Soul Ferry: My master is Uncle Jiu

Chapter 50 Driving Raw Piles

刹！
  A Jeep parked in front of the store, and Zhao Li, who was still dressed in a black trench coat and leather pants, got out of the car. At this time, the car had not yet been replaced by the Ford Raptor from the second season.

I have to say that Li Zhao in the first season was really cold and handsome, not as charming as in the second season.

When he pushed the door open and walked in, he saw people gathered around the counter. When he saw Jade, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he had obviously recognized the identity of Jade Pharmacist.

When the four promiscuous women sitting over there saw Official Zhao who looked like a rich man, their eyes suddenly lit up and they winked at him.

Officials from Zhao also accept everyone who comes. They need to get to know each other first. Whether they can get in or not is another matter.

He has great respect for Cao Gong.

"found it!"

An Yan's words immediately attracted the attention of Jade Cui and Xia Dongqing, and they both leaned over.

"Found it? What did you find?"

Li Zhao was also lying in front of the counter, looking at the three people gathered together, and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Li Zhao, you're here. I just have something to ask you." An Yan raised his head and saw Li Zhao, and told him what happened to Feicui and himself at night.

"You should know about the evil spirits inside Ruian Financial Building, right?"

"Rui'an Financial Building?"

Zhao Li raised his eyebrows and looked at An Yan in surprise: "You boy is so brave. That thing is not strong among the fierce ghosts, but its difficulty is first-class."

At this time, Xia Dongqing read out the contents of the newspaper: "The Ruian Financial Building construction site is suspected to be haunted, and strange things occur frequently at the construction site."

"When you say found, do you mean this?" Jade asked doubtfully.

An Yan nodded and looked at Li Zhao: "I was almost killed by it tonight."

This evil ghost seemed to have opened a save file. He was killed and resurrected, and he was resurrected after being killed. His strength was obviously stronger than that of the evil ghost, but his mana was completely exhausted.

Fortunately, he was physically strong and managed to find a way out.

"You have also seen this news. I think you have some guesses in your mind, right?" Zhao Li said, "Tell me about it."

Jade and Xia Dongqing were also itchy and pricked up their ears.

An Yan also expressed his thoughts.

"The news said that strange things happened frequently when the foundation of the Shui On Financial Building was laid twenty years ago. However, after inviting a Feng Shui master, the construction of the building went smoothly and it was quickly completed and put into use."

"That means the problem has been solved. Is there anything surprising?" Jade was puzzled. She felt there was no problem here. "The chairman also said today that it was precisely because of the Feng Shui bureau set up by Mr. Feng Shui that Ruian Are financial companies thriving?”

An Yan added: "But why is the Bagua mirror used in the lobby on the first floor? The Bagua mirror is usually used to ward off evil spirits and ensure good luck. The land of Rui'an Financial Building is a prosperous land, so it stands to reason that it will not attract any evil spirits. "

"Unless it's to suppress something."

"Holly, give me a bottle of Budweiser." Zhao Li shook his head and asked Dongqing to take out a bottle of Budweiser from the refrigerator. Then he pointed out: "This truth is sometimes hidden in the dark." Unexpectedly."

"Zhao Li, you are the soul ferryman, you should know it." Xia Dongqing handed the Budweiser to Zhao Li, unable to understand his Riddler's face.

"No, this is An Yan's home court, I won't steal his limelight."

Zhao Li said something, then used a bottle opener skillfully to open the bottle cap, and took a sip. The cold beer was still refreshing.

Jade looked at An Yan, "Stop talking nonsense and speak quickly."

"I'm afraid you don't know it." An Yan was speechless. After a pause, he directly expressed his guess: "Driving raw piles, have you ever heard of it?"

"Driving raw piles!"

As soon as these three words came out, Xia Dongqing felt an inexplicable chill in her body. She always felt that this was not a good thing. "In ancient times, driving piles was a kind of human sacrifice used in large-scale civil engineering projects. In order to make the project proceed smoothly during construction, people in ancient times would ask people to use magic and use living people to drive piles. Make the foundation and seal living people alive into the foundation beams and columns with mud.”

Suddenly, Jade and Xia Dongqing understood and took a breath of air.

This is such a cruel thing, it makes my scalp numb just thinking about it. The living people were tied up in all kinds of ways, and they were buried alive with the fear of death.

Jade said in disbelief: "You mean, the Feng Shui masters used human sacrifice at that time, how dare they?"

"This is not the old society!"

"Hmph, then you underestimate human nature too much." An Yan sneered, remembering some news he had seen before: "This cruel and inhumane secret method of driving piles has not been discontinued, but has been passed down."

"I suspect that the evil ghost was caused by the resentment of the person who was used as a stake driver after his death. The Bagua Mirror was also used to suppress and resolve his resentment."

Zhao Li just smiled and said nothing.

Xia Dongqing looked at Officer Zhao in confusion: "Aren't you the soul ferryman? Why do you let it kill people?"

Zhao Li rolled his eyes, "I am the soul ferryman, I am not God."

"It's not as simple as you think. As for the truth, it's up to you to find it."

Hearing this, Anyan's heart suddenly trembled. Is there any problem here?
  Jade stopped talking. She looked at An Yan and let him do the brainstorming. Her head hurt from thinking about it.

"Yes, so I will find out about this matter." An Yan nodded, "Jade, then let's ask the old man to come out and talk tomorrow."

That 400,000 cannot be wasted.

What Li Zhao said was not that simple, so why?

The next day, An Yan and Jade met the old man at another office of Ruian Financial Company.

"Chairman Lin, let's get straight to the point."

"Did they use piles to lay the foundation of Ruian Financial Building? They used living people as sacrifices!"

Chairman Lin's expression froze.

Seeing this, An Yan knew that his judgment was correct. He was afraid that the old man in front of him would not tell the truth, so he said: "Chairman Lin, I hope you tell the truth. The other two masters have been scared away."

"If you don't catch Li Gui as soon as possible, let alone business, I'm afraid your life will not be saved."

"I said." Chairman Lin sighed, and then his words revealed his anger: "What happened back then was agreed upon by you and me."

"There is no coercion or coercion?"

Neither An Yan nor Jade believed it.

"I promise not, I just paid five million." Upon hearing this, Chairman Lin quickly denied: "Anyone who was familiar with this matter can testify for me, and they will be known after an investigation."

five million!
  People die for wealth, and birds die for food.

There may not be coercion, but inducement is appropriate.

You must know that five million twenty years ago is not on the same level as five million now.

"Back then, Cai Jian was terminally ill. In order to let his family have a good life after he left, he found me in the middle of the night."

"I actually gave the five million to the Cai family. I have taken great care of their family over the years."

An Yan and Jade looked at each other in disbelief. It seemed that they could only meet Cai Jian again at night.
