Chapter 34: The Rumored Master Zhang
"Master Zhang?"
"Now the very famous Master Zhang, the outside world is rumored that he understands feng shui, can exorcise demons, can cure all kinds of strange diseases, and has dealings with many powerful people, my father has long asked someone to ask him to save me, but Master Zhang is not a person who is willing to go out of the mountain easily, my father finally had to beg the Jiang family to do everything he could, and the Jiang family came forward Master Zhang came over."
I always feel a little familiar with this Master Zhang, as if I have heard of it, but I can't remember it, I thought about it carefully, and suddenly remembered that the only person who survived the bus that died before relied on Master Zhang's Fu Bao's life. And that life-saving charm, I remember very much because it was my grandfather's handwriting, but I never heard my grandfather mention this person. I told them at the time that this Master Zhang was not simple, but Zhou Xuran looked at Master Zhang with a sneering expression, and Ji Ran disdainfully said that he was a fake ghost and a fake monster, but what Li Tingting said about Master Zhang was very unusual.
"Master Zhang is really a master, as rumored, he is as powerful as the outside world rumores, and he has already helped you solve it."
"When Master Zhang saw me, his brows furrowed, and he said that there was something wrong with me, that I was a ghost and frightened. He asked my father to send someone to take me with him to the place where I had an accident, and he frowned when he saw the ancient building, my father had given him a large sum of money before, and he had already accepted the money, and he finally went in, saying that if he could help me summon spirits, I would be fine.
But that day he went in for a long time and didn't come out, until the middle of the night very embarrassed to come out of it, I saw the fear he was suppressing, he didn't say anything, but he looked like he had experienced life and death, I don't know if he also saw those unusual eyes.
Master Zhang said that he had a way to help me, and vaguely said that the unusual things in this building had been cleared by him, saying that there was a strong suction in the ancient building, which could suck away the ominous aura on my body, and we had to follow his instructions, not only to help me, but also to help our family's career in a short time.
My father listened to his words and bought this ancient building from the Jiang family, and enshrined this ancient building according to Master Zhang's instructions, Master Zhang would take me in every once in a while to say that it was to absorb my ominous aura, I was blindfolded and Master Zhang went in, but I could feel the murderous eyes in the dark. I was better on the surface, my father could feel my peace most of the time, but only I knew that in fact my situation was getting worse, I could feel my energy being sucked away, but there was nothing I could do about it, the apparent calm was at least better than the hysteria I had before.
I was often in a coma, and those dark eyes always appeared in my dreams and lingered in front of my eyes.
After our family was guided by Master Zhang, we undertook several projects that were not very optimistic before, but we really received high returns, and the scale of the enterprise expanded rapidly. And my situation is getting worse and worse, but Master Zhang avoids it, and no matter what my father does, he refuses to come out to help us.
Then I became the situation you saw when you came in, maybe you really saved my life, but I was in despair for a long time, and I didn't even dare to imagine that I would get better. ”
When I heard this, I remembered the first time I saw Liu Zhen, the village full of desolation and despair surrounded by death buses, Liu Zhen said that he was in charge of part of the demolition project, and he represented the Li family.
And this Master Zhang may have also seen the evil spirit, this Master Zhang not only helped the evil spirit to absorb Li Tingting's evil qi, but also very likely to help the evil spirit to fuel the evil qi that emerged in various places, so it seems that this Master Zhang is a magic stick dressed in the skin of a master, no wonder Zhou Xuran and Ji Ran looked disdainful of him before, this person does have a problem, it seems that there is still something to gain today.
Knowing what happened, Li Tingting's body was still very weak, and I could see that she was also a little tired, so I got up and left her room.
When I arrived at the living room on the first floor, I saw Zhou Xuran and the Li family talking happily, Li Tingting's father had a special banquet and wanted to entertain us to express his gratitude, and Ji Ran and Zhou Xuran had agreed to stay.
I didn't want to have anything to do with the Li family and Liu Zhen, and excused myself and said that I had something to deal with and wanted to leave first, Li Tingting's father was a little reluctant not to send me to the door, "Thank you for your kindness, our Li family owes you a life, and it will be useful to our Li family in the future, as long as I can do it, you can just mention it." He asked Liu Zhen to send me in person, but it made Ji Ran and Zhou Xuran a little uneasy, what I knew from Li Tingting, I suddenly didn't know how to face the familiar but unfamiliar Liu Zhen in front of me.
Liu Zhen still looked at me with a smile as before, and said intimately: "I'll send you this time." Suddenly, his expression was a little sad: "This may be our last farewell." ”
"Okay then." I ignored Ji Ran and Zhou Xuran's opposing attitude, because I was suddenly a little moved, remembering the parting we had ten years ago, ten years passed in a hurry, and there could be several decades in life, and who would have thought that our reunion ten years later would no longer be beautiful, maybe we have all changed, I know that this is really the last goodbye.
We don't say anything because we know each other too well. After a long time, Liu Zhen looked at me: "I know we can't go back, but I still don't want you to know that I am unbearable, I would rather we not meet again this time, at least the memories are the best." ”
"Liu Zhen, next, what are your plans, Li Tingting should have returned to normal, what about you?"
Liu Zhen smiled a little bitterly: "I, let's live like this, we have no choice, I once owed her too much, many things are caused by me, and torturing each other until I am old is the biggest punishment for me." It sounded a little uncomfortable to me, but I didn't say anything, because I knew that sometimes other people's feelings were really unclear, no matter which position I was on.
"I'm here, thank you for sending me." I opened the door to get out of the car, "Will we meet again?" ”
"I don't think we'll ever see each other again." When I finished saying this, Liu Zhen was very silent, I knew that although I was a little decisive, I should be good for him and me.
"That's right," Liu Zhen smiled helplessly.
"You know, the thing I regret the most is missing you, I never had the courage to face you back then, when I saw your unusualness, it was my cowardice at the time, now I think about it, it's just that I realized it too late."
I turned around and looked at Liu Zhen directly: "I have never blamed you, Liu Zhen should not be like this in the future, don't live in the past now, just like we have all changed, and we can't go back, don't dwell on the previous obsessions." ”
After saying that, I left without looking back, and Liu Zhen stayed in place for a long time and disappeared behind me.
A new day, a new beginning, and today is the first day of my new job.
Master Fang's house, the environment is really good, and it is also very quiet, his housekeeper does his best to tidy up the yard for him, we have met each other, and he is also very polite to me. It's good here, but the traffic is a little inconvenient, I need to run down the mountain to catch the bus to work, unfortunately I was late on the first day of work.
Editor-in-chief Cao of "Persona Magazine" has a very unfriendly attitude towards me, I know that it is not good for me to be late on the first day of work as a newcomer, but he is a little cynical to me between the lines, I can still hear it, I want to explain it to him, and promise that I will never be like this in the future, but he didn't wait for me to finish speaking and directly used his attitude not to be modest, and he liked to make excuses and criticized me very harshly when he did wrong things, which was simply a crime.
I wish I had a little too much, but when he finally assigned me a job, he was not in charge of the field and the head office as Zhou Xuran told me before, and he even said mercilessly in front of many colleagues in the company: "The revival of our "Gonzo" magazine is inseparable from the efforts of every member here, we are not short of manpower here, and people who are not able to shoehorn in are not welcome, you also see that everyone has their own position, and there is Xiao Yu in the field. She has been responsible for docking with the head office, doing a good job and there is no reason to replace you as a newcomer, you have submitted a manuscript here before, but the writing is very bad, and you are not qualified to be an editor, and a newcomer who is responsible for the collection work has just resigned, and a position is vacated, which is to collect strange and similar supernatural things that happen in various places, go to the scene to understand the situation, and record it as material for the "strange things around you" section as writing material, you go to do that. ”
After Editor-in-Chief Cao finished speaking, he turned around and left, without even explaining where the strange things around him were, and other colleagues also showed indifference to me because of some of Editor-in-Chief Cao's words.
I let out a long sigh, feeling uncomfortable, feeling that I was particularly unwelcome here, and that I couldn't even find my place, and I didn't expect the beginning of my second career to be so embarrassing.
I'm controlling my irritability, I'm not a hypocritical person, otherwise I would have told Zhou Xuran about the treatment I suffered as soon as possible, since it was arranged by the head office, why did he embarrass me, this society relies on the background relationship of the airborne troops. But I also know that this editor-in-chief Cao may also be a relatively upright person, this magazine has been so prosperous since it was suspended, and their efforts can be imagined, from the first time I came here, I saw that the colleagues around me were very busy, and put myself in my shoes, I am not used to living by background and relationships, and I have no direct or intimate relationship with Zhou Xuran, at best, it is a ghost friend, he arranged work for me, and he took care of me very much. I feel that there are two paths in front of me, one is to tell Zhou Xuran my dissatisfaction very indignantly and leave here, and the other is to work hard to prove myself. I am a self-respecting person, so I decided to choose the second option.
When I came back to my senses, I saw a man in his forties standing next to me looking at me: "It should be Xiao Yang, what did you think just now so distracted, Editor-in-Chief Cao is like that, just get used to it, you can eat here with your ability, as long as you work hard, he won't embarrass you, in fact, others are good, but his temper and personality are a little anxious." My surname is Liu, it's good if you call me Brother Liu, I'm in charge of the weird things around me, I'll take you to our group. ”
