Chapter 43: The Bodyguard
I lived there in Tanyue for almost two months, and every day I slept and ate, and my bones hurt all over my body. I have asked Tan Yue more than once: "When will there be a business?" ”
He told me directly: "It's hard to say, if you really have nothing to do, just set up a stall again and go to the fortune telling!" ”
I didn't think I could communicate with him normally, so I just found something to do for myself. I'll go to Wang Zhongcheng for trouble if I'm fine, if it weren't for his family to Tang Xiangwan to come forward and make peace, I could drive him crazy alive.
Fortunately, after cleaning up Wang Zhongcheng, Tang Xiangwan also arranged business for me.
After Tang Xiangwan handed me a photo, I couldn't help but be stunned: "Isn't this the TV star Shen Ningmeng?" Is she an employer? ”
Shen Ningmeng is definitely a goddess-level beauty in today's words. I'm idle these days, and I've watched a lot of TV series she acts. Unexpectedly, the first business was related to a big beauty.
Tang Xiangwan shook his head and said, "She is not an employer, but the target of your mission to protect her, to ensure that she will not be harassed by ghosts." ”
Tan Yue was stunned for a moment: "Target? You asked me to be a bodyguard? I have no experience as a bodyguard. ”
"There's no way around it." Tang Xiangwan shook his head and said, "The employer of this mission has a very deep background. If it weren't for the fear of causing unnecessary trouble to Shen Ningmeng, it would be much safer for him to arrange the manpower in person than for the Human Hall to take over the business. ”
"I also thought twice about sending the two of you on a mission this time. In addition to your own strength, more importantly, you are all newcomers, and you are not well-known in the Dao or the local area, and of course you will not bring any trouble to Shen Ningmeng. ”
I can understand Tang Xiangwan's concerns. Shen Ningmeng is a public figure after all, and if the news of her ghost hits comes out, it will definitely cause her a lot of trouble. If there are really two well-known local masters around them, it will be tantamount to not recruiting themselves. Let me and Tanyue accept the task, just right.
I nodded, "I've taken this task." ”
"Good!" Tang Xiangwan said with a pleasant face: "In this mission, in addition to being low-key and low-key, you must pay attention, you can't let Shen Ningmeng know that she has hit an evil spirit, and you must do everything possible to resolve her doubts." ”
"Understood."
After Tan Yue nodded, Tang Xiangwan added: "This mission, Li Xian is the main one, and listen to his opinions on everything." ”
"Him?" When Tan Yue looked at me, I could only smile and say, "Sister Tang knows a lot about Panshan Eagle!" ”
Tang Xiangwan smiled and said, "I know all the sects of the Dao of Arts. If you need information, I can sell it to you at a discount. ”
"Stingy!"
I said this, but I knew in my heart that if Tang Xiangwan didn't have a warlock who had inherited the old dart game, I would be the most suitable candidate to be a bodyguard.
Between the bandits and the dart master, it can be said that they are both friends and foes. are friends who can be unimpeded on the territory of bandits; It's the enemy, then it depends on whose wrist is harder.
In the dart game in ancient times, there must be a few dart masters who can break the evil arts, and to deal with this kind of person, it is natural to be a mountain eagle. Therefore, the dart master knows everything about it, but when it comes to using it, it is not as skilled as the dart master.
Tang Xiangwan smiled: "Thank you for complimenting me, however, I prefer to be called a vampire." If there is nothing to do, just prepare and go to see Shen Ningmeng tomorrow morning. ”
When I got up, a flash of inspiration flashed in my head: "You also sell information, right?" I want to find out, twenty years ago, who used a secret method to save a dead child near Lijia Village? ”
"It's too long to check!" Tang Xiangwan frowned and said, "This takes time, and the price is not low." However, you can pay in installments with three cents interest. ”
"You're a good vampire!" After complimenting Tang Xiangwan, I left Baiwei Zhai.
The next day, I met Shen Ningmeng as promised, she looked more beautiful than on TV, but she didn't like to talk very much, just nodded to me and said hello.
Aunt Liu, the agent who followed Shen Ningmeng, looked me up and down, and said arrogantly: "The most important thing to follow Miss Shen is to understand the rules. I have a rule here, you take it and memorize it, and if you violate one of them, you will be careful to deduct your wages. And ......"
Aunt Liu pointed to the ribs beside me: "Your broken dog, hurry up and take it away, it will be dirty when you look at it." You memorize the rules first. ”
I took the booklet in her hand, raised my hand and threw it at my feet: "Lao Tzu tells you that I came here to work, but I am not here to be a slave for you." If you want a slave, you go back to the Qing Dynasty to be the queen mother! ”
Aunt Liu's face suddenly turned pale: "What kind of attitude do you have?" I'm going to complain to your boss! ”
"Go! I can't wait! ”
"You, you ......" Aunt Liu was so angry that she didn't say anything for a long time.
Shen Ningmeng frowned: "Aunt Liu, forget it, after all, it was the person he introduced, don't go too far." ”
Shen Ningmeng said to me again: "Mr. Li, although we can't force you to do anything, please pay attention to your professional ethics. ”
I replied nonchalantly: "I know the depth, you can rest assured of this." ”
"That's good." Shen Ningmeng nodded lightly, but that Aunt Liu glared at me fiercely.
I followed the two of them to the set without any care. Shen Ningmeng was filming another TV series at that time, in which she played a female bandit leader.
When we arrived on the set, the director was picking a dog, and it was said that Shen Ningmeng in the script brought a wolf.
As soon as I entered the set with the ribs, more than 20 dogs in it exploded and barked at the ribs like crazy. The ribs were annoyed by the other party, so they simply lowered their heads and roared from their throats, and more than 20 dogs all wilted at once, shrunk in the corner with their tails between them, and didn't dare to make a sound.
The director's eyes suddenly lit up: "The one over there, bring your dog over there to take a look!" ”
The ribs stood up and glanced at the director with disdain, but he didn't expect to see the director excited.
After the ribs were raised by Tan Yue for two months, not only did they lose their original weak appearance, but their fur was as smooth as satin, and they could still see obvious cyan in the sun. Especially the kind of fierceness on the ribs, it is not a characteristic that ordinary wild wolves can compare.
The director grabbed the camera and repeatedly slapped the ribs twice: "Okay, good...... This is the blue wolf in my mind! This is your dog, young man, right? Obedient or not? ”
"It's okay, it's just not very friendly to the living. Also, it doesn't bark and is a dumb dog. "I say this for my purpose. If the director takes a fancy to the ribs, I can justifiably place it next to Shen Ningmeng, which is equivalent to adding another layer of insurance to her.
"That's even better! Not calling is more conducive to dubbing. The director was even more satisfied: "Notify the field staff, the dog doesn't need to be chosen, it's it." ”
I patted the ribs' head, pointed at Shen Ningmeng and said, "Go over, follow her." ”
The ribs obediently came to Shen Ningmeng's side, Shen Ningmeng was so frightened by the ribs that he took two steps back, and it took a long time before he reached out and touched the ribs with the encouragement of the director. Ribs simply stretched out his paws and shook her hand.
I have to say that the guy with pork ribs is very likable, and he got acquainted with Shen Ningmeng after a while, and Shen Ningmeng took it with him wherever he went.
Tan Yue and I have been standing on the set watching Shen Ningmeng filming. The part she filmed was the siege of the cottage of the female bandit leader, and she wanted to lead the troops into battle, but she was relieved not to be paralyzed in bed and her childhood sweetheart's lover, and said goodbye to her lover before going into battle.
The plot looks very simple, but Shen Ningmeng can't get into the state, and after being stopped by the director one after another, the director is also a little impatient: "Ningmeng, you take a rest first, find out the feeling, and we'll shoot later." ”
Shen Ningmeng didn't say anything, but Aunt Liu was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot: "Ningmeng, what a simple play, why can't you get into the play?" Wouldn't you just treat that man for him? ”
Shen Ningmeng said softly, "Let me rest for a while, okay?" ”
"Okay, you rest......" Aunt Liu didn't dare to do anything to Shen Ningmeng, but sprinkled the fire on the ribs: "It must be this broken dog that scared Ning Meng, who is over there, hurry up and take your broken dog away!" ”
"Aunt Liu, don't go too far! Ribs, come to me. Shen Ningmeng finally became popular.
Aunt Liu was so disciplined by her that she didn't dare to speak.
Tan Yue smiled coldly and whispered to me, "You say, how could she play abnormally?" ”
I didn't even think about it: "There's something wrong with the script." ”
