Chapter 330 Strengthened mallet (5000 words)
"Ku Zai, why do you have dark circles under your eyes, didn't you sleep well last night?"
Waking up early in the morning, Yan Junze saw Ku Zai looking sluggish.
"You are very weak, you should rest well!" Xiang'er also said.
Ku Zai looked aggrieved.
"Blame me!"
All night he was looking forward to when Xiang'er would come to sleep, so drowsy, but he didn't sleep well, and woke up at the slightest disturbance.
"No, Brother Yan, I might have to sleep after breakfast." Ku Zai shook his head.
"Go to sleep, eat enough, and then go back to the cage to sleep, gain a few more pounds." Yan Junze nodded, "You are in the community, don't go anywhere until we come back, Xiang'er and I have something to do when we go out."
Ku Zai was taken aback, and quickly shook his head: "You, you and Sister Xiang'er went out, what should I do? If there is something weird and I find it again, and Sister Xiang'er is not here? Also, does Sister Xiang'er not sleep? She seems to be sleeping all night. ..."
Yan Junze patted him on the shoulder, and whispered: "Xiang'er always sleeps standing up. As long as you don't leave the community, you are safe, trust me. Well, hurry up and have breakfast."
After his son came back, Li Man cooked a hearty breakfast and went early to buy some buns, steamed buns, scallion pancakes, and soy milk. Eating at the dining table is beyond words.
After breakfast, Ku Zai ran to the bedroom to lie down, but he still didn't dare to sleep on the bed, and slept on the floor.
No way, in his impression, the narrow-mindedness towards Yan Junze has been deeply ingrained, if he sleeps in his bed without the master's consent, what awaits is endless revenge.
Yan Junze and Xiang'er went out, and they went straight to the original "Tuesday Blessing" gold shop. This gold shop was rented by Zhou Dali's aunt's cousin's sister. They worked here, and Yan Junze was already a regular customer.
Last time, Gu Bai, the processing master in the gold shop, helped to make the alloy black spirit mallet for him. Of course, Yan Junze also helped Gu Bai a lot, and saved this guy from being cuckolded by that weird guy who likes to take pictures.
When I went to the store and asked, Gu Bai was still working here.
Walking to the processing room at the back, I saw this guy wearing a loupe on his head and holding tweezers in his hand, carefully repairing a damaged delicate necklace.
Looking up and seeing Yan Junze coming, Gu Bai immediately smiled and asked them to sit down for a while, waiting for him to finish the work at hand.
After sitting down, another young man poured two cups of tea for the two.
The young guy looked vigorous, his eyes kept rolling on Xiang'er's body, and he felt like his saliva was about to flow out.
Yan Junze looked at Gu Bai carefully, and found that he hadn't seen him for a few months. Gu Bai's health was much better, and he no longer looked like he was going to faint when he didn't get enough sleep.
The body is a little fatter, and as the name suggests, it is even whiter.
About twenty minutes later, Gu Bai put down the work at hand, took off the loupe, and looked at Yan Junze apologetically: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, the customer is coming to pick it up soon, so I have to process it quickly."
While speaking, he handed the processed necklace to the guy who had been waiting for a long time.
Yan Junze shook his head: "It's okay, it seems that your life is pretty good these days."
"Thank you very much." Gu Bai walked over, brought over the heated electric kettle, and added some hot water to Yan Junze and Xiang'er's cups.
"This is...your girlfriend." Gu Bai asked with a smile.
"No." Yan Junze replied, "I am a good friend."
Xiang'er raised her head and glanced at Gu Bai with a calm expression.
Yan Junze took out the black spirit mallet from behind as if conjuring, "It's just a holiday, I just came over to ask you to do me a favor, help me inlay two more on this mallet..."
While talking, he took out the black spirit beads, "These two beads."
Gu Bai took the club and the Black Lingzhu, smiled and said, "No problem."
This thing was originally made by him, but now he just made two more inlaid hidden buttons on the surface, embedded the black spirit beads in it, and it was done.
Talking with Yan Junze, he turned around and walked to the processing line, and started to operate.
"My wife is very grateful to you. After you left, she kept saying that she would treat you to dinner when you came back." Gu Bai said.
"No problem, choosing a day is worse than bumping into it, how about today?"
Yan Junze has always disdained such kind words of "treat you to dinner another day", if you want to eat, you can do it now instead of "another day".
Gu Bai was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll call her later and tell her to close the photo studio early today, and let's go to the restaurant to eat."
After the words fell, Gu Bai laughed: "Since the weird incident in the photo studio last time, my wife didn't dare to enter the darkroom anymore, and she didn't dare to play with those films anymore. Later, I directly demolished the darkroom and expanded the photo studio , and Lin Meng no longer touches film cameras, and now uses digital cameras."
"Digital camera is good, at least it's convenient." Yan Junze didn't quite understand, and nodded in agreement.
After about forty minutes, the reprocessed black spirit stick came out of the oven.
This time, in order to take care of the practicality and aesthetics of the mallet, Gu Bai purposely added another six inlaid hidden buttons around the sides where the black spirit beads can be inlaid.
Plus the existing one together, a total of seven black spirit beads can be inlaid on it.
Now there are three black spirit beads occupying three inlaid concealed buttons, and four are vacant.
Of course, the hidden buckle is very strong, and it is impossible for the black spirit beads to fall out directly after being hit by the mallet. Even if you use a tool to dig out the inlaid black spirit beads, it depends on what tool you use.
Yan Junze is very satisfied with this style of big stick.
"These inlaid spare concealed buttons, if you still have this kind of beads in the future, you can find a master to install them, which is very convenient."
After cooling down the stick, Gu Bai explained, indicating that Yan Junze could come over and take it away himself.
Yan Junze stepped forward, reached out and pinched the handle of the mallet, and then his whole arm shook, and the echo produced by the mallet buzzed in his mind.
Visible to the naked eye, the three black spirit beads inlaid on the top of the mallet emitted a black awn at the same time, and the black awns formed a line, circling the mallet, and then the black awn slowly dissipated, lingering like shreds of tobacco spit out from the mouth nowhere to be seen.
Yan Junze strongly felt the power brought by the black spirit mallet, which was extremely full in his hand, and because the whole mallet was surrounded and echoed by the black spirit beads, it was completely different from when there was only one bead .
Invisibly, other energies seem to be absorbed by this mallet. These absorbed energies are not only Yin Qi, but also a little energy from another dimension, and even fear value.
In fact, Yin Qi can be approximately equal to the energy of different dimensions, but the energy of different dimensions is purer.
But the fear value, as Yan Junze sees now, is exclusive to Roque, the owner of Weisi.
The Black Spirit Orb is produced here, so it is not surprising that it can absorb fear.
It’s just that from Yan Junze’s point of view, the speed and utilization rate of energy absorbed by the black spirit mallet in the past are almost negligible, but now it’s different, this mallet is absorbing all the time. You can directly kill a high-level wandering spirit, or even a semi-plastic spirit.
"Roke, if he doesn't like to play, he is also a hidden talent." Yan Junze couldn't help but sigh secretly.
The scene of the black glow emerging from the surface of the club, both Gu Bai and Xiang'er saw it. Xiang'er had long been familiar with everything Yan Junze did here, but her eyes flickered for a moment, and then returned to normal.
Gu Bai was surprised.
Yan Junze inserted the mallet into his trousers, and said with a smile, "I can clear up the weirdness and carry a mallet with me. Isn't that reasonable?"
"Well, reasonable." Gu Bai nodded hastily.
"You are a spirit remover at such a young age!" Gu Bai nodded desperately, "Reasonable, reasonable."
Immediately, he was startled, and found that Yan Junze's mallet, which had been stuck in his pants just now, had disappeared.
Surprised, his eyes swept around Yan Junze's crotch. If possible, he couldn't help but want to reach out and touch it.
Yan Junze looked at him: "As I said just now, as a spirit exorcist, and a very powerful one, it shouldn't be a problem to hide a stick easily, right?"
"No problem, no problem, all reasonable." Gu Bai withdrew his gaze and forced a smile on his face.
Yan Junze was the benefactor who saved him from having green hair on his head. Obviously, Gu Bai would not charge for this club transformation.
Sitting in the "Tuesday Blessing" gold store for a while, it was still early, Yan Junze and Xianger discussed not going home, so they went out for a day of shopping, and bought some nice clothes for Xianger and himself.
Until almost five o'clock in the afternoon, Gu Bai called and said that dinner was booked at Jufulou.
Jufu Building is located in the center of Suncheon City, in a bustling area, and it is usually the only place in Suncheon City that is still a little popular after nine o'clock.
Of course, because there are many patrols here, and there are usually spirit eliminators, so it is relatively safe.
At about six o'clock, Yan Junze and Xiang'er stepped into the pedestrian street near Jufulou, carrying the big bags and small bags of clothes they bought on the street all day. At this time, the pedestrian street was brightly lit and crowded with people.
Gu Bai has arrived, standing at the entrance of the pedestrian street, waiting for them.
After the three met, Gu Bai led the way, quickly entered through a high-end and luxuriously decorated doorway, and took the elevator to the third floor.
When the elevator door opened, it was a very spacious hall, and there were people dining in the hall, as if a banquet was still being held.
Gu Bai invited Yan Junze to choose the "Xishan Yushi" private room for the banquet, and at this moment his wife Lin Meng has arrived.
The three of them walked through the corridor and entered the private room. As soon as they entered, they saw Lin Meng sitting with another strange woman, shoulder to shoulder, looking down at the mobile phone in the woman's hand. Nervous, weird, bewildered look.
"Hey, Ruolan, you're here too!" Gu Bai was obviously a little surprised when he saw this woman.
He just entertained Yan Junze and Xiang'er together with his wife, and he didn't seem to know that this woman named "Ruolan" would also come.
And obviously, this woman came with his wife Lin Meng.
Because Lin Meng is very beautiful, although this Ruolan is also good-looking, compared with Lin Meng, she is still a class behind.
Of course, once Xiang'er appeared at this moment, no one here could compete with her.
After Yan Junze and Xiang'er entered the private room, the eyes of the two women were immediately attracted to Xiang'er from the phone screen. Even when Lin Meng greeted Yan Junze, his eyes were fixed on Xiang'er.
"Long time no see, Ozawa." Lin Meng finally looked away, looking at Yan Junze, with a sweet smile on his face.
After finishing speaking, he pointed to the girl next to him and said, "This is Xia Ruolan, my best friend. I'm sorry, I called her here without your consent."
The woman named Xia Ruolan stood up, nodded to Yan Junze, also apologetic: "For disturbing your reunion, how about this, I'll treat you to this meal..."
"No, no, no, why do you need to spend money?" Gu Bai hurriedly said: "We are entertaining guests, and we can't ask you to pay the bill. Ruolan, don't say such outrageous words!"
Yan Junze has already seen it, and asked Xia Ruolan: "You... came here just for me?"
Xia Ruolan was a little embarrassed, Lin Meng took over the conversation and said, "I'm sorry, Ozawa, I called her here. What my friend Ruolan encountered in the past two days was very strange and terrifying, because it was related to taking pictures. She asked me for advice. I didn't know until you were here. It happened that you were with us today, and I called her over on a whim, can you see if it's convenient for you to listen?"
Lin Meng's words were very tactful. Although she brought Xia Ruolan here forcibly without Yan Junze's prior consent, Yan Junze is not a person who cares about every detail, not to mention whether to help or not, the initiative is still on her own.
It doesn’t hurt to listen to it before the food is served.
"Tell me and listen." Yan Junze said to Xia Ruolan.
Xiang'er was also a little curious, sitting on the sidelines and staring at Xia Ruolan without blinking. In fact, she could have been without blinking.
Gu Bai was a little embarrassed, and looked at Lin Meng complainingly, blaming her for asking someone to come over without telling him in advance, and asking for his opinion.
In case Yan Junze is upset, this is tantamount to offending the spirit eliminators of Suncheon City.
Lin Meng didn't know what he was thinking, and said that Gu Bai just blamed himself for disrespecting him, and stuck out his tongue at Gu Bai, showing a pleading expression.
Seeing his wife like this, Gu Bai, who is a wife-loving maniac, immediately changed his expression from cloudy to sunny, and nodded slightly to express his acceptance.
Xia Ruolan didn't speak immediately, but turned on the screen of the phone she and Lin Meng were watching together just now, and handed it to Yan Junze.
"Yan...Master Yan, please take a look at this photo. This was taken by me and some old classmates at the class reunion last week."
Yan Junze took the phone, and his eyes fell on the photo opened by the phone.
This is a group photo of five people. The background of the photo is the gate of a farmhouse. People can still be seen walking inside the gate. It should be the place where Xia Ruolan and her old classmates gather.
These five people took a group photo in front of an exquisite wooden building, all of them were girls, and they all looked at the camera with smiles on their faces, but only one of the girls turned her head slightly, leaving half of her face facing the camera , and a part of the cheek was covered by the hair.
Looking at it this way, this photo is obviously not well-posed, because the girl's face should have rotated just when the shutter was pressed, and the photo was not fully captured.
"This girl is..." Yan Junze pointed to the woman who was passing by.
"It's me." Xia Ruolan said, with an inexplicable fear in her tone but she was sure, "When this photo was taken, all five of us girls were looking at the camera, and none of us tilted or turned our heads. At that time There were three shots in total, and I picked out this one because everyone seemed so natural, and I deleted the other two."
"You mean, you were looking at the camera when you took the photo, but now in this photo... your head is profiled?" Yan Junze asked with a frown.
As soon as these words came out, Gu Bai couldn't help shivering while sitting next to him, and leaned over to carefully look at the photos on the phone, but felt a chill rising in his heart.
Xia Ruolan didn't seem to want to admit it, but it was the fact that she couldn't deny it, she nodded: "Yes, I discovered the strangeness of this photo five days ago, and I was planning to develop the photo in the printing shop downstairs at that time, But when I turned on my phone, I found that my head was a little off in the photo."
"I didn't feel right when I saw it. I remember that when I selected the photos, I looked very clearly and carefully. My head was straight, but... now... it's turning... now."
Speaking of this, Xia Ruolan herself shuddered, and a layer of goose bumps appeared on her arms, as if the person in the photo was no longer herself.
"When you first found out, where did you turn your head?" Yan Junze asked.
Xia Ruolan said: "It's only turned a little bit, but the hair has fallen down, covering the cheeks a bit, so I can find it immediately."
Yan Junze frowned: "You mean, in the photo, when you turned your head, your hair still fell down?"
"Well, I'm sure." Xia Ruolan nodded.
She has short hair, and the front ends of the hair were hanging by the ears on both sides. Now she nods, and sure enough, two strands of hair have slipped down, covering part of the right cheek, which is exactly the same as in the photo.
But Xia Ruolan naturally put the two strands of hair back to her ears.
"When I looked at the photos later, did I find anything else?" Yan Junze asked again.
Xia Ruolan replied: "I have discovered that she has been turning her head, although she only turns a little bit every day. Look at me in the photo now, I am already facing the camera sideways, and I have turned halfway past."
Speaking of this, Xia Ruolan shuddered again. She was trembling slightly, as if she was too scared to continue speaking.
Yan Junze was silent for a moment, and said, "In other words, the you in the photo took five days to turn your head like this?"
"Hmm." Xia Ruolan's voice was full of tears, "I don't know what to do, this...is it weird?"
Yan Junze raised his head and exchanged a glance with Xianger, then looked at Xia Ruolan, "I can tell you responsibly, yes!"
