Chapter 3: Young Taoist Priests
"Ah~~~!" With a shout, Li Mu woke up from his nightmare.
It was dark and silent outside, and a glance at my watch showed that it was 4 o'clock in the morning. Li Mu slapped his face with cold water, looked at himself in the mirror, and still had palpitations in his heart thinking about the dream he had just had.
In the dream, Li Mu drove his Fukang car on the way home, and when he passed an intersection, he skillfully turned left and drove into another road. But not long after he turned the corner, he saw a woman in white waving at him on the side of the road. The woman had long jet-black hair that was draped so that it covered her face. In addition, it was already dark, which made Li Mu unable to see the other party's face clearly.
In the spirit of helping others, Li Mu parked the car next to the woman, pressed the window of the passenger seat, turned his head and shouted out the window: "Do you need help?" ”
The woman is standing, so the woman has to lean down to talk to Li Mu.
"I want to go home!" The woman leaned over, leaned her head slightly into the window, and whispered to Li Mu.
When Li Mu saw the woman's face clearly from the car window, his scalp suddenly went numb, his whole face was even more frightened, the muscles of his whole body were tensed instantly, and his heart was even more like being pinched by someone's hand, making him breathless.
At this moment, it was not a face at all, but a skull of Bai Sensen. The skull flickered with cold air, and the upper two pitch-black eye sockets were like two bottomless black holes about to suck Li Mu and his soul together. This kind of terrifying picture of hair at first glance made Li Mu finally scream uncontrollably.
"Woo ......, it's good that it's a dream." Li Mu wiped away the cold sweat on his face with a towel, and secretly rejoiced. Then he made an indecent gesture to himself in the mirror, and secretly felt sorry for himself in his heart, how he was so wretched and woke up by a nightmare.
Hanging the towel on the wall, Li Mu turned around and planned to continue sleeping for a while. But as he left, he didn't notice that there was a dark shadow in the mirror.
Another meaningless weekend has passed, and the only change is that Li Mu feels that this weekend is particularly tired. I can't eat well, and I can't sleep well. Either way, you have to go to work on Monday. By the way, there is another thing that makes Li Mu feel that this weekend is unlucky. In addition to meeting my ex at the car wash, there was also a clean car that was finally washed and was scraped off. No, Li Mu, who sent the car for repairs, could only squeeze the subway to work again on Monday.
Li Mu's company is located in a relatively remote area of Shangdu, and it usually takes 40 minutes to drive, and if you encounter a traffic jam, you will never be able to get to the unit for an hour. If you want to take the subway, it will take longer, a full hour and a half. It's not that the subway is slow, it's because there are several transfers.
In order not to be late, Li Mu could only get up early. He didn't even have time to eat breakfast, so he hurried to the subway with two dark circles under his eyes.
Li Mu saw that there were not many people in the subway today, and secretly sighed that he finally didn't have to squeeze it, but he didn't expect that after only two stops, the space of the subway was fully used and reused. At this moment, Li Mu was being held on his waist by a shoulder bag in the back, and a backpack in front of him was facing him, which made him extremely uncomfortable. What's even more uncomfortable is that he has to work hard to tense his body so that he won't bump into a girl next to him who is wearing very little because of her "poor family background" while driving on the subway. Li Mu didn't want to be mistaken for a pervert on the morning of the New Year, although the girl's dress was indeed very tempting.
Just when Li Mu was suffering from the double injury of ** and his soul, the subway stopped again. There was another crowd surge, and Li Mu didn't see a few people in this carriage, but several more came up. This turned the already crowded carriage into a can. Li Mu didn't pay attention to it for a moment, and as soon as the tense body loosened, the whole body hit the girl firmly.
"Oh, what are you doing, you?" was slammed into it, and the girl was also shocked, and quickly turned her head to look at Li Mu.
This turn of his head suddenly made Li Mu's heart tremble and cold sweat flowed, and he said vigorously that he was not. The girl saw that Li Mu was so sincere, so she didn't pursue it. This made Li Mu's heart settle down a lot, thinking about the scene that the girl suddenly looked back on just now, fortunately, Li Mu didn't eat breakfast in the morning, otherwise he might have vomited. I've always heard about a back killer, but now Li Mu finally saw it. People say that the face of an angel is the body of a devil, but this is indeed the figure of a devil, and there is no need to keep the face of the devil in its original flavor.
I took a few deep breaths of the turbid air in the carriage to calm myself, and the smell of sandalwood in my nose calmed my mind for a while. Looking around, I found that a Taoist priest came up in the carriage at some point, and I saw that this Taoist priest was handsome and young, and he was about 20 years old. He wears a black robe common to Taoist priests, with a bun on top of his head and a hairpin diagonally inserted on it. The image of the whole person is similar to that in film and television dramas, but the cheongsam looks a little older, and it is estimated that it has been washed many times.
At this time, the Taoist priest was staring at Li Mu, and when he saw Li Mu looking at him, he also smiled slightly and then moved towards him. I didn't see any movement from the Taoist priest, but he quickly squeezed through the crowd and walked to Li Mu.
"Is the donor safe?"
"Huh?" Seeing that the young Taoist priest was making a joke of himself and then came out of nowhere, Li Mu was also stunned for a while.
The Taoist priest didn't care about Li Mu's expression, and continued to say: "Donor, I see that your Yin Hall is black, your eyes are dull, and your lips and tongue are cracked, this is a bad omen!" ”
"Gotta get it, fierce hairy Zhao, don't fix these three-year-old children, what kind of Yintang is black, your whole family is black. This is caused by dark circles and lack of sleep, do you know common sense! As soon as he heard the Taoist priest say that he had any bad signs, Li Mu became angry immediately. Besides, if you want to cheat money, you have to use some fresh words, which is not professional at all.
"No, no, no, do you think there's anything wrong with the donor lately?" The attitude towards Li Mu is bad, and the Taoist priest is still tepid.
"You've seen too much of Tianlong Babu, it's not either, you think you're different."
"Tianshan Road has arrived, please get off the train on the right side." Just when Li Mu was complaining about the Taoist priest's lame lines, the subway broadcasting machinery reported the name of the station. Li Mu, who originally wanted to be sarcastic, immediately exploded when he heard it, "It's over, I've sat down, I'm afraid I'm going to be late." ”
When the car door opened, Li Mu didn't care about the Taoist priest or the monk, and hurriedly rushed to the subway that was driving in the opposite direction, and now he only hoped that he would not be late today.
"Donor, it's time to believe in the poor way." Just when Li Mu was still worrying about whether he would be late today, the Taoist priest appeared beside him again.
"I'll go, you still have to play. I don't care if you are a CCTV or a satellite TV channel, please go back to your own way, okay, don't step on my single-plank bridge. Li Mu no longer has the mood and energy to entangle with the Taoist priest.
"Donor, I'm saving you, I don't know how you can believe?"
Are crooks so patient these days? Li Mu was really speechless for a tendon of the Taoist priest, and seeing the curious glances of others in the subway, Li Mu now just wanted to find a crack to drill into.
"Donor? Donor? The young Taoist priest still shouted Li Mu persistently.
"Ah~~~!" Finally waited for the subway to arrive at the station, Li Mu hurriedly shouted and rushed out of the door. Pedestrians on the road gave way one after another when they saw this, and it is estimated that everyone was thinking that they had encountered a neurotic disorder early in the morning, which was really unlucky.
Seeing that the exit gate was in front of him, Li Mu hurriedly quickened his pace and rushed over, but suddenly he was dragged by someone, and when he looked back, he was still the Taoist priest.
"Master, I can't earn a few dollars a month, so just let me go." At this time, Li Mu was really a little crying without tears.
As soon as he heard Li Mu say this, the Taoist priest's face immediately straightened, and he said in a serious voice: "First of all, Poor Dao is just a Taoist priest and not a master, and besides, I am not helping you for money. ”
Suddenly seeing the young Taoist priest so serious, Li Mu was also stunned, but he still said with a little pleading: "Okay master, if you really want to help me, let me go, otherwise I will lose my job." If you lose your job, you lose your money, and if you lose your money, you lose your life. Hearing that he would lose his life, the Taoist priest was also shocked in his heart, and his hand couldn't help but loosen.
If you don't run now, when? Li Mu immediately raised his feet and ran.
"Wait!"
Li Mu, who had already run a few steps, had already become a frightened bird, and when he suddenly heard the shouts of the Taoist priest, he naturally heard it at his feet, but he secretly scolded himself in his heart why he had to stop.
"Donor, here is a business card of mine, if you need it, you can come to the address of the book to find me." As he spoke, the Taoist priest took out a somewhat crumpled piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Li Mu. Li Mu hurriedly put it in his bag without looking at it, and then rushed to the gate without looking back.
After a crisp sound of "dripping ......", Li Mu pushed open the wheel at the gate and stepped out.
"Hey, what did the donor brush just now?"
Before he could walk away, Li Mu heard the figure of the Taoist priest coming from the gate again. When I turned my head, I found that the Taoist priest was looking at the gate with a blank face. Seeing this, Li Mu suddenly showed a wicked smile on his face, and hurriedly shouted loudly: "Uncle policeman, come on, there is a cosplay player here who wants a set of tickets." ”
Sure enough, Li Mu shouted and saw a policeman hurriedly running over and taking the Taoist priest away, but Li Mu couldn't bear it the moment he saw the Taoist priest being taken away, but this emotion was quickly replaced by the anxiety of being late.
When the panting Li Mu arrived at the company, he was still late, and he was greeted by the gloomy face of the department boss and a cold sentence.
"Come to my office later!"
Hearing this, Li Mu sat on the chair like a deflated ball, and the colleagues around him cast you begging for a blessing.
Li Mu, who came into the office hard, was scolded by the boss for slashing his head and covering his face, and his colleagues could even see through the glass ball that the boss's spit was about to drown Li Mu. When the fat man Zheng Liang saw Li Mu's tragic condition, he immediately drew a cross on his chest with his hand, and prayed in a low voice. "Hallelujah."
