Chapter 22: Zhong Kui's Descendants
"Twenty?"
The supermarket owner stared at Qian Wancang with his eyes wide.
He thought he had misheard.
This young man, who was unwilling to take advantage of a dime before, why did he suddenly bargain so hard?
"That's right, I think these sunglasses are worth twenty dollars."
Qian Wancang looked at ease.
"Okay, twenty is twenty."
The supermarket owner readily agreed to the price code given by Qian Wancang.
The reason why he is so cheerful,
It's not because of the face of old customers,
It's because he found out that Qian Wancang was holding the girly sunglasses.
These sunglasses have been in the store for five years.
Five years ago, these sunglasses were only sold for 8 yuan!
Later, it was never sold, so it was mixed with new sunglasses and sold, and the price was the same as other sunglasses, selling for 28.5 yuan.
At this time, even if he sells it for 20 yuan, he will make money!
"I'm rubbing, profiteer!"
Qian Wancang saw the inner activities of the supermarket owner and knew that he had suffered a loss, so he couldn't help but scold in his heart.
But because it was the price he gave, it was not easy to change it for a while.
I had to silently suffer this dumb loss.
However, Qian Wancang also secretly swore at this time that he would never be so polite when he came to this supermarket to consume in the future.
In short, if you can make a supermarket owner earn a penny less, let him earn a penny less.
Profiteers don't deserve sympathy......
After leaving the supermarket, Qian Wancang walked home.
Although he was cheated by the supermarket owner just now, Qian Wancang was still in a good mood.
Because he's finally found a way to control his superpowers.
Qian Wancang glanced at his sunglasses,
found that after tearing off the girly model photo, this pair of sunglasses is much normal, and the style is not much different from the sunglasses of the urban trendy man.
The reason why I think this sunglasses are "mother" just now is mostly because of the model,
makes people think that after wearing sunglasses, they will become the "mother" of the model......
If a macho tough guy had been the model for this sunglasses, maybe it wouldn't have been abandoned in that broken supermarket for five years.
It can be seen how important it is to choose a good spokesperson for the product......
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Qian Wancang noticed a van.
I saw that on the body of the van, there were eight big characters printed with "Zhong Kui's descendants, professional demon severing", and next to the big characters, there was also a huge photo of a Taoist priest.
And in the lower right corner of the Taoist photo, there are three big characters of dragons flying and phoenixes dancing: Zhong Dawei.
Zhong Dawei should be the name of this Taoist priest.
Qian Wancang felt that this Taoist priest named Zhong Dawei was somewhat familiar.
He frowned, thought about it carefully, and quickly remembered, isn't this Taoist priest the Taoist priest who recited mantras in the community in the morning and waved the dust?
Unexpectedly, he turned out to be a descendant of Zhong Kui!
Qian Wancang has seen Zhong Kui's story,
In other words, during the Tang Dynasty, Emperor Tang Xuanzong suddenly fell seriously ill after a cruise, and he was not cured by many methods.
That night, the emperor had a dream,
In a dream that a little imp dressed in red stole his treasure, he was angry and wanted to punish the imp, but he was unable to do so.
At this moment, a big ghost wearing a broken hat suddenly appeared, caught the little ghost and ate it in his stomach.
The emperor asked him who he was, and the big ghost replied: The minister was originally a Jinshi of Zhongnan Mountain, named Zhong Kui.
Because the emperor disliked my ugly appearance and decided not to admit me, I was killed on the steps of the palace in a fit of rage, and after my death I engaged in ghost hunting......
After Tang Xuanzong woke up from his dream, he was cured.
So, he ordered Wu Daozi, the most famous painter at that time, to paint the image of Zhong Kui in his dream.
Since the emperor himself was a fanatical Taoist believer, with his strong support and publicity, Zhong Kui became a ghost-hunting god who subdued demons and eliminated demons......
As soon as he thought of Zhong Kui's story, Qian Wancang developed a sense of admiration for this Taoist priest named Zhong Dawei.
Although he did not believe in superstition, he was a descendant of historical celebrities.
"Wait......"
Suddenly, Qian Wancang realized that something was wrong.
He remembered that in the story, Zhong Kui committed suicide when he was young and became a big ghost, and then used the identity of a ghost to hunt ghosts.
According to this, Zhong Kui should have no descendants???
Since Zhong Kui has no descendants, why does this Taoist priest named Zhong Dawei claim to be a descendant of Zhong Kui?
"I think it's mostly to put gold on my name and then make it easier to cheat around."
Qian Wancang guessed in his heart.
Of course, maybe they are really the descendants of Zhong Kui, after all, there is a certain gap between the legendary story and the historical truth......
"Big brother, why hasn't the little mouse moved? It can't be suffocation, right? ”
Suddenly, a frightened voice came.
Qian Wancang looked for prestige, only to see a thief-eyed man, dressed in a Taoist uniform, holding a white sack, talking while hurrying towards the van.
Behind this man, there was also a Taoist priest.
Qian Wancang recognized that the Taoist priest behind him was the Taoist priest printed on the van: Zhong Dawei.
Out of curiosity, Qian Wancang looked directly at Zhong Dawei.
Zhong Dawei also noticed Qian Wancang, but he only glanced at it, and then continued to look ahead, maintaining a fairy wind and crane bone temperament.
"Big brother, our service has been overtime for two hours today, you see that the little mice are about to suffocate to death, but you don't give them a price, this business is a bit of a loss!"
The Taoist priest holding the white sack spoke again.
"Our duty is to help people exorcise demons and demons, we don't charge money, the people give us some oil and water, that's our blessing, how can there be a loss or not?"
Zhong Dawei replied calmly, and at the same time glared at his companion fiercely.
"The main reason is that the little mouse has been bored for so long, I feel distressed!"
The Taoist priest holding the white sack got into the van, then quickly opened the white sack and took out a small white mouse from it.
"You're just too kind, just a monster, what's distressing?"
Zhong Dawei stood in front of the van door, deliberately raised his voice, and then reached out and grabbed the sliding door of the van and pulled it hard.
With the "Smack! There was a bang, and the car door slammed shut.
Immediately afterwards, Zhong Dawei got into the cab, threw the floating dust into the passenger seat, and then closed the door of the cab tightly.
Fasten your seatbelt, apply the brakes, and press the start button.
"Sudden ......"
The engine is on fire,
Zhong Dawei hung up the first gear, aimed at the rearview mirror, slowly released the brakes, and skillfully drove away the van......
Through the rear window, Qian Wancang vaguely saw that the Taoist priest's mouth in the rear seat was moving, he should be saying something, but he couldn't hear it clearly.
Moreover, because the distance was too far, he couldn't see through the inner thoughts of these two Taoist priests.
Judging from the conversation just heard, these two Taoist priests should have just finished performing a ritual.
The white rat in the white sack is the monster they caught......
