"What did you say? My Dragon-Seeking Disk is with you now!"
Qin Yu's voice instantly increased by several decibels, startling Zhang Hua, who was sitting across the table and picking up food with his chopsticks. He lost his grip and dropped a piece of meat onto the table.
"Embarrassing." Zhang Hua glanced at Tong Min, who was looking at him with a certain expression. He wished he could strangle his own cousin to death. Just answer a phone call, and suddenly the volume shoots up so high, making him look foolish in front of Tong Min.
"You're in Guangzhou now? Where are you? I got it. Don't leave there. I'll come over right away." After a while, Qin Yu hung up the phone, his face showing an excited expression. He said to Zhang Hua and Tong Min, "I need to go to Yilong Street now. Cousin, Miss Tong, please continue eating."
"Why are you going to Yilong Street? That place sells Feng Shui tools. Oh, right, I forgot." Zhang Hua paused midway through his sentence, suddenly remembering that his cousin was a Feng Shui master.
"Yes, something very important to me has appeared in Yilong Street." Qin Yu nodded and got up, heading towards the exit.
Outside the restaurant, Qin Yu realized he was too impatient. He only knew the name Yilong Street but had no idea where it was located. The area was still relatively remote until the development zone was completed, and there was not a single taxi passing by.
"Little Yu, get in the car. I'll take you to Yilong Street. It will take a long time to wait for a taxi here."
Just as Qin Yu was considering walking to a bustling area first, his cousin Zhang Hua called out from behind. Qin Yu turned around and saw Zhang Hua and Tong Min coming out of the restaurant as well.
"Since Tong Miss and I have finished eating, and it seems urgent for you, we followed you out."
Qin Yu cast an apologetic look at Tong Min. It was clear that the two of them left early because when Qin Yu left, only half of the ordered dishes had arrived. As for his cousin, there was no need to say anything since they were family.
Sitting in the car, Qin Yu finally had time to calm down and think. His Dragon-Seeking Disk was clearly stolen by that female thief, so how did it end up in Mo Yongxing's hands, in Yilong Street of all places?
"Could it be that the female thief was sent by the Mo family? Is their goal to retrieve my Dragon-Seeking Disk?"
This thought flashed through Qin Yu's mind, but he quickly dismissed it. The Mo sisters didn't seem like those types of people, and besides, if it was the Mo family's doing, why would Mo Yongxing call him?
"We've arrived at Yilong Street, but it's too crowded inside, and the car can't go in. Let's get off here and walk in."
Zhang Hua parked the car at a street intersection. Qin Yu got out of the car and looked towards the street intersection. A metal sign stood by the roadside with three large characters on it: Yilong Street.
"They say that people in coastal areas believe in Feng Shui the most, and it's true. It's like a vegetable market here." Qin Yu sighed as he saw the bustling crowd coming and going.
"What's this? This street isn't even the biggest one. The one near the southern part of the city is much livelier," Zhang Hua interjected, and the three of them headed towards Yilong Street.
"Come and take a look. This is the Taoist peach wood sword used by Master Zhang. Buying it can ward off evil spirits and protect against sneak attacks. It's the last one, don't miss out."
"We have Buddha pendants blessed by the master at Fahua Temple. They ensure lifelong safety. Limited quantity, first come, first served."
As soon as they entered Yilong Street, Qin Yu was dumbfounded. It was like a bustling market, with various vendors shouting and bargaining, even more lively than an ordinary vegetable market.
"What are you looking to buy, esteemed customers? I have everything on my stall. They are all good items. Have you seen this peach wood sword? It was once used by Master Zhang," Qin Yu approached a stall, and the stall owner immediately started enthusiastically introducing the items on the stall.
Glancing at the peach wood sword the stall owner held in his hand, Qin Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly. This sword wasn't even made of peach wood, and yet the stall owner dared to claim it was used by Master Zhang. Not wanting to listen to the stall owner's sales pitch, he directly asked, "Boss, I want to ask, where is Yi'an Zhai located on this street?"
"Yi'an Zhai? Take the first left at the intersection ahead, and it's the first shop," hearing that Qin Yu was asking for directions, the stall owner's enthusiasm immediately vanished. He casually pointed the way and didn't pay any more attention to him.
Following the direction indicated by the stall owner, Qin Yu turned left and found that this area was filled with shops, without any stalls. The number of people passing by was significantly reduced compared to before, making it suddenly feel much quieter.
"Yi'an Zhai, this is the place."
Looking up at the signboard, Qin Yu stepped towards the shop. As soon as he entered, he felt that something was off in the atmosphere. There was a faint scent of gunpowder in the air.
"Hmph, soon you'll find out if this is a magical artifact or not. Don't think you're so great just because you know a bit about Feng Shui."
The familiar voice of Mo Yongxing reached Qin Yu's ears as soon as he entered the shop. It seemed like he was arguing with someone. Qin Yu coughed a couple of times, immediately drawing the attention of several people in the shop.
"Qin Yu, you're here. Quickly tell me how to activate this Dragon-Seeking Disk," Mo Yongxing's eyes lit up when he saw Qin Yu enter, and he patted him on the shoulder.
"How did the Dragon-Seeking Disk end up in your hands?" Qin Yu ignored Mo Yongxing's request and asked in return.
"I should be asking you the same. How did you give the Dragon-Seeking Disk to a woman? She even brought it to this shop to sell. If I hadn't coincidentally encountered her, she would have sold it to the shop owner for 300 yuan. I'm telling you, that woman might be your mistress."
Mo Yongxing gave Qin Yu a look that men understood well. He remarked that the woman was indeed beautiful, with a tempting figure. Just the thought of being intimate with such a woman made one's blood boil.
"Mistress? She's a thief. She stole my Dragon-Seeking Disk on the train."
"A thief? Who are you trying to fool? A woman this beautiful wouldn't resort to stealing. She could easily find a rich man or someone as handsome and wealthy as me."
Mo Yongxing's face was filled with disbelief. It's often said that a woman's greatest asset is her appearance, and having a good set of skills is no match for a beautiful face. In today's society, many attractive women become mistresses or sugar babies. Given the woman's looks, not to mention becoming a mistress, men would willingly divorce their wives for her.
"I'm telling the truth. But since the Dragon-Seeking Disk has been found, these things don't matter anymore," Qin Yu smiled.
"Wait," Mo Yongxing stared at Qin Yu intently, causing Qin Yu to be puzzled. He blinked his eyes and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Qin Yu, I paid 10,000 yuan to buy this Dragon-Seeking Disk from that woman."
"Okay, I'll give you the money later," Qin Yu didn't think it was a big deal. He still had the money on him.
"You didn't understand what I meant. I am now the owner of the Dragon-Seeking Disk. I didn't say I would sell it to you," Mo Yongxing chuckled, revealing his bright white teeth. Seeing Qin Yu's astonished expression made him feel happy.
"This is stolen property. Buying it makes you an accomplice, and the rightful owner has the right to claim it back," Qin Yu reminded Mo Yongxing. The Dragon-Seeking Disk was stolen, and even if he bought it, it would still be considered stolen property. The original owner had the right to demand its return.
"You call it stolen property, then it's stolen property. Besides, why don't you call the police? Have you seen him? He's the son of the Director of the Guangzhou Public Security Bureau. Do you think the police would stand on your side or mine?"
"You..." Qin Yu was frustrated. He didn't expect Mo Yongxing to pull this move on him. Given the power of the Mo family, it would be difficult for him to retrieve the Dragon-Seeking Disk through conventional means.
"Alright, let's not discuss that for now. Teach me how to summon the Golden Dragon. Those people don't believe it's a magical artifact."
Qin Yu understood why Mo Yongxing called him over after hearing his words. It was because of this. He raised the corner of his mouth, revealing a smile, and said, "Since the Dragon-Seeking Disk now belongs to you, it has nothing to do with me."
Qin Yu no longer paid attention to Mo Yongxing and instead admired the items in the shop. To his surprise, Yi'an Zhai had a wide variety of Feng Shui tools, with numerous styles and a dazzling array of displays.
"Hey, if you ever need to use it in the future, I can lend it to you," Mo Yongxing said helplessly. Without Qin Yu teaching him the method, the Dragon-Seeking Disk in his hands was no different from a piece of wood.
"Deal!"
Qin Yu had been waiting for Mo Yongxing to say these words. After all, there was no agreement on how long the loan would last. Borrowing it for a day was borrowing, borrowing it for a month was borrowing, borrowing it for a year was still borrowing, and borrowing it for ten or eight years was also borrowing.
"Come here, all of you, and see if this is truly a magical artifact."
Mo Yongxing and Qin Yu's conversation was relatively quiet, only Li Bing and the others who came with Qin Yu, Zhang Hua, and Tong Min, heard it. However, the shop owner, Qian, and the two masters, Pang and Ji, had no idea what they were talking about.
Li Bing looked at Qin Yu with a strange gaze, filled with curiosity. What was Mo Yongxing's identity? He was the young master of the Mo family. Judging from their conversation, it seemed like Mo Yongxing was somewhat accommodating towards Qin Yu. This was a rare occurrence with Mo Yongxing. Could it be that this Qin Yu also had a significant background?
