Chapter 142 – Hanging out with him

Jiang Luo just smiled politely, with a little wonder in his smile as to why this man kept pestering.

“……” said the funeral shop owner, “Here’s the deal, let me tell you a little bit about the effects of this earring. It’s called a ‘soul pendant’, and although it’s wearing the shell of a ‘soul pendant’, it actually works to calm the mind. It can clear your mind and keep you in your own self. More than that, it has a small function. It can give the owner who wears it the power to peer into other people’s soul worlds once a day, after all, the name is Dementor, so although it can’t take your soul, it can take other people’s souls ……”

The undertaker boasted the dangling earrings as if they were unique, and Jiang Luo waited for him to finish before asking nonchalantly, “Why do you have to let me wear them?”

The conversation turned back to the beginning and the funeral shop owner was about to break down, “You’re not impressed by something this good?”

Jiang Luo clutches the dangling earrings firmly and shakes his head.

The funeral shop owner said, “…… Forget it. I’m letting you wear it for your own good because I don’t want you to kill him ……” He turned his words and said, “Do you know who the best smith in this world is?”

Jiang Luo, who only knew Kuang Zheng as a smith, said with a straight face, “Kuang Zheng.”

The funeral shop owner laughed harshly, “He is very talented and I can’t help but teach him a few things. But you should know that everything your Bai Hua University students buy from my shop is made by my own hands, including the dementor pendant you are holding, which is also by my hand.”

Jiang Luo couldn’t help but look at him again, and the funeral shop owner puffed up his chest as he twirled his flowing beads, showing a reserved look of “I’m proud but I’ll wait modestly for your compliments”.

The ginseng spirit in Jiang Luo’s arms gave him a round of applause.

The undertaker coughed lightly and was about to say something else when Jiang Luo asked, “Did you also make my Yin-Yang ring?”

The funeral shop owner, his face masked with a funereal air, froze, the smile on his lips flattening and slowly straightening, “No.”

He looked deeply at Jiang Luo , “That’s what predestined people do.”

“He kept the Ring of Yin and Yang in my shop, waiting for someone to take it away,” Ji Yaozi said, “with twelve golden incantations on it. It was engraved by his own hand, and each golden spell is the presence of the evil spirits in the sky, a gift he had prepared for someone.”

“And you, you are the only one who has found the Ring of Yin and Yang.”

Jiang Luo’s face turned ugly for a moment.

*

Before the Yin-Yang Ring was almost crushed by Jiang Luo, he frowned and said, “The Yin-Yang Ring clearly has thirteen secret texts on it.”

“I haven’t finished my words,” Ji Yaozi said, “I saw that the Yin-Yang Ring had been dusty for a long time, so I refined it again and added a secret message to it. What the Yin-Yang Ring does now depends on its owner’s destiny with it.”

He shrugged, “I don’t know what the Yin-Yang Ring you opened has the ability to do, but it should still be the same old three things? To tell the direction, to distinguish between good and bad luck, and to determine yin and yang? But people who are not outstandingly talented or strong, especially those who don’t dare to even try to open the Yin-Yang Ring, won’t be able to bring the Yin-Yang Ring into play much.”

The funeral shop owner’s comment was an offhand remark, but in a flash of lightning, Jiang Luo seemed to understand something.

Did Ji Yaozi simply refine the Yin-Yang Ring because he was worried that it would break down because no one had used it for so long? No, he just wanted to change the weapon left by the Fatekeeper for “someone”, so as to give Chi You a chance to live. Like the Dementor’s Pendant, he only wanted to give Jiang Luo something that he did not want him to be completely brainwashed by the Fates to kill Chi You.

The Yin Yang Ring is a weapon bequeathed to Jiang Luo by the Predestined Man some unknown number of years ago, and the first three moves are indeed exactly the same as Ji Yaozi’s stated ability. The fourth action, however, is to draw the spirits.

The most powerful ghost in the world is brought in and the ghost will do a job for Jiang Luo, but Jiang Luo also needs to do whatever the ghost asks of him.

If this most powerful ghost is Chi You, let’s say that Jiang Luo is really brainwashed by the Predestined One and he fights Chi You in a dizzying fight. The 12 zodiac signs can only separate him from Chi You, and in the end, Jiang Luo cannot resist activating the fourth action of the Yin Yang Ring, and the ghost he summons is his rival Chi You ……

The surface of Jiang Luo is slightly distorted.

It’s a really, beautiful, image.

But having said that, Jiang Luo also believed Ji Yaozi. If he wanted to harm him, he could have caught Jiang Luo off guard with just a Yin-Yang ring.

He was sincere enough to reveal a lot of things, not to mention that Ji Yaozi did not send up the earrings himself, but gave them to Wen Renlian instead, which shows that he was also at his wits’ end, at least on the surface, he did not dare to help Jiang Luo openly and favor Chi You.

Jiang Luo looked in front of him at Feng Li and Daoist Wei He, and when he saw that they were not paying attention, Jiang Luo did not pretend any more, he turned his head in the shadows and smiled grimly at Ji Yaozi.

Jiang Luo lowered his voice and said slowly, “Oh, so you made these earrings, or did you find someone to give them to me?”

In the funeral shop owner’s shocked to incredulous eyes, the dark-haired youth picked up the corners of his crimson lips, ” Ji Yaozi , Lao Ji ah, so you think so much of me, I didn’t even know, so you and I are a grasshopper on the same rope.”

Ji Yaozi : “……”

He barely managed to catch his breath.

Voice trembling, “You, you’re faking it?”

Ji Yaozi cannot go against the Fates, so he secretly helps Jiang Luo. He thought that after a long detour and having Wen Renlian and the others deliver the dementor pendant, he was so impatient to see Jiang Luo being cleansed of his desires and still refusing to use the dementor pendant that he completely revealed himself.

It’s over, he’s exposed now.

The person who had exposed him was still humming and laughing, like a demon, “Old Ji ah, you are so well-intentioned to help me secretly, I can’t thank you enough. Don’t worry, I won’t expose you and will definitely not tell anyone about these things you’ve done.”

Threats, that’s a blatant threat! He was clearly saying: if you don’t stand by me, I’m going to tell people what you’ve been doing in private.

Ji Yaozi’s heart is cold.

Is Jiang Luo still human?

Not only were their desires not washed away, but they were tricked into lying to them?

Half-heartedly, he gave a bitter laugh and completely resigned himself to his fate.

It’s just that he deserves it.

At the same time, they dare not openly rebel against the predestined people, but at the same time they want to secretly prevent things from going in a bad direction. It is only a matter of time before one day, if one is so inside-out, that one is reckoned with.

He thought about it and had fun again.

Jiang Luo was the one who had set him up, and he loved the way Jiang Luo was so tough on himself and tougher on others that he was able to stay awake without the help of his dementor and tricked them all. With this in mind, Ji Yaozi feels confident about his future.

If it had been Jiang Luo, it would probably have changed the outcome of the future.

The funeral shop owner thought about it and also said dryly, “I’m not good at helping you with anything on the surface, but if there’s anything you need me to do, just say so, and I won’t excuse myself if I can do it.”

Ahead of them, Taoist Master Wei He had led them into the house and now was not a good time to talk, Jiang Luo shook his head and said, “We’ll talk later.”

Jiang Luo was the only one who ate well at this dinner, eating meat and ginseng and gnawing on leaves. Satisfied, the two men ate their fill and did not delay the conversation of the elders, so they prepared themselves to go to their rooms.

Feng Li put down his glass and said with a commanding tone, “Don’t wander off and go straight to your room.”

Jiang Luo’s smile remained the same, “Good.”

Back in the room, it was already 8pm.

Jiang Luo left the ginseng essence inside and went out alone to find a lump of ice. He froze his ear with the ice, and when his left earlobe was numb and insensitive, Jiang Luo took the dementor pendant through the flesh of the earlobe without blinking.

The drapery is the length of a grown man’s palm, delicate and full of spirit. Three long, brilliant red spikes dangle from the black hair, beautifully intertwined with black and red.

The pendant looks heavy, but when picked up, it is extremely light, and the material used is unknown.

After putting the dementor pendant on, Jiang Luo examines himself in front of the mirror.

It is no longer unusual for a man to have his ears pierced, and the exotic décolletage that looms beneath his hair adds a touch of sultriness to Jiang Luo’s brow, rather than dampening the diffidence in his eyes.

The man in the mirror and the earrings, either one is beautiful.

But if the evil spirit saw it, he would be angry that his “earlobe” had been pierced without his permission.

Jiang Luo looks at the moon and his eyes twinkle for a moment. He began to ponder whether to use the evil spirits or not tonight.

In the end, he happily decided to call it a night.

He could test the effect of the pendant tomorrow now that he had it in his hand. Secondly, the evil spirit’s insatiable and greedy look gave Jiang Luo a sense of satisfaction that would make Chi You fall in love with him, but his unabashed talk of possessing Jiang Luo’s skin and blood made Jiang Luo very unhappy.

Why not just hang him out to dry?
