Gao Sheng was confused by Tan Xuan's odd and even way of counting. How could he omit the number when checking the numbers? After struggling for a moment, he finally plucked up the courage to call out to Tan Xuan.
"Mr. Tan, you missed something."
"Shut up!" Tan Xuan glared at Gao Sheng, then continued counting, "Nine..."
Gao Sheng was completely speechless, "Why did you skip to the previous group again?"
"ten!"
Tan Xuan suddenly raised his voice, and some anger suddenly appeared on his expressionless face.
"Master Tan, calm down, I'm here..."
Along with a faint sound, a whirlwind quickly blew in front of Tan Xuan from far to near.
Tan Xuan snorted dissatisfiedly, "You still knew how to come. I thought you were a coward and didn't dare to come out."
"Master Tan, I..."
The whirlwind moved up and down around Tan Xuan's body, turning to whichever way Tan Xuan's face turned.
"What have you been doing and why are you here?" Tan Xuan asked with a cold face to the small whirlwind in front of him.
Gao Sheng looked at Tan Xuan doubtfully and asked in a low voice: "Mr. Tan, who are you talking to? Is it Old Wei?"
"Shut up!" Tan Xuan shouted at Gao Sheng impatiently, and then repeated the question to the tornado in front of him, "What did you do?"
"I, I went to get some news."
The female ghost said in a panic. Although Gao Sheng couldn't see it, it was really standing in front of Tan Xuan. It couldn't escape Tan Xuan's eyes at all, and Tan Xuan's sinking expression was real.
It scared it.
"What did you find out?" Tan Xuan's expression softened slightly, but there was still no smile on his face.
"I found out that the female ghost's name is Xiao Wan. She was killed in an accident by Ye Zicheng in her hometown. In order to take revenge, she bribed the guard on duty there today and was determined to kill Ye Zicheng before midnight today.
take away."
Tan Xuan snorted disdainfully, "It is still determined to take revenge. Does it have the intention? It would not die so unclearly if it had the intention when it was alive."
"Go on," Tan Xuan said to the female ghost.
"Uh...that's all." The female ghost lowered her head, not daring to look at Tan Xuan's expression.
"What! That's all?" Tan Xuan was almost angered by the female ghost's words, and couldn't help curling his lips, "You found out this bit of information after asking around all night? You are not very well informed, and you can't help but use a few clues.
No."
"I'm sorry, my ability is limited, I'm sorry..."
Tan Xuan turned around and waved his hand, "Okay, you can go back. I don't want to hear your apology."
Hearing Tan Xuan let her go, the female ghost trembled, raised her head slightly and took a peek at Tan Xuan, and then asked coyly: "Um... master, you promised to help us find a way yesterday, you have a way
Yet?"
Tan Xuan rolled his eyes at the female ghost, "You still know that I am helping you, not harming you? I even hid on purpose. I'm not doing well, but I won't lose any of the benefits. Here you go!"
"..."
The female ghost didn't dare to answer the question. Now the more she spoke, the more likely she would be wrong. The less she said, the less likely she would be wrong. She chose silence.
"I guess you can't hit a fart with eight sticks when you are alive. I don't know what you do. You are pretending to be pitiful to me. Here, don't make me angry again."
As he said this, Tan Xuan took out a black thread from his pocket, with a bean-sized bead threaded through the black thread. The bead was also black, and it was hard to tell whether it was stone or jade.
"This is..." The female ghost reached out to take it, but Tan Xuan glared back.
"Take it."
Tan Xuan threw the things in his hands to Gao Sheng.
"Wear this on your body. If it wants to get close to you, it can just hide in it instead of riding on your head. This thing can block the magnetic field interference between you, but it will not delay your communication. You want to communicate with her
Just talk to the bead. If one day you both dislike each other and no longer want to cooperate, just throw this thing away."
"Really?" Gao Sheng held the black thread in his hand with a very excited expression. Then he felt a cold sensation on his fingertips and heard the female ghost's scream of surprise.
"It's very comfortable here, it's great, Master Tan, thank you!"
"Thank you……"
Everyone expressed their gratitude to Tan Xuan, and almost burst into tears of gratitude.
Listening to their endless thanks, Tan Xuan snorted and asked, "Do you educated people and ghosts always express your thanks verbally?"
"ah!"
Everyone and the ghost immediately fell silent. Gao Sheng was stunned on the spot, while the female ghost didn't even dare to breathe inside the bead.
"Then how do you want us to thank you?" Gao Sheng asked tentatively.
Tan Xuan glanced at Gao Sheng, "Don't today's educated people understand the ways of the world? I helped you, why don't you be embarrassed?"
"This..." Gao Sheng looked at Tan Xuan with a puzzled face. It seemed that Tan Xuan's request was weak, which surprised him.
"Mr. Tan, I would like to be with you, but I... on your terms, if I give you property, I'm afraid you won't like it. If I give you money directly, you won't be shortchanged by me. I can't do it.
Well, you might misunderstand me as insulting you."
"Don't fart. I'm not imitating Lei Feng in doing good deeds. Why would I be insulting myself by accepting something from you?"
"Then what do you want? Money?" Gao Sheng's body trembled unconsciously. Seeing that Tan Xuan had no intention of correcting him, Gao Sheng knew that he was right, and his heart tightened again, and he asked again: "Then
How much should I give?"
Tan Xuan didn't expect that he would meet such a fool. He suppressed a smile and held out a finger, "I don't want more from you. Aren't you a novelist? I only want one month's royalties from you. Isn't that right?"
Is that too much?"
"Ah!" Gao Sheng looked at Tan Xuan with wide eyes.
Tan Xuan was a little confused. He frowned and said, "What kind of expression are you looking at? Do I want more? Damn it, you are too picky. Go back and ask that brat to provide you with more materials and write more."
That's it, I'm telling you, it's settled, if you want to go back on it, just return the things to me."
"No, no." Gao Sheng waved his hands hurriedly, "Mr. Tan, I don't feel sorry for my monthly manuscript fee, but I didn't expect you to ask for such a small amount from me?"
"What do you mean?" Tan Xuan said that he didn't understand it at all.
"Haha..." Gao Sheng smiled awkwardly, "I just started writing novels. The royalties are very low and I don't have a reader base. I can earn more than a thousand yuan in a month. I didn't dare to agree just now because I was afraid.
I gave you such a small amount of money, but you are angry..."
"Holy crap, are you really telling me this? I thought all those novels made money... Then you can give me a thousand yuan, and I will suffer a loss. Mosquito legs are also meat."
With that said, Tan Xuan stretched out his hand, asking for the debt as early as possible, otherwise who knows whether he will owe Huang.
"this……"
Gao Sheng didn't expect that he would suddenly have such a creditor. It was completely shameless to ask for money. Seeing that he couldn't escape, he had to say with a grimace: "Mr. Tan, I brought more than a thousand yuan today. It's for
Ye Yecheng prepared the red envelope. If I give it to you, I won’t have the red envelope in my wallet for a while. Do you think you can give me a day or two? I’ll give it to you as soon as I get the publishing fee.”
"Stop talking nonsense, I want it now. Ye Yecheng's life is gone. If you want to give him a red envelope, give it to me quickly. Let's settle the deal."
With that said, Tan Xuan took action directly.
"Alas! Alas!"
Gao Sheng wanted to organize, but his clumsy movements could not stop Tan Xuan. Soon Tan Xuan found a thin wad of money from his pocket. Tan Xuan spat and counted, and there were indeed more than ten red cards.
After taking out ten tickets and putting them into his pocket, he put the rest back into Gao Sheng's pocket.
"you……"
Gao Sheng was made to cry without tears. He looked like a gentle and gentle person yesterday, but he turned into a living robber today.
"Okay, if you don't have anything else to do, just go in. While the wedding hasn't changed, hurry up and have something to eat and drink. Don't come here in vain."
"All right."
This was already the case, Gao Sheng could only admit it. Seeing that Tan Xuan had already walked back, he had the courage to ask his doubts.
"Mr. Tan, let me ask you a question, are the two cars you drove yesterday and today really yours?"
Tan Xuan laughed and said, "What do you think? It's okay. I thought you had no temper. Write your novel well. I hope you find someone to become a god. I can brag to others that I know a great writer."
"Tell that ghost friend of yours to stay away for a while and stop joining in the fun that he shouldn't. There's a bad guy coming today. Be careful and he doesn't even know why he's gone."
With that said, Tan Xuan patted his pockets and left with a proud look on his face.
At this time, a group of wedding cars came in from the main entrance of the hotel. Looking at the leading car, which was obviously a grade lower than Tan Xuan's car, Gao Sheng shook his head.
"Even if his two cars are rented, the rent for one day is not cheap. We are already short of money, so why do we still need this little remuneration from me? This is not a thing for rich people."
The female ghost's voice suddenly came to Gao Sheng's ears, "Okay, fat man, don't blame Master Tan. Do you think you have suffered a loss? In fact, you have taken advantage of it. Don't underestimate this inconspicuous black bead.
This is a blessed place where spirits hide. Here I can no longer worry about natural and man-made disasters. He insists on asking for money for our own good. He is taking the initiative to cut off the relationship with us. Otherwise, you may never be able to repay this relationship in your lifetime.
Okay, I have to go out and hide for a while. The female ghost has already followed the wedding car. She is very angry now, and she may take action during the ceremony. I don’t know who the bastard Master Tan is talking about.
She is probably here to table her. If something happens later, you can hide next to Master Tan. As long as he is here, he will definitely protect you. Pay more attention to what happens during this period. When you come back, tell me what happened today.
ah."
"Okay, then you have to be careful."
He didn't hear the female ghost's voice again. Gao Sheng touched the bead strung with black thread. The bead was no longer as cold as before. He tied the black thread behind his wrist and followed the way of Tan Xuan, going against the flow of people welcoming the newcomers.
Returned to the hotel.
The air conditioning in the hotel was fully turned on. Sitting in the banquet hall, Gao Sheng felt uneasy. It seemed that every cool breeze that blew over brought a sense of yin. He was so frightened that although goosebumps appeared on his body, they continued to appear on his forehead.
Khan. Only when he saw Tan Xuan across the table chatting and laughing with the women around him did he feel a little more at ease.
Huang Gang, who had been hanging around the three tables where his classmates were sitting, sat next to Gao Sheng, "Hey, fat man, why are you sweating all the time? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
"No, no, no." Gao Sheng quickly shook his head in denial.
Huang Gang leaned into Gao Sheng's ear and whispered: "Fat man, I advise you not to have any thoughts about those women."
"I didn't put any thought into it."
"It's best if you don't move. If you move, you can only keep it in your heart and don't show it. Don't look at that person who looks so polite. It's just a show. Rich people are cruel. If we really want to offend him, we can't
I can’t bear other people’s anger.”
"Yes, I know." Gao Sheng knew that Huang Gang had misunderstood, thinking that he was peeking at the women around Tan Xuan, but he had no way to explain it, so he could only nodded with a wry smile.
"He's so polite? You didn't see him grabbing the money from my hand." Thinking about Tan Xuan's expression just now, Gao Sheng really couldn't figure out which one was the real Tan Xuan, the Tan Xuan opposite him or the Tan Xuan just now.
mysterious.
"I guess those two are him. Anyone who can see ghosts is abnormal." Gao Sheng grabbed a handful of melon seeds and while cracking them, he glanced at Tan Xuan from time to time, but with Huang Gang's warning
, now he no longer sees it so directly.
Gao Sheng's eyes caught Xiao Di's attention, and Xiao Di leaned on Tan Xuan's shoulder and whispered: "Tan Xuan, what did you just say to Gao Sheng? Why is he sitting across from you and looking at you all the time, and his forehead is sweating?
It’s obvious that something is wrong in his mind.”
"Haha, he has nothing wrong with him. It's just that I defrauded him of his share of the money, and he's afraid he'll be kicked out when he pays the IOU later."
"What! Did you ask him for money?"
"Yeah." Tan Xuan nodded, "It's not like you don't know the rules of my industry. How can you work for nothing?"
Xiao Di was startled, "You mean to promote him..."
"I'll talk to you when I get back. Just wait and watch the show later."
"Are you watching the show?" Xiao Di looked at Tan Xuan doubtfully. When he saw the wedding photos of Yizicheng and Zheng Yujiao playing on the big screen on the stage, Yizicheng was already greeting the guests warmly. Xiao Di immediately said
I understood what Tan Xuan meant.
"No, I want to talk to the third child."
Xiao Di grabbed an on-site service staff and asked: "Where is the bride now?"
"She should be in the lounge now."
"Where is the lounge?"
"It's right next to the banquet hall."
"OK, thanks."
Xiao Di left in a hurry, but Tan Xuan did not stop him or follow him.
"What did the second brother do? It can't be..." He Yeqing and Liu Lian looked at each other in confusion and hurriedly followed out.
"Haha..." Tan Xuan smiled bitterly and shook his head, took off a piece of candy and threw it into his mouth. Some things are just like this candy. Only when you taste it yourself can you know what it tastes like.
"Mr. Tan, is it convenient for me to sit here?" Seeing that the seat next to Tan Xuan was empty, Gao Sheng came over again.
Tan Xuan just raised his eyebrows, not even bothering to raise them, "What, you are asking me for money? Let me tell you, if you give up, money will no longer be money once it goes into my pocket."
"what is that?"
"It's life!"
"Haha... I didn't expect Mr. Tan to like to joke." Gao Sheng felt a lot more relaxed in his heart and whispered: "Mr. Tan, I don't mean anything else. I just want to ask, what's going on with Ye Zicheng now?
Did he die suddenly and suddenly, or was he possessed by a ghost like on TV and then made a big fuss to vent his anger before dying?"
Tan Xuan looked at Gao Sheng and raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "What, you hope that Ye Yecheng will die soon?"
Gao Sheng shook his head vigorously, "No, I just want to be mentally prepared so that things don't happen too suddenly and I get scared."
"You, you, you..." Tan Xuan looked at Gao Sheng's serious face, he was not joking, and shook his head helplessly, "They say who is playing tricks, what kind of ghost are you meeting, you and your guy
You are so cowardly competing against each other. Don’t worry, you won’t be able to see those scenes today. Alas! I’m curious to ask, how did you get together in the first place?”
Hearing that those scenes would not happen, Gao Sheng was a little regretful, but he also breathed a sigh of relief and murmured: "Maybe it's God's will. We are not hooking up. It's just a chance coincidence that let me know.
With her help and encouragement, I started to write something online."
"As a classmate of Xiao Di, let me give you a piece of advice. Although ghosts are good and evil, what is floating in the world is only an obsession from their lifetime. When the thoughts disappear, the soul will be gone. You can't expect a ghost to live a good life.
Moreover, this kind of ghost does not have a complete personality and is very likely to turn evil in a single thought. It will be fine when you use each other, but when it feels that you have taken advantage, it will take it back in other ways."
"this……"
Gao Sheng was completely confused.
"Haha, you are so timid and want to inquire about other people's life and death. You should take care of yourself first. I am not saying this to scare you, but to tell you to pay attention to your propriety. Doing business with people can turn into enemies, especially with ghosts.
, don’t end up becoming the material in someone else’s novel.”
"No, no..." Gao Sheng shook his head vigorously.
"Get away!"
Gao Sheng was still reciting silently, but was pushed aside by an angry Xiao Di.
Xiao Di sat heavily next to Tan Xuan, slapped the table with an annoyed look and said: "Tan Xuan, the third child is so angry with me, why don't you think she believes me?"
Tan Xuan looked at the strange looks from around him, first smiled apologetically with everyone, and then took Xiao Di's hand, "Let's go out and tell you, how did you tell her, and how did she make you angry?
"
"What else can I say? I'll just say..."
Xiao Di was pulled by Tan Xuan and realized something was wrong, and hurriedly followed Tan Xuan out of the banquet hall.
"You didn't tell Zheng Yujiao that there was a ghost around Ye Zicheng, right?" Tan Xuan couldn't help but ask after walking out of the hotel door.
Xiao Di rolled her eyes at Tan Xuan, "I'm not stupid, how could I say that to her."
"Then what did you say?"
"I just said that Ye Zicheng is on a second marriage and his ex-wife is dead. Let her think clearly about whether she should marry such a person."
"What's the result?" Tan Xuan asked with a smile. In fact, there is no need to ask for the answer.
"As a result, they thought I was trying to ruin her wedding and was kicked out."
"Who are they?" Tan Xuan asked specifically when he heard the word "she" was followed by "men".
Xiao Di snorted angrily, "Who else could they be, Zheng Yujiao's family members in the lounge? Good guy, I never thought there were so many people in the lounge."
"It seems that Zheng Yujiao's family already knew that Ye Zicheng was married for the second time, and even accepted Ye Zicheng. They didn't realize that Ye Zicheng still had a way of doing it, and they didn't know how they fed them the ecstasy. You fool
If you rashly tell people these things, you will be kicked out, it will be a minor offense, and you will be fine if you are not beaten."
"They dare?" Xiao Di snorted again without haste, but did not continue, because she knew that those people really dared to take action just now, and there was no need for her to pretend to be tough in front of Tan Xuan.
After snorting again, Xiao Di continued to complain: "The two guys who are the most annoying are the eldest and the fourth. The third and fourth family misunderstood me. I can understand it to a certain extent, but after the two of them entered the lounge,
He actually thought that I was deliberately trying to ruin the wedding of Lao San and Ye Zicheng. He also said that I want to cherish you and not make you jealous. I was so angry, why didn’t I cherish you? I was jealous of their marriage and wanted to ruin their wedding.
Really? I don’t know if the two of them drank fake wine last night. I really want to give them a slap..."
Tan Xuan patted Xiao Di's shoulder and comforted him with deep sympathy: "Forget it, it's hard to persuade a damn ghost with good words. Anyway, you said what you should say. It's their business to regret it later. Dog bites
Lu Dongbin is not only a legend, but also a fable."
Seeing Tan Xuan taking him to the parking lot on the ground floor of the hotel, Xiao Di stopped and said, "Are you going to take me away? Are you really not going to care about Ye Zicheng's affairs?"
"Last night, Chun Gu found out that Wan Fanmei was killed by Ye Zicheng. Although I hate evil spirits, I also don't like evil people. Ask me to save him. I feel like I'm sorry for the law of heaven."
Xiao Di shook his head, looked into Tan Xuan's eyes and said: "But last night you said that it is not the ghosts' turn to uphold justice in the world. Can you really accept a living person being killed by an evil ghost in front of you?
fact?"
Tan Xuan chuckled, "So I hid out, out of sight and out of mind."
"You..." Xiao Di looked at Tan Xuan without blinking, with anger and a little disappointment in his eyes.
Tan Xuan smiled and nodded Xiao Di's nose, "Why are you so anxious? I'm jealous that you care so much about Ye Zicheng. Don't worry about today's affairs. I have arranged everything. Don't worry, Ye Zicheng will do it today."
He can't die, but killing to pay for his life is an eternal truth. He can't escape the punishment of the law. It's not the ghost's turn to uphold justice in this world, but there are still many people who uphold justice. They are all dead.
, just don’t worry about it.”
Hearing Tan Xuan's words, Xiao Di immediately hugged Tan Xuan's arm, "Really? Have you arranged everything? I know that my man is not the kind of person who has no sense of justice."
Tan Xuan curled his lips and said pretending to be angry: "Now you know I'm better? Why did I just see someone looking at my nose instead of my eyes or my nose?"
Xiao Di chuckled, hugged Tan Xuan's arm and shook it vigorously, "No way. Look at me, who is as gentle as a little bird, how could I do that to you?"
"Haha... let's get in the car first." Tan Xuan felt Xiao Di's tenderness and continued walking to the parking lot.
"Why are you still getting in the car?" Xiao Di asked in confusion, while closely following Tan Xuan's footsteps.
"Of course I'm watching a show. Didn't they say you wanted to ruin the wedding? In fact, they were right. Today's wedding will not go smoothly, but the person who ruined the wedding is not you, but me."
"What?" Xiao Di looked at Tan Xuan confused.
Tan Xuan smiled slightly, "I know you, I know you will struggle, you have a sense of justice better than me, but no matter what you do, it will be thankless, so I made arrangements in advance, no matter whether it is a human or a ghost today
, there must be an explanation. There is no place for evil people in this world, let alone evil spirits. But you know my character, I have always done good deeds without leaving my name behind. Let’s just watch the show in peace later. Look at how many directors there are.
Those who take the initiative to be on camera should keep a low profile."
"Did you plan all this?"
"Yes." Tan Xuan replied proudly, with a lot of bragging on his face.
"Are you saying that being kicked out just now was part of your plan?"
"Didn't I want you to show your true feelings, so that it can better show your deep love as sisters? How about it, your husband is smart, right?"
Tan Xuan stopped in the middle of boasting, because he noticed that Xiao Di's face changed, and an angry, ferocious, and vicious expression instantly gathered on her face.
"me……"
Tan Xuan wanted to explain that he had no chance. He tried to hide but was hugged tightly by Xiao Di. Then he felt a burning sensation coming from his waist and ribs.
"Ah...it hurts! Didn't you say that you are a little bird? Birdies are not like this..."
"Who said I'm not a little bird? Do you think I'm a little bird?"
