Chapter 17 Getting Ready

Fortunately, after what happened in my hometown, I exercised more diligently than before, so my physical strength is much better now than before, and I probably woke up soon.

It's still dark yet.

Only then did I have time to take out the flashlight in my bag and start looking back. After a while, I found Lu Changjian lying on the ground with his eyes rolled.

I checked his whole body, and there was nothing wrong with him. There was only a "ghost handprint" on the ankle where he was caught before.

It seems that he just fainted from fright. He looked tall and strong, but in fact he was not very courageous. He fainted after being frightened by that thing.

"Wake up, wake up!"

After calling him several times, he didn't respond. It seemed that he could only become more violent.

I found a bottle of mineral water from my bag, took two sips, and poured the rest on his face.

"Ahem..." After being splashed with water, he immediately sat up and said, "Ah! There's a ghost! Help!"

Then he looked around, and then looked at me with a confused expression: "Little boss... I just remembered that I was caught by that guy, so have I already..."

I quickly covered his mouth: "Don't talk nonsense, we are both still alive."

Now in the middle of the night, in the wilderness, what if I say some unlucky words and attract other things?

He trembled and looked at the surrounding environment: "Little boss... what should we do now? There are no cars in this wilderness. If that thing comes to catch us again, it will be over."

I sighed. On the way here, this man boasted about how brave he was, but now it was better. He was as weak as a quail.

"It's okay, he probably won't come. He is an earth-binder and can't leave the house too far."

After hearing what I said, Lu Changjian breathed a sigh of relief. I helped him stand up and walked towards the lights in front.

We were lucky, this place is a small temple. A place with incense and dirty things can't get close to it, so we spent the rest of the night safely in their care.

I said goodbye to Lu Changjian at dawn. In his condition, I needed to go to the coffin shop to prepare some utensils.

But he insisted on following me, so I had no choice but to take him back to my house first. It happened that my father hadn’t gone out yet, so I gave him a cup of tea.

As soon as Lu Changjian saw his father, he stepped forward and said, "Boss Xu! Think of a way... something happened to the coffin you sold us!"

After saying that, my father was stunned and glanced at me, and I could only shrug.

Then I heard the man in front of me, who was still calling me brother last night, now tearfully describing last night's experience to my father. While adding fuel to the fire, he also made me sound useless and the one who was holding me back.

This guy is really a villain.

I secretly made a note for him.

"Boss Xu, your son is really useless. Can you consider helping yourself? I can give you more money!"

After hearing this, Dad was very embarrassed: "This... Boss Lu, you have also seen that I am disabled now and can't help you. What's more, Xiaozhi's ability is much greater than mine, so you should trust him."

Hearing what his father said, Lu Changjian had a look of surprise and embarrassment on his face.

He had just said something bad in front of me, and now he had to find a way to come back, and the expression on his face changed several times.

Finally, he forced out an awkward smile and asked me: "Little boss...Brother Zhi! I..."

My mind changed, I might as well trick him now!

I said calmly: "It's okay. I understand that you want the matter to be resolved quickly. The first problem now is that you need to call all your relatives, children and grandchildren to the mourning hall. You have to talk to your biological father face to face about this matter."

clear."

After hearing what I said, Lu Changjian's face turned dark immediately, and he was obviously still scared.

No one would want to have the experience last night again.

Seeing how scared he was, I smiled knowingly, took out a talisman I drew, handed it to him and said, "I know you are worried that something might happen if you go back. Let's do this. I have a talisman drawn by my master here. You can take it back."

Carry it with you to keep you safe."

Sure enough, Lu Changjian was immediately happy and reached out his hand to take the "spiritual talisman".

But I stopped my hand and let him take it for free: "Hey, but I can't give you this magic talisman for free, right? You see..."

Lu Changjian understood immediately and asked, "Brother Zhi, tell me, how much does it cost?"

"Fifty thousand, a spiritual talisman. When the talisman is with you, it will transport evil spirits and keep you safe."

Hearing the price, Lu Changjian's brows suddenly knitted together.

Fifty thousand! Although he can indeed take out the fifty thousand now, but just such a light paper charm...

Seeing that he was hesitating, I made a show of putting away the paper charm: "It seems like Boss Lu doesn't need it, so forget it. You can go and do your work now. We will meet again at the mourning hall at noon today."

"By the way, I remember that your ankle was grabbed by that thing before, and there were ghost fingerprints on it. You must be careful, he has already set his sights on you."

After hearing this, he immediately lifted up his trousers, and sure enough, there was a green to black mark on them, but he didn't feel it at all.

Suddenly Lu Changjian panicked: "Wait! Brother Zhi, I...I want it! Please give me the magic talisman."

Then I nodded with satisfaction.

After that, I transferred the money and delivered the goods. My father confirmed that he had received 50,000 yuan in his account, so I gave him the "talisman".

He sent me to the door of the coffin shop, and then left with a lot of thanks.

Before entering, I looked specifically at the incense ashes at the door.

Well, there is no sign of increase, it seems that the brat is not coming back.

If I hadn't been busy now, I should have sprinkled clean salt and glutinous rice on the door again just in case.

Without the tow tank, I packed up my things much faster. It was not yet noon when I packed up my things and took a taxi to the villa again, but now there were obviously a lot of people gathered inside.

As soon as Lu Changjian saw me getting off the bus, he immediately came forward: "Brother Zhi, you're here! We've been waiting here for a while. Come and talk to them about the situation."

Just when I walked in front of everyone, a sharp female voice shouted: "Brother, is this the master you are talking about? Why is he still a little kid?"

This was a woman with thick makeup on her face. When she spoke, the thin man next to her who looked similar to Lu Changjian frowned visibly.

This family seems to be Lu Changye.

On the other side, Lu Changfu, who looked potbellied, immediately echoed: "Brother, we came here because you said something big happened to dad. I turned down hundreds of thousands of business deals to come to you. Are you kidding me?"
