Chapter 22
Pu Haobai sat on the ground holding a spirit stone in his hand, closing his eyes to regulate his breathing, while Lu Shi stood beside him and frowned.
The difference in Pu Haobai's condition was much beyond his expectations, and even the basic communication was very problematic. Lu Shi was very clear that talking about business and making money with a person who was not very conscious was not very clear, and talking about playing the piano with a cow. This also made the rhetoric he prepared in advance had to be adjusted.
Fortunately, saying different things to different people is the most important basic skill for actors, and Lu Shi's identity as the actor, made him deeply paranoid about it.
To deal with people who are not good at using their brains, you must come up with a special set of methods. Judging from the experience of Lu Da’s actors for many years, his current priority should be to accurately evaluate Pu Haobai’s psychological state, see through his ideas, find out his logical loopholes, and then reshape his thinking framework with a statement he is most willing to accept, with the purpose of making him willingly hand over all the antiques, and finally he has to say thank you loudly.
Simply put, it is just two words - brainwashing.
There is no doubt that this is a very skill-test challenge.
In the opinion of Movie Master Lu, people with no brains in this world are not much different in ways, and they have a mature way to deal with such people. But there are millions of people with bad brains. Every person with bad brains is a unique and unique flower in this world. Before you understand in depth, you can't imagine what the stubbornness is in his brain, and you can't imagine what angle he will think about the problem from.
Fortunately, strangeness is strangeness after all. No matter how his brain grows, it is not normal in the end. Then the loophole must exist. As for whether the loophole can be found, and whether it can break through and achieve its own goals, it is time to truly test its acting skills.
And now, the actor Lu Da is ready.
After adjusting his breathing, Pu Haobai slowly stood up. The lines on his face became softer, but his eyes were still a little stunned. Lu Shi rolled his eyes three times and showed a friendly and lovely smile.
But before Lu Da Movie King's smile could be adjusted to the most appropriate point, his expression suddenly froze. Because Lu Shi clearly saw that a human face suddenly appeared on the earth wall behind Pu Haobai, and that face was not someone else, it was the God of Wealth that made him miss day and night and dream about!
The God of Wealth moved his eyes, and it was obvious that the lineup in front of him was a bit unexpected. He stretched out his finger and made a gesture of silence. Then, the face shrank back from the earth wall.
Lu Shi subconsciously cleared his throat, then sniffed hard, and suddenly felt a little at a loss.
The degree of the God of Wealth is so elusive that you are too imaginary. You said you won’t come early or late, but you came at this time. I was about to discuss business with the next company, but your previous company suddenly appeared. How could you negotiate this business? It doesn’t matter if you are here, but my identity has changed from an independent businessman to a second-hand dealer! I lost my confidence! I can’t show my acting skills!
How about the business being negotiated later?
But if you miss it today, you won’t have this atmosphere. I just spent several spirit stones to peel this guy. The difficulty of changing the time will be doubled!
Or just make do with it? By the way, let the God of Wealth see the business talent of his business partner? Is this good? Perhaps... maybe... it's okay?
Lu Shi was very entangled, but Pu Haobai had no idea what was happening behind him. He just stood in front of Lu Shi stiffly and bowed: "Thank you, Senior Brother Lu."
"Uh..." Lu Shi was a little out of the show, and he finally calmed down and arrived: "Senior Brother Pu is so polite."
Pu Haobai shook his head in panic: "Pu can't bear the title of this senior brother, so it's good if the senior brother calls me junior brother."
"Senior brother is such a bad word. He will be a senior brother for one day and a senior brother for the rest of his life. Lu is not the villain who will be arrogant when he is in power." Lu Shi said hurriedly, but his smile was a little stiff. Fortunately, Pu Haobai could not notice any difference in his current state.
Pu Haobai nodded silently with expressionless face, but the slightly trembling little finger showed that his mood was not as calm as the surface.
Lu Shi is worthy of being a veteran actor. When he sees this posture, he simply ignores everything else. Since the God of Wealth does not want to show up, he will at least negotiate the business first. Pu Haobai is now a rare product, and if he misses this village, there will be no store.
"Senior brother has reduced a lot recently." Lu Shi carefully observed Pu Haobai's reaction while speaking.
Pu Haobai shook his head gently: "It's okay."
Lu Shi frowned: "Senior brother is here to concentrate on digging antiques every day?"
Half of Pu Haobai's body trembled obscurely: "I dare not slacke in a century's share."
"Are you satisfied with the harvest?" Lu Shi bent down slightly, trying to see the expression hidden on Pu Haobai's face buried in his chest.
"It's okay, it's okay." Pu Haobai's twitching face could not be hidden from Lu Shi after all.
It is really hard to say what a person will become after a major change. It is hard to imagine how much psychological gap caused by Pu Haobai's fall from the clouds to the mud pit will affect him. It is hard to imagine how much psychological trauma caused to him by public humiliation is even more difficult to quantify.
However, from the preliminary contact, Lu Shi felt that there was a certain problem with Pu Haobai's brain, but it was not so serious that he lost his basic judgment, but his self-control had a significant decline.
From his reply without any verbal remarks, it is obvious that he is deliberately keeping his behavior normal. However, while he tries his best to keep his language and movements inappropriate manner, he is unable to control the subtleties of his body that will cause abnormal movements as his thoughts change.
This phenomenon is a typical sign that the spirit is about to lose control. If this situation occurs in an ordinary person, then this person is not far from madness. If this situation occurs in a monk, then more than 90% of the person may be - this person has already gone mad.
If you are crazy, don't pretend? Lu Shi decided to stimulate him:
"Senior Brother Pu really plans to dig out a hundred-year-old antique and hand it over to the bastard named Jin?"
Upon hearing this, Pu Haobai jumped backward unconsciously, and waved his hands in fear: "Senior brother, don't talk nonsense! Don't talk nonsense!"
Lu Shi shook his head and said, "There is no outsider here, what else can I avoid? Everyone knows that the person surnamed Jin is a bastard! Senior Brother Pu once made so many contributions to the sect, but he was so sad that he did not miss the old love at all. Instead, he forced his brother to this field, which was really heartbreaking."
Pu Hao opened his mouth so hard that he couldn't believe that Senior Brother Lu was so brave that he had arranged the sect without any concealment.
Looking around like a nervousness, the cold sweat on Pu Haobai's forehead fell to the ground and fell into eight petals: "Senior brother, don't say loudly, be careful of the ears of the wall."
Lu Shi choked hard by his saliva, thinking that mentally ill people are so sensitive? The word "ear" in the wall is really appropriate.
Fortunately, Lu Shi knew that the ears on the other side of the wall had nothing to do with the surname Jin, so he continued to follow his own ideas: "Senior Brother Pu, I think you should not dig up any bullshit antiques here. Think about it, when will the share of a hundred years be dug? And what if you dig it enough? Let's take a step back, what if he let you go this time? What kind of ruthless villain do you expect to live under his hands?"
Pu Haobai's body was trembling, and his mouth began to loosen: "The young master did not allow me to leave the remains. What can I do if I don't dig antiques here?"
Lu Shi nodded secretly and thought to himself: Yes! What else can you do if you don’t dig antiques in the ruins? If you don’t dig antiques in the ruins, what will I do if I look for you all the way?
Of course, Lu Shi wanted Pu Haobai to dig up antiques, but he couldn't say this. He sighed and shook his head: "It's really...ah!"
Pu Haobai opened his mouth unconsciously as Lu Shi sighed, and the gloom on his eyes became heavier.
"Senior brother is really willing to stay in this dark tunnel for a hundred years?" Lu Shi added another fire.
"Of course it's impossible!" Pu Haobai was furious when he heard this, and he roared and blurted out.
Lu Shi lowered his voice: "Senior Brother, what are your plans?"
Pu Haobai's mouth twitched a few times, without making any sound. Lu Shi stared at his eyes covered with red blood and yellow dirt.
"I...I..." Pu Haobai had been competing with him several times, and seemed to have a lot of words that didn't vomit quickly, but he was also worried.
"Does senior brother trust me?" Lu Shi's voice sounded faintly.
Pu Haobai looked at Lu Shi's eyes blankly and shook his head subconsciously.
Lu Shi was so dark, thinking that if someone was crazy, would he become so straightforward? If he didn't trust me, then I could only start acting.
Two tears instantly appeared in the corner of my eyes, and the actor's voice became choked: "Lu Shi didn't dare to forget the kindness that my senior brother gave me back then for a moment. Now, seeing my senior brother like this, I can't use it with strength, and the sorrow in my heart is like a knife."
When he heard this, Pu Haobai's eyes turned red uncontrollably.
When Lu Shi saw it, he thought he had a way! His infectiousness was indeed not something he could do.
"If you have any difficulties, you must tell me. Even if you are crushed to pieces, Lu Shi will never bear to live a life of grievance when he sees his senior brother." Lu Shi continued to act.
"Young brother, don't worry about me." Pu Haobai spoke, and the moment he spoke, two lines of clear tears rolled down uncontrollably.
Lu Shi was overjoyed. What he was happy about was not Pu Haobai's two lines of tears, but what he was happy about was that Pu Haobai's name for him turned from senior brother to junior brother!
What does this mean? It definitely means that Pu Haobai has begun to trust him.
When Lu Shi thought of this, he quickly continued to talk:
"Senior brother is trapped in this pit and cannot see the future at all. How can I not worry about my senior brother!"
Pu Haobai looked up at Lu Shi's sincere face, then raised his hand to cover half of his mouth, and said in an almost inauspicious voice: "I am trying to improve my cultivation. Sooner or later, I will make the Jin surname look good."
"What?" Lu Shi covered his mouth with both hands in surprise, but he quickly put his hands down. He realized that the show was a little over and was a little exaggerated, so he adjusted his expression without a trace: "Senior brother, is he a complete cultivation of Qi cultivation?"
Pu Haobai nodded.
"Does... Senior brother is planning to build the foundation?" Lu Shi spoke a little slow, but his mind was running rapidly.
"That's right." Pu Haobai nodded heavily.
"Here?" The confusion on Lu Shi's face was very appropriate.
Pu Haobai nodded again.
"Use antiques to build the foundation?" Lu Shi's doubt this time was probably about eight out of his true feelings.
Pu Haobai trembled his hands and took out a lot of antiques from the Qiankun bag on his waist, and whispered mysteriously: "Junior brother, look, I have a lot of antiques, can I use them to build the foundation?"
Lu Shi was stunned on the spot. He felt that he might have made a mistake. The madness of this senior brother Pu is probably not much worse than he expected.
