Chapter 62: The World Is Cold
Wen Ziqi didn't think about it, so he said with a smile: "How can I not be impressed, I scared the two of us at the beginning!" ”
Lao Liu Tou was cleaning up the dishes in his hand, and said in a low voice: "You are frightened, I don't see that little brother is scared at all." ”
Originally, there was a pair of dishes and chopsticks on the small table, and it was naturally a matter of blink of an eye to clean it up. After everything was cleaned up, Lao Liu straightened up and looked at Wen Ziqi.
Wen Ziqi was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Uncle Liu, what do you mean by looking at me?" ”
Lao Liu Tou frowned and said: "People often say that there are ten ways to seek medical treatment, but I don't know how much Brother Wen knows about divination and questioning!" ”
Wen Ziqi couldn't help but be stunned in his heart, and secretly thought to himself: "Looking at his conversation, he definitely doesn't look like an ordinary old man!" Did he ask this casually? Or do you mean something! ”
Thinking of this, he shook his head and said: "I am just a junior apprentice, and I am not worthy of the word "doctor" at all, let alone Taoism!" I don't even know what I'm talking about! ”
Old Liu Tou seemed to have known that Wen Ziqi would answer him like this. He smiled and said as if talking to himself: "That little brother drew a "one" character with his foot for me to measure, I said that one life is two, two gives birth to three, and three gives birth to all things!" Stepping on the source of all things, that's why I said that he has the appearance of an emperor. Is that right? ”
Wen Ziqi saw Lao Liu Tou asking himself, so he thought for a while and said: "It seems that this is what I said, I also pushed him behind him, saying that he wanted to rebel!" ”
Old Liu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said slowly: "The magic is that this is the best push!" ”
Wen Ziqi couldn't help but be a little curious after hearing this, so he looked up at the slowly rising sun in the east, and silently thought in his heart that since it was still early, he might as well listen to what this old man wanted to say.
smiled and said: "What's so wonderful about just pushing it simply." ”
Old Liu Tou shook his head and said: "Everything in the world has a fixed number, although that little brother wrote the word "one" with his feet, but after writing it, he took his foot back, just one step away from the word "one"! It was your push that made him set his feet on everything. ”
Wen Ziqi smiled and said: "According to your meaning, although my brother has the appearance of an emperor, he can only sit on the world with the help of my push!" ”
Lao Liu nodded, turned around and took out two baked cakes from the cage drawer and wrapped them in oiled paper, and then reached out and handed them over. said with a smile on his face: "Four baked cakes, two bowls of tofu flowers, a total of four yuan!" ”
Wen Ziqi stretched out his right hand to take the baked cake, thought for a while and said, "Old man, aren't you afraid that the government will condemn you for rebellion and rebellion?" With that, he reached out and took out four copper plates from his sleeve pocket and put them on the table.
Old Liu Tou laughed, leaned over and put the copper plate in his hand, and said happily: "You are not afraid of measuring words, I am afraid of the old man according to the word!" Besides, if this little brother sits on the world and steps on everything, do you think he will find me unlucky? ”
Wen Ziqi thought about it carefully, and felt that what Lao Liu Tou said was right, no one would take it seriously because an old man who sold baked cakes said that you have the emperor's life. On the contrary, he will not blame him for not being an emperor because he is not allowed to talk nonsense! Unless this person is missing a string in his head.
Thinking of this, he got up and said, "Old man, I can't talk to you here, you see that my clothes are still wet!" With that, he pointed to his wet clothes.
Lao Liu Tou smiled awkwardly, and said knowingly: "I'm sorry, I'm delaying Brother Wen's time, this person will become a chatter as soon as he gets older, you are busy!" ”
Wen Ziqi nodded with a smile and said: "That's okay, I won't delay your old business, seeing that there will be more and more pedestrians on the road, if I always occupy the land, it will also affect your business!" With that, he stood up with the oiled paper bag and walked away.
The candle flame flickered, and in the dim secret room, Liu Biao looked at Yao Bingkun, who was soaking wet, and asked with concern: "What kind of Bingkun, the "soul searching technique" is going smoothly!" ”
Yao Binkun reached out and picked up a piece of brocade and wiped the sweat on his forehead, and said weakly: "Although there is nothing wrong with the spell casting, it seems that there is something wrong with it. ”
Liu Biao let out a puzzled "oh" and asked softly, "Is there anything weird?" Didn't it work? ”
Yao Binkun thought about it, shook his head and said: "I can't say whether it was successful or not, but I have a strange feeling, just like I opened a box and wanted to take the contents of it, but in a blink of an eye, I found that this box seemed to be a bottomless pit, and the things I saw just now disappeared in an instant!" ”
Liu Biao said coldly: "Do you mean that you are not as good as a person and can't take things out of the box, or has this box been transformed by a master so that people can't take things from inside?" ”
Yao Bingkun thought for a while and said thoughtfully: "It shouldn't be that my skills are not as good as others, but that this box has been opened and transformed." And this person is much more clever than me! ”
Liu Biao was stunned, stared at the person lying on the bed and said, "You mean to say that this patrol envoy is very likely to have been controlled by someone a long time ago!" And it has been given a higher level of secret art, which will be triggered whenever someone wants to perform soul searching on it? ”
Yao Bingkun frowned, and said slowly with a long breath: "It's very likely that this is the case, the reason why we haven't been able to get any useful information from him is because he doesn't know it in the first place!" ”
"An empty jar, no matter how you pour it, is that what you mean?" Liu Biao said slowly.
Yao Bingkun nodded and said, "This should be what it looks like." ”
When Liu Biao heard Yao Bingkun say this, he was immediately angry, and casually dropped the bowl of tea in his hand on the ground, and said viciously: "It means that we have spent a few days in vain to pry an empty house that has long been emptied!" ”
Yao Binkun leaned over and picked up the broken porcelain pieces on the ground one by one, and said while picking them up: "It's not just as simple as being busy for a few days, the key problem is that we are in trouble now!" ”
Liu Biao looked at Yao Bingkun and said to me cruelly: "What do you mean by causing trouble!" ”
Yao Bingkun looked at Liu Biao, who was in a wheelchair, and said with a smile: "We captured him when he returned to Kyoto!" ”
"That's right, I sent someone to pretend to be a robber on the way to intercept it!" Liu Biao said categorically.
Yao Bingkun sighed and said, "Qingzhou is about three days away from the capital. It's been five or six days since we had this in our hands! The dignified court officials have not seen anyone alive and disappeared for so many days, father-in-law, what do you say? ”
When Liu Biao heard Yao Bingkun say this, he immediately felt that this was a big disaster, so he turned his heart and said coldly: "Since this is the case, then the only way to let this person disappear from this world can be taken!" There is no proof of death, see how the court checks! ”
Yao Binkun hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Father-in-law, you must not be like this, if this person disappears in Qingzhou, then the imperial court will inevitably let my brother investigate thoroughly!" If you can't find out why, I'm afraid it's hard to explain to the above! ”
Liu Biao looked at the person lying on the couch coldly, and said slowly: "Since you can't kill it, can you only let it go?" Isn't there endless trouble in the future? ”
Yao Bingkun thought for a while and said softly: "Father-in-law, the son-in-law has a plan, you can listen to it!" ”
"Oh? Tell me what the plan is! Liu Biao was worried about how to deal with this person, and hurriedly asked as soon as he heard that Yao Bingkun had an idea.
"Make it amnesiac!" Yao Bingkun raised his eyebrows and said coldly.
After listening to this, Liu Biao pondered for a moment, then looked up and said, "Amnesia? There are drugs that can cause this condition. ”
Yao Bingkun nodded and said, "I once saw a dose called "Soul Leaving Soup" in an ancient book! The effect is to forget worries! ”
Liu Biao nodded and said, "Hearing the name, I feel that this decoction should act on the mind!" Then how sure are you that you can make this potion! ”
Yao Bingkun thought about it, gritted his teeth and said, "It's about sixty percent sure!" Because it is recorded in ancient books, I have never heard of many drug names, so I can only look for substitutes with similar medicinal properties! ”
Liu Biao said with a displeased face: "Only sixty percent sure, it's really not high, but there is no other way, I can only do this!" ”
Yao Binkun nodded and said, "Then father-in-law, the son-in-law will go back to the hall now and start researching this "Soul Leaving Soup"!" ”
Liu Biao let out a long sigh and said, "Okay, before you prepare the potion, in order to reduce the influence on this person's mind, I will imprison him alone in the dungeon of the Kuyun Temple!" ”
Yao Bingkun was slightly stunned, and asked puzzledly: "Why are you imprisoning him in the dungeon of Kuyun Temple!" ”
Liu Biao glanced at Yao Bingkun and said in a deep voice: "Let him listen to Sanskrit sounds every day, even if your medicinal effect is deviated, the most impressive thing in the future is the bells and Sanskrit sounds in the temple." There are no less than 100 monasteries in Qingzhou! Even if the court came to investigate, there was no way to investigate. ”
Yao Bingkun suddenly realized: "It's still my father-in-law who is far-sighted and has already thought about what to do if the matter is revealed. ”
Liu Biao waved his hand and said: "Don't give me this set, I don't need you to tout here, wouldn't it be better for you to study that ancient book during this time of your touting?" Hurry up and get down to business. Don't make me angry when I look at it in front of my eyes! ”
Yao Bingkun saw that Liu Biao was annoyed because he couldn't be 100% sure of the preparation of the decoction, so he wanted to slapped the horse verbally, but he didn't expect to be ruthlessly stopped as soon as he opened his mouth.
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, sighing that the world was cold and warm, even my loved ones. Just now, someone summoned me, and seeing that my "soul search" was not successful, he obviously felt a much colder attitude. When I heard that I couldn't be 100% sure about the decoction, my attitude changed sharply!
Yao Bingkun shook his head and sighed and said, "Then father-in-law, take care of your body, and the son-in-law will leave first!" ”
