Section 220, The Ghost Calls the Door in the Middle of the Night [Part 1]

After solving Erlangzi's case, Liu Shoucai took Guigusong and the others home. Liu Shoucai did not plan to meddle in other people's business with Zhang and Qin. After all, those two women were unintentional, and Qin also killed Erlangzi in order to protect his daughter from being beaten.

As soon as Liu Shoucai and the others left, Zhang and Qin packed up their things and left the place, because although they believed that Liu Shoucai would not report them, who knew if others would suspect anything. For this reason, the mother and daughter had to leave this place.

Liu Shoucai and the others were not aware of Zhang and Qin's departure. When they came to find Zhang and Qin's again, they realized that they had been away for a long time.

"Why did the two of them leave?"

"I guess I'm afraid of being reported, so I left. But it's better to leave. This is a place where they fear and feel sad. Leaving and living again is also a good choice."

"But people usually cannot get along with themselves and have no close relationship with the place. If they can't figure it out themselves, even if they move to the ends of the world, they will be sad for the rest of their lives."

"Okay, Xiaobai, just say less! Let's go back first."

Liu Shoucai didn't want to comment on Zhang and Qin, so he didn't want Xiaobai to keep talking, so he asked Xiaobai to go back. On the way back, Xiaobai kept saying it. Liu Shoucai finally used the method of pointing acupoints to prevent his ears from hearing for the time being, and then he was purified for a while.

Xiaobai spoke all the way, and saw that Liu Shoucai never responded to him, so he glared at Liu Shoucai in dissatisfaction. Seeing that Liu Shoucai did not respond, he realized that Liu Shoucai must have not listened to him, otherwise he would have spoken.

"Liu Shoucai, your uncle is so scammed. If you have the ability, you should never listen to me."

Xiaobai cursed angrily, and then ran away. Guigusong walked up to him and patted Liu Shoucai on the shoulder. Seeing that Xiaobai had left, Liu Shoucai regained his hearing.

"Wouldn't you be afraid that Xiaobai will take revenge on you?"

"It's not the first time. That guy is really noisy. I don't know how you can tolerate it."

Guigusong and Badou all listened to Xiaobai's long-term words from beginning to end, and Liu Shoucai admired this very much.

"We have been enduring it all the time, but fortunately Xiaobai is just talking to you. If it is talking to us, I'm afraid we will not be much better than you, and we will probably learn from you."

"Haha... I hope Xiaobai can learn a lesson this time."

"Hey, isn't that the owner of the pawn shop? Why is it at our doorstep?"

When Badou and his friends first walked to the door of Feng Shui Company, they saw the pawnshop owner standing outside the door, which made Badou immediately curious.

"Let's go and ask."

When Liu Shoucai saw the owner of the pawnshop, he walked towards him. Seeing that Liu Shoucai and the others were back, the owner of the pawnshop was immediately excited, as if he was passionate about seeing his father who had not met for many years.

"Master Liu, you are back. If you don't come back, I will be in a hurry."

"Shopkeeper, what's wrong with you? Is there anything you need to do with us?"

"Oh! Last night, I really encountered something. Erlangzi actually came to me. I was really scared to death. Master Liu, please save me! Please..."

"Don't worry, let's talk to us in detail what's going on."

Although the pawnshop owner was very eager, Liu Shoucai probably understood what he wanted to express. However, in order to find out the truth of the matter, he asked the pawnshop owner to talk about the matter in detail.

"That's right. Last night, when I went home, I just blew the light and wanted to sleep, I saw a flash of green light in front of me. Then Erlangzi appeared on the edge of my bed, not scaring me to death. He said that he stole the things he pawned in my shop and asked me to pay them back soon. He also said, if I don't pay them back, I will pester me every day.

Master Liu, tell me, he doesn’t go to his wife when he dies, what are you doing with me? I bought that thing, and it’s normal to buy it, and I didn’t rob it, why should he pester me? Master Liu, please help me drive him away! I really don’t want to see him every day.”

"The deceased is generally most reluctant to have his obsession with his life. He wanted to return my things back during his lifetime. Now that his wish has not come true, he will naturally go to you. I have no choice. After all, he did not kill or set fire. Although he was a little thief, I can't beat him to death because of this!"

"What should I do? Master Liu, aren't you who promised to catch ghosts and subdue demons? Why can't Erlangzi be subdued? Was it just because he sold your things? I gave him a lot of money at the beginning. I couldn't make a penny, and I even paid back it, right?"

The shopkeeper was so irreverent, so he really couldn't accept such things. Seeing the shopkeeper's attitude, Liu Shoucai was too lazy to take care of him. Such a person who regarded money more important than life was really not worth his energy to help.

"You'd better go back! We can't help you. We usually subdue those things according to their wishes, not just randomly."

As Liu Shoucai said that, he acted as if he wanted to drive away the shopkeeper. Seeing that Liu Shoucai had already driven people, he finally shook his head helplessly and left. If he really asked him to return the things for free, it would be impossible for him. Since Liu Shoucai was unwilling to help him, he could only find other masters to help now.

The shopkeeper wandered around the street and finally saw an old Taoist priest setting up a stall. The old Taoist priest had a kind face and fluttered clothes. He looked like a master at first glance.

"Master, please save me! A ghost appeared in my place. He said he would pester me every day, but I really had no choice."

"Catch ghosts and demons at once and have a 100-two silver pattern, which is not a 20% discount. If you agree, I will go with you. If you don't agree, you can find someone else!"

The old Taoist priest said lightly, and then continued to shake the fan in his hand. The weather was too hot and there was no wind blowing, so he could only use artificial wind to lower the temperature for himself.

"It's easy to say, after the matter is done, I will offer you another 100 taels. Taoist priest, please come with me."

After hearing the old Taoist priest say such a low price, the shopkeeper immediately smiled and started to laugh. He had known that he would not have gone to find Liu Shoucai just now. After all, the things he got were a hundred taels. If he really returned them for nothing, he would not feel sorry for him.

After the old Taoist priest followed the shopkeeper to the pawnshop, he immediately frowned, "You are so yin here! I want to increase the price."

"What? Price increase? Master Taoist, didn't you just say the price of the price? Why did you suddenly raise the price again?"

When the shopkeeper heard the old Taoist priest say that the price was raised, he immediately became alert, fearing that he would shout a few hundred taels more when he was on the ground. Although he didn't take these hundreds taels seriously, for the stingy iron cockerel, this money was his heart!

"Your yin energy is too heavy, and the ghost who pesters you is unjustly killed, so he is very resentful. If you want to conquer him, I have to spend a lot of energy. I can't buy a 100-two pill of energy that I can replenish. You can do it yourself whether to subdue that ghost! I would like to remind you that the longer the ghost survives, the higher his magic power will be. If I lose to you, don't say I'll cheat you of money."

The old Taoist priest originally thought that the shopkeeper was just an ordinary family, so he didn't ask for so much money. But now after he came to the pawnshop, he immediately divided the shopkeeper into rich people, so he suddenly raised the price. Of course, he was just talking nonsense about the yin energy that was too heavy.

The shopkeeper closed his eyes and calmed down after seeing the old Taoist priest saying that, and his heart immediately became confused. However, when he thought of Erlangzi pestering him every day, he finally agreed helplessly.

"Master, how much do you want? Please give me a good price!"

"Three thousand taels, no less than a penny."

"Three thousand taels? Then you might as well go and grab it."

The shopkeeper originally thought that the old Taoist priest would raise the price to 500 taels, but he didn't expect that he would call 3,000 taels at a price, which immediately made the shopkeeper very angry. The one that had originally agreed to have turned 3,000 taels, and he was really heartbroken!

"Even if you are not happy, I didn't force you to come with a knife. Do you want to catch a ghost? You can do it yourself and waste my time."

The old Taoist priest snorted coldly and turned around and left. Seeing that the old Taoist priest turned around and left, the shopkeeper was so scared that he quickly stopped him.

"Master, please don't leave. Let's discuss it carefully. How about a thousand taels? Don't look at my store, but many of them are mortgaged at a low price. They redeem them later. There are also many fakes, which are not valuable. I really can't get three thousand taels for a while. At most, I can only take out one thousand taels. No matter how much, there is really no more."

The shopkeeper naturally cannot be really poor. The reason why he said he was so pitiful was that he hoped to make the old Taoist priest ask for less money. After all, those are his hard-earned money, all accumulated, and they did not fall out of thin air, so naturally they could not afford the old Taoist priest.

"The minimum price cannot be less than two thousand taels, otherwise everything will be free from negotiations."

The old Taoist priest gave the lowest price in his heart. After hearing this, the shopkeeper still felt much more relaxed, but he lost one thousand taels.

"That's it, I will ask someone to raise money to you as soon as possible, Taoist priest, then when will you start catching ghosts?"

"It's OK tonight, but you have to help me prepare incense tables, candles, paper money and other things. I'll make a list of details later. You ask someone to buy it according to the above."

"Okay, then I'll bother you, Taoist priest."

After the old Taoist priest agreed to help the shopkeeper catch the ghost, the shopkeeper no longer continued to be frowning. At this time, he had already forgotten Liu Shoucai, but Liu Shoucai and the others were still waiting for the shopkeeper to go back to find them again.

"This shopkeeper has been away for so long, why haven't he come back to find us?" Liu Shoucai couldn't help but ask Gui Gusong.

"I guess he has to think about it again! Maybe he is really looking for other strangers in the world. There are many strangers in this town. Although they are all cheating money, the shopkeeper cannot tell the truth. He will probably turn back after he suffers."

Guigusong looked confident, and Liu Shoucai felt a little depressed when he saw it. Such Guigusong always seized the halo of others, and Liu Shoucai didn't like it very much.

"Brother Guigu, can't you pretend that you don't know anything at once? Really, will I die at once?"

"If you give up, you will really die. You are not a weak person. Why should I give in to you? General, you lost again."

After Guigusong put down his last chess piece, Liu Shoucai was again defeated by the general. Because the shopkeeper was bored, Liu Shoucai and Guigusong began to play chess. However, they did not expect that he had lost chess with Guigusong and had never won a game.

"No, it's true. Every time you win, you have no meaning at all. You won so many games, aren't boring? This is playing chess! There are both wins and losses, which is fun!"

"But I just like to win, not lose, there is no way, I have this personality and I can't change it in my life, so you can save worry!"

Guigusong smiled, then put away the chess piece. Liu Shoucai sat in the yard for a while, and saw that the shopkeeper had not come yet, so he simply stopped waiting for him.

"That guy probably won't come today. Forget it, let's go back first! I'm impatient when I waited for him. It's true that that kind of person seems to be really not worth our rescue."

Liu Shoucai was angry and didn't want to wait any longer. Gui Gusong actually didn't want to wait for the shopkeeper. He just saw that Liu Shoucai was willing to wait, so he waited with him for so long. Badou had already had a sleep at this time.

Just now, Liu Shoucai and Guigu Matsu were playing chess. He was idle alone and had nothing to do, so he sat under the vagina and took a nap for a while. After yawning, Badou then stood up and walked out of the Feng Shui company with his waist stretched.

Just when Liu Shoucai and the others came to the road, they saw the shopkeeper standing with an old Taoist priest and talking. Without guessing, they knew that the shopkeeper must be greedy for cheapness, so they found such a fake Taoist priest on the street.

The reason why Liu Shoucai saw at a glance that the old Taoist priest was a fake Taoist priest was because the Taoist priest had no spiritual energy on his body and was surrounded by death. At a glance, he knew that he was an old man who was in his life. How could such a person be a real Taoist priest?

"It seems that this guy is really going to lose money this time."

"It's right to destroy the disaster, but after the money is lost, the disaster has not been eliminated, so it's a joke. This is his life! He is destined to suffer this disaster, so why should we care? He doesn't believe it anyway."

"So do we need to help him?"

"When he comes to us, I'll help you! Don't worry now."

Liu Shoucai smiled faintly, then turned around and went back. Guigusong and Badou looked on the street for a while. Seeing that the shopkeeper had negotiated the price with the old Taoist priest, he turned around and left. Anyway, at night, the shopkeeper would know the true and false identity of the old Taoist priest, so he was not in a hurry to expose the identity of the old Taoist priest.

Because Erlangzi's soul will not attack the shopkeeper for the time being, Liu Shoucai and the others will naturally not worry about anything. If Erlangzi's soul had become a ghost and was a special kind of harming people, Liu Shoucai and the others had already destroyed him, so how could they talk to the shopkeeper about any conditions?

"The shopkeeper and the old Taoist priest have negotiated a price. They are going to catch ghosts tonight. Should we go and see the fun? Anyway, we have nothing to do at night, so it's good to go and see the fun."

"Yes, let's go and have a look at the fun that night! Anyway, it's important to chat at home."

Liu Shoucai smiled, then had dinner with Gui Gusong and others and then rested for a while. When night fell, Liu Shoucai and others hid, and then quietly lurked into the pawnshop owner's home.

"Master, you're ready for everything. Are you going to start now? Do you need me to help you?"

After the things were ready, the shopkeeper went to tell the old Taoist priest that after the old Taoist priest had finished drinking tea, he got up and walked to the incense table to check it out. Seeing that the things were all ready, he smiled faintly.

"Let's start now! Avoid the nights long and dreams. You don't need to help, just stand aside. Come and take this talisman. This talisman can protect you from being attacked by evil ghosts. If the evil ghost appears in front of you, you can directly use this talisman to stick it on him, which will make his soul scatter."

"Thank you, Taoist priest."

After hearing the Taoist priest's words, the shopkeeper immediately took the Taoist talisman as a treasure and put it in close contact. This was also to prevent himself from tearing the talisman paper apart because he was too scared or nervous. After the old Taoist priest picked up the bell from the incense table, he began to shake it, and then he read something in his mouth that even the ghost could not understand.

Then he began to jump around in the yard, just like those who danced the gods. Seeing Liu Shoucai, he couldn't help laughing. Fortunately, they all disappeared and spoke with breathing. Otherwise, this smile would definitely scare everyone in the yard.

"I really didn't expect that the old Taoist priest was so chaotic. He was so old and he was not afraid of being able to breathe because of the difficulty."

"As these days, fake Taoist priests are getting harder to get through. If they don't make some tricks of fooling people, how could they let them pay for it voluntarily? But this fake Taoist priest doesn't know that they really encountered a ghost this time."

"It's really not in vain tonight! I watched a funny dancer for free. Look at the old Taoist priest's face, it's already red. How long do you think he can last?"

"I guess it won't last long. With just his strength, he can only hold on for half an hour and it's done. But this time is not the time for ghosts to appear!"
