The panda slapped the thief on the back of the head.

The thief stumbled, almost fell to the ground, and hurriedly begged for mercy: "Two grandfathers spare their lives, I was wrong, am I wrong?" โ€

Panda has to fight again, because Panda told me before that there is an old saying in their security industry, that is, three slaps can draw out a truth.

That is to say, this kind of thief must be scared, will tell the truth, if the fight is not in place, ask directly, often can't ask the truth.

So I watched the thief get slapped by the panda for the remaining two slaps.

The thief was beaten with gold stars in his eyes, and kept begging for mercy, and when the panda was finished, I asked, "You also stole the previous golden Buddha?" โ€

The thief looked aggrieved and said in a low voice: "Two grandfathers, I can't call it stealing when I do this, I just invited the Buddha home for two days, and did something in this community, and when I finished my work, I will send the Buddha back......"

I was confused by what the thief said, and I looked at the panda and felt that there must be something wrong with it.

"Why do you want to invite the Buddha back to your house? What are you going to do in this community? I asked again.

The thief said with a mysterious face: "This is a secret...... Second master, I advise you not to ask, right? โ€

Before the words fell, the panda used force in his hand, almost removing half of this guy's arm.

The thief grinned in pain, and then said, "Stop, stop...... Second master, I can't admit it? I told you that it was not possible yet? โ€

As he spoke, he said in a low voice: "You may not know much about it, this community is a ghost gate, in the past, it was a mass grave, gathering yin qi all year round, and there are many lonely souls and wild ghosts......"

I snorted coldly and said, "I know this, you don't have to talk nonsense." โ€

"Huh?" The thief smiled: "I didn't expect the two masters to walk with me?" That's really clumsy, I've never seen such a delicate peer......"

I said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense, tell me what you asked the Buddha to go back for." โ€

The thief continued: "Actually, it's easy to say, there is a golden Buddha in the community, and the lonely ghosts don't dare to come out, but I urgently need to catch one or two ghosts to go home these days...... Therefore, I can only wronged the Buddha to leave this community first, so that the wild ghosts in the community can be released and let me capture them. โ€

When I heard this, I broke out in a cold sweat, could it be that the thief in front of me, who was not amazing, was actually a ghost-hunting celestial master?

"You mean you're here to hunt ghosts?" I asked.

The thief nodded: "Yes, in order to catch ghosts, I just invited the Buddha home, a few days ago I finally sent the Buddha away, the lonely ghosts in the community ran out, I didn't expect a golden Buddha to suddenly appear today, scared those outcropping lonely ghosts and wild ghosts to hide again, I can only ask him to go again......"

The panda frowned and asked, "Isn't it a good thing that there is a golden Buddha in this community, and the lonely souls and wild ghosts dare not come out to harm people?" Why do you have to take the Golden Buddha away, release these lonely souls and wild ghosts and catch them one by one, aren't you taking off your pants and farting, doing this more? โ€

The thief smiled and said, "That's a long story, otherwise, the two masters go to my house to sit down, we don't know each other, talk while talking, just let the two of you see that I am indeed not a thief who steals......"

Panda and I didn't expect this guy to invite me to his house, could it be that this guy has a trap and ambush at home, just waiting for us to throw ourselves into the net?

I looked at the panda, and the panda nodded at me.

Anyway, the panda artist is bold, even if there is really an ambush in the thief's house, the dozen or so people who are idle are really not necessarily the opponents of the panda.

The panda let go of the hand that grabbed the thief's arm, and the thief had no intention of running away, but turned around and stretched out his hand to us and said: "We are all brothers in the society, it is better to make friends with multiple enemies, my surname is Zhao, my name is Zhao Tiezhu, you just call me Zhuzi." โ€

A name that is very characteristic of the northern countryside, and it complements his strong accent.

I nodded, shook his outstretched hand, and introduced myself to him. Although this guy looks a little obscene, his style of action is quite a bit above board, in short, he is much more refreshing than people with high social status like Tang Xiaobo or Guo Jiaji.

Zhao Tiezhu was very hospitable, walking in front with the Golden Buddha in his arms, and also bought two catties of oranges on the road. He said that he didn't have any fruit at home, but since he was going to receive us two distinguished guests, he naturally had to make offerings.

Panda and I never let our guard down against him, even if my intuition told me that Zhao Tiezhu was a real person, but after all, he did things too weirdly.

Zhao Tiezhu had a good impression of me and the panda, and kept saying along the way: "To say shameless, in fact, I am quite knowledgeable, the two of them are not idle people at first glance, to say irresponsible, I think the two will definitely become heroes who dominate one side in the future!" โ€

The panda and I laughed without saying a word, and followed Zhao Tiezhu to a dilapidated rental house at least three stops away from the community.

Zhao Tiezhu took us into the courtyard of the rental house, the neighbors seemed to be very friendly to this Zhao Tiezhu, nodding frequently to say hello, Zhao Tiezhu walked while distributing the oranges in his hand to the acquaintances who met, before he arrived home, the two catties of oranges had almost been astigmatized.

Zhao Tiezhu looked back at us apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, I bought less." โ€

Following Zhao Tiezhu into the door, his house was a rather dilapidated and cramped room, and he saw a golden Buddha enshrined on the table, which should be the one that disappeared before the community.

"You see, the Buddha in the community was enshrined here by me, and I didn't resell it, and I will send it back in a few days." Zhao Tiezhu said with a smile.

The panda and I barely sat on the so-called "sofa" of Zhao Tiezhu's house, and when we saw that the Golden Buddha was safe and sound as Zhao Tiezhu said, our hearts were steady.

I finally had a good impression of Zhao Tiezhu, handed over a cigarette, and said, "Then tell us why you want to invite the Golden Buddha away and provoke the ghosts in the community, right?" โ€

Zhao Tiezhu took the cigarette, glanced down, lit it and smoked it, and said, "Hey, in a word, for life...... You guys haven't been in Sioux City for a long time, right? I don't think you know much about this. โ€

I nodded slightly, not in denial.

Zhao Tiezhu smiled slightly, smoked a cigarette, and took out a piece of blood-red jade from his pocket with his backhand, and asked in a low voice: "Since they are all peers, I will get straight to the point, have you ever raised ghosts?" โ€

As he spoke, Zhao Tiezhu handed me the blood-red jade in his hand, and I took it and took a look, only to feel that the jade tentacles were cold, and it didn't seem to be hot.

Jade is the most spiritual, and the general jade will merge with the body's body temperature and become warm after being placed in the hand for a while, so there is often a saying that "warm and moist like jade".

However, Zhao Tiezhu's red jade has no such effect, I have held it in my hand for so long, but it is always cold and cold, and the cold is pressing.

I have seen a description of this kind of jade in the notes of the big shopkeeper before, this should be called blood jade, it is the burial jade that was held in the mouth by them after the death of dignitaries in the past, or sealed in chrysanthemums to prevent the corpse from decomposing, part of which absorbed the soul of the deceased, and the jade itself would turn red, and the brighter the color, the more soul it absorbed.

And more importantly, this kind of jade is a natural nest for lonely ghosts, which is very suitable for ghosts that linger on it......

"Raising ghosts? Sorry, I didn't raise it. I shook my head and said, returning the valuable blood jade in my hand to Zhao Tiezhu.

Zhao Tiezhu smiled, took back the blood jade, and said, "Those two should know what this thing I showed you is, right?" โ€

"Blood Jade." I nodded.

"Sure enough, it's a peer." Zhao Tiezhu showed a look of admiration: "I'm not afraid of the two jokes when I say it, I actually raise ghosts all year round, this is an ancestral craft, and it is also my current livelihood...... The community just now is a ghost gate, and there are a lot of high-quality ghosts in it, and I make a living by raising ghosts, so I naturally need to catch these ghosts all year round. And only by inviting the Buddha to go can these powerful ghosts be released, now you understand the reason why I asked the Buddha to leave, right? โ€

After listening quietly, I was still puzzled and asked him, "Can raising ghosts bring you benefits?" Why raise ghosts? Forgive me for being so ignorant, I've never heard of such a thing......"
