Looking at Lao Bai's regretful look, I couldn't help teasing him, "Since you like this wooden building so much, why not just pay for it. Anyway, people in your line of work are not short of money.
And I don’t think there will be many people trying to grab this building from you. If you go to Lu Changqing and discuss it carefully, he will definitely sell it to you at a good price.”
Lao Bai pouted, "Although I feel sorry for this wooden building, I'm not stupid. They say this wooden building is haunted. Why should I buy it? Do I want to live on my own? Living with a ghost child not long ago scared me.
It's a shame. I don't want to stage another drama of a ghost relationship. And if the wooden building has been well preserved over the years, it will indeed be worth a lot of money, but it is a pity that no one has lived here for a long time.
, antiques do not mean that the older they are, the better. They also need to be maintained from time to time. But if you look at this wooden building, it has become disfigured by the wind and sun for so many years. It has no value at all. I
Why buy it?”
In fact, I was just talking casually, but I didn't expect Lao Bai to read his business experience to me in a serious manner.
Then the three of us walked into the wooden building together.
"Creak..."
Because no one has been here for a long time, when we opened the door and walked in, dust immediately started flying.
We all choked heavily, and even though we covered ourselves, we still kept sneezing.
"This wooden building has become like this. Let alone humans, I don't think even ghosts would come here!" Loach complained.
"There are a total of three floors here. Each of us is responsible for searching each floor. If we find nothing, we will leave here as soon as possible!"
"Okay, if that's the case, Dongfang, you go to the third floor to search, I'll search on the second floor, Lao Bai, just stay on the first floor." Nilu quickly assigned the floors that each of us needed to be responsible for.
.
"Why am I on the third floor?" I couldn't help but ask.
"Hehe..." Loach touched his nose, "Because according to my experience over the years, the dangers in a building are often at the top. You are the only one among the three of us who is proficient in Maoshan Taoism.
Of course I will send you to the most dangerous place."
I licked my lips, thinking that Loach's little calculation was quite loud.
But since everything has been allocated, and I also think that what Loach said makes sense, I'll go to the third floor.
"Do you still have the yellow talisman I gave you last time with you?" Before going upstairs, I asked because I was worried about the safety of Loach and Lao Bai.
Lao Bai and Ni Loach respectively took out the yellow talisman I gave them last time and said, "It's right here."
I felt relieved when I saw that the yellow talismans of Lao Bai and Ni Loach were still there.
Immediately, Loach and I walked upstairs.
I walked directly to the third floor. There were several rooms on the third floor. In order not to waste time, I immediately started looking for them.
In order to gain something, I searched very carefully, and I didn't miss any inconspicuous corner.
But even though I searched very hard, I still found nothing after a lot of work.
The third floor of the wooden building is empty, and there is nothing worthy of our attention.
"Dongfang..." Come and take a look, I found something strange.
Just when I was disappointed because I didn't find anything valuable, the excited voice of the loach suddenly came from downstairs.
I was overjoyed. There was joy and shock in Loach's voice. He must have made some important discovery.
I immediately went downstairs and ran towards the second floor.
Lao Bai and I almost bumped into each other at the entrance to the second floor.
"Dongfang, Lao Bai, come here quickly and take a look. What did I find?"
After hearing the sound of the loach, Lao Bai and I looked at each other and ran over immediately.
We found Loach in a room on the second floor. The furnishings in this room were nothing special compared to the rooms I had found before, but a row of cabinets against the wall caught my attention.
After the loach saw us, he could not restrain his inner excitement and was overflowing with joy.
"Loach, look at your excited look, what did you find?" I asked.
"Hehe..." Loach smiled proudly, and then he pointed to the row of cabinets, "That's it."
"Fuck!" Lao Bai couldn't help but swore, "Loach, can you still do it? You just discovered these things after a long time! Isn't this just a row of cabinets? What's all the fuss about?"
Lao Bai curled his lips, obviously very disinterested in Lao Bai's findings.
"Old Bai, I see that you are old, not young anymore. I didn't expect that you are still so impatient. Can't you calm down a little?" Loach said with regret, putting his hands behind his back.
Seeing Loach like this, I complained directly to him, "Okay, Loach, stop showing off. If you want to stay here for a while, then just keep wasting your time!"
Loach stuck out his tongue and said, "There is no sense of humor at all."
Then he turned around and opened the row of cabinets.
Only then did Lao Bai and I see what he was proud of. The cabinet was filled with black jars, but the jars were all blocked. We had no way of knowing what was inside the jars.
.
I stepped forward and looked at these black jars carefully. These jars were very strange in shape and much larger than ordinary jars. Especially the mouth of the jar, its area was two or three times that of ordinary jars.
"Good boy! What is in this that requires such a big jar?" Lao Bai gently stroked the black jar and marveled.
"Dongfang, should we open these jars and take a look?" He turned to me and asked.
If it were me in the past, I would have opened these jars and looked at them without any hesitation.
But since I became a Taoist priest in Maoshan, I have matured a lot compared to the impulsive me back then.
These jars must have been placed here intentionally by someone to prevent others from discovering them.
The dangers in front of you are not the most terrifying. What is truly terrifying are the invisible dangers.
We don't know what's in this jar, so if we open it rashly, we'll be taking a huge risk.
But the curiosity in my heart was too strong, so I finally took out a piece of white cloth from my body. I tore the piece of white cloth into three halves. I took one half myself and gave the other two halves to Loach and Lao Bai.
Then I took out a bottle of mineral water from my body and soaked the white cloths in our hands with water.
