"True and false, false and true..." Situ He chewed these words.
A flash of light, like lightning, created a tsunami in his mind.
"Yes!" He said in his heart: "The soul is nothingness...the soul is invisible..."
"True and false, false and true, the transition is endless!"
Then, he knew that he had opened a great door.
The body, which had been stagnant for a long time, showed signs of loosening again.
"If I can figure out the secret of this soul..." he thought: "After the Governor, I will be the one!"
As for Situ He, there is no longer any doubt.
The monster in this bookstore must be some extremely powerful ancient god.
He may have just awakened from a long and eternal sleep.
Or perhaps, he sensed signs of spiritual energy recovery and returned from the end of the endless galaxy.
In short, this is a powerful existence that cannot be measured or predicted.
As a result, Situ He's demeanor and tone quietly changed.,
For the first time, he couldn't help but use honorifics: "Your Excellency..." He asked: "I wonder if you are willing to part with me this precious book?"
……………………
"Of course!" Lingpingan ignored the language problem of the guest in front of him, because in his opinion, this might be the other party's habit.
After all, the Federation is so big.
There are all kinds of people.
I think back then, when I graduated from Lingpingan University, there were still a group of guys who missed the previous dynasty. They wore the clothes and clothes of the previous dynasty and swaggered around the market, almost raising the banner of "anti-Xia Fu Ming".
Then, they were suppressed by counselors and teachers.
I almost couldn't even get my diploma.
Therefore, Lingpingan answered quite quickly. He rubbed his hands and said excitedly: "Chenghui, two hundred and forty-five yuan!"
He even took out two playing cards from the drawer and put them on the counter: "This store supports payment by scanning the QR code with souvenirs and Qianbao by scanning the QR code!"
"I also support IOUs and loans!"
“Among them, you can enjoy a 9.20% discount on souvenir payment today, and you can also participate in the ‘Today’s Payment Star’ event and have a chance to win a free grand prize!”
However, Lingpingan found that the guest opposite him suddenly looked strange after seeing the two playing cards he took out.
With no other choice, Lingpingan had no choice but to ask softly: "What's wrong? Is the guest in trouble?"
"The price is negotiable..." In order to complete this transaction, Lingpingan had no integrity and no sense of profiteers, so he immediately compromised on the price.
But little did he know that when he took out the two playing cards.
In Situ He's eyes, what he saw and heard was beyond recognition.
……………………
"Chenghui, two hundred and forty-five yuan..."
While Situ He was still surprised by these words and thinking about what the price offered by this ancient god meant.
Two extremely terrifying playing cards were brought out from the drawer by the ancient god.
On a piece of playing card, dots of blood and tears dripped from it drop by drop.
Wrong souls roared around it.
A vortex that was definitely not good at first glance emerged from the cards.
On the other card, there were also twisted monster shadows floating on it. The evil and terrifying whispers were whispered in the ears of these twisted monsters and reached Situ He's ears, making him frightened.
Scared, shocked.
"This store supports payment by scanning the QR code with souvenirs and payment by scanning the QR code with Qianbao!" the weirdo in front of him said softly.
"I also support IOUs and loans!"
“Among them, you can enjoy a 9.20% discount on souvenir payment today, and you can also participate in the ‘Today’s Payment Star’ event and have a chance to win a free grand prize!”
What seemed like normal things turned out to be unrecognizable in front of the two terrifying and evil playing cards that were handed to me.
Situ He had a premonition.
If he really takes out his mobile phone and scans the QR code to pay.
Then, what is deducted will definitely not be the balance in his bank card.
But your own soul and lifespan.
Moreover, once his soul and life span are not enough to pay.
The cost will be passed on to future generations.
This is not impossible!
Among the Yin merchants in the Northern and Southern Zhou Dynasties, there were some extraordinary people who could awaken some spells that could curse their descendants.
Some of the aliens from Fusang and Nanyang are even born masters of the blood curse.
If the ancient god in front of him curses other people's descendants... I'm afraid it will be a taboo-level unexplainable curse!
Thinking of this, Situ He swallowed hard. His hands trembled and he wanted to ask: "Can I not buy it?"
But as soon as this thought came to his mind, Situ He felt as if something was wrapped around his neck, slowly tightening little by little.
Then he knew that this was a black shop.
Just step into this place and look at the owner's stuff.
You have to buy it whether you want it or not.
The shop owner will buy and sell by force.
But what can he do?
The shop is cheating customers, and no one can solve it since ancient times.
Just when Situ He didn't know what to do.
From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the kitten squatting on the ancient god's shoulder.
He finally remembered.
All gods like sacrifices.
And he happened to be carrying an underworld weapon that might be enough to be used as a sacrifice.
After thinking about it again and again, Situ He gritted his teeth, took off the thing from his waist, and then handed it over cautiously.
"Sir, can I exchange this for you?" He asked nervously: "Because I really can't afford it now..."
Does he dare to pay for things like soul and lifespan?
Don't dare!
What's more, it may bring disaster to future generations!
…………………………………………
"Another one without money?" Lingpingan was about to vomit blood.
It was not easy to make a deal.
The result is great!
I didn’t bring any money!
It’s okay if a little girl goes out without any money.
You are a big man, but you don't look like someone who is short of money.
Why don't you bring any money?
And it doesn’t matter if you don’t bring cash.
Do you still have this mere two hundred yuan in your mobile wallet?
Did he want to prostitute me for nothing?
Or, this is a poor man with tracheitis who has been married for decades. In the eyes of outsiders, it seems that he has a stable job, a happy family, and two children. In fact, even buying a pack of cigarettes requires his wife’s approval. His mobile phone and change in his pocket are always only for taking a taxi to work.
and money for breakfast.
Lingpingan was puzzled.
Until, he saw the object handed over by the other party and was attracted by it.
It was a bronze vessel as big as a fist.
Judging from the appearance, it looks like a bronze animal-shaped vessel.
From the outside, it seems to have a vicissitudes of life and an ancient flavor.
Cultural relics?
Lingpingan frowned, then smiled: "Is this from last week?"
The guest nodded: "Your Excellency has a sharp eye!"
"It is indeed from Shang and Zhou Dynasty!"
Lingpingan laughed.
He picked up the bronze beast vessel and held it in front of his eyes to examine it.
To be honest, there is really nothing to say about this craftsmanship.
It has a human face and a sheep body, and its head is symmetrical from left to right, with a big mouth in the middle. It is lifelike and looks like the crystallization of modern industry.
"It must be Taotie!" Lingpingan weighed it: "Not bad!"
This thing is of no use to him.
But my aunt likes it!
Lingpingan is worried about how to deal with the aunt who came back from the Northern Zhou Dynasty for two to three months or half a year!
it's good now!
Having this handicraft should make my aunt happy and let her know her filial piety - my aunt really likes things from the Shang, Zhou and Pre-Qin dynasties. Even if it is a handicraft, as long as it suits her appetite, she will be very happy.
Thinking of this, Lingpingan nodded and said: "That's it, I will suffer a little loss and switch with you, the guest!"
really!
From Lingpingan's point of view, he must have suffered a loss!
After all, although his copy of "The Unsolved Mysteries of the World" is certainly not as expensive as 245 yuan, he could still sell it for 180 yuan or 170 yuan if he bargained for it.
But the bronze handicrafts made by this kind of machine can only be sold for 123 yuan at most in a handicraft store.
He suffered a huge loss!
But it’s hard to buy happiness with money.
Especially my aunt is happy!
Then he threw the things in his hands into the drawer.
……………………
Situ He watched helplessly as Taotie, who even he could not surrender and could only control with the governor's seal, was like playing with a child's toy in the hands of the 'ancient god'.
He lowered his head deeply.
This Taotie was discovered in the tomb of the Emperor of the Western Zhou Dynasty.
It caused a sensation when it was first discovered.
Because, it is alive.
People don't know whether there was a great power in ancient times who melted a living Taotie cub into a bronze vessel, or whether the bronze vessel cast by the ancients turned into a Taotie baby after a long period of time in the wave of spiritual energy recovery.
.
In short, this thing is indeed alive.
Can eat and run.
His appetite is terrifying, and his strength is beyond imagination.
Within half an hour after it was discovered, it swallowed the entire tomb of Emperor Zhou and all the surrounding flowers, plants and trees.
Fortunately, the governor was in Chang'an at the time.
Therefore, timely action was taken to suppress it and no casualties were caused.
Nor did it eat the entire Guanzhong.
Although the Governor suppressed it, this thing remained unruly and grinning even in front of the Governor, and could only be sealed and restrained using secret methods.
However, now, this extremely arrogant Taotie, who is not even looked down upon by the governor, is as honest and docile as a domestic puppy in the hands of this ancient god.
and……
Situ He could clearly feel that Taotie was afraid, terrified.
Therefore, it didn't even dare to move.
With his eyes closed tightly, he was pretending to be dead just like a hedgehog encountering a natural enemy.
Therefore, Situ He no longer dared to stay here any longer.
He picked up the book in his hand and was about to say goodbye.
Then, he thought of a question and turned back to the ancient god at the counter: "Sir, I have one more request..."
"It's such a heavy fog outside..."
"I'd like to borrow a flashlight from you..."
……………………
Lingpingan looked at the customers in front of him.
He thought about it, considering that this business is all about steady flow, especially the bookstore business, which really depends on regular and repeat customers.
So, he nodded, took out a flashlight from the drawer, and handed it over.
Anyway, these flashlights aren't worth much.
Some time ago, he wholesaled them from a nearby shopping mall that was bankrupt and liquidated.
One hundred is only 300 yuan.
At that time, Lingpingan didn't think too much about it. He just bought it because it was cheap.
After buying it back, he realized that he would never be able to use up all these flashlights in his lifetime.
Now, giving it to guests is considered waste.
Situ He took the flashlight and let out a sigh of relief.
Then, he bowed to the ancient god in front of him: "Sir, I wonder if I can still come to you in the future?"
"Of course!" Lingpingan said happily: "Just remember to bring money next time!"
"I make money from business!" he said seriously.
Although, Lingpingan actually doesn't care about money at all.
Just like when he wrote online novels for several years, the total royalties were barely enough to cover his daily expenses.
But he doesn't care, he just likes it.
Just like this bookstore, it has never made any money.
Obviously if it were resold, it could be sold for at least tens of millions.
But he just wants to live here and run the business alone.
Anyway, he is not short of money!
But the problem is, if you never make any money, it will look bad!
It is also difficult to explain to my aunt.
What if my aunt feels that he is not good at business and forces him to go to work?
"Got it!" Situ He nodded, then he thought about it and cautiously tried: "Then can I bring my friends?"
Lingpingan was extremely happy and nodded on the spot: "Okay!"
"Bring more!"
If you open the door for business, will there be too few customers?
Thinking about it in Lingpingan, the more, the better.
Of course……
Don’t come too often, let alone come all the time.
Well, three or five customers a day are enough.
In the rest of the time, he has to fish and play games, code words and write novels!
……………………
Situ He swallowed hard.
At this moment, he completely gave up the idea of inviting the governor to come after returning home.
This ancient god...
No fear.
Considering what he had just done, how could Situ He dare to let the governor set foot here easily.
In case, even the governor will be controlled by it.
Isn’t it time to turn over this day!?
He could only stand up and bow again, then opened the door and walked out.
