Chapter 5: The Protector Spider
The swarm of customers almost crowded Yang Xiaoling's store, but Yang Xiaoling counted the tickets in her hand and looked at the shelves that were about to be empty, it was sour!
But there is always a trace of doubt in my heart, all this is too evil, and these things have been a little unclear recently!
The next few days are such a good business, Zhang Li can attract a large number of tourists as long as she sits there and plays with happiness, and she can buy something more or less, so busy that Yang Xiaoling has no time to buy goods, so she can only call the supplier to deliver the goods to your door.
The goods delivered to the door can be imagined and not all of them are in line with Yang Xiaoling's wishes, but they will also be quickly bought by the buyer and turned into banknotes in their hands, so that Yang Xiaoling doesn't even have time to doubt, and counts the money all day long!
The Meteorological Observatory said that there was a torrential rain in the past two days, as expected, the rain was three days, and there was no intention to stop at all, the popularity of the commercial street gradually faded, due to the slight water accumulation on the road, many shops on the street simply closed, and only a few shops were still insisting.
The ancient street in the rain is a bit depressed, Yang Xiaoling has nothing to do at home, and the spider likes to run around at home, and always spits some silk everywhere, so that Yang Xiaoling, who loves cleanliness, can't stand it, it is better to be more honest in the store, so Yang Xiaoling's store still insists on opening.
Because there were no customers, Yang Xiaoling was idle and chatted with Zhang Li, and the spider happily lay on Zhang Li's shoulder to talk to them after walking around the corners.
Suddenly, Xiao Xingxing rolled off Zhang Li's shoulder in a panic, fortunately a thread was hung and did not fall directly to the ground, only to see it quickly pull back to its original place like a lift, but it was a bit of a six-god owner, slightly embarrassed.
Zhang Li was chatting with Yang Xiaoling about finding her ex-boyfriend, so she didn't care about the change in happiness, but Yang Xiaoling sat opposite her and saw it clearly, and she couldn't help but feel a little worried, why is this guy a little abnormal today!
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door overshadowing the sound of the rain hitting the bluestone slab, the footsteps seemed to be a little urgent, Yang Xiaoling had already poked her head out to see what kind of person would hang out at such a time, Zhang Li obviously also had curiosity to stop her topic.
Before they could react, a man had already entered.
Oh, isn't this the guest who has stored things in the store before, Yang Xiaoling recognized the middle-aged man at once, and immediately got up and greeted with a smile: "Hello, what do you need this time?"
The man was originally a little frowning, but now he was probably infected by Yang Xiaoling's smile, so he forced out a smile, which was weird.
The man hung the umbrella outside the door, half of his body was already wet, he looked at Yang Xiaoling as if he saw a glimmer of light, and said happily: "So many stores are closed today, I thought you weren't open, it's great to see you!"
Before Yang Xiaoling could answer, the man continued, "I stored something here last time, do you remember that bronze statue?" ”
Yang Xiaoling secretly thought that the black Buddha statue was actually made of copper, and hurriedly said that she remembered.
The man continued, "I'm here to find something from you. Because this bronze statue was invited by my client, but after I went there, I repeatedly had nightmares saying that the Dharma Protector Spider was gone, and my client was tormented by the fact that he was now miserable, and his business plummeted......"
The man swallowed his saliva and continued: "I came to find the Divine Spider this time, if I can't find the Divine Spider, I have to return the money I received, maybe they will kill me!"
Yang Xiaoling had already subconsciously looked at Zhang Li's shoulder when she heard half of it, Zhang Li had already turned her head to find happiness, but the little guy who was happy didn't know where to go, wasn't he still climbing up and down just now!
Yang Xiaoling felt a little big, and didn't know what to say, Zhang Li didn't find happiness all of a sudden, and suddenly said to the man: "What does your spider look like?
The man said that there was no picture, and in fact he had not seen it, but this time he knew that the bronze statue was hollow and there was a spider hidden inside.
Zhang Li silently breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You haven't seen a spider, so how can you be sure that the spider is with the bronze statue?"
The man seemed to feel that he was being suspected, and he wanted to clarify himself, and his voice was a little fast: "The mage said that the body protector spider was originally hidden in the bronze statue and was in a sleeping state, and as soon as the box was opened, the spider would come out to move after the air circulation woke up, and after thinking about it, he only opened the box in the store that time, and the box was never opened anywhere else, so he must have escaped from the store." ”
Zhang Li asked the man again: "Is it useful for the divine spider to find it?"
The man replied: "I don't know the specifics, but when listening to the mage's sacrifice, the divine spider is used, as if it is something to refine." ”
What, refining!
Sounding terrible, Yang Xiaoling couldn't help but gasp.
Yang Xiaoling looked at Zhang Li, and didn't know how to answer this uninvited guest for a while, but she didn't expect Zhang Li to actually speak: "Sister Xiaoling, it won't be that little black spider, the little spider I mentioned to you when I was cleaning that day." ”
Yang Xiaoling hummed blankly, unable to figure out what medicine was sold in Zhang Li's gourd, but these words attracted the attention of the man, and the man said with expectant eyes: "It may be yes, where is the spider now?"
Zhang Li said with a little loss: "I almost trampled the spider to death that day!"
The man was shocked when he heard this.
Zhang Li continued: "Fortunately, Bengong was soft-hearted, and later drove it into a garbage bag and threw it outside in the public garbage can, which can be regarded as a way to live!"
This Zhang Li was actually proud, and Yang Xiaoling felt a little drunk.
The man was made up and down by Zhang Li's call, and the feeling of sitting on the lift. But after all, there is still hope, better than no news at all.
So the man took his leave and said, "Then I'll ask you to clean up the garbage another day, maybe there is hope." ”
Watching the man's departing back disappear into the end of the street, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
Zhang Li looked for the spider like a nobody, Yang Xiaoling glared at Zhang Li and said, "What are you going to do?" This man will definitely come again, everyone on this street knows that you have a spider, and this man will definitely know in two days, and it will be up to you to see what you do!"
Zhang Li shouted Happy and said disapprehantly: "Then I can't tell if this spider is his or mine, Happy must have escaped knowing that he was coming to find him, so clever!"
As soon as the words fell, I saw the spider happily crawling out of a place where gift boxes were stacked in the corner of the counter, and quickly crawled onto Zhang Li's body, waving her little paws, making Zhang Li laugh and play happily.
Yang Xiaoling didn't know how to clean up this situation next, in case that man came to question how to answer, her mood suddenly fell to a low point.
In the afternoon, the weather gradually cleared up, Zhang Li told Yang Xiaoling that she wanted to go out, Yang Xiaoling responded casually, and didn't ask her where she went, anyway, she was annoyed to look at her, and I wished she would leave!
It rained for two more days, and on the third day it was finally sunny and the sun was shining brightly.
Zhang Li followed Yang Xiaoling to the store again, carrying a bag in her hand, and the bag was visually a box, Yang Xiaoling was a little upset, so her doubts flashed and she didn't ask Zhang Li.
When I arrived at the store, Yang Xiaoling was still doing the same business as usual, and Zhang Li had fun.
There were more tourists on the ancient commercial street, and before ten o'clock, Yang Xiaoling saw that the man was already asking the cleaner nearby.
Yang Xiaoling's heart tightened, and she made a look at Zhang Li.
