The Psychic Resurrection: Riding the Mirage

Hou Qingxu didn't realize at all that his brain was not as flexible as before and that Ning Yun had lost contact. The first thing he thought of was that Ning Yun deliberately let go.

So now Hou Qingxu is very angry, thinking about how to slap him in the face and get revenge in the future.

However, his face did not show much emotion. He smiled politely and introduced someone to the surrounding guests: "Everyone, this is Master Bai Yangbai."

"Hey, Master Bai is willing to come to a place like this to show his respect. It's really a shining light."

"I have heard the name of Master many times before. I never expected that I would be able to meet him this time through Brother Hou. I am extremely honored."

The auction venue was designed very fashionably. In a corner of the hall, Hou Qingxu was chatting with some acquaintances as usual.

But this time, there was a middle-aged man with half-white hair sitting opposite them. This man had a ruddy complexion and an extraordinary bearing. He was wearing a black Tang suit. In the face of everyone's politeness, he just nodded slightly and said in a magnetic voice: "Everyone, if you want to say that I am honored, it should be me. I can return to China smoothly this time and meet some old friends. I would like to thank Young Master Hou for being the host."

"Haha, Master Bai is so polite!"

They had heard about this Bai Yang, but they didn't expect that Hou Qingxu would invite this person to such an occasion.

It turns out that Bai Yang is a very famous fortune teller. Although there are rumors that he is actually a liar, it is said that some celebrities and government officials have close contacts with him.

This person seems to have a few tricks and a wide network of contacts. He was originally a powerful figure in the country, but unfortunately he became a little drifting in the past few years. He did some taboo things in the capital and fled overnight to seek refuge abroad.

People like this will never have a bad life no matter where they go, and now they are mixed up with Hou Qingxu for some unknown reason.

The people present are not fools. If Bai Yang is still the glorious master in the past, they will naturally be willing to rush to curry favor with him, but now the ingredients of Bai Yang are unknown, and if he gets involved rashly, he may cause trouble. They are just looking at Hou Qingxu's face. Only then was he willing to say hello briefly.

Several people present chatted with each other, but there was no silence. At this time, someone suddenly said: "I have long heard that Master Bai is good at deduction. He is always successful in identifying treasures and gambling stones, and he has never made a miscalculation."

"It's all exaggeration by my Taoist friends. How can I have such great ability." Bai Yang said modestly: "In the early years, I was only a half-hearted person. Fortunately, I later became a disciple of Buddhism..."

"Okay, it's almost time, the auction is about to begin."

Hou Qingxu interrupted what Bai Yang was about to blurt out.

Bai Yang's complexion changed slightly, but he didn't say anything after all.

This auction is particularly important to Hou Qingxu, and he specially found Bai Yang for a purpose.

"Mr. Bai, it's up to you this time." He whispered. Hou Qingxu knew that Bai Yang was not as simple as outsiders thought. He was not a liar, and he was probably also a ghost controller.

"Don't worry, I will do my best on this matter." Bai Yang is very respectful to Hou Qingxu, not only because he is generous, but he can also provide what Bai Yang urgently needs and solve the urgent need.

The auction was held in a conference room-like room inside the club. It was a bit narrow compared to the hall outside, but no one cared. They all understood that it was for safety and confidentiality.

Boom——

With a crisp bell ringing, everyone's eyes focused on the auction stage, and the originally slightly dim light also brightened.

The host came on stage and after a simple opening remarks, he briefly introduced the auction items.

"Mr. Hou, what exactly is it that you want me to look for?" Bai Yang sat next to Hou Qingxu, leaned over and asked softly.

"To be honest, I don't know much about it. All in all, it is a special item, and the specific situation is unknown. But when it appears, Master Bai should be able to see some clues based on his ability." Hou Qingxu said distressedly, this time the goal is quite Trouble, he couldn't explain clearly, so he could only speak vaguely.

"I see." Bai Yang complained crazily in his heart. This was too difficult. Could it be that he had to appraise every auction item? It will definitely tire him out!

But as a veteran, Bai Yang will not show timidity, pretending to be calm and assuming a superior attitude.

The auction went very quickly, and the exhibits were bought one after another. This kind of underground auction was held by a powerful force, and all the treasures were on display.

Hou Qingxu sat still. Ever since he came into contact with the supernatural, ordinary antiques, cultural relics and jewelry collections had almost no appeal to him.

His target is supernatural objects.

After waiting for a long time, at this moment, the host of the auction smiled and announced that the next auction item was the last one.

"This collection is very mysterious. It was dug out from an ancient tomb. Please take a look. It is this mask. Its shape is very strange. According to expert speculation, this should be a ritual vessel used for sacrifice. It is suspected to have magical power. …”

On the exhibition stand, a tattered mask was placed in a tempered glass box. The host explained it passionately, but everyone present understood that it was the stolen goods brought by tomb robbers.

At this moment, Bai Yang suddenly clenched his fists. A dark blue light appeared in his pupils. He glanced at the strange mask and couldn't help but whisper: "It's that thing!"

Hearing this, Hou Qingxu sat up straight in an instant. Bai Yang had been silent just now and was sitting there very calmly. Now the two people's actions are very eye-catching.

"Mr. Bai, what did you figure out?" Hou Qingxu asked hurriedly.

"I think what you are looking for should be that mask." Bai Yang said firmly.

"Master, are you sure?"

"I am sure, this batch of auction items are very ordinary, only the mask exudes an indescribable breath." Bai Yang's mouth curled up a smile. It was the last auction item, and it was the most special one. Are there any other options?

Hou Qingxu nodded. Since Bai Yang said so, his brain didn't notice the problem, so it should be accurate. In fact, he didn't know Bai Yang. It was someone who called him and asked him to contact Bai Yang.

He didn't know anything else, but since the other party asked him to cooperate, he didn't bother to care. Now he doesn't like to use his brain more and more.

"The starting price of this mask is 500,000..." The voice of the host came.

"One million." Hou Qingxu directly raised the card and raised the price in one breath, indicating his attitude and hinting others not to compete with him.

His doing so did work. Some people knew his identity and would not snatch a mask from him.

But at this moment, another man's voice interrupted.

"Two million."

What? !

Someone actually raised the price so fiercely, was he deliberately competing with me? Hou Qingxu frowned, stared, and his eyes were sharp. He turned around to see who was so disrespectful to him.

"Who is that?" He saw a tall man in formal clothes. He looked very ordinary, with a common face with almost no characteristics.

"I don't know, I haven't seen him before. I guess he is from another place." A young man sitting next to Hou Qingxu said. He was Hou Qingxu's friend and had some friendship with the organizer of this auction, so he knew a lot of information and answered Hou Qingxu.

Hou Qingxu sneered. Since he was not a big shot, he could be as arrogant as he wanted: "Two million and one hundred thousand."

As soon as he finished speaking, the man who raised the price said coldly: "Three million."

OK, OK, what a courage! This is really going to confront me head-on! Hou Qingxu still sneered evilly: "Four million."

He didn't care about this little money, but he couldn't lose face!

"Five million." The strange man hesitated for a moment, but still followed up.

"Six million." Hou Qingxu calmly raised the price.

The two started a fierce competition, and in the end Hou Qingxu was better. He bought the mask with a huge sum of 10 million, and at the same time, he let everyone present watch a good show.

The strange man who raised the price stood up gloomily and turned away.

The auction ended, and Hou Qingxu asked for the auction items to be handed over on the spot.

Suddenly, there was a click, and the lights on the scene suddenly went out. It should be that the power supply circuit was cut off.

"What's going on!"

Many people took out their mobile phones, and the screen light illuminated the surroundings.

The next moment, a cry of pain sounded, and the host of the auction was knocked to the ground with great force.

Plop——

With a dull thud, it seemed that something heavy was overturned to the ground. At the same time, an unclear black shadow rushed out, knocked over several people in succession, and ran towards the exit.

"Stop him, he took away the auction item, the last mask!" The host lying on the ground roared with all his might.

Only then did everyone realize that someone dared to break into the venue and steal things?

This is too bold!

The door was violently destroyed, and the person who took the mask fled quickly.

Both Hou Qingxu and Bai Yang were shocked, and then Hou Qingxu was also angry. He was already angry, and now he didn't want to continue to endure it, so he immediately urged the evil spirit in his body.

The defense of the underground auction venue was originally very tight, but at this moment it seemed to be useless. No one could stop the mysterious robber. The security guards tried their best to stop him, but they were knocked down one by one, and they were all seriously injured. Some people even vomited blood and were about to die.

The robber ran fast, and he cut off the power supply, but there should be backup power and backup cameras in this occasion, so he didn't have much time to escape.

The security team was left behind by him, and then he didn't spend much effort to break through the chaos and get away smoothly. He jumped lightly and jumped onto a building at a nearby intersection. He jumped and ran between buildings like parkour.

This scene was undoubtedly very eye-catching.

The nearby area was a large green belt, and the suburbs were outside. There were not too many obstacles, so he could hide. It was not easy to find him.

The auction quickly gathered people, but because the auction was not legal and involved gray interests, they did not dare to call the police and could only catch him themselves.

After a while, the auction venue was in turmoil. There were many forces attached to this place. People from all walks of life attacked one after another, intending to catch the thief and torture him severely!

Hou Qingxu also chased him with a cold face. He had already noticed that the person who snatched the mask was the stranger who had just bid with him at the auction.

Hou Qingxu was a ghost rider after all. Once he made a move, the stranger could not resist at all and died.

After searching his body, Hou Qingxu could not find the mask. He was furious: "He has accomplices!"

At this moment, in the opposite direction, two men in black were holding masks, pretending to be innocent passers-by, and left leisurely.

"Those people have been led away, but they should find out the truth soon. Let's leave here as soon as possible..." said one of the tall men.

The other woman nodded: "You are right. Time is running out. Since the mask has been snatched, we don't have to worry about other things for the time being."

"But the superiors have issued a new task temporarily, saying that a crucial ghost puzzle has been found and we need to investigate."

The tall man hesitated for a moment and said slowly: "Don't worry about it. We are not strong enough and there is no need to take risks. It is stupid to contact rashly. Anyway, we have completed the mask mission. Let's send it back first."

The woman could only agree.

...

When Hu Jiu was looking for the ghost puzzle according to his intuition, the street suddenly became chaotic. It sounded like he was catching a thief.

He didn't want to get involved in this unexpected incident at all, but He Ming had a problem.

He Ming was transferred to the capital to serve as a mobile ghost driver, going wherever he was needed.

Now he regretted it. He originally planned to seek asylum in Beijing, but he was directly held up by moral kidnapping. He has been busy almost every day these days, and his body can no longer bear it.

"There are too many supernatural events in Beijing." He Ming complained. Although they were harmless and low-level supernatural events, it stands to reason that how could a country's capital be haunted so frequently?

He Ming fell into a dilemma. He was held up to an incredible height by his own sense of morality and the malicious praise of people around him. He could not ask for more remuneration, otherwise he would face the "disappointed" eyes of everyone.

Some people seem to think that doctors, policemen, firefighters and other professions must be hard-working, not rich, and cannot ask for "remuneration" full of copper smell. They can only work hard and dedicate themselves like an old ox.

He Ming was afraid that he would be exhausted to death, but no one was willing to help him. At this time, Shen Jiliang from the Research Department reached out to him, but this came at a price.

He Ming seriously considered whether to join the Research Department. After all, he had the cheating artifact, Human Skin Paper, and maybe he could be immune to control.

But later, Fu Youhua showed up in time, persuaded Shen Jiliang to leave, and comforted He Ming.

To be honest, He Ming's disappointment with the headquarters has been accumulating recently...
