Chapter 117: Half-man, half-ghost
As soon as I said this, my heart moved and I hurriedly asked, "What's the specific situation?"
Unexpectedly, Brother Huang rolled his eyelids at me and ignored me. I was speechless. Then I remembered that he was my own family and I was an outsider. Besides, even if he was a master, I shouldn’t interrupt.
I consciously shut my mouth and took a step back. Shao Pei smiled embarrassedly at me and turned around and asked, "What's the specific situation?"
Brother Huang San said: "It's specific, this is the situation..."
I was speechless. If these words were said in the mouths of two people, why did they have different effects?
Brother Huang San said that in Pingshan City, there is a boss who is engaged in building materials and real estate business. His surname is Ke, who is about fifty years old. He was diagnosed with liver cancer two years ago, but he was still in the late stage. Logically speaking, he would not live this summer.
But in fact, not only did he live through summer, but it seemed that it was almost winter, so he was still very energetic. Of course, medical miracles often happen, and it is normal to prolong life, but the situation of this boss Ke is a bit special.
That is, two months ago, Boss Ke was bedridden, but somehow suddenly one day, his health improved, and he recovered as before in two or three days, sweeping away the rumors that he was about to live in the near future, and dealing with several important businesses vigorously, causing the companies that were in a slump to gradually improve.
But what is strange is that this boss Ke has improved health, but his personality has changed. The person who was originally very cheerful suddenly became gloomy and began to alienate the people around him. He locked himself in the house all day long and rarely went out without any trouble.
Also, he has always been very tolerant and open-minded, but since his personality changed drastically, he has become harsh. Some of those who have offended him and even used vicious means to retaliate. It seems that his heart has been surrounded by hatred.
Also, a few days ago, he suddenly made a strange will, saying that after his death, his body would not be cremated.
When Brother Huang said this, Shao Pei looked at me wonderingly, shook his head and said, "This seems to be a little weird. How can I say it's like a dead person? Brother San, are there any other situations?"
Brother Huang San said again: "The following is what I want to say. Since the man recovered from his condition, he not only had a weird temper, but also had a very strange behavior. He was not only afraid of light, water, and fire, but also had a lot of food. Every time he ate, he had to lock himself up, no one was allowed to be by his side, and then he had to eat a lot. Then, people outside would hear a very strange and terrible sound, just like a wild beast eating. However, after he came out, everyone would look at it and the food would be eaten up."
Shao Peiyi said: "This doesn't seem like a dead person, it's like a starving ghost..."
Brother Huang clapped his hands and said, "By the way, this is what I want to say. Maybe it's not right to say that dead people are not right. To be honest, it should be said that his behavior is not like a human, but a bit like a ghost."
Shao Pei didn't say a word anymore. He looked at me again, a little dumbfounded. He thought for a long time before asking, "Is there anything else?"
Brother Huang San shook his head and said, "That's all for the time being. Time is tight. It would be nice to know this. If you give me a few more days, you can help you check more. Unfortunately, the old man will give me one day, and I will have to go back later."
Shao Peiyi said: "That's really hard work for my third brother. It's rare to find out so many situations in one day. If you have some work, then let's do it yourself. Third brother and his men work hard. I have prepared some small gifts, and I can't respect you."
As he said that, he lit a large bundle of incense he had prepared early on, placed it on the table, and then winked at me and said, "Brother Third, let's go out to discuss it first, please feel free to do it."
I naturally understood and retreated with Shao Peiyi and closed the door. Just as I just closed the door, there was a chirping sound in the room, as if there were many people talking at the same time. Brother Huang San laughed and said, "Thank you all the hard work for the children. Today, Brother Shao rewards us, don't be polite..."
Then, all kinds of strange sounds started to sound, clamoring, as if there were many people scrambling for something.
Shao Pei patted me and said, "Calm calm, they all like to be popular, and don't be so focused on lying on the door and listening to the movements, okay? They will be unhappy if you do this..."
OK, I admit I've been lying on the door just now...
Soon, the sound in the room gradually disappeared, and then a loud sneeze sound came, and Shao Pei snapped his fingers and said, "Okay, they are gone."
When I entered the room again, I found that the large bundle of incense on the table was gone, and even the ash was not left behind. I couldn't help but feel cold. It seemed that these great immortals were still different from ordinary monsters. Monsters wanted to eat meat and people, but these great immortals just had the popularity. It seemed that the word "媚" was well-deserved.
The few people in the room were also in a coma. In fact, He Tiantian's family had no idea what had happened in the past two days. They were in a coma at every critical moment. After waking up, they heard Shao Peiyi talk nonsense to them. Of course, I don't care about how Shao Peiyi told them exactly.
In short, there are already some clues and clues in the matter now, and the efficiency is indeed very high. If we were asked to do it ourselves, we might not be able to find out these things in a month.
Shao Peiyi and I looked at each other for a moment, thinking about the solution in our minds, and suddenly spoke at the same time: "Why don't you go to find that Boss Ke tomorrow?"
After saying that, we both laughed at the same time. It seems that the heroes have similar views.
Nangong Feiyan came back soon. After hearing our words, she expressed great interest, but then she said with some frustration that there would be something important to Mr. Huang Qi on tomorrow, and asked her and Shao Peiyi to participate. In this case, the matter of finding Boss Han might have to be postponed.
I thought about it and found that this matter was really undelayed. He Tiantian's life was one day or two, especially now that he was in a semi-coma, which was even more worrying.
So I told them that since they have something to do tomorrow, just go and do it. I can find Boss Ke’s business, and I can do it myself.
Shao Peiyi expressed a little concern and suggested that I wait a moment. I smiled and said, "Anyway, I'm not fighting with someone, I just asked the person for the situation. If he doesn't cooperate, it's not too late to think of other solutions."
This matter was settled. I thought to myself that even without them, I would do this matter alone. I used money to buy life. In fact, it was mentioned one in the taboo notes, but it was not detailed. I just said that this is an extremely evil magic, which not only violates the harmony of nature, but also damages the good deeds. Therefore, I must stop this matter.
However, in terms of inquiring about the news, Nangong Feiyan is much better than me. The next morning, she called Shao Peiyi and told me that the details about Boss Ke, including his appearance, home address, company address, and even what meeting he would attend today were very detailed.
I was surprised. How did Nangong Feiyan know so much about the situation? Shao Peiyi smiled and said to me, don’t look at her alone, in fact, her subordinates are no less than those brought by Brother Huang San.
I was a little puzzled. If this is the case, why would Shao Peiyi have to work hard to transfer people from the Xiangtang outside the Guan Wai? Can Nangong Feiyan solve it?
Shao Pei sighed and said, "Brother, you don't understand this. I, a shaman successor, only cares about foreign affairs. When I get here, she will only give me some face. If I want her to spend a lot of effort on me, it is unrealistic. Therefore, if I want to do things, I can only find my own people."
I still don’t quite understand. Shao Pei thought about it and said, “To put it simply, she is willing to help like this, it’s all for you. Do you understand? Don’t forget that she always called me Mr. Shao, but she called you brother.”
I was a little confused. Could it be that I really have such a high status in Nangong Feiyan’s heart?
Shao Pei left as soon as he finished speaking. He and Nangong Feiyan went to the appointment of Master Huang Qi. I packed up my things and set off alone to find Boss Ke.
