Seeing that the hexagram finally pointed to Charlie,
Maria’s heart suddenly became tense again.
She knew Charlie’s strength, most people could not possibly pose any threat to his safety.
The person who can put him in a dangerous situation must be superior in strength.
She couldn’t help thinking to herself, “Could it be that the other earls from the Warriors Den are coming to Aurous Hill?!”
“It must be so! Otherwise, Charlie wouldn’t remind me to be careful!”
Thinking of this, she subconsciously took out her mobile phone and wanted to call Charlie.
However, when she picked up the phone, she didn’t know how to speak.
After all, she has been acting stupid in front of him,
And finally, let him let down his guard against herself.
If she takes the initiative to warn at this time, she is afraid he will be suspicious again.
However, after thinking about it, Maria still felt that she should warn him.
After all, Charlie was her savior. He was in danger.
She might not be able to help him solve it, but at least she could warn him in advance.
So, after deliberation, she came to the balcony and called him.
At this time, Charlie was on his way back.
When he stopped at the traffic light, his mobile phone just received a call from an unknown number.
After connecting, he heard Maria’s voice from the other end of the phone,
“Brother Charlie, I’m Cathy…”
Charlie asked her curiously,
“Cathy, what’s the matter? Do you have anything to do with me?”
Maria hesitated for a moment and asked, “Brother Charlie,”
“I wonder if it’s convenient for you to tell me. When is your birthday?
“What are you doing for my birthday?”
Maria proceeded layer by layer with the words she had already thought up, and said,
“Just now you told us not to leave the school casually,”
“I guess you might be afraid that we might be in danger,”
“So I did a fortune-telling for ourselves…”
“The fortune-telling ?” Charlie remembered that when he saw Maria in Northern Europe,
There were nine copper coins on her desk,
And he guessed that it might be used for fortune-telling, but he never confirmed it.
He also called Qinghua to ask about it. Qinghua once mentioned to him that if the nine copper coins were really used for divination,
Then it might be the legendary hexagram that has been lost.
It is so high that even Mr. Lai himself dared not look it up.
Charlie thought at the time that Maria’s nine copper coins were probably just a coincidence,
But now it seems that she might really be proficient in the gossip of the Book of Changes.
However, he still pretended to be curious and asked her,
“Cathy, do you know how to tell fortunes?”
He smiled and said, “It shouldn’t be so mysterious, right?”
Maria smiled slightly, and said, “I don’t know if it’s really so mysterious.”
Then, she brought her attention back to the topic of Charlie’s birthday,
And continued “Brother Charlie, would you like to give me your date of birth, and I’ll do the math for you?”
Charlie didn’t feel anything wrong at this time.
Maria grasped the progressive rhythm of her speech skills very well.
She knew all the information about him,
But she still called to ask about Charlie’s birthday,
Just to create a feeling that she had never investigated Charlie at all,
And let him believe that she simply wanted to make a count for him.
That’s why she called to ask about his birthday.
As for why she had to do the fortune-telling for him,
The reason was also very good. Charlie had been telling them to be careful all the time.
The reason why he said this was that he hoped that she would not leave the university in the near future.
It would be strange if she didn’t understand this.
Therefore, after she understood this point, she made a fortune for herself.
After doing the math, she found that she was not in any danger,
And she wanted to do the math for Charlie out of gratitude,
So she called to ask about his birthday because of this, and everything went back to the beginning.
In this way, the logic can be self-consistent.
Sometimes it takes a hundred lies to explain a lie.
The reason is that it is difficult for liars to be logical and self-consistent,
And they are always discovered by others;
But for a girl like Maria who is extremely smart, before the lie is uttered,
It has completed logical self-consistency and formed a closed loop in the brain,
So after Charlie heard it, he didn’t notice anything abnormal at all.
He felt that Maria wanted to make a fortune call for him, probably out of kindness.
Thinking of this, he didn’t hide anymore and told her his birthday.
Maria couldn’t help feeling relieved when she heard that the birthday Charlie said was exactly the same as the birthday on the information that she found.
It seems that Charlie should really trust her.
So, she said, “Brother Charlie, I will do the math for you now, and I will tell you as soon as I have the result.”
Later Charlie received a message from Maria as soon as he entered the gate of his home.
Maria wrote in the message,
“Brother Charlie, I did the math for you. The hexagram shows that you may encounter a very serious danger in the near future.”
“The danger comes from the north, and there is no way to resolve it.”
“You must be careful in coming times!”
Charlie couldn’t help frowning when he saw this message,
Instead of getting out of the car, he replied to the message and asked,
“What does it mean that can’t resolve it?”
“Can’t you avoid it?” Maria replied, “Yes. …There is no way to resolve it, you can only face it…”
Charlie’s expression suddenly froze.
He had an intuition that what Maria said was definitely not fabricated out of thin air.
Combined with her mysterious identity background,
Her understanding and mastery of the I Ching gossip may really surpass Qinghua’s.
Therefore, this further proves that what she said was targeted.
More importantly, the moment Charlie saw her, he had a bad premonition.
Grandma’s family came to Aurous Hill, and Maria also came to Aurous Hill.
At that time, his first thought was that the Earl of the Warriors Den might also be on his way to Aurous Hill.
Looking at it now, the danger Maria mentioned is probably exactly the same as his own guess.
Charlie’s heart suddenly became tense.
He felt like a soldier guarding a fortress,
The sound of the enemy’s iron hooves was getting closer,
But he didn’t know whether to guard the east wall or the west wall.
Just when he felt that he was running out of resources,
He suddenly remembered the details that Maria had just mentioned on the phone.
Maria said that she had made a fortune call for herself,
And the fortune call showed that she was not in any danger.
In this way, what he has to guard is his wife and grandparents.
Grandpa, Grandma, and the whole family are in Wanliu Mountain Villa.
With so many people coming from the United States,
It is very difficult not to be noticed by those who are interested.
Therefore, Charlie concluded that if the other party came to Aurous Hill,
The target should be his maternal family!
From Charlie’s point of view, although the Warriors Den is likely to come for Grandpa and Grandma,
Since Maria said that he is in danger, it means that he may have to go through a fierce battle.
Charlie is not afraid of fierce battles.
From the day he was lucky enough to survive when he was eight years old, he knew that every day he was alive was earned.
What he was afraid of was that if his grandparents and his wife were in danger at the same time, he would not be able to divide himself.
Thinking of this, the first thought that came to his mind was to find a way to get Claire to leave Aurous Hill first.
If Claire is not in Aurous Hill, he would really have no worries and could concentrate on protecting his grandparents.
However, Charlie couldn’t think of a way to make Claire leave Aurous Hill without any doubt.
In the beginning, he wanted to create a routine of “accidentally winning the big prize” for Elaine,
So that people would pretend to be the person in charge of a company’s winning event and give directly to Elaine a ten-day multi-country tour in Europe,
And then give her a place to accompany her, and specify that the accompanying must be female. In this way, if Elaine wants to go, she can only call Claire to accompany her.
However, he thought about it again, Claire had been studying in the United States recently,
And after returning, she was full of career ambitions. If Elaine really asked her to go on a trip for ten days, she might not agree.
Moreover, no matter what method he uses to distract Claire, he must ensure success.
If the trip abroad fails, and he finds another opportunity, then Claire may notice the abnormality.
After thinking about it, he suddenly thought of Stella in the United States.
If Stella approached Claire for work matters, then Claire would not refuse.
Not only because Claire is very concerned about work, but also because she has always felt in her heart that she owes Stella a lot of favors for the master class of the School of Design.
If Stella asks her for help, then she will definitely not refuse!
So, Charlie immediately took out his mobile phone and called Stella.
It was morning in the United States at this time, Stella had just arrived at her office at the headquarters of the Fei Group, and before she could sit down, she received a call from Charlie.
After receiving Charlie’s call, she was overjoyed. She quickly adjusted her breathing rate a few times, then connected the phone, and asked calmly, “Mr. Wade, do you need me?”
Charlie hummed, Said, “Miss Fei, I have something that I need your help with.”
Stella said without thinking, “Mr. Wade, you can order anything.”
Charlie asked her, “Miss Fei, I would like to know if your Fei Group has any real estate projects that are being promoted in the United States recently?”
“Yes, In New York, we have a number of commercial real estate projects under development and construction.”
Charlie asked again, “Is there any project that is just about to start or is under preparation?”
“Yes.” Stella said, “We have a commercial center in New York. Preparations are underway, and it will be officially launched soon.”
“Great.” Charlie immediately said, “I want to ask you to find a reason for your work and help me call Claire to the United States for a while.”
Stella asked in surprise, “Mr. Wade, don’t you want to be with Claire?
Stella asked nervously, “Mr. Wade, did the Warriors Den find you…”
Charlie said, “It’s not me, it’s my grandparents, they are all in Aurous Hill now.”
Stella hurriedly asked him, “You… have you met Grandpa An and Grandma An?”
Stella asked nervously, “Mr. Wade, do you need help? If necessary, I will definitely call all the people to Aurous Hill in the shortest possible time!”
“The more the mess, otherwise I wouldn’t think of a way to make Claire leave first.”
Then, Charlie asked her, “Miss Fei, can you find a way for me to let Claire go to the United States for a while, the sooner The better?”
“No problem!” Stella agreed without hesitation, “Don’t worry, Mr. Wade, I’ll call Claire right now!”
Charlie said, “Thank you, Miss Fei.”
After hanging up the phone, Charlie parked the car on the side of the road in Tomson’s first-class villa area and did not rush back.
Five minutes later, Stella called Charlie, and after connecting, she said to him, “Mr. Wade, I have already called Claire,”
“And I want to invite her to participate in the preparation of the commercial real estate project.”
“I told her that I temporarily overturned the previous design plan, and now the whole project has been stopped due to design problems,”
“And I don’t like the plans given by several well-known design companies, so I want to ask her to come and help put out the fire.”
Charlie hurriedly asked, “What did Claire say?”
Stella said, “Claire is a little worried because this is a large project with an investment of two billion US dollars,”
“And she feels that she is not qualified enough to advise such a large project, but I told her that when designing this kind of thing,”
“Sometimes I just look at the inspiration at that moment. I told her that I want to bring some Chinese style into the design.”
“Designers in the United States have a very superficial grasp of Chinese elements. I also said Now the whole project is at a standstill,”
“And the daily losses are astronomical, so I hope she can come and help me, she replied to me that she is willing to help, but she must discuss it with you first.”
Charlie let go of the burden on his heart, “Then I’ll go back now.”
Stella quickly asked him, “Mr. Wade, is there really nothing that needs my help?”
Charlie smiled slightly and said, “You can help me take Claire away. It is a great favor.”
Stella said helplessly, “Okay then…Mr. Wade, if you need my help, just say it!”
“Okay.”
…
After a while, Charlie drove back home.
As soon as he entered the door, Claire greeted him quickly, and said to him with some embarrassment, “Husband… I have something I want to discuss with you…”
Charlie pretended to be curious and asked, “What’s the matter?”
Claire then said, “The thing is, Stella just called me and said that she needs my help with some design matters. I think she seems to be in a hurry, so I want to discuss it with you…”
Charlie nodded, and seriously said: “You are good friends, since she needs your help, then you go to put out the fire for her.”
Claire quickly asked, “Honey, can you go with me?”
“This…” Charlie Suddenly was a little embarrassed, and said, “I may not be able to go to the United States recently,”
“Because there are a few clients who are waiting for me to help with Feng Shui. You also know that the two of us went to the United States for a long time last time.”
“Many domestic clients are backlogged, some of them I’ve already agreed to show them at home in the past few days.”
Claire said with a disappointed expression, “But when I think about going so far to the United States, I still feel a little bit reluctant to part with you… …”
Charlie touched her face, and said with a smile, “You are out for work, so you can’t take your husband with you all the time.”
“Others will laugh at you, just like I don’t take my wife when I go out to show others Feng Shui.”
Then, Charlie said again, “Besides, you and Miss Fei are good friends, if you go by yourself,”
“I guess she will probably invite you to live with her, it is good to work together during the day and talk with each other at night?”
Although Claire has a weak personality, she has always been committed to being a strong woman at work.
What Charlie said just now also touched her heart.
When a woman goes out to work, how can she carry her husband by her side as a foil? That will not only make you look useless but also make your husband look useless.
In addition, Charlie’s last sentence was also on point.
Claire and Stella are good friends, and the relationship between good friends cannot involve her husband all the time, otherwise, Stella will definitely find it strange.
Thinking of this, she had no choice but to nod her head, and said to Charlie apologetically,
“Husband, if this is the case, then I can only go by myself. During the time I am not in Aurous Hill, you have to take good care of yourself. Help me take care of my parents.”
“Don’t worry.” Charlie asked with a smile, “By the way, wife, haven’t you given Miss Fei a clear reply?”
Claire nodded, “I told her, I need to discuss it with you before replying to her.”
Charlie smiled and said, “Then you can call her directly now and tell her that it’s all right. You can go to the United States.”
Claire hummed, and said, “Then I will call her back now.”
Then, she took out her mobile phone and called Stella.
On the other end of the phone, Stella asked her impatiently, “Claire, have you told Mr. Wade?”
Claire said, “I have discussed this with Charlie, and I will leave the family affairs to him. I will come to the United States as soon as possible. See you.”
“Great!” Stella said immediately, “I’ll have someone dispatch a long-range business jet to Aurous Hill, and try to arrive in Aurous Hill before dawn tomorrow,”
“So that you can leave for the airport early in the morning!
Claire asked in surprise, “That fast?”
“Yeah!” Stella said helplessly, “I’ll tell you the truth, it’s really urgent to come out now. My project has been shut down for one day, and the amount of loss is tens of millions of dollars. If it continues, I will have no face to talk to the shareholders…”
Stella temporarily stopped the project, and the daily loss is indeed calculated in tens of millions of dollars, but the real big loss is not here.
The real big loss is that she must abolish all the previous design plans, and the Related preparations, the direct loss in this area is more than 100 million US dollars.
But to the Fei family, this amount of money is nothing at all. In Stella’s eyes, let alone 100 million US dollars, as long as Charlie asks, what if it is 100 billion US dollars?
Therefore, this loss is not only irrelevant to her, but she is willing to pay.
When Claire heard this, she naturally knew that she couldn’t waste any more time, so she said without hesitation,
“Then I’ll go back and pack my things in a while, and I’ll go to the airport early tomorrow morning.”
Then, she remembered something, and said quickly, “By the way, Stella, you don’t need to bother to deploy any business jet,”
“I’ll check the ticket, if there’s a flight tomorrow morning, I’ll buy the ticket and fly there.”
Stella said, “Don’t look at Claire, I just already have seen that there is no direct flight from Aurous Hill to New York.”
“If you go to another city to transfer, you will arrive at least the day after tomorrow, so you should pack your luggage and let Mr. Wade take you to the airport tomorrow morning. I’ll arrange the rest.”
“Okay…” Claire’s intention was not to make Stella spend too much money, because she knew that the cost of flying to the United States by a business jet would cost at least millions.
But when Stella said that there was no time at all, combined with the loss of one day, it might exceed ten million dollars, Claire no longer refused.
Stella reminded again at this time, “By the way, Claire, don’t bring too much luggage.”
“I have everything you need for life or work, and after you come, you will live in my house and I live in one room,”
“And if there is anything lacking, the things I have here can be used directly, so you can pack lightly this time, the simpler the better.”
“Okay…”
Because Stella described her situation in a hurry, Claire didn’t dare to delay at all, hung up the phone, returned to the room, and then began to pack her luggage.
Although Stella had already said on the phone that she should pack as lightly as possible, she still packed the necessary personal belongings as much as possible,
So as not to cause trouble for Stella when she goes to the United States.
Stella also quickly coordinated the plane. A business jet of Fei’s family located in Hong Kong had already taken off late at night and headed for Aurous Hill,
And it could land in Aurous Hill in the early morning. It only waits for Claire to arrive before taking off for New York.
Because Stella has already prepared the background for firefighting, Claire also feels that time is tight,
And plans to leave for the airport immediately at six o’clock tomorrow morning.
There will be no traffic jams in Aurous Hill at six o’clock, and the airport can be reached in half an hour.
If the process is fast, she may be able to board the plane and take off at seven o’clock.
Thinking of going to the United States thousands of miles away, although Claire was very reluctant to give up on Charlie,
She had no other choice. After all, Stella had helped her a lot, and she had always wanted to find an opportunity to pay back this favor.
At this time, Charlie finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the plan to dismiss Claire was considered to be accomplished.
After the husband and wife packed their suitcases together, Charlie suddenly remembered something and asked Claire,
“Honey, do you want to tell your parents about your trip?”
Claire After thinking about it, shook her head and said, “Let’s forget it. If I tell Mother that I’m going to the United States again,”
“Maybe she will make a fuss to go with me. I’m not going on vacation in the United States.”
“How can I take her with me? So you will take me to the airport tomorrow morning, and then tell her after I get on the plane,”
“And then I will say that going to the United States is a temporary decision tonight,”
“Because I left early and in a hurry, so I didn’t tell her, even if she wants to go then she won’t have a chance.”
Charlie nodded, he was also worried that Elaine would follow her like a dog’s plaster,
In case she caused Claire some trouble when they arrived in the United States, then Claire will not be able to solve it.
…
This night, Charlie lay on the bed without sleep.
Although he knew that his enemy was at hand, he didn’t panic in the slightest.
He even vaguely looked forward to the earl who would come in the next break.
Since he obtained the “Nine Profound Heavenly Scriptures”, he has never met face-to-face with a second person who has mastered spiritual energy.
The last time the first earl was eradicated, he also commanded remotely in Aurous Hill and killed him with close-in artillery in Cyprus.
This time, he knew very well that he was bound to face-to-face a fierce battle with a certain earl from the Warriors Den.
Now that he had no worries about the future, deep down in his heart, he had some expectations for this fierce battle.
The previous enemies were all too weak in comparison.
This time is the best chance to test his own strength.
Although Maria said that he was in danger, in Charlie’s mind, he had a certain chance of winning this fierce battle.
This was mainly because he knew that he hadn’t been exposed yet, and the enemy would probably shake him and let Ervin lay down the “bells”.
In this way, even if the enemy is in the open and him in the dark, naturally there is a better chance of winning!
The next day.
Charlie and Claire got up at dawn.
Taking advantage of Jacob and Elaine not waking up, they got ready at six o’clock and drove to the airport.
This time, it was Charlie and Claire’s first time traveling alone in the years of their marriage.
Although both of them felt reluctance in their hearts, they both knew that they had no choice but to leave this time.
Charlie wanted to ensure Claire’s safety, and sent her to Stella, who would definitely take good care of her;
and Claire felt that she had to help Stella solve her urgent needs,
So she could only temporarily separate from her husband for a period of time.
At the airport, Claire’s eyes were red, she hugged Charlie gently, and muttered,
“Husband, I don’t know how long it will take me in the United States this time, but it will be hard for you at home…”
Charlie stroked her On the back, he comforted her, “With your husband here, don’t worry, I will take care of your parents.”
Claire exhorted, “The main thing is to take care of yourself, don’t always think about going to help people with Feng Shui.”
“Okay, okay.” Charlie smiled slightly, and said softly, “You too, when you arrive in New York,”
“Don’t always think about work, pay attention to the balance between work and rest.”
Claire quietly wiped away tears, and reluctantly said, “My husband, then I’ll go in…”
“Okay!” Charlie nodded, and said with a smile, “Inform me as soon as you land.”
“Okay!”
Charlie watched Claire enter the security check, After she completed the security check and left the security check channel, she turned around and left.
It was only half past six at this time, Charlie did not leave in a hurry but came to the arrival hall of the airport.
Because it was too early, there were very few people waiting here to pick up the plane,
And Charlie saw one of the men holding the talisman at the exit.
Charlie was a little relieved. From the current point of view, the things arranged by Ervin are very reliable.
Charlie remained calm, and silently came to the big screen at the airport and stopped to watch.
The earliest flight from Aurous Hill will take off ten minutes later, while the earliest inbound flight will not land until eight o’clock.
In the list of incoming flights, most of the departures are from major cities in China, and a few are from other overseas cities.
Charlie doesn’t know whether his enemy will arrive by plane, or where his enemy will come from, but he knows one thing,
That is, from now on, he will be stationed in Aurous Hill, and he will no longer have any worries!
He clenched his fists and swore in his heart, “No matter who it is, if he wants to continue attacking my grandparents in this city where my parents were brutally killed 20 years ago,”
“I, Charlie, will fight to the death and fight with my life!”
He took another look at the incoming flight at the airport with firm eyes, turned around, and strode away!
…
At this time, Eastcliff.
It was also 6:30 in the morning, and Eastcliff International Airport was much busier than Aurous Hill.
Due to the overcrowding of flights, Eastcliff’s outbound flights began to depart one after another at 6:10 in the morning.
Jermo, who was wearing a long gown, walked into the domestic departure hall of Eastcliff Airport, overseas Chinese from Argentina.
Under the pressure of the lord, he bought the earliest flight to Aurous Hill today.
The plane took off at eight o’clock and the flight was expected to take one hour and forty minutes.
After completing the check-in procedures, Jermo closed his eyes and rested in the first-class lounge, waiting for boarding.
However, his heart that has been beating for one hundred and fifty-six years,
For some reason, always stalls frequently for no reason at this time, sometimes suddenly too fast, sometimes suddenly too slow, like a roller coaster with lingering fear.
Jermo knew that this abnormal behavior was due to his nervousness.
Although he hasn’t been really nervous for many years, he still clearly remembers that he used to be like this whenever he was nervous, and it was a habit formed from childhood to youth.
At this moment, he couldn’t help recalling his long life journey.
In his childhood, he lived in a tragic era of losing power and humiliating the country.
There was not enough food, no warm clothes, wolves everywhere, and tigers and leopards around.
As for himself, he couldn’t count how many times he had struggled from the brink of death.
He only remembered that whenever the critical moment of life and death came, his heart would go up and down like before, with pain and palpitations.
At that time, he entered Changyun Temple and became a Taoist priest just to avoid the flames of war, to eat well, and to survive.
At that time, he learned Taoism in order to survive and not starve to death,
But after he entered the Taoist school, he realized that what Taoism pursues is not just to live, but to live forever.
After decades of cultivating the Tao, although he touched the door of longevity,
He still couldn’t get the point. Then he finally left his hometown at a rare age to find the real way of longevity.
Ever since he mastered the aura, for so many years, Jermo has never felt the same sense of tension as before.
Until today, after more than a hundred years, he once again felt the kind of anxiety between life and death.
He couldn’t help thinking in his heart, “Is it possible that there will be a catastrophe when I go to Aurous Hill this time?”
Thinking of this, he quickly shook his head, and comforted himself in his heart,
“It shouldn’t be! How can there be a giant that can hurt me in Aurous Hill?”
“Twenty years ago, Changying Wade and Margaret An, who lived in seclusion here, were vulnerable to me! This time, I wipe out An’s family in Aurous Hill, and absolutely no one can hurt me!”
Speaking of this, the corners of his mouth turned up into a cruel and playful arc, and he sneered in his heart,
“There is also the only son of Margaret and Changying, who escape by chance twenty years ago.”
“This time, I will send him and his grandparents’ family to meet the short-lived parents!”
At this moment, the service staff in the first-class lounge came to him and said respectfully,
“Mr. Xu, Your flight to Aurous Hill has already started boarding, please go to the boarding gate 36 in time.”
Jermo opened his eyes and smiled slightly, “Okay, thank you.”
After speaking, he stood up and went to gate 36 boarding gate.
Forty minutes later, Jermo’s plane took off on the runway of Eastcliff Airport, turned half a circle in the air, and flew all the way south.
ten o’clock in the morning.
The plane landed at Aurous Hill Airport ten minutes early.
As the cabin music played, Jermo, who had closed his eyes all the way, opened his eyes. He looked out the window and felt that his blood was gradually boiling hot.
He knew it was a desire to kill.
Because all actions require the approval of the Lord, he does not have many opportunities to kill.
The last time he did it was twenty years ago, and this time, he wants to destroy the whole family in Aurous Hill.
Can’t help but sigh in his heart, he really has some fate with Aurous Hill, but the bloody smell of this fate is a bit stronger.
When the plane stopped at the corridor bridge, Jermo was the first to step out of the cabin.
He walked through the corridor, through the luggage area, and walked into the arrival hall of the airport.
He knows the location of the An family, but he is not going to attack the An family immediately, because the lord has given him two tasks.
In addition to destroying the An family, he has to plan the hiding place after the attack,
Because he will be in the dark. Waiting for the sons of Margaret and Changying to appear.
Therefore, the first thing right now is to find a place to stay.
Just when he was about to take a taxi to the city, he suddenly noticed something unusual!
Immediately, he turned his head and fixed his eyes on a middle-aged man who was holding a sign to meet people diagonally behind him.
He didn’t look at what was written on the huge sign, all his eyes were focused on the right thumb of the middle-aged man.
In an instant, his pupils suddenly shrank!
If he described his control of aura as another kind of vision, then this man’s right thumb is the only light in the dark world he can see!
Although many religions have different worldviews, they all mention a concept invariably, which is the age of the end of the Dharma.
In layman’s terms, these religions all believe that the continuous development of human beings has gradually reduced the interaction between human beings and nature,
The heaven and the earth, and the universe, thus making the distance between human beings and gods farther and farther.
According to Taoism, heaven and the earth were originally full of aura. As long as they mastered the method of absorbing and transforming the aura, human beings could ascend to immortality.
But now, the aura in nature is almost exhausted, and human beings have lost the possibility of ascending to immortality. So this is the Dharma-ending era in their eyes.
Regardless of whether this statement is true or not, for those who have mastered spiritual energy at this stage,
Their personal experience is that there is no spiritual energy in nature, and the only way to obtain spiritual energy is through pills or other special items that contain spiritual energy.
Jermo relied on the elixir given by the Lord to gradually master the aura.
For so many years, the way for him to obtain the aura was not only the elixir given by the Lord but also the Lord who set up a special array of spiritual energy inside the base of the Warriors Den.
When the formation is in operation, it will continuously produce an aura. Although the aura produced is not much, it is still considerable over the years.
In the past few years, the four earls in the Warriors Den were also fortunate enough to have the opportunity to retreat and practice in the formation,
But most of the time the formation was dedicated to serving the Lord alone.
It was also under such circumstances that the four Earls of the Warriors Den were extremely sensitive to the traces of the surrounding spiritual energy.
Like a hungry mouse, it is extremely sensitive to the taste of food.
In Jermo’s life, there is only one magical weapon that belongs to him, and that is a wooden sword bestowed on him by the Lord. In that wooden sword, there is an attacking formation.
Other than that, it is worthless.
So, when he realized that the man actually had a magic weapon in his hand, his heart still jumped into his throat excitedly!
So, he stopped his figure and quietly observed the other party.
At this time, Louis didn’t realize that an old man was staring at him not far away.
He is full of energy now, because as long as he holds a sign and guards the airport for a day,
He can earn three thousand yuan for his hard work, which is much more than his income from setting up a stall in the antique street.
He was just carrying Larson Chen’s name card. He didn’t know who Larson was,
And he didn’t even want Larson to come over too early. In the next four months of this year, he will be able to rest at home.
Jermo observed Louis for a while and came to the conclusion that this person is not proficient in the aura.
Well, his brows and expressions are full of the real street spirit of a small citizen.
A person who is proficient in spiritual energy can never have this kind of low-level street atmosphere.
Therefore, Jermo guessed that this person should not know that the talisman in his own hand is actually a magic weapon!
Thinking of this, he came up with the idea of pulling his fingers.
So, he pretended to look left and right and came to Louis, and then asked him, “Brother, please tell me, if I want to go to the city center, how should I get there?”
Louis looked back at him, seeing he was an inconspicuous old man, so he said indifferently, “Is there any need to ask? Taxi, subway, airport bus, which one doesn’t go to the city?”
He was very dissatisfied, but he didn’t mean to get angry. After all, this also strengthened his judgment of Louis.
So, he smiled and said, “To tell you the truth, brother, it’s my first time in Aurous Hill,”
“I’m not familiar with the place, and I’m old, and my eyes are not very good, so I’m somewhat confused.”
As he said, he took out a hundred-yuan bill from his pocket, handed it in front of him, and said,
“This is a small token, please accept it. If it is convenient, can you tell me which means of transportation I should choose?”
Louis didn’t want to talk to the old man at first, but when he saw the other party take out a hundred-yuan bill, his attitude immediately improved.
He smiled and took the one hundred yuan from Jermo’s hand, and then said flatly,
“The subway must be the fastest, but it’s past ten o’clock, and the morning rush hour has passed.
Now it’s easy to take a taxi to the city.” Half an hour, faster than the subway, since you are not short of money, you should take a taxi.”
“Okay!” Jermo cupped his hands and said politely, “Thank you, brother!”
“You are welcome,” Louis said and directly stuffed the hundred-yuan bill into his pocket.
In his opinion, if he didn’t put the money in his pocket quickly, maybe the old guy would ask him to give it back.
At this point, Jermo pointed to the jade wrench on his right thumb, and asked curiously,
“Brother, I think your wrench is not bad. I wonder how much it is worth?”
Although it is usually cheating and abducting, but he still has some sharp eyesight, so he said casually,
“This finger is from old times. It is not too valuable, and it will not be too cheap. The market price should be about ten thousand.”
Jermo didn’t have much research on antiques, so he asked him curiously, “What does that mean?”
Louis said, “It is the middle number of ten thousand.”
“Ouch.” Jermo said with a smile, “Seeing how easy you say, little brother, you must be in the antique business?”
“Yes.”
Louis didn’t hide it, and said casually, “I’m in the antique business, I have been working for more than ten or twenty years.”
Jermo asked curiously, “Brother since you are an antique maker, why did you come to this airport to pick up people?”
Louis frowned, he looked Jermo up and down, and said, “Old man, you have a lot of questions.”
“Didn’t you want to know how to get to the urban area as quickly as possible? Then you should be in a hurry.”
Jermo thumped in his heart, saying that he seemed to be talking too much, which aroused the other party’s vigilance.
So he quickly said with an apologetic face, “Oh, I’m so sorry.”
“As this person gets old, he talks a lot. He wants to chat with everyone. Don’t mind.”
What Jermo didn’t know was that Louis said this to remind him that if he still wants to ask other questions, he should take out some more money.
The one hundred yuan quota just now has already been used up.
Therefore, Louis smiled, and said meaningfully, “Old man, it doesn’t matter if you talk a little more, the key is to see who you talk to and how you talk.”
As he said, he deliberately used his thumb and index finger wearing a jade wrench, making a motion of counting money.
Jermo came back to his senses, and cursed in his heart, “I’m so blind,”
“I think highly of you! If that’s the case, I don’t have to go around with you, I’ll just cut to the chase!”
Immediately, he took another bag from his pocket. He took out a few hundred-yuan bills and handed them to Louis, and said with a smile,
“To tell you the truth, I am also very interested in antiques. When I saw the finger wrench in your hand,”
“I felt that it was very eye-catching. I like it very much. I don’t know brother, can you give up your love? We can talk about money issues!”
Seeing that the money was open, Louis saw that the other party handed over several hundred yuan.
He didn’t care to look carefully at how many pieces there were, so he quickly withdrew the money,
Looked around miserably, and then said to Jermo, “Master to be honest, this finger pull is not something I can sell as soon as I say it,”
“It is my elder brother’s thing, and it is for me to wear it,”
“And it is for me to make a treasure token when I come to pick up people at the airport.”
“Treasure?”
Jermo frowned slightly.
It’s not like he hasn’t doubted why there is a magic weapon in the hands of an ordinary person.
If it was just a coincidence that this guy got it,
And he bought it from him at a slightly higher price, then he was lucky.
However, this person said that this thing was a token given to him by others,
Which made Jermo a little vigilant.
So, he deliberately asked Louis, “Brother,”
“What is the explanation for this token? Can you tell me?”
“Hehe,” Louis smiled, and said in a low voice, “My elder brother asked me to pick up Hong Kong businessmen here.”
“Hong Kong businessmen have always been big customers in our antique circle,”
“And there are some gray transactions that are not convenient to explain to outsiders,”
“Just like secret agents. It’s like conveying information, there must be a token.”
Then, Louis pointed to the signboard, and said with a firm face,
“I speculate, what Larson Chen on my signboard is a fake at all.”
“Yes, when Hong Kong businessmen come to buy cultural relics,”
“They must not use their real names, so they will probably have to rely on the token in my hand to confirm whether I am from the family!”
Louis did not lie to Jermo.
Ervin himself did not explain things clearly to them,
And deliberately concealed it and made it ambiguous, leaving them a lot of room for speculation.
Why do you say that there is no confirmation letter when the person will arrive?”
“That must be because you have to be careful and be cautious!
Besides, why do you have to wear a finger wrench from a death pit when you pick someone up?”
“That must be the key to letting the Hong Kong businessman identify the authenticity of the connector as agreed!
Besides, why would you want to wear a life-threatening wrench?
Then maybe this Ervin hooked up with the tomb robbers,
And now he is thinking of helping those people sell their stolen goods!
Louis also felt that no matter which dynasty the thing from the life pit is,
As long as it is dug up and not handed in, it is illegal.
If it is dug out and not handed in, and it is secretly traded by itself,
It will be an extra crime, Ervin is so much willing to give him and his friend three thousand labor fees a day.
This proves that he must be planning a big deal, and he doesn’t care about such a small amount of money at all!
It is precisely because of the space for these imaginations that Louis firmly believes,
That his judgment must be correct, and he has definitely grasped Ervin’s veins!
Jermo was also a little tangled at this time.
On the one hand, he felt that this thing might be fraudulent,
And on the other hand, after hearing what Louis just said,
He also felt that this fcuking gang was a gang that provided one-stop services for tomb robbery,
Processing and selling stolen goods.
Thinking of this, he deliberately asked tentatively,
“Brother, do you dare to ask, is your big brother a professional antique maker?”
“Yes!” Louis said without thinking, “He has been in the antique business for twenty or thirty years,”
“Definitely no stealing and cheating,”
“He is proficient in all kinds of antique calligraphy and painting!”
Jermo nodded, took out a few hundred yuan bills, and handed them over,
And said with a smile, “Brother, can you introduce me to your elder brother? I really want to get to know him.”
Louis glanced at the old man, seeing that the old man was very happy to pay, so he had a plan in his heart.
So, he deliberately coughed twice, and said seriously,
“Old man, you also know that our industry has its own rules.”
“I don’t know who you are, and I definitely can’t take it from my elder brother casually!”
“In case you are undercover, if we are trapped, won’t I be finished in this life?”
Jermo hurriedly said, “Oh brother, you really misunderstood me!”
“How could I be something like that, to tell you the truth,”
“I am an overseas Chinese who has returned from overseas,”
“And they have just returned to China for a few days.”
As he said that, he quickly took out his passport and handed it to Louis,
And said seriously, “Look, brother, I have an Argentine passport,”
“And the time for entering the country is already on it.”
Louis himself was making up nonsense, so he didn’t think that the old man in front of him would be an undercover agent sent by the police.
The reason for saying this is nothing more than to increase the difficulty and threshold of this matter,
So as to come to this old man to ask for more money.
So, he said with a serious face, “Old man, I am also the master who eats and eats a lot.”
“If I throw this thing in my hand in an alley on the side of our antique street,”
“As long as you throw a thousand dollars, it will definitely be worth it.”
You can do as much as you want, and you can’t count it.”
Seeing that he didn’t believe him, Jermo hurriedly added some more money and stuffed it into him together,
And said sincerely, “Brother, let’s not talk about anything else,”
“Look at me. At my age, even a policeman should retire, how could he come to be an undercover agent?”
Then, Jermo further explained, “Brother, I really like this finger talisman in your hand,”
“So I sincerely want to buy it.”
“How about this, tell your elder brother for me and ask him to make a price,”
“As long as it is within my tolerance, I will transfer money to him on the spot!
Seeing that the other party stuffed money into his hands,
Louis deliberately evaded and said, “Oh, what are you doing, old man?”
“Aren’t you making me make a mistake?”
“Later, if my elder brother blamed me and said that I have no bottom line,”
“He will never let me work again in the future.”
As he said, he deliberately wanted to add some bait to Jermo,
So he deliberately stretched the jade finger under Jermo’s nose, and said with a mysterious face,
“Old man, I won’t say much, just smell this ring.”
“You smell the little smell in the jade slit of this finger!”
“Absolutely click on the top and I tell you! If you’re really an expert,”
“You’ll know what’s going on as soon as you smell it!”
Jermo put his nose up suspiciously, sniffed cautiously, then frowned and asked,
“It smells of rancidity, and there is a bit of foul smell, and there is also a bit of earthy smell…”
“Yes!”
Louis gave a thumbs up and said with a face of praise,
“Master, your sense of smell still seems to be very sensitive!”
“You can smell so many flavors, I don’t need to tell you what the origin of this thing is, right? “
Oh… I see…” Jermo nodded his head slightly.
From one fifty-six years of life experience, what this kid said is absolutely true!
So, he carefully stated his conclusion,
“Brother, these things were all dug out from the ground, right?”
Louis’s eyes widened in an instant,
And he put the pick-up sign under his arm and took the initiative to hold Jermo’s hands.
With an admiring face, he said cautiously, “Master, congratulations, you got it right!”
While collecting money, Louis praised him, and at the same time, he did not forget to compliment Jermo,
“Old man, it seems that you are also an expert! Could it be that you also used pots when you were young?”
Probably what he means is that he once pulled up a team of tomb robbers and acted as a core figure in this team.
Jermo waved his hand and said with a smile, “I only know some antiques, not tomb robbery.”
Jermo really didn’t know much about tomb robbery.
When he was young, he had heard some rumors about tomb robbery at that point he practiced Taoism all year round and had no interest in tomb robbery and cultural relics themselves, so he did not understand too much.
However, this person has lived for a long time, and the amount of information received actively or passively must be much larger than that of ordinary people.
Immediately, Jermo tentatively asked Louis, “Brother, is it convenient for you to show me the talisman in your hand?”
Louis knew that the old man wanted to see his talisman, and he said so much just now, was nothing more than trying to get his money step by step,
So he pretended to be embarrassed and said, “Master, this finger ring was given to me by my elder brother as a token, as a gift to me, and you know the general reason for it.”
“I’m a little sensitive and I can’t show it to you, so I won’t say it so thoroughly, I hope you can understand.”
Jermo didn’t know what he meant.
It just so happens that for safety reasons, he likes to use cash everywhere, so he has plenty of cash in his pocket,”
“So this time he simply took out two hundred-dollar bills from his robe, handed them to him, and said seriously, “Brother, Let me tell you straight when I returned to China this time,”
“I first went to the capital and then to Aurous Hill, in order to find my favorite antiques in these two ancient capitals.”
“I won’t make it difficult for you, let me take a look, if it’s really good,”
“I’ll give you a thousand dollars, and you can help me set up a line with your elder brother, and I’ll talk to him about the specific business.”
Unexpectedly, Louis would have thought that the old man would be so forthright, not to mention giving money a few times, but this time he simply took out the dollars.
Seeing him open-eyed, he hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said,
“Success! Since you like this talisman so much, I’ll take it off and show you!”
Then, he took off the jade talisman and handed it to Jermo’s hands.
Jermo was ecstatic, and nervously took the jade talisman with both hands, for fear that it would accidentally fall to the ground and fall.
After taking the jade finger, he immediately realized that this kind of thing is indeed an antique, and it is a thing from the middle of the Warriors Den.
After all, Jermo himself was born in the Warriors Den, so he still has a certain ability to discern such things.
The thing was a real antique, and combined with the faint smell of blood and rot, he immediately concluded that the thing should have just been dug out of the ground.
Maybe it was kept with the corpse before it was unearthed.
So, he couldn’t wait to pour some spiritual energy into it, wanting to check it out and see what the mystery of this thing is.
As soon as the aura entered the finger, Jermo immediately felt that there was a formation slowly moving inside the finger.
He was startled and thought to himself, “This formation has been working all the time. I don’t know what it does?”
For Jermo, although he has mastered spiritual energy, doesn’t know much about magic tools and formations.
Although he has a wooden sword, and there are attack formations in the wooden sword, but he can only use it, but he can’t refine it.
Even, he didn’t understand the mystery of the formation, nor did he understand the basic principles and logic of the formation.
Therefore, when he saw the formation that Charlie had left inside, he couldn’t understand for a while what the use of this formation was.
In fact, this formation is a passive defense formation recorded in the “Nine Profound Heavenly Scriptures”.
Once the person wearing the magic weapon is attacked, the formation will be activated immediately, using the energy contained in itself to defend the master against the attack.
The principle of the strength and effect of the formation is like a simple arithmetic problem.
If the attack received is less than the strength of the formation itself, then the owner will be unscathed; it will do its best to resist this round of attacks for the master, and the master will bear the part that cannot be resisted.
However, Jermo had never seen this kind of formation, so he couldn’t figure out what the use of this jade talisman finger was.
Thinking of this, he couldn’t help scolding the Lord inwardly, “That old fox never told us something deeper, so that I don’t even know what it is for when I see a magic weapon. My eyes are darkened,”
“I really want to know what effect it has, I am afraid I have to go back and ask that old fox for advice… But what if it is really a good thing, and the old fox won’t give it back to me if it is taken away?”
After thinking to this point, Jermo hated teeth itching.
Before he could fully comprehend the mysteries in the finger pull, Louis leaned forward and said, “Old man, have you read it enough? Give it back to me!”
Jermo was slightly taken aback, hesitating in his heart “For cultivators like me, magical artifacts are the most important thing. Even the Lord is still thinking about the mysterious ring in Maria’s hand,
Which shows the importance of this magical artifact to ascetics. It’s the first time I encounter a real magic weapon outside, so I can’t let it go even if I die!”
Immediately afterward, Jermo cursed in his heart, “But should I just take this magic weapon away, or return it to this guy first, and then Continue to talk to him? It’s easy to snatch it away, and even this kid can’t stop me, but there are so many people, if the other party calls the police,”
“I will be unable to move an inch in Aurous Hill, not to mention, what if his big brother still has other magic weapons, am I just beating the grass to scare the snake, and in the struggle for a small one lose the big one?”
Moreover, when they talked about this, Jermo sorted out the logic of the whole thing in his mind.
He speculated in his heart, “The guy in front of me who is open to money should be the horse boy of a tomb robbery gang in Aurous Hill. These people must have just dug an ancient tomb recently and got this finger ring and other cultural relics and antiques.”
“Now they must be looking for a strong buyer everywhere, otherwise they wouldn’t let this kid come here holding a sign and waiting to meet with the Hong Kong businessman…”
“Because the Hong Kong business hasn’t received it yet, if I can get his goods online, should be able to see all the harvest of their tomb robbery first, if there are really many magic weapons, wouldn’t it be a big profit?!”
Thinking of this, he looked at Louis and asked very seriously “Brother, how much do you sell this finger for? Tell me the real price. If it’s suitable, I’ll buy this finger!”
“You want to buy it?”
Jermo nodded, “Yes, I want to buy it, please give me a price for your hard work!”
Louis immediately thought of Ervin’s previous explanation when he heard Jermo ask for the price.
No matter who wants to buy this finger, they have to ask for a sky-high price that is 100 times higher than the market price.
Louis didn’t understand why Ervin did this, but after all, he was taking people’s money and doing things for others, so he definitely had to follow the routine. After all, he was just here to pick up people for Ervin.
So, he thought about it for a while, this jade ring finger is worth at most ten thousand, a hundred times the price, which is in the range of one million.
Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth, stretched out three fingers, and said to Jermo, “I guess this thing will cost at least three million!
“Three million?” Jermo frowned slightly. Although he practiced in seclusion all year round and didn’t often go out to do errands, he was still very clear about the concept of three million. A little too dark.
But fortunately, the funds for Warriors Den are sufficient, not to mention a few million, even if it is a few hundred million, it is nothing to Jermo.
So, he asked Louis, “If I want, can we trade now?”
So, he said, “If you really want to buy it, you have to go and talk to my elder brother. I can’t make up my mind about the specific situation.”
Then, he asked Jermo, “Master, the price of three million is just a preliminary price. Quotation, and only the lowest price, no upper limit, if you can accept it, I will call my elder brother to ask for instructions,”
“If not, let’s not waste each other’s time.”
Jermo nodded lightly, and did with a gesture of invitation, he said, “Three million, I can accept it.”
Louis was shocked and speechless, but he still said to Jermo very cautiously, “Old man, return the ring to me first, and I will call my elder brother.”
Jermo could only return the finger with reluctance.
Louis took back his finger, walked a little further, and made sure that Jermo couldn’t hear him, so he took out his mobile phone and called Ervin.
As soon as the call was made, Louis immediately lowered his voice and said, “Brother Ervin, someone wants to buy the finger talisman you gave me.”
Ervin asked, “How much did you ask him?”
Louis lowered his voice and said in a low voice, “The minimum offer to him was three million, and he…he said he could accept it…”
Ervin snorted and said, “If he can accept it, let him come to Antique Street to talk to me face to face.”
“Okay!” “Louis readily agreed, and then asked again, “Brother Ervin, I have spent a lot of time talking with this old man. If the deal is really three million, you have to give me credit for it!”
“Don’t worry.” Ervin said without hesitation, “No matter how much money is sold, I will give you 10% of the reward!”
“Really?” Louis’s excited heart almost jumped out, one-tenth of three million, this is three hundred thousand! He can’t earn so much after working hard for a year…
Ervin said with a smile at this time “When have I lied to you? If you can still introduce big customers and sell other things from me, then I will give you another five points!”
Louis was ecstatic in his heart, and quickly said, “Okay Ervin brother, with your words, I will definitely fool them, oh no, I will introduce them well!”
Ervin reminded, “Don’t patronize talking about customers, pay attention to the airport, the big customers from Hong Kong may come at any time, and that is the real big money maker!”
“Don’t worry, Brother!”
Louis said excitedly,” I will definitely not lose the chain!”
After hanging up the phone, Louis walked back excitedly, but he didn’t know that Jermo listened to all these conversations.
From the conversation between him and Ervin, Jermo didn’t hear any flaws. Instead, he strengthened his previous judgment, and also firmly believed that the Ervin brother was talking about must have other good things in his hand. , maybe there are other magic weapons.
Thinking of this, he was also very excited. To him, being able to get a magic weapon is as important as a martial artist who suddenly gets a complete mental method or a football player who wins the World Cup once.
It is almost a career. It is one of the highest expectations of his life and this time, he may be able to get more than one, this luck is simply bursting!
At this time, Louis returned to Jermo, smiled mysteriously, and asked, “Old man, do you want to see my elder brother?”
Jermo cupped his hands and said, “That’s what I want!”
“My eldest brother has never met strangers, I just said that I would introduce you to meet him, and he scolded me, thinking that I dare to talk to anyone…”
