69. Monkey paws 05

The owner of the antique shop learned that the jade claws he sold to Zhang Qian were actually human bones. He was so scared that he sweated coldly.

He is just a fake antique, and he will come to him to buy antiques. He is basically an amateur and joins in the fun. He is a real antique collector. He comes to him to see things, and he is just a joke! It was accidental when he came to Zhang Qian. He wanted to make a fortune, but who would think that the things sold would be human bones.

The owner of the antique shop raised his hand and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and whispered to Zhang Qian: "Boss Zhang, we entered the store and said that it is hard to talk here."

This antique shop is relatively in a low-level location, and the shops next to it are closed. There are no people in the desert, but the owner is still afraid that he will sell his human bones to customers and that he will not be able to open a small shop that can barely make a living. He will definitely not be able to keep Zhang Qian's money, but at least he will keep his reputation as a small shop in his life.

"Let me tell you inside, I just want to ask about the origin of this man's hand bone." Geng Chongzhi's eyes were taken back from Fang Xia and said to Zhang Qian.

Geng Chongzhi is the head of the Geng family, and Zhang Qian knew on the way. In his opinion, he is the most powerful person among the masters of the Geng family. Geng Chongzhi spoke, and Zhang Qian naturally gave face and agreed.

Geng Chongzhi and Zhang Qian sat down next to a square wooden table in the store. The owner was busy looking for a kettle to make tea for them.

Fang Xia did not go to sit there, and he moved two chairs to the door of the store, one he sat by himself, and the other for Fu Jin. Geng Chongzhi looked sideways and saw Fang Xia approaching Fu Jin and whispering something. Fu Jin nodded, and Fang Xia then smiled so hard that the corners of his eyes bent. One person and one ghost, intimate, as if no one could interfere in their world.

Geng Chongzhi's eyebrows pounded, and suddenly he felt a strange feeling between Fang Xia and Fu Jin, as if he was too close. Fu Jin had an unusual attitude towards Fang Xia. He had known it before, and knew that Fu Jin was very close to Fang Xia, but when he saw him, he obviously didn't have such a strange feeling.

"Sorry, there is nothing to entertain, you will just let it go." The owner brought a plate of peanuts to Geng Chongzhi and Zhang Qian, and poured tea for the two of them respectively. "It's not a good tea, just the bargain I usually drink."

Fang Xia turned around and looked at the wooden table. The owner saw it sharply and asked loudly, "Little brother, will I pour you a cup of tea too?"

"No need, grab a handful of peanuts for me." Fang Xia said as she flipped the copper coin she had in her hand and the wandering soul sealed in the copper coin was released.

It was a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old, with a translucent body and thin body. Seeing Fang Xia take two steps back, exit from the store, then turn around and run away.

"Huh? Running?" Fang Xia showed a little surprise. He encountered this kind of soul that succeeded in Zhenfeng. His first reaction was to escape when he was released.

"Ah? What happened to run away?" the owner who brought the peanuts to Fang Xia asked in confusion.

"Nothing." Fang Xia turned around and grabbed a handful of peanuts from the plate, "Thank you!"

The owner returned to the square table, and Fang Xia flipped the copper coin in his hand. The young wandering soul, who had run away invisible light, soon returned to the copper coin. Fang Xia looked down at the classmate and looked at Fu Jin.

[When you sealed him, he was frightened and didn't react that he had been sealed.]

"There is such a thing?" Fang Xia murmured in a low voice, flipped the copper coin again, and the young wandering soul was released again.

Then, history repeats itself, and the young wandering soul turned his head and ran away again.

Fang Xia: “…?”

Fu Jin:[…I still didn’t react.]

"...This is too slow." Fang Xia finished speaking, and suddenly became interested, "How many times do you think he can only find that he has been blocked?"

Fu Jin glanced at Fang Xia helplessly, but did not stop him.

Since Ma Guangping passed away, Fang Xia was still laughing at him, but Fu Jin knew that he was not happy. Now Fang Xia rarely feels a little prank, so Fu Jin is naturally happy to indulge him.

Fang Xia was sitting at the door to tossing the wandering soul, and the owner had already begun to explain the origin of the monkey's claws.

"That jade claw...I actually didn't collect the bones of the human hand, but a villager from Qishan Village asked me to sell them."

"Qishan Village?" Fang Xia looked back.

The wandering boy who was taken back for the third time and released was no longer running away. Fang Xia peeled a peanut in disappointment. As soon as he put it in his mouth, he heard the owner mention Qishan Village. Qishan Village is the village closest to Taihe Mountain. Fang Xia had only been to yesterday and was sensitive to the three words "Qishan Village".

"Yes, it's the village near Taihe Mountain." The owner nodded, proving that it was the Qishan Village he mentioned, which was the Qishan Village that Fang Xia thought of. "The man's surname is Liu. He came to me about two months ago and said that he accidentally got that thing and asked me to estimate the price."

Two months ago...

At this time, I always feel a little subtle. Fang Xia chewed the peanuts in her mouth, and her thoughts couldn't help but start to spread. Two months ago, the monkey paw was sold by the villagers in Qishan Village. Does that mean that the monkey paw appeared in City D with its owner, the Ghost Sect? Maybe it was in Qishan Village...

It is so close to the time when his master passed away, and so close to the place where his master passed away...

[What's wrong? Your face is not very good.] Fu Jin raised his hand to help Fang Xia block the sunlight coming in from outside and asked in a low voice.

"Fu Jin, you talk about my master's death, and the Ghost Sect..."

[Don't think randomly for now, it will affect your judgment. Let's talk about it after you thoroughly find out the origin of the monkey's claw.]

Fang Xia nodded, calmed his mind, and turned his gaze back to the wandering boy standing in front of him, trembling with fear, while asking him, he raised his ears to listen to the owner inside.

"I saw that the material looks like jade at first glance, but it doesn't look like it closely, but the workmanship is really exquisite, so I estimated it to be 300. The person named Liu was very happy and sold it to me on the spot... I really don't know that this is human bone! Boss Zhang, I will give you all the money, but can you help solve this human bone? It causes evil, and I will also..."

He is in the antique business, and now he sells imitations, but his ancestors actually sell genuine products. Many of the sources of those genuine products are sold by some people who fight for money, because they are making money from dead people, so his ancestors naturally believe in ghosts and gods. The owners are influenced by this and naturally believe in these things.

"Don't worry, that human bone was not intended to return it to you, I have already handed it over to the master." Zhang Qian pointed at Geng Chongzhi and said.

"That's good, that's good..." The owner immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Can you take me to find the villagers who sell your human bones? I want to know where he found this human bones." Geng Chongzhi asked.

"Okay, no problem, I can take you here now." The owner patted his chest and said.

The store owner took Geng Chongzhi to Qishan Village and found the villager named Liu. Zhang Qian went back to the hotel first, intending to come over to the bank to handle the transfer with the store owner later.

Geng Chongzhi and the others finished talking, and Fang Xia also asked almost the same question.

This wandering boy did come to follow them after collecting money from people, but his purpose was not to monitor them.

"That person asked you to come and stare at this box?" Fang Xia followed the sight of the wandering boy, and his eyes fell on the box that Geng Chongzhi was carrying.

"It's mostly a member of the Ghost Sect, the owner of this monkey claw." Geng Chongzhi looked at Fang Xia, "It seems that when you sealed the Yin Talisman, the other party had found the position of this monkey claw. Now he is looking for an opportunity to get the monkey claw back."

Fang Xia shrugged, and he couldn't blame him for one step slowing down, it was a completely uncontrollable accident.

"What does that person look like when burning paper money for you?" Fang Xia asked the wandering boy again.

The wandering boy gestured for a long time, but in the end he only knew that it was a man with a mask and glasses, and there was no other feature to be used as a reference. Masks and glasses were still items that can be taken off, so the fixed feature was only "man", which was completely unreasonable.

"Since that man wants to get the monkey claws back so much and let the little devil report a letter, he will naturally follow him. Don't worry about it for the time being. Let's go to Qishan Village first." Geng Chongzhi said.

"Okay." Fang Xia flipped through the copper coins in his hand, removed the ghost-controlling technique, turned his head to the wandering boy who was stunned and said, "You can leave now. Remember to report a letter to the person who gave you paper money. We are going to Qishan Village."

[You don't want me anymore?] The wandering boy looked up at Fang Xia.

"Our family has rules, and can only raise one ghost." Fang Xia glanced at Fu Jin with a side look and said to the wandering boy.

The wandering boy glanced at Fang Xia a few more times and turned around and left.

Fang Xia followed Geng Chongzhi and the others and walked outside the antique street. He and Fu Jin walked side by side, walking at the end.

[Our family means...?]

"You and my home!" Fang Xia leaned over and whispered, "What? You don't want to?"

Fu Jin looked at Xia above, the corners of her mouth curled up, and a clear smile appeared in her eyes, [My honor.]

This was the first time Fang Xia saw Fu Jin showing such a obvious smile. His eyes stuck to the corner of his mouth and could not move. He walked forward with a floating look under his feet and almost hit Zhang Qian. Fortunately, Fu Jin reminded him in time.

"The first time I saw you laughing like this." Fang Xia came to her senses and scratched her face, "It's very beautiful."

Fu Jin didn't reply, but the smile in her eyes was a little full.

Zhang Qian said goodbye to Fang Xia and his party at the door of the antique shop, and the rest were led by the owner to Qishan Village.
