Chapter 420: Reluctantly Listen to More Praise
The phone is usually silent, but as soon as someone calls it will start ringing non-stop.
"Hey?"
"Senior, it's me."
"Feng Lao Si?"
"There has been some progress in the investigation of the Japanese woman."
We are all registered in the police station, but I don’t know why there is progress but you do.
He felt that Lao Ma was fooling him and should not let him off so easily. He should blackmail him.
"Tell me carefully."
"According to the investigation, the incident may have started five hundred years ago..."
"Skip this part."
He started planning five hundred years ago and still hasn't succeeded. You can tell at a glance that he's a small fry.
Feng Lao Si immediately simplified his words: "The magic of the Jiuju sect is very powerful. They may be worshipping a monster with more than 500 years of Taoism."
"Five hundred years, is that impressive?"
Tan Wenjie, who had participated in many thousand-year-old sieges against great monsters and won MVP results, and had achieved an impressive record in the ten-thousand-year siege against the Black Mountain Old Monster, believed that five hundred years was really nothing great.
Unless the opponent has found a master and undergone systematic training, even if another five hundred years is added, they will just be random wild monsters.
Strength depends on the skills, the master, the magic weapon, and whether there is someone to protect you. Whoever lives longer will be powerful, and turtles will definitely rule the land.
Feng Lao Si: “…”
Five hundred years isn’t that hard to deal with. The person on the other end of the phone wanted to swear.
"Wait, what do you mean by calling me?"
"I'm planning to go to Japan," said Feng Laosi. "Back then, Lao Ma, Xiaolian's father, and I caught thieves and ghosts together, but Xiaolian's father died after that incident, and Lao Ma also broke both of his legs. Now that Xiaolian has found someone to take care of her, I can go without any worries."
"I don't have time." Tan Wenjie refused directly, "I have a date."
"What about that Tan Wenjie?" This is Feng Laosi's real target.
Tan Wenjie said without thinking: "He is handsome, smart, rich, very charming, and has a noble fate. I don't like to praise others but he is really perfect."
"I also think so."
Feng Lao Si deeply agreed with this. He and the mysterious senior had only known each other for a short time, but he could sense that he was a very conceited person. For example, during their conversation just now, he didn't even take a monster with more than 500 years of Taoism skills seriously.
Such a brilliant figure praised Tan Wenjie in all aspects from appearance to character to talent, which shows that this person is really outstanding.
"You have a good eye." Tan Wenjie was pleased.
He might seem like Wang Po boasting about her own achievements, but Feng Lao Si's praise must be sincere.
Suddenly, his favorability towards Feng Lao Si increased significantly, and he even wanted to chat on the phone for a long time and force himself to listen to him praising him a few more times.
"What do you think, Senior?"
"I think what you said is very right, but I can't interfere in human affairs. You can discuss it among yourselves. Remember to find me if there is any danger."
Any monsters and demons that Feng Lao Si cannot deal with must be very powerful. They are like a filter. No little ghosts or demons are qualified to die in their hands.
As for asking Tan Wenjie to go with him? He is Tan Wenjie, and he has the final say.
hang up the phone.
Then another call came.
Sure enough, the calls came one after another.
……
"Old K, can you really get rich?"
In a restaurant box, Lao K’s girlfriend Amei put her arm around her boyfriend’s shoulders and asked softly.
A few days ago, she fell in love with a boss and had a brief affair with him. Unexpectedly, Lao K came to her with money soon after, bought clothes and bags for her and even planned to buy her a car.
When her idle gangster boyfriend suddenly gets rich, Amei smartly puts her boss into her own fish pond, intending to accumulate strength to use on Old K first.
She has known Lao K for so many years and can easily control him. No matter where Lao K makes his money, she will definitely get all of it into her hands.
Wearing it doesn't count as giving it, putting it in doesn't move, and if it moves it only once.
In short, she is still devoted to Lao K.
"Can these scraps of copper and iron really be sold for money?"
Amei looked at the pile of garbage on the table and suspected that Lao K might be crazy.
"What do you know?" Old K held a cigarette between his fingers and pointed at his generals, "It's all about money!"
The door opened with a click at this moment.
"Boss Tan!" Old K immediately stood up and greeted him, unable to help but put a smile on his face.
Don't smile at people, smile at money.
Tan Wenjie couldn't help but complain: "Old K, we are doing normal trading, why do you always act like we are trading contraband?"
"I want to invite you to dinner."
"Old K~" my girlfriend Amei's voice came from the side, "Please introduce him to me."
Old K was puzzled as to why Amei suddenly started talking, but he still took the initiative to introduce: "Boss Tan, this is Amei, my girlfriend."
"Hello." Tan Wenjie and Amei nodded to show that they knew each other.
She looks a bit like the female ghost Xiaoyu.
The burning and fiery look in his eyes when he looks at himself is not because he is greedy for his own beauty, but because of his strong desire for money, which is superficial.
"Boss Tan, I begged for this for a long time from my cousin." Old K pointed at the scrap metal on the table. "This is not the first time we do business together. The price was good last time."
Tan Wenjie glanced at it casually and shook his head, "It doesn't have what I want."
There seemed to be a few antiques in there, but he didn't need antiques, he wanted magical tools.
"Boss Tan, would you like to take a closer look?"
"No need to look." Tan Wenjie said, "Old K, what I want is a magic weapon that can catch ghosts."
Old K hoped for the best and said, "I'll sell it to you at a discount?"
"It's no use giving it to me for free." Tan Wenjie stood up and said, "I have something else to do and I'll leave first. Contact me when you find the real thing. Don't worry, the price is negotiable."
Although the antique shop that Lao K went to had been cut off by him and had already collected orders at high prices, Lao K's face meant that he was destined to have good luck, and maybe he would be able to get something good next time.
There was some silence in the room.
Ah Mei sneered: "You really thought you found a way to get rich, Lao K! In fact, I came to you today to tell you that we are done, don't come to me in the future!"
After saying this, he didn't care about the confused Old K, picked up his bag and left quickly.
As soon as Tan Wenjie got into the car, he saw someone leaning over and tapping gently on his car window.
Roll down the windows.
"Boss Tan," Amei asked softly, "Can you give me a ride?"
"It's not on my way." Tan Wenjie rolled up the car window, stepped on the accelerator and drove away, leaving Amei stomping her feet in anger after smelling the exhaust fumes.
"I didn't even tell you where I was going, and you're not going that way!"
Old K definitely can’t do it, so let’s go back and find the big boss.
A figure holding an umbrella on the side of the road saw this scene and couldn't help but laugh. Then he folded the umbrella and chased in the direction the car left.
……
Tan Wenjie looked at the figure holding an umbrella and waving his hand to stop a car on the roadside and slowly slowed down.
"What a coincidence." Wei Xiaodie looked surprised.
Tan Wenjie: "Yeah, what a coincidence."
He saw it clearly. Just now, Wei Xiaodie flew over hiding in an umbrella, then landed in front of him and pretended to meet him by chance.
It was the first time that someone deliberately set up a chance encounter for him, and he was a little uncomfortable with it.
It's a pity that the other person is a ghost, and one who is about to be reincarnated into the underworld, otherwise he could stay by his side as a secretary.
It is difficult for him not to be reincarnated with his own merits protecting him. Tan Wenjie did not figure out why the other party returned to the world of the living.
Watch him use his beauty to trick the other party into telling him the secret.
"You didn't find your relatives?"
"No, it seems he moved." She leaned closer to the car and said with a pitiful puppy's eyes, "I am homeless again now."
Tan Wenjie shook his head: "Miss Wei, if I can help you, I will definitely do it, but I have a girlfriend and cannot take you home."
"Ah?" Wei Xiaodie was surprised.
How can I repay the favor?
Don't even mention using ghost magic to help him make money, that's too superficial.
As a beautiful female ghost, she had to repay her gratitude by giving herself to him. She had no selfish motives. It was not because of Tan Wenjie's handsomeness, nor because of his fragrant scent.
Forget about swearing to God, she only tells the truth.
"Get in the car first."
"Thank you."
Wei Xiaodie got into the car with mixed feelings. Last night she discovered that Tan Wenjie was a gentleman, and he was protected by God's will so ordinary ghosts couldn't get close to him. Now that he said he had a girlfriend, he must be a loyal and infatuated good man.
Bite your fingers.
What should I do if I want to pledge myself to you?
But she is not a bad female ghost who likes to steal other people's boyfriends, but a beautiful female ghost who is lonely, helpless and pitiful.
The phone suddenly rang.
Tan Wenjie answered the phone.
The call was from Cheng Xiaoxi. She was going on a business trip to the UK and seemed to be undergoing training.
If a Chinese medicine practitioner goes to the UK for training but doesn't understand it, it would be a waste of time.
Wei Xiaodie, who was standing by, pricked up her ears and eavesdropped.
The ears were really "stretched", and Tan Wenjie saw it clearly.
I don’t know if other areas are as malleable. In his previous life, his favorite part of playing games was creating characters.
"Do you have any local specialties you want?"
"Local specialties? Vampires or werewolves."
"Ha ha, alright."
After hanging up the phone, Xiaonan called immediately. Tan Wenjie strongly suspected that the sisters were sitting together and calling him.
"Your dad wants to see me again?"
Cheng Xiaonan brought her boyfriend with her. This time they couldn't get together, but next time Cheng's father will definitely let the other two bring their boyfriends home as well. He knows how to clone himself, so it's no problem for him to be chopped into three halves. But the process is too bloody, so let's forget it.
I have to find an excuse. If all else fails, I can ask Lao Ma to help me get a document and pretend to be on a business trip abroad. The Cheng family definitely cannot go.
"..."
"Hey, A-Ling~"
"..."
"Hey, Xiaodong~"
"..." Wei Xiaodie hesitated to speak.
Unexpectedly, she was wrong. Tan Wenjie was not a pure man at all but a scumbag who had multiple relationships at the same time. However, Wei Xiaodie was relieved soon.
He is a scumbag, which makes it easier for me to repay him.
Magnify the gratitude phase, put away emotional dependence, then drink Meng Po soup and start a new life.
That's how female ghosts should be.
But the look she gave Tan Wenjie was a little complicated. The other party used his merits to help her reincarnate, but she used the beauty trap.
I feel uncomfortable.
"Miss Wei?"
"You can call me Xiaodie."
"Okay Miss Wei, where are you going? See if I'm on the way." Tan Wenjieyi kept his distance, "I have something important to do tonight."
"Can we still stay in the hotel we stayed at last night?" Wei Xiaodie asked. She didn't believe that she was not pretty enough, and she didn't believe that all of his girlfriends were prettier than her.
The hint was quite obvious, and Tan Wenjie found that he had no way to escape this disaster except to pretend to be confused.
But he was born not to play dumb and liked to treat others with sincerity.
"Ms. Wei, I have a girlfriend."
As a pathetic, weak and helpless ordinary philandering scumbag, all he can do is tell the other party all the interests involved, give the other party the right to choose, and then not take the initiative, refuse or take responsibility.
"I have no one to rely on and I plan to leave here to develop overseas. Mr. Tan, you are the only one who has helped me, so I don't want to have any regrets."
It is said very clearly, down to the level of 0.01.
Tan Wenjie: “…”
The other party might be trying to trick you into drinking milk, because his body has been strengthened to the point of being very nutritious, and it smells delicious in the eyes of many demons and monsters.
No more talking, just driving.
Wei Xiaodie suddenly said, "This is not the way to the hotel."
At this moment, Tan Wenjie felt like a decent man who was half-forced and half-seduced to be taken to the hotel.
"Ms. Wei, aren't you planning to go home?" Tan Wenjie decided to change the subject.
He was just playing the role of a good husband, but now he slowly feels that he has to become a real good husband and be dragged into trouble by others. It's outrageous.
"In fact, my family didn't love me and married me to an ugly man. I ran away from home."
It turns out to be a member of Qiao’s family. No wonder he likes to put it into Brother Jie’s mouth so much.
Tan Wenjie did not take her to the hotel as Wei Xiaodie said, but took her to the mall for shopping and had a meal.
Tan Wenjie: To use the beauty trap, you must cultivate emotions and make the other person willing to open up.
Wei Xiaodie: To use the beauty trap, you need to cultivate feelings and make the other person willing to do anything for you.
Plan Pass X2
"That guy is so handsome, but he is talking to the air by himself. He looks so pitiful."
Some girls felt sad when they saw this and wanted to use their not-so-rich hearts to warm the other person.
"Don't go over there. What if he really has a problem with his brain and wants to hurt you?" his companion stopped him.
"Isn't that better? Whip me hard."
"..."
The three men sitting at the next table looked at each other and learned it.
They all talked to themselves in the air.
The girls said: "Hey, there seems to be a psychopath over there, stay away from them."
Three people: "..."
Everyone's postures and movements are almost exactly the same. Why are you the melancholy guy and we are the psychos?
"Puchi." Wei Xiaodie couldn't help laughing out loud.
"What's wrong?" Tan Wenjie asked puzzledly.
“They seem to be imitating you.”
After saying this, Wei Xiaodie suddenly realized that those people couldn't see her and mistakenly thought that Tan Wenjie was talking to the air, but Tan Wenjie could see her.
"Imitate me?"
Tan Wenjie glanced at the three guys and found that none of them imitated his face, so the similarity was 0%. He told them not to humiliate themselves next time.
Wei Xiaodie stiffly changed the subject: "I'm full. When are we going to the hotel?"
"..."
The two left the restaurant together, and it was already dark outside.
"Your hands are so cold." Tan Wenjie said in surprise.
In the hot summer, it feels cool to the touch.
Wei Xiaodie was even more surprised. She didn't know when her hand was held. As a ghost, she didn't even notice it.
He is truly a top scumbag. He easily made me let down my guard. Even when I knew that he was a scumbag, I was still willing to be stabbed once.
“I’m not actually human.”
"Don't scold yourself like that."
The man and the ghost were holding hands, and suddenly Tan Wenjie's nose twitched slightly.
I noticed a man with a dark face walking towards me.
No, the other party is neither a human nor a ghost. Is his soul leaving his body?
Wei Xiaodie took the initiative to pull Tan Wenjie's hand and pulled him aside.
The aggressive man just glanced at Wei Xiaodie and Tan Wenjie, then walked towards the young man in bell-bottom pants who was smoking on the side of the road.
"Bang!" The street lamp seemed to be hit by an invisible force, and sparks burst out all over the ground.
The lamp fell and hit the young man in bell-bottom pants.
Hit right in the head, legs stretched and twitched.
"Ah!!" The scene was in chaos.
"Save people, quickly!"
Tan Wenjie watched as the soul stretched out its hand, grabbed the twitching young man in bell-bottom pants, pulled out a soul, and turned away.
It looked like a ghost catcher was catching people, but the specific process felt wrong and too rough. There was no communication throughout the whole process, and he could see clearly that the other party was not a ghost catcher.
He is not a ghost catcher, but he dares to take people's souls. He is really arrogant.
When he turned to look at Wei Xiaodie, he found that she had a frightened expression and was trembling like a rabbit.
Tan Wenjie reached out and covered her eyes, showing his boyfriend power appropriately: "Don't look."
"Yeah." Wei Xiaodie mistakenly thought that Tan Wenjie was worried that she would be scared after seeing the corpse, so she hid in his arms and avoided the sight of that figure.
Tan Wenjie's shadow fluctuated.
Yin and Yang split into two, and the clone escaped into the underground to chase after the soul that had left the body and the captured ghost.
At the crossroads, the soul that caught the ghost was about to pass through the space and leave, but he saw a big hand grabbing towards his face, with arcs of electricity flashing between the fingers.
The man's spirit quickly retreated, looking at the figure in front of him in doubt: "Are you going to interfere with public affairs?"
Tan Wenjie: "I've only heard that there are ghost catchers in the underworld. Can you, as a living person whose soul has left the body, also do part-time work?"
Although the clone's magic power is not strong, it is more than enough to deal with the soul in front of him.
"Get out of the way!" the man said anxiously, "lest he delay the time. The King of Hell wants him to die at three o'clock in the morning, and no one can keep him alive until five o'clock."
"Do you believe me?"
"My name is Zhao Zilong. I will come to find you when I wake up tomorrow."
Seeing Zhao Zilong's serious and solemn expression, Tan Wenjie made way for him and said, "I can find where your home is."
Zhao Zilong: “…”
He felt that trouble was coming and he might not be able to avoid it. The person in front of him was too strong, the gap between the two sides was too big, and he could also use thunder magic.
Anyway, it was not a job that could not be told to others, so Zhao Zilong not only took the initiative to exchange contacts, but also reported his home address, workplace, etc.
Tan Wenjie turned around.
When his sight switched, Wei Xiaodie's face appeared in front of him.
"Mr. Tan?" She looked up at Tan Wenjie worriedly.
Ghosts may not be afraid of the dead, but after all, they are all people who have died once. However, there are only a few people who are not afraid of the dead.
"I'm fine. I'll take you back to the hotel to rest."
"Ah."
Tan Wenjie booked a hotel room with a good location, so he decided to rent it for a long time so that he could bring other people besides Wei Xiaodie in the future.
"You have a good rest, I'm leaving first."
"Ah?" Wei Xiaodie hesitated, "Do you want to have something to drink before leaving?"
Tan Wenjie nodded and agreed: "Okay."
Wei Xiaodie now suspected that he was deliberately waiting for her invitation, playing hard to get.
Damn it! She had no experience when she was alive, and now her cunning as a ghost after death is not even as good as a living person. She felt that she was falling into the other party’s beauty trap step by step.
The two sides sat on the sofa and chatted casually.
Because they just saw someone being taken away by the soul catcher, it was difficult for both parties to concentrate on completing the next task. Tan Wenjie was curious. He suspected that there was something wrong in the underworld of this world, and it was not as simple as corruption.
Wei Xiaodie was very scared. As a ghost, seeing the ghost catcher was like a mouse seeing a cat.
When she was frightened, she instinctively sought shelter and support, then sniffed the fragrance that made the ghost's body hot, and her eyes gradually became blurred.
Her body twisted unconsciously like a python until her lips collided with each other.
When the Yang energy entered her body, the female ghost was shocked, as if she had tasted a delicious delicacy, and she stuck to Tan Wenjie like an octopus.
Eating yogurt is like licking the lid, very carefully.
Snap, a hand pressed against her forehead, forcing her to wake up slightly.
Then she was surprised to find that her magic power seemed to have increased.
A kiss from him actually had so many benefits, if it could be eaten... she couldn't imagine how good the effect would be.
My benefactor is really a treasure, his whole body is full of treasures!
Tan Wenjie stood up: "You have a good rest, I have to go."
As a scumbag, after exposing his philandering nature in front of the other party, both of them know that the relationship cannot last long, so it becomes very important to retreat in order to advance.
The more the other party wants it, the less he can give it.
Wei Xiaodie was sitting alone on the sofa in the hotel, in a daze, and she didn't react until more than an hour after Tan Wenjie left.
Cup your cheeks with your hands.
Very nutritious.
But a cold wind blew.
Wei Xiaodie's expression suddenly changed.
"So you escaped here."
