It has been half a month since I returned to the courtyard in Beijing, and the whole Beijing is filled with a strong New Year's flavor, and it is almost the New Year, the streets and alleys are indispensable, and firecrackers are set off, and the word "Fu" is indispensable, and a red lantern is hung in front of every house, and even the stars on TV have changed into red sweaters.

The Taoist Association is basically on the right track, and Zhou Yi and Sol help Li Xun manage it together. The Xuanyuan family headquarters has already begun the year-end settlement, and many employees are going home for the New Year.

I sat in my office, the coffee on the table wafting white, a rare calm, although there were a lot of papers on the table. At this time, I glanced at Junko Muliang, who was looking at the snowy Beijing well outside in a daze.

I know that Japan also has the custom of New Year, but Muliang Junzi is in Beijing, and she has no relatives, so she can't go back and naturally stay in Beijing for the New Year, but after all, she responds to the old saying, every festival is more than homesick, think about it, she should be homesick.

I walked out of the office and knocked on the desk next to Junko Kiryo, she woke up from her stupor, turned to look at me, looked at me with some confusion and said, "What's wrong?" Chief. ”

I smiled and said, "Look at you in a daze, what's wrong?" What do you think? ”

Muliang Junzi shook his head, smiled at me reluctantly, and said, "It's nothing, I just feel a little tired, by the way, I still have a few documents to change here, I'll change the documents first!" ”

She hurriedly walked out and disappeared into the disturbing snow, I turned my head, but saw that the office was empty, I hadn't noticed before, the people in the office had already gone home for the New Year, Lovers, Black Egg and Yuhan, also began to represent the Xuanyuan family, went to the main branches in various places to condole, and it is estimated that they will return on the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve.

Muliang Junzi stayed in Beijing and was inevitably lonely.

The next morning, just after dawn, I didn't sleep well this night, I always have some strange dreams recently, especially after the battle of the Demon Cave, Luo Yan's back will always appear in my dreams, and I will always hear Xu Fo's last roar, I still remember that Xu Buddha said to Luo Yan at that time, how good it would be if he was still alive, so that they could rebel against the sky again.

Every time I woke up from my sleep, I would cover my face with my hands, looking very tired, and I knew that Xu Buddha was disappointed in me. In fact, I know that there is more than one person who thinks the same as Luo Yan, Xu Fo, the murderer, the uncle, the white bones, in fact, they all have such thoughts, if they can, they may all use me in exchange for Luo Yan.

It's the same today, I got up, walked into the bathroom, looked at myself in the mirror, my skin was a little too white, there were no muscles on my arms, my eyes were very dark, and I looked very tired.

Suddenly smiled and said to himself in the mirror: "Duanmusen, you still need to work hard, Master Luo Yan has desperately chosen you, you must come on." ”

Put on the clothes and walked out of the room to have breakfast, I happened to see Junko Muliang who had just gotten up, wearing a white V-neck sweater, plus a red skirt, a small velvet hat, dyed flaxen-colored hair, Junko Muliang after wearing heavy makeup, she still looked very cute, stretched her waist, drank a long breath of white air and said to me: "Boss, can you accompany me to a place today?" ”

I was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

I didn't expect that the place where Junko Muliang was going was Baiyun Temple, I thought that this Japanese chick who was fooling around in nightclubs and bars every day would pull me to some more crazy places, but I didn't expect it to be a Taoist temple.

Baiyun Temple, also known as Tianchangguan, Taiji Palace, enshrined is the Xuanyuan Emperor, that is, Lao Tzu, was built in the Tang Dynasty, very old, very quiet, there are not many people who come to Baiyun Temple in the past day, it may be because of the New Year, so after all, it is pure.

After we entered, Muliang Junzi burned a stick of incense, I stood at the door, looked at the statue of Lao Tzu enshrined in the Baiyun Temple, suddenly smiled and said: "I have been to Fang Zhushan, but unfortunately the sage is not there, I didn't have the opportunity to meet, it's a pity." ”

Muliang Junzi lowered his head and closed his eyes to make a wish, did not answer my words, after the incense, she pulled me to the nearby place to ask for a lot, I saw an old Taoist priest sitting at the place of asking for a lot, was drinking tea, after seeing us coming, he pushed out a sign holder next to him, this sign holder is very particular, different from the ordinary sign holder, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, there are some black bamboo sticks inside, there is no lettering on it.

The old Taoist priest looked at us and said, "Duanmu family master, I didn't expect you to come to our Baiyun Temple to ask for a lot." ”

I smiled and said, "Senior, I'm here with a friend." ”

Muliang Junzi has begun to shake the stick holder at this time, but I glanced at Muliang Junzi, when she shook the stick, she used a special technique, only the upper sign fell down in the stick, I laughed in my heart, this little Nizi is not full of food and has nothing to do? Obviously, I know how to divination, so I have to shake one and draw a lot, but the falling lottery surprised me.

The old Taoist priest took the bamboo skewer handed over by Muliang Junzi, stretched out his hand on the surface of the bamboo skewer, only to see a slight flash of golden light, and there were some small seal characters exposed on it, the old Taoist priest took a look at it, and said: "The girl may have a bloody disaster recently, it is better to be careful, this is a sign." ”

I was stunned, Muliang Junzi was also stunned, Muliang Junzi took the bamboo stick from the old Taoist priest in disbelief, and saw that although I didn't understand all the lettering on it, the content really said that the person who asked for the sign had a bloody disaster, which was really evil. Obviously, Muliang Junzi used a special technique when he shook it, and what fell out should be the sign, but now the result is the opposite.

Muliang Junzi does not believe in evil, even put the bamboo stick back, shake it again, this time, I clearly saw that there was a slight flow of spiritual light on her hand, this is in front of the old Taoist, did the hands and feet, the old Taoist priest is not angry, drinking tea, looking at the heavy snow falling outside, and said softly: "Girl, sometimes there must be in life, you can't avoid this disaster after all." ”

I only heard a "snap" sound, the new bamboo stick fell, Muliang Junzi did not wait for the old Taoist priest to take over, he took it, stretched out his hand, and the exact same text appeared on it, that is to say, the second time the lot, Muliang Junzi still shook out the next lot!

My face became solemn at this time, and I glanced at the old Taoist priest in front of me, with a white long beard, crane hair and a childish face, wearing an old-fashioned blue Taoist robe, and the whole person looked very energetic, but what made me strange was that I didn't see that he had a spiritual sense behind him, however, just now when he unsigned for the first time, it was clear that there was a golden light flashing on the tips of his fingers, what was going on? Am I dazzled?

I arched my hand and asked, "Dare to ask the seniors." ”

The old Taoist priest shook his head with a smile, but he didn't answer my words, but turned his head to look at Muliang Junzi and said, "You yourself are also a soothsayer of another faction, although you are not from my Huaxia, but you are also kind-hearted. Poor Dao still gives you some advice, you have three calamities in your life, the first calamity is related to demons when you are young. The second calamity, when you return home, is related to the ancient gods. The third calamity is right now, I said that you have a bloody calamity, it is already very clear, your third calamity should be a death calamity, the heavenly machine has already been revealed, you have been hit twice in a row, it is not my hands and feet, but your fate. If you don't believe me, you can go back and do divination. ”

Muliang Junzi was stunned, I was also shocked, at least what the old Taoist priest said was right, when Muliang Junzi was young, he met a drunken boy, and then fled to China. After returning to China, he encountered the difficulties of the ancient gods, the catastrophe of gods and demons, which can be said to be many disasters. But this third calamity, it's too strange, in Beijing, we have a group of masters, who can kill Muliang Junzi, it doesn't necessarily mean that a master like Xu Fo wants to embarrass a chick from Japan, right?

However, Muliang Junko's face was pale at this time, and he lowered his head and took my arm and said, "Boss, let's go, let's go back first." ”

I was stunned for a moment, and wanted to ask something, but Muliang Junzi didn't speak again, and when I walked out of the asking office, the old Taoist priest was still behind me and said: "If there is a place where you need help from the poor Dao, please come to Baiyun Temple again, Duanmu family master, the poor Dao also advises you, sometimes strength does not mean everything, you only cover the sky with one hand, but you can't cover the reincarnation of the heavenly way, so you can do it yourself." ”

After walking out of Baiyun Temple and getting in the car, we drove back to the courtyard. After entering the house, Muliang Junzi said that he was unwell, and went back to the room, but saw the murderer walking over quickly, holding a boxy express box in his hand, and opened it to see, there was a puppet villain inside, but this puppet villain was full of needles, and the puppet villain was wearing a kimono, and his face was covered with blood, which looked extremely terrifying.

"Who sent this?"

I asked with a frown, and I looked at the delivery slip, and the sender only had a strange name written on it, called: Debt Collector.

Then I called the courier company, but told me that it was international mail, and it was very troublesome to check, and when I heard about the international mail, I was shocked again, and asked, "You mean it was sent from abroad?" From which country? ”

The customer service of the courier company checked it and told me two words, which were also two words that surprised me: "Japan." ”
