Chapter 31 The road is narrow

The sudden change caught Zhou Kui a little off guard, he subconsciously untied the yellow cloth bag and took out a piece of talisman paper by feeling.

At this critical juncture, Lao Wang said calmly: "Don't panic, the two Taoists, the No. 1 elevator has often had this kind of accident recently, and it will return to normal in a few minutes." ”

As soon as the words fell, the lighting inside the elevator was restored, Guo Jia glanced at the numbers on the electronic display screen, and said with palpitations: "It's really a false alarm, the elevator has started to operate." ”

A few seconds later, the elevator stopped on the eighteenth floor, and Guo Jia and Zhou Kui stepped out of the elevator behind Lao Wang and turned left into a dim, long aisle.

"Two Dao Masters, we're here!"

Lao Wang raised his hand and knocked lightly on the office door, and a deep baritone voice came from inside: "Come in!" ”

Guo Jia and Zhou Kui walked into the office one after another, and when they looked up, a middle-aged strong man with a shiny face and a suit and leather shoes was sitting at the desk, with Erlang's legs crossed and a cigarette in his mouth, it seemed that he was Ling Zhengyi, the chairman of Shuangling Group.

"Lao Wang, you go out first, I have something to say to the two Taoist leaders."

Waiting for Lao Wang to leave the office, Ling Zhengyi got up from his seat and greeted with a smile on his face: "Dao Chief, please take a seat, I'll make you tea!" ”

Guo Jia sat on the sofa and stretched out his hand to stop: "Mr. Ling, you don't have to be polite, let's hurry up and get to the point!" ”

Ling Zhengyi nodded, and said with a smile: "What the Dao Chief said is extremely true, the time is not early, then I will make a long story short." Here's the thing....."

After listening to Ling Zhengyi's narration, Guo Jia found that the supernatural events he mentioned were no different from what Shen Ruolan said, but Ling Zhengyi was more exaggerated than Shen Ruolan in terms of words.

"I understand what Mr. Ling meant, the recent frequent supernatural events have seriously affected the company's performance and stability, in order to avoid further deterioration of the situation, so we were invited to the company to exorcise evil spirits."

Ling Zhengyi sat on the sofa opposite Guo Jia, holding a cigarette in his right hand, and said indifferently: "Anyway, that's the case, and I ask the Taoist chief to help me, after the matter is completed, I will be thanked!" ”

Guo Jia and Zhou Kui bowed slightly, saying that they would do their best to drive away the evil.

Ling Zhengyi took out a check from the inside pocket of his suit and put it on the table, Zhou Kui reached out and picked up the check when he saw this, just glanced at it, and was so shocked that his eyes were about to fly out.

"1, 1 million!"

Guo Jia turned his head and saw the numbers written on the check, and said in a somewhat embarrassed tone: "Mr. Ling, I'm afraid this is a little inappropriate, right?" ”

Ling Zhengyi smacked his lips and retorted, "This money should be regarded as a hardship fee advanced to the two of you in advance, if you can successfully resolve the incident, I will pay you more compensation!" ”

"Mr. Ling, you misunderstood, I mean as a cultivator.......

Ling Zhengyi waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "Dao Elder doesn't need to say much, it's already so late today, please go and rest quickly!" I have prepared the room, this is the room key, please keep it safe. ”

Guo Jia and Zhou Kui took the room card and glanced at the room number marked on it.

"Mr. Ling, your company even has a room for guests to live in?" Guo Jia asked curiously.

Ling Zhengyi walked back to his desk, picked up the mobile phone on the table, and replied to Guo Jia while texting: "Rooms 1801 and 1802 are specially set aside by the company to receive foreign guests. The canteen is on the second floor, you can enjoy three meals for free with a meal coupon, and the meal coupon is placed on the bedside table in the room. ”

After explaining these matters, Ling Zhengyi took Guo Jia and Zhou Kui to room 1801, Guo Jia pushed open the door and took a cursory look, the furnishings in the house were all available, just like the configuration of a five-star hotel.

"The two Taoist leaders should rest early, I still have something to deal with, so I'll be out of company first! If anything, please call the landline number of my office. ”

After Ling Zhengyi walked away, Guo Jia asked Zhou Kui to go back to the room first, and the mobile phone was kept on, and Zhou Kui nodded in agreement.

Lying on the soft and comfortable bed, Zhou Kui couldn't help but yawn a few times, and at this moment, the white rat spirit suddenly came out of the yellow cloth bag.

"Whew, suffocate me!"

Zhou Kui jumped up from the bed, with a shocked expression on his face: "Why did you follow?" I didn't wake you up! ”

The white rat spirit blinked his cunning eyes and replied mischievously, "When you weren't paying attention, I sneaked into the yellow cloth bag." But then again, you kid is really good, you didn't even tell me when you went out on a mission! ”

Zhou Kui quibbled: "Aren't I a noble person who forgets things? ”

"Forget it, I don't have to worry about you so much, this bed is so comfortable to sleep on......"

As soon as the words fell, Zhou Kui heard the white rat spirit snoring loudly.

"Alas, there's really nothing I can do with him!"

Zhou Kui knew in his heart that they were now in a very dangerous environment, and they couldn't sleep as peacefully as they did in the Heavenly Master's Mansion, and they had to be highly vigilant at all times.

He put the sword on his pillow, lay down in his clothes, covered himself with a quilt, and closed his eyes to recuperate.

The strong drowsiness surged like a tide, and just when Zhou Kui felt that he couldn't hold it anymore, a familiar woman's voice suddenly came from outside the room.

"Daochang Guo, no, Brother Guo Jia, you just let me in!"

When Zhou Kui heard the voice, a name immediately appeared in his mind: "Ling Chuixue!" ”

He jumped out of bed, walked to the door of the room in the dark, stood on tiptoe, and observed the situation outside through the cat's eye on the door.

"Can't see ...... clearly"

Zhou Kui took off the anti-theft bolt, gently opened the door, and looked out.

I saw Ling Chuixue wearing a snow-white and attractive tulle nightdress, standing outside Guo Jia's room.

"Miss Ling, why are you coming here when you don't sleep so late?" Guo Jia exposed a gap in the door of the room, he stood behind the door, and said in an unkind tone.

Ling Chuixue grabbed the door with her hand unrelentingly, and asked delicately: "I heard that Brother Guo Jia came to our company to exorcise evil spirits, and he was so happy that he couldn't sleep, so I came to look for you." ”

"You go back, my junior brother and I will go to see your father again tomorrow morning." Guo Jia responded indifferently.

"What's the matter, just tell me, I'm the company's second-in-command!"

Guo Jia glanced at her, and said in a somewhat annoyed tone: "Ling Chuixue, please respect yourself!" ”

"Okay, okay, I'll go back to sleep, Brother Guo Jia, we'll see you tomorrow!"

Before leaving, Ling Chuixue didn't forget to throw a flying kiss at Guo Jia.

Guo Jia slammed the door shut, rushed into the bathroom, and kept retching into the toilet.

"This woman is so disgusting that she almost threw up my dinner."

Back at the bedside, Guo Jia turned on his mobile phone and couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw the message sent by Shen Ruolan.

"Brother Jia's movements are quite fast, you wait, I'll come to the company to find you on Monday."

"You girl, I'm not here to play."

"I—Of course I know, didn't I want to help you investigate the supernatural event?"

"Just leave the investigation to us, and you can work here with peace of mind!"

Guo Jia and Shen Ruolan chatted like this, and before you knew it, they chatted until the early morning of the next day.

Early the next morning, as soon as the sky was bright, Zhou Kui finished washing, took the breakfast coupon and pushed the door out.

"Yo, isn't this Zhou Kui? What a coincidence, we meet again! ”

Pushing open the door, he saw Ling Chuixue coming over, Zhou Kui said with a disgusted face as if he had seen a plague god: "Don't be bored, senior brother won't take care of you!" ”

Ling Chuixue stopped, looked back at Zhou Kui, and cursed with a cold look in her eyes: "You don't have to worry about my business, if you dare to interfere with my good deeds, don't blame me for being rude!" ”

Zhou Kui shot back helplessly: "Yes, yes, yes, you can be happy!" ”

It's really a narrow road, Zhou Kui couldn't help but complain silently in his heart.
