Chapter 18 Additional Price


Chapter 18 Additional Price

During the days of being imprisoned, Wen Ting thought countless times that she would call the police after leaving and make Huo Xingye, a scumbag, pay the price.

But this idea was suppressed on the way to the hospital in the ambulance.

Doctor Chen Ming, the young man who came to pick her up, gave a detailed introduction to the Huo family's status in Yuncheng. It would not be an exaggeration to say that a local emperor would not be able to offend her, an ordinary girl with no power.

It's better to recover from your illness, get a compensation and leave, and you can live a good life wherever you want in the future. After all, Huo Xingye didn't really do anything to her for so many days except restricting her freedom.

Even her current physical problems were caused by her own hunger strike and long-term deprivation of nutrients.

Wen Ting opened her mouth several times to refute, but was unable to do so. She was at a loss.

She said it as if she was like this because of her ignorance, but she couldn't think of any other way besides going on a hunger strike. She couldn't just die headlong, right? She wanted to leave, not die.

Wen Ting was silent.

Before getting off the bus, Chen Ming still smiled gently, "You should think carefully during your stay in the hospital. Miss Wen is a smart person and will definitely make the most correct choice."

Wen Ting closed her eyes tiredly and thought, luckily she thought Chen Ming was a gentle and kind-hearted man before, but now that she looks at him, he is clearly a smiling tiger in human skin.

——

In the afternoon of the next day, Gu Qingyin went to a Cantonese-style tea restaurant in the city center as scheduled. She ordered a few plates of food and read information while eating while waiting for Liu Ergou to come over to join them.

Liu Ergou sent the information yesterday, but she was busy drawing talismans and preparing magic weapons, so she never had time to read it.

The client this time is a young wealthy businessman named Gu Xifeng. Looking at the photos, he looks a bit like a Confucian businessman. He has a good reputation from the outside world. He has a successful career, a loving husband and wife, and is a real winner in life.

Gu Qingyin's eyes fell on Gu Xifeng's face, and she thought to herself that the rumors from the outside world were indeed untrustworthy, and his appearance clearly did not match his reputation.

Gu Xifeng's request was to catch ghosts, but the ghosts he caught could not be saved or killed. He wanted to keep them as an offering.

Gu Qingyin: ...are you sick?

Gu Xifeng said that this ghost was a particularly important person to him during his lifetime, and he was reluctant to let her go. He had previously asked a heavenly master to seal the ghost in the villa, but something went wrong a few days ago. This ghost showed a particularly strong will. Aggressive and completely unable to communicate.

Over the past few days, the ghosts became more and more aggressive, and the blockade of the villa was almost unbearable.

Gu Xifeng had no choice but to ask the Heavenly Master for help.

After reading the information, Liu Ergou also came.

Gu Qingyin asked: "Gu Xifeng didn't kill him, right?"

Liu Ergou was stunned for a moment before he realized what he was doing. He raised his head and said, "No, I've investigated it. It's suicide."

Gu Qingyin nodded and continued to ask: "What is the relationship between them?"

Liu Ergou straightened his back and bent it again, "Is this important?"

Gu Qingyin looked serious, "It's not important, but I'm curious. It's a woman's nature to gossip."

Liu Ergou said, "You can ask the person involved then."

"Okay." Gu Qingyin stood up, picked up the last piece of snack and stuffed it into her mouth, "Go now."

Liu Ergou glanced at the empty plate, sighed regretfully, and talked without even taking a bite!

The villa that seals off ghosts is in the eastern suburbs of Yuncheng.

It is surrounded by mountains and rivers and has great scenery. Many wealthy people will buy a villa here. However, it is too far from the city. The heads of households only come to stay for a few days to take a break from work, so most of the villas are empty. With.

Therefore, it was convenient for Gu Xifeng to place the ghost.

When the two arrived, Gu Xifeng was already waiting outside the villa's courtyard. "Taoist Master." Gu Xifeng came over, nodded politely, and went straight to the point, "Do I need to make any preparations?"

Liu Ergou shook his head, took out his phone and looked at the time, "Wait for another ten minutes."

He stared at the villa with heavy eyes, his heart tightening. This ghost committed suicide. He was trapped after death and resentment grew. Now he has turned into a powerful ghost. The entire villa is shrouded in ghost energy. The charms used to block the ghosts before have long been useless.

The reason why the evil ghost didn't run out was because he had turned into an earthbound spirit and couldn't run away at all.

Gu Qingyin was also observing, and after making a quick judgment, he sent a message to Liu Ergou.

After Liu Ergou read it, he told Gu Xifeng the situation with a serious expression, and finally pointed out the key point - to raise the price.

Gu Xifeng smiled instead of being angry, "Does the Taoist mean that she can't leave now even if she wants to?"

Liu Ergou acted like an outsider and nodded coldly, "This ghost was driven back to reason by resentment and has turned into an evil spirit that only knows killing. If left alone, her range of activities will become wider and wider. If it is large, the surrounding residents will also be implicated.”

Gu Xifeng pondered: "Is the Taoist priest sure of awakening her reason?"

Liu Ergou didn't dare to say anything. He glanced at Gu Qingyin quietly, and when he saw her nodding gently, he pretended to be profound and said: "It's a bit difficult. If you try your best, you'll be 80% sure."

Gu Xifeng decided in his heart, "Taoist Master, I want to change the content of the commission. I don't need to catch her, I just need to awaken her reason."

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

When she wanted to catch the ghost before, she wanted to seal it and bring him back to his usual place to worship him every day to eliminate her resentment. But now she can't leave, and she may have to place an altar in the villa in the future.

"Twenty million." Liu Ergou made the offer calmly, but his heart was pounding.

Gu Qingyin really dares to ask for it. He has never offered such a high price in all these years! That's outrageous!

"Okay." Gu Xifeng agreed.

Liu Ergou was shocked. After all, the world was so crazy that he couldn't understand it.

Gu Qingyin squinted her eyes, tut, the report was too little.

When ten minutes were up, Gu Qingyin followed Liu Ergou towards the villa.

Gu Xifeng then looked at Gu Qingyin, "Is she also a Celestial Master?"

"Yeah." Liu Ergou coughed lightly and said, "My friend's apprentice, help me."

Gu Qingyin smiled and nodded.

This was the identity the two of them had agreed upon when they arrived.

Gu Qingyin is young and beautiful, and does not fit the image of a heavenly master in the eyes of the public, so she fabricated an identity for the sake of convenience. Originally, Gu Qingyin wanted to pretend to be Liu Ergou's apprentice, but she was sternly rejected.

The reason is very good. Liu Ergou was afraid of losing his life, so he made friends out of nothing.

Gu Xifeng didn't ask any more questions, and kept silently following the two of them, his head lowered not knowing what he was thinking.

Until she stood at the door of the villa, Gu Qingyin had to remind: "Mr. Gu, you can't go in."

"Why?" Gu Xifeng frowned, "I could just watch before."

Gu Qingyin smiled, "She was just an ordinary ghost before, but now she is an earth-bound spirit that has turned into a ghost. Is this the same? We are commissioned to restore the sanity of the ghost. If we also add the task of protecting the client... ”

Gu Qingyin smiled even happier, "That's another price."
