Wang Kaixuan said anxiously: "Boss, you are so generous, let him go."

The boss snorted: "Let him go? Sure, pay back the money he owes, 100,000 yuan, not a penny less!"

Huo Jilin said: "Boss, can you give me a few days' grace?"

The boss slammed the table and roared: "Grace? No way! If you don't pay the money today, don't even think about taking him away!"

The three of them walked out of the casino helplessly and discussed countermeasures.

Wang Kaixuan said: "What can we do? Where can we get so much money?"

Hu Bayi pondered for a moment and said: "It seems that we can only find a way to raise money first."

Huo Jilin said: "But we are about to set out to investigate the shovel. This delay..."

Hu Bayi said: "Liu Feishou is our friend after all, we can't ignore him."

Wang Kaixuan said: "Then let's split up and borrow money."

So, the three of them started running around to borrow money.

Hu Bayi found a friend from the past and persuaded him to borrow 20,000 yuan.

Wang Kaixuan returned home, rummaged through boxes and cabinets, and took out all his savings, but only had more than 10,000 yuan.

Huo Jilin went to ask some acquaintances for help, and scraped together more than 20,000 yuan.

The three of them came to the casino again.

Hu Bayi put the money on the table and said, "Boss, this is the 60,000 yuan we have collected. Pay back part of it first, and we will find a way to pay the rest."

The boss looked at the money and said, "60,000? It's still a long way to go!"

Wang Kaixuan said, "Boss, please be kind and release the person first. We will pay back the rest as soon as possible."

The boss hesitated and said, "Okay, since you are so sincere, I will release the person first, but you must pay back the rest within a month."

Liu Feishou was released and looked at the three people with a guilty face.

Huo Jilin said, "You just know how to cause trouble for us."

Liu Feishou lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry, brothers, I was confused for a moment."

Hu Bayi said, "Okay, let's not talk about this for now. We still have business to do."

Liu Feishou asked, "What business?"

Wang Kaixuan told him about the shovel.

Liu Feishou said, "Then what are we waiting for, let's go quickly."

Hu Bayi said, "No, we still owe money to the casino, and we must pay it back first."

Liu Feishou said, "I'll work with you to find a solution."

In the following days, the four of them continued to study the shovel while trying to make money to pay off their debts.

One day, Liu Feishou came back excitedly and said, "I heard a piece of news that a rich businessman is collecting antiques. We can sell the shovel to him."

Hu Bayi said, "No, the origin of this shovel has not been figured out yet, so it can't be sold."

Wang Kaixuan said, "But we are in urgent need of money now."

Huo Jilin said, "Think of other ways."

Just when they were in a state of panic, a mysterious man appeared.

The mysterious man found them and said, "I can help you pay back the money to the casino, but you have to do something for me."

Hu Bayi looked at the mysterious man warily and asked, "What is it?"

The mysterious man said, "Follow me, you will know when you get there."

The four looked at each other, not knowing whether they should believe this mysterious man.

Liu Feishou said, "Who cares? Let's get through the difficulties first."

So, the four followed the mysterious man.

The mysterious man took them to a remote place, pointed to an old house, and said, "There is a treasure in this house. If you help me get it, the debt will be written off."

Hu Bayi said, "What dangers are there in this house?"

The mysterious man smiled and said, "You have to explore it yourself."

After that, the mysterious man turned and left.

The four looked at the house in front of them, feeling uneasy...

Boom!

As they walked into the house, the four people just stepped into the gate, and suddenly the ground shook violently.

"Oh no, there's an earthquake!" Wang Kaixuan shouted.

Everyone panicked and looked for a place to hide.

Hu Bayi shouted, "Don't panic, lean against the corner!"

Just then, there was a loud "boom" and the house began to collapse. Bricks and rubble fell one after another, raising dust all over the sky.

Huo Jilin was hit on the shoulder by a fallen wooden board, and he gasped in pain.

Liu Feishou dodged the falling rocks and shouted, "What's going on?"

The shaking lasted for a while and finally subsided. The four people crawled out of the ruins covered in dust.

"Cough cough cough..." Wang Kaixuan coughed and waved the dust in front of him.

When the dust settled, they were surprised to find that in the ruins, there was an extremely strange jade hairpin, emitting a mysterious light.

"Wow, this jade hairpin looks priceless!" Liu Feishou's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but reach out to take it.

Hu Bayi quickly stopped him: "Be careful, don't move!"

Liu Feishou retracted his hand and asked: "Old Hu, this won't be dangerous, right?"

Hu Bayi frowned, carefully observed the jade hairpin, and said: "This thing appears here, it's too strange, maybe there is some mechanism trap."

Huo Jilin said: "Then what should we do? Just leave it alone?"

Wang Kaixuan said: "Such a good treasure, it's a waste not to take it!"

Hu Bayi thought for a moment and said: "First, see if there are any clues around to find out the origin of this jade hairpin."

The four began to search carefully in the ruins.

"Hey, look, there is a stone tablet here." Liu Feishou shouted.

Everyone gathered around and saw some strange words engraved on the stone tablet.

Huo Jilin said, "This seems to be an ancient text, I can't understand it."

Hu Bayi stared at the stone tablet for a while and said, "I have seen similar text in an ancient book, which seems to be telling a story about a curse."

Wang Kaixuan said nervously, "Curse? Then this jade hairpin is not cursed, right?"

Hu Bayi shook his head, "Not sure yet, but we have to be careful."

Just then, the jade hairpin suddenly flashed a strong light, and the atmosphere around became more and more weird.

"This... what's going on?" Liu Feishou stepped back in fear.

Suddenly, a gloomy voice sounded in their ears: "You took things you shouldn't have taken, and you will die here..."

Wang Kaixuan was so scared that his face turned pale: "Who? Who is talking?"

Hu Bayi looked around vigilantly: "Everyone be careful, there may be something evil."

At this time, a figure walked out of the darkness, and the face could not be seen clearly, only a pair of eyes emitting red light could be seen.

"You have entered the forbidden area and disturbed the sleeping soul." The figure said.

Huo Jilin summoned up his courage and said, "We have no intention of offending you. We just happened to come here."

The figure sneered, "Coincidence? No one can escape the arrangement of fate."

Hu Bayi said, "Who are you? What do you want to do?"
