White Bone Monkey King

A few days later.

Although there are dark clouds and gloomy weather today, fortunately, the spring rain that has been falling for several days has temporarily stopped, and my body that was about to become moldy finally felt dry for a rare moment.

Jiangzhou Prefecture.

Yongle Square in the southwest corner.

The old Taoist priest, holding the goat in his hand, stood in front of a coffin shop that was deserted by passers-by, and was a little dumbfounded.

A bright black plaque was hung on the coffin floor, and a vertical crack appeared in the middle of the plaque——

Yongle Coffin Shop.

"Little brother, didn't you say you wanted to open a Wu Zang Taoist temple in Jiangzhou Prefecture? Why did you find a Mingdian coffin shop? Little brother, don't you want to tear down the Mingdian and open a Taoist temple instead?"

The old Taoist priest said and really thought about it seriously: "It's not impossible. A place like the Coffin Shop has a strong yin energy, which will affect the daily lives of living people in the world over time. If a Taoist temple is rebuilt on the old site of the Coffin Shop, this place will be suppressed. Yin energy is also a meritorious deed."

Unexpectedly, Jin An shook his head and said: "No, I want to buy this coffin shop, and then buy the house opposite the coffin shop, and imitate the layout of Wu Zang Taoist Temple and Uncle Lin's coffin shop. If Uncle Master really Returning to Jiangzhou Mansion will definitely attract the attention of my uncle."

This is called double insurance.

He tried his best to attract the attention of Master Yuyangzi.

After the old Taoist priest heard Jin An's explanation, he was slightly startled, then nodded in agreement, and praised Jin An for his thorough consideration.

The owner of the coffin shop is a young man in his early twenties. It is hard to imagine that someone would guard coffins at such a young age and deal with something as unlucky and sinister as a ghost shop.

If the Yin energy of a living person enters the body too much, bad luck will come one after another. If a man does not lift, and if a woman is cold and infertile, it is considered light. If you deal with the dead a lot, the Yang energy will be weak, and it is easy to attract unclean things.

Just like the young coffin shop owner in front of him, even ordinary people can see that his hall is darkened, that he is completely lost and in a trance, and he cannot escape the eyes of Jin An and the old Taoist priest.

When Jin An came to the door and told the purpose of his visit, he said that he had heard from someone that there was a coffin shop for sale here and he was here to buy a coffin shop. When the other party heard that someone really took over his coffin shop, his expression suddenly changed to despair. Excited, his eyes regained focus. He didn't even need to bargain with Jin An and sold them to Jin An at the lowest price. There were a lot of incense candles, paper money, seven or eight coffins and other stored goods in the coffin shop, and they were all given to Jin An for free. This is equivalent to half selling and half giving, and Jin An takes a big advantage.

But when Jin An paid the money and went to the Yamen to seal and hand over the land deed, the owner of the coffin shop showed an expression of relief, as if he had finally gotten rid of a hot potato, and it was up to him who would take advantage.

As soon as the handover was completed, the owner of the coffin shop didn't even go to the store. He wanted to leave on the spot, wishing he had never been to Yong'anfang in his life.

"Boss Liu, can I ask you something? You are so young, why don't you run other businesses, but open a coffin shop? I have no ill intentions, I am just curious that ordinary people are very taboo about coffin shops, and it is too late to hide away. How could Boss Liu think of making a living from a coffin shop at such a young age?" The Boss Liu mentioned by Jin An is the owner of the coffin shop.

It should be said that from now on he will be called the new boss of the coffin shop.

Liu Tao saw that Jin An and the old Taoist priest were both Taoist priests wearing Taoist robes. He did not dare to be disrespectful and quickly answered: "To be honest with Taoist Jin An and Taoist Chen, I don't want to take over that coffin shop. I really have no choice. The original owner of the coffin shop The boss and my father are old acquaintances, they are fellow villagers who came from the same village. Because they couldn’t pay back the money they owed us, they mortgaged the coffin shop to our family.”

"My father saw that the other party did not pay for it. Although the coffin shop is unlucky, it is still worth some money. I had no choice but to admit that I was unlucky and agreed to use the coffin shop to pay off the debt."

"After taking over the coffin shop, there must be someone to guard the shop and open it for business. Otherwise, it will remain idle and never make back the money lost. So I took over the coffin shop from my father and started running the coffin shop."

The other party absentmindedly chatted with Jin An for a few more words, then turned around and left in a hurry.

Seeing Liu Tao's back quickly disappearing into the crowd of people on the street, the old Taoist priest frowned: "Little brother, when that person was talking to us, his eyes were evasive and he didn't dare to look at the person talking. He was afraid that there was something wrong in his heart and he didn't tell us the truth. "

In fact, Jin An also saw that Liu Tao did not tell the whole truth frankly, nodded slightly and said: "The coffin shop is cold and cold, and it is a hot potato for ordinary people. In order to sell the coffin shop as soon as possible, he will definitely not follow us to be honest."

The old Taoist looked at Jin An: "As long as you know what's going on, little brother, I will follow you, little brother. Wherever you go, I will go."

Now that he has a coffin shop, it will be much easier to choose a location for the Taoist temple. Before Jin An bought the coffin shop, he had already negotiated prices with several residents across from the coffin shop and bought the house at the normal market price, so he Simply go to the local government office to report and apply for a construction concept.

And because he had a letter of introduction from the Governor of Wuzhou Prefecture and had met with the Governor of Jiangzhou Prefecture before, Jin An's application to build a Taoist temple in Jiangzhou Prefecture went smoothly, and the work efficiency was surprisingly high.

In the next few days, Jin An and the old Taoist priest were very busy. They contacted people everywhere, looking for masons and carpenters to discuss how to build a Taoist temple. It took several days of busy work to finally get all the bricks, sand, stones, masons, and carpenters that needed to be prepared. After everything was ready, an auspicious day was chosen to start construction, which also made Yongle Square lively, which had not been lively for a long time.

"Little brother, I see that the plaque on the coffin pavement is cracked. Let the carpenter help us build a new plaque." The old Taoist priest's suggestion was accepted by Jin'an.

After buying the coffin shop and starting the construction of the Taoist temple, everything went smoothly without any mistakes. However, the problem happened with the cracked plaque on the coffin shop.

The next day.

The masons and carpenters came to work early in the morning and found that the burned plaque reappeared on the door frame of the coffin shop. They were shocked and speechless.

This incident alarmed Jin An and the old Taoist priest who were temporarily staying at the inn.

"Daozhang Chen, Taoist Jin'an, you guys are here. Something happened. The plaque that was burned yesterday came back and was hung up."

"This place is a bit evil. We don't plan to take on this job. The two Taoist priests should hire someone else."

As soon as they arrived at the coffin shop, they were surrounded by masons and carpenters. Everyone complained and they were all frightened.

"Everyone should be quiet for a moment and talk slowly one by one. Uncle Zheng, tell me what's going on. I remember you took off the plaque yesterday, and it was you who put up the new plaque." Jin An was referring to. Uncle Zheng is one of the carpenters he hired this time.

But at this time, Uncle Zheng was so frightened that he couldn't even speak clearly. Finally, another carpenter answered: "Old Zheng and I took off the plaque with our own hands yesterday, and we also lit it with our own hands before work. It was burned, but when I came to start work this morning, I found that the old plaque with cracks had been hung back on the door frame, and the new plaque was missing.”

Old Taoist priest: "Is it possible that someone is playing a prank?"

The carpenter replied with a firm tone: "It can't be a prank. I'm pretty sure Lao Zheng and I burned it yesterday!"
