The Psychic Resurrection: Riding the Mirage
Chapter 278: Using the same tactics to do business and the prophet who comes again
Hu Jiu used a satellite phone to log into the Ghost Control Forum.
There were indeed a few inconspicuous posts in the forum, discussing the fact that Hu Jiu was holding a treasure.
Hu Jiu browsed around, thought about it, and directly posted a post in his own name-
‘I am Hu Jiu, I do have a supernatural item that can eliminate the negative effects of controlling ghosts and control evil spirits without side effects’
‘When using this supernatural item, you need to pay a very high price. ’
‘If anyone needs it, you can contact me privately. As long as you are willing to pay, you can get anything you want. ’
Then there was a long price list. Hu Jiu specifically noted that this price list was only for reference, and the specific charges were subject to negotiation.
As soon as this post came out, it immediately caused a sensation.
If Hu Jiu denied it flatly, many people would definitely suspect that he was lying and thought that he didn't want others to know that he had a treasure.
But now Hu Jiu admitted it openly and did such a thing, which made people feel a little unbelievable.
That sky-high price list gave people the illusion of a telecom fraud.
For a while, many people were watching and waiting for the first person to take the plunge.
Hu Jiu took Zheng Li's severed hand out of the trash can.
Then he took out a feather pen and wrote and drew on the skin of the severed hand.
After a while, the flesh and blood of the severed hand began to dry up and shrink, twisting and deforming, as if it was cut directly from a mummy.
The fingertips became long and curved, dark in color, as if covered with eternal filth, giving people an ominous feeling.
At the same time, the severed hand exuded a magical atmosphere, as if telling unfulfilled wishes and hidden secrets, tempting everyone who saw it to touch it and sink into it.
Hu Jiu's new work - Monkey's Paw!
I don't know which country's folklore legends came from, a monster that can fulfill wishes, but it fulfills wishes in a distorted form, and it will definitely pay a huge price, and even cause serious consequences.
"This is my 'treasure'! Hehehehe..."
For the next two days, it was calm.
Only the person in charge of a certain city asked Hu Jiu about it through Xiaomei, but there was no follow-up.
Until the third day.
Ding Dong——
The doorbell rang.
Hu Jiu opened the door, and a dazzling silver-white color caught his eyes.
"It's you, come in."
The prophet walked into Hu Jiu's house with a smile, looked around, and looked very ordinary, nothing special.
But he didn't dare to take it lightly, and sat on the sofa cautiously.
Hu Jiu took out fruits and drinks from the refrigerator and put them on the coffee table.
The prophet glanced at them and didn't dare to eat. He asked casually:
"I heard that you have a supernatural item that can eliminate the side effects of controlling ghosts. Is it true?"
Hu Jiu sat opposite the prophet and said, "Of course, are you interested in this too?"
The prophet nodded.
Hu Jiu immediately took out the freshly baked monkey's paw.
When he heard the name "monkey's paw", the prophet's face changed immediately.
"Could this be the monkey's paw that can make wishes come true?"
"Yes." Hu Jiu gave an affirmative answer.
"Do you want to try it?"
The prophet refused without even thinking: "It must cost a lot to make a wish, right?"
"That's a must. There is no such thing as a free lunch in the world?" Hu Jiu said confidently.
The prophet seemed to see through everything: "No wonder you are willing to share this thing online. Even if it can eliminate the negative effects of ghost control, ordinary people may not be able to bear the consequences."
"Since ancient times, in folk tales, things that can make wishes come true are often accompanied by disasters."
Hu Jiu smiled: "Not necessarily, Dragon Ball is not."
"Haha." The prophet was speechless.
After the joke, Hu Jiu said bluntly: "You are not here to visit because you are bored. Just tell me what you want to say."
The prophet straightened up and asked: "What do you think about what I told you last time? Now that you join Beidou, it just happens to be a big event~"
Hu Jiu's mouth twitched. Why did he suddenly have the illusion that he was being sold a membership card during a haircut?
"What event? Can you tell me first?"
The prophet said without hesitation: "Of course."
"It's almost the end of the year. Beidou is organizing an end-of-year assessment. Those who rank at the top will receive very generous rewards. The top three will also receive a mysterious grand prize!"
Hu Jiu was slightly shocked: "To become a member of Beidou, you still have to take an exam?"
The prophet said as a matter of course: "This is a very necessary procedure.
"People's strength is not static. Some are making progress, while others are regressing. How can you see the gap between members without an assessment?
"Only after the assessment can we allocate resources and tasks more effectively and reasonably, and avoid meaningless losses and waste."
"You make sense." Hu Jiu agreed with this argument.
Logically, the headquarters should also conduct regular assessments, but unfortunately the group of ghost riders is too special, and they are all non-renewable resources with a limited number of uses.
The ability of the evil ghost was used in the assessment, resulting in an irreversible decline in status, and the resulting ranking is inaccurate.
Moreover, when dealing with supernatural events, a flexible mind is also very important, but it is difficult to give specific standards in this regard and stipulate what is considered qualified.
I wonder what Beidou's assessment is like? Written test or ring competition?
Thinking of this, Hu Jiu asked.
The prophet only said: "I am not a member of the question-setting group, and even if I know, I can't just miss the question!"
"Well then." Hu Jiu didn't even raise his eyelids: "Why are you so persistent in wanting me to join Beidou?"
"An organization will inevitably recruit talents continuously. It's a pity to miss talents like you..."
Under Hu Jiu's gaze, the prophet's high-sounding reasons were a bit difficult to say, and finally he could only truthfully explain a little bit:
"It is a great achievement for me to be able to recruit a super strong person like you. If you and I join forces, our status in the organization will also rise steadily."
Hu Jiu frowned: "As far as I know, there are many factions within Beidou, and the internal struggle is very serious. I don't want to fall into internal consumption inexplicably."
The prophet was very surprised: "You know a lot!"
Hu Jiu's face was full of indescribable helplessness. Beidou's internal struggle was almost exposed. With his current status, as long as he is not blind, he will definitely understand it.
The prophet said, "That was all in the past. Now the external pressure has increased dramatically, and the situation is worse than you can imagine. No matter how many contradictions and conflicts there are internally, we can only temporarily put them aside and unite against the outside world."
"Once the ghost world fully invades reality, no one can stay out of it, so..."
