Sure enough, there was a crystal necklace in a pink gift box.
A girl who knew the goods exclaimed in surprise,"Cartier sapphire, this necklace is worth a million. My God, this Zhang Peng is really going all out!”
It was worth a million yuan. This was not a small sum. Her best friends did not dare to say anything.
This thing was quite precious. Without Xia Wan He's permission, they didn't dare to ask for it.
However, Xia Wanhe picked up the necklace and glanced at it, shaking her head and saying,"The quality is not bad, but the taste is too bad. Wouldn't it be showing off if you wear this necklace?”
"If any of you like it, take it.”
Immediately, her best friends were envious and started fighting over it.
Seeing this, Xia Wan He only smiled and turned to open the other gifts.
Actually, she didn't really care about the value of the gift.
She liked the feeling of opening presents because today was her birthday.
As time passed, the gifts were opened one by one. There were watches, cosmetics, and even expensive items such as cars.
However, none of them could move Xia Wan He's heart.
Her close friends were all stunned at the moment, but they felt that Xia Wanhe's performance was natural.
Because Xia Wanhe was the princess of the Xia Corporation and the pearl of the chairman, this villa worth hundreds of millions was given to her by her parents on her birthday.
Although the gifts sent by her classmates were very expensive, Xia Wanhe really didn't need them.
At this moment, it was all for her best friends.
In the end, an ordinary wooden box appeared in front of him.
The box was very ordinary, without any decorations, but Xia Wan He remembered that this seemed to be sent by Xu Cong.
Because it was too ordinary, it was more eye-catching.
When she saw the box, she could not help but think of the fair-skinned, shy, and barely spoken classmate who sat diagonally opposite her during her four years in university.
Immediately, Xia Wan He picked up the box and slowly opened it. Immediately, an exquisite humanoid wood carving appeared in front of her.
At first glance, this wood carving looked ordinary.
However, upon closer inspection, one could see that the patterns on it were fine and the carvings were lifelike.
She couldn't help but take the wood carving in her hand and scrutinize it.
A ferocious face, rough arms, strong muscles, and a chain wrapped around his body. It was as if he was about to come alive.
Especially the artistic conception that appeared on the wood carving. It was as if it wanted to drag people's souls into the underworld.
Xia Wan He even heard the clattering sound of the iron chains being dragged.
"Xiaxia, Xiaxia, are you okay?”
At this moment, she heard the voices of her best friends. She suddenly came back to her senses and wiped her forehead. She realized that there was a layer of fine sweat.
This wooden carving was simply too terrifying!
With just one glance, she broke out in a cold sweat.
"I'm fine."
Xia Wan He shook her head and couldn't help but laugh bitterly. She was actually shocked by a wooden carving and broke out in a cold sweat. It was simply too unbelievable.
"Who gave this gift to you? You actually carved such an ugly monster. Isn't it too rude?”
"That's right. This statue looks very ferocious. How can you give this to me on my birthday?”
"I don't think this student's motive is pure. He's trying to scare Xiaxia on purpose.”
……
Xia Wanhe smiled and shook her head,"Actually, I think this gift is quite special."”
"You all know the legend of the underworld, right?”
Her best friends quickly nodded. One of them said,"Yes, I know. It's said that after a person dies, their soul will go to the underworld, and there are Yama, Judges, and the Bridge of Helplessness in the underworld.”
Xia Wanhe nodded and said,"This wood carving is the ghost officer of the underworld, the soul capturing envoy, also known as the Yin God."”
"After a person dies, the reapers will come to capture the soul and bring it to the netherworld for trial.”
A close friend named Zhao Wen said disapprovingly,"Xiaxia, there's no such thing as hell in this world.”
"If there really is a netherworld, why haven't all the demons and ghosts in the world been captured?”
The rest of the people agreed. If there really was a netherworld, a ghost officer or a Yin God, they wouldn't be scared by the ghosts in the world.
Since a few years ago, there had been demons and ghosts coming and going to kill people in Shen Cheng. Especially at night, there was almost no one on the streets.
The officials stood out and warned the ordinary people not to go out on the streets after night fell.
It was enough to show how rampant these demons and ghosts were. Even the government had no way to deal with them and could not completely eliminate them.
"That's different. We don't know where the demons and ghosts in our world come from. Many of them didn't die a normal death.”
"Moreover, the ability of the Soul Capturer is limited. How can he have so much energy to care about this?”
"Fortunately, there are demon hunters in the government and Taoist priests and monks among the people. They are all eliminating these demons and ghosts. Otherwise, we can still celebrate my birthday here easily!”
Xia Wan He didn't continue to insist on this matter. Instead, she smiled and shook her head.
Knock, knock, knock…
At this moment, an ear-piercing knock on the door suddenly broke the silence in the room.
In an instant, everyone fell silent. They looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
Zhao Wen took out her phone and looked at the time. She realized that it was one o'clock in the morning. No matter how she thought about it, the knocking on the door at this time gave off a strange atmosphere.
"Xiaxia, do you have any guests coming at this hour?”
One of her best friends asked hesitantly.
"No, it's already one in the morning. Who dares to go out on the streets?”
After Xia Wanhe finished speaking, her face instantly turned pale.
Since it wasn't a human, it must be a monster or something.
Everyone was so frightened that they did not dare to make a sound. They all shrank into their rooms with terrified expressions on their faces.
"Don't, don't be afraid. My house has a house guarding talisman given by my grandfather, and the exorcism Buddha beads that my father specially invited back from the White Horse Temple.”
"Even if ghosts come, they can't get in.”
Xia Wan He forced herself to be calm and said.
