Chapter 8: Death

The rest time is always short, and as soon as the eyes are closed and opened, seven or eight hours have passed.

A new day begins, but it's just as dull as ever: getting up, brushing your teeth, going to class, and worrying about whether the teacher will call your name when asking questions in the next class, but such a day will become a beautiful memory for a lifetime in the rest of our lives, we call it youth.

The only difference between me and the others is that in my current youth, I have to worry not only about the above, but also about the female ghost in the grove, and fortunately, she lives at the back of the school building, and I am in the complex, otherwise I don't know how brave I must have to step into the classroom.

She was injured by my Five Thunder Talisman that night, and I don't think she will trouble me for the next few days, but I don't have anything on me now, and it's not my style to sit still, so I decided to take advantage of the lunch break to go to the old town again to buy something to get ready.

I texted my dad before I went to bed last night and told him I had no money. He didn't ask me anything else, only to call me this morning. So the money should arrive at noon.

After school at noon, I went to the ATM to withdraw my money, and then took a taxi straight to the old town.

After navigating a few rubbish-stinky alleyways, I finally found the shop. The store is not big, similar to the small shop that sells breakfast at the entrance of the school, there is a wooden recliner outside the store, it looks like it has been a few years, the paint color on it is not recognizable, and you can only see the position of the hand is black and shiny.

And on the deck chair lay an old man, sloppy, squinting at the moment with little eyes and basking in the sun.

Probably sensing that someone was coming, he pointed his hand to the store and said weakly: "Take what you want, just come out and pay."

This tone, not to mention the consciousness of treating customers as gods, is like an uncle, completely like a posture of buying if you want to buy and not buying.

But I don't bother to care about that, only rich people do, obviously I'm not.

So I went into the shop and picked up a few things I needed, and I took a random food bag and brought them out.

The old man opened his eyes and glanced at it, and said, "One hundred and eight."

I experienced the old man's approach once last time, so I didn't make a fuss. Last time, I took a little less than eighty-nine, and this time one hundred and eight should be about the same.

But this is one hundred and eight, even if all the heroes of Liangshan are there, one person can get two packs of spicy strips, and my heart hurts for a while.

The old man who got the money squinted his eyes and smiled at me, but I was in no mood to laugh with him, I was a profiteer.

Just as I turned around to leave, he suddenly called me from behind, I turned around, only to see him sit up straight, with a twitchy expression, and said, "Young man, are you still alive?" Nice, nice"

Seriously, I don't know if the old man is complimenting me, but if so, this is the second time I've been complimented and I feel the urge to beat him.

But I held back, and said with an expression that was more ugly than crying although I was laughing: "Thanks to you, uncle, I am still young, how can I die?" ”

Actually, what I want to say is "thanks to your uncle", but for the sake of his age, the loess is covered behind his ears, and I don't bother to bother with him.

He also seemed to hear the irony in my words that he was old and that even if he died, he would die first, so he stood up and looked at me, and said, "Young man, being young is a good thing, but it is not necessarily a good thing, although the old man is old, but fortunately, he has lived safely to this age, and he has no regrets in this life." I won't hide it from you, the old man knows some skills in recognizing people's faces, I see you..."

"You see that I am magnificent and talented, and I must be the dragon and phoenix among people in the future, right?"

I sarcastically interrupted him. Just kidding, as the heir of the orthodox Sanqing charm, I will be fooled by a charlatan like you?

I saw him stunned slightly, and said: "No, I mean look at your eyebrows, there will be a life and death calamity within seven days, but this calamity is a little wrong, can you give me your birth date, I will give you a detailed calculation, after all, the old man has lived for so long, and it is the first time he has encountered your situation, so he can't help but itch for a while."

ed., continue to compile. In today's society, there are many charlatans, under the guise of practicing medicine to help the world, and their means are just to memorize the gossip and deal with it with the eight characters of the birthday, but how can the gossip divination be generalized by just the gossip arrangement, and the wide range of concepts involved is so wide that it is difficult for ordinary people to spy on one or two even if they are poor in their lives, which is what I later told me to a friend who specializes in this way.

And the reason why he stared at me, I guess, was because he saw me buy these strange things from him twice, and thought that I was the kind of person who blindly saved himself when he encountered dirty things, or that he came here to buy comfort with a ghost in his heart. This situation is not a pit and a quasi, when the time comes, talk a little bigger, and then sell some magic weapons and things like the magic weapon of the house, I go, think about it is a violent industry, I even suspect that this is the old man's main business.

But uncle, if you cheat money, you cheat money, why do you curse me. But I can't scold him, no, people are so old, if he gets angry and has some illness, he can't think of burping, where can I reason.

I'm going to follow his wishes, and I'll let you do the math and see if you can name a flower.

So I told him all about my birthday, name, and so on, and as for gender, he wasn't blind, so did he want me to take off my pants to verify his identity?

The old man who got my information closed his eyes and calculated for a while, then took out a notebook to write and draw, and after about ten minutes, the old man raised his head and put away the pen and paper.

I saw him let out a sigh of relief and said, "This calamity can be solved, and the key to solving this calamity is a cat." But you have a lack of character, and if my guess is correct, the person who named you must also know, so you can live to this day, and your name accounts for a lot of credit. But when you were nineteen years old, there was a death calamity, and that calamity was the last calamity of your life, because according to the hexagrams, that calamity was ten deaths, which means that from today onwards, you will not live for more than two years."

Seriously, after seeing the old man's actions, I thought he might be a person with real skills, but after he said this, I was 100% sure that he was a liar, didn't he just want to cheat more money?

So I pretended to be scared and hurriedly asked, "Master, what should I do?" ”

If it's good, he'll recommend something from his store to me, and I'll recommend it, but I can't afford it anyway, and I won't buy it.

Who knew that he actually stood up, shook his hand and entered the door of the store, closed the door with a bang, and threw out a sentence: "There is no solution to this catastrophe"

This...... Which one are you playing? No, .......

I was stunned, then reacted, ran forward in a panic, and knocked on the door vigorously.

"Uncle, save me, save me, uncle, open the door, uncle, what are you doing? Uncle, help me, uncle... Uncle you... Your uncle, your uncle's. ”
