Chapter 490: Strange Stories of the Republic of China
This, this, this, if it were passed down to later generations, it would be so valuable.
"Wow! Auntie Jiu, you have good taste. It's a foreign product. Go ahead and buy it. Wearing my watch, you will be the most beautiful girl in this town!"
Jiuge thought about how much private money the original owner had, and she said, "What's the price?"
Foshanzi's eyes sparkled, "Auntie Jiu is so discerning, I'll give you a discount, a huge discount! One hundred dollars."
"Okay, thank you, you can go now."
"Hey, this is already the lowest price. Others can't buy it even if they want it. I got it from a missionary. Auntie Jiu, this is more than enough for you."
"Fifty!"
"ninety."
"forty!"
"Why are they getting less and less?! Eighty!"
"thirty!"
"That's too much! Seventy is the lowest price. You don't want me to leave!"
"make a deal!"
"It's... a good deal!"
In this way, Jiuge used half of the original owner's private money to buy several watches. Foshanzi thought he could only sell one, but he didn't expect to sell so many. He felt so sad that he cried:
"Wow, Auntie Nine, you saved my life. I haven't sold a single piece in a year."
Jiuge hid the watch and said to him, "You didn't find the right buyer. Who among us common people wants this thing? You have to go to the mansions, where the dignitaries live. Also, go to the hospital and find those who live in the high-end wards. Be thick-skinned and they will definitely sell your watch to you."
“You have to know that the value of some things is not measured by money, but by time.”
Foshanzi nodded, "I understand, Aunt Jiu, I will never forget you."
However, "Aunt Jiu, please pay attention recently. I heard that something happened in the town. Someone came out of Bijia Mountain. In just a few days, there was no trace of his body. There was only a pool of blood... uh uh."
“Ah? Why is this happening!” The original owner knew that they were all dead, but he didn’t hear that they turned into a pool of blood. Could it be that the Ghost King ate them all?
She said, "I understand. Be careful. No matter who tells you to go to the back hill, you are not allowed to go."
"Oh, okay, I'll listen to you."
……
There are already deaths in the town, but the mayor has not let anyone leak any information. After all, these people were brought to the mountain by his daughter.
Jiuge naturally couldn't let anyone go up the mountain anymore. In order to stop Jin Wei from bringing people up the mountain again, she secretly spread the rumor that Jin Wei tricked people into going to the back mountain and then sacrificed them to evil spirits.
Most people of this era were superstitious. Although there was no clear evidence that Jin Wei had done anything, the people were respectful of her and kept their distance from the mayor's family when the rumor spread.
Jin Wei's plan failed, and she sent people to find out who was destroying her plan, but unfortunately no one was found.
Jiuge knew that she would not give up, so she had been following her in secret. After seeing her bringing the prisoners from the jail up the mountain, Jiuge attacked her.
As soon as it touched her body, the talisman paper she flew out was blocked by something. Jiuge guessed that she must have a protective spell cast by the Ghost King on her body, blocking her attack.
She had no choice but to follow them into the forest. Fortunately, it was daytime and the ghosts did not dare to come out at this time, which made her journey much smoother.
After entering the Bijia Mountain, Jiuge clearly felt a chill rushing straight to the top of her head. She sensed that the mountain was filled with an aura of death and a smell of decay. It was simply a mountain of graves. No wonder the original owner ended up dying in a mountain.
Jin Wei led those people to a cave entrance, and then she stepped aside.
Those people didn't see anything, and they couldn't help but get angry and said, "Hey, didn't we move things? Why is there nothing?"
Although Jin Wei's pretty face showed reluctance, she wanted to save her life, "Just think of it as me being sorry to you."
Those people wanted to get angry, but when they felt the strange cold air around them, they became extremely frightened one by one.
They also discovered that the ground at the entrance of the cave was covered in blood. Several people were shocked. "What is this? What's going on? Jin Wei, what the hell are you doing?"
Jin Wei was afraid of seeing those horrific scenes, so she ran away without looking back, "I'm sorry, I didn't want to do that either."
Those people were a little scared, "No, what is she doing? Didn't she say she would let us go if we did her a favor? Why did she run away?"
Several people didn't know what to do for a moment. At this moment, there was a rustling sound coming from the cave in front of them. They looked up and saw white smoke coming out of the cave. Suddenly, a shriveled hand like black charcoal stretched out.
Several people were so frightened that they stood there in a daze. By the time they reacted and wanted to run, the things in the cave had already crawled out with twisted bodies. They were a group of hideous mummies with hideous faces, as if they had been burnt by fire. Their lower legs were missing, and their bodies were covered with countless gold, silver and jewels.
Seeing the people at the entrance of the cave, they bared their horrible fangs and screamed, "The money is mine, thieves, be buried with me!"
"Nooooooooooo!! Ghost!!"
The prisoners were frightened by this scene and were stunned. When they finally remembered to run, it was too late. The monsters roared and turned into a cloud of black smoke, instantly knocking down the prisoners.
Jiuge also arrived at this time. She took Xiaoqing and fought with the monsters, "You evil creature, stop it!"
The prisoners saw a lifeline and cried for help.
The monsters also rushed towards her, but after Jiuge chopped them to death, they were all cut into several pieces. Their remains would still attack Jiuge. She was shocked: "What the hell are you?"
No one answered her, so she could only keep fighting. These monsters disappeared for a while and reappeared again, and Jiuge felt a little frustrated.
The monsters' gazes were fixed on the prisoners again. Their shriveled skulls roared, and the prisoners were frightened out of their wits. Soon some of the prisoners who could not bear such shock stopped breathing on the spot, and their terrified looks did not change until their death.
When the prisoners died, their spirits flew into the air, where they fluttered around like headless flies, but they could not get out of the mountain.
Jiuge only then realized that this mountain was even more weird than she had imagined.
At this time, a gust of cold wind blew, as if something was coming, and the dead leaves in the woods were all rolled up. The monsters that were still fighting with Jiuge suddenly changed direction and rushed towards that thing, roaring.
A figure suddenly appeared in the dead leaves. It was the Ghost King Chu Chen. With a wave of his hand, he devoured the soul of a prisoner. His power increased a lot. He smiled contemptuously at the monsters in front of him and said, "A bunch of trash, you want to stop me."
The monsters seemed unhappy that he had devoured his soul, so they opened their bloody mouths and bit him.
