Before Ye Xiao finished speaking, he was interrupted by Wu Yuanbao:
"If you can save my grandfather, I will do whatever you want me to do, and I promise you how much money you want!"
Wu Yuanbao didn't trust Ye Xiao very much, after all, he saw with his own eyes that his grandfather was dying.
But in his heart, he held a little hope for Ye Xiao's words, because the old man usually loves him the most, so he decided to find a good place for the old man at all costs.
Now that he knows that the old man still has a chance, he certainly doesn't want to just give up.
"Okay! Then please, sir, come with me!"
Ye Xiao nodded.
Wu Family Courtyard.
The wall at the entrance was covered with wreaths, and mourners lined up in a long queue.
Most of these people are people who have business dealings with the Wu family.
The Wu family itself is a big family with hundreds of billions of dollars, and there are naturally many business partners.
Moreover, since the downfall of the Yun family in Southwest Province, the Wu family's rise has been very strong.
So these people came here because they wanted to take this opportunity to cling to the new Patriarch who was about to take over, Wu Jiangwen.
Ye Xiao didn't let his older sisters come with him this time. After all, coming to this kind of occasion would also cause bad luck.
It's just that this matter is related to the relatives of the third sister, so Ye Xiao can't just sit idly by.
However, because Li Yuzhen and Li Yumo were in the midst of the situation, they insisted on coming together.
After getting out of the car, several people followed Wu Yuanbao to the gate of Wu's courtyard.
This gate is very grand, compared to the old house of my grandfather's family in Jinling Lane in Jiangnan City.
There are red lacquered bronze doors, and white marble stone lions are placed on both sides.
Just as Ye Xiao reached the gate, he stopped and looked at the two lions next to him: "When were these two lions placed here?"
Wu Yuanbao looked confused: "It was just released two months ago. The previous lion was hit by a car, so uncle asked someone to carve a new one."
"So, you have to be wary of your uncle."
Wu Yuanbao's expression changed: "What do you mean?"
Ye Xiao smiled faintly: "Young Master Wu, do you know the meaning of the stone beads in the stone lion's mouth?"
When Wu Yuanbao heard Ye Xiao's question, he immediately felt embarrassed. He only felt that the lion standing at the door looked very mighty. How could he know the meaning?
Ye Xiao shook his head and said: "The stone lions have been in pairs since ancient times, with the female on the left and the male on the right. According to legend, in the ancient times of Great Xia, there were many monsters in the world causing chaos, and the people suffered for a long time. Seeing this, a man made up his mind to solve the suffering for the people, so he Entering the mountain to learn art. A fairy was very moved, so he taught him a precious orb. As long as he held the orb in his mouth, he could turn into a lion and subdue demons. The demons and goblins have all been driven back to the demon world, and from then on, the world is peaceful."
"So, the stone bead in the stone lion's mouth is a precious bead."
"Later, when this man died, the monster was about to move again, and when he returned to the human world, people thought of a way, which was to carve a stone lion out of stone, put it at the door of the house, and put stone beads in their mouths. When I came back, I could only be afraid of escaping.¡±
"This is the origin of the saying that stone lions ward off evil spirits."
"Young Master Wu, take a look again, what is the pattern on the hollow carving in the mouth of the stone lion in front of your house?"
Wu Yuanbao walked up to the stone lion and carefully looked at the stone bead in the big mouth.
Before Wu Yuanbao could speak, Liu Baxian, the number one feng shui master in the Southwest Province who followed him, took a deep breath: "Inside this hollowed-out stone bead, there is actually an enchanting bell!"
In fact, it was only the second time that Liu Baxian came to Wu's house, and Wu Yuanbao only asked him to find a geomantic treasure land, not his own mansion, so he didn't pay attention.
Ye Xiao said indifferently: "In the mouth of the stone lion in the town house, put the pattern of the soul-witching bell, which is actually trying to seduce people's souls. Your grandfather's sudden death is not easy! Who made this stone lion, you should check it yourself. Check it out."
Just now Wu Yuanbao said that the two white marble lions were made by his uncle.
This uncle Wu Jiangwen is the next head of the Wu family!
At this moment, Liu Baxian also realized that he was originally a very smart person, but now he has realized that the matter in front of him may not be so simple. He was a little afraid of getting into trouble, and immediately said: "Young Master Wu, I suddenly Thinking about some urgent matters at home, you see, with this gentleman here, can I go first?"
Wu YuanbaoHe was skeptical about Ye Xiao's words. Compared to such a young Ye Xiao, he still trusted Liu Baxian, after all, Liu Baxian had a great reputation.
"Master Liu, don't worry, is that what he said just now?"
Liu Baxian suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
How dare he say more about the Wu family?
Besides, this Wu Jiangwen is the next head of the Wu family!
Even if I can guess what, but can I say this?
Fairy Liu Ba hesitated for a moment, then said with shame on her face: "Young Master Wu, you see that I am too old, I may be too old to tell just now, but I was mistaken, that may not be the Haunting Bell just now, As for what pattern it is, I really can¡¯t say.¡±
Wu Yuanbao snorted coldly when he heard the words, apparently very dissatisfied with Liu Baxian's remarks.
"Young Master Wu, what, I'll take my leave first!"
Seeing that Wu Yuanbao didn't want to talk to him anymore, Liu Baxian glared at Ye Xiao, immediately rubbed the soles of his feet with oil, and slipped away.
Although Wu Yuanbao was not very happy in his heart, it was the most important thing to treat the old man first, so he ignored Liu Baxian and walked inside with Ye Xiao.
The Wu family's courtyard is very large, almost the whole is built in a valley, surrounded by high mountains on all sides, there are courtyards in the courtyard in the valley, gardens and waterside pavilions, everything that one expects to find, covering a very large area.
The mourning hall of the old man of the Wu family is located in the main hall.
At this moment, Ye Xiao stopped again, stood in the corridor leading to the main hall, and looked at the marble floors in front of him.
"What's the matter?" Wu Yunfei couldn't help asking.
Ye Xiao shook his head: "It's nothing, let's go see the old man."
Of course Ye Xiao found something, because the black lacquered marble floor on the waterside corridor leading to the main hall should have just been renovated, and there are nine yuan in total!
This is the Nine Palace Heartburning Demon, arranged on the road that the old man must pass every day.
Under the nine black lacquered marbles, the old man's birth date, body hair, and some rotten flesh picked from the dead should be buried.
With this heart-burning spirit in the Nine Palaces, coupled with the Soul Haunting Bell at the door, no matter how hard this old man is, he will not escape disaster.
Ye Xiao came here today, just to save the old man, and let the Wu family give 10 million to the Li family by the way, so it's over.
As for the point raised by himself, he has no reason to care whether the old man will live or die in the future.
Following the corridor, a few people came to the main hall. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
