v. 137, persuasion
γ2nd Updateγ
"I have been doing archaeology all my life, and all the archaeologists in China want to find the tombs of the Yuan Dynasty, and after a month of sorting, we only have a few rough estimates. If you www.biquge.info survey, you need not only time, but also a lot of money.
There are also some policy matters, which have been put on the shelf. But now you, a young man, are trying to let us find its existence and invest a lot of money for no reason. With all due respect, I asked some old friends to do some research on you, and the results of the investigation did not please me. No! I guess it's very confusing. Donald looked at me, he had a habit of smoking, reached for his jacket pocket, pulled out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, then lit a cigarette and took a deep breath.
"You're a working magazine editor, and before that you were a salesperson for a burial company. There is still a funeral goods shop in the business, and of course these are the places where you are named.
But, as far as I know, whether it's your tomb income, editing income, or shop income, it's only the last year or two, right? A literature student from a single-parent family, who did not open a company and only opened a shop within a year or two, relied on an income of a few thousand yuan, but lived in a commercial house in the most prosperous area of your D city, which is now worth nearly 10 million. Driving millions of luxury cars, these are incredible. However, your file is as innocent as paper, and I can't understand what kind of person a young man like you are. β
I smiled and asked, "Elder Tang, well, there are also Elder Lu and Elder Chen." Who do you three think I should be? β
Old Chen had a serious face, pointed to the cold-faced man standing behind me and said, "This is the answer I gave you, I think you should know it very well." β
I shook my head: "Actually, I'm wondering too. What Donald said was my famous business and job, and I naturally had other part-time jobs, which were my channels for making money. β
"Who are you working for?" Old Chen suddenly asked me.
Immediately after, I heard the familiar 'click' sound of the pistol being removed from the safe. The cold barrel was pressed against my lower back.
I chuckled and said, "It seems that you really think of me as a spy?" β
"Young man, your financial origins are too suspicious. Your identity is too deliberate! I have to guard against it! Over the years, how many foreign organizations have wanted to attack the wealth left by our ancestors, openly plundered, secretly stole and deceive, and the useless means are impossible to prevent. But this is the first time I have seen a young man as bold as you, who wants to use our name to excavate the ancient tombs of the Yuan Dynasty. I want to ......" Old Chen paused, and the old man with a thin face said lightly, "I think, do you have the detailed information of the ancient tombs of the Yuan Dynasty, and only because of some special reasons, and it is even likely that you can't steal in a densely populated area, you will do such a move?" β
I have to admit that several old people have the potential to be screenwriters, I didn't even think about such a drama, and a few old people helped me make up for it into the current situation.
"So, this black-faced killing god behind me is your killer weapon against me?" I asked.
"That's right! He's amazing! "The three of them are academics, and they look at problems from a completely different perspective than me. In my eyes, the black-faced god with the gun behind him is vulnerable, but for ordinary people, this person's skills and the dangerous aura emanating from his body are enough.
I smiled bitterly again, shook my head, and said, "Several old people are all highly respected people in the industry, and now we are also in the same boat." I think there are some things I can tell you the truth, but whether or not a few old people can believe it is not in my mind. We are also bound by a contract, even if a few old people don't believe what I say. Then I can only force a few old people to fulfill their contractual obligations and be sure to find the ancient tomb of the Yuan Dynasty before the ninth lunar month of this year.
According to the contract, I will bear any reasonable expenses of everyone during this period, and pay everyone a minimum remuneration of 100,000 yuan. And my purpose is to determine where the cemetery of the Yuan Dynasty is, and you can even send troops to guard the location that has been determined. I don't have any opinion at all. Doesn't that show my sincerity? β
"Tell me what you know." Donald extinguished the cigarette butt and threw it out the window.
"Can you get the person behind you to avoid it?" I asked.
"No way!" Lu Lao spoke.
"So, what is the level of secrecy of this person?" I asked.
"Very high, A level of secrecy." Lu Lao responded to me.
"It's very high! There are indeed a few things that can be known. I nodded.
Then he said, "Before that, I would like to ask the three teachers, do you agree that there are ghosts in this world?" β
The three of them looked at each other, as if surprised that my first question turned out to be like this.
But more than ten seconds later, Donald said: "Over the years of archaeology, I admit that I have encountered many strange things, and there is no way to explain them. But the ghost ...... At least I haven't. β
The other two old men also nodded.
I said, "First of all, my income has to do with this. All of my external identities are available to you, but there are some that you can't. For example, I am a Taoist heir of Jiugong Mountain, Feng Shui is good at public opinion, I know some methods such as renewing people's lives, catching ghosts and driving away evil spirits, and most of my income is related to this. β
"Charlatans?" Old Chen suddenly interjected and asked me.
I shook my head and said, "Charlatans are based on magic. And what I know is called a spell. The difference between one word is tens of millions of miles, and it must not be generalized. β
"There are indeed a lot of magical things in this world, but magic can't be counted, right?" Chen Lao said, with some seriousness between his words.
I smiled and said, "In order to let the three elders agree with my point of view more intuitively, hehe, in fact, before I found the three elders, I had already decided to tell you about this matter, but it was only sooner or later." The biggest difference between a spell and a deception is that a spell is the use of energy, while a deception is a use of means. For example......"
I tapped my fingers into Donald's jacket pocket and said, "Let the contents of your pocket fly out, it's a telekinesis in a spell." As the words fell, the cigarette case that had just been stuffed into Donald's pocket flew up by itself, and with the turn of my fingers, I danced the figure-eight dance of the little bee in front of the three old men.
This move obviously surprised the three old men.
But Chen Lao said a little stiffly: "This may be a special function!" β
I said, "The special function may be real, but I haven't seen it." However, fortunately, I have not been idle in the capital for more than a month, and when I visited the Forbidden City a few days ago, I found something that I didn't have time to dispose of. It's just the right time to get to know the three old people. β
Shrugging his shoulders, I didn't look back and asked the black-faced god with the gun, "Dude, can you put the gun down?" This thing really doesn't work for me. "From the moment he moved out of the insurance, I was already full of mana, and the lethality of the pistol was far from being too threatening to me.
I saw Lu Lao nodding slightly, and the muzzle of the gun behind him retreated.
I took out a piece of rune paper from my backpack, on which was the Soul Binding Spell I drew a few days ago, specifically for catching some resentful spirits like Earth Binding Spirits.
Then he turned out three ordinary pieces of yellow paper, came to the table next to the third elder, and laid out the three pieces of yellow paper. After thinking about it, he looked back at the black-faced god and asked, "Would you like to have a look too?" It's fun! "It's pure bad taste.
The black-faced god naturally shook his head and dismissed me.
I grinned indifferently, and used a cinnabar pen to turn a yin qi talisman on it, this talisman is simply that it can temporarily gather a certain amount of yin qi, and through the relationship between the talismans, ordinary people can see ghosts.
Of course, there are other methods, such as temporarily using mana to make people open their eyes.
But for better results, I don't mind a little more trouble.
As I drew the talisman, I explained: "The one I drew is called the Yin Qi Talisman, and the main purpose is to collect the Yin Qi around me, and through the relationship between the talismans, it is like forming glass through a layer of Yin Qi. In this way, you can see the ghost body that ordinary people can't see on weekdays. Of course, for the sake of convenience, there is also an obsessive yin soul in my spirit binding talisman, which is commonly known as the substitute ghost. It's a pity that this thing can't ask for any valuable historical information. "When I say this, I have no obligation to tell them that they can use the method of ghost upper body to temporarily open the mind of an obsessive ghost who does not want to be reincarnated, and for a short time it will be like a living person.
Even so, the three old experts were stunned when they heard it.
What I want is such an effect, as for whether Lu Lao said that this is hypnosis.
I could only smile helplessly: "This thing has a public opinion, I don't explain it." "A few respected old people naturally understand how far the effect of hypnosis can be. If you want them to have the illusion in front of them, you must make careful arrangements beforehand, to put it bluntly, you just keep scaring them before! After first making them have a sense of fear, they can achieve the so-called hypnotic effect of Lu Lao after various means and even drugs in the later stage.
Can you really expect someone to hold a pocket watch and swing it around your eyes a few times and tell you what you do when you fall asleep and what you forget when you wake up? This one is so fake!
Seeing that I was noncommittal, Lu Lao also laughed, and naturally he also understood that this possibility was extremely low, almost non-existent.
Collect the pen, and the charm is formed. Homeopathic infusion of mana, urging the talisman, as soon as possible to collect the surrounding yin qi.
Then he sent the talisman that was cold to the touch to the hands of the three old men and said: "I won't go into the details of the specific situation, as long as you stick this on the door of your head for a few minutes, you can see things that you will never see in the past." If you don't want to see it, take it off. β
The three old men glanced at each other, and then put the Yin Qi Talisman on their heads in unison.
