Zhang Yan's eyes twitched subconsciously when he saw the young man in brocade robes. In his memory, he had seen him from a distance downstairs of Hualou a few years ago and knew his name: Wu Qingling.
Is this a weasel giving New Year greetings to a chicken? Zhang Yan felt it was inappropriate. After all, in his eyes, he was not a chicken to be slaughtered, and Wu Qingling was not a ferocious monster that he could not withstand.
But it is inevitable that the other party will be uneasy and kind-hearted.
"Brother Zhang, we heard that your family opened a store selling chairs. Mr. Wu happened to hear that an elder in his family also had inconveniences, so we accompanied him to see if there were any suitable chairs. Brother Zhang , would you like to introduce Mr. Wu?"
Zhang Shun and Zhang Huiyuan next to them knew Xiao Chongwen and the others. Although one of them had died, their dislike for these three people was not less. He was about to go up and scold him, but Zhang Yan raised his hand to stop him.
"I didn't expect it to be Mr. Wu in person. I'm really disappointed. Please don't blame me." Zhang Yan responded with a smile, but did not look at Xiao Chongwen and the others. Although he lowered his attitude in his words, he could But his back was straight, and he said he was "missing the mark" but at this time he didn't even raise his hand.
It's now time, there's no need to act stupid in front of Wu Qingling. Zhang Yan wanted to see what the other party was going to do.
The clerk in the store was also a frequent visitor to the market. After a few glances, he recognized who Wu Qingling was, so he quickly went to his boss Zhang Shun's ear to tell her, and Zhang Huiyuan also listened. Only then did the two of them realize that the rather pale young man in front of them was actually Wu Qingling, the only son of the city administrator Wu Yuan, who had long been rumored to be the biggest playboy in Langyuan City! ?
The reputation of the bad boy is not just blown. It has a real deterrent effect for ordinary people like Zhang Shun and Zhang Huiyuan. The two of them were a little worried for a while, not knowing the purpose of the other party's coming.
Especially Zhang Shun, when he saw Xiao Chongwen and Wu Qingling coming all the way, his heart trembled fiercely, and he secretly guessed: The person behind Zhang Er's previous frame-up was Wu Qingling, right? !
Others were speculating in their minds, but Wu Qingling smiled and put her hands behind her back. Seeing that Zhang Yan was only dealing with a few polite words but didn't even bother to be polite to him, this attitude was basically obvious.
So Wu Qingling smiled and said: "Blame it? If I want to blame you, your little shop will be closed tomorrow. Do you believe it or not?"
Zhang Yan also smiled and said: "How can Mr. Wu's words be untrue in Langyuan City? The common people naturally believe it. However, the things in the shop are also solid and good. I think they should satisfy Mr. Wu."
"Haha, then tell me, I want to buy one for my elders who have limited legs and feet. Which one should I choose?" Wu Qingling said while looking at the calm Zhang Yan in front of him with a half-smile. The calm look on the other party's face made him feel more and more annoying the more he looked at it. But he didn't show it directly.
Zhang Yan casually took a trial chair nearby, pushed it in front of Wu Qingling, and said: "Young master, you can try this one. It is made of the finest green iron wood. It is not only strong and durable, but also light and flexible to use." ..."
Although he was introducing the chair in his hand, Zhang Yan's heart suddenly trembled because he smelled a special odor after Wu Qingling came in. It was a smell that did not belong to a living person.
But Wu Qingling is indeed a living person, and she is not possessed by a ghost. The only possibility is that when Ben followed Wu Qingling in, unclean things came into the store.
So Zhang Yan took advantage of explaining the wheelchair's opening to Wu Qingling, relaxed his perception to the maximum, and at the same time activated the "Yin Yang Pupil Technique" to make his vision appear both yin and yang. So he found a woman's face peeking into the room on the beam in the corner of the shop.
It was the adult-looking ghost that I had seen on the execution platform before.
After careful sensing, this time only one came, and the remaining ghost child that Zhang Yan had seen did not come. But Zhang Yan was a little strange. He had obviously placed many paper talismans around the Wu Mansion to serve as his eyes and ears. Why didn't he know in advance that the female ghost had left the Wu Mansion this time? Didn't you notice until the other person showed up?
In Zhang Yan's opinion, there are only two possibilities for this situation. One is that there is some kind of magic weapon that can accommodate the female ghost. Taking it out of the Wu Mansion avoided the superficial surveillance of the paper talisman, and Zhang Yan was not able to know about it in advance.
Another possibility is possession. By attaching itself to a living person and covering one's evil aura, one can also avoid the induction of the Paper Man Talisman. However, this method generally has a huge drawback, which is that it will cause damage to the possessed person. And the longer the possession time, the greater the damage.
Regarding the former possibility, Zhang Yan no longer dares to be as sure as before. After all, he discovered the existence of suspected ghost cultivators during the previous battle at the mass grave in Langyuan City, and he can no longer say with certainty that there is a ghost cultivator in this world. Without other monks besides him, it is difficult to say whether the instrument must not exist.
But even if there is a magic weapon, it is not something that the Wu family can use. Because the Wu family went in and out of the mansion, a peek at the paper talisman never revealed the aura of any monk.
And the female ghost is not a ghost cultivator, and she cannot open the magic weapon to live on her own.
Therefore, Zhang Yan quickly dismissed the possibility of relying on the magic weapon to hide the female ghost from the surveillance of the paper talisman. The possibility is too low.
The only thing left is possession.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yan felt confident. But he was a little curious about the man who possessed a ghost and used it as a vehicle. If this continues, the average person will probably fall ill or even become insane within a few days. The secrets of the Wu family are hard to hide. Can we use this as a breakthrough to explore inside the Wu family?
Zhang Yan was thinking in his mind, but he didn't delay at all with his words. Compared with the clerk in the store, he introduced wheelchairs just as well, and he spoke eloquently as if he specialized in this.
In the end, Wu Qingling actually bought a wheelchair, and also ordered an embroidered satin set. A large bill of money was still on the cash register, and he waved it off without even asking for change.
But before leaving, he seemed to suddenly remember something. He turned to Zhang Yan and said, "Your business seems pretty good now. Do you want to start it? Make it a big business spread across ten cities? Don't do it." Answer me in a hurry, think about it slowly, and when you figure it out, just come to the money shop and see me, I will pay for it and give you 50% of the contribution!"
Wu Qingling turned around and left without waiting for Zhang Yan to answer. Xiao Chongwen and three others followed him out, and another entourage came in and took away the wheelchair bought by Wu Qingling. Zhang Yan also arrived at the door. He first looked around at the entourage behind Wu Qingling, but found no one who looked sick as he thought.
So Zhang Yan threw a paper talisman out without leaving any trace, and it floated far above his head like the wind, following Wu Qingling and the female ghost.
