My Taoist Career

Chapter 467: Return to the alley

Views:

The retribution of this world manifested itself very quickly on me. When Qinhuai and I went out, my forehead was wrapped with a small piece of gauze and my face was bruised. It looked like I had been beaten a hundred times by Qinhuai. A hundred times.

Qinhuai looked at me with a strange expression, probably because he wanted to laugh, and then he deliberately suppressed his laughter to look like this, and then said: "Retribution, retribution, retribution is really effective for Taoist priests, don't you think so? Cheng one?"

That 'internal injury' of mine, didn't I just scare Qinhuai? As a result, the boy rushed over, knocked over the teapot, burned my legs, and knocked over the coffee table. Then he threw me to the ground, and the coffee table hit me directly in the face, and then I became like this Vice appearance.

"Hahahaha..." Qinhuai laughed arrogantly.

I finally broke out, grabbed Qinhuai and shouted, "If you want to mention this, believe it or not, I will beat you up like this."

"Okay, okay, don't mention it anymore, don't mention it anymore." Qinhuai tried hard to hold back her laughter. I always felt that the boy's appearance was not sincere at all.

Midnight, a little after 12 o'clock.

Qinhuai and I came to the 'ghost market' where Master and I had been before. It used to be very lively here. I clearly remember selling everything. But now it has really become a ghost market, and no one can be seen. one.

"I said Chengyi, you remember correctly, right? This is really a ghost market!" The night in May was still a bit cold. In order to pursue style, Qinhuai wore few clothes while rubbing his shoulders. Said to me.

Although there have been some changes here, they are still within the acceptable range. I looked at Qinhuai and said, "I remember correctly, this is it! Maybe the people here have moved, but this is not my destination. Let's go." , look for it later.”

Qinhuai had no choice but to follow me, but she didn't forget to grab my coat halfway and put it on.

I'm afraid that this kid will catch a cold, so I'll let him. After all, my health is much better than his.

Thanks to my good memory, I walked east and west, amidst strange and familiar scenery, but I still didn’t forget the path I had taken in the past.

I remember that when Master took me here, I walked through an alley that was so quiet that it was almost eerie. After passing through the alley, there was an open space close to the suburbs. But now this alley, if it hadn’t allowed me to see several familiar scenes , I can hardly recognize it, because buildings have been built on both sides, but the alleys between the buildings still exist. The difference is that the once uneven alleys have now become smooth cement roads.

There was only one lamp in the alley, which emitted a dim bluish-white light in the dark alley, making Qinhuai and I, who were walking in the alley, look like two male ghosts. Qinhuai complained: "Chen Chengyi, Please tell me honestly, did you think that I am as beautiful as a flower, brother, and wanted to take me out in the middle of the night and kidnap me?"

I looked Qinhuai up and down with strange eyes and said, "If you are as beautiful as a flower, then the flowers in this world should be something else, right? Let me think about it, like cow dung or something." "

"It's okay, you are a man and don't know how to appreciate my beauty." Qinhuai, this kid, has no awareness that he is in his thirties.

I was too lazy to argue with him, so I said, "Okay, when Master and I came here before, there weren't even any lights here. Are you satisfied?"

But Qinhuai didn't respond for a long time. I turned my head and looked at Qinhuai, but Qinhuai stayed there and didn't move for a long time.

I walked over, patted Qinhuai on the shoulder, and said, "What's wrong with you? Why are you standing here?"

Qinhuai suddenly grabbed my arm, and then said to me with a frightened look: "Chengyi, I may have opened my eyes!"

"What?" I thought I heard wrong.

"Really, Chengyi, I may have opened my eyes. Just now I turned around accidentally and saw a woman coming in at the entrance of the alley. I wanted to see if she was a beauty. As soon as you spoke, I was distracted, and then When I looked back, the woman was gone again." Qinhuai said to me very seriously.

I didn't feel any Yin Qi from the moment I entered the alley. Qinhuai suddenly said that he saw a woman, and she disappeared suddenly, which meant that she was a ghost. There is no way that her spiritual sense is much stronger than his, and I couldn't feel it. I feel it.

Besides, a ghost that can be clearly seen by ordinary people in a sober state must be extremely evil. Therefore, I just thought about it for a moment and said to Qinhuai: "You can open the eyes of the sky if you have the eye of a needle." It’s unrealistic, let’s go, maybe it’s just a passerby.”

"I'm telling you, I saw it right, I..." Qinhuai argued hurriedly.

But at this moment, I stopped talking, because I also clearly saw a woman walking into the alley, carrying a bag of steaming food in her hand. If I remember correctly, she was very far away from this alley. Nearby, there was a stall selling food at night. At that time, I felt that the city was being built too fast. There were now late-night snack stalls in places that were once very remote.

Seeing this woman walking in like this, I immediately understood what was going on. Maybe she wanted to go back, but I thought about it and went back to buy some midnight snacks to pack.

I pulled Qinhuai and said to him: "Look carefully, you are talking about a female ghost."

Qinhuai stared dumbfounded at the woman walking towards us not far away. After a long while, he sighed and said: "Okay, brother, I am so happy for once. This day, brother, I am willing to use my Sky Eyes." I want to trade in my car, I’m so curious.”

"Oh, you will definitely regret it." I said lightly.

While Qinhuai and I were talking, the woman carrying the midnight snack had already walked up to us. I had no intention of paying attention to her, but Qinhuai and I were talking about others just now, so I glanced at her.

But it was this glance that gave me a strange feeling. When a woman meets two grown men in an alley like this, no matter how she pretends to be nonchalant, her eyes are definitely defensive.

But this woman is different. She turns a blind eye to us and doesn't care at all.

If this is not strange enough, the strangest thing is that she has a strange smile on her face. If this smile is placed on ordinary days, it is not strange for a few people to go together, let alone strange.

But in this environment, when I suddenly saw it, it was absolutely strange, so strange that it gave people goosebumps, because that smile was obviously the faint smile of a person listening to what another person was saying. How could she be alone? Will you have that smile

I closed my eyes and felt carefully. I was sure that I didn't feel any negative magnetic field, which meant that I didn't smell any 'ghost smell'. Finally, I came to the conclusion that this woman's brain was a little bit... Child problem

But at this moment, Qinhuai slapped me on the shoulder. His eyes were excited and touched. He said, "Chengyi, who used to look at beauties with me, is finally back!"

I looked at him speechlessly. To be honest, I really didn't think about whether the woman was beautiful or not just now.

But Qinhuai was already looking at the entrance of the alley longingly and said, "I really don't know if we will meet this beauty again?"

"Come on, do you expect every beautiful woman you have ever seen to meet you again?" I said helplessly.

But Qinhuai looked at me seriously and said, "Yes, how did you know?"

Then, I was speechless and had to walk forward silently. But as I walked along the way, I felt uneasy. After all, after so many years, the city has developed to such an extent. After walking through this small alley, , does the house where the talisman seller used to live still exist

I absolutely do not believe that I can see that empty land again and see a real ghost market. That kind of ghost market cannot be in a place like this, or it may have been moved to another place.

I just came to take a look. I didn't have high hopes, but I didn't understand why I was feeling uneasy at this time.

Finally, we walked out of the alley, and sure enough, the open space no longer existed, replaced by residential buildings. Although the buildings were not very high, they also represented the changes in things and people here.

I sighed in disappointment and looked around casually, but the next moment my heart started beating violently.

What I didn't expect was that Qinhuai got one thing right after all.
