Chapter 225: Another Business

What's going on?"

Zhou Li caught a glimpse of Huai Xu's ears pricked up.

One person and one demon are excited about the arrival of new business, and they haven't opened for a long time. Although this line of profiteering, the money earned from the last order is enough for them to spend for several years, but there is no continuous source of business, Zhou Li always feels unreliable.

Huai Xu is even more unsteady.

According to Huai Xu's speculation, as there are more and more Heavenly Masters in the future, on the one hand, the competition will become bigger, and on the other hand, the industry will lose its mystery, and it will be difficult for ordinary demon-related businesses to be able to raise prices.

At least nowhere near as high as the current price.

There was silence on the other end of the phone, and then Mr. Jiang said: "Since November last year, there have been a lot of insects in my house, almost all the local insects can be found in my house, and some are swarms, such as ants." At first, I didn't care, but I just started asking someone to find a way to get rid of them and investigate the reasons behind them. But strange things happened, I killed them batch after batch, but they never seemed to be clean, and they kept coming to my house. ”

"Have you ruled out any other possibility?"

"I've tried almost everything, and they're like they're being manipulated...... Mr. Jiang's voice was a little calm in his urgency, "They follow wherever I go, I change houses, and they follow, and the original house becomes better almost immediately." ”

In that case, it's almost confirmed. Zhou Li nodded, "Don't mind, it's true that among the customers we have met, there are many people who have encountered troubles that have nothing to do with ghosts at all." ”

"Understood. ”

Mr. Jiang nodded: "They didn't hurt me much, they just scared my family a lot, and now there is no way, I can only live in one house and they live in one house...... Do you see you taking this business? Money is not an issue!"

Zhou Li aimed at Huaixu again.

Huai Xu looked at him strangely: "Why don't you pick up?

"Pick it up!"

Zhou Li was categorical and immediately added: "Declare in advance that you only need to be responsible for the accommodation problem in the early stage, our process is that we will solve the problem for you first, solve it, and after a week, you confirm that there is nothing to do and then pay us, and you will not charge a penny if you can't solve it." ”

Having said that, experience has taught him that most people nowadays have a strong sense of awe for them, even if they can't solve it, or they are simply a group of charlatans, as long as they are not seen through, they will still receive a red envelope.

It's just that maybe the red envelope isn't that big.

It's also worth making blood.

It's all about earning anyway, so why not?

Mr. Jiang was a little surprised that Zhou Li's non-mainstream code of conduct in the industry was a non-mainstream one, and he immediately became more confident: "No wonder Mr. Liu respects Master Xiao Zhou so much, in this case, when will it be convenient for Master Xiao Zhou to come over?"

"Now. ”

"Now?"

"During the pandemic, there was not much business. ”

"Understood. ”

"You report the address. ”

"Are you coming by yourself? Do you need me to drive you up?"

"No, it's a waste of time. ”

"Okay, I've wronged you, and the address will be sent to your mobile phone. ”

"Hmm. ”

Zhou Li put down his phone.

Huai Xu immediately approached him: "How much money does he give?"

Zhou Li glanced at him: "I didn't say it." ”

The phone ding-dong.

Mr. Jiang's address is not in Yancheng, in a county-level city that originally belonged to Yancheng but was assigned to Jinguan two years ago, and it takes about an hour's drive for Zhou Li to check it. Brother Nan drove her father's car back to her hometown, but left the car to him.

So he turned his head and looked at the bed.

It's morning, and it's time to rest after a night of parkour, and I'm sleeping soundly with my head in my front paws.

Zhou Li woke her up without hesitation, and when he saw her open her eyes, she made a slight humming sound, and looked at herself in a daze, and he had a sense of revenge: "We are going out, do you want to go out?" ”

"Where are you going?"

"Go earn money. ”

"If you earn money, will you buy boiled water cabbage for Dango-sama?"

"There is no boiling water cabbage to sell recently. ”

"Dango-sama is so sleepy~~"

"Okay. ”

More than an hour later.

Zhou Li parked his car outside a riverside villa, there was a surface parking space, and a middle-aged man was waiting for him at the door.

Huai Xu sniffed: "It does smell like a monster, and the preliminary judgment should be that it should be a monster that is not weak, well, the judgment made by relying on experience is for reference only." ”

"Hmm. ”

Zhou Li got out of the car and looked at the middle-aged man: "Mr. Jiang?"

"Hello, Master Xiao Zhou. ”

The two shook hands.

Zhou left the door and repeated Huaixu's words: "You do have the smell of monsters here, the preliminary judgment should be a little tricky, you should be able to understand from Mr. Liu that I am not an alarmist." ”

"Do your best, money isn't an issue anyway, but if it's dangerous...... Again, your safety comes first. ”

"I'm just going to explain it first, let's go and see first. ”

"Good. ”

As soon as Zhou Li walked to the door, he saw ants with several black lines on the ground, not the same race. As far as he could tell, there were at least three different races of ants in front of him.

A common one.

One that grows very small.

One is large in size and has a shiny black carapace.

In addition, there were many cobwebs on the trees next to him, and he saw several insects that he did not recognize.

Mr. Jiang pushed the room open and motioned for Zhou Li to go in.

The ground is really covered with all kinds of insects, and the walls are too, all kinds of them, and the whole house has almost become a paradise for insects, even Zhou Li, a person who does not have a phobia of density, feels a little numb in his scalp.

In order to appear professional, he kept his appearance calm.

"My neighbors were scared away. Mr. Jiang said.

"But as soon as I left, they followed, and wherever I went, these bugs would appear again. ”

"Have you done anything special recently?" Zhou Li saw that Huai Xu began to explore around the room, so he asked Mr. Jiang, "For example, have you been to some remote places, encountered any uncommon things, and encountered any strange things?"

"None of them. Mr. Jiang paused as he spoke, "The people I invited before also asked me similar questions, but they really didn't, my previous life was basically a company and a home." ”

"Oh~~"

Zhou Li nodded.

He noticed that when he walked into the room, the insects did not pounce on him, but avoided him.

Looking at Mr. Jiang again, he is the same as himself.

Zhou Li pursed his lips and said, "They really don't mean to hurt you, so it's easy to do, at least it proves that the monster who controls these insects is not an uncommunicable monster." ”

There was a pause: "So what does he want to do?"

"I don't know. "They can't speak, and they don't know how to line up or whatever." ”

"Oh. ”

"The bugs are starting to move. "It seems that he has discovered us." ”

"The bugs are starting to move. Zhou Li looked around very calmly, "The other party should find out that I am coming, and I will communicate with him." ”

"Really?"

Mr. Jiang also looked around, although in his eyes these insects were no different from just now, just crawling around, but Zhou Li's calm and gentle tone still gave him a lot of credibility.

Suddenly, a spider hung down from mid-air and stopped between Zhou Li and Mr. Jiang.

Both were frightened.

It's just that Mr. Jiang was taken aback, but Zhou Li kept his composure and looked at the spider, and kept repeating the word professional in his heart.

"Human Heavenly Master?"

The spider made a sound, an old female voice, with a strange accent, but it was still intelligible.

Zhou Li turned to Mr. Jiang: "Please stay away." ”

"Okay!"

Mr. Jiang immediately walked out and closed the door very thoughtfully. However, there is a floor-to-ceiling window in his house, which is used to see the river view, he has no intention of peeping, only subconsciously glanced at it, and saw the curtain brushed closed-

At that time, Master Xiao Zhou was standing in the middle of the room!

Mr. Jiang silently walked to the river and lit a cigarette.

"Sure enough, it's the Human Celestial Master, I've been waiting for you for a long time, is the Earth Division revived now?" the spider asked aloud.

"It has just recovered, and most of the Yuguo should have a land division at present. Zhou Li thought about it for a while, and then thought clearly, "It seems that you need some help, so why don't you go directly to the Disi?"

"I can't find it. ”

"I can put you in touch. ”

"I also need your help, Your Excellency. The spider hung motionless in mid-air, "My name is Xinghui, I have no intention of harming people, my reputation among the demons should be quite big, and there are also records in the Diji, you can check it." I'm not a bad-tempered youkai, otherwise this person would have been quietly killed by me. ”

"Lord Xinghui. Zhou Li nodded, "My name is Zhou Li, what help do you need?" I can try my best to help you." ”

"Xinghui, I seem to have heard of ......" Huaixu leaned closer to look at the spider, "Do you look like this? Shouldn't you? Hey, this flowery belly is pretty good, do you know how to spit silk?"

"It's not my body, I'm just attached my mind to it, it's just a normal spider. Xinghui explained.

"And do you know how to spin silk?"

"It's obvious. Star swayed for a moment, and she was now hanging from a spider silk.

"Then have you heard of me? My name is Huaixu, and I am a great demon king, and I am also very famous among demons. Huai Xu asked again.

“......”

"Looks like you can't ......"

Huai Xu has the confidence to say this, you see, he is a student of Ming Gong, the demon king knows him, the group knows him, and now the two big men of the demon country, Hongran and Lin Zhong, know him, but this old monster doesn't know him, so how old is she?

"Get down to business. Zhou Li interrupted their small talk, "Where's your body?"

"It's sealed. ”

"Huh?"

"The ancestors of this human race are a family of Celestial Masters who have been passed down from generation to generation, and at the end of the last era, we had some conflicts, so they took advantage of my weak ability to seal me away, trying to erase my consciousness and serve their descendants. They hoped that my presence would enable their descendants to rise quickly in a new era, but they did not succeed. ”

"I see, it's hateful. Zhou Li took care of her emotions, "So do you know where your body is?"

"In their ancestral tombs. Xinghui paused and added, "The bottom of their ancestral tomb is very large, and there are mechanisms, but these mechanisms only have an effect on youkai, and most of the things set up by human celestial masters are like this. ”

"No wonder. ”

"Yes, I wouldn't dare risk letting the youkai break in, just in case. Xinghui said, "I hope you can help me get out of trouble, I have nothing to repay you for the time being, but I know a lot of demons among demons, I owe you a favor, I will definitely help you if you need it in the future, believe me." ”

"Don't be so ......polite"

Zhou Li wanted to say that the remuneration for this matter would be paid by Mr. Jiang, but in the end, he suddenly thought of something, and he immediately swallowed the unfinished words-

"You know a ...... Adults with the ability to swap people's senses? ”

"There is more than one such youkai. Xinghui said, "I know that there is a monster with strong abilities, her name is Ji Bai, and she is my friend. ”

"Then can I implore you to help me find Master Ji Bai and introduce me to him after I get out of trouble?"

"Do you have something to ask her for?"

"Yes. ”

"She'll promise you. ”

"Thank you!"

"I should thank Your Excellency for ......"

After a few polite words, Xinghui left.

Zhou Li sat down on the sofa and first contacted the Diji here - no matter what Xinghui said, he had to confirm it first.

Of course, contacting the ground division is not a phone call.,But there is a special way to notify.,It's a joint development of humans and monsters.,It's a relatively simple use of spiritual power.,The ground division will come over if you sense it.。

Before he arrived, he turned his head to look around.

The insects in the room had begun to disperse, and he couldn't help but smile - he hadn't started his work yet.
