Chapter 15 Chapter 15
The task handover point in the quiet yet solemn Kongmen Taoist temple.
Taoist Master Yunzhi placed the letter of authorization in front of the young Taoist priest who was handing it over: "It's done."
The young Taoist took it and looked at it, then smiled at him again: "Congratulations, Senior Brother, your commission this month is very considerable."
Taoist Master Yunzhi forced a smile, but he was full of worries.
"Brother, what's wrong?" The young Taoist priest asked in confusion, "Is the mission difficult? Or, did you encounter any problems?"
Taoist Master Yunzhi was a little depressed: "Your information is wrong. There are no new souls in that place, but a group of evil ghosts, led by a fierce ghost."
"Ah?" The young Taoist priest was a little surprised and a little unconvinced. He was about to ask something but was interrupted by two people coming in from outside.
"A bunch of evil ghosts, and also fierce ghosts?" The Taoist priest with freckles frowned, "Can you still complete the mission? Are you able to fight against fierce ghosts now?"
"That's impossible," the sturdy man next to the Taoist priest with freckles laughed, "There are only a few people in our Taoist temple who can deal with evil spirits. Besides, if we really fought with evil spirits, how could Yunzhi appear here unscathed?"
This is indeed true. Even their leader would get hurt after dealing with the evil spirit.
That’s not right… The Taoist priest with freckles thought hesitantly, there is another person who can remain unscathed…
Taoist Master Yunzhi smiled bitterly: "I really can't handle it. Look, I met a master..."
He briefly recounted the entire incident, and then added, "Anyway, he didn't tell me his name in the end, and he didn't allow me to ask any more questions."
The sturdy man's mouth twitched: "Sending evil spirits... to be used as labor, this kind of thing..."
The veins on the Taoist's forehead twitched: "Why does it sound so much like someone..."
Who does he look like? Before Taoist Yunzhi had time to think, he heard the strong man ask him, "Is that person a young man in his twenties, who is very good-looking and pretends to be mature with a stern face?"
Taoist Master Yunzhi hesitated for a while before saying, "Yes, he is very good-looking, no worse than a celebrity. But he doesn't look sullen, and he smiles occasionally. Oh, and when he smiles, he has a small canine tooth."
At this point, Taoist Master Yunzhi remembered something and quickly took out his cell phone: "I thought that such a capable person must be somewhat famous in our industry, so I secretly took a picture of him."
The two of them hurried over and saw a good-looking young man in the photo leaning against the window with a slight smile on his pale face, looking lazy and comfortable.
"It's him!" The Taoist priest with freckles widened his eyes. "Good fellow, he's really good at running. Where's his address? I'll go catch him!"
"Forget it," the sturdy man held him back and advised, "You missed last time, and you still want to catch him this time? That little rascal will definitely run away. Don't report this to your master, okay."
The Taoist priest with freckles was a little unwilling, gritted his teeth, and muttered: "I see that he doesn't look well, what if he is sick and can't run!"
"Even if you can't run, it's not your turn to catch him." Zhuang Han's tone gradually became serious, "Do you think that all of us old people are dead?"
These words were a bit harsh, so the Taoist priest with freckles hurried to explain to him. The two of them had a small argument before leaving.
Taoist Master Yunzhi was completely confused and could only look at his phone, muttering: "Could this person have a grudge against our Taoist temple? But who is he..."
…
On the other hand, Yuan Tian was really planning to run away. He was afraid that the Taoist priest would go back and tell others about his deception, cough, and the whole process of catching ghosts. If someone familiar with him heard it, combined with his appearance and behavior, he would be guessed in a minute.
However, perhaps he had committed too many sins, and after sending away the evil ghost, he felt a little dizzy on the way back.
Seeing his pale face, Tang Yang was worried: "How about sending you to the hospital for a checkup? You look really bad."
Xiao Jing was also worried: "Boss, did you use too much energy to catch the evil spirits? Otherwise, why don't we stay here today and take a rest?"
"No need." Yuan Tian waved her hand. "I just haven't had enough rest recently. I'll sleep for a while. You can call me when we get there."
After he finished speaking, he leaned back and closed his eyes.
Seeing this, Xiao Jing had no choice but to close his eyes. Tang Yang, however, was still worried as he saw that the child's face was not much better than that of a critically ill patient. He thought about it and quietly changed his tone.
Yuan Tian slept very deeply this time, and it seemed that someone was calling him in the middle of the night. He struggled to wake up, but only made a slight humming sound, and was pulled into a sweet dream again.
When he finally woke up, the first thing he smelled was disinfectant. He opened his eyes and saw the snow-white ceiling and the infusion bottle above his head. He was stunned for two seconds before he realized that this was a hospital.
A surprised and happy voice came from the side: "Boss, you are awake, how do you feel? Are you okay?"
At the same time, a warm big hand covered his forehead. He looked up and looked into a pair of eyes full of worry and concern.
Yuan Tian stared at those eyes in a daze and forgot to react for a moment.
Until the big hand withdrew from his forehead, and at the same time, the owner of the hand, Tang Yang, spoke in a low voice: "Fortunately, the fever has almost subsided."
"You've been unconscious for a whole day." Tang Yang's voice was a little low, but it carried a hint of unquestionable meaning, "Xiao Meng told me that you were in a hurry to leave because you might be hiding from your creditors. But you're not suitable to run around now. Why don't you stay by my side and rest for a few days? When the creditors come, I'll help you block them, okay? At worst, I'll pay it back for you first, and you can pay me back slowly."
Yuan Tian finally came to her senses, pursed her lips, and smiled at him: "Okay."
No one came for the whole day, which showed that the old guys in Kongmen Temple were betting that he had run away and had no intention of catching him.
Yuan Tian felt more at ease, and when she thought of Tang Yang's words, she felt a surge of warmth in her heart, just like the comfort and warmth of the morning sun.
After making sure his boss was awake and fine, Xiao Jing went out to play. The little ghost was still very interested in the hospital facilities in big cities, and wanted to broaden his horizons and see if he could meet new ghost friends.
Still feeling a little weak, Yuan Tian slowly sat up, slightly stretched her stiff waist, and smiled sheepishly at Tang Yang: "I'm sorry that you had to take me to the hospital. I'm sorry for the trouble."
"Don't talk nonsense," Tang Yang's face was a little gloomy for some reason. He said, "What trouble is it? I didn't say many polite words to you when you helped me deal with those ghosts in the building."
How can it be the same? Yuan Tian curled his lips. He had received money from Tang Meng. It was only natural to accept money from others to do things for them. Although, this was a bit excessive...
Just think of it as a friendly price, since they already paid a lot anyway.
Seeing the child's unconvinced look, Tang Yang's heart softened and he said, "We are friends who have shared hardships. Friends don't talk about these nonsense."
Friend? Yuan Tian stared at him blankly for a long time, then finally curved her eyebrows and smiled brightly: "Okay."
Although his smile was still somewhat sickly, it was bright and full of energy. This smile should have made people feel better, but it made Tang Yang feel inexplicably uncomfortable, and reminded him of the doctor's heavy words.
"His body data seems to be a little off, and his internal organs show signs of multiple organ failure. But he doesn't seem to have undergone any major surgery, and there is no sign of viral infection. I don't know if the high fever caused this phenomenon, or if this phenomenon caused the fever. In short, it is not suitable to move him too frequently now. I suggest waiting for him to wake up and re-examine him more thoroughly."
"If the fever is caused by organ failure, then the situation is not very optimistic. You know how important the internal organs of the human body are. Once they fail to a certain extent, then..."
The doctor didn't say it completely at the time, but the meaning was clear.
"Why do you look so unhappy?" Seeing that Tang Yang never smiled, Yuan Tian finally asked, "Did you find that the company suffered too much loss when you were dealing with the aftermath?"
"Well," Tang Yang followed up on his words, "I lost a lot of money. Fortunately, you let those ghosts go to the underworld to work, otherwise I would feel bad."
"No problem, no problem." Yuan Tian smiled with a little pride. He had done this job without any bloodshed and quite beautifully.
Let's talk about the process first, and not about the rebellion of the evil ghosts. As for the evil ghosts, he had no intention of fighting and killing since the beginning, because it was too unhealthy. So he used labor as bait to send a message to the ghost messenger. No ghost messenger who was busy with daily tasks would refuse this temptation. Then, before the ghost messenger came, he dragged the evil ghosts and prevented them from taking action. Until the ghost messenger arrived, he had nothing to do.
The evil ghost wants to fight? Fine, go fight the ghost messenger, he won't accompany you. Not want to fight? Then he has nothing to do with it. Anyway, he doesn't want to fight, fighting is not good.
As for the result, it killed three birds with one stone. First, it found a home for the ghosts, so that they would not be displaced and face the fate of being torn apart at any time, and it would prevent them from bullying the living one day. Second, it vented his anger to his new friend Brother Tang, so that his new friend would not be upset. Third, of course, it gave the underworld more ghost hands.
He thought that if he could meet some more evil spirits and send them away, when he died and went to the underworld in the future, working from nine to five would no longer be a dream.
The master said that with the strength of his soul, there is a high probability that he will be drafted into the underworld after his death. He is paving the way for his future!
Thinking of this, Yuan Tian couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth and couldn't help laughing out loud.
Seeing him laughing so happily for no apparent reason, Tang Yang felt better for some reason and couldn't help but asked with a smile, "What are you laughing at?"
"No," the kid swung his body slightly from side to side, showing his pride. He smiled widely, with bright stars in his eyes: "He was moved by my wit and handsomeness."
Tang Yang: “…………” The corners of his mouth slowly smoothed out.
He said, "Do you know what I'm thinking now?"
The kid blinked his eyes and said, "What are you thinking about? Are you impressed by my handsomeness?"
"No," he said, "I am moved by your shameless spirit."
I can’t compare, I really can’t compare!
