Chapter 204: Trick Shop (4)
Zhu Beichen's lonely figure swims in front of the street!
July followed closely behind, looking back at Ning Yun, and a deep tacit understanding had been formed between the master and servant.
Ning Yun nodded his head in response, slowed down, and his figure disappeared into the night, walking back.
In the hostel, the chubby girl was still lying in the corner, snoring heavily.
Zhu Beichen returned to the room in silence, and pulled the quilt over to cover his head and face.
Qiyue sat worriedly at the head of the bed, caressing Zhu Beichen's head through the thick quilt, until an even breath came from the cover.
There was a slight knock on the door, and July got up knowingly, Ning Yun was already waiting outside the house.
"What's going on, is there really a problem with that shop?" July asked.
Ning Yun's face was heavy, and he said in a condensed voice: "Girl, you come with me first to see what kind of money we have collected today." β
In the other room, Ning Yun opened the box containing the money, and the brand-new hundred-yuan bill was presented in front of the two.
Ning Yun took out a stack of coins on the surface of the leather case, and there were rows of dark coins stacked terrifyingly below, and the dark coins were printed with "Heaven and Earth Bank".
July's face suddenly changed, except for the first pile of 500,000 cash, which was real money, the 250,000 below were all dark coins.
She didn't regret the expensive piece of mutton fat white jade, but she had a premonition that all kinds of ominous things had happened.
Why did Zhu Beichen suddenly get up late at night and go to that shop, now she finally figured it out.
"Ning Yun, let's go to that empty shop and have a look." July said.
There was an eerie aura in the empty shop of the Black Hole, and Ning Yun guided July to step on the dilapidated stairs to the second floor.
Light the candle at hand, and the faint light of the fire will dispel the darkness of the room.
The needles falling in the empty bunk could be heard, and only the breathing of July and Ning Yun "hissed". It sounded extraordinarily permeable, and the dim light flickered oppressively.
Ning Yun led the candlelight to a corner of a corroded wooden countertop, and said, "Girl, look, there are two paper figures here, look at their faces. β
In the faint light, the shocked faces of the two paper figures appeared in front of July's eyes.
The two papier-mΓ’chΓ© paper figures, one old and one young, were almost identical to the young man and the old man they had seen during the day, wearing a pair of papier-mΓ’chΓ© reading glasses and a magnifying glass on his left hand.
"Girl, do you think they are all ghosts?" Ning Yunsheng is a person who is sharp and unwilling to suffer, but he is afraid of encountering something that is not human.
"I now understand why the onlookers look at us so strangely during the day." July sighed.
The three of them walked into an empty shop and put on a show to entertain themselves, which seemed strange to the onlookers outside.
"It's not a ghost, it's a Maoshan light and shadow technique, we guess it's been calculated." July said.
"We were deceived into taking the mutton fat white jade?" Ning Yun instantly thought clearly.
In the dim light, there was a glittering light behind the paper figure, which attracted Ning Yun's attention.
Mutton fat white jade!
The mutton fat white jade wrapped in bright yellow satin reflects the luster of jade through the satin fabric.
Ning Yun grew his mouth in shock, denying his previous thoughts.
Why is there such a show, and what is the purpose of the people who arranged this bureau.
"Girl, look at this..."Ning Yun took the mutton fat white jade at a loss and presented it to Qiyue.
July carefully combed through his heart, and the old man and the young man exchanged a box of real banknotes with the dark coins for the mutton fat white jade.
However, the jade was left intact in the house, and it was clear that the person who performed this debut technique was not seeking money.
Zhu Beichen seemed to have a feeling in the middle of the night, got up and returned to the pawnshop, and at the same time noticed that Zhu Beichen had tears in the corners of his eyes.
Everything is connected, July suddenly realized, and said regretfully: "It's a curse or a blessing, there has been an accident in Beichen's family, half a box of real banknotes is for jade, and half a box of dark coins is for funeral." β
Someone is using the underworld coin to convey a message, and July's heart suddenly fell to the bottom.
Naturally, it was impossible for the paper man to take away the jade, so the mutton fat white jade was still left here.
"Don't tell Beichen about tonight, you can collect the money in the box first, and we will catch the train back early tomorrow morning." July said.
No matter who is calculating Beichen, I will never let him succeed, July secretly made up his mind.
The ancient town is bright, and the faint light is reflected on the blue brick ancient road.
Ning Yun was waiting on the first floor with heavy luggage, and the fat girl had already woken up.
She was especially immersed in the experience of last night, trembling in the corner.
July took Zhu Beichen's arm and slowly walked down the stairs, and the fat girl suddenly stared at her eyes in shock like a ghost, and desperately shrank into the wall.
"Hey, I said Chubby, can you stop talking so much, we didn't do anything to you." Ning Yunsheng glanced at the waiter and slapped the service desk, kicking up dust.
July let go of his hands, walked to the front of the service desk, looked directly at his eyes, and faintly used some kind of secret method: "You just had a dream last night, and you will be fine when you wake up, right?" β
The heavenly voice rippled in the fat girl's ears, her eyes were scattered, and she nodded extremely obediently: "That's right, I had a dream, and I'll be fine when I wake up." β
Zhu Beichen was depressed in the morning, but he suddenly rushed to the fat girl and asked, "You know the situation of the fourth shop on the left at the end of the street, right?" β
The fat girl looked up at Zhu Beichen suspiciously, and then at Qiyue, but Leng didn't answer.
July said, "Just answer his question." β
The fat girl tried to remember something, and said in shock: "Half a year ago, it was a dead instrument shop, selling dead people's items. β
Zhu Beichen said: "What happened later? β
"Then a fire burned down the whole shop, and the shopkeeper and his son were all burned to death. Since then, the shop has been abandoned, and no one dares to rent it. β
Hearing this, the faces of the three of them became extremely ugly.
In Jiuqu Town, there is no shop called "Integrity Pawnshop" at all.
Zhu Beichen said: "Let's go, I have a hunch that someone is waiting for me, and we are running out of time." β
At the ticket window, the conductor at the reception looked directly at the three people with strange eyes.
Zhu Beichen recognized this woman as one of the onlookers yesterday.
He smiled dismally at her, reported his destination, and asked for three tickets.
The woman was like hiding from the plague god, operating the computer quickly, and her body was unconsciously soaked in sweat.
Three train tickets came from the window, and the woman quickly withdrew her hand and buried her head under the counter.
The train started slowly, and drove off into the distance with empty carriages.
Jiuqu Ancient Town gradually disappeared behind, and the "trick shop" disappeared from the sight of the three of them.
Zhu Beichen embarked on the return journey with full of worries!
