Chapter 5: Zhang Fan's bitter story
Zhang Fan smiled slightly, pulled Cao Xiaoyang aside and said, "Boy, you should never think about being majestic in front of Lao Tzu." I know you can't take out 200,000, in fact, you can choose not to pay back, but you have to find a way to get your horse to follow me. ”
Cao Xiaoyang pushed Zhang Fan's arm on his shoulder away.
"Two hundred thousand, for you in three days!"
Cao Xiaoyang's total savings now do not exceed 20,000, but he is really unwilling to give in to Zhang Fan, not to mention that Zhang Fan has set an impossible condition.
In desperation, he had no choice but to find Sister Qian for help, hoping that they could temporarily use the money in the yang world to pay the rent.
Sister Qian smiled and said to him: "If I can really use the money of the yang world to pay the rent, I really can't ask for it, you may not know now, the rent we give you now is much higher than the money of the yang world." ”
Cao Xiaoyang thought to himself, what is the value of the underworld coin, I still have a lot of them in my commissary, so if I can really spend it as money in the yang world, I will already be a millionaire.
So he smiled and said to Sister Qian: "According to what you say, then I will suffer a loss, wait until I take 200,000 yuan from the commissary to you, and you will exchange it for the money of the yang world." ”
Sister Qian smiled: "You're just a pile of waste paper." ”
"Didn't you just say that it was worth more than the money in the yang world, why is it now a pile of waste paper?"
"The ones in the commissary are nothing more than the rudiments of the dark coins you made in the yang world, and what really gives them value is human feelings. After a person dies, in order to express their condolences to him, the paper money burned by his relatives can have its true value. ”
"Then how about I just burn it for you?"
"No, if you just burn paper money, and the paper money is not endowed with emotion, it is useless. Moreover, there is an upper limit to the amount of paper money that each ghost can receive over a period of time, not as much as his relatives can get for him. ”
"Is the rent you gave me worth it?"
"Of course. ”
Cao Xiaoyang breathed a sigh of relief.
"Then I'll use that money to exchange it with you. ”
Who knew that Sister Qian still shook her head.
"I really want to help you, but I don't have any money from your yang world. ”
Cao Xiaoyang immediately lowered his head, saying so much turned out to be just a waste of words.
"I don't have any money, but I know a ghost who does, and he's definitely a rich man. ”
"Who is it?"
"Bai Xiaoyan. ”
"You said the kid who likes to play cos?"
"He's not cosplaying, he's what he is. ”
"Don't tell me he's really an ancient, do you?"
"That's right, he's been living in this spiritual tower for six hundred years, and since he likes life in the human world, he often goes outside to play, so he has to find a way to earn some money in your world. ”
"He's been here for six hundred years, how do you know, ......?"
"That's right, I've been here for eight hundred years, and I've lived here since the beginning of the building. ”
Damn, big guy, I can't afford to mess with it!
After that, Cao Xiaoyang found Bai Xiaoyan and asked him to pay the rent for eight years in advance, and finally made up enough for the 200,000 yuan.
After getting the money, Cao Xiaoyang immediately made an appointment with Zhang Fan, planning to pay him the money.
They made an appointment to meet at a bar, and Zhang Fan was a little surprised to see that Cao Xiaoyang had really scraped together enough 200,000 yuan in such a short period of time.
Zhang Fan smiled and said to Cao Xiaoyang: "It's not just for a woman, why bother? You don't think about it carefully, these 200,000 are enough for you to play with many women." ”
After this incident, Cao Xiaoyang completely saw Zhang Fan's personality, and the little remaining classmate feelings were completely washed away.
"The money is ready, I'll go!"
Zhang Fan snorted coldly and nodded.
"Okay, you kid has a kind. ”
With that, he turned and left the hotel first.
At this time, Cao Xiaoyang discovered something unusual, there was actually a woman hanging behind Cao Xiaoyang.
The woman was dressed in a white dress, with long hair draped, and her fair skin tinged with a dark green color.
The reason why she is said to be hanging is because she just grabbed her two hands on Zhang Fan's shoulders, but her feet did not touch the ground, but were suspended at a height of about twenty centimeters above the ground.
Cao Xiaoyang reacted suddenly, isn't this a female ghost? But it seems that Zhang Fan and the others around him didn't seem to notice it, Cao Xiaoyang thought, could it be that he actually has the ability to see ghosts after becoming the charter man of the Linglou?
Because under normal circumstances, if the ghost does not appear actively, ordinary people will not be able to see it.
When he walked out of the hotel, Zhang Fan patted his shoulder a little uncomfortably, although he couldn't see the female ghost on his back, he could feel her weight, and it was naturally uncomfortable for such a big female ghost to hang on his shoulder.
Cao Xiaoyang followed Zhang Fan out of the bar.
"Wait. ”
Zhang Fan turned around and said, "What, have you figured it out?" It's still the same sentence before, as long as you can let your girlfriend follow me, you can take back the 200,000 yuan. ”
Cao Xiaoyang shook his head and said, "No, I want to ask you a question." ”
Zhang Fan frowned. "What?"
"Have you felt any discomfort lately?"
Zhang Fan glared at Cao Xiaoyang, then stepped forward and grabbed Cao Xiaoyang's collar.
"Cao Nima's dare to curse me!"
Zhang Fan grabbed Cao Xiaoyang's collar, and the female ghost behind him directly took a look at Cao Xiaoyang, and the female ghost's face was only ten centimeters away from him.
Cao Xiaoyang was so frightened that his body trembled a little, and Zhang Fan laughed twice, thinking that Cao Xiaoyang was afraid of him.
"Why, that's cowardice. ”
Cao Xiaoyang cheered up, and then pushed Zhang Fan away, if it was really a one-on-one fight, Zhang Fan was definitely not Cao Xiaoyang's opponent.
Because he is used to eating, drinking, prostituting, gambling and indulging, his body has long been tossed, and at this time, I don't know how long he has been entangled by the female ghost, and his body has become weaker, and his face is even a little pale.
So Cao Xiaoyang's push directly pushed him to the ground.
Zhang Fancheng was arrogant and arrogant and suffered this kind of loss, staggered up from the ground and was about to fight with Cao Xiaoyang, but he was stopped by Cao Xiaoyang's words at this time.
"Zhang Fan, have you been in trouble with something unclean recently?"
When the words "unclean things" were spoken, the female ghost behind Zhang Fan suddenly stared at Cao Xiaoyang with straight eyes, Cao Xiaoyang didn't dare to look at her, and deliberately moved his gaze away.
"You...... What did you just say?"
Zhang Fan stood there stunned, with a strange expression on his face. It was clear that he had sensed that he was messing with something unclean before this, and he must have spent a lot of money on it, but he had not succeeded in driving the female ghost away.
The female ghost's eyes were really a little terrifying, and Cao Xiaoyang noticed that her eyes were really different from the tenants in the spirit building, because there was a murderous aura in her eyes.
Cao Xiaoyang's second uncle once told him that the ghosts in the spiritual tower are all good ghosts who can enter the reincarnation of the underworld normally, and they will not hurt people, and after this period of time with them, Cao Xiaoyang has gradually adapted to the ghosts.
For example, when he was with Tang Wenwen, he could really treat her as an ordinary girl next door.
But the one on Zhang Fan's body is different, Cao Xiaoyang doesn't know that she is a lonely ghost from there, and he doesn't know what grievances there are between her and Zhang Fan, if he rashly provokes, he will inevitably get into big trouble.
And now that the relationship between himself and Zhang Fan has been completely broken, he can't be bored with himself.
So Cao Xiaoyang turned around and pretended that he couldn't see the female ghost at all, pretending that what he just said was nonsense.
"Oh, nothing ......"
After that, he flagged down a taxi and left in a hurry.
After Cao Xiaoyang left, Zhang Fan stood at the door of the bar alone in a daze, with a very frightened expression on his face.
Since Tang Wenwen has completed the task of pretending to be his girlfriend given to him by Cao Xiaoyang, Cao Xiaoyang must also start fulfilling his promise and start helping Tang Wenwen investigate the cause of her death.
After work the next day, Cao Xiaoyang and Tang Wenwen were about to go home, but at this time they saw Zhang Fan standing at the door of the restaurant.
Cao Xiaoyang thought that he wanted to come over to pester Tang Wenwen, so he asked her to go back first, and he dragged him here.
Cao Xiaoyang followed Zhang Fan to an alley behind the restaurant and said, "I advise you not to beat her again, otherwise you will ......."
Who knew that Cao Xiaoyang's words were not finished, Zhang Fan suddenly took out a black leather bag and handed it to Cao Xiaoyang, Cao Xiaoyang opened it and saw that it was full of stacks of 100 yuan bills.
"There are 200,000 yuan you gave me yesterday, and I put another 100,000 yuan in it myself, as long as you are willing to help me, all this money is yours. ”
Cao Xiaoyang felt a little puzzled. "Help?
"You can also see that my physical condition is not as good as day by day, in the past six months, I have been to many big hospitals and spent millions, but my body has not improved at all. ”
"I'm not a doctor, so I can't help you. ”
"But you said last night that I got into trouble with something unclean, and I think that's the real reason why I'm getting worse. ”
"Then you shouldn't look for me, you should go to some masters who exorcise evil spirits and get rid of evil spirits, and I won't catch ghosts. ”
Zhang Fan coughed a little uncomfortably twice, and said: "Why not, my father has spent money to help me hire no less than ten masters, but they are either charlatans, or they just say that they are not good enough, during this time I have used a lot of various elixirs or runes, but it still has no effect at all, I am really desperate now, if I don't want to find a way to get rid of that dirty thing, I am afraid that I will not even survive this year." ”
As he spoke, this usually arrogant person wiped his tears in front of Cao Xiaoyang, and Cao Xiaoyang didn't expect that there would be such a bitter thing under Zhang Fan's arrogant appearance.
