Chapter 1: Windfall

Next Chapter

My name is He Tingcheng and I am a graduate of the Police Academy. But I'm not a police officer, I'm a true feng shui gentleman.

Speaking of this, I have to start when I was seven years old, I remember that year, on the Midyear Festival, my mother asked me to go to the crossroads to send some paper money, and I couldn't afford to get sick when the Yin soldiers passed by!

During this period, I saw a lot of doctors, asked a lot of Taoist priests, and said that my life was short. After hearing this, my mother was at a loss and cried, and at this moment the sloppy old man wanted to tell me about his relatives, but there was a condition that after he was cured, he must worship his disciples.

Reporting the principle of a dead horse as a live horse doctor, his mother agreed to his request, and the next day the sloppy old man dragged a blood-red carved coffin back.

The coffin was covered with a big red cloth and tied with a big red flower, which did not mean to be festive, on the contrary, it was more frightening.

Lao Dao was also respectful to the coffin, and it took three steps and nine knocks to carry the coffin to the newly arranged house, and the next day I was miraculously healed.

When I woke up, I was sleeping in the coffin, next to a bride wearing a red wedding robe, wearing a big red hijab, not a little angry, my scalp was numb instantly, a spirit jumped out of it, and I didn't dare to wear my shoes and ran out barefoot.

After coming out, my mother was ecstatic, and randomly pulled me to find Lao Dao to apprentice, and after a cup of tea, Lao Dao took out an old yellowed book and told me to be diligent and familiar with it.

At that time, I didn't understand, and I buried the old way according to the rites of master and apprentice, so I forgot all about it. Only when I passed by my daughter-in-law's house and saw the big red coffin, my heart was furious, but my mother went in every morning to deliver some incense, and the next day it was brought out as it was.

Later, as I became more and more literate, I gradually understood the content of the book, which is nothing more than the art of warding off evil spirits and exorcism, and one of the most impressive is that if you want to build the avenue, you must turn to your daughter-in-law for help. But I didn't dare, a sneak peek was enough to make my heart flutter.

Now I have a small shop to seek wealth and exorcise ghosts, although it is not big but it is famous far and wide, and I know that it all has to do with marrying that daughter-in-law.

It's 10 p.m. on December 1, 2014, and it's cold in the West Market, which has snowed a bit. Outside, the street lights had gone out, and the few shops on the street were still lit, so I rubbed my hands together and pulled down the roller shutters to finish the day's work.

I went back to the single bed in the store and played with my phone for a while, and before I knew it, I fell asleep, and I don't know how long it took to hear a bang on the roller shutter.

I woke up and took off the mahogany sword hanging on the wall, tiptoed to the shutter and asked, "Who?" I'm already resting, so come tomorrow. ”

An eager female voice came from outside: "Master He, I have something urgent to find you." ”

Even though I wasn't very old, they used to call me that way many people thought I was an old man.

"Master He?"

I hesitated for a moment and thought it should not be a trivial matter, otherwise no one would want to disturb others at such a late hour; "Wait."

I put on my clothes, just in case I grabbed my mahogany sword and pushed the roller shutter halfway up, only to see a twenty-five or sixteen-year-old woman with a face full of pear blossoms and heavy makeup. He wears a white mink fur on his upper body, a small black leather skirt on his lower body, and black high-heeled leather boots that are above his knees.

The woman's appearance is okay, especially the figure is definitely first-class, but it is a little charming, and at first glance I thought it was from Fireworks Alley.

The woman saw me staring at her, holding a peachwood sword in her hand, and unconsciously took a step back and said timidly, "I'm looking for Master He." ”

I glanced at the black sedan behind her, felt that there was no danger, put away the peachwood sword, and said, "I am, just tell me if you have anything, right?" ”

The woman looked at it for a while, looked around and whispered, "Master, can I go in and say?" ”

I pushed the roller shutter a little higher, smiled as kindly as I could, and said, "Of course, please come in." ”

The woman squeezed out a smiling face and bent over with a black handbag in her left hand and walked in, and I followed in and said politely: "Just sit down, just say anything." ”

The woman answered, took out a ball of paper, wiped it on the chair, and subconsciously sat down with her hands along the small leather skirt: "Master, I have something urgent to find you." ”

I also went back to the table and sat down: "Well, please." ”

The woman stretched out her hand that had been stained with blood-red nails, took out a lady's cigarette from the cigarette case in the black leather bag, lit it and took a few puffs before saying, "Master, I would like to ask you to light an ancient oil lamp for me." ”

I made a gesture of please: "Oh? Let's hear it. ”

The woman glanced at me, put a cigarette in her mouth, took out a few stacks of money in her backpack, and said, "Master, this is a deposit of 100,000 yuan, if you light it for me, I will pay you another 200,000 yuan." ”

I asked, skeptically, "Just light the lamp?" ”

The woman nodded again and again, pinched the cigarette holder, spit out a wisp of green smoke, and said, "Just light the lamp." ”

Me: "When?" ”

"The sooner the better, preferably tomorrow." After speaking, the woman took out another business card and said, "This is my business card, I will pick you up early tomorrow morning." ”

I took a look at the business card woman Xie Hong, and the phone number behind the general manager. Then he put the money away and wrote a receipt and handed it to her: "Okay, it's a word, Manager Xie." ”

The woman smiled and took the receipt and said, "Then it's decided, Master He, you rest." ”

Then Xie Hong was sent out, and the woman got into the car and drove away. I pulled down the roller shutter and looked at my watch at 12 o'clock, then turned off the lights and fell asleep.

As soon as I opened the store the next day, I saw a black sedan parked at the door, the engine was still running, and a large amount of water was dripping from the exhaust port, and it seemed that it had been a long time.

I thought it was Xie Hong who didn't think about a man in his forties, the man's square face and lips were later, and his voice was very deep and low.

Introducing himself, Xie Hong's driver was ordered to pick me up.

I didn't ask much, I went back to the house, put on my tool kit and locked the door and followed him into the car, the man on the road didn't say a word, the car drove fast, and after a while, I saw a Western-style villa with red tiles and white walls, which was very magnificent.

The car crossed a path surrounded by green trees and stopped in front of the European-style door of the villa, I pushed the door and just got out of the car, the driver drove away, and there was no one around, so I had to call Xie Hong.

Xie Hong told me that the door was unlocked, and that I was going to go in.

I hung up the phone, walked around the flower pond and went up a few steps to push open the double glass doors, and suddenly a cold pavement came, and I couldn't help but shrink my neck to look at the hall in front of me.

The hall was empty, with marble floors and white tiles that dazzled in the light of the large chandelier. The only piece of furniture inside was an old-fashioned offering table in the middle of the hall that didn't fit in with the surrounding area.
