The world of beauty drama begins with the surrender of Jason

Chapter 5 A novice exorcist who has been practicing for two and a half years

The bright sunshine at noon shines through the glass windows on the slightly old wooden floor, replacing the dim and flickering electric lamps and becoming the main light source indoors.

Like other middle-class houses common in the Commonwealth, this Colonial-style two-story house is made entirely of fine spruce and North American oak.

Although as time goes by, some minor problems such as damage and leakage will inevitably accumulate, but thanks to the high-quality building materials and the careful maintenance of the previous owners, it has survived decades of wind and rain, and is generally in good condition. It is still in relatively good condition.

Therefore, the Los Angeles Real Estate Company can sell it at a good price.

——If there are no other questions.

In the room, Zhu Mingyao held a compass embedded with bright silver mysterious symbols and stood in the bathroom on the second floor. He looked at the shadow of an old woman hanging under the showerhead with her eyes protruding and spitting out a long tongue, and sighed in her heart. road:
  "What I'm saying is that those stupid people in the previous life who couldn't figure out their identity should be given a chance to come to the lighthouse to see the real life of the people at the bottom of the empire!

Save them there and reread bullshit like the One Dollar Fried Chicken House every day. "

There was no one here, and he didn't bother to hold it anymore. He put the compass on the sink and took out a bottle of free holy water from the small church in the neighborhood from the suitcase at his feet.

Uncorking the bottle, Zhu Mingyao lit a cinnabar-yellow charm, threw it in and shook it a few times.

The combination of holy water and magical talismans is called the combination of east and west, and the main purpose is to meet the religious beliefs of a wide range of customers.

After the meager incense in the holy water was fully activated by the talisman, he bowed and bowed to the old lady who had been drained of her pension by the federal government's high medical expenses and had to commit suicide.

After all, death is a big deal.

Even if the other person is just an ignorant and ignorant person, Zhu Mingyao is willing to give him a certain amount of respect based on traditional virtues.

"Although there is no reincarnation in this world, it is better to return to heaven and earth than to stay in this world without relief. Please go all the way."

As he spoke, he poured all the talisman water he had prepared into the old woman's shadow.

The crystal water drops fell, taking away the lingering thoughts of the dead soul, and also washed away most of the gloomy atmosphere here.

When Zhu Mingyao opened the windows and let the gentle breeze flow in at noon, the business was completed for the day.

As he packed his things, picked up his suitcase and went downstairs to leave, he complained softly:

“I wonder where this stereotype in the Federation that Eastern magicians must have a mysterious compass comes from?

If you don’t get this thing now, these customers will think you are not professional enough..."

……

When they saw the door open, a white couple standing across the street waiting anxiously immediately gathered around them, looking at the Chinese teenager who looked like a high school student in front of them, with expressions on their faces that were both uneasy and full of expectation.

Fortunately, the handsome-faced young man didn't have any bad taste for showing off. He nodded and said straightforwardly:
  "Thank you both for your trust. The problem has been completely resolved. The previous owner has gone to heaven peacefully. You can move back to this new home at any time."

"Thank God! Thank you so much!" The woman's tense mood suddenly relaxed. She put her hand on her forehead and thanked her repeatedly, with tears almost oozing out of the corners of her eyes.

She couldn't help but feel excited. Most federal residents were used to spending money in advance. Even though they were middle class, they didn't have much cash to spare.

In order to buy this house, the couple had spent most of their savings. If they just spent it in their hands, the loss would be too great.

Unlike his wife, a housewife, the man next to him, wearing a neat suit and looking like a professional elite, obviously still had some doubts, but he was too embarrassed to speak for the moment.

As if he could read what the man was thinking, Zhu Mingyao showed his eight white teeth with ease and put on a standard American smile. “Please rest assured, we accept deferred payment. After you have lived there for a period of time and are sure there are no problems, we can then transfer the money to the account on the contract.”

……

Declining the kindness of the client and his wife to drive each other, Zhu Mingyao stretched his muscles in the sun and walked slowly along the roadside.

"Well, let me see, the reward for transcending the Earthbound Spirit this time is a bit small. The system only gave 2 causal points."

The young man opened the system panel in his mind and checked what he had just gained.

"But think about it, it's just a harmless remnant of the deceased, not even a serious ghost. To be able to get a little reward is already a favor given by the big brother of the system.

Besides, you have to be content as a human being. No matter how small the mosquito is, it is still meat. With these two points, it is just enough to upgrade. "

Remembering that he was still on the street, he suppressed the idea of ​​promotion on the spot, quickened his pace, and walked home.

Affected by the Pacific cold current, the Golden State on the west coast is in the rainy season in December. The weather changes at any time. Just a moment ago, it was clear skies and the sun was shining, but now it is surrounded by clouds and the coolness in the wind is getting heavier and heavier.

Zhu Mingyao finally returned to his destination before the first drop of rain hit his head.

An old three-and-a-half-story building located at the end of the street has been his "home" for the past three years.

In front of the door on the first floor, there are several green pots of calamus and mugwort placed on the left and right, with their slender leaves dancing wantonly in the cold wind.

He raised his eyes and looked at the wooden signboard with the words "Zhang Ji Antique Restaurant" written on it. He reached out and pushed open the door in front of him and walked in.

Behind him, the spring-loaded glass door closed automatically. In just a moment, the thin raindrops that gradually intensified coated it with a layer of mist.

As soon as the young man stepped into the store, a lazy voice came over.

"Did you finish the work? What time is it? Why did you come back?"

Following the words, Zhang Shouzhong, the owner of this shop, lifted the blanket on his body and slowly stood up from the lounge chair behind the counter.

Although it was a question, there was not much blame in his tone.

Zhu Mingyao has already accumulated rich experience in dealing with this old man who saved him from the cult priests and took him in today.

"It's just a shadow of resentment and residual thoughts. I finished it early in the morning. I went to the supermarket and bought some fresh mutton and mushrooms. I will make a casserole for you in the evening to get rid of the winter humidity."

He picked up the shopping bag in his hand and answered with a smile.

After saying this, Zhang Shouzhong's face relaxed a little, and he snorted slightly and said:

"Well, you have some filial piety, but I have to go to the Chamber of Commerce for something. I don't know what time I will come back. You don't have to stay open. You can eat by yourself tonight."

Smiling and nodding in agreement, the young man quickly helped the old man put on a thick duffel coat, watched him put on his soft hat, picked up his umbrella and turned around to go out.

Watching the figure gradually go away, and finally disappeared into the hazy rain curtain, Zhu Mingyao turned the sign on the door to [CLOSE], closed the rolling shutter door, turned around and walked quickly into the basement.

Now, it’s time to upgrade!
