Chapter 7657
Evil Object
Chen Shaocong was so frightened by his father that he almost cried.
He choked up, crying incoherently, "Dad, I really bought it at an antique stall. I didn't lie to you. That guy said it was made from a Tyrannosaurus Rex tooth fossil dug up on the grassland. He also said it could ward off evil spirits and bring peace. Otherwise, I wouldn't have spent a million to buy this thing."
"Dad, just believe me, I really didn't know there was anything wrong with this thing. If I had known, I wouldn't have worn it around my neck. I've been having a lot of bad luck lately."
Xiao Chen smiled; he didn't believe a single word the kid said.
However, that's their business and has little to do with him. He can only offer a few words of advice; whether others believe it or not is their business, and he can't control that.
He didn't expose Chen Shaocong's lie, but looked at Chen Jianguo and said, "Don't dwell on this. If you don't believe me, just find someone trustworthy to test it. You'll know immediately whether it's true or not."
"What I'm about to tell you is that this thing is very strange. Wearing it for a long time won't just bring bad luck; it could very well ruin your family. After you get it tested, just throw it away immediately."
Having said all he could, he turned and left with Yun Yuyan.
I've achieved my goal for today, and I'm in a pretty good mood.
Over there, the monkey knelt on the ground, its eyes blank.
One million!
A painting worth a million dollars, just taken away like that?
The problem was that he was frustrated, but he didn't dare to ask for it. Xiao Chen didn't even care about the Chen family; he was definitely a big shot. He was just a nobody. If he dared to ask someone like that for something, he would be courting death.
Chen Shaocong remained kneeling there, his mind filled with Xiao Chen's words.
Wearing it for too long will lead to the destruction of your family and death!
No wonder he's been having nightmares lately, dreaming of an old woman dressed in a funeral shroud who is missing a tooth and is saying something to him, but he just can't hear her.
I thought it was because of too much pressure, but I never expected it was because of this pendant.
Thinking of this, a chill ran from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, and he couldn't help but vomit.
If this is really a human tooth, it's disgusting that I've been wearing it for so long.
Thinking of this, he viciously ripped the necklace off his neck and threw it hard on the ground.
Chen Jianguo stared at the pendant lying on the ground, his face deathly pale. If what Xiao Chen said was true, then his family was truly lucky today.
If you know nothing, your family will be destroyed sooner or later.
He walked over and examined the teeth on the pendant closely, finding it increasingly absurd.
There was a tiny black hole at the bottom of that tooth.
If Xiao Chen hadn't reminded him, he would never have noticed.
This is a mark left by tooth decay, with a slightly blackened mark around the edge.
He didn't know if dinosaurs had cavities, but he felt that this thing was more like the teeth of humans who ate too much sugar.
He had seen it at the dentist's office.
It's ridiculous that the thing his son Chen Shaocong treated like a treasure was actually a human tooth, and a decayed one at that.
Just thinking about it makes me feel disgusted.
Just thinking about it makes me feel uneasy.
However, he still picked up the pendant and wrapped it in toilet paper. He had a guess, but dared not confirm it. Anyway, he couldn't just throw it away; he might need it later.
After packing the things, he looked at Chen Shaocong, who was still gagging, and felt a little dizzy.
What kind of son did she give birth to?
It is the father's fault if he raises his child without teaching him. Over the years, he has only been focused on making money and has forgotten about educating his child. Alas! In an instant, he seemed to have aged a lot.
"go home!"
With a weary and helpless voice, Chen Jianguo shouted.
He turned and walked towards the car.
Chen Shaocong struggled to stand up, but his legs were too weak.
I was mainly scared.
The matter of that pendant was truly bizarre. Chen Shaocong was too exhausted to show off at the moment, his mind filled with that terrifying nightmare.
Chen Xue glanced at her disappointing younger brother, then helplessly helped him up and led him to her car.
"My son!"
After taking only a few steps, Chen Jianguo suddenly turned around and asked, "How long have you been wearing that pendant?"
This time, he wasn't angry; his voice was very calm.
Chen Shaocong thought for a moment: "It was probably about three months. I started wearing it after my grandmother passed away, but I really didn't expect this thing to be..."
He dared not utter that word; just saying it made him feel nauseous and terrified.
How could such an outrageous thing happen in this world? Someone actually uses human teeth to make pendants and calls them Tyrannosaurus Rex tooth fossils.
This is intentional harm.
"Sigh, let's go." Chen Jianguo didn't say anything more, got into the car, closed his eyes, and the driver started the car and sped away.
Chen Xue also drove behind them.
Chen Shaocong sat in the back seat, silent, seemingly lost in thought.
The first thing Chen Jianguo did upon returning home was to take the pendant to a top-tier appraisal institute for authentication.
Although he was still somewhat willing to believe Xiao Chen's words, this matter concerned the safety of his entire family. Moreover, they had offended Xiao Chen today, and it was hard to say whether Xiao Chen was deliberately trying to annoy them.
That evening, at the Chen family villa.
The investigation results are in.
Chen Xue and Chen Shaocong were both sitting on the sofa, with Chen Jianguo sitting opposite them. On the table was an appraisal report, which had been examined by top experts. This time, they both believed it.
"Dad, what was the result?" Chen Xue asked cautiously.
Chen Jianguo gave a bitter smile: "To be honest, I don't dare to look at it. I've just left the test results there since I got them back, but I don't have the courage to look at them. What do you think we should do if what Mr. Xiao said is true? This matter shouldn't just end like this, right?"
"Even if we throw that pendant away, will our family stop having bad luck? After all, that thing might be a curse, and the curse has already afflicted our family."
"Dad, I've been thinking about it, and that guy surnamed Xiao is probably just trying to scare us. I just don't understand, who the hell is so bold as to use human teeth to fake Tyrannosaurus Rex teeth fossils? He could have used other animals' teeth too."
After calming down, Chen Shaocong began to doubt Xiao Chen's words. He still trusted his own judgment, after all, he had made quite a few bargains in the past.
Although he had a bad temper and a terrible personality, people on the antique street knew that he had some skills.
“I also think my brother’s words make sense. That Xiao Chen is about the same age as my brother. What could he possibly know? Maybe he’s just trying to scare us.” Chen Xue also thought Chen Shaocong’s words made a lot of sense.
"Then you two take a look." Chen Jianguo hoped his daughter and son were right, so he wouldn't have to worry about anything. (End of Chapter)
