Chapter 18: Meeting Mao Xueying Again
Haha, Zheng Qihuai smiled mysteriously. As he waved his hand, the air suddenly became thicker and the gravity of the ground suddenly increased.
I was caught off guard and almost stumbled.
"How is it? Brother, I am also the vice president. As a fourth-grade Xuan Master, I can borrow this terrain."
Zheng Qihuai looked at my surprised expression and said with some pride.
Uh, looking at the extremely arrogant Zheng Qihuai, I couldn't help but ask: "Then what happened to you in Dongmen Village?"
Zheng Qihuai thought of the scene in Dongmen Village and couldn't help blushing: "Ah, Dongmen Village, I'm giving you a chance to show off."
I looked at him with disdain.
"Ahem, okay, actually I don't have the method to practice the Mountain Art. Alas! Ever since Master Xu Zhouzi disappeared, except for the famous sects in the metaphysical world, there are no good methods for practicing for the idle metaphysical practitioners like me. Actually, there is a copy of your Commoner Divine Art in our Metaphysical Society, but it still doesn't contain the Mountain Volume."
Zheng Qihuai said with some regret.
Oh, "Commoner Magic, the Metaphysics Society also has it?" I asked in surprise. I have always thought that I only have one copy of Commoner Magic. I didn't expect that the Metaphysics Society also has it. This is strange, why don't these people practice it?
As if seeing my confusion, Zheng Qihuai sighed and said, "This cloth-clothed magic was left by Master Xu Zhouzi, but the method on it is obscure and difficult to understand. We only have the formula but cannot activate it. It was only after President Wu Zhidao and I entered the realm of fourth-grade Xuanshi that we learned some tricks of making talismans."
I was even more confused! I could still make talismans with my second-grade cultivation, but Zheng Qihuai could only make them with his fourth-grade cultivation. If you want to ask about the difference, there is only one point, that is, my Nine Yin physique.
"Master Zheng, could you show me the commoner magic in the Metaphysics Society?" I regretted the moment I said it. My request was a bit rash. Which of these cultivation techniques is not regarded as a treasure by the sect?
Hehe, "Brother, this cloth magic is the treasure of my Metaphysics Society. But if you want to see it, that's fine too. I will introduce you to join the Metaphysics Society."
Zheng Qihuai looked at .
Although I felt something was amiss, the other party had already promised, so I couldn't be too hypocritical. Moreover, I had already promised Duan Qirui.
"Okay, what are the procedures for joining the Metaphysical Society?"
Seeing that I agreed, Zheng Qihuai laughed loudly: "Our Metaphysics Society is very lenient. Normally, you need four members to recommend you to join. But I am the vice president, so it is enough for me to recommend you. What's more, you also know Duan Shengun, so you can include him as a recommender. No formalities are required, just take a photo and fill out a form."
I made an appointment with Zheng Qihuai to go to the Metaphysics Society the next day. Not long after seeing Zheng Qihuai off, my cousin drove over.
"Cousin, you know where the Metaphysics Society is, right? If you are free, come pick me up at ten o'clock tomorrow morning."
"Ni Ge, it's decided! This Metaphysics Society is an amazing place. Haha, with your ability, it won't be easy to get a membership. Let's go drink and sing tonight. Let's celebrate properly."
"Haha, by the way, cousin, what's the urgent matter that made you pull me into the car in such a hurry?"
It had been a while since I got in the car when I remembered why my cousin wanted to talk to me.
"Look at how careless I am. Your real estate certificate has been issued, but there were some minor incidents in the process. I think this is a good thing. You will know later. The choice is up to you."
My cousin's mysterious words left me confused. Fortunately, the car soon stopped under a building.
My cousin got out of the car and took me straight to a club.
"Ni Ge, not everyone can come to the Dongmen VIP Club. Even my cousin has been here for nearly ten years and has never been in once. All the people in here are well-known figures."
As he walked, my cousin sighed and said.
"Cousin, what's the trend today? This place is quite high-end. Are you planning to bring me in to spend money?"
Looking at the luxurious decoration, I can't help but feel a little like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden. This is the first time I know that a room can be decorated like this. Even my cheap villa looks like a bumpkin compared to this decoration.
My cousin sighed with a bitter face: "You are dreaming. If you spend a little money here, your villa will be gone. I don't have that ability. I brought you here to meet someone you know."
I thought about it quickly in my mind, but I couldn't find anyone around me who had such a grand appearance. Suddenly, a person's name suddenly flashed in my mind.
"It can't be Mao Xueying!"
"Haha, Ni Ge, you are awesome."
As soon as I entered the hall, a man in a suit asked respectfully, "Are you Master Ni?"
"I am." I nodded.
"Master Ni, please follow me, both of you."
Led by the man in the suit, I crossed the hall which was several thousand square meters and came to the elevator.
The man in the suit took out his card and scanned it at the elevator identification port. The elevator then opened.
Enter the elevator, go straight up, and stop at the 36th floor.
The man in the suit took us into a guest room numbered 3. Sitting inside was Mao Xueying.
"Master Ni, long time no see." Mao Xueying stood up with a smile, and pointed at the sofa in the living room with her delicate hands.
"Um, Miss Mao, what is the reason for calling me here?" I asked puzzledly while sitting on the sofa. In my opinion, the last communication was just a flash in the pan, and the other party was not from the same world as me.
"It's like this. I also think the house that Mr. Ni likes is good, so I bought it on my own initiative . However, the real estate certificate is still in Mr. Ni's name. Mr. Ni only needs to sign this agreement."
Mao Xueying showed a hint of cunning and took out an agreement with a smile.
This was a piece of cake! But I didn’t take the agreement, and I didn’t even look at it.
"Miss Mao, I see a dark aura between your eyebrows, your lips are dry, and your ears are red. This is the sign of a villain. Miss Mao must be in trouble. However, there are many talented people in the metaphysical world, why did Miss Mao choose me?"
"Master Ni is really amazing. Okay, I won't hide it. It's like this. Half a month ago, I brought Duan Gang back to Shanghai, and Duan Gang suddenly disappeared. After investigating, not only did we find nothing, but the people we sent out also disappeared."
Mao Xueying frowned, exuding a hint of sadness, which made her indescribably lovable.
"You should call the police." Facing Mao Xueying's beauty, I said unscrupulously.
"Master Ni, you're joking. If calling the police would have worked, I wouldn't have been controlled. For safety reasons, I decided to come to you. Because you're the first person I thought of."
After Mao Xueying finished speaking, she looked at me with her bright eyes.
"Well! Uh, actually, the bodyguards around you are enough. Besides, I have no intention of being your bodyguard."
Having said that, I think Mao Xueying should give up.
"Mr. Ni, you arrested Duan Gang. Even if you don't help me, he will come to you sooner or later. As for me, I don't mean to ask you to be a bodyguard. Before coming here, I investigated the several policemen who entered your room. Mr. Ni's house is not an ordinary residence. So I just ask to stay in your house. In fact, it doesn't take long."
Although Mao Xueying's tone was a bit threatening, it was pitiful.
"Ni Ge, I've seen that Miss Mao doesn't have any bad intentions, so just agree to it!"
My cousin couldn't stand it and looked like he would fight me to the death if I didn't agree.
I hesitated for a moment. Although my house is an extremely yin place, it should be no problem for people to live there for a short period of time.
"Okay, in that case, let's settle it. However, after you move in, you can't go out and walk around at night. You can't go into the basement during the day."
Pick up the pen and the agreement and look at Mao Xueying. As long as the other party doesn't agree, the matter will be over.
"Okay, everything will be done according to Master Ni's instructions."
Seeing that Mao Xueying agreed very readily, I picked up the pen and signed the agreement, which made me regret it later. It was also my first time signing an agreement and I didn’t have enough experience. If I had read it carefully before signing!
Seeing me sign the agreement, Mao Xueying showed a cunning smile again and quickly put the agreement away.
"Ni Ge, please take me home now!"
I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. Wasn't it originally owned by Master Ni? Send me home! This Mao Xueying's home should be in Shanghai!
"It is clearly written in the agreement that during the period of stay, the property rights belong to me. So the house you are living in now is mine. You are obliged to take good care of me and act as my driver."
Mao Xueying regained her queen style and said with a proud look on her face.
"Can you show me the agreement again?" I knew I was fooled. But if the agreement is destroyed and then denied, it will be useless.
"Not now, but I'll send someone to give you a copy in a couple of days."
Mao Xueying looked at me with a smile, like a little princess who got her favorite toy.
"Alas! You are wrong. I cannot be your driver because I cannot drive. If you want a driver, you should find one yourself. Besides, we have already agreed that I am not your bodyguard."
I sighed in response. If I really become a bodyguard in the future and get together with such a quirky woman, even if she is beautiful, I will collapse.
"That's right, you are not my honorary bodyguard. The agreement only states that you are responsible for my safety during the stay. Also, if you don't know how to drive, you can learn. I can arrange for someone to teach you right now."
"Um, Ni Ge, my condolences! Well, cousin suddenly remembered that he has something to do, so I'll leave first!" My cousin recovered from his shock, patted my shoulder in a disloyal manner, and slipped away as if he was escaping!
