Chapter 562: An Invisible Signpost
When he said this, he seemed to be frightened, his arms were tightly embraced, and his body slowly shrunk into a ball.
I stood up and turned on all the lights in the private room, and the room became much brighter.
The store manager eased up a little, and then said to me, "That night, I didn't know how I got home, and my mind was confused all night. ”
I said, "Did anything else happen to you after that night?" ”
He took a deep breath and sat down in the brightest part of the room before plucking up the courage to say, "Since that night, every night and night, I can hear the old throttle sound, and the humming sound of the old engine when it is working." The sound was on the street outside my house, and once I went to the window to look at ......"
With that, he suddenly buried his face in his knees, rolled his arms his thighs, and said no more.
I felt a little distraction from his anger, so I walked over, took out the gossip money, and put the soft money face around his neck.
The yang energy on the gossip money can well stabilize the breath on his body, and when the anger is completely stabilized, he slowly raised his head and said, "I stood in front of the window, and I saw the car parked on the road, which was the old liberation. ”
After saying that, he turned around again, took my hand, and shouted anxiously: "You must save me, no matter how much money ......"
Before he could finish speaking, Wu Lin suddenly opened his mouth and asked, "If he refuses to save you, what will happen to you?" ”
This was a bit abrupt, and I didn't understand what Wu Lin wanted to do for a while.
The store manager raised his head and looked at Wu Lin in a daze, when he looked at Wu Lin, there seemed to be a little fear in his eyes.
At this time, Wu Lin said to him again: "You seem to have known your end." Let me ask you again, what will happen to you if things continue to develop? ”
The store manager's body weakened slightly, and he was silent for a moment before he said, "I will die, die in a car accident." ”
Wu Lin frowned slightly, and leaned on the back of the sofa with his hands folded.
And the young store manager spat out another sentence after a few seconds: "The previous store managers all died like this." ”
I frowned: "In other words, you are not the first person to help him prevent the disaster. ”
The other party naturally knew who I was referring to by "he", and immediately nodded: "That store has been open for six years, and a store manager dies a year, and now it's almost my turn." ”
I also clasped my hands and asked him, "This café is yours too?" Since you have your own business, why do you still work in a jewelry store? ”
His expression became a little embarrassed: "Last year, the business of the café was not good, and it was about to collapse, just at that time, the jewelry store opposite was recruiting a store manager, and the conditions were not much, as long as it was a healthy man, it didn't matter if he had experience or not, as long as he said in front of the guests that he was the owner of the store, as long as he became the store manager, I could get 30% of the store's annual profit, and I didn't need to put too much effort into it, so I ......"
I then asked him, "Who is the boss behind you?" ”
He shook his head: "It's always been his lawyer who has been in contact with me, I've never seen him before, and I don't know what his name is." ”
I said, "When did you know that you were helping others from disasters?" ”
"Soon after I entered the store, I overheard the conversation of the clerk and realized that several store managers had died before me. I also heard from them that the reason why the boss keeps recruiting store managers is to let these store managers help him prevent robbery, and the feng shui of the area where our store is located is very poor, and only by using this method can business become better. ”
This is half true, but although the feng shui of that shop is poor, it is not completely without remedies, relying on the living to prevent disasters for themselves, to be honest, it is not an ordinary lack of morality.
I asked him again, "Why don't you run away when you know things are not good?" ”
The other party sighed helplessly: "I can't run, that person has a lot of power in the local area, and he is still from the road, he treats me to death, I can't leave at all." ”
Li Huaishan opened his mouth and said: "Yo, there is still a black X society these days!" ”
I smiled, "Didn't you use to be." ”
"I'm not a black X society," Li Huaishan waved his hand and said, "I can only be regarded as a ruffian." ”
Ruffian hooligans? Well, this guy is still self-aware.
Wu Lin couldn't help but interrupt the two of us: "Let's think about business first." ”
I nodded and said to the store manager, "I will definitely take care of your business, tonight, you can go home in peace, no matter what sound you hear, and sleep steadily." ”
He first stood up and took a few steps towards the door of the private room, his hands on the doorknob, but then quickly stepped back, took out a very thick envelope from his pocket, and carefully placed it on the coffee table.
I raised my eyebrows and gave him an inquiring look, but he just smiled politely and didn't say anything.
Actually, I know what's in the envelope, but there are some things that I don't want to be too direct.
Li Huaishan didn't care about this, he immediately ran over and opened the envelope, and pointed the opening of the envelope towards me, I took a look, it was full of 100 yuan bills, roughly estimated, about 30,000 yuan.
I closed my eyes to the shopkeeper to take the money, and he smiled, waved at me, and was about to turn away, but when the man came to the door, he stopped again, glanced at me, and opened his mouth.
Without waiting for him to speak, I nodded at him again: "Put your heart in your stomach, you will be fine." ”
He obviously still couldn't fully calm down, but he didn't say anything after that, silently pulled the doorknob, and left alone.
Wu Lin raised his chin at the envelope on the table, and asked me lightly: "You made a move, and it was worth so much money?" ”
I said, "I didn't plan to take his money, but if I didn't take it, he would be at peace." ”
Wu Lin nodded silently.
I continued, "That guy just said a word that I really cared about. ”
Wu Lin looked at me sideways, and Li Huaishan asked directly, "What word?" ”
"Yin and Yang Dao," I lowered my body, put my elbows on my thighs, and said while thinking: "Yin and Yang Dao, to put it bluntly, is the road that straddles the underworld and the yang at the same time. Perhaps, the Zhiwan South Road in Hu Nanqian's mouth refers to the southern end of this Yin-Yang Road, that is, the entrance of the entire Yin-Yang Road. ”
Wu Lin clasped his hands and said, "Why do such words come out of the mouth of such a person?" ”
I said, "Maybe he just thought of the word out of nowhere, maybe he does know something strange about it, and it's impossible to say." ”
The person who spoke this time was Li Huaishan: "Listen to what you mean, the Yin and Yang Road is the intersection of the two worlds of Yin and Yang, right?" ”
I shook my head helplessly: "It's a pity, it's not. In fact, the Yin and Yang Road is not a road, it is just a medium connecting the two worlds of Yin and Yang, to put it bluntly, it is actually something in the Yang world. ”
Li Huaishan turned over his elbow, scratched his back twice, and muttered, "I don't understand." ”
At this moment, I saw a van parked in front of the café through the window, and the manager of the jewelry store quickly rushed out of the shop and got into the car.
Presumably, the relationship between the driver of the car and the store manager should be unusual, and after working in a jewelry store, he still accumulated a little network that only belongs to him.
Seeing the van go farther and farther on Zhiwan Road, I put down the coffee cup in my hand, greeted Li Huaishan and Wu Lin, and left the café.
The last time the store manager entered Yin Yang Road was at a quarter past one in the evening, so in order not to make a mistake, I also plan to go in at this time.
Out of the café, I asked Li Huaishan to go to the parking lot to pick up the car first, after the car was raised, he went around the nearby neighborhood for a long time, and it was best to draw a more detailed map for me afterwards, and Wu Lin and I searched carefully near the jewelry store, and finally found the small shop in the store manager's mouth.
The location of the shop is on the tuyere of several feng shui bureaus, which leads to chaos in the Qi field, but fortunately, the terrain in this place is neither high nor low, and it has avoided the most fierce limelight, even if there are no adjustments, the business should not be too bad, at least it will not go bankrupt.
The alley where the shop is located is actually a crescent-shaped detour, with both ends of the road facing Zhiwan Road, and the place where the road curves the most is the building where the jewelry store is located.
At eight o'clock, Wu Lin and I went around the path twice and found no problems.
At ten o'clock, Li Huaishan returned, and he spent a sketch of the structure of a nearby street, which was quite inferior due to drawing skills, but fortunately it was barely recognizable.
This picture will be of great use to me.
At 1:10 a.m., we came to the shop, bought a few boxes of cigarettes, and when we left the shop, the clerk on duty reminded us not to go to the right, but to turn around and go to the left.
I smiled, didn't say anything, and after leaving the shop, the car didn't turn around, and drove directly towards the east of the alley.
The speed of the car was not fast, the walls and garbage bins around the alley slowly moved towards the back, Wu Lin stared intently out the window, and as the car circled the building where the jewelry store was located, he patted me on the shoulder and pointed to the left side of the road.
In the real vision, there was nothing but a wall wrapped in black shadows, but in the field of vision of the quicksand of the Qi Sea, a vague outline appeared there, which looked like a sign built on the side of the road.
At this moment, the rich yin qi in the alley is enough to make people hallucinate, but I have telekinesis and netherworld treasure protection on my body, so I can't see those hallucinations, so I asked Wu Lin: "What is that?" ”
"A road sign," Wu Lin said lightly, "it says 'Liberation Road'......"
As he spoke, Wu Lin suddenly got stuck, and then he heard Li Huaishan say: ", the words on it have changed, and it has become 'Zhiwan South Road'." ”
