Book 1: Chapter 90

I got in the Jinbei. Uncle Two had several warehouses in Hangzhou: one at Genshanmen, one at Xixi, and one at Banshan. On the surface, these large warehouses were part of Uncle Two's stone business. They were full of low-cost jade, which included Kunlun jade, Russian jade, and Qinghai stones. When they were at their lowest value back then, they were brought in by the wagonload. Now they were worth some money, but the access wasnt very good so they just stayed there.This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com

As a matter of fact, these warehouses had a lot to offer. The stones were just a cover-up.

Because the warehouses were very large, all of Uncle Twos various sundries were also piled up inside. I didn't bother calling him to get permission since I was afraid he'd be too sensitive about it. I would just look through the warehouses by myself. All the gatekeepers knew me anyways.

When I arrived at the warehouse in Xixi, I saw a lot of equipment outside that hadnt been sorted and put into storage yet. It was everything Uncle Two had brought to Pingtan at that time, so I knew I had the right place.

The sky outside was very dark as I walked into the huge warehouse. The fluorescent lights were on, revealing that everything inside was tightly wrapped in white, non-woven fabric. The large and small goods all neatly stacked together made my scalp tingle.

I also noticed that there were ink lines under all the stones. I didnt know whether it was to ward off evil spirits or to make it easier to stack the goods more neatly.

I cut the wire wrapped around it and opened the bag to reveal the leather figurine woman inside. I fell over in shock and crawled back a few steps before stopping myself.

The leather figurine woman's face had become extremely sinister at some point. I usually wouldnt be scared by something that was illuminated by light, but this face was just too frightening. The eyebrows and eyes made the whole face almost appear distorted like it was smiling, but the lower part of its face was sinister like a ghost.

It didnt even seem close to the expression I saw in the tomb before.

This expression appeared to be a result of shrinking, but that first glance had all the hair on my body standing on end.

I really didn't want to look at her closely, but I came here for a reason. There was nothing else I could do, so I got up and turned on my flashlight to shine on her skin. The leather figurines skin was so worn through that I could see the gold threads inside. I also saw something hanging inside the leather figurine. I looked around, but didnt see any gaps. I was going to have to reach into the leather figurines mouth to get it out.
