Chapter 7: Old Man, You Don’t Have Many Days to Live

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The old man bared his teeth with a smile. “How is it, girl? Have you also noticed that you haven’t been yourself lately?”

Lu Yao ignored him and stared at his pendant carefully.

The old man felt uncomfortable under her gaze and frowned at her. Seeing that she was staring at his precious jade pendant, he quickly held it in his hand and clenched his fists.

This jade pendant was a peerless treasure that he had spent a lot of effort to buy from the antique shop. He had come to the shop with almost all his savings before the shop owner reluctantly sold him this item.

It was beyond precious.

Lu Yao saw the old man’s nervous expression. “If you continue to wear this, you won’t have many days left.”

“What nonsense are you spouting, young lady?!” The other party looked displeased. “Step aside if you’re not going to read your fortune. Don’t spout nonsense here!”

Lu Yao was determined to get rid of the old man’s baleful aura today, so she wouldn’t leave no matter what.

She lazily sat on the stool opposite the old man and pointed at the jade pendant on the old man’s chest. “Your granddaughter went to the river a few days ago and fell into it. She’s still recuperating in bed. Two days later, your son made a mistake at work and caused the company to lose a large sum of money. He compensated with half a year’s salary.”

As Lu Yao spoke slowly, the impatient old man sat up straight and stared at her with bright eyes. “You’re here to cause trouble today, right?! Don’t spout nonsense here!”

Lu Yao raised her eyebrows slightly without any unhappiness. “Your wife fell down the stairs yesterday and was seriously injured. She should be hospitalized this morning. I’m here to save you, not to cause trouble.”

This old man had set up a fortune-telling stall in the alley for half his life and was quite famous in the vicinity. Everyone around him knew that there was an old man with the surname Wang who had some skills.

Lu Yao was right. He didn’t know what taboo or dirty things his family had committed recently, but strange things had happened one after another. He had been troubled by this for a long time.

It was three o’clock in the morning yesterday. For some reason, his honest wife had insisted on going for a walk downstairs. As soon as she left the house, she fell down the stairs. And his son, who had worked hard for years to get to the position of manager, had almost lost his job because of a very ridiculous mistake. His granddaughter had been afraid of water since she was young. She had actually taken the initiative to play by the river.

But how did this young girl in front of him know these things? Was she really some kind of otherworldly expert?

Old Wang rejected this idea. This little girl in front of him looked too inexperienced. How could she possibly understand such things? Not to mention the other party, even he, who had been in the industry for so many years, could not calculate the cause of these strange events in his family.

Lu Yao looked at the old man in front of her frowning thoughtfully and reached out to his chest.

“Hey, hey, hey! You little girl! Why are you snatching things!”

Old Wang took a few steps back warily with an unhappy expression. He thought to himself that this little girl was too rude. If this wasn’t daylight robbery, what was?!

Lu Yao put away the smile on her face and sighed softly. “You don’t have to be nervous. I’m not interested in your jade pendant. But it’s not an ordinary jade pendant. It’s something that has been buried with the dead for many years. Now, it has a lot of baleful aura attached to it. If you continue to wear it like this, there will be an even more serious bloody disaster in the future.”

“How do you know it’s a burial item?!” Old Wang was shocked by what Lu Yao said.

That’s right. His jade pendant was a burial item that had been dug up by some tomb robbers. Fortunately, those people didn’t know what it was. They had sold it to him for only a tenth of the market price. Even though it was so cheap, it had cost him years of savings to pick it up, so he had always felt that he had been lucky.

Lu Yao frowned slightly in confusion. “You know that this thing has a baleful aura, but you still keep wearing it? Why?”

These burial items had been buried underground for more than a thousand years and had absorbed a very heavy amount of baleful aura over time. When they were underground, the baleful aura could still be suppressed, but once they were unearthed, the baleful aura could not be suppressed. If they were accidentally tainted by the bloody aura again, they would die! At that time, it would not be as simple as falling!

Most people knew that things that had just been unearthed had a heavy baleful aura. For their own safety, they would not wear these things close to their bodies. This old man was quite bold!
