Mad Dragon gets out of prison and marries a beautiful CEO.

Chapter 73

Xiaoyu nodded, not understanding why he asked that question.

Chen Li asked her to find the tools to pry up the marble floor. After the 80*80 floor was lifted up, a cold and damp smell rushed out.

Xiaoyu screamed in fright, fell backward with a thud, and turned deathly pale.

Inside the circular pit stands a bronze statue of a ram's head, the very one rumored to be worth hundreds of millions.

After collector Yang Zhongxiang passed away, his family searched the place thoroughly but couldn't find him. They never expected to find him here.

Chen Li carried out a bronze statue that was over a foot tall. It was wrapped with a red rope with copper coins strung on it. The copper coins were rusty, but the rope was not rotten, so it had probably been buried not long ago.

Below the base is a talisman wrapped in oiled paper, which reads "Exorcise evil spirits and protect the home, with no taboos."

Xiaoyu wasn't afraid of the bronze statue with the ram's head, nor the red rope with copper coins on it. A pale, terrifying face appeared, then vanished without a trace in an instant.

She calmed down a little after Chen Li had moved everything out of the circular pit.

"Why did the old man hide the thing in here?"

Xiaoyu asked curiously.

Chen Li used a flashlight to examine the bronze ram's head statue closely and replied:

"It's written very clearly on the talisman. This old man felt there was something ghostly about it, so he learned some secret method to ward off evil spirits from somewhere, dug a hole and buried the thing inside."

He sensed something within it through his spiritual power.

These things don't have much effect on the spirit-gathering array, nor do they have any effect on protecting the house; they only serve to comfort one's mind.

However, he did acquire a treasure, but whether it's worth hundreds of millions still needs to be appraised by an expert.

"When I lifted the floorboards just now, I clearly saw a pale,狰狞 (zhengning - ferocious/hideous) face..."

Xiaoyu mustered her courage and said.

"It's an illusion."

Chen Li put the stone slab back in its original position, clapped his hands, and explained:

"Mr. Yang Zhongxiang's vision of the deceased family of three was also a hallucination, caused by self-psychological suggestion. Just don't take it to heart."

He gave this explanation because he didn't want to scare her.

In reality, evil magical artifacts were buried beneath the soil in the four directions surrounding the villa, creating a deceptive illusion.

If ordinary people are affected by the spirit-gathering array for a long time, their nerves will weaken, their fears will be magnified, and they will gradually experience all sorts of terrifying illusions based on their thoughts.

in other words.

Yang Zhongxiang scared himself to death.

As for the deaths of Yang Qi and his son, a family of three, it may have been an accident, or it may have been caused by someone.

Xiaoyu murmured in reply:

"Hallucination...hallucinations are scary enough. Don't worry, Mr. Chen, I won't tell anyone about you digging up the bronze ram-headed figure from the ground. It's so late, I need to go back and report to my superiors."

It was too scary there; she didn't have the courage to stay any longer.

Chen Li, a grandmaster-level expert, wasn't afraid of others trying to steal his things, and jokingly said:

"It's okay, I'll just ask the property management of Bihulongting to get it back. It's getting late, you should go home and rest."

Xiaoyu packed her things and left No. 28 while a passing patrol car was on its way.

In the car.

The patrolling security guard asked:

"Xiaoyu, is this homeowner surnamed Chen out of his mind? Buying the haunted house at number 28, isn't he afraid of being carried away by a ghost in the middle of the night?"

Xiaoyu sighed:

"You all say Mr. Chen has something wrong with his head, but I think we're the ones with something wrong with our heads."

"He only spent 18 million on a villa worth over 70 million."

"We just dug up a bronze ram-headed figure from under the living room floor. We made hundreds of millions in a single day."

The three patrolling security guards were simultaneously shocked, and each asked at once:

"That bronze figure with the ram's head that Old Man Yang lost?"

"Did he find it?"

"Has the contract been signed?"

Xiaoyu nodded and said:

"It's that priceless treasure. The contract has already been signed. It's like unearthing a gold mine; no one can take it away from us."

Snapped!

A security guard slapped his thigh and sighed:

"That's why people say he's lucky. If I had known earlier, I would have taken out a loan to buy villa number 28 and made hundreds of millions just by reselling it. Why would I be a security guard? I could be traveling all over the world."

Soon, the news spread throughout the entire Bihulongting Group.

The haunted house, in the blink of an eye, has become a highly sought-after property, leaving all those who missed out with regret.

Inside the villa.

Chen Li placed the bronze ram's head statue on the flower stand in the living room as an art piece, then went upstairs to soak in the oversized bathtub while drinking red wine.

The stars and moon are visible outside the window.

The night was quiet.

Xiao Yuanying called via video.

"Hello, Mr. Chen. Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't know you were here..."

She saw Chen Li taking a bath in the bathtub, and her eyes began to show panic.

"It's okay, I don't mind. Let me show you where you're staying in Yuncheng."

Chen Li turned the camera around to show her the surroundings.

"Wow, where is this? You really know how to enjoy yourself."

Chen Jia was shocked; he had never seen such a luxurious mansion before.

"This villa I just bought is for you. Do you like it?"

Chen Li asked with a smile.

"So cool! I love it! I can't wait until the weekend, I want to go after class tomorrow, Friday, waaaah..."

Chen Jia couldn't wait to throw herself into his arms.

"It's Friday..."

Chen Li was thinking about participating in the hospital advancement competition organized by the Medical Association tomorrow, and wondered if the senior staff would come to pick her up.

"Is it not allowed? Or do you have plans and it's inconvenient?"

Chen Jia thought of her imagined enemy and felt a little jealous.

"Okay, call me when you arrive, I'll pick you up at the airport. The camera's shaky, where are we going?"

Chen Li asked.

"I just came from the study room and am heading back to my dorm. I'm about to shower and go to bed. See you tomorrow afternoon, bye!"

Chen Jiachao kissed the camera, his face beaming with smiles.

Chen Li shook his head and smiled, looking forward to the arrival of a stunningly beautiful woman with a pure Yin constitution, one in ten thousand, so he could enjoy the sight of them playing in the water together.

……

the next morning.

A Mercedes-Benz was parked in front of villa number 28.

Zhao Guangzhu got out of the car, straightened his tie and suit, and walked in respectfully to greet Chen Li.

Ten minutes later.

Chen Li and Zhao Guangzhu came out and sat in the back row.

The driver took the car to the Guangyuan Building, where the Medical Association was located.

"Mr. Chen, look, this is the final list of candidates selected by the Medical Association judges, as well as the participants representing various hospitals."

As Zhao Guangzhu spoke, he showed the document to Chen Li and explained:

"The representative of Lijia Guangfeng Hospital is the director of Tianze Private Hospital, which I mentioned yesterday, named Du Feng."

"He and the deceased Yang Qi were both founders of this hospital."

Chen Li asked:

"What is his relationship with the Li family's Guangfeng Hospital?"

Zhao Guangzhu replied:

"Guangfeng Hospital holds 51% of the shares in Tianze Private Hospital. Strictly speaking, the real capital behind Tianze Private Hospital is the Li family."

"This Du Feng is the last disciple of Qi Ming, the Beidou of the medical field. He became famous in Yuncheng at the age of twelve, went abroad to study at the age of seventeen, and is the youngest senior member of Yuncheng Medical Association."

"He has powerful backers and substantial capital, making him extremely competitive."

Chen Li then asked:

What's going on with Tianji Hospital, a subsidiary of Tianlong Group?

"Why did you log out?"

"Is it because they couldn't find a very influential representative?"

Zhao Guangzhu said with deep concern:

"Tianlong Group is a powerful company, and the representative they chose is Wang Xuan, one of the top ten outstanding figures in traditional Chinese medicine in the country, and the vice president of a famous hospital."

"He registered at the maximum age limit of 35, and in terms of overall strength, he is even stronger than Du Feng, the director of Tianze Private Hospital."

"After hearing that Ye Qinglian was the representative of Century Hospital under the Juxian Chamber of Commerce, they immediately chose to withdraw from the competition."
