The man was a little fat and had a big belly.
He was standing at the door of my apartment, looking anxious and distressed. He seemed to want to knock but didn't dare.
For a moment, I couldn't be sure whether the man standing at the door was a human or a ghost.
But it was not even midnight yet, so it was impossible for a ghost to come to my house. And the crow's tears that I had applied to my eyelids had already lost their effect.
Hearing footsteps, the man slowly turned around.
When he saw me carrying the cloth bag, he didn't say anything, probably thinking I was the resident upstairs.
"What are you doing standing here? Sneaky!"
I stopped and said in a deep voice.
The man quickly forced a smile on his face, waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay... I'm here to look for someone! He's not here, I'll wait."
I was so close to the man that I could already confirm that he was a human, not a ghost.
Ghosts always carry a cold and sinister aura. Not to mention me who has some good karma now, even ordinary people can sense the ghost's aura if they are close to it.
Of course, if you encounter a ghost that is extremely powerful and can hide its ghostly aura, it would not be easy to sense the ghostly aura.
"Looking for someone? Who are you looking for?"
I asked again.
But the man seemed very impatient with my question.
His smiling face immediately drooped, and he said in a cold voice: "I just came here to look for someone, what does it have to do with you! If you want to go upstairs, go upstairs, I don't have time to talk to you."
At this time, the man's style has already been revealed.
I also found that he was wearing famous brands, including a Rolex watch worth a lot of money. The Buddha statue on his neck was made of jade. He looked very wealthy, but I'm afraid his big belly must have a lot of money.
"snort!"
I snorted coldly and said unhappily, "You looking for someone has nothing to do with me, but you are standing at my door looking for someone, do you think it has anything to do with me?"
After hearing what I said, the man didn't react at first, but when he saw my serious look, he realized something belatedly.
After a while, he looked at me in surprise and asked
"What did you say? You said you are the owner of this apartment?"
I shrugged and rolled my eyes at him.
Then I took the key out of my pocket and opened the door.
When the door opened, the man's eyes widened and he muttered, "No, no... My friend told me that Master Jiang was an old man, how come he has become a young man now?"
"No, no..."
Seeing me opening the door and about to enter the house, the man quickly reached out and grabbed my arm.
A smile appeared on his face again, and he said with a smile: "Little brother, please don't mind it. I was offended just now. I was really upset and in a bad mood, so my attitude just now was a little rude!"
I stood there and listened to what the man had to say.
At this time, the man asked me suspiciously, "I wonder if you know Jiang Jiuzhen, little brother?"
Damn it, I can understand that ghosts are looking for Jiang Jiuzhen. But now someone is looking for Jiang Jiuzhen.
I didn't answer the man directly.
I asked him unhappily, "Why, do you have something to do with Jiang Jiuzhen?"
Seeing me asking this, the man seemed a little embarrassed. However, after he looked at the apartment number, he sighed and said, "Yes, little brother, I did have something to ask Master Jiang. I suspect my wife has killed someone!"
The man’s words surprised me greatly.
But I curled my lips and said, "Your wife killed someone, you should call the police. How did you find me here? Let me tell you, this is not a police station."
Seeing that I had misunderstood, the man came closer to me and whispered to me, "No, no... Brother, it's not what you think. I suspect that my wife used ghosts to kill someone."
I slowly frowned.
If what the man said is correct, then I really have to take care of it. After all, there is no difference between helping ghosts and helping people get rid of ghosts.
Besides, the pot-bellied man in front of him probably doesn't seem to be short of money.
Seeing that I frowned and seemed to be thinking about something, the man said anxiously: "Little brother, is there a person named Jiang Jiuzhen in your apartment? I'm looking for Jiang Da
The master really wants to exorcise ghosts!"
Although the man said that his wife controlled ghosts to kill people, I can't believe it completely.
Now the man asked me if I knew Jiang Jiuzhen. Obviously, he knew Jiang Jiuzhen. In order not to be exposed, I asked tentatively, "Since you don't know Jiang Jiuzhen, how did you find this place?"
When the man saw that I didn't answer him, his face drooped again.
He said angrily: "Little brother, this is urgent. If you know where Jiang Jiuzhen is, tell me. I will thank you!"
Having said this, the man actually took out a stack of RMB from his bag.
The RMB is very new and probably looks like it's worth several thousand yuan.
Seeing me looking at the money in his hand, the man smiled and said, "Well, little brother, if you tell me where Master Jiang is, I'll give you 10,000 yuan! How about that? I beg you!"
A rich man is a rich man, he will ask for money as soon as he comes up.
But just for asking a question, ten thousand yuan is already a lot.
But I am not someone who can be easily bought by money.
I shook my head and said to the man coldly: "I don't want your money, I want to know how you found this place?"
Seeing that I was not moved, the man's face darkened for a moment.
He was unhappy, but fortunately he still said it.
"It's like this. I have a friend who got help from Master Jiang a few years ago. He gave me his address. He said that Master Jiang is very good at removing dirt, so I came to him."
So that's how it is.
I nodded and thought to myself, "Since he hasn't met Jiang Jiuzhen, it will be easy."
But he said his friend had seen Jiang Jiuzhen, which put me in a difficult position. What if I went to help pretend to be Jiang Jiuzhen and was recognized by his friend? Then I would lose more than I gain.
So after thinking about it, I decided to directly pretend to be Jiang Jiuzhen's apprentice.
Thinking of this, I looked up at the man and said loudly, "My master is not here. He has been out for a long time. I am his apprentice. If you have anything to say, just tell me."
"Master Jiang's disciple?"
The man stared at me in surprise, his eyes flickering, obviously not believing what I said.
I didn't say anything, just stared at him.
Anyway, I am not short of money now. If he is not in a hurry,
You can leave. Of course, I am not the kind of person who would stand by and watch someone die without helping. As far as I know, there are still many Taoist priests in the city who can catch ghosts.
As the saying goes, money speaks louder than words! I think it wouldn't be difficult for a man to find another Taoist priest.
"Yes, I am Master Jiang's apprentice. My name is Yang Tianyi! My master is not here. If you want to ask him for help, you may have to wait for some time."
A look of disappointment appeared on the man's face, but he quickly changed his mind.
He stared at me and asked in a low voice, "Since Master Jiang is not here, then... little brother, do you know how to catch ghosts?"
It seems that he is really anxious about the man’s matter!
I nodded and said, "I can catch ghosts, but it depends on what kind of ghost it is. After all, my skills are not high. If I encounter that kind of vicious ghost, I won't be able to deal with it."
However, the man still looked excited when he heard what I said.
He shook his head and said, "It's not an evil ghost, it's not an evil ghost, it's just a ghost that kills people. Since you are Master Jiang's apprentice, you should have no problem dealing with ghosts that harm people!"
He thinks highly of me.
I made way for the door and said in a deep voice, "Okay, come in first! It's not convenient to talk at the door, let's talk inside."
"good!"
The man walked into my apartment with a gloomy look on his face.
After entering my apartment, he apologized to me, "Brother Yang, I'm really sorry for what happened just now. I was offended. I was really scared by my wife's recent behavior!"
Then, I leaned on the sofa and the man sat on the chair opposite. He started chatting with me and told me everything that happened in his house and about a girl named Xiaofei.
The girl named Xiaofei is the man’s lover.
I also know the man’s name, his name is Shan Daye, and his wife’s name is Yan Huanhuan.
Here’s what’s going on:
Originally Shan Daye and his wife Yan Huanhuan were a very harmonious couple, but ever since Yan Huanhuan found out that Shan Daye had a new love outside, Yan Huanhuan became a completely different person.
Her attitude towards good deeds took a 180-degree turn.
Once, when Shan Daye was sleeping at night, Yan Huanhuan actually poured water from the bathroom onto Shan Daye while he was sleeping.
It was in a terrible state.
Moreover, after Yan Huanhuan learned about Shan Daye's affairs, she stopped communicating with Shan Daye and became silent.
Although they are husband and wife in name, they are no longer husband and wife in reality.
Shan Daye said that he had not slept in the same bed with Yan Huanhuan for more than half a year.
Yan Huanhuan was only in her thirties, her face was well maintained, and her figure made many men crazy. But it was this woman that Shan Daye could neither touch nor hate.
Shan Daye complained to me bitterly that he loved his wife Yan Huanhuan, and that he had another woman outside because of a momentary confusion. And since Yan Huanhuan knew about his affairs, he had no contact with the mistress again.
But Yan Huanhuan refused to give in and refused to divorce him, but instead tortured him mentally.
This made Shan Daye suffer terribly.
Shan Daye proposed divorce to Yan Huanhuan, but Yan Huanhuan threatened to commit suicide, saying that if they divorced, Shan Daye would be ruined and his company would go bankrupt.
Shan Daye had no choice but to move out of the house.
Because he had been living outside and lacked the care of women, Shan Daye got together with the girl named Xiao Fei again. The girl named Xiao Fei even got pregnant with Shan Daye's child.
Later, Shan Daye found out that the pregnancy story was made up by Xiao Fei to lie to him.
However, when he learned that his lover Xiao Fei was pregnant with his child, Shan Daye still looked embarrassed.
On the one hand, Shan Daye's lover was pressuring him to divorce his wife as soon as possible.
On the other hand, Shan Daye also had to consider his own company, so things kept getting delayed.
What Shan Daye didn't expect was that just one day ago, his lover Xiao Fei suddenly died at home.
Xiaofei lives in a high-end residential area, which was purchased for her by Shan Daye.
That night, Shan Daye went to see his lover and found Xiao Fei dead in the bedroom.
The girl named Xiao Fei stood straight, her face was gloomy, her pupils were dilated, and her eyes were staring at the white ceiling.
What surprised Shan Daye the most was that he did not find any signs of being harmed on his lover Xiao Fei's body. But his lover Xiao Fei was dead, and her body was already cold!
