What status? I didn't react at once. I was still immersed in the tension of having my identity revealed. Master Liu suddenly asked me to guess his identity. How could I possibly guess it
Seeing my stunned look, Master Liu smiled, just like the cracked peel of a dried orange. Then he stood up with his hands behind his back, walked to the shelf behind him, and began to rummage around lovingly. He turned over and over again without looking back, and just said to me: "My ability in making talismans and refining weapons, in this China, I would say second, no one dares to say first! So, you In the lineage of Lao Li, your master is so proud, and every time he needs something, he will come to me, do you understand?"
While he was talking, he smiled at me again. This smile looked like cracking orange peel, which was not pretty! But it just affected my mood so much that I seemed to grasp the key point. I almost jumped out of my chair, then pointed at Master Liu and said: "You...you...you are..."
Forgive my incoherence, I just got the news in the ghost market that if I want to find Kunlun, I must find Kunlun people or Kunlun people. I didn't expect that Master Liu who was in front of me at this moment actually hinted to me that he was!
Master Liu ignored my excitement, sat back in his seat, and said calmly: "I originally planned to tell you some news about Kunlun. Depending on how well you can handle things, I can also provide you with a connection, because Everyone who is famous in the circle will buy things from me. Guess whose connections I will provide you with?"
I am so excited that I can't even speak. I am not stupid. I know what he means is that he will provide me with my master's connections. As long as I can grasp these clues, I will not worry about figuring out my master's trajectory and find Kunlun. .
Master Liu is a master of fishing. He has successfully made my fish bite the hook tightly and refuse to let go! Even my breathing became heavy.
"Well... I don't have any other wishes in this life. I just want to live a normal life with my daughter and let my daughter enjoy the life of a normal girl. I'm sorry for my daughter's mother. This can't be made up for. I... ." Master Liu's words became softer and quieter. By the end, I could hardly hear him clearly.
But at this moment, Master Liu raised his head and said: "What do you think? You have to help me bring that person back to negotiate with me. I will give you more information and provide you with a complete network of contacts in your master's circle! And you If you can help me complete the spell, I will give you eight words, the eight most critical words about Kunlun. With these eight words, you at least know how to embark on the road to Kunlun. Otherwise, no matter how much you know, Kunlun will still be Kunlun. It’s also out of reach for you!”
I was so excited that I almost lost my mind. I slammed the table and shouted: "Deal!"
Master Liu showed a smile like an old fox, coughed twice, lazily pointed at the name on the paper, and said: "Then what else is there to say? Bring her back."
When I went downstairs, I found Brother Chengxin waiting for me downstairs. I saw him and asked him, "Why are you here outside?"
"How do I know? After Shen Xing went upstairs, he talked about important things and didn't want to accompany anyone. Once the door was closed, it didn't open again! Why was I standing there by myself? I just came out and waited. You. What did Master Liu say to you?" Brother Chengxin asked.
"Let's go, get a room first, take a shower and rest before we talk." Actually, I was a little tired.
Brother Chengxin glanced at the small building with nostalgia, probably thinking about Shen Xing, but he had no other choice, so he left with me.
--------Dividing line---------
When I embarked on the journey again, I was alone again. According to what he said, Brother Chengxin stayed in Tianjin and rented a room very close to Master Liu's residence. It was okay to guard Shen Xing. Enjoy yourself.
As for Shen Xing, I haven’t seen him since I came back.
Because my schedule was so hurried, I didn't have time to notify anyone when I came back this time, including Brother Chengqing and Qinhuai. After just staying in the hotel for a day, I had already boarded a bus bound for a small town.
After driving on the highway for nearly 5 hours, the bus arrived at my destination—that small town!
But in this strange town, I didn’t stay much longer, and I wasn’t even in the mood to take a walk. At the station, I hurriedly changed trains and got on another bus bound for a small county town.
The car was driving on an old national highway, and it was a little shaky. After walking on the national highway for a while, it turned directly onto a road that was not sure how old it was, and the car was shaking even more.
Most of the people sitting in the car were some villagers. There were some chickens and ducks in the front of the car. When the car shook, the chickens and ducks screamed "chirp" and "quack". I sat in the back of the car and was shaken. Some are drowsy, and some feel sorry for their running around, and they always go to remote places.
I don’t know how long I have been shaking, but I finally arrived at the small county town. It was said to be a small county town, more like a countryside. There were only two streets going back and forth. There were some small shops selling groceries around, as well as some residential houses and small restaurants.
I looked at the addresses on the paper and asked around one by one. The residents of these towns were quite enthusiastic in giving me directions.
When I asked for the specific address, an uncle looked at me strangely and said, "What are you doing there? Isn't that Guan Lunzi's home?"
Guan Lunzi’s home? I frowned slightly. If I remember correctly, the girl I was looking for was called Guan Laidi. It seemed that I was not wrong. The information given by the old lady was quite accurate.
"Oh, his family seems to be somewhat distantly related to me. I came here deliberately to inquire. Uncle, can you take me there?" I had no choice but to tell a random lie.
As a result, the uncle looked me up and down for a while and said, "Guan Lunzi's family is lucky to have a rich relative from the city here. Let's go, let's go, I will lead the way."
Are you blessed? But I feel uneasy in my heart. I don’t know what I bring to others, and I always feel that what I am doing is not very authentic!
However, there may be no buts and reasons. One cause and one effect. If I did this today, I am destined to bear it.
Guan Lengzi's home was quite far away. The uncle took me on a long and winding path, and then I saw a dark house in the distance. This house had long been separated from the so-called "prosperous area". It's at the intersection of those two streets, almost at the edge of the town.
When we got here, the uncle pointed to the dark house and said, "That's right there. You can go over there. I won't go. It's not easy to deal with that family."
It's rare for an uncle to be so honest and bring me here in person. I chased after him and took fifty yuan and forced it into his hand. The uncle didn't accept it at first, but then he accepted it with some embarrassment, saying "Guan Lunzi is blessed." If the relatives in the city are not bad, then they will go far away.
I took a deep breath and walked towards the dark house with an inexplicable guilty feeling. Although Master Liu once emphasized that he would not force people, because it is useless to force people, and he will make up for it, but in my heart I always feel that Master Liu’s technique must be very unnatural. Am I right to do this
However, I am not a saint. After all, I could not defeat my obsession, so I still walked into this house.
This is a dirty and simple house. There is not even a decent gate in the yard at the entrance. It is just a fence gate. You can enter with a slight push.
The dirty yard didn't even have a layer of cement, it was just a mud yard. Several little girls stayed in the dirty yard, chasing each other and even rolling on the ground. Their clothes and pants were all dusty. , the youngest one, probably only one or two years old, had a runny nose with no one to wipe it, biting his finger, watching the sisters playing around, and just giggling there.
None of the children in the yard cared about my arrival. I stood stupidly at the entrance of the yard, not knowing what I should say.
At this moment, a man who seemed to be walking a little unsteadily came out of the house and cursed at the top of his voice: "You losers, why are you still acting crazy in the yard? Just work for me. "
After yelling this, the man finally noticed my presence.
