Chapter 91 Evil Spirits
Chu Tian was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, and asked in surprise, "How did you know I have X-ray vision?"
Lu Xiaoman looked on in astonishment, "You really have it?"
Chu Tian smiled mysteriously, "Otherwise what? If I didn't have X-ray vision, how would I know that there's top-grade imperial green inside this rough stone?"
Lu Xiaoman was stunned for a moment, then felt Chu Tian's malicious gaze lingering on her chest. She quickly covered her chest, her face full of anger.
"Pervert, if you look around again, I'll gouge your eyes out."
Chu Tian shrugged and looked away.
He certainly doesn't have X-ray vision; his so-called discerning eye is merely the ability to distinguish between truth and falsehood.
The reason I said that was simply to tease Lu Xiaoman, but I didn't expect her to be so easily amused.
"Mr. Chu, do you sell this top-quality imperial green jade?"
At this moment, Lei Long calmed his shocked emotions and said to Chu Tian with great anticipation, "I am willing to offer fifty million."
How many?
Fifty million?
These words caused another uproar in the room.
While top-grade imperial green jade is very valuable, Chu Tian's piece is definitely not worth that much money.
Forty million was already a high price, but I didn't expect Lei Long to be willing to pay fifty million.
Wu Liang, standing to the side, felt as if he had swallowed fly excrement.
He originally wanted to see Chu Tian make a fool of himself, but unexpectedly, he not only failed to see a fool of himself, but also multiplied his small sum of 500,000 a hundredfold.
This is an absolute steal; even he couldn't help but feel a little envious.
Lu Xiaoman was also somewhat surprised and said urgently, "Your jade is not worth that much money at all. Fifty million is already a lot. There's nothing to hesitate about."
“Mr. Chu, Miss Lu is right.”
"Your jade is worth at most 40 million, but the reason I offered 50 million is because someone once told me that if I came across a top-grade imperial green jade, I must buy it."
"Because only in this way can I remain safe and sound."
Lei Long took a deep breath and revealed the secret he had kept hidden in his heart for many years.
Chu Tian's expression froze for a moment. "Who is this master you're talking about?"
Lei Long shook his head. "I don't know his name either. It's just that not long ago, by chance, he said that my life would be a bit turbulent, so he told me how to solve it."
"I didn't believe it at first, but I never expected that the master would suddenly disappear in the blink of an eye."
"That's when I realized I had met a master, especially the moment you opened the top-grade imperial green jade. I was even more convinced that the master was no ordinary person."
Chu Tian nodded slightly, but his eyes were filled with shock.
A reclusive master who can appear and disappear without a trace must have a cultivation level above that of a Grandmaster.
Under heaven, only the three sacred mountains of Wudang, Longhu, and Kunlun can have such figures.
However, the three sacred mountains had made an agreement with the mortal world that anyone with a cultivation level of Grandmaster or above could not leave the mountain at will.
As for him, he was an exception.
Furthermore, according to the information currently available to Kunlun Tianmen, no one has descended from the three sacred mountains in the past three years.
So, who could this person be?
Chu Tian was completely bewildered, and a sense of foreboding rose in his heart.
“Mr. Chu, fifty million is indeed a lot. One should not be too greedy.”
Seeing that Chu Tian was still hesitating, Lei Long assumed that he wanted to take the opportunity to raise the price even higher, and his expression became somewhat displeased.
Chu Tian came to his senses and said something astonishing: "Don't even mention fifty million, even if it were five hundred million, I wouldn't sell it."
"What did you say?" Lei Long exclaimed, his face filled with shock.
Chu Tian repeated, "This jade was a birthday gift I gave to Grandma Tang, so even if you gave me 500 million, I wouldn't sell it."
"However, since you provided me with a high-quality raw stone, I will give you a solution."
Lei Long asked in confusion, "What solution?"
Chu Tian countered, "Do you know why that master said your life would be turbulent?"
"why?"
"Because you have attracted evil spirits."
“Evil spirits?” Lei Long frowned. “Mr. Chu, if you don’t understand, don’t talk nonsense. I, Lei Long, have always acted with integrity, and I have a priceless peach wood plaque to protect my home. No evil spirits can get into me, so how could I attract evil spirits?”
"Boss Lei, don't listen to his nonsense. What kind of person is he? Does he even know anything about feng shui? He's obviously a charlatan," Wu Liang mocked from the side.
Chu Tian ignored him and chuckled, "If you don't believe me, just pretend I didn't say anything."
"If you believe me, come downstairs with me."
After saying that, Chu Tian walked back to the first floor and came to the signboard of "Yu Bao Xuan".
It was a peach wood plaque, priceless, a fine item to ward off evil spirits and protect the home.
But at this moment, the peach wood plaque exuded a strong, malevolent aura, chilling and unsettling.
Lei Long followed, though he didn't believe Chu Tian's words from the bottom of his heart, he still had a sliver of hope in his heart.
What if?
"Chu Tian, has Boss Lei really been summoned by evil spirits?"
Lu Xiaoman, who did not believe in ghosts and gods, asked in surprise.
"Yes."
Chu Tian pointed to the peach wood plaque and nodded, saying, "Logically speaking, this peach wood plaque should indeed be able to ward off evil spirits and protect the house. But there's something wrong with this plaque; it seems to be hiding some malevolent object inside."
"That's why Boss Lei attracted evil spirits, and that's why the master made his prophecy."
Lu Xiaoman was skeptical, feeling that something was amiss.
Lei Long also looked incredulous. "Mr. Chu, I've already told you about the master's prophecy, and now you're telling me you've found an evil spirit? Don't you think that's a bit of hindsight?"
Chu Tian suddenly said, "Boss Lei, if I'm not mistaken, you should have a black snake tattoo on your chest!"
Lei Long froze instantly, utterly horrified.
"You, how do you know?"
Chu Tian smiled calmly, "I not only know that you have a black snake tattoo on your chest, but I also know that this tattoo is now as if it were alive."
“It releases evil energy every day, eroding your bones and meridians.”
"Therefore, every night at noon, you will be in excruciating pain, which will keep you awake all night."
"And because of long-term poor sleep quality, your eyes are sunken, am I right?"
Thunder Dragon was struck dumb, frozen in place as if by lightning.
all hit.
Chu Tian is right, he does have these symptoms.
I asked the doctor, but the doctor couldn't find the root cause of the problem. He just said that I hadn't rested well and told me to get some rest.
But I didn't expect...
"Mr. Chu, please save my life."
Suddenly, Lei Long, regaining his senses, knelt down on the ground with a thud.
His symptoms were so obvious that he must be a hermit master.
However, Chu Tian ignored him and said indifferently, "Boss Lei, I only told you about the symptoms because of that raw stone."
"But I don't think I said I would treat you, did I?"
