Chapter 10 Selling Talismans
It is still the same ancient street as before, but on the ancient street now, there is an extra scenery.
A young man of about 20 was selling things by setting up a stall on the side of the ancient street. And when I got closer, I saw that these yellow runes were displayed on the ground for sale.
There are not many rune papers, only five or six at a rough glance, and they are all painted with mysterious runes, and I don't know whether they are true or false. And the most eye-catching thing is the large paper shell next to the rune paper, on which are written in ink a few words: exorcism charms, evil charms, and amulets. Each talisman is 10,000 yuan, and the price is not two.
Because of this sentence, some passers-by gathered in front of the young man's temporary stall. Naturally, there is not one that is really to be bought. The young man didn't care, he was looking at a scroll of Taoist scriptures by himself, but he looked very leisurely.
This young man is naturally easy to clear.
That day, after Meng Jun sent him back to this ancient street according to Yi Qing's instructions, Yi Qing let Meng Jun go back. As for himself, he carried a check for one million in his arms, and the so-called waist bag was thick. In Yi Qing's words at the time, that is, "the poor road will also be vulgar again".
After thinking about it, I went directly to the bank to get a card and deposited the million. I took out 10,000 yuan again, first found a hotel with a better environment and stayed again, and then changed my outfit to a new one. In the end, I thought about it and bought a mobile phone.
After all, these days, it is really inconvenient to not have a mobile phone. But in addition, Yi Qing was still thinking about Feiyunguan after all, and he didn't use a penny more.
It's just that Meng Jun's casual behavior of one million stimulated Yi Qing fiercely. At this time, Yi Qing also figured it out, there is really no shortage of rich people these days. And although his spirit rune is not worth a penny in the eyes of some people, it may be a life-saving treasure in the eyes of others, worth a thousand gold.
Thinking like this, Yi Qing had an idea and drew six spirit runes. Two of the three spirit runes, and the next day they were taken to the ancient street and sold. As for the price, Yi Qing gritted his teeth and directly offered 10,000 yuan per run.
In his opinion, one is willing to buy, the other is willing to buy, even if he sells it for 10,000 yuan, he is not cheating. After all, what he sells is a real spirit rune, not a deceptive trick begged for in those small temples.
"10,000 yuan a talisman, does this person really think that the world is full of fools, and someone will buy this broken talisman."
"Maybe someone wrote it wrong, I originally wanted to write a piece, maybe I added an extra 10,000 words in the middle."
"I guess I want to make a splash, but these days, there is no one. It's just a pity that this young man has a good temperament. ”
There were all these noises in his ears, and the corners of Yi Qing's mouth twitched slightly, and he didn't bother to care. Most of these people were just trying to make a scene, and he didn't intend to see these people as potential buyers for him.
After all, Huanghuang humanity is just like the sun. How can there be so many ghosts and evil things in this world, and how can they be so easily bumped into by you. Naturally, there will not be too many people who urgently need this spirit rune like Meng Jun before.
Yi Qing also figured out that his own livelihood was like those antique jewelry. If it doesn't open for three years, it will open for three years. If he can really sell one today, it will be his luck to clear it.
Thinking so thoroughly, Yi Qing's attention was even more focused on the Taoist scripture in his hand. Although I was very familiar with this Taoist Sutra before, I comprehended it with the eyes of the Taoist now, and suddenly found that there were many mysteries of the Great Dao, and I couldn't help but be intoxicated.
"Little brother, is this talisman really effective?"
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded in my ears.
Putting down the Taoist scripture in his hand, Yi Qing looked up, and saw an old man with a gentle face. The old man was a little thin, and although his head was white, he was meticulously combed and looked very energetic.
At this time, he was squatting in front of his stall, carefully observing the three spirit runes. The gaze hidden behind the glasses flashed with a burst of thought from time to time, as if he was a little moved by these spirit runes.
"Those who believe have, but those who do not believe."
With a slight groan, Yi Qing also said slowly. Of course, you know whether the spirit rune is effective or not, but you may not believe it when you tell others. Rather than be suspicious of boasting, it is better not to answer this question.
And if the old man in front of him really planned to buy this spirit rune, he obviously believed in some things, and even encountered those things. In this way, Yi Qing said such a sentence directly.
There are believers, but there are none. If you believe in the power of the talisman, then the talisman is valid; If you believe that there are strange things in this world, then there are these things in this world!
The old man was slightly stunned when he heard this, obviously he didn't expect Yi Qing to answer like this. A pair of eyes moved away from the spirit rune on the ground, and began to look directly at the young man in front of him.
This look was a little surprised, he had read countless people in his life, and at this moment he seemed to be unable to see through the young man in front of him. I just feel that this young man has a temperament that fits the natural spirit.
Thinking of what the young man said, a thoughtful look suddenly appeared on his face.
Seeing the old man's appearance, Yi Qing smiled slightly, did not bother, and picked up the Taoist scripture in his hand again and looked at it.
It's just that the crowd watching the excitement from the sidelines finally couldn't help but talk about it at this time. The appearance of the old man, to what happened just now, all happened in their eyes.
Seeing that the old man who suddenly appeared was really ready to buy this so-called spirit rune, many people began to persuade the old man not to be deceived, and some people were also wondering if the old man was a nursery.
In short, this small stall in Yi Qing is a few points more lively than just now.
Regarding the behavior of these people who are watching the excitement and smashing their jobs, Yi Qing doesn't seem to care at all. Buying and selling is a matter of mutual affection, and if the old man has no intention of buying, he will naturally not force it.
What's more, thinking of this, Yi Qing couldn't help but glance at the old man. The old man's bearing, how can he easily be swayed by irrelevant people.
Sure enough, Xu felt that these people around him were too annoying, and the old man glared back sharply. Although he didn't say anything, it was that stern gaze, but it had already revealed a majesty. Without being angry, the voices around him became quieter, and finally no one came forward to persuade the old man.
Seeing this, the old man turned his head with satisfaction, and actually thought about it again.
It was only in the next moment that a voice sounded abruptly again, and the old man's brow, which had just been soothed, suddenly furrowed again.
"This grandfather, there are many liars these days. The means of deception are even more endless, but you can't be deceived. ”
Before the words fell, the three bright figures had already walked out of the crowd. The three girls were all about twenty years old and dressed in fashionable clothes.
And now it's summer, and there are not many natural clothes on the body, and the youthful demeanor is undoubtedly revealed. It was the girl who walked in the middle who spoke before, and when she saw the face of the girl who spoke clearly, the eyes of everyone on the side couldn't help but brighten up.
Compared with this girl, although the two girls around her can be regarded as reaching the level of beauty, they have undoubtedly lost a lot of color.
"You're young, it's not easy to do anything, but you want to deceive the old man, aren't you ashamed?"
Su Zi looked at the young man in front of him who was still there, and his heart was suddenly angry, he had never seen a liar so arrogant. The slightly sharp chin was slightly raised, and he immediately reprimanded unceremoniously.
I went out shopping with my two roommates, and I saw a lot of people around this stall before, so I couldn't help but be curious and pulled my two roommates to squeeze over to have a look. What I didn't expect to see was someone selling the so-called spirit runes, and they actually asked for 10,000 yuan a piece.
When he saw that an old man was about to be fooled and ready to buy, Su Zi finally couldn't hold back anymore and hurriedly stopped him.
"What age are you now, you still promote superstitious thoughts, you are simply the scum of this society."
For the young man in front of him, Su Zi felt a little disgusted from the first sight. is obviously the same age as himself, and he can't support himself by doing anything, but he wants to cheat here.
Yi Qing heard the two sentences of accusation from the girl in front of him, and his calm eyebrows suddenly wrinkled slightly. Originally, such a stunning beauty, Yi Qing felt good at first, but at this time, he suddenly disliked it. What is the propagation of superstition, and what is the scum of society.
It's just that after years of mental polishing, he still patiently explained: "This young lady, what is superstition? I sell my own things, I don't steal or rob, how can I become the scum of this society? ”
"Are you still reasonable? Look what you're selling, rune paper! You let everyone tell me that God is Shinto, and this is not superstition? Also, it seems that this thing is only available in those temples, you take it out and sell it, and pay 10,000 yuan a piece, this is not robbery, but it is more shameful than robbery, isn't it? ”
Hearing Yi Qing's words, Su Zi couldn't help but smile coldly, and immediately pointed to the runic papers on the ground and retorted like a cannon.
"That's right, it's the 21st century, what kind of spirit runes, gods and ghosts, aren't they all scientifically proven to be fooling people?"
Xu saw the presence of three beautiful women, and many of the people present, especially the male compatriots, joined Su Zi's camp one after another and began to accuse Yi Qing.
Seeing this, Su Zi looked at Yi Qing in front of her, and a touch of pride suddenly appeared on her delicate face. Dare to come out and deceive people, and see that you are still not visible in front of Miss Ben.
Seeing this scene, Yi Qing was rarely silent. I felt a little helpless, even sad. In the first Qin Dynasty, there was a monk Xu Fu who wanted to refine the elixir of life, and there was a monastic civilization. True cultivation in the world, inherited for thousands of years, how has it become a superstition now
"Little girl, you can't say that. The things of the ancestors, passed down to the present, are always a little mysterious. It's just that we, the unscrupulous descendants, have lost the ability of our ancestors. ”
At this moment, the old man on the side suddenly spoke. The meaning of the words was actually to refute what Su Zi said before.
"Huh?" Not only Su Zi, but even the others on the side were stunned. The posture of waiting for others is clearly helping the old man not to let him be deceived, how can this old man actually speak for the liar.
"This grandfather, now you have to believe in science. How can those feudal superstitions be true? ”
Su Zi felt a little incredible, but quickly explained to the old man. In her guess, this old man must have been a little more influenced by those feudal superstitions, and it was inevitable that he would have some belief in it.
"Needless to say, whether it's feudal superstition or not, I know in my heart."
The old man suddenly waved his hand at Su Ziyi, and then looked at Yi Qing, who was still silent on the side, and couldn't help but smile, "Little brother, I'll buy a few." ”
Yi Qing came back to his senses when he heard this, but there was no surprise in his heart. Looking at the appearance of the old man before, I am afraid that I also believe these things in my heart.
Only Su Zi was watching from the side, and the white teeth couldn't help biting the delicate and ruddy lips, and a trace of shame seemed to flash in her eyes.
"Humph! I won't let you succeed as a liar. ”
Biting her red lip, Su Zi suddenly took out her small mobile phone, pressed it a few times, and whispered.
