Chapter 1368: Working in a Fantasy Antique Shop 01
[Transmitting the storyline memory of this world...Transmission successful. 】
The villain Ying Wu Shu is a half-baked Taoist priest inherited from his family. It is said that his ancestors were once very wealthy and left behind treasures comparable to those in a museum, but he is forbidden to sell his property.
Therefore, the Ying family has been guarding the treasure like misers for generations. They opened an antique shop called Lingqingdu, where they sell the treasures in a regular way and can also pawn them. In the meantime, they help ghosts and interested people solve various problems, and this tradition has been passed down to this day.
Ying Wushu, who was raised by his grandfather, inherited Lingqingdu after Grandpa Ying passed away and graduated from university the year he graduated.
The protagonist is Luo Qiu, who has been able to see ghosts and spirits since childhood. He has a very good relationship with Ying Wushu. Because of his special abilities, he also stays in Lingqingdu to help open a shop.
The story begins when Luo Qiu was out one day and rescued a man who had encountered a ghost, the protagonist Gu Cun.
Young Master Gu fell in love with Luo Qiu at first sight, but he was born with a very special physique, with strong yang energy but often encountered ghosts, and several Taoist priests could not find the reason.
After Gu Cun and Luo Qiu encountered each other by chance several times and treated each other, and then had dinner together to express their gratitude, they became a couple.
Unexpectedly, after Luo Qiu and Gu Cun fell in love, the chance of encountering danger, which was not a frequent occurrence before, increased sharply.
Suddenly, there were two more people who needed to be rescued frequently. After Ying Wushu missed several opportunities to help ordinary people because of saving them, he temporarily used the family jade pendant that contained the power to ward off evil spirits to protect Luo Qiu.
Ying Wushu no longer had to worry about his friend being killed by ghosts, so he could go on a long journey with peace of mind to escort the bronze sword that the museum needed.
Unexpectedly, after this long journey, everything changed when Ying Wushu returned.
Lingqing Ferry was broken into by uninvited guests, who looked like ghosts and monsters.
They wanted to snatch the treasure, and they also had their eyes on Gu Cun who was said to have the Xuan Yang Body. Their attitude was extremely arrogant.
Luo Qiu used the jade pendant to deal with them, but was mistakenly mistaken for the descendant of the Ying family by the group of people. Luo Qiu was afraid that they would hurt Ying Wushu, so he insisted on admitting that he was the descendant.
That group of people were Mr. Ying’s enemies, and they beat Luo Qiu so badly that his soul was shattered.
The soul is shattered and cannot become a ghost, let alone a human, and cannot be reincarnated.
Gu Cun was in extreme pain, and used his Xuan Yang physique, which could fight evil spirits, to ask evil spirits to possess him to avenge his loved ones, but he also became completely inhuman because of this.
Because Gu Cun was unable to control himself and killed two neighbors in succession, Ying Wushu finally rushed back.
Ying Wushu was heartbroken by the departure of his good friend, but he had to get rid of the evil spirit that hurt ordinary people.
Finally, Ying Wushu found a method to repair the broken soul item from the treasure book, and it took him half a year to rescue Luo Qiu.
But Ying Wushu killed Gu Cun with his own hands. Even if Luo Qiu didn't want to hate him, he couldn't do it. He continued to drift away from him and no longer had any contact with him.
His friends were gone, his lover left him, and less than fifteen years after Luo Qiu recovered his soul, he died again due to exhaustion.
In the same year when he learned of his friend's death, Ying Wushu passed Lingqingdu to his disciples and has not been heard from since.
【What a tragic story.】0731 sighed.
It seems that no one is wrong, but they are always pushed towards the dividing line of fate.
Jinchen's identity this time is the heir of a hidden family of heavenly masters, and he was driven out to gain experience.
The only interaction between him and the protagonist in the original plot was when a group of uninvited guests broke into Lingqing Ferry and he felt injustice for a moment.
If you really show up at that time, the opportunity will be gone!
As Jinchen walked towards Lingqingdu Antique Shop, he was thinking about how to stay.
The current story line is that a few months after Ying Wushu graduated, he and Luo Qiu jointly ran Lingqingdu. Luo Qiu rescued Gu Cun a few days ago, but it has not progressed to their second meeting.
At the end of the antique market, there is a long alley with only a few scattered shops. The plaque of Lingqingdu stands on the lintel. The traces of being worn down by time are clearly visible, but it still looks mysterious and full of charm.
Jinchen pushed the door open and walked in, his eyes meeting the person in front of the counter.
Ying Wushu was doing the math, moving the abacus beads with his fingertips, his tall figure leaning casually against the nanmu frame, wearing an exquisite Chinese cloud-patterned shirt, exuding a noble temperament.
When she raised her eyes, her moon-like eyes were slightly curved with a distant smile.
There is no trace of the impetuousness of a person in his twenties.
Like green mountains after the rain, and the autumn moon over the calm lake.
[Detected the villain in this world's plot, triggering the blackening value, current blackening value: 30! ]
[Task requirement: Clear the blackening value to zero and change the tragic ending of the villain. 】
"Welcome to Lingqingdu."
Ying Wushu did not stop fiddling with the abacus. He raised his eyes to look at the visitor, surprised by the man's overly sharp bones. But after only a few seconds, he lowered his eyes again.
"Pick whatever you want and pawn it in exchange."
Jinchen walked to the counter and said in a deep voice, "I'm here to apply for the job."
Ying Wushu stood up a little straighter this time, and said slowly, "Sir, we are not hiring."
Thinking that the customer had gone to the wrong place, Luo Qiu came out from under the table and kindly reminded him, "Go further in, the shop at the end of the alley is hiring a restorer."
Jinchen: "I didn't go wrong. I came to Lingqingdu to apply for a job."
Luo Qiu wiped the dust off his face, looked at Ying Wushu, and asked in a low voice: "Does he know something?"
Ying Wushu shook his head, then looked up at Jinchen, "Lingqingdu is not hiring any employees, guests are welcome to come as they please..."
A crisp sound of buckling was heard, and Ying Wushu's eyes fell on the talisman that Jinchen had put down.
“You are the Heavenly Master.”
He is a Heavenly Master who has bestowed immortal certificates, and is much more orthodox than this half-baked person.
Jin Chen nodded, "I was entrusted by my family elders, and I also have to accept the favors of my family clan."
Ying Wu Shu was silent, suddenly not knowing how to respond.
Logically he should have known it, but when my grandfather was still alive, he got drunk one day and burned the book that recorded the transactions between the various clans.
"Excuse me, sir, what clan are you from?"
"My name is Jinchen, and I'm from the south."
Ying Wushu: “Hiss…”
Jin in the south and Xuan in the north are known as the leaders of the hidden families.
Even though Jinchen dared to apply for the job, he didn't dare to accept him.
"I am going out to experience the world. If Ling Qingdu does not accept me, I am afraid I will not be able to explain to my elders at home. I hope Boss Ying will help me."
Jinchen still had no intention of giving up. His tough and sharp face softened a little and he pretended to clasp his fists.
Ying Wushu had heard from his grandfather before that the secluded families strictly abide by the etiquette of inheritance, but they are all stubborn.
I finally understood it today.
Ying Wushu was helpless, "To be honest, I just took over Lingqing Ferry not long ago, and I am still in a state of not making enough money to cover my expenses."
The implication is that he can't afford to pay the wages.
Luo Qiu nodded and said, "Yes, yes, there is nothing we can do."
Doing business is so difficult!
Jinchen pondered for a moment.
【Put away the rainbow hair and use it as a mascot. 】
【Ah? ...Oh! 】
0731 Just do as I’m told, and say goodbye to your dream hair color temporarily.
Jinchen took out a fluffy cat from the backpack he was carrying and threw it onto the counter.
"The mythical beast Pixiu brings wealth."
Ying Wushu: “…”
Luo Qiu: "...What do you think this is?"
