Chapter 126: Intentional Frame-up
Folk Village, Ghost Stage.
The ground is full of high-grade sandalwood, and a group of geists are "sucking", and the scene is terrifying and lively.
Xu Lang and Ruan Lingyu were standing on the grass not far from the stage and talking.
"Senior, did you come to me this time because of Liu Cuicui's business?"
Xu Lang also guessed, Ruan Lingyu took the initiative to find him after Liu Cuicui's incident, so it means that what she wants to say to him is most likely related to Liu Cuicui.
"As the saying goes, people and ghosts have different paths, I shouldn't have asked about human affairs, but Liu Cuicui, like me, is a person who loves opera, if I don't say it, I will definitely feel uneasy in the future." Ruan Lingyu said.
Xu Lang has long been accustomed to the other party's words, and he doesn't mind, and said, "Senior, please speak." ”
"If my guess is right, Liu Cuicui was in a coma, I'm afraid it was because someone was in the way." Ruan Lingyu touched the water sleeve and said slowly, "With my current ability, I can only know this, and the rest is unknown." ”
"Someone is getting in the way? Sure enough, the wealthy family is as deep as the sea. Xu Lang nodded thoughtfully, "Thank you seniors." ”
……
Donghai City, a late-night snack stall near Lijing Hospital.
"I said, Brother Xu, do you have anything particularly important to look for me?" When Zhang Xiaojie arrived, he saw Xu Lang eating roasted eggplant.
"Isn't this nonsense? Everyone has been busy all night, and if there is nothing important, I will come to you from Paradise Didi? Xu Lang asked Zhang Xiaojie to sit down first, "How is grandma doing now?" ”
"Very good, the doctor said, observe for a while, if the situation is stable, you can carry out rehabilitation training. You've done our family a great favor this time! It is the great benefactor of our Zhang family! Zhang Xiaojie thanked solemnly.
"It's my grandmother's own good fortune, I have grandpa who loves her so much, if it weren't for grandpa's insistence on going to the play, my stage wouldn't be able to play an effect." Xu Lang said.
"Tut-tut, if you want me to say, you are just humble......"
Zhang Xiaojie suddenly remembered something as he spoke, and said: "By the way, I ordered some high-end incense online, anyway, I don't understand this, I bought what was expensive, and after the goods arrived, I personally went to burn incense to thank you!" ”
When he said this, his expression was still a little complicated, and he was grateful but also a little afraid, after all, he would have to face a ghost at that time.
"You have a heart, and it proves that my trip is worth it." Xu Lang smiled and said seriously, "Next, what I want to tell you may affect your entire Zhang family, you have to be mentally prepared." ”
Zhang Xiaojie was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "I was ready for a long time, isn't it just about my sister?" Don't worry, although my mother doesn't agree, my grandparents have a very good impression of you, and even if you need family members to vote, you won't be able to lose. ”
"You ...... guy"
Xu Lang said solemnly, "To be serious, I talked to Ruan Lingyu, that is, the ghost actor who sang opera, and she told me that your grandmother turned into a vegetative person, but someone actually did something behind her back. ”
The air froze instantly.
After a long time, Zhang Xiaojie looked at Xu Lang with a solemn face: "You mean, someone deliberately harmed my grandmother?" ”
Xu Lang nodded: "Judging from the current situation, this is the case, but I don't know who it is and what the means are." ”
Zhang Xiaojie was silent for a while, and said, "Brother Xu, I'll take you somewhere." ”
……
In the apartment, less than ten minutes away from the food stall, Xu Lang met Zhang Laoyezi and Zhang Jianguo in pajamas.
He was stunned, Zhang Jianguo can be regarded as a rich man in the East China Sea, how can he live in such a small apartment? Normal shouldn't be
Should it be a luxury villa?
"Isn't that a little surprised?"
After a few people sat down in the living room, Zhang Jianguo saw Xu Lang's expression and said with a smile, "Since my wife was in the hospital, I bought this place, and I usually live here, and it is convenient to go to the hospital." ”
Xu Lang was a little moved when he heard this, there are many infatuated people in the world, but there are not many people who are both rich and infatuated.
"Grandpa, I brought Xu Lang over because I have something important to tell you." Zhang Xiaojie said.
Xu Lang was stunned for a moment, looking at Zhang Xiaojie, was he going to tell Zhang Jianguo what he had just done?
Zhang Xiaojie patted Xu Lang on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I have already told my grandfather about the ghost stage and the ghost show." ”
Xu Lang looked at Zhang Jianguo in surprise: "Grandpa Zhang, you ...... Acceptable? ”
"If it's something that exists, why can't it be accepted? In fact...... Because of the matter of Raider, I talked to Deputy Director Li. He also admitted to me that it was you who saved me in Yin/Gate Village......"
"Grandpa, what Yin/Gate Village? What does it have to do with my sister? Zhang Xiaojie listened on the side, and the whole person was stunned.
"I'll tell you about this later, let's talk about business first." Zhang Jianguo said, "Why did you come to me so late?" ”
"Here's the thing......"
Xu Lang briefly said about the incident, and by the time he finished speaking, he could already clearly feel the anger on Zhang Jianguo's face.
The more Zhang Xiaojie listened, the more angry he became, and shouted: "Grandpa, who did it, we must check ......"
"Okay, I know about it." Zhang Jianguo interrupted Zhang Xiaojie's words, "Xu Lang, thank you very much for your help, and I hope you will keep it secret for the time being, and don't say anything to Liying." ”
"I understand." Xu Lang has no reason to object, if this matter continues to go deeper, it will definitely involve the internal problems of the Zhang family, he is an outsider, and it is not suitable to mix too much.
……
"Xu Lang? Why are you here? ”
"Uh...... This ......"
"Sister, I brought Xu Lang here, grandpa wants to see him, as for why you want to see him, you have to ask grandpa."
Sometimes, things are so strange, the three of them all said okay, don't tell Zhang Liying about this, but she just happened to be blocked under the apartment.
"Actually, I didn't talk about anything, I just asked about my business with you." Xu Lang was also taken aback, because his heart was weak, and his back was full of sweat.
Zhang Xiaojie was also obedient, and he had an idea, and said: "Sister, don't go up, when we come out, grandpa is already ready to rest, don't bother him, the old man has been tired enough recently." Why don't the three of us go get something to eat? ”
"yes, eat something." Xu Lang smirked.
Zhang Liying intuitively felt that there must be something wrong with these two men, but she hadn't guessed what it was.
Could it be that grandpa thought Xu Lang was her boyfriend and looked for him, right?
Thinking of this, Zhang Liying's heart beat faster, and she didn't dare to look at Xu Lang.
"What time is it to eat, I'm going back to rest. Xiaojie, don't drag Xu Lang to eat for too long, people still have a paradise to take care of, not like you...... I'm leaving! ”
After she finished speaking, she left in a hurry, leaving Xu Lang and Zhang Xiaojie looking at each other.
……
Naturally, the two brothers did not eat, because they were both full.
But at this moment, Zhang Xiaojie was in a state of turmoil, and he really wanted to talk to someone, so he took Xu Lang to the villa where he usually lived for one night.
Early the next morning, Xu Lang got up and cleaned up, and then went to Ghost Street under the viaduct.
He thought that he had already come to the city, so he went to Ghost Street to try his luck and see if he could enter the ghost market, but he didn't expect that he shouted "Uncle Ghost" twice in front of the stone statue, and the entrance appeared.
"Boss Xu came here during the day, why did he have to do it?"
As soon as Xu Lang entered, he saw Uncle Ghost's cold expression, but he didn't mind, after all, he was not Mrs. Ghost's godson, so how could he be treated well.
"Uncle Ghost, I'm here to see the Wish Wall, don't you have a lot of wishes that you can't fulfill? I can help! ”
"I'll take you." After Uncle Ghost finished speaking, he led the way in front.
This reaction made Xu Lang stunned: "Wouldn't it be inappropriate for us to go directly to the Wish Building like this?" Anyway, you have to talk to your wife, right? ”
"Madame is in retreat and doesn't have time to see you, but she told me yesterday that as long as you come to see the Wish Wall, I can give you appropriate help." Uncle Ghost explained.
Xu Lang suddenly realized, he didn't expect the ghost lady to think about it so thoroughly.
It didn't take long for a person and a ghost to arrive at the Wish Building.
"Uncle Ghost, I wonder if there are any portable entrances in your ghost market? Do I buy one? I won't need to run so far to see you in the future. Xu Lang had actually been thinking about the entrance and exit of Qin Xiaolu's house all the time, if he could also have one, then it would be much more convenient to do things in the future.
"This kind of thing, it's useless to tell me, you have to go to Madame in person." Uncle Ghost looked at Xu Lang with some dissatisfaction, then pointed to the stairs and said, "If it's okay, don't go up." ”
After saying that, he disappeared.
People, sometimes it's just that weird. If you don't mention it, he's not ready to go.
But if you mention it, and you don't let people go, this person will be itching. Xu Lang is in such a state at this moment. He didn't plan to go up to the second floor, he just wanted to take a look at the wish wall to see if there was any suitable wish that he could find a few more temporary workers like Chubby. But now that Uncle Ghost said this, he was a little itchy.
"What Uncle Ghost just said is that don't go up if there's nothing to do, so what if I think something is wrong? If you have something, you can go up, right? ”
"Last time, how did the ghost lady say that she was not capable enough to go up? Anyway, if you can't go up, it's nothing, right? ”
"I'm just looking."
Xu Lang wandered at the top of the stairs for a while, and his heart turned a thousand times.
And his footsteps were getting closer and closer to the second floor.
He's coming up!
Doesn't it mean that you can't get up if you don't have enough ability? Xu Lang was puzzled and looked at the environment on the second floor. The next moment, the expression on his face changed from anticipation to disappointment.
It's no different from the first floor, except that there is a wall of wishes on one side and a shelf for filing on the other.
But soon, he discovered the difference between the two, and the registration form on the wish wall on the second floor had one more column than the one on the first floor: reward.
"It turns out that the first floor is pure charity, and the second floor is rewarding." Xu Lang said to himself, "A ghost market is a ghost market, and you can't escape the essence of a businessman." ”
His curiosity was satisfied, and Xu Lang went downstairs.
Although the wishes on the second floor are rewarded, he prefers to spend time on the first floor. Because he always believes in a word, how much you give, how much you return. And vice versa, what has a high return often comes at a high price. The system has taught him this countless times.
So he would rather find some good people and good deeds to do on the first floor than challenge the paid second floor.
"What did you choose?" Uncle Ghost didn't know when he came in, and he was standing in front of the Wish Wall looking at him at this time.
