Chapter Thirty-Six: Searching for the Northwest of the Bones
Nanjing is an ancient city, with the reputation of "the ancient capital of the six dynasties" and "the capital of the ten dynasties", and the history has left countless happy or sad stories in the city, teaching future generations to savor them.
The wheels of time continue to move forward, high-rise buildings rise from the ground, and today, Nanjing is very different from the past.
Yan Yunkai sat on a bench in the square, looking at the unfamiliar buildings and roads around him, and exhaled tiredly.
After the Spring Festival, he stayed at home for two more days, and came to Nanjing with Zhao on the pretext of traveling, trying to find the bones that he had buried in the city in his previous life. However, they had been in Nanjing for three days, and they had no clue. The original burial place had already built a high-rise building, and Yan Yunkai sensed it with the help of Zhao Theft, but he didn't sense anything related to him.
"Drink it while it's hot." Zhao bought two cups of milk tea, stood in front of the bench, and brought a cup of hot drink in front of people.
Yan Yunkai thanked him, plugged in the straw, took a sip, and felt that his whole body was warm. He slurred his mouth with a straw in his mouth, "I always feel like I can't find a bone here." Could it be that after I was reincarnated, it wouldn't recognize me? ”
Zhao Thief sat next to him and shook his head slightly: "The soul remains the same, it is impossible not to feel it." ”
Yan Yunkai muttered: "Then it shouldn't be in Nanjing." ”
Maybe during the construction of the building, it was dug up and thrown away by workers, or it was picked up by some animal earlier.
I couldn't find what I was looking for in this city, so Yan Yunkai lost his interest in traveling, and took out his mobile phone to book a plane ticket back to Beijing. He chewed on the boba with a blank face, chatted about the flight information in every possible way, and clicked on Dianping after booking his plane ticket to find out what good restaurants were nearby.
After three days of non-stop shopping, there was a hint of fatigue between the corners of his eyes and eyebrows. The warm winter sun shone on him, and he leaned lazily on the back of his chair, his chin buried in a scarf, looking like a lazy cat basking in the sun.
Other than that, there wasn't much of a look of loss and frustration. I probably haven't felt the benefits of returning to the body for more than 20 years, and I'm used to my current body, so I'm not in a hurry at this time.
"In this life, it is enough to find the bones before you die. lest after drinking Meng Po soup after death, the next generation will not know what he has lost, and he will have to spend time thinking about it. Yan Yunkai said calmly.
Zhao Thief tilted his head slightly and said, "Usually cultivators try their best to stay in the human realm, or pursue Dao attainment and ascension, it's good for you." ”
Yan Yun laughed: "Birth, old age, sickness and death, life is normal. Just like a flower blooming or failing, this is also the law of nature. ”
"If you're dead, it's easy to stay." Zhao said.
After all, there are so many demons in the unit, can't you keep a ghost?
Yan Yunkai suddenly smiled ambiguously: "After walking across the Nai He Bridge, I forgot my previous life, which means that we are strangers in the next life, is it difficult to ...... Are you reluctant? ”
Zhao Thief looked at the smile in the corner of his eyes, and was silent.
Seeing that he didn't answer, Yan Yunkai glanced at him obliquely, and smiled even more proudly: "Brother Zhao, every time you don't speak, I will acquiesce to you, and this time too." ”
Yan Yunkai rarely smiled so openly, the smile was so bright that his eyebrows and eyes were brighter by two points, and Zhao Thief's heart throbbed, like a hole in the frozen lake was smashed out by a stone, cracking a few fragile ice lines, and the fish scrambled to poke their heads out.
He suddenly wanted to respond to Yan Yunkai's previous sentence: What if you cross the bridge, I just remember the past.
But he didn't say anything, but glanced at Yan Yunkai strangely, and said slowly: "Do you have any obsession with Nai He Bridge?" ”
Yan Yunkai said: "No, I still want to fly more." But let it be, there's nothing to force it to ask for. ”
Zhao Thief nodded: "Zhang Sengqian didn't understand this truth, so he ......."
"Eh, don't you really have a relationship with each other?" Yan Yun asked.
Zhao Piaoji frowned, pursed his lips, and looked at Yan Yunkai with some reproach: "Am I a masochist?" ”
He rarely had such a vivid expression, Yan Yunkai laughed, laughing straight into his arms: "No, no, of course not." My brother Zhao is brave and martial, only you have the share of abusing others......"
Zhao thief hurriedly protected him, lest he get carried away and fall to the ground. Zhao Jiaoji lowered his head, Yan Yunkai adjusted his posture, rested his head in his brother Zhao's arms, and tilted his head with a smile.
In this strange city, the square is full of people, and from time to time someone looks at the two of them curiously.
"Why are you so stupid, let others take advantage of you for nothing." Yan Yun drove cheaply and sold well.
Zhao looked at him indifferently.
Yan Yunkai continued: "You obviously know that I like you, just forget if you don't respond, and you don't know how to keep your distance, you are simply hanging me, natural scum." ”
Zhao Thief's brow furrowed again.
Yan Yunkai laughed casually and raised his hand: "Help me up, go to dinner, and go back to Beijing." ”
……
On the seventh day of the first lunar month, Yan Yunkai returned to Beijing and went to the unit.
During the Chinese New Year, he rarely asked about things in the unit, and the six groups of left-behind units on duty were the snake demon She Ting and the human race Bai Sheng, these two easily did not come to work, Bai Sheng worked as a lecturer in a university in Beijing, and he would only come back to see it during the holidays.
When Yan Yun drove out of the elevator to the second floor, Yu Ting was wrapping his snake tail around Bai Sheng's waist, tilting his head straight and changing a light bulb on the ceiling of the corridor.
"You're back." Seeing Yan Yun drive in, Yu Ting waved the bad light bulb unscrewed in his hand and said hello.
When Bai Sheng heard this, he subconsciously turned around to look at Yan Yunkai, and Yu Ting was made to lean back by his movements.
Yan Yunkai glanced at them and was speechless: "Isn't it okay to move a chair?" Do you have to do that? ”
Bai Sheng shrugged his shoulders and said, "Why did you come back so early?" What about new colleagues? We haven't seen it yet. ”
"It's not too early for the seventh day of the first month. The new colleague was pulled by Wang to go to the movies. Yan Yunkai replied casually, "I haven't encountered anything during this time, have you?" ”
"Nothing big. Two days ago, I caught a foreign monster who was soliciting prostitution, and I exchanged it with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the embassy, and the reports are all on your desk, so I have time to look at them. Bai Sheng said.
Yan Yunkai: "Okay, continue to repair your lamp." ”
He went back to his office, flipped through a few papers on his desk, and felt that he had done nothing wrong, so he casually put them in the cabinet.
After a while, he went out, and the two of them in the hallway had finished changing the light bulbs and went back to their respective offices. Yan Yunkai pressed the elevator to the upper floor and knocked on the door of Liu Zhenyan's office.
"Master, can you give me a hexagram." Yan Yunkai said sincerely.
Liu Zhenyan raised his chin, asked him to sit down, and glanced at him strangely: "Count marriage to find You You." ”
Yan Yunkai: "It's not a marriage, it's looking for things." ”
In fact, Buddhism rarely gives people fortune telling, they do not take the initiative to contaminate the cause and effect of the world, at most they give people interpretation and sign documents in the temple. But Liu Zhenyan, as a monk, has been stumbling and crawling in the world, rising all the way to get rich and getting rich, drinking wine and eating meat, and has violated all the precepts that should be committed, so he almost didn't marry a wife and have children, so naturally he didn't care about these small rules.
Liu Zhenyan: "What are you looking for?" ”
"Yangu, I lost it in my last life." Yan Yunkai said.
Liu Zhenyan was surprised and incredulous: "Do you have a bone?" Can this be lost? ”
Yan Yunkai explained what he saw through the spell of "Mirror Flower" in a few words, and finally spread his hands: "That's why I asked you to calculate it." ”
"Oh," Liu Zhenyan quickly calmed down and raised his hand, "Let the old man show you." ”
Liu Zhenyan put his hand on Yan Yun's open chest, injected his mana into his fingertips, probed, and wondered: "It seems that something is really missing, why didn't you find it before?" ”
"If you touched my chest before, I would sue you for sexual harassment in the workplace." Yan Yunkai said indifferently.
Liu Zhenyan rolled his eyes disdainfully, withdrew his hand, and confessed: "You better go down to find Xie Zhi, looking for something or something, he is more accurate than me." ”
If Liu Zhenyan is allowed to see the sign and solve the sign, even if there are any big hurdles in his life, then he can talk about the truth, but it is not good to find things. There are a lot of people in the unit who can tell hexagrams, but they all have their own strengths, such as You You's marriage is particularly accurate, Zhou Yi's fortune is particularly accurate, and Xie Zhi is the most powerful in fact, but this good guy is also Xie Beast, and his strength will naturally be greater than others.
Yan Yunkai: "Xie Zhi hasn't come yet, I can only ask you first." ”
Liu Zhen said: "In the new year, I think the scope of work of the six groups can be ...... bigger"
Yan Yunkai heard half of it, quickly and gracefully stood up, buttoned up his suit, and walked out: "I'd better go down and wait for Xie Zhi, goodbye." ”
Liu Zhenyan snorted.
Xie Zhi's office was unlocked, Yan Yunkai sent him a WeChat message, and then directly pushed the door in, sat on a chair and waited for him.
It was almost noon, Xie Zhicai wandered in, and casually threw a bunch of car keys and car purchase contracts in front of Yan Yunkai: "Congratulations to Team Leader Yan for bringing a new car." ”
"Yo, you really bought it." Yan Yunkai happily took the car keys.
"What's the matter with me?"
"Give me a hexagram, find something." Yan Yunkai said what he had said to Liu Zhenyan again.
Xie Zhi was also surprised, and said with a smile: "Immortal bones." ”
Yan Yunkai was very calm: "I can't fly in place if I get it back." ”
"But it can solve the problem of your poor physique." Xie Zhi decisively hit his chest, felt it, and found a compass to calculate for a long time.
Yan Yunkai: "You can figure it out, I'll ask You You to invite you to dinner." ”
Xie Zhi was more serious.
After a while, he raised his head and said, "It's a little far, in the northwest, in the area of northern Tibet." And it's a ...... location Odd. ”
"What's so strange?" Yan Yun asked.
"On the edge of the human world." Xie Zhi said.
Yan Yunkai frowned and nodded slowly: "I know." Thank you. ”
"If you really want to find it, contact Dawa Dunzhu, that piece of his territory." Xie Zhi said, "The car keys and the contract are taken away, and you need help finding me, good luck." ”
Yan Yunkai couldn't understand that there was a difference of 108,000 miles between Nanjing and northern Tibet, how could such a small piece of his own bone go to northern Tibet, and it was still on the edge of the human world?
He arranged his work, went to Liu Zhenyan for leave, and decided to find his bones.
Northern Tibet is too far away, and it will take a long time to come and go, and I don't know what twists and turns there will be. He asked Zhao to stay in Beijing, and if there was anything on the family's side, he packed his things alone and prepared to go.
Before leaving, Xiao Chu Yangming sent him a WeChat message: Open up, you haven't come to play with me in the past few days of the Chinese New Year, don't you love me anymore?
Yan Yunkai replied: I want to go on a long trip and come back to reunite.
Chu Yangming immediately called: "Where are you going?" I've been staring at my cultivation every day lately, and I'm too tired from cultivating! Where are you going, can you take me with you? Show me the world! ”
Yan Yunkai didn't care: "Tibet, if you want to go, hurry up and pack your things." ”
Chu Yangming was like a bird imprisoned in a cage during this time, he was miserable, and when he heard that he was going to Tibet, he didn't ask much, he just wanted to stay away from Beijing, so he hurriedly agreed.
Yan Yunkai packed his luggage, and Zhao drove him to Chu Yangming.
"Take care of the house, wait for me to come back." Yan Yunkai said.
Zhao Thief nodded, and when he got out of the car, he couldn't help but explain more: "If there are people or monsters who can't be cleaned up, call me." ”
Yan Yunkai smiled and turned his head and flew a flying kiss at him.
