Judging from the lines, this piece of wood, a few centimeters, is indeed very similar to the bark on Old Man Chen's body.

However, the bark is brown, and the wood chips are vermilion, which is particularly bright in color and has a peculiar fragrance. On the surface, the two seem to be different things, but the similarity between the two is striking, and I have to connect the two.

When I was in the ghost market, I thought it was agarwood. However, after this thing has something to do with Zhang Guang, it is unlikely that it is agarwood.

Although agarwood is precious, it is not worth letting Zhang Guang risk setting up a stall in the ghost market.

So, what exactly is this thing? The only thing that is certain is that this thing is worth a lot of money!

I told the two of them my guess, and when Huang Yan heard it, he rubbed his hands and asked me how much this thing was worth?

I told him that I couldn't be sure now, and I had to ask someone who knew how to do it.

I returned the things to Huang Yan and asked him to put them away.

Huang Yan asked me to help him keep it, he said that he didn't understand this thing himself, and he couldn't tell where he would throw it on him.

Thinking of Huang Yan's reckless appearance, I put the things away, and told him to wait for the question to understand, and when the price is right, I will sell, and give him the money when the time comes.

Huang Yan said: "What are these words, this should be regarded as an apprentice's filial piety to the master..."

Zhang Qian laughed and scolded him on the side, obviously he picked it up, you are so filial to your master?

Huang Yan's face turned red when he was said, and he looked embarrassed.

I know that Zhang Qianren has no bad intentions, but her mouth is very powerful.

I raised a glass and drank with Huang Yan, which was regarded as relieving him, so that he would not call the master in the future, and everyone would be brothers when he went out.

After Huang Yan listened, he toasted me three times in a row. I don't like to drink, and I'm a little bit too drunk because of the amount of alcohol.

In the haze of alcohol, I saw that Huang Yan seemed to wipe tears, and Zhang Qian also laughed at him.

It was two o'clock in the evening before they went back to their respective homes.

It wasn't until noon the next day that I got out of bed, and I forgot how I got home.

After washing, I opened the store and prepared for business.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw Zhang Qian standing in front of my store.

After Zhang Qian saw me, she said that the phone was not answered, the store door was not open, and she thought that something had happened to me.

I said what could happen?

Zhang Qian said angrily: "Haven't you watched today's news?" ”

I asked her, what news? I'm not a big star, and I can't be in the newspaper...

Zhang Qian looked speechless and said that my heart is really big.

She pulled out her phone and showed me a news headline.

There was a murder case on General Road in this city, and two bodies were found at the scene......

Homicide case?!

I'll go! This time it's troublesome, and I know it's a bit serious.

Zhang Qian told me that he had just asked Huang Yan to go and see it, and a cordon had been set up over there, and no one was allowed to enter or leave.

As soon as I heard it, I knew it was over!

It's a ghost market, and after martial law is put on the life case, the ghost market can't be opened, so I can't go looking for materials. It will not be possible to fulfill Baye's request, then......

Offending a head-lowering master is definitely not a good thing.

Zhang Qian asked me, what are you looking for, and why do you have to go to the ghost market to find it?

I told her that I was looking for fish oil from the South China Sea mermaids.

"This thing is precious?" Zhang Qian asked me curiously.

I explained it to her.

The earliest record of the South China Sea mermaid should be in the Zhou Dynasty.

It is rumored that the lamp oil of the ever-bright lamp in the tomb of Qin Shi Huang is the mermaid oil used.

So that the ancient tombs of later generations are all imitated, the Tang Dynasty was the most prosperous, and in the later period, the records of the mermaids almost disappeared, and in modern times it has been in the legend.

Therefore, this South China Sea shark oil has to be taken out of the ancient tomb.

Archaeological teams or museums may have collections, which are invaluable to academics as objects of study.

However, for tomb robbers, this thing is not as good as two taels of lard at home. Therefore, there are very few such things sold on the market, and they may be lost in the process of robbing tombs.

I don't dare to ask for extravagance in the museum, but the tomb robbers usually bring out the lantern together, and maybe there will be remnants of mermaid oil on it.

At this time, Huang Yan came back from outside, and as soon as he entered the house, he said: "It's bad, it's bad, the ghost market is causing death, and now the whole city is arresting the murderer, and there are a lot of policemen at the scene of the crime." ”

As soon as I heard this, my mood hit rock bottom.

Originally, I wanted to pan for shark oil in the ghost market, but now it's good, it's the scene of the crime, it seems that for ten days and a half, the guys in the ghost market don't dare to come forward. Shark oil is even more difficult to find.

Zhang Qian asked me why I looked sad, is there nothing I can do?

I said, I can't think of anywhere else I can find it other than a ghost market.

Zhang Qian said that this is not necessarily.

I listened to her and seemed to have a way to tell her not to sell her money.

Zhang Qian said that she would naturally have a way, it depends on how I repay her, and I said that I can do anything except make a promise to her.

Zhang Qian gave me a blank look and said to me, "Who wants you to be an old bachelor?" ”

Huang Yan snickered when he heard this, I glared at him, and the kid immediately stepped aside.

Zhang Qian continued: "In three days, I will be able to find what you want, and you must promise me one thing when the time comes!" ”

I understand Zhang Qian's character, people are a little eccentric, but she doesn't have bad intentions, at this time, she doesn't want to say one thing, even if it is ten, I will agree to it.

"Deal!" Zhang Qianxi smiled, and asked me to wait for his news when I finally left.

Huang Yan asked me, what does Zhang Qian's family do?

I said the rich second generation.

Huang Yan smashed his mouth and didn't say anything, but suddenly exclaimed.

"Ahh Master, my brothers have news that Fei Ge has died in the detention center! ”

Duan Rongfei is dead?!

I had a bad feeling in my heart.

Huang Yan told me that Duan Rongfei died a very strange death, and during the day he was found bleeding to death through seven holes, and his whole body was covered with white hair, just like a thousand-year-old zombie.

I asked Huang Yan who he was listening to, and he said that there were his own brothers in the same warehouse, and now they are all spread all over the road.

Huang Yan asked me, did I cast a spell to do this?

I said, if I had this ability, I would still open an art gallery here?

However, Duan Rongfei's death reminded me of a person.

Baye!

Duan Rongfei's death should have been caused by the head-lowering technique.

So why did Baye kill him? Duan Rongfei is still a threat to him?

Subsequently, Huang Yan was called back to the bubble tea shop to help.

And I was alone, and I began to study the wood chips that Huang Yan picked up last night.

I looked it up on the Internet, but I couldn't find the corresponding answer.

Just after lunch, someone entered the store.

I looked up, and I saw someone I didn't want to see now!

Baye!

I asked him why he came?

Baye smiled gloomily and said, "Did you go to the ghost market last night and find what you wanted?" ”

When I heard Baye's words, I chuckled in my heart.

I told him that I was almost looking for something.

Valle looked dissatisfied, and told me that there were five days left, and if things weren't in order, there would be no need to look for them...

I knew he was threatening me with my life!

I told him that the things were already in sight and would be ready soon.

Baye sneered and said, "That's the best...

As soon as his words fell, his eyes flashed, and he suddenly reached out and snatched the piece of wood that I had placed on the counter!

I tried to stop it, but I couldn't.

The wood chips were grasped in his hands, and an excited smile appeared on his face, as if he had seen some rare treasure.

Then, the smile on his face immediately disappeared, replaced by a fierce face: "Where did this thing come from?!" ”

I said I picked it up in a ghost market.

He looked at me coldly for a long time, and finally the expression on his face softened a little, and he said to me, "I want this thing......

I tried to stop him, but he handed the piece of wood to his shoulder, as if something was waiting for him somewhere.

Suddenly, a small white hand stretched out from Baye's back, grabbed the piece of wood that Baye handed over, and then withdrew it.

I thought I was hallucinating, but then I heard a tooth-aching sound, gurgling... It seems to be a sound that only makes when you chew a bone, or if you chew a jelly bean.

I couldn't help but swallow, there was an indescribable weirdness in the air. That piece of wood, I've studied. It's also very difficult to cut a small piece with a knife, what is it that can chew something so hard as a jelly bean?

When the voice disappeared, Baye smiled with satisfaction, "You're a good thing, my baby loves it..."

I don't know what he was talking about, but from the strange whiteness of the hand just now, I could tell that it must be some kind of evil thing!

I gritted my teeth and said to Valle, "That's mine...

Baye shrugged and said to me, "It's not yours anymore!" ”

I saw a hint of rebelliousness flashing in Baye's eyes, he was acting arrogantly and domineeringly, and now I have no way to deal with him, but to be threatened by him.

Baye patted me on the shoulder and said to me, do what you have to do well, and it will be indispensable for me to do it.

However, I have a feeling in my heart that I am seeking the skin of a tiger, if I really complete the yin and yang painting, it is not certain whether he will cross the river and tear down the bridge.

He said to me in a warning tone, don't try to play tricks, otherwise Duan Rongfei's fate will be my future...

With that, Valle turned to leave.

And I looked at his back and saw that there was nothing special behind him. However, as he was about to leave the house, I saw a human face on the back of his shirt, and that face was still smiling...
