Hangzhou Universe’s name for me has become an honorific.
Seeing his sincere attitude, I nodded.
"I'm not interested in the ancestral treasures you mentioned. I just want an attitude from you. Since you said that, I will reluctantly help you think of a solution."
Seeing that I finally relented, Hangzhou Universe was overjoyed. He waved his hand again, and another man in black came forward with a suitcase and opened it.
This time, it wasn't money, but a copper box. It looked very exquisite, and I didn't know what was inside.
Hang Yuzhou stepped forward in person, took out a key, and solemnly opened the copper box.
Inside, there is another brocade box.
It’s so strange, what kind of treasure is this? It has three layers inside and three layers outside?
My curiosity was aroused, but Hangzhou Universe stopped at this time, as if he was deliberately trying to whet my appetite.
He looked up at me, his expression extremely serious.
"Sir, I give this treasure to you, but you must help me get rid of that evil obstacle. Now, I can only give you a look. Please don't blame me, sir."
His tone sounded like he wanted to give me the imperial seal.
I stretched out my hand to stop him: "Then you'd better not show it to me. If I can't get rid of it and I miss your baby again, that would be terrible. If a practitioner has no desires, there will be no inner demons. Just put it away. , I don’t watch anymore.”
He tried to show off to me, but I simply refused to do so.
It was as if I agreed to help him because of his baby.
He couldn't help but be stunned, gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, in this case, whether you can get rid of that evil obstacle or not, I will give this treasure to you as a thank you gift afterwards."
With that said, without waiting for my consent, he opened the brocade box directly.
In the brocade box is a piece of brocade cloth.
Hang Yuzhou waved his hand again and asked all his men to exit. Then he carefully opened the brocade cloth and exposed the contents in front of us.
I took a closer look and saw that this thing was unattractive and a bit dark. It looked like a weathered stone or rusty iron sheet, but if I looked closely, it looked like bones that had been buried in the soil for many years.
Just as I was looking at this thing, an inexplicable feeling suddenly spread quietly throughout my body.
The next moment, I seemed to see several colorful rays of light radiating from the top of this thing.
But only for a moment, it disappeared.
I don’t know if it’s my misunderstanding.
I took a deep breath, looked at Hangzhou Universe, and asked with my eyes.
His eyes remained on the dark thing, and he looked a little excited.
"Sir, this treasure is rare in the world, not to mention priceless. If it were in ancient times, I'm afraid a whole country could exchange it for it."
Good guy, what he said shocked me. I thought to myself, what kind of treasure is this? It’s not even worth a city, but it can actually be exchanged for another country?
Lao Zhangtou also opened his eyes wide and asked: "What kind of treasure is this?"
Hang Yuzhou had already closed the brocade box at this time and said to us seriously: "This is a bone, to be precise, a skull."
Head... skull?
Old Zhang was stunned, pointed at the brocade box and asked: "Whose skull belongs to Qin Shihuang?"
Hang Yuzhou shook his head and said: "No, he is greater, more famous, and more amazing than Qin Shihuang."
He didn't let us guess. He looked down at the brocade box and said word by word: "This is the skull of Sakyamuni, which is also the legendary Buddha's top relic."
Sakyamuni...
Buddha...Buddha's top relic? ? ?
Hearing these words, I was shocked and looked at the brocade box in front of me in disbelief.
Is it true that he actually has such a treasure?
But, it shouldn't be.
If there was a Buddha-top relic hidden in his house, then no demons or ghosts would dare to enter. How could that Hu Tianchou be so troubled?
Hangzhou Universe seemed to have guessed what I was thinking, and sighed and said: "This treasure has been in my family for more than 20 years. My father bought it from a farmer for 50,000 yuan."
He told us that his father was a returned overseas Chinese.
Seventy years ago, his family was a wealthy local in Nanjing. Before the fall of Nanjing in 1937, his family fled abroad to seek refuge.
It wasn't until the 1980s that he returned to China, used the capital at hand to start a business, and quickly accumulated wealth.
Hang Yuzhou's father likes to collect antiques, and there are many valuable collections at home.
One year, he found a rare treasure in Nanjing.
It was near the Zhonghua Gate. A man bought an old house. When he was renovating it, he accidentally found a stone letter in the cellar.
Shi Han means stone box. The man opened the stone letter and found a wooden box inside, wrapped in rosin.
Open the wooden box again, and there is a copper box inside.
After opening the layers, the innermost relic is the Buddha's top relic.
It is said that the last brocade box originally had a few words written on it: Buddha's top relics.
But after opening it, those words quickly disappeared.
That man had a lot of eyes and kept silent because he knew that if this kind of treasure was taken out, it would definitely be handed over to the country.
He asked privately if anyone who bought antiques would be interested in this.
As time went by, the news reached Hang Yuzhou's father.
Because the relics on the top of the Buddha are so precious, most people don't believe them and think that the person forged them to deceive others.
But Hang Yuzhou's father went to take a look and immediately decided to buy it.
The reason is that he is too rich. The other party only wanted 100,000 yuan for the Buddha's top relic. He negotiated a 50% discount and the other party agreed.
Fifty thousand yuan, in the 1980s, was a huge sum of money for most people, but in the eyes of Hang Yuzhou's father, it was nothing.
As a result, the Buddha's top relic was treasured in his home.
In the next ten years, Hang Yuzhou's father tried many ways to verify it, but no one could prove whether it was the real Buddha's crown relic.
However, some eminent monks had seen it and said that the Buddha's crown relic was so miraculous that even with their wisdom they could not penetrate it.
So Hang Yuzhou's father thought, something that even eminent monks can't understand must be true, right?
Later, Hang Yuzhou's father died of illness, and the Buddha's top relic was passed to Hang Yuzhou.
Over the years, the Buddha's crown relic has not shown any miracles in his home, and is hidden in a corner without any surprises.
He also once asked people why the Buddha's crown relics didn't work when there was trouble at home.
People told him that when Buddhism talks about predestined relationships, he must have had no predestined relationship with the Buddha's crown relic.
So this time he really had nothing to do, so he took out this treasure and wanted to transfer it to me, hoping that I could help him.
After listening to Hangzhou Universe say a lot, I don’t know whether this thing is true or false.
But one thing is for sure, when he opened the brocade box just now, I saw the colorful glow, which is absolutely true.
If it were really the Buddha's crown relic, it would be a rare treasure in the world, and he just gave it to me like this?
Should I keep it for myself or hand it over to the state?
I only hesitated for three seconds before shaking my head and rejecting him.
"Mr. Hang, I can help you, but you should keep this thing."
"Why? Are you sure you don't want such a precious thing?"
I smiled slightly and said to him: "If you have a Buddha treasure at home, you can't avoid disasters. Why do I need it? And although your thing has colorful rays of light at first, if you look closely, it is mixed and uneven, and it seems to have been infected by evil spirits." From my perspective, this is definitely not an ordinary thing, but it is not the real Buddha’s crown relic.”
As soon as I finished speaking, a man in black ran in in a panic outside.
"Mr. Hang is in trouble, your house is on fire..."
Hang Yuzhou's expression remained unchanged and he shouted: "Why panic? Just call the fire alarm."
The man in black became even more panicked and stammered.
"Yes... there is a fire in your daughter's room... the fire is very strong... it seems... uncontrollable..."
