The next day, Taoist Priest Qingxu disappeared from Yuncheng. Naturally, he would not care about the one million Shao Tianze should pay him.
On the plane, Ziling said regretfully, âMaster, we leave by plane instead of by boat. We bought such expensive air tickets but did not ask for the one million that the Shao Family should pay you. We lose too much.â
Hearing his discipleâs words, Taoist Priest Qingxu frowned and said, âNow you think that you have lost one million. When you lose your life for that one million, you will know which one is more serious, losing that one million or losing your life.â
Ziling thought it was a bit exaggerated, âMaster, you have been doing swindle and bluff for more than twenty years. Havenât you been saying that you donât believe in ghosts and gods?â
âAlthough I donât believe in those things ostensibly, I am pious in my heart.â As he was saying, Taoist Priest Qingxu pulled a red thread from his neck. A tally, in which furnace ash was wrapped, was hung on the red thread. It was an amulet with a spell painted in blood.
âWhatâs that, Master?â
Ziling asked Taoist Priest Qingxu.
Taoist Priest Qingxu said, âI prayed and sought this amulet from Thailend.â
âDidnât you get this amulet from Maoshan?â
Ziling couldnât help but make fun of his Master.
Taoist Priest Qingxu fiercely glared at him, âI do believe the culture and gods of our country, but Miss Song often goes to Thailend. Iâm afraid she really has something evil, which we canât afford to offend.â
âSomething evil?â
Ziling felt strange and asked his Master.
Taoist Priest Qingxu looked complicated and said, âI donât know if it is evil. However, since our purpose is money and we have received it, we should stop before going too far.â
âWhere are we going now?â
âG City, H City, or K City. We will stay in a good place no matter what.â
Ziling heard what his master said.
He lowered his eyes, âThatâs good. The money you defrauded was owned by those merchants who have no conscience. We left with the money. Then, we will buy a house somewhere to settle down. And I will serve you when youâre old.â
Taoist Priest Qingxu glanced at his disciple and said, âYou are coveting my inheritance.â
âMaster, donât talk nonsense. Why do your things become inheritance? You will live to a ripe old age.â
Hearing his discipleâs words, Taoist Priest Qingxu couldnât help but laugh, âI do not seek to live a ripe old age. If I can live in peace and stability for more than ten years, I will feel very contented.â
After he said these words, the plane just took off.
As the plane flew higher and higher, Taoist Priest Qingxu saw Yuncheng getting smaller and smaller. He lightly sighed, âI wonder what the Shao Family will be like.â
Ziling pulled down the blindfold and said to his Master, âNo matter how they become, it will have nothing to do with us. Master, we just need to live our lives well.â
Taoist Priest Qingxu smiled, âYouâre right.â
After that, he retracted his gaze, put on his blindfold, and went to sleep.
Yuncheng was destined to have turmoil.
And the turmoil was brewing.
It wouldnât end in a short time.
Learning that Taoist Priest Qingxu quickly left Yuncheng with his disciple after receiving the check, Song Yunxuan couldnât help but laugh, âThis old Taoist priest knows what is the best for him.â
âSuch charlatans have been muddling through in the society. They are like mice on a cruise ship, immediately fleeing around when just feeling a little danger.â
âHe is sensible.â
Song Yunxuan said.
Hearing Song Yunxuanâs words, Mei Qi couldnât help but ask her, âManager Song, what are you going to do next?â
âWhat else could I do? Since they found a ghost catcher to deal with me, of course, I should let them feel the man is useful.â
âManager Song, whatâs your plan?â
âIn the next period of time, you will reveal the news to the people outside that my health becomes worse and worse. And I should change my doctor tomorrow. Please find Pei Yuan for me, the best general surgeon.â
âPei Yuan?â Mei Qi creased his brow and said, âThe cases that Pei Yuan has taken are all very serious. Manager Song, are you really going to see Pei Yuan?â
âOf course, I am. I should go to see him. The more serious people think my condition is, the better.â
Naturally, Mei Qi would do as Song Yunxuan ordered.
He nodded and walked out of Song Yunxuanâs study, âIâm going to find Doctor Pei.â
âOK.â
Song Yunxuan saw that Mei Qi had left her study.
Then, she lowered her eyes and propped her jaw with her crossed hands
âShao Tianze, do you think it is so easy to dispel me?â
She sneered, âDispel me when you become a ghost.â
...
Gu Changle seemed to hear Gu Changgeâs voice while taking a nap. She immediately woke up with a start.
Shao Tianze was not by her side.
After raising her hand to touch her face, she squinted and got out of the bed. Then, she shouted to the door, âXiaoli.â
The maid named Xiaoli walked into the room immediately after hearing Gu Changle calling her. She asked Gu Changle, âYes, Miss Gu?â
Gu Changle frowned and said, âI want to consult Taoist Priest Qingxu in private, who came last night. Please contact him for me.â
âYes.â
Xiaoli immediately turned around and went to contact Taoist Priest Qingxu for Gu Changle. However, no one answered her call.
Not only did no one answer the call, but the prompt tone also indicated that the phone had been turned off.
Xiaoli worried that Gu Changle would not believe it, so she showed the phone to Gu Changle.
Hearing the prompt tone, Gu Changle couldnât help but knit her brows and asked Xiaoli, âWhere is Tianze?â
âMr. Shao went to the office early in the morning.â
âIâm calling him. Please go out.â
Hearing Gu Changleâs order, Xiaoli definitely didnât dare to continue to stay in front of Gu Changle.
She left the bedroom immediately.
Gu Changle called Shao Tianze.
After answering the phone and hearing Gu Changleâs voice, Shao Tianze asked, âWhatâs the matter?â
âDo you know that Taoist Priest Qingxu has left Yuncheng?â
âLeft?â
Obviously, Shao Tianze was also surprised.
âDid the old guy escape from Yuncheng with your money after the casual rope skipping?â
âDo you mean that he lied to us about the ghost-catching?â
âWhat else? Donât forget that you owe the old guy one million. Now he has given up this one million and left Yuncheng. Donât you think he is afraid of being found out?â
Expectedly, Shao Tianze felt that Gu Changleâs words made sense.
Therefore, he wanted to send someone to look for Taoist Priest Qingxu.
However, before he could make the call,
Shao Tianze received a call.
After answering the phone, he heard the person on the other end say, âMr. Shao, it looks like something really happened to the Song Family.â
âWhat happened?â
Shao Tianze asked with puzzlement.
The one on the other end said, âI have heard from someone in the Song Family that Pei Yuan went to the Song Family this morning.â
âPei Yuan?â
Back then, Shao Tianze was a celebrity in the Peopleâs Hospital and was influential in the medical industry.
He remembered those famous doctors.
âPei Yuan is the best clinician in general surgery.â
âWell...â
The person on the other end of the phone was speechless.
âIs Song Yunxuan sick?â
Shao Tianze asked the man delivering the news with expectation.
Hearing Shao Tianzeâs question, the man said, âThe Song Family are very cautious. Every servant in her family is tight-lipped. I canât get any information.â
Shao Tianze nodded, âItâs normal that you couldnât get anything. If the owner of the family is going to die, they definitely will keep their mouths shut. And there is Mei Qi by her side. He could handle everything well for Song Yunxuan.â
âShall we investigate it?â
âOf course, we should. Letâs start investigating Pei Yuan first.â
Shao Tianze said so.
And the man on the phone immediately accepted it.
After saying all the orders he needed to give, Shao Tianze hung up the phone.
As soon as he hung up, he thought of Gu Changle.
Then, he called Gu Changle.
Seeing Shao Tianze calling, Gu Changle asked him right away, âHow is the situation?â
âSong Yunxuan is seriously ill. She even sent for Pei Yuan.â
Hearing his words, Gu Changle couldnât help but laugh and was pleasantly surprised, âReally?â
âYes, itâs true.â Shao Tianze said, âI just got the news.â
Gu Changle had been suffering from serious illness and had been treated in the hospital for a long time. Naturally, she knew what kind of doctor Pei Yuan was.
She couldnât help but get excited, âAs long as it is a disease that needs Pei Yuan to treat, the patient must be at stake.â
âWhen did she send for Pei Yuan?â
âThis morning.â
âThe rituals of dispelling ghosts were held yesterday, and Song Yunxuan was already seriously ill this morning. If I didnât guess wrong, Song Yunxuan was not so well last night, right?â
âIt seems to be like this.â
Gu Changle said, âIn this way, the old Taoist priest didnât lie to us. Gu Changgeâs soul was really broken up by him. Then, it is Song Yunxuan who has been left behind, whom we donât have to fear.â
Hearing her words, Shao Tianze nodded, âThen, the Shao Family can take a breather for a while.â
There was no Gu Changge against their Shao enterprise.
Many things could naturally be resolved easily.
After all, the strength of the opponents was different, and the difficulty of solving problems was also different.
Gu Changle smiled and said to Shao Tianze, âSince there is nothing to worry about, when will you be willing to make me your official wife? Would you let me become known to the public?â
