Chapter 009: Wang Ge's Threat

Mr. Qi smiled and said: "At the very least, we must show our sincerity. In everything, sincerity brings results; otherwise, if we anger a malevolent spirit, the three of us will have to face the consequences at the hands of that female ghost tonight"

Ginger shook his head: "He is indeed the husband of Ma Wenlu! Now, let's put our hearts at ease, this matter is settled."

I was holding a teacup and drinking water, and it seemed a bit strange to see her looking so anxious: "What's wrong? Is that jade no longer effective?"

After speaking, he casually贴了一张黄纸 on my door, which had some talismans on it, and I did not know what he had drawn on it

Mr. Qi did not continue this topic: "Indeed, it is Mo Wentian; the arrangement of this small shop is truly thoughtful. The feng shui layout and the arrangement of the eight trigrams have been utilized to the utmost, in conjunction with the street outside and the location of the shop, creating a grand scheme of heaven, earth, and humanity. Impressive! Brother, once we have money, we must definitely buy this shop. If someone is guided by a master and directly approaches your landlord, you will be in a very passive position. There won't be another shop like this in the entire Muye City."

Suddenly, a man's voice came from the doorway: "Binzi, what are you holding Xiaoru for? Do you want to bully her?"

For an entire afternoon, not a single person came into the store. The three of us spent the whole afternoon chatting happily. When it was almost dark and we were about to go out for dinner, Da Jiang handed me his phone and said: "A short video shared in the group shows that a certain leader in our city has been placed under double regulation..."

Mr. Qi pointed to the bathhouse across the street: "Just casually hanging a mirror at the entrance of the shop, the bathhouse across the street will not be peaceful once night falls. However, such actions generally harm one's moral standing, and I do not recommend you do it. As the saying goes, harmony brings wealth; unless absolutely necessary, do not offend others. Offending a ghost is inconsequential; you can simply eliminate it. But if you offend a person, it could lead to a fate worse than death; some people are tough to deal with, and they are not someone you can afford to offend."

Having spoken, he threw the cigarette butt on the ground, stamped on it forcefully, and then turned around and left

Just as I arrived at the store, Xiao Ru suddenly rushed in, exclaiming: "Binzi, something has happened!"

Ginger shivered all over: "Why is it so cold? Binzi, didn't you turn off the air conditioning?"

Mr. Qi walked to the center of the living room, pushed everything off the coffee table, and then placed several offerings and funeral garments on it

Wang Ge looked at me and said: "Brother, you run your business, and I earn my money; let's not interfere with each other. If you meddle in my affairs, I won't hesitate to teach you a lesson. You must remember, obstructing someone's wealth is akin to killing their parents. Considering we are neighbors, I'll let it go this time. I hope you will be more cautious. Do not provoke the reputation of Mo Wen Tian, and do not overextend yourself, or you will regret it later."

Xiao Ru's expression showed some struggle; she opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but ultimately did not speak out

This ... ...

At that moment, both I and Da Jiang were so shocked that we were left speechless, especially when the ghostly face formed by the cigarette smoke looked at me, instilling a deep sense of fear within me.

Get lost! I have nothing to say to you. As long as I consume the soul of this wretched child born at an inauspicious hour, the Blood Curse Stone will no longer bind me. I will go to rescue my child, and then seek revenge, making them pay in blood for their debts!

I suddenly became a bit anxious: "Xiao Ru, what time is it and you still haven't said anything? Are you planning to die? Even if you are preparing to die, can you not drag me into it?"

As Mr. Qi spoke, the wisps of blue smoke rising from the incense in his hand suddenly began to swirl in the air above the room, gradually forming the face of a woman.

Upon arriving at my residence, I immediately felt a chilling aura as soon as I opened the door. Mr. Qi placed his hand on my shoulder and said, "Do not be afraid, step inside, and do not disturb the neighbors nearby"

When Mr. Qi and Da Jiang arrived at my store, I was still pondering the relationship between them

Da Jiang curiously asked: "Old Qi, are you still planning to organize an anniversary for that woman?"

Isn't the entire street like this? What you are saying is too cryptic, isn't it?

Mr. Qi took a shower, got a haircut, and changed into a new outfit, which clearly transformed his appearance significantly compared to before. His hair was styled into a slicked-back look, and he wore a pair of brown-tinted glasses, complemented by his traditional Tang suit, giving him a somewhat ethereal and refined aura.

I looked up and saw Wang standing at the door, smoking a cigarette, with a faint smile on his face. As soon as Xiao Ru turned her head and saw Wang, she immediately broke free from me and ran outside

Mr. Qi cast a glance at me and said: "This shop is the focal point of the entire street, a place where winds and clouds converge. Do you think your master chose it casually? He must have given it considerable thought. Frequenting this shop will also benefit your fate; it is a place where one can advance or retreat. Even if malevolent spirits are clinging to you, as long as you enter the shop, you will be safe and sound. Just think about it, has that blood curse stone ever caused a disturbance in the shop?" Even if malevolent spirits are clinging to you, as long as you enter the shop, you will be safe and sound. Just think about it, has that blood curse stone ever caused a disturbance in the shop?

Xiao Ru plopped down on the sofa and said, "Let me finish speaking. This sister, like me, also has a piece of that red stone, but she got it more than two months earlier than I did. Ever since she started wearing that stone, her business has been thriving, receiving at least twenty customers every day, and her daily earnings amount to around ten to twenty thousand. But today, she suddenly died, and I am scared..." Ever since she started wearing that stone, her business has been thriving, receiving at least twenty customers every day, and her daily earnings amount to around ten to twenty thousand. But today, she suddenly died, and I am scared..."

When he looked at me that way before leaving, it was as if he were looking at a dead person. I was stunned for a long time, still unable to comprehend what Wang Ge meant. I merely inquired about the origin of the Blood Grudge Stone, yet I did not expect such a strong reaction from him

Xiaoru's expression suddenly changed, and she stood up, taking her bag as she said: "Binzi, um, I will leave first"

Xiao Ru struggled and said: "Binzi, let go of me, I really cannot say..."

I do not understand this. Raising my hand and grabbing Xiaoru's arm: "Xiaoru, this is a matter of life and death. Is there anything you cannot say? Hurry up and tell me, this matter now also involves me..."

Mr. Qi lit incense, then cupped his hands and performed several unique gestures of the Maoshan Taoist: "Madam, may I request your presence? I have come today to assist you, please trust me. I understand that you harbor resentment, but mutual destruction benefits no one."

Xiao Ru shook her head: "No, no, it was one of my sisters who suddenly passed away while she was sleeping at noon today. By the time we got her to the hospital, she had already lost her breath, and now she has been sent to the morgue..."

I took a look and saw a scene in the video where a middle-aged man was wearing handcuffs. I curiously asked, "What happened? Isn't it normal to arrest someone?"

I realize that the Blood Vengeance Stone only causes disturbances in the affordable housing I rent; when it was in the store, it was just an ordinary stone. However, I am somewhat curious about the three words "advance and attack" that Mr. Qi mentioned: "Mr. Qi, how does one attack in this store"

I set down the teacup: "That stone of yours is no longer with you; it is now with me. For the time being, you cannot die. However, who exactly gave you that stone? Xiaoru, you must tell me the truth, otherwise, I truly cannot help you."

Could it be that this blood feud stone was brought by him

At that moment, a woman's cold laughter suddenly echoed in the room, and Da Jiang immediately embraced me: "I... Binzi, what is happening?"

The comfort offered by the two of them eased my mind somewhat. In this city of Muye, I am weak and outnumbered, and it is truly not easy to confront a well-known thug. Moreover, Wang Ge is not an ordinary thug; he owns several bathhouses, as well as game rooms and bars, making him a typical figure who operates in both the legal and illegal realms.

Mr. Jiang was driving, and we arrived at the affordable housing. As we passed by the funeral clothing store, Mr. Qi got out of the car to buy a set of women's funeral clothing, as well as items such as paper money and incense.

I was taken aback: "What does this have to do with me?"

He lit a cigarette and, while pacing in my shop, said: "Ask him what he does? Tonight, we will directly ask the ghost sealed within the Blood Vengeance Stone; she can clarify the ins and outs of this matter. Brother, do not be afraid; we are professionals in dealing with ghosts. Many times, asking a ghost yields better results than asking a person. Ghosts do not have so many twists and turns."

I indeed still have this matter on my mind, and I did not expect the retribution to come so quickly. Mr. Qi, who was drinking rice porridge beside me, said: "That kind of feng shui situation is intolerable by heaven and earth; now that the situation is broken, it is only natural that retribution will appear. Let us continue eating, and later we will go to your place to take a look."

After dinner, Da Jiang took Mr. Qi to wash up, get a haircut, and change his hairstyle, while I hurried back to the shop to continue operating. Tonight, Mr. Qi will communicate with that female ghost along with me. I cannot be certain about the specific outcome, but this is the strategy set by my master and Mr. Qi, so I believe he has some confidence in it

Da Jiang comforted me, saying: "Binzi, don't be afraid, it's just a small thug. We'll report his bathhouse for involvement in prostitution, and then we'll see who ends up unlucky."
