Volume 2: Entering the Ghost Feast by Mistake Verse 77: Confessing Mistakes
"I'll go, aren't you, you actually got the junior ghost alone?" It was almost five o'clock in the afternoon when Zhang Su returned to the Soul Hunting Company, and Hu Xi looked at the bounty handed over by Zhang Su with a junior ghost and said in surprise.
"Any questions?" Zhang Su asked.
"There's no problem, I feel that the soul power in your body has been consumed a lot, so I should have wasted a lot of energy." Hu Xi replied.
"It's okay, I've wasted a lot of time, so it's a little late to turn in the revenant today." Zhang Su nodded truthfully.
"I only changed my mind yesterday, and today I work so hard, I really have you, you don't warm up, and you're not afraid of being planted in the hands of a ghost." Hu Xi teased.
"Then what's there to warm up, I'm a junior soul king, if I can't even help a junior ghost, then I'm too wasteful, but to be honest, hunting a junior ghost is indeed more difficult than I imagined, the soul power and soul skill power of the junior ghost are not comparable to the advanced ghost level, I fight ten ghost a day It's fine, but after fighting a junior ghost, the soul power is almost exhausted, and it almost let it run away." Zhang Su sighed.
"Didn't you accept the reward from the imp in the real estate of Qingfu Zhilan? What's wrong? Got a hard stubble? Hu Xi asked.
"Well, the soul skill that can actually be transformed into an ancient dinosaur has become the appearance of an ancient dinosaur, and the attack power is not low, I really don't have a few attack-type soul skills in my hand to compete with it, so I can only consume soul power with it, and finally take a trick to solve it." Zhang Su replied.
"Hearing you say this, I think your behavior is a bit risky, next time you take the soul power above the level of a little ghost, it's better to find a partner, and you can't have that incident with Lu Sengo again." Hu Xi pondered for a moment and suggested.
"Partner? I'm used to being alone, and in the soul catcher of the soul hunting company, the only one I can trust is Brother Lusen, and the others have not been in contact, and they may not be able to get along, so I am not willing to consider this aspect, not to mention that the bounty I get for soul hunting alone is also high, Qingfu Zhilan's bounty is seven hundred and fifty yuan, plus my three high-level ghasts, exactly one thousand a day, I want to do it like this every day, and I will definitely be able to make a fortune. Zhang said with a grin.
"Hmph, have you gone from an unenterprising bastard to a fool who doesn't want to die? I don't believe that you hunted ghosts alone for money, to put it bluntly, it was to vent the grievances in your heart, it seems that you still haven't really come out of the last incident. Hu Xi snorted coldly, as if he saw the stubbornness in Zhang Su's heart.
Zhang Su didn't speak, just slowly lowered his head, he was able to come out just to take revenge, if it was so hard to even hunt a junior ghost, then there would be even more hope of dealing with an intermediate ghost-level overturned ghost.
"Look, I knew it was going on, so how about I find you a reliable partner?" Hu Xi asked with a smile.
"You're going to help me find a partner?" Zhang Zhen was slightly surprised and asked puzzled.
"That's right, I also know the reason why you don't look for a partner, isn't it that you are not familiar with each other, if you don't have a relationship, you won't cooperate, it is inevitable that there will be a bad heart, this kind of thing is not easy to say, it is the same company, everyone also has their own thoughts, and no one will consider each other first when they really cooperate, and I understand this kind of thing if you don't say it." Hu Xi looked at Zhang Su and said most of what Zhang Su was thinking.
"Since you know, then the soul master partner you found for me must be someone I am familiar with, in this Qicheng Soul Hunting Company, except for Brother Lusen, you are the most familiar to me, is it possible that you put aside the position of secretary to experience the life of our grassroots soul master?" Zhang Su deliberately teased.
"Do you think the work of a secretary is easy to do, and I can hand over the work of serving Old Man Yan every day if you want to, but the partner I recommended is really not me, except for me, Lu Sen, and Lin Yan, do you think about who you know best in the company?" Hu Xi looked at Zhang Ji playfully and asked.
"Who else do you know best? That's the cadres of Elder Yan and Brother Fan, except for them, oh, I think about it, could it be...... Is it Pu Zitong? Zhang Su took a breath and asked.
"That's right, it's Miss Pu, she hasn't been to the company for more than half a year since she was a newcomer training, she has always been focused on further study, and now she has stabilized to the level of an intermediate soul king, just yesterday, I told her about your exit, she said that she is also going to go out, and wants to form a partner with you to hunt souls, so she consulted me for advice." Hu Xi replied in the affirmative.
"Then why didn't she come to me directly, and let you pass on a message first?" Zhang asked puzzled.
"Why? Didn't I tell you before? You have been snubbing other little girls for more than four months, and other little girls are angry with you now, girls have a thin face, how can they take the initiative to speak, you personally find her to admit your mistake, and they will give you a step down, and this matter will be done. Hu Xi guessed.
Zhang Su rubbed his head, Hu Xi didn't know the relationship between him and Pu Zitong, he was like a mirror in his heart, he and Pu Zitong were fake couples, and the awkward statement that the little couple was awkward didn't make sense at all, that meant that Pu Zitong should have encountered something, and it was not good to take the initiative to come to him, so he could only let Hu Xi pass the word in the middle, what kind of situation needs to be passed on indirectly through others? What are the circumstances in which you need to be the first to speak? Zhang Zhen couldn't figure it out.
"Did Miss Pu come to you in person or did she say it on the phone?" Zhang Zhen pondered for a moment and asked.
"You came to my house last night and found me." Hu Xi replied.
"You were looking for you personally? What did they say? Zhang Su felt that something was wrong, and then asked.
"I didn't say anything, I didn't say five sentences before and after, I don't remember the specifics, first I cried that you snubbed her, and then said that you need to take the initiative to apologize to her before she forgives you, and said that she moved, if you want to apologize, make a phone call first, apologize to be sincere and sincere, explain the reason for snubbing her clearly, she doesn't want to hear anything else, and finally said that she wants to form a soul-hunting partner with you." Hu Xi recalled.
Zhang Su sorted out the statement relayed by Hu Xi, connected and thought for a while, and finally, he seemed to understand the reason why Pu Zitong was looking for him, maybe Pu Zitong's purpose was not to partner with him, but Pu Zitong should need Zhang Su's rescue at this time.
"I see, I'll contact her." Zhang Su nodded at Hu Xi in response.
"That's good, the little couple is a husband and wife, it's a realistic version of the Condor Heroes." Hu Xi saw that Zhang Su agreed, and praised it with words in his mouth.
"Oh, who are you passing it on? There are dozens of people in our branch, and the Yao family, the largest soul master family in Qicheng, is only a hundred or so soul masters, and if you want to pass it on, someone has to want to hear it. Zhang Su pouted and smiled.
"Even the Yao family knows, it's okay, it seems that the books borrowed from Zhong Lao are not in vain." Hu Xi continued to tease.
"I don't know if I don't read books, I still know something about the Qicheng Soul Master Realm, you said that Zhong Lao remembered it, I still owe Old Man Zhong a borrowing fee, and I have to send it to him later." After Hu Xiyi's prompting, Zhang Su remembered the incident between himself and Zhong Tianli.
"Go quickly, I'll help Miss Pu bring the words to you, I won't leave you to eat tonight, I have to invite Lin Yan to eat, yesterday I went to the big full-seat restaurant in the university town in the west of the city you said, the environment is really good in all aspects, when I went to eat by myself, I saw a lot of couples talking about love in it, the dim red light in the compartment, coupled with the kind of fragrance that emits a special aroma, creates a feeling of confusion, good." Hu Xi exclaimed.
"Confused? It's called elegance and emotion, and good places are ruined by your word, hey. Zhang glanced at Hu Xi and sighed.
"What do you know, do you know why such a sentimental place is called a big full seat?" Hu Xi raised his eyebrows and asked deliberately.
"Why?" Zhang asked puzzled.
"I was sitting there alone last night, and when I was fine, the owner came to talk to me, and I asked him this question, and guess how he answered." Hu Xi deliberately sold a pass and said.
"How did you answer that?" Zhang Su continued to ask.
"He said that he originally wanted to call it Da Manchu Han Quanxi, but later he pulled out the two words Hanquan to metaphor 'Chengquan Han', so he left the three words Da Manquan as a signboard on the bright side." Hu Xi explained.
Zhang Su looked at Zhang Su in surprise, he didn't expect that the owner of the restaurant was also Hu Xi and others, maybe Hu Xi's explanation of the restaurant environment was correct, and the boss really wanted to create an atmosphere of confusion.
Zhang Su said goodbye to Hu Xi, first went to hand over the hunted souls, and after getting the bounty in his hand, Zhang Su went to the second floor to find Zhong Tianli again, first paid the loan fee owed last time, and then secretly discussed with Zhong Tianli the maintenance method of the Tudun furnace, Zhong Tianli loves the Horcrux as his life, although the Tudun furnace has been sold to Zhang Su, but since the horcrux is from his hand, he still carefully instructed Zhang Su to maintain the Tudun furnace method, which makes Zhang Su feel that Zhong Tianli is not as annoying as others say, On the contrary, I feel that Zhong Tianli is like an old naughty boy, he is old and stubborn, but he is a little childlike serious and willful.
didn't rush the company to get off work, Zhang Su didn't even take the reward and left the company first, he didn't go to Hu Xi again when he left, he was afraid that he would not pay attention to disturb Hu Xi and Lin Yan's date, this kind of thing is too immoral, so he chose to avoid it.
As soon as he left the company, Zhang Su rode his electric car and rushed home, his purpose was very simple, that is, to take the initiative to call Pu Zitong, this matter seemed insignificant, but Zhang Su was always a little relieved, he didn't know why Pu Zitong would pass the word through Hu Xi, but he could vaguely feel the helplessness and involuntary behind the matter.
Doodoo ......
Zhang Su sat on the chair in front of his computer desk and dialed Pu Zitong's mobile phone number reserved by him, but no one answered after a long ring.
Doodoo ......
Zhang Su replayed it, it was still just a waiting voice, the phone could be dialed, but there was still no one answering on the other side.
Just when Zhang Su was about to broadcast it for the third time, Pu Zitong's caller ID appeared on Zhang Su's phone, and it was obviously Pu Zitong who called back.
"You are?" The voice of a man with a strong breath asked the phone.
"Isn't this the phone number of a girl surnamed Pu? Did I make a mistake? Zhang Su was a little puzzled and asked cautiously.
"It's Pu Zitong's phone, who are you?" The man continued to ask after affirming.
"I'm Zhang Su, I'm looking for Pu Zitong, can you please give her the phone?" Zhang Su frowned and said.
"Heh, you are Zhang Su, I am Pu Zitong's father, Pu Linggong, how long have you not made this call? Why did you call today? The man asked after announcing his name.
"Ah, uncle, hello, hello, I made this call to admit my mistake to Pu Zitong, I was lost for a while because I was stimulated by soul hunting a few months ago, and I also snubbed Pu Zitong for a while, and now I have recovered a lot, and I want to admit my mistake to Pu Zitong." As soon as he heard the man's self-registration number, Zhang Su instantly understood what Pu Zitong meant by asking him to take the initiative to contact him, which means that Pu Zitong is very likely to be controlled at present.
"Stimulated by a soul hunt? What stimulated you? Serious or not? Pu Linggong asked.
"I just broke into the ghost banquet by mistake, I was injured, and my friend died at the ghost banquet, so I can't support it mentally." Zhang Su replied.
"Ghost feast by mistake? What level of ghost feast? Pu Linggong seemed to be very curious about Zhang Su's matter, and continued to ask.
"One intermediate ghost, one intermediate ghost, seven junior ghosts, and thirty or forty ghasts." Zhang Su answered truthfully.
"I thought why the ghost banquet, there is only one middle-level ghost in the lead, so-so, just like this, you can also die?" Pu Linggong didn't seem to be frightened by the ghost banquet situation that Zhang Su said, but was a little disdainful.
"Well, Luxengo died to protect me, so I had a nervous breakdown for a few months." Zhang Su nodded, he originally wanted to refute Pu Linggong, but when he thought that from Pu Linggong's level and perspective, he really wouldn't take this kind of ghost banquet seriously, so he could only admit it.
"Out of breath! How could my daughter like you such a weak bird, not to mention the weak strength, and the friends who were involved were killed, I am now wondering, will my daughter be killed by you when she is with you! Pu Linggong said coldly.
Zhang Su pondered, did not answer immediately, he recalled the scene of the ghost banquet again, he was thinking in his mind if the day of the accident was not by his side Lu Sen, but a person he really loved, this person was not necessarily Pu Zitong, but a person who represented love, then what would he do, would he still run away? Or do you want to stay and be gone? He didn't know the answer, but he knew that the final outcome would not escape the fate of someone dying, because it was the certainty after the ghost feast by mistake.
"What's the matter, boy? Scared or timid? Don't dare to answer? Pu Linggong snorted coldly.
"I admit that I am very weak, I can't save Brother Lusen, even if I am replaced by someone else in the situation of the ghost banquet that day, I can only admit that I am powerless to rescue, there are only two things I can do, first, save my life and take revenge; Second, I went to Huangquan together, faced with Lusengo, and faced with friendship, I finally chose the road of revenge, but if I was facing love or lovers, maybe I would choose to go to Huangquan together. Zhang said bitterly.
"I can't see that your kid is still so infatuated, but what's the use of infatuation, people are dead, their souls are gone, can you still redeem the dead people if you regret it?" Pu Linggong asked.
"It's irreparable, so the reason why I'm back on my feet is to make myself stronger, strong enough to protect everyone around me from ghasts, this is my realization." Zhang Su replied calmly.
"It was quite real just now, why is this talking big again? You're just a junior soul king, and I, an intermediate soul immortal, don't dare to protect everyone around you, so where do you have the ability to protect those people? Pu Linggong asked disdainfully.
"My guarantee is to spare no effort to become stronger, compared to other soul masters, my soul master career is still relatively short, there is still more to go, if you want to become stronger, you have to keep working hard, keep cultivating and enterprising, this is what I can guarantee, but if someone wants to hurt the person I love, I will fight hard and will not let that person live comfortably." Zhang said ruthlessly.
"There is so much youthful madness, I like it, but I still want to say that whether you are young and frivolous, young or old, you must not lose your sense of proportion in everything, on the road of soul master, too crazy and easy to die, too stable and easy to die, you have to grasp this degree yourself." Pu Linggong changed his previous words and praised a few words.
"Huh?" Zhang Su was a little surprised by the change in Pu Linggong's tone.
"It's nothing, I know the reason why you haven't contacted my daughter in the past few months, don't be important to me, since you didn't cheat or have an affair, I don't have to abolish you first, although my daughter values you, I also want to say ugly things in front, the matter of recruiting relatives in martial arts is determined by me, naturally I won't change the rules, or that sentence If you have the ability, you can eventually become a family with my daughter, and if you don't have the ability, I won't easily hand over my daughter to you, I heard rumors that you look very average in all aspects, It's said that you and my daughter are not a good match, but I don't believe this, since you can win the championship in the rookie battle with the participation of newcomers from the nine major families, it can be seen that your ability is not weak, and I am looking forward to seeing you appear in the final martial arts arena. Pu Linggong knew that Zhang was a little puzzled, so he explained simply.
"That, uncle, I was second when I was a rookie." Zhang Su reminded weakly.
"Second? Hmph, don't think I don't know about your kid deliberately admitting defeat, do you think the old guys in the major families are stupid? Those little guys can't see that you are deliberately admitting defeat and avoiding the edge, can it be that those elders and guests who have been in the soul master realm for decades can't see that you are doing it on purpose, but they don't want to demolish you, what you have done Elder Pu Mu has already told me, use the kid of the Guyue family as a shield, and it is also thanks to you that you can do it, at first I thought that you and my Pu'er were cheating, but as soon as your method came out, I knew that you had the purpose of helping yourself and my Pu'er to recuperate, I think you and Pu'er are sincere. Pu Linggong explained.
Fraud, Zhang Su was shocked when he heard this word, he thought that his deal with Pu Zitong had been discovered, but he didn't expect Pu Linggong's brain circuit to be different from ordinary people, and his own small means actually turned into a condition for Pu Linggong to trust, Zhang Su didn't dare to say anything, he could only ask with a wry smile: "Where is Pu Zitong now?" I'm going to admit my mistake and invite her to join me in the soul hunt. ”
"Oh, I came to visit her in this Qi City, I'll give her the phone back later, and you can discuss your own affairs, by the way, don't forget what you said, even if you fight for your soul, you have to protect my daughter, I'm so selfish, do you understand?" Pu Linggong finally gave a death order on the phone.
"Understood!" Zhang Su replied.
