Chapter Forty-Seven Negotiation

  Xing Chengtian clearly told Fu Chuan that there was no way to deal with the Lingti weapon, and he could only think of a solution himself. The Lingti weapon was very formidable, and as for how formidable it was, Xing Chengtian let out a sigh on the phone. Fu Chuan's task was difficult, and he also knew that it wouldn't be easy to deal with Hua Zi, but he couldn't just sit back and do nothing, could he? After all, he couldn't just let Hua Zi continue to wreak havoc in the mortal world.

  After seeing off Li Bao, Fu Chuan finally put his mind at ease about one thing, but there were even more annoying things waiting for him in the back.

  When he drove to the bottom of Jiahe Building, Fu Chuan observed that the black evil air on the top of the building was getting more and more severe, all condensed on the top of the building.

  Fujiang couldn't quite put into words why he ended up at the Jihe Building after learning about the cause of events, but his feet still carried him inside.

  Fuhe walked into the building, and the people inside were still living their lives as usual. They had no idea of the danger lurking beside them, with evil spirits clinging to their backs, trying to take advantage of the situation to get out. Although they were all bounced back, they still didn't give up.

  The old man who used to be the doorman was gone, he had left his job after Fu Chuan asked him something. That night was actually his last shift at Jiahe Building, and he was going to Canada to see his children.

  I admire the old man who has been guarding here for decades in the calm and peaceful years of Jiahua Building. Now that something has happened to Jiahua Building, he can retreat completely unscathed, which is not enviable.

  Fuhe didn't mean anything else, he just felt envious, probably because he had been yearning for such a peaceful life in his heart. Over the years, he had experienced so many things and always wanted to marry a wife, find a job, and become someone like that old man, working hard for the people he loved, for his children, and living a good life.

  Fu Chuan walked into the elevator and met the stout owner of Jiahe Building outside the elevator. The owner seemed to have forgotten Fu Chuan, he was busy instructing his assistant, Fu Chuan noticed that there was also a middle-aged man wearing a Taoist robe standing beside him.

  It was probably this middle-aged Taoist priest who was the expert he had invited back to catch monsters. Fu Chuan remained expressionless, but he actually wanted to see what they were capable of.

  Fu Chuan pressed the number to the 32nd floor, then stood aside. The boss was talking to someone next to him, saying something like "Master is great, he can definitely help with catching ghosts and demons."

  Fu Chuan sneered inwardly, thinking that among the major sects in C City that could truly capture demons and collect ghosts, only the Fu family was left. Others were either half-hearted or swindlers. Looking at the Taoist priest, Fu Chuan thought he was a swindler at first glance. The label on his Taoist robe hadn't even been removed, clearly showing it was bought online with free shipping.

  That boss found Fu Chuan to be an eyesore, and several times he looked at Fu Chuan with a gaze that was full of disdain. Fu Chuan didn't care, but he still saw a blue-clad fierce ghost crawling down from the ventilation opening in the elevator, its first target being that boss, while the so-called high-ranking person hadn't noticed anything at all.

  Fuhe felt the air in the elevator suddenly turn cold, he shivered and then stood aside to see what that blue ghost wanted to do.

  The blue ghost stared at the boss, his eyes filled with anger. Fu Chuan thought this was a message of revenge from the ghost, and it was impossible for him to have such an expression if he didn't have any grudges against the boss in his lifetime.

  This boss must have done something wrong to this ghost before he died, that's why the ghost is haunting him.

  Fu Chuan remained still, wanting to see the outcome. Just as the blue ghost's sharp claws were about to grab the old boss, they were repelled by a beam of light emitted from the old boss's neck. Fu Chuan took a look and found that the old boss was wearing a gold chain around his neck, which was thicker than a human thumb. A Buddha pendant hung from the chain.

  Fu Xiang thought it was no wonder, that Buddha statue looked like it was brought back from some unclean place in Thailand. However, this Buddha statue probably wouldn't be able to protect him for much longer even if he went to the rooftop.

  Thailand is a Buddhist country, but it's also the dirtiest place because apart from believing in Buddhism, people there also believe in many other gods and deities, such as the Four-Faced Buddha, and other gods that can't be named. Although they are all called gods, those gods are actually considered evil spirits, although they are very efficacious, but also very mysterious.

  Many people go to Thailand to worship Buddha amulets, these Buddha amulets can protect them for a while, but they also have conditions. When you don't meet these conditions, the evil spirits will take back what they gave to these people with interest.

  Fuhe still remembers one thing, two years ago he went to Macau to investigate a strange case. The client was a businessman who had sought help from a Thai shaman and brought back a Buddha pendant to worship at home. At that time, his business was not going well, but after seeking the Buddha pendant, his business turned for the better, and the momentum of his family also improved greatly. However, less than a year later, his business suddenly took a downturn, even worse than before he sought the Buddha pendant, and during that period, the client's wife jumped off a building to her death without any reason.

  Moreover, strange things happened one after another in the master's family. The master had previously sought a Buddha card and did not fulfill his promise, so he went to Thailand again to find that sorcerer, but the sorcerer avoided him, saying that he had deceived the gods, and now the gods wanted to take back what they had given him doubly.

  Later, many things happened in the master's family, including his wife, mother and father all died for no reason. Later, he found that things were getting more and more wrong, and his children seemed to be targeted by that god too, so he came to Fu Chuan from afar.

  After Fu Chuan arrived in Macau, he discovered that the problem was indeed with the Buddha pendant. Fu Chuan also went to Thailand to find the sorcerer, but the sorcerer maliciously told Fu Chuan not to interfere with other people's business. In fact, the sorcerer was just a mouthpiece for those so-called evil forces. The Buddha pendant sold by the sorcerer to the master was actually one of the most evil types of pendants in the local area, and it was not a deity at all, but rather a very poisonous witchcraft. The sorcerer would take out a full-term fetus from its mother's womb while it was still alive, then refine it for 49 days, turning the fetus into a mummified corpse that was only as big as a thumb. Then, they would soak the corpse in oil for a year, during which time the sorcerer would provide his own fresh blood to nourish the corpse every day. This is what people now consider to be an evil spirit.

  The little demon is raised by the witch, only listening to the witch's words. The witch does this just for wealth or revenge. Later, Fu Chuan found out that the witch family and the master's family had some grudges, and he was also intentionally luring the master into a trap, intending to make the master's whole family die out.

  Fu Xiang looked at the golden chain on that person's neck, thinking to himself: "I've never done anything wrong in my life, I'm not afraid of ghosts knocking on my door in the middle of the night. If you've done something bad, it will come back to haunt you sooner or later, no matter how thick a gold chain you wear."

  That blue ghost suddenly flashed to Fuchuan's side, standing beside him. Its eyes looked at Fuchuan without any malice, as if conveying a message it wanted Fuchuan to know.

  Fuhe let out a silent sigh, then his hand grasped the cold and slippery hand beside him.

  It turned out that this blue ghost wanted to tell Qian Wei why it wanted to harm the man in front of her. Five years ago, she was an ordinary employee at Jiahe Building, helping her boss manage everything at Jiahe Building. One evening, however, her boss suddenly came to the workshop and got drunk. She poured a glass of water for him, but he became lecherous and eventually raped her.

  Her father died very early, she and her mother relied on each other for survival, and it was not easy to find this job. The family depended on this job to make a living, but later the boss not only raped her, but also forbade her from speaking out, threatening to kill her and her mother if she did.

  She endured in silence and continued working in the building, but her boss became increasingly brazen, raping her repeatedly. One evening, she could no longer bear it and fought back, grabbing scissors from the desk and stabbing at her boss. However, as a woman, she was no match for the obese man, and after being pushed away, she died on the nail on the wall.

  The boss was afraid and called his assistant to bury her in a wall of the office, five years without seeing the sun, she must take revenge this time.

  Fu Xiang closed his eyes, loosened his grip on her hand and said in a low voice: "It's not the time yet."

  He stared at Fu Chuan, silently thinking: "When will it be time!"

  "At least not now."

  The boss is a key figure, and Fu Chuan cannot let him die now. If things are settled, he tells him that he can turn a blind eye to one thing and close one eye to another.

  It finally compromised with Fu Chuan, left, and the air temperature in the elevator also returned to normal. When they arrived at the building, Fu Chuan was the first to walk out of the elevator.

  Fu Chuan walked to the rooftop at dawn, and the people behind him probably thought it was strange. They wanted to call out to Fu Chuan and ask what he was doing, but before they could open their mouths, Fu Chuan had already vanished from sight.

  The rooftop is the headquarters, and it's also the place with the heaviest grievances. Huāzi has been on the rooftop all along, although she can't get out, but she can still know what happened outside, and Fù Chuān has already arrived here.

  "I wasn't going to look for you, yet you dare to come looking for me yourself." Hua Zi was now dressed in a red kimono standing amidst the dark aura of resentment. Fu Chuan stepped forward from the doorway, "I know how you died and that you've been searching for your grandfather."

  "Don't mention him to me again." Hana said with a scowl.

  Fuhe is not here to die in a fishing net, he says: "I want to know if you still want to reincarnate."

  "I don't care, I'm fine now, whoever looks at me with disapproval, I'll kill him!"

  Fujiang shook his head and said, "It's not like that, Huazhi. You shouldn't have become this way."

  Hua Zi burst into laughter and said, "You're really ridiculous. How should I have been? How did I die? Do you know? Do you know how he suffocated me to death?"

  Fuhe was about to speak, but Huazai didn't give him the chance, "You don't know anything!"

  He actually understood the feeling of being in a desperate situation and said: "Don't harm anyone else, I'll help you."

  "How can you help me, help me be reborn?"

  "I can't do it, but I can help you reincarnate and find someone to deliver your deceased spirit."

  "No need!" Hanae sternly refused Fuchuan's so-called kindness.

  Fuhe finally understood why he would risk going into the Jiahe Building to see Huazhi, it was simply because he couldn't bear to not do so.

  Fujiang looked at Hanako and said: "I'm being kind, you can refuse, but you're not allowed to harm people again!"

  "You just won't, will you?" Hua Zi's smile grew even more sinister as she said, "I won't! I'll tell you, I know who the person you love most in your heart is. I'll let you experience what it feels like to lose the one you love."

  Hanako told Fuyukawa that Mitsui Hiroya had not only suffocated her, but also his own son and Hanako's mother. Fuyukawa finally understood why Hanako wanted to get the music box - she also wanted to release her parents.

  Fujiang thought it was a sad story, but he wouldn't call out the music box.

  "Hand over the music box and I'll let you off!" Hua Zi proposed his own condition, Fu Chuan shook his head, then said: "The music box is in my hands, but I won't give it to you. Forget about the music box, that's not something that belongs to you."

  "Hua Zi laughed and said: 'You don't know how to eliminate it either, what's the use of holding onto it?'"

  Fu Chuan said: "I know you know how to open the music box, do you think I would give it to you?"

  Hua Zi thought Fu Chuan was intentionally coming to provoke her, "I'll kill you right now!"

  Just then, a group of people rushed in, and Fu Chuan cursed silently, "Damn it!"

  They all looked at Huāzi, completely ignoring Fù Chuān by the side. The fat-bellied boss pointed at Huāzi and said: "It's you! You're making trouble in my building, just watch me not let Master beat your soul out of your body today!"

  Actually, when he said that, the so-called master had already escaped without a trace. When he turned around to find his good teacher, the boss was stunned, and his assistant was also stunned, asking him what the boss should do now.

  The boss turned around and ran away, but the iron gate closed at this moment. Huāzi looked at that fat man, then slowly floated in front of him.

  "Do you want to kill me?"

  The boss begged for mercy repeatedly. He thought it was just some kid playing a prank, but when he saw Huāzi's legless legs floating in the air, he was so scared that he peed his pants.

  Many vengeful spirits gathered around Huāzi. Fù Chuān knew he couldn't deal with Huāzi at the moment, so he chose to sneak away quietly. As for what happened to the old boss in the end, Fù Chuān also found out from the news on the newspaper the next day.

  The boss of Jiahao Building jumped off the building and committed suicide, with his intestines ripped out.

  Fujiang knew that all of this was Huazhi's doing. Fujiang sat on the sofa, silently sighing. San Yang walked over at this time and said, "It must have been her who did it."

  Three sheep guessed it was definitely done by Huāzi Gān. "Master, when are we going to pick her up?"

  "We can't let her continue to harm people like this."

  Fu Chuan asked San Yang: "What if the one who died was a bad person?"

  Three sheep didn't understand what Fu Chuan meant by his words, "Master, what do you mean by this? Didn't you teach me that the heavens reward good and punish evil, and that there is a reckoning in heaven? How could you say such a thing?"
