Chapter 2 To Treat or Not to Care
The tiger head bell hanging on the backpack is the magic weapon soul control bell given to her by Jiang Hao, as the name suggests, it can control ghosts. It can also conjure spirits and sense foreign objects.
The peculiarity of this bell is that it is usually a dumbbell, which ordinary people can't shake, and only people in the Xuanmen can use it. However, when encountering a foreign object, it will make a sound on its own as a warning. Jiang Hao knew that the baby apprentice was going out to break into the rivers and lakes, and he put a talisman magic weapon or something on the apprentice; The life-saving formula was poured into Lu Jia's brain, for fear that the only personal disciple would have an accident.
Lu Jia heard the bell ringing, and knew that something must be wrong.
By this time it was getting dark, and she slowly turned to look at the aunt.
The aunt pleaded, "Girl, I know you can help me." I have asked a lot of people, and others are Fu and paper tieers; You're the only one who says you can't do it. You can tell at a glance that my daughter is gone at the age of 23, and this work must be managed. ”
Lu Jia looked at her aunt and didn't speak.
To be exact, she is not looking at her aunt, but behind her aunt.
The bell rang because a young woman who looked like a college student appeared behind her aunt. The woman looked at Lu Jia coldly and didn't say a word.
"Your daughter is a little taller than me, with long hair and a melon seed face, and she is 23 years old. At the time of the accident, she was wearing a white dress. Lu Jia said softly.
"Yes!! You're talking about my daughter! Auntie's face turned pale, and she stood up all of a sudden, unable to sit still.
"Your daughter died by suicide. I was with some friends of the opposite sex when I had an accident. ”
"That's right! Girl, you're God! How can you tell? You'll be able to help me find my daughter, won't you? The aunt grabbed Lu Jia's arm and asked eagerly.
"Seven murderers, how easy it is to commit suicide. And the reason for this suicide ......"
Lu Jia looked at the woman behind her aunt and did not continue to talk about the reason for the woman's suicide. As for the reason, of course, it has something to do with the robbery she said yesterday - caused by friends of the opposite sex. In other words, the woman was most likely forced to commit suicide by the boy.
Another meaning is that this girl is likely to have died unjustly. But Lu Jia was more worried about Qiqi, and he didn't have so much heart to redress the grievances of others, let alone make extraneous troubles at this time.
The woman stopped when she heard Lu Jia say this, her indifferent eyes suddenly widened, and she stared at Lu Jia.
Lu Jia thought for a while and said, "Auntie, I really have more than enough heart to do this. ”
For a mother, the child is everything to her. After losing her daughter, she was extremely devastated, and wanted to die several times, but at this moment, seeing a fairy-like person had ignited a glimmer of hope for her, Lu Jia's refusal again not only made her mood fall to the bottom.
The aunt grabbed Lu Jia's hand and slowly drooped down, and it took a long time before she said, "Girl, then I won't trouble you." If I hadn't figured out how Zi'er died, I would have gone to the underworld to take care of Zi'er. ”
Lu Jia looked at the back of her aunt who was slowly leaving with heavy steps, bit her lip and hesitated for a while, and called out to the aunt.
"Auntie, a person who commits suicide cannot be reincarnated. Now it's dark and I'm off work. I'll leave you a phone number and call me if you need my help tomorrow. ”
Lu Jia took out a note from her bag and quickly wrote down a string of numbers, then tore it off and stuffed it into her aunt's hand. Then pack up the hexagram stall and fly away.
The aunt clenched the piece of paper with trembling hands, and muttered, "Zi'er, I'll be able to see you soon." ”
After Lu Jia went back, Jiang Hao had already prepared dinner.
Jiang Hao saw Lu Jia's listless appearance, and knew that this girl's business was not going well today. So while serving rice to Lu Jia, he enlightened Lu Jia.
"Girl, do what we do, it's easy to have five disadvantages and three shortcomings, you said that you don't want to draw, you have to go to the hexagram. Look at the master now that he is a single person, and the master and I occupy the word "lonely". You're my adopted daughter, why don't you call me Daddy? Because the master is a lone star. ”
"What are the five disadvantages and three shortcomings?" Lu Jia held her chin in one hand, and the chopsticks in the other hand held the vegetables, and the potato was sandwiched back and forth into mashed potatoes, but she still didn't eat a bite.
"The five evils are: widowhood, loneliness, and disability; The three deficiencies are: the right to money and life. In short, the divination must be lacking, so it is called five disadvantages and three deficiencies. The master wants you to live a good life as an ordinary person. Why bother following my old path? Eh, girl, can you still eat the potatoes? ”
Jiang Hao has become more and more chattering in recent years, the uncle in his forties is not married yet, although he owes a lot of romantic debts, I really haven't heard of him having any long-term girlfriends.
However, Jiang Hao was rarely handsome when he was young, although he is now in his forties, he looks like he is in his thirties. The thing that hasn't changed is that he raises his eyebrows when he's still happy, and likes to touch his nose when he lies.
"Oh......" Lu Jia was still listlessly holding another piece of potato, obviously not taking this "five disadvantages and three shortcomings" to heart at all.
"Master, what does my mother look like?"
"Of course your mother...... I haven't seen it. Girl, why did you ask about your mother today? Jiang Hao almost blurted out and wanted to say: Of course your mother is very beautiful. But he told Lu Jia that he didn't know where this child came from, and where did he see someone's mother?
"They all said that I was a child of the Lu family, and you named me Lu, who am I?" Lu Jia put down the chopsticks, held his chin with both hands, and looked at Jiang Hao with blank eyes.
"Didn't I tell you a long time ago, there are more people with the surname Lu. What about you, I picked it up on the side of the road......" Jiang Hao's eyes glanced away when he spoke, and he unconsciously touched his nose.
"Alright, I was only that old when you picked me up. You've said it hundreds of times. ”
"What happened to the girl today? Tell the master about it. ”
"Today I met an aunt who died of her daughter. That aunt is so pitiful. Her daughter has been with her since she committed suicide, and they miss each other but can't speak. The aunt had been looking for her daughter, but she didn't know that she was behind her. ”
"I don't know if my mom is still alive, if she still remembers me, if she ever thought about me."
"Man's fate is predestined. No one can change it. Jiang Hao said.
"Master, that aunt is very pitiful, I want to help her see her daughter."
"Girl, that's not your business. Fortune-telling is already stealing the sky, don't meddle with it anymore. ”
"But master, that girl is likely to have died unjustly."
"Girl, there are some things that can be said, and some things that can't be said when you see them. Everyone has their own cause and effect, and those who encounter calamities are burdened by their own karmic debts. If you change someone's life, you will implicate other people, and you will also bear the karmic debt for them. ”
"But, master, don't you just look at those unfair things? The aunt said that she still did not know the true cause of her daughter's death. Just let the murderer go unpunished? Lu Jia was very angry, looking at the chopsticks on the table very unpleasantly, picked up the chopsticks and threw them on the table. I slandered in my heart: "My fucking life! ”
"The wings are stiff and tempered, aren't they? I also learned to drop things......" Lu Jia ignored what Jiang Hao said, returned to his room and closed the door.
