Chapter 170: Much Ado About Nothing
As the so-called human heart turns into ghosts, as long as people encounter these things that cannot be explained by science, they will panic, and either rush to the temple to ask for the blessing of the Bodhisattva, or come to a feng shui master like us to help resolve it. In this way, the business in our shop has gradually increased, but in fact, most of them are not really encountering any evil things, just to seek peace of mind, which is actually very easy to do, as long as we pretend to do a magic thing, and then give each other a few amulets and other gadgets, we can basically collect money. But I always feel that this kind of trickery and abduction tastes, so I generally disdain to take this kind of work, and if such a person comes to the door, I usually give a free amulet.
At first, the cheap man was very opposed to me doing this, thinking that although the amulets cost nothing, they could be sold for some money, and besides, who would want to spend any more money if the customer got the amulet for free. Therefore, he felt that not only did I not do any good to do this, but it might affect the operation of the store.
However, it didn't take long for us to find that the turnover of the shop was increasing rather than decreasing, and it was almost a geometric multiplier, which greatly surprised me, and after a period of observation, I found out that because of my free amulet, I won the favor of most of the customers, who would not only buy some other lucky items themselves, but also introduce friends and relatives to come. Even many people who have not suffered anything evil will come to our shop to buy some lucky objects for wealth or peace.
It's really unintentional to insert willows into the shade, Qibao Zhai's business is much better all of a sudden, I and the cheap are excited, although compared to helping others do things to exorcise evil spirits, these small businesses are not very profitable, and they are also busy a lot, but it feels quite fulfilling, and the most important thing is that Qibao Zhai's reputation in the provincial capital is getting louder and louder.
However, as business gradually boomed, it also caused trouble, and on this day, I was receiving a few regular customers in the store, and suddenly four or five young people came to the store. When I saw a guest coming to the door, I immediately stepped forward to greet him, but these guys were lukewarm, and they didn't pay attention to me, but just looked left and right, and looked at their posture, as if they were not good.
After all, our Qibao Zhai is opening the door to do business, since we came, there is no reason to drive them away, I barely squeezed out a smile, and asked, "What do you want to buy?" ”
One of the guys who seemed to be the leader said coldly: "You are the owner of this shop? ”
I nodded.
Unexpectedly, the other party's face immediately changed, rushed over and grabbed me by the collar, and shouted: "You charlatan! How dare you fool Lao Tzu with the things of the dead! With that, he took out a crumpled piece of yellow paper from his pocket and threw it in my face.
I immediately reacted, I was found to be wrong, but because there were other customers in the store, I suppressed the anger in my heart, picked up the rune and looked at it, only to see that there was actually a ghost charm drawn on it! The Ghost Charm is a kind of evil charm that can be used to summon lonely spirits and wild ghosts, and in ancient times, it was often used to harm people, but it is rarely seen now.
Before I could speak, the other party said: "My old man sincerely came to you to ask for a fortune charm, but you gave him such a ghost charm, causing him to be ghosted!" I only have half a life left, if I hadn't found an expert in this area, my old man would have been saved, how do you say this matter! ”
I settled down and said in a calm tone as much as possible: "This talisman is not from our Qibao Zhai, the talisman made by our Qibao Zhai, and each of them has the seal of our Qibao Zhai." ”
"Damn, my old man is asking for a talisman from you, do you still want to recognize it!? Brothers, help me smash this shop......" As soon as he finished speaking, before the guys behind him rushed forward, I grabbed his wrist holding my collar and twisted it violently, only to hear a "click", one of his arms was twisted behind him, and he immediately screamed in pain.
A guy standing next to him immediately took out a steel pipe from his waist and slashed it at my head, and I flew up, but before the other party's steel pipe could be smashed, I had already kicked it out of the store and fell to the ground.
Seeing this, the other three guys also pulled out the steel pipe and rushed over together, just these little gangsters, I was not afraid, I shouted, and fought with them with my bare hands, and when the cheap saw this, he immediately picked up a peachwood sword and rushed out of the counter to help.
After all, we have a kung fu foundation, and I have improved a lot in terms of speed and strength, which is more than enough to deal with a few gangsters. In just three or five strokes, he put several guys to the ground.
However, the glass counter of the store was also damaged, and several pieces of glass were smashed, and one of the customers was unable to dodge and his hand was scratched by broken glass.
On the other side, Wen Qingshan heard the movement and led the fat man over with the cow. Seeing this mess, he hurriedly asked, "What's going on?" ”
The cheap kicked at a guy who fell to the ground and scolded, "These guys dare to come to our store to make trouble!" ”
Wen Qingshan frowned, glanced up at the store again, and found that a customer was injured, so he immediately turned his head to Niu Fat and said, "Jun, you take these customers to the clinic next to you to order medicine." ”
Niu Fat agreed, and then stepped forward to beckon the customers who were already frightened to leave the shop.
After a few customers had gone out, I grabbed the leader by the collar, grabbed him up, and asked coldly, "Who ordered you to do this?" ”
But the guy just kept snorting and moaning and didn't answer me.
I was a little annoyed and was about to beat him, but Wen Qingshan walked over, patted me lightly on the shoulder, and said, "Let me ask him." ”
I immediately thought of the scene when Wen Qingshan interrogated Scar Qiang, at that time, Scar Qiang was much tougher than this guy, but as soon as Wen Qingshan laughed, he couldn't stand it at all, and finally had to confess obediently. It seems that Wen Qingshan is planning to repeat the old trick now.
I loosened the collar of the guy and stood aside, Wen Qingshan walked in front of him, and sure enough, he raised his hand and quickly tapped on the other party's waist, and the other party immediately fell to the ground and laughed loudly.
After laughing for a while, he couldn't do it, his facial muscles were completely distorted, his expression was extremely painful, and his body began to twitch, and his appearance was almost half the same as the scarred face back then.
Seeing that it was almost over, Wen Qingshan raised his hand and tapped his waist twice, and then he relieved his breath and lay on the ground, panting heavily.
Wen Qingshan squatted in front of him and said coldly: "If you don't tell me honestly, believe it or not, I'll make my face paralyzed with laughter!" ”
When the guy heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I...... I said, yes...... It's the Lu ...... of the Imperial Wind Pavilion Boss Lu let ...... Let's come. ”
Wen Qingshan was slightly stunned: "Imperial Wind Pavilion? Yufeng Pavilion is in the south of the city, Qibao Zhai is in the north of the city, everyone is doing their own business, why did he let you come here to make trouble? ”
The guy said, "I...... I don't know, he gave us the money, I ...... We are only responsible for doing things......"
Wen Qingshan turned his head to look at me and asked, "You have something to do with the Imperial Wind Pavilion?" ”
I shook my head: "I haven't said anything about the Imperial Wind Pavilion, do you know the cheapness?" ”
"How do I know! What is the Imperial Wind Pavilion for? ”
Wen Qingshan said: "Yufeng Pavilion is a famous feng shui shop in the south of the city, the owner is named Lu Yufeng, it is said that the ancestor is the feng shui master appointed by Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty. ”
"Since he is a famous feng shui master, how can he still use this yin trick! He actually drew a ghost charm to frame us! I said angrily.
Wen Qingshan smiled slightly and said: "As the so-called peers are like enemy countries, both of you are open feng shui shops, and the business of your shop has become more and more prosperous recently, which will inevitably cause your peers to be jealous." ”
"Damn, since he's come to the door, brother! Walk! Let's smash his shop! "The lowly seems even more resentful.
Wen Qingshan waved his hand and said, "After all, you have just gained a foothold in the provincial capital, in my opinion, it is better to turn hostility into jade silk." It won't do you any good to make too many enemies. ”
I glanced at the gangsters lying on the ground, and asked Wen Qingshan, "Boss Wen, what should these guys do?" ”
Wen Qingshan lowered his head and said coldly to the leader: "Get out!" If you dare to make trouble here again in the future, don't blame me for being rude. ”
When the guy heard this, he immediately struggled to get up, and without saying a word, he quickly led a few of his men and limped away.
Looking at the backs of a few of them who were far away, he sighed cheaply: "Just let them run away, Lao Tzu hasn't fought enough!" ”
Wen Qingshan said with a smile: "You have to be forgiving and forgiving, it's just a few little gangsters who have money to eliminate disasters for others!" ”
"Is that all there is to it?" Cheap asked.
"No!" Wen Qingshan turned to me and said, "Shi Yu, come with me." ”
"Where?"
"Go to the Imperial Wind Pavilion and ask that Lu Yufeng for an understanding!"
When he heard this, he immediately said, "I'll go too!" As he spoke, he bent down to pick up a steel pipe that the thugs had just dropped.
Seeing his posture, Wen Qingshan smiled and said, "Hehe, you should be going to fight!" Let's go to judge, not too many people! And even if it is a fight, Shi Yu and I will not suffer. ”
"What if he does some more tricks!?"
"Don't worry, he doesn't dare to play yin in front of someone Wen! Let's go! After Wen Qingshan finished speaking, he walked towards the Toyota off-road vehicle parked in front of the Guyuan Pavilion.
I turned my head and threw a sentence at the cheap: "You clean up the shop first, and if those guys come to the door later, don't fight with them!" After saying that, he quickly followed.
