"Absorb wealth?" Huang San and Li Feng looked at each other and looked at the old man suspiciously: "Can you still attract wealth?"
"I'm talking about wood, coffin wood, not wealth." The old man said with a smile.
"Coffin?!" Huang San and Li Feng's expressions changed slightly. Huang San said, "Don't tell me it's a dead person's coffin."
"Yes, it is a dead person's coffin, and it cannot be an ordinary dead person's coffin."
"Tsk, I've only heard that worshiping the God of Wealth can bring wealth, but I've never heard that sucking a dead person's coffin can bring wealth."
Huang San immediately said, but the twinkling eyes showed that his heart was not as firm as he said on the surface.
The old man explained with a smile.
"This material-absorbing gas is naturally not the ordinary coffin-sucking gas, but a type of Maoshan technique. It's just like raising ghosts. Have you heard of raising ghosts?"
Huang San and Li Feng looked at each other and nodded. They naturally knew about raising ghosts, especially among gamblers like them, it was widely spread.
"Whether raising ghosts or absorbing wealth energy, they are both a type of Maoshan technique. Raising ghosts uses the power of ghosts and gods to help you win in gambling, while absorbing material energy uses material energy to change your own wealth."
"However, both of these are considered evil arts and have certain dangers. Even if there are no unexpected dangers, it will shorten people's lives. So, do you dare?"
The old man looked at the two with a smile, but at this moment, somehow, the old man's obviously kind smile gave the couple a dangerous and cold feeling, as if they were being targeted.
Li Feng's expression flickered, and he was a little unsure about the truth or falsehood of the old man's words, but when he thought of the dead man's coffin, he felt a taboo in his heart, and turned to look at Huang Sandao.
"Forget it, husband, this kind of thing is too unlucky. Let's go back early."
Huang San's eyes also flickered, and he was a little moved in his heart, but he also had some taboos. Although he was a gambler, he still had some taboos about people dying in coffins, and he thought about it.
"Fuck your talent, I won't believe this. You damn fortune teller, don't even try to lie to me. Come on, wife, let's go home."
With a wave of his hand, Huang San stood up and pulled Li Feng away.
When the old man looked at Huang San and his wife leaving, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, revealing a strange smile.
.....................
After leaving the fortune-telling stall, Huang San and Li Feng went straight to their homes.
Not long after, I came to the downstairs of a wooden house in a narrow and dark alley. As soon as I got downstairs, I heard two voices coming from upstairs.
There was a whimpering sound from a child and an angry sound from an old woman.
"Damn it, Huang Laosan and Li Feng must be avoiding me on purpose, these two bastards..."
In the room, there was an old woman who looked to be in her fifties or sixties, with an ugly face and a somewhat angry expression.
Coming out of the corner of the door, a little boy who looked seven or eight years old with a thin body and a haggard face, who looked like he had been malnourished for a long time, was wiping his tears with tears in his eyes.
The old woman was the landlord of the house, and the little boy was Huang Biying, the son of Huang San and Li Feng.
Huang San and Li Feng have not paid their rent for more than three months. The old woman doesn't know how many times she has come here, but Huang San and Li Feng obviously avoid her on purpose and come by themselves every time.
He was not at home all the time, leaving only Huang Biying. To be honest, the old woman had even had the idea of renting out the family more than once.
But looking at Huang Biying curled up in the corner, the old woman couldn't help but feel soft.
The child, who was eight or nine years old, was alone every time she came, looking so thin and malnourished that it really made her feel soft.
"Well, it's really hard on you to have such a father and mother in the stall. Okay, I won't chase you away this time, but you can tell your parents later and I will give them three more days. If it takes three more days,
If they can't pay a penny within days, don't blame me for driving them away mercilessly."
In the end, looking at Huang Biying who was curled up in the corner and wiping tears, the old woman couldn't help but soften her heart again and said.
When Huang Biying heard this, he wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeves and spoke repeatedly.
"Thank you Granny Li, thank you Granny Li. When my parents come back tonight, I will definitely tell them and ask them to rent the house to you as soon as possible. Thank you Granny Li..."
The old woman's surname is Li.
"Oh, such a sensible child, why did he end up with such a father and mother?"
Seeing Huang Biying's sensible look, the old woman couldn't help but sigh, then she said nothing more, turned around and left.
"It's that damn old lady from the landlord, hide now, hide."
Huang San and Li Feng, who had been eavesdropping on the conversation upstairs, saw the old woman coming out and immediately hid secretly to the side.
After the landlord had gone away and was sure to leave, Huang San and Li Feng walked out of the darkness and returned to the house.
"Father, mother!"
Seeing his parents coming back, Huang Biying's face instantly showed joy. He wiped away the tears on his face and stood up from the corner, walking quickly to the two of them.
"Did that damn old lady bully you?"
Li Feng looked at Huang Biying's eyes full of tears and said.
"No, I'm just pretending." Huang Biying suddenly grinned when he heard this, stretched out his hand to wipe away the tears on his face and the corners of his eyes, and said with a smile as if he was taking credit: "I just lied to that damn old woman.
, how can I make her soften her heart if she doesn't pretend to be pitiful? How about it, dad and mom, I'll do a good job."
If the old woman from before had not left yet, she would have been so angry when she saw this sight. She would never have thought that an eight or nine-year-old child could be so scheming and know how to pretend to be pitiful to gain sympathy. Those pitiful looks before were all gone.
It's just an act.
"You brat, you're pretty smart, aren't you?"
Li Feng immediately laughed and cursed upon hearing this, Huang Laosan also slapped Huang Biying on the head and his expression improved.
"Yes, you are so smart at such a young age. You are worthy of me, Huang Laosan. Next time that damn old woman comes to collect rent, you can continue to act pitiful like this."
Huang Biying also grinned when he heard this, and then looked at his parents' hands. His parents' hands were empty. Huang Biying's face changed slightly and he looked at Li Fengdao.
"Mom, I'm hungry."
............
It was night, in a rented house, Huang San and Li Feng were lying on the bed but couldn't fall asleep.
All that came to mind were the words of the old fortune teller from before.
Inspired by the material!
Will you win every bet?
Although there was a rational voice in the mind telling the couple not to believe it and not to touch this thing, the couple chose to leave at first.
But for gamblers who are really almost broke, there is nothing they can't do.
After lying on the bed for a while, Huang San got up first and put on his clothes and shoes.
"Should I go find the fortune teller?"
"You really want to go?"
Li Feng sat up from the bed and looked at Huang San.
Huangshan's face flickered and he struggled for a moment, then gritted his teeth and spoke as if he had made some kind of determination.
"We are already so poor, so there is nothing to be afraid of. Instead of living in poverty like this for the rest of my life, I would rather use my life to gain wealth for a while."
Li Feng gritted his teeth when he heard this. Thinking of the current day, his heart was filled with anger.
"I'll go with you too."
Immediately, the couple quickly stood up and put on their boots and clothes. After more than ten minutes, they returned to the entrance of the street and alley again.
"You two, meet again."
The old man was still sitting there with the stall set up. When he saw Huang San and Li Feng arriving, he smiled instantly and said, as if he had expected that the couple would come back.
"You know we'll come back again?"
Li Feng's face was slightly condensed, and she looked at the old man and said.
The old man smiled when he heard this, but did not answer.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense, Master, we are here to ask you how to breathe coffin gas."
Huang San said impatiently and sat down in front of the old man.
"You tell us where we can inhale coffin gas and how to inhale it. If it really works, by the time we and we are prosperous, your benefits will definitely be indispensable."
When the old man heard this, he immediately raised his lips and smiled.
