Chapter 14: Becoming a Yin and Yang Merchant

The address Zou Huan gave me was an antique shop.

The name of the shop is Eternal Antiques.

I guess the antique store is opened to hide the identity, so that it is also better to hide the buying and selling of yin and yang merchants, and it is more convenient.

After I entered, Zou Huan was not in the store, there was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old child in the store.

He said when he saw my dress. "You're the one named Levy."

I didn't expect him to know me, so I asked. "You are?"

The child said. "I am the master's apprentice, and the master has already told me about your affairs, and I can be regarded as your senior brother in terms of seniority. But you can just call me Zou Ling. ”

It turned out that Zou Huan had another apprentice, and I thought he was alone.

"What about your master?" I asked.

Zou Ling shook his head. "I don't know, maybe I'm going to receive the goods, there are a lot of goods to receive recently, and I have to look at the store again, so I can only go to the master to collect the goods alone, and it is estimated that it will take two days to come back."

"Two days is so long?" When I heard that it would take two or three days to come back, I was embarrassed.

I was going to ask him about the master.

"Yes, you can stay in the hotel at night and wait for him to come back."

"Hmm." I nodded.

Now there is nowhere to go, so I can only wait here for Zou Huan to come back.

Zou Ling took me to the backyard of the store, which was clean.

He cleaned up a house. "You'll live here in the future, if you're fine, you can go around the area, but you're still wrapped in bandages, so let's rest first, play with your phone and computer or something."

I have to say that this antique shop is quite advanced, although it is a yard, but the equipment in the room is very advanced! Very modern.

It seems that although Zou Huan is an antique dealer, he is not an old antique, he is still very up-to-date, much better than the master.

The most advanced thing in the Taoist temple, that is, a black-and-white TV series, is used by the master to listen to the play.

When I think of the master, I think of the words that the master wrote on the stone tablet, wait until you become a heavenly master and come to me again.

What exactly is a Celestial Master? I've never heard the master say that word.

I don't know if Zou Huan knows, if he doesn't know either, then where can I go to find the master and brother.

At noon, Zou Ling brought me a lunch.

The dishes in the store are all delivered on time every day from the restaurant next door, and today he specially ordered an extra one.

After lunch.

Zou Ling went to see the storefront.

Although there are few people who come to buy in the antique shop, there are still some people who can see it.

He'll have to keep an eye on it.

I don't know why, but the feeling of contact with Zou Ling makes me very comfortable, as if he exudes an affinity, which makes people not irritable.

The evening of the day's business is finally over.

Zou Ling finished his work in the store and came to the backyard to find me. "How's it going, are you satisfied with the rest?"

I nodded. "Is the store usually busy? Are they all here to buy evil things? ”

"It's not that they will contact the master when they buy evil things, and the evil things are locked in the backyard lobby, and the front ones are just some to see the antiques."

Later, Zou Ling told me about some deeds in the Yin and Yang business.

From his mouth, I learned that there are very few yin and yang merchants in this world today, almost a few of them anymore.

And Zou Huan is the best one in this industry, and his ability is also the strongest one.

Zou Ling also told me that the reason why Master Zou Huan is so good is that he has set a criterion for himself, that is, to take money as the standard, and try not to mix personal matters and not to inquire about the details of customers.

After all, most of the uses of evil things are not righteous, and many of them are used to harm others.

Zou Huan's rule is extremely good for them, so they like to trade with their masters.

Think about it too.

Even when my master went to invite him, it was because of the Qiankun Mirror that Zou Huan was willing to help.

After we talked a little more in the evening, Zou Ling told me to rest well and went back to my room.

Two days passed in a flash.

At noon on the third day, Zou Huan came back humming a little song, and there were two more small objects in his hand.

At first glance, it is an evil thing.

As soon as he came in, he saw me sitting at the counter.

"Are you already here?"

"Well, I came the day before yesterday." I said.

"I thought you'd be with your master for a while."

"My master is missing." I told Zou Huan what happened.

I didn't expect Zou Huan's focus to be very strange, and he didn't care about my master's safety.

Instead, he scolded. "This old thing, you are already my disciple, of course, to become a yin and yang merchant. He actually wants you to become a Heavenly Master, daydreaming! ”

"Then what's going on with my master? Do you know where he is now? I asked.

"I don't know, but don't worry, that old thing won't be fine. Did you bring what your master asked you to bring me? ”

I pulled out the mirror.

Zou Huan happily took it.

Said as he watched. "Yes, it's indeed the Qiankun Mirror, this treasure is finally here, let's go, I'll take you in."

Then Zou Huan took me to the lobby in the backyard.

Zou Ling told me that the backyard lobby is for evil things, and the key is only available to Zou Huan.

Zou Huan opened the door.

The structure of the lobby comes into view.

In the center is a tablet.

On the left and right sides are all kinds of strange things, some of which are old, and some of which are modern. But they all exude an uncomfortable atmosphere.

At first glance, it is an evil thing.

Zou Huan led me to the center of the lobby. "This is the ancestor of the Yin and Yang merchant, if you want to be my apprentice, you have to worship the ancestor first, you should kowtow to the ancestor first."

After hearing this, I knelt on top of the tuanpu and knocked three times.

Zou Huan nodded with satisfaction. "Yes, from now on you will officially become my apprentice."

Then he placed the Qiankun mirror behind the tablet.

Said to himself. "That way, these things won't scream at night in the future."

It seems that this Qiankun Mirror has a great deterrent effect on these evil things.

"Okay, since you have made me an apprentice, then I will tell you some things." Zou Huan began to get to the point.

"First of all, it's very free to be a yin-yang businessman, no matter what you do, I won't care, but you have to hand over 100,000 yuan every month."

"Damn, so much." I blurted out.

Not to mention 100,000 yuan, I can't take out 5,000 yuan now.

In the past, when I worked with my master and brother, I thought it was a lot to earn 3,000 a month.

This time he asked me to take out 100,000 yuan, where can I go to get it?

Zou Huan gave me a blank look. "The vision is really shallow, don't worry, you will find that 100,000 yuan is not a lot in the future."

"And the second point is that the evil things you get through the information given to you by the teacher cannot be bought and sold privately! I can only sell it to the teacher, and I will charge 20% of the handling fee. ”

"That's a lot!"

Then Zou Huan kept telling me the door rules, but almost every door rule was related to money.

Sure enough, in response to my former master's words, this guy is an iron abacus.

After the rules were finished, Zou Huan continued. "I told you what an evil thing is last time, and you should have understood. Today I'm telling you what evil is. ”

"Your master's faction is always superstitious about ghosts and gods, but in fact, there are no ghosts in this world. It's just evil. ”

"And what is a demon?"

"The evil spirit is a naturally born creature, but because its power is too weird, it has not been announced to the world, and it is afraid of causing panic among the people."

"The way they were born is also very peculiar, no one can say for sure. However, people can also become evil spirits, and after becoming evil spirits, they can far surpass the abilities of human beings. ”

"But no one has been able to figure out the conditions for becoming an evil spirit. I only know that there is another prerequisite for becoming an evil spirit, and that is to die once! And it doesn't necessarily succeed in turning into an evil spirit. ”

"I see."

One of my doubts was finally solved.

No wonder in the wooden house in the forest before, Wang Shan, Zhao Feng and Liu Mei harmed so many people, but only Liu Mei became the third evil ghost, and the other people who were killed did not become evil ghosts.

But think about it.

Otherwise, wouldn't the whole world be full of evil spirits?

"So I suggest that you don't have the idea of becoming an evil ghost, and we Yin and Yang merchants, although we often deal with these things, we don't bother to become evil spirits at all, and many times evil things are not weaker than them at all." Zou Huan's expression was full of pride between the words.

"I'll tell you a little bit more about the types of demons."

Zou Huan also told me that evil spirits are divided into three types: humanoid, animal-like and animal-like, and alien.

Among them, the humanoid form is the weakest, but the growth is the highest; Plants and animals are medium in shape and medium in growth; The alien is the most ferocious and the most bizarre, but the growth is low.

The sewing I encountered before was a alien.

As he spoke, I gradually understood a little bit.

Listen, a question pops into my mind.

So he asked. "Master, can humans and evil spirits get married and have children?"

That's right, I'm still a little worried about Sister Fairy, or I'm a little unwilling, I decided that I will go to Fukuzawa Island again when I have a chance in the future, to figure this matter out, and apologize or something, I don't want to be so unclear.

"Yes, yes, there have been people who have had children with evil spirits before, but they have all died without exception. Because this kind of thing is not allowed by the Heavenly Dao, even if a baby is born, it will be subjected to thunderstorms, and it will be thunderstormed on the same day every year. So if there is no one who can survive, what is the point of being able to give birth? ”
