Repairer - Chapter 30
Chapter 30 Yin Fiend Stone (2)
Although the repair points from absorbing the yin fiend stone were not much, Su Xiaofan was still very satisfied with the channel to increase his repair points.
After standing in the Su village for a whole day to welcome and send off guests, Su Xiaofan was indeed exhausted. After absorbing the yin fiend stone, he fell asleep.
Su Xiaofan’s sleep quality had always been good, and it was almost one or two o’clock when he went to bed the day before. He slept all the way until ten in the morning when he was woken up by a phone call.
“Brother Gang, what’s the matter?” He picked up his phone and looked at the caller ID. Su Xiaofan picked up the call. He didn’t have a morning temper and was wide awake after being woken up.
“Xiaofan, the stone from yesterday is still with you, right? Uncle Jing said that he will be back in a few days. He wants you to keep the stone safe.” Zheng Dagang’s tone was a little urgent.
“Ah, I… After I entered the district yesterday, I threw the stone into the artificial lake in the district.”
Su Xiaofan was taken aback at first, but then said, “You and Xiaoxiao both said that it was inauspicious and a little evil. I was thinking the same thing, so I threw it away.”
Su Xiaofan was glad that he had found an excuse yesterday. Otherwise, he wouldn’t know what to do if Jing Shizhen came back and wanted the stone. After all, Su Xiaofan owed Jing Shizhen a big favor when he bought the Wind-occupying Bell.
“What? You threw it away? Are you telling the truth?”
Zheng Dagang’s voice suddenly raised an octave. “Brother, you… Couldn’t you just stay still for a night? Didn’t I say I’d ask Uncle Jing today?”
“Of course it’s true. Xiaoxiao was right beside me when I threw it.” Su Xiaofan replied.
“Just you wait, I’m coming to you now!” Without waiting for Su Xiaofan’s reply, Zheng Dagang hung up the phone in a hurry. “Could it be that this thing is very valuable?” Su Xiaofan hung up the phone and was a little confused, but the value of the yin fiend stone was obviously not low since it could make Zheng Dagang so anxious.
Zheng Dagang came very quickly. Less than half an hour after Su Xiaofan hung up the phone, he knocked on the door.
“Where did you throw it?” Zheng Dagang asked as soon as he entered the door.
“There, over there.”
Su Xiaofan pulled Zheng Dagang to the balcony, pointed to the artificial lake below, and said, “I threw it into the lake. It’s about 10 to 20 meters from the shore. I can still remember the location.”
“F*ck, how are we going to find it?”
Standing on the balcony and looking at the full view of the artificial lake, Zheng Dagang was a little dumbfounded.
There was naturally a reason why the houses in the neighborhood were expensive.
The plot ratio of the community Su Xiaofan had bought was extremely low. The middle area was originally a pond before development, but the developer simply expanded the pond into an artificial lake, taking up nearly a quarter of the entire area of the community. The houses in the community were built around the man-made lake. No matter which direction the houses were in, they could see the view of the man-made lake, which was also a selling point of the community.
Seeing that the man-made lake was large enough for a boat trip, Zheng Dagang suddenly gave up. He had seen that stone before. It was only the size of a thumb and thrown into the lake. Even if the lake water was drained, it would be impossible to find it. “Brother Gang, what’s that rock? Can you me about it?” Su Xiaofan asked. He knew that tell it was a yin fiend stone, but he had no idea where it came from or what it was used for. “Hey, brother, three million, three million gone!”
Zheng Dagang pulled a long face. Although it had nothing to do with him even if the stone was sold for three million Yuan, he was still heartbroken to see Su Xiaofan lose three million Yuan for no reason.
“Three million… It’s that expensive?!”
Su Xiaofan was taken aback. He did not expect the stone to be so precious. It was so small, but it was worth more than a magical artifact. “Uncle Jing said three million on the phone. As for how much it is, it depends on the real thing.”
“but Uncle Jing said that the worst can be sold for three million,” Zheng Dagang said weakly. “If the quality is better, it’s not impossible to sell it for four or five million.”
“F*ck!”
Su Xiaofan couldn’t help but curse. He was really shocked this time. He had only gained ten repair points after absorbing the stone, which was equivalent to three to four hundred thousand Yuan.
“I threw away an entire house?”
Su Xiaofan looked like he had nothing to live for. This time, he wasn’t just showing off his acting skills. He really regretted it. Although the repair points were useful, at the moment, spending three to four million to buy ten repair points was too low a price-performance ratio.
After buying the bell, Su Xiaofan did not have enough money to pay for his sister’s tuition and living expenses for three years. He regretted absorbing the yin fiend stone.
Of course, even if he didn’t absorb the stone, Su Xiaofan might not sell it, but he would keep it in case of an emergency.
“Do you want me to dive into the lake and look for it?” Zheng Dagang still didn’t want to give up and said, “I’m pretty good at swimming, maybe I can find it.”
“Forget it, Brother Gang. I shouldn’t have gotten rich.”
Su Xiaofan could not help but smile wryly. Did he not know what he had done? Not to mention that Zheng Dagang was good at swimming, even if he was a mermaid, he wouldn’t be able to find the stone in the man-made lake. ‘I’ve still gained something. At least I know that absorbing a low-grade yin fiend stone can increase my repair points by ten.’ Su Xiaofan consoled himself.
“It’s good that you’ve stayed until today,”
Zheng Dagang still felt sorry for Su Xiaofan.
“Brother Gang, don’t think about these useless things.”
“No,” Su Xiaofan waved his hand. “Tell me what that stone is. We might be able to find it in the future.”
“Uncle Jing said that those things are called yin stones…”
“Eh? It’s called a yin stone?”
Su Xiaofan interrupted Zheng Dagang. That thing was clearly called the yin fiend stone. “Right, they’re called yin stones.”
Zheng Dagang nodded his head with certainty, “The formation environment for yin stones is very harsh. It can only be produced in a place with an extremely abundant yin qi. “The production of yin stones not only requires the nourishment of yin qi, but also the impact of fiendish qi. Only then can they be produced…”
“According to Uncle Jing, the yin stone would mostly appear in two places.”
One was a natural place of extreme yin. This kind of place was barren and deserted. Moreover, yin stones would only be found in yin caves. The quality of the yin stones produced in this kind of environment was relatively high.
The second place where the yin stone would appear was in some tombs, and it had to be the kind of yin residence with excellent feng shui. It was more difficult for yin stones to appear in ancient tombs than in places of extreme yin. As the yin Qi in ancient tombs was not as good as in places of extreme yin, it had to be mixed with evil Qi to nourish yin stones. However, the quality of the yin stones in the tomb was much worse than the yin stones that appeared in the extreme yin places.
But whether it was the extreme yin place or the yin stone in the tomb, they were extremely rare. In the words of uncle Jing, he had only seen two pieces of yin stone in his life.
“I see. No wonder it’s called the evil stone. It seems to be from a tomb.”
After hearing Zheng Dagang’s explanation, Su Xiaofan knew the origin of the yin fiend stone, which matched the place where Wu Chuanpeng got the stone.
“How can an ordinary person carry something that contains fiendish Qi? It seems that even if those two brothers don’t die, they’ll be seriously ill.”
Su Xiaofan was deep in thought. The yin fiend stone would probably really hurt ordinary people.
“That’s right. Those two grandsons from yesterday must have been backstabbers. How could they be in the same trade as us? Bah!”
There was also an ecosystem in the antique circle. The big collectors looked down on the small collectors, the small collectors looked down on the players, and the players looked down on those who set up stalls. However, street vendors were not at the bottom of the ecosystem. They despised those who sold dirty things the most, because the things that the farmers took out were all stolen goods.
“Brother Gang, do you only find yin stones in tombs other than places with extreme yin?” Su Xiaofan had never even heard of the extreme yin place, so he naturally didn’t know where it was. But tombs were everywhere in Xiao mountain, and countless had been dug up. Su Xiaofan thought he might be able to get some from the people who had fallen.
“Uncle Jing said that only these two places have it, but there aren’t many in the tomb either.” Zheng Dagang nodded. He was just repeating Uncle Jing’s words.
“Then what’s the use of this thing that makes it so expensive?”
“What’s wrong?” Su Xiaofan asked. He only knew one use for the stone, which was to absorb it and convert it into repair points. “Uncle Jing didn’t make it too clear.” Zheng Dagang thought for a moment and said, “I think it’s said that this thing can affect the magnetic field of the surrounding environment and make people hallucinate. It’s the best material for setting up an array. I don’t really understand it.”
“Yes, the ghost fog that the two of them encountered might have been caused by the yin stones. But what’s a formation?” Thinking of yesterday’s incident, Su Xiaofan was sure of the use of the yin stone, but he was a little confused about the array Zheng Dagang was talking about. Was it the eight-trigram array he had spent money on in the park before?
“Uncle Jing only mentioned it briefly. He didn’t go into detail.”
Zheng Dagang scratched his head and said with some gloating, “If you want to know, give Uncle Jing a call. But you have to be prepared to get scolded. It’s a waste of a treasure to let you throw it away.’ When Zheng Dagang called Uncle Jing, he could tell that this yin stone was the kind of item that had a price but no supply. It couldn’t be measured with specific money. The price mentioned by Uncle Jing was just a reference.
“I’m not calling Uncle Jing. I don’t have his number.”
Su Xiaofan quickly shook his head and chuckled. “I’m going to send Xiaoxiao to Yanjing for registration in a few days. Even if uncle Jing comes back, he won’t be able to find me.”
“I’ll give Uncle Jing a call later and tell him not to come back.”
Zheng Dagang was also helpless. The thing had been thrown away, and it had been thrown to a place where it could not be found. There was no point in discussing about it with Uncle Jing.
“Forget it, let’s not talk about this. Where’s Xiaoxiao? I’ll treat you guys to lunch as a farewell to Xiaoxiao.”
Zheng Dagang changed the topic. Since it wasn’t his stuff, it didn’t matter if he threw it away. Su Xiaofan didn’t even feel that it was a pity, so why should he be bothered?
“Xiaoxiao might have gone shopping with her classmates again. Brother Gang, let’s find a place to eat for lunch.”
The two of them sat in the living room and talked for a long time, but Su Xiaoxiao, who liked to join in the fun, didn’t come out. It was very likely that she had left.
In fact, if it weren’t for the fact that the yin stone was extremely valuable, Su Xiaofan would have been in a good mood today. After all, he had found a way to increase his repair points, and it was worth celebrating.
