The jade bead on the palm continuously released strands of cold air. This cold air poured into the body along the palm of the hand. It was ice-cold and extremely comfortable. Shi Shi had an inexplicable feeling: as long as the bead was close to him, the direct sunlight could not harm him.
Just from this feeling, we can know how precious this orb is. Once such a precious thing is accepted, the favor will inevitably be owed...
Those who eat are soft-mouthed and those who take advantage of others are short-handed.
You must always be lower than the other person.
Shi Shi didn't want to owe her any favors, nor did he want to bow her head. He tilted his head and held the white paper umbrella between his neck. With both hands free, he took Zhong Li's right hand and gently placed the cold beads in her palm: "No reward for no merit!"
"
Zhong Li was surprised and couldn't help but glance at her.
She believed that if it were an ordinary ghost, with such a strong gift from her, and after experiencing the effect of the cold beads, the other person would most likely give in, but this female ghost refused without hesitation...
However, the other party has the other's pride, and she also has her own pride.
There is no reason to take back what Zhong Li wants to give away!
"Do you think this will work? I have nowhere to go now, so I might as well go to your house and stay for a while.
During this period, I will lend this bead to you for interest. When I no longer live with you, you can return the bead to me.
In this way, if we trade equally, you won't owe me anything."
"I agree!" Before Shi Shi could speak, the black cat said loudly.
Shi Shi: “…”
What do you agree to?
"Then it's settled." Zhong Li smiled slightly and handed the cold beads into Shi Shi's hand again.
"Idiot, stop being stubborn, it will be good for you." Mao Mao raised his foot and stepped on Shi Shi's foot to persuade him.
Shi Shi: “……”
"That's it." Zhong Li smiled like a flower: "Now please take me to where you live, okay?"
What else could Shi Shi say?
He raised his leg to give the black cat a symbolic kick, and walked towards his residence with Zhong Li.
"Not bad, not bad..."
After a while, Zhong Li walked around a small private courtyard in the downtown area and said with a smile: "I like the quietness in the bustle."
Shi Shi closed the white paper umbrella, held the cold beads in her hand, and bathed in the sunshine. Sure enough, she found that the sun could no longer cause any harm to her.
The magic of Hanzhu is evident!
"Shi Shi, let me ask you a question." Zhong Li came to the girl's side cheerfully.
"Say." Shi Shi, facing the sky, slowly opened his eyes and listened.
"Who is the most capable in this city?" Zhong Li said.
"My uncle." Shi Shi said without thinking.
"you sure?"
"I'm sure!" Shi Shi's tone was firm and unquestionable.
In the pavilion not far away.
The black cat covered his face speechlessly.
You ask who is bad, ask Shi Shi...
The man surnamed Qin appeared when Shi Shi was at his most desperate and pulled him out of the abyss with one hand.
Therefore, to Shi Shi, that guy was like a light, and he was the only light.
If you ask her who is the most powerful, if she can name others, I can take your last name!
"What's so great about him?" Zhong Li asked enthusiastically.
Shi Shi: "Why do you ask this?"
"I'm curious..." Zhong Li couldn't express his little thoughts and said with a smile: "I like to listen to other people's legendary stories."
Shi Shi felt something was wrong, so he didn't want to say more: "I'm his niece, and it's a bit hard to praise him in front of you. If you want to hear his story, just find a teahouse and sit down.
Slap a big ball on the table and shout, and there will be people rushing to explain it to you!"
"Good idea." Zhong Li nodded and waved: "Then I'll go and come back in the evening..."
Watching her turn into the wind and leave, Shi Shi turned to look in the direction of the pavilion: "Nekomata, do you think she has some thoughts about uncle?"
"Does she have any thoughts? What does it have to do with you?" Maomata asked.
Shi Shi frowned and was speechless for a moment.
Nekomata said earnestly: "Idiot, don't go astray. He is your uncle."
Shi Shi: "We are not related by blood..."
Nekomata: "..."
It hurts!
"Listen to me, your feelings for him are not called love, they are called dependence, or obsession. Because he appeared when you were most desperate and saved you from the sea of fire, that's why you have this kind of feeling." Nekomata.
Said seriously.
Shi Shi: "Then what is love?"
Nekomata: "..."
Suddenly I didn't want to say anything.
"Youjian" teahouse.
Zhong Li smashed a silver dollar vertically into the wooden table with a loud bang, which frightened several guests who were drinking tea and drank the tea into their trachea. They choked and coughed desperately, and their faces turned red.
"Everyone, can anyone tell me about Qin Yao in our city and who owns this ocean?"
"I'll do it!" Upon hearing this, a guest who wanted to come over to cause trouble suddenly changed his expression and raised his right hand with a smile on his face.
"Let me tell you, I am from Laofucheng, and I know the history of Mr. Qin's fortune very well." said a tea guest who had just calmed down his anger.
"If you want to understand Mr. Qin, you have to look at me, girl. I am a professional storyteller."
Near the window, a young man with a dry body but a particularly loud voice jumped up.
Zhong Li glanced at everyone, pointed at the professional storyteller and said, "Come here."
"Hey, hey." The storyteller was ecstatic and ran over quickly.
You can get a piece of ocean with just your words. This money is so good!
"Alas, alas..." The person who was not selected sighed.
A rare good thing in eight hundred years was snatched away by a grandson. Are you angry or not?
"Miss, where do you want to hear it from?" the storyteller stood in front of the table and asked, nodding and bending.
"Sit down and talk." Zhong Li pointed to the bench opposite and said with a smile, "Let me ask a few questions first."
The storyteller sat down boldly and responded with a smile: "You ask, you ask."
"I heard that Qin Yao is the most capable person in the city. Can you tell me what makes him so powerful?" Zhong Li said.
As soon as the storyteller heard this, he thought about it in his heart.
A beautiful girl inquires about Mr. Qin in public. This is obviously not seeking revenge!
If it's not seeking revenge, it's probably looking for love. You're right if you pick up something that sounds good.
"Master Qin, I was born five years ago. Five years ago, Fucheng was a provincial capital in name, but the people were poor, the infrastructure was backward, and it lacked the style and majesty of a provincial capital.
After Mr. Qin came to Fucheng, he invested in and opened the first department store in the province, which directly promoted the business of Chenghuang Street.
In the past five years, four more department stores have been opened, one per year on average, revitalizing the city's economy.
That's it, not to mention the Traditional Chinese Medicine Association, the Custom Industry Association, and the Charity Federation established under Mr. Qin's leadership. Each and every one of them is a great thing that benefits the country and the people, and the people in the whole city benefit from it.
It is the nature of poor people to hate the rich, but no one among poor people will hate Master Qin.
Who dares to say that he will be free from illness and disaster in the future?
Who dares to say that he will not beg Master Qin in the future?"
"good."
"That makes sense."
People who were still scolding the grandson in their hearts couldn't help but cheer after hearing this, as if they were really listening to the book.
The storyteller smiled, stood up, and raised his hands to the tea guests from all over the world: "Thank you, young and old, for your cheers."
The teahouse owner looked at this scene with a smile, raised his hand to call the waiter, and said: "This storyteller is a talented person. After he finishes speaking later, you can go and ask him if he is willing to storyteller in our teahouse for three yuan a month." Ocean."
The waiter stared and was speechless.
Three oceans... This salary is more than ten times his.
Sure enough, an errand boy will never be as good as a talker. This is life!!!
A few hours later.
Zhong Li looked at the storyteller with a dry mouth and a hoarse voice, and said with a smile: "The last question is, is there any young talent in Guangdong and Guangxi that is better than Qin Yao?"
Although she is not young anymore.
But she never thought about finding an old man!
The storyteller thought about it seriously, shook his head and said: "Guangdong and Guangxi are too difficult, go to Peiping, there may be something there."
Zhong Li nodded, stood up, raised his arms and stretched: "Okay, I'll go to Peking to have a look."
Storyteller: "???"
Miss, are you serious?!
…
evening.
Zhong Li knocked on the door of the CEO's office and said to the figure behind the table, "I'm going on a long trip."
Qin Yao put down the book in his hand and raised his head slightly: "In case of any emergency, how should I contact you?"
Zhong Li pondered for a moment, then took out a five-color conch from his hands, held it up with spiritual energy and sent it to Qin Yao's table: "When you activate it with magic power and speak to the mouth of the conch, I will be able to hear your voice. .”
Qin Yao's eyes lit up and he reached out to pick up the conch. His hands were slightly cool and comfortable to the touch: "How many of these do you have?"
"There are three in total." Zhong Li said: "I have a female conch here, my brother has a child conch here, and the last child conch is in your hand."
Qin Yao: "..."
Okay.
I originally thought about getting a few more, but now my wish was dashed.
Shaoyan.
Zhong Li left Chenghuang Department Store coolly and rushed to the independent courtyard not far away.
Before leaving, she wanted to say goodbye to her new friend and ask him to keep a room for her.
A blink of an eye.
Ten days later.
Qin Yao had just returned to Yizhuang when he saw a tall and sturdy elder sister wearing gold and silver dragging a handsome young man in a suit straight out of the rickshaw and walking towards the Yizhuang.
"Sister Xia, Sister Xia, don't let it go. This place looks very evil at first glance." The young man resisted with all his heart and tried to escape back to the rickshaw.
Sister Xia glared and scolded: "You took the money!"
"You said you would take me to make it clear to your dead husband and ask him to stop pestering you, but I didn't expect that the dead ghost you were talking about was a real dead ghost. Can such a thing as going to the underworld be done casually?" The young man was speechless. , said with his cheeks twitching.
"I don't care about that. I only know that after receiving the money, I have to do something." Sister Xia said coldly: "If you keep talking nonsense, believe it or not, I will find someone to cut off your dick?"
The young man subconsciously closed his legs and did not dare to say any more.
"Li Shimin?" Not far away, Qin Yao called tentatively.
"Who called me?" The young man followed the call, his face full of astonishment.
He doesn't know the person in front of him!
"It's really you." Qin Yao smiled slightly, waved his hand and said, "It's okay, just go in."
Li Shimin: "???"
Sister Xia glanced at Qin Yao, her eyes suddenly brightened, she took out a business card from her handbag and strode to him: "Hello, my name is Zhu Hongxia. This is my business card. If you need anything in the future, you can
Find me at the address on the business card."
Qin Yao: "???"
"It's okay, don't be shy, I won't eat you." Sister Xia smiled slightly, stepped on her feet and stuck the business card into Qin Yao's clothes. When she turned towards Li Shimin, her face changed instantly: "What are you looking at? Why don't you hurry up and follow me?"
I'll go in!"
Li Shimin: "..."
Since ancient times, rich women have loved strong men. The ancients were honest and would not be deceived.
Seeing them walking into Yizhuang, Qin Yao stretched out his hand to hold his business card, dumbfounded.
If you have money, you will have confidence. If you have money, you will have dignity. People in future generations will not be deceived by others.
Thinking like this, he took out the five-color conch from his pocket, silently input the magic power, and shouted: "Ah Li, Ah Ji, please answer when you receive it..."
"Master." On the other side, Sister Xia pulled Li Shimin quickly to Uncle Jiu and said respectfully.
She has a wide business circle and knows many dignitaries, and all her friends highly respect the ninth uncle of Yizhuang, which is why she is so respectful.
"Hello." Uncle Jiu nodded and asked, "What's the matter?"
"We want to go to the underworld and talk to my damn husband about something." Sister Xia said bluntly.
Uncle Jiu shook his head: "Madam, the underworld is not something that can be brought down casually."
"Five hundred yuan." Sister Xia said seriously.
Uncle Jiu: "..."
Five hundred yuan can buy several top-notch shops...
"Eight hundred dollars!" Seeing that Uncle Jiu was silent, Sister Xia waved her hand and said with great enthusiasm.
Uncle Jiu: "..."
"A thousand dollars!" Sister Xia said, staring into Uncle Jiu's eyes.
"Enough is enough."
Uncle Jiu was convinced and said quickly: "The underworld has closed the door from the underworld to the underworld. I can't send you down. I can only use your husband's relics to invite him up."
"It's okay, as long as you can explain it clearly to him." Sister Xia was obviously prepared for this. She took out a pipe from her handbag and handed it to Uncle Jiu: "This is the relic of my dead husband. Please trouble me, Master."
Already."
"No trouble, no trouble." Uncle Jiu reached out to catch the pipe and said with a smile.
"Tsk tsk." At the door of the lobby, Qin Yao's face showed a look that was half a smile but not a smile.
Uncle Jiu looked up when he heard the commotion, his face suddenly turned red, and he scolded: "Where are you watching the show? You came back just in time to open the show!"
Qin Yao waved his hand: "You can drive it yourself, I'm back to see Nianying."
"I'm here..." Nianying, who was wearing a royal blue pleated skirt, jumped over like a child, grabbed the corner of Qin Yao's clothes behind him, and revealed her little head.
Qin Yao easily hooked her neck and said, "Hold your words."
Nianying didn't struggle and said with a smile: "Oh."
Uncle Jiu: "..."
Inexplicably, I feel a little overwhelmed, and I feel a sense of irritability for no reason.
"Don't talk either!"
Qin Yao: "..."
It's all right, why are you so angry?
"Wencai, Wencai." Uncle Jiu shouted loudly with a straight face.
"I'm coming."
Wencai trotted over, and immediately smiled when he saw Qin Yao: "Senior...brother, when did you come back?"
During the greeting, he suddenly remembered the chief disciple.
"Leave him alone, prepare the magic weapon, open the altar and perform the rituals, and summon the souls from the underworld." Uncle Jiu shouted in a low voice.
Wen Cai sensed something was wrong when he heard the voice. He immediately put away his playful smile and started busying himself.
In the blink of an eye.
Dharma altar, ritual utensils, incense candles, talismans...all the necessary items are fully prepared!
