I almost walked back to the place where I lived in a daze. In the dormitory, Brother Chengxin and Shen Xing were both awake. Seeing me coming back in a daze, they were both a little worried.
At this time, I also realized how bitter it is to be unable to distinguish between dreams and reality.
Fortunately, seeing their familiar faces, I finally slowly adapted to reality and finally returned to my normal state.
This was the last night in the ghost market. After Shen Xing went to bed, Brother Chengxin and I were not half sleepy, but strolled outside the dormitory area.
The ghost market has ended now, and all supervision has been completely relaxed. Many people have chosen to set out overnight. After all, everyone has gained more or less in the ghost market, and setting out overnight can at least give themselves some sense of security. Not to be coveted.
Therefore, when I am walking outside at this moment, I suddenly feel that the prosperity has disappeared. The once lively life will turn into desolation in an instant. What people have to adapt to is never the blooming flowers, but what a person should have after the blooming flowers. of loneliness.
Under this heavy night, there are stars, the waning moon, the breeze, the chirping of insects, and there are too many thoughts, but reality will never tolerate your thoughts wandering too far. Leaning on a big tree, Brother Chengxin is holding him in his mouth pipe, and said to me: "Since this is the case, the clue is with the ancestor, it seems that we must come to the ghost market often. However, this road is difficult, and Kunlun will not be able to speak openly in the future. , I don’t dare to ask about the ancestor’s affairs openly, and I don’t know how many times we will have to go to the ghost market in our lifetime to dig out this clue.”
I also leaned against a big tree, put my hands in my pockets, and said, "Master used a secret method to find the ancestor. I will go back and look through the things Master left for me, and try to learn that secret method. Just asking around won't work. Just a few days, it seems like I've been through it for several years. This world is very complicated, so we have to be careful about everything."
"Secret method? You kid, don't open your mouth for the secret method. Keep your mouth closed for the secret method. It also requires skill to support it. Go find the ginseng essence. As long as I have that, I have a way!" Brother Chengxin's eyes flashed with a strange light, and then he continued Said: "When will we set off to the old forests of Northeast China?"
"There are a few things to do. First, I have to go find Master Liu and exchange with him for the things he promised. Second, I have to do a Feng Shui bureau for the descendants of the old lady. Third, I We need to find a person and teach him the secrets of the Xuanlin family. After these things are done, we will go to the old forest in the Northeast." Unconsciously, I took out a cigarette and lit it. Life is a matter of things. One more cigarette, let's eliminate the eternal sorrow together.
"Okay, you go and do these things. I don't have anything special to do during this period, so just stay in Tianjin! If nothing happens, I'll go to Beijing and have tea with Brother Chengqing. We'll see when Chengzhen comes over. I need to take it easy for a while." As Brother Chengxin spoke, he unconsciously squinted his eyes, looking like he had some ulterior motive.
I chuckled and said, "Come on, you just want to stay with Shen Xing."
"No, what are you thinking about? I am such an upright person..." Brother Chengxin seemed to be shy, lowering his head, one hand kept touching the hem of his shirt, but only for a second, he suddenly raised his head. When I got up, I squinted my eyes, and the 'evil light' appeared, and said to me in a deep voice: "Don't fight with me, Ruxue's..."
I was extremely speechless and covered his mouth. Here it comes again, right? How deep a shadow did Ruxue's incident leave on this guy's heart
But then we both burst out laughing.
The mountain shadows are rolling and the night is clear. We are so happily planning for the future at this moment. But who knows, after the two of them embarked on different journeys, they discovered that life is unpredictable, just like the divination tool in Brother Chengqing's hand cannot predict this. The ups and downs of life!
Everything about Shen Xing, encountering the most dangerous real kid, this life in the future will be too fucking...
--------Dividing line--------
We left the ghost market at around 10 o'clock in the morning the next day. Needless to say, we traveled through mountains and rivers all the way, but we were not as rushed as when we first arrived. Three days later, we returned to Tianjin.
Shen Xing is still the same all the way, a smart, humorous and somewhat guarded girl, and we get along very happily with her.
I thought Shen Xing and I were friends.
But when entering Master Liu's small building, Shen Xing suddenly turned around and smiled at Brother Chengxin and me. Under the bright sunshine, Shen Xing's smile was like a blooming flower, which seemed a bit unreal because it was so beautiful.
Because of my spiritual sense, I have always had something similar to a premonition in my heart. Her smile made my heart feel very sad for no reason, but I didn’t know what I was sad about. It was because Shen Xing returned to this hut, Will he become the nagging person he used to be
Brother Chengxin might not have had the same premonition as I did, but was just a little dazed. Maybe his smile was too beautiful.
I wanted to say something, but before I could speak, Shen Xing suddenly patted me and Brother Chengxin on the shoulders boldly, and said, "You two are very nice, and it's so fun to get along with you." I was very happy for a while, I went to Ang first."
Everything is normal!
Brother Chengxin hurriedly chased after him and said from behind: "It's all about being happy, isn't it? If you want to treat me to a meal, treat me to a meal!"
It’s a very life-like scene, is it just my imagination? I didn't think much about it, but went straight upstairs and found Master Liu's room with ease.
This room is as dim as ever, and Master Liu is sitting hunched behind the big desk as before. I don't know if it's my imagination, but I always feel that Master Liu is older today.
Facing my arrival, Master Liu was not very excited. He just coughed twice and said, "You're back? Sit down."
I carried my backpack and sat down opposite Master Liu. The two of them were silent for a while. I took out the piece of paper that recorded everything he needed from my backpack and pushed it in front of Master Liu.
"Master Liu, it's done. The people recorded above are all people who meet your requirements. You can take a look." I said calmly.
Master Liu tremblingly picked up the tea cup, took a sip of tea, and responded. Then he picked up the piece of paper and began to read it carefully with the help of a dim oil lamp. At the same time, he was also thinking deeply as he read, not knowing what he was thinking about. What.
Just like that, he probably found the piece of paper after looking at it for about 10 minutes. Then he pushed the paper in front of me, pointed to a person's name on it and said to me: "If you can, bring her back to me." Talk to me and I can give you more benefits."
I shook my head and refused, and said: "Master Liu, this is the only thing I promised you before, and I will not do the rest again."
I always feel that what Master Liu is going to do must be something outrageous, and I don’t want to get caught up in it.
Master Liu didn't mind at all. After letting out a few unpleasant laughs, he picked up the tea cup again, drank a few sips of tea, coughed a few more times, and then said: "Chen Chengyi, I am old and very weak." ! I’m so old and weak that my body no longer allows me to go out and do anything... So, I need your help! You can listen to what I have to say below and then decide whether to help me."
I remained silent and didn't speak. In fact, I had already gotten a lot of clues about Kunlun in the ghost market. The clues Master Liu could give me might not be as good as the clues I got in the ghost market. The reason why I insisted on completing the transaction with him , I agreed from the beginning.
Master Liu seemed to see what I was thinking, and said softly: "Little doll, with your character, it's impossible not to collect clues about Kunlun when you go to the ghost market, right? Do you think it's dangerous to collect clues about Kunlun?"
When he said this, there was a sharp light in Master Liu's eyes, which seemed to be pierced into my heart. I was shocked and suddenly thought of what Kunlun said later. Before, I was a fool, I didn't understand anything, I didn't know anything at all. I know what kind of dangerous situation the information revealed to Master Liu would put me in.
But now that I suddenly thought of this, my expression changed!
In the ghost market, I always thought that I was very cautious, but I didn't expect that I would leave such a big loophole before going there.
I really want to try my best to calm down, but the panic expression just now has betrayed me. I am afraid that just by looking at my expression, a person like Master Liu will understand that I at least already know what the Queen of Kunlun is.
The atmosphere is getting a little tense!
But Master Liu suddenly laughed, and then said: "It seems that you also know a lot. Can you guess my identity?"
