Record of Yin and Yang

For some people, life can indeed be bought in exchange for money. Spending money is either to avoid one's own crimes in order to continue stealing life, or to kill other people's lives with money.

The life-buying money that Gu Jiu mentioned here belongs to the former. A more direct and secure method is to use money and use evil means as a medium to buy other people's lives and extend their lives for themselves or others.Different from the method they tracked before, which was to steal other people's anger and drink other people's blood to renew their lives, the method of paying for life here is more sinister.Because the number of lives bought by this method has an exchange ratio, ten years for one year.In other words, someone else's ten years of life can be exchanged for his one year.

For example, Zhu Caiyun, according to Gu Jiu's fortune telling, she can live to be seventy years old, and now she is only in her thirties, if she dies this time, she will lose thirty years of life in one fell swoop.It took only three years to exchange the life of these thirty years to someone else.

Zhong Facai was already coughing up blood, and his condition was definitely not serious. His life was short, and Zhu Caiyun's life was abnormal again. What happened in the middle is not difficult to guess.

When Zhong Kaiji heard that money can buy life, he looked very ugly.

Gu Jiu looked at his expression and asked, "Has your wife ever picked up unowned money on the road?"

Zhong Kaiji nodded with a sad expression, "I picked it up once."

"Have you run out of money?"

"That was half a year ago, and the money has already been spent."

As Zhong Kaiji spoke, he finally connected the time of picking up money with the time of his wife's illness, and boundless anger spread in his deep pain.

He was unlucky. Half a year ago in late spring and early summer, he was working outside while wearing straw sandals, and accidentally injured his toe, which was bleeding profusely.At that time, his family really didn't have any savings, and he didn't have any money to take medicine. Zhong Kaiji could only use a simple method, grab a handful of plant ashes to stop the bleeding, and then let go. He has a high fever.His wife, Zhu Caiyun, was busy with his illness, looking for people to borrow money.He was groggy at that time, and he only knew that one day his wife went out and came back with a happy face, followed by a doctor.

After the doctor left, Zhong Kaiji asked his wife which friend received the money and how much he borrowed.

Zhu Caiyun took out a money bag and said that she picked it up on the way to find someone to borrow money.The situation at home made Zhu Caiyun unable to act without hesitation in picking up money. When she opened the purse and saw that it was full of silver, she only thought that her husband was saved, so she turned around and went straight to the town, and invited a doctor go home.

That bag of silver was 20 taels, and Zhong Kaiji spent six or seven taels to see a doctor, and the rest was kept for expenses at home, and the rest was used by Zhong Kaiji to do business, but just like Gu Jiu said, he obviously Every time I look at an opportunity, but I always miss it. Even if it barely improves, there will be one or another reason, which will cause the business to fail. In the end, the money will be lost again, and Zhong Kaiji can only work hard again. live.

Afterwards, his wife fell ill suddenly, and his condition became more and more serious. They had no money to buy good medicine, so they could only use cheap medicinal materials to make ends meet slowly.

Speaking of these things, Zhong Kaiji could still recall the sense of powerlessness he felt at that time.

Gu Jiu and Shao Yi looked at Zhong Kaiji sympathetically. It was fine if their luck was stolen. If the thief had treated him better, maybe Zhong Kaiji would not feel so uncomfortable in his heart, but they still wanted to In plotting to take Zhu Caiyun's life, this Zhong made a fortune, grabbed Zhong Kaiji's family's neck and drank blood, and even put on an attitude of giving, how annoying.

With a heavy heart and anger spreading in his eyes, Zhong Kaiji returned home, the first thing he did was to go to his room to see Zhu Caiyun.

Zhu Caiyun was sleeping, she was too thin, and because her body was covered with a heavy quilt, her chest didn't rise or fall at all.Zhong Kaiji checked his wife's breath to make sure she was still alive before waking him up.

Due to her physical discomfort, Zhu Caiyun also did not sleep peacefully. She opened her dull eyes and said weakly, "Sir, are you back?"

Zhong Kaiji forced a smile at her, and asked Zhu Caiyun, "Where's the money bag you picked up earlier? I'll show it to the two priests."

Zhu Caiyun didn't know why they were looking at the purse, so she just pointed to the cabinet next to it, "It's at the bottom."

Zhong Kaiji rummaged through the cabinet for a while, found a money bag with several copper coins in it, and handed it to Gu Jiu together.

"This is the money bag." Zhong Kaiji said, the material of the money bag is ordinary, with patterns embroidered on it.After the money was used up, Zhong Kaiji was not willing to throw away the money bag, and kept it at home for Zhu Caiyun to use.

Gu Jiu took it and looked at it with Shao Yi for a while. Gu Jiu turned around and asked Zhu Caiyun, "Sister-in-law Zhong, did you find anything unusual when you picked up this purse that day? For example, your finger was stabbed or something."

Zhu Caiyun looked puzzled, and noticed that her husband's expression was serious, and her own face changed accordingly. She thought about it for a while, and said: "When I picked up this money bag, there was a needle stuck in it. I was too excited and didn't pay attention. The finger was pricked to see the thin needle inserted in it."

If a finger is pricked by a needle, the blood may not flow much, but after that Zhu Caiyun has to pick up the money bag and open it to check. After a while, it is enough for Zhu Caiyun's blood to stain the money bag.

Gu Jiu shook his head and sighed, and with Zhong Kaiji's nervous expression, he said, "This money bag is not an ordinary pattern, it is a spell, a kind of contract, using the blood of the caster as a guide, and using the spell As a medium, the blood of the cursed person will be used to seal the seal, and this contract will be fulfilled." Gu Jiu brought the purse to his nose and smelled it, frowned slightly, and continued: "This embroidery thread is dark red. It is this thread that is dyed with the blood of the caster."

In other words, no matter whether Zhu Caiyun did it on purpose or not, as long as the spell has her blood on it, the contract can be fulfilled.Just like profiteers cheating people, the contract is listed, and the profiteer has signed his name, but there are actually many traps hidden in the contract, but you don't know it, and then you sign your name, although you are in The name that I signed without knowing it, but the contract is completed, with legal effects, and you can't just say "I don't know".

What's more, they have already spent all their money.

"Then what should we do? Can we return the money?" Zhong Kaiji looked at his wife's pale face and asked anxiously.

Gu Jiudao: "You have already used the money, and this contract has been in effect for half a year. When Sister Zhong passes away, the contract ends and the life exchange is successful. Even if the money is paid back, Sister Zhong's situation cannot be changed."

Zhong Kaiji felt weak all over, and looked sadly at his wife with red eyes, "Then, is there really no way out?"

Gu Jiu rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "It's not that there is no room for change. Just 20 Liang wants to buy someone's life, and the person who buys life is too stingy."

Here we all pay attention to the people not to be promoted, and the officials not to be held accountable.Officials in Gu Jiu's business are actually the Dao of Heaven.When a contract involving cause and effect is completed, regardless of whether it is fair or not, as long as neither party is held accountable, the Dao of Heaven does not have to come out and say, ah, there is something wrong with this contract and it does not agree, it will only be established by default.But if one party finds something wrong, they can protest to Tiandao, and Tiandao will still pay attention.

Zhong Kaiji relaxed all over, and every time he borrowed money from Zhong Facai, it was never more than five liang. The children in the family also complained that Zhong Facai was stingy.

But thinking of such a stingy Zhong Facai who wanted to buy the rest of his wife's life with only 20 taels, and the contempt for his family's life, when Zhong Facai shuddered, his heart was more angry.

Gu Jiu said to Zhong Kaiji: "Even if the matter of your luck being stolen is solved for you now, your luck will not improve immediately." After all, bad luck has been entangled for many years, and it still has some impact on Zhong Kaiji , it will take a while for his luck to completely return to himself.In order to prevent Zhong Kaiji from being entangled by bad luck in the past two days, Gu Jiu took out a safety talisman for Zhong Kaiji to carry with him, and handed him a few empty talismans, "You don't need to prepare other things, you just need to run Zhong Facai's home, take some of his blood for use, remember to use these empty talismans."

It was about his wife's life, Zhong Kaiji carefully took all the things, and to Gu Jiu and Shao Yi, he would also promise to Zhu Caiyun himself: "I will get it."

But before that, Gu Jiu still let Zhong Kaiji and his wife have a psychological preparation, "This contract has a [-]% chance of being broken, but because you spent money, even if the contract is broken, it will end at the end of Sister-in-law Zhong's lifespan." There are still some hindrances, at least five or six years of life will be lost."

Zhong Kaiji was sad and thankful: "It's already very good."

From the conversation just now, Zhu Caiyun already knew the strangeness of her illness.At this time, tears filled her eyes, her face showed gratitude, as long as things can be done, even if she lived five or six years less in the end, it would be better than dying now.

It's not too late to break the curse, Zhong Kaiji went out with his things at the moment.

Zhong Kaiji went alone, and he went straight to Zhong Facai's mansion full of anger and aggression. When he arrived at the door, he had calmed down, just like when he came to borrow money before, with a look of shame and embarrassment on his face. A look of embarrassment knocked on the door.

Seeing Zhong Kaiji coming again, the woman guarding the door ridiculed him, opened the door with her mouth curled up, and let Zhong Kaiji in.Zhong Kaiji didn't show it on the surface, but sneered in his heart.Let's bear with it for now, wait until the family matters are resolved, and see how he takes revenge on these people.

Zhong Facai didn't let go of any opportunity to taunt him, so Zhong Kaiji successfully met Zhong Facai. Zhong Facai wanted to taunt Zhong Kaiji when he opened his mouth, but he didn't want Zhong Kaiji to rush in front of him. His nose fell off.

Zhong Facai was smashed until his eyes were filled with gold stars, his tears were streaming down his face, he cursed, his pampered body didn't have much strength, and he was still sick, how could he get rid of Zhong Kaiji who worked hard all day?When those servants came up, they were all kicked away by Zhong Kaiji.

Zhong Kaiji roughly wiped the empty talisman against Zhong Facai's bloody nose, and when he felt that the blood was not enough, he punched Zhong Facai a few more times until the empty talisman was stained red with blood. Only then did Zhong Kaiji throw Zhong Facai on the ground in satisfaction, kicked him a few times before leaving to relieve his anger, and then escaped from the siege of a group of servants who had heard the movement, and when he went out, he met someone with his hand stretched out. The lady guarding the door slapped her, slapped her around several times, and finally fell to the ground. The lady stared at Zhong Kaiji's running back in disbelief, screaming for a long time before finally rushing out of her throat .

"It's the other way around!"
