Chapter 499: Death
I complimented the remnant immortal and said, "The old immortal helps the world to save people, which is really immeasurable. I talked to your old man today, and I feel like I'm all covered in fairy energy. ”
The old fairy smiled and said, "The young man is young. The knowledge is not bad. To be honest, I've never talked to anyone for so long. ”
The two of us were talking, and suddenly the little Taoist boy came. He held a bowl of soup in his hand, soaked in a few red dates, and said respectfully, "Master, the medicine is here." ”
The remnant immortal said angrily: "There are guests here, what kind of medicine do you drink?" Retire. ”
Dao Tong shuddered with fright, but the bowl of soup did not spill at all. He hurriedly responded: "Yes, yes......" and quickly left with the bowl.
I wondered: "The old immortal is in the immortal class, do you still need to drink medicine?" ”
The remnant immortal looked at me with a smile and said, "The old man lost his temper for a while just now, which made you laugh." Hey, to be honest, it's in the immortal class. That was a long time ago. Now except for these eyes. I'm no different from ordinary people. When people are old and sick, they will inevitably have to drink medicine. I have been waiting for this medicine to be secretly drunk in the dead of night, and I dare not let you see it. I've been talking to you for a long time today, and I'm probably worried that I'm missing the hour, so I brought it over. I was angry just now, but I'm worried that after you know this, you will spread it to ten, ten to hundred. No one believes that I am an immortal anymore, and my door is cold and lonely, but I will never be able to refine the immortal body again. ”
I hurriedly said: "Old immortal, please rest assured, no one else will know about this matter except me." ”
The remnant immortal nodded. said: "I know that you are a reasonable person, so I am not too worried. ”
I said, "Since the old immortal wants to take medicine, then I won't delay you." ”
The remnant immortal nodded: "After I go back, I will take care of the aftermath." Don't be too sad. ”
I nodded: "Understood, thank you old fairy." ”
The remnant immortal shouted loudly: "Apprentice, send off the guests for me." ”
Just now, the Dao Tong walked out again and said, "This big brother." Please follow me. ”
Daotong sent me to the door all the way before closing the courtyard door.
I looked at the brand-new gossip above my head and then at my phone, and it was already the middle of the night. I didn't expect it to take so long to talk in it.
I was sighing when suddenly a hand was placed on my shoulder, and I shuddered with fear. I saw Xue Qian and Mr. Lu standing behind me with smiles on their faces.
Mr. Lu pointed to the entrance of the alley and said, "Let's go out and talk." ”
I nodded and followed the two of them outside.
Xue Qian smiled: "Old Zhao, it's almost midnight now." We thought you were going to sleep in the house of the remnant immortals? ”
I waved my hand and said, "No kidding. The remnant immortal gave me a piece of paper and said that this is the day I die, but I don't understand it, Mr. Lu, you can help me take a look. ”
Mr. Lu turned the piece of paper, looked at the hour on it, nodded, and said, "Well, not bad, not bad." ”
I asked curiously, "What's good?" ”
Mr. Lu said: "This person has some skills and extraordinary eyesight. Last night, I forged the identity of a short-lived ghost for you, and I drew the spell for an hour, and set the time of your death at twelve o'clock tomorrow night. ”
Then he pointed to the paper in his hand and said, "What is written on it is exactly the same." This person accurately predicted your lifespan. ”
I asked a little nervously, "Could he really be an immortal?" ”
Mr. Lu smiled: "Impossible. If it was really a fairy, he would have seen through my trick a long time ago, how could he be deceived? What did he tell you? ”
I said: "He said that he could help me change my luck, and in the next life, let me be the ruler." The price is that I want to be a cripple in the third life, lend him a leg, and let him refine into an immortal body, so that he can fly into an immortal. ”
Mr. Lu frowned and said, "There is still this way to become an immortal?" How come I haven't heard of it? ”
Xue Qian smiled: "Of course you haven't heard of it. The remnant immortal once stayed in the fairy world. This method is probably unique to the gods. ”
Mr. Lu smiled, and then said, "Did you ask about the obituary?" ”
I nodded and said, "Asked." "Then I told the remnant immortal what he had explained.
After Mr. Lu listened, he was speechless for a long time.
I asked cautiously, "Mr. Lu, is there any malice in his attempt to let me post an obituary?" Do I still want to log in? ”
Mr. Lu hesitated for a while, and suddenly showed a relaxed smile, he patted me on the shoulder, and said, "What obituary?" You're not really going to die. Let's find out his bottom, anoint the soles of his feet, and don't show up again, even if he doesn't appear again, who cares about him? ”
I nodded and said, "That's just as well." ”
Afterwards, I called Officer Shi and told him about the situation.
After hearing this, Officer Shi was silent for a while and said, "Brother Zhao, do you mean to say that the remnant immortal relies on his true skills and can really see the lifespan of a person?" ”
I hummed and said, "It's a real skill." ”
Officer Shi sighed and said, "I can't do it with real skills." With him here, the city is full of wind and rain, and people are panicked. Can we get rid of him? ”
I thought to myself, there are remnant immortals here, and there are constantly living people posting obituaries, which is indeed easy to make the common people afraid. So I asked, "What are you going to do to get him there?" Send the police to arrest? ”
Officer Shi said, "You can't let the police arrest you. People have not broken the law, and we cannot arrest people for nothing. What's more, he has a lot of believers, and if things get bigger, we may have to set off a big mess here. ”
I said, "So what are you going to do?" ”
Officer Shi pondered for a while and said, "Didn't he predict that you would die at midnight tomorrow night?" You are like this, let's show up in the daytime the day after tomorrow and smash his signboard. As long as his signboard here is broken, no one will trust him anymore, and when the time comes, he will have to leave if he doesn't leave. ”
I looked at Mr. Lu and said, "Isn't this too bad?" The remnant immortal was so angry when he knew it. ”
Mr. Lu pondered for a while and said, "Don't do it so desperately." So far, the remnant immortal has not harmed anyone. Moreover, he is also a person in our Daomen, and making it difficult for him for no reason is simply discrediting Master Zu. ”
Officer Shi obviously heard this on the other end of the phone, and he pleaded, "Mr. Lu, but the people have begun to notice the obituary now." There are rules for Taoism, and there are rules for the world. ”
Mr. Lu said: "In this way, I will write him an anonymous letter in the past two days, as a Taoist friend, to warn him. If he knows how to converge, let's get together and disperse, and if he insists on going his own way, I'll visit him again. ”
Officer Shi said gratefully, "Then I thank you so much." ”
The three of us finished the call and walked all the way out into the street. After a while, I saw it.
Mr. Lu yawned and said, "Tonight, let's go here, I'll go back and think about the wording and write a letter to the remnant immortal." ”
I instructed: "You write politely, in case he is really a god, maybe he can still carry you." ”
Mr. Lu smiled and said, "If one person attains the Tao, will the chicken and dog ascend to heaven?" Do you think that becoming an immortal and a Buddha is the same as the mundane things in the world? ”
We said goodbye to each other and parted at the intersection.
I lay on the broken bed and slept until dawn. Empty House: Wonderful
When I was sleeping in a daze, I suddenly heard a person crying out, "Master Zhao, Master Zhao......"
The voice was so sad and so heartfelt that I shuddered when I heard it. I sat up from the bed and asked, "Who?" ”
A man walked from outside. When he got closer, I realized that it was the owner of the tofu brain stall. He holds a bowl in one hand and a fritter in the other.
He put the bowl on the table and said, "This is the freshly made tofu brain." He pointed to the fritters again: "I just bought it for you." ”
I looked at him strangely, "What are you doing here?" ”
The boss sighed and said, "Master Zhao, I didn't expect that you were going to die at a young age." To be honest, I'm a little reluctant to have you. Although we don't have deep friendships, I know all of your deeds of chivalry and righteousness, saving the needy. ”
I was stunned and asked, "What are you talking about?" Who said I was going to die? ”
