Zuo Hua angrily relayed the news we just said on the phone, hoping that the other party could help conduct a secret investigation and send the hardware store owner to court after finding evidence.

However, judging from the expression of hanging up the phone, it was obvious that he was rejected by the other party.

Zuo Hua was a little disappointed, spread his hands and said, "No problem, they don't want to meddle in this matter." ”

"An-la! Let's figure out our own way, there will always be a way to punish him. By the way, Li Xiaoyu stayed in the hardware store just to punish the boss, but with her cultivation, she couldn't make any waves. I comforted Zuo Hua and said the reason why Xiaoyu stayed in the world.

Zuo Hua pondered for a while, "So...... Does she want to do good? ”

Zhuang Yan and I nodded and looked at Zuo Hua, waiting for him to express his opinion on the matter.

"In that case, I can help her." Zuo Hua expressed his determination to abandon martial arts and follow literature.

"That's the best, it's better to let her follow you first, and we'll think about it together and get this done. When it's over, how about you find time to send her to the spirit realm? ”

"By the way, the boss's cat...... If he doesn't want it, I want to raise it. After I finished my suggestion, Zhuang Yan mentioned that she wanted the cat.

Zuo Hua was stunned and fell into deep thought.

"You didn't have a soul?" I asked him.

Zuo Hua nodded.

"Are you worried about becoming a ghost?"

"It's not that I haven't thought about this, in the past, most of them used to kill them when they went up, and I never thought about superfluous problems."

"On this point, I need to talk about my feelings. Containment of a soul, of course, I'm talking about temporary containment. When the matter is over, they are sent away according to the procedure, and they have also fulfilled their wishes, and they have done a good deed, so why not do it? Regarding the definition of ghost cultivation, my master said that only when both parties use each other to improve their own strength can it be regarded as ghost cultivation. If you bring a soul that can only appear in the spirit state, it won't help you improve your cultivation, and you won't help him speed up his cultivation progress, so it can't be regarded as ghost cultivation. ”

Zuo Hua listened carefully and asked again, "How many have you contained?" ”

"I haven't counted it carefully, there are always seven or eight."

"Will you be tempted? I've heard that there are quite a few Heavenly Masters planted on this. ”

This time, it was my turn to be silent. A few years ago, I was warned when I went to the management office that there were many Heavenly Masters who were eliminated because of the evil deeds of ghost cultivators. It is precisely because of the corresponding punishment that there are fewer and fewer ghost cultivators. I don't remember very well, the first time Yao was sent back to the world, I made up my mind to take her in for a long time. I won't be tempted by this supreme mana cultivation, maybe because I don't pursue any fame or fortune, but I really don't know what others think. You can't use my standards to demand that others do the same.

"What you said also makes sense, and this may be related to the different pursuits of individuals. The souls I've contained are nothing special. I think that as long as you are firm in your faith, you should not be easily tempted by the promises of your soul. ”

"What are your beliefs?" Zuo Hua asked me.

I pondered for a while, "There is enough money, there is no illness or disaster, and it will always be...... That's probably it. ”

To be honest, these are not pursued, if ordinary people have this kind of pursuit, they must be regarded as unproductive and unpursued. But I've been like this for decades, and I don't feel bad. Although sometimes greedy for a little money, it is also human nature.

"What about you?" I asked rhetorically.

"I want to leave my name in the Book of Heavenly Masters, not to mention that my name will be immortal, but also to let the world remember my name after a hundred years."

Zuo Hua's ideals are very ambitious, but after this hundred years, who knows how many years. Now he is nearly forty years old, and he looks like a young man of twenty-five or sixteen. However, his lofty ideals and ambitions won Zhuang Yan to applaud him gently, but my ideals won a disdainful look.

I stopped persuading Li Xiaoyu to talk to him for the time being, and touched a glass with him for his lofty ideals.

After eating, we made some comparisons with Xincun based on the environment near the hotel and the convenience of life, and this place won completely. Moreover, Zuo Hua has lived here for three years, and only in the rented urban village, he has received no less than ten commissions to exorcise evil spirits. He is already a well-known left-half immortal here. It is precisely because his appearance has not changed in three years that it is almost time for him to change places.

On the way home, Zhuang Yan asked me why I suddenly changed the topic and did not recommend that Zuo Hua contain Li Xiaoyu? I said what I thought.

Sometimes, the size of a person's desire for fame and fortune determines his ability to withstand temptation. The more radical you are, the easier it is to forget your righteousness and eventually forget yourself.

Zhuang Yan didn't say anything more, maybe she agreed with me, or maybe my point of view was incompatible with her.

Back in Xincun, I called out the ancestor, He Feng and Yao, and asked them to introduce Li Xiaoyu to each other. After Zhuang Yan knew the role of the jade pendant, she always wanted to find a suitable piece, but she couldn't find the one she liked. She found the red thread, and actually knitted a net-like thing by herself, wrapped the jade Ruyi found in the jade lock, and put it in the handbag she carried with her. Li Xiaoyu was hiding inside.

Li Xiaoyu suddenly saw a few seniors, and naturally he didn't dare to be weird anymore, so he only promised, for fear of angering his seniors. I only found an opportunity and whispered in my ear: "Are you a ghost cultivator?" ”

I was noncommittal, just asked her if I was like?

After the trivial matters were dealt with, he went to Zhuang Yan's room and discussed Li Xiaoyu's affairs while exercising. The Ancestor did not participate in the discussion, but once he had decided, he would not shirk letting him help. After He Feng and Yao listened to Zuo Hua's explanation, they were a little indignant and wanted to beat up the boss.

"Leave it to me, I'll beat him up tonight until he can't take care of himself." Yao clenched his fist with one hand and said angrily.

"I'll go with Yao, you can sleep in peace, don't worry about anything." He Feng followed and coaxed.

"Two sisters, how can we beat someone?" Li Xiaoyu is obviously not good enough, and he can't conjure up entities.

"You're still young, you don't understand a lot of things, you just have to look at it." Yao appeased Li Xiaoyu.

I shouted to stop the two indignant souls and let them practice in peace, this matter is not urgent. If it passes too early, the boss will find trouble with Zuo Hua, and the soul will not be driven away, causing a commotion. Reassure them to wait a few days.

"Human life is at stake, Childe!" Yao has a lot of thoughts, "In case he does evil again, as Zuo Gongzi said, once a fire is caused, the people there will suffer." ”

"Yes, I also feel that time is pressing, but in your state, it is difficult for me to let you do things with peace of mind. By the way, Ancestor, can you do me a favor? "I think of the First Ancestor, who is the oldest here, the highest in practice, and moody.

"What's in it for you?"

"Wow, you old conscienceless, with so many beautiful women, what more benefits do you want."

The whole world was quiet, except for Yao, no one thought that I would use this tone to speak to the ancestor like this.

Li Xiaoyu was even more exaggeratedly stunned, she saw the ancestor who was trembling, I dare to call him an old man without a conscience.

"The soul has no desire for a long time, beauty is just the preference of you ordinary people, how do you know that I like beauty?" The ancestor did not show weakness, replied, and then said: "Say it! What do you want the old man to help you? ”

"Go and help me keep an eye on the owner of the hardware store, he should be busy cleaning up the warehouse on the second floor these days, and he doesn't have time to mess around. Tomorrow night, tomorrow night we will send you over, you stay there for a few days, if you find him quietly doing evil again, scare him, it is better to scare him so much that he is. However, before he does evil, don't disturb him, in case he changes his ways, you say yes. "I've given the Ancestor a mission.

"That's fine, but I'm going...... Your so-called benefits of beautiful companionship, I will not be gone. Is there something to consider? ”

This old thing, is it enlightened, thinking about the benefits of everything, it seems that this ideological work has to be constantly studied in order to maintain long-term effectiveness.

"What do you want? A talented ancestor, are there any benefits in this world that you want but can't get? "A free tall hat was thrown over.

"You! It's good to be anything, but I love to tell the truth too much. I'm kidding you, I'll go by myself tomorrow, and I don't need you to send it. ”

The eternal law of thousands of wears, sycophants are not worn, and the 10,000-year-old demon has not been able to escape.

Get ready and get on with your workout. Zhuang Yan danced the sword seriously, took a short break, and continued to practice drawing talismans with ordinary paper and pen. It's a pity that I don't know where to get the meditation talisman I found in the city, otherwise I can learn the self-developed talisman and pirate a few copies for my own use.

As for the follow-up on Lu Zixuan's side, how do we collect evidence and how do we get the attention of the police, there is still no good way. Zhuang Yan didn't have any effective methods, so she could only be anxious, expecting the ancestor to teach him a lesson at the scene of his rebellion.

Yao has always been my news spokesperson in the spirit world. In the evening, she still introduced my relationship and origin with my soul friend to Li Xiaoyu. I believe that tomorrow morning, my image in Li Xiaoyu's mind will be even taller again.

Sure enough, the next day, Li Xiaoyu's adoring eyes followed me blindly. Seeing that I'm making breakfast, I want to help but can't intervene, so I can only talk on the sidelines.

"If Childe were us, he would be a chivalrous man."

"What's so good about a chivalrous person, if you don't have enough food and clothing, you can't get warm, and you can't get even. You don't want me to be a? Every day, I wander around looking for beautiful women...... Yes! I really yearn for the life of those sons. I couldn't help but sigh.

Zhuang Yan hurriedly came over, ate early and went to work, and it was time for me to be alone and idle.

Li Xiaoyu continued to chatter, and I continued to hate each other. It was almost over, I turned on the computer and looked at the QQ message. Lao Li didn't call me, he learned to send me a message on QQ, and the store opened seven days later, and the ceremony of adopting Xiao Wu was held by the way.

He was very powerful, and not long after he arrived in Xinxing, he made some business partners, and there were quite a few of them.

I made a note of the opening and banquet schedules, and I planned to choose a plaque or some painting, and as a shareholder of the company, I would do nothing, but it would always be good to say something. I sent the opening time to Zhuang Yan, saying that I was going to go to the flower and bird market to pick up a congratulatory gift, and asked her if she had any suggestions. Zhuang Yan didn't say a suggestion, let me see the plaque or painting I liked, and take a picture of her first to help me see the meaning.

"I'm going too!" Li Xiaoyu naturally didn't want to let go of the opportunity to go shopping in broad daylight.

I looked at He Feng and Yao, and felt that there could be no more people in the jade pendant.

"Okay!" I took out a local tyrant handbag that Zhuang Yan bought for me yesterday and asked her to try if she could attach it to her.

After Li Xiaoyu went in, I took out my wallet, which I had used for more than ten years, out of my pocket and put all the money into my handbag. However, this bag looks a little shriveled, and it doesn't look like a local tyrant at all. I turned the small book I carried with me from my pocket into my handbag, but I still didn't feel like a local tyrant. Finally, I stuffed my phone into my handbag, finally looked like a rich man, straightened my collar, and went out to the market.
