Chapter 9: The Five Ghosts Transport Wealth
Several migrant workers collectively gasped in astonishment, truly taken aback by the situation
Zhou Hao emerged from the coffin and, realizing that the person before him was not a villain, stepped forward and said: "Your Excellency, it is indeed a kind act to help others, but may I ask why you have brought me back along with them?"
How will the tuition fees be handled? We can't gamble anymore, can we
"No!" A Yao exclaimed.
Zhou Hao was bewildered; he knew that his master went out to play cards every day, but who would have thought he played so big
Then what university should I attend? It's just that my online store has also opened, so I might as well start my own business in the future said Zhou Hao
This is clearly a trap
Zhang Shanyuan sulked, his face drooping as he said, "Wasn't it agreed for next month?"
Zhou Hao also began to feel troubled. In fact, he felt a sense of relief after sending out the one hundred thousand. Moreover, the "Secret Transmission of Daoist Principles" states that money earned through the use of the Dao can only be used for cultivation. Cultivation requires methods, companions, resources, and environment. Aside from these, using it for charitable deeds to increase one's merit is also acceptable, but using the Dao to amass wealth is a different matter altogether, and if not handled properly, it could lead to a loss of virtue.
Zhou Hao, it's time to go home for dinner
Wait! I happen to have 100,000 here, you can take it, and in the future, do not seek my master for card games, otherwise, I will not let you off easily. " Saying this, he snatched the hoe and with a single strike broke the handle of the hoe.
Five Ghosts Carrying the Coffin
Zhou Hao looked around and noticed that Zhang Shanyuan was also standing nearby
"Are you all crazy! Why put me in a coffin!" Zhou Hao was very angry; after waking up from meditation, he found himself sleeping in a coffin. Who would be willing to do that?
After finishing, he threw the bank card from his pocket over and also told them the password. After they left, Zhou Hao jumped up and shook his hands.
Damn, does this person have no shame? Zhou Hao is already furious and wants to gather his strength to strike, but he realizes he is powerless.
Zhou Hao's gaze towards Chen Guangyao was already tinged with vigilance
Chen Guangyao nodded
Who will make a deal with you next month? Take the money out now!
Zhou Hao was also puzzled, wondering whose matter he had ruined. He turned his head to take a look
Zhou Hao was so angry that he stomped his feet, what kind of situation is this
Chen Guangyao paused for a moment, thinking to himself that this person, seeing such strange occurrences without fear, was likely a kindred spirit. He said, "It is possible that my subordinate's little ghost brought you here because it sensed the strong energy within you. I apologize for that."
Zhang Shanyuan approached Zhou Hao with a mix of skepticism and curiosity. Taking advantage of Zhou Hao's momentary distraction, he lifted his clothing to take a glance, confirming that his kidneys were still intact, which put him at ease. Subsequently, he became animated and exclaimed: "I told you I was right; as long as you learn your skills well from the master, you need not worry about earning money in the future"
"What robbery? Old Zhang owes me 100,000 yuan from gambling, and it's clearly written in black and white." As he spoke, he took out a crumpled promissory note.
Upon arriving at the entrance of the shop, the two individuals noticed several people who appeared to be migrant workers standing at the door
Also known as "Five Ghosts Carrying Wealth," this is typically a practice performed by kind-hearted feng shui masters for the benefit of virtuous and impoverished families. It involves drawing some fortune from wealthy families to assist others, but it must not harm the fundamental well-being of the affluent. After all, the wealthy do not dig up the ancestral graves of others.
Squeak
It is truly wonderful that you are alright, sir
What does it matter?
The situation was quite eerie. Zhou Hao was already sweating profusely, with beads of sweat dripping down. He could no longer bear it. After sitting up straight again, Zhou Hao formed the Mudra of the Immovable Wisdom King and the Great Vajra Wheel. He then raised both palms upward and chanted, "I am commanded by the Supreme Laojun: Advance, troops, open!"
Chen Guangyao smiled and said, "Life is fleeting, spanning several decades; if one does not enjoy the riches of the world, is it not a wasted journey? What? Have you not used any means to amass wealth?"
Zhou Hao knew how eager Zhang Shanyuan was to cultivate a university student. In his words, he had never attended university himself, so his apprentice must have. Therefore, even though he did not enjoy studying, he would still go to school.
"Quickly, let's go!" Zhang Shanyuan pulled Zhou Hao and prepared to escape
In just a few seconds, Zhou Hao opened his eyes and found himself sitting on the sofa in Yu Qiuyas office
"Even so, you still use the law to amass wealth, and..." After glancing at A Yao, he continued, "You even use women as a means of exchange. If the Daoist of Jialan commits lewd acts, he will surely fall into the hell of incessant suffering. Do you not know this?"
It is he who has ruined my affairs
If that is truly the case, then Zhou Hao may not necessarily be able to surpass him. Although Zhou Hao possesses the "Secret Transmission of Daoist Methods," his cultivation level is low, and he is unable to perform many advanced techniques.
Chen Guangyao frowned and looked at the speaker, asking: "Why?"
Then I have nothing more to say, I have not harmed you, you may leave, this matter ends here
Yesterday, that female boss came to find you to consult about feng shui, but you were not there, so I went over. Following what you usually say, I talked to her at length, and she believed it. She even gave me 100,000. The reason I stayed for a night was to have a meal; otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to get that much money even if I sold my kidney
Let's take it one step at a time. If it really doesn't work out, I will ask her to borrow. If we can avoid deceiving others, we should not deceive. That's it, I will go buy breakfast
The techniques used this time against A Yao, as well as those used last time, are derived from the section on Qimen Dunjia in the "Secret Transmission of Daoist Methods". The spells of Qimen Dunjia are brief and powerful, yet they require a significant amount of energy.
So it turns out that the person behind A Yao is Chen Guangyao. In that case, the wealth brought by the Five Ghosts is not meant for the poor families; it is likely lining his own pockets. Moreover, A Yao was not taken away by the White Impermanence, which explains why the White Impermanence spoke to me in a rather pleasant tone.
Oh, there is nothing more to do here, Master, let us depart
Inside the store
Do not leave
Your soul has been extracted, and your cultivation is all within your physical body. I do not wish to have any enmity with you, nor am I afraid of you; I simply do not want to offend your sect. If you do not leave now and wish to return, it will become troublesome. Farewell
"Where did your money come from?" Zhang Shanyuan looked at Zhou Hao with a suspicious gaze
Zhou Hao stood in front of Zhang Shanyuan and said: "What are you doing? Are you robbing?"
Zhang Shanyuan twitched his face and said, "Aren't you about to start school? There is no money at home... You initially won several thousand..." Originally, Zhang Shanyuan planned to run away after Zhou Hao started school.
Stop talking nonsense, why are you in such a hurry to make money? Although I didn't graduate from a bachelor's program, I still have the experience of being a university student.
A powerful force overturned the "top" on Zhou Hao's head, and the "box" fell down, landing on the ground in just one second, coming to an abrupt stop.
What comes into view is the smiling face of Yu Qiuyah.
A Yao
Hmm? Chen Guangyao cast a cold glance at A Yao, causing her to shiver in fear and fall silent.
Zhou Hao stood up and discovered that he was actually in the suburbs of Suzhou City. Beneath his feet was a pitch-black cedar coffin, and looking around, he saw five ragged, unkempt individuals staring at him.
Zhou Hao instinctively touched the bank card in his pocket, feeling somewhat guilty, and said: "I am saving lives, while you are harming others. How can we be compared?"
Master, what brings you here
Seeing that Zhou Hao still looked confused, Yu Qiuyah said: "It is like this, I am worried that there may be danger to the gentleman at the company, so I went to the store early in the morning to invite Master Zhang over, fortunately, Master Zhang was at home."
"Is it you who helped her return to life, using the hand of the earth immortal to commit murder?"
Zhou Hao also noticed warm air wafting out of the coffin, and upon closer inspection, he discovered that it was all vitality and wealth.
I am in excruciating pain
"Damn it, am I being sucked in too?" Zhou Hao shouted in anger, thinking that he was also being drawn into the gourd
The sound of urgent braking echoed as a long-haired woman dressed in a black quick-dry fitness outfit was struck and thrown aside. The driver of the vehicle leaned out to take a glance and then pressed the accelerator to speed away.
Zhou Hao felt a sudden sharp pain in his head, as if it were about to explode. A strong pulling force appeared out of nowhere behind him, and Zhou Hao's body was swiftly propelled backward.
Was the trap set by you in the case of Yu Qiuyas company as well
You little rascal have been schemed against, and you don't even realize that your soul is lost. Zhang Shanyuan said lightly while standing with his hands behind his back, thinking to himself that his greatest skill in life was calling souls, and if anything else were to happen, he truly would not be able to manage it
The five individuals remained silent, coldly gazing at Zhou Hao.
It is of no concern, I will return by myself
"Old Zhang, stop right there!" shouted a burly migrant worker with thick eyebrows and big eyes.
It is now just past 7 o'clock in the morning. Due to the summer vacation, there are significantly fewer students going to school, yet there are still bustling crowds of people hurrying to work. Zhou Hao is waiting at the red light, beginning to contemplate ways to make money. Since the money earned from helping others with feng shui cannot be used for himself, doesn't that render it somewhat pointless?
What kind of killing game is this? I do not know; I merely took advantage of the opportunity when I saw that the company was exuding a sinister atmosphere.
After speaking, he walked to the coffin and took out a gourd, absorbing all the negative energy inside. Then he took out another gourd and captured the five ghosts within it. Subsequently, he withdrew, and after taking just a few steps, he vanished without a trace.
Why is the action so slow
The speaker is a middle-aged man around forty years old, named Chen Guangyao. He has a crew cut, wears sunglasses and a mask, and is dressed in a white training outfit, which is quite an unusual appearance
"Do not speak of trivial matters; if you cannot produce the money today, we will smash your shop!" As he spoke, he waved the hoe in his hand.
Zhang Shanyuan lowered his head in deep thought, and the next moment, as if recalling something, he said: "That female boss is quite wealthy; in a couple of days, the master will take you to charm her again, and everything will be available."
