"Where do you want to go? Do you have any clients to meet? Su Hui drove the car and asked.

Before Wang Xiao went out, he originally planned to go to the experimental primary school to find Wu Shuanglong after meeting You Haozhi, and it was best to make an appointment with Concubine Qin and invite Wu Shuanglong to have a meal.

Now, he suddenly had the idea of looking for that white-bearded man in his heart, although You Haozhi just said it so lightly, but his intuition told him that this old man with white hair and white hair did not look like an idle person.

"At the south end of Renmin Road, there is a very remote alley behind the shopping mall, and there is an old lady who sells wild vegetables and mixed noodles there, three pieces and five bowls, the taste is not bad, I don't know if you have been there." Wang said with a smile.

"I often go to the mall you mentioned, but I've never been to that alley, and every time I pass by there, there is a fishy smell, and then I drive around that road intentionally." Su Hui said bluntly.

"I want to go there for a bowl of mixed noodles, find someone by the way, if you don't want to go, I'll take a taxi." Wang said with a smile.

"Forget it, I'm not so squeamish, let's go with you!" Su Hui said with a smile.

Half an hour later, when Su Hui parked the car, Wang Xiao led her into the inconspicuous alley and went straight to the old lady's stall.

There were still ten minutes to go until twelve o'clock, but the long tables were already full of customers eating noodles.

Wang Xiao looked around, didn't see the white beard, and asked for two bowls of mixed noodles with some disappointment, and brought them to the table to eat one bowl with Su Hui.

"Well, it tastes good, a bit like a mountain farmhouse meal, it's better than I thought." Su Hui tasted a few bites and praised sincerely.

"There are no bells and whistles, and there are no complicated cooking techniques, but the taste is very natural, a bit back to basics." Wang Xiao also echoed.

Su Hui just wanted to answer, but when she looked up, an old man with white hair and bright eyes looked straight at Wang Xiao, pulled a small stool and sat down opposite Wang Xiao, and couldn't help but look at this old man with a bit of immortal Buddha breath curiously.

Wang Xiao also felt as if someone was looking at him, and found out that it was the old man he was looking for, so he couldn't help but be shocked, and said with a smile: "What a coincidence, the old man also came to eat noodles, Peng Zhuoyuan didn't come today, I invite you." ”

Bai Xu Weng was the same as last time, wearing a plain Tang costume with a placket, and stepping on a pair of soft cloth shoes with a simple and delicate style, but this time he was empty-handed, and the cloth pocket with pen and ink was missing.

When the old man heard that Wang Xiao wanted to invite him to eat noodles, he didn't say thank you, nor did he refuse, he just stared at Wang Xiao and looked at it, habitually twisted his long white beard with his hand, and said: "I haven't seen it for a while, my complexion has changed greatly, my blood is rich, my bones are clear, and I have reached my peak state, what a miracle!" I admit that I have read countless people in my life, but I have never met a person as peculiar as you, who can't see through or understand. ”

"Wouldn't it? The old man is very knowledgeable and well-informed, how can there be someone who can't see through? I thought the words you said last time were quite accurate, so I'm here today, half to eat noodles, and half to hope to reunite with my old family here. Wang Xiao had some doubts in his heart, but his words were as natural as ever.

"This is not the place to talk, let's eat noodles first, and when we finish eating noodles, if you don't dislike it, you can come to my house and sit down, let's have a good chat while drinking tea." As he spoke, the old man took the noodles handed over by the stall owner and gently placed them on the long table.

"Chen Banxian, the sun came out in the west today? We've been neighbors for decades, but it's the first time I've seen you take the initiative to invite strangers into your house to sit, I don't know how many big bosses carrying gold bricks were blocked by you at the door, and today you sold yourself for a bowl of noodles? The stall owner laughed and teased.

"That's different, some people's money is a disaster, I can't ask for it, if I don't have that concentration, I can't live until now, I come to you every day to eat." The white-bearded old man said with a smile.

Although the words of the stall owner are exaggerated, before Chen Banxian retired in the early years, there was an endless stream of people who came to see him from all over the country every day with generous gifts, and in fact, there was no shortage of big bosses who came to the door with gold bars.

It's just that the old man with the title of "Chen Banxian" has a very strong principle, whether it is measuring words or looking at appearance, you must first talk to him about his temper, otherwise you will move a golden mountain over, and he will not be moved.

Later, his lover passed away, he retired, no longer show people the word, this time has passed almost 30 years, these years are closed and bored, and began to run to the street to set up a small stall of word measurement, not to make money, just to pass the dull time.

Today, he deliberately invited Wang Xiao to his home to talk, completely out of curiosity about Wang Xiao's life.

After eating, Su Hui answered a phone call and left early.

Wang Xiao followed Chen Banxian to his house, which was at the east end of the alley, only four or five hundred meters away from the noodle stall just now.

It's an old neighborhood, and it's full of staleness.

Wang Xiao followed Chen Banxian into the house, and found that the decoration style of the house did not have the classical and elegant book aroma he imagined, so simple that he thought of the somewhat miserable word "four walls of the house", but he followed Chen Banxian into the study and found that the real highlight turned out to be here.

This study is actually a side room of this old-fashioned three-bedroom apartment, which was converted into a study by Chen Banxian, with a Taishi chair, a mahogany table that is some years old, and in addition to the spectacular bookshelves. Except for the window and the doorway, there was no vacancy in every wall, and all were embedded with wooden bookshelves.

The bookshelves are densely packed with books, most of which are books on physiognomy, feng shui, I Ching, classical medicine, etc., in fact, there are some rare books.

"Do you know how many books there are in this house?" Chen Banxian glanced at Wang Xiao, who was surprised, and without waiting for Wang Xiao to answer, he continued, "A total of one thousand six hundred and seventy-five copies, this is the accumulation of my life. But I couldn't find any answers from these books that could help me get to my senses. ”

"You're not going to mean me, are you?" Wang Xiao asked suspiciously.

"That's right, when I say doubt, I'm talking about you. Since I was sixteen years old, I have hardly encountered a character that I can't see, and I have never met someone as peculiar as you, so I have no longer passed the time for character measurement, but instead studied your character and tried to find an answer that would satisfy me. Chen Banxian said frankly.

"Is there a catch?" Wang Xiao asked curiously, he also wanted to know very much, how did he get such an ability, although it was very good to have such an ability now, but he was afraid that one day this ability would suddenly get out of control, it would be an unimaginable disaster.

Chen Banxian didn't answer, and asked rhetorically: "In the past few days, have you felt that your surname has changed greatly?" Or is there anything that confuses you more than ever? ”

Wang Xiao thought about it carefully and said, "I can't talk about the big change in my surname, but recently, I have done some inexplicable things. ”

Since I had this special ability, now that I think about it, I have indeed done something incomprehensible.

For example, inexplicably intervened in Su Hui's private feelings; For example, when I heard Xiong Zhanpeng's ridiculous view of love, I was inexplicably angry; For example, just for the sake of so-called justice, he took the risk to save You Haozhi's son.

Chen Banxian lowered his head and thought for a moment, and then asked, "Say a few keywords and see if these inexplicable things have anything in common?" ”

Wang Xiao thought for a while and said, "'Love', 'Justice'." ”

Chen Banxian listened, his eyes closed slightly, and he muttered for a long time before he opened his eyes, stared at Wang Xiao and said solemnly: "Although the secret of heaven cannot be revealed, and your situation is too complicated, it is difficult for me to see the whole picture, but I do see something." If you want to hear it, I can give you a wake-up call at the risk of God's damnation. ”

"Serious problem?" Wang Xiao saw Chen Banxian's solemn expression and serious tone, and he couldn't help but worry a little about whether it would be bad news.

"Is it serious, you yourself should know better than me." Chen Banxian said in his words.

Indeed, Wang Xiao's current ability, from the perspective of ordinary people, is not ordinarily serious.

"You've probably seen a movie called 'The Ghost Is Not Dead', right? Do you believe that there is such a relationship between yin and yang? Chen Banxian suddenly asked.

Wang Xiao didn't know how to answer for a while, he really hadn't thought about this question.

"In this world, there are two forces of human beings that are the most terrifying, one is from love and the other is from hate." Chen Banxian said, suddenly changed his words, and asked, "Do you still love a girl with the word 'snow' in her name?" ”

Wang Xiao was taken aback, and after being stunned for a moment, he hurriedly nodded.

"Is this girl no longer alive?" After Chen Banxian received an affirmative answer, his brows furrowed, and he immediately asked.

Wang Xiao nodded in astonishment again, the first time he met a hidden master like Chen Banxian, he was really shocked.

"I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse for you, or if it's a blessing or a curse, as I said to you that day. I see two forces in you, one is helping you, and it is a nameless force that I can't understand; Another force that wants to lead you to evil is the dark force. For now, it seems that the nameless force that helped you has the upper hand for the time being. However, the background of that dark force is not at all comparable to that nameless force, but one day the dark power prevails, you will become a cold-blooded and brutal madman, and become a terrifying human death. Chen Banbian told Wang Xiaoting what he knew without reservation.

Wang Xiao was unsettled for a while, he was really worried that Chen Banxian's prophecy would come true, he now had such terrifying power, a number of ghosts fell into the evil way, and no one could stop him from doing bad things.

Before Wang Xiao left, Chen Banxian told him earnestly: "I don't know what happened to you, but I hope you have enough courage to stick to your principles." If the girl you can't let go of is a kind girl, then be a man who can make her smile. ”

Wang Xiao nodded, his heart couldn't help but feel a little heavier, if there was really such a powerful dark force in him, if this power really burst out, then he was a veritable Grim Reaper salesman. (To be continued.) )
