Chapter 48: Rejection



He looked forward to communicating with Kong Hanan more and more.

But unfortunately, the Black Ghost King just bowed to him.

"I'm so sorry, sir, he's out on something important and isn't home."

Of course Xu Meng would not make the same mistake as yesterday again.

"I was so sorry to miss Mr. Kong yesterday and visit him today. This is a small token of my respect. Please accept it on his behalf."

Li Wujiu nodded and took the gift, but it was a calligraphy and painting, very light. Li Wujiu didn't understand what it meant, so he opened it and took a look.

Opening a gift in front of the giver is actually a very rude act. Li Wujiu was just a small errand boy when he was alive, and he didn't understand. Xu Meng had already imagined Kong Hanan to be a master. Generally, in a family of status, the housekeeper would check the gifts first, one to see the value so that it would be convenient to return the gift, and the other to see if it was safe. This is also a normal operation.

But what is abnormal is that Li Wujiu is a ghost from a hundred years ago, and he has been living under the bridge for a hundred years. What's more, he was just a small official when he was alive, and the aesthetics of Shu Kingdom is different from that of Da Qi. He was confused when he looked at the painting.

What the hell is this?

What did the master say before? Treat us well and take our money.

This is not money, don't take it.

Xu Meng watched the Black-Clothed Ghost King's expression change from a forced smile to gradually becoming indifferent, and then he forced a smile again, his mood gradually becoming depressed.

Then, the Black-Clothed Ghost King returned the calligraphy and painting.

"I'm sorry, this thing may not be to your liking, sir."

Not accepting gifts has two meanings. One is that you look down on the gift, but the more likely meaning is that you look down on the person who gave the gift.

"How dare you be so disrespectful to the head of the family!"

The secret guard hiding in the dark was angry. He had never seen the head of the family suffer such a loss in Jiange County.

"You are so bold! I've already noticed you, this bug! How dare you provoke me now?"

Li Wujiu was also annoyed. Countless ghost hands emerged from his body, and the soul-catching chains formed a net of heaven and earth.

Xu Meng was about to stop it when he heard a strange hum.

Niu Dou, who was outside the house, saw the fight inside and came to help.

Most of the living people who have seen the magical powers of the underworld are dead. The secret guards are just guards trained by the Xu family. They have never seen such means. People are fixed and their souls are hooked out by ghost hands and chains.

Xu Meng was shocked again. What his secret guard said last night was not entirely true. It was not just that he was not sure, he couldn't even make it one round!

"Master has instructed us not to harm living people. This is just a warning. I will return his soul in a few days. Take him away."

Li Wujiu's expression was grim.

The fight has already started, there's no need to smile.

Xu Meng bowed with a dusty face. Although he was rejected again, he became more determined and decided to visit again.

A master like Mr. Kong will definitely help my Xu family return to the court!
