Chapter 137: Please Enter the Coffin

Lu Yue raised his hand and knocked on the door. After receiving an answer, he stepped into the store.

Like all shops dealing with the dead, this place seemed to be shrouded in an inexplicable magnetic field, and an indelible chilly atmosphere permeated the store.

"Boss, do you think my current situation can change my luck?"

The middle-aged boss looked at Lu Yue's body carefully and nodded to signal him to follow.

Lu Yue followed closely behind, looking around curiously all the way, his eyes sweeping over the room full of semi-finished products. When he went deeper into the shop, he was instantly attracted by the looming mahogany coffin.

This pattern vaguely looks like it is made of jujube wood.

Because of that jujube orchard, Lu Yue had some knowledge about jujube trees.

Generally speaking, coffin materials are mostly made of cypress, pine, nanmu, willow, paulownia, etc., while jujube wood is considered a high-end coffin material because of its slow growth cycle.

This coffin is undoubtedly the most valuable one in the store.

"Fill out the form first. The more detailed it is, the better the transfer effect will be." The middle-aged boss knocked on the table, signaling Lu Yue not to look around, and then pulled out a piece of paper from under the table.

Lu Yue retracted his gaze and found that it was a form. It looked similar to a recruitment resume, but the content was more detailed, like checking one's entire family's ancestors.

"Name, gender, date of birth, ethnicity, home address, social relationships, school, physical health, medical history..."

The focus is all on physical health projects.

This form pays great attention to the health of the person whose luck is changing, and also... after all, it is to find a body for the ghost, so good health is of course very important.

Lu Yue pondered for a moment, picked up the pen and began to fill in the form. He wrote "Zhang Yaling" in the name column and filled in male as the gender...

"Your name is Zhang Yaling?" The middle-aged boss frowned when he saw Lu Yue put pen to paper.

"what happened?"

"It sounds like a woman's name."

"Resemble? Why don't I think so?"

The middle-aged boss looked up at Lu Yue, who was nearly 1.80 meters tall, youthful and energetic, and in good health. In the end, he just opened his lips slightly and didn't say anything more. Instead, he picked up his phone and sent a message to the group that there would be new goods tonight.

"Boss, how should I fill in my political status?" Lu Yue's voice sounded again. He raised his head and glanced at the jujube wood coffin.

"For ordinary people, fill in the mass, and for those with special identities, fill in the special identity."

"Oh, I see." Lu Yue nodded, and the tip of the pen rustled on the paper. However, not long after, the sound suddenly stopped.

"Boss, should I fill in my hometown or my current address as my place of origin?"

"Fill in what's on your ID card."

rustling...

"Boss, I lost my phone and my card has just been cancelled. How do I fill in my phone number?"

"If you don't have any, don't fill it in."

rustling...

"Boss, my lease has expired. Can I fill in your address?"

"..."

"Boss, I filled out the form incorrectly, can you give me another one?"

The middle-aged boss who was playing with his phone was a little annoyed by Lu Yue's dozen questions in one minute. He put away his phone, turned his head and stared at Lu Yue, narrowing his eyes and asked, "Are you here to change your luck?"

"Why do you say that?" Lu Yue looked confused.

"From the moment you came in, you kept your eyes on the coffin behind me. You looked at it for more than ten times. Do you think I didn't see it?" the middle-aged boss said bluntly.

Lu Yue raised his eyebrows, put down his pen, and did not deny it. Instead, he answered openly: "Boss, you guessed it right. I am not here to change my luck. I came here to find a body. I am about 1.7 meters tall and have a face like a scholar. I am very recognizable."

"I don't have the body you're looking for." The middle-aged boss' eyes darkened and his tone was unfriendly.

"Boss, don't lie to me, I was introduced by an acquaintance."

These four words are very destructive, especially for some shady industries. For example, if you want to go to some high-end areas with private membership and experience things that only VIP members can experience, you need acquaintances.

"Who?"

"Wu Xiong, by the way, the previous body should be called Zhao Chengcai. He told me in person that he would move the body here, so I came to take a look." Lu Yue looked serious.

"Why didn't you say it at the beginning?" the middle-aged boss asked in a low voice.

It seems that the body of the Commissioner of Demon Suppression is really here.

Lu Yue's expression remained calm, and he said calmly: "Boss, you also know that it is illegal for ghosts to take over human bodies. Do you believe me if I say so right away? And I'm worried that this is a trap. Boss, you would not be conspiring with the ghost in Zhao Chengcai's body to cheat me, extort money, or set up a honey trap. These tricks are old but effective." The middle-aged boss glanced at Lu Yue, as if trying to judge whether Lu Yue was lying, but he did not see any clues from Lu Yue's eyes.

"You are a living person, what do you need a body for?"

"I'm also doing something for a ghost friend of mine." Lu Yue.

"Why didn't your friend come in person?"

"Boss, your temptation is meaningless. If my friend comes and you catch him and kill him, how can he seek justice? Trust is mutual, so I came here tonight to take a look for my friend."

"This body has been reserved by another ghost. Please change to another one."

Lu Yue's mind moved, and it was indeed so... There was actually a dirty trading chain hidden behind this, which was similar to the organ trafficking situation abroad.

"I always think that price and other things can be negotiated."

"What price can you offer?" The middle-aged boss was a little surprised.

Lu Yue slightly opened the backpack and body bag, revealing the bronze axe.

"Boss, please feel this big treasure. How much do you think I'll give you?"

The middle-aged boss took a closer look and his expression suddenly changed: "Natural evil weapon?!"

"Yes, this body can be given to you."

Natural evil weapons are called divine weapons in the circle of extraordinary people. They are more precious than magic weapons and are absolutely priceless.

Faced with the temptation of the natural evil weapon, the middle-aged boss' attitude changed instantly. He led Lu Yue deeper into the shop and came to the jujube wood coffin.

Lu Yue looked at the jujube wood coffin from a close distance.

It was discovered that the length of the coffin was seven feet three inches.

There is a reason for this in folk legends. In ancient times, people often talked about a seven-foot man, which meant that seven feet represented the tallest man, who could stand up to the sky and the earth, so coffins were built that were seven feet and three inches tall. Another saying is that seven feet should be three inches taller in order to correspond to the three souls and seven spirits.

When a corner of the coffin lid was pushed open, Lu Yue saw the unconscious Commissioner of the Taicheng Town Demon Department inside. His expression was distorted, as if he was experiencing a nightmare.

With his powerful perception, Lu Yue discovered that the commissioner was not in any danger for the time being.

"I'm a little curious about how you did it. Of course... if it involves commercial secrets, you don't have to tell me."

Lu Yue asked casually, looking uninterested, but inadvertently revealed a corner of the bronze axe, flashing an alluring bronze light.

The middle-aged boss's eyes twitched slightly. After a moment of silence, he stroked the coffin as if he was touching his wife, and slowly said, "Everyone will die one day. After the living die, in order to keep the body undisturbed, there are coffins. Coffins not only carry the deceased, but also guide the soul to the sky. This is the end of life and the beginning of death."

"I just used some tricks to make this special coffin. When a living person lies in it, the soul in the body will think that they are dead and reject the body. Slowly... the soul will leave on its own, leaving only the body."

"If a ghost lies in the coffin again at this time, it means the beginning of life. The ghost will be reborn like a newborn baby, growing slowly. In this process, it will keep getting closer to the living people whose souls and bodies are repelled, absorbing the smell of scattered souls to cover up its identity as a ghost."

At this point, the middle-aged boss raised a sinister smile: "When the time is right and the yin and yang are reversed, the ghost will be able to successfully enter the body of a living person."

Lu Yue felt his scalp tingling slightly.

This middle-aged boss is really a talented person.

He can even think of such a cruel method.

"I have another question. How safe is it to possess someone else's body? After all, this body belongs to the Demon Suppression Division. What if I disappear for a long time and the Demon Suppression Division becomes suspicious?"

"Of course I know this. Give me one night and I can let his soul leave on its own. Then you can ask your friend to come over. I will use some special methods to let your friend quickly take over his body."

"It's normal to lose contact for a few days while handling supernatural incidents. There are no people from the Demon Suppression Division in Mucheng. Wait until the neighboring Taicheng sends someone over. The timing is just right. After that, your friend can apply to stay in Mucheng permanently to avoid dealing with the people from the Demon Suppression Division..."

The boss is a businessman.

Even the follow-up situation has been considered.

"By the way." The middle-aged boss suddenly changed the subject, "When will your ghost friend come over, and when will this natural evil weapon be delivered?"

"Boss, looking at the look in your eyes, I now feel that I've been at a loss. It's not worth it to exchange the natural evil weapon for this body." Lu Yue was like a seller who had suddenly come to his senses and wanted to raise the price.

"What do you mean?" the middle-aged boss asked in an unhappy tone.

"What I mean is that this body is not enough. I'm at a loss. I need to add another one. My ghost friend can change it when he gets tired of living here."

The middle-aged boss hesitated for a moment, then nodded and agreed, "Natural evil weapons are indeed precious. Just tell me what body you want, and I'll find it for you."

"What kind of body can be found?" Lu Yue was surprised.

"of course."

"Boss, I see you are in good health, so please lie in the coffin." Lu Yue said seriously.
