Chapter 55: Jade Pendant
In fact, I was a little nervous when I saw the Taoist priest coming.
But I managed to calm myself down in a short time.
Maybe because I didn’t speak quickly enough, my cousin next to me pushed me. I looked at him.
"Xiaoyang, what are you waiting for? Tell me now."
I was stunned for a few seconds, and then I said to the Taoist priest: "Master..."
But this time, before I could finish my words, the Taoist priest interrupted me.
"You don't have to say it."
Seeing that the Taoist priest looked cold and indifferent, I couldn't help wondering if he was angry.
I stared at the Taoist priest...
The Taoist priest said in a sullen tone: "With such a heavy yin energy in his body, it seems he won't live for many days."
Before I could reply, my cousin suddenly said in a carefree manner, "Master, you can't just stand by and watch me die. I only have this one nephew."
"Master, you must not stand by and watch someone die."
My cousin was extremely anxious, and I felt quite touched when I saw him like this.
After all, my uncle still thinks of me.
In fact, I suspect that the reason why I have too much negative energy is because of that little girl.
My cousin was wailing and howling, and the Taoist priest soon couldn't stand his behavior anymore, so he said to him angrily, "Shut up."
My cousin immediately shut his mouth obediently and stood aside without saying anything.
The Taoist priest's eyes continued to fall on me, as if he was examining me, trying to see through my heart. After staring at me for a while, the Taoist priest slowly said, "Chen Yang, where did you go tonight?"
My heart sank. Did the Taoist see through my flaw so quickly?
I originally wanted to hide it, but now it seems that there is no need to hide it, so I said straight to the point: "I went to the cemetery tonight."
The Taoist priest frowned slightly and looked at me, as if he was examining me and trying to see through me.
The look in his eyes made me feel a little uncomfortable.
I couldn't help but ask, "Master, is there something on my face?"
The Taoist priest retracted his gaze and said to me: " There is , but there is something unclean in your heart."
I:"……"
I was speechless after hearing what the Taoist priest said. It seemed that he was trying to imply that I had something to hide.
My uncle couldn't help himself at this time, and continued: "Xiaoyang, why didn't you inform your uncle and go to that damn place again?"
I rolled my eyes at my uncle and said, "Uncle, just look at how many times I called you."
My uncle took out his phone and looked at it, then said to me embarrassedly: "Xiaoyang, I'm sorry, my phone is turned off."
My cousin and I exchanged a few words.
The Taoist priest became a little impatient again and walked out.
My cousin and I realized what was happening and quickly caught up with him.
"Master, where are you going?"
I followed behind.
"Chen Yang, I will give you one last chance. You'd better tell the truth, otherwise I can't help you."
The Taoist priest's voice already contained a hint of threat.
Seeing me like this, my cousin may have realized that I was hiding something, so he quickly urged me, "Xiaoyang, if you have anything to hide, don't hide it from Master. Tell me what you have to say."
The Taoist priest is not an ordinary person. In fact, I should have known this long ago. Some things cannot be hidden from the Taoist priest.
Finally, I didn't waste any time and just took out the jade pendant.
After the jade pendant was taken out, it was still flashing with a faint luster under the light .
Just by looking at it like this, I knew that this jade pendant was not an ordinary thing. My uncle quickly took the jade pendant from my hand and stared at it carefully for a few seconds. Then my uncle said to me: "Xiaoyang, this is a good thing. Where did you get it from?"
My cousin asked me excitedly.
“Ahem…”
At this time, a slight cough sounded.
My cousin immediately came to his senses and gave the jade pendant to the Taoist priest. The Taoist priest took the jade pendant in his hand and looked at it for a few seconds.
"Master..."
I called out "Master Taoist" and prepared to continue.
The Taoist priest pressed his hand down and told me not to say anything more.
I had no choice but to wait. I felt inexplicably nervous. After all, Yuan Xiaohua was still in the jade pendant. If the Taoist priest wanted to do something to Yuan Xiaohua, Yuan Xiaohua would definitely not be able to withstand it.
After all, the Taoist priest’s methods are not to be underestimated.
Time passed by, and the Taoist priest said to his uncle, "Go and pour me a cup of tea."
When my uncle heard that he had the opportunity to be attentive first, he dared not delay any longer and immediately ran to pour tea.
After my uncle left, the Taoist priest suddenly took a step closer to me, and his sharp eyes fell on me, which made me feel a little uneasy. After a few seconds, the Taoist priest said to me: "Put it away..."
I don’t know why, but when I heard these two words, my heart, which had been hanging in the air, suddenly settled down, and I stared at the Taoist priest.
The Taoist priest also stared at me, his eyes flickering.
I vaguely felt that the Taoist priest seemed to have seen something.
I opened my mouth to ask something, but the Taoist priest didn't even give me a chance to ask.
He interrupted me and said, "No need to tell me, I know everything."
Just when I wanted to say something more, I saw my cousin coming over with tea in his hand.
When he got closer, my uncle said with a flattering smile on his face: "Master, please drink your tea, please don't burn your mouth."
The Taoist priest looked at his uncle speechlessly, then turned and walked out.
My cousin called out to the Taoist priest, who said without turning around, "Don't follow me. I'm going back now."
"Master, what should we do about this matter?"
"Wait for me for two days."
After the Taoist priest finished speaking, he gave me the jade pendant.
I was a little dazed, but still took the jade pendant.
I don't know what the Taoist priest is up to, and I'm a little confused by his actions.
I held the jade pendant in my hand, and a hint of coolness quickly came over me.
I immediately put the jade pendant away.
My cousin called me and said, "Xiaoyang, why are you still standing there? Come over here and see Master off."
I nodded, followed him, and sent the Taoist priest away with my cousin.
As my cousin watched the Taoist priest leave, he kept a smile on his face. The smile on his face gradually disappeared after the Taoist priest completely disappeared.
But he suddenly pulled me inside, looking very mysterious.
"What's the matter, uncle?"
I couldn't help but ask.
My cousin's eyes fell on me.
"Xiaoyang, my uncle is going to ask you something very seriously. You must answer him truthfully."
I nodded and said, "Don't worry, uncle, I will answer truthfully and will never lie to you."
My cousin rolled his eyes and suddenly said to me, "Xiaoyang, tell me the truth, where did you get that jade pendant?"
