Chapter Eighty-Three: The Prediction of Fate
As soon as he finished speaking, the door opened.
A gust of wind blew, but there was not half a figure.
Li Hao's face was a little pale, whether it was this weird thirdthreestreet, or the old man in front of him who had lived for a long time and had mysterious abilities, they all subverted his original worldview of the world: ordinary streets can be so desolate and deserted, to some extent, they are no longer streets, this is simply a ghost street! In addition, let's say that this immortal old man is 200 years old, but can ordinary people live to be 200 years old? Moreover, this old man seems to have strange powers that can control other people's bodies......
Suddenly, Li Hao's heart jumped, and he remembered what Anqi said to himself that night - ability!
However, it seems that there has never been a trace of a supernatural in this world, right?!
So my luck is so good, the stranger actually let himself meet, I don't know whether to cry or laugh.
Li Hao's face was as pale as a blank piece of paper, but the old man on the side still looked peaceful, drinking the wine in the cup unhurriedly, and said slowly: "Since you are here, you don't show up, it seems a little impolite, right?" ”
Before the old man's last word fell, a figure slowly appeared at the gate.
It was dark all around, and in the darkness, the figure of the person who came was blurred, but it was faintly visible, and he was walking slowly towards Li Hao and the old man with a cane...... Strangely, the figure seemed to be right in front of him, but he didn't see anyone for a long time.
Holding back the fear in his heart, he turned his head to look at the old man, who was still drinking, but his eyebrows seemed to be raised a little higher, and he shouted with some dissatisfaction: "Don't grind, if you want to drink, you can drink quickly!" ”
The figure finally became clearer, and Li Hao finally saw the appearance of the person who came: he looked like a middle-aged uncle, wearing a simple peasant shirt with an oil color to wipe clean, and the clothes were very old, with patches and wrinkles in many places. The uncle has a light beard, dark skin, a standard Chinese face, and although his figure is hidden under a plain shirt, his sturdy figure can still be seen. However, unlike the old man next to Li Hao, his eyes are very gentle, and the first feeling he gives people is stability!
He was wearing a pair of slippers, but judging by his limping appearance, his right leg must be disabled. Li Hao's gaze quickly fixed on his waist...... Because, around his waist......
Strap on a sheathed sword!
The sword body was very long, and it dragged to the feet of the middle-aged uncle, and the scabbard dragged on the ground, making a sound of rubbing against the ground, but he didn't care at all, and still walked confidently.
He came across from the old man, smiled, and sat down casually on a pile of fruit peels.
"Where's the stuff?" The old man's drooping eyelids seemed to move, and he raised them casually and glanced at the uncle in front of him.
The uncle smiled kindly, and took out a cloth bag from his patched bag, and then he untied the cloth bag, and suddenly a burst of aroma filled the air, and several pieces of fried essential oil shiny roast meat appeared.
"Gollum ......" Li Hao's old face turned red, as soon as he saw these pieces of barbecue, he secretly swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, stared at the barbecue intently, and resisted the urge to reach out and take it, because Li Hao knew that this barbecue didn't seem to be something he could eat first......
The old man glanced at it lightly, there seemed to be fire in his eyes, he nodded, casually picked up a bottle of wine on the side, and threw it at the middle-aged uncle. After the uncle caught it with a smile, he unscrewed the lid, poured it directly into his mouth, and drank it with a clatter. The old man also picked up the barbecue on the ground, tore off a piece with his bare hands, and bit it with a big mouth......
"Lao Tian, your craftsmanship seems to have deteriorated, why don't you have the familiar taste?" The old man looked at the middle-aged uncle dissatisfiedly while eating.
"Nonsense, how did my craftsmanship deteriorate, if you want to say that it's not kind, but you, the wine you took out was just a bottle of old wine that had been hidden for fifty years, it was really picky." The uncle's simple face was also dissatisfied, and he frowned and looked at the wine in his hand and said.
Li Hao looked at the two of them eating and drinking in a daze, and ...... himself Looks like forgotten......
In the end, Li Hao couldn't help it, secretly stretched out his hand, pressed it on a piece of barbecue, slowly lifted it up, and put it into his mouth.
When it was about to reach his mouth, the middle-aged uncle's left hand suddenly shook, stretched out a finger, and pointed it on Li Hao's barbecue, and then, the barbecue flew to his hand, and was finally eaten by him.
Li Hao was in a hurry, glanced at the uncle, and then wanted to take another piece, at this time, the uncle spoke.
"What are you doing this kid, what kind of body are you sneaking into, you want to eat my old field's barbecue, do you know my rules?" After speaking, the uncle glanced at Li Hao with his eyes, and Li Hao touched his nose, a little embarrassed.
Seeing that Li Hao didn't speak, the uncle turned his head and asked the old man, "This kid is your new guest?" Ah, and that kid lying on the ground, what's wrong with him? Is it because you are drunk with your wine? ”
The old man smiled slightly, and did not answer the middle-aged uncle directly, but turned his head to Li Hao and smiled: "Boy, I only remembered to chat with you just now, and I forgot to introduce myself, I am the shopkeeper of this hotel, and people in the industry call me Ah Feng, as for my real name...... Do not disclose it to strangers. ”
Li Hao pursed his lips and secretly said If you hadn't controlled me to come in, Lao Tzu wouldn't have come!
Then the old man continued, looking at the middle-aged uncle: "His name is Li Suntian, the owner of the barbecue restaurant next door, you can call him Lao Li or Lao Tian." ”
After a pause, Ah Feng continued: "Ordinary people can't eat Lao Tian's barbecue, do you know what he said about not eating eight? First, don't eat: don't eat barbecue meat under 500 pieces. Second, don't eat: don't eat non-beautiful beauties. Third, don't eat: Don't eat without original seasonings. Fourth, don't eat: buy and sell strongly. Fifth, don't eat: Don't eat without good wine. Sixth, don't eat: Don't eat those with ugly faces. Seventh, don't eat: Those who are gorgeously dressed don't eat. Eighth, don't eat...... Hehe, the noodle don't eat. ”
The middle-aged man known as Lao Tian glared at the old man A Feng and muttered, "You are kind enough to introduce the rules to the new guests, just ...... it."
Li Hao's eyes looked at the middle-aged uncle with some strange eyes...... These eight rules are really peculiar.
As for the salutation...... Is it called Lao Li...... Li Hao doesn't like to call it that, let's call it Lao Tian.
Li Suntian...... Well, it's a strange name, it's like it's a patchwork of three surnames......
"You can also call him Tim, that's his English name." Old Man Ah Feng smiled slightly and said.
"Shut up, you dead old man, why are you talking to outsiders." Lao Tian suddenly glared.
"Hey...... He's not an outsider, you know what this guy is looking for? Ah Feng stopped laughing, his face was a little solemn, and continued: "This young man is here to find the crew on this street......
"Crew ......" Lao Tian's face also changed, looked at Li Hao, and said seriously: "Young man, what's your name?" He stared at him with fixed eyes.
"Li Hao......" Li Hao gritted his teeth and said, facing his gaze, when the middle-aged uncle became serious, the air around him faintly stopped flowing, and he felt invisible pressure, but Li Hao glared back at him without showing weakness.
After a long time, Lao Tian retracted his gaze, sighed, and said: "It seems that this kid is also a stubborn ......" and then muttered: "I hope Mills's old immortal prophecy is right......" His voice was very soft, and he didn't let Li Hao hear it, but he let Old Man Ah Feng hear it intentionally or unintentionally.
Ah Feng's face changed, he hurriedly grabbed a piece of barbecue, handed it to Li Hao, and took advantage of the time when he was eating the barbecue, he gave Lao Tian a look, which meant: silence.
After Li Hao finished eating, Ah Feng and Lao Tian slowly stood up and said to Li Hao with a serious face: "Let's take you to the crew you are going to." ”
After speaking, Ah Feng suddenly stretched out his hand and stroked it casually on the wall, and finally his hand stopped, and pressed it gently, as his dry fingers pressed into it, a secret door suddenly appeared on the wall behind him, and on the secret door, there were strange patterns engraved in it, these patterns, if Angel was here, his face would definitely turn pale, because these patterns ...... It is the mural in the secret tunnel of the Don Quixote family!
However, Li Hao didn't notice it, because his eyes were already fixed on the secret door, and then Li Hao stood up dumbfounded......
"Go in, the crew you're looking for is right behind this door." Lao Tian's voice was a bit bleak and helpless, and then after Li Hao came back to his senses, he considered whether to take Ah San with him.
As if seeing through Li Hao's thoughts, Ah Feng said in a deep voice: "The crew has an order, you can only enter alone, and your companions, we will entertain you." ”
Li Hao heard this. After hesitating for a while, he stepped in.
He had a hunch...... After stepping through this door, your destiny will change and you will take a different path......
Li Hao smiled bitterly...... Even if it's an ordinary person, after encountering these two old immortal weirdos, it will become extraordinary......
After Li Hao entered, the secret door slowly closed.
……
After the secret doors were all closed, Lao Tian and Ah Feng both looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly.
Lao Tian looked at the dim light on the ceiling and muttered to himself, "That young man, is it really the person Mills is looking for?" ”
"You can't be wrong." Ah Feng also seemed to be crying and laughing, and after taking a sip of wine, he said: "Mills told me a while ago that in a month, there will be a young man who will come to this street, please take care of him, treat him and then take him into that secret room to find the crew, and finally he said that this young man is the key to changing the pattern of the ability world." ”
"Destiny...... Is it really predictable? Mills: Was he right? Lao Tian closed his eyes and sat down slowly.
Suddenly...... Lao Tian's whole body shook suddenly, and when he opened his eyes again, his eyes had become sharp, and he looked into the distance with a smile on his face.
Ah Feng, like Lao Tian, also looked at the sky with a smile.
"Ah Feng...... Do you feel it too? Lao Tian asked.
"yes...... Lao Tian, another guest is coming, but this time, it seems to be our old friend......" Then, both of them walked out of the door full. The difference is that Ah Feng's whole body is shrouded in battle intent, while Lao Tian's hands are already pressed on the hilt of the sword, and a cane is also trembling slightly.
