Chapter 530 Past Events in Xiangjiang (11)
In less than half a month, the two Taoist priests have already become known to everyone around the Xingfu Building. Everyone knows that the original haunted building is now occupied by two people. Master, just being able to live peacefully in that haunted house as if nothing happened is enough to illustrate their abilities.
Ever since, people who lived nearby would go over if they had anything to do, send some small gifts, ask for a talisman, and put a stick of incense for Mr. Guan, and his happiness was reversed in a very short time. The reputation of the building made the fat landlord who bought that floor very happy. He believed that when the contracts of this group of tenants expired, his rent would increase again and he would make back the previous losses.
For a time, Taoist Lingkong and Taoist Jingde became a hot topic in the neighborhood. Even the aunties in the vegetable market would chat with them.
"Sixth Aunt, have you heard that Xingfu Building invited a Guan Sheng Emperor, which is very effective~ Let's make an appointment to worship together some other day."
"Happiness Building? Isn't it the one that is haunted?"
"Oops~ Your news is out of date. I heard that two masters came from the mainland and drove away the bad and dirty things inside. , in order to suppress Feng Shui, we also specially invited Guan Shengdijun. My third aunt next door went to pay homage to him. Yesterday, he had a hemp massage. I won a lot of money during the battle.”
“Wow, is it really so clever?”
“Of course it is. It seems that after worshiping, the two masters will give you gifts. Amulet."
"Then I'll buy some fruit as a tribute."
Thanks to these enthusiastic people, Taoist priests Lingkong and Jingde did not buy any more fruit for a period of time. The tributes were too large to be eaten and they had to be distributed to other neighbors.
“So this urban legend has been solved like this?” Qian Xiaoyi asked.
Lingkong Lao Dao nodded: "Absolutely. As the legends here are gradually covered by new public perceptions, the number of those gamblers appearing less and less, and later and After we played mahjong a few times, they never showed up again."
Qian Xiaoyi joked: "I'm afraid you lost all their money, right? Gamblers don't have money to gamble. "It's possible," Lingkong said.
After settling on a place to live, they had a firm foothold and began to consider conducting theoretical research, which inevitably meant moving around, so the full-time tour guide Afa came to Xingfu Building again.
"Good morning, second brother!" As soon as Afa arrived here, he immediately picked up three sticks of incense and respectfully offered incense to Guan Gong in the shrine.
As a member of the gang, I knelt in front of this great god and swore an oath when I joined the gang. It can be said that Guan Gong is their patron saint, so naturally we should take it seriously.
After finishing the incense, Afa came to the house of the two Taoist priests refreshed, picked up an apple and ate it, and asked vaguely: "Two masters, what are you doing today?" What are you going to do? "
To be honest, thanks to the two Taoist priests, Afa's life has been very comfortable. He can get money just by taking people around, which is easier than running errands. Too many. "After delaying this for so long, it's time to find the source of Boss Li's daughter's deformation," Taoist priest Jingde said.
"Wow, you want to fight?" Afa's eyes lit up: "It's so exciting! How to find it? Have you already told fortunes and know where he is?"
The two Taoist priests laughed Without saying a word, Afa admired her even more.
“It was actually the news that the wealthy businessman’s daughter An Qi told you before, right?” Qian Xiaoyi said with a smile: “You asked her to carefully recall where she went and what she came into contact with that day. It’s really interesting. She remembered. The result turned out to be what you calculated."
Old Master Lingkong also showed a sly smile: "The people of Xiangjiang really believe this, tell them something about me. Seeing that your hall is darkened, there will be a bloody disaster in the near future. They really believe it, so don't tell the truth to dampen their enthusiasm."
An Qi told them that on the day she saw her doppelganger jumping off the rails, she and her friends passed by a strange store in front of the station. She had never encountered this strange place when she passed by here, so she was curious. When she walked in and took a look, she saw that it was filled with all kinds of strange things. When she turned around to leave the store, she accidentally bumped into a statue on the shelf and smashed the thing to pieces.
As a result, the shopkeeper came, a thin middle-aged man. An Qi said that he wanted to pay for it. Unexpectedly, the shopkeeper shook his head and said that he didn’t want the money, and then let them go. Next, they When I got to the station and was about to go back, I saw that weird scene.
But because she had recurring nightmares and visions, which kept her mentally unstable, she didn’t think of it at first.
"It sounds like An Qi caused the trouble herself." Qian Xiaoyi touched his chin and said: "But there are a lot of strange things in this matter. First of all, the location of the store. From the description, it doesn't look like a ghost realm, and nothing happened to her companion, only her..."
"We also suspect that her friend deliberately led An Qi there." Ling Kong. The old Taoist agreed: "The other party has probably been planning for a long time, so just after contacting An Qi, he can plant a drop head on her and let her see hallucinations quickly. Her friend is very suspicious, but first, we have to go and meet her. The mage who lowered his head for a moment."
Under the leadership of Ah Fa, they came to a street in Yau Tsim Mong District. According to the information provided by An Qi, it was here that she saw the strange shop.
The three of them first walked along this street, but found nothing. It was not until the Taoist priest Lingkong took out his compass and looked at the Feng Shui here that they found it in an alley behind a restaurant. I opened a very hidden shop. There were dense wind chimes hanging at the door of the shop. There was no signboard. There were many spiral-shaped incense coils hanging inside, which looked quite weird.
Afa was surprised: "There is such a place here? And there is a shop inside. How does he attract business?"
"He does not solicit business." Respect. De Daoshi said: "Customers usually come to him."
Qian Xiaoyi touched his chin and thought: "It looks like folk teachings. These people are not Taoist priests or monks, but more like wizards. They are good at various folk alchemy. They are wild people, so they often use some weird methods. Folk remedies and secret techniques not only harm others, but also harm yourself.”
"That's right." Old Master Lingkong nodded: "Basically all the buildings in Xiangjiang use Feng Shui, so every building will compete for a good aura. Under the influence of one and the other, some particularly bad Feng Shui will naturally form. place, this person took advantage of this, found such a Feng Shui position, and opened a store, except People who know the exact location may only come here with extremely bad luck. Such people are very suitable to be the target of his curse.”
