Chapter 370: The Broker Lao Bai

Kuncheng is located around the magic capital, because of the economic radiation of the magic capital, the prosperity of these years is no less than that of ordinary second-tier cities, but the volume is just a little worse.

Now Kuncheng has not seen many old streets, but Nanjing Road still retains one, at the end of the street, there is a teahouse, ordinary and simple, it is because of this, failed to develop into a business teahouse, the guests are slim, the business is very poor, but the shopkeeper is never in a hurry, every day early to the teahouse, sweep the floor, wipe the table, make tea, listen to music, when there are no guests, lie on the rocking chair, shake the ancient pu fan, close your eyes and recuperate.

He can achieve this comfortable style, naturally not because of how good his heart is, but because he has long been free of food and drink, not to mention the property he has now, just a job in his secret can bring him huge profits.

He is a broker, in ancient times there was a trade called the tooth shop, and in modern times it is called an intermediary, but compared with ordinary housing agents and the like, his identity as a broker is more mysterious, he introduces people to antiques, whether it is stolen or just unearthed underground, he has channels to thread the needle and lead you, and even if you want something special, he can also find it for you.

This job of a broker has been passed to him for the third generation, and the time of the three generations has never had an accident in their hands, which is a golden sign in the road, so he has never lacked business, just regular customers are enough for him to eat, anyway, their business is not open for three years, and it has been open for three years.

"Boss, come to a Biluo Spring, three mature"

Today, seeing that there was no one, the shopkeeper was lying on the rocking chair again, but suddenly, he heard a shout, and suddenly opened his eyes, and the next moment, his eyes widened, because he saw a man like the fairy in the painting, standing in front of him, this dignity, even he had a feeling of suffocation for a while.

······

"Boss, come to a Biluo Spring, three mature"

Seeing the boss stunned for a moment, I immediately repeated a sentence, and scolded in my heart, what kind of ghost is the dead fat man, Biluochun still uses the share to calculate, and it is especially three mature, do you think it is a steak, fortunately, there is no one around, otherwise you will have to lose face and die.

"Biluochun can't do three mature, or fifty percent, how about it"

"No, it's going to be three ripe, and if you add a little more dragon well before the rain, it will be even better"

"The three generations of the Zhang family in Nancheng are fat, but they can't produce a character like you, dare to ask who your Excellency is"

After the strange code was finished, the shopkeeper was no longer shocked, and asked the source directly, he had seen three generations of the Zhang family, but there was really no one thin, not to mention such a dusty person, it was simply not like a person in the world.

"The three generations are all fat, ha, I'm smiling, I'm Zhang Yugang's best friend, if Boss Bai doesn't believe it, I can call Zhang Fatzi and ask him to talk to you"

"No need, I am a vital channel for the Zhang family, unless I have to or absolutely believe in people, the code will not tell others, call me Lao Bai, you look for me, what do you need?"

"Need a ghost or an evil creature down there"

"What, you say it again?"

"Fierce ghosts, incomparably ferocious, evil things, incomparably evil things, the most powerful evil things I want you to know"

"Young man, are you an evil man?"

"How can I see it?"

"Fierce ghosts and evil things are extraordinary, the right way will only get rid of them quickly, only the evil way, will they have another effect, Lao Bai I have been a broker for fifty years, it stands to reason that I shouldn't ask, but now the times have changed, if you don't make it clear, then I can't do anything"

"Lao Bai, do you think I look like an evil way?"

I pointed to myself and said, it's really not bragging, just our current temperament, saying that we are immortals is definitely believed by many people, but it is really not much to say that I am an evil way.

"Not like"

"Isn't that enough, Lao Bai told me sincerely, then I also sincerely replied, I will be useful for the fierce ghosts and evil things, but it will never be to harm the common people, and when I run out, I will immediately send them to the West Heaven Bliss to play, but the specific reason, it is inconvenient to say"

"Okay, I believe in you"

Lao Bai blurted out, after saying that, he himself was a little unconvinced, why did he believe the other party so easily, could it be because of a face?

"Thank you for your understanding, if nothing happens, I'll come back tomorrow"

I nodded, arched my hand, and turned away when he was sure, and I couldn't have too many personal contacts with the broker, otherwise people wouldn't be fair.

After leaving Lao Bai, I went to several other places, and they were all Zhang Fatzi's way here, to maintain a relationship, the gift that should be given, and the appearance that should be made, and I was carried out as Zhang Fatzi's agent, and these roads will still have to be taken by Zhang Fatzi himself in the future.

In the blink of an eye, a day passed, and I came to Lao Bai's side again, and Lao Bai looked more serious than yesterday.

"According to your request, I found one for you, do you know which kind of ghost is the most ferocious in this world?"

"The ghost who is wronged is naturally unjustly killed, and the ghost who dies with hatred is the most ferocious, and he doesn't swallow a breath, which is a disaster for the world"

"No, no, no, you are wrong, the so-called most poisonous is the human heart, this kind of ghost who died unjustly and hatefully, although it is fierce, but it is only limited, the most powerful should be the cultivator who takes the initiative to seek death"

"I don't understand practitioners who take the initiative to seek death."

"Of course you don't understand, because you are still young, you are in the prime of life, you are in the prime of your youth, you haven't felt the desperate feeling of death coming, the great horror between life and death, how many people in this world can break it"

"Ten is less than one, or even one hundred is less than one"

"That's right, cultivators are also people, they are people, most people will be afraid of death, especially the elderly, seeing their bodies weaken day by day, and the footsteps of death are getting closer and closer, this feeling will make them crazy, especially those who practice, they have been practicing for a lifetime, but what is the difference between them and ordinary people, birth, old age, sickness and death, it is still the same, if you recall the past of life, there are a few people who have not done a little bad thing, the eighteenth layer of hell is not good, and immortality, and there is no hope, so how to do it, regard death as life, then simply be a ghost···”

"So they take the initiative to seek death, and in order not to be taken away by black and white impermanence after death, they must try their best to improve their strength"

I added a sentence, and when I said this, I completely understood, in fact, this is another way of immortality, those cultivators are afraid of death, and they are even more afraid that they will suffer in the underworld for the bad things they have done before, so they take the initiative to seek death and refine themselves into evil ghosts, in order to survive in the world forever.

"That's right, I'm looking for you is such a person, he is an old man in the countryside, he has done his duty all his life, but he can't break through life and death, in the first five years of his life, he calculated how much time he still has, so he panicked all day, and finally, he decided to give it a go.

He made a mound for himself, he wanted to use the method of fake death to deceive the underworld, but failed, under this shadow, he embarked on the evil path, used the evil method, killed dozens of people, and used the resentment of these dead people to add to his body, cultivate his own anger, nourish the yin god, and get out of the body, and when he died, it was just a shell, he had already broken off the shell and ran away"

"Where is this man now?"

"In his hometown, the family of this person's behavior was all known, and after his death, his son demolished the land temple in the village, rebuilt the temple, and used the tanuki to exchange the prince's method, and his father's soul was erected in the statue of the land temple, and then deliberately spread rumors to make things happen, so that the villagers could worship, and now it has been seven or eight years since he got his incense, and the great disaster has been completed"

"Seven or eight years, no one has stopped it?"

"Yes, and at a terrible price, three mages alone died"

"Because of the living?"

"Yes, because of the living"

"It's tricky."

I sighed, although Lao Bai didn't say it, but I can guess that the son of the old Tao is definitely the local tyrant, I'm afraid the whole village is under his control, even if those mages are superb, they can beat the old Tao who has become a fierce ghost, can they beat the people of a village, this is not a small village in the mountains, there are only a few dozen families, and a few thousand people with a larger population are ordinary.

Under the control of these village tyrants, let alone what kind of mage, even if the police come, it's useless, think about how big a battle Hai Lufeng went out when he wanted to move them.

"It's because it's tricky, so no one has dared to touch it for a few years, so much so that now, many people have changed their tone of talk."

"Didn't you report it to the relevant authorities?"

"Hehe, count on them, cannonballs, cannonballs, not only murderous shells, but also sugar-coated shells"

"I took this matter, what price do I have to pay"

I immediately agreed, no matter what historical reasons led to this scourge, but for me, now is the best target to practice, if there is no challenge at all, then what kind of hand to practice.

"There is no need for any price, this village has begun to dominate one side since it was blessed by ghosts and gods, coercing several surrounding villages, and the people around dare not speak out, and if you are really a troublemaker, you can even pay you"

"Haha, it turns out that there is such a good thing, when can I go?"

I laughed and said, in fact, if you think about this kind of thing, you know, that village is protected by ancestral ghosts, so what are you afraid of, the surrounding villages have to be convinced if they don't accept it, they are all a group of low-level people, and suddenly there is such a position of power Isn't it appropriate to do a little bullying thing, several mages have been killed, and it is natural to do a little evil thing.

"Are you in such a hurry?"

"Well, time is precious, don't want to waste too much"

"Come back in the afternoon, you will come back in the afternoon, and there will be a special person to contact you at that time, and you will not talk about the conditions again?"

"It's not too much to solve my food, clothing, housing and transportation"

"Not too much, you can mention it again"

"No, that's enough, I'll come back in the afternoon"

I nodded, money, things outside the body, just enough, not too much, those villages have been oppressed for many years, presumably they are not rich, there is no need to ask others for money.

In the afternoon, I came to Lao Bai again, Lao Bai brought a middle-aged man in his thirties and forties, and when he saw me, he was very excited, and even immediately knelt in front of me, crying, making me look confused, what is the situation?
