Farr left that night and did not stay overnight.
Once Farr left, Chen Zhao and Fali felt much more at ease.
The two of them felt as if they were meeting their parents. They always felt uncomfortable as Farr asked questions here.
Fali walked around the living room in her bra, while Chen Zhao sat on the sofa in his big underpants.
Chen Zhao flipped through the appraisal book in his hand. To be honest, most of the contents in it had a hypnotic effect.
Chen Zhao would rather read medical books than read this treasure appraisal book.
But Chen Zhao paused and looked at the introduction on the page.
On this page is a color photo: The Lost Star of Doom, a huge black diamond.
There is also a note next to the photo that the photo is a computer-generated image and is not the real lost star of doom.
The page on the right is an introduction to the Lost Star of Doom.
The star of bad luck was discovered in Africa in 1820 and weighed 380 carats.
The expedition that discovered the black diamond massacred the tribe that owned the diamond, and one hundred and sixty-three natives died.
The blood-stained black diamond was then brought back to England, polished by the most skilled British technicians at the time, and finally made into a pendant.
But after the technician completed the processing of the black diamond, he lost both hands due to an accident.
The pendant was obtained by a nobleman, but soon a fire burned down the nobleman and his manor.
Then the pendant fell into the hands of a prostitute, but the prostitute died in the hands of the customer.
Next, this pendant inlaid with black diamonds was passed around one after another, but every owner had a bad ending.
The name of the Star of Doom began to spread, and eventually no one dared to collect the Star of Doom anymore.
Finally, the Star of Doom was sent to the Royal Museums as an exhibit.
But a fire also broke out in the museum, and the star of misfortune disappeared from people's sight again.
Until 1882, an American businessman bought the Star of Misfortune from a market scoundrel for $800 and planned to bring it to the United States.
The American businessman was aboard a brigantine, the Mary St. Frisco, destined for New York.
However, the Mary St. Frisco failed to reach New York and disappeared in the Pacific Ocean.
In 1883, a passing ship encountered the Mary St. Frisco in the depths of the ocean, and the crew boarded the Mary St. Frisco to check it out.
But the Mary St. Frisco was empty. The cargo transported by the entire ship was intact, and there were no traces of a fight.
And after inspection, it was found that there was sufficient food and fresh water on the ship. Even though the ship had been missing for more than a year, many ingredients were still edible.
But the crew and passengers were all gone, not even a skeleton.
This was also the last time the Mary St. Frisco appeared in people's sight. Since then, no one has seen the ship again.
Some people claimed to have seen the ship, but this statement was not supported by any evidence, so it was ignored.
Even in modern times, some people claimed to have seen the Mary St. Frisco.
There are also some old and blurry photos as evidence of the remarks.
The star of doom also disappeared along with the Mary St. Frisco.
Chen Zhao picked up the tablet and entered Mary St. Frisco in the search bar.
Soon, many pictures popped up, many of them of old ketch boats.
However, there was a picture that caught Chen Zhao's attention. This picture should be a black and white photo taken in the 1960s.
Judging from the distance, they should be more than one kilometer apart.
The ketch in the photo is very old, as if it had just been fished out of the sea. There is still a lot of seaweed hanging on it, and the entire hull is rotten and broken.
"What are you looking at?" Fali approached Chen Zhao and poked her head over.
When she saw the pictures on the tablet, Chen Zhao clearly felt her arms shake slightly.
"Is that it?"
Fali nodded heavily: "Yes, it's this ship! Have you found it?"
"Wanda once found a wooden board with the letters Mary written on it. Do you know the star of bad luck?"
"Star of Doom? What is it?"
"This is it." Chen Zhao handed the appraisal book to Fali.
"This..." Fali frowned.
"Have you really seen it?"
"I once went to a flea market and bought a pendant with black gemstones like this, but I only spent a hundred dollars. Both the shop owner and I thought it was a fake."
"Are you at home now?"
"Wait a minute, I'll get it."
Fali trotted back to the room, and after a moment she took out a pendant. The black diamond inlaid on it was the lost star of doom.
Chen Zhao took a breath, and at this moment Heima suddenly roared at the pendant in Fali's hand.
"Heima, what's wrong?"
"Devil badge, this is a devil badge." Beelzebub also stood up, staring closely at the lost star of doom.
"Master, this demon badge has powerful curse power."
Chen Zhao thought for a while, turned to Fali and said, "Fali, I'm afraid you can no longer have this lost star of doom, it will hurt you."
"Is everything in this book true?"
"There is evil power up there."
"So what do I do with it? Throw it away?"
"Give it to me, I can eat it," Beelzebub said immediately.
"Give it to me, give it to me, I wear it, its power is similar to my power, I can exert its effect." Heima also said, it was obvious that he was eager to get the Star of Doom.
"Is there any way to get rid of the power above and keep the Star of Doom?" Chen Zhao asked.
Beelzebub and Hema shook their heads at the same time: "It cannot be driven away."
Chen Zhao looked at Fali: "Fali, you have two choices now, wear it for Heima, or eat it for Beelzebub."
"Beelzebub ate it? Are you sure you're not mistaken?"
"He just likes to eat weird things like this." Chen Zhao shrugged.
At this moment, Chen Zhao's phone rang, it was Sienna's call.
"Chen, I discovered the identity of the ghost ship. Yesterday, someone on a yacht filmed a clip near the Angel Coast, and it was also posted online. That is the Mary St. Frisco, my The teacher and a dozen witches died on this ghost ship. I advise you to give up that idea. This ghost ship is very scary."
"I'm afraid I have to deal with it." Chen Zhao said, "This ghost ship is coming for Fali."
"Why?"
"Fali bought something incredible. She spent one hundred dollars to buy a 380-carat black diamond that she thought was a fake but was actually a genuine one. This black diamond was the trigger for everything."
"What!?" Sienna screamed: "Why don't I have such luck? Why is this? I feel heartache... I can't survive... I have trouble breathing... "
