Chapter 3: Deception and Trickery
The overweight lover suddenly fell to his knees with a thud, repenting: "... it is my fault, I should not have disrespected the Bodhisattva. However, I truly have not done anything wrong in my life; I have never taken money that I should not have. At most, it has only been a bit of gray income..."
At this moment, he wished he could just rush over and snatch the ancient jade away. However, even if he had the ability, he did not dare to approach that fat lover.
The market was extremely crowded, yet strangely, everyone kept their distance from Wen Fei, leaving a large open space around him, making him even more conspicuous. In fact, Wen Fei's attire was indeed at odds with the people around him.
Most people are dressed in a type of garment that is both short and coarse, wearing headscarves and similar items, with long hair. In contrast to Wen Fei's attire, they appear particularly conspicuous
In a moment of anxiety, I suddenly noticed the greenbelt beside me and came up with a solution. Although this is not a northern city, it has recently been plagued by the American white moth, which has caused the leaves of various ornamental trees in the landscaping to wither. The property management has already applied pesticides several times, but to no avail
What further drove Wen Fei to despair was that these people were actually dressed in ancient costumes. Goodness, ancient costumes, in such an authentic style, left Wen Fei with no doubt that he was in Hengdian. If domestic film crews were truly this dedicated and impressive, they wouldn't have produced so many poor-quality films.
This is a small market, not very large, yet it is filled with a great number of pedestrians, densely crowding this several hundred meters long road. Wen Fei thoroughly experienced what it means to jostle shoulder to shoulder and to sweat profusely. It is not merely a matter of many people, but rather an overwhelming tightness.
Although these small creatures are tiny and lack intelligence, they still possess the instincts of animals. When stirred by a wave of ominous energy, they scatter chaotically in the sky. Wen Fei exerted considerable effort to drive the white moths into the shape of a large character "玉" on the ground
The pair of men and women stared at each other, both displaying expressions of guilt. The beautiful mistress cried out, "It's all your fault. Last time we went to pay our respects, you insisted on having some car fun halfway there. With such insincerity in your heart, the Bodhisattva must have come knocking at our door!"
Wen Fei originally intended to drive away those white egrets and display a character meaning "roll". However, he found the character too complex and difficult to write. After struggling for a long time, he was unable to produce it, only managing to send the white egrets flying chaotically in the sky
Just as he was thinking, the ancient jade suddenly emitted a faint glow, and then he felt a wave of dizziness, as if ripples had appeared in the air, and Wen Fei had completely vanished.
The desolate scenery before him chilled Wen Fei's heart. Although in this day and age, everyone yearns for a chance to travel through time, Wen Fei, despite being a loser, had never considered such a possibility. While he was not entirely satisfied with his current life, the sight of the dilapidated earthen house and the muddy ground, which was still wet from the recent rain, filled him with an impulse to go mad.
Unfortunately, Wen Fei found himself unable to acquire this ancient jade. In a moment of anxiety, he felt as if he were in a state of turmoil, unable to manipulate objects, devoid of weight and form, unable even to grasp a fallen leaf or a thin piece of paper, which only exacerbated his predicament. At this moment, Wen Fei was in a state of utter frustration, akin to a beautiful woman lying naked on a bed, her blood boiling with desire, ready to pounce, only to realize with dismay that she had no tools at her disposal. There is no greater misfortune in the world than this.
This ancient jade is no ordinary object. Originally, Wen Fei could not discern the peculiarities of this ancient jade. However, in a state of spiritual transcendence, unbound by the constraints of the physical body, one perceives things in a more essential manner. From that ancient jade, he could see a faint mysterious light, even carrying a sense of allure, emanating a strong temptation, akin to the allure of beautiful legs for a reclusive man, and even a thousand times stronger.
Fortunately, that overweight man placed down the ancient jade, accompanied by his beautiful mistress, respectfully bowed three times, and immediately left. This indeed saved Fu a considerable amount of trouble
These ancient individuals are clearly from the countryside, as their clothes are all patched. Even the clothes worn by beggars in the film crews of Hengdian are cleaner and more orderly than those before me
Perhaps due to the American white moths fluttering about, no one has ventured into this greenbelt recently. That piece of ancient jade remains quietly in its original place at https://www.hetushucomcom. Wen Fei hurriedly stepped forward, tightly grasping the ancient jade in his hand, and only then did his pounding heart gradually calm down. This piece of ancient jade must be a treasure
In the countryside, it is rare and therefore strange. Wen Fei comforted himself in this way, but being stared at by so many pairs of eyes made him feel somewhat uneasy. He forced his attention to look away.
Certainly crooked and extremely unsightly, fortunately, that chubby lover is clearly not a fool. Upon seeing the moth, he surprisingly displayed traces of writing; although startled, he still recognized it. Trembling, he took out the ancient jade from around his neck, forcefully broke the string, and placed it on the ground
Having delayed for so long, the incense was nearly burnt out. Wen Fei dared not be negligent and quickly returned to his physical body. He jumped out of bed and rushed outside, as the ancient jade was still lying in the greenbelt. If someone were to pick it up, he would have nowhere to lament.
Wen Fei found it amusing to watch them scare themselves; if he were not in a trance, he would have been rolling on the ground with laughter. At that moment, he noticed the fat man kneeling on the ground, revealing an antique jade pendant around his neck, which stirred something in his heart. He paid no attention to what the fat man was shouting. Even the beautiful mistress who knelt down alongside him, her cleavage rising and falling with her sobs, failed to capture Wen Fei's attention.
It is important to understand that the soul has no weight and moves silently. However, upon returning to the body, it feels as if one is suddenly burdened by over a hundred pounds. Wen Fei stumbled and struggled to regain his balance. Normally, it would take several minutes to readjust to the body, but at that moment, he could not afford to waste time. Barely able to walk, he staggered and rushed out.
It is unfortunate that I have forgotten how long I have been in a trance; upon suddenly returning to my body, I find myself somewhat unaccustomed.
In reality, although Wen Fei was muttering to himself in this manner, he was feeling quite anxious inside. If you were being stared at by thousands of eyes, you would probably feel the same way as Wen Fei.
The remaining pair of mandarin ducks shouted in fear: "Master, Master, you must not leave..."
Good and evil will ultimately be rewarded; there are deities three feet above your head. You must have committed some blasphemous acts or harmed your moral standing, which has drawn the attention of the spirits. I can do nothing about it; if you are to die, let it be your own doing, do not implicate me!" Saying this, the master paid no heed to the two struggling and hurriedly left.
