On the surface, Locke and I made an agreement. We all went to the puppet town to join in the fun. If we could fish in troubled waters, we would fish in troubled waters. If not, we would eat and drink at Smith's house.
Anyway, Mr. Smith is not short of money or credit, there is always hard work.
But this is only an agreement on the surface. Only God knows what the other party is thinking behind the scenes.
After the two of us agreed, no one spoke. Instead, we lay down on our seats and closed our eyes to relax. At noon, the private plane landed in London. The general manager took the client to do some work, and we took advantage of the opportunity.
At this time, I had a simple meal.
Because we don’t have a hidden country visa, we can’t walk around and can only find a restaurant around the airport to have something to eat.
Fortunately, the general manager is a nice person. After seeing off the customers, he put us on a private plane and started flying to Ottawa.
Only then did I wake up. I'm afraid this general manager sent me to Ottawa specifically? But why didn't he talk to me? Didn't he even look at me?
I thought about it over and over, but I didn’t know what was going on. But I naturally put the blame on Deputy Commander Di Ming. After all, Deputy Commander Di Ming has great power in the country, and he needs a general manager of a commercial company to make a special trip to send him off.
Let me tell you, it should be a piece of cake.
Moreover, the other party did not talk to me or even meet me. It was probably Deputy Commander Di Ming’s special order. If the general manager wanted Deputy Commander Di Ming to owe this favor, he would definitely abide by it and not dare to violate it at all.
Anyway, he was interested in Deputy Commander Di Ming. As for who I was and where I was going, it had nothing to do with him and he didn't dare to inquire.
Ordinary commercial companies would be better off keeping away from the Exorcist matter.
After I figured this out, I felt much more relaxed. So much so that I didn't even bother to deal with that arrogant young man. Speaking of which, that young man didn't understand anything. He didn't know anything. There was no reason to be angry with someone like him.
price drop.
I'm an exorcist, but your general manager doesn't dare to talk to me. How can you, a little grasshopper, jump around like that?
The journey was uneventful, and we soon arrived at Macdonald-Cartier International Airport. This is the airport with the largest construction area in Ottawa and the airport with the largest passenger flow.
When we arrived at this place, it was basically Locke's territory. He took me to show my ID, acted as a translator, booked a taxi for me, and contacted people from the Smith family. He was very busy.
In comparison, I was very relaxed. I just nodded to the general manager from a distance when I left the private plane. When I nodded, the general manager happened to be looking at me, and then he smiled at me and turned around.
Back to the cabin.
I don’t know the name of this general manager, but from Urumqi to Ottawa, almost halfway across the world, such a long journey was actually given by him.
Even with the favor of Deputy Commander Di Ming, this is still an extremely hard job. If you have the opportunity to meet him in the future, you must thank him.
While he was thinking wildly, Locke hurried over with his documents. He was beaming and said, "Brother, do you want to get rid of the jet lag?"
I shook my head: "It's common for exorcists to have their yin and yang reversed. Jet lag doesn't exist for us."
Locke chuckled and said: "That's right! But we are very lucky. The driver of the Smith family is right outside the airport. They are specially here to pick up the exorcists. As long as they are exorcists, no matter who they are, they can be picked up and dropped off by private cars."
I raised my eyebrows slightly and said, "Drive to Doll Town?"
Locke shook his head: "No, drive to the Smith family's manor, and then take a helicopter there together! This time Mr. Smith made harsh words, and we all went to work together. As long as the matter can be solved, we will reward you based on your merits! We will never treat you unfairly.
Ours!"
The Smith family is considered a long-established family in Canada. It experienced a decline in the 1960s. But this kind of century-old family has a deep family heritage. Even if it declines for a while, it will not take long to rise again.
In particular, Mr. Smith of this generation can be regarded as a distinguished figure. He invests in whatever industry in Canada makes money. His hands are cramped when making money. It is said that he has a place on the Forbes rich list.
In order to solve the problem in Doll Town, Mr. Smith has spent a lot of money. He has a luxury motorcade outside the international airport specially used to pick up and drop off the exorcists.
As long as you are rushing to Doll Town, you can ride for free.
Although Locke didn't have much ability, he was still considered the number one figure in the local area, so he easily contacted Mr. Smith's luxury fleet, then took me into the car and went straight to Smith's manor.
Mr. Smith's manor is on the east side of Ottawa. All the way you drive there are spacious and clean asphalt roads. It is said that this road was built by the Smith family specifically to lead to the Smith Manor.
This road can be regarded as the property of the Smith family. As long as it is a convoy of the Smith family, it has the right of way.
The car we took was a very comfortable Lincoln business car. This car has been modified. The spacious interior has only four luxurious leather seats. There is also a small wine cabinet next to the seats, and various
wine glass.
Locke was a thick-skinned person. After he came in, he opened a bottle of red wine without ceremony, poured it into a glass and tasted it carefully.
While tasting it, he said to me: "Brother Zhang, do you want some?"
I shook my head and said, "I don't drink."
Although drinking alcohol can increase the yang energy of a living person, it can also slow down the reaction of the brain. The work of an exorcist is all about holding the head on the waistband. Unless necessary, no one can do it during the work.
Can't drink.
Locke would also know this rule, so he no longer tried to persuade me, but said while drinking: "Brother Zhang, it's up to you whether we can make money this time. You must remember that we are
Those who come to fish in troubled waters are not risking their lives. Although money is important, our lives are more important!"
I said: "My English is very poor."
Locke said without hesitation: "Don't worry, the exorcists all speak very good Chinese!"
This is absolutely true! Even though the common language in the world is English, in the exorcism circle, Chinese is the most widely used language.
Exorcists from all over the world have always cited China as the birthplace of exorcists, and Chinese exorcists are world-famous for their mystery and power.
Even the rebellious holy knights and proud great scientists all admit that Chinese exorcists are the most powerful. Even some ancient incantations and incantations are inextricably related to the Chinese language.
It would be understandable to say that many exorcists do not understand English, but if an exorcist does not understand Chinese, he will definitely be ridiculed. If you do not understand Chinese, you will not have access to the most profound exorcism methods! You will never
I can only hang out in the middle and lower classes!
Chinese is so important to the exorcists that even if there are no Chinese people present, if the two parties do not understand the language, they will still use Chinese to converse.
This has basically become an international practice.
After I understood this truth, I stopped asking. I listened to Locke's endless nonsense, but my eyes looked at the shadow flying backwards outside. I didn't know what kind of existence the sword-holder in Sleepy Hollow was.
Unknowingly, the luxurious Lincoln had already driven out of the city and kept moving forward along the asphalt road. The scenery outside changed from modern steel and concrete buildings to neatly trimmed flowers, plants and trees. Only then did I realize that maybe this place
Have entered the interior of Smith Manor.
After the luxury commercial vehicle passed through two iron gates, it parked in the fixed parking lot. A neatly dressed old man saw us getting out of the car, bowed respectfully, and then said: "You two
Distinguished guests, welcome to Smith Manor."
His Chinese is very standard and his tone is very polite, but for some reason, I always feel that this person exudes a dangerous aura.
This kind of aura was not obvious, and even passed by in a flash, which made me wonder whether I was caring too much, or was there something really wrong with this old man?
But looking at the other person's skinny appearance and gray hair, he probably didn't look like a dangerous person.
I guess I just felt wrong?
In this case, Locke was much more tactful than me. He said loudly: "You're welcome, Butler Smith. I am a ghost businessman from Ottawa, and this is an exorcist from China, Mr. Zhang!"
Mr. Smith paused on me for a moment and said, "Smith Manor welcomes distinguished guests from China, please!"
I nodded to him and said, "You're welcome, old sir. We're here to get rid of the evil ghosts in Doll Town..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard someone next to him sneer: "Chinese? How dare you, a group of incompetent exorcists, say that you want to rid the Doll Town of evil spirits? I think you are here to swindle money!"
"
I turned my head suddenly and happened to see a strong man with a big beard getting out of another commercial car, looking at me with eyes full of disdain.
I have never been used to such self-righteous things, so I sneered and said, "Who do you think you are? You dare to question me?"
The man said proudly: "Old foreigner from Xiaojingshan! Butler Smith, are you sure you want to let these incompetent exorcists enter the Doll Town? I tell you, they will die!"
It turns out that he is the old foreigner from Xiaojingshan? That self-righteous American?
The old foreigner is not a Canadian national, and Xiao Jingshan is not in Canada, but in the United States. This old foreigner is the best exorcist in Minnesota. He was once invited to the headquarters by scientists from the Paranormal Research and Defense Agency.
According to rumors, the Paranormal Research and Defense Agency intended to accept him as a scientist specializing in the study of Yin and Yang. However, the old foreigner naturally liked freedom, so he refused without hesitation.
