Chapter 182: New Chapter Begins, Seeking Ghosts and Seeing Gods!
"Twelve thousand yuan; the price can't be lower. These are all good goods; you'll definitely make a profit if you resell them."
"Heh, you think you're selling second-hand goods? This is fencing stolen goods; I'll give you five thousand at most... plus your broken car, I'll give you ten thousand. If you don't sell, forget it; go find someone else."
Fuyuan City Second-hand Trading Market.
Wu Xian was haggling with Du E.
Wu Xian had obtained the news about Auntie He's organization from Du E, so he had an obligation to inform Du E about what happened last night.
Before Wu Xian left last night, he had also swiped a few things from the villa under Jing Ke's incredulous gaze, just in time to sell them as second-hand goods to Du E.
Wu Xian had originally thought that since they were acquaintances, the price would be easy to negotiate, but Du E's performance left him shocked.
Du E showed her third face in front of Wu Xian.
Not the shy female college student, not the sinister female Gu-master...
But the Queen of Haggling!
This seemingly shy girl had a mouth like a machine gun, rattling off and criticizing the few things Wu Xian brought as worthless, to the point that even Wu Xian himself felt it was excessive to trouble Du E with junk.
In the end, Du E gave Wu Xian a friendly price, considering they had cooperated before, for that broken car of Wu Xian's that often wouldn't start and all that junk combined.
Twelve thousand.
After getting the money, Wu Xian's heart surged.
Last night, he had also helped Hu Yunkuan and Jing Ke connect, taking a one-thousand-yuan agency fee from each of them, plus Yu Laoban's one hundred thousand, Wu Xian's savings reached an astonishing one hundred and twenty thousand!
Yes...
Previously, Wu Xian's savings had been less than ten thousand yuan.
Holding a huge sum of money, Wu Xian was unprecedentedly inflated, preparing to buy a second-hand car and take Blackie out to have fun.
But at this moment, Du E suddenly threw out an enticing proposal.
"Do you want to go with me to the Chenghuangmiao to accept a task? Although the salary given by the Chenghuangmiao isn't high, there's still money to be made by bringing back some electrical appliances to sell as second-hand goods."
"I'm a weak girl with little strength; at most, I can dismantle an air conditioner or something. With you here, even refrigerators and washing machines can be moved back..."
Wu Xian's first reaction was that this was very shameful.
The second reaction was...
"Can I bring my dog along?"
The next day.
Du E took Wu Xian and accepted a task from the Chenghuangmiao.
An old man had died accidentally.
The old lady who had spent her whole life with the old man couldn't accept this reality, so she sought help from a charlatan. The charlatan gave her a talisman, saying it could bring her old man back to life.
That charlatan was a liar.
The talisman he gave was drawn blindly by himself and had no meaning, but for some reason, after the old lady took it home, the talisman turned into a Corpse Refinement Technique!
As soon as the zombie appeared, it scared the old lady to death.
But because the Corpse Refinement Technique was cast by the old lady, the zombie couldn't be too far from her, so it kept wandering around the house until it was discovered by passersby yesterday.
A zombie that was impervious to swords and guns was a nightmare for ordinary people, the kind that would make their legs go weak and unable to walk as soon as they encountered it.
But for Lotus Juanren, the threat level was not high.
After the Chenghuangmiao investigated and confirmed that the hidden danger was only in the old lady's home, the ten Lotus Juanren who accepted the task rushed toward the zombie all at once and knocked the zombie down in one encounter.
Among them, the most ferocious fighter was Wu Xian.
He waved the Golden Light Lightning Mirror and electrocuted the old man's bones until they were crisp...
The time spent on dismantling the air conditioner afterward was actually longer than the time spent dealing with the zombie; Wu Xian even injured his little finger for this.
After truly experiencing it.
Wu Xian fell in love with the feeling of accepting tasks.
After becoming a Lotus Juanren, one basically said goodbye to normal jobs that required fixed hours.
And the Chenghuangmiao handled all the work before and after the tasks; Lotus Juanren only needed half a day to complete a task and could earn one or two thousand yuan.
This was a way of making money more suitable for the Lotus Juanren constitution.
To thank Du E for taking him to make money, Wu Xian decided to invite Du E to his home for a meal.
Anyway, he was hosting guests, so there was no time like the present; he also invited Jing Ke, who had always wanted to mooch a meal, and Jing Ke brought Hu Yunkuan along...
Wu Xian's home had a bit more popularity after a long time.
Four people sat at the dining table filled with sumptuous dishes, but facing this feast that was perfect in color, aroma, and taste, no one moved their chopsticks except Wu Xian.
"Eat, Blackie's braised pork ribs are super delicious!"
Wu Xian picked up a piece of fish meat into his mouth, warmly inviting the guests to try it as the host.
The guests looked at the large black dog walking upright and wearing an apron, all falling into silence. Was this meal Wu Xian invited them to eat inedible, or was it inedible...
Fifteen days later.
Before Yu Xiaobo's crude grave.
Wu Xian dug a hole and buried the bank card in the soil before the grave.
Yu Laoban's disappearance and Yu Xiaobo's death left Gong Suihua, the only one left in the Yu family, heartbroken. On the day of the funeral, she cried her heart out, looking very pitiful.
But Wu Xian didn't give her the bank card.
Instead, he followed Yu Laoban's instructions and gave the bank card to Yu Xiaobo. After doing this, Wu Xian and Yu Laoban were square.
As for Gong Suihua...
Why bother with her?
Wu Xian tossed the shovel aside and returned to his newly bought old car.
This was a nine-percent-new black Citroën X5, purchased through Du E's second-hand channel; it could be considered a great bargain.
After this matter was done.
Wu Xian was going to a new Fudi.
What he saw and heard at the organization's villa made Wu Xian's mentality change slightly; his wariness of the real world lessened a lot, and he enjoyed himself more indulgently.
Life during this period, simply put, was awesome.
They had been to all the large entertainment venues near Fuyuan City, and they had been to the largest amusement park three times... mainly because this amusement park allowed pets to enter, so Blackie liked it very much.
However, being awesome came at a price.
Between buying a car, playing wildly, and buying kitchenware for Blackie, the huge sum of one hundred and twenty thousand was spent down to only a few thousand in a short time, which forced Wu Xian to restrain himself in the later stages.
When rich, spend lavishly; when poor, hide at home and play games.
Once Wu Xian had played enough.
He was ready to go to a new Fudi!
This time, Wu Xian didn't choose the location of the Fudi much; the experience from the last Fudi had already told him that choosing in advance didn't have much meaning, as the specific location of the Fudi might be transferred to other places through some means.
If there was anything different.
This Fudi was still a bit different.
First was the Blood-Lacquer Ghost-Head Blade; he didn't choose a weapon before because he didn't want to be too conspicuous, but this time he didn't mind being a bit flashy.
The reason was that in the previous Fudi, he had always lacked powerful direct attack means, leading to him always being beaten as a meat shield. This time, Wu Xian didn't want to be beaten, but wanted to beat others.
In addition, there were Constant Ornaments, Constant Slots, etc., which were not worth mentioning for now.
The biggest difference was...
Wu Xian looked at the passenger seat with disdain; this time he had an extra teammate.
