Then I quarreled with Fang Pengguang for a while. I was really tired. I told him to go away. I was really tired too. The physical pain was secondary. The main thing was that this society was too fucked up. Everyone was changing. The only thing that didn't change was me.
Lying on the bed and looking at the ceiling, I suddenly remembered the master's notes. I rummaged through my backpack and found them. I really didn't have time to read them before. Now I can finally take a good look at them and learn about the master's past. I opened the book and of course skipped the first page. I found that it was something like a diary. And it was in a jumpy way. It didn't record everything I ate, drank, defecated, and urinated every day. It only recorded some important things.
…
May 10, 1963. Today we are ready to explore that mysterious cave with them. I heard there are many treasures in it. Haha. I will make a fortune. I am so excited.
May 13, 1963. At this time, we no longer knew where we were in the cave. This place was too big. There were also terrifying monsters. And I didn't see the treasure they talked about. I regretted coming to this place.
May 14, 1963. Food was getting scarcer and everyone was on their guard. No one trusted anyone. Our team was just a mob. Alas, I was no longer in the mood to look for treasure. I just wanted to go home.
May 15, 1963. Haha. There is really a treasure here. A lot of gold. And I secretly found a book. There is no name. But I think the book that can be put together with so much gold must be extraordinary. So I quietly hid it...
I frowned as I looked at these diary-like things. It seemed that this was the experience of Master when he was young and went treasure hunting. And it seemed that he didn't know Taoism at that time. And the book he found should be Zhuge Liang's handwritten notes. Sure enough, when I continued to read, it was almost two months later.
July 8, 1963. After studying for so long, I finally figured out the purpose of this book. I didn't expect it. Haha. Zhuge Liang's handwritten notes. I'm so lucky. I'll definitely get a lot of money if I sell it to a museum.
July 10, 1963. Those bastards are really ignorant. They actually said that this book is useless. But this is clearly Zhuge Liang's handwritten notes. You ignorant guys. Well, since you say it is useless, then I will learn from it and prove that this handwritten note is useful.
When I saw this, I immediately broke out in a cold sweat. I really don't know what the master was thinking at that time. He actually wanted to sell this rare book to the museum. When Zhuge Liang knew about it, he must have been angry and revived. But it seems that my master learned Taoism by accident. It was really the arrangement of fate.
July 1, 1965. It was really hard to learn. It took two years to achieve some success. But. Hehe. I can actually calculate how long a person can live. The person just now really died. Haha. It's amazing. I just suddenly have a few more white hairs on my head. But it's no big deal.
It's been two years since I saw this. It seems that the master only had the ability to tell fortunes two years later. But he still looks like a rookie. He was so happy to calculate when a person would die. And the extra white hair should be a disadvantage.
January 2, 1971. As I became more and more skilled at fortune-telling, my fame grew. But why do I always feel like someone is watching me from behind? Is this an illusion? Not really. As I explore destiny, I feel more and more that something is controlling me, even my every word and action. This feeling is really painful. Why do I feel this way? What is it? Is it destiny
On May 3, 1984, I calculated it. I finally calculated my life span. But why? Why can I only live to 50? What can I do with the remaining five years
May 4, 1984. Seven-star lantern. Is there such a thing? Perhaps this is the only way to escape fate.
July 11, 1984. Success. The Seven Star Lamp is indeed magical. My life span has indeed increased by 12 years. It’s just that the materials are too hard to find. Oh, I don’t plan to continue fortune-telling. This will only make my life span slip away faster. Finding a place to live in seclusion is also a good idea.
February 3, 1985. Hongye Village. It's really nice. Although this mountain is a little weird, it doesn't matter. I decided to live here.
I was excited when I saw this. The next part should be about my life story. Sure enough.
August 12, 1991. Today, the Wu couple came to my house and asked me to save their child. But I haven't done anything for a long time. And that demon baby is not that easy to deal with. It's difficult.
August 14, 1991. I like Wu Jiu very much. I don't have any children. I will be much happier with him.
This is the last one. I see that the master didn't add any detailed records here. It seems that he still doesn't want me to know the truth. Although it is still very vague, I still have a general understanding of the master's past. Thinking of this, I put the book down.
"Knock, knock, knock..." Suddenly there was a knock on the door. I looked up and saw that it was Fang Pengguang. He came in with three cups of milk tea, smiling.
"Why are you back again? Didn't I tell you to get out?" I smiled at Fang Pengguang.
"No. I just bought three cups of milk tea downstairs. I can't finish them all by myself, so I brought them up for you to drink too." Fang Pengguang handed me a cup of milk tea and said.
"No, why did you buy three cups of milk tea? Can't you just buy one cup for yourself?" I asked in confusion.
"Yeah. At first I thought the same as you. I just wanted to buy one cup. Then the boss said three cups for ten yuan. If you sell it individually, it's three yuan per cup. I'm not stupid, right? I can't be fooled by him. It's obviously a scam. So I used nine yuan and bought three cups, one after another. The stupid boss was stunned. He probably hasn't seen someone as smart as me. Others buy three cups for ten yuan, but I only pay nine yuan." Fang Pengguang raised his head and said to me proudly.
I suddenly understood something. I said faintly, "Is it that the boss always sells three cups every time?"
"I'm not sure about that. I can go ask for you." Fang Pengguang said, scratching his head.
I sighed. This kid, that boss is really business-minded. He can come up with such a dirty trick. But it can't be considered a dirty trick. I can only say that he is smart. After all, he didn't raise the price by a penny. I still buy it at the original price. It's just that the statement is different.
"Okay. It's a good thing that your father is the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau. No one dares to sell you out. Otherwise, with your IQ, you would have been sold out sooner or later. And you would have been the kind who helped them count the money.
Fang Pengguang scratched his head and laughed. He said, "I wasn't cheated out of this little money. I just didn't want to say anything. Otherwise, do you really think someone could cheat someone as smart as me
"Yes. And I think there are quite a few." I thought for a moment and nodded.
"Get lost. If you want to drink, drink. If you don't want to drink, forget it." Fang Pengguang said with a smile.
"Hey, by the way, have you found Qi Chaoyang? He should have been nearby that night." I suddenly remembered that guy Qi Chaoyang. He was a nuisance. I had to kill him to feel at ease. Otherwise, I was afraid that he would do something to me at any time without knowing why.
"Oh, right. If you hadn't asked me, I would have almost forgotten. Actually, the main reason I came here this time was to tell you about Qi Chaoyang. But I forgot everything because of the commotion just now." Fang Pengguang slapped his forehead and said, "Qi Chaoyang is really nearby this time. He also left clues. We chased him all the way and found one of their bases. It was a mansion. But we didn't act rashly because we were afraid that they would use some evil magic. If that happened, it would be bad if we had some casualties. So my dad asked me to ask you to go and take a look."
I nodded and said, "Just let Uncle Fang arrange for someone to look after it. I can't take risks in my current condition. I have to wait until I recover before I can do anything."
At this time, I also made killing Qi Chaoyang and the people of Miao Wujiao my first priority. After all, they would stab me in the back. And Hanba was too far away from me. There was no rush to find Hanba bones. To put it bluntly, even if Hanba was born, I would hide in Chengdu. I didn't believe he could come to Chengdu from Liaoning. It was pure nonsense.
Fang Pengguang nodded, took out a few documents from his bag and handed them to me. He said, "This is all the information about the mansion. It is a villa built on the mountain. According to our recent investigation, they have lived in it for nearly half a year. But there has been no major movement. Last night was one of them. There are three people living in it. Qi Chaoyang is one of them. The other two are unknown. Now we have people lying in ambush and observing with telescopes. We can know even if Qi Chaoyang goes to the toilet."
"Well, don't act rashly. Wait until I recover and then the three of us can go there together." I said to Fang Pengguang.
"Why should we take me with us? I will only be a burden if I go. It's best not to take me with you." Fang Pengguang immediately shook his head when he heard me ask him to go with us.
"Pengguang, I promised Uncle Fang that I would make you a qualified disciple of a horse spirit. Although I don't know the skills of a horse spirit, I can train you in other aspects. Only after you have experienced the trials of life and death in person can you learn a lot. You understand what I mean." I said to Fang Pengguang.
Fang Pengguang was silent for a while after hearing what I said. Then he said, "Okay. OK. I understand."
"Well, I'm glad you understand. All right. Get ready. When I recover from my injury, we'll go to that mansion together. I want to see what dangers are inside."
