The customer saw that he looked unhappy and asked him in a concerned tone if there was anything wrong.
The man forced a smile to show that he was fine.
For some reason, I suddenly felt panicky, as if something had taken control of me.
Just when the man was feeling uneasy and was planning to finalize the cooperation as soon as possible and then investigate whether something had happened, he saw the client opposite him who was smiling and friendly to him one second, and suddenly received a phone call the next second.
No one knew what was told to him on the phone, but while he was on the phone, the man clearly felt the customer looking at him.
After hanging up the phone, the customer said to him.
"Sorry, I'm a little busy right now. Let's talk about cooperation later."
As soon as these words came out, the man's face changed instantly.
Because once you say this, 99% of the cooperation is over.
He didn't want to miss out on this big deal, so he wanted to try harder or find out what happened.
But the customer just stood up and left without giving him any chance.
The man could only watch helplessly as the duck he had caught flew away.
The customer was fine just now, but after that phone call, his attitude changed instantly.
So who made that call? It's so bad!
The man thought about it and felt that it must be a competitor who was behind his back!
Just wait for him, and see if he finds a chance to kill them!
The man paid the bill with a gloomy face, went to the parking lot and drove away, ready to go home to investigate which rival was behind the plot.
As a result, as soon as the car drove out of the parking lot, it crashed into the green belt on the side of the road.
With a bang, his head hit the steering wheel hard.
The man twitched in pain, covered his forehead and cursed.
My luck today is so bad. Not only did I not get a stable business deal, but I even drove the car into the green belt.
How could this happen? This has never happened before!
Especially in recent years, he has not experienced the feeling of bad luck again.
Not knowing what he was thinking about, the man's pupils shrank and a bad guess emerged in his mind.
Could it be that the house in Jiangyu is on sale?
Thinking of this, the man suddenly didn't care about anything else and immediately took out his cell phone to call the tenant of the house over there.
When Zhang Yang and the other two received the call from the landlord, they had just witnessed a one-sided crushing fight.
At first, the "statue" was angry and unhappy about Lin Xi's attack, and it bared its teeth as if it was going to fight back.
As a result, Lin Xi's expression didn't change at all. He threw another talisman over. The "statue" didn't have time to resist and was hit. It showed a painful expression and then its anger intensified.
Lin Xi watched as a shadow within the statue began to withdraw, preparing to pounce on her.
The shadow separated from the statue, and Zhang Yang and the others could no longer see it.
But they found that the facial features and expression of the statue on the altar had changed again!
Before, the statue was staring fiercely at Lin Xi and them, but at this moment, the facial features on the statue's face suddenly disappeared, and it became a blank face!
Seeing the facial features of the stone statue disappear with my own eyes, it was as if something living inside the stone statue had crawled out.
Holy shit, can this be any more terrifying?
When had Zhang Yang and the other two ever seen such a scene? If they were not worried that making a sound would disturb Lin Xi, they would have probably hugged each other and cried loudly.
Lin Xi didn't react at all. This thing just looked scary, but it wasn't very powerful.
After all, its cultivation does not come from its own cultivation, but from the offerings of others.
It's like they are both animals, but the domesticated ones and the wild ones that rely on their own brood for food, the two have completely different levels of lethality and combat power.
What's more, it is not a "god" in the orthodox sense. It has tens of thousands of believers, and the power of faith is not on the same level.
This thing is at most an evil demon monster in the wild that has no idea how to cultivate its spirit. It is not very big, but it has proclaimed itself a god and survives by sucking human yang energy.
I don’t know how the person who worshipped him found this thing and took it home.
Lin Xi sneered in her heart. At the moment when the shadow broke away from the stone statue and rushed towards her, she made a hand gesture with one hand and took out a few talismans with the other hand.
The moment he chanted the spell, several talismans automatically flew into the air, forming a circle and surrounding the shadow.
The circle continued to tighten with Lin Xi's gestures and spells. The shadow couldn't even move and couldn't resist at all.
Zhang Yang and his companions could not see the shadow, but they could see the talisman paper flashing with golden light and getting tighter, and they seemed to hear some sharp and miserable screams.
There is no need to guess from looking at this situation, it is definitely that "statue" that is trapped.
Several people silently cheered for Lin Xi in their hearts, hoping that she would defeat the opponent in one fell swoop.
Lin Xi did not disappoint their expectations. At the moment when the talisman circle shrank to its smallest range, a stream of spiritual power shot towards the center.
In an instant, the shadow let out a last, unwilling cry, and then disappeared into thin air.
The shadow disappeared, and several pieces of talisman paper fell to the ground and turned into ashes.
Lin Xi clapped his hands, turned around and said to Zhang Yang and the others who were stunned.
"That thing is solved, what's happening to you..."
She was just about to say that it would be best for Zhang Yang and the others to buy some talismans and wear them for a while.
Before he could finish his words, he heard Zhang Yang's cell phone ringing.
He took out his cell phone with an embarrassed look on his face.
"Sorry, sorry, I forgot to mute my phone."
Fortunately, Lin Xi's fight with the "statue" was over, otherwise his phone would not have rang in such a serious situation just now.
Zhang Yang couldn't imagine how much of a spoiler he was.
After he finished speaking, he looked down and was wondering who was calling him when he saw the word "landlord".
Zhang Yang: “!!!”
"Master, it's the landlord!"
The landlord called at this very moment, not earlier or later.
Moreover, there is something wrong with the "statue" in his house.
To be honest, Zhang Yang and his friends really don’t know how to face the landlord now.
The main reason was that he had always left a very good impression on them. He had reduced or waived their rent and even specially kept his house empty for them for a month.
Zhang Yang and the others couldn't believe that he was so generous that he didn't even dare to think that he had known from the beginning that there was something wrong with the "god statue" in his house, and only then did he let them move in for their sake.
He even specifically instructed them to help burn incense and place offerings to the "statue"!
If this is true, then the landlord is not a good person at all. He is a completely crazy devil. It is not an exaggeration to even call him a murderer!
But it’s not good not to answer the phone.
In the end, Zhang Yang pressed the answer button, and then, on a sudden inspiration, pressed the hands-free button.
He thought that Lin Xi was right next to him, and maybe the master could hear something from the phone.
Just when he was thinking about how to ask the landlord about the "statue", it turned out that he didn't even have to ask, because the landlord called him for this.
As soon as the call was connected, the landlord's anxious voice came from the receiver.
"Xiao Zhang, I hope I didn't disturb you."
Without waiting for Zhang Yang to reply, the other end continued to ask, "Hey, I just suddenly thought of something and wanted to ask you, have you burned incense and placed offerings for me in the statue in your house?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yang quickly looked at Lin Xi and silently asked her with his mouth: What's going on?
Lin Xi opened the screen of his mobile phone and wrote a few words on it.
———Answer truthfully.
Zhang Yang: “…”
Ha, haha, the master is worthy of being a master, he is an honest person.
Zhang Yang could only listen to Lin Xi and replied.
"Yes, yes, yes. I helped you with the incense and offerings you mentioned earlier two days ago. I even sent you pictures. Didn't you receive them?"
The landlord's irritability and anxiety became more and more intense.
He recalled that he had indeed received the pictures sent by Zhang Yang a few days ago.
But he happened to be busy at the time, so he didn't click to check it carefully.
Thinking of the picture at this moment, he quickly clicked it to check it carefully.
But after clicking on it, he found that everything in the picture was normal, even the tributes and the way of burning incense were done according to his instructions.
Could it be that my bad luck started from today, and it was because the statue appeared?
Just when he was beginning to doubt, the big tree above his head suddenly made a crisp "creaking" sound.
The landlord was completely oblivious at the moment, sitting in the car thinking about what other possibilities he might have missed.
But before he could figure out the reason, the broken tree fell down and hit his car directly, deforming the window glass and roof.
Not only was he injured, but the landlord in the car was also not spared.
Before he fell into coma, the landlord lay on the chair in fear, with only one thought in his mind, that is - there must be something wrong with the statue!
Inside the rental house.
Zhang Yang called "Hello" several times into the phone, but there was no response from the landlord.
But before he could contact her, there seemed to be a huge noise coming from the other side, as if something had fallen down.
Could it be that the landlord is responsible?
Could it be retribution?
Or in other words, backlash? !
Zhang Yang widened his eyes in shock and looked at his two friends, only to find that they seemed to have the same idea as him.
The three of them didn't know whether it was right or not, so they could only ask Lin Xi.
In response, Lin Xi nodded and said, "Yes."
The landlord invited such an "evil god" into his home. If he really didn't know the origin of this "statue", he would not have specifically asked Zhang Yang and others to help burn incense and pay tribute.
Under normal circumstances, the gods you invite back home will only protect your family members, and will only be effective if your family members pay tribute and offer sacrifices to them.
Even if some families have only one god worshipped at home, there will never be a situation where you help me worship the god and I help you worship the god.
Inviting and worshipping gods at home is considered to be a very personal act.
Moreover, he didn't take the god he invited home with him, not only did he not take the god with him, but he actually left the god in an uninhabited house?
This is even more unreasonable.
Unless the god was dangerous to him, he would not dare to get close to him, let alone invite the god to live with him somewhere else.
Taking all the circumstances into consideration, Lin Xi could be sure that the landlord was well aware of the nature of the "statue", but was reluctant to discard it, so he allowed the tenant to continue burning incense and paying tribute to him.
They even treated the tenants as "tribute".
After hearing what Lin Xi said, Zhang Yang and the others were furious.
