When we got back to the city, we asked Lu Fei and Wang Zijun to buy roast chicken and Lao Bai Fen and send them to Yangxian Temple in Gui Village. We also asked them to see if Wang Qinglan and her son needed any help. After all, it must be difficult to arrange a funeral for an orphan and a widow.
After Shen Bing used glutinous rice flour on her stomach, the pain was gone. Ma Yunxi whispered to me that the decaying momentum had also stopped, which made me feel relieved.
Then he called Chen Gulong and told him that he had suddenly figured it out and wanted to meet with Mr. Zhang.
The boy was extremely happy and said to me on the phone: "You don't help people with things, how come you figured it out?"
"Isn't it all for your safety?" I said unhappily.
"Hey, brother, I appreciate it. I'll treat you to dinner at Jiangnanchun later. By the way, I heard you say this morning that you don't help others. What does that mean? You said it two or three times, but I just realized it now."
"Because I only help ghosts, understand?"
"Well… "
Chen Gulong came to pick me up in person. When Qu Mo saw that Wang Zijun and Lu Fei had not returned, she wanted to follow me. I thought that nothing would happen in broad daylight, so I asked her and Ma Yunxi to watch over Shen Bing.
We arrived at Guiren Group and entered the CEO's office. Wow, it was so grand. The office was so big that it could only be described as huge. Compared with this one, Chen Gulong's office was like a rat hole.
Tao Yiyi was sitting with a middle-aged man, and that man was Shar Pei.
They all stood up, except for a middle-aged man with a dignified face and a slightly plump figure sitting behind a curved desk. He did not move, but just asked with a smile: "Are you Mr. Xi?"
I nodded slightly and said, "Yes, Xifeng, Xiaolong and I are comrades-in-arms."
"My name is Zhang Dachuan, and I'm the general manager of Guiren Group. You can call me Mr. Zhang. Please take a seat!" The man said as he waved his hand and made a gesture of invitation. His tone and expression revealed a confident and domineering attitude.
"Mr. Xi, let me introduce you to this Mr. Sha..." Tao Yiyi, with a Band-Aid on her forehead, pointed at the Shar-Pei dog and introduced it to me.
Before she could finish, I sneered at Shar Pei and said, "We are old acquaintances."
The Shar Pei dog also laughed and said, "Yes, we have met in Gui Village. I admire Mr. Xi's Taoist skills very much."
"Zixia" is a self-proclaimed name in the old days, especially for people in the underworld. But now it is a different era, this self-proclaimed name is almost extinct. I didn't expect this Shar Pei dog to be quite traditional and talk to me as a underworld person. Shar Pei dog, even if you call yourself a grandson, my buddies will not have a good impression of you.
My face darkened: "Thank you." Then I sat down.
"I don't need to say more about what happened last night." As soon as Mr. Zhang started talking, Shar Pei, Tao Yiyi, and Chen Gulong all shut up and turned their eyes away. But Mr. Zhang's eyes fell on my face and he said, "I think Gulong has already explained the reason why I asked you to come this morning. Originally, Mr. Sha has been in charge of helping in this regard, but considering that the paranormal case last night was quite special, Mr. Sha's strength is a bit weak, so we need Mr. Xi's full help."
The words were quite polite. Such a wealthy and powerful group boss was willing to ask for help from a buddy, which was very respectful. However, everyone should not ignore one point. No matter how much money you have or how high your position is, there are two types of people they rely on the most: doctors and fortune tellers.
I smiled and said, "I'm a country boy, I like to be straightforward. Mr. Zhang, please tell me what you need me to do."
Mr. Zhang nodded, and he seemed quite satisfied with me. He turned his attention to the Shar Pei dog and said, "I am a layman in this area. Mr. Shar Pei, you should talk about it."
The Shar Pei responded, and then said solemnly: "Gu Long and Yi Yi have followed Mr. Zhang for so long, they are not outsiders, so I will tell you the truth about what I found last night."
"The female corpse last night was not simply a corpse transformation. Someone deliberately used evil magic to transform the corpse into a horrible zombie!"
When he said this, Chen Gulong and Tao Yiyi cried out at the same time, and fear flashed across their faces. But Mr. Zhang just frowned, and it seemed that Shar Pei had already reported it to him clearly.
I wondered if the Shar Pei deliberately mistook the walking corpse for a zombie, or if he really didn't know. I stared at him with a very suspicious look.
The Shar Pei was like a good storyteller. He stopped talking when he heard their exclamations, and then paused before continuing, "Zombies aren't the scariest thing. What's scarier is that this zombie has been given an evil drug-like drug that turns it into an immortal King Kong. If it weren't for Mr. Xi's quick thinking and using electric shock to deal with it, I think this zombie would have destroyed this 13-story building, and no one in the building would have been able to walk out alive!"
Chen Gulong and Tao Yiyi opened their mouths wide, as if each of them was holding an extra-large eggplant in their mouths.
I thought to myself that if this person wasn't a life and death expert, he would be better than me if he could guess this from the corpse's behavior. But my buddy didn't believe it, he was a good person!
The Shar Pei dog saw that I looked calm and seemed a little disappointed, but he continued, "I told you the reason why zombies are formed so that you can understand that corpses don't turn into this on their own, but someone casts a spell behind the scenes. I told Mr. Zhang about this idea last night. The haunting of the subsidiary is just the beginning. It is a warning to Mr. Zhang. If Mr. Zhang doesn't compromise, there will be more weird things happening in the head office similar to or even worse than last night."
This time he seemed to have finished speaking and turned his gaze to Mr. Zhang.
Chen Gulong gave a thumbs up and said, "Great! That's how Brother Feng deduced it. You two really think alike!"
After hearing this, the Shar Pei looked at me with a sudden bitter face, like a pug that has lost the favor of its owner.
Mr. Zhang picked up a cigar and lit it. Tao Yiyi walked to the table and picked up a match to light it for him. No wonder this girl became a senior executive. This kind of cleverness to please the boss is not something that ordinary people can do. Mr. Zhang took a puff of the cigar and said to me: "Mr. Sha has explained the matter very thoroughly. You should also know that someone wants to seize Guiren's assets and deliberately killed my brother and then tormented his ghost." As he said this, his eyebrows were furrowed and he took another puff of the cigarette.
To be honest, I really dislike this kind of half-sentence expression, but this may be an inherent way of speaking as a leader, so I said: "If you need my help, just tell me directly. I have urgent matters to attend to when I get back."
Chen Gulong, Shar Pei and Tao Yiyi all widened their eyes when they heard what I said, as if we, the common people, cannot interrupt the leader before he has finished speaking. How could they say that they have urgent matters? Could they be more urgent than the leader
I pretended not to see it and looked up at the ceiling. That's your leader, to me, he's nothing.
Mr. Zhang was also choked by my words and coughed several times, then he said: "Mr. Sha needs an assistant, just listen to his instructions, as for the price, just name it, as long as it is within my acceptable range..."
I stood up suddenly and jumped towards the door, saying as I jumped: "Sorry, I have to go now. We can talk again some other time!"
