The Three Spirit Stones

The next day, Xiao Zhang and his friends went to the industrial zone again.

They found one of the vice presidents of the industrial zone under the identity of an employee of Hongguang Group.

After meeting the vice president, Xiao Zhang said that their group wanted to set up a factory here and was now investigating a suitable location.

When Vice President Liu heard this, he realized that Hongguang Group is a famous listed company!

The attitude suddenly became enthusiastic.

He invited several people to his office, introduced them to the plan of the entire industrial zone, and promised them that if Hongguang Group really built a factory here, the rent could be reduced by 30% in the first three years, and water and electricity would be provided to them at the most favorable prices.

After chatting for a while, everyone became familiar with each other. Xiao Zhang asked Vice President Liu which construction team their industrial zone used in the beginning?

Because their group might acquire land here to build houses in the future, Vice President Liu immediately gave him the business card of the boss of the original engineering company.

After receiving the business card, the four of them immediately said goodbye to Vice President Liu and went to find Boss Zhao on the business card.

When we went to Mr. Zhao's company, several people said that they were introduced by Vice President Liu.

Boss Zhao was very enthusiastic when he saw that it was an acquaintance who introduced them. After they sat down, Xiao Zhang explained the purpose of their visit to Boss Zhao and looked at their qualification certificates.

After everyone chatted for an hour and got familiar with each other, Xiao Zhang asked him, how many masters were operating excavators in the industrial zone at that time?

I want to meet them because Hongguang Group wants to buy land and build houses in Yan'an. They who operate excavators may have a better understanding of the geology here, and I would like to seek their opinions.

Boss Zhao was also very straightforward. He immediately called his assistant over and asked him to take Xiao Zhang and others to meet the excavator master.

Xiao Zhang and his friends followed the assistant to the construction site, where the excavator was working.

He stopped an excavator and asked the driver to get off.

The assistant introduced Xiao Zhang and several others to the master. Xiao Zhang greeted him and then handed out cigarettes and lit the fire.

Men are simple, they start talking as soon as they smoke a cigarette.

They talked about the soil quality of several construction sites nearby and gave a lot of professional advice.

Finally, Xiao Zhang mentioned intentionally or unintentionally that they often dug up some strange stones when doing projects. Some of these strange stones could be sold at sky-high prices if they had special shapes. He asked the excavator master if he had ever dug up any of them.

The master said that he had dug a lot of stones, but most of them were very ordinary and nothing special.

When he was feeling disappointed, he suddenly said,

I seem to have heard Brother Bin say a few years ago that he dug up a black stone. The stone was shiny black and had many ancient characters engraved on it. Later, it was taken away by the contractor of their construction team. He also said that the stone might be quite valuable and he regretted not hiding it at the time.

When Xiao Zhang and the others heard this, they were so excited that they almost got goose bumps.

No matter how hard you try, you won't be able to find anything, and it won't take any effort at all!

Isn’t this the Black Demon Spirit?

They hurriedly asked where the contractor was now?

The master said that the contractor was called Chen Hezhang. He used to live in Ansai District, but no one knew where he moved to later.

After getting this important clue, several people immediately returned to the hotel.

The other dozen members were divided into five or six teams and searched the entire city of Yan'an.

They specifically went to parks, vegetable markets and other places where people gathered to gather information.

At the same time, Lu Mingzhu and several network-savvy team members were searching the Internet for local news from several nearby cities.

A piece of news caught the attention of a team member. It was released by a temple called Black Dragon Temple in Yanchuan County.

We are planning to hold a grand ceremony to eliminate disasters and pray for blessings on the 9th of this month. We will invite eminent monks from more than a dozen temples to participate. We warmly welcome all believers to join us!

He immediately called them over, and Lu Mingzhu asked him to look up the information about the Black Dragon Temple.

It only says that the Black Dragon Temple was built a year and a half ago, funded by a boss named Chen Hezhang.

This temple is very effective. It is rumored that many seriously ill patients recovered after visiting here, so it is very popular.

Team member Adi said, "This Dharma Assembly is so grand, with monks from more than a dozen temples participating. These people have great appeal, and there are at least 8,000 believers on the scene."

"Although we cannot be sure that this Black Dragon Temple is related to the Black Demon Spirit, we still need to go and take a look at the situation,"

"Tomorrow is the 9th. As soon as they come back, we will set off for Tingchuan County."

At this time, some team members who were out gathering information also came back. They gathered the information together.

There were about ten large-scale gatherings in nearby cities, including square dance competitions, promotional activities, marathon races, and the Black Dragon Temple rituals.

At this time, Xiao Zhang and his friends came back.

As soon as he came back, he told everyone the news he had gathered. When he said that the Black Demon Spirit was taken away by a man named Chen Hezhang, several people screamed in surprise.

Chen Hezhang?

Adi immediately checked his browsing history, which clearly showed that the Black Dragon Temple was funded and built by a boss named Chen Hezhang.

This is a real deal!

Lu Feng said, "This Chen Hezhang is what the predecessors called a matchmaker. He used religious beliefs to spread the reputation of the temple's efficacy. When most people have trust in the temple, he will hold a large-scale ritual to gather believers...,"

"Oh my god! What about the ritual tomorrow...!"

"If what the senior said is true, then tomorrow's ritual will be a massacre."

Hearing this, everyone felt horrified.

"Well, regardless of whether it is true or not, everyone should be prepared and act accordingly tomorrow."

"Yes, Mr. Lu."

When everyone left, Lu Feng left his daughter behind.

He took out a jade Guanyin statue and hung it around his daughter's neck, saying, "Mingzhu, there may be danger tomorrow."

"This jade Guanyin was given to me by my senior before,"

"He told me to press this little switch if I encountered a very dangerous situation,"

Lu Feng pointed to a place on the Jade Guanyin. Lu Mingzhu looked carefully and found that there was indeed a small mechanism there.

She held up the Jade Guanyin to the light and saw that it was crystal clear, with some faint white light inside.

"so beautiful!"

She couldn't help but let out an exclamation of praise.

"Dad, this piece of jade should be a piece of Hetian jade, but I have never seen such beautiful Hetian jade."

"This jade Guanyin has the aura of a fairy,"

"But Senior said that if you were in danger, I would press this little mechanism. I really don't understand."

"If it can ward off evil and protect you, then why do you need to press here?"

Lu Mingzhu smiled.

"Dad, why are you so bothered by this?"

"It's just a talisman. Do you want it to have any special functions?"

"It's hard to say. After all, this is a treasure given by the senior."

"Hey, Dad, I see you keep calling me senior. I really want to see who this person is that my dad admires so much."

Lu Mingzhu laughed even more happily, and Lu Feng also laughed.

"If there is a chance, there must be a chance."
