Before Lu Xu could tell him about Fan Zeng, Peng Hanfei called to complain.
The man thought he could use this opportunity to severely damage Lu Xu, but he didn't expect the director to teach him a lesson instead.
"Xiu Nian is under Lu Xu's watch, so it has nothing to do with you. You might as well think about how to improve your business capabilities. Look at how badly your performance has declined recently. OK, busy, hanging up."
The performance of the Southwest Death God Department has improved relatively during this period, but it is still far behind Lu Xu's level.
The director doesn't like infighting. As long as it is not a matter of principle, he basically turns a blind eye.
Lu Xu listened to them talking on the phone the whole time and couldn't help asking, "Minister, is Fan Zeng's case really nothing to do with you?"
"It's all fate." The minister waved his hands and didn't show that he cared too much. "Every year, there are people who escape death, and those medical workers snatch a lot of heads from our hands."
Speaking of which, the only people who can snatch people from the hands of the god of death without being punished are medical personnel.
Many times, the patient has already entered a state of death, but they just refuse to give up and keep trying to save him, and there are indeed many times when they are saved.
The underworld declared that "saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda", so in this case, they can only let them go.
Ji Xiunian was able to save Fan Zeng, and in essence, Fan Zeng's life should not have died.
The minister said so, Lu Xu shrugged and said no more.
"The letter of appointment has been sent for approval, and the transfer order is expected to come soon. Xiao Lu, you are short of people in the east now, so I will assign Ji Xiunian to you. Didn't you say before that you wanted a blank sheet of paper? This pure white, you can do whatever you want with it, how good."
Lu Xu didn't expect that the same task related to Ji Xiunian, but the nature of the before and after is completely different.
Facing the minister's eager eyes, Lu Xu finally nodded: "Okay."
Since the minister said so, it means that the higher-ups have already decided.
The client suddenly became a colleague, although Lu Xu was a little uncomfortable, he could accept it.
Even though he accepted the task, the minister still felt uneasy and couldn't help but give more instructions: "Xiu Nian is a newcomer, please take good care of him."
"Yeah, do I look like the kind of person who bullies the younger generation?" Lu Xu pursed his lips, thinking that the minister's care for Ji Xiunian was related to his mother. When Xie An was still a newcomer, the minister didn't say so much.
"Okay, I will contact you directly after the appointment notice comes down, and you can bring him here to report."
"No problem."
Lu Xu left the headquarters without looking back, thinking about how to convey this news to Ji Xiunian.
On the other hand, there was already relevant information about Fan Zeng's medical treatment on the Internet.
A blogger broke the news that he received news that Fan Zeng fainted in the morning and was sent to the hospital for treatment——
【@吃瓜小能手: New melon! The director of the popular show "Birth of Idols", Fan Zeng, was reported to be hospitalized late at night for treatment. The specific reason is still unclear. I hope he is safe. 】
There are many people who stay up late at night. Many fans are busy voting for their favorite contestants late at night, and as a result, they saw this news.
【@最爱BTT: No way, Director Fan is in the hospital? ! But please don't be in trouble. The show has only been recorded halfway. Can we still see the performances of the brothers next week? QAQ】
【@旭仔是我小王子: Is this true? If the director is in the hospital, can the show continue to be recorded? Ah ah ah, please be fine, you must be safe. 】
【@Xu Lele’s girlfriend outside the entertainment industry: Ahhhhhhhhh, stop it. I get scared when I see people mention the show “Birth of an Idol”. The instructor they hired just failed, and now the director is in the hospital. I have to say that this show is too disastrous. 】
…
#Idol’s Birth# and Fan Zeng’s name were on the hot search again. Everyone who clicked in had almost the same idea -
this show crew is really too disastrous.
Many people are worried that if something really happens to the director, whether the recording of the show can continue.
No one wants Fan Zeng to get into trouble, and the fans feel the same way.
From the fans’ perspective, the boys they like come to participate in the show for their dreams. Artists perform on stage, fans vote in the audience, this is youth and also a common memory between them.
The previous incident of Qu Dehui's failure as a mentor has made people feel a little nervous. Now we don't know how the recording of the show will go. If the director gets into trouble again, the progress of the show will be affected.
No one can bear the thought that the debut show of the trainees they support will be stranded.
But no one knows what the current situation of Fan Zeng is, so we can only wait and pray that he is okay.
Ji Xiunian was upset while waiting for Lu Xu. He was stroking Ba Mei and browsing Weibo, and naturally saw the fans' worries.
Many fans also came to his Weibo to check in and ask about Fan Zeng's health.
But the fact is that even Ji Xiunian himself doesn't know what Fan Zeng's next fate will be.
If possible, he really hopes that Fan Zeng is fine. Even if it's not for the show but for his family, he hopes that Fan Zeng will not get into trouble.
Thinking of this, Ji Xiunian couldn't help but worry about Lu Xu again, and he didn't know what the situation was like over there.
According to what Peng Hanfei said before, running away seemed to be a major mistake.
He didn't want his long-time friend to get into trouble, nor did he want Lu Xu to be embarrassed because of him.
Although Lu Xu said it was okay, Ji Xiunian couldn't help but think about it.
Just when he felt the strings in his heart were tense, there was a sound of knocking on the glass outside the window again.
"Meow..." The eighth sister, who was originally dozing off, sat up immediately and stood in front of Ji Xiunian in a defensive posture.
The knocking sound on the glass became louder and louder, and then stopped for a moment, and soon there was the sound of the window being pulled.
"Meow!" The eighth sister was like facing a powerful enemy, and the hair on her back stood up.
Ji Xiunian suddenly thought of something. When he brought the eighth sister in just now, it seemed that he forgot to close the window...
So, has the evil spirit been lurking outside waiting for an opportunity to strike?
As if to confirm his thoughts, the curtain fluttered, and the black air from before came in with the wind.
In Ji Xiunian's eyes, it was just a shapeless black mist. But despite this, he could still clearly feel the evil intent it exuded.
Compared to the early morning, the mist of the evil spirit was obviously much larger.
It stared at Ji Xiunian greedily, but seemed to be a little afraid of Ba Mei, and lay still.
Ba Mei was always lazy and confused, but tonight she was unusually ferocious.
"Meow..." It made a threatening sound in its throat, and stood in front of Ji Xiunian, facing the evil spirit, pacing back and forth with its thick claws.
The evil spirit's attention was all on Ji Xiunian, and it felt extremely anxious.
It was originally an extremely weak evil spirit, but since it accidentally learned to devour the death energy of other evil spirits, it has slowly become stronger.
Not long ago, it just devoured an evil spirit whose fighting power was comparable to its own. Devouring is different from eating. The better the food, the bigger the appetite.
If it was still thinking about the long-term plan in the early morning, now it just feels that it can't bear it for a second.
Now Ji Xiunian exudes a strong death energy, which is the best food for the evil spirit. If it can eat Ji Xiunian, then it will no longer have to worry about anything in the future.
"Eat..."
"Eat..."
"Eat..."
The evil spirit made "gurgle" and "gurgle" sounds in its throat. After listening carefully, it was discovered that it was talking about eating people.
Ji Xiunian had had nightmares before, but this was the first time he faced such a thing directly.
For a moment, he even wanted to take out his mobile phone to search on Baidu to see what to do if he saw a ghost.
But the evil spirit obviously didn't want to give him time, and began to circle around Ji Xiunian.
Its fangs were very long, and it was obvious that it had a physical body.
Ji Xiunian could even imagine that if he was bitten by this evil spirit with a mouth full of teeth, he would be afraid that his head would fall off.
He stared at the evil spirit vigilantly, fearing that he would suddenly attack.
Before the evil spirit appeared, Ji Xiunian thought that it didn't matter even if he died.
But after the evil spirit really descended, Ji Xiunian realized that he wanted to live.
Only by living can he see Lu Xu, and only by living can he do things that he hasn't had time to try.
Between life and death, Ji Xiunian suddenly burst out with a strong desire to survive.
He looked around and picked up the ornaments on the table. In fact, he didn't know whether physical attacks would work on evil spirits, but he had to try it to know whether it was useful or not, right?
The evil spirit was getting bigger and bigger, and it seemed that it didn't take Ji Xiunian seriously.
On the one hand, it avoided the Eighth Sister, and on the other hand, it was planning to attack.
The Eighth Sister lowered her body, obviously ready to attack.
Suddenly, the evil spirit rushed straight towards them, with its long fangs aimed at the Eighth Sister, obviously wanting to get rid of the troublesome kitten first.
Seeing this, Ji Xiunian didn't think twice, picked up the Eighth Sister, and swung his hand to hit the evil spirit hard.
The huge impact forced the evil spirit to retreat to the window unconsciously, obviously not expecting Ji Xiunian to have this ability.
Even Ji Xiunian himself found it incredible.
As an actor, Ji Xiunian learned boxing and practiced fighting for filming. Although he looks cold and gentle, his attack power is not low, and he is even considered a strong man.
Humans always have an inexplicable fear of the unknown.
Just like Ji Xiunian was a little afraid of evil spirits at the beginning.
But once they discover that their abilities are beyond imagination, humans will become very brave.
Ji Xiunian is the same.
Seeing that the physical attack is effective, the uneasiness in his heart is reduced, and he just looks at the evil spirit with caution.
Taking advantage of the evil spirit's rest, Ji Xiunian put the eighth sister on the sofa, and even rubbed its little head gently.
In its eyes, the eighth sister is a little cutie. There is no reason to hide behind the little cat, but to protect this little cat.
"Eat it..."
Perhaps because of the activity, the death aura on Ji Xiunian's body was even more intense than before.
The evil spirit felt a torment in his stomach, and suddenly swooped down to attack.
Ji Xiunian continued to defend, and forced the evil spirit back to the corner several times.
However, the evil spirit had become conscious, and when it saw that it could not attack for a long time, it thought of other ways.
It still rushed towards Ji Xiunian, but when it was about to reach him, it suddenly stretched its body and wrapped around him, slowly tightening in circles like a python.
Ji Xiunian felt uncomfortable in his lungs, and when he was about to struggle, he heard Lu Xu's voice from the room: "Oh, these days there are still orders to deliver goods to your door."
