Chapter 2: Strange smell
Chapter 2: Strange Smell
In fact, in the back, I have more of an idea of not steaming steamed buns to fight for breath, if I can make a name for myself by solving Brother Yang's problem, it will naturally be better.
At the same time, I am more interested in the old book than whether Brother Yang has met a ghost, and I am more interested in listening to something, at least I can be sure that it is not a Xibei goods like "Rulai Shenzhang" sold by a liar.
You must know that most of the magic and secret methods will not be easily passed on under normal circumstances, not to mention that there are still books that record many magic techniques.
It can be said that the situation of Brother Yang exchanging a dollar for old books is not an exaggeration to use the metaphor of picking up treasures. If it is placed in a novel, he is the protagonist with adventures, and the aura is very obvious.
But then again, Brother Yang is also a talent, not to the detriment of him, except for the scumbag attributes, he may really be a rare genius.
In the line of work I am doing now, there are many sects, not thousands, but hundreds, not to mention the famous major sects, even those small sects are also as many as cattle.
Different sects have different things to cultivate, just like Taoist cultivation, and at the same time can be divided into different sects. After all, the Tao is the way, the very way; The name is famous, and the name is not very famous. Everyone's understanding of the Tao is different, and the Tao of cultivation is naturally different.
Because of the different sects, there are also differences in cultivation methods, so even if you are talented, as long as you don't have the guidance of a famous teacher, you may be difficult to get started for the rest of your life.
Qimen Dunjia is famous enough, this book is also sold on the Internet, it's hard to say whether it's true or not, anyway, the people who can understand it are almost negligible, and even fewer people dare to follow the content written in the book, which is definitely rare.
Brother Yang is just an ordinary person, he has never been exposed to this kind of thing before, he just draws a scoop according to the things written in the books bought on the stall, and he can really successfully recruit peach blossoms, if this is not a genius, then he can only lie.
"Tell me about your 'ghost encounter'." I let out a long sigh of relief and cleared my mind of the mess.
This time let him say it, but Brother Yang didn't speak directly, he was silent for a moment, and his face unconsciously showed a painful expression: "That was after my last breakup......"
As the saying goes, there is a way to make a man grow quickly, and that is to let him go through countless women.
This is quite applicable to Brother Yang, after entanglement with several women, his emotional intelligence has improved rapidly, and it is estimated that even if he doesn't have to recruit peach blossoms, he may be able to flirt with strange women now.
But that's how he actually overturned the car during a recent confession, and the young lady not only refused on the spot, but also had two big mouths by the way.
The young lady didn't use much force, and it didn't hurt very much to hit her face, but Brother Yang felt uncomfortable and very uncomfortable.
At that moment, Brother Yang had a kind of panic that someone was exposed, he had always relied on the method of recruiting peach blossoms, and he had never been rejected by other women, so that he almost forgot that he was just a 'dick'.
Brother Yang didn't know how he escaped home that day, and being rejected made him angry and afraid, but after calming down, he began to look for the reason.
At first, Brother Yang thought that the method of recruiting peach blossoms had passed the expiration date, and he had to do it again, but he couldn't remember the specific operation, so he wanted to find the old book for reference.
This problem came, and the family turned upside down, and there was no shadow of the book, as if the world had evaporated.
The books that were well placed were gone for no reason! If Brother Yang wants to say that he is not in a hurry, he must be a lie, not to mention that it is still a strange book about his 'second half of his life'.
No other valuable items at home were lost, so it was unlikely that he was robbed, although Brother Yang was anxious, he also had a plan in his heart, and he ran to the place where he met the old man selling books early the next day, and the purpose was self-evident.
Early in the morning, there were not many people on the road, and there was no shadow of an old man selling books.
Later, I asked the owner of the shop next to me, and they said that the old man only had a few books, and he had not been here since they were sold out that day. Brother Yang didn't give up, and squatted for several days without results, before he confessed in annoyance.
Without the old books, he naturally can't use the method of recruiting peach blossoms, and Brother Yang has to continue to live a single life.
If you are single, you are single, Brother Yang is not the kind of person who is persistent, and later I also figured out that I get what I pay for, and I was only willing to spend one yuan at the beginning, so I can only use it once, and the transaction is very fair.
But since then, Brother Yang found that there was something wrong with his body, and he would have the same dream almost every night.
He often slept until he woke up in the middle of the night, and over time, his spirit became worse and worse, and he even went to work during the day in a trance.
"What dream? Nightmare? "I think Brother Yang is a little too sensitive, just dreaming that he has met a ghost, where is the ghost so idle.
"It's not a nightmare." Brother Yang paused, and then continued: "It's a spring dream. ”
Grass mud horse! I feel insulted, and I'm not happy to be a spring dream, so I have to do it with a real knife? Just for this little thing, I delayed Lao Tzu's time for half a day.
may have noticed my emotional changes, Brother Yang hurriedly explained: "It's not really a spring dream, it's the kind you know, it suddenly turns into a nightmare halfway through......"
"A spring dream turns into a nightmare?" To be honest, I haven't heard of this situation yet, and I can't find an entry point at all.
Brother Yang nodded helplessly, saying that because of the influence of that dream, he basically didn't dare to sleep all night now, for fear that the female ghost would kill him in the dream.
"Why did that female ghost kill you?" My tone was neither salty nor light, thinking that it would be best if a scumbag like him died, so as not to harm those simple female friends again.
Brother Yang thought about it, shook his head and said that he didn't know, and even the situation in the dream, he could only remember a rough idea.
I was angry on the spot, and my face was gloomy: "Brother Yang, if you can't trust me, you can go to other masters, don't waste time with me, it's good for you and me." ”
Brother Yang didn't know why I suddenly became angry, and was obviously stunned for a moment, and then asked with a puzzled and wronged expression: "Master, what are you doing, I didn't say I couldn't believe you!" ”
"Since you believe me, tell me the truth, and don't bluff me with nonsense." The female ghost in the dream that Brother Yang said is too mysterious, and it is the same as a ghost story, but he can deceive others, but he can't deceive me.
As mentioned earlier, judging from the physiognomy, Brother Yang may indeed have a problem, but it will not be a ghost.
Hope is the basic skill of our industry, even if there is no yin and yang eyes, judging whether a person is a ghost or not, it is much easier than imagined, only this point I am still very confident.
Brother Yang was about to cry and said, "Master, I really didn't lie to you, what I said was the truth." In the end, I was afraid that I wouldn't believe it, so I simply swore a poisonous oath: "If I have a lie, I won't die well." ”
"Okay, I'm unlucky to meet you, you leave an address and phone number, and I'll go to your house after dark." After speaking, I felt the need to take a preventive shot, so I added: "Brother Yang, I will do my best in this matter, it is not fair, it is not worth anything, you should ask Gao Ming as soon as possible; Settled, the price is ......"
Without waiting for me to finish, Brother Yang made a price himself: "Is 20,000 yuan enough?" ”
I was surprised, I didn't expect him to be so rich, originally
Is it true that poverty limits imagination?
"Enough is enough." Although I am not greedy for money, there is no reason to lower the price for myself, and it is not very good to spread out.
"Master, then we can talk about it, you must come in the evening." Brother Yang felt that he was not at ease just leaving his address and phone number, and asked for my phone number.
After sending Brother Yang away, I looked at my phone, it was only less than three o'clock in the afternoon, it was still very early, almost at the peak of the day, and I was going to set up a stall for a while.
Go to Brother Yang's house at this point, let alone find ghosts, it is estimated that the yin qi will not be visible. And by the evening, a lot of questions will pop up on their own.
However, the key is that because it is inconvenient to come out to set up a stall, I have a lot of magic weapons at home and I don't bring them, and I don't go home to pick up something and hold it in my hand, and I always feel panicked.
I was wondering if the peachwood sword I bought from a certain treasure was reliable, but a pungent aroma attracted my attention, and I don't know when, a beautiful woman was already standing in front of my stall.
"Do you know how to read palmistry?" The beauty spoke first.
It's really a beauty, but there are some fine lines at the corners of her eyes, and her age is estimated to be 30 years old, and she is generally well maintained. The height is about 1.7 meters, a standard big wave, needless to say, there is a special mature femininity.
"Yes! Definitely, I wouldn't dare to put up that sign? I pointed to the small stool in front of the stall and motioned for the beautiful woman to speak.
The beauty's tone was lukewarm, and she didn't shirk, but she looked a bit like she came to smash the field: "You don't look like a fortune teller." ”
"What does that look like?" I replied as I motioned for her to stretch out her hand: "Male left, female right." ”
"Liar!" The beautiful woman spoke very straight, but she handed her right hand over anyway.
I didn't talk after holding the beauty's right hand, pretending to observe her palm prints carefully, but in fact, I was thinking about how to bluff her words.
I don't hide about this, except for the magic of catching ghosts, I don't know anything about physiognomy and word measurement, and I write it on the signboard just to pretend to be almighty.
But take 10,000 steps back, fortune-telling is a matter of leaking the heavens, who dares to really show real skills for a few money, and the atmosphere in the industry is also to fool customers to be happy, so I shouldn't be a lie.
"What do you call it?" I've made up a set of rhetoric in my head, and it's up to me to see if she gets into the urn.
The beautiful woman stared at me with some confusion in her eyes: "Su Yan." ”
"Ms. Su, you don't have a good relationship with your husband." I deliberately pretended, but in fact, the panicked group was completely gambling on luck.
Su Yan was a little surprised: "How do you know?" ”
I smiled proudly, and I knew that she was married by looking at the ring on her hand, and that the woman's fortune telling was nothing more than asking about marriage.
I didn't talk to me, I knew I was right. Then now is the time to pretend, the more silent you are, the more people think you are unfathomable.
Then it's a matter of waiting, and when the customer can't help but talk about himself, he can move on to the next topic.
"Master Chen, I'm sorry, I was joking just now, you are not a liar, you are a true immortal. As you said, my husband often comes home in the middle of the night lately, and I suspect that he is raising a mistress outside. For this reason, the two of us quarreled and were about to divorce. "I don't need to guide her, Su Yan herself told her family's situation.
I didn't have to think about the rest of the things, I went directly to the script, first told her not to worry, and then drew two talismans for her, even if I sent her away.
Fu is an ordinary house charm, I dare not guarantee whether it is useful for her husband and wife relationship, at least I got the money, and the customer also ended up with psychological comfort.
With Brother Yang, I received a total of two customers that day, and I was very satisfied, which was a big improvement.
I looked up at the sun that was gradually sinking in the west, and decided to close the stall and go home, and I had to buy some incense, candles, and paper money by the way, which might be used at Brother Yang's house later.
But these are not the most important things, and I am also a mortal, and I still can't escape from eating, drinking, and Lazar. I was having dinner at home, my mobile phone rang, the caller ID was an unfamiliar number, and as soon as I got through, Brother Yang urged me to hurry over.
When I hung up the phone, I didn't bother to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, so I hurriedly went out with my broken satchel on my back.
The bag was filled with a class of magic weapons such as the Bagua Mirror, and only a peachwood sword was too long to fit in the bag, so I carried it on my back.
Maybe my dress was too fashionable, and I didn't dare to stop several taxis in a row, and finally I finally got a car, and the driver asked me if I was cosplaying, of course I ignored him coldly.
And because Brother Yang lives in an old community on the outskirts of the city, the location is a little off, and the distance from the main city is not too far or close, and by the time I passed, it was almost already dark.
According to the address left by Brother Yang, I easily found the door of his house, and as soon as I knocked on the door, Brother Yang pushed the door open, and an indescribable smell came out.
It is almost exactly the same as the taste on Brother Yang's body, or it is just more intense and easier for people to distinguish.
It's like the smell of a corpse rotting, but it's not right, there is another faint fragrance in it, and the combination of the two forms this strange and unique smell.
