Chapter 11 Chapter 11
The chill in the air became more severe, and the lights above his head flickered more and more frequently, indicating that the operator was not in a calm mood.
Xiao Jing touched his chin and sighed, "He's angry. Oh! I understand! That's how I felt when the boss pressed me to the ground. I was really angry, really aggrieved, and really embarrassed!"
Tang Yang looked at Yuan Tian as if he was looking at an animal, silently accusing him with his eyes - the little kid is so cute, and you actually rubbed him on the ground!
Yuan Tian glanced at him calmly, pointed at Xiao Jing and grinned: "He was the one who almost possessed your sister."
Tang Yang's eyes were full of disbelief, as if he had heard that a pet white rabbit had evolved into a golden man-eating rabbit.
"I didn't mean it," Xiao Jing muttered aggrievedly, "I didn't mean to hurt anyone, and Tang Meng has forgiven me..."
We're chatting again!
The ghost gnashed his teeth. How disrespectful to ghosts! Finally, he couldn't stand it anymore. He didn't need to stand it anymore!
The lights on the ceiling went out with a "snap", and at the same time, some documents in the company were blown up by the wind and flew everywhere. This sudden change finally attracted the attention of Yuan Tian and the other two again, and the two of them looked over.
The ghost's long hair was flying, and his already terrifying face became even more distorted. His pair of pure black eyes were surrounded by blue veins, and he looked around at the three of them with malice. Finally, his eyes fell on Yuan Tian, who seemed the most innocent and harmless. The next second, he grinned, and like a sharp arrow, the whole ghost "whooshed" towards Yuan Tian, and was close in front of him in a blink of an eye.
The two ghost claws were wrapped in black mist, and the blackened nails were sharp and long, not blunter than a knife. Tang Yang's face changed drastically. If he was injured by these claws, he would lose half his life if he didn't die.
He rushed towards Yuan Tian in fear, copying the talisman paper, but it was too late.
"Use talisman paper!"
Following Tang Yang's heart-wrenching reminder, Xiao Jing, who was floating nearby, couldn't help but cover his eyes with his hands, as if he didn't want to see the bloody scene that was about to happen.
At this time, the evil ghost's nails as sharp as knives were already in front of Yuan Tian. Looking at the calm expression of the young man, he just thought that the child was frightened and could not react temporarily, so the ghost's face showed some satisfaction of success.
At this moment, Yuan Tian finally moved.
He was seen flashing and soon appeared on the right side of the ghost. At the same time, his left hand, which was glowing faintly, stretched forward quickly, accurately pinched the neck of the evil ghost, and then pressed down hard.
With a "bang", the evil ghost completely materialized out of control, and was pinched by the neck and pressed to the ground fiercely. Those sharp claws were wrapped in circles of light blue light at some point, and could not move.
Tang Yang, who had already rushed to where Yuan Tian was originally standing and wanted to push him away, almost couldn't stop his feet. He staggered two steps before he could barely stop.
He turned his head and looked in shock at Yuan Tian, who was half-crouching on the ground and holding the evil ghost in place. The talisman in the child's right hand was still there, but the evil ghost could not move at all.
Tang Yang: “???” What happened? !
Evil ghost: “???” Why, why can’t I move?
Xiao Jing next to him finally slowly loosened his hands that were covering his face, looked at the ghost, and shook his head to Tang Yang with emotion: "See, this is how my boss caught me in the first place."
It's like a re-enactment of the scene!
That's not right, Xiao Jing said indignantly: "Boss, you have to rub him a few times!"
Yuan Tian looked at him helplessly, and then rubbed the ghost on the floor twice as he wished.
"No, Boss!" Xiao Jing said dissatisfiedly, "You rubbed me twice, he must have rubbed me three times at least!"
The little ghost was finally satisfied only after he saw with his own eyes that his master rubbed the evil ghost again.
The evil ghost with no hope in life: “…………” The word “nima” is not enough to express his inner grief and indignation.
Tang Yang finally realized what was happening: “…………” This, is this how you catch ghosts?
Two minutes later, the scene in the office had been turned upside down.
Yuan Tian sat on a chair that came from nowhere, looking calm. Next to him was Tang Yang, who looked confused, and Xiao Jing, who looked excited.
In front of the two people and the ghost, there was an evil ghost lying on the ground, its whole body tied up by light blue light. The ghost had a face full of resentment and hatred, staring at Yuan Tian with his black eyes, and from time to time, he could hear the sound of grinding his teeth.
If Tang Meng were here right now, he would probably say, "This is just like what happened yesterday!"
Unfortunately, she was not there, so the only person who was familiar with the scene was Comrade Xiao Jing, the ghost in question. The little ghost was very excited, and kept on comforting the evil ghost, saying, "It's okay, you won't lose anything if you're caught by my boss, he's very powerful. I was caught like this!"
Evil ghost: “…………”Thank you, I don’t feel comforted at all.
Yuan Tian felt a little lazy and yawned a little. He was not in a good mood. He simply told Xiao Jing: "You have grown up and it's time for you to be independent. Do you know what to do? How I treated you in the past, you should treat him the same way now. Can you do it?"
Xiao Jing stood at attention and saluted on the spot: "I promise to complete the mission!"
After saying that, he floated straight to the evil ghost and began to brainwash him... No, he persuaded him to become a good person.
"I advise you not to be ungrateful. My boss has people under him..."
…
Seeing that the little ghost could handle things on his own, Yuan Tian nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at Tang Yang, who still looked confused and didn't know how to react. He raised his eyebrows: "Let's chat?"
Tang Yang pursed his lips and nodded silently.
After a while, the two came to the corner.
Yuan Tian confessed honestly: "I am a good person and used to be a Taoist priest."
Tang Yang breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at the evil ghost who was being "converted" by Xiao Jing, and then looked at the talismans in his and Yuan Tian's hands, with an expression that was hard to describe: "I lost."
Yuan Tian: “Hmm?”
Tang Yang held up the talisman paper and said, "It turns out that you Taoist priests don't use these things to catch ghosts. Xiao Li asked for a leave of absence from the Taoist priest."
Yuan Tian felt a little uncomfortable, smiled awkwardly, and said, "That's not the case. He is a small figure that Kongmen Temple has often sent out to do things in the past two years. He does have some strength."
Tang Yang didn't know much about this. He just heard from Xiao Li a few days ago that among the Taoist temples and Buddhist temples that are popular in the spiritual circle in recent years, Kongmen Temple is quite well-known. So Xiao Li specially found someone to make a connection and contacted the people of Kongmen Temple. As for Taoist Master Yunzhi, apart from knowing that he was sent by Kongmen Temple, he didn't know much else.
Seeing that he didn't quite believe it, Yuan Tian had to explain further: "Generally, Taoist priests and wizards have to use props to catch ghosts. My situation is quite special."
"Special?" Tang Yang was even more confused. No matter how special it was, he had never heard of catching an evil ghost with bare hands. And it was so fast, accurate, ruthless, and particularly brutal.
Yuan Tian simply said: "Generally, Taoists have to rely on tools to carry spiritual power, or use tools to guide spiritual power, so as to achieve the effect of spiritual power and tools complementing each other. I have had more spiritual power since I was a child, so I don't need to use those things to deal with this kind of little evil spirit."
Tang Yang only understood half of what he heard, so he summarized it for him: "So it means that you have amazing bones and are different from others?"
Yuan Tian blinked and said, "You can also say he is a child of destiny."
"..." Tang Yang silently changed the subject: "So, you being my bodyguard and the debts were all fake? You stayed with me because of Tang Meng?"
Yuan Tian did not deny it and smiled: "You have a good sister. However, my antique grocery store is real, and the debt is also real."
Tang Yang understood after a quick thought and felt helpless.
"Your sister seems to have a deep misunderstanding of you." Yuan Tian said with a smile, "She also said that if I directly said that I came here to help you deal with supernatural events, you would definitely chase me away."
“Ahem…” Tang Yang rolled his eyes and said after a moment’s silence, “Actually, how should I put it… I’ve been seeing those dirty things since I moved out of my old house after graduating from high school.”
"They can't get close to me, but once they find out that I can see them, they will call their friends and ghosts to come to me. Or they will ask me to do this or that for them, or scare me..."
Tang Yang paused, then smiled and said, "After a few times like that, I turned a blind eye to that kind of thing from then on."
Not only did he turn a blind eye to it, but whenever someone mentioned ghosts in front of him, he would firmly claim that he believed in science and did not believe in ghosts and gods. So gradually, people around him thought he was an atheist.
Yuan Tian had not expected this reason. He pondered for a moment, and finally said quietly: "At the beginning, you were very scared, right?"
"Ah, no." Tang Yang stroked the talisman paper with his fingers and said calmly: "It's strange to say, I never felt that they were scary from the bottom of my heart. I just thought they were quite annoying..."
Every ghost that stayed in the human world always had some kind of appeal or reason. In order to achieve their wishes or goals, they always liked to use various means to coerce and bribe Tang Yang. After a long time, Tang Yang became numb to them. Later, he learned to turn a blind eye to any ghost.
Resentful ghosts, evil spirits, wandering wild ghosts... He ignored them all. They couldn't get close to him anyway.
It was just that no matter what kind of ghost it was, it never appeared in his house. That was why he was shocked when he first saw Yuan Tian and Xiao Jing in his house. He thought that some ghost had discovered that he could actually see ghosts, so he deliberately went to his house to demonstrate to him.
Yuan Tian looked at him with sympathy. As a human who could see ghosts since birth, how could he not understand this kind of pain? He was fine. As a Taoist priest, he was quite powerful and had a master to protect him. He was the only one who was avoided by ghosts.
Unlike Tang Yang, he has to hide from ghosts and keep disguising himself.
After thinking for a while, he took off the pendant from his neck and put it back on Tang Yang. He then told him, "Keep it. This thing can really protect you. Those ghosts can't get close to your body. Maybe it's protecting you."
This gadget is more powerful than Tang Meng's. When Yuan Tian first put it on, Xiao Jing, who was hiding in his phone case, was almost shaken out. Fortunately, he acted in time to isolate the smell of the gadget, allowing Xiao Jing to calm down again.
At this time, it is time to restore it to its original state and return it to its original owner.
Tang Yang touched the pendant, which still had some of Yuan Tian's body temperature. He pursed his lips, knowing that the child in front of him didn't need his amulet at all, so he quietly put it into his clothes.
Then Yuan Tian stuffed all the talisman papers into his hands and said, "Keep this too, it will be of some use."
"Okay." Tang Yang did not refuse. Instead, he looked at Yuan Tian and asked with concern: "Are you okay? You don't look well."
The child's face was originally pale, and now it was a little blue, looking like a seriously ill patient. Tang Yang was a little worried and couldn't help asking, "Did you consume too much spiritual energy when you were catching ghosts just now?"
This sudden worry made Yuan Tian stunned for a while, and then he said: "It's okay, maybe the air conditioning here is too cold, and he got frozen."
The air conditioner was indeed cold, Tang Yang frowned slightly, but it was a pity that he didn't wear a coat today and couldn't keep the child warm. So he looked at Xiao Jing, wanting to urge the little ghost to finish the battle quickly.
Coincidentally, Xiao Jing seemed to have just finished dealing with it. He excitedly raised his head and looked at Yuan Tian, shouting as if to take credit: "Boss, I got it done! This big brother is very nice, he told me everything!"
Yuan Tian then walked over with Tang Yang and waited for the evil ghost to explain.
No one knew what Xiao Jing had said, but the evil ghost told him everything: "I was sent down here to drive you away..."
The evil ghost said that there were more than a dozen ghosts on the twenty-first floor, one of which was a fierce ghost, their leader. And he, among the ghosts, was in the middle of the group, neither better nor worse, and could not even be called a fierce ghost.
When they felt someone coming in, they didn't want to pay much attention to it. But unexpectedly, a Taoist priest suddenly ran up to the 21st floor and scattered talismans all over the place, injuring two ghosts. So their boss, the evil ghost, got angry and tied up the Taoist priest.
Then they learned from the Taoist priest that there were two ordinary humans on the 20th floor, so their boss sent the evil ghost down.
"I didn't mean to kill anyone. Our boss just asked me to scare you away." The evil ghost felt a little aggrieved, tears welling up in his black eyes: "Who knew... I failed to scare you, and ended up getting tied up..."
How miserable! The evil ghost burst into tears. He had reached the end of his life as a ghost!
Xiao Jing patted his shoulder sympathetically, feeling somewhat like him.
Yuan Tian was silent for a moment, and said with a guilty conscience: "You really wanted to hurt me just now, this is not my fault..."
"Who told you to not give me any face at all!" The evil ghost almost cried out, looking very pitiful, "I am a ghost, an evil ghost! Please at least give me some face! Ghosts also have tempers..."
Yuan Tian: “…………”
Knowing he was in the wrong, he untied the evil ghost, then abruptly changed the subject and asked about the ghosts' cultivation and temperament.
The evil ghost first confirmed with him: "Promise that after I confess everything, you can help me to be reborn in a good way!"
Yuan Tian: "...Okay!" He felt a little uneasy. He had guessed what Xiao Jing had said to make the evil ghost turn against him. It was nothing more than that sentence - there is someone underground! Hmm, maybe it should be said that there is a ghost underground?
He felt a little guilty and thought that he had exaggerated a bit.
That evil ghost really betrayed all his brothers honestly.
After he finished speaking, Yuan Tian stroked his chin and thought for a moment, then waved to the evil ghost: "Come here, I have something to tell you."
After a while, the evil ghost disappeared from the 20th floor.
Tang Yang looked at the talisman in his hand, then at the escape passage, and felt a little regretful: "I forgot to try it with him first. The talisman doesn't work. After all, I spent a lot of money on it."
Yuan Tian: “…………”
The two looked at each other, and silently cast their gazes towards Xiao Jing, who was floating in the air, with a smug look on his face because he had successfully persuaded an enemy to rebel.
The little scared man who realized it belatedly: “…………”Help, help!
A few minutes, 21st floor.
Taoist Master Yunzhi, whose hands and feet were trapped and guarded by two little ghosts, barely opened his swollen eyes and looked forward.
I saw a ghost from an unknown era floating in cautiously, reaching the two little ghosts who were guarding him, and muttering to them.
Taoist Master Yunzhi pricked up his ears and crawled towards their direction, and finally heard something.
"…It's true! The man downstairs has connections downstairs, so we can be given priority in reincarnation! The ghosts around him are a living example! I tell you, I have already made an appointment with him to be reincarnated into the richest man's family in the next life…"
Taoist Master Yunzhi: “…………”
what happened?
Who is he talking about?
Is there such a good thing?
