Chapter 72 This is something that not only ghosts can do, but the White Bone Demon can do too!
Chapter 72 This is something that not only ghosts can do, but the White Bone Demon can do too!
After finishing the blood wine, the White Bone Demon lay sprawled on the bed, still immersed in shock.
Hand-crafted lightning!
A member of the Taoist sect.
This world is becoming increasingly complicated.
"wrong……"
The White Bone Demon sat bolt upright, recalling their previous encounter: "That lightning magic was too weak; it couldn't hurt me at all. And when he attacked, his incantations seemed unrelated to the lightning magic? Were those incantations just for show?"
"Damn! I was stunned by that lightning technique and didn't think about it carefully. Now that I think about it, something's really wrong."
If he truly possessed such power, the monster within him would have already made its move…
"Our strange creatures can continuously enhance their Yang energy, and as human Yang energy becomes more and more abundant, they will also become strange."
The White Bone Demon crossed her legs, her leg bones swaying back and forth: "However, this lightning magic has problems, but it's also good for fooling ghosts. I can't practice martial arts, so I wonder if I can master this kind of lightning magic?"
Just imagine, a White Bone Demon, conjuring lightning with her skeletal claws—that's pretty cool.
But it's just a thought.
After all, he and Zhang Qingguan only fought once, so the other party would never teach him.
"My bone poison shouldn't be a problem for him, right?"
This is also why the White Bone Demon doesn't use her power much.
His poisons penetrate directly into the bones, making them very difficult to remove.
However, Zhang Qingguan was quite strong. He was only focused on leaving, so he just dealt with the situation casually and ran away. In addition, there was a Xuanwu, so it shouldn't be too difficult for him. He would probably just feel uncomfortable for a while and then get rid of it.
Unfortunately, there were no clues about the shadowy figures, and the eerie music also disappeared.
He went to the hotel, but he's long gone. He might have gone back to the city, or he might have gone somewhere else.
The other party is hiding, so it's really hard for him to find them.
Unleash your power to find a strange creature?
Unless he's gone mad!
If he dares to do that, the police will have to target him with all their might and give him a taste of equality.
However, I have already recorded the eerie atmosphere of the music. If he dares to come to the new city again, he won't be able to escape.
"sleep."
The White Bone Demon pulled up the covers and enjoyed a peaceful sleep.
The next morning.
Ding Dong
The phone rang. It was a message from Gu Qingyi: "Gu Bai, are you up yet? There's an exhibition here, two tickets, let's go have some fun."
The White Bone Demon resolutely refused: "I'm not going."
"You haven't started work yet, so you're just idling around anyway. Come out for a walk, don't get bored."
"A ticket costs a thousand yuan! I just checked, and Xiao Liu's girlfriend is actually a stone carving master. These tickets are incredibly hard to come by!"
"Not interested."
"Gu Bai, I finally got a day off, and you came out to have some fun. You don't want to go to work and not earn money, do you?"
The White Bone Demon frowned: "What, are you threatening me with my job? And you can even impound my car?"
Gu Qingyi: "Where would you get so many pigs to deliver? Those pig farms didn't have any pigs to sell to you at the beginning of the year."
Gu Bai asked in surprise, "You have a new approach to pig farming?"
At the beginning of the year, pig farms were just starting to raise pigs, and now that the Lunar New Year has just passed, people still haven't finished eating the New Year's goods they've stored up. It's estimated that the pork from the slaughterhouses won't sell.
In addition, the new urban area has been stable for some time now, so there is no need to worry about not being able to buy vegetables for the time being.
Gu Qingyi said, "No, but I have a good job for you: you can delegate the work of collecting pigs to someone else and just take a cut."
"What kind of job?" Gu Bai asked.
He really can't just sit around and do nothing; if he buys blood wine a few more times, he'll become a bankrupt, ruthless woman.
There are still three stable grain depots to maintain.
"I learned stone carving from Xiao Liu's girlfriend. Do you know what stone carving is? A single stone carving can sell for over 100,000 yuan."
Gu Qingyi: "My goodness, I didn't know Xiao Liu's girlfriend was so rich. You should come over and learn from her, let her guide you."
Gu Bai: "Would someone teach me their cooking skills?"
Gu Qingyi (smugly): "Her boyfriend has to watch his step."
White Bone Demon: "..."
Gu Qingyi: "Alright, alright, I've already asked. Her girlfriend needs an apprentice, that's why I recommended you. Come to the entrance of the community."
"Ten minutes."
The White Bone Demon put on a leather coat, brushed her teeth, washed her face, and went out.
Arriving at the entrance of the residential area, Gu Qingyi stood in front of the car and waved.
"You changed your car?" Gu Bai looked at her car in surprise. It wasn't the Qin anymore, but a Mercedes.
"We have a distinguished guest visiting the bureau. This is his car; I'll be driving it for a couple of days," Gu Qingyi said with a smile. "Would you like to give it a try?"
"No need," Gu Bai shook his head. "Where will the exhibition be?"
"The stadium was packed with people. If it weren't for Xiao Liu giving us tickets, we wouldn't have been able to buy any."
Gu Qingyi said, "Guo Jin wanted to go, but there were no tickets left."
"His girlfriend is so amazing, how come he didn't enjoy the good life with her?" Gu Bai suddenly thought of Ma Gan.
Ma Gan followed Xiao Liu at the request of Xiao Liu's girlfriend to catch him cheating.
Could it be that she wants to dump Xiao Liu?
But the two weren't married, so if she dumped him, so be it. Why worry about Xiao Liu taking her share of her assets?
Gu Qingyi said, "Xiao Liu also has a sense of justice, okay? This time, it can be considered that the bureau is helping him and satisfying his girlfriend's ambition."
"What did you satisfy her for?" Gu Bai asked curiously.
"His girlfriend used to live in another city and always wanted to come back, but she couldn't get the exhibition organized because of her connections."
Gu Qingyi said, "Xiao Liu mentioned it a few times, but everyone was too busy to help. This time, we were tricked by Ying Gui and Xiao Liu was forced to fill in for us. We felt bad, so we applied for the stadium to host the exhibition for him."
"How is their relationship?" Gu Bai asked.
"Relationship?" Gu Qingyi glanced at him: "They're very much in love. They're inseparable whenever they have time. They're so affectionate that it's enviable. I heard they've been dating for three years."
Gu Bai raised an eyebrow. Xiao Liu was just an ordinary person, so how could he have won the heart of a wealthy woman?
Is this stone carving master just too ugly?
The vehicle sped through the streets and arrived at the stadium half an hour later.
Zhang Yijun, Stone Carving Exhibition.
Gu Bai looked at the signboard and the photo at the entrance. It showed a woman with long hair and glasses, who had an intellectual beauty.
"It's beautiful."
"Am I not pretty?" Gu Qingyi said with dissatisfaction. "Do all men like other men's girlfriends?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? I just don't understand how someone who's beautiful and rich could fall for Xiao Liu?" Gu Bai said.
"To each their own, and besides, Xiao Liu isn't bad at all."
Gu Qingyi tugged at his sleeve: "Let's go, let's go inside."
The two paid their tickets and entered the stadium.
Inside, there are various stone carvings, including not only the common dragons and phoenixes, but also some anime and cartoon characters.
Besides these, there are also some wood carvings and jade carvings.
Many people came and crowded in front of the counter, admiring the sculptures.
"The cheapest one is 299?"
Gu Bai felt like he had lived in vain. When he was online, 299 was nothing, but when he saw it in real life, there was only one word: It's damn expensive!
Those jade carvings even have several 9s at the end.
Some wood carvings are even more expensive.
He suddenly felt that pulling pigs wasn't so appealing anymore. He worked himself to the bone to earn over a million yuan, but it wasn't even as good as someone else's stone carving.
"Zhang Yijun is an intangible cultural heritage inheritor, she has a certificate. I heard that one of her dragon stone carvings was auctioned for millions of yuan," Gu Qingyi said.
"Where is she? I'll go and become her apprentice right now."
The task of grinding grain isn't just something ghosts can do; even the White Bone Demon can do it!
"She has ten minutes, let's hurry up to the second floor." Gu Qingyi led him upstairs.
There is one room on the second floor.
Xiao Liu, dressed in a black tuxedo, was snuggling up to Zhang Yijun: "My colleague Gu Qingyi is here. Didn't you want to take on an apprentice? I'll give you one."
"Apprentice? What's his character like? Has he ever been involved in carving before?" Zhang Yijun asked.
"His character is fine, but as for his carving, I don't know," Xiao Liu said. "Gu Qingyi seems to have a thing for him."
"She pursued him?" Zhang Yijun asked in surprise. "I've heard you say that Gu Qingyi is quite capable. Would someone like her take the initiative to pursue someone?"
"It was a life-saving grace. Gu Bai saved her in an accident before," Xiao Liu explained. "Here she is. I'll go open the door."
Gu Bai and Gu Qingyi walked in, their eyes falling on Zhang Yijun's hands, and their brows furrowed.
Smooth and fair.
No calluses!
This doesn't look like a sculptor's hand.
