257, Mystery (9)
"Hey, hey, hey? What's wrong with you? Huang Zhou didn't know what was going on on Wu Xiaobei's side, and when he saw Wu Xiaobei suddenly screaming and no response, he was busy chasing after him on the other end of the phone.
With a "snap", a pillar of light suddenly appeared out of thin air in the five fingers that could not be seen in the darkness, and it also illuminated an extremely hideous and terrifying face.
Wu Xiaobei and Pudding were already in a state of dissipation, and their eyes were so frightened that their eyes were about to fly out, and they hugged each other tightly with tears and snot, and they didn't have a single handy play at hand, which was really exciting.
The hideous face did not laugh naturally, but instead showed a surprised expression, and did not make a big demon spell to devour Wu Xiaobei and Zhang Pudding, but urged the mana, let the pillar of light face the two faces, and asked with concern: "Are you two okay?" ”
As soon as they heard the grimace speak, the two of them screamed together in fright, closing their eyes tightly, Wu Xiaobei shouted in a trembling voice: "The body is melted, and there is only the head left!" ”
The grimace urged the pillar of light to shine on the bodies of the two people, and asked, "Isn't it still there, are you kidding?" ”
"If it's the devil, just say something terrifying," Wu Xiaobei closed his eyes and pretended to open his mouth, "It's so annoying!" ”
"It's so annoying," Pudding said in Wu Xiaobei's arms.
"What devil? It's me!? The grimace looked surprised.
"Who are you?" Wu Xiaobei closed his eyes and deliberately asked in a high voice to hide his timidity.
"Yes, who are you, the one who collects electricity bills?" Pudding said in a loud voice.
"I'm a housekeeper teacher, what's the matter with you two?" The grimace said.
Wu Xiaobei and Pudding didn't believe it, and at the same time they each opened one eye and looked at the grimace carefully, yes, they were really the housekeeper teacher.
The two minds calmed down slightly, Wu Xiaobei swallowed his saliva, calmed his tense throat, and asked: "The world suddenly fell into the abyss of darkness, you, you are not afraid at all, you are too calm, right?" ”
"It's a little weird," Pudding also calmed down a lot, but for the sake of insurance, he still clung to Wu Xiaobei and didn't let go.
"What's so strange about this, we ran out of electricity and were forcibly cut off," explained the housekeeper teacher, "I received several power outage notices, so I prepared a flashlight in case of emergency." ”
"Why don't you buy electricity and prepare a flashlight so stupid?" Pudding jumped off Wu Xiaobei and complained.
"Because there's no money left in the bank," the butler teacher shrugged and said with a wry smile.
"How so?" Wu Xiaobei and Pudding exclaimed in unison, "When Sir Hoffman left last year, he left us 10 million US dollars, how could it be spent in less than a year?" ”
"I've also cut back on expenses to save money," Pudding emphasized, "and I don't even dare to buy more raw materials just for scientific research, what a sacrifice!" ”
"Yes, I can testify to this," Wu Xiaobei pointed to the approximate location of the copy in the dark, "My copy doesn't even have decent clothes. ”
"In this case," the butler teacher said to them with a grimace, "I have to adjust your transaction flow, analyze and analyze, and I will definitely find the answer." ”
"Yes, I really want to know where the money is spent, why is it all of a sudden, and I haven't spent much," Wu Xiaobei scratched his head.
The housekeeper teacher shook his head and said with a wry smile: "You can see it when you go upstairs." ”
Wu Xiaobei and Pudding, walking from the darkness of the basement to the light on the first floor, had a feeling of being reborn after death, and their excitement was inexplicable.
The two sat in the black leather sofa, looked at the 100-inch LCD TV opposite, the black bottomless pit was like a bottomless pit, and looked around the front and back, up and down, left and right, and there was no bright place, and immediately felt extremely dull and interesting.
"Hey, Teacher Housekeeper," although he felt a little excessive, Wu Xiaobei couldn't help but say, "This feels too decadent, like traveling back to the old society, the effect of black and white photos." Can you get some electricity? Is it also good to have a few light bulbs on and on? ”
"Alas! That can't be helped," the housekeeper teacher hesitated for a moment, and reluctantly took out a charging card from his jacket pocket, and said with a smile, "My house is out of power, I just charged a thousand, let's charge it for you first." ”
"Long live the housekeeper teacher!!" Pudding leapt to his feet and cheered loudly, he had long been tired of the blackened, lifeless hall, after all, the splendor of the lights was only about the lighting effect.
After turning off the independent electric switch of the large computer in the basement and the "computer housekeeper" control equipment, the management teacher walked to the electric switch box, in addition to a daily power supply, the remaining 20 or so electric switches were turned off and turned off, so that he dared to plug in the recharge card on the smart meter, the teacher sighed while charging: "It's just a beast that eats electricity, if you don't turn it off, this thousand yuan won't last a few minutes." ”
After the meter was recharged, the "da-da" sounded twice, and dozens of large and small lights in the hall immediately turned on, and the twilight outside the window immediately turned into an intoxicating scenery.
"Haha!" Wu Xiaobei and Pudding immediately came and gave each other a double high-five, as if celebrating a major victory.
Pudding turned on the TV and jumped on the sofa, thinking that the TV program was very exciting, even the news; Wu Xiaobei casually opened four bags of various snacks, ate while watching, and felt that the news looked like an American blockbuster, ate a few bites, felt that his mouth was very dry, asked the pudding what to drink, and got up to go to the refrigerator in the kitchen to get it, and just walked a few steps, the phone on the table rang.
Wu Xiaobei picked it up and listened to it, it turned out to be Huang Zhou, and then he remembered the unfinished phone call just now, when it was dark in front of him, and he didn't know where to throw the cordless phone away.
"Hey, what's going on?" Huang Zhou on the other end of the phone was worried.
"Just now? Ah, haha, what will happen? Wu Xiaobei wanted to say that he was startled by the power outage, and immediately realized that he would be ridiculed by Huang Zhou, so he changed his words, "The housekeeper teacher joked with us and engaged in anti-theft drills, which was quite realistic, but I was not afraid at all." ”
"What I heard here is the sound of ghosts crying wolves, killing pigs and slaughtering cows," Huang Zhou didn't believe it, and laughed, "I was really taken aback." ”
"I~~?" Wu Xiaobei's long-pitched question, as if he had heard a big ridiculous thing, and then pretended to be a man and denied it, "How is it possible?" You don't know, the housekeeper is old, we are coaxing him to play, of course Pudding and I have to shout very loudly, in terms of performance, this is called into the play. Wu Xiaobei winked at the pudding and continued, "From your point of view, it has to be called dedication." ”
"Okay, you're talking about me straight to the core," Huang Zhou knew that this old friend of his loved face and didn't want to dwell on this topic, and continued, "Your fate is 'Seventy-Six'. ”
"Yes, yes, let's talk about this," Wu Xiaobei suddenly remembered this and asked as he walked towards the kitchen, "If you were scared just now, you were also scared by what you said about 'Seventy-Six'." ”
"This is the most murderous hexagram between heaven, earth and man," Huang Zhou explained on the other end of the phone, "There is no hexagram." ”
"What do you mean by unexplained?" Wu Xiaobei asked as he opened the silver-white double-door refrigerator and poured himself a glass of orange juice and a glass of apple juice for the pudding.
"That is to say, calculate this great danger, when it befalls you, you have no way to dodge, you can only take it as a matter of course, and go through it, which can be described as nine deaths and a lifetime." Huang Zhou said.
"Ah, good, good, it's wonderful, there's still a lifetime left." Remembering the previous passage in which Pudding asked him to take the lead as a hero, Wu Xiaobei sighed and said, "This is the so-called 'inescapable', right?" ”
"That's probably what it means," Huang Zhou also sighed on the other end of the phone and said, "It's just that this time the trouble is bigger, and this 'calamity' should be the 'calamity' that will never recover." ”
"Doomed? Isn't there still a lifetime left? Wu Xiaobei was stunned, and it took a long time to come to his senses, and he said a little sneeringly, "You mean I'm going to die?" ”
"Of course not," Huang Zhou said with a smile on the other end of the phone, "I'm just describing you as having a lot of trouble." It is necessary to face it with 120,000 spirits, and it is possible to create a different future. ”
"Huh, the future?" Wu Xiaobei smiled bitterly, "When you talk, how can you talk like that strange cat, like an entrepreneur or a political leader."
"I decided to go over and help you," Huang Zhou breathed a sigh of relief and said on the phone, "I have already bought a train ticket for six o'clock tonight, and I expect to be there for you at nine o'clock tomorrow morning." ”
"Enough friends," Wu Xiaobei gave a thumbs up and said sincerely, "I won't say much on the side, I'll wait for you here with wine." ”
"Don't take it lightly," Huang Zhou warned, "I'm afraid that a big man will visit you at midnight tonight." The one hundred and eight golden talismans I sent you half a month ago, did you paste them in the corresponding positions? ”
"It's not just pasted, it's just glued with 'five zero two', and you can't pull it down with a shovel," Wu Xiaobei sat next to the pudding, put the apple juice in front of it, and continued, "According to the instructions you draw, the position is all right." ”
"This time, you finally didn't put these treasures on the shelf, or simply threw them under the table," Huang Zhou said with a sigh of relief on the other end of the phone, "Otherwise, I'm afraid it's too late now." ”
"You said it," Wu Xiaobei said proudly after taking a sip of orange juice, "Any door, any painting, any window, any mirror, all water sources are the doors of the other world to the mortal world," Wu Xiaobei looked at the news on TV and said, "They can also observe me through these things, if they don't use magic talismans to seal them all, then my life will be like a mollusk that has gone to the carapace, and it will be fatally attacked at any time." ”
"Yes, yes, 'on the side of the tiger and wolf, how can you sleep peacefully'?" Huang Zhou said approvingly on the other end of the phone.
"And I hate it when others monitor my life," Wu Xiaobei said as he changed the stage, "and it's all-round surveillance, that feeling is like being stripped naked and put in the palm of your hand to look at it, how awkward and awkward it is, how disgusting and disgusting." ”
"Well, that's good. Wait for me at home," Huang Zhou finally instructed, "Don't go out at night." In the middle of the night, if someone knocks on the door, don't pay attention to him, there is the blessing of the golden talisman of the Buddha, no matter who comes, you will be helpless. ”
"Is it really that powerful?" Wu Xiaobei jumped up and ran quickly towards his bedroom, "It's not a lie, right?" ”
"Fu is just a form, it's actually a kind of energy boundary wall," Huang Zhou explained, "It's equivalent to an invisible copper wall that people from the other world can't cross." ”
"Okay, don't say more," Wu Xiaobei entered the bedroom in three steps and two steps, rummaged through the cabinets, and finally found the spirit talisman sent to him by Huang Zhou, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "You are ready to prepare, get on the train quickly, I will listen to you, I will not go anywhere, see you later!" ”
