Chapter 453: A New Bookstore

"Hahaha......" Ma Yuan touched his chin and laughed, I almost couldn't hold it back, and stepped forward to punch him hard, but I restrained it, it was a very rude and brainless behavior.

"Mr. Zhang really looks up to me, I'm a layman, just play with my own preferences, I'm not a professional, how dare I design your things? I can't do it, I can't do it. ”

I curled the corners of my mouth, "I'm not going to let you labor for free, I'll pay, whether I'm happy with the design or not, how about I buy your design?" ”

"If Mr. Zhang has to talk to me about interests, then I am willing." He put away the smile on his lips and looked at me, and from his fierce eyes I saw a complex murderous aura.

My back was cold, that kind of murderous aura was not the kind of murderous aura that a cold-faced killer simply wanted to kill you, but a torture from body to soul.

He first occupies your soul, then tortures you from the body, and finally controls your soul, making your life worse than death, and finally he will pinch your soul, make you do things against your will, let yourself immerse yourself in endless pain, and watch this "you" and that "you" fight each other.

"What's wrong with Mr. Zhang, is it a cold today, or I think the air conditioner in the bookstore is turned on a little too much, then I'll turn it off."

"No, Boss Ma, I have to go back to the hotel, I'll bring my cousin over to buy books another day, and she has already read the few books she bought before."

I smiled and turned to leave, he didn't keep me, I pretended to get in the car and left, but I didn't really go back to the hotel, but took a detour and parked the car behind the bookstore.

I've seen it before, and there are no windows on the back side of the bookstore, so at least I can't see the back of the bookstore from the cash register on the first floor, so I want to set up a formation here, and if something evil approaches, I will immediately sense it.

In the bookstore just now, I was standing so close to Ma Yuan, I secretly sensed his breath, but I didn't find anything abnormal, it should be the same as I judged before, this old fox hid his breath very deeply, he was a high-level demon.

I set up a formation here, I can control the entire bookstore in it, if he is a high-level demon or a core member of the organization, there will definitely be other demons to exchange information with him, so the formation will naturally catch suspicious situations.

Behind the bookstore was a green belt, and there were no people around, so I sat down cross-legged in front of the car, using the car to block part of my view so that passers-by would not be frightened when they saw it.

I set up the formation and got up to get in the car and leave, when suddenly a sharp wind sound came from behind me on the left, I quickly turned around, and a "rain" had fallen.

I was taken aback, took a few steps back and stood next to it, only to find that it was not rain, but someone poured some water over, and a white mist rose in front of me, and the formation failed!

I was amazed, it was obvious that the water was deliberately spilled by someone, I looked up and checked, according to the direction of the water, it was likely to be splashed from the second floor of the bookstore, but the second floor was not leaning against this side of the window, how did the water splash down?

After a few seconds, I realized that it was splashed directly through the wall of the second floor, or it was splashed down from the wall of the second floor standing in the air, and it was obvious that this was what Ma Yuan did.

This guy has already sensed that I am setting up the formation here, so he deliberately splashed water to make my formation fail.

When I think about it, I can't help but blush, as if I have received several loud slaps.

I have specially arranged so many formations, and it is the first time that I have failed so embarrassingly, this guy Ma Yuan is indeed very powerful, and my every move has been seen through by him so easily.

I pulled the car door and got into the car, and walked away in a gray way.

I was extremely frustrated and embarrassed all morning, and the feeling was like running naked on the street naked and being watched and photographed, which made You Lao probably scold me so much that I couldn't raise my head if I knew, and I was too embarrassed to him.

Within 10 minutes of setting up the formation, the mana of the formation is very weak, and it is easy to be cracked by a spellcaster with a strong spell.

I finished my business and ate with Zhao Heizi in the hotel cafeteria, and I was embarrassed to summarize with him the conclusions I had reached from this morning's failure.

The first is that I underestimated Ma Yuan's ability, and second, Ma Yuan is definitely a powerful character who is equal to my rank, or even higher than me, and is very likely to be the leader of the demon organization. Third, Mike's violent death had a lot to do with him, and he plagiarized Mike's design manuscripts.

"Then what should we do now, do we want to have strict control over this Ma Yuan?" Zhao Heizi frowned and asked.

I shook my head, "No, Ma Yuan is already wary of me, he cracked my formation, this is just a warning he gave me, whatever I do next, he will be especially careful." ”

"Then if we indulge him like this, he will become more and more arrogant, and even their plans will continue to be arrogant under our noses."

"Yes, their plans have never stopped, we are forever half a beat slower, but there is no way, even if we jointly control Ma Yuan now, or even say that we will destroy him, he will not let go of the specific plan of their organization, he is a scheming old fox."

"You mean we continue to deal with him?"

I nodded silently, Zhao Heizi didn't speak, just punched his knee angrily.

After eating, I went home, Wang Haitang had already gotten up, because of the relationship between staying up late on the night shift, she usually had to rest until after 12 o'clock before getting up.

"Cousin, why did you come back at noon, are you okay?" She asked me with a smile, she was cleaning up her room, she seemed to have really returned to her original appearance in the past few days, and even more lively and cheerful than before, and her personality had changed more than a little.

"It's okay, didn't you go to that secretary to buy books before? I passed by this morning and saw that it was already open, why don't I take you there now? ”

Wang Haitang's eyes widened with excitement when he heard this, "Have you opened the door?" Okay, okay, I'll pack up and go with you right away, I haven't read any books in the past few days, it's really a bit boring. ”

Looking at her impatient, I have an indescribable feeling in my heart, from the time she came to my house until she fell unconscious, I didn't find that she had the habit of reading books, but now she seems to have an irrepressible love for reading books and strange bookstores.

More than 20 minutes later, I drove her out, on the way Wang Haitang still couldn't suppress her anticipation and excitement, kept talking to me about books, she said that the bookstore must be very attractive, otherwise how would I love to go so much.

It was as if she was asking me a question about why I liked the bookstore.

I smiled faintly, "I also went there by chance, and many of the books on the second floor of that bookstore are old books that the owner has picked up from various places, and I like things that are older and have stories, so I think that bookstore is quite interesting." ”

Wang Haitang immediately shook his head with some resistance when he heard this, "I still don't want to go to the second floor, I don't like ancient things, especially things that have passed through several hands, which will make me feel weird." ”

"Really? Why does it feel that way? ”

"Cousin, you should know that jade can't be given away casually, jade has spirituality, if it changes hands, it will bring disaster to the later owner, before my grandmother died, she wanted to leave one of its jade rings to my mother, my mother didn't want it, or put it in the coffin and put it in the ground with her."

"Is that why?" I asked curiously, it was the first time that Wang Haitang had talked to me about her mother, and she used to say it, but it was all about ordinary things.

Wang Haitang nodded and sighed deeply, "Yes, because I have a cousin, she got a jade bracelet from someone else, it seems to be her relative, I didn't expect that she would often get sick after wearing that jade bracelet, and she would have nightmares, so I found Mr. Yin Yang to show her, saying that it was caused by the jade bracelet, and my cousin was so frightened that she quickly returned the jade bracelet to the previous owner, so she would not have nightmares anymore, and she rarely got sick." ”

"So amazing?" I said with a frown.

I have heard the legend that jade cannot change hands before, and there is a certain amount of truth, after all, the attributes of jade itself are yin, and it is spiritual, but these things from Wang Haitang's mouth make me feel very intriguing, as if she is throwing some clues to me intentionally or unintentionally.

"Yes, so my mother also told me not to take things that have been used by others, especially those that are very old, the soul of the previous master and his breath are left on it, especially when the master dies, his soul will be attached to that object, so cousin, I suggest you don't bring those books on the second floor to the house, I think it's quite evil."

"Okay, I'll try to get rid of this old book collection problem." I smiled at her and immediately changed the subject.

When I arrived at the bookstore, I led Wang Haitang in, and she was a little restrained.

"Boss Ma, I brought my cousin over to buy books." I patted Wang Haitang on the shoulder, "This is the owner of the bookstore, and he is very good." ”

As soon as Ma Yuan saw Wang Haitang, he immediately showed an elder-like smile, and he also got up and walked around from the cash register, in front of Wang Haitang, "I heard your cousin say that your name is Wang Haitang before, yes, it's a good name, if I didn't make a mistake, you should have been born in April, right?" ”

Wang Haitang was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise, "Boss Ma, how do you know?" I was indeed born in April. ”

Boss Ma smiled slightly, "Because the flowering period of begonia flowers is April, and the fruit is in August ~ September, I generally like to find the name of the flower when naming girls, so I infer that you were born in April, and if you are a boy, you will be born in August or September." ”
