Chapter 344: Die With Clarity

　　A person on the verge of death speaks with kindness.

　　Lu Fei stood high above, looking indifferently at the ghost raiser lying in a pool of blood.

　　"Do you have any last words?"

　　"I just want to know, how did you gain such profound magic power in such a short time?"

　　The ghost raiser looked up at Lu Fei's young and stern face, filled with both reluctance and confusion.

　　Last time, he was defeated by this young man.

　　He had finally found a person with a Yin life force to plant a ghost, and once the ghost fetus was born, he could refine it into his own lifeline fierce ghost, greatly increasing his power.

　　But he never expected to run into this young man again!

　　At this moment, he was no match for Lu Fei.

　　Why?

　　"This is what you want to know?" Lu Fei raised an eyebrow slightly.

　　"I just want to die with full understanding."

　　The ghost raiser sighed deeply, his eyes dim, seemingly already prepared for death.

　　"Then listen carefully."

　　Lu Fei, holding the small black dog, moved closer to the ghost raiser.

　　The ghost raiser raised his head and assumed a posture of attentive listening.

　　Lu Fei looked at his sullen, pale old face, smiled faintly, and softly uttered a few words.

　　"I won't tell you."

　　The ghost raiser's expression froze, his pupils quivered uncontrollably, and his blood-stained chest heaved rapidly.

　　"You! You..."

　　A ghostly figure quietly appeared behind Lu Fei and lunged ferociously.

　　Lu Fei raised his hand.

　　Electric sparks flashed from the wooden stick in his hand.

　　In an instant, the ghostly figure vanished without a trace.

　　The ghost raiser seemed to have been stabbed in the heart, and he spewed out another large pool of black blood, collapsing to the ground, barely alive.

　　"I knew you old thing had ill intentions."

　　Feigning questions, but truly looking for a chance to launch a sneak attack!

　　Lu Fei gave a faint sneer, tossing the ghost infant in front of the ghost raiser and lightly tapping with his jujube wood stick.

　　A flash of lightning fell upon the ghost infant.

　　The ghost infant didn't even have time to scream, turning to ashes before the eyes of the ghost raiser.

　　The body of the ghost raiser suddenly jolted, collapsing to the ground like a dead dog, with no more blood to spew, his cloudy eyes staring at Lu Fei.

　　He wanted to remember his appearance clearly, to not let him go even in death...

　　But it was all over now.

　　His vision blurred, and his head drooped dejectedly.

　　"Xiao Hei, if anyone else bullies you in the future, this will be their fate."

　　Lu Fei cast a faint glance at the black ash on the ground, and carried the small black dog as he slowly walked away...

　　Morning light spread over the earth.

　　The city, having rested all night, gradually became busy again.

　　People came and went on the streets.

　　The antique street, this small alley, remained as desolate as ever.

　　"A Long, have some tea."

　　Lu Fei placed the teacups in front of A Long and Huang Mao.

　　Since Hu Zi was not around, he had to come here by himself.

　　The small black dog nestled on the cushion, gnawing hard at the new slippers. The wounds on its body had been carefully treated by Lu Fei, and after a good sleep, it was fully restored.

　　"Shopkeeper Lu, I've brought the items for you."

　　Alon carefully placed the soul-sealing jar on the table.

　　The seal on the jar was intact, without any sign of damage or tampering. To guard this jar, he had not slept a wink last night.

　　"Thanks, Alon." Lu Fei nodded with a smile.

　　Alon is a reliable person, and Lu Fei felt very at ease.

　　"You're too kind, Master Lu. We should be the ones thanking you." Alon turned to glare at Huangmao, "What are you still standing there for? Don't you want to thank Master Lu for saving your life?"

　　Huangmao still looked pale and weak. He hadn't recovered from the hardships he suffered yesterday; he was as frail as a bean sprout and could barely sit up straight. Alon had dragged him over by force.

　　In Alon's view, as long as someone was still breathing, they should personally express their gratitude to Lu Fei.

　　"Thank you, Master Lu, thank you, Master Lu..."

　　Huangmao forced a smile and nodded at Lu Fei, his voice feeble.

　　But his attitude was sincere.

　　He felt like he had suffered all the sins of his life yesterday. As long as he didn't have to have children, he was willing to kneel and kowtow to Lu Fei.

　　"Alright, alright, I'm doing this for business, so you should thank your brother-in-law." Lu Fei smiled and waved his hand, "If it weren't for him, who would have noticed that there was something wrong with your tattoo?"

　　"Brother Long... no, brother-in-law, in my heart, you are my real brother-in-law." Huang Mao looked at A Long with deep emotion, "I will tell my sister, she hasn't gotten married all these years, I'm sure she is still thinking about you..."

　　"Shut up!" A Long glared at him coldly, "If you dare to meddle, do you believe I will throw you off the building?"

　　Huang Mao hurriedly covered his mouth.

　　A Long changed the subject: "Manager Lu, how should we handle the pawn procedures for this evil object?"

　　Lu Fei then took out the pawn ticket: "Dead pawn or live pawn?"

　　He then briefly explained the difference between the two.

　　"Dead pawn, dead pawn... as for the price..." Huang Mao cast a complicated glance at the soul-sealing jar. For some reason, he felt a strange sense of guilt, as if he were selling a child.

　　A Long frowned: "Are you still thinking about money?"

　　"No, no, I don't want money." The Yellow-Haired guy hastily waved his hands, "It's a gift for Boss Lu!"

　　"There still needs to be a price; it's the rule." Lu Fei smiled and pulled out a one-yuan bill, "This time, I'll take charge. Keep this one yuan, but don't spend it. Remember this lesson."

　　The Yellow-Haired guy silently took the money, gritted his teeth, and avoided looking at the Soul-Sealing Jar, afraid that he would soften if he looked at it again.

　　Lu Fei wrote up the pawn ticket.

　　The Yellow-Haired guy signed with a shaky hand.

　　The pawn ticket was made in duplicate, and the transaction was completed.

　　Lu Fei was in a good mood.

　　"Boss Lu, is his tattoo still a concern?"

　　Then, Ah Long lifted the Yellow-Haired guy's shirt, exposing his back.

　　The tattoo of the Five Ghosts on his back was completely smeared, the ink as faded as if it had lost its color, especially the coffin in the center, which looked like it was falling apart.

　　"This tattoo has already lost its effectiveness, but it's better to get it removed; it looks quite inauspicious," Lu Fei said.

　　A Long glared sideways at Huang Mao: "Did you hear that?"

　　"Yes, I will get it removed once I feel better," Huang Mao nodded obediently. In truth, he wouldn't have kept the tattoo that caused his swollen belly, even if no one had mentioned it.

　　"Manager Lu, I will remember this favor! If you ever need anything from me, A Long, just say the word!"

　　Finally.

　　A Long gave Lu Fei a deep bow before leaving with Huang Mao.

　　Lu Fei took out his ledger to record the transaction.

　　Ghost Fetus.

　　Evil object +1, total number of evil objects collected: 22.

　　Looking at the details in the ledger, Lu Fei couldn't help but feel a bit moved.

　　When I first set the goal of acquiring 100 evil objects, it seemed quite distant, but before I knew it, I had already completed one-fifth of it.

　　Lu Fei felt a great sense of accomplishment.

　　Then, he placed the soul-sealing jar in the warehouse.

　　This ghost fetus needs to be sealed for forty-nine days to lose its ferocity.

　　In the evening.

　　Chen Jinfa, upon hearing about this, insisted on treating Lu Fei to dinner, saying it had been a long time since they last met and it was a good opportunity to catch up.

　　Lu Fei quite enjoyed spending time with this straightforward nouveau riche. Having nothing better to do, he invited Liu Fugui along as well.

　　They chose a donkey meat restaurant for their meal.

　　In the private room, everyone sat around the table, even the little black dog had a place at the table.

　　As the saying goes, 'The meat of dragons in the sky, the meat of donkeys on earth!'

　　"Having tasted all the fragrances under heaven, none compares to the fragrance of donkey meat."

　　Chen Jinfah wore a thick gold chain around his neck, and his voice was as coarse as ever; he hadn't changed a bit.

　　After Lu Fei helped him deal with the evil spirit from the soul-binding stake, the reconstruction of his shopping center went incredibly smoothly and was almost complete.

　　"Big Brother Fa's taste is still as unique as ever," Lu Fei couldn't help but laugh.

　　Last time it was eel, this time it's donkey meat.

　　Let's hope the donkey this time is a normal one.
