Ten minutes later, the Black and White Impermanence appeared obediently and sat on the sofa, while Jing Yi leaned silently opposite him, with his injured leg resting on Li Wenzhao’s knee, quietly waiting for the dressing to be changed.
“Well, cough.” Bai Wuchang looked at the talisman beside Jing Yi with fear, “Can you put that thing away for a while?”
“Hmm, the distance is too close,” Hei Wuchang sniffed and agreed, “I can’t stand it either.”
Ghosts with official positions are still ghosts; how can they bear the Buddha’s shining light?
It was the first time that Li Wenzhao met these two legendary figures. After the initial surprise wore off, he was left with only a strong sense of vigilance.
When a ghost comes to your door, it’s not good. Although these two people are more humble and low-key than each other, no one knows what they are thinking in private.
Maybe… they are here to take Jingyi away?
Thinking of this, Li Wenzhao picked up the talisman with an expressionless face and hung it directly around Jingyi’s neck.
“Ahhhhhh…”
The Black and White Impermanence immediately performed a windless movement. With a whoosh, they were flung away and disappeared as meteors in the sky.
Jing Yi: “…”Wow.
Li Wenzhao: “…”
The money was not spent in vain, and the talisman was not sought in vain.
Ten minutes later, two desolate figures appeared outside the window again. “We really have something to do. Can we put that thing away first?”
Hei Wuchang nodded: “Yeah, yeah, we’ll leave after that.”
Li Wenzhao’s frown eased a little, and he moved his hands, turned the talisman around, and stuffed it into the back of Jingyi’s neck.
The neck is Jingyi’s sensitive area, and it twists into a knot when touched: “Giggle, giggle, giggle, itchy…”
Li Wenzhao had just stuffed the talisman in when Jing Yi moved uncomfortably: “Oh, it’s stuck in my neck.”
“…” Li Wenzhao raised his hand and loosened it a little.
Jing Yi turned his head and looked out the window: “Is this okay?”
Hei Wuchang carefully walked through the glass, tiptoed to the sofa, and when the spell didn’t take effect, he smiled and said, “Hehe, okay.”
Jing Yi poked his head in and asked, “Are you looking for me?”
“Yeah.” Hei Wuchang rubbed his hands and said, “It’s just a small matter. I need your cooperation.”
Jing Yi narrowed his eyes warily: “Do you still have anything to ask of me?”
What’s going on? Did you find out that he was born in the wrong family and want to take him back?
As soon as he had this thought, Jing Yi felt the hand holding his ankle tighten.
Jing Yi’s heart immediately began to beat faster.
“That’s right.” Bai Wuchang walked in, looking embarrassed. “The underworld has been cracking down on performance recently. The wrong soul or wrong birth is linked to the year-end bonus.”
Jing Yi’s face was tense, and he grabbed Li Wenzhao’s arm: “I won’t leave.”
Li Wenzhao’s breathing paused for a moment, and his chest seemed to be surging with raging waves. His uneasy guess was almost confirmed. Faced with this power beyond technology, he felt powerless and couldn’t help but move the talisman on Jingyi’s neck.
“No, no, no, that’s not what we meant!!” Hei Wuchang stretched out Erkang’s hand in horror.
Bai Wuchang also immediately explained: “Whether to leave or not is up to you to decide.”
Jing Yi and Li Wenzhao relaxed visibly.
“Then what do you want from me?”
“We need you to issue a letter of understanding.” Bai Wuchang waved his sleeves lightly, and a piece of paper with a black aura floated out. “Jingyi, please help me and sign it. We will leave right away.”
Jing Yi lowered his eyes and scanned the contents on the paper. The writing style was somewhat ancient, but he could still understand the general meaning. Just like Bai Wuchang said, this was just an ordinary letter of understanding.
Perhaps because of the frequent incidents of taking away the wrong souls, resulting in the deaths of many innocent people, the underworld has also learned to use the attendance and performance appraisal system. The Black and White Impermanence are experts in taking away souls and catching ghosts, and they are obviously the first to be affected.
I don’t know if they got anything from their superiors in the underworld, but the two of them looked embarrassed, as if they were trying to please.
Jing Yi and Li Wenzhao looked at each other and saw deep calculation in each other’s eyes.
What a great opportunity! The Black and White Impermanence have come to their doorstep. If they don’t seize the opportunity to get some benefits, they would be unworthy of their businessmen.
A cold wind seemed to blow through the room with closed doors and windows.
The two impermanences shuddered.
Hei Wuchang seemed to have sensed something from the look between Jing Yi and Li Wenzhao, and asked nervously, “Why do I suddenly have a bad feeling?”
Bai Wuchang shrank his neck and said, “Nothing will happen, right?”
Jing Yi said gently: “Don’t worry, something must have happened.”
Impermanence x2: “…”
Jing Yi added: “My hand is injured, so I can’t sign for the time being.”
Hei Wuchang glared: “You were moving around like a loach just now!”
“I was scared by you guys.” Jing Yi turned his head to the bear ghost, “Is it not okay?”
The two ghosts were speechless: “…”
I’ve heard of “scamming people” but I’ve never heard of “scamming people with ghosts”. This is really eye-opening.
But they were mentally prepared.
I realized how difficult it was to mess with Jing Yi the first time we met. Now that he has found a backer and is wearing a talisman, he is not so easy to control.
Without paying a price, you will definitely not get the letter of forgiveness back.
Bai Wuchang: “What do you want?”
Jing Yi: “I haven’t thought about it yet.”
“…”
Hei Wuchang: “How about we give you some more money?”
Jing Yi was curious: “Are you the boy who distributes money?”
Black Impermanence: “No.”
“No, I don’t want that either.” Jing Yi shook his head in distress: “We are so rich now that we can’t spend it all in our lifetime.”
Bai Wuchang: “…”
He frowned and stared at Jing Yi for a while, “You can’t just waste time like this, humans and ghosts are on different paths, it won’t be good for you to stay with us for a long time.”
Jing Yi was indeed stunned.
Bai Wuchang smiled: “So, we can solve this problem in a friendly way. We can satisfy whatever you need…”
Jing Yi turned around and slapped Li Wenzhao’s arm twice: “Hurry up, donate to a few more temples and ask the master to make a few more talismans. We are not short of money.”
Black and White Impermanence: “…”
Seeing that Jing Yi was not working, Bai Wuchang turned his attention to Li Wenzhao, “Mr. Li, do you have any unfulfilled wishes? Any unfulfilled dreams? We can help you solve them, as long as you…”
“Besides the letter of apology,” Li Wenzhao suddenly said, his eyes burning, “What else do you want from Jingyi?”
Bai Wuchang was forced to keep silent and his lips slowly closed.
Jing Yi poked his head out: “?” Really?
The Black and White Impermanence looked at each other and broke out in a cold sweat. This time they had really hit a wall.
Jing Yi: [How did you know? ]
Li Wenzhao lowered his eyes calmly: [They are too attentive. ]
These two are both well-known ghost messengers in the underworld. It is not enough reason for them to be humble for the sake of a letter of forgiveness, unless there is something more important that forces them to come and get it in person.
Jing Yi: [Oh, either a traitor or a thief. ]
Li Wenzhao cast an admiring look at him.
Jing Yi: [No wonder I always have a panic feeling that a weasel will come to my house to wish me a happy new year.]
【……】
Black and White Impermanence quietly withdrew their gazes, looked at each other, and reluctantly told the truth, “We accidentally… lost Meng Po’s little toy.”
“?”
Jing Yi: “What toy?”
Hei Wuchang: “Just… a small loudspeaker.”
Li Wenzhao’s eyes fell on Jing Yi’s Adam’s apple, “A bug that caused the inner voice to be leaked?”
“That’s right.” Hei Wuchang said with a bitter face: “That was Meng Po’s use on us brothers. We accidentally got it into the gold finger card that time… Meng Po didn’t hear us complaining in our hearts these past two days. She followed the clues and found out that we had seduced the wrong soul. We are punished for multiple crimes. Now we need to get the gold finger back and get a letter of forgiveness, otherwise we can forget about this year’s year-end bonus.”
Jing Yi was silent.
“Really? We’ve said it all.” Hei Wuchang: “You can put forward any conditions you want, and we will answer them… Ugh!”
Bai Wuchang covered his mouth and said, “Things that break the rules of the world are not allowed.”
Hei Wuchang finally reacted, “Hmmmm!”
Li Wenzhao asked, “Will Jingyi have any sequelae after getting the golden finger back?”
Bai Wuchang answered honestly: “I will lose my voice for seven days.”
“How can that be possible!” Jing Yi immediately objected.
He loves to talk, and he feels uncomfortable if he doesn’t talk for a day. He dare not even think about losing his voice for seven days. So he can’t confront the Third Young Master when he sees him, he can’t tease Secretary Fan, and he can’t discuss with the Young Master which snack is more delicious.
Torture, absolute torture.
Jing Yi’s eyes widened and he covered his neck: “No, if you give me the golden finger, it’s mine. If you don’t give it to me, I won’t give it to you.”
Li Wenzhao didn’t say anything.
Indeed, the leak of his inner thoughts did help him a lot. The Li family’s turnaround and growth to its current size were inseparable from Jing Yi’s bug assistance.
But this thing is an external object after all. The butler has been like a transparent person during this period of time. People should have some privacy.
Li Wenzhao pinched Jingyi’s fingers.
Jing Yi was slightly stunned, then understood what he meant. But the bug had to be fixed, and his conditions had to be put forward.
Bai Wuchang saw that the two of them were showing signs of loosening up, so he struck while the iron was hot: “It’s better to do it today than to wait for a better day, otherwise, today…”
“How can that be possible?” Jing Yi said, “For something like this, we must choose an auspicious day.”
Hei Wuchang: “We are not picking our throats…”
After thinking about it, he realized that it was right. He sighed and said, “Then you guys choose. We’ll wait.”
Bai Wuchang: “…How long will it take you to choose?”
Before Jing Yi could speak, it was Li Wenzhao who spoke.
His voice was calm and casual: “I don’t know. You two can go deal with the other victims you accidentally killed first.”
Hei Wuchang was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly he felt enlightened: “Yes, Brother Bai, shouldn’t we start by picking on the weak ones? Why do we pick such a hard bone to chew right away?”
Jing Yi: “?” Who are you talking about?
Bai Wuchang was rarely confused, and this time his eyes widened.
He nodded, said “Okay” in a daze, and then asked Hei Wuchang to follow him and float away from the window.
The unsociable air conditioning in the living room was mostly gone, Jing Yi watched the two ghosts disappear out the window, and after a moment he realized: “Did he just scold me?”
Who is the tough nut to crack?
He is so soft.
Li Wenzhao quickly changed the medicine for him and wrapped the bandage around him. “It’s not hard, it’s quite soft.”
Jing Yi: “…”
[I suspect you were driving, and I have evidence! ]
Li Wenzhao didn’t hide his feelings, his eyes were warm and he approached Jing Yi’s lips gently, “You got the answer right, this is a reward.”
Jing Yi blushed on the spot.
A thought quickly came to his mind. He would be forbidden to speak for seven days, and would not be able to speak freely. So, he should just say whatever he wanted now…
Jing Yi propped up his upper body and followed suit, touching the corner of Li Wenzhao’s mouth. “As a lover, is this what you should say?”
He boldly pinched the man’s chin and shook it: “Xiao Li, your Chinese attainments should be improved.”
Li Wenzhao: “…”
Chuck, chuck.
Jing Yi turned his head refreshed, but without checking, he met two heads watching the show.
“…”
Jing Yi: “…………”
What are you two doing back here again? ! ! !
