"The Zagrama Mountains, where they have lived for generations."
"Embarked on a long journey to find the Muchen Pearl."
"Their footprints are all over the world."
"Just to find the Muchen Pearl that can lift the curse."
Lin Yang looked at Shirley Yang, a deep light flashing in his eyes:
"This also led to the formation of the Mountain Moving Taoists later on."
"Their primary goal is to find the Muchen Pearl and lift the curse on their people, a goal they have passed down from generation to generation with unwavering determination."
Hearing this, Shirley Yang was completely captivated by Lin Yang's words.
Lin Yang looked at Shirley Yang and said:
"I'm sure you also have eye-shaped markings on your body."
"Your father's archaeological work was also in the hope that he could find the Muchen Pearl to help you break the curse."
Shirley suddenly realized and subconsciously patted her back.
She couldn't help but ask, "How do you know all this?"
Lin Yang smiled slightly and said mysteriously:
"Because I am the owner of Pawnshop No. 8."
"There is nothing in this world that I do not know."
He paused and continued:
“But Pawnshop No. 8 is a pawnshop that is quite different from others.”
“Here, you can pawn anything.”
"Including the material possessions you have, your lifespan, your organs, your family ties, your five senses, and even your soul."
"Anything can be pawned if you're willing."
Shirley Yang stared at Lin Yang in shock, as if she had heard something unbelievable.
Lin Yang continued, "Of course, you can exchange anything and any wish at this pawnshop."
"Anything you want, whatever it is, can be exchanged."
He looked at Shirley Yang, his eyes revealing an unfathomable light:
"For example, the Muchen Pearl that your Zagrama generation has always wanted."
"Or we could simply lift the curse from your body."
“These are not problems for me.”
Lin Yang's words seemed to open the door to another world.
Shirley felt as if she had fallen into a dream.
She shook her head, trying to clear her mind.
She couldn't help but ask, "Is everything you're saying true?"
Lin Yang smiled gently:
"Of course, we at Pawnshop No. 8 never cheat."
“Every transaction is fair and just; we never tell lies or deceive our customers.”
Shirley's doubts did not lessen: "Why should I believe you?"
Lin Yang seemed to have anticipated her reaction.
He casually took something out of his pocket and handed it to Shirley Yang: "Why don't you take a look at this first?"
Shirley took the item from Lin Yang's hand and examined it carefully.
It was a giant jade eye, stained with gold, emitting a faint glow.
She felt a slight warmth in her palms, as if an energy was being transmitted through them.
Suddenly, she felt an itch on her back.
It was as if the eyeball-shaped markings were stirring restlessly.
Shirley Yang was startled and looked up at Lin Yang.
Lin Yang smiled and snatched the giant jade eye:
"This thing is the Muchen Pearl."
Lin Yang explained, "The Muchen Pearl is also called the Phoenix Gallbladder."
"Legend has it that it is the gall of a phoenix transformed from the Earth Mother."
"Left behind when the Yellow Emperor ascended to heaven."
“Ancient beings were born from the condensation of their inner elixir or through the creation of heaven and earth.”
"However, in reality, the Muchen Pearl is the eye of the Serpent God."
Shirley asked curiously, "Snake God? What snake god?"
Lin Yang smiled mysteriously: "That's a secret."
He was under Shirley Yang's eager and inquisitive gaze.
He slowly and methodically put away the Muchen Pearl.
Then he said, "Miss Shirley, what do you think? Would you like to have this Muchen Pearl?"
A hint of determination flashed in Shirley Yang's eyes:
"Of course I want it, but what price do I have to pay?"
She is a straightforward person and doesn't like beating around the bush.
Lin Yang smiled slightly, his eyes revealing a profound depth:
"Didn't I say I wanted your soul?"
Shirley Yang was taken aback, a conflicted expression on her face.
The soul—this is no small matter; she needs to think it over carefully.
Seeing Shirley Yang's hesitation, Lin Yang continued:
"As long as you're willing to give your soul."
"I can help you obtain the Muchen Pearl."
Shirley asked in confusion, "What do you mean? Why is it 'obtaining'?"
Lin Yang revealed a playful smile:
“Miss Shirley, your soul is not enough to exchange for the Muchen Pearl.”
"What?" Shirley Yang looked at Lin Yang in surprise.
"You mean, my soul isn't enough to exchange for the Muchen Pearl?"
"Of course." Lin Yang laughed.
"The Muchen Pearl is priceless."
"Of course your soul cannot be exchanged."
"You must think your soul can be exchanged for such treasures."
Shirley Yang suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
Lin Yang continued:
"I know you came to the Dragon Kingdom this time to visit the Jingjue Ancient City."
"If I come along, I'll achieve twice the results with half the effort, so of course you can rest assured."
"I will help you until I find the Muchen Pearl."
Shirley Yang took a deep breath and said:
"Okay, I promise you, I'm willing to pawn my soul."
For Shirley Young
She was willing to do anything to break the curse.
After all, this was the mission she was entrusted with, and also her grandfather's last wish.
Lin Yang nodded in satisfaction:
"Oh, right, about the Oni-gyoku."
"You only need to pay ten million."
Xue Liyang frowned: "Ten million? Isn't that too much?"
Although she is wealthy, ten million is not a small sum for her.
Besides, didn't this guy say he wasn't interested in money?
Is this what they call not being interested in money?
Lin Yang smiled and said, "Miss Shirley, you are a smart person."
"You should know that there is no such thing as a free lunch in this world."
"Besides, the Ghost Jade is priceless; ten million is nothing to you."
"Besides, you're not short of money."
Shirley Yang glared fiercely at Lin Yang.
She clenched her teeth, as if squeezing out a few words from between them:
"Okay, I'll give it to you."
After saying that, he took out his phone and started transferring money.
