296 The Talking Bones(2/3)
"I don't know, we don't know how long it has been buried under the ground. But I remember the willow tree in front, which I planted by myself at that time. I remember that when we died, the willow tree had been three years."
After hearing the useful news, Liu Shoucai quickly asked the second child to ask about the willow tree's age. The second child quickly asked about the result.
"Master, the willow tree said it has been alive for five years now. It said it knows when it happened in this village. Two years ago, a Taoist priest came to this village and said that it could change the feng shui of this village, make those people live forever, and make them together for generations.
Later, the villagers believed it and warmly welcomed the Taoist priest, but the Taoist priest had no good intentions at all. When everyone was sleeping at night, he secretly ran to the girls' room to ruin the girls, and then killed the villagers.
The Taoist priest knew some magic. In order to prevent those dead people from turning into evil spirits and causing trouble for him, he put a talisman on them. Then the village was buried under the ground by him using magic. After two years of precipitation, the talisman changed, so it became a mass grave today, and the bones also changed."
"So that's the case. Go and see what that Taoist priest looks like. I will definitely not make him look good."
Liu Shoucai snorted coldly. He really hated those shameless Taoist priests. People like that should be called demonic Taoism. Like the subordinates of the man in black, they were not good things before. Of course, he was not good things now.
The second brother ran over to inquire again. Soon, the second brother drew the appearance of the Taoist priest on paper. However, when he saw the appearance of the Taoist priest, Liu Shoucai and Badou were both stunned.
"Damn, why is Fang Bei's master? Is it really him?"
Liu Shoucai had seen Master Fang Bei's appearance, of course, not real people, but in Fang Bei's mobile phone album, when he was in Maoshan.
"Can they be two people who look the same? There are so many people who look very similar in this world, and many of them have nothing to do with it."
"It's hard to say, Fang Bei's master is dead, unless he comes to summon the soul to ask."
"Then come and see what he said. If it wasn't for him, then we don't have to be too sad. If it was really his evil, then he should have tasted the bitter fruit he made."
"That's right, Badou Xiaobai, we will start preparing for the soul-summoning ceremony."
Liu Shoucai didn't want to continue wasting time, so he started to summon souls. Soon, Fang Bei's master was recruited. After seeing Liu Shoucai and the others, Fang Bei's master looked confused.
"What are you asking me for?"
"Master, we want to know if you did what you did in this village back then?"
Liu Shoucai told the story of what happened in this village. After hearing this, Fang Bei's master looked around a few more times. When he saw the bones all over the ground, he sighed.
"Oh! I was also confused by lard back then. Because of my temporary greed, I made such a big mistake. The old man could have lived to be a hundred years old because of this, so I committed God's punishment and lived in a daze for two years."
"Damn it, how could you do such a hateful thing? Didn't you think about God's punishment when you did this?"
Badou looked angry. He just prayed that it was not Fang Bei's business, but he didn't expect that it was really a crime for Fang Bei to do. Now he really regretted helping Fang Bei before. This master is not a good thing, so how good can the disciple be?
"I'm sorry, it's my fault. I regret it now. I'm suffering every day in the underworld. If time can go back, I will definitely not do such a creepy thing. Master Liu, I have heard of your reputation in the underworld. I hope you can let those people rest. If I still have the next life, I will definitely be a cow and a horse to repay you, and I will also atone for the mistakes I have made in this life."
"Hmph! It would be strange if someone like you can have the next life."
Liu Shoucai's tone was very cold. He shook his hand and knocked over the soul-suming incense burner. As soon as the incense burner fell to the ground, Master Fang Bei's soul returned to its original position. The bones all gritted their teeth. It seemed that they really resented Master Fang Bei.
"Master, please help us! Let that hateful Taoist priest go to the eighteen levels of hell!"
"He is already in hell, and you have to go down with him. As for what happens after going down, it depends on how deep your own obsession is. Although you have suffered such great grievances in your life, as long as you let go of your obsession, you will definitely be born in a good family in the next life.
Of course, if you can't let go of your obsession, you can only suffer in hell like that Taoist priest until you let go of your obsession. What should you choose? I hope you can all be more rational, and I also hope you can be better off."
"Thank you, Master, we know what to do, please help us go to the underworld!"
The souls of those bones were possessed, so Liu Shoucai had to lead the way to reach the underworld. Liu Shoucai originally wanted to help them, so he did not feel embarrassed and directly sent them to the underworld with the guide talisman.
After the bones returned to ordinary bones, Xiaobai and Lu Gui used magic to rebury them. Xia Xiaojiu kept watching. After the matter was successful, she ran over.
"Liu Shoucai, it's really good! Thank you this time, I'll treat you to dinner another day."
"It's not necessary to eat. Do you want to go back with us? You have been away for a long time. Don't you go back to see your father?"
"Of course I have to go back. My dad called yesterday and said he was going to attend an auction and wanted to buy something very important, but he was worried that the thing was fake, so he wanted to ask you to help, but he was embarrassed to call you.
I originally thought I would go back to find you today, but I knew that this happened when I got here, but it would be fine if you came. I told you in person that the auction will be the day after tomorrow, so Liu Shoucai, you must help my father."
Xia Xiaojiu pulled Liu Shoucai's clothes with a stern face and refused to let him go. Although Liu Shoucai was helpless, he still agreed. He also wanted to attend the auction because he still had many antiques on his hands. He got so many treasures back a thousand years ago, so it was time to auction a few.
Because the money used now is different from the gold and silver used a thousand years ago, Liu Shoucai also had to exchange for some money. Although he has so many treasures now, he is all hard-earned goods and cannot be used directly.
"Okay, I agree. Actually, I'm looking for an auction house recently. I have a few antiques that need to be auctioned, all of which are treasures from thousands of years ago, and they are almost all royal items in the palace."
"It's great. I asked my dad to contact the auction house for you. By the way, remember to take a photo of your stuff first, and I'll pass it to my dad, and let my dad pass it to the people in the auction house. They will estimate the value based on the value of the baby and then give you the auction position."
"Then the relationship is good. After I go back, I will get a photo."
Because there is still time, Liu Shoucai is not in a hurry, but he can't choose to take the bus when he goes back. After all, it's really slow, and he has seen the scenery along the way. If he sees too much, his eyes will feel tired.
After taking Xia Xiaocai back to the city, Liu Shoucai opened the Qiankun bag and took out a few expensive treasures from it. Xia Xiaojiu saw that the things Liu Shoucai took out were all genuine, and looked envious.
"Liu Shoucai, I really didn't expect that you were so rich. These things are as rich as the country. No wonder you don't have to be busy making money now. Alas! You are really poor now and only money left. Liu Shoucai, why don't you support me!"
"Where I go there, I don't raise a tigress. I want my life to be more peaceful."
"Liu Shoucai, are you looking for death?"
Xia Xiaojiu was so furious that Liu Shoucai teased. She disliked others saying that she was a tigress, especially Liu Shoucai said that Xia Xiaojiu chased Liu Shoucai and circled around the room, and Badou shook his head helplessly.
"Xiaobai, do you think they look like enemies?"
"It's really alike."
Xiaobai laughed twice, and Badou laughed, slandering Liu Shoucai, but they were not guilty at all. There was no way, who said they were Liu Shoucai's bad friends?
After Xia Xiaojiu chased Liu Shoucai for a while, she returned to the table and sorted out the treasures. Liu Shoucai took three treasures, one from the agate vase from the palace, one from the night pearl, and one from the jade gourd. The value of these three treasures has exceeded the value of all treasures at this auction.
"Liu Shoucai, I think you can open an auction yourself. You have so many treasures, even if you sell one a month, you will never be able to sell it in your entire life."
"Xia Xiaojiu, am I so prodigal? Good things must be left to the next generation as family heirlooms. Besides, I am not so prodigal. I am selling all valuable things. I am not very short of money now. Besides, selling these three treasures will be enough for me to spend my whole life."
"Okay, just pretend I didn't say anything, and I knew I couldn't tell you clearly."
Xia Xiaojiu glared at Liu Shoucai, and then after Liu Shoucai took photos, Xia Xiaojiu went home. When Xia Xiaojiu returned home, he immediately showed Xia Shimao the photo that Liu Shoucai had passed on to him.
"Dad, how do you look at these three treasures? It's good!"
"Is this... all this true?"
Xia Shimao also learned to appraise treasures for several years, so when he saw the three treasures in the photo, he immediately couldn't take his eyes off.
"Of course it's true. This was something Liu Shoucai asked me to give you, saying hello to the auction. He will also attend the auction the day after tomorrow. These three treasures will be taken to auction."
"Ask him, can he sell these treasures to his father? These are cultural relics unearthed for thousands of years! By the way, where did he come from?"
"What do you ask about this? Dad, don't be greedy, don't forget what you did at the auction this time. Don't think about these three treasures."
"Oh! Forget it, I don't have that much liquidity either. My dad immediately called the auction. These photos were passed on to my dad's mobile phone, and my dad passed them there."
"Okay."
Xia Xiaojiu smiled and passed the photo to Xia Shimao. Xia Shimao quickly contacted the auction house there. When the photo was passed, the other side quickly replied to the information, just like what Xia Shimao asked Xia Xiaojiu before, they were asking if the thing was real.
After Xia Shimao replied to the message, it took a long time for him to reply to the message and asked Xia Shimao to give him the contact information of the treasure owner. Xia Shimao did not hide his own personal information. After sending Liu Shoucai's message, he took Xia Xiaojiu out for dinner.
Liu Shoucai had sorted out his things and just wanted to go for dinner, he received a call from an unfamiliar one. Because of curiosity, Liu Shoucai pressed the hands-free button.
"Hey, who?"
"Is it Mr. Liu Shoucai? I am David, the head of the peacekeeping auction house. It is Mr. Xia Shimaoxia who gave me your contact information. I heard that you are going to auction three treasures unearthed for thousands of years."
"Hello Mr. David, Mr. Xia is right. You have received photos of my treasures!"
"Yes, I have received it. I just want to make sure that those three treasures are all genuine? We don't accept fakes here."
"Don't worry, these three treasures of mine are all authentic products inherited from generation to generation. You can find an expert to identify them at any time."
"Do you have time tomorrow? I will bring experts here for identification tomorrow."
“What time?”
"Tomorrow is 10:30 noon."
"Okay, I'll be waiting for you at home at 10:30 tomorrow."
Liu Shoucai gave his address to David, then chatted with him for a few more words and hung up the phone. The things could be auctioned off. Naturally, he was very happy because it means he had money to get it again, and after this time, he would have endless money to spend.
"Liu Shoucai, do you really want to sell those things? Don't regret it again then."
"What are you going to regret? These three things are the worst ones in my Qiankun bag and the most valuable ones. My Qiankun bag is going to be filled. If you have time, you can help me organize it. Don't forget that you all eat mine, live in mine, and take mine, and don't be lazy."
"I know, Mr. Landlord."
Xiaobai and Badou rolled their eyes one after another. They were speechless about Liu Shoucai, the landlord. Of course, they also hoped that Liu Shoucai would always be the local owner, because in this way, they would not have to worry about food and accommodation. Anyway, they would be happy and relaxed with Liu Shoucai.
David brought people to Liu Shoucai on time the next day. Because David had seen Liu Shoucai's photos, he recognized Liu Shoucai as soon as he came to Liu Shoucai.
"Hello, Mr. Liu, I am David, this is Master Lin Changjiang, a treasure appraiser."
"I'll be lucky. I'll sit here. I thought you'll have to wait a while before you come."
"Haha... we made an appointment, and we would not be late unless there is a major event."
David and Liu Shoucai made some polite tricks, and Liu Shoucai asked Badou to take out the three treasures. After the treasure appraisal master saw the treasure, his eyes were placed on the treasure, and he couldn't bear to let go of the treasure for a long time. Seeing the treasure appraisal master, David also knew in his heart that the treasure was genuine, otherwise the treasure appraisal master would not have revealed that kind of application.
"Liu Shoucai, I wonder if you have any of this authentic product? We will give you the most reasonable price."
"Sorry, my ancestors passed down a few pieces. I left a few pieces as heirlooms, and these three pieces were evenly produced."
"Oh! That's it! Can you open your eyes?"
David didn't give up, and Liu Shoucai smiled. He didn't want to show David those things because those are more valuable than the three items held by the treasure appraiser, and they are all priceless treasures. If you take them out, you can't estimate them.
"Forget it! I really leave those things for my descendants, and it's not convenient to take them out, I'm sorry."
