Zhongzhou, Lingwa Store, Yundu Road.
The fire was spreading in the ceiling.
Originally, it was just a small flame.
But soon, it spread into a flame.
Li Bai, who initially thought he was hallucinating, gradually realized that something was not right about this.
After all, this illusion is too real.
"No, no way, this place is really on fire?!"
Suddenly, Li Bai seemed to understand why he could arrive at the Lingwa store at this time.
He carefully recalled his journey from Luo City back to Zhongzhou, and then to Yundu Road from Zhongzhou. Suddenly, Li Bai felt that every traffic light along the way had its own destiny!
Could it be that that person was just counting the time so that he could arrive, just in time to discover the fire in the store and put out the fire?
In an instant, a chill rushed from the soles of Li Bai's feet to Tianling Gai.
If this is really the case, then now I am...
Li Bai's eyes couldn't help but fall on the soul lamps in front of Yang Ning's desk.
I was just in a daze for a while, so I wouldn't have fallen into that situation, right?
"No, no, no! It won't happen!"
Li Bai comforted himself: "If he had calculated it well, then with his ability he would have been able to predict that I would regard the fire as an illusion!"
"So, this is definitely not calculated!"
"After all, how could he have made an oversight?!"
At this moment, Yang Ning, who was thousands of miles away on a flight to Tianxiang, held his chin with one hand and stared at the blond-haired and blue-eyed Western girl in the seat next to him without blinking.
At the same time, he said to himself: "Well, I calculated it, but I didn't expect you to be so determined. You would rather believe that you are blind than believe that my store can catch fire."
Yang Ning smiled and said, "Fate is such a wonderful thing, isn't it?"
"Tell me, why did you let me meet you? Little thing..."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pinched the cheek of the blond girl next to him.
He even came forward and took a deep breath, then sniffed.
"Huh? I heard that things like you usually have a fishy smell on your body. Why does it smell so good on you when you don't?"
The Western girl with blond hair and blue eyes looked aggrieved and timid. It seemed that she was suppressing the urge to cry, but she didn't dare to move.
...
Zhongzhou, in Lingwa's shop.
Several figures suddenly rushed past Li Bai and shouted at him: "Either put out the fire or get out! Why are you dazed?!"
Li Bai turned around and looked over, and saw Fangyuan, the store manager of the convenience store across the road, leading two clerks, one holding a fire extinguisher, and the other two carrying a washbasin filled with water, rushing in!
The three of them ran into the store and faced the flames on the ceiling. Fangyuan had just raised the fire extinguisher when two clerks, Xiaonan and Xiaobei, splashed all the water in the basin with a splash.
As a result, the fire was not put out, and all three of them were drowned.
Li Bai: "..."
Fang Yuan, who was holding the fire extinguisher, said, "You two go back, we don't need you two here."
Xiaonan and Xiaobei wiped the water on their faces, not knowing what they had done wrong, and left angrily.
Fang Yuan took the fire extinguisher and sprayed it wildly at the ceiling, quickly putting out the open flames.
Afterwards, he took a look around Yang Ning's store and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that only the ceiling was severely burned, while other places were basically undamaged.
However, Fangyuan, who had a very good eye, still noticed something unusual.
In front of Yang Ning's desk, among the row of cup-shaped candles with flickering flames, the flame of the first candle went out.
Turning around to look at Li Bai, who seemed to be still standing there in a daze, he saw that Li Bai was wearing a Taoist robe. Fang Yuan pointed at the extinguished first soul lamp and asked: "Well, Taoist priest, this thing doesn't light up. Is the problem serious?" "
Li Bai looked at the soul lamp, rubbed his numb face, and said, "The problem is very serious."
"But the seriousness of the problem won't be reflected here."
As he spoke, Li Bai stepped forward and placed the dragon scale, which was the size of an ordinary person's torso, on Yang Ning's desk.
Fangyuan looked at Li Bai's movements and asked: "What are you doing? Why do you put everything on the little boss's table? Let me tell you, the little boss is not an ordinary person, and he doesn't look down on ordinary things-"
"This is the dragon scale."
Li Bai looked at Fang Yuan and asked, "Can I put this thing away?"
Fangyuan: "..."
After swallowing, Fangyuan said: "I knew it. They all said that the dragon video in Longmen of Luo City was a special effect. As the little boss's neighbor, how can I not know whether that thing is a special effect?"
"As soon as I looked at the people in that video, I knew that even if the sky fell, it couldn't be special effects!"
Looking down, Fang Yuan stared at the dragon scales on the table and said, "Good guy, good guy..."
Li Bai said lightly: "Okay, it's time for you to go back and visit your store."
"Yes, yes! Look at the store, look at the store!"
Fangyuan said and hurriedly picked up the fire extinguisher and left.
After he left, Li Bai took out a piece of paper from his body. There were crooked words on it, with a lot of pinyin mixed in.
Following the instructions on the note, Li Bai opened a wooden box in the corner of Lingwa's shop, took out a new cup-shaped candle from the bedside, and placed it at the end of a row of soul lamps in front of the desk.
Then Li Bai made a fingerprint, made gestures, and lit the candle.
There was no movement at all on the candle.
Li Bai: "..."
He thought it was his fingerprint that was wrong, so he compared it carefully with the note and tried it again.
As a result, the soul lamp candle still had no reaction at all.
After reading the note carefully from beginning to end, Li Bai knew what the problem was.
The soul lamp was misplaced.
Take the new Soul Lamp candle to the wall behind the desk and place it at the end of the row of candles.
This time, Li Bai made gestures together again, and finally clicked on the soul lamp, Peng!
A black smoke flew out of the dragon scales on the desk and fell on the wick of the candle, and a small flame lit up immediately.
After confirming that there was nothing unusual about the flames, Li Bai raised his head and glanced at the ceiling above his head.
The open flame that had been extinguished now appeared again with a small flame.
Li Bai casually placed a few talismans in the store, and the flames on the ceiling were completely extinguished.
After that, Li Bai walked to the wind chime at the door, lit a small spirit child, and raised it to the wind chime at the door.
A black smoke flew out from the burning spirit baby and got into the wind chime.
It was the soul of the human trafficker Yang Ning met on the high-speed train to Los Angeles.
Originally, Yang Ning wanted to light up the trafficker, but considering that the trafficker also had a tragic experience of being trafficked in the same year, and had been tortured while alive, once the kindness in his heart showed up, he only accepted her soul.
After doing all this, Li Bai was ready to leave.
The moment he stepped out of the store, suddenly, bang!
He fell like a dog and ate shit.
Getting up, Li Bai glared angrily at the shrine of the Earth God who had been sent back outside Yang Ning's door.
However, the Earth God in the shrine was just lying on the ground, crossing his legs, eating ice cream, without even looking at him.
Li Bai knew why the landowner made things difficult for him.
Because I caused the ceiling in the store to catch fire!
He immediately said angrily: "Okay! You are the land, you are the boss!"
After speaking, the great poet dusted himself off, turned around and walked away.
After Li Bai left, about half an hour later, in the row of soul lamps in front of the desk in Lingwa's shop, the first extinguished soul lamp lit up again.
However, the figure deep in the flames has changed.
He is no longer the ferocious-looking old man, but has been replaced by a middle-aged man.
A soul that was also imprisoned in another soul lamp and was suffering, and should have been sent to the sky, Lorraine.
As for the original soul in Soul Lamp No. 1, it has disappeared.
...
