Chapter 25 First encounter with Deng Zinuo
Half a month passed in a flash, and during this time, I learned Tai Chi with Master, and consolidated my practice of Dream Control and Cultivation and my newly realized techniques.
On the day we left, Mr. Li couldn't wait for people to go up the mountain to hand over, and it seemed that the original plan would continue to be implemented.
Brother Zhang was discharged from the hospital a week ago and returned to the villa, and the doctor said that he should stay in the hospital and return to a familiar environment to recuperate.
The group of three returned to their apartment in Central, and when Uncle Shi learned that we were back, he invited us to dinner again.
But this time it was not at his house, but at Huaxiang Restaurant. Dinner lasted until midnight, and finally Chen Miao drove everyone back to their residence.
After getting out of the car and coming downstairs to the apartment, he thought that he had run out of toothpaste, so he planned to go to the store next to him to buy another one, so Master and Brother Zhang went upstairs first.
I walked along the road to the supermarket, bought my toothpaste and walked back. Then I suddenly heard a shout from the alley opposite: "What are you doing? Yes! Don't! A woman spoke loudly in Mandarin.
When I heard the woman shouting, I wondered if she was in trouble. Then he walked quickly into the dim alley, and then there was a cry for help in front of him, which was already more desperate than just now.
Before I could think about it, I shouted, "Who's there?" And quickened his pace, and when he walked to the end, he saw four people, one of whom had been forced into a corner.
"Pretty boy, don't meddle!" One of them said.
"Save me!" The woman shouted.
"Shut up, no one who comes today can save you."
"Let her go." I secretly run less yin and control the vision.
"Oh? Do you want to be a hero to save beauty? Apo gave him some color and looked. The man named Apo staggered up and said, "Give you one more chance, and if you leave immediately, I'll let you go." He said in Cantonese.
"I'll also give you one more chance, and now let her go, I won't embarrass you."
"What do you say, kill him." The man in the lead said. Apo rushed up at the top of his voice, and his right hand punched me in the cheek, and I leaned slightly to the side, and kicked his right foot on his right leg, and he fell to the ground without even touching the corner of my clothes.
Although I have only been practicing Tai Chi for a short time, it is enough to deal with these hooligans in Shaoyin Vision.
As soon as Apo landed on the ground, he quickly got up, and then posed, his right hand clenched into a fist and his left hand clenched in front of his chest.
Seeing this, I also slid out of my right foot, and slowly stretched out my right palm facing upwards. At this point, I was about a meter and a half distance from him, and he took a big step forward, his right fist reaching forward straight into my chest.
But it all seemed to me to be very slow, and my right hand flipped under the cover, just in time to grasp the right hand that he had struck, and with a slight push to the left side, he dragged forward with his momentum, and his right foot slammed into his right leg, and he fell forward with his face on the ground.
"Damn, dig the guy out and go up together." The leader saw that Apo was not my opponent and spoke.
They pulled their knives out of their pockets and rushed up in a frenzy. But it was also in vain, and within a few rounds, they were all thrown to pieces.
Finally, he got up and took the lead and said, "You are good, I don't know your surname." ”
As soon as he said these two words, he realized that he was too proud, so he didn't continue.
"Good! You've got a kind! This chick has sent you. As he spoke, he turned around and left with his two younger brothers. I looked at the woman, who was crouching on the ground sobbing.
I stepped forward and whispered, "It's okay, you can go home." After saying that, I was about to leave, but she suddenly stood up and hugged me from behind, startled by this sudden hug.
At this time, her back felt the contour and softness of her body, but she knew in her heart that this was not the time. Breaking free of her hug and saying, "They're gone, it's okay, you can go home quickly." ”
"Where do you want me to go? I don't have a home. ”
"Then you can go where you used to live!" I wondered.
"You beat my boyfriend away, I can't go back." She looked up at me and said. A beautiful melon seed face appeared in front of my eyes, and her cheeks were still stained with tears.
Hearing her words, my heart was extremely depressed, and I asked suspiciously, "Huh? That person is your boyfriend? Were you guys joking? ”
"No... No. She said, bowing her head.
"So, what do you want?" I asked helplessly.
"Can I stay with you?" She asked rhetorically in a whisper.
"Huh? Not good. Go to the hotel by yourself! "If you come out to buy a toothpaste and bring back a woman, I don't know what Master and Brother Zhang will think.
"I don't have money to stay in a hotel, anyway... You're responsible anyway. I was speechless for a while, how kind I was to help.
Inexplicably a little angry in his heart, he said, "Want me to be responsible? Miss, I saved you. Otherwise, I'll go to the police and let the police deal with it. ”
"Ahh No... Don't call the police, can't I go? As he spoke, he hid his face and sobbed again, and walked out slowly.
I stood still, depressed, but seeing her thin back trembling in sobs, I couldn't bear it.
So he walked up quickly and said to her, "Well, I'll open a room for you to live in, and you can think about where you can go tonight." ”
"Hmmm! Thank you. ”
"Aren't you from Hong Kong?" I heard her speak Mandarin all the time, and her accent was not like Cantonese.
"No, I'm from Shonan."
"Then how did you come to Hong Kong alone?"
"I originally went to Guangdong to work, but then I met a boss in Hong Kong, and he said he could take me to Hong Kong to make money."
"Do you believe this kind of nonsense?"
"Originally, I didn't believe it, but he took me to meet a woman, she made money after coming to Hong Kong, and she was dressed up beautifully, and I was not the only one who wanted to come to Hong Kong, so just..."
"So how are you doing in Hong Kong?"
"After coming to Hong Kong, I learned that he asked us to drink with others, and said that if we wanted to go back to the mainland, we had to work for three years. By the time everyone realized that the problem was serious, it was already difficult to get out, because he gave a lot of money at the beginning, and there were still many people who were willing to continue to do it. ”
"Is it just drinking with someone? Are you going to go back? ”
"At first, it was just drinking with people, but then it stopped... Later, I met Brother Qiang, he was very good to me at first, and said that he would support me without having to work, and finally had a man to rely on, so I became his girlfriend. She whispered.
"And what's going on tonight?"
"Since last week, his demands have become more and more excessive, but I have endured them. But today, on the way back from the mall with him, Po and Ho-kun suddenly ran out and did something to me, and he didn't stop him......." She began to sob again.
Her crying upset me a little, and then she changed the subject and asked, "What's your name?" ”
"Deng Zinuo, do you think I'm so stupid?" I didn't answer her words, and seeing that there was already an inn in front of me, I went in, registered in her name, and paid to open a room.
She also came in after me, got the key, and went up to the third floor. He sent her to the room and said, "You can stay here for one night tonight, think about what you want to do in the future, this is three hundred yuan, you take it." She didn't take my money, but said quietly, "Will you stay with me?" I put the money on the table, looked at her beautiful face and said, "You and I are not all the way, if you really can't help it, go to the police, they will send you back to the mainland." ”
"They know the police here, and I can't leave."
"Then you won't go to Kowloon or even Sha Tin? Can they know the police in Hong Kong? "I'm a little angry, how can I get myself into these troubles.
She looked up at me, her eyes filled with tears, which slipped down in the blink of an eye and dripped onto the back of her hand.
When I saw her like this, my heart softened.
"Don't... Don't cry! If I can spare time tomorrow, I'll accompany you to the police station. ”
"Really? Don't lie to me. ”
"I mean..." Before I could finish, she stood up and hugged me again. Immediately, the whole person felt her body temperature and soft body, and his hands unconsciously hugged her, and those strange thoughts appeared in his mind again.
"Thank you!" She whispered in my ear. Hearing her words, I came back to my senses, let go of my hand and said, "It's not too early, I have to go back." You rest early, and I'll come to you tomorrow morning. She let go of her hand and sat back on the bed, wiping her tears with her hand.
I turned to leave, and she asked behind me, "What's your name?" ”
"The wind forest, the wind of the windmill, the forest of the woods. Go to bed early! I looked back.
"Hmmm! Good night! "When I left the hotel, the cold wind blew at night, and my brain was much clearer. I couldn't help muttering: "Wind forest! You can come across these things when you buy a toothpaste, you are really unlucky! But when I recalled her beautiful face, I couldn't help but ask myself, is it really unlucky?
After this toss, it was almost ten o'clock in the evening when I returned to the apartment. Brother Zhang and Master had already rested, and I tiptoed to finish washing, and then went to bed to meditate and rest.
I woke up the next morning, just after dawn. Thinking of Deng Zinuo, who was still waiting for me at the hotel, I couldn't help but worry, how to tell the master.
After washing, I met Master in the living room, and after waiting for Brother Zhang for a while, the three of them went downstairs to have breakfast together.
"Xiaofeng, do you have something on your mind?" When I came back from breakfast, I still didn't find a chance to speak, or maybe I didn't know how to speak, but Master saw my strange look and asked.
"Master, I... I have something to tell you. I recounted what happened last night, and Master listened, and finally I asked, "Master, what should I do?" ”
"Xiaofeng, it's a good thing to help when the road is uneven. But don't act indiscriminately for the sake of being a hero for a while. As for the woman, you can do it yourself! But since you promised others, don't break your promises. When I was still thinking about Master's words, Master continued, "I have thought a lot about this time, and your ability is not weak at present, I think you should be able to get out of the teacher." ”
"Master, don't be in such a hurry." I came back to my senses and said.
"Xiaofeng, I once said that you can decide for yourself what you want to do and what not to do when you leave the school. After what happened last time, it proves that you already have the ability to be independent. Master said solemnly.
"Master, I..."
"It's not that I don't recognize you as an apprentice, you are still my apprentice. It just so happened that this incident happened to you this time, so you should go outside and break in. However, you must memorize the precepts of your own door, think more about things, and don't act recklessly. Master advised.
"Remembered, Master." I said.
"Come, this is what Master has prepared for you." Master took out a red cloth bag from his bosom and opened it in front of me.
I saw that in the red cloth package was a round bronze mirror, the whole was only the size of a palm, but it was not a common shape.
In the Bagua diagram, Taiyin and Shaoyin are smooth mirrors, which can reflect human figures. The sun and the young sun are uneven and rough surfaces, like mountains towering, and the periphery of the four elephants is engraved clockwise from the top with Qian, Xun, Kan, Gen, Kun, Zhen, Li, and Dui.
The periphery of the eight characters is the corresponding hexagram symbol, and the side is surrounded by moire.
This side is the innate gossip, also known as the Fuxi gossip. The yang fish side is dry, dui, separate, and shock, and the yin fish side is Xun, Kan, Gen, and Kun. Look at the back of this realm. Master said and flipped over.
"This side is the acquired gossip, also known as the gossip of King Wen. Yang fish is dry, Zhen, Kan, Gen, Yin fish is Kun, Xun, Li, Dui. Master went on to say that the two sides seem to be the same, but the hexagram is in different positions.
"The innate gossip is based on Qian, Kun, Li, Dong, Kan, Dui, Xun, Xun, Zhen, and Gen. The day after tomorrow, the gossip is based on Li, Kan, Zhen, Dui, Xun, Xun, Kun, Kun, Gen, and Qian. The mirror should be held in the south and at the bottom. ”
"I asked my second brother to find this thing, in the past, the disciple went out of the teacher as a gift for the master, but your kid made too fast progress, so the teacher rushed a lot of time to get it." Master said.
"Master, how do you use this thing?" I picked it up and looked at it closely.
"Ritual weapons need to be cultivated by individuals to have spirituality, and as for what kind of effect they can have, it depends on your own."
"Thank you, Master." I wrapped it back in the red cloth.
"There are 100,000 in this card, which is your reward for this time, and the password is your birthday. Don't refuse, I know how much salary the journey has paid you, and now I don't go to work, and there will be a lot of places to use money in the future, and I have to save some money, and I will wait until the end of the year to see the situation. "Although I knew that Master would not treat me badly, I didn't expect to get such a large sum of money at one time.
100,000! Enough to buy many, many things. I took it gratefully and put it away carefully. It was almost nine o'clock when I went out after talking to the master, I wonder if Deng Zinuo was in a hurry?
As I walked, I thought that things could only be taken one step at a time, and when she was arranged, I would come back immediately.
By the time I got to the hotel, it was half past nine. I was about to go upstairs to my room to find her, but the cashier at the bar stopped me and asked, "Pretty boy, what's the matter with you?" I remember that it wasn't him at work last night, so I explained, "A friend of mine lives in room 307 and I'm here to find her." ”
"307! I looked, and she checked out. ”
"Ahh Did she check out? Did she go alone? I asked hurriedly.
"No, it seems that three people came to her, and they walked together." I secretly said in my heart that it was not good, could it be that Brother Qiang who came here again?
What to do? Do you want to continue to meddle in this matter? As I thought about it, I walked out, and as soon as I walked out of the gate, I heard someone chasing after me, shouting, "Sir, they left a note for you." ”
