Chapter 214 Accepting the Commission



Wen Qi shook his head and said, "No matter who is chosen, the final outcome will not be much better than yours. It's just a matter of time. As the flower of desire, it naturally knows how to stimulate your desire."

Tan Yingying was slightly startled, and her expression improved a little. Perhaps she was not so miserable inside.

Zhang Ke was anxious and angry. "What should we do now? What kind of bullshit evil god is this? How can it use humans as fertilizer? Where is it growing? I'll take a taxi and pull it out by the roots!"

Wen Qi raised his eyebrows slightly, "That's right, we really need to find where its body is, pull it out and burn it, and the problem will be solved."

Zhang Ke froze and laughed dryly, "Then I'll have to trouble Master Wen Tianshi."

Tan Yingying couldn't believe it. "It can be solved so easily?"

Wen Qi nodded as a matter of course, "It's just a flower that can only bewitch people, how difficult can it be? But you came too late, and we don't have much time left. We have to leave as soon as possible." She took out her cell phone, "Where are you from? Let me check the tickets first."

Tan Yingying was a little excited, "Nanlianshan."

Wen Qi checked and frowned slightly, "You have to take a plane, then transfer to a train, and then transfer to a bus. Oh... it's quite a hassle."

Zhang Ke was afraid that she didn't want to go, so he said, "We can pay more!"

Wen Qi's heart moved, and she forgot to talk about money. She nodded calmly, "Then let's talk about the price first." She looked at Tan Yingying and said very bluntly, "I want half of your entire fortune."

Before Tan Yingying could say anything, Zhang Ke exploded, "This is too expensive!"

Wen Qi glanced at him indifferently and said, "If you lose money, you can earn it again, but if you lose your life, you lose everything."

"I agree." Tan Yingying smiled bitterly and said, "Master Wen is right. If you're dead, what's the point of keeping the money?"

Zhang Ke wanted to say, Wen Qi is not the only celestial master in the world, they could just ask someone else, he would definitely not ask for too much. But he changed his mind and shut up again.

Firstly, Tan Yingying's affairs should not be made public, the fewer people know about it, the better. Secondly, Tan Yingying really doesn't have much time left, and it will take time to find a reliable Taoist priest again.

Let the lion ask for as much as he wants. Once Yingying recovers, they will be able to earn back any money they have.

Wen Qi was not surprised at all that she agreed, "It's good once you've figured it out." She took out the POS machine and said, "Pay the deposit first."

Tan Yingying seriously took out her bank card and swiped it to pay.

Looking at the string of zeros on the POS machine, Zhang Ke's heart was bleeding. This was all hard-earned money! After paying the deposit, Wen Qi smiled and took out a talisman from his pocket - the one he had recovered from Chen Yu. It was not suitable for his own use, so it was just right for the customer to use temporarily.

"Wearing this can at least slow down the speed at which the flowers bloom." Wen Qi said, "I'll go upstairs and pack my things, and we'll leave together later."

Zhang Ke quickly took it and put it around Tan Yingying's neck, "Put it on quickly."

Tan Yingying obediently put on the amulet and said softly, "Brother Zhang, thank you for your hard work."

Zhang Ke sighed, "Who made me fall in love with you at first sight? Once this hurdle is over, we will work harder and we will definitely be able to go higher and further!"

A glimmer of hope also rose in Tan Yingying's eyes.

Wen Qi came out of the reception room and directly @ed Liu Ran in the group chat, sending a voice message saying, "I've received a commission to go into the mountains. Come with me and meet downstairs in ten minutes."

Back in the lounge, Wen Qi took out his backpack, first packed a set of clothes for changing, then a padded windbreaker and a pair of extra thick fleece autumn trousers, then looked around and put the thermos cup into the bag.

The rest, cinnabar talisman paper, and brush, were all on her.

Ten minutes later, Wen Qi brought Tan Yingying and Zhang Ke downstairs, and Liu Ran was already waiting at the door with a bag on his back.

Wen Qi didn't say a word and said directly: "Let's go to Tan Yingying's house to pack our luggage first, and take the tablet with us."

Tan Yingying had no objection, so Liu Ran and Wen Qi got into the nanny car driven by Zhang Ke.

On the way, Wen Qi sorted out the whole thing and told Liu Ran everything in detail. While the latter was digesting the information, Wen Qi did not stop and was busy booking air and train tickets.

Hearing Qi asking about Tan Yingying's ID number, Zhang Ke reported it very skillfully, and then started to say his own.

Wen Qi said calmly: "You don't need to go."

Zhang Ke was a little dissatisfied, "Why don't I have to go?"

Wen Qi smiled and asked, "What are you going to do? Are you going to hold us back?"

Zhang Ke was speechless and became autistic.

Tan Yingying comforted him, "Brother Zhang, just wait for me in Yunhai. I will definitely come back safely."

Zhang Ke responded with a heavy heart.

Liu Ran had already digested it, and asked as he went upstairs, "Is there consciousness inside the tablet as well?"

“Yes.” Tan Yingying said: “I made wishes to it several times afterwards, and the tablet responded to me directly.”

"The consciousness in the tablet is just a remnant soul that followed you out." Wen Qi typed on his phone as he said, "Just detain it later. Don't kill it for now, so as not to alert the enemy."

She said it so lightly that Tan Yingying didn't know what to say and could only nod in agreement.

The elevator stopped at the eighteenth floor. Wen Qi looked up and chuckled, "It really knows how to choose a place. It really thinks it's something."

Everyone walked out of the elevator, and Zhang Ke stepped forward to lead the way. "This way, 1804."

When Tan Yingying opened the door, Wen Qi's phone rang. She looked down and saw that it was Feng Ce who was replying to her message.

Feng Ce: Be safe. If there is anything you can’t solve, feel free to tell me and I will get there as soon as possible.

Wen Qi curled his lips and replied: "As you command! Sir!" The door opened, and a barely detectable evil aura drifted out.

Wen Qi paused and put away his phone. It seemed that this flower of desire was indeed well taken care of. It was just a remnant soul, but its aura was released so unscrupulously.

It seems that it has chosen a lot of flower fertilizers.

Dad was also at home. He went out to check when he heard the noise. He was very happy when he saw Tan Yingying, but his expression suddenly turned cold when he saw Wen Qi and Liu Ran. "Who are you? What are you doing in my house?"

Wen Qi looked him up and down. He was a man in his early 40s, but his hair was already a little gray. No wonder Zhang Ke saw that he and Tan Yingying were getting along without any incongruity. This man was obviously also a flower fertilizer, and he was almost sucked dry.

"Tan Yingying." Wen Qi said, "I just forgot to tell you that after the evil god disappears, you may not have a father anymore."

"I know." Tan Yingying's expression was very calm. It was obvious that she had already thought about the outcome. The stolen things had to be returned eventually.

Dad was furious. "What are you talking about? How come Yingying doesn't have a father? How dare you curse someone in the house? Get out! You are not welcome in our house!"

Tan Yingying looked carefully at her father's expression and demeanor, and really couldn't find any flaws at all. He was protecting her and their family from the bottom of his heart.

It would be better if he was not misled by the evil god, but acted from the heart.

Tan Yingying turned her head away with a gloomy expression.

Wen Qi quickly took out a decontamination talisman, which she had prepared when she came. She took a step forward and stuck it on the man's forehead. The man froze instantly, and the talisman paper turned black and turned into a pile of ashes. The man rolled his eyes and fainted.

Tan Yingying quickly caught the man and called out in panic, "Dad!"

Wen Qi raised his chin, "Move the bed over there, he'll be fine after a good sleep. He's been treated as the lowest level of nourishment, the evil spirit left in his body by the Flower of Desire isn't much, it's easy to clean up. He won't lose his memory when he wakes up, but his attitude towards you may change a little."

Tan Yingying nodded, picked up her father with great effort and walked to the bedroom, "The tablet is in the study."

Wen Qi looked at Zhang Ke, who quickly led the way and walked to a closed door in two or three steps. "It's here." Then he suddenly took a step back to make room.

Wen Qi didn't care at all and pushed the door open. Suddenly, a refreshing floral scent hit her face. Wen Qi took a big breath and her head suddenly felt dizzy, but it only took a moment to wake up. This kind of thing was almost useless to her.

Liu Ran behind him also sneered, "Little trick." The Southern Xinjiang Gu worm is originally a highly poisonous creature, and these pollens are just garbage in front of the Gu worm.

After entering the study, Wen Qi directly summoned the secret book of metaphysics and put the tablet inside. During the whole process, the tablet did not resist at all.

Yes, a remnant soul, how can you expect it to have any decent attack? It must have taken a lot of effort to create such a scent.

Wen Qi put away the Metaphysics Secret Book and said lightly, "You can go now." After coming out of the study, she said, "Mr. Zhang, please wait here for a while. Our firm will send someone to handle the follow-up issues."

Zhang Ke nodded repeatedly and said yes.

After a few minutes, Tan Yingying came out of the room with her bag on her back. Her eyes were a little red, obviously she had been crying, but no one asked.

Zhang Ke escorted them out of the room and into the elevator. When he returned, he hesitated for a while, but he didn't dare to go in by himself, so he leaned against the door frame and stared into the room in a daze.

But it was too quiet, and he felt a little scared, so he turned around to face the outside. But as soon as he turned around, he felt a cold wind on the back of his neck, and his heart was even more frightened.

Once the fear in my heart started to rise, I couldn't suppress it no matter what I did, and the feeling would become stronger and stronger. Finally, Zhang Ke chose to lean against the gate, and finally he felt a little more secure, but he still felt unsafe everywhere.

After hesitating for a moment, he took out his phone, opened the music app, opened the playlist, and clicked play. Instantly, the entire corridor was filled with passionate singing, "The vast horizon is my love..."

Zhang Ke let out a deep breath. What a damn sense of security!
