What do you mean by saying that the corpses I sew are all ominous creatures?

I turned my head slightly and looked in the direction of the sound.

Suddenly, Li Qing pulled out three old copper coins.

The copper coin, its surface bearing the dark green patina of time, was being tossed and played with by his slender fingers.

At this moment, he leaned against the door of a construction vehicle, his posture appearing somewhat nonchalant, but a serious glint shone in his eyes.

The atmosphere instantly relaxed as soon as he said that.

Boss Lei tightened his grip on my hand slightly, a hint of joy flashing in his eyes.

Boss Wang let out a long breath, as if he were completely exhausted.

I pulled my hand away, turned my head, and glanced at Li Qing.

I wasn't displeased at his sudden offer to take on this multi-million dollar commission; I was just slightly surprised.

However, I did not refute it.

Li Qing may seem unserious at times, but when it comes to serious matters, he always has an extremely precise sense of propriety.

Since he dared to take on this job, it means he already has a plan in mind.

"That's great! That's really great!"

Mr. Wang rubbed his hands together excitedly and eagerly stepped forward to ask:

"Master Li, Master Chen, what do we need to prepare next?"

Black dog blood, cinnabar, or some other magical artifact?

"As long as you two ask, I, Old Wang, will turn Jiangcheng upside down and get everything you need!"

Seeing Boss Wang's eagerness to get started, Li Qing calmly waved his hand.

"Prepare my ass for black dog blood."

Li Qing rolled her eyes and said without any politeness.

"That old Taoist priest just spilled a bowl of dog's blood, almost killing you all. Didn't you think that was exciting enough?"

Mr. Wang was speechless for a moment, and could only awkwardly force a smile, not daring to say another word.

Li Qing's joking expression vanished. He pointed to the foundation pit in the distance, his tone becoming serious.

"The feng shui energy field down here is completely messed up."

The evil spirit was dispersed, and its outward resentment is gone.

Li Qing paused for a moment, then continued.

"However, the real person is still buried in the ground."

We don't even know what it is or what form it takes yet. Preparing those magical artifacts and materials now is just a waste of time and effort.

It might even backfire.

"So...so what do you mean?"

Boss Wang cautiously probed.

"Tomorrow during the day."

Li Qing held up one finger, her tone crisp and decisive.

"Tomorrow at noon, the yang energy will be at its peak."

Call over all your bold and resilient construction teams, get them in the excavators, and dig that foundation pit right there.

First, we need to dig the main object out of the ground and let it see the light of day before we decide what to do next.

Upon hearing that ordinary workers were to be sent to dig the foundation pit from which the terrifying monster had just emerged, Boss Wang's face paled instantly, and he seemed hesitant to speak.

"Master Li, this... it's not that I don't trust you."

Mr. Wang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and stammered.

"As you may already know, this is not the first time an accident has happened at this construction site."

What's down there so eerie? What if some monster pops up while we're digging?

If those workers get hurt, and things blow up, I really won't be able to handle it.

His concerns are perfectly normal.

After all, what just happened was too horrifying. If an ordinary person encountered something like that, they would run away as fast as they could. Who would dare to drive an excavator up there to start digging?

"Don't worry, I have my reasons for letting you dig."

Li Qing patted his chest and said confidently.

"Tomorrow at noon, I will personally bring the compass here to oversee things."

With me watching over things, as long as they don't touch anything they shouldn't, I guarantee your workers won't lose a single hair.

Just relax and arrange the manpower.

Hearing Li Qing's resounding guarantee, Boss Wang felt reassured, and his expression softened.

"Alright! With Master Li's words, I, Old Wang, will go all out!"

Tomorrow at noon, I will personally bring the best construction team to dig!

Boss Wang gritted his teeth and nodded heavily.

Boss Lei watched as the matter was finalized and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

He expressed his gratitude to us again and promised to transfer the promised five million to Jin Wanliang's account first thing tomorrow morning.

Now that the matter has been settled, there is no need for us to stay at the construction site any longer.

After briefly saying goodbye to Boss Lei and Boss Wang, the three of us turned and walked out of the construction site gate.

Jin Wanliang's black Mercedes-Benz was parked on the side of the road.

He nimbly climbed into the driver's seat and started the car.

Li Qing and I opened the back door and got in.

As the vehicle smoothly drove away from the gloomy suburban construction site, the atmosphere inside the car completely relaxed.

Outside the car window, the street scenes of Jiangcheng at night rushed past.

The dim yellow light of the streetlights occasionally swept across the carriage, illuminating Li Qing's slightly tired but still somewhat excited face.

About half an hour later, the car came to a steady stop at the entrance of the old street alley.

We got off the bus and walked across the familiar bluestone path back to Tingyuxuan.

Pushing open the door on the third floor, a familiar aroma of aged tangerine peel wafted out, instantly easing any tension in my nerves.

Jin Wanliang is a man who can't sit still.

As soon as he entered, he went straight to the tea tray and began to boil water and wash the tea.

"Making money today was like riding a roller coaster, so exciting!"

Jin Wanliang sighed with a smile as he fiddled with the tea set.

"However, ten million! Boss Lei is indeed generous."

It seems he was truly stunned by Brother Chen's remark.

I walked to the large rosewood sofa in the center of the hall and sat down comfortably.

Li Qing, like a spineless person, slumped onto the single sofa opposite me and casually picked up an apple from the coffee table and started eating it.

When Jin Wanliang brought over the brewed tea, I picked up the teacup, gently blew on the steam rising from it, and took a small sip.

Then, I put down my teacup, looked up, and saw Li Qing eating an apple.

"Tell me, how did you suddenly decide to take on that job at the construction site?"

I asked slowly and deliberately.

I know Li Qing. Although he seems unreliable, he is definitely not the kind of person who can't resist money.

He must have his reasons for taking the initiative.

Li Qing swallowed the apple in his mouth, casually threw the core into the trash can, and then took out a tissue to wipe his hands.

"That's easy."

Li Qing chuckled, leaned forward slightly, and looked at me as he spoke.

"I saw you standing there for a long time without saying anything, and I knew you were struggling with something."

Ten million? Who wouldn't be envious?

But the yin energy underground is indeed a bit eerie; you're probably calculating whether this deal is worthwhile.
