Chapter 95： cursed place

Early the next morning, Pei Anzhu woke up according to his usual biological clock.

She washed up as quickly as possible and went downstairs. She saw that Han's parents had already prepared breakfast, including steamed buns, soy milk and fried dough sticks, shredded pork noodles, eggs, milk and whole wheat bread.

A table full of things was placed.

"Xiaozhu is down?" Mother Han greeted with a smile, "I was just going to wake Pengzi up! He is a lazy person who likes to sleep in when he gets home. Don't mind."

“I don’t mind.” Pei Anzhu shook his head.

Han Mu enthusiastically pulled Pei Anzhu to the table and asked her to eat first:

"I don't know what you like to eat. Anyway, I made some of whatever I have at home. You can choose what you like and eat it. You're welcome."

After saying that, Mother Han took out her mobile phone and called Han Peng up like a series of life-threatening calls.

Han Peng yawned and went downstairs. After breakfast with his family, he heard the loudspeaker in the village calling for assembly.

“What is this for?” Han Peng was puzzled.

"The old fairy is about to start giving lectures." Mother Han explained, "We have to listen every day. Only the three best performers every day can get the free yellow talisman given by the old fairy. If others want it, they have to spend money. Buy it at a big price!”

Pei Anzhu and Han Peng looked at each other and couldn't help but sigh:

That liar is really good at deceiving these villagers, one after another.

Since ancient times, people have been worried about inequality rather than scarcity. People who perform well get free yellow charms, which is a stimulus to others, and everyone can't wait to listen to his brainwashing with all their strength.

No wonder these villagers are so fanatical.

I really don’t know the truth of “free is the most expensive”!

"If you have nothing to do today, you can come with us to attend the class." Mother Han said, "You young people have good memories and strong comprehension, so you will definitely perform best."

After hearing this, Pei Anzhu refused with a slight embarrassment:

“Auntie, I want Han Peng to take me around the village today to see the nearby scenery, and by the way, we can also talk about our breakup.”

“I’ve come all the way to chase him, so I have to at least speak clearly to him, right?”

When Mother Han heard this, she thought it made sense. They, as elders, could not get involved in the emotional problems of young people, so it was better to let them go out and talk about it.

“Okay, Pengzi has been running around Hualibao Mountain since he was a child. He is familiar with the area around the village. Let him take you there.” Mother Han nodded and agreed.

After dinner, Pei Anzhu saw that every household was carrying benches and heading to the square to gather.

The Han family's parents were afraid that they would not be able to grab a good seat, and they didn't even have time to collect the bowls and chopsticks, so they left in a hurry. It seemed that they were very greedy for the free yellow talisman.

Pei Anzhu and Han Peng also went out, avoiding the square, and started wandering around the village.

It is not accurate to say wandering around.

Han Peng mainly looked at the scenery, and occasionally told Pei Anzhu some interesting local things:

“Have you seen the big dead tree at the east entrance of the village?”

“When I was a child, I played hide-and-seek with a group of children in the village. I hid in a haystack at the neighbor’s house next door. No one found me. Later, I lay down in the haystack and fell asleep.”

"When I woke up, it was already dark. I crawled out and went home. Passing by the big dead tree, I saw a group of people in black clothes lining up and walking into the tree."

“After I got home, I told my parents about it. They said I saw it wrong and that I fell asleep in the haystack and had hallucinations.”

“I didn’t know there were ghosts in the world before, so I thought I was wrong, but I heard you say before that our village has special feng shui, so the things I saw when I was a child were not hallucinations, right?”

Hearing this, Pei Anzhu raised his eyebrows and said:

"It's not an hallucination, it should be the ghost that remains here. Children have pure souls and clear eyes. It's normal to occasionally see things that adults can't see."

"It's true that the dead tree you mentioned is interesting." "What's so interesting about it?" Han Peng was puzzled.

Pei Anzhu did not answer him for the time being. Instead, he walked around the entire village and even spent an hour climbing Hualibao Mountain.

After Pei Anzhu had a clear view of the terrain of the entire Hanjia Village with a radius of hundreds of miles, she said:

“Your village’s Feng Shui system has been in existence for at least three hundred years.”

"I have said before, this place should have been a battlefield three hundred years ago, with a strong blood-sinister aura, a ghostly atmosphere, and a cursed place where there was death but no life."

“But if you look at the whole village, the dead trees in the east are wood, the ancient wells in the west are water, the ancient houses in the middle are earth, the gold aura in the south is soaring, and war weapons should be buried, and there are piles of firewood in the north, making it easy to gather fire.”

“Metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, the five elements are in harmony with each other. It was in this dead place that a glimmer of life was created, and this village was created.”

Therefore, people living in this village do not think this feng shui is bad.

Han Peng was even more confused after hearing this:

“But why build this village? It’s not an easy task to create a glimmer of life from a place of death, right?”

“You have to ask those two liars.” Pei Anzhu said, “The reason why Hanjia Village exists may be their purpose of coming here.”

“What are we going to do now?” Han Peng asked.

"As you said yesterday, go test them." Pei Anzhu said, with a smile on his lips, "It's my turn to perform."

Han Peng: ...I have an ominous premonition.

Pei Anzhu returned to the square. The lecture was coming to an end. The three best performers stepped forward to receive their own yellow talismans, including the mother of the Han family.

Holding the yellow talisman as if holding a rare treasure, she walked back happily. When she saw Pei Anzhu, she said excitedly:

“Xiaozhu, do you see what I got?”

"You are really the lucky star of our family. I didn't get the yellow talisman before, but I got it as soon as you came. It's so good. I have to follow the old god's instructions and put it under the pillow quickly. It will definitely bless you. All my wishes come true.”

After saying this, Mother Han couldn’t wait to go back.

Pei Anzhu waited until most of the villagers in the square had left, then she walked towards the two men in Taoist robes, showed acting skills comparable to those of actresses in the entertainment industry, and begged:

“Old god, can you sell me a yellow talisman?”

“This talisman of mine is not easily sold. If you want it, come to the class every day. As long as you answer my questions correctly, I can give it to you for free.”

Pei Anzhu’s eyes lit up and he said excitedly:

"It's not easy to sell it, it doesn't mean it can't be sold. I'm paying 100,000 yuan, can you give me one?"

"I have heard from the folks that your talisman is very effective. If you put it under the pillow, all your wishes will come true. I came here after my boyfriend. He wants to break up with me, but I don't want to break up. I want to be with you." He got back together, so why don’t you sell me one?”

When Pei Anzhu came last night, there was so much commotion. Gossip about the Han Peng family had already spread in the village, and the two liars had heard about it.

In their eyes, Pei Anzhu has already been labeled:

A spoiled, unruly and willful young lady from the city who is willing to sacrifice herself for love and has never suffered much.

It’s just that now there is another label: being taken advantage of.

They sold this yellow talisman to the villagers for only one thousand yuan each. This was the price they set after asking about the living standards of Hanjia Village.

It is relatively expensive, but the villagers can afford it even if they grit their teeth.

But this rich lady can spend one hundred thousand yuan at a time.

One hundred thousand!

How many talismans must be sold?
