Celestial Master II

Patting Henry Zhang on the shoulder, signaling him not to be too impatient, knowing his thoughts, Henry Zhang nodded, indicating that he was fine.

After Nie Xingfeng left, there were only two masters and servants left in the corridor. Yi looked at the red light on the door of the emergency room and asked, "Will Joe die?"

"Dare to cause me such a big trouble, even if he dies, I will bring him back from hell."

There was a sneer in the sneer, and Yi shook, and immediately turned back into a bat. He stretched out his claws and drew a cross on his chest, mourning the painful life that Joe was about to face.

Two hours later, the lights in the emergency room went out, the door opened, and the attending doctor came out, telling them that Joe was fine for the time being, but not completely out of danger. .

"Chairman, you go back and rest, I will stay."

It’s already midnight, and Nie Xingfeng has to go to work tomorrow, Henry Zhang doesn’t want him to be tired, anyway, he just finished a big case and is on vacation, so staying up late is no problem.

Nie Xingfeng still insisted, but Yi hurriedly said, "It's okay, I'm still there, and I'll let you know if there's anything to do."

"Then I'll come over tomorrow after finishing my work."

After Nie Xingfeng left, Henry Zhang came to Qiao’s intensive care unit. When he passed the nursing station, he heard the little nurse muttering to his colleagues: “The man couldn’t think about it for some reason. He must commit suicide. He lost nearly two thousand milliliters of blood. It was a miracle to be rescued."

Henry Zhang frowned slightly, and entered the ward, seeing that Joe was still in a coma, with his head tilted slightly on the pillow, and the blood plasma was slowly infused into his body through the needle tube. The nurse seemed to be afraid that his body would not be able to bear the excessive load, so she adjusted the drip very carefully Slowly, the room was unusually quiet, with the coldness before death.

Henry Zhang sat down on the opposite sofa and asked Yi: "Is there a red line?"

Yi searched the baby bag for a long time, but couldn't find it, so he said, "I'll go outside and look for it."

It took a shortcut and flew away through the glass window, turned back after a while, and gave Henry Zhang a red thread, and Henry Zhang entangled the thinly folded Taoist talisman with the red thread.Weave a string, go to it, and tie it around Joe's left wrist.Joe's condition is very bad, I hope this red rope can give him the strength to keep going.

"Should we inform Bai Mu of such a big incident?" Yi asked.

"That guy should have sensed it a long time ago. Since he pretended not to know, there is no need to mention it. If Joe died, it would not be too late to report the funeral." Looking at the little bat doing nothing, Henry Zhang said: "Go to sleep, Here I am watching."

Yi had been sleepy for a long time, and under the command of the master, he immediately flew to the top of the curtain and fell asleep hanging upside down, while Henry Zhang rested on the sofa to rest.

After sleeping in a daze for a while, feeling the yin attack, Henry Zhang opened his eyes immediately, and saw Joe's soul leaving his body, fluttering and wandering beside the hospital bed.

Henry Zhang turned his head to look at the ECG monitor next to him. The heartbeat showed that it was much weaker than before, and seemed to be slowly approaching stillness.

Joe's soul was a little chaotic, drifted for a while, and then stayed quietly on the bedside, but he didn't move back to his soul, and just stood there in a daze.

People are troublesome, even the soul is so troublesome, Henry Zhang raised his hand, and was about to help Joe return to his soul, when he felt a dark wind coming, and the ward suddenly became cold.His eyes swept across the door, and a man stood there at some point. He was dressed in a white suit, even his shoes were white, with long flowing hair and a handsome appearance. He was looking at him with a smile.

"There are no dead people here, go elsewhere for seduction." Henry Zhang said coldly that it was hard to recognize the outfit.

"Old friend, long time no see, don't be so cold-eyed when you meet." Bai Wuchang didn't care about Henry Zhang's indifference at all, and floated closer with a smile.

"What old friend? Usually, I don't give you much filial piety, but you didn't join me even once when calling out spirits and exorcising ghosts. What's the point of coming here now?"

"It's because your spells are not good, and you have read the spells wrong." Bai Wuchang retorted in a low voice, but when he saw the sharp blue eyes staring at him, he immediately raised his hand and surrendered, "Okay, it's my fault, you know what we do I'm really busy, although I didn't come in person, but every time I send my brothers to help."

"Busy, are you still hanging out here?"

"I haven't been busy recently." Bai Wuchang sat down on the opposite sofa and shrugged his shoulders: "There are dead people every day, but they can't catch their souls, which makes the subordinates very annoyed. Let me come over to see if something happened. Things. You also know that we also have missions for soul-hunters, and it will be terrible if we fail to complete them. Just now, my brother told me that there might be hope here, so I’m here.”

"He's not dead yet."

"Isn't this going to be soon?" Bai Wuchang looked at the soul floating beside the hospital bed, and said with a smile, "I'm not in a hurry, I'll wait for him to die."

Henry Zhang rubbed his forehead, and suddenly found that the industry of celestial masters is actually very difficult to do, and he has to fight against Wuchang to stay alone, but the appearance of Bai Wuchang reminded him that Joe's condition is really bad, without the attraction of death, Bai Wuchang is not I will come here on purpose.

Seeing Bai Wuchang leaning on the sofa and waving to Joe's soul, Henry Zhang's eyes turned cold: "Don't think about this person, he must survive."

When the little trick was discovered, Bai Wuchang had no choice but to withdraw his hand and shrugged boredly: "Since that incident happened, you have changed a lot. You were not so attached to life and death before."

"This person is what the chairman of my family wants to keep." Henry Zhang said lightly.

Even now, he still looks down on life and death. If Nie Xingfeng hadn't taken in Joe, he wouldn't have cared about Joe's life or death at all, but since Nie Xingfeng kept Joe, he would let Joe survive no matter what.

Qiao's soul was very curious about Bai Wuchang, and left the bed, wanting to go to his side, but hesitated for a while, then looked back at his body, as if he had no choice.Henry Zhang knew that the yin energy in Wuchang had a strong attraction to the soul itself, and Joe committed suicide again. With Wuchang, the soul is even more difficult to return to its place. He asked softly, "Are you willing to die?"

Soul tilted his head, as if he didn't know how to answer.

"When you die, all property belongs to Ao Jian, and you lose to him, including life, property, and even dignity." Henry Zhang smiled: "A dignified person would not choose to commit suicide."

The soul turned to look at the body on the bed, the red line and golden light on the body's wrist appeared faintly, as if it was a call, telling him the direction to stay.

Attracted by the red line, the soul looked at it for a while, then suddenly jumped into its own body, and soon the two merged into one. At the same time, the heartbeat fluctuation on the monitor suddenly became stronger, which was a sign of restarting life.

Henry Zhang smiled and looked at Bai Wuchang, which meant that you were out of play.The prey he got ran away, Bai Wuchang bit his lip angrily, and muttered: "You help him shamelessly."

"If his own desire to survive is not strong, no one can help him."

This is not wrong, Bai Wuchang sighed helplessly, turned around and left, and heard Henry Zhang say from behind: "By the way, I have burned more Ming coins for you these days, remember to take care of me next time when I invoke the soul."

"Got it, you money junkie!"

Bai Wuchang left, Henry Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, watching Joe's heartbeat showing more and more stable, he knew that Joe had passed this life and death hurdle smoothly.

The next day, Ruoye and Huo Li came to the hospital to see Joe, and seeing that Henry Zhang was a little tired, Ruoye said, "Let me take care of him tonight."

"I'm fine, just get some sleep."

Fearing that Bai Wuchang would go and come back last night, Henry Zhang never dared to sleep deeply. He curled up on the sofa all night, of course his face was not good, but it was nothing serious, and as for taking care of him, it was even more unnecessary.

Seeing Huo Li bring a big bag full of laundry, Henry Zhang asked: "What are you doing with the clothes? Are you planning to live long?"

"I heard from Yi that Joe's condition is very bad. It would be better for him to stay in the hospital for a while, right?"

"You pay for the hospitalization?"

When asked, the little fox was dumbfounded, because he used Henry Zhang’s deposit privately, and all the money earned by his fried chicken shop was confiscated. How can he have money to pay for Joe?

Turning to look at Xiaobai, Xiaobai's neck twisted, with an attitude of nothing to do with himself, seeing Yi hanging on the wall and shaking his hands at himself, the little fox closed his mouth wisely.

Nie Xingfeng rushed to the hospital in the afternoon. Qiao hadn’t woken up yet. Ruoye and others were nursing in the ward. Henry Zhang was lying on the sofa sleeping, and he knew he didn’t have a good rest last night.Without disturbing him, Nie Xingfeng whispered to Luo Ye: "I'll come here, you go back and rest."

Henry Zhang didn't fall asleep, and when he heard Nie Xingfeng's voice, he opened his eyes, sat up, and said, "Don't worry, the doctor said that he has passed the critical period, and he will wake up soon, and he will be fine."

"I'm worried about you." Seeing the red rope tied around Joe's wrist, Nie Xingfeng knew that Henry Zhang had cast a spell again, so he patted his head lightly and asked, "Isn't it a little trouble last night?"

"Just chatting with ghosts." Henry Zhang patted the sofa next to him, motioning for Nie Xingfeng to sit down.

Seeing that Henry Zhang didn't intend to go back, Nie Xingfeng didn't force him anymore. Anyway, Joe was sleeping, and the so-called care was just by his side.

In the evening, when Huo Li was going back to prepare dinner for everyone, Joe woke up.After the attending doctor came to check him up, he told Nie Xingfeng that he was fine, but because of excessive blood loss, he needed to rest in a short period of time, and asked them to enlighten the patient more, untie his knots, and not let the same thing happen again, etc. .

When the doctor left, Nie Xingfeng walked to Qiao's bed. He was very weak, his head sank in the pillow, making his face paler, looking at himself, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.

"Stop doing stupid things again."

After listening to Nie Xingfeng's words, Qiao lowered his eyes and nodded silently.

Henry Zhang walked over, looked down at Joe condescendingly, without saying a word, after a long while, he suddenly raised his hand to turn off the plasma drip.Nie Xingfeng was startled, but he didn't stop him. He watched him take Joe's hand and pull out the needle stuck in the back of his hand.

"Brother!" Huo Li shouted.

Henry Zhang ignored the startled little fox, and pulled Joe up from the hospital bed.Joe lost too much blood, and the whole person was in a daze. Being dragged by Henry Zhang, he frowned in discomfort, but did not resist, allowing him to drag himself out of the hospital bed.

"Henry Zhang, what are you doing? Joe is still infusion."

Ruoye didn't want to talk too much at first, but Henry Zhang's actions were too rough, and Joe's condition was so bad, there was no one around to stop him. If he didn't say anything, I was afraid that Joe would receive first aid again soon.

"Go home." Henry Zhang asked Nie Xingfeng for the car keys, and regardless of whether Joe could stand still, he dragged him out when he barely put on his slippers, and said, "If he wakes up, it means he's fine. He's in the hospital. Money is wasted.”

"But……"

Before Ruoye finished speaking, Henry Zhang had already left the room.Seeing Qiao's footsteps fluttering, as if he would fall down at any time, Ruoye turned to look at Nie Xingfeng. At this time, only Nie Xingfeng could persuade Henry Zhang.

Everyone else had the same thought. Henry Zhang was very angry now, and no one dared to rush over to be cannon fodder, so they looked at Nie Xingfeng together, but the chairman only said lightly, "Let's go home together."

"Should we keep this ward first? To save Joe from fainting later, we need to prepare another room." Yi asked Nie Xingfeng.

"No, Henry Zhang has a measure."

Seeing everyone's disapproving expressions, Nie Xingfeng smiled: "What the Borgia family needs is not sympathy and pity, but a slap in the face."

Watching Nie Xingfeng leave, Yi patted his forehead with his wings and moaned: "I found out that even if the boss says the sun rises from the west, the chairman will definitely say yes."

Ruo Ye and Huo Li nodded repeatedly, deeply sympathetic, but Xiao Bai cut it off with disdain: "The chairman is not the kind of person who echoes others."

"Um?"

Everyone turned their heads to look at Xiaobai, and saw it pacing out slowly, saying: "If Henry Zhang said that the sun rises from the west, the chairman will definitely cast a spell to make it rise from the west."

"Wow, it's so subtle!" Yi followed out admiringly, saying, "You seem to know them very well, and you hit the point every time."

"Of course." The kitten raised its head proudly, "Do you think friends who have been friends for tens of thousands of years are for nothing?"

"How many thousands of years?"

Realizing a slip of the tongue, Xiaobai immediately closed his mouth. Yi blinked, and after finding that he couldn't ask anything, he took out a paper and a pen and wrote down: The secrets of Xiaobai's relationship with the chairman and the boss need to be investigated.

Henry Zhang drove Nie Xingfeng’s car home and pulled Joe out of the passenger seat.After entering the door, he took him to the bedroom on the second floor in one breath. Joe's whole body was weak, and his steps were very floating. Without Henry Zhang holding him, he would fall almost at any time.

Hearing Henry Zhang’s words, Huo Li didn’t clean up the room, and the bedroom was still full of blood. After more than a day, the smell of blood was not as strong as before, but the thick pool of dark red liquid on the floor was still shocking. The smell sickened Jo, and she paled at once.

Henry Zhang stood beside him, and said coldly: "Do you know that it is unlucky to die in your family? If you want to die, go back to Italy and die, don't commit suicide in my house!"

Joe said a few words in a low voice, Henry Zhang couldn't understand, and shouted: "Speak Chinese!"

"...It's not...I'm going to commit suicide, it's that shadow..."

Hearing Joe's stiff answer, Henry Zhang was taken aback, then sneered: "You mean the shadow harmed you? Then do you know who the shadow is?"

Joe shook his head.

"It's your own, the shadow lurking in your heart that you dare not face." Staring at Joe, Henry Zhang said slowly: "If you don't want to die, no one can force you to die. Li Xiang's shadow ghost technique Although it is powerful, it is not omnipotent. All it can do is draw out the shadows in people's hearts. The more you are afraid of it, the more rampant it will be. On the contrary, it is nothing but the Tao that can only follow you forever. It's just a shadow."

Nie Xingfeng also rushed back, and when he heard Henry Zhang’s words at the stairs, he stopped and signaled Huo Li and others not to go there.

Seeing that Joe's face changed, Henry Zhang said again: "Maybe your autism is too severe to hear me, so I just say what I want to say, and it's up to you if you want to listen. This is not Italy, and you It’s not the Duke of Borgia. Here, no one needs to look at your face. Everyone accommodates you and treats you as a friend. They don’t want to make your illness worse. It’s not because of your status. If you don’t like it, you can Leave at any time, but before you leave, clean this place up."

Throwing a rag in front of Joe, he stood silent for a while, then squatted down, picked up the rag and began to slowly wipe the blood on the floor. The bloody smell came, and Joe felt a little nauseous, but because he hadn't eaten, he wanted to vomit but couldn't vomit anything. .

Henry Zhang turned and went downstairs, Huo Li looked at Nie Xingfeng, Nie Xingfeng shook his head at him, signaling him to ignore it, so Huo Li had to go to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

The living room was very quiet, and everyone had their own things to do. Seeing Henry Zhang’s complexion was not good, they were very smart not to act as the unlucky trigger. After a while, Henry Zhang beckoned Yi over.

"Why hasn't it been cleaned for so long? Go up and have a look. If that guy faints, call an ambulance."

Yi didn't really want to go, shaking the easy-open can in his arms: "I hate the smell of blood."

There is actually a shikigami bargaining with the owner in the world, Zhang Xuanfeng raised his eyes slantingly, looked at it and sneered: "I originally wanted to cancel your prohibition on alcohol."

"I'll go!" Yi flapped his wings and quickly flew to the second floor, which was related to his future wine career.

Xiao Bai also lazily jumped off the sofa, "I'll go up and help too."

"I'll help Joe prepare another room." Luo Ye also got up and left.

Everyone left, and only the two of them were left in the living room. Henry Zhang stretched his waist and lay down, resting his head on Nie Xingfeng's lap. Nie Xingfeng rubbed his hair and said, "Sorry, I Let you solve the troubles you have taken over.”

"It's nothing, I also wanted to fix that guy, and he just came to the door." Henry Zhang closed his eyes and muttered casually: "Whip and honey, if he is still not good, there may be really no cure."

After finishing speaking, the person had already fallen asleep. Nie Xingfeng adjusted his sitting posture so that Henry Zhang could sleep more comfortably. Looking at his sleeping face, he said softly, "Thank you."

With the help of Yi and Xiaobai, Qiao's room was quickly cleaned up, but he was too weak to stand upright after cleaning up. Luo Ye helped him to rest in another bedroom.

Joe also ate dinner in his room, and Huo Li specially made rice soup and Italian consomme that were easier to swallow for him, and brought him the medicine he brought from the hospital.

"I learned the soup from the Internet, but the time is too short, the ingredients at home are not complete, and the taste may not be very authentic. You just eat it, and I will prepare it tomorrow. You must take the medicine, and you will get better soon."

Huo Li knew that Joe didn't like to have too much contact with people, so he was about to leave after speaking. When he walked to the door, he suddenly heard him say: "Thank you." After a pause, he said: "Your dishes are delicious."

It was a very unexpected reply, the little fox was so happy that he almost flicked his tail out, and said repeatedly: "Do you have any favorite dishes? Just tell me, you're welcome."

After a while, a few people sitting downstairs saw a little fox sprinting down from above, all the way to Henry Zhang, and shouted: "Joe talked to me, brother is so amazing!"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Henry Zhang to give any response, he ran to the computer, clicked the mouse to find information, and flicked his tail behind him, looking extremely happy.

Henry Zhang was completely absent, and turned to look at everyone: "What's wrong with this guy? What's the wind?"

"Joe must have praised his cooking skills." Nie Xingfeng smiled beside him and said, "For a chef, what could make him happier than complimenting his cooking skills?"

"Joe talked to the little fox..." Henry Zhang found the point of the topic and asked, "That means his autism has been cured?"

"I don't know if it's cured or not, but he is willing to communicate with others, and you owe a lot."

Satisfied with being praised, Zhang Xuan immediately took the newspaper, turned to the recruitment column and began to look it up, Nie Xingfeng was very surprised: "What are you looking for?"

"Suddenly discovered that I have the talent to be a psychiatrist. See if there is any recruitment in this field. I can open up a tertiary industry."

Nie Xingfeng was speechless, he knew that some people could not be praised, so he calmly pulled the newspaper in Henry Zhang's hand and threw it aside.

Since being trained by Henry Zhang, Joe’s autism has improved a lot. After taking medicine for a few days, his body slowly recovered, and he no longer locked himself in the room, and he no longer asked to follow Nie Xingfeng to work. Instead, do simple chores at home.

Although he still doesn't speak much, when he is approached, he will reply in Chinese with a strong Italian accent, and ask Luo Ye to help him buy some Chinese learning textbooks, and read the books when he is free.

Seeing that his condition had improved significantly, Henry Zhang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that the trouble Ao Jian gave them was finally solved by them.

Perhaps the psychological shadow caused by Li Xiang cannot be easily eliminated, but at least Joe will not commit suicide again, because he has a living goal. Of course, if learning Chinese is also one of the living goals.

Half a month later, Joe proposed to go out for a walk, which was undoubtedly a self-breakthrough for him who had been in a state of autism after the accident; Nie Xingfeng was very happy and encouraged him to go out and get in touch with the outside world, after all, this is not Italy , in terms of the environment, it will not bring a sense of depression to Joe, but Huo Li or Luo Ye is still allowed to accompany him every time.

After more than a month, Joe gradually adapted to the life here, and his language communication has improved a lot. Seeing that he has gradually recovered the look of the high-spirited duke in the past, Nie Xingfeng felt relieved and felt that he could go back. up.

"I also hope that he will go back, otherwise, just tell Ao Jian to come and bring him over."

That night, Joe hadn’t come back when he went out, and everyone was talking about him in the living room, Henry Zhang couldn’t help complaining.

Although Joe's spirit is much better than at the beginning, he still relies on Nie Xingfeng in some places. Henry Zhang always feels that they are like sandwich biscuits, because with Joe in the middle, the whole atmosphere has a subtle sense of disobedience.

"I wish I had known if I didn't save him back then, it made such a big light bulb flickering in the house now."

The little magic stick said that every time, but when Joe had an accident, he was more nervous than himself, Nie Xingfeng smiled and said: "I will find a chance to tell Joe, after all, his family business is in Italy, it is impossible to be here. Stay long."

"makes sense."

Henry Zhang also thought so optimistically. The underworld is a world where the weak and the strong prey on the strong. If one is not careful, there will be no bones left. Joe, who has been struggling in it since he was a child, must know this truth better, so since he intends to survive, the first thing is to let I have a foothold in the family, and seeing how he left early and returned late recently, it should be a sign that he is about to leave, right?

At dinner time, there was a door opening outside, and Joe came back.Ever since he was able to go out alone, Henry Zhang gave him the spare magnetic card to open the door, which was a sign of acknowledging that he was a member of the family.

"Joe, you came back just in time. Dinner has just been prepared. Hurry up and get ready for dinner." Huo Li was setting the table and chopsticks. When he saw Joe coming back, he immediately greeted him.

During this period of time, everyone taught Qiao to learn Chinese, which invisibly narrowed the distance between each other. In addition, Huo Li's personality is self-familiar, so he is the closest to Qiao.

"Can dinner be postponed a little bit? I have something to talk about." Joe came to the hall and said to everyone.

Are you announcing your departure?

Henry Zhang was leaning on the sofa drinking black tea. After hearing this, he immediately sat up straight. Seeing that Joe was wearing a very orthodox black suit, and his hair style was carefully taken care of, he looked radiant and handsome. This outfit was different from when he went out in the morning , obviously, he had something to announce, so he changed into formal attire to show his solemnity.

Everyone gathered together and saw Qiao walking straight in front of Henry Zhang. Henry Zhang hurriedly pointed to Nie Xingfeng who was sitting next to him, and told him that that was the protagonist. With a plop, she knelt down in front of him.

Very disrespectful, Henry Zhang sprayed out the tea in his mouth, didn’t the little fox often teach Qiao Chinese recently?Why didn't he give some advice on the local customs here? Kneeling on both knees is a very important etiquette. Even if he saved Joe, he would not be able to bear this kneeling.

"It's still early for the Chinese New Year, and besides, I don't have the money to give you a red envelope." Henry Zhang wiped the tea from the corner of his mouth and solemnly declared.

"Master, I have decided to ask you to be my teacher to learn Taoism. Please accept me as an apprentice." Qiao knelt down in front of him without moving, and said solemnly.

N question marks quickly popped up on Henry Zhang's forehead, and when he understood, he blinked, "You seem to have put the cart before the horse, first of all, I haven't confiscated you as a disciple, you can't call me master, and secondly, it is impossible for me to accept you as a disciple , you don’t need to call me Master.”

Qiao's beautiful brows were slightly frowned, as if she was understanding the meaning of Henry Zhang's tongue twister, but she quickly asked: "How much apprenticeship fee is needed to get started, I will definitely pay it in full."

Everyone who watched the play gave Qiao a thumbs up in their hearts. He is worthy of being a gangster. Even if he is autistic, he knows Henry Zhang's love of money, and he hits his life all at once.

Unexpectedly, Henry Zhang was completely unmoved, and said lightly: "You made a mistake, I don't do things for money, besides, you are a gangster, what are you doing learning magic?"

Qiao Wei hesitated and didn't answer, but Henry Zhang didn't ignore the fleeting hatred in his eyes, and his face was a little ugly: "For revenge, right? Go find someone else, because of your identity, it's easy to find a master to learn spells. "

"Why?" Seeing Henry Zhang getting up to leave, Joe was anxious and hurriedly asked.

"I don't teach dead men spells."

Joe was startled: "I'm not dead."

"He who has hatred in his heart has killed himself before killing others, so, to me, you are already a dead person."

After Henry Zhang finished speaking, he waved to Huo Li: "Eat and eat, I'm already hungry."

"Oh."

The little fox ran to prepare the meals. When everyone saw that there was no show to sing, they all dispersed. Nie Xingfeng passed by Qiao and saw that he was still kneeling there, so he said: "Let's go to eat first. If Henry Zhang doesn't agree, you just forget it." Kneeling all night, he won't even bother."

"Nie..."

When called, Nie Xingfeng shook his head: "Don't beg me, I won't force him to do unhappy things."

Everyone went to the dining room, and Joe was alone on his knees on the floor of the hall, suddenly feeling very empty, an emptiness with no purpose in sight.

Revenge is not only to relieve pain, but also to support his survival. The person who took away his dignity and pride, trampled him under his feet and humiliated him severely, no matter what, he can't let go, even if he fights this way. Life!

"You've killed a lot of people before, haven't you?"

A question came from his ear, and Joe lowered his head and found that it was the black cat.In this family, the cat he has the least contact with is this cat, which is always proud and elegant, with shrewdness in its fluorescent blue cat eyes, Joe feels that if it is a human, it must be a very difficult opponent.

Asked, involuntarily, Joe nodded.

"What would you do if everyone you killed wanted revenge?"

He has killed a lot of people, whether he remembers it or not, there is no way. In the Borgia family, survival is at the same time as blood and blood, and death is the cheapest, so before he learned how to read , has learned to kill.

But this is different from Li Xiang, he kills to survive, while Li Xiang just wants to satisfy that perverted desire.

"You won't understand my feelings." He said bitterly.

The cat's lips turned up slightly, which seemed to Joe to be a sneer, and then he said lazily, "Maybe I don't understand, but everyone has a bad past. Everyone here has."

Qiao was taken aback, and really wanted to ask Henry Zhang if he had one too?For such a willful and casual person, he couldn't think of any unhappiness for him.

"Want to listen to my story?" The cat squatted beside him and said, "Stop kneeling, the story is very long. If you kneel and listen to it, you will definitely not be able to stand up tomorrow morning."

In the morning, according to the usual practice, Henry Zhang was the last to get up.He got up, opened the door in a daze, and was startled by the person who appeared in front of him. Joe stood in front of him, looked at him and called: "Master."

Henry Zhang slammed the door shut, calmed down, and after realizing that Joe’s appearance was not his hallucination, he opened the door again and reiterated: “Don’t call me Master, I won’t accept you as an apprentice!”

After finishing speaking, he turned and went downstairs. Joe followed closely behind and asked, "What if I say that learning magic is not for revenge?"

"Aren't you going to change your career as a teacher if you don't want revenge? You can't accept me even if you are taking my job."

One walked and the other chased, and they arrived downstairs in a blink of an eye. Seeing that there was another good show to watch, everyone gathered around.

"Is it okay if I say it's for killing harm, not for revenge?"

Henry Zhang turned around, folded his hands on his chest, and looked at Joe: "Do you think I will believe it?"

"If Li Xiang does evil, as a disciple of the Celestial Master, it is only right for me to kill him. It is different from killing with purpose for revenge. Is this okay?"

Henry Zhang stopped talking, and continued to look at Joe up and down. He was a very sassy and capable person, which was completely different from the image he had when he first came. Even the viciousness that said he wanted revenge last night was gone. Looking at him, Henry Zhang narrowed his blue eyes slightly.

"It's really you, why did you suddenly figure it out?"

"I talked to the cat all night last night." After a pause, Joe said, "Maybe I haven't fully figured it out yet, but I will try my best."

"Let's work hard to learn Chinese first." Henry Zhang patted him on the shoulder: "How else can you understand spells?"

"Master, have you agreed to accept me as an apprentice?" Qiao asked pleasantly.

"I didn't say that. It takes a lot of time and effort to teach an apprentice, and the cost is still very high. Although I don't do things for money, I can't do anything without money, right..."

When it came to money, everyone nodded at the same time, and looked at Joe together, guessing how much he was going to pay. Nie Xingfeng, who was reading the morning paper next to him, couldn't listen anymore, and called: "Henry Zhang."

The reminder was artificially ignored by Henry Zhang.

Joe has been in the underworld since he was a child, so of course he understood what Henry Zhang meant, so he said, "Is it okay to get three percent of the Borgia family's annual profit?"

Generous!So everyone's heads turned to Henry Zhang again, and Henry Zhang was also taken aback: "Aren't all your assets taken by Ao Jian? There is still a company underneath?"

"It's not so easy to move assets." Qiao smiled: "Half of the family shares are still in my hands. In addition to casinos, restaurants and other service industries, there are also some trading houses. I have talked with Ao Jian in the past few days. , basically we have a very happy division of labor, and I can still decide the distribution of [-]% of the annual income and profits.”

Henry Zhang’s blue pupils suddenly sparkled.

He knows how rich the Borgia family is. Even [-]% is definitely not a small amount, and he can make money without doing anything. It is a good thing to kill two birds with one stone to make him feel proud in front of the chairman.

"Henry Zhang..."

"Chairman, don't make noise, don't you see that I'm making money?"

The heartbeat is the heartbeat, but on the surface, Henry Zhang cleared his throat and said, "Three percent is too little, how about 5.00%?"

"no problem."

"OK." Henry Zhang snapped his fingers and called Yi over: "Send three sticks of incense, please Patriarch, I want to open an altar to accept disciples."

For Henry Zhang, as long as the money is in place, he will definitely act vigorously and resolutely.After a while, Zhang Tianshi's portrait was respectfully invited out, three sticks of incense were offered, and the light smoke was lingering. Henry Zhang's golden Taoist robe was neatly dressed, and he sat in front of the divine case. Turning his head, he saw Nie Xingfeng still sitting on the sofa With an idle look of an outsider, he flicked his head and gestured for him to come and accept the kneeling with his eyes.

Henry Zhang’s reckless behavior has reached the point of letting it go, Nie Xingfeng rubbed his forehead, and finally sat down beside him as he wanted.

Qiao knelt down on both knees, worshiped the teacher, first worshiped the patriarch, then the master, then took the tea prepared by Yi, and offered it with both hands. Henry Zhang took the tea generously, took a sip, and said: "Today you enter Under my sect, you will officially become a disciple of the Celestial Master. There are some rules you must keep in mind. First, you must respect your teacher, and second, you must not use spells in evil ways. Then, then..."

Then I couldn't remember it, and turned to look at Nie Xingfeng, hoping that he would remind me. Nie Xingfeng looked up at the sky and was too lazy to mess around with the little magic stick.

Without being prompted, Henry Zhang had to continue talking nonsense: "Then...Actually, there are not many rules under our Heavenly Master's sect. The most important point is that the rules can fluctuate depending on the situation, but don't let me know that you are breaking the law. matter."

Henry Zhang bit "Don't let me know" very hard, and if he doesn't do illegal things, what kind of underworld is that?As long as he didn't know, it was his business as to what Joe did.Qiao understood, and said solemnly, "Master, don't worry."

I really couldn’t listen anymore, Nie Xingfeng coughed, and signaled Henry Zhang that enough was enough.

Being reminded, Henry Zhang hurriedly pointed to Nie Xingfeng, and said to Qiao: "Tea."

Seeing the tea being served respectfully, watching Nie Xingfeng bow his head to taste the tea, Henry Zhang smiled and said to Joe: "In the future, you can call him "chairman" like everyone else, or you can call him "teacher's wife". "Nie"."

The next few audience members were overwhelmed, but the CEO, who was the protagonist, continued to drink tea with a calm face.

Joe obviously didn't want to change, so he thought, "Seven percent."

In terms of money, Henry Zhang’s reaction was definitely faster than the speed of light, and he immediately replied: “Ten percent.”

"Ten percent." Qiao agreed, looked at Nie Xingfeng and said, "Nie, your title is very valuable."

The few people behind who had just got up fell down again, Xiaobai didn't get up at all, so as not to fall again.Everyone looked at Nie Xingfeng, with a calm expression, but it was definitely the tranquility before the storm, Henry Zhang seemed to feel it, and hurriedly waved at Joe.

"That's enough, that's all, the apprentice ceremony is over, you can get up."

While everyone came over to congratulate Joe, Henry Zhang quietly glanced at Nie Xingfeng, and asked in a low voice: "Chairman, are you angry?"

If he got angry with the little god stick for this kind of thing, he would have died of anger hundreds of times. Nie Xingfeng said lightly: "I don't care, anyway, you are the one who takes the apprentice, so just don't cry tired."

"Will I be so stupid to let Baimu see the joke?" Henry Zhang said with a smile: "Look, I will give you a big surprise right away."

Shortly after breakfast, the doorbell rang, and soon Wei Zhengyi's loud voice came: "I'm here, hello master, hello chairman, hello everyone."

"Brother Wei, you haven't been here for a long time."

Huo Li offered the fragrant tea in his hand, Wei Zhengyi thanked him, took a sip, and said: "
