Chapter 178 Where did the beads go?(1/2)

Chen Dong hugged his fists and said to Aunt Lu: "Auntie, I hope you put the overall situation first. What I want to save is millions of Shuanglong people. Think about it, even if you leave Buddhist beads, will the upcoming disaster not endanger Luzhu? Maybe we all cannot survive by then, so how can we talk about future happiness?"

Aunt Lu was stunned. She put Luzhu on the bed and said for a while: "Okay, I'll take you there."

Aunt Lu took Chen Dong, Mrs. Lu and Lu Zhu to Shuanglong Mountain.

Chen Dong couldn't help but ask: "Auntie, did you put the Buddhist beads on the mountain?"

Aunt Lu nodded: "It's in the Shuanglong Temple."

It turned out that since Lu Zhu's father passed away, Aunt Lu has been confident about the harm of Buddhist beads. In order not to allow the harm to continue to Lu Zhu's generation, she hid the Buddhist beads in the Shuanglong Temple.

Since Aunt Lu's husband passed away, Aunt Lu often came to the mountains to burn incense and gradually believed in Buddhism.

Aunt Lu told Chen Dong that in fact, the Shuanglong Temple was originally established by her ancestors. Since it was said that Buddhist beads were spiritual objects of the Long family, her ancestors worshipped Shuanglong in order to prevent future generations from being affected by disasters.

Chen Dong knew that the so-called two dragons refer to the Dragon Emperor and the Dragon Emperor. But in Chen Dong's heart, he had no good thoughts about the Dragon Emperor.

Lu Daniel came to the mouth of one of the dragons, stretched into her arms, and slowly touched her.

Gradually, Aunt Lu's face became increasingly ugly. She touched her for a while, pulled her arm back, and looked dazed: "It's gone, the Buddhist beads are gone."

Chen Dong hurriedly asked, "Auntie, think about it, are you sure the Buddhist beads are placed in the dragon's mouth?"

"I put it into my stomach from the dragon's mouth, but I won't slip in. I touched it at that time."

Chen Dong looked at Diaolong's abdomen and used the ability to open and close the statue, but it was empty inside and there were no Buddhist beads.

Mrs. Lu hurriedly said, "Mom, think about it again, did you put it elsewhere?"

Aunt Lu shook her head and said, "I have followed your grandmother to Shuanglong Mountain to worship since I was a child. This can be said to be my spiritual sustenance. Although my mother later believed in Buddhism, there is no temple in Shuanglong City, only here, how can my mother forget it?"

Chen Dong thought about it and asked quickly: "Auntie, have you been with someone else before?"

Aunt Lu thought for a while and said, "In the past... I often came with my brothers and sisters of the Luo family, and my brothers and sisters of the Luo family also liked to worship Buddha."

Chen Dong hurriedly asked: "Who are the brothers and sisters of the Luo family? Did she see you hiding the Buddhist beads in the statue?"

Mrs. Lu said: "The brother and sister of the Luo family that my mother mentioned is the wife of Luo Daye, the one who passed the level, you should know him."

"Is it Luo Daye's wife?" Chen Dong was stunned.

Aunt Lu nodded: "Yes, Luo Daye's ancestral stonemason craftsmanship has carved many tombstones over the years. The Luo family's younger brothers and sisters said that when they saw him carving those things, they felt furious. This girl is timid, so she wanted to ask for protection from a god."

Chen Dong said: "Okay, I'll go find her."

As he said that, Chen Dong quickly walked down the mountain. Mrs. Lu hurriedly followed him and said, "Brother Chen, don't force me to find someone, after all, we can't be sure."

Chen Dong nodded, looked back at Lu Zhu and said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I will try to break the harm that Buddhist beads bring to your descendants. Believe me, I can definitely do it."

Mrs. Lu nodded: "I believe in you."

Chen Dong used the ability of the Silver Dragon Flying Sky and appeared in front of Luo Daye's stonemason shop in a blink of an eye.

When Chen Dong came, Luo Daye was carving a tombstone. In recent years, although some towns in the countryside have begun to manage ashes in centralized management, and the deceased people no longer enter the collection after cremation, but store them in the ashes built by each village, most of them still choose tombs. Some of the cemeteries are in large areas, demarcated in the villages, and some are in their own ancestral tombs. Since the pace of rural urbanization has just begun and large areas of land have not been planned yet, the tombstone business is still booming.

Chen Dong came to Luo Daye and squatted down.

Luo Daye slowly raised his head and saw Chen Dong. He stood up and said, "Brother Chen, it's you. Why don't you say anything when you come? Just sit inside."

Luo Daye invited Chen Dong to the shop, washed his hands, and then shook it with Luo Daye, then poured tea and asked Chen Dong what he wanted.

Due to Chen Dong's performance in the quarterly championship championship, Luo Daye and other heroes were all impressed by him.

"That's right, Brother Luo, is your sister-in-law here?"

"Are you looking for my wife? She doesn't come to the shop very much. She is timid. When she sees me carving these tombstones, she says she is crazy. She can't sleep at night and always dreams of ghosts."

"That's right, I want to know about a Buddhist bead from her."

"Buddhist beads?"

"Well, Luo Daye think about it, have you seen such a bead?"

Luo Daye thought about it and shook his head. He told Chen Dong that he had never seen his wife have such Buddhist beads.

Then, Luo Daye called his wife.

"Wife, aren't you a fan of Brother Chen? Your opportunity is here, come to the shop."

Sure enough, more than ten minutes later, an electric car stopped outside, and then a woman in her early thirties walked in. The woman was not tall and slightly fat, wearing a string of jade Buddha pendants around her neck. While walking in, she said, "What opportunity, Da Luo, I think you don't want me to sleep anymore, and you will take on this kind of carving job."

As soon as the woman entered the door, she saw Chen Dong, screamed in surprise, quickly covered her mouth, looked at her again in disbelief, rushed over, and shouted: "You... are you Chen Dong?"

Chen Dong smiled slightly.

The woman quickly shook hands with him, looking very excited: "I admire you so much, Chen... Chen Yingxiong."

Chen Dong hurriedly said, "Sister-in-law, don't do this."

Luo Daye smiled and said, "This is my wife. She is so strange. I have been participating in the level-breaking program for some time, but she never gave me a good face and said that she would delay business by going through the level-breaking program. But after watching the season-long championship competition, he became obsessed with this program and talked about you in my ear every night."

Chen Dong smiled: "Sister-in-law is so interesting. Brother Luo is also a hero who has passed the level."

Mrs. Luo spat: "What kind of hero he is? I don't think he is worthy of carrying shoes to Brother Chen."

Luo Daye said: "Okay, my wife, I'm not just a chat. Brother Chen wants to ask about Buddhist beads."

Mrs. Luo's face changed slightly.

Chen Dong hurriedly asked, "Sister-in-law has really seen a Buddhist bead?"

Mrs. Luo hurriedly said, "What Buddhist beads are, I...I don't understand what you are talking about."

Seeing her expression change, Chen Dong knew that she was lying, and shook her head: "Sister-in-law, I've gone to see the auntie Lu. I think you should know her."

When Mrs. Luo heard him talk about Aunt Lu, she suddenly looked dizzy: "Have she told you all?"

Chen Dong nodded.

Mrs. Luo had no choice but to say: "I took the Buddhist beads, but I... I have sold them."

Chen Dong was stunned.

When Luo Daye heard that there was such a Buddhist bead. And as his wife and Chen Dong meant that the Buddhist bead was not a good way, he hurriedly said, "Wife, it's someone else's thing, how can you sell it?"

Mrs. Luo touched the pendant on her chest and said, "Follow you, I haven't even bought a gold necklace for me over the years..."

“Didn’t you buy one for you last year?”

"Last year? It was no longer popular last year. Now look at the glamorous women in the city, who doesn't wear jade or jade."

Chen Dong looked at the pendant on her chest and asked, "I wonder where my sister-in-law sold the Buddhist beads?"

Mrs. Luo looked at Chen Dong and squirted and said, "I sold it to an antique shop in the provincial capital."

Luo Daye was so angry that he stomped his feet: "Shuanglong City doesn't have an antique shop. If it's a good thing, would Boss Zhang not give a price?"

Mrs. Luo said: "Boss Zhang's son is friends with you, and I don't want to go to find him. Besides, I went to the provincial capital last month, and the boss of the antique shop fell in love with my Buddhist beads, and the price was not low. How could I not sell it?"

Luo Daye also wanted to scold his wife. Chen Dong knew that at this time, he said it was useless. He stopped Luo Daye and asked Luo Daye the detailed address of the antique shop. Then he borrowed several hundred yuan from Hongchen and went to the provincial capital overnight.

When leaving the mounting shop, Chen Dong called Hu Die with Hongchen's cell phone. He knew that he had gone to the provincial capital this time, but he didn't know whether it would be smooth or not. If the Buddhist beads change hands again, it would be troublesome. So he told Hu Die that he had something to go to the provincial capital. As for when he would come back, he told her not to worry.

Shuanglong City is only more than 100 kilometers away from the provincial capital. It takes less than two hours to get on the bus. However, after entering the provincial capital, due to traffic congestion, it is very difficult to cross a street every time.

After getting off the car, Chen Dong asked the citizens on the sidewalk and walked towards the antique shop that Mrs. Luo mentioned.

The provincial capital is worthy of being a metropolis, and it is so prosperous than Shuanglong City.

The tall buildings rose from the ground, row by row, row by row, neon lights flashed and luxury cars were as bright as cow hair.

The pedestrians coming and going were all dressed brightly.

The antique shop that Mrs. Luo mentioned is on Haitong Avenue.

This avenue is also the most prosperous street in the provincial capital. It is located in the eastern section of Haitong Avenue and crosses the Cultural Street. It is also the beginning of the Cultural Street. It sits south and has five shops in a row, four of which are open and look very bright. The other is the boss's office.

As soon as you enter the antique shop, you can sort it out. The first room on the left is antiques, the second and third rooms, jewelry and jade, and the third room is calligraphy, painting and crafts.

Although it is an antique shop, there are new and old things inside.

Behind the counter, there was a waitress in each room greeting customers. There were not many customers, but most of them came for jade and jewelry.

Chen Dong walked towards the antique counter. The young service lady behind the counter greeted her smilingly and asked, "What do you need sir?"

Chen Dong said, "I'll take a look." He searched and saw that there were many antiques in front and behind the counter. Most of them were small pieces, such as ancient coins and Yantai vases, and some large pieces were placed outside, such as wooden carved screens on tables, chairs and chairs.

I read it once and there were no Buddhist beads.

The service lady smiled and said, "Sir, it seems that you are here to hunt for treasure."

Chen Dong also smiled: "Yes, but I am a Buddhist. I don't know if I can invite Buddhist treasures."

The waitress turned around and took out a bronze statue and said, "This is a Tibetan Buddhist statue from the Ming Dynasty. Do you like it?"

Chen Dong pretended to appreciate it and nodded repeatedly: "No, very good, but I like some Buddhist supplies, such as wooden fish, Buddhist beads, etc. I wonder if you have them here?"

The waitress shook her head.

Chen Dong was a little regretful, and he walked out slowly and thought to himself: Is Mrs. Luo lying? Unlike, she admires herself so much that she should not lie, so why?

At this moment, as soon as the office door opened, a middle-aged man with a slightly bald forehead and a white face walked out. The middle-aged man looked at Chen Dong and asked, "Brother, are you leaving? Why didn't you find the baby you like?"

The middle-aged man saw Chen Dong coming from the antique counter, so he said this.
