Shudi Shuangliu International Airport

The flight from Beijing to Chengdu arrived, and the bustling crowd added a bit of breathing temperature to this winter. People who end their journey begin to return along the track of home, while some people never find the direction of home, perhaps the road has long been covered by the dust of time. Luckily, most people are lucky.

At this moment, past the crowded crowd, a delicate beauty with a brisk step came to meet her. Dressed in a creamy white wool fringed dress with a dark gray over-the-knee coat over it, she was low-key and elegant. The woolen tassels on the vest skirt are irregularly arranged and embellished, swaying and rhythmic with the owner's forward steps. Under the woolen top hat is her long straight black hair that is soft and flowing, and her eyes are clear and clear, like a clear spring, full of spiritual charm in the circulation. Gazing intently, it was really a pearl of dizziness. Walking out of the terminal, the woman stopped a taxi and sped away.

"Master, I'm back. Do you miss me? ”

The woman was very familiar with the person on the other end of the phone, and her words were intimate.

"Eh, who dares not to want you, your eldest lady Gu is famous, I don't dare not want to." At that end, a middle-aged uncle in gray and white clothes was lying crookedly on a wooden chair, with Erlang's legs crossed, and a cotton coat that was so dirty that he couldn't see his true color on his upper body. Hearing the woman's voice at this moment, the bean eyes under the gray eyebrows overflowed with a little smile, which was free and easy, but because of the thin figure and lazy sitting posture, it looked obscene and funny.

"Less, how is the business in the master's shop lately?"

When the middle-aged man heard this, his eyes drifted to the shabby and yellowed signboard at the gate, and his smile looked a little mysterious.

"Fortunately, there have been a lot of people asking for a consultation recently, do you want the good apprentice to come and help the master?"

The woman who was looking at the glimpse outside the window comfortably had a slightly changed expression at the moment. Her family's master is known as a half-doctor and a half-doctor, and he opened a Taoist medical hall for hasty business, making little money but enough to live happily in Shudi. It's just that although her master is a Taoist doctor, in fact, others say that he is here for consultation, but in fact, most of them are here to ask for divination. Business has also been tepid, how can it suddenly boom recently? The master she knows is often indifferent, and since he has said that there are more people who ask for consultations, then there must be a lot of people. Although she has been studying in Italy since she was 18 years old, and this year is the sixth year, she still keeps an eye on her homeland, but she hasn't heard of anything big.

"I haven't graduated yet, and my level is too poor to inherit my master's career. What's the news lately? ”

"The secret of heaven must not be revealed, the little apprentice came to offer tribute, master, I am hungry, and the five visceral temples have begun to fight." It didn't seem to want to mention more, so the man directly changed the topic.

"Okay, okay, I'm on the road to 10,000 years, and I'll be there soon."

When she arrived at her destination, the woman paid the fare and walked into the old street with her luggage. Most of the people on the street are neighbors she is familiar with, and those old neighbors were there when she was a child studying in the hospital with her master, and they have not moved elsewhere due to the improvement of material conditions, and the human touch is very strong. After greeting her familiar peers, she walked into a fly restaurant. It is a long-established store that has been in operation since she was a child, and the business is said to have been expanded to other districts and counties in Chengdu by the owner's son, but the Xiangzuir still loves this old store the most. The store has not been reorganized, and it is said that the original taste has been retained. Although the unrenovated has worn out over the years, and there are even smoky mottled marks on the walls, it can't resist the attraction of the food. Although the sparrows are small, the fly restaurant is full of creative dishes and their unique taste. Although it is not as delicate and timeless as other cuisines, it retains the delicate and delicate style of Sichuan cuisine, with a simple style and refreshing taste. As soon as I entered the store, the proprietress greeted me warmly, which made people feel warm and friendly.

"Little sister, sit inside, today there is a signature roast rabbit, red oil fat sausage, hot lung slices, and other home-cooked dishes, the ingredients are fresh, and the taste is very good. What do you think you want to eat? ”

The proprietress is a little chubby, but her frosty face is ruddy and full of vitality. It's just that there is a faint worry in his eyes, and he doesn't pay attention to it. Gu Pinyao was still immersed in the fresh feeling of returning to China, and only felt that the strong Sichuan flavor in the proprietress was blowing in his face, bringing a sense of intimacy, but he didn't pay attention to that worry.

"Well, I want a Bawang yellow throat, hot lung slices, shredded roast rabbit, green pepper fish, three crispy and dry fried green beans, and two copies each of pork arch mouth and fragrant ears, all packed." may be mixed up with a master like a big stomach king when she is young, and her appetite should not be underestimated. After suffering from eating abroad, she often went home hungry, and later had no choice but to cook by herself, but she practiced good cooking skills.

"If you want it, sister, you sit down first, and the food will come in a while." After saying that, the proprietress shouted to the kitchen to cook the food, and the famous fly restaurant in Chengdu basically served the food in seconds, after all, there were too many customers. Even in the alleys, there is still a steady stream of customers coming to buy. After paying, she carried the food in both her left and right hands, and walked deeper into the street with her suitcase in her arm. Don't ask so much how she takes a girl, you will never understand the world of foodies. Even though her hands are inconvenient and she is still holding her luggage, her steps are not affected at all, as if practice makes perfect if she has done more.

After a while, she stopped and looked at the yellowed signboard above her head, which read "Puzhen Taoist Medical Center", the font is vigorous and vigorous, and the pen is dangerous, and it is printed based on her master's words. Although her master looks uninhibited and unkempt, she believes that words are like people, and her master master has his own style and bones, and he has seen the vicissitudes of life. It's a pity that the year is far away, the ink fragrance of the words has faded, and the years are barren.

Pushing open the folding glass door, at a glance, I saw her master's sleeping posture. A thin T-shirt is covered with a cotton coat, and the bare feet are exposed under the trousers, which makes people feel goosebumps to stand up.

"Master, why don't you wear more clothes and lie like this. The air conditioner is not on either, and I am not afraid of catching a cold. ”

After the woman entered the room, she immediately closed the door to block the cold air that wanted to invade, for fear of bringing coolness to the thin middle-aged man. walked to the man's table and put down the food in his hand, walked to the wooden cabinet not far away, opened the first drawer and took out the remote control of the air conditioner that was stained with a lot of dust, and turned on the air conditioner immediately after putting on the new battery. The movements are smooth, and it seems that the lotus flower under the steps is faintly seen while walking.

"Ouch, my good apprentice, you're getting better and better at walking Qinglian. I usually practice a lot, not bad, not bad. After speaking, he touched his chin and the beard that did not have zài, and smiled proudly, causing a few white eyes from the woman in return.

"Master, I bought vegetables, let's eat first." She didn't want to respond to the master's behavior of changing the topic, so she had to go along with it. Although her master was thinly dressed and did not listen to anyone's persuasion, she could only comfort and comfort herself with his strong body and strong martial arts.

"Okay, good, good, I smelled the fragrance of Lao Li's vegetables from afar, and the gluttonous insects were about to run out. It's still an apprentice's filial piety, help me take out my treasured Wuliangye, and I'll have a few drinks to celebrate your return to China. After speaking, he looked at Gu Pinyao with a smile.

She had no choice but to resign herself to her fate to get wine for her master and then pour it and put it firmly in front of him, take out the dishes and chopsticks from the backyard cupboard and set them up, ready to eat.

"Today's roast rabbit is really strong and delicious. Good apprentice, eat more, you haven't eaten for almost half a year. ”

"Mmmm, I really miss Li Ji's dishes. By the way, master, it used to be Uncle Li who came out to welcome guests, why is she the boss lady today? "Gu Pinyao has been on this street since he was a child, and he often goes to Li Ji to be received by the boss, and he rarely sees the boss lady welcoming guests. And because she went abroad six years ago and returned to China several times a year, the rest of the time was mostly in Italy, so the boss's impression of her gradually faded, and she didn't recognize her today.

"Well, Lao Li, his body bones are not as good as before, hey." took a sip of wine, and a kind of melancholy came out of the man's mouth, looking a little depressed and sad.

"Hasn't Uncle Li always been quite strong? Why did you suddenly fall ill this time? ”

"It's not just him, many of our old neighbors aren't very good."

After listening to Pu Zhen's words, Gu Pinyao felt a faint uneasiness in his heart. It's no wonder that all the people I met along the way were my peers, but why did the old people get sick at the same time, it seems a little weird. In fact, she didn't notice that most of the old, weak, sick and disabled Italians were also sick. Speaking of Gu Pinyao's country, most of them also deal with alumni on campus, and even if they take cases outside, most of them are young people who are physically strong, so they are not clear about these situations. The government, on the other hand, sees this phenomenon as a disease of people who are not resilient to climate change, and does not pay much attention to it on the surface, so the news seems calm and civilians do not pay much attention. But is that really the case?

Hiding the uneasiness in his heart, Gu Pinyao took out a well-made invitation letter from his bag and handed it to Pu Zhen. He smiled and said to him:

"Master, this is an invitation to the 'Star Gate Project'. You see, this supernatural association is still quite good, it can be mixed into a similar military plan, and it feels like a bargain. ”

Originally, she was very interested in the rumored "star gate" in the Gulf of Aden, and fantasized that there really existed in the world a passage connecting the rest of the universe. Now that she has an opportunity to contact "Stargate", her interest is mediocre. After all, if there really is such a passage, how can the military invite people from the Occult Association to visit it. Although the international super-associations have indeed made remarkable achievements in the study of UFOs, extraterrestrial contacts, and occult cultures, they are not eligible to enter the 'Stargate Project'. What's more, Italy's Super Association natives were not elected, and she was selected as a Chinese representative, even if she was one of the representatives, it still didn't feel very good.
