Chapter 0006 - Going Out to Rely on Friends
Xiao Qiong and Shangguan Yun had a full meal at the Lanzhou ramen restaurant, blowing cool air conditioning, which was very comfortable. I didn't want to go out for a while.
The sun is scorching outside, and it's extremely hot. Both of them think that staying first is the way to go, but where to go? No one can make up their minds. wants to go to Feng Chang'e, but is afraid of causing misunderstanding, she must have a boyfriend.
Even though I've been studying at NC University for four years, I'm still a little bit away from home. Just when Xiao Qiong and Shangguan Yun were hesitating, the mobile phone rang, and at a glance, it was Feng Chang'e! Xiao Qiong hurriedly answered the phone, and Feng Chang'e was silent on the other side of the phone for a few seconds, as if she had mustered up enough courage to speak.
"Brother Xiao, where are you now?" Feng Chang'e asked.
Xiao Qiong replied: "We are now in the Lanzhou ramen restaurant near the Guangzhou Railway Station. I'm worried about where to go. I want to find a place to live and slowly look for a job. β
"It is the central city of Guangzhou, renting a house must be very expensive, you might as well come to Panyu, I am familiar with it, it is easy to find a rental house." Half an hour later, I will pick you up at Exit D of Panyu Square Metro Station. β
"That'sβit's too much trouble for you."
Xiao Qiong wanted to say something polite apologetically, but Feng Chang'e couldn't allow him to say more, so she hung up the phone first. Anyway, if you are worried that you have nowhere to go, someone will take the initiative to help, why not? Xiao Qiong and Shangguan Yun found the subway station as if fleeing, and when they walked into the subway, it was cool again. Big cities are just different. The streets are so hot that you can bake eggs, and there are still many public places where you can escape the heat.
After taking the subway for more than 40 minutes, Xiao Qiong and Shangguan Yun arrived at the Panyu subway station. This is the terminal of the number three money. Feng Chang'e was standing at the entrance of the subway and waiting. After a few hours of not seeing, there was an extra scar on her forehead, a large black patch, obviously hitting a hard object. When I got closer, there were two clear blood marks on her white lotus-like arms, and the wounds were still fresh, and they were even more eye-catching because of the red potion she had applied.
Xiao Qiong understood a little bit when she saw this, it seems that the hexagram is accurate! Feng Chang'e is also a cheerful person, and she does not hide the current embarrassing situation, but takes the initiative to "expose the ugly": "Xiao Qiong, you are really a god." It was already ten o'clock in the morning when I returned to Panyu, and the dog's animal and the woman had not gotten up yet, and I was caught in bed. β
"So you're getting started?" Ye Xiaoxiao asked.
"The shrew's hand first. I'm really this time. β
Feng Chang'e replied while leading the way in front. Xiao Qiong and Shangguan Yun are like followers. Feng Chang'e was indeed very familiar with this area, stretched out her hand to stop a taxi, and beckoned: "Go to Shaxu Village." β
In just a few minutes, Feng Chang'e took Xiao Qiong and Shangguan Yun to Shaxu Village. This is an urban village, and there are many notes with "house for rent" at the door of the tall and low houses, and there are still telephones. Xiao Qiong and Shangguan Yun followed Feng Chang'e through the narrow alleys, and there was a feeling of walking into a labyrinth, unable to distinguish between east and west, north and south. The indigenous people of this urban village have long moved into high-end residential areas, and most of the people who live here today are migrants. The community is extremely complex.
Feng Chang'e finally stopped in front of a six-story rental building and contacted the owner according to the contact number left by the owner. Single room, fully equipped with toilet. Two hundred dollars.
"Do you want to share a house or live separately?" Feng Chang'e asked.
With such a cheap rent, of course, it is better to live separately, so that you can leave more private space for yourself. Xiao Qiong and Shangguan Yun coincidentally chose to live separately.
After a while, the landlord arrived on a motorcycle. She is a middle-aged woman. Short hair, high cheeks, thick eyebrows, big eyes. The skin is somewhat dark. Probably because the tenants had seen too much, the landlady saw a few young people, and she was not particularly surprised, but took out a bunch of keys from the rear trunk with a flat expression, opened the door on the first floor, and took Xiao Qiong and them straight to the sixth floor. The building was built specifically for rent, and each room is numbered. The landlady opened rooms 602 and 608 respectively and said, "There are only these two rooms left, you can choose for yourself." The rent is paid for one month and the rent is charged for one month. β
Xiao Qiong walked into room 602, and instantly felt a sense of dizziness, feeling a layer of dim halo around her. On the bed, there was a naked young woman, covered in blood, and even the ground was covered with dark red blood. What's going on? Xiao Qiong shook her head vigorously and took a few deep breaths to calm herself. The dizziness is gone, the plank bed is empty, and there is nothing!
What the hell?! Xiao Qiong divined a hexagram with time, and the hexagram showed that the house of the great murderer had a disaster of blood and light. So it was concluded that there had been a homicide in this room for a year or so, and the deceased was a young woman. According to what was just seen in the hallucination, the deceased was about thirty years old. Xiao Qiong pushed open the window again and saw that not far away was a straight street leading to the central city. On both sides of the street are dozens of airbrush advertising production companies, and a variety of commercials form a unique streetscape.
Standing on the windowsill, the street seems to pass under the building, forming a "gun brake" in feng shui, not far away from two high-rise buildings dozens of floors, the space left in the middle, in the broad daylight looks like a big chopping knife, forming a "heavenly slash". "Gunfire" and "Sky Slash" are both aimed at Room 602. Xiao Qiong firmly believed in her judgment even more.
The landlady stood in the hallway waiting, with a large bunch of keys and a book in her hand. As long as the two young people are optimistic about the house, she is ready to collect money at any time.
When Xiao Qiong saw Shangguan Yun and Feng Chang'e going to 608, she quietly approached the landlady and said softly, "Auntie, do you have a better room?" I can't rent this room. β
The landlady's face immediately changed: "What's wrong?" β
"There had been a homicide in this room, and the deceased was a woman, about thirty years old."
Seeing Xiao Qiong's calm appearance, there was no intention of joking. What surprised her even more was that Xiao Qiong was completely right! How did he know? A year ago, the female tenant who rented this room was brutally murdered by gangsters, and the case has not been solved yet. This room was rented for half a year, and after half a year, a tenant moved out after a few months, and he didn't say anything about it. And this young man, as if he saw the scene of the crime, is not he a living immortal?
"How do you know?"
The landlady had to blush and admit the facts. Xiao Qiong could also see from the expression of the landlady that her prediction this time was completely accurate.
"I studied the Book of Changes, and I know a little bit about feng shui, fortune telling, spells, etc." Xiao Qiong saw that Shangguan Yun hadn't come out yet, and her voice raised a little: "Room 608 is worth the price, but this room 602, you just give it to me to live, and I don't dare to live in it." β
The landlady's expression became complicated. This room 602, three years since the new house was built, has moved no less than ten tenants, either in a car accident, a homicide, or a serious illness. In short, none of them had a good result, it turned out to be a matter of Feng Shui.
"Is there any way to crack it?" The landlady asked.
"Of course there is. However, the heavenly machine must not be leaked, and the leakage of the heavenly machine will be punished. Xiao Qiong deliberately teased.
At this time, the landlady had already admired Xiao Qiong so much. A college student who has just walked out of school actually has such a practice! She didn't care about her status as a "landlord", so she took the initiative to put down her shelf and pleaded: "Master Xiao, help me, I will definitely thank you." Also, I'll give you a two-bedroom suite, in the Oriental White Cloud Garden. After that, we will be good friends, how about it? β
"Good friends"? This is the friend Xiao Qiong made after leaving the school gate. Count on your fingers, it's definitely a single digit. Moreover, when they met, they gave him a two-bedroom house to live in.
"I rely on my parents at home and my friends when I go out. I know it's not easy for you to come out to work. If there is anyone who can help in the future, I will do my best. My surname is Liang. β
Aunt Liang's full name is Liang Minyi. This was something that Xiao Qiong only learned about later. She was about thirty-five or sixteen years old, but she looked to be in her early forties. Perhaps it is the reason why the ultraviolet rays in the south are too strong, women age quickly. For Aunt Liang's exchange conditions, Xiao Qiong of course couldn't ask for it. In this unfamiliar place, before his ass was firmly seated, someone sent him a two-bedroom apartment to live in. He didn't even think about it, so he agreed. I'll come over tomorrow to help her change her feng shui. Later, when she entered the industry deeper and deeper, Xiao Qiong realized that Aunt Liang's condition was simply the price of cabbage.
Shangguan Yun and Feng Chang'e came out of room 608 and were about to pay the money to book the room, but Aunt Liang politely refused: "Let's go." I'll take you to the Oriental White Cloud Garden. β
Shangguan Yun and Feng Chang'e looked at each other, not knowing what was happening. Xiao Qiong slapped Shangguan Yun and said, "If you are told to leave, you will leave, what are you doing in a daze?" β
Seeing the stupidity of the two stunned young people, Aunt Liang understood that they were unprepared for the happy event that fell from the sky, and further explained: "I will give a two-bedroom apartment to Master Xiao to live in. Let's move in together. β
Master Xiao? Shangguan Yun was even more stunned. When did Xiao Qiong become a master? And so quickly won the heart of the landlady? From Xiao Qiong's secretly handed over gaze, Shangguan Yun understood a little. He didn't ask any more questions, followed Aunt Liang with the flow, and went straight to the Oriental Baiyun Garden.
