Chapter 8 Chapter 7 Lansi arrives

When the shop owner heard me say this, he patted the coffee table: "Yeah, this is outrageous, I just want her to leave early, I don't know what she will do!" At that time, the shop owner couldn't push Yi Lin, so he kept waving: "Go! Go! Don't mess around!" Yi Lin said, "Maybe your store has too much stock, so I can't remember it at the moment." The owner of the store said angrily: "If you don't have it, you don't have it, so don't make trouble!" Yi Lin turned her head and thought for a while: "It's in the Xuanzi box, you might as well go and have a look, the number is sixty-seven."

As soon as Yi Lin said this, the owner of the shop was stunned and could not make a sound. I heard the owner of the store narrate this point, but I couldn't make a sound. Because I feel that things are much more complicated than I imagined. Yi Lin's purchase of this box was already a strange and inexplicable event—she obviously did not act on her own will, but was instructed by someone to act. Otherwise, how could she know where the box she wanted to buy was hidden? This store is a five-hundred-year-old store, and there are many old and second-hand goods that even the owner doesn't know. How could she know?

Someone must have told her—who told her, and how could they know the details of the thrift store? From this, it can also be seen that when Yi Lin told others about her experience, she only said a very small part, that is, she felt a voice calling to her, and there were many more, which she concealed. . This made me feel that the girl Yi Lin's behavior was very hateful, and I naturally let out a dissatisfied snort. Moreover, if Wen Baoyu hadn't been involved in the incident and disappeared mysteriously, I would really ignore this matter It's a matter──Yi Lin was serious about negotiating with someone, and he treated her wholeheartedly, but she concealed the truth from others. Isn't this kind of behavior extremely abhorrent!

The owner of the store opened his eyes wide open and stared at Yi Lin. Yi Lin's expression seemed to be looking forward to something, and she seemed very nervous. After Lin's words, he was shocked. He didn't understand how Yi Lin could know the secrets of his store, but he had other thoughts in his mind, so he tried his best to calm down and observed Yi Lin carefully. Only then did he see that she was quite nervous. The owner of the store has other thoughts in his heart, which is very interesting, and I would like to briefly introduce it.This store has such a long history, passed down from generation to generation, and there are many treasures in the store.Moreover, there is no certain standard for second-hand goods. If more than one collector suddenly likes a worthless item, the price can be exorbitantly high.

Therefore, a large inventory of thrift stores is an inestimable wealth.The ancestors who founded the store once had a clear instruction that this store has been passed down from generation to generation, and the money can be divided, but the goods cannot be divided, and the goods are shared by the family. After so many years, the family has multiplied and the number of people is large, as one can imagine.In the past 30 to 40 years, due to the changes in the current situation, the father of the owner of the shop took advantage of the chaos of the war to transport the goods in the shop out of the war-torn area as soon as possible.He was cut off from the rest of the family for decades.

It has been passed down to the present owner of the shop that all the goods belong to him alone. But when the shop owner’s father was dying, he told the shop owner about the tradition of the old shop, telling him that all the goods in the shop are stored in eight large wooden boxes, and the big wooden boxes are numbered in order of “Thousand Characters”, and the world is mysterious and the universe is torrent.There are dozens of treasures in each box, and there is a list, which is a family secret, only known to those who own the property. For decades, the shop owner's father has monopolized this wealth, and he is always on guard against people from his clan coming to his door, so at this moment, the shop owner's heart trembled when he heard Yi Lin say this.The first thing that comes to mind is that this girl must know the secret and wants to share the wealth.

The secret of this, when I first met the shop owner, he didn't tell me—that is, he thought I was Yi Lin's representative and asked him to negotiate terms, so he was very afraid of me. It is precisely because of this twists and turns that it makes things more difficult to proceed. When the shop owner mentioned this, he paused.I thought for a while, but without a clue, I naturally asked, "How did she know?" The shopkeeper asked me back: "Yes, tell me, how did she know?" The owner of the store was spying on me. I didn't know that he had other ghosts at the time, so I just thought it was funny: "I'm asking you!"

The shopkeeper took a breath and didn't answer, and I didn't care, so I urged him to continue. At that time, the owner of the store was stunned for a while, and asked the same sentence: "Miss, how do you know?" Yi Lin's answer was extremely weird: "I don't know, so don't worry about it, just look at the box with the Xuan name, I want to buy that box." The innkeeper took a deep breath and asked Yi Lin many questions, first her name, then her ancestral home. After Yi Lin answered one by one, the innkeeper confirmed that she had absolutely nothing to do with her family, and then asked again: "You Did you come to me at the instigation of someone? Ask that person to come to see me."

Yi Lin shook her head: "I don't know who it is, and I haven't seen it—do you have that box, why are you asking so much?" The owner of the store said: "The store has too much stock, and I'm not sure. I'll check it out. It will take time. You just wait." This investigation took more than an hour, and Yi Lin waited patiently.Sure enough, the owner of the store found the box among the large wooden boxes of Xuanzi. When he put the box in front of Yi Lin, Yi Lin was very excited and shouted: "There is such a box!" Hearing her call like this, it seemed that she was not sure about what she said.This proves that what she said was taught by someone.

The store owner said with a sullen face: "It seems that you are more familiar with the inventory in the store than I am, or the person who called you is more familiar than me." Yi Lin couldn't hear anything else in the owner's words, but said, "I don't know." The owner of the store asked her many questions, all suggesting that she was instigated by someone to share the property, but Yi Lin answered "don't know" to almost every question. The shopkeeper was helpless, so Yi Lin asked, "How much do you want to sell this box for? Don't be too expensive. It's too expensive. I can't afford it."

There is no standard value for second-hand goods, and the box is in the inventory. It is not an eye-catching thing, and there is no written record of what kind of treasure it is. It seems to be just a box. Of course the shopkeeper knew that his ancestors put it in the big wooden box with a black name, there must be a reason, but since he couldn't see any benefits, he didn't care too much. In addition, he still believed that Yi Lin came here with the purpose of fighting for property, so he had an idea and decided to sell one, so he said: "Ancient things are priceless. Since you like it, miss, I'll give it to you." Yi Lin was overjoyed when she heard this, and she lost her voice and said, "Really? It's great that this kind of thing really happened! Then I won't be polite." As she spoke, she held the box tightly in her arms, and the shop owner gave her a paper bag, she put the box in, turned around and left. The owner of the store stayed for a long time, still not knowing why Yi Lin came here, and he was very uneasy all the time. When I came to the door, he even thought that I was the one who sent Yi Lin to buy the box. But speaking of it, he didn't think I looked like me, so after he told me the process of his "deal" with Yi Lin, he looked at me for a while before saying, "What is your real purpose? I said that if relatives from the same clan come here, they must be treated with courtesy." When he said this, I was baffled and stunned, so he told the twists and turns. I laughed and said, "I'm not interested in your property, and I'm not a member of your clan, just rest assured." The store owner's expression showed that he was still dubious about my release, and I said again: "I want to know the ins and outs of this box, please tell me as much information about it as possible." He flatly refused: "No, there is no information at all!" I asked: "Is there no information on the treasured goods?" He said: "Some have it, some don't. This box belongs to the category without information, and I don't know its origin, otherwise, I wouldn't just give it away." I took a breath, and he asked back, "What happened to the box?" I smiled wryly, so I had to answer him with Yi Lin's answer: "I don't know." He didn't ask any more questions, and I was about to leave when he said: "Mr. Wei, I hope you don't make any publicity about our store." I said, "Don't worry, I won't." As I said that, I was walking towards the door, and when I reached the door, I suddenly heard someone shout: "He lied." I was stunned for a moment, and asked casually, "Who lied to you?" As I spoke, I looked to see who was speaking to me, but there was no one else in the shop except the owner. At that time, I hadn't opened the store door yet, even if someone spoke to me through the door, I wouldn't be able to hear it so clearly, not to mention that there was no one outside the store door. Could it be, then, that the owner of the shop was speaking to me?For one thing, there was no third party present, and if the word "he lied" had come from the owner of the shop, it would have been completely useless.Secondly, seeing the stunned look of the owner of the store, it is also known that he was not the one who spoke. I asked quickly, "Who is talking?" The shop owner said: "It's you, you are asking, 'Who lied to you'." I waved my hand: "Before me." The owner opened his eyes wide: "Before, how long ago?" I said, "Didn't you hear someone say: He lied?" The shop owner looked shocked: "No, I didn't hear anything except what you asked!" I was about to reprimand him: You liar! But after opening his mouth, there was no sound, and someone said again: "He didn't lie." My whole body vibrated—I heard the voice of a third party without the presence of a third party. However, I immediately calmed down. Although my heartbeat increased at the time, it was because of excitement rather than panic. Because, I thought what was going on! Instead of "hearing" a voice, I "felt" someone talking.I can feel it, but no one can. Moreover, I immediately thought that I had entered a situation similar to Yi Lin's. Yi Lin once felt that someone was calling to her. At this time, I was even more sure that it must be me who sent Yi Lin into this store to buy that strange box and told her where the box was hidden. That voice that I feel now. What excites me is that as long as I get into the same situation as Yilin, I might also "disappear" and solve the whole thing. So, I took a breath and thought about how to communicate with the voice I felt. I was wondering if I could communicate with him through my thoughts—in this case, I had a similar experience: when Chen Changqing returned from his soul, I communicated with him in this way. But at this moment, before I could think about anything, I felt the voice again: "Ask him for the item No. 68 in the Xuanzi box." At this time, the owner of the store had a strange expression, his eyes flickered, and he looked like he had a dark heart. I looked directly at him: "Xuanzi size box, the item No. 68, you, take it out." When I said this, I didn't have any idea about what I said to myself, I just said it as I was told, so the tone was naturally weird. The owner of the shop was stunned, and said, "Didn't you... give it to Miss Yi?" I raised my eyebrows: "The number 67 for Miss Yi──" At this moment, I had a flash of inspiration, remembering that I asked him if he had any information related to that box, and he said no, and then I heard the words "he lied". From this, it can be inferred that the object on the 68th may be related to the box, or at least related to the box. Thinking of this, I stretched out my fingers and held him: "You liar! Take out the item number 68!" The owner of the shop turned blue for a while, but he immediately calmed down and said coldly: "Why do you order me to take out what belongs to me?" He asked me like this, and I didn't know how to answer. I stared at him, waiting for the voice's instructions, but there was silence, and I couldn't feel any voice at all. The owner hurried forward and opened the door: "Please leave, I don't welcome you, go!" Since such a weird situation had happened, how could I be willing to leave.I stared at him, and after a while, the sound was still silent, the situation was embarrassing, and the shop owner had already started to yell and drive away people. He pushed me a few times, I stretched out my hand and grabbed his wrist, he screamed like a pig butcher, I said in a deep voice, "Tell you, the mystery of that box is beyond your imagination!" While struggling, he shouted: "Why don't you tell me, I know!" He just uttered this sentence, I was stunned for a while, and he was also stunned for a while, knowing that I had slipped my mouth, and for a while, the shop fell silent again.I let go of my hand, only to hear him panting continuously, while saying: "I don't know what you're talking about." I sneered: "Stop pretending, you know more than me, but I still advise you to cooperate with me, otherwise, you will get nothing—only trouble, because because of this box, there are already two people Missing, one of them is an ordinary female student, that's all right; the other has supernatural powers, it's a fiancé after surrender──" Next, I spent about ten minutes to make him understand what kind of person Wen Baoyu is. Of course, I emphasized his relationship with Lansi and Lansi's identity. In the end, my conclusion is: "You may not be afraid of the sky, the earth, or the Jade Emperor, but I definitely don't think it will be pleasant if you extract a confession from a decapitated master." The shop owner gave me a face, and I said again: "Besides, there is a force in the dark that is against you. Just now, I heard a voice telling me that you are lying, and telling me that you are lying on the 68th. The objects are related. I believe that Yi Lin came to you to ask for the box because of this voice. I think you should ask for blessings. It would be good if you can keep the status quo. If you are greedy, you may die The place of burial!" These words are naturally more alert, the shop owner panted heavily, looked around, his expression was terrified, but also reluctant, his lips trembled, and he managed to utter a sentence: "But that... the box... It has something to do with the cornucopia, it... might be a cornucopia!" I was taken aback, and lost my voice: "What kind of cornucopia are you talking about? The cornucopia of Shen Wansan in the Ming Dynasty?" He sighed and called, "Where is there a second cornucopia in the world?" I grabbed his skirt: "Do you know what a cornucopia is?" He grabbed my hand instead: "I didn't know at first, but I only found out after reading your account." After he said this, he was suddenly extremely excited and shouted: "I knew you would show up sooner or later. You specialize in destroying rare treasures. Wherever there are treasures, you can go there. No one can talk about you. Once you appear, it will be a catastrophe!" He attacked me with words I had never heard before, so I was dumbfounded, and I let go and looked at him.He repeated it several times before panting and rubbing his chest. I sneered and said: "It's about people's life and death, I can't ignore it. Besides, even if the box is a rare treasure, if you give it to someone, it's not yours." The owner of the store shouted: "As long as I find Yi Lin, I will have a way to get her back!" When he said that, I understood. I know that when he gave the box to Yi Lin, he didn't know what was so rare about it.But after delivering the box, he discovered that the box was "related to the cornucopia"-he probably learned this from Object Sixty-eight. At that time, he had made up his mind to get the box back, but Yi Lin left in a hurry and didn't leave a contact address, so he had to wait for Yi Lin to show up. He didn't wait for Yi Lin, but he waited for me, so he was full of hostility towards me. Knowing the ins and outs of this, I was angry and funny at the same time: "Don't worry, I just want them to come back safely──that box may be the main reason why people disappeared, so I desperately need to know everything about it, sixty-eight Does item number adequately describe the box?" The shop owner murmured: "That box can make people disappear? This... how is it possible, you heard someone tell you again—" I was very impatient and shouted: "Don't talk too much, do you really want to toast and not eat fine wine?" This guy is really a scoundrel, I have made it clear that I can't understand it, and he is not unscrupulous, but there are people in the world who will not die until the Yellow River, he regained his composure, and returned to his previous attitude: " Sorry, I don't want to share what's mine." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and made a "please come out" gesture. I couldn't help getting angry, and I was thinking about how to deal with this guy, when suddenly, from nowhere, a spider the size of a soybean, with a bright red body, landed on the palm of his hand. The little spider didn't look very good except for its bright color, but as soon as it landed on the owner's hand, the owner's whole body shook, his face twitched, as if it had landed on the palm of his hand. Like burning charcoal. Then, he opened his mouth wide and let out a low "ho ho" sound, moreover, sweat broke out all over his head and face, judging from his expression, it was obvious that he was feeling great pain. Strangely, he still stretched out his hand and let the spider rest on his palm without dropping it. When I saw this weird scene, the first thing I thought of was: Lansi has arrived. I hurriedly called out, "Lansi, is that you?" The store door was pushed open, and the person who came in was Lansi, and she had a gloomy and frightening expression——ever since I knew her, I had never seen her with such a frightening expression. Lansi stared at the shop owner with extremely cold eyes, and sneered: "In order to protect your property, do you want to die?" Before the Lansi man appeared, he used that little spider to deal with the shop owner. The shop owner is certainly hateful, but I don't quite agree with Lansi who cast spells as soon as he came up.But at this moment, I was surprised when I heard the words "don't save me from death" from Lansi's mouth.It can be seen from these that Wen Baoyu's situation is extremely dangerous. So for a while, I kept quiet and let Lansi play. Lan Si said again: "If you like fine wine, I'll treat you to eat as much as you want. When you don't want to eat, just tell me." The store owner's appearance at this time was extremely terrifying, his whole body was shaking violently, and although the sound of "ho ho" was low, it sounded soul-stirring.He seemed unable to speak anymore, his eyes were full of horror, and before Lansi finished speaking, he unexpectedly let out a strange howl, bent his knees, and knelt down towards Lansi. Lansi snorted, and when she raised her hand, the spider spat out a strand of red thread, which stuck to Lansi's finger, and then it fell into Lansi's hand. The owner of the store fell on the ground, gasping for breath, and Lan Si shouted: "Hurry up and take out the things related to that box!" The owner of the store panted and said, "Yes... yes..." Lansi walked over, grabbed the owner by the hair, and lifted him up. Lansi's behavior towards the owner of the store was so rude, I called her in a low voice, Lansi sneered: "Don't be polite to him, his ancestors were not good things, most of the things left behind were stolen by chance, some of them At least his life is involved, and his ghost is still there, he will demand his life, he knows it in his own mind, I am trying to save him!" I don't understand all of Lansi's words, but looking at the owner of the store, he really "knows it well". He was still grabbed by Lansi's hair, but he kept saying: "Yes... yes... thank you... Xiangu Help me, I'm going to...get that...thing."
