Otherworldly Merchant
Chapter 142: The Old Man Resurrected from Death
I haven't taken over another business in the next six months.
Autumn and winter are off-season, some shady creatures also have the habit of ‘hibernating', so there won't be much movement, so I'm also left idle.
But the night dragon was always on my mind, even though the T-shirt man told me that everything depended on opportunity, how could I sit down? It's a cure for Chu Chu and the old witch doctor.
So when I'm okay on weekdays, I drive to mountain villages all over the place to pick up the wind.
Yin Xinyue was always with me, and now we are officially lovers, but we have not met her parents.
Every time I ask to see her parents, she finds all kinds of excuses and doesn't know what she thinks.
Probably worried her parents won't see me as a little antique dealer?
I think it's time for me to pack myself up too. I can't stay in a shabby shop all the time. That's how I really gave in to Yin Xinyue.
Since the night dragon belongs to Jibao, it is definitely not that easy to find. Six months down, I asked a lot, I didn't have any idea...
My efforts, Li Mazi and Chu Chu are also in the eyes. Chu Chu even sneaked up on me and told me not to look for any night dragons. She knew that night dragons were precious. I'm afraid even if I did, I wouldn't necessarily be able to buy them.
I just laughed and told her not to think about it, just take care of the injury.
Finally, it's the Lunar Winter Moon. Almost New Year's Eve, I got a valuable clue!
Just in a remote countryside in Sichuan, a rare thing happened.
After being buried, an old man suddenly came back to life, and in his mouth there was somehow an extra 'Evening Pearl’. The pearls are crystal clear during the day and will glow at night, which is very rare.
The villagers say the pearls were used by the Mercy Buddha this evening.
I can hear the news a thousand miles away, thanks to the neighbors in the antique street, there was a Sichuan boss who came over to my store and bullshit.
When I heard this news, I was excited. I thought this luminous night pearl was probably related to the night dragon. Maybe that thing is the night dragon?
So I asked for the address, and I told Li Mazi that I was going to go to that place.
Li Mazi was very excited. He immediately drove to get ready to go. Chu Chu alone was bored at home and said he wanted to go out with us to meet the world.
Li Mazi was worried that she was alone at home, and she promised to do so now.
The old witch doctor had already returned to Baisha Village, and she still enjoyed that peaceful and unexpected life.
We were wearing too thick when we went south and the hotter the weather, by the time Sichuan, Li Mazi and I had only one pair of jeans and short sleeves left.
Never thought the weather here would be so nice, it seems that none of the down jackets we brought will be useful.
When we got to our destination, Li Mazi and I first placed Yin Xinyue and Chu Chu in a hotel in town, and we walked to that village.
It's not that we don't want to drive, it's because the village is stuck in a big ditch and only motorcycles are accessible.
I thought riding a motorcycle on such steep mountain roads was too dangerous, so I simply chose to walk.
Sichuan Mountain, the road we took was quite painful, and we almost slipped off the cliff on several occasions. I wonder how much pain the people who opened the road took!
But in the end, we reached our destination: Qingshan Village.
By the time we reached Qingshan Village, the sky had completely darkened. I pulled out my phone and looked at it and found that the damn phone had no signal at all. The idea of giving Ping An to Yin Xin Yue News had to be put on hold.
As soon as we entered the village, we began to ask the old man with the Evening Pearl: Liu Fuguo.
However, as soon as Liu Fuguo was mentioned, each of the villagers showed contempt and disdain, telling us that Liu Fuguo had already moved out of the village.
I wonder why we're moving.
The villagers waved coldly: "Who are you? What's Liu Fuguo doing? I don't know. Just go. ”
Several people were asked in succession, their attitudes were not cold or hot, and they did not seem to be willing to deal with us.
I know that Liu Fuguo must have done something heavenly - angry.
The villagers have blatantly expelled us, and will continue to ask questions. I'm afraid they will offend everyone! But I was so unwilling to leave. After all, I came all the way down the mountain.
What should I do with Li Mazi?
Li Mazi laughed at this. After that, he pulled a lollipop out of his pocket like a trick and dragged me to the entrance of the village to wait.
Soon after, a bunch of little boys jumped in happily from outside the village, looking like they'd just left school.
Li Mazi jumped out immediately and stopped the little boys from going. A strange look on his face said: "Kids, uncle here is a lollipop, do you want to eat it? ”
And the little boy thieves didn't fall for it, but a bunch of bees ran away.
Li Mazi was angry and looked behind the escape of the little boys, angrily trying to kill them. I laughed bitterly, saying that kids are not so easy to cheat these days, teachers are instilling the idea of not talking to strangers every day, they want your lollipop.
Lee and I had to find somewhere to hide.
Since the villagers are reluctant to tell us, we can only investigate on our own initiative...
A buried old man is resurrected from the dead. There must be some strange things going on here. As long as we touch the grapevine, we can definitely find out something.
I decided to go to the grave at the end of the village and take a spin to see which grave the 'dead and resurrected old man' was coming from.
Soon we found where the villagers were buried, on a hill. And the way it's buried here is completely different from the North. They all dug up a cave in the mountains, put the coffin in, plugged it with a few flat large stones, and erected a small headstone, which looked much more sophisticated than the north.
This mountain seems to be a professional burial, so there's plenty of dense numbness on the head, and we can only examine it one by one.
But before half-checking, it was completely dark and I couldn't reach for five fingers.
After walking around the cemetery in the middle of the night, there was nothing good to be done, so I asked Li Mazi to leave and come back here tomorrow to take a look.
And as we walked back, a strange wind suddenly broke out behind us.
I sniffed hard and was shocked to find this strange breeze and smelled like a corpse!
In principle, this shouldn't happen. After all, these coffins are sealed in caves, and we just checked them once and found no new bodies to bury.
Then where did the smell come from?
But I didn't really think about it. It's not unusual for me to comfort myself with the possibility that it might be a dead cat or a dead dog.
But then I heard this whispering wind, and I heard a whispering footsteps. Follow not slowly behind us.
And I looked back, and I actually found a figure about 50 meters from us, walking down the steps, a little bit down the hill.
In the middle of the night, how could there be anyone in the mountains? Li Mazi's a little scared. Ask me if this is a scam.
I shook my head hastily, and even a scam, the body could not have been drilled out of a cave sealed in layers.
Let's keep walking and ignore the people behind us. The man walked, stopped and stopped, but kept a certain distance from us.
After a while, Li Mazi finally pressed her inner fear and turned her head and shouted to the person: “Hey, who are you and what are you doing behind us? ”
