Chapter 883 - The Doorway to Ask for Money
Hearing this, Xiao Tian almost didn't laugh on the spot, this kind of method of not sleeping in the middle of the night, pretending to be a ghost and scaring people, but it was made decent by this old woman, and ordinary people are afraid that they will really believe it.
But Xiao Tian is obviously not an ordinary person, let alone a fake, even if it is true, he is not necessarily afraid!
The next moment, the old woman said sharply: "Young man, listen to my advice, don't go back tonight, just now I just temporarily drove away the evil thing, if he retaliates again, I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you!"
Xiao Tian's eyes rolled, revealing an expression of great embarrassment, and he said very cooperatively: "But I paid the money, if I don't live, won't the money be spent in vain?" ”
"It's useless. The old woman shook her head helplessly and said, "The evil thing has seen your face clearly just now, and you won't hide even if you change rooms again." ”
"Huh?!"
Xiao Tian pretended to be surprised, and then paced back and forth in place, and said with an anxious expression: "What can I do about this? I just wanted to come out to play, why are you so unlucky to encounter this kind of thing, you must save me." ”
"Don't worry, it's fate to meet Pingshui, I will definitely do my best to help you!" The old woman comforted Xiao Tian with words, and took out a folded yellow paper from her arms.
After unfolding it, I saw the dragon flying and the phoenix dancing on the paper, drawing some incomprehensible characters, like a child's random graffiti.
Although Xiao Tian was not proficient in this way, he could see at a glance that the talisman-like paper in the old woman's hand was really a bit shoddy, or even simply casual.
But at the same time, he also understands that sometimes the more he can't understand something, the easier it is to get through the trick, so he has to wait for the follow-up actions of the old woman.
"Let's be honest, I'm an exorcist, known as Onmyoji in Japan, this is my master's life's work, with the help of cinnabar made of exorcism, pasted on the door to protect any evil spirits can not get close!"
The old woman opened the talisman and displayed it in front of Xiao Tian, while explaining: "I want to be at that level just now, even if there are more than a dozen of them, I can't help you, and the other ......"
He didn't speak, but was interrupted by Xiao Tian, who looked surprised: "Is it so amazing?!"
Being interrupted by someone, the old woman was obviously a little unhappy, but she still nodded patiently and said: "That's right, my master is a very famous onmyoji in Japan, how can the things left by her old man be idle things?!"
"If I hadn't met you, I would have enshrined it as a family heirloom. The old woman said again: "But since my generation is an onmyoji, it is within our duty to kill demons and demons, and it is impossible to watch the evil spirits do it, so I have to endure the pain and cut my love!"
Saying that, the old woman showed a very painful appearance, giving people the feeling that she was reluctant in her heart, but because of her own professional ethics, she had to act like this!
"Good!"
Xiao Tian suddenly shouted, his face turned red and looked at the old woman with gratitude: "Since you are so benevolent and righteous, it will be a petty family if I refuse!"
While speaking, Xiao Tian, who took the talisman directly from the old woman's hand, said: "Great grace is not grateful, if I go to China in the future, I should welcome you upside down to repay today's kindness!"
“……”
The old woman stood there for ten seconds, until Xiao Tian was about to open the door and disappeared from sight.
"Young man, did you understand what I said?" the old woman hurriedly stopped Xiao Tian and said, "The talisman in your hand is very important to me, and it is also valuable in itself, do you want to take it away like this?!"
Xiao Tian's face was inexplicable: "Didn't I say that I would not thank you for my great kindness? When you go to Huaxia, I will definitely give you a reward." ”
The old woman was almost fainted by this bold remark, but her purpose was not to touch the porcelain, but to sell the talisman, and there was also a camera here, Xiao Tian had not touched her, and it was in vain to touch the porcelain.
Thinking of this, the old woman endured the displeasure in her heart and decided to have something to say.
She could see that she couldn't take the kind of vague hints she had in the past for the young man in front of her, who seemed to know how to be polite, otherwise it might end up being in vain.
In the old woman's mind, what she said and the intention she showed were obvious enough that even people who were not very familiar with the world should be able to see it.
And looking at it now, it's one thing to think about it, but it's another thing to put the facts in front of you.
At present, the old woman judged that there were two possibilities for Xiao Tian's performance, the first was that he had already seen what he meant, but because he didn't want to pay money, he chose the path of deliberately pretending to be stupid.
As for the second possibility, he really doesn't understand the world, he doesn't hear the meaning of his words at all, and he is not proficient in observing words and feelings.
However, no matter which possibility it is, for the old woman, it is obviously not something she can accept.
After a while, the old woman opened the door and said: "Young man, let's put it this way, I also see that you and I are destined, so I am willing to give you the talisman left by the master, this treasure has long been a priceless treasure in our onmyoji industry......
After speaking, he stared at Xiao Tian aggressively and confirmed: "I said so, you should understand, right?"
"Got it!"
Xiao Tian nodded with a serious face, but before the old woman could smile, he said again: "You can give such a valuable talisman generously, it is enough to see that your heart is very kind, and you are a qualified and respected onmyoji, when will you go to Huaxia......"
"I'm not going to Huaxia!" the old woman interrupted Xiao Tian's words with an angry voice, her heart was already full of anger, she really had never seen this kind of person.
Even a fool should have heard what it meant, but this young man seemed to be deliberately opposed, and he couldn't understand her intentions, which really made her extremely irritable.
At this point, the old woman doesn't plan to continue to go around in circles, as soon as she is getting older, she is indeed a little unable to support it, and if someone comes out, she will inevitably have trouble when she sees this scene.
So, the old woman's face suddenly turned cold, and after trembling all over, she said in a calm tone: "It's not good, the evil demon came back just now, and this time I brought a lot of helpers, you better return the amulet I gave you." ”
Xiao Tian sneered in his heart, but there was a frightened expression on his face: "Then what should I do?!"
"Young man, to tell you the truth, Master once told me that if one day I were to give the talisman she left behind to someone outside her door, I would have to collect a certain amount of money, or I would be killed. ”
These words are not thorough, and the old woman also believes that the other party will not be incomprehensible, so she carefully observes Xiao Tian's every move to determine the price.
