Could it be that my Dharma Eyes cultivation is not good enough?
Wang Fu held the gold ingot in his palm and looked at it with squinted eyes, but could not see anything strange about it.
This is a pure gold ingot. The surface is slightly rough, with casting lines and pores remaining.
Under the observation of the Dharma Eye, the inside and outside of the Yuanbao are consistent, and it is definitely not an illusion made of paper.
The only thing wrong is that there are wisps of black energy surrounding Yuanbao, accumulating strong resentment that can kill people.
"Calibration object!"
Wang Fu can be sure that Chunhu'er picked up the ingot and took it home. The ghost found him through the ingot and then took his life.
Jin Yuanbao is the key, involving serious cause and effect.
"Is it really a money man?"
At this moment, Wang Fu was shaken in his heart. His original guess seemed unfeasible.
"Hurry up and leave!"
Suddenly someone whispered in his ear, "He's dead. Neighbors will find out soon, and the government officials are coming."
Wang Fu turned around suddenly and saw a young man standing on the wall, waving to him.
Fortunately, he is alive.
"Don't forget to bring the ingot."
…
After leaving Brother Chun's house, the two came to an archway, stood with their backs against wooden pillars, and communicated with each other.
"Are you also here to investigate the matter of demanding life money?"
The young man was an acquaintance, so he introduced himself first, "My name is Xie Shiju. I am also a practitioner and a worshiper of the Five Emperors."
"What a coincidence, I also worship the Five Emperors, I'm Wang Fu."
When he heard that he was a fellow-minded person, the young man Xie Shiju became enthusiastic.
Wang Fu was a little curious, "Brother Xie is a local?"
This is Xiejiazhuang, and the other person’s surname is Xie. I really don’t blame him for the association.
"We had a relationship with our ancestors, but later we moved out and we no longer have any contact with each other."
Xie Shiju waved his hand, "I recently heard that there are evil spirits here, so I came here to check."
Evil ghost?
"It's definitely an evil spirit."
Although there is only one word difference between evil ghost and evil ghost, the degree of terror is vastly different.
"good!"
Xie Shiju said firmly, "It's not a vicious ghost, otherwise Xiejiazhuang would have already become a ghost land."
"Brother Wang, let me borrow your gold ingot for use!"
Xie Shiju squatted on the pedestal under the archway and took out a leather bag with cinnabar on the surface.
"Look, together with what you got tonight, there are six ingots in total."
On the wooden base, six ingots are displayed side by side, three are heavy gold ingots, and three are paper ingots, light and weightless, as if they were blown away by the wind.
"this?"
Wang Fu observed with his Dharma eyes and saw resentment lingering around the Yuanbao. Because there were so many of them, the resentment even condensed into a black cloud floating in the sky.
However, it is half made of real gold and half made of paper, and the breaths are also different.
"I watched you talking to that old liar during the day and didn't bother you. It wasn't until night that I realized that you were really capable."
Xie Shiju nodded, "Although the old liar was cautious, his apprentice failed to live up to his expectations and secretly hid the life money, causing the lives of four people."
"Look, there are actually two types of money asking for life."
Xie Shiju pointed to the real gold ingot and said, "This is money."
"This is an illusion made of paper. It's okay to deceive ordinary people, but it can't escape the eyes of you and me."
“Two ghosts harm people together, but outsiders don’t know the inside story and think there is only one.
hiss!
Wang Fu has a headache. The situation in Xiejiazhuang is far more complicated than the records of the Taoist temple. Two ghosts coexist and use money as a lure to kill people.
"Brother Xie, I'm just here. I don't have a clue. I haven't asked for advice yet?"
"Easy to say!"
Xie Shiju explained the purpose of his visit, "I have been investigating for a long time and am ready to take action. I am missing a companion."
"You also know that in today's world, most of the people are just old liars who are just trying to make ends meet. It's rare to see people who are truly cultivated."
He raised his head and looked in a certain direction, "The largest local sect is the Yunyang Taoist Temple, but those Niubi people worship the Three Pure Ones, and they can't deal with me."
In fact, there are people who worship the Five Emperors, right in front of you!
Wang Fu held back his words and said nothing.
"By the way, what is your destiny?"
Wang Fu was stunned for a moment, then said bravely, "I was born in Yeluzi, and I can only learn how to breathe, but I can't even talk about the law of life?"
"Why!"
Xie Shiju had a pity expression on his face and patted Wang Fu on the shoulder without saying anything.
It seems... I feel sympathy.
"Brother, I see that you also have the second level of cultivation. Your strength is not bad. You will definitely have a chance."
"Let's work together to destroy the two ghosts here, maybe we can gain something."
reward?
Wang Fu's eyes widened. Is it possible that he could still earn income from killing ghosts?
After all, I am a junior brother, so I can only ask for advice humbly, do more and listen less to avoid exposing my secrets.
"Brother Xie, what should we do?"
Xie Shiju raised his hand, "These two evil ghosts are extremely cunning. With the help of ingots and paper bundles, they are spread everywhere. Their true bodies cannot be found, so naturally they cannot be eliminated."
"I have been in Xiejiazhuang for so long, tracking murder cases, collecting ingots tied with paper, and putting them into this sealed bag."
As he spoke, he patted the leather bag in his hand and said, "There are rune seals on it, which can subdue evil spirits. Put the ingot in it and weaken the power of the evil ghost itself."
"When the other party can't hold it any longer, he will come to you and me to fight to the death. That's when the opportunity comes."
After Wang Fu listened and pondered, he finally agreed, "I'll join."
…
After daybreak, Chun Guer's body was found. The official sent people to examine it, and finally came to the conclusion that he was frightened to death.
It was not a murder, so the case was closed and the money was returned to the official treasury.
Death is like a light going out. Except for the coolies drinking tea on the street who have more to talk about, nothing changes.
"For fortune-telling and fortune-telling, everything is accurate."
"The iron mouth is cut straight, and no refund is allowed!"
Wang Fu holds a Bagua chart and walks along the street. Hehe, it is now open for business.
If you want to move around in Xiejiazhuang, you must hide your identity. After all, this is not a big city, and streetwalkers are too blinky, especially outsiders wandering around, and it is extremely easy to attract attention.
So, Wang Fu picked up his old job, found a hexagram flag, and started cheering along the street.
Where is Xie Shiju?
Well!
"Please, please do it!"
This young aspiring practitioner, dressed in rags, was begging for help from the crack in the door, stretching out his hands desperately.
Shame on you!
Wang Fu turned away and must not let others know that they knew each other.
A dignified practitioner has no skills and has to disguise himself as a beggar in order to move freely on the street.
At this moment, Wang Fu actually felt a little grateful to the old ghost for teaching him these seemingly useless skills, but in fact he could gain a foothold in the world.
"Come here and do the math for me."
A fat businessman with big ears was in a good mood. When he saw Wang Fu coming and going, he waved to him.
Can it be bad?
Chunhuer, who often blackmailed him, was frightened to death last night and was so happy that he fell from the sky.
The businessman had just returned from burning incense in the temple and picked up a gold ingot on the way. He thought that he had been in good fortune recently and needed to find an expert to check it out.
Uh! The master seems to be a little younger, but it doesn't matter.
"Little Taoist priest, where is your master?"
Wang Fu was stunned, and touched his smooth chin, "Don't look at Xiaodao's young age, he has already graduated from the army, and his future and marriage are all considered."
"Okay, tell me, what good things happened recently?"
Wang Fu looked at it for a moment, then shook his head and said something that made the businessman furious.
"There are no good things, but a disaster is about to happen."
