Chapter 105: Don't Swear Casually
A new week, a new day, the first update has arrived!
ββββββ Ma Liang said with a smile: "Then the old man, you should really go and open their eyes, so that they don't know the height of the sky and the height of the earth like frogs at the bottom of the well." β
When he said this, Ma Liang's expression seemed casual, but it was rare that his attitude was very serious, which was completely different from the bad attitude of being a little cynical or even disrespectful whenever he talked to Lu Xiangan before-as a person from Qimen, Ma Liang certainly knew what a great existence a grandmaster-level fortune teller was.
As a warlock, Ma Liang must of course choose the right thing and not the right person in this regard, and speak realistically.
Lu Xiangan smiled and waved his hand, looking light, and said: "There is nothing comparable between literature and fighting, so why compare with each other, you have to judge the success or failure...... Besides, even if you want to win glory for the country's magic, you need to learn from each other when you communicate, and I, a practitioner of literary arts, are also powerless, if the old man who 'sat on the ground Yama' was willing to go out of the mountain, then ...... Hehe. β
Not a word was finished.
This made Chu Mingyi, a layman who was an observer, itchy and curious - good guy, the legendary characters and spells turned out to be true...... But who is the old man who is called "Sitting on the Ground"? Why don't you go out of the mountains? If he goes out of the mountain, what kind of wonderful shock will it be? It's a pity that Lu Xiangan didn't say it, and Chu Mingyi could only imagine it in his heart - it must be an extraordinary person in the field of warlocks, with extremely high status and skills, and he is very domineering and awesome when he hears the name!
And Ma Liang listened to Lu Xiangan holding his grandfather to such a high position, and a mentality called pride spontaneously arose in his heart.
However, in view of the fact that Lu Xiangan's previous actions did not give Ma Liang a very good impression, he quickly thought of other aspects, and he had a plan in his heart - these things of learning fighting methods have nothing to do with me, not only should I try to avoid them, but I also have to take precautions just in case.
Thinking of this, Ma Liang stopped talking about this matter, and seemed to feel quite uncomfortable with snubbing Chu Mingyi's previous question, so he turned his head and said to Chu Mingyi with a smile: "Mr. Chu, if there is no accident, the spell on your body should be completely eradicated in a week......
"Ah, well, thank you, pony, I just took the liberty of not taking such a worldly thing as money to measure your spells." Chu Mingyi hurriedly nodded, sincerely apologized, and then asked with a little doubt and worry: "Little Pony, is that ...... Will there be any surprises? β
Ma Liang shook his head with a smile and said, "I told you before, if there is an unbearable itch or needle prick pain in the body within three days, you must inform me as soon as possible." As for the rest...... Oh yes, didn't Mr. Chu say that he has several houses that he often lives in? In the future, if there is time for convenience, it is best to go to each house and take a closer look, within a radius of twenty meters, do not have strange trees and flowers and plants growing between the branches, such as outside the brewery villa, a branch on the poplar tree, the growth is very strange, contrary to common sense, and the growth is directed at the mansion ......"
"Okay, I'll listen to you, and immediately find someone to cut down all the trees and plants near the residence!" Chu Mingyi made a decision immediately, but then realized that this method didn't seem to workβyou know, those trees are not your own...... And how can ordinary people easily see the strangeness of the growth of trees and plants? So Chu Mingyi said with a slightly sad face: "Little pony, for us ordinary people, the strange growth of these trees and plants is extremely difficult to find, otherwise, I would like you to follow me and take a look around...... Of course, I won't treat you badly! β
Ma Liang frowned slightly when he heard this, pretending to be as high as a person who is not willing to be contaminated with worldly money.
"No, no, don't get me wrong, I mean, alas...... I don't even know what to say. Seeing this, Chu Mingyi hurriedly explained, but he didn't know how to phrase it to avoid Ma Liang not hesitating to misunderstand, so he had to sigh and ask: "Xiaoma, I will rely on you for this matter, otherwise I really can't rest assured." β
"Okay, anyway, I'm fired, and I won't be able to find a job for a while, and I'll be idle if I'm idle, so I'll let you go." Ma Liang seemed to agree with some reluctance.
Chu Mingyi was pleasantly surprised: "Great, great, I must ...... Oh no, pony, don't mind if I say something, yes, the reward must be given to you, otherwise I really don't want to go. β
"Hmm." Ma Liang had to reluctantly nod in order to take care of Chu Mingyi's mood, but he didn't mention the specific remuneration, and instead said: "Mr. Chu, the matter has basically been resolved, and there are some things that I need to remind you in advance...... I can go with you without any pay, but you have to promise me a few conditions. β
"Okay, just say it!" Chu Mingyi said without hesitation.
Ma Liang frowned slightly and lowered his eyelids, and he was not in a hurry to say, as if he needed to think about it carefully. He leaned forward and picked up a cigarette to light one, smoking slowly, while using his right index finger to poke into the small white bowl on the coffee table, gently rubbing the few drops of blood that had dried up and condensed into stains, the movement was very casual, like a small inadvertent action when thinking about a problem.
Chu Mingyi looked at Ma Liang with a sincere expression, waiting, and did not urge.
Lu Xiang'an, who was sitting on the side, frowned slightly, watching Ma Liang's right index finger gently rubbing in the white porcelain bowl...... A seemingly non-existent aura flowed into the white porcelain bowl along Ma Liang's fingertips, rippling slightly, like a pool of blue water. After the aura was fused, the few drops of blood that had been dried up and condensed into stains slowly dissolved, turning from black and red to the original bright red, as if they had just flowed out of the human body.
Ma Liang lowered his head, didn't look at Lu Xiangan and Chu Mingyi, and said slowly as if he was a little sad: "My intention is to live the life of an ordinary person, not a person in Qimen...... If this matter is not a last resort, Mr. Chu's character and surname make me quite admired, and my identity as a warlock is already known to you, so I will help out in desperation, thinking about this, Mr. Chu and Mr. Lu are also very clear. β
"Yes, pony, you yearn for a low-key, ordinary life hidden in the city, it's me who disturbed your Qingxiu." Chu Mingyi said apologetically and sincerely.
Lu Xiangan showed a wry smile on his face, Ma Liang was saying that he broke the rules!
Ma Liang raised his head with a smile, waved his hand, showed a look that no longer minded, and then said: "So I hope that Mr. Chu can agree to me on a few conditions, first, don't leak my identity as a warlock; Second, because you know who I am and why you know me, you can't come to me for help in the future when you encounter something. Third, treat me like an ordinary person and forget that I'm still a warlock...... Perhaps, we can be friends, it would be better. β
"Yes, absolutely, don't worry, I, Chu Mingyi, am not the kind of person who loves to chew the root of my tongue, let alone betray my friends......" Chu Mingyi patted his chest and reassured, feeling extremely happy and proud in his heart because he was fortunate to be friends with a strange person like Ma Liang. But then Chu Mingyi thought of something again, and quickly turned his head and smiled awkwardly at Lu Xiangan.
Lu Xiangan couldn't laugh or cry -- speaking of which, I have become a bad guy who chews my tongue and betrays others.
Ma Liang nodded with satisfaction, and then said with some unease: "Mr. Chu, you really won't say it?" β
"I swear......," Chu Mingyi said immediately.
"Good!" Ma Liang's face was straight, and the index finger of his right hand placed in the white porcelain bowl was jerked, and a drop of bright red blood suddenly flew into the air...... "Little pony, don't ......" Lu Xiangan hurriedly reached out to stop Ma Liang's movements, but it was too late.
I saw Ma Liang's right hand like a blooming orchid, stretching his five fingers in mid-air to cage the drop of blood, twisting his wrist, and constantly swiping with the tips of his five fingers at the same time but in different lines.
As everyone knows, there is Ma Liang's spiritual perception and the existence of true qi in it, so that such an effect can be achieved.
Lu Xiangan's half-stretched hand stopped, retracted helplessly, closed his eyes slightly, and did not look at Ma Liang's flying hand shadow, but quietly protected his mind from being disturbed by it.
Chu Mingyi, on the other hand, was dazzled, staring blankly, secretly admiring Ma Liang's magic when it was really wonderful, but he faintly felt that there seemed to be a wisp of thought in his mind that was pulled out by some strange and strong attraction, and followed his line of sight into the illusory hand shadow.
In an instant, Ma Liang's right hand was still, and the drop of blood that was shrouded in the shadow of his hand turned into a faint fist-sized red mist. Ma Liang opened his mouth slightly and inhaled gently, and the red mist turned into a wisp of light smoke and was inhaled into Ma Liang's abdomen.
Ma Liang slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, and then his expression returned to his usual honest and honest smile.
"Pony, why are you ......" Lu Xiangan opened his eyes and sighed, looking a little helpless.
After listening to Lu Xiangan's words, and looking at Lu Xiangan's expression, Chu Mingyi seemed to feel a little wrong, and couldn't understand what was going on, so he asked in surprise: "Pony, what kind of spell did you use just now?" Is this house, oh no, no, what's wrong with me? β
Ma Liang shook his head with a smile and said, "There is nothing wrong with Mr. Chu, I will definitely help you deal with your affairs cleanly, so that you don't have any worries." Speaking of which, since he is a person in Qimen, although he is willing to live an ordinary life, when he encounters this kind of incident of harming people with evil magic, he should also take action to subdue demons and eliminate demons to help justice. β
After saying these high-sounding words, Ma Liang paused for a moment before continuing: "It's just that Mr. Chu just promised me the conditions, and you must abide by them devoutly in the future, and you must not break your oath!" β
