There are ghosts

Chapter 48 Antique Store

Eight o'clock in the morning, the hotel.

knock --

...Well, the person curled up in the quilt squirmed a bit and fell asleep.

... There was a momentary silence outside the door.

Knock knock knock knock——! ! !

"Fuck!" Su Bai suddenly sat up from the bed, the resentment on his face was comparable to that of a ghost in a ghost movie, and he got up fiercely to open the door without even changing his clothes. Ling Jianhua.

It was nearly four o'clock last night when I returned to the hotel, and found that Ling Jianhua had already gone to bed, so Su Bai, who was exhausted, washed up briefly and buried his head in the bed. The kid woke up!

Ling Jianhua looked at the thick dark circles under Su Bai's eyes, covered her mouth and let out a snort, automatically ignoring the murderous look in the other's eyes, her expression changed instantly, and she said with distressed voices, "Did I wake you up? Did you sleep late last night?"

"...You, say, what?"

"Well, I forgot to explain something to you yesterday, but with Jiu Yuan here, it should go well, right?" Ling Jianhua still smiled calmly, bent over to Su Bai's ear, and brushed Su Bai's sideburns The loose strands of hair, the warm, moist and soft breath spit out on the other's fair cheeks, and a faint blush instantly appeared.

"Ha ha."

Su Bai laughed back angrily, if he hadn't forgotten his talisman paper in the inn, he really wanted to kill him right now.

"Cough." Ling Jianhua clenched his right hand and put his fist on his lips to cough lightly. He walked around Su Bai and walked into the room. Su Bai slammed the door with a black face, and glanced at the other party's hand that was still wrapped in bandages. , take a deep breath.

...be calm, be calm.

"Hmm...?" Ling Jianhua took a brief look around after entering, and found the black snakeskin bag in the corner. He walked over to pick it up, and curled his mouth, "Yo, you didn't prepare anything, it seems that Jiuyuan I won't let you buy it with Hua Yangshou, how did you get it?"

...Because we sold King Miaojiang.

But Su Bai's words slipped into his mouth again: "Because of some special reasons, I will temporarily repay the loan after four months..."

If you think about it this way, how come a thousand-year-old soul of the king of Miaojiang is worth more than [-] million ghost coins?Su Bai was depressed again, it really wasn't worth it to exchange these things with King Miao Jiang...

"Credit? I don't know that the ghost market can still be credited." Ling Jianhua raised her eyebrows, but did not ask for any special reason.Seeing Ling Jianhua take out the things inside and observe carefully, Su Bai couldn't help asking curiously, "Why do you prepare these things?"

Ling Jianhua smiled without saying a word, took out a handful of silver-gray rhino horns, and stroked the smooth surface with satisfaction: "This high-quality rhino horn can be burned to illuminate ghosts, and can be used to kill spirits. We are going to an unusual place this time. He is good at using black witchcraft and Gu, and it is said that Wu Tuoken died of the backlash of witchcraft, full of resentment, but he is somewhat similar to Huainan King."

Ling Jianhua's tone paused slightly as he spoke, and the corners of his mouth twitched: "But Wu Tuoken is not as brainless as King Huainan. He is ruthless and suspicious by nature, so he won't just put a few pets in the tomb to guard the tomb."

Su Bai: "..."

Ling Jianhua also mocked Jiu Yuan while explaining.

"Although the ghost market is similar to the bazaar in the world, the things sold in it are all genuine materials that some people can't get." Ling Jianhua took out another wooden bead bracelet with a strong smile, "This is called The jujube wood can protect the body and dispel evil spirits when it is struck by lightning, and it is also called evil wood. This kind of jujube tree, which has been natural for a hundred years, is rare in the world."

Su Bai has also heard of this kind of evil-repelling wood. In fact, it seems that these are some very common things. You can buy them in an antique shop, but most of them are fake and inferior imitations without any mana. How could such things appear in the gloomy ghost market?

Ling Jianhua glanced at Su Bai, and said with a smile: "The store at No. 13 Qingming Road is different from ordinary ghost stores. It is a special existence in the ghost world. As long as you pay the same price there, there is nothing you can't buy. of."

...the price is too high.

Su Bai's face turned dark again, Ling Jianhua lowered her head to study the contents in the snakeskin bag but didn't see Su Bai's expression, after a while she raised her head and said softly to him: "Thanks for your hard work."

"It's okay." Su Baipi replied with a non-smiling smile, "When the time comes, you will be required to help pay off the debt."

Ling Jianhua looked at him suspiciously: "?"

"Is there anything else? I'm going to continue to sleep." Su Bai suppressed his face and pushed him out of the door with both hands. He didn't want to see Ling Jianhua's face for the time being, but Su Bai pushed him out with a helpless smile on his face. The former Ling Jianhua grabbed the door frame with her hand and reminded: "Don't forget, we will leave next Monday."

"Oh, oh, I see." Su Bai nodded perfunctorily, then suddenly stopped, isn't today Saturday?Looking up at him, "Are you ready?"

"You're talking about this?" Ling Jianhua raised her bandaged hands, and then, under Su Bai's gaze, she removed the bandages one by one, revealing her white forearm and a dazzling smile, "Before I went out, I deliberately didn't dismantled."

"..."

Su Bai was silent for three seconds, then turned around and slammed the door hard!

……

…………

Jiu Yuan, who knew Su Bai's life and routine very well, went to find Su Bai on time at [-]:[-] pm.

When he opened the door, he saw his black face comparable to that of Bao Gong, subconsciously shut up, and couldn't help wondering who provoked him again.

"Ling Jianhua said to leave next Monday." Su Bai dropped these words listlessly, and was still a little depressed after catching up on sleep. Jiu Yuan went in and sat down naturally, seeing Su Bai with a bad face was also a little tangled in his heart.

Didn't sleep well?Or is he still angry about yesterday's contract?Thinking of this, I can't help but feel warm, this is his most beloved brother, and I can't bear him to be listless, so I raised my eyes: "I'm going to leave soon, aren't you ready?"

"Prepare what? Ling Jianhua made us prepare it..." Su Bai got angry when he mentioned it, crossed his arms and rolled his eyes, and suddenly thought of something, "Ouch" and slapped his forehead hard, his talisman paper!

"My talisman is still left in the Miao village..." Su Bai regained his energy in an instant, and walked around the room anxiously, "What to do, what to do, what to do... Let Tourmaline send it from my house? He doesn't have my house key... ..."

Jiu Yuan silently looked at Su Bai, very calm.

"Forget it, let's go out and buy it!" Su Bai was thinking, there is still one day to buy back the painting until tomorrow, seeing Jiu Yuan nodding, he dragged him out without hesitation, walking in the corridor of the hotel, he suddenly bumped into Ling Jianhua who was resting Room overlooks the scenery.

"Ok?"

Ling Jianhua turned her head slightly to look at Su Bai who was rushing down the stairs in a hurry, so she reached out her hand to stop her: "Where are you going in such a hurry?"

"Shopping!" Su Bai was stopped by Ling Jianhua, Jiu Yuan raised his head and looked at him dissatisfied, Su Bai quickly stopped and turned to ask him, "Oh, by the way, Ling Jianhua, do you know that there is no antique street here? "

Ling Jianhua hooked the corners of her mouth, glanced at the two of them, with a wicked smile on her face: "I know, but I don't remember clearly, so let's go and see with you."

"Alright!" Su Bai readily agreed, but he was still worried about what to do if he and Jiu Yuan lost their way.

Jiu Yuan's face turned completely dark, and the happy world of two people turned into a threesome.

……

After leaving the hotel gate, Su Bai took a deep breath, the setting sun cast a faint afterglow on his body.

A gust of autumn wind blows from time to time, and the weather in this season is the most comfortable.

The taxi that was called at the front desk soon drove over and took the three of them to their destination.

"This is the largest antique shopping street in the city."

After getting off the bus, Ling Jianhua acted as a tour guide, and introduced the street to Su Bai with a smile: "This street has a history of a hundred years. It happened to be a market during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and it has developed into a place where antiques and cultural relics are traded today. , the things here are real and fake, I am so lucky that I can't bear to find the ones that have just been unearthed..."

"Stop! Wait, wait..."

Su Bai quickly stopped Ling Jianhua, "We're not here to buy antiques, we're just looking for yellow watch paper."

"Hmm..." Ling Jianhua was not angry at all, she pondered for a while, the yellow paper money used by ghost masters is different from the paper money burned in ordinary graves, so I had to find something to buy, so Su Bai prepared it at home. One box.

Ling Jianhua quickly thought about where there is a specialty store nearby, Su Bai dragged Jiu Yuan around here, and it was not the first time Su Bai came to Antique Street, it was just that it was too expensive and he was not familiar with these not interested.

"Ah, I found it! It should be here!"

Su Bai stopped in front of an antique door, and waved excitedly at Ling Jianhua and Jiu Yuan. Before entering, Ling Jianhua glanced at the yellow and black signboard at the door, which had a very interesting name, called Dongxiexidu Antique Grocery Store.

The inside is very spacious, and the decoration is quite antique. There is a cup of steaming tea on the Eight Immortals table in the middle.

"Hello, is anyone there?" Su Bai went in and sniffed it. It was sandalwood, which smelled very good. Seeing that there was no one inside, he asked cautiously, and by the way, observed the objects placed on the wooden shelves around him.

The three of them waited for a long time before they heard a faint response, followed by a thumping sound of going downstairs, and a middle-aged man in gray came out. Ling Jianhua smiled, "Boss, it's okay to stay upstairs." Aren't you afraid someone will steal it?"

The middle-aged man seemed to be in his 40s or [-]s. He also scratched his head and smiled, and sighed: "I've been busy recently. Didn't I forget to install a camera? Haha."

"Come here, my humble Liu, what are you here to see? A vase or a jade pendant?" Boss Liu stretched out his hand to lure Su Bai and the others inside.Su Bai waved his hands and laughed quickly: "No, we're just here to buy yellow paper."

Boss Liu snorted, put down his hand and looked at Su Bai several times again: "Ordinary?"

Su Bai shook his head: "Exorcism."

"Hahahaha, you are really young and promising, but a Taoist?" Boss Liu was also surprised. He glanced at Jiu Yuan and Ling Jianhua who were behind him and suddenly laughed. There are so many people coming and going here. No one has seen it before. , I was once possessed by a ghost, and I believed it only after I was rescued by an expert.

"Hehe..." Su Bai laughed twice, but remained silent.When Boss Liu saw this, he didn't ask any more questions, and quickly said, "Then wait a minute, few people buy these things, and they are all stored upstairs. You can go up with me to get them."

Su Bai heaved a sigh of relief, this kind of thing is indeed rarely sold in antique shops, so the three of them followed Boss Liu up to the second floor. Su Bai couldn't help being curious about the things with patterns of ethnic minorities and the black cup.

Boss Liu was a little embarrassed: "I've been researching the cultural heritage of ethnic minorities recently, I'll look for it later." So he buried his head and turned over the cabinet.

"Not urgent."

Ling Jianhua spoke softly, and caught a glimpse of the black cup on the workbench not far away. Su Bai picked up the horns hanging on the wall and played with them curiously. He once wanted to open an antique shop to make a living, but unfortunately he didn't skills in this area.

"Ah! I found it!" After a while, Boss Liu finally turned over a few stacks of yellow paper and handed it to Su Bai. Ling Jianhua also naturally paid for it, and Su Bai didn't stop him. Few people buy this thing at a price. Not expensive either.

"I just saw a beautiful piece of white jade, Jiuyuan, let's go down and have a look." Su Bai took the yellow paper and immediately relaxed, and excitedly pulled Jiuyuan downstairs, Boss Liu laughed twice Also ready to follow downstairs.

At this moment, Ling Jianhua, who had been silent all this time, suddenly stopped him.

The other party turned his head in doubt, and saw Ling Jianhua showing him a warm smile with a light tone.

"Boss Liu, you also have research Gu here?"
