tablet is yours, and it has your aura on it. I'm using the talisman to send him a message, indicating that you are willing to return the phone and make some compensation to him, so that he can return the white jade tablet."
"Alright, alright!" King Xuan of Zhou nodded repeatedly. "At worst, I'll compensate him with some money, and I'll never rob other ghosts again!"
Yun Shu's talisman burned and turned into a golden origami crane, which flew out the window.
"The message has been sent, and you'll get a reply soon. Please wait patiently."
Yun Shu said to King Xuan of Zhou.
Then she went to organize the paper offerings, which she would burn for some customers today.
During this time, King Xuan of Zhou hung upside down on the window of Yun Shu's house, eagerly waiting for the return of the thousand paper cranes that would carry his message.
Yun Shu burned some things, and finally there was some empty space in the house.
She ordered takeout, intending to have dinner first, but then she saw King Xuan of Zhou hanging on her window like a hanged ghost, and her lips twitched.
How did this guy become the emperor?
While waiting for her takeout, Yun Shu messaged Liu Zizheng to ask about her sister's situation.
After seven hours of emergency treatment, Liu Zizheng's sister is finally out of danger, but she still needs to be observed in the intensive care unit for a period of time.
Liu Zizheng was very grateful to Yun Shu. If it weren't for Yun Shu's help, his sister might have died. He even wanted to send Yun Shu a thank-you fee, but Yun Shu refused.
Yun Shu: [Take good care of your sister. You are an upright person, and you will be blessed.]
Liu Zizheng: [Yun Shu, thank you again! I plan to appear in court to testify against my parents for attempted murder. I will take good care of my sister and grandmother from now on!]
Thinking of Master Huang who gave her the talisman water, Yun Shu asked, "Do you have Master Huang's contact information?"
Liu Zizheng: [Yes, I got it from my parents' friends. I even gave Master Huang's contact information to the police, but we can't get in touch with him now.]
Yun Shu's eyes darkened when she saw the message.
Master Huang, that charlatan, has probably gotten wind of it and gone into hiding.
The Liu couple dared to murder their own daughter, and Master Huang also bears a great deal of responsibility. Moreover, when Yun Shu last met Master Huang, she discovered that he had other murders on his hands.
This guy doesn't know anything about feng shui or metaphysics; he just uses his smooth talk to fool people. He's done countless unethical things, and hopefully the police can find him soon.
Just as I was thinking this, King Xuan of Zhou shouted from the window, "Girl, your origami cranes are back!"
Yun Shu came to the window, raised her hand slightly, and the origami crane landed on the back of her hand.
The origami crane opened its mouth and a voice came out, "You want me to return this treasure? No way! He dared to steal my latest iPhone 99, he'll pay the price! This treasure is even better than the latest iPhone 99, even ghosts would want to kneel down when they see me!"
I even encountered a ghost today who saw this white jade tablet and said that I own a 2,000-square-meter mansion in the underworld, and I can move in just by showing me this tablet! It's filled with servants and concubines; living there is like being an emperor!
"You dare, you brat!"
King Xuan of Zhou was furious.
The voice from the origami crane continued to come, "Hahahaha, tell that Zhou Emperor that the things are not going to be returned to him. I'm going to live in his big house, use his entourage, and sleep with his women, hahahahahahahaha!"
"Ugh! You're infuriating me!"
King Xuan of Zhou was furious, his eyes blazing with rage, and he wanted to overturn the table in Yun Shu's house.
But Yun Shu glanced over casually, and he still put the table down, angrily pounding the wall beside him, "This is outrageous! This is absolutely outrageous!"
I only stole his broken phone, and he actually wanted to take over my big house, use my personal guard, and sleep with my concubines!
"Aaaaah! This is intolerable! I'm going to fight this bastard right now!"
Yun Shu chuckled, "Your jade tablet is in his hands, and all your servants will obey his orders. What makes you think you can fight him? With your not-so-bright brain?"
King Xuan of Zhou: "..."
How could you, a living, breathing person with lips warm to thirty-six degrees, utter such chilling words!
