Chapter 116: Fight
Zhou Yannan's inexplicable words made Zhou Changming lose his temper. He even didn't concentrate on eating. However, he ate very happily. Even the plate of beef that was complained about being overcooked was eaten cleanly, which made Zhou Changming speechless.
After dinner, Zhou Changming was about to drive him home, but Zhou Yannan suddenly couldn't say anything and went back to his room.
Although Zhou Changming was speechless, he had no choice but to think that this man had a strange temper due to his age, and went to the study to talk to the people in the company about Jiang Wu's agency contract.
He quickly drafted a contract and sent it to Han Chong, and at the same time selected a good agent from Xinghe to give to Jiang Wu.
"Huang Yiming has only been in the industry for a short time, but he is very capable, especially good at anti-black and marketing, which is very suitable for a maverick artist like Jiang Wu."
"Okay, I'll let Jiang Wu take a look when he comes back."
Zhou Changming glanced at the time and said casually, "Why are you still going out so late?"
"Well, he said he was going to meet someone and wouldn't let me see him off." Han Zhong said.
Zhou Changming smiled and said, "Why, are you jealous?"
"That's not the case. I'm just afraid that he'll go out and fight with others."
Speaking of fighting, Zhou Changming couldn't help but think of the scene of Jiang Wu and Zhou Changming fighting in the backyard of the Qin family that night. In fact, it was the first time he really saw Zhou Yannan fight, but because he knew the opponent's background, he could still accept it. However, the mysterious methods displayed by Jiang Wu really shocked him. Those golden and red spells that were entangled around him looked weird and mysterious.
He remembered what Jiang Wu had told his third uncle about, a sorcerer. It was said to be a kind of Taoist sect that flourished during the Great Zhou Dynasty a thousand years ago and was quite powerful.
"What's the matter with that sorcerer Jiang Wu? If he is so powerful, why did he live such a miserable life before?"
"I don't know." Han paused on the other end of the phone, "I haven't asked him yet."
Zhou Changming expressed his understanding. His father was imprisoned for robbery, his mother died of illness, he dropped out of high school, and was framed by his teammates whom he spent every day with. These are all scars, and it is difficult to ask questions if the person involved does not speak up.
"It doesn't matter who he is, it's the same to me."
In fact, when Han Zhong first saw Jiang Wu falling from the sky, he had already vaguely realized that his identity was not ordinary, but his rejection of mysterious existence made him ignore this point.
After Zhou Changming hung up the phone, he went out to get a glass of water. When he passed Zhou Yannan's room, his mind suddenly popped up what Han Zhong said about Jiang Wu going out after dinner, and he inexplicably had a strange premonition.
"Third Uncle?" He reached out and knocked on Zhou Yannan's door. "Third Uncle? Zhou Yannan?"
He called out to Zhou Yannan several times. In the past, even if the person in the room was asleep, they would run out and kick him. But now there was no movement inside. Zhou Changming felt uneasy and turned around to get the spare key and opened the door.
The room was empty. Zhou Changming went to check the bathroom again, but still no one was there.
“…”
Zhou Changming took a deep breath, picked up his cell phone and started calling someone.
The phone rang for five or six times before Zhou Yannan's absent-minded voice rang out, "What's up?"
"Where have you been?"
“…”
After a moment of silence, Zhou Yannan replied, "You are an unfilial son who dares to enter the elders' room casually."
Zhou Changming didn't care what he said, but heard some big news from his side. He immediately became alert and asked, "Are you driving?"
"Yes, I'm driving... Ugh!" The end of the sentence suddenly turned into a muffled groan, followed by a short, "Hang up!"
Zhou Changming listened to the "beep" sound on the other end of the phone, full of suspicion. Finally, he sent a message, telling him to remember to take the small road when he came back and not to get caught.
At the same time, from a ruined building somewhere in the eastern suburbs of Linhai, golden and red lights burst out from time to time, and then quickly disappeared.
In the abandoned building, Zhou Yannan leaped back, and the next second a two-finger-wide steel pipe pierced into the ground where he had just stood. At the same time, a thunder talisman torn in two fell to the ground. Blue lightning appeared and disappeared from time to time, making a "sizzling" sound, and soon lost its magic power and turned into a piece of waste paper.
There was a sound of footsteps in the darkness ahead, and Jiang Wu, who was wearing a beige home suit, slowly walked up to him. "Aren't you going to break my head? How dare you distract yourself and answer the phone?"
"Just letting my family know I'm safe."
"Then are you still going to fight?"
"No more fighting."
Zhou Yannan wiped the dust off his face and glanced at the thunder talisman on the ground. Although this person didn't dare to touch the thunder talisman, he was able to destroy it one second before it took effect. If they continued fighting, they would just be fighting each other, a pure waste of time.
"Then I'm leaving."
Jiang Wu turned around and left. This man had urged him to come out and fight on WeChat before four o'clock in the afternoon, but he stopped fighting after less than half an hour. Fortunately, he had missed the dinner with Han Zhong, so maybe he could catch a midnight snack if he went back now.
"Are you in a hurry?"
"Going back for a midnight snack?"
"Celebrities still eat midnight snacks?"
“…”
Jiang Wu thought that this person was just making small talk, so he walked forward. Suddenly, a voice came from behind him, "What do you want to do with the God-Guiding Bell?"
Jiang Wu turned around with some surprise, "Do you know the Divine Bell?"
"My stuff."
“…”
Jiang Wu felt that this person was really shameless, "Why don't you say that you gave birth to the child?"
Over the past thousand years, the Shenxiao Sect has had many branches, and no one knows which branch this person is from, yet he has the nerve to say that the Divine-Guiding Bell belongs to his family.
Zhou Yannan opened his mouth to say something, but swallowed it back. "Calling gods and summoning souls is against common sense, and should not be used lightly."
Jiang Wu didn't care what he said and turned around and left.
Zhou Yannan immediately spoke up, "Don't you want to know where the remaining black jade is? Don't you need it very much?"
As Jiang Wu walked, he was thinking about bringing some barbecue back on the way back, so he took out his phone and called Han Zhong to ask him if he wanted to bring anything. As soon as the call was connected, Zhou Yannan's voice came from behind him -
"The Siming Clan is not allowed to arbitrarily change the cause and effect. Do you want to repeat the same mistake?"
“…”
Jiang Wu raised his hand to hang up the phone, and his indifferent voice echoed in the dark and silent abandoned building, "Do you know Siming Master?"
Before he finished speaking, a golden-red light appeared under his feet, and two chains formed by spells slowly emerged from the ground and attacked Zhou Yannan at a speed as fast as a spirit snake!
At the same time, Han Zhong in Ziyuan had just answered Jiang Wu's call. Before he could ask him what was going on, he heard a familiar voice. Although he didn't hear clearly what was said, he could still recognize it as Zhou Yannan's voice. However, before he could ask, Jiang Wu suddenly hung up the phone.
He felt a little uneasy and immediately called Zhou Changming, "Is Zhou Yannan at home?"
Zhou Changming on the other end of the phone was worried about his old man going out in the middle of the night and driving without a license. Hearing this, he panicked, "He went out at 6:30 and said he had an appointment... What happened?"
"Jiang Wu also left home at six o'clock today and didn't even have time to eat dinner. He suddenly called me just now and hung up without saying a word. I think I heard Zhou Yannan's voice on the phone."
“…”
The two childhood friends on the phone were silent for a second and suddenly remembered that day in the Qin's backyard. The two seemed to have added each other as friends on WeChat and said they wanted to make an appointment to play another game.
But no one present at the time took it seriously. After all, they were all adults. Who would go out of their way to add someone on WeChat to arrange a fight? But they obviously ignored the fact that the two parties involved were both serious people, which was rare to find.
"I'll call Jiang Wu and ask—"
"No."
Zhou Changming said in a gloomy tone, "I bought the old man's new phone. I secretly installed a tracking device. You can come directly to me."
Han Zhong: “…Okay.”
