"How was your rest last night?"

In the conference hall of Room 101 of Heavenly Soul Castle, which has now been transformed into a collection training hall, Fan Zengming arrived early, and when he saw Zhang Su and Pu Zitong coming side by side, he greeted him warmly, which was obviously said to Pu Zitong.

"Brother Fan is early!" Zhang Su and Pu Zitong responded in unison.

"Miss Pu, it seems that Zhang Su has taken good care of you, and you have fully recovered."

Fan Zengming's eyes looked around at Pu Zitong, and found that Pu Zitong didn't seem to have any problems, and sighed with relief.

"Well, thanks to Zhang Su for helping me feed the medicine, he took care of it all night, otherwise I really don't know when it will get better, by the way, I also want to thank Brother Fan for the spiritual cultivation liquid, without this bottle of spiritual cultivation liquid, I estimate that I would have to lie in bed today."

As Pu Zitong spoke, he took out the small bottle containing the spiritual cultivation liquid from his pocket of his clothes, handed it back to Fan Zengming, quietly took a step back, and returned to Zhang Su's side again.

Zhang Su could hear that Pu Zitong deliberately thanked himself first when he spoke, and his tone was full of delicate and birdish taste, this unusual intimate behavior has surpassed the relationship between ordinary friends, and is more like the feeling of "friendship is above and lovers are not full" in other people's mouths, and it is impossible to doubt it.

Fan Zengming stared at Zhang Su, his eyes were neither surprised nor blessed, more doubts and a little mixed contemplation.

"You two are?" Fan Zengming asked.

"What's wrong with the two of us? Yes? Don't get me wrong, Brother Fan, it's not what you think. ”

Pu Zitong quickly took over the conversation, deliberately showing a shy expression, his face flushed, his mouth was panting, his eyes were dodging everywhere, and then he took a step back in the opposite direction of Zhang Su, slightly distanced himself from Zhang Su, waved his hand vigorously at Fan Zengming, and denied it in a panic.

Zhang Su looked at Pu Zitong's performance, and had both disdain and admiration in his heart, despising Pu Zitong's pretense of hypocrisy, admiring Pu Zitong's superb acting skills, knowing that they were temporary fake couples with each other, Pu Zitong was able to act so realistically, completely performing the appearance of a girl in love full of affection, that kind of shyness, that kind of desire to refuse and welcome, more real and reasonable than the love movies he had watched, and he was also a member of the fake couple, Zhang Su was a little ashamed of himself.

"I haven't said anything yet, what is the misunderstanding?" Fan Zengming looked at Pu Zitong's shy and panicked look, smiled lightly, and deliberately quipped.

After listening to Fan Zengming's joke, Pu Zitong's face was as red as a ripe apple, and he quickly covered his cheeks with both hands, skimmed his face, and didn't let Fan Zengming see his appearance, and then found a reason to run away, but in fact he retreated to the corner behind the hall, standing facing the wall, like a penitent little sheep.

Fan Zengming saw Pu Zitong running away, a malicious smile squeezed out of his serious face, and quietly asked Zhang Su: "Zhang Su, what did you two do last night?" ”

"Just feed her medicine on time according to your instructions, Brother Fan." Zhang Su replied innocently, and naturally concealed the content of the transaction between him and Pu Zitong.

"No, don't you think Miss Pu seems to be a different person today?" Fan Zengming asked puzzled.

"Yes, I think so too, but I just fed her four drops of spiritual cultivation liquid according to your instructions, and did nothing else, as soon as she recovered this morning, she was very kind to me as if she had changed as a person, and she was no longer as cold as before, I asked her, and she just said thank you for my care yesterday." Zhang Su replied.

"Incredible."

Fan Zengming sighed, his eyes looked Zhang Su up and down again, on the one hand, he felt that Zhang Su didn't look like he was lying, if Zhang Su really took advantage of people's danger, then Pu Zitong either hated Zhang Zhen to the bone, or was intimate with Zhang Su, not this kind of love affair that was not far from each other; On the other hand, Fan Zengming felt incredible, if it was the same as what Zhang Su said, then this progress was too fast, where is Zhang Su's advantage? Ordinary appearance, figure is also relatively conventional, not funny and humorous enough, not much affinity, looking around, Zhang Su in addition to a bit similar to the withdrawn and self-reliant character, really can't find other characteristics from Zhang Su, Fan Zengming couldn't help but guess that Pu Zitong and Zhang Su may be Wang Ba looking at mung beans and looking at them.

"What's incredible?" Zhang Su heard Fan Zengming muttering in a low voice, and asked in confusion.

"It's nothing, I just think that Miss Pu is also a first-class beauty, you just take care of other people's homes for one night, and they secretly agree, it seems that you have some means." Fan Zengming walked up to Zhang Su's side, patted Zhang Su's shoulder like a big brother, and teased in his mouth.

"Huh? Secret promise? How can it be? How could Miss Pu fall in love with me if she was so beautiful? Brother Fan laughed! Zhang Su deliberately showed a surprised expression, learning from Pu Zitong to make his behavior panic and contrived, since he made a deal with Pu Zitong, how can he be worthy of the rich man.

"Don't you see? She was always far away from you when she was with you before, but now she unconsciously leans towards you, which means that Miss Pu has already meant something to you, you have to grasp it. Fan Zengming carefully analyzed the changes in Pu Zitong.

"Grasp? I don't dare, Miss Pu is a family of soul masters, how can I look down on me, a poor boy who became a monk halfway, and I can't do it in terms of appearance, why do people look down on Miss Pu from me? I know how many pounds and taels I have, and it is easy to break my legs when climbing high branches. Zhang Su quickly explained.

"It's really hard to say, women and men are different, women's minds are clear in addition to her own heart, no one else can guess it, I think you may have some shining points that you haven't even noticed yourself, but you have been favored by Miss Pu, you have to seize this opportunity, you also know that Miss Pu is from the Pu family, that is one of the nine families of the soul master, if you want to advance quickly in the territory of the soul master, it is definitely a shortcut to the Pu family, but I heard that the Pu family is recruiting sons-in-law, and there are already many soul masters who have come to the door to propose, Pu Zitong, the eldest lady of the Pu family, didn't take a fancy to any of them, so she sneaked away to our soul hunting company to hide, and now people can take a fancy to you, which may also be your creation. Fan Zengming leaned on Zhang Su's ear and whispered.

Regarding the Pu family's martial arts competition and recruiting relatives, Zhang Su and Pu Zitong did not tell Fan Zengming, but Fan Zengming is in charge of intelligence, and it should not be difficult to get this kind of news from the outside, Fan Zengming, who has always been upright and rough, will actually pay attention to this kind of gossip information, it seems that the Pu family's fragrant dumplings are very tempting, presumably as long as the soul master who meets the conditions wants to take a bite, Fan Zengming no longer meets the Pu family's recruitment conditions in terms of age, but this does not mean that the soul hunting company behind it has no relevant plans, From what Fan Zengming said, Zhang Su already understood that the company would definitely intervene, but how and when to intervene, Zhang Su did not know.

"And such a good thing?" Zhang Su asked as he pretended to be surprised.

"Well, according to the intelligence, the Pu family is using a competition to recruit relatives to select a young and powerful soul master to join the family, that is, to marry Pu Zitong, it is said that Miss Pu came to our company to avoid this matter, I didn't expect it to be cheap Brother Zhang is cheap, in fact, the company also has some ideas about the Pu family, after all, the Pu family is wide, no matter which force gets it, it will become the number one soul master force today, so the company doesn't want this kind of thing to happen, which is also the reason why the company is willing to accept Miss Pu into the company, for Miss Pu, The company is her temporary protection, and for the company, it is to set up roadblocks to prevent the marriage from happening. Fan Zengming whispered to Zhang.

"It sounds so complicated, since it's a martial arts competition to recruit relatives with a wide range of hero posts, even if people are put under house arrest, it may not have any effect, and the Cao family and the Ye family should be from other soul clans." Zhang Su understood what Fan Zengming meant, and it turned out that the company had already begun to intervene when he received Pu Zitong.

"You're talking about Cao Xuanqing and Ye Liao, they were also deliberately put in by the company, this matter will come back again, the company's original intention is to prevent the marriage of the Pu family to the greatest extent possible, to avoid it from happening too early, the company to prepare a buffer zone for itself in advance, now I see that the relationship between you and Miss Pu is very delicate, so I thought of a better way." Fan Zengming suddenly showed a sly expression, which was completely different from his original serious appearance.

"What's the solution?" Seeing that Fan Zengming lowered his body, Zhang Su looked at himself with straight eyes, and asked weakly in his heart.

"I want to take advantage of Miss Pu's good impression of you, and you will marry the Pu family, on the surface, you are a halfway monk and a soul master with no background, but you are also a member of the company, after marrying the Pu family, you will be able to take charge of the Pu family, get the resources of the Pu family, and your status in the company will be immediately improved, and it should be no problem to become a lifelong consultant of the company, at that time, you are in the two forces of the Pu family and the soul hunting company, and the Pu family and our company will be officially united, therefore, the potential threat of the company will disappear." Fan Zengming spoke his mind.

After Fan Zengming explained, Zhang Su was stunned, not because Fan Zengming's words were beyond Zhang Su's imagination, but because Fan Zengming's words were exactly the same as Zhang Su's previous guess, and this exact guess was the last thing Zhang Su wanted to hear.

"The company is using me!" Zhang asked angrily.

"Brother Zhang, it's wrong for you to understand it this way, the company is not using you, but wants to make a deal with you, because you have this capital." Fan Zengming said.

"Deal?" Zhang Su asked.

"Yes, the reason why I was sent to lead you and Pu Zitong is actually that the company sent me to monitor and protect Miss Pu, but I didn't expect you to be able to get Miss Pu's heart, with this emotional bargaining chip, in the matter of the marriage of the Pu family, you and the company have the capital to negotiate the transaction, I can make a deal with you on behalf of the company, what do you think?" Mr. Zhang? Fan Zengming asked.

"How to trade?" Zhang Su asked rhetorically.

"It's very simple, the soul hunting company will go all out to help you become a soul master, provide you with resources, and give you the ability to compete with other soul masters, and you have to manage the relationship between you and Pu Zitong, and strive to further get Pu Zitong's heart, with an emotional foundation, even if you are not the best among the competitors, the Pu family will also give proper consideration to the relationship between you and Pu Zitong, and your chances of becoming the next head of the Pu family will be relatively large, once you become the head of the Pu family, the company will hand over the reserved consultant seat to you, Then you can have both the resources of the Pu family and the company at the same time, which is not a bad thing for you, for Pu Zitong, and for the soul hunting company. Fan Zengming introduced the trading rules.

"Really? Is this the value I got back by selling my humanity? Zhang Wei asked indifferently.

"How can you say that you are betraying your humanity? Miss Pu already has a good impression of you, you just maintain this good feeling, and it is logical that you will get married Yan'er. Fan Zengming enlightened Zhang Su.

"Before you and I made this deal, it was only logical when I had feelings for Miss Pu when we had feelings for each other, and now, this 'chapter' has been stained with a rotten smell, and the process of smoothing is just scraping off the rotten skin on the outside layer by layer, in fact, the rot is from the inside out." Zhang Su sighed and said.

"And what do you want?" Fan Zengming seemed to understand what Zhang Su meant, and asked coldly.

"I don't want to do anything, I can do this deal, but I want the company to add some more chips." Zhang Su suddenly raised his head and looked directly at Fan Zengming, and said.

"Bargging? Who do you think you are? You're not even a soul master now, and you're embarrassed to ask for chips! Fan Zengming was a little happy when he saw that Zhang Su had a breakthrough, but when he heard that Zhang Su had other requirements, he showed an angry expression again.

"Brother Fan, no matter what you say, you came to me, you helped the company to prevent the Pu family from merging with other soul master families, and the company will not give you less rewards, if it is your effort to train me to become a soul master, then when I came to join the soul hunting company, this condition had already been written into the contract, that is to say, I became a soul master and hunted the souls for the company is a deal in itself, you did not add other conditions on top of this, as for what you said that the Pu family will arrange for me to be a consultant of the company, it is just a blank checkFor another time, I just want some equivalent quid pro quo, or venture capital that the company does on me. Zhang Su explained his opinion.

"On what terms?" Fan Zengming asked, and he suddenly found that the Zhang Su in front of him was not as simple as he imagined.

"What I want to do is to consolidate the relationship with Miss Pu, and even succeed in the end, but you also said that the Pu family is engaged in a martial arts competition, so as the first condition, I need to become a soul master as soon as possible, and have strong strength support, so that I can stand in the final ring." Zhang Su's eyes rolled and he put forward the first condition.

"That's no problem, the company's exercises and soul skills are up to you." Fan Zengming thought for a moment and said.

"I want to know everything about the Pu family, which is also good for me to compete for the position of head of the family." Zhang said.

"I can't ask for it." Of course, Fan Zengming will not object to such a pro-competition requirement.

"In addition to the future bounty income, I will have an additional annual salary of 300,000 yuan per Chinese New Year's Eve, and I will pay half of it in advance when I officially join the company." Zhang Su continued to put forward the conditions.

"I can't do this thing, I need to apply to my superiors, but the amount you said is not too big, there should be no problem." Fan Zengming replied.

"I want two horcruxes that can save my life, in the future, I will face so many conscripts, I don't know how powerful they are, at least I have to leave some life-saving means, I heard Hu Xige say that many people will wear some horcruxes with them to protect themselves, especially powerful horcruxes, which have a great effect." Zhang Su said the last condition.

"I'll also report this, but if it's just a Horcrux, there are a few pieces in the Horcrux room of this Heavenly Soul Castle, and it is estimated that you will be able to choose from them, but it is not a harsh condition, do you have any other requirements besides?" Fan Zengming was not angry because of Zhang Su's request, and was faintly happy.

Zhang Su saw Fan Zengming's expression, he didn't feel angry at all when he was looted and blackmailed by others, Zhang Su knew that he seemed to be going to be less, but if he let himself add something else, Zhang Su didn't know what to add, he felt that it was okay to ask for so much.

"Okay, that's all, I won't open my mouth anymore, if I become a soul master, this soul hunting company can be regarded as my big boss, and I have to get along well in the future." Zhang Su smiled, even if he didn't come out, he would have to pretend to sell the other party's favor, and put his surplus value first, maybe it would be useful in the future.

"I thought you were going to open a big price, but I didn't expect it to be just that, since it's decided, our deal will be concluded, everything has to be counted from the moment you become a soul master, if you fail to become a soul master, the Pu family won't want you, our deal will have no prerequisites, and no matter how much you want, it's in vain." Fan Zengming reminded.

"When do you start practicing?" Zhang Su ignored Fan Zengming's reminder and asked.

Fan Zengming looked at his watch, the time was just right, just when he reached the specified training time, he beckoned Zhang Su and Pu Zitong to enter an area in the hall together, where there were pre-marked classification signs on the floor, and the area marked with the word "Qi" was the scope of newcomer activities of Qicheng Branch.

Executive Officer Zheng appeared again, he walked quickly to the front of the conference hall, stood behind the podium, and began to speak into the microphone: "Hello everyone, I am Zheng Tianqin, let's meet again, the next actual training is still in charge of me, within three months to complete the three steps of Kaiyuan, distraction, and Yangshen to become a soul master, today is the newcomer Kaiyuan training, the specific content is taught by the team leader, as much as possible to explain to everyone the feelings of Kaiyuan, so that the newcomer can succeed in Kaiyuan, okay, that's it, let's start." ”

Zhang Su has already become a soul master in one night under the prompting of Pu Zitong, and then looking at the way that the team leaders and teachers in the field talked hard about Kaiyuan for their newcomers, Zhang Su felt that knowledge and understanding were very important, and it was difficult for team leaders without a certain cultural background to explain Kaiyuan clearly.

Although Zhang Su has become a soul master, he still followed Pu Zitong's "hidden" suggestion, and carefully asked Fan Zengming about Kaiyuan's feelings and experience, and then pretended to be laborious, and it took a whole day to reveal his Kaiyuan skills, even Fan Zengming didn't see the flaws, and he was happy, surprised and happy that Zhang Su had found Kaiyuan's method in one day, happy with his strength as an instructor, surprised by Zhang Su's potential, and happy because the possibility of a formal transaction with Zhang Su had increased.
