Merchant of the Underworld

I glanced at the Brontosaurus and was dumbfounded for a moment. The thunder dragon in front of me has a sunken sky, and a layer of black light mist is covering its head. Folks commonly call it: the breath of death!

The Brontosaurus was lifeless, and the mold spots on its body gave me the feeling of a walking corpse. He must have suffered a bloody disaster recently, and his life is not long.

Brontosaurus noticed that I had been staring at him, and asked me a little guiltily what was wrong, was there something wrong?

The secret must not be leaked. Since he deserves to die, I cannot stop him, otherwise it will be against the will of heaven.

I dare not go against the will of heaven, but for this stranger, a woman would rather get married to the underworld to protect the life of the thunder dragon. At this point, I feel deeply ashamed!

Maybe we really misunderstood the female ghost. Her starting point may really be to protect the Brontosaurus...but we are blinded by the appearance.

However, I am deeply puzzled. The woman has nothing to do with the Thunder Dragon. Why would she sacrifice her life to protect the Thunder Dragon? I could not understand.

Li Mazi pushed me gently and asked me what I was thinking about. I smiled bitterly and said it was nothing.

I picked up the golden bowl and observed it carefully. The fog that had been hanging on the golden bowl disappeared, and the cold touch was gone. It should have really returned to normal.

"Look, look, look." Thunder Dragon suddenly shouted in surprise: "The moldy areas on my body are starting to return to normal."

I immediately turned my head and looked over, and found that the body of the Brontosaurus was indeed returning to normal at a speed visible to the naked eye. The mildew spots receded piece by piece, revealing the original normal skin.

Li Mazi was also overjoyed and took off his pants to show me his butt. The mold on it was also fading away quickly.

Lei Jun was so excited that he quickly called his wife and bought a lot of food and wine to celebrate.

They stayed up like this until dawn, and both of their bodies returned to normal. After taking a bath, they were no different from normal people. Thunder Dragon told me that now he is strong and even more radiant than before. .

After dawn, I took the golden bowls and chopsticks with me and prepared to go back.

But just as we were about to leave, there was a knock on the door.

Thunder Dragon said excitedly that his wife was back and hurried to open the door.

But standing at the door was an aging couple. The two of them were dressed as farmers, hunched over, and the old man had a white towel wrapped around his head, which made him look even more rustic.

The old man asked in a hoarse voice: "Excuse me, do you have any antiques for sale here?"

I saw through this poor acting at a glance, and I realized that the arrival of the two people was probably related to the golden bowl.

Before the Brontosaurus rejected the old couple, I walked up to them, said yes with a smile, invited them in, and then locked the door.

"We recycle various antiques at high prices. Do you have any antiques here?" the old man asked anxiously, with a bit of fear in his tone.

I smiled and said, "I've never seen anyone collecting antiques like this. Old sir, is there something wrong with you?"

"No...no." The old man immediately stammered and shook his head: "We are here just to collect antiques. There is no other purpose."

His sneaky eyes were looking around the room, and I knew he was definitely looking for the pair of golden dishes and chopsticks.

I suddenly realized that this pair of old people seemed to be the real owners of the golden bowl.

I smiled lightly and said, "Are you looking for this?" After saying that, I showed the golden bowl in my hand to the two old people.

When the two saw the golden bowl, they immediately became excited.

The old woman said in a hoarse voice: "This is an antique. How much does it cost? We want it."

"Okay, stop pretending." Li Mazi was a serious antique dealer who traveled around the streets, so he recognized the abnormality of this old woman at a glance: "You are the original owner of this golden bowl, come on What is the purpose of this place? Tell me. Does this golden bowl have any dirty secrets?"

When Li Mazi said this, the two old men were startled and looked at the golden bowl awkwardly, not knowing what to say. But the old couple should be really in love, holding hands and encouraging each other all the time.

I saw that the old couple didn't look like bad people, so I poured them a cup of tea and told them not to be nervous. The golden bowls and chopsticks had been conquered by us and there would be no more problems.

No matter how stupid Thunder Dragon was, he could still see the purpose of the old couple's coming. He suddenly became furious and shouted: "I didn't see it. You two are so old, and you still want to harm others? Do you know? My family was almost destroyed by you. Huh, if you don’t give me an explanation today, you will be waiting for a lawsuit."

The old couple were immediately frightened, but the old man stood up bravely and said, "This matter has nothing to do with my wife. If you want to be sued, just sue me. Don't involve her!"

The old woman's tears suddenly fell down: "Please don't sue us. We don't know about it either. Please go around me."

Seeing that the old couple were frightened, I quickly went to comfort the two old people: "Don't be afraid, as long as you explain the matter clearly, we will not embarrass you. Now I just want to know the origin of this golden bowl. What do you think? Understood, we will naturally let you go."

The Thunder Dragon was unwilling to give in and wanted to threaten the two old people again, but I stopped him with my eyes.

The old man finally sighed helplessly, and then said: "You are doing evil, you are doing evil, I will say it, I will say anything."

The old man then told us the origin of the golden bowl in detail.

This golden bowl, together with the golden chopsticks, were handed down from their ancestors.

There is a legacy left in the family tree, saying that their ancestors lived in this golden bowl. No matter how poor they were, or even if they couldn't survive, they could not sell the golden bowl. And on every first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, this golden bowl must be worshiped.

Before, their ancestors had a little money, so it was no problem to worship this golden bowl.

However, when the old man reached his generation, his family was in decline. Because he had no children, it was a problem for both of them to eat.

There happened to be an antique collector some time ago, and I accidentally heard that their family had an ancestral golden bowl, so I came to their house to ask for it.

The old couple originally did not plan to sell it, after all, it was a family heirloom. However, the old couple couldn't stand the glibness of the antique collector, and coupled with the temptation of money, the old couple finally gritted their teeth and sold the gold bowl and chopsticks.

But after selling the golden bowls and chopsticks, their lives changed dramatically. Although I was poor before, my daily life was stress-free and carefree.

But since selling the Golden Bowl, although their living conditions have been greatly improved, they still have uneasy consciences and have nightmares every day. They always feel that their ancestors are pointing at them and scolding them.

Days like this were really torturous. In the end, the old man regretted so much that his intestines turned blue, and he even thought about death.

The old couple realized that this was not going to work, so after discussion, the old couple decided to redeem the golden bowl again.

After a lot of effort, they finally found out the address of the antique collector and took a ride to find him.

But when I found the person who collected the antiques, I found that the person had died mysteriously...

The old couple were shocked by the news, because they vaguely guessed that this man's mysterious death was probably related to the Golden Bowl.

Because their ancestors told them that things live in golden bowls.

Later, after asking around, he found out that we were here. And they also found out that the Thunder Dragon was evil.

After much thought, the old couple solemnly decided to take care of the mess themselves, and that's when they came to the door.

But we never expected that we had already eliminated the resentful spirits in the golden bowl...
