Chapter 18 Against the Heavens
Lin Youde's harassment every once in a while made Mouran and others tired of it! He is like the sword of Damocles hanging over everyone's heads, with a sharp edge, which always makes people panic and uneasy, and has no ability to solve it. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 This not only makes them panic, but also often suffers from the eyes of the whole company.
Some people have long complained in secret, raising a group of goods who can only eat and drink, and none of them can come in handy at a critical time.
Now, because of Xia Mi's domineering performance, the security department has finally removed the colored glasses, and he can stand tall again. In the next three days, it can be said that the most relaxed moment for everyone in the security department during this period of time, the haze that shrouded their hearts was gone.
Mougin, Zhou Jianbin and others were overjoyed, and their attitude towards Xia Mi was also a 180-degree turn. is simply responsive, he is a newcomer who has just joined the company, and his status in the hearts of everyone is already close to Mougin.
In this regard, Xia Mi could only shake his head and smile bitterly, especially since Zhou Jianbin kept pestering him and said that he wanted to learn from a teacher, and he could only shirk it euphemistically.
After a few days of familiarity, Natsumi has a comprehensive understanding of the company and the journey home, and he doesn't like to ride in the car very much, on the one hand, because it is really crowded, and on the other hand, he likes to watch the joys and sorrows of the crowd on the street, which makes him feel very fulfilled.
Although this kind of life is very boring, it still makes him feel very relieved.
He walked silently in an underground passage, but suddenly stopped because of an inexplicable shout.
Xia Mi turned around and looked at the old man who spoke out inexplicably, looking around, it seemed that he was the only one at the moment, even though he didn't know why in his heart, he still asked suspiciously: "You called me?" ”
The old man was unkempt and his clothes were in tatters, squatting on the ground, picking at his blackened toes with one hand and placing them at will with the other. His cloudy eyes were fixed on Xia Mi, frowning from time to time.
In front of the old man, this yellowed white paper was placed, on which the contents of the Five Elements Bagua and the Book of Changes were written.
"Is this old man a fortune teller?" Natsumi secretly guessed.
"Of course, there's no one else here!" The old man said as a matter of course, and he waved his hand and motioned for Xia Mi to walk in front of him.
"How about I give you a hexagram?"
"I don't have any money!" Natsumi responded coldly.
"It's free..."
Xia Mi was suddenly wary, there seemed to be no free dinner in this world, and he began to think about various possibilities, which were undoubtedly bad results. Of course, the old man has the greatest chance of being a liar, and this is likely to be a trap.
As if seeing Xia Mi's doubts, the old man looked at him with disdain, "I'm an old man, what are you worried about?" Can I still eat you? ”
"Not interested!" Although the old man was right, Xia Mi still didn't dare to accept it easily, and he didn't really believe in such a thing as fate.
In his philosophy, man can often overcome the sky, and things are man-made.
"My old man has a very bad habit, every time you open, you must have a customer, and today you are the first and the last." The old man changed his tone in vain!
Xia Mi was finally able to understand why he was so poor, watching a guest every day, and in this era of science and technology, not to mention feudal superstition had long been lonely. With his image, who can easily believe that what he says is true?
"You have a treasure, but you don't know how to use it!"
Xia Mi turned around and left, not wanting to waste time at all, but unfortunately the old man's reopening made his light steps suddenly become extremely heavy. He turned his head with difficulty and looked at the old man nervously, "What do you mean?" ”
"Would you like me to show it now?" The old man smiled but did not answer, and asked rhetorically.
Xia Mi reluctantly stretched out his right hand and placed it in front of the old man. The old man smiled, but when his fingers touched Xia Mi's cold palm, his face turned pale instantly, he looked at Xia Mi in horror, and shouted, "How can this be?" Isn't that right? ”
"No... No, no... That's not right, this is going against the sky, you..."The old man's frightened face, as if he had seen something terrible, he looked at Natsumi's neck while looking at himself blankly.
Suddenly, he took out a dagger and made a cut in Natsumi's palm. The snow-white flesh was turned over, and there was still not a drop of blood flowing out, and the old man was suddenly cramped and uneasy, and even the dagger fell to the ground, which was still unknown.
"You go, hurry up, don't implicate me!" The corners of the old man's mouth trembled, looking at Xia Mi's eyes, as if he was looking at a monster, where is the attachment just now.
Xia Mi angrily withdrew his right hand and shouted: "You old man, you are very unreasonable, it is you who say that you are watching, and you are the one who says not to watch, but you say why you come." ”
Since waking up, Natsumi has tried many times alone, once cutting the skin, and again and again ushering in disappointment. His blood seemed to be coagulated, and his body temperature was far lower than that of ordinary people, only the jade beads on his neck, which emitted a faint light from time to time, made him feel a little warm.
The old man absentmindedly began to pack his bags, still chanting words in his mouth, extremely fast, completely ignoring Xia Mi's accusations!
"What do you mean, what's wrong, what's going against the sky?" Thinking of the strange things that happened to him, Xia Mi's words to the old man have changed from being indifferent at the beginning to being urgent at this time.
It's hard to meet a person who may know some inside story, how can he let it go so easily, seeing that the old man is about to leave. Xia Mi stretched out his hand and wanted to clasp the old man's shoulder, wanting to stop it, but where would he have thought that this old man, who seemed to be weak, had a slippery body, and a short body directly dodged the past.
"You..." Xia Mi was shocked and angry, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he stepped out again, trying to pull the old man's clothes, but he was still a step too slow.
The old man's rickety body burst out at a speed that was not slower than Xia Mi's, and even when Xia Mi was lightly attacked, he easily broke free, until he chased for a while, and could only watch the old man's figure disappear into the night.
The old man's departure made Xia Mi uneasy, and his words lingered in his ears for a long time. When he returned home in despair, even Xia Qing talked to him, but he was always in a state of loss.
This night, he was destined to not be able to sleep peacefully, he thought that life could be spent in the ordinary, but something incomprehensible always happened.
He didn't know if the old man's appearance was deliberate, or because of other reasons, he didn't dare to be sure, because the old man's performance and expression from beginning to end were so real and not a little false.
So, what exactly are the old men afraid of? Why did Natsumi implicate him?
Countless questions and unknowns, the more Xia Mi thought about it, the more his head hurt, he wanted to give up and think, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't do it. His mind is already in turmoil, and it is no longer possible to calm down, and perhaps avoiding will not solve the problem after all.
He thought to himself.
