Xiangjiang has always been a legendary place.
Whether it is politics, economy, culture, entertainment and other aspects.
From Chen Jingle’s personal perspective——
This is a coveted financial paradise.
A large amount of overseas capital has poured into Xiangjiang, choosing it as a bridge to open up the mainland market. ZBZY's impetuous side is vividly displayed under the influence of money power. Everyone dreams of getting rich suddenly in the stock market, but most people end up like Ding Xie.
It is also an endless hell for countless poor people at the bottom.
The vast majority of people cannot afford to buy a house of their own in their lifetime. It is common for a family of five or six to live in fifty square meters. A mere ninety square meters can be called a thousand-foot mansion. Even today, there are still more than 200,000 people living in subdivided houses and cage houses.
During the day, he is a well-dressed elite working in Central, and at night, he is a prodigal son and prodigal woman hanging out in Lan Kwai Fong.
Here are the film and music of Hong Kong entertainment stars that hold youth memories for generations;
There are also many clubs and young and Dangerous boys that have been running rampant for many years and serve as the background for entertainment works;
There is also a cyberpunk style, but unfortunately the Kowloon Walled City has been demolished...
Nowadays, the only products that can attract mainlanders are genuine purchasing agents.
…
As mentioned earlier, Xiangjiang is an area with relatively complete folk custom inheritance.
People here especially believe in Feng Shui metaphysics. From the wealthy circles to the people at the bottom, most of them believe in Feng Shui and numerology.
However, this industry is a mixed bag and there are too many incompetent scammers. Countless people are deceived every year.
However, the citizens are still enjoying it.
There are many folk beliefs in Xiangjiang, including Wong Tai Sin, who named the whole area after him, Mazu, the Empress brought over by the Fujian people, Emperor Wenchang, Marshal Che Gong, Tu Gong, and Hou Wang...
But if you want to say the most widespread one, it must be Guandi, no one else!
Emperor Guan Sheng is known as "Second Brother Guan" here in Xiangjiang.
Those in the mixed society worship Guan Gong, because Guan Gong represents loyalty and bravery, and you must be loyal when you come out to join the society. Those who betray the brothers in the society must have three swords and six holes, and they must be able to fight. Wu Sheng is naturally the best choice.
Those who do business worship Guan Gong, because Guan Gong is the god of martial arts and wealth, and his image is usually shown as holding "Zuo's Spring and Autumn Annals" instead of a sword;
Even the police circles worship Guan Gong, which means being loyal to their duties, punishing rape and eradicating evil, and being brave when maintaining law and order. Most of the statues of Guan Gong they worship hold a Guan Dao and wear red shoes. Therefore, undercover agents and informants are often called "wearing red shoes."
…
Luo Yiuzu opened a supermarket in Sham Shui Po.
The store is very narrow, and it usually sells cigarettes, soft drinks, etc., and also helps old neighbors order some salty magazines.
Don't underestimate the salty and wet magazines, this stuff is very profitable.
As soon as I lit three sticks of incense for Mr. Guan in the store, I heard someone walking in. I turned around and saw that it was an acquaintance.
The other party smiled and said: "Lao Luo, come and pack ice blue explosive beads. How is your business recently?"
Luo Yaozu took out a pack of cigarettes from the display cabinet and handed it over, sighing: "What else can I do? I'm half dead. If this continues, I will really drink the northwest wind. How come Master Dong has time to buy cigarettes by himself today? That little apprentice of yours Woolen cloth?"
"I went back to my hometown to visit relatives."
Dong Sheng answered nonchalantly, opened a cigarette and lit one: "I'm pretty much the same. If I don't make any money, I'll really have to drink the northwest wind."
"Isn't it?"
Luo Yaozu was surprised.
He knew that Master Dong had real abilities. He was the successor of Maoshan Dharma in the southwest. He had been in Xiangjiang for several years. He was good at casting spells to catch and fight evil spirits, and he also had five rampant gods who specialized in helping him with things.
Can such people not even have food to eat?
The first reaction was disbelief.
As a result, Dong Sheng spat and said: "Those idiots in the north are out of their minds. They suddenly came over to grab business, and charged ridiculously low fees. It was like they were doing charity. I wonder if they did it on purpose. Come and ruin the place.”
North?
Ancestor Luo Yao was stunned and asked cautiously: "A lot of people are coming?"
Dong Sheng looked a little irritated: "Anyway, there are quite a few. In just this short half month, I have encountered four or five of them. It seems like the streets are full of people who understand the law."
Luo Yaozu didn't answer. He didn't know much about this business and didn't know much about it. It's better that Ye Gong likes dragons.
Unexpectedly, Dong Sheng took the initiative and said, "Are you interested in collaborating again?"
If there is no demand, take the initiative to create demand.
Luo Yaozu was stunned again and felt a little moved.
There is no way, a penny can't help the heroic man, there are so many mouths waiting for food at home, business has been bad recently, and the yellow-faced woman is getting more nagging day by day.
"Five-five?"
After hesitating for a few seconds, he decided to agree.
Unexpectedly, Dong Sheng smiled and said, "You are making it a little difficult for me."
When he first came to Xiangjiang, he was unfamiliar with the place and made money if he let the other party make money. But now he has already established a foothold in this place. If the apprentice hadn't suddenly returned to his hometown for something, he wouldn't have needed to find Luo Yaozu. cooperate.
It turns out that this damn salty guy is so greedy and is not afraid of dying.
Luo Yaozu sneered: "Then how much do you want to give me?"
Dong Sheng raised two fingers: "Twenty percent."
Luo Yaozu couldn't help but said: "That's too little. 40%, at least 40%!"
Dong Sheng's eyes looked disdainful: "You're just thinking shit, you're just a broker, do you understand? We're just cooperating in a show, don't take yourself too seriously, if you don't do it, others will do it! For the sake of your friends, I want to help you You gave it a try and you served it, bah!"
Luo Yaozu's face looked a little ugly, but he also knew what the other party was telling the truth.
But as ordinary people, they can naturally take advantage of the cheap things.
He forced a smile: "How about 30%? Master Dong, you are a person who makes a lot of money. Unlike me, I have to support five mouths by myself. Give me a chance."
"Just 20%, do you want it if you want me to find someone else?" Dong Sheng was a little impatient.
"Hey, okay!"
Seeing this, Luo Yaozu had no choice but to agree, sighing on the surface, looking like he had suffered a big loss.
But 20% is not a small amount for him, it is extra money anyway.
Just be careful and don't mess with the wrong people.
Dong Sheng took out an amulet folded into a triangle and handed it to him, and asked: "How to do it, do you still remember?"
"Do not worry."
Luo Yaozu carefully accepted the amulet.
…
After it got almost dark, Luo Yaozu closed the store.
Call home and tell him that he will be back later if he has something to do, so there is no need to leave food for him. Then take a bus to Tsim Sha Tsui, grab a newspaper in hand, and wander the streets.
Finally he found a suitable partner.
The two girls who were traveling together were coming out of Chanel. The good-looking one looked like a second-generation rich man with a rich family. He was wearing luxury brands, had a classy manner, and had exquisite makeup.
The most important thing is that she speaks Mandarin with an accent that sounds like someone from the north.
Luo Yaozu immediately pretended to read a newspaper and walked past the other party, then stopped with a "Hey" and walked back again.
"Beautiful girl, please excuse me."
The two girls who were stopped by the poor Mandarin turned around and looked at Luo Yaozu in surprise.
Luo Yaozu looked at the good-looking one and said, "To be honest, I know a little bit about physiognomy. Pretty girl, your fortune may not be very good recently. I have a talisman here that I will give to you for free. I hope it will be useful to you."
The girl he was looking at, Song Lishan, hesitated for a moment and finally shook her head: "Thank you, but no, I don't believe this."
Luo Yaozu didn't bother, and sighed with a pity look: "Okay, if you need any help, you can come to see me at the old Luo Shiduo store on Tai Nan Street, Sham Shui Po."
After that, he walked straight away.
Behind her, Song Lishan and her best friend Liu Qiyun looked at each other, turned around to make sure he was gone, and then murmured in a low voice.
"That uncle is so strange. If he were a man, he might be beaten."
"Indeed, forget it, maybe I just want to strike up a conversation with you."
"Haha, don't be ridiculous, he is a bad old man, how can I like him?"
"..."
But they didn't know that since Luo Yaozu took out the amulet, they had been marked by something.
The yellow paper that looked like an amulet on the surface actually contained something else -
Tracking Gu.
A small, harmless insect followed the two of them back to the hotel.
…
That night, Song Lishan had a nightmare.
I dreamed that there was a scary-looking monster standing by the bed staring at me. His face was clearly visible, his eyes were glowing green, and he was salivating, as if he was going to eat her in the next second.
Song Lishan was so frightened that she struggled desperately, but she couldn't wake up.
"Shanshan? What's wrong with you? Can you hear me? Wake up!"
Song Lishan opened her eyes and saw her best friend Liu Qiyun sitting next to her, shaking her shoulders vigorously, and couldn't help crying anymore.
Liu Qiyun quickly comforted her: "Did you have a nightmare? I heard you talking all kinds of strange things in your sleep, and your expression was quite scary."
"Woo hoo, I just..."
Song Lishan told the contents of the nightmare intermittently. Liu Qiyun's scalp felt numb after hearing it, but she quickly comforted her: "It's okay, it's okay. The dreams are all fake. I'll get you a bottle of water. Drink it to calm down before going to sleep."
However, after Song Lishan fell asleep again, she dreamed of that terrifying face again, and this time it seemed to be closer to her.
She was so frightened that she woke up again.
Liu Qiyun, who was sleeping in the next bed, was no longer calm.
While comforting my best friend, I suddenly remembered something: "Do you still remember the uncle we met when we came back?"
"Want to give me the amulet?"
"Well, I remember he said that your luck has not been very good recently, and he also said that if you need help, you can go to him."
Song Lishan frowned: "What do you think?"
Liu Qiyun said: "How about we go and ask after dawn?"
Song Lishan thought about it: "Okay!"
The main reason is that this dream is too weird. It feels like a TV series. There is such a long interval in between, and the scene is still the same after falling asleep.
Song Lishan didn't dare to close her eyes for the next time. Fortunately, it was already past five o'clock, and it would be dawn after a while.
At the same time, there was a three-bedroom apartment in an apartment a few kilometers away.
Dong Sheng was sitting cross-legged on a chair. In front of him was an altar with the main tablet of the Five Gods and an incense burner. In front of the incense burner, there was also a jar.
This is the mage's altar of soldiers and horses.
Dong Sheng opened his eyes and smiled: "Well done."
Pick up an incense stick, light it, and stick it on the incense burner.
The incense burned rapidly at an abnormal speed, and the smoke formed seemed to have a terrifying-looking evil spirit having fun in it.
…
Luo Yaozu was not surprised when he saw Song Lishan and Song Lishan appear.
He smiled and accepted the apology from both of them. After listening to them talk about what happened last night, he said: "Actually, I only know a little bit of crude physiognomy. Catching tricks and exorcising evil spirits is not my specialty, but I know a friend in this field. No. If you mind, I’ll call him and ask him to come over and take a look, he lives nearby too.”
Song Lishan and Song Lishan looked at each other and naturally had no objection.
Soon, Dong Sheng appeared outside the store.
With a surprised expression: "Lao Luo, what's going on?"
Luo Yaozu gestured cooperatively to Song Lishan: "Show this beautiful girl."
Dong Sheng pretended to stare at Song Lishan for two seconds and asked, "Have you offended anyone recently?"
"What should I say?" Song Lishan suddenly became nervous.
It's hard to say who she offended. There were many people who didn't like her. Whether it's in your own circle or your parents' business.
Dong Sheng chuckled: "It seems like you have someone cast a spell on you and you don't know it yet."
"Cast a spell?" Song Lishan was doubtful.
"Did you have nightmares at night and couldn't sleep well?"
Song Lishan nodded: "Indeed."
However, her mental complexion is not very good right now, and normal people can see that.
Dong Sheng didn't expect the other party to believe his words immediately, and continued to deceive him: "That's because someone wants to use you as a sacrifice to sacrifice to the God of Deception. That person didn't know where you learned your birth date, got your hair or Prick a little substitute on your fingernail and enshrine it in front of the God of Deception. When the worship time is long enough, your soul will be eaten by the God of Deception."
Song Lishan's heart subconsciously speeded up a few beats, and she clenched her fingers tightly.
Dong Sheng chuckled: "I guess you young people who have received higher education in materialism will definitely not believe this. It doesn't matter, just think that I am telling a story. But you have a strong sense of death now. Well, use In your words, the magnetic field is very chaotic."
After speaking, he took out a compass from his pocket.
As soon as the compass was put up, the originally quiet pointer suddenly started to spin wildly.
Song Lishan was so frightened by this scene that her hair stood up, as if the evil monster was right next to her, and she subconsciously grabbed her best friend's hand tightly.
"I believe it, I believe it!"
He quickly asked: "Then what can we do to crack it?"
Liu Qiyun was also a little frightened, but she subconsciously tugged at her clothes quietly.
However, Song Lishan was obviously frightened and regarded Dong Sheng in front of her as a life-saving straw.
Dong Sheng felt proud when he saw that his plan had succeeded.
Nonsense, he has soldiers and horses with him, it's strange that the magnetic field is not chaotic.
On the surface, he smiled calmly: "It's simple, just find a substitute."
alternatives?
Song Lishan was startled: "The substitute you mentioned is..."
Dong Sheng waved his hand: "Don't worry, it's not a human. Just find a big rooster."
Just not a human being.
Song Lishan breathed a sigh of relief and asked hesitantly: "Then, the price..."
Dong Sheng's smile became even wider: "You are in the middle level of difficulty in our industry, and it's not too expensive to charge you. Let's put it together, maybe 100,000."
One hundred thousand is a lot of money for ordinary people.
However, for the second generation of rich people like Song Lishan, the price is only the price of a watch and a few bags. After thinking about it, he agreed: "Yes, but you have to promise to help me solve the problem!"
"Don't worry, our business is definitely about credibility!"
Dong Sheng grinned, turned to Luo Yaozu and said, "Lao Luo, if anyone has a big rooster, let me bring one to you. I don't want the castrated one."
Luo Yaozu was still looking forward to his two-cent dividend, and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, I'll call and ask. This kind of thing can only be found in the countryside."
…
One phone call and someone quickly delivered the cock.
Taking advantage of this time, Dong Sheng arranged the altar.
"Right here?"
Song Lishan hesitated.
But seeing the Guan Erye enshrined in the shop, I felt a little more at ease.
"Don't worry, it will be quick."
Dong Sheng waved his hand.
He put the big rooster on the altar, and he didn't know what he said in the big rooster's ear. The big rooster actually stood on it obediently, motionless.
Then he handed Song Lishan a piece of yellow paper: "Write your name, home address, date of birth, and date of birth on it."
Song Lishan quickly followed suit.
Dong Sheng prepared a bowl of rice up to the top of the bowl, lit the yellow paper on fire, buried the ashes inside the rice, covered it with a red cloth, recited a few incantations, and then opened it. The bowl of rice turned into a The piping hot rice is almost too hot to hold and is rising to the top.
Song Lishan's eyes widened immediately.
Dong Sheng put the rice in front of the big rooster, and the big rooster started pecking without hesitation. A large bowl of rice was actually eaten clean.
Dong Sheng waited for the big rooster to finish eating, then touched its smooth feathers and recited another spell. Then in front of everyone, he picked up a knife and chopped off the rooster's head.
However, the strange thing is that no blood spurted out, and the headless rooster was still standing there.
Song Lishan and Song Lishan were so frightened by the scene in front of them that they covered their mouths.
Dong Sheng threw the chopped chicken head onto the road outside. A car happened to pass by and crushed the chicken head into meat paste.
At this time, the headless rooster jumped off the altar, walked outside, walked outside the threshold, fell to the ground and made no sound again.
Dong Sheng pretended to sigh: "Okay, it's okay."
"real?"
Song Lishan came back to her senses and asked excitedly.
What happened just now really overturned her years of cognition. It went beyond the scope of sleight of hand magic. If nothing else, the big rooster was definitely alive. However, even if the head was cut off, no blood was shed.
Scary and exciting! !
Dong Sheng grinned: "Don't worry, if you still have nightmares at night, just come to Lao Luo to find me!"
Song Lishan thought so, so she took out her mobile phone and prepared to transfer money.
However, at this moment, a sudden feeling of sleepiness came over him.
Dong Sheng, Luo Yaozu and others were stunned and watched helplessly as the two girls leaned back and fell asleep while breathing.
Before they could react, the next second, the scene before their eyes changed, and they found themselves in a gloomy place with a layout similar to that of an ancient government office.
what's the situation? !
The two of them were shocked.
in reality.
"Are you still paying homage to Second Brother Guan?"
Chen Jingle stepped into the store from outside the door, glanced at the statue on the niche, and sneered: "Even if Brother Guan comes today, I can't protect you, I said so!"
With a flicker of his body, he transformed into the image of a city god, appearing in the Yinsi Yamen, looking at the two people in the hall with cold eyes.
The city god settled the case and was promoted to court!
…
Gavel slapped hard!
Dong Sheng and Luo Yaozu were shocked and finally came to their senses.
Chen Jingle's face was expressionless and his eyes were cold.
"Dong Sheng and Luo Yaozu, do you two know your guilt?"
