Chapter Twenty-Three: Don't Dare to Let Go

"You let us spend the night in your place safely, and then we can talk about applying for a membership card." I looked at the fat Taoist priest and said.

"Are you doubting my skills?" The fat Taoist priest stopped, turned to look at me, and asked.

I didn't hide my worries, and nodded directly and admitted: "Yes, I have some doubts about your ability, so let's talk about it first, if you can't do it, return a lot of money to me." ”

When the fat Taoist priest heard my words, he raised his head and laughed:

"Hahahaha...... Ridiculous, ridiculous, you hairy boy, how dare you doubt me, the vice chairman of the Taoist Association?! I'll open your eyes tonight! ”

"We'll see." I nodded.

After that, the Taoist priest surnamed Liu was really busy in the house.

He first drew dozens of yellow rune papers with a brush dipped in ink, and then pasted the doors and windows of the whole room tightly. Then the formation began again, and a Taiji Bagua map was drawn with red cinnabar on the ground, and an altar was set up behind the Taiji Bagua map.

On the altar, incense is lit with candles.

Looking at the fat Taoist priest's familiar appearance, my original hanging heart has fallen somewhat, it seems that he is not all bragging, he still has real skills.

"Give it, take it one by one, and put it with you, but don't lose it." At this time, the fat Taoist priest who had finished his work walked up to me and Linglong and handed us a yellow rune paper respectively.

Linglong and I put the talisman paper with us, and the fat Taoist priest looked at me again and said, "It's not midnight yet, you two go out for a walk first, and then I want to set up a formation, and there can be no outsiders in the house." ”

"Okay." I said yes and walked out of the house with Linglong.

"Remember, don't go far, you'll have to be back before 10 p.m." The fat Taoist priest behind him reminded me.

"Don't worry, remember everything."

Walking into the street with Linglong, this time it was just the two of us, and this was the first time we pressed the road alone since we met.

"That'...... What, Linglong, when you first saw me, why did you call me Dao Master? What is this Lord of the Path? I broke the silence and asked Linglong as she looked at Linglong walking beside me.

"My dad, he didn't tell me the reason, he asked me to call you that, I called you, he asked me to ......" Linglong stopped abruptly in the middle of her words.

"He asked you to sign a marriage contract with me, and you signed it?" I asked for Linglong. I always believe that love and marriage contracts should be free and should be cultivated slowly, because it only belongs to the parties themselves, and should not be bound by the words of the matchmaker and the orders of the parents.

So until now, I didn't really regard my signing of the marriage contract as my daughter-in-law.

After hearing this, Linglong did not speak, but suddenly stopped, raised her head and looked at the stars in the sky, and said to me:

"Qin Sheng, there are as many stars in the sky as there are countless people, you said that among so many people, the two of us can meet each other and sign a marriage contract, is this a fate destined by God?"

I shrugged my shoulders and said:

"I'm afraid our 'fate' is destined by your father...... "I can't figure it out, why did that fortune teller old man want to let such a beautiful daughter marry me, a poor and white dick man?"

"Whether this fate is given by God or my father, it is also the fate between the two of us, isn't it?" Linglong said and turned to look at me, as if waiting for my answer.

"Sort of." I was silent for a moment, agreeing with what Linglong had just said.

Linglong smiled slightly after hearing this, and continued to walk towards the front of the road.

I have to admit that Linglong's smile is really charming, and I even began to covet her smile a little.

As we walked along the not very wide road, we came to a food stall selling oden, and Linglong stopped and pointed to the oden stall not far from the side of the road and asked:

"Qinsheng, I want to eat that, do you have any money with you?"

"Take it, I'll invite you to go."

"Okay, I'll invite you next time."

……

Just as Linglong and I ordered oden and just sat down to eat, we happened to see an elderly couple walking towards us holding hands.

The two of them seemed to be quite affectionate, and they walked to the common chair near the oden and sat down, never letting go of each other's hands the whole time.

"Holding the hand of the son, growing old with the son, so enviable." Linglong looked at the old couple and sighed softly, then she turned to me and asked:

"Qin Sheng, do you think we will be the same as them when we get old together?"

For a moment, I was a little dumbfounded by Linglong's sudden question, and I didn't know how to answer her. Looking at her innocent face, I began to feel a sense of self-blame and guilt in my heart.

Linglong, she seems to really take the marriage she signed with me seriously. And I took the marriage contract, which had no legal effect, as a joke......

"Why did you suddenly stop talking?" Linglong looked at me and asked puzzled.

"I didn't ...... It's nothing, I just thought again, didn't they have a time to quarrel? "I ask a question to distract from what Linglong just asked me.

The corners of Linglong's mouth turned up slightly, and said:

"Shall we go over and ask them soon?" As she spoke, she stood up and walked over to the old couple.

Seeing this, I had no choice but to follow.

Linglong walked up to the old couple and said to them with a smile:

"Hello uncle, auntie, can I ask you a question?"

"Girl, what do you want to ask?" The uncle looked at Linglong with a smile and said.

"Uncle, I want to ask you and your aunt have been in such a good relationship all your life? Wherever you go, you hold her hand and don't let go. Linglong asked.

Who knew that after the uncle heard Linglong's words, he said with a bitter face:

"Girl, look at this and ask, which pot is not opened, which pot is not opened, I dare not let go of her hand, she will give me Taobao right away, you say that you dare to let go of you?"

"What's wrong with me buying something? What's wrong? I've never seen anyone as stingy as you! The aunt on the side looked at the uncle with an unhappy face and complained.

The uncle was also unhappy at this time, and then said:

"I'm still stingy, you don't count how many things you buy in a day? The little brother who delivered the courier to us ran back and forth for a month, riding a broken battery car! And our downstairs Lao Wang, just by picking up the express packaging cartons you lose every day and selling them for money, all of them are driving BMWs, are you embarrassed to say that I am stingy? It just so happens that you two are here, and you give me a critique, whose reason is this?! ”

Linglong and I looked at each other, not knowing who to talk to......

Saying goodbye to the old couple, after eating oden, I didn't know that the time was almost up, so I didn't continue to linger, and rushed towards the fat Taoist priest's residence with Linglong.

When he returned to the fat priest's room, he had already arranged everything and was timidly half-lying on a wicker chair drinking tea.

When he saw me and Linglong coming back, his eyelids raised slightly, and he said confidently:

"Don't go out when you come back, Bendao will definitely keep you two safe tonight."

"And where do we sleep tonight?" I asked.

The fat Taoist priest snorted and said, "You can only sleep in this room tonight, and you can't go anywhere." At the same time, I suddenly heard a knock on the door outside.

After hearing the knock on the door, the fat Taoist priest probably thought that there was business again, so he hurriedly stood up from the rattan chair and ran over to open the door.

But the moment he opened the door of the house, he was stunned all of a sudden, whether it was it, along with me and Linglong, he was also startled, because at this time there was no one outside the door, and the road outside was a little scary except for the wind......

"Who? Who was knocking on the door just now? The fat Taoist priest walked out of the door and saw that there was no one, so he asked.

The only thing that answered him was the roaring wind in the night......

"Is it coming?" I couldn't help but get nervous, because I still hadn't figured out what was going to kill me tonight.

And whether it has anything to do with Cai Wei.
