Chapter 104: A Poor Guy

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

An old ghost begged pitifully, “Master, please spare us. We didn’t mean to go against you.”

“We are all poor people. We only wish to head to the afterlife after our death.”

“The vicious businessmen have caused us to be reduced to wandering ghosts, suffering from the harsh wind and sun.”

“We have never harmed anyone. Please judge this carefully, and please don’t destroy our souls.”

The ghosts chattered about their sufferings, about how they only spooked others but never once took someone’s life.

They had no choice but to stay here.

“When the police came here to investigate, you guys obediently stayed quiet.”

“Once those ordinary folks moved in, you immediately continued spooking them.”

“Bullying the weak and fearing the strong, sigh.”

Chen Yu rolled his eyes in disdain.

Humans and ghosts had the same mindset of bullying the weak and fearing the strong.

When those officers entered for an investigation, these ghosts were as honest as they could be.

“I will help you resolve your grievances.”

“Now, you should go to where you belong.”

How could the ghosts disobey after noticing the boundless golden light shining from Chen Yu’s body?

They thanked Chen Yu profusely, swearing that they would do anything to repay his kindness if there was a next life.

Twenty minutes later, Chen Yu walked out of the villa with his hands in his pockets.

Li Changjun, smoking outside, quickly threw away his cigarette butt and walked over.

“Dr. Chen, did you find anything inside?”

“This place has returned to normal.”

“It’s back to normal!”

Li Changjun looked into the villa.

When he went in earlier, he was uncomfortable all over.

It was as if countless pairs of eyes were staring at him.

Could Chen Yu have restored the villa to normal so quickly?

Curious, Li Changjun mustered up his courage and went in.

“Eh? That strange feeling is gone.”

After standing in the living room for a while, Li Changjun felt everything was normal.

He ran to the second floor and walked around but didn’t feel anything strange either.

“Dr. Chen, how did you do it?”

Li Changjun said in surprise.

“Using scientific theory, 1 adjusted the magnetic field here.”

Chen Yu looked thoughtfully at a villa in the distance.

Li Changjun followed Chen Yu’s gaze and looked ahead.

“Dr. Chen, is there a problem with the villa?”

The corners of Chen Yu’s mouth curled up.

There was no problem with the villa, but the people living inside were quite interesting.

“Captain Li, go back and report to your superiors that everything is normal here and that people can move in again.”

“As for how to dispel the rumors of the nearby residents and the local myths, that’s your business.”

After saying that, Chen Yu strode forward.

Seeing Chen Yu walking forward, Li Changjun hurriedly asked, “Dr. Chen, aren’t you coming back with me?”

“I’m seeing a friend. You can go first.”

After sending Li Chengjun away, Chen Yu continued forward.

Chen Yu stepped on the moss-covered stone path and arrived at a villa.

In the villa area, only this villa was lived in.

There was a drying rack in the courtyard, and a few freshly washed clothes were hanging on it.

Behind the clothes rack was a vegetable field, and on the left were many woodworking tools.

Ding dong.

Chen Yu pressed the doorbell.

Not long after, the door to the villa opened.

A man in his fifties walked out.

The man was dressed plainly, with many calluses on his hands.

“Who are you looking for?”

“I’m here to find you, of course.” Chen Yu’s smile didn’t diminish.

“Do 1 know you?”

The man hesitated and asked.

“You don’t know me, but I’ve dealt with your spiritual tool twice.”

Looking around, Chen Yu said coolly, “Although there is no spiritual energy here, the Yin energy is abundant.”

“It’s very suitable for making evil spiritual tools.”

“Others avoided this place like the plague, but you occupied this safe haven and even took advantage of the local materials.”

Hearing this, the man looked at Chen Yu as if facing a great enemy.

He clenched his fists tightly.

“Before I answer your question, can you answer one of mine first?” Chen Yu asked with interest.

“You, the successor of the Lu Ban technique, how did you end up like this?”

“If your ancestor Lu Ban finds out about what he did, aren’t you worried that he’ll come to you in the middle of the night?”

Hearing this, the man’s reaction relaxed slightly, and he opened the door.

“So you’re someone of the mystic arts too.”

Chen Yu first mentioned the evil spiritual tools and then pointed out his identity.

The man roughly understood that the young man before him should be in the same world as him—disciples of the mystic sects.

Otherwise, Chen Yu wouldn’t have known so much inside information.

“I don’t know if my ancestor will visit me in my dreams. 1 only know that if 1 don’t do this, my parents’ medical expenses will not be covered.”

“My eldest son can’t afford to buy a house, so he can’t get married.”

“The tuition fees for my second and third children are also unsettled.”

“In this day and age, the successor of the Lu Ban technique is no longer valuable.”

The middle-aged man sat in his entryway with a resentful expression.

“You’re also a member of the mystic arts. Don’t you know how miserable we are now?”

“In ancient times, Lu Ban was a famous figure.”

“But now, I’m nothing.”

The middle-aged man lamented miserably.

Others who could rely on exorcism, ghostbusting, divination, or Feng Shui could still live a good life.

However, the situation of the Lu Ban technique’s successor could only be described with one word.

Tragic.

The Lu Ban technique originated with a man named Lu Ban.

Lu Ban’s text is divided into three volumes.

The first volume contained various ways to construct houses.

The middle volume recorded the methods of making spiritual tools.

The last volume recorded spells and incantations.

The Lu Ban technique inspired the widely used rituals to avoid bad luck.

“In the early years, we had endless work. Money was never a problem.”

“Today, the houses we lived in have long been replaced with reinforced concrete instead of wood.”

The man had spent half his life learning craftsmanship for building wooden houses.

After graduating, he only realized there was no use for him in this modernized world.

In order to support his family, he could only use the Lu Ban technique to make spiritual tools for others.

Due to the thin spiritual energy in their current world, he specialized in creating spiritual tools more on the evil side.

“Seeing that you’re dressed well, you should be a disciple of the Dao Sect. You’re learning divination, right?”

The man looked at Chen Yu enviously.

“You people are sure lucky. Many wealthy people in this era heavily relied on Feng Shui and divination when making decisions.”

“Reading their fortunes can get you at least ten thousand yuan.”

“Unlike us, the people of the mystic arts who are outside of the Dao Sect have to go begging on the streets.”

The man seemed to have endless complaints.

After discussing his own situation, he started talking about the Dao Sect.

Lu Ban’s successors, Xiangxi’s Corpse Herders, the South’s Shamans, and the North’s Chu Ma’s disciples.

None of them could survive on their crafts anymore.

He remembered seeing a successor of a spirit summoner who summoned a strong ghost to possess him to move bricks at a construction site a few days after he arrived in Hangzhou City.

“Stop, stop, stop.”

Chen Yu had no choice but to interrupt the man’s complaints.

If he continued, he would probably not stop for another hour.

“Right, what kind of spiritual tool are you here to buy?” The man asked.

“I’m not here to buy tools. I’m here to buy you.”

Chen Yu chuckled and replied,
