Chapter XXXVIII
The third master asked: "Who is Li Huaishan?" ”
I didn't say a word, I rushed out of the house, and I also stuffed half of the embroidered steamed bun in my hand into my mouth, got up and chased after it.
The two of us ran wildly with all our might, and we got out of the yard as soon as we slipped through the smoke, and the third master didn't chase after them.
After leaving the path made of stones, he shouted at me: "You don't have a brain, how can you forget a big living person!" ”
I replied to him: "You haven't forgotten yourself!" ”
Yu Liyan: "I was scared by the little demon king, and you weren't nervous at the time, why did you forget about Li Huaishan?" ”
I said, "Why don't I be nervous, if I bring a large group of practitioners, if they come around and get me, I can't resist it." ”
Yu Liyan rolled his eyes and said nothing.
During this time, I ran ten kilometers every day, and my physical fitness has reached the peak under the destruction of the second master, and I can't do it, he ran very fast at first, but it didn't take long to keep up with my speed, and now he can only follow my footsteps with his head tight, and then speak, it is estimated that he will be angry.
I didn't care about him, and rushed out of the ghost skewer along the way I came, and came to the river as fast as I could.
The river is straight, and there are no other obstacles in the river except dirt and dirt, and the sight is particularly transparent.
But when I looked into the river, I found that Li Huaishan was gone!
He ran behind me, glanced into the river, and exclaimed, "Why are there no people! ”
I said, "It can't be that he woke up and left on his own, right?" ”
Yu Liyan: "You say, which direction will he go?" ”
I shook my head, indicating that I couldn't tell.
Qi Liyan scratched his ear in annoyance, and shouted again: "He won't go directly to the other side of the road, oops, it's over!" ”
I said, "Wouldn't it be better if he went on his own?" Anyway, we didn't send him out, even if the people of the family saw him, it had nothing to do with you. ”
Yu Liyan looked anxious: "Why doesn't it have anything to do with me?" If the people of the fifth master see him, they will find me sooner or later. It's over, it's over, it's really over. ”
I looked back at the oni skewers, "Maybe he didn't go to the other side of the road." It's also possible that you went to a garage or a ghost skewer. ”
Yu Liyan: "Ghost skewers? ”
I said, "It's the old alley of the family, and everyone in the neighborhood calls it that." Fourteenth uncle, you say, if Li Huaishan goes to the car repair shop, will he run into the little devil king's gang? ”
"Who knows," said Yu Liyan, pacing back and forth, with a bitter and sad face, "Anyway, no matter where he goes, we're both finished this time." ”
I said: "What do you mean that we are both finished, you used the spell in front of Li Huaishan, and if you want to finish, you will be finished, and you will be finished, and you have something to do with me?" ”
Yu Liyan glared: "If you don't fight with others outside, can Li Huaishan come to seek revenge, if he doesn't come to seek revenge, can I cast a spell in front of him?" It's not all caused by you! ”
I spread my hands: "But I was fighting with someone outside, and it was before I entered the house." Besides, Li Huaishan came to seek revenge, and I didn't let him come. ”
"You're stupid," Yu Liyan poked his finger my forehead: "Let me tell you, no matter when you fought with someone, Li Huaishan came to her house to find you." In other words, this outsider is the one you brought in. But if you let the little devil know about it, you won't have good fruit to eat. ”
I waved his hand away: "You can speak, don't move your hands and feet." Actually, I can't figure it out, why are you so afraid of him, he's not so scary, I tore my face with him, and he didn't treat me well. ”
Yu Liyan sighed: "You can say this because you don't understand what you are like a person. Don't look at him who is only in his twenties this year, his mind is older than the old man in the family, he wants to get someone, he never comes out of the open, he is all playing yin, and he can't prevent it. ”
As he spoke, he paced back and forth in front of me, which made me feel irritated.
I grabbed him and said, "Don't walk around, make people upset." You say, what should I do now, how to solve Li Huaishan's matter? ”
"I can't think of a way," Qi Liyan still sighed: "Alas, I guess this matter can't be solved by the two of us alone, we have to let the third master come forward and help us suppress the limelight, as long as we can wait for the second master to come back, everything is easy to say." ”
He shouted for a long time, but the result still depended on the second master.
But anyway, Yu Liyan made me understand one thing, that is, if I want to eat well at the house, I must be tightly tied to the same boat with the second master.
After leaving the river, I and Yu Liyan returned to the third master's house, and he told the third master about Li Huaishan's situation, together with me and Li Huaishan's one-on-one confrontation, and his operation in front of Li Huaishan.
What I didn't expect was that although Qi Liyan had been complaining about me before, when he stated these things, he kept excusing me, saying that Li Huaishan's visit to the family to find me was completely an accident and had nothing to do with me.
And the final result was that Yu Liyan was scolded by the third master, and later held a large basin of water in the yard to punish him, and the third master did not let him enter the house until it was time to eat at noon.
As for me, the third master just said to me that in our industry, the relationship between the sects is complicated, and when I walk around outside in the future, no matter what kind of people I meet or what kind of things I encounter, I must try to maintain restraint, and I must not easily do anything with others.
I asked the third master, if someone else bullied me, should I still exercise restraint?
The third master only replied to me with four words: "If you can endure it, you can bear it." ”
Seriously, the third master's words made me a little unhappy, since I was a child, I have become accustomed to that kind of life of-for-tat, others punch me, I must give the other party a punch, others stumble on me, I will do everything possible to get justice for myself. According to what he said, even if someone kicks my nose in the face in the future, I still have to greet him with a smile?
I can't do this kind of thing, and I don't think it's just me, the second master doesn't look like the kind of person who swallows his anger.
But I also thought about these words in my heart, and I didn't say them on the surface.
After eating at noon, the third grandmother made a pot of Pu'er, and I, Yu Liyan, the third master, and the seventh master sat in the living room, drinking tea sullenly.
During this period, the third master looked up at the old wall clock on the east wall from time to time, and it was not until one o'clock in the afternoon that he breathed a sigh of relief and said to me and Yu Liyan: "It seems that Li Huaishan has returned to the alley again. ”
Yu Liyan nodded: "It seems to be." ”
I asked the third master, "How did you judge it?" ”
The third master said: "If Li Huaishan goes to the car repair shop, he will definitely be caught by the little demon king, he has seen you near the car repair shop, and when the time comes, he will definitely bring Li Huaishan to you." If that Li Huaishan gets on the road, he will definitely be discovered by the fifth person, and in this way, the fifth person will definitely notify his family that there are outsiders in the alley, so that everyone can be vigilant. But now, nothing happened, which means that neither the little devil nor the fifth child saw him, and he could only go back to the alley. ”
The seventh master also said to me: "It's a little past now, the little devil is going back to the pharmacy, and the fifth brother should also take his people to the vegetable market." No matter which of them touched Li Huaishan, they would make a fuss before one o'clock. ”
No wonder the third master has been looking at his watch just now, it turns out that this is the case.
The third master drank all the tea in the cup, turned his face and asked me, "What is the name of the old house of the Guan family in this neighborhood?" ”
I replied to him briefly: "Oni skewers." ”
The third master and the seventh master glanced at each other, and then the seventh master asked me again: "Why is it called a ghost skewer?" ”
I said, "I heard that around the turn of the millennium, someone had seen evil spirits in the hutongs, and this matter slowly spread, and the old hutong skewers became 'ghost skewers'." ”
The third master nodded, and asked me again without a clue: "Do you know, why did our old house be built near the river?" ”
I'm used to their endless conversations, and I don't think there's anything wrong with them, but I just respond, "Isn't it for the convenience of getting water?" ”
"Easy access to water?" The third master smiled: "That river dried up a hundred years ago, where did the water come from." ”
After saying this, the third master fell into a long silence, and Yu Liyan and the seventh master looked at the third master, both with a frowning expression.
I don't know how long it took, but the third master finally spoke, but he said something that made people scratch their heads: "If you want to become a master of magic within a month, there is only one way - break it and stand up." ”
The seventh master asked the third master tentatively: "Third brother, you don't want to ...... Send it to the ice room, right? ”
The third master didn't answer his question directly, but just turned his head and said to me, "Drink all the tea in the cup and come with me." ”
I immediately picked up the cup and drank all the tea, and the third master had already stood up and walked towards the study.
I followed the third master back to the study, and the third master closed the door, stood next to the door frame and said to me: "No matter which sect you are in, no matter what kind of inheritance these sects are, there are two conditions that must be met before the people of the sect can officially practice magic. The first is that the mind must be quiet enough, and the second is to be able to perceive the great qi of heaven and earth. ”
As he spoke, he pointed to a chair near his desk and motioned for me to sit down.
After I sat down, the third master began his chatter: "The people of our old family, because they were planted with evil qi when they were young, most of them are hotter than ordinary people, and it is even more difficult for us to meditate." If you want to quickly practice your state of mind anytime and anywhere, you must practice meditation exercises, and when you do this, you should take a breath, relax your whole body, and put the tip of your tongue against your upper stomach...... When I say, you do it. ”
As soon as he said this, I immediately lifted my breath, and gently shook my arms, legs and feet a few times to relax the muscles of my body, and finally pressed the tip of my tongue against the upper stomach.
