Chapter 158 Lotus Mark

 In a cafe decorated in European style, a haggard-looking foreigner with blond hair and blue eyes sat opposite Ye Bai.

"Mr. Ye is really young and promising. I really didn't expect that Mr. Ye is so young." Jude Kao boasted in fluent Chinese.

Ye Bai took a sip of coffee and smiled: "What does Mr. Qiu want from me?"

Jude Kao's face straightened: "I heard that Third Master is going to sell sanitary napkin craftsmanship. I want to cooperate with Third Master."

"This matter should not come to me, Lu Shun is responsible."

"Of course I have dealt with Mr. Shun, but there are some things that I have to discuss with Mr. Third."

"Aren't Americans always straight-forward when it comes to talking about things? Don't you have a character like that of an American?"

Judecao stared into Ye Bai's eyes: "Master Ye was joking. Here's the thing. I want to ask Master Ye to help me lay a grave."

Going to the grave?

Ye Bai did not refuse and asked: "What tomb?"

"Japanese tombs, large tombs from a thousand years ago, will contain a lot of treasures!"

Ye Bai took another sip of coffee and remained silent.

Jie Jiu has found out about Jude Kao's experience in China. A year ago, he was working as a teacher at a missionary school in Changsha, but he was secretly engaged in selling cultural relics behind his back.

This person has been proficient in Chinese culture since childhood and is obsessed with the art of immortality. A few months ago, he organized a group of people to go overseas, but only half of them came back.

I want to go to Japan.

"Why do you want to drag me along?"

"To be honest, this tomb is in Japan. I have organized many people to go there, but they encountered supernatural things, and the damage was extremely heavy. Ye Sanye is the head of the Nine Sects, and his methods are superb. He should be able to deal with this kind of tomb.

Strange things under the tomb."

After saying that, Judeka revealed the black lotus mark on his forearm.

Ye Bai opened his strange eyes and saw that the mark was wrapped with thick black death energy, which was similar to the resentful spirit he met in the underwater tomb.

"Everyone who narrowly escaped from the tomb at that time had this lotus mark. I suspect it is a curse in the tomb. I wonder if the third master has a way to solve it."

"This tomb is far away in Japan. I'm not interested. As for the curse, I can lift it, but the price will not be small."

For Ye Bai, he never went to the grave for gold and silver.

What's more, this ancient tomb is in Japan, and it takes a lot of time to go back and forth. Ye Bai can't bear to torment himself like this.

The most important thing is that this Jude test is not credible.

If you take him to the grave for the first time when you meet him, do you think he is a fool?

Jude Kao showed joy: "Okay, as long as this mark can be removed, the reward will definitely satisfy sir."

Ye Bai took out the talisman left by Sun Guofu and put it on Jude Kao's arm. The talisman instantly ignited, and a black energy disappeared along with the lotus mark.

"Master Ye is indeed very capable."

"Don't get too excited yet. This talisman is rare, costing one hundred thousand dollars!" Ye Bai threw the burned talisman into the trash can.

"One hundred thousand dollars?" Judecao's eyes widened.

Nowadays, the value of oceanic and French currencies has depreciated sharply. Only the US dollar is still strong. One hundred thousand US dollars is not a small number. He, Jude, will not be able to come up with so much cash in just a short while.

"Third Master, isn't this thing too expensive?"

"You just said that the remuneration would satisfy me, even if it's not even 100,000 US dollars?" Ye Bai's tone was extremely disdainful.

Jude couldn't express his pain during the exam. Thinking of the instructions given to him by the top management of the trip, he gritted his teeth, signed a check for one hundred thousand dollars, and handed it to Ye Bai.

Ye Bai solemnly took the check and put it into his chest pocket, then took out a few more talismans and lined them up on the table.

"Do you want more? Large quantities will give you the best price!"

Judekao seemed to be constipated, his face turned red, and he finally said: "Thank you, Third Master, I don't need it anymore."

"What a pity." Ye Bai had no choice but to put away the talisman. This kind of profitable business is rare.

"Is there anything else? If nothing happens, I'll leave first." Ye Bai was about to get up, but was stopped by Jude Kao again.

"We also brought something out of the tomb during this trip, and I hope the third master can hold it in his hands."

Jude Kao brought out a dark green Buddha statue. This Buddha statue sat on a lotus flower, with three heads and six arms. One side had the color of a glaring King Kong, one side had a kind smile, but the smile was weird, and the other side had no expression at all.

From the perspective of the different eyes, the Buddha statue is surrounded by black energy and appears to be soaring into the sky. It is definitely a dangerous thing.

Moreover, Jude did not dare to touch this Buddha statue with his hands during the entire exam.

"This thing is too evil, I can't see it." Ye Bai shook his head.

Seeing that Ye Bai wanted to leave again, Judekao said quickly: "Third Master, I got the lotus curse just because I touched this thing. Why don't you take some time to take a look?"

"Is there any reward?"

Jude Kao gritted his teeth and said: "Yes!"

Ye Bai smiled and had some guesses about the person behind Jude Kao.

Since that person wanted him to come into contact with the Black Lotus Buddha Statue, there was no harm in giving it a try.

Just when Ye Bai reached out and approached the Buddha statue, the Black Lotus Buddha statue suddenly trembled slightly, as if he was very afraid of Ye Bai.

Jude Kao was also shocked by this scene. This thing could actually move on its own!

Ye Bai frowned and put his hand on the Buddha statue. The surrounding black air immediately converged into the Buddha statue, and the Buddha statue also became still.

Under the rosette of the Buddha statue, Buddhist scriptures written in Japanese are engraved, which seems to be to suppress something.

"Whose tomb did you steal?"

"Master Kobo."

Ye Bai nodded and knew something about Japan's Kobo Daishi. This man was born more than a thousand years ago, also known as Kukai. Because he admired Buddhism, he studied in the Tang Dynasty for a long time, and later returned to Japan under Emperor Daigo.

, bestowed with the posthumous title Master of Propaganda!

It is said that this person has profound Buddhist teachings and can exorcise and subjugate demons.

The carving craftsmanship of this lotus Buddha statue seems to be in the style of the Tang Dynasty. I wonder if Kobo Daishi brought it back to Japan from the Tang Dynasty.

"After reading the things, there is nothing unusual. It's time to pay!"

Ye Bai threw the Buddha statue away, stretched out his hand, and asked Jude Kao for money.

"Third Master, this is too fast." Jude Kao looked ugly and straightened the Buddha statue with gloves.

I wonder if my family can give me some subsidies if I lose money this time.

Putting another check worth 100,000 US dollars into his pocket, Ye Bai stood up and said, "Mr. Qiu, happy cooperation!"

Everyone stayed in Shanghai for a few more days, and Shunzi successfully sold the craftsmanship of the sanitary napkin to a Frenchman, and the price barely met Ye Bai's expectations.

During this period, Jude never showed up for the exam once.

Perhaps, he has completed his mission.

After the matters in Shanghai were settled, Ye Bai was ready to return to Changsha with Shunzi and other brothers and Shanjing and his daughter.

The day before departure, Ye Bai unexpectedly received an invitation inviting him to participate in an auction.

The red invitation is stamped with gold, and the cover has only four large characters: "Crescent Hotel!"

Is there also a Crescent Hotel in Shanghai?

The person who came to deliver the invitation was a clerk from the Crescent Hotel. I found out by asking Ye Bai.

It turns out that there is also a branch of Crescent Hotel in Shanghai, and the person in charge is the second shopkeeper of the Yin family.

This auction is held every three years, and the auctions are all rare treasures.
