Shi Jian: As the great emperor, I should suppress all enemies in the world.

Chapter 8 Businessmen in Huadu, strange playing cards

Right here, Shi Jian's Maoshan disciples were coming down the mountain.

Huadu.

into the night.

Moon stars are rare.

The gates at various street entrances in Huadu began to slowly close. Someone hung an oil lamp on the gate to illuminate it. Except for the road from Xihaokou to Dongdi, which is a main road, the rest of the roads are inner streets and narrow alleys. .

Not many people go out at night.

Unless you are walking through some small alleys.

Otherwise, you won’t get far.

There are also soldiers patrolling the streets. If they encounter anyone suspicious, they will arrest them.

Yazhuzhai.

As an antique shop that can establish a firm foothold in the provincial capital.

Yazhuzhai has some tricks.

More importantly, Yazhuzhai has two faces.

During the day, he is a dedicated businessman.

At night, foreigners and some big men with their faces covered would enter the house and then leave.

Regarding selling antiques to foreigners.

Some antique shops have taboos.

If anyone knew about this, the sign would be smashed.

even though.

Huadu is in name only, and only the Thirteenth Line can do business with foreigners and ghosts.

But actually.

these years.

The business scope of the foreign ghost guy has long exceeded the scope of the Thirteenth Bank.

Not only that, Yazhuzhai also doesn't follow rules. Some of the business they do are antiques that cannot be bought and sold.

That is, the body that was dug out of the tomb just now.

Some foreigners like to collect corpses of ancient people.

As for what to do with these corpses.

No one will know.

but,

Just like today, in the middle of the night, a few people looked at the street entrance furtively, fearing that someone would come out from the street entrance.

Usually something bad happens.

Or maybe you want to do something shady.

Things that can only be done.

Some coolies took the corpse out of Yazhu Zhai, intending to tie it with stones and throw it into the river. Flower City was covered with water and swamps. In this troubled world, it was not surprising that a corpse floated out from there from time to time.

But before making such a move, someone walked out.

He was dressed in full black attire and had a cane in his hand.

What's more, it's inside his breast pocket.

Also contains a playing card.

Look at this playing card.

It should be 3 of hearts.

He held his cane and frowned at the corpses on the ground, his expression unclear.

He hung the pipe to his lips.

The pipe was lit.

It tastes like expensive tobacco.

Spraying in the flower capital that is not cold, these workers wear short shirts even if it is hot.

But this foreigner was cold all over.

Even wearing such heavy clothes.

There is still no feeling of heat.

"Are you sure how many bodies there are here?"

He communicated in the slang of his own country, and those working there could not understand him.

After a while.

He nodded.

It seemed like something was really responding to him.

His eyes were also watching the corpses.

Especially after seeing these corpses, their lower abdomens were bulging.

He frowned even more.

——Seven corpses, the owner of Yazhuzhai and his family are all on them, there are only two female corpses, but now these corpses are starting to grow bigger.

not only that.

The corpse here is not that of the boss’s family, nor is it one of the guys here.

It is a "city patrol horse".

"call."

The foreigner also looked at the scene in front of him solemnly. He was not the one who killed these people. He was absolutely sure of this. When he came tonight, things had already happened.And this "city patrol horse" does not deliver goods at night.

In other words.

The people here have been dead for some time.

Just as an antique store.

The door curtains here are usually closed.

employees only.

Only regular customers know it and come in through the small door.

So that also avoids private discovery here, but now the question is.

Several Qing Dynasty people died.

He didn't care.

What he cared about was that what he wanted was missing.

This "city patrol horse" is the person who brings things to this shop.

The so-called "city patrol horse" is actually what couriers are called today.

“Everything is gone, can I really run away with long legs?
If only I could run with longer legs.

That thing was really shocking. "

He took out a flat wine bottle and poured the white wine inside on the corpses. The corpses began to twitch inexplicably.

Many insects came out of the nostrils!

See here.

He didn't think it was strange. His liquor had something else added to it.

"Heretics."

A hint of disgust flashed in the foreigner's eyes, and a spark came out of the pipe and landed on the corpse!
"Boom".

Like a fire cooking oil.

It frightened everyone around him.

The foreigner took another puff of his pipe and said in a stern tone: "Okay, I don't need you anymore. You go back and tell your boss that this time, there was an irresistible external force, and it was an accident.

This time the cooperation was terminated.

But it doesn't matter, we will cooperate again next time. "

He ignored the coolies around him.

There is no intention to silence him.

He knew that some wizards from the Far East had taken action here.

It seems that thing.

Surprisingly popular.

Even those people were alarmed.

The wizards' methods are more disgusting and weird than the last. Today, they came into contact with the corpses. None of the people who carried the corpses had any chance of surviving.

And, they will bring this terrible curse to their relatives, their families.

Without him taking action to silence them, they would die on their own.

The death was extremely miserable.

Even those officials from the Qing Dynasty wanted to investigate.

Can't find anything on him.

He doesn't need to worry too much.

Taking another puff on his pipe, he calmly changed to his hometown dialect and said: "Then what do you think? Zhou wrote to us, saying that their tomb robbers have recently dug out the good things we want from the cemetery.

But now, Zhou is dead.

The good things that might have appeared have disappeared.

In this case, that thing might be really good, is it worth digging deeper into it? "

"What, no need? There are still a lot of good things here waiting for us to dig out and leave? Okay, okay, do as you say. I heard that some ancient bronzes have been leaked out of the black market recently. It seems to be something from the Zhou Dynasty. It is said to be quite ancient. , I think the King of Hearts will like this thing, I'll go over and have a look.

Poor Zhou. "

He blew out a smoke ring and left here decisively.

Yazhuzhai was left empty.

Half an hour passed.

The coolies who had left came back again. They looked at each other and walked in!
They haven't forgotten.

Saw it before myself.

The people inside, from top to bottom, from old to young, are all dead.

Doesn't that mean that everything inside is completely undefended?
Thinking of this, they could no longer restrain their greed and came back.

Just after opening the door of Yazhuzhai.

They were stunned.

The shopkeeper of Yazhuzhai, Zhou Yuchuan, who was already dead, was sitting upright in the shop. When he saw them coming in, he smiled and said, "Are you here? Let's watch the tea!"

A few coolies were horrified and wanted to leave. As soon as they turned around, the door behind them was closed!
"We are all guests. Zhou has not entertained them properly, and they are about to leave. Is this too disrespectful to me, Zhou?"

Speaking of here.

The shop door is closed.

Not a single sound came out.

Very quiet!
