Chapter 43: The Opportunity of Paozi

  "Tianqi, you really can't lie, even I can tell that you're hiding something." The instructor went to the study room, and Fatso leaned in close to Tianqi and whispered.

  Tian Qi glared at him, who wouldn't lie, mainly to see who was in front of whom. He lied in front of his mentor just like he did in front of his parents, and before the words were out of his mouth, he felt uneasy all over. Fortunately, after Zhang Xin returned, he planned to let his mentor meet him, which also made up for the guilt in his heart.

  But Tian Qi did not expect that this would be enough for two whole years.

  Soon, Yu Ming came out of the study with a freshly printed paper in his hand.

  "This is the picture you passed to me, I enlarged and printed it out. The building has a very heavy 'yin' energy, do you know where it is?" Yuè Yān Míng handed Tiān Qí a piece of paper, on which was the building that Fourth Master had let them enter.

  "I don't know, it was sent by a friend and asked me to take a look." Tian Qi continued to lie.

  "If you find out, be sure to tell me. Don't enter on your own, this isn't a natural formation, someone has tampered with the building."

  Fatso is having second thoughts, it seems that sometimes he still has to stick to his own stance and judgment, at the time he voted against it, feeling that something was off, it seems that in the future he can't always listen to Tianqi.

  The matter of the building was thus settled, but what really caught Yu Ming's interest was that copper mirror.

  "What, 'Yin' Yang mirror? My god, isn't that the treasure of the legendary Chi Jingzi?" Hearing Yue Yanming say that the copper mirror was called this name, Pangzi exclaimed in surprise at the first time. If it were true, they would be rich for generations to come and the world would be shocked!

  But what Mo Yan said next poured a bucket of cold water on him.

  "Of course not, that's just a legendary thing, it's unknown whether it exists in the world, and most of it is probably exaggerated. 'Yin' Yang mirror is just a name, when a bronze mirror reaches a certain level, it can be called 'Yin' Yang mirror, but this bronze mirror can be considered a high-level artifact, I've never seen one like it before." Yue Yanming said.

  Just as the mentor was introducing, Tian Qi also took a look at the materials printed by the mentor. The main function of the 'Yin' Yang mirror is to drive out evil spirits, which explains why Fourth Master would be attacked whenever he encountered copper mirrors, and how that formation was easily broken. The higher the level of the copper mirror, the more stringent its requirements for selecting a master: first, he must be a good person; second, he must be an upright person.

  "Tian Qi, this friend of yours is really concerned about you. Such a priceless treasure would not be easily given to anyone by whoever possesses it. It's even worth passing down as a family heirloom." Yue Yanming became more interested in Tian Qi's friend and was eager to meet him soon.

  Tian Qi naturally understood what the instructor meant and said that he would arrange it as soon as he returned.

  Tian Qi and the mentor waited a bit longer, preparing to return to the company today. Yingying also had to start her course learning as soon as possible. To graduate with a Ph.D., she had to prepare her thesis topic in advance and conduct research to gather materials, which was a long process. Although she had an awesome dad, he could only provide references for her and couldn't complete it for her. With Tian Qi's personality, first, she wouldn't do that, and second, Yingying wouldn't agree either. She wanted to earn her Ph.D. with her own abilities and hadn't thought about relying on her father at all.

  On the way back, it was Fatso who drove. At first, Tianqi didn't pay much attention to the outside and instead carefully observed the texture on the copper mirror. However, when his neck felt a bit sore and he wanted to lift his head to rest for a while, he discovered that this wasn't the road back to the company.

  "Why aren't you heading back to the company, where are you going instead, Fatty?" They had agreed to head back to the company before they left, and hadn't heard Fatty say he was going somewhere else.

  "Don't ask, you'll know when you get there." The fat man said with a sly smile, his small eyes narrowing as he spoke mysteriously.

  Tian Qi couldn't be bothered with him anyway, after all, he couldn't sell himself. The places Fatso wanted to go were just some hot spring resorts or something like that.

  The car had been driving for less than an hour when Baozi told Tianqi and Qiu Shen that they had arrived.

  Yu Yue Hot Spring Resort, the name is quite good.

  As expected, after a few days of not coming, Fatty is itching again.

  "Don't look at me like that, I'm not doing it for my own pleasure. We almost got killed on our last outing and we're still carrying some bad luck, shouldn't we clean up?" said the fatty with a sense of righteousness.

  But Tian Qi and Qiu Shen have already followed the service staff into the hotel, and didn't hear what the fatty was saying. In fact, even if the fatty hadn't come today, Tian Qi had planned to come tomorrow or the day after, although they are young, being young is not a capital, can't neglect their bodies for work.

  "Hey, you two wait for me, this isn't right!" The fatty locked the car door and chased after them.

  Soaking in the hot spring, Tian Qi felt a sense of relaxation throughout his body. His body wasn't particularly tired, but he had been mentally tense for quite some time and hadn't fully recovered from last night's makeshift sleep in the car, so his body couldn't help but feel somewhat fatigued.

  "Hey! Don't fall asleep, let's get a massage and then have a good sleep!" After soaking for a while, Fatso called out to Tianqi and Chou Shen.

  It was already five o'clock in the afternoon when we came out of the hot spring resort. The fat man drove back to the company.

  "You think our company should hire someone else? It's not good to close the 'door' when we're not in the company." As for business, Fatso naturally has more experience than Tianqi and Chou, so-called opening the "door" to do business. If the company often closes the "door" to customers, it will definitely have an impact, although they are currently doing a special business.

  "Uh, you arrange this, but we need to come together for an interview, after all, the line of work we're in is a bit special." Tian Qi said.

  The fat man patted his chest and said it was no problem.

  Just as they were going upstairs, the fat man let out a loud cry.

  "The black 'jade' has been stolen! Damn it!" The fat man was furious, holding the box containing the corpse 'jade'.

  He was in charge of keeping accounts, and the first thing he did when he returned to the company was to check the safe and some valuable items. When he checked the black "jade", he found that the original black "jade" was gone, replaced by a very small black "jade".

  "Is there anything else missing besides this?" Tian Qi furrowed his brow and said, was the thief intentionally playing a trick on them, exchanging the original with a smaller one?

  The fat man continued to check and found nothing else missing.

  "This is actually that piece of jade for raising corpses, it's just smaller now." At this time, Chou Shen picked up the black jade from the box and said.

  "Let me take a look," Tian Qi had just seen the black 'jade' of this size, and instinctively thought that the original one must have been stolen by someone else, and didn't even pick it up to see.

  After checking for a while, they finally confirmed that the black 'jade' with a diameter of about three inches now looked like it was originally a piece of 'nourishing jade' with a diameter of about twenty centimeters, but it was unknown why it had shrunk.

  "Hmm, it's probably true. The password lock on top was bought by me personally. It looks small but has a lot of high-tech content inside. Ordinary people can't open it." Fatso had forgotten this when he got angry earlier. When he opened it, the lock wasn't damaged at all, and the box hadn't been destroyed either.

  As for the specific abilities of 'Black Jade', Tian Qi still doesn't understand it clearly now, except that it can keep corpses from rotting, and last time they fell into the illusion formation, Black Jade helped them break through the formation. Other aspects of its abilities are still unknown.

  Tian Qi held the black 'jade' in his hand, looked at the fatty again, and smiled: "It's good that it has become smaller, just right to wear on the body. I'll give it to you, tomorrow we'll make a frame and set the black 'jade' into it. Be sure not to damage the original 'jade'."

  "What? Give it to me, I didn't mishear, did I?" The fatty didn't take it, his mouth agape in an 'O' shape. He knew the value of this black 'jade', and could imagine just how precious something that could be passed down as a family heirloom would be.

  "Don't be dazed, or you'll drool soon. Just wear it." Tian Qi also had his own considerations, especially after being calculated by Fourth Master this time. Fatso was clumsy and didn't have any special abilities. Every time he was the first to get hit. If he was lucky once, who could guarantee what would happen next? Maybe the sudden shrinkage of the black 'jade' was an opportunity, an opportunity for Fatso.

  "Then I won't be polite!" Having confirmed the fact, Fatso hastily took over the black 'jade' and placed it in his palm like a treasure, "I'll go customize a gold frame tomorrow!"

  Customize what frame Tianqi doesn't care about, gold frame is also good, isn't there a word "gold inlaid jade"?
