017 Han Jie's request
I didn't sneak away in today's evening self-study. I patiently waited for Huang Lijun to finish her homework before I began to secretly chat with her under the drawer about WeChat. But Huang Lijun sat in the first row, and her tablemate Han Jie didn't come to help her cover tonight, so it didn't seem convenient to play with her mobile phone. In the end, Huang Lijun sent me a WeChat message saying that she would stop chatting and asked me to wait for her behind the bicycle shed after school for a while.
I felt a burst of joy in my heart! This was the first time Huang Lijun took the initiative to ask me to meet, and it was in the dimly lit corner behind the bicycle shed. Could it be that there will be a major breakthrough in the relationship between the two of us tonight?
After the evening self-study, I quickly packed my schoolbag and ran downstairs and hid behind the bicycle shed. I was so nervous that I kept tidying up my clothes and combing my hair with my hands, trying to keep my handsome look. Heck, I knew I should have bought a pack of chewing gum, what if I had bad breath? I stretched out my hand and sniffed it again, trying to remember what I had eaten at dinner.
Outside the carport, a lot of students came to pick up their bikes. I stood in the dark and looked out, but I never saw Huang Lijun coming. It wasn't until the bikes were almost finished that Huang Lijun came down from upstairs. She went to pick up the bike first, and then pushed it to my side.
"You're finally here! I've been waiting for a long time! I smiled and said to Huang Lijun. She wore a yellow sportswear tonight with a ponytail, looking very youthful and beautiful.
"I'm sorry......" Huang Lijun was a little shy. On a date in such a place, I could tell that she was also a little nervous, constantly looking left and right, as if she was afraid of being seen.
"It's okay! Never mind! I pretended to be generous and said, "As long as you come!" ”
Huang Lijun looked at my eyes, suddenly looked a little worried, and said, "Zhai Zisheng, I called you here, in fact, I want to ask you for a favor!" ”
"What's the rush? Say it! "I'm glad I had a chance to perform, and I wish she had spoken more.
"Actually, it's not a favor for me, it's a favor for Han Jie! She asked me to come to you. Huang Lijun's answer surprised me a little.
"Han Jie? What's wrong with her? "I wondered.
"She told me......" Huang Lijun hesitated: "There may be some dirty things in her house, which makes her family uneasy, so I hope you can ask your master to come over and have a look!" ”
After listening to Huang Lijun's words, I was suddenly a little disappointed. First, I have always tried to avoid letting Huang Lijun know that I have a master who specializes in doing things for people. I think that will affect my image in her mind. Second, Huang Lijun not only knows now, but also directly looks for my master, and I am just a messenger. Third, even if I do this favor, it is Han Jie who owes me a favor, and I can't win Huang Lijun's "favor". Alas!
But if a beauty asks for something, how can she not agree? I patted my chest and promised to go to the master tonight and talk to him face to face. Huang Lijun saw that I agreed, said "thank you" sweetly, and rode away. The "breakthrough" that I had been expecting for a long time did not have a chance to happen.
I was a little lost and walked all the way to Paiwei Village to find Master, but my Master was not at home, and his recent whereabouts were a bit erratic.
"Did you change your career to go out in the middle of the night and be a thief?" I came up with an evil conjecture and called Master's mobile phone number at the same time.
"Hey! Xiaosheng, what's the matter with you so late? Master answered the phone, but he seemed to be busy with something, and he was still a little out of breath.
I told Han Jie's family about inviting him to exorcise evil spirits, and asked him when he was free. The master seemed a little impatient, and replied, "I haven't been free lately, so you can let them go find other masters!" As long as you are a serious Taoist priest or monk, you don't have to come to me! ”
Master can't go if he doesn't go! I promised Huang Lijun, if I can't even do this little thing, will I still have the face to find her in the future? I had no choice but to say to Master again, "That's a matter from one of my classmates, and I was specially asked to invite you." I've already agreed, I'll lose face if you don't go! ”
Master sneered on the phone and asked, "You don't have face?" How many pounds and taels of face do you have? Is it worth it? ”
As soon as I heard that Master still refused to go, I began to pester him, saying Master, I am also introducing you to the door-to-door business! Besides, you see that I've been doing so well lately, and I'm begging you for such a small favor now, wouldn't you even be willing? I've been with you for so long, and I've never begged you. You'll help me once!
Master smiled wryly on the other end of the phone, and finally reluctantly agreed. But he added, "I'm going to be busy all night tonight, and I'm going to rest during the day tomorrow." Since you want to take care of this matter yourself, then you should go and take the lead first. You go to that person's house and come back and tell me if you find anything. I'll help them deal with it when I'm free in the next two days. ”
"Okay, that's fine!" I thanked Master and hung up the phone, but I muttered in my heart, "What has my Master been busy with lately?" If you don't make any money, you really don't even want to do your old job! ”
The next morning, during recess, I called Huang Lijun out and told her that my master had agreed, but let me go to explore the truth first. Han Jie also came to school, and she came out to see me with Huang Lijun. As soon as I saw Han Jie up close, I felt that her face was shrouded in a black gas, and it really looked like a haunted house.
Han Jie told me that her whole family has been feeling a little unwell recently, but she can't tell where she is sick. I went to the hospital for a comprehensive check-up, but nothing was wrong. At that time, the doctor only said that it was probably due to poor rest, which caused a nervous breakdown. But they went back and took a leave of absence to rest for a few days, but it didn't get better. Later, I saw a Chinese medicine again, and the old Chinese medicine doctor said that it was an internal deficiency that needed to be made up. But they've eaten a lot of tonic stews, and they still don't get better. Later, when Han Jie's father got up at night, he heard some strange noises, so he began to wonder if there was something dirty at home.
I asked Han Jie, "Have you invited other masters to see it?" ”
Han Jie said: "I invited a Taoist priest, but it doesn't seem to be of much use." Later, my parents heard that your master was very famous and should be a master with real skills, so we wanted to ask him for help. ”
I nodded and said to Han Jie: "At noon in a while, I will go back with you and go to your house to see the situation first." If I find anything, I'll tell Master. ”
After school at noon, I borrowed a bicycle from Huang Lijun and went home with Han Jie. Her family lives in a small neighborhood on the west side of the county. The community is relatively new, but the buildings are not high, and the greenery is not bad. Han Jie's house is on the fourth floor, and when I went up to the door, I saw that there was a talisman posted on the door frame, and there were a lot of stickers everywhere in the room. But I knew at a glance that those symbols were scribbled, and there was no discipline at all. Obviously, what Han Jie's family invited before was a swaggering fake Taoist priest, even more fake than my master!
Han Jie's parents are both at home, so they should have waited at home when they knew that I was coming. I politely asked my uncle and aunt, and they were more polite to me, but at first glance, my face was also invaded by yin qi. Han Jie also has a younger brother who is only two years old, and her mother said that she was born after the opening of the second child a few years ago, and she is fifteen years younger than Han Jie. The little guy looks very cute, but the yin qi on his face is the most serious.
I walked around the room carefully, but I didn't find anything strange, and wondered: Where is this ghost? So I said to Han Jie, it's daytime, maybe the dirty things are hiding, so I can only wait for the evening when I come back to take a look. Han Jie said, then we will be waiting for you at home at night.
After school in the afternoon, I went to find Master again. This time, the master was there, but he was packing up with a backpack and seemed to be preparing to go out of the house.
I asked him, "Master, where are you going?" ”
Master said, "I'm not going anywhere!" Why do you ask so much? ”
I said, "Master, didn't you already promise me that I would go and help my classmates exorcise evil spirits?" You're away now, when will you have to come back? ”
The master was a little impatient and said, "I'm not going far away, I'll be back early tomorrow morning!" Don't ask so much about your little kids! ”
Treat me like a child now? If you always tell me to do this and that, is it considered child labor? I couldn't help but curse. But you can't say that!
I told Master in detail what I saw at Han Jie's house during the day, and asked him when he planned to deal with it. Master said, "I'm not free tonight. If this is the only situation you are talking about, it is true that there should be a ghost invading the family, but it will not be a powerful demon. Well, you'd better go and see for yourself tonight! But be careful, don't force it! If you're not sure you can do it yourself, wait until I get back. Just in case, you can bring those prop charms of mine and take whatever you need. After saying that, the master picked up his backpack and went out.
No way? I listened to Master's words in a daze, and I didn't come back to my senses until his back flashed out of the door. My master, this is too irresponsible, isn't it? I said before that the stalls in the ghost market would be handed over to me to take care of, but now even the exorcism of ghosts will be handed over to me?
There's no way, I've already promised Han Jie to go to her house tonight, especially I don't want Huang Lijun to think that I can't even do this little thing. Alas, you have to go hard! I went to the car stall to get glutinous rice and black dog blood, and then went to Master's room to get some commonly used talismans. Master knows how to draw many kinds of symbols, but I don't know many of them. Among them, the Xiangmen charm is the most effective, and it can be attached to the body to prevent being ghosted. I thought about it before leaving, and then went back and took the master's robe and peach sword. It's not really useful, but it's okay to put it on display. Maybe it's a cowardly ghost, and I'll just scare it away.
