Seeing that the person had really left, I finally exhaled. My young body couldn't stand such a scene, so I felt uncomfortable swollen somewhere, and my whole body felt uncomfortably hot.

I quickly closed the store door and ran to the back to take a cold shower.

But the delicate fragrance on Tang Lian's body and her big eyes with a hint of cunning always seemed to occupy her mind, lingering, and she dreamed about her for several nights.

A week later, my master came back, covered in travel dust, but he also brought back some delicious food.

We sat in the back dining room to eat.

"Is there any work coming to you while I'm not at home?" the master asked.

I hesitated for a moment and replied: "...There was only one person, and I didn't answer the call!"

Master's hand paused, "surnamed Tang?"

"yes!"

"who?"

"A... woman who is about the same age as me! She said her name was Tang Lian! She said something before she left, saying that if you listen to it, you will take over her job." I don't know why,

At this point, my face turned red again.

"What words?"

"Purple and Gold Compass."

The master was silent for a while, "Let's eat!"

After eating, the master went into his study and closed the door.

I looked at the door, silently cleared the dining table, and began to wonder why Master always told me not to take jobs with the surname Tang before going out.

In all these years, we have indeed never met anyone named Tang.

Now someone suddenly appeared, and the master's reaction was a little abnormal.

In that study room, there are many things belonging to the master. One of the spiritual tablets is said to be the ancestor.

I didn't know the words on it. I only went in and kowtowed once on the day I came back with Master, and I never went in again.

Master stayed in the room all night, and the next morning it was the same as usual.

Sitting in the shop, drinking tea, reading the newspaper, and staring at me as I wiped the decorations in the shop.

Since Tang Lian came that time, she has never come again. I think she may have found someone else for help and will not come again.

As a result, a month later, she came to the door again.

This time she changed into a ginger cheongsam, with a small figure wrapped in it. She was exquisite and graceful. Her long hair was braided into two braids, giving her a certain aura of ancient Xiaojiabiyu.

She was carrying several large boxes with her, either supplements or expensive ingredients.

At that time, I was wiping magic instruments in front of the Bogu rack. When I saw her coming in, I turned to look at Master.

Master sat on his old wooden chair without moving, drinking tea by himself.

Tang Lian bowed slightly to him, "Master Wu, my name is Tang Lian. I am visiting you today because my father is seriously ill and there is no hope of recovery. Therefore, I beg you to help me choose a suitable ghost house. These gifts are not disrespectful."

!”

After she finished speaking, she tilted her head slightly, and the person behind her quickly placed the things in her hands on the table next to her.

"I hope Master Wu will accept it!" Tang Lian continued, politely and respectfully.

The master raised his eyelids and took a look, then looked at Tang Lian, frowning slightly, "Sure enough, he is the next head of the family selected by the Tang family. Ziwei enters the palace, which is a good fortune!"

"Master, you are overly praised!" Tang Lian smiled obediently.

"But please go back! I won't take on the Tang family's affairs!"

When I heard this, I involuntarily breathed lightly and stopped what I was doing to see what Tang Lian would say later.

"If the master is willing to help, in addition to the hard work fee, we also have a big gift ready." Tang Lian said with a slight smile. Seeing that the master was still silent, she continued: "Your master's lost treasure, we have found clues, we are willing

Find and return for free!”

I don’t think she’s talking about the Purple Gold Compass, right?

The master finally reacted, put down the newspaper, stood up and said angrily: "Get out!"

"Master Wu!" Tang Lian's expression changed, "I came here to treat you sincerely, why don't you give me this little face?"

"Is Tang Tiande dead?" the master said angrily, "He is not dead. What kind of ghost house does he look at? He specializes in doing things that harm Yinde. Don't think I don't know what he wants to do? Go back and tell me that if he dies, it's best to throw his ashes into the sea.

Go, lest you occupy a good hole and ruin the path of reincarnation for others!"

This is too strong!

My heart trembled when I heard it.

Our profession is nothing more than a setback and ashes. How could this Tang Tiande offend my master and make him say such a thing?

And I have never seen Master so angry.

I was a little worried that Tang Lian, a young woman, would not be able to bear such harsh words, so I quickly looked at her.

Tang Lian's face turned pale, her lips trembled, and she bowed slightly, "Sorry, I don't want to say too much about the elders' matters and make Master Wu unhappy. I'm really sorry! I'll go back today.

Come back in a few days, and I hope Master Wu can change his mind by then!"

"Miss, I think you are giving him face!" The person Tang Lian brought said angrily, "He treats you like this, let me teach him a lesson!"

"Insolent!" Tang Lian scolded, "Hurry up and apologize to Master Wu!"

When I heard this, I stopped when I was about to hit someone.

"Miss!"

"Apologise!" Tang Lian's tone was stern, "If you don't apologize, don't follow me anymore!"

"I'm sorry!" the man said reluctantly.

My master snorted coldly and turned away to ignore them.

Seeing them leaving, I quickly walked over and said, "Master, are you okay?"

"Throw their things out!" the master said.

When I heard this, I quickly picked up the things they brought and threw them out. Once the door was closed, I stood there and stared at them.

Tang Lian stood in front of the car, looking at me. There seemed to be a lot to say in her eyes, but I couldn't understand it, and I didn't want to understand it.

"Let's go!" Tang Lian got in the car and left.

"Ziwu!" Master came out, "Close the store and come with me for a few days!"

"Oh, here we come!" I quickly agreed, went to close the store door, and quickly went back to the back, picked up a few changes of clothes for myself and my master, and put them into my backpack.

I was a little confused, why did Master suddenly take me out? Was he trying to avoid the Tang family, or was there some other purpose?

I didn't dare to ask, so I followed Master out of the old street and stopped a taxi. Master said, "Go to the long-distance bus station!"

"Master! What are we going to do?" After getting in the car, I finally couldn't help but ask.

"I took a job." After saying this, the master stopped talking and closed his eyes.

I kept looking at my master, and couldn't help but start thinking about it again, and stopped talking.

"The Tang family's affairs have nothing to do with you!" Master still had his eyes closed, as if he knew what I wanted to ask.

"Oh!" I was a little reluctant, but Master said so, so I could only keep the question in my heart and shut my mouth.

Linxian is not too far from Jiangcheng, only two hours by car.

However, our destination is not the county, but a more remote place called Stone Village.

There are local minibuses available in front of us, but we have to walk on our own for a section of the mountain road behind.

After walking for more than an hour, we saw a village surrounded by mountains, bamboo forests, and farmland of varying heights. The scenery was beautiful.

Suddenly, I saw a man squatting on the side of the road. When I turned my head, I found a bug in my hand, chewing it in my mouth, and grinning. I felt like my scalp was exploding.

The man was not very old, he looked to be about thirteen or fourteen years old. His eyes were cloudy, his hair looked like tangled grass, and his clothes were dirty and caked.
