Chapter 66: Selling Gold

Seeing this, Fang Qiqi realized that this silver ingot was actually made of paper.

Before Fang Qi could speak, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside the door.

This time, the footsteps were heavier than those of the Tsing Yi people, and with each sound, the ground seemed to tremble.

Fang Qiqi didn't need to be taught this time, he looked left and right, and immediately squatted on the right side of the coffin.

As soon as he and Niu Banxian squatted down, they saw a giant who was also tall and stepped in.

This giant looks similar to the man in Tsing Yi, except that the robe on his body is golden.

After the yellow-clothed giant entered the door, he did not pause like the man in Tsing Yi, but walked straight to the left, and circled around the coffin like the man in Tsing Yi.

Seeing that the yellow-clothed giant was about to come to him in the blink of an eye, Fang Qiqi hurriedly covered his mouth and nose. But when he looked at Niu Banxian, he saw that Niu Banxian was squinting at himself, and he didn't mean to hold his breath.

Fang Qiqi felt strange in his heart, but he still didn't dare to let go.

When the yellow-clothed giant came to him, he didn't stop, but didn't feel the existence of the two at all, and walked over directly.

Fang Qiqi felt even more puzzled, the man in Tsing Yi is silver, and the man in yellow is not gold?

He couldn't figure out why the papier-mΓ’chΓ© ingots had turned into giants, but he vaguely felt that the number of paths between the people in yellow and the people in Tsing Yi seemed to be different.

"Silver for life, gold for life......"

Fang Qiqi muttered secretly in his heart, and couldn't help but glance at Niu Banxian complainingly.

This old man knew a lot of things, but he didn't tell himself in advance. I used to make eye gesturing to tell myself what to do, but now it's good, and I don't even have a good look.

Just as he was thinking, the yellow-clothed giant circled to the right again.

Fang Qiqi couldn't help but lift his heart again, and was just about to hold his breath, when he suddenly heard a soft sound of "ding".

As soon as he looked at the sound, Fang Qiqi's eyes couldn't help but straighten.

Where the voice came, there was a scaly, golden thing. It looked only a little bigger than the thumb cap, but it looked like gold scales made of gold!

Gold has always been an expensive thing, and this piece of gold scale is worth thousands of dollars, according to the price of that year, it is enough to inspire the family's expenses for half a year.

The man in yellow still didn't stop, but as he walked by, more golden scales kept falling.

For a while, the sound of metal colliding with floor tiles was endless, and dozens of golden scales were left behind where the man in yellow passed.

As the saying goes, sake is popular, wealth is moving, and at first sight of so much gold, Fang Qi couldn't help but speed up his heartbeat.

Listening to the voice, those gold scales are definitely real materials, then again, even if what you see in front of you is an illusion, the gold scales are just gold leaf illusions, but so many gold foils add up, and the value is quite expensive.

Fang Qi's palms were sweaty, and he subconsciously looked at Niu Banxian, but saw that Niu Banxian's eyes were red, his lips were pursed, and he stared at the golden scales in front of him, looking distracted.

The man in yellow walked by, Niu Banxian suddenly turned around, grabbed Fang Qiqi, and said with a short breath:

"Little brother, this desperate gold is real, but you can't pick it up. So I will pick up the gold, and I will bear the risk, and you will only have to promise me one thing, and the gold will be divided into half for you. ”

Only then did Fang Qiqi understand that he didn't need to hold his breath in the face of the man in yellow.

"Uncle, this gold is not ours, we don't want it."

"Nope." Niu Banxian seemed to have lost his normality, and said resolutely: "As the so-called wealth and danger are sought, I have not much time, if I don't take this opportunity to make this evil wealth, when I die, my wife and children will have to die of poverty!" ”

He took Fang Qiqi's hand and clenched it tighter, and his tone became more eager: "Brother, most of my life is going to die here, you remember the address of my home, if I can't leave, you will give half of the gold to my mother-in-law, and you will stay the other half, and life will be better in the future." ”

Fang Qi's heart chuckled, but before he could react, he felt that Niu Banxian grabbed his hand and increased his strength.

His arm was clenched painfully, and he saw that Niu Banxian's expression seemed to be a little crazy, so he had to reluctantly nod.

"Okay, that's it."

Niu Banxian said a word, let go of Fang Qiqi, and reached out to pick up the golden scales in front of him.

Seeing that his face was red, and he looked like he was dying for money, Fang Qiqi couldn't help but be moved, and wanted to step forward to help pick it up, but was pushed back by Niu Banxian.

Niu Banxian quickly finished picking up the scales on the right, but he still didn't seem to be satisfied, so he went around to the left side of the coffin to pick up the rest of the gold scales.

Fang Qiqi subconsciously felt that something was wrong, so he hurriedly grabbed his back placket and sat him on the ground with force.

At this time, the man in yellow had already circled the coffin for the third time, but he did not continue to circulate, but walked straight out of the door.

It wasn't until the footsteps disappeared that Fang Qiqi came back to his senses, turned his head and looked at Niu Banxian again, his face was pale, he looked sick, and he looked much older than before.

Niu Banxian smiled miserably, spread out his palm, and there was indeed a handful of gold pieces in his palm. These pieces of gold are by no means as weighty as the scales we've seen before, but they're real gold.

followed Niu Banxian to the left side of the coffin, and found seven or eight pieces of gold on the ground.

Niu Banxian picked up all these gold pieces and wrapped them in a handkerchief, but they were stuffed into Fang Qi's hand along with the money Peng Xi gave him before.

"Uncle, what are you doing here?" Fang Qiqi exclaimed.

Niu Banxian laughed dryly and said, "Picking up this gold is equivalent to selling your own life." ”

"Then you still pick it up?" Fang Qiqi was really anxious. The man in yellow is indeed the 'gold who sells his life'.

Niu Banxian insisted on stuffing him with money and gold, picked up the remaining bottle of liquor, unscrewed the lid and took a big sip, bared his teeth, and asked Fang Qi:

"If you can't see the people in Tsing Yi and the people in yellow, but only see this gold on the ground, will you pick it up?"

Fang Qi was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Pick it up." ”

He was not a saint in the first place, and his life was tight, so how could he not take it for himself if he really saw this 'ownerless' yellow and white thing?

"That's it." Niu Banxian nodded, "The man in Tsing Yi and the man in yellow are the form of silver and gold, you have eaten fried grains and rice, so you can see them." If not, you can't see them, only gold and silver, and nine times out of ten, you will fall for the trick of the surname Peng, and you will be robbed of your longevity unconsciously. ”

He suddenly showed a wicked smile, "If you want to say that the surname Peng is also a calculating person, but he never imagined that this time he took this gold out in exchange for his life, but he did a loss-making business." ”

"Uncle, you ......" Fang Qiqi is not a person without memory, he remembers that Niu Banxian said just now that his time is running out.

Niu Banxian waved his hand, asked him to put away the money first, drank two more sips of wine, poured the rest of the wine into the kettle he carried, and then said:

"I won't hide it from you now, yesterday at the bazaar, I saw that you were about to die. But as the so-called blessings and misfortunes depend on, and misfortunes and blessings rely on, who can say that there is no turning point between life and death?

To be honest, I deliberately befriended you, and came here with you, not to help you when the road is uneven. I was so sick that I was dying. I just want to take the opportunity to make a fortune, so that my 80-year-old father can live in retirement, and my wife and children will not live in poverty for the rest of their lives. ”
