Chapter 28 The Upper Beam is Not Straight and the Lower Beam is Crooked



Fang Shan gently patted Wei Sushen's face with his chubby palms, and saw that the latter did not dodge and smiled with satisfaction. He had long discovered that the seemingly indifferent Wei Sushen seemed to be particularly fond of children. Even though he knew that his current state was a disguise, he still unconsciously showed a bit of indulgence.

Xiao Jun felt that the atmosphere was not very good at all, especially since his father and Liu Dali seemed to be in a brief stalemate. Xiao Qi at least brought the child to entertain him, but he could only stand aside, not knowing where to look.

He cleared his throat and broke the silence: "The starving ghost has been eliminated. No one was hurt on this trip. It can be said that everyone is happy."

Liu Dali's face became even uglier.

Fang Shan was glad that the host he brought was not as stupid as Xiao Jun. After "killing two birds with one stone" last time, Xiao Jun's ability to use idioms had obviously improved again.

"Everyone is happy indeed," Liu Dali said with a meaningful look, "I admire the Xiao family's style."

Xiao Zhitong did not make any excuses, but secretly decided that even if he went to kill monsters by himself in the future, he would never bring Xiao Qi with him.

Behind him, several staff members with weak legs supported each other and left, with bitter faces and sighing about their bad luck.

Although they knew that there were demons and monsters in the world, and that there were exorcists and law enforcers for dual protection, everyone felt that they would not be the unlucky one in a million who would encounter one.

"I will never do this kind of part-time job again."

Vows like these gradually dissipated into the air as they walked away.

Liu Dali was about to take Li Kai's body back to report, but when he saw the face that suddenly became old, he was stunned.

Wei Sushen didn't feel guilty at all, and said calmly: "It's probably a side effect of merging with the starving ghost."

Liu Dali didn't think much about it. He called other people for help and found a way to quietly send the body out of the amusement park.

Ding!

【Task progress: completed.】

Evaluation: Good. Plays a supporting role in suppressing the Hungry Ghosts. Excellent team awareness grants an additional 10 Spirit Points.

Reward: Little Green Bottle+. 】

With previous experience, Wei Sushen directly clicked on the '+':

Type: small green bottle

Function: This is a magical bottle that can continuously produce weight loss plaster.

Cooldown time: two minutes.

According to Fang Shan, the more tasks you complete, the more valuable the dropped items will be.

Wei Sushen thought about it for a moment and understood what this thing represented -

business opportunities.

There is no need to invest in raw materials, the cost of publicity is enough to help a poor boy start from scratch.

The Xiao family's car was already parked at the door. Wei Sushen didn't sit in the passenger seat because he was carrying a child. Xiao Zhitong closed his eyes to rest, while Xiao Jun kept texting and cursing at Qiu Xingluo.

The radio was on in the car and no one was paying attention to Wei Sushen.

Fang Shan spread out his palm and drew a few strokes on it: Do you still want to continue the mission?

Wei Sushen whispered, "If we give up, how will we settle the remaining spiritual power?"

Fang Shan: "Reset."

Seeing that Wei Sushen didn't say anything, Fang Shan asked playfully, "Do you feel cheated?"

Whenever you pull away, you will lose some spiritual power, which will tempt people to jump in again and again.

Unfortunately, Wei Sushen didn't show any regret on his face, which disappointed Fang Shan who was waiting to see the show.

Mr. Xiao was practicing calligraphy at home. Fang Shan came in and saw this scene. He whispered in Wei Sushen's ear: "It's obviously done for us to see."

It's too pretentious to write in the living room instead of in the study.

However, the old man's handwriting is still quite good. The strength is just right, and just one word is powerful.

"Take it."

Just two words, without specifying who should take it.

Xiao Jun glanced at Xiao Zhitong, and seeing that his father didn't move, he didn't move either. Old Master Xiao smiled faintly, taking in their respective expressions.

A pair of chubby little hands reached out inconspicuously: "Thank you, great grandfather."

Old Master Xiao was startled by this name. He had already asked people to investigate the child's background, but the time was too short and there was no reply yet.

It is not right to scold a cute fat baby directly.

Mr. Xiao avoided a direct response and shook his head: "You have good taste."

Wei Sushen picked up Fang Shan and said, "He got sleepy in the car. I'll take him upstairs first."

Several people looked at the energetic little fat boy, and no one said anything.

Fang Shan sat on the soft big bed, casually put the written words aside, and continued with the previous question: "Leave or stay?"

"Let's go." This time Wei Sushen answered without hesitation.

Fang Shan curled his lips and said, "Don't you want to try your luck again?"

Wei Sushen: "I have a brain."

This sentence seems to have become the standard answer to Fang Shan.

Fang Shan found a pillow to lean on and said with a smile, "That's right. After all, free labor doesn't always come to your doorstep." He was impressed by Wei Sushen's decisiveness. After a while, he asked, "What are you planning to take with you? The Rejuvenation Technique, the Gu worm, or the little green bottle?"

"Insect."

Fang Shan frowned slightly: "Have you thought about it?"

The value of the small green bottle is obviously higher than that of the insect.

Wei Sushen: "It's called Shanshan."

Fang Shan was stunned.

Wei Sushen: "I gave it a name."

Fang Shan's eyes were slightly complicated. "Since we've already made the decision from the beginning, there's no need to carry out another mission."

Wei Sushen opened the jar, and Shanshan crawled out from it, wrapping herself around his fingertips. In addition to being a crazy fan, she was actually loyal too.

"Can I take you away?" Wei Sushen asked.

The fat bug arched its body in emotion.

Fang Shan immediately threw away his previous feeling of being touched and looked at him in disbelief... He didn't even forget to boost the favorability of a bug, what a beast!

Wei Sushen was calm and composed... No matter what you raise, it's important to prevent it from biting you back. Given how lustful this bug is, who knows if it sees someone young and beautiful one day, it might just run off with them.

Fang Shan crossed his arms and said, "I am ashamed to be associated with you."

"The mission was successful," Wei Sushen slowly brought up a few bottles of wine, "How about having a champagne party to celebrate?"

Fang Shan licked his lips and extended his pinky finger: "Pink pinky promise, let's be partners forever."

Wei Sushen stared at him: "How long is your forever?"

Fang Shan was about to speak when he was interrupted: "Tell the truth."

He swallowed his original words and asked tentatively: "Is this bottle of wine finished?"

Wei Sushen took back the bottle of wine that had been handed to him with a smile, and remained indifferent no matter how Fang Shan accused him of being treacherous.

The two of them fell into a cold war, and frankly speaking, it was Fang Shan who started the cold war unilaterally. Last time, Wei Sushen coaxed them with a bottle of wine, but this time it was obviously not that easy.

Wei Sushen hesitated for a moment: "Two bottles?"

Fang Shan's eyes moved, but he held back.

Wei Sushen: "Three bottles."

Fang Shan walked to the table without saying a word, and after a moment held up a piece of paper: Zeng Jing, you are the one who made me happy, and now, you are the one who made me sad.

Wei Sushen's expression changed slightly: "...Stop making trouble."

Fang Shan moved his pen and wrote on the back of the paper: I promise to you, please tell me.

Wei Sushen resisted the urge to stuff him back into school: "Three and a half bottles, no more."

Fang Shan finally came back from the world of Shamatte and smiled at Wei Sushen in a friendly manner: "Cheers, good friends forever."
