The rain was pouring down, and pedestrians on the road were scrambling to get home. Only Xu Wanning answered the phone while holding an umbrella with one hand. On the other end of the phone is a customer who has been following for a week, the customer's surname is Zhuang, and he is engaged in construction work Xu. I thought it was a more cheerful boss, but I was asking messy questions every day and didn't pay for a long time. Xu Wanning thought that the customer was more careful, so she patiently explained to the customer, but as the questions asked by the customer became more and more strange, each time it became more and more excessive, and no matter how good Xu Wanning had such a good temper, she almost couldn't help but burst into foul language.

"No, sir, the situation you just said doesn't exist, I explained to you before, the scene you want to install does not have the conditions for this problem to occur."

"What if? Who can guarantee that there will be no problems, and you will pat your ass and leave, who will I go to. A hoarse male voice shouted on the other end of the phone.

"Sir, our family is a big company, if you have any questions, you can call our after-sales phone number to 999999999. And we will only implement this work if we give you a good plan, so don't worry about this kind of problem. Xu Wanning took a deep breath, thinking about how long it was still before the appointment with the little sister, she had been spinning for more than a month, thinking about going out to eat a delicious meal and relaxing, but she didn't expect another customer to come after work.

"Little girl, I'm responsible for myself and you, after all, I'm spending money, I'm sure I'll ask everything I want to ask clearly, I also want to buy, but I'm sure I'll ask clearly."

"Well, yes, we will deal with you if you have any questions. It's just that sir, I have something to do now, it's raining heavily, can we get in touch again tomorrow, I have to take a taxi home quickly. ”

"Oh, little girl, business is not like this, I am a customer, you should provide service to customers 24 hours a day. You are serving in this era, in the past, that is what you know! ”

"Boss, you've known about it for a week, and you make five or six calls every day from time to time, when did I not answer your phone, we can make it simpler."

Xu Wanning stretched out her hand to stop a taxi, thinking that today happened to be Xiaonan's birthday, and she hadn't gone out for a meal together for a long time, so she could just get together.

"No, I have to understand this matter clearly, you take a taxi to the teahouse at the bottom of our community now, let's understand this matter clearly."

"No, sir, can't you do it another day? I'm really going on today! Xu Wanning tried to make her voice louder than the rain, trying to let the other party know her embarrassment.

"No, it must be today, I still have a lot of questions, if you don't come today, I won't ask you to buy it, anyway, I know about it, I turn around and ask your colleague to buy it, I have to let your boss scold you." Hehe, come on, don't think I don't know you've been competing for the position of manager lately, your colleague has told me everything. And I'm not one or two, we're doing engineering, and there are seven or eight hundred units. There was a malicious laugh from the other side.

Xu Wanning wanted to cry without tears, hung up the phone, stomped her feet several times, and got into a car angrily.

The heavy rain was still falling, and Xu Wanning couldn't help but muttered in her heart as she watched the driver park his car in a remote residential area, and there has been a lot of news about disappearances on the Internet recently.

"Girl, you shouldn't live here!" The driver asked, poking his head back.

"It's not"

"This place has been on the news many times in J City because of the fake fight, you can pay attention to safety."

"Well, okay, I will, thank you, master." After Xu Wanning thanked the driver, she was about to open the car door and get out of the car, but she accidentally stepped into a puddle and the splash wet her trouser legs.

What a bad day today, she couldn't help but think.

...

"Jingshan Community, Building 4, a teahouse downstairs..."

Xu Wanning walked around the community according to the address given by the customer, but she didn't see a Building 4, and she couldn't help but get anxious. At this moment, a girl appeared in front of her, this girl was thin and tall, dressed in a white dress, with long hair hanging down on her chest, and was walking unhurriedly.

"Hello girl!"

Xu Wanning trotted a few steps to meet her, and then she saw that the girl's hair and clothes were soaking wet, although she was holding an umbrella, her body was still wet and dripping.

"Little girl, what's wrong with you?"

The girl raised her head slightly, revealing a delicate face, shook her head, and said in a faint voice:

"I'm fine."

"Well, do you know where Building 4 is? I've been looking for a long time and I haven't found it. ”

When she heard this, the girl bit her lower lip lightly and replied timidly:

"From here, go straight until you reach the end, then turn right again, there is a little bridge, and after crossing the bridge, you keep walking until you see an old shop selling alcohol, and then you turn left and you get there." ’

At this, she paused.

"Sister, it's better not to go, there are a lot of bad people in that building." raised his head and glanced at Xu Wanning, then lowered his head timidly and walked around Xu Wanning.

Xu Wanning frowned, listening to what the driver and the little girl said, she suddenly remembered what her college roommate said.

When you want to do something, but there are always inevitable problems that get in your way, then you must not do it, because God is reminding you that there is a hole ahead.

But the phone began to vibrate again at this time, and when I looked at it, it was my father who was inviting me to join the family group chat, and I didn't have to think about it, it must be about urging marriage. Xu Wanning simply hung up, instead of looking for a mutual torture she didn't like, it was better to take advantage of her youth to gain a firm foothold in the city, so she carried the bag on her shoulder and went to find her destination.

After a while, Xu Wanning saw an old shop with a very quaint decoration. If it's in a good location, it's a scenic spot. When approaching the tavern, Xu Wanning glanced inside through the rain, only to see that it was full of antique furniture, and at the front desk, there was a graceful woman sitting, who was carefully studying a book in her hand, Xu felt Xu Wanning's gaze, her eyelids were slightly raised, and Xu Wanning came to look at each other.

Xu Wanning has never been a nymphomaniac, but with just one glance, Xu Wanning suddenly understood that she was 'shocking'. Xu is other party was too amazing, and he was embarrassed to peek at being discovered, Xu Wanning quickly turned his head and hurriedly walked forward.

Just walked about a hundred meters, and sure enough, I saw a building with 'wanton' written on it, and the one facing the main road was the teahouse Xu Wanning was looking for today - 'Beauty Teahouse'.

A few bright big characters are hung on the door, and there are small colored lights flashing next to it, and there are posters with beautiful women in ancient costumes on the glass windows.

Walking into the store, the decoration inside can be described as luxurious, which is in huge contrast with the decoration on the storefront, and there are only a few customers sitting in the store, Xu Wanning thought to herself how such a small number of customers can support such a good decoration.

The customer who asked Xu Wanning to come was sitting by the window, and when he saw Xu Wanning coming, his wrinkled face suddenly covered with a smile, and he stretched out his hand and began to greet him.

"Xiao Xu, come here, here!"

When I got closer, I saw that the customer had changed his simple dress in the past, but today he was very dignified, and he wore several rings on his hand.

"Mr. Zhuang, you look very happy today."

The man waved his hand proudly and said, "Harm, I can't talk about happiness, it's just a little better than a few days ago." That being said, the smile on the man's face betrayed him completely.

"Well, Mr. Zhuang, do you still have any questions about that batch?"

"Xiao Xu, during this time, it's really because of this matter, I tossed you a lot and let you run here and there. However, my brother will not treat you badly, this batch of products, my brother will definitely buy it, not for anything else, just because you serve my brother so seriously and patiently, right? ”

"Mr. Zhuang, you are polite, it is appropriate to provide products and services for every customer who is interested in it." Xu Wanning only felt that the corners of her mouth were stiff when she said this, but she didn't know what this man was going to do, so she had to answer patiently.

"Xiao Xu, don't be polite to your brother, my brother was talking about a big project some time ago, and the tone is really bad. But ah, now that this project is down, it's not a big deal to earn a hundred Ws. ”

"Mr. Zhuang, I know your strength, if you order this batch, it will be a matter of minutes, I just happened to bring the contract, you can also book it first, so..."

Before Xu Wanning finished speaking, the man reached out and interrupted Xu Wanning's words, and he waved his hand.

"In this case, I will tell you the truth, and this contract can be signed today. But, you, you have to stay with me for one night tonight, and the deposit will arrive tomorrow morning. With that, he leaned back in his seat, his chin raised high, his eyes full of contempt, and he looked like he was in control.

Xu Wanning sneered, gritted her teeth and said: "Mr. Zhuang, not everyone can eat your food, it's a big deal that I work harder, I will spend less if I don't have money, in short, I really can't earn this money." ”

When the man heard this, he began to laugh.

"Effort? How much do you earn in a year? With me, you can earn a year's salary for a month! Who do you think told me about your private affairs? Let me tell you the truth, your boss has already sold you to me, and it's not a big company, and it is purely because the ancestral tomb is smoking when a small company can receive this kind of order! What kind of thing are you, to sleep with me is to give you a face! ”

"Mr. Zhuang, although I am a stinky part-time worker, if you buy it from me, I can indeed get a commission of tens of thousands, but I think it is not cost-effective to exchange tens of thousands of dollars for my lifelong nightmare. I'm afraid that I will dream back at midnight in the future, and I am afraid that I will not even be able to sleep when I think of your ugly face. "Pick up your bag and leave.

It's really not good to go out today, I didn't come if I knew it earlier, although I'm poor, but I still have requirements for appearance. Xu Wanning thought so.

"Don't be ignorant!" The man stretched out his hand full of rings and pointed at Xu Wanning viciously,

"Oh yes, to be honest, do you think I can get a lot, and you haven't worked before, and you don't know that the ultimate beneficiary is the boss? You might as well let your boss accompany you. ”

"Do you still want to do it! Wait a minute, let your boss fire you! The man gradually exposed his ugly face.

"Since I said so, then I'm not afraid to fire my squid!" I was annoyed by myself, so I picked up my bag and was about to leave, but I just walked to the door, but I saw two tall men blocking the exit, and I didn't know when the door of the store was closed.

"You, are you going to sin? Do you know what era it is? Xu Wanning picked up her mobile phone and was about to call the police, wanting to rush out, but she was firmly imprisoned. She struggled hard, desperately shouting for help, but under the confinement of the strong man, Xu Wanning couldn't move. When Xu Wanning kept shouting, a wet towel covered her mouth, and gradually, Xu Wanning only felt that her consciousness began to blur, only to see the man smiling and talking to the boss, and the boss tore up the contract in front of the man...

I don't know how long it took, a gentle girl came into my mind...

"Sister, sister, wake up, sister wake up..."She tried to open her eyes, but she only felt that her eyelids were extremely heavy, and her body was extremely stiff, she tried hard to move, but found that she couldn't use any part of her body except for her own consciousness.

She told herself that she couldn't sit still like this, that she must escape, that she must live.

"Sister, you have to keep running along the left road, keep running, run to that tavern to find the proprietress in that tavern, the bad guys don't dare to go to that tavern, wake up, sister, the bad guys are coming, hurry up! Hurry up! Hurry up, sister! ”

The voice of the last 'sister' was sharp and thin, as if it exploded in her ears, and Xu Wanning sat up violently.

She didn't bother to look around, jumped out of bed and ran out, as the girl said, all the way to the left. The long hallway was dark and eerie, and all I could hear was the sound of my own breathing and my feet on the floor. Suddenly, a shrill alarm sounded in the hallway, and the chaotic footsteps of a group of people were mixed in.

Xu Wanning couldn't be afraid, so she could only run forward with all her strength, the lights on both sides were getting darker and darker, but a wide open door slowly appeared in front of her. After running out, Xu Wanning gradually realized that something was wrong, it was obviously a wasteland in front of her, overgrown with weeds, and trees were also growing savagely. It's not like a scene in a big city at all, it's like a remote area, the scolding behind him is getting louder and louder, Xu Wanning had to grit his teeth and get into the depths of the woods, suddenly, a figure appeared ten meters before the intersection in front of him, the figure stood fixedly, stretched out his arm and pointed in a direction, Xu Wanning didn't have time to think about it and rushed directly to the direction he was pointing, when Xu Wanning felt that her whole body strength was about to be exhausted, she saw a little light in front of her, she walked over, That's when I saw the tavern I heard in my dream.。。

"Help, help, huhu..."Xu Wanning sat down on the ground after entering, she propped herself up, and continued to shout tentatively, is there anyone? But no one responded for a long time, and she slowly walked inside, still empty. Only then did she realize that she was wearing clothes that were obviously worn by people who needed surgery, and when she opened it, she was obviously naked.

Looking back, the scene just now, Xu Wanning only then came back to her senses, she didn't know if she was sold, but fortunately she ran out, otherwise she would really be finished. But all this is incredible, the person who spoke in the dream, and the person who showed the way just now, could it be related to the girl in the white dress? She felt that this was beyond her own cognition, and patted her head with her hand, trying to clear herself up.

In addition to worrying, she couldn't help but look at the environment she was in, where the furnishings and design styles were clamoring for a high price. Judging from the experience of life in the past twenty years, she really couldn't imagine why there was a tavern in the wilderness. Thinking like this, a painting hanging on the wall attracted Xu Wanning's attention. The painting is a piece of blood red, and when I look closer, I find that it is a sea of flowers, which leads to the distance and has no end in sight. When he got closer, he could still smell a faint fragrance of flowers, just when Xu Wanning thought it was the reason for the incense. A cold snort suddenly sounded in her ears, and she couldn't help but take a step back.

The leg accidentally touched the small bookshelf next to it, and a thick book fell from it, raising a layer of dust, Xu Wanning picked it up and patted the soil. The book looks very old, but it doesn't wrinkle. I guess I haven't seen it since I bought it, so I put it in the house to fall into the dust.

Xu Wanning casually opened a page, but found that the book was blank, she flipped through it a few times, and finally determined that the book really didn't have a word.

But when Xu Wanning didn't believe in evil and flipped around, on the book cover, the four big characters 'Huangquan Demon Spectrum' slowly appeared.

？

When Xu Wanning saw these words on the book cover, she was stunned, and she began to wonder if she was dazzled. She pondered for a moment, making sure that she hadn't seen the words just now, and wanted to put the strange book back in its place, but the book once again showed its magic.

It stuck to Xu Wanning's hand and couldn't take it off.

No way? I'm really not good to go out today, how can it be the same as acting in a TV series? This and this, this is out of line!

If Xu Wanning was afraid and scared before, then she is really speechless now. She shook her hand hard, trying to shake it off her hand, but the book didn't move. Suddenly, the book began to open page by page, and a line of words appeared on it.

'The Huangquan Demon Spectrum is an ancient genealogy written by herself before the six realms of the Houtu Niangniang incarnation, in order to record the spirits of the world. After the incarnation of the six realms, Tu Niang Niang has been sealed under the Yellow Spring. Now there is a fateful person, the Huangquan Demon is composed, and Wang'er shoulders the important task of balancing the Three Realms.

... I must have read it wrong, this is this novel, oh no, I shouldn't have woken up yet, I'm dreaming, hehe.

'No, you didn't, it's true' As if hearing what Xu Wanning said, the previous line of words disappeared immediately, and another line appeared.

...

'After completing this important task, I can send you home safely'

Home?! After Xu Wanning saw these words, her eyes widened, and she nodded heavily without thinking about it.

'Okay, the contract comes into effect'

'Mission Start'

After Xu Wanning saw this line of words, her body was shrouded in a burst of white light, and the whole person disappeared into the tavern along with the book...

After Xu Wanning disappeared, a figure appeared on the second floor of the tavern.
