Fatty Wang came over with a peach wood sword, looking around nervously, and asked anxiously, "Gu Ying, where is that little ghost from just now? He won't come back again!"
"He has turned to ashes and will never come back. Give the sword back to me." Gu Mingtai snatched the peach wood sword from his hand without any hesitation.
Fatty Wang trembled a little, and immediately walked to Gu Mingtai and Zhang Meng and stood close to them.
"And your Buddhist beads, return them to us too." Zhang Meng pointed at the Buddhist beads on Director Xiao's hand unhappily.
"Here, here, here." Director Xiao returned it with a smile.
Taking a look at the stylish house, Zhang Meng knew they were wealthy. Thinking of what Director Xiao had just done, she coughed lightly and said seriously, "Director Xiao, we helped you get rid of the evil spirit from your father. You saw how dangerous it was just now. Shouldn't we settle the bill?"
Director Xiao opened his mouth, his eyes suddenly rolled a few times, and then he immediately smiled and said, "It's worth it, it's worth it. Just tell me how much it costs. I'll pay for it, I'll pay for it."
"Two thousand yuan, huh?" Zhang Meng saw his mouth drop open when he said that number, and she explained unhappily, "Don't think it's too much. I'm telling you, based on the danger we just experienced and the talisman paper we used, I shouldn't charge you this much, it should be more. But since I see you have a deal with my fiancé, I'm charging you a little less. Do you understand?"
Director Xiao quickly closed his mouth and smiled again, "I understand, I understand, it's not much, it's not much, I'll give it to you later."
When they came out of the room next time, Zhang Meng and Gu Mingtai were followed by Wang Dapang, their loyal follower.
When Director Xiao settled Mr. Xiao and went downstairs again, he had a bulging envelope bag in his hand.
Zhang Meng took it, pressed it with her hand, and saw a thick stack of money. Her eyes lit up.
Seeing her like this, Gu Mingtai raised the corner of his mouth, his face full of doting.
"Could you two please tell me if you can find out who put that little ghost on my dad?"
When asking this question, a fierce expression flashed across Director Xiao's face.
Gu Mingtai glanced at him calmly, "We can't find out about that, but we can tell you that once the little ghost attached to your father is eliminated, the person who harmed your father will definitely suffer a backlash, so even if he doesn't die, he will be seriously injured."
After hearing this, Director Xiao still looked unwilling to accept it and said harshly, "Even so, I'm not willing to let that person get away with it. But since you two can't find out, then forget it."
When leaving the Xiao family, Zhang Meng passed by the mourning hall that had just been set up in the Xiao family, and suddenly saw an unwilling male ghost standing next to the coffin. This man was the grandson of the Xiao family who was killed by Nie Bingxin. It seems that the injustice of the Xiao family will still cause trouble.
After leaving the Xiao family and walking a long way, Zhang Meng realized that after leaving the Xiao family, Fatty Wang had been following them and had never left.
"Comrade Wang, everything is fine now. You can go back and don't have to follow us anymore." Zhang Meng looked at him and said.
Fatty Wang rubbed his hands together, a flattering smile on his face. "I know. I'll be back soon. I just wanted to ask if you guys need any help with anything else. Also, can you help me check if I'm clean?"
I just ran into a ghost, and I don’t know if I’ve been contaminated by that kind of bad luck.
Gu Mingtai glanced at his slightly darkened forehead and said with pursed lips, "Just put the talisman paper I gave you at the beginning in the bath and wash yourself."
Fatty Wang immediately took out the talisman paper from his pocket and held it tightly. "Okay, okay, I will definitely listen to you."
After parting ways with Wang Dapang, the two did not return to the hotel, but instead wandered around this big city.
At the same time, the scene at the Nie family was completely different.
This morning, the servant who was helping the Nie family got up and called Mr. Nie to have breakfast. The servant called several times at the door but Mr. Nie didn't respond. Out of worry, the servant went into the house. As a result, he found that Mr. Nie was lying on the bed unconscious, with a large pool of blood beside his pillow. For a while, the Nie family was in chaos again early in the morning.
The two took the bus directly to the largest overseas Chinese store in Shanghai.
Once inside, Zhang Meng realized that the things he had seen in his hometown were rare here.
"Gu Mingtai, this looks like a scented soap. I heard it's much more fragrant than the laundry soap we usually use. Let's buy some and take it back, okay?"
At this time in the store, Zhang Meng happily held a bar of soap and talked to the man next to her.
Gu Mingtai looked at her gently and said, "I'll do as you say. We'll buy whatever you want, and the money will come from my pocket."
Zhang Meng smiled happily and immediately called the waiter to ask for a few yuan. However, when the waiter asked, she found out that the soap here cannot be bought casually. One must have a residence permit here, and each household can only get two yuan per month.
Zhang Meng's good mood was suddenly hit when she heard that she couldn't buy it. She walked back to Gu Mingtai with a bit of a depressed look on her face.
Gu Mingtai looked at her amusedly and asked, "Do you really want to buy this soap?"
Zhang Meng nodded gloomily. "I think we don't sell this in our county. I want to take a few back with me, but unfortunately I need a residence permit."
Gu Mingtai smiled and rubbed her head. "Wait for me here. I'll be away for a while and will be back soon."
Zhang Meng immediately asked, "Where are you going?" "You'll know soon." He turned and walked away.
