Chapter 34 Bottom Line
She just came into the room to deliver tea. I was very surprised. How did she know that Master Liu and I had returned to the room? Could it be that she had been monitoring us? But there are only three rooms on the second floor, one of which is occupied by Master Liu's daughter.
One is where we are. The door of the last one is open. It looks like a bedroom. There are some clutter. I guess it is Master Liu's bedroom. She should live downstairs. What?
I have so many questions about her, but I can only think about them in my mind and don't have much time to ask.
The girl named Qiqi put down her tea and was about to leave, but Master Liu stopped her. At this time, she was obviously in a normal state, her eyes were not wandering, and she had no weird movements. Liu
When the master called her, she stopped and waited calmly for Master Liu's instructions.
"Shen Xing, you will take him to the ghost market next month, and teach him some rules along the way." Master Liu gave this instruction.
After hearing this instruction, the girl named Shen Xing had a hesitant expression on her face. I saw it freshly. Speaking of it, this was the first time I saw a normal expression on her face.
She didn't speak, but Master Liu picked up the teapot in front of him, took a sip of tea and said: "I know what you are worried about. Just go and go. It will only be a week at most. I should take care of you."
It will be taken care of.”
When Master Liu said this, Shen Xing finally nodded hesitantly.
Looking at her leaving figure, Master Liu sighed and suddenly said to her: "It's not an option if this goes on. Can you leave anytime?"
Shen Xing's back shook as he left, and he suddenly said: "Let me stay for a full year, and I only ask for this one year." After saying this very simply, Shen Xing left.
This is the first thing she said in a normal state. She said two words to me before, and her voice was unusually erratic, making it unclear what her original voice was like, but this time I heard it.
Her voice seems to be clear and a bit crispy, which makes people feel that she should be a very cheerful person?
The conversation between her and Master Liu was also incomprehensible. I couldn't understand it, but Master Liu didn't mean to explain it.
But I couldn't help but ask Master Liu: "Is she also a Taoist?"
"She is not, she is just an ordinary girl with the same obsession as me. I admire her very much. An ordinary girl can find a ghost market." Master Liu answered me simply.
This sentence makes me feel weird. It turns out that you also know that you are obsessed with her? Then why don't you let go of your daughter?
I knew there were things I shouldn't say, but at this moment I really couldn't help it. I looked at Master Liu and said seriously: "Master Liu, you might as well let it go. When living is also a kind of pain.
"
The sound of 'bang' was the sound of Master Liu's teapot stamping on the table. His originally calm face suddenly became distorted. It was distorted by anger, and his eyes almost burst out with anger.
Looking at me, it seemed that he wanted to drive me out the next moment.
I originally suppressed my inner thoughts because of my master's affairs, but after all, I still couldn't escape the line in my heart. If I could really turn a blind eye and deliberately pretend to be so-called stable because of my age, then I would not be my master's.
An apprentice.
"What is the bottom line? It is a line that can exceed your wishes and desires. If you can't surpass this, don't say you have any bottom line. What is the bottom line of our lineage? Dao and righteousness, Dao should be understood by oneself, righteousness
It’s not loyalty, you can understand it very simply as conscience.”
Master's words are the motivation that supports me. Now that I have said it, I have no regrets. Facing Master Liu's eyes, I am calm but determined.
A bellows-like wheezing sound sounded in the room. It was the sound of Master Liu gasping because of anger. After a long time, he sneered and said: "You guys are very capable and have a bad temper.
There are so many stinky rules. They are all like stones in a cesspit, but they still like to pop out and tell others.
How to do it! You don’t need to worry about my daughter’s affairs. Come here on the 5th of next month, and I will tell you what to do in the ghost market and how to get there! As for you at that time, you were still like a stone in a cesspit, so did I.
I can’t control you anymore, do it or not, you can’t get any clues from me, just go away.”
I stood up calmly, bowed to him, and left.
Master once said that he was a great father who used his own life to bring his daughter to life. But now, what would Master say? Don’t do it to others? I walked out of the room and glanced at the girl’s room.
He shook his head and walked away.
After going downstairs, Qinhuai was walking back and forth with his arms on his shoulders. As soon as he saw me coming down, he rushed over as if the people who were looking forward to liberation saw the People's Liberation Army, and asked: "Chengyi, how are you? This matter is settled."
?”
"Yes, he has clues. But he needs me to go to the real ghost market. As for what to do, he didn't say." I simply told Qinhuai that I had nothing to hide from him.
"Ghost market? What is it? Brother, can I go?" Qinhuai was excited. Isn't this what he and Su Rou were looking forward to? I even doubted whether this kid would secretly call Su Rou tonight.
These two boys always feel that life is not exciting enough, and they are not afraid of actually kicking the iron plate one day.
I had too many worries and worries in my heart, and I had no interest in talking. I just said tiredly: "Let's talk about it when we get back."
When I returned to the hotel, I briefly chatted with Qinhuai and then sent the boy to bed, because I was always thinking about the circle, so I couldn't help but have a lot of thoughts and memories.
Those thoughts can be summed up in just one sentence, and they are as complicated as a high school student going to college.
What I miss, of course, is my master. I know he is not dead. The word "miss" is too inappropriate, but he has really been away from me for too long.
I tossed and turned in bed unable to sleep, so I finally picked up the phone and dialed Brother Chengqing's number.
"Brother Chengqing? I'm Chengyi."
"It's really good. It's past 3 o'clock in the morning. What's going on? If there's a fortune-telling business, just introduce it to me." Brother Chengqing's voice didn't contain much sleepiness, he was very sober, and he was joking with me.
.
But I know that this is where he is helpless. It is said that fortune tellers have five shortcomings and three shortcomings. They will always be contaminated by the same variety, or some, and who knows, fortune tellers often have some weird and troublesome things due to the number of times they take action.
Small problems.
Take Brother Chengqing for example. His problem is that he often suffers from insomnia. He is happy if he can sleep deeply for 4 hours every day. This is why I called him alone.
"Forget it by introducing someone else's voice, is it worth my senior brother's help? Thank you! Let me introduce my business to you. Don't I have an important place to go to? Can you help me calculate it, can it go smoothly?"
I also said it as easily as possible.
"Where are you going?" Brother Chengqing stopped joking. His simple words and slightly anxious and serious tone already contained his concern.
"Ghost City, I feel a little uneasy, plus Brother Chengqing, do you know our circle?"
"Tell me more details."
I had no intention of hiding him, and of course I told Brother Chengqing everything. No matter who gets the clue, it is everyone's clue. This is a matter of our lineage.
After I finished speaking, Brother Chengqing was silent for a while, and then said: "Let Chengxin accompany you. His temper is smoother and gentler than yours. As for the circle, I know a little bit about it.
, but there is also not much contact. You are in Tianjin now, right?"
"How did you know?" I was curious, could this be counted?
"Oh, caller ID." Brother Chengqing said unusually calmly and briefly.
I broke into a cold sweat and suddenly felt like an idiot. I was about to say something, but Brother Chengqing suddenly said: "Come to Beijing to see me when you have time to discuss in detail! I seem to be sleepy now.
Yes, I’m hung up.”
After saying that, Brother Chengqing hung up the phone. I held the phone and smiled bitterly, but I understood very well, because his sleep is much more precious and difficult than that of normal people, and he is often so weird.
