Chapter 40: An Unexpected Surprise
"Mortal, you have to think clearly, just like the thousand-year-old ghost just said, if you become your ghost servant, you will be the enemy of the entire Netherworld!" The female ghost asked, "Do you still want me to be your ghost servant?" ”
Bai Zhuo's peachwood sword pointed at the throat of this female ghost and said, "Yes, of course, you bought it back from my three hundred soul beads!" ”
“…… What do you think of this, I'll help you catch other ghosts and come back to you as ghost servants, two of them are fine, you let me go, how about it? The female ghost persuaded. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"No, you bought it from me with three hundred soul beads." Bai Zhuo said expressionlessly.
“…… Why are you like this? Three! Three ghost servants, guaranteed to be a good deal! ”
But Bai Zhuo seemed to have entered a demonic barrier, no matter how much the female ghost persuaded him, he didn't agree, the female ghost had nothing to do, gritted her teeth and said, "That's it, I will sign a fifty-year master-servant contract with you!" Fifty years is long enough for a mere mortal like you, how about it? ”
Bai Zhuo calculates the time, he will be in his seventies after fifty years, it should be enough, although he can't completely subdue this female ghost, but it's better than a fish dying and the net is broken.
"Deal!"
The ghost contract is very simple, and Bai Zhuo is not afraid of this female ghost being funny, so he successfully signed the ghost contract. Bai Zhuo only felt a trace of cool aura penetrate, and then he had an indescribable feeling, something seemed to connect him with this female ghost.
"My name is Phantom Sparrow."
"Phantom Sparrow?"
"Yes, Phantom Sparrow, something else, you don't know much about it. What's your name? ”
"You are to call me master."
“…… Why? ”
"You're signing an unequal treaty!"
"I'm telling you, I just didn't want to go back to the underworld, so I chose to sign a ghost contract with you, otherwise you think I can serve you as a mortal?"
"You're just a little ghost, why did you get such a big breath?"
Phantom Sparrow said, "Hehe, I'm very capable." ”
"Just talk about it and don't practice, you let me see what you can do."
Phantom Sparrow hesitated for a moment and said, "Well, it's nothing to let you see as a mortal, don't be scared." I don't know what I look like in your eyes, now, imagine your favorite person. ”
"Is it really related to hallucinations? Imagine my favorite person? People I like...... Ouyang Shirui ...... "Bai Zhuo only felt a momentary feeling of dizziness coming, and the phantom sparrow in front of him suddenly blurred his face, and gradually turned into Ouyang Shirui's appearance, this Ouyang Shirui with pear blossoms and rain was the Ouyang Shirui in the French restaurant that day!"
Bai Zhuo looked a little dazed. "Ouyang Shirui" opened her mouth and asked: "Now, imagine what you are most afraid of?" ”
"I'm most afraid of Xiaoqiang...... Hiss...... ...... hastily" Bai Zhuo just finished speaking, only to see that the "Ouyang Shirui" in front of him suddenly "fell apart" and turned into thousands of people transformed from cockroaches! The hairs on Bai Zhuo's whole body stood up, and he exclaimed, "It's okay, it's okay!" It's horrible! This thing ......"
In this way, Bai Zhuo's first ghost servant was born......
……
It's another day in a flash, and there is only one day left before the Zhongyuan Ghost Festival, Bai Zhuo has completely given up the expectation of winning the grand prize in the competition, and it's just a secret marriage, and it's a big deal to get rid of the female ghost, but he doesn't know the danger.
Ge Lao is also very troubled, the cheap apprentice made a deal with the ghost, in order to cancel the ghost contract, he had to participate in the competition and get the top three, but he was busy with those trivial matters, and he had no time to pay attention to this apprentice, so he could only be left to fend for himself.
That night, Bai Zhuo was studying the nameless white paper when the mobile phone on the table suddenly rang. It's an unfamiliar phone number.
Bai Zhuo picked up the phone suspiciously.
"Hey, who's that?"
"Hello, is it Mr. Bai Zhuobai?"
"Yes, you are?"
"Oh, I'm a slow delivery, here's a copy of your package that you need to sign for."
"Package?" Bai Zhuo said strangely: "I've never bought anything online, how can there be a package?" You're a liar, right? ”
The other end of the phone hurriedly explained: "Oh, you misunderstood, Mr. Bai, I am not a liar, here is a package signed Bai Yunfei, we are a slow delivery company, Mr. Bai Yunfei specified this date, let us personally deliver the package to Mr. Bai Zhuo's hands." ”
"My dad? My dad is long gone, it's been more than ten years! Bai Zhuo was surprised that his parents had passed away more than ten years ago, how could there be a package left for him?
"I don't know about Mr. Bai, but our company has been established for more than 20 years, this is a slow delivery, the procedures are normal, the fees are paid, I will deliver the goods to the door, just check with your ID card, and then sign for it."
Bai Zhuo thought about it, since this is the case, it shouldn't be a liar, he reported the address to the other party, saying that he would sign on time at eight o'clock in the evening.
Sure enough, at eight o'clock, there was a knock at the door, and after the courier checked Bai Zhuo's identity, he put down the package and left.
The package box was the size of a basketball, and Bai Zhuo opened the box curiously, and inside was a wooden box. There is a special sigil on the box. He opened the wooden box, and a fragrant aura penetrated into his nostrils, and then Bai Zhuo exhaled and dissipated into nothingness. If anyone who knows how to see this scene, they will definitely be shocked that their jaws are about to fall!
In the box, the first thing that catches your eye is a letter, and the stationery is made of cowhide.
Bai Zhuo trembled his hands and opened the letter, and a whole page of Juanjuan embroidery came into view:
My precious son Bai Zhuo personally opened. Son, if nothing else, when you read this letter, your father and I are long gone, I believe you have grown up, and your parents left early, sorry for you. In our onmyoji industry, there are almost few who can die well, divination and fortune-telling, exorcism and exorcism, and leaking heavenly secrets. The more the heavens leak, the faster they die. Son, you are gifted, although you are not a congenital eye, but you are not as good as you, but your parents don't need you to have much ability or want you to revive the Bai family or anything, they just want you to grow up safely and healthily. Of course, if one day you also embark on the path of your parents, your parents will also fully support you! Your father told you your fortune and said that you will have a catastrophe when you are twenty-six years old, and this package is the gift that your parents left for your twenty-sixth birthday! Happy birthday to you, baby!
Love your mom and love your dad.
It's my birthday? Bai Zhuo exclaimed, he has been lonely for so many years, and he has even forgotten his birthday, this gift is too surprising!
Bai Zhuo carefully folded the letter, put it aside, looked into the wooden box, and fished out a dozen rune papers, he gasped and was shocked: "Hiss! This is! High-end rune paper! ”
Black rune paper, purple rune paper, and five-color rune paper, there are at least fifty or sixty sheets of thick stacks! This is going to be sent! In the yin and yang market, although the intermediary's rune paper only needs five years of soul sealing beads, high-grade rune paper is definitely a priceless existence, plus the ghost hunting competition is approaching, it is normal for a high-grade rune paper to be fried to hundreds or even thousands!
Bai Zhuo calmed down his excitement and found that there were still a few things in the box. A thumb-sized turquoise bead, a small golden bell tied with a red string, and an old yellowed photograph.
The photo has been blurred, Bai Zhuo's nose is sour, and he can vaguely see that this is a family photo, his grandparents are there, and he is lying in his mother's swaddling clothes. There is also a line of words on the back of the photo: This is a water-repellent bead, a token of love for my granddaughter-in-law, as for this golden bell, my grandfather doesn't know what it is for, but it is all passed down in a single vein, which is a family heirloom of the Bai family, so it must be properly kept.
With tears in the corners of his eyes, Bai Zhuo chuckled and said, "Got it, grandpa." ”
He picked up the golden bell and felt as if he had seen it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a moment. He picked up the red string of the bell and shook it gently.
"Jingle bell~" is crisp and pleasant, more beautiful than the wind chimes, Bai Zhuo couldn't help but be stunned, but he didn't notice that the pomegranate tree in the yard shook weirdly, and there was a sound of "huh".
